Perry Adams sat in his room pouring over a big book. Every little while he would jct down some passage from the book on a bit of old wrapping paper with a stub Of lead pencil. And as he worked he shivered, for 1t was zero weather without and extremely cold within. There was no artificial heat of any kind in the room. which was almost bare of furniture and showed that the occupants of the house. of which this room was a part. were very poor.
 Occasionally Percy would warm his be- numbed fingers over the little coal ou lamp which sputtered and smoked on the table In front of him. He was wrap ped In a bed quilt against the drafts that came In round the rattlog window and beneath the ill-fttng door which led out of doors.
 Just as the clock was on the point of striking 8 a door which communicated with another room was opened and a pale, sad-faced woman came In, speaking gen tly to Perry.
 Son, here's a cup of hot tea. It will warm you up bit as you work. l wish we could afford to keep a fire in the kitchen. for then you could 90 in there and study of nights. But coal is so dear that we cnn scarcely afford to have enough to keep the stove warm during the day"
 How did you make the tea. mother dear:V Perry asked, taking the cup of stesming beverage and drinking 1t or.
 ''oyer my lamp, dear" replied the mother. 'I held a tin cup of water over the lamp flame till 1t boiled. Then l dropped in a pinch of tea. Is It nice and hot, deari"
 Perry rose from his chair. though 1t was somewhat of an effort 10 do so. wrapped as he was from neck to toe. aud put his arms about the pale little mother. "Yes. mother mine. the tea is excellent" be said in q loving voice. And you're the best mother in the world. Now you'll catch cold if you remain up without fire. so go to bed and keep warm. The fire is all out in the kitchen, isn't itf'
 Yes, an hour ago. and you could put your hand on the stove. But I've been sitting beside 1t doing some mending. have fixed up your coat-darned the broken places and cleaned the collar"

 Perry was out of his quilt and into hls hat and overcoat like a flash. As his home was almost a mile from the town where he must go for the doctor. he de- cided to run with all possible speed and borrow q neighbours horse to ride on the errand. This be did, and was soon going at brisk trot toward the town. A rail- road cut, some 60 feet deep. lay between him and town. and was crossed by means of bridge. Perry was nearing the cut when the sound of a horses hoofs sound ed close behind him. From the sound Perry judged the traveller to be coming at good pace and drew his horses rein, guiding him outside the road to let the coming vehicle pass,
 great black horse, head thrust out, nostrils dilated. neck strained to the ut most tension. dashed past him, dragging a buggy which held only one occupant In an instant Perry saw that the horse was running away and that the driver had lost one of the lines, which was loose ly whipping the ground beside the run ming animal. About an eighth of q mile further on the road turned abruptly to the right. following the line of the rail road cut for a quarter of 6 mile before reaching the bridge. Perry's heart stopped ss he thought of the danger of the rider in that buggy. Suppose the horse should go straight ahead instead of taking the turn to the right! Within 200 feet horse and man would go over the level edge of the cut. landing on the tracks 60 feet

 Why. Doctor Downs!' cried Perry. himself a bit out of breath and glad of . chance to drop on his horse for c min ute. Well. since I've found you here, I'll not have to go into town. The Browns baby has the croup. and was coming to fetch you to do what you can for it."
 wen fI these lines, Perry, and to- gether we'll return to the Browna have a lot to say to you. boy, and I'm blamed if I can find words fine enough to express my gratitude"
 That's sll right, Doctor" said Perry. "I understand how you feel, so we'll let the matter pass. l only did what any one with heart in his breast would have done. You owe me nothing. Doctor"
 But Dr. Downs felt differently about the matter, and one day a few weeks later he walked Into Perry's home with some very startling and splendid news. After he had talked to Perry for a little
  hands and saying earnestly: And may the best luck in the world be yours. my boy. You are not only a hero, but as nns a specimen of young manhood, of honor and industry ss I ever saw In all my life. GOod-by and good luck
 Perry ran Into the kitchen. where his mother was preparing supper. Mother mine. we are to pack and go to D., where we'll take the little cottage near 10 the college. for I've been declared one of those Carnegie heroes and Dr. Downs has just told me that am to have s2.O00 to spend on my edueationI The money comes from the Carnegie Hero Fund. And what's more. Dr. Downs insists on put ting another $500 to the fund. He de- clares that saved his life at the risk of my own. He says there was no possible chance of his escaping death had not I come to his assistance. You see. the rail- road fence along that part of the cut had been blown down by the blizzard, and there was nothing between the Doctor and the ditch. But. mother dear. what are you crying for? I feel like hing and laughing. and then falling Q, my knees and thanking God for the good for tune that has besallen me"

 Perry's horse had been left behind by the running animal, but now his rider laid. whip and hard, strong heel to him, urging him to run. On and on. faster and yet faster ran Perry's horse. a big. strong, well-fed animal that seemed to enjoy trying his speed against that of the runaway.
 'As feared He didn't take the turn" Perry gasped the words. But he was now beside the running horse. The occu- pant of the buggy was helpless and could only hold on and await the inevitable
 Perry strained every nerve. His horse was now neck and neck with the run away. Only about 100 feet lay between the racers and the edge of the ditch Perry knew that his own life was in danger. but he would not shirk the work before him Reaching out he grasped the bridle of the running horse. jerked upon it with all his excited strength. holding to the horn of his saddle with bis other arm and crying Whoa, whoa"' to his Obedient horse. His own horse stopped suddenly, as if he realized the danger that was just in front of him. And in doing so he caused the other horse to plunge. rear and drop to his launches
 And then 1t was that Perry and the man in the buggy had the opportunity to look at each other The man had quickly jumped from the buggy and was holding his horses bit. Why. upon my soul, my rescuer is none other than Perry Adams! Wait a bit, my boy. till

