to take the room and bed prepared for

loud words.
Looking across the way, he saw a

of two soldiers to set him on his feet

well to live to celebrate the sixtieth

which are now under way. His posi-

that the dual kingdom will be no more.

A PumpkIn-Pie Vision.

Old Doddridge ate his frugal lunch
OF milk and pumpkin pie,
And fell to musing, as he ate,
OF days that were gone by.
The pie rich aroma sent
To his reflective brain,
And, oh! the pictures it called up
And old-time country lane.
An old-time country lane, with grass
All struggling by the side:
A boy, who trudged along the path,
With basket at his side
A jolly boy, whose eyes were keen,
Who felt inclined to sing,
And saw the glory of the fall,
And the fun in everything.
And then he saw comely girl,
With cheeks of honest red,
Who smiled at him with sunny glance
And tossed her shapely head.
He saw the old school house again
And heard the teacher speak;
And on the roads of frozen snow
He heard the wagons creak.
He saw the shellbark hickory tree;
He saw the kitchen door;
He saw the pantry shelves again
With pumpkin pies galore;
He shifted the tang of cider sweet
The bloom of days gone by
And then old Doddridge wakened up
And ate his pumpkin pie.

that he, not the man before him, was

of generosity come TO him. But he
said only, III talk to the boys moth
err
I'm the end ii was arranged as Tur
ner had suggested. though sOt without
many tears from the mother, and
many sighs from the father. For, in
spite of Turner's assurances it did
seem as if they were selling their
child.
For some time all went well and
the interest was paid regularly. Then
another little Larkson appeared upon
the scene, typhoid fever attacked the
two oldest children. and finally two
years had elapsed since any interest
had been paid on the strange mort
gage.
Roy was Z years old when Turner
foreclosed and took the boy to live
with him. BY this time the Larksons
had become accustomed to the idea,
they saw they never could pay their
debt in any other way and knew,
moreover, that it was doubtless for
tunate thing for the boy to have won
the love of this man who could do so
much for him. And really, it was not
so very hard to bear, after all. Roy
was at home as much as ever the only
difference being that at meal times
and at night he went across the road.
His mother cared for his clothes as
usual, but Turner insisted on paying
her for it.
"A change had geen gradually com
ing over Hod Turner. The child's love
seemed to have made another man of
him and he was now as genial as he
had formerly been gruff. He lived in
the boy, made plans for his future
and spoke OF him as his son. As for
Roy. he was quite contented and hap
py with the new order of things.
"One night the climax of the Lark
sons troubles came. There was a cry
or fire" that awoke Turner and Roy
across the road. How the fire had
started no one knew. but before it was
discovered it gained such headway
that there was barely time for all the
family to escape when. amid walls of
grief and dismay, the roof fell Not a
thing was saved.
"Then Hod Turner gave proof of the
change wrought in his character. He
opened wide his big house and took
in the homeless family. to stay until
they could find some other home.
"Mr. LarksOn at once sought anoth-
er farm to rent without success. As
the weeks went on, Turner found that
the merry family of children bright
ened up his gloomy house amazingly.
Mrs. Larkson's cooking was better
than his own, and Larkson had more
practical ideas Of farming than his
foreman had, and so-well, as the vii
lage wag put it, Turner might as
well have had a mortgage on the whole
family
"Turner-Hod no longer, but by
some indefinable change of feeling, Mr.
Horace Turner to the whole village
lived to a good old age with his adopt.
ed family, and when at last he died NO
one was surprised to find Roy, little
Roy no longer, his sole heir"

mended, the story was told and It was

The Moon Uninhabitcd,

The moon being much the nearest
TO us of all the heavenly bodies, we
can pronounce more definitely in its
case than in any other. We know
that neither air nor water exists on
the moon in quantities sufficient %
be perceived by the most delicate
tests at our command. 1t is certain
that the moons atmosphere, if any
exists, is less than the thousandth
part of the density of that around
us. The vacuum is greater than any
ordinary air pump is capable of pro-
ducing. We can hardly suppose that
so small quantity of air could be of
any benefit whatever in sustaining
life; an animal that could get along
with so little could get along
on none at all.
But the proof of the absence of
life Is yet stronger when we consider
the results of actual telescope OBJ
seryaton. An object such as an or
dinary city block could be detected
on the moon. If anything like vege-
tation were present on its surface
we should see the changes which it
would undergo in the course of a
month, during one portion of which
it would be exposed to the rays of
the unclouded sun and during an
other to the intense cold of space
