The Formidable Tom.

4 writer, travelling on foot through the southern mountains studying the people for literary purposes, came up on man of whom he sought infor- nation as to the location of certain cabin where he had been advised to put up for the night. 'You-all goin' there?" asked the man. Well, Toms q fust-class man, take him jest right, but he's mighty queer" What do you mean?a Its like this: Tomll be settin' outside, most likely, an he'll see you-all. an ef youall don't suit him he may set the dawg on yu. Eff he don't and you gifts to talkin with him. and say anything he don't like lie may throw you down an tramp on you-al. But ef yOu-all's too careful in your talk, on the other hand, he's liable to git suspicious m take you all for spy an use his gun fust an listen to explanations afterward. But it ain't no use tryin' to git by without stopping. Ff you-all was to try that, 1t would be all up, for he'd think you all was proud an naughty Eff you all wants to come outer the mountain whole, don't go past Toms cabin with out stopping, whatever you do."-New York Times.

 There was another Roche there, and when he saw me he commenced 10 run toward dugOut, but seemed to slip back step. so l promptly got him through the head. Another was resting on one knee, and started shout ing for mercy, but he paid the same penalty. I next went round another traverse. and found three more Ger mans, and they all met with the same fate. either with the bayonet or rifle bullet. Hurrying round the next tra- verse I saw about seven Huns throw ing hand grenades at the lads who had not got in the trenches, but were fight ing along the top.

 Old Mrs Dorsett became friendly and chatty in that first conversation. They grew well acquainted during the ensuing few days. An intending theme with Mrs. Dersett was the goodness and loyalty of her son. Chester.

 "Stingy oh, no name for it !' burst forth Mary. as the two girls left the home about to be denuded of its far nishings, it's ambitious owner headed for the city. where man of parts might make something of himself :" .To think of all that money and this miserly way of getting rid of his clos est relatives! Oh, well the brooch is rather pretty. It will set off that blue party dress of mine finely"
 So Mary went on her way. her empty head full of vanity which brings vex- ation of spirit, and Nellie hers, the irk- some duties of her lonely life frightened by the thought that the old familiar companion of the being she had loved best in the world, Aunt Janet, would always be at her side.
 Nellie found an unexpected use for the contents of the work basket. Some new people had moved into the great rambling place next to them, which had stood idle for several years There was studious appearing man of about thirty a old Iu1N lE his mother, and four small children. Nel- lie had learned that the name of the gentleman was Chester Dorsett, that he was single, in business in the city. and that the children belonged to brother who. with his wife was away on vacation tour. Mr. Dorsett had come to the little country town to give the children an outing until fall, hS aged mother undertaking their care
 ''Such cares" more than once Nellie had exclaimed to herself as she saw the little ones running wild. They had u famous time asid glorious brook, bramble and bush; but they romped, they tore. they played in water and dirt until nightfall, they wandered home veritable little tramps in instinct and attire. One day Nellie was seated in the garden doing some mending, the cherished work basket by her side. when a bushy head adorned with tan gled auburn ringlets full of burrs ob- truded through break in the hedge.
 Did my ball roll here?" inquired the tiny midget of a girl.
 T haven't seen 1t, dear" answered Nellie, glad of company. She looked for the missing sphere. found It and handed It to her visitor The latter was in dire disorder Her tousled hair Was secured by ribbon tied in q hard knot, one pocket of her apron hung by thread. There was great tear in her dress. The little one was shrewd and prompt to observe the eynosure

 You do need some attention" said Nellie. I'd be glad to tidy you up u bit. Suppose We try"
 Nellie found willing subject She combed out that gnarled head of hair, she piled her needle nimbly. She was quite proud of the transformation she had effected, when the little one went away all smiles and dimples with the announcement that she would bring this ''dear Aunty" some presents.

As the seasoning of game makes or mars it, care should 10 taken not to overdo the seasoning. The dish to be served, no matter what 1t ts-bird, fish, flesh or vegetable should not be so deluged with favors that the distinct and characteristic flavor of the food itself is lost.