 We'll Pigwigs kicked up a fuss when ever he could do so. for he was very much put out over the fact that Chubby no longer held him dearer than the other toys of the playroom. He knew that he had cost more money than any other three toys put together in the place, and he felt his superiority. But now there was an ugly little wooden gun. a drum with horrible noise-making sticks. and q candy cane, that held first place in Chub- by's affection. For whole hours Chubby would beat that drum till every sensitive toy in the room would almost have hys- terics. and Pigwigs would feel like kick ing the windows out and running far, far away.
 He was such a fine trotter, too. and many time both Chubby and Blintie had said that he was as easy 10 ride on as a rocking chair. Its like settin' in swing. sister, to ride dear. trottin Pig wigs" declared Chubby many and many 6 time.
 But that time had passed now. and Chubby rarely ever got astrlde his Pig wigs back.

And after his play hunt be would get his candy cane and strut about, playing that he was a big man like hls papa, and woe to any toy that chauccd to come in his path. for he would releltlessly strike II ont of the way with his cane. And at times he would nibble st the end of the cane, getting hits of the sweet. hard sub stance of which 1t was made. But he

"of course. mother mine." he went on to say, I'd love to make thorough study of cleo tricity, for l really believe that l might make some wonderful discoveries some day. But-there's an ocean of time I'm but 16 years old. If I manage to keep the position l now have in Mir. Greens store, we'll be able to lay away a few dollars each month. After we've played the miser for a few years we'll have enough to enable me to go to college. And you shall 80 with me. We'll take a little cottage-maybe one with a few spare rooms to let out to other students and thereby help out with the rent. Oh.

 ''oh. you dear. courageous boy" said Perry's mother. kissing him and com polling him to be seated at his desk again. And now I shall go to bed. for you have only an hour to study. l must not keep you talking when you should be alone with your books"
 But just as Mrs. Adams was about to retire to her bedroom q quick knock was heard on the door and she hurried to see who was demanding admittance al so late an hour. A neighbor's child stood there stifiing frightened sobs. ''Oh. Mrs. Adams, please may Perry so for the

 And alas. poor Pigwigs. He DO longer reared his head in the air. nor stepped high with his master upon bis back. He at first fumed and kicked and stamped his feet. Then be became quiet and sad. his poor heart very heavy, indeed.
 One day Blnkie came running into the playroom. bringing with her a little visit or As soon as the little guests eyes fell upon Pigwigs she cried out: "oh. what a lovely horsey! Is he gentle enough for me to rider Oh. how bruver Ned would love to have him. Bruver Ned hasn't got any horsey, he hasn't"

Blinkie and Chubby were little sister and brother. Blinkie was the sister, seven years old. and Chubby was the brother, i've years old. In their big cOzy play room they had heaps and heaps of toys that santa Claus had brought them Christmas, and Blinkie and Chubby loved to play with them very much
 Among the numerous toys that filled every nook and corner of the pIayroom was one which held first place in the heart of Chubby for a whole week nfter he became owner of It. Now, this toy was a pretty little black horse. with fine mane and tail And on his smooth back was a saddle, and In his mouth was a bridle-bit, and over his bowed neck were the bridle reins fastened to the saddle horn. And beneath his feet were a pair of strong rockers on which he would plunge and leap and rear when Chubby was on his back. And the name of this beautiful little horse was Pigwigs. Chub- by had named him on the morning of his arrival, and immediately he had jumped into the saddle before his mamma had taken or his nightiel and rode many, many miles, meeting with strange ad- ventures en route. But. breakfast being ready soon after Chubby's waking, he had to dismount and get into his day clothes and hurry down 10 the dining room, for Chubby was always so hungry of mo.n- ing that he was one of the first at the table. Even his new riding horse did not take away his appetite.
 We'll. and so 1t happened that Pigwigs held first place ia Chubby's heart for about a week after his arrival: then Chubby began to turn his attention to other toys less pretentious than Pigwigs. Of coarse. this did not set well in the heart of Pigwlgs. and he became fractious.

The rent of the coffin is correspondingly small, but the undertaken drives a good business at rent ing collins to the poor. for during the months of sickness in the city he had no idle cofins on his hands, and one busy season will cover the entire cost of q stock of cofins which will do good service for many years.

A FUNERAL

Burying the dead in Mexico differs somewhat in form and ceremony from funerals fin our own land. If the family or friends of the deceased are financially able to pay for the showily adorned tram way heerse the funeral assumes a digni- fed and most respectful aspect From the house of the deceased the cofhn Ia carried on the backs of porters to the waiting funeral tramcar. The nourners follow in funeral garb. When all have been placed in the GET the signal Is given and away goes the car-be 1t propelled by electricity or drawn by horses-at round pace. One writer of note, who, on witnessing q funeral procession in Nexi- co. declared that to him 1t looked as though the sexton were running away with the corpse so fast did the tram hearse travel through the streets towards the cemetery. But such haste is unavoid- able luasmuch as the funeral ear runs on the same track with hundreds of other cars. aud must not. therefore. retard business traffic So IL accommodates Its speed to that of the other cars on sche- duled time.
 When a very poor person dies his fun eral is most slmp'e affair. coffin is hired for the occasion and is carried 10 the clty of the dead on the back Of a peon. the family and friends following on foot As the nearest cemetery to the City of Mexico Is r. miles distant enc VII readily see that the burial of q poor per son Is attended by much fatigue and physical suffering. and sometimes. when one of the lnOuTners Is aged. or of weak constitution. two days will be consumed in making the journey. Upon reaching The burial ground the body Is taken from the coffin. wrapped n q coarse serape of hemp. and plaeed in q quickly dug bOIe some two Ieet ueep and covered
