 served the Ulster county, New York, Bible society in a re-supply of the county with the Holy Scriptures. Tn 1858 I was appointed by Presiding Elder Albert Nash to the charge of the church at North Madison, Conn.,, New York East conference, and afterwards to the
 charge of the Barkhamsted circuit, re-
 siding at Pleasant Valley. I also
 through that region extensively circu-

 of the southern rebellion, I came to
 New Haven and gave my attention to
 the interest of the Bible cause in the
 city and state and western Massachu- setts, under the auspices of the Ameri- can Bible society and local societies, the late Rev. Hubbard Beebe of New Ha- ven being the state secretary. We were
 the means of furnishing hundreds of destitute families and individuals with the word of God, and also many regi- ments which were leaving for the war; also gathered valuable statistics, a base for future work.
 The 1st of December 1874 I engaged with the Connecticut Temperance union as their secretary for the district of New Haven and vicinity to work out all possible results for the cause of tenn perance. The saloons were systematic ally visited. We were usually received kindly. The city in various divisions was carefully sought out and provided

Still tasting in her mouth the fruit

Some happy bird that built his nest

The Reward OF Giving.

No good deed is ever forgotten.
An incident is related of little girl
whose mother was a sick widow, and
who stopped young man en- the
street and begged him to buy her
chestnuts. He was poor, but could
not withstand her pitiful look. He
handed her a coin and said, 81 cannot
use your chestnuts, but you are wei
come TO this" She thanked him and
then hurried away. Twenty years
passed. The girl grew to womanbood
and became the wife Of a banker.
Passing the library one evening, she
saw a man with her husband whom
she recognized as the man who years
before had been kind to her. When
he had gone, she inquired his errand.
"He came to see if l would give
him a vacant position in the bank. "
"Will you?'

then told him the story Of her poyery
and the mans generosity.

Life OF the Filipino Girl.


The life lived by the FilipinOs is not
an intricate lite, says Ramon Reyes
Lala in the Ledger Monthly, nor is
Philippine etiquette the highly in
volved system that is found in the old
and artificial society Of Western lands.
I DO not know that I can better de-
scribe it than by following society
young lady of Manila through the or
dinary events of one days existence.
1t may interest American women to
know how their sisters beyond the
seas pass their lives.
The day of the fair Filipino is a
long one. With her there Is no lazy
rising to a 9 o'clock coffee and toast.
She is usually up with the sun, not
later than 6, and, if very religious, as
early as I, that she may attend early
mass. Breakfast is set early, about
s o clock. Then come the morning
duties Of the household, sewing wash
ing, cooking, or whatever there may
be, for our young lady is not expected
to spend her days in idleness. The
midday meal is taken at II O'Clock, IN
order that the warmest hours Of the
day may be the hours Of rest. About
two hours are thus spent in the enjoy
ment Of the siesta, when our lady fair
arises, refreshed and ready for the lat
er pleasures of the day.
At o'clock the Afternoon tea is
served. This is light repast, usually
consisting of chocolate, with rice and
cakes, or other simple viands. Then,
at the hour Of $50 or 6 o'clock, the
carriage is brought out and the daily
ride taken to the Luneta, the beauti-
full park on the bay south Of the city.
Here the military band discourses
sweet music every evening, and the
beauty and fashion of Manila meet
and enjoy the evening air and melodi-
Gus strains. Returning from the drive
about seven o'clock, the evening meal,
or supper, comes next in order, after
which our belle of Manila is free for
any mode of spending the evening
hours that may appeal to her per-
haps a friendly visit, trip to the
theatre or opera, or an "at home to
receive callers. Early as she arose,
bedtime often comes late, and no
hours more than nature demands are
spent in the enjoyment Of slumber.
Going to rest, however, is different
there and here. Ladies, even of the
highest social rank, do not sleep in a
bedstead, but prefer the floor, lying
on peate, or mat, which is provided
with long bolster orpillow, and cov-
cred with the conventional mosquito
netting

DOROTHY AND TRUSTY.

