she told them "It is thoroughly dis

who landed somewhere near Goa about
the year 1879. and spent forty years in
Jesuit missionary work in Goa and the

In his capacity as the author of this

Consider Himself Dead.

Mr.. L., a good-nathred German, was
the proprietor of a clothing business in
a country town. He had in his en-
ploy one John S., whom he had adj
vanced from cash hoy to head clerk.
Since his promotion John had several
times asked for an increase OF salary,
and each time his request had been
granted. One morning he again ap-
peared at the old merchants desk
with another request for an increase
OF $40 a month.

kind OF public invitation. For Jacob
Van Ariens was one Of guild Of
wealthy merchants. and they were at
their shop doors to express their
sympathy by lifted hats and smiling
faces; while the women looked from
every window, and the little children
followed. their treble voices heralding
and acclaiming the beautiful bride.
Then came the breakfast and the
health drinking and the speech
making and the rather sadder drive
To the wharf at which lay La Belle
France. Then the anchor was lifted,
the cable Ioosened, and with every
sail set La Belle France went dancing
down the river on the tide-top to the
open set.
Van Ariens and his son Rem turned
silently away. "A great and evident
depression had suddenly taken the
place of their assumed satisfaction.
They had outworn emotion and knew
instinctiVely that some common duty
was the best restorer The same feel

and old, went back to their ledgers

sense Of lassitude and detection.
Peter had nearly feached his own
house when he met Doctor Moran.

pressed. He looked at his friend

Our government gives each one a
small pension which helps them

they served in the Confederate

hardest-fought battles and were
