it is their many friends from whom

"The life is not a pastoral dream

will be fewer tramps hanging around

Sand-StorIns.

AS would be inferred from its tenn
perature the desert is land of fear
full winds. When that volume of hot
air rises by it's own lightness, other
air from the surrounding world must
rush in to take it's place; and as the
new ocean of atmosphere, greater than
than the Mediterranean, pours in
enormous waves into it's desert bed
such winds result as few Leople in
fertile lands ever dream Of.

nay, sometimes they are even blown

Buffers Obstinacy.

A story told to illustrate the charac.
ter of Sir Redvers Butler is worth re-
peating. During the last Nile cam
paign, while on board river steamer
descending some dangerous water in
one Of the higher cataracts, Sir Red
vers entered into discussion with
Lord Charles Beresford as to the
proper channel that should be taken.
Each obstinately defended his own
course, but in the end that which Sir
Redvers recommended was adopted,
with the result that the steamer got
through without accident. "You see I
was right" exclaimed Sir Redvers,
triumphantly; mine was the proper
channel" THAT was mine, too,"
coolly replied Lord Charles. IL only
recommended the other because
knew you would go against whatever
I said"

When Stonewali jackson Was n Boy.

When Stonewall jackson Was n Boy.
At the "Old Cummins Jackson
Mills" on the West Fork river, in what
is now West Virginia, was living 81
years ago a healthy boy, who had very
definite IDEAS of honor and strong
sense of right Little Tom Jackson,
like a good many other boys, was fond
of fishing, and equally fond of selling
his fish whenever he could find GUS
toners.
In the village of Weston, three miles
above the Mills, Conrad Kerster kept
a small store and market. He had
agreed with the boy to give him 50
cents for every pike foot or more
in length that he caught in the mill
pond.
The boy was only ten years old, but
he made the contract in good faith,
and, as the sequel showed, knew
how to keep 1t.
AS time went on, good many 12-
inch pike were delivered at the market
with mutual satisfaction to both par
ties to the trade. One day the boy
was seen tugging through the village
an enormous fish that almost dragged
on the ground. 1t was two inches over
a yard long. Col. Talbot, a gentle
man who knew the young fisherman
very we'll, hailed him, and comph-
mented him on his success.
"a noble fish, Tom! Where are
you going with it? want to buy it."
Its sold to Mr.. Kerster," said the
boy, without stopping.
THAT can't ye. He hasn't seen it.
Say, I'll give you dollar for it"
81 tell you it's sold. 'Tisn't mine.'
whats Kerster going to give you
| for it?'
Fifty cents" shouted Tom, still
keeping on his way.
The colonel called after him, It'll
give you a dollar and quarter!"
Tom turned moment with an indig-
nant look and replied, IF you get
any of this pike you'll have to get it
of Mr. Kerster." And on he went,
bending under his load till he reached
| the store.
Mr.. Kerster was astonished. Fifty
cents isn't enough for that fish," he
said. 81 shall have to give you dol
| lar"
mo, sir, it's yours at so cents" in
sisted Tom. 'Ill not take any more.
You've been kind enough to pay me for
some that were pretty short" And %
cents was the price paid for the big
pike.
This story Mr.. Kerster himself, In
his old age, gave to his nephew, Judge
McWhorter, who gave it to the Chica-
go Standard.
The fine conscience and keen sense
| of honor that ruled the boy fixed the
habit of Ills lifetime.
The name by which he became
known to the world was "Stonewal
Jackson"

The Giant Did Not Walt.

