before bright blazing fire in her own lit
tie parlor Her thoughts had gone out on
many errands of kindness as she sat
there in the shadowy twilight. Moth
ing unusual for her. however, for her
life was living epistle that could be
read of all men, it was so humble, quiet,
holy, Christ-like. She loved to sit thus
in the twilight and plan her little love
crrands, and think how many poor
would be likely TO need her porridge the
next day, how many little shiyering
children she would meet and relieve, or
what deed of kindness she could do to
bring sinners into the better way. For
Aunty Morton had grown wise in her
intercourse with the world. She had
found that whatever the difficulty of
understanding words, deeds are almost
always ineligible, and she revealed
her soul in inarticulate speech as an
earnest. pure and truthful life. This
was a language which the profoundest
admired and the simplest could appre-
ciate. Her pastors most elaborate dis
course on sanctihcation proved tame
and ineffective in comparison with the
cloquence OF this woman's humble and
holy walk VIII God.
Many were Aunty Morton's thoughts
on the evening we introduce her to the
reader. The minister had given notice
that in two weeks would be Thanks
giving service. She wondered why peo-
pic should have to be reminded TO give
thanks. Her life was one continual
song of thanksgiving. 1t would have
been in accordance with her idea of
many things If the president and gov
errors should say in the beginning of
each year; let the present be year
Of continual thanksgiving. inasmuch as
the bountiful blessing of basket and
store is not given an withdrawn in a
day"
Then the minister had made a re-
quest that all his Pensioners should
come TO church that day, especially
those who were sometimes remiss in
their attendance, and he. with the
Lords help, would endeavor to hand
forth convenient food for them. There
vas one thing the minister said that
seemed to have a significance for her.
and she dwelt long upon it in thought:
"There are many life errors that can be
more easily righted, more lasting rec
cnciliations made at this time of cele-
brating mercies than at any other;
perhaps caused by the hallowed assOci-
atoms that cluster around the day.
Then let each Of ms look well about us
and see if we cannot do something to
make the world better"
Now. Aunty Morton had been think
ing about Farmer Granville, q neigh
bor. who. because his daughter would
not marry the man he intended she
should, and did marry the man be in
tended she should not. had In an angry
moment forbidden her to come again
under his roof. and also refused her
any communication whatever with her
mother and sister. Farmer Granville
was naturally a kind man. and when
the paroxysm Of anger had subsided he
would have been glad had he not said
any such thing, but his pride kept him
from recalling his daughter and aC'
Lnowledginc her husband as o son
Thus things had gone on. aud 30 had
now been SIX years since DR.. Nellman.

One OF the funniest things that has hap
pened in this campaign is the sudden and
complete reversal OF the Bryan party of
Its attitude toward the opinion OF Europe
an authorities upon the financial question.
In the beginning of the canvass the very
mention OF the views OF any European
'financ.er or economist. however eminent
or learned, was met with scornful laugh
ter. Wv hat have we 10 do with Europe ?"
said Mr.. Bryan and the rest OF the Pop
uhsts. 1T is plain enough what these
people want. They are trying 10 saddle
upon US the execrabie gold standard sys-
tenn which works 10 their benefit. Their
advice is OF all things most 10 be feared
and rejected" Day after day the Populisr
candidate for the presidency has been ask
Ing his audience II this country IL not
great enough 10 manage its own affairs
and II any citizen Is mean enough 10 ask
anss5oGy's opinion In Europe.
Now comes a change IN the tenor of
these addresses. At almost every hating
place Ia his tour AR. Bryan faunts before
his audience the opinion OF Prince Bis
marck. II matters nothing TO him that
this man is one OF the most autocratsc In
diviiuais in one Of the most autocratic
governments in Europe. II matters moth
ing 20 him that even Bismarck believes
only in international bi-me;ali.sm, and Is
willing thar the United States should try
the experiment and take the chances. The
mere fact that he can tack the name Of
an eminent man 10 the free coinage ar
gumcnt. and thus assume for X a title
10 respe~e; bility Ellis his soul with de-
hight and hansshes those fears or foreign
domination that have haunted him all
