For you will know how all the time shs
is thinking of the awful night when
they fed through the storm until flight
was no longer possible, and then hud-
died 10 the open plain, handful Of
refugees. in the warpath Of the Sioux.
You will not wish these blue eyes to see
again, by terrifying bursts Of lightning,
that set the world on fire. that rain
driven, pitiless prairie, the circle OF open
wagons, the towering form Of Gustav
Kestner, the guard who rode round and
round the little camp the long night
through.
Yet what are words? There is no
way to put aside the living reminder
poor, scared, wild Sophie, who for seven
years after that night. without speech
or natural notion, rocked herself and
turned scared eyes upon everything
around her. The days and nights the
little German wife and mother has spent
by our turbulent rivsr,-what days and
nights they have been! Yet even those
terrible memories bring back the strong
Gustav, the master of the stone house
by the river. No burden could still be
80 heavy, when his strong shoulder was
put to il. Men who came to the forge
by the stone house tell yet how he was
the tallest man in the county, and how
no one knew horses foot 80 we'll. You
cannot but think of those broad shout
ders as you look at the narrow, sloping
ones Of the Muetterchen. Narrower and
more bent they are, for the fall from
high NOW that crushed one OF them, in
the days when field work for the peas
ant maedchen had some times other re-
wards than the twenty thalers per year.
As the air grows cool. and Karl puts
away his banjo and Freda stands in the
deep doorway to say goodbye, you
look at the stone house on it's knoll in
the river bend and think how many
hands have been lifted to stay its stones
ia the old quarry whence Gustav bore
them here to echo the roar of the rain
swollen waters. and the clang of the
anvil by tina door. The German recruit

century ago. in Coblentz by the Rhine.
1t was much she thought of America,
as her small arms ached with the toll Of
harvest and her heart ached for the
fater and mutter aud Geschwister-all
gone to the new country across the sea.
All, every one but the small Gertrud,
left behind that her passage money
might be saved to start the new home
in the new land. 1t would not be long
where corn grew like grass. and horses
ran free for the catching, and no one
was hungry,-not long before money
would come from across the ocean to
take Gertrud, too. Before two harvests
letter came that told Of sixty bright
thalers noarded by faeterchen and Ger :
hardt and Karl. A long letter wherein
Karl described the big pfug drawn by
white horses, the plowshare with the
wheel that was knife keen on it's edge,
and cut down through thick matted
soil ''lIke many thicknesses of carpet
-loLg strips further than all the farms
of Coblentz, laid end to end. This was
the good machine that had earned
much of Gertrud's passage money.
But the money did not come. 1t was
very safe in the little blre mug by the
Bible on Mutter Kestner's shelf. Who
could tell whether it would ever reach
Gertrud il trusted 10 the long journey

must have earned half enough to pay
the single fare for which the company
would bring her AT the way. Would it
not be better to earn the rest by another
harvest, and have the bright thalers
safe against tie wedding day?

vests at twenty thslers the year, and
guarded the bright pieces so we'll that

CLEAR, WHITE SKINS.
BY Harriet Hubbard Aver.

The following is a splendid formula
for liquid whitening: One quart wa
ter previously boiled and strained);
alcohol, 80 drops: oxide OF zinc, ]
ounce; bichloride OF mercury, grains;
glycerine, 20 drops.
Take four ounces OF the water and
heat 1t to boiling; dissolve the bichlo-
ride Of mercury in this hot water, and
add the alcohol. Mix the zinc and gly-
cerine together in a bowl; pour the
larger portion Of the quart Of water in;
stir; then add all the diluted biohlo-
ride of mercury and alcohol. Bottle,
and shake always before using. Apply
the liquid with a soft small velvet
sponge.
A good spring medicine for clearing
the skin Is sulphur and molasses. Get
five cents worth of sulphur precipitate.
Put two teaspoonfuls in the bottom of
a glass; see that there are no Jumps
in it; pour six teaspoonfuls OF syrup
or molasses on the sulphur and stir 1t;
take one teaspoonful Of the mixture
before breakfast and one Just before
going to bed for three days; omit for
three days. Repeat and omit for three
days until you have taken the prepara-
ton for nine days.
If. as well as being shiny, the skin
appears greasy also, you cannot do
better than battle 1t twice a day with
lotion made up Of: Suiphate of zinc.
30 drains; eau de Cologne, 1 ounce; rose
water, ounces.
Use a little good powder, and then
rub gently with a piece of ohamois
leather; this will remove the appear
ance Of shininess quicker than any
thing. Do not take food that is highly
seasoned. Eat all such things as you
can the most easily digest, and have
them plain and unseasoned.
