They hadn't met since the old college
days, ten years before, and, of course.
the benedict insisted that the bachelor
should come home to dinner with him.

And so 1t happened that the bachelor

SHOES FOR HUNTING DOGS.

Dogs wearing canvas shoes startle
eastern men who are hunting prairie
chicken and quail on Nebraska plains.
While the dogs waddle somewhat like
ducks when wearing these shoes. they
manage to comfortably cover a lot of
ground in a day after having been bro

Shoeing the dogs saves their feet from

The supper is over; the hearth is swept; ;
And in the wood fires glow
The children cluster to hear tale
OF that time so long ago.
Life is a stocking" grandma's says,
And yours is just begun,
But l am knitting the toe Of mine,
And my work is almost done.
with merry hearts we begin to knit,
And the rubbing is almost play;
Some are. gay-colored and some are
white,
And some are ashen gray.
" But most are made of many a hue,
With many a stitch set wrong.
And many a row TO be sadly ripped
Ere the whole be fair and strong.
There are long plain spaces without
break
That in youth is hard to bear
And many a weary tear is dropped
As We fashion the heel with care.
% But the saddest, happiest time is that
We court and yet would shun.
When our heavenly father breaks the
thread
And says that our work is done
The children come TO say Good night
With tears in their bright young eyes.
While in grandma's lap. with broken
thread,
The finished stocking lies.

SAILORS IN SMALL BOATS.
ssamen Are Said to Be Helpless with
Little Graft.

seamen Are Said to Be Helpless with
Little Craft.
It is a curious fact that few sea-
men can handle a small boat with fa-
cility. This applies chiefly to the crew
OF sailing craft. as the large steam
ship corporations long ago realized this
falling among sailors and instituted
series Of boat drills on their steam
ships that have been productive OF ex-
cellent results, says Harper's Round
Table. knowledge of the workings OF
small boats is n requisite that every
seaman should possess. and young men
intending to follow the sea for a live
lihood should acquire II before they
tread the decks OF vessel as they
will have but little opportunity after
ward. The wise forethought OF steam
ship corporations IN having their crews
drilled saved many lives at the wreck
OF the steamer Denmark. as something
like 7Si pers0nA were transferred from
her to the Missouri without a single
accident in mid-oc Fan Curing a heavy
swell. II follows theiv.,re. that those
who seek recreation on the water
would do well not to go in any boat
unless II is in charge of an experienced
boatman and is amply supplied with
life preseryers. Boats ought to be bal
lasted with fresh water in small casks
instead OF stones or iron, so that in
the event Of being capsi1ed the bal

his head, a capsize takes piece. the
boat sinks and the chances arc that