In the Irish legend, Fin MacCool
was the famous giant who built the
causeway from Ireland to Staffa IL
order that his Scotch rival-who de-
sired to give him beating, but who
objected to getting his feet wet
might walk across to the green isle
dry-shod. Few persons, however, ap-
pear to be familiar with the following
legend, which is told by the peasants
in certain districts, but which, like
most of the unwritten folklore OF Erin,
is fast passing out of existence:
When Fin MacCool had completed
the causeway he caught glimpse OF
his formidable rival in the distance,
which convinced him that the tales
he had heard concerning him were not
exaggerated. With much trepidation
Fin strobe rapidly back to Ireland and
confessed to his wife that, for the first
time in his life he feared he was IN
imminent danger of receiving an lg-
nominous beating.
The giants wife, who was inordin'
ately proud of her husband and OF his
farfamed prowess, listened silently
to his description of the mighty
Scotch giant, then said, reassuringly:
"Just leave this matter to me, Fin
acushla, and III warrant the Scotch
man will go back over the causeWay
quicker than he came, and will never
trouble you again"
Fin, who was more frightened than
he cared to own, was glad to accept
his wife's profered assistance, and to
trust to her ingenuity to thwart his
rival. There was no time to lose, 10:
the ponderous footsteps of the Scotch
man were already heard resoundlng
along the causeway. With as much
despatch as her portliness of person
would permit, the giantess dressed Fin
in baby garments Of monstrous dlmen'
sions. and bade him lie upon his bed In
apparent helplessness. With pleas
ant smile of welcome and a warning
gesture she then met the Scotch giant,
as he approached, swinging his heavy
club.
please don't wake the baby" she
pleaded. "He is very cross and un-
manageable when his sleep is broken y
Then she added: II expect Fin home
at any moment; he will be glad to see
you. Won't you come in and look at
the baby while you wait for him"
The Scotch giant, somewhat sur
rrised to find mis- rivals wife so agree
able. accepted her invitation good
naturally, and tried to make as little
noise as possible with his immense
feet. as he followed her to the cham
Der where Fin lay in his disguise,
feigning slumber.
The Scotchman did not dare to ap'
proach the bed lest he should disturb
the sleeping "child," but standing at
the threshold. he assured the proud
mother, in awestruck tones, that he
had never seen so fine child before,
then hastily took his leave, regrettlns
that urgent business in Scotland re-
manded his immediate attention, aid

longer in order to make the acqua:a-

A Universal Fairy Story.

The English version of Cinderella
came from the French version about
$40 years ago, and has remained un
changed ever since. In translating
the French story into English a mis-
take was made which gives us tie
second title of the story, "or the little
glass slipper" In the French the
fateful slipper was Of fur-"vair,' .
which the translator rendered as if u
were "verre"-glass. This would seem
to indicate that the story first was rem
dered into English by some one who
had it by word of mouth, the pronun-
citation of "vair" and "verre" being
similar enough to account for the
mistake.
The story IS said to have originated
in India between three and four thou
san1 years ago, and from there to
have spread to all parts Of the world.
Certain it is that we find it well known
in Egypt, where it was told Of Rho
6opis and Psammetichus in the sixth
century before christ.
Almost the only variation which the
story of Cinderella has in the various
languages is in regard to the interest,"
ing question of how the girl got her
fine clothes to go to the ball. We
know, of course, that it was the Fairy
Godmother VINO supplied them to her.
but in some benighted nations, they
ascribe the outfit to other sources.
Thus the children of Sweden are told
that a bear was the benefactor; in Den
mark it is said to have been a wolf;
the Italians tell their children that it
was fish that brought the ball costume
end jewels, while in Hungary the ben
efactor is said to have been toal.
Among the Slavs it was mouse, and
among the Russians it was a pair OF
doves. All of which is absurd. 1t was
the Fairy Godmother for a thousand
dollars; any Yankee child can tell you
that. What would a bird, fish or an
animal know about the proper costume
for a ball at the Princes palace?
Whereas it is a well-known fact that
Fairy Godmothers are right up to date,
and when they furnish you with any
thing you can be Iretty sure 1t Is the
latest thing out in a "swagger" way.
It is said that the story of CinIer-
ella has been found in the forests of
Africa, where the natives, before the
white man went into the country, had
no knowledge of clothing beyond a
sweet smile, and never had seen slip
pers of glass or any other kind. How
it came to pass that in places so dis
tant from each other the same tale
exists and has existed for centuries is
a mystery. Certainly the universally
of Cinderella is a singular and most
interesting fact which might repay
study.-New York Press.

To see the baby Rose.
The butterfly has seen it;
The swallow, too, has passed;
So come and pay visit;

And on the yellow pathway
Their gentle shadows threw;
And there the baby blossom
In crimson beauty glows,
While sky and earth make happy
