But Salina was too prompt for them
Before they could escape she had Sc

solid shutters of its solitary window.
And then she rushed to the house and
ran shrieking up the stairway to where
Abby and Fanny, with shivering form,
stood on the landing
"Salina, what is it, cried Fanny.
"What is it, Salna?' reiterated

"Well, Inever!" said Salina. II do
b'lieve he's saved our lives; they
thought he was alive and was half
scared to death. Now I'm goin to
ring the big bell for help"
And rusty bell, which had hung
out ofthe window for half hundred
years, ready to be rung in some such
possible emergency as this, presently
flung forth its deep-toned warning in
the silence of the November night,
pulled by Salinas energetic arms.
Aid arrived in marvelously short
period of time. The two burglars
were arrested and put in safe keeping
until they could be committed to pris-
on. Old Squire Milton, who was more
amazed than any one else at the novel
accomplishment developed by his hired
man, remained at the lonely house all
night, to protect the two young artists
and laughed very heartily when he saw
the naval dummy which had served so
good turn in frightening off the
cowardly thieves.
George Clifford resolved not to
leave his sisters alone again until the
removal to the New York fat was an
accomplished fact. As for Salina, she
had now valid excuse to traverse the
whole house with lantern two Or
three times a night whenever she
pleased, and set up watch dog and
burglar alarm.

Salina, "and there's no tellin' when it

Bargains y
BY VI. MACL. Ii.

My country cousin had come to see
the city and study its ways; therefore
thought could begin her course Of
instruction in no better way than by
taking her down to Catchem q
Fleecem S. who were then conducting
one Of their periodical slaughter sales.
We arrived at the shop about ten
minutes before it opened, to find the
sidewalk blocked by a surging mass Of
eager, impatient women. Occasionally
a belated bargain-hunter would come
hurrying down the street, and, ignor
ing the established rule of 'first come
first served,' would insidiously wriggle
herself through the crowd, despite the
wrathful protests that accompanied
her slow, but certain, progress.
Suddenly the great clock delivered
itself of eight loud, solemn strokes.
A thrill passed through the waiting
throng. As the last echo died away,
the great door flew open, and, with a
rush, smiling the air like veteran war;
horses, the multitude-I had almost
said mob-hurlcd itself into the build

The salespcople sink mystcrionsly

GOOD THINGS TO LEARN.

Learn to attend strictly to your own
business. Very important point.
Learn to stop croaking. If you
cannot see any good in this world,
keep the bad to yourself.
Learn how to tell good story. 4
well-told story is as welcome as a sun
beam in sick room.
Learn to keep your own troubles to
yourself. The world is too busy to
care for your ills and sorrows.
Learn to greet your friends with

in their own hearts to be bothered
with any of yours.

A bill will be introduced in the Massa- chusetts Legislature providing that hereafter no person shall be tried for contempt of court committed outside the court, or in reference to one of its processes, except by indictment and trial, and establishing proper and req sonable penalties.
 B. Fay Mills is so greatly stirred up over the punishment of Editor Wardner for contempt that he writes to the Bos ton Transcript: "If judge can legal ly and without responsibility to any other court imprison citizen guilty of no more serious offense than is Mir Wardner, then such legal power and it's exercise is a menace to American liberty more dangerous than any pre- rogative of the monarchies of Europe. ,"
 Editor Wardner's offense consisted of criticising the action of the court on its action regarding the railroad disaster at Sharon, Mass.