Dorthy Kendall whispered.
1t was Wednesday afternoon and
Miss Spencer, the teacher, had been
reading delightful story and had
given her little girls fifteen minutes
to write what they could remember
Of it. Dorothy did not wish to be
disturbed. Trusty ought to have un-
derstood that, she thought, he was
such a scholarly dog. He came to
school regularly with Dorothy and her
little brother, Archie, and sat beside
her seat, which was the last in the
row, never disturbing her while she
was studying. But as soon as she
went forward to recite he would jnmp
into her place and sit there until she
returned, exactly like COMMITTEE
man" When the line was formed to
march out at recess or at the close of
the session, he took his place behind
his little mistress, and Miss Spencer,
who played the piano, said that he
kept perfect time to the mnsic even
in the wag Of his tail. A wise. obe-
dient dog was Trusty Kendall.
Why, then, should he suddenly sit
upright with that keen expression on
his handsome face?
30 dear T. said Dorthy to herself
He's going to bark ; l know he is.
That's Just the way he looks when a
tramp comes to the door. Lie down,
Trustyl" she whispered again.
Behind her was door leading into
a narrow, dark hall through which one
could go to another school-roOm. 1t
led to closet, where the waste paper
box stood, and where old maps and
school furniture were stored.
Il will let Trusty stay in there un-
til school is done, she thought.
So she quietly arose. took hold of
his collar, and stepping to the door.
opened it softly. Trusty gave long
whining growl and shrank back against
her. Dorothy's heart gave one great
throb, and then seemed to stop beat
ing. The hall was full of smoke
She closed the door and stood for
an instant with her hand on the dogs
collar, her poor little brain in a whirl,
and then, as fast as her feet could
carry her, she made her way to the
teachers desk, still holding Trusty,
whose body was quivering with ex-
citement.
Miss Spencer, she whispered, "the
hall is full Of smoke and l think the
house is afre.
The teacher glanced into Dorothy's
white face, turned her own toward the
door, smelled the smoke, clasped her
hands as though to summon all her
strength, and whispered in return:
"Go to Professor Lyon sroom as quick
ly as you can, tell him in whisper
Dorothy, be sure to whisper-then
come back to me.
Some of the children had finished
their writing and saw by the great
clock that the fifteen minutes were
over. They wondered where Dorothy
and Trusty were going-Dorothy,
whose stories were always better than
theirs She would lose her good mark
this time, they signaled to each other.
Miss Spencer turned and smiled
upon them.
1--WE will change the order now and
give you little exercise, she said, and
instantly sat down to the piano.
Bang, bang" Striking the keys
sharply in that way meant Stand in
your seats" another strain, and ey-
cry one faced the door. Then came
the quick, familiar march-quicker
than usual this time-and tramp,
tramp, sounded the little feet down
the aisles, out through the doors, and
down the stairs

sI.oo A YEAR.
Toms Mistake.

On the station platform two men
stood waiting for their train, says
writer in the youths Companion"
Another man, with pick and shovel
on his shoulder, was passing on his
way to work.
He was not more than fifty or fifty
FIVE years old, but his gait was stiff
and labored, and there was pro-
nounced stoOp in the fgure.-His ov-
erals, once brown, were ime-blesched
and faded to a soft "old rose, and
bagged dejectedly at the knees. The
face under the weather. beaten cap
was stolid and listless.
AS he slumped along in his heavy
cowhide boots he apparently embod-
led that most persistent and most pa
thetic figure which medieval Europe
called the serf and more modern Eu-
rope calls the peasant, and the census
enumerator of America today sets
down as "unskilled labor"
As he crossed the track the elder OF
the two men on the platform pointed
him ont to his companion. That
man and were schoolmates lie was
not dull at his books, and ought to
have made a better condition for HIM
self in life.
What's the matter with him ? Does
be drink ?' asked the younger man.
"No. Nothing of that kind has
hindered him. When be was about
fifteen years old, he was offered dol
lar a day to dig cellar. This seemed
large wages to him, and he left school
and took the job. lie was proud of
his size and strength, and this offer
made him feel so Independent that he
rather looked down on the rest of us
boys. He never went back TO school.
"He found work that required no
technical skill, only muscle used un-
der an overseer's direction, and he
kept at it.
81 remember Judge Haines, one of
the school committee, met Tom-his
name is Tom Mahan-and said to him;
My boy, you are making a mistake
and doing a foolish thing. If you
must work, why don't you learn a
trade {?
"I'd have to give my time three or
four years for nothing. What would
be the use ofthat2 I'm getting mans
wages now, said Tom.
Strong? said the Judge. Are
you as strong as one of my horses2
They work for their keep, but ! have
to pay the man that drives them thirty
dollars a month besides his keep, and
the man who shoes them gets three dol
lars a day. II strength counts for 30
much | wonder the horses don t strike
and look for a job laying brick or car
pentering.'
But Tom thought the Judge was
only joking with him. He couldn't
see why he should give his time to
learn a trade or some profitable busi-
ness and work for nothing, as be said
when he could work for wages. and 80
be went his own way"
There are thousands like him, said
the other man. They never learn 10
do and never seem to realize that the
reason the trained blacksmith or the
skilled carpenter gets higher wages
than they do is because he has given
time to learning the use Of his head,
as well as his feet and hands.
"If boys would only keep the inn
portant fact in mind that muscle
mere physical strength-is always one
of the cheapest things in the labor
market, aud that 50 far as the price
is concerned it matters little whether
a man furnishes it or a horse, there
would be fewer men to be classed as
'unskilled labor"
