Martins Revenge.

A correspondent tells the story Of
two house martins nests built against
an attic window of farm, to which
the birds came for several successive
years. Last spring, however, before
they arrived, a sparrow took up her
abode in one of the nests.
Shortly after the martins returned
as usual, and one day the farm people
noticed that the hole of the nest
which the sparrow occupied had been
blocked up. Next morning a boy
climbed up to ascertain the meaning
of this, and not finding any outlet
broke away part Of the nest, to find
the poor little sparrow dead on her
eggs.
The house martins had walled her
up for daring to take possession Of
their house.-Country Life.

WHEN MONEY WAS SCARCE


However scarce money may be at
times at the present" said an old Mis-
sourian, "the oldest inhabitants will
recall when 1t was almost unobtain-
able and other commodities had to be
used as media of exchange. The
VOLTS scalp was worth dollar be-
cause 1t was state bounty upon the
death of wolf, and venison hams
and deer skins also had a purchasing
value. Skins of the fur bearers were
likewise abundant and valuable. When
the first sheriff of Audrain county, in
1887, went to Jefferson City to deliver
the county revenue, he met an old
friend on the way who, needing
money, wanted to borrow the actual
coin part of the county's revenue. The
good-hearted sheriff lent it to him and
went on to the capital and delivered
only the scalps. BY the time of the
next settlement the loan was repaid
and the sheriff made his next settle
ment complete. No note or other OBJ
legation than the mere word was
given. "-Columbia Herald.

humorous and pathetic bits of prose
and verse that have been preserved
in this wonderful volume. Some books
have great literary value, some have
historical significance, but Heart
