A "Reminiscences Of IN. Old man.c.

My father was one of tho village
doctors and had sent me with
package of medicine FOR Mrs. Hgw-
thorne when Una was born at the
Old Manse. I remember standing
tiptoe before the ancient door at the
end of the long avenue of half dead
ash troes and just managing To
reach the ponderous iron knocker.
Mr.. Hawthorne himself opened the
door, and had finished my crrand
and was turning away when no
said TO me, "WOuldn't the doctors
little girl like to see the new babyf"
OF course the doctor little girl"
was crazy to Soc anything that was
new--and of all things now II new
baby-so he led me up the aged
stairs; then, asking me to wait a
moment, disappeared through a
door that stood ajar. Very soon he
reappeared with tho tiniest morsel
of humanity, as it seemed TO me,
that / had over seen, in his long,
strong arms.
While was admiring the baby,
even then named Una, Mrs. Haw-
thorne, from and inner room, called
me to come and see her. The Cos
sips of the day in Concord called
Mrs. Hawthorne "homely" and
plain, but certainly her room
was not. Being an artist, she had
done what, though common enough
now, was then very rare-painted
her furniture herself. On the head
board of the bed she had copied
Guido's Aurora, and at the foot
what she called one of Raphacl's
Hours" while on the washstand
was Venus rising from the sea, and
on the dressing table Correggio's
"Cupids. l was only little girl
at the time, and as it was my first
conscious acquaintance with art it
produced an effect on my mind that
has been ineffaceable.- Mrs. A. S.
Doron in Bookman.

Creatures OF Habit,

See those two persons sitting
near the door in the street carr
One is an elderly washwoman.
The other looks as IL he might be
a clerk pertaining to the ribbon
counter of a dry goods store.
They are strangers to each other
They have never met before.
There are no ties of sympathy or
consanguinity between them.
They have nothing in common.
Yet they are sitting very close to-
gether.
This Is because tho car is crowded
But the car is gradually emptying
itself.
1t Is not nearly as full as it was a
little while ago.
The young man and the elderly
waSherwoman, however, are still
damned in the corner near the door.
Most of the passengers have got
out.
And now the young man and the
elderly washcrwoman, whose des-
tination appears to be the remotest
suburb, are the only ones remain
ing.
She is still jammed into the cor
ner.
The young man has not budged
the smallest fraction of an inch.
They are both uncomfortable
crowded.
But they do not appear to know
how to help themselves.
Why is thiss
Inertia may account for 1t.
And it may be simply laziness.
Nobody can tell.
But everybody acts just that way
in a street car.--Chicago Tribune.

HCEiliatipn.

An old lady once had a cat of
which she was very fond. One day
she missed her pet, and on making
inquiries she heard that neighbor
had killed it After little meriita-
ton she hit upon a way to avenge
herself.
She bought some mousetraps and,
having caught about so mice alive,
put them into n large box, which
she took to the unsuspecting neigh
Dor. He, thinking it was quite safe,
took it in
When he opened it, he was horri-
fled to sec II swarm of mice scatter
in every direction, while at the bot
tom of tho box he found note con
tanning these words:
You killed my cat, and now
have the pleasure of sending you II
few of my mice "-London Tit-Bits.

EnectkNe PRAYER

A pretty anecdote is rotated of a
child who was greatly pertmbed by
the discovery that her brothers had
set traps to catch birds. Questioned
as to what she had done in the mat
ter, she replied, II prayed that the
traps might not catch the birds. "
Anything elsef" Yes" she said
II then prayed that God would pre-.
vent the birds getting into the
traps" And, as if to illustrate the
doctrine of faith and works, she went
and kicked the traps all to pieces
