could not help tho conviction that some
thing more than hard work had plough
ed the deep wrinkles which ran across
her forehead and threatened to lift her
eyebrows up to her hah. Xabby had
lived with the Squire's mother fifty years
from tho timo when Sirs. Ilosley took
her in, a 10 year old orphan, who was,as
the good old lady expressed it, 'more
plague than prolit,' until she grew into
tlio steady reliable hand-maiden, who
finally, with everyone's good wishes,
married youiiff Josiah Uould mid set un
in tho world for herself. Old 3 Irs. Ilosley
had long since gono to her reward, but
tho family still kept up a friendly in
terest in Xabby and her fortunes, tho
Squire in particular being for her 'guide,
philosopher and friend' in all tho emer
gencies or lite.
'Why, what's tho matter now.Xabbv?'

ashamed on't, and then I kep' hopin'

to him, and said and dono everything a
woman could, but it seemed as if the
more I talked the worso he irrew.
Tho Squire looked at Xabbv's rather
sharp, hard face, and perhaps was hard
ly so surprised as Xabby expected, that
Josiah hnd not been reformed by tho
vigirous 'talking to' ho had undoubtedly
received.
'Ho grow more shiftless and good-for-nothing,'
continued Xabby, 'tilllinally ho
didn't do much but set around tho kitch

heart. Would you 'be able to eat some
of my cheeso Squire?'
' 'Try me and see, Xabby,' na'ul the
Stpiiio sinijing, not impervious to Xab
by's compliments. Xabby made her exit
just as Mrs. Ilosley rushed in, full of
wiMy indignation "that, the Squire had
been allowed to see a 'client.'
Xabby's home was over at the 'Cor
ners,' threo miles from the village. She
walked rapidly along in the fast thick
ening darkness", with the steady, strong
gait becoming the self-reliant" woman
that she was. Yet even her unimairina-
livt' nature was not proof against the de
pressing influence of tho chilly Xovein
her evening. The wind whistled through
tlic bare tree branches, which creaked
and groaned mournfully and waved
wildly ui) and down in the dim light
overhead. The wind seemed to cherish
a special spite against poor Vabby. It
blew her bonnet off and her hair into
her eyes, h. niggled madly with her for
her shawl, look her breath away and
firmly resisted her every step. Finally
it began to send spiteful cold rain drops
in her face rain that seemed almost to
freeze ns it fell.
Josiah used to come after me with an
umbrella when I was caught out in the
rain,' thought Xabby. 'He was always
real kind "and good to me after all. 1
thinno's he e-er gave me across word in
his life, even when ho'd been drinking.'
Hero tlio driving, sleety rain and
piercing wind pounced down upon Xab
by with renewed fierceness, hustling her
madly in fiendish glee.
'An awful night to be homeless, Xab
by,' something seemed to say.'
'I don't care,' said Xabby to herself,
beginning to feel cross again, and gen
erally ill-used as sho grew wetter and
colder, 'It serves him right, lie's made
his bed and can lie in it.'
At the 'Corners,' light streaming out
cheerfully into the night from other
homes, made Xabby's house particularly
gloomy and uninviting. Xabby fumbled
under tho mat for tho door key, fumbled
with stiffening lingers for tho keyhole,
and finally succeeded iu unlocking tho
door, and felt her way through tho little
eutry.
Thero is always something 'uncanny'
about going at night into a dark aud
shut-up house. liven people of the best
regulated minds experience a vague, sus
picion of something behind thcm,a sense
of possible ghostly hands about to clutch
them in the darkness. Xabby was a
woman, like Mrs. Kdiuund Sparkler, with
'no nonsence about her;' but,iievertheless
a cheerful tale sho had read only yester'
day in the Chroniole, about a burgular
and a lone woman, kcnt:oimug into her
head, and sho careful .y avoided the
blackness of tho corners and the nantrv
door, as sho grouped around the kitchen
for a candle. Of course tho tiro had gone
out.

For Josiah cherished the most pro

ration unmiugled with awe lie thought
her a most wonderful moinan. Sho was
just as beautiful to him now as in the
old courting days befoio tho brightness

creep forth from their graves on such

Xabby could not help wandering
where Josiah was to-night. It was so
lonely sitting thero with no one to speak
to, listening to the moaning of the wind
tho creaking of the blinds. 'the loud tick

of having "freed her mind" to thn MMtiirn

tine of her life: the youthful dr.

oven thought of Josiah with" pity. For
tho Ilrst timcshe 'put herself iu his place'
and realized how almost imiiossililn it
was for one of his weak natiirn tn r.-.sit
unaided the temptation which would cost
a stronger will no effort.
I m afraid I've been a littlo too slintu
with Josiah,' thought she. I've snrti.r
took it for granted I was a saint and ho
a sinner, and scolded him right along
down hill. A nico saint I am. As tirnu'il
and high strung as Lucifer himself. Oh.
dear,' sighed Xabby. 'A prettv mess I've
made of living. If we could only imh.inl:
nnd begin over again seems to me things
would go better.
.lust then thero was a faint noise, like
the clicking of the door latch. Xabbv
started and looked around. All was Mill
again no one visable. Yet Xabbv
could not rid herself of the impression
tkat some one was near her the odd
sense we have of another's individuality
near us though not present.
There's some one liangin' around
here, 1 know,' said she to herself.
Xabby was one who always met things
half way. Accordingly she walked to
the outside door, and opening it quickly,
peered out into the darkness. There
stood Josiah wet, sheepish, sorry.
Once he had started to go in, but h'is
courage failing, ho lingered iu dubious
hesitation on tho door step.
'Why don't you come iu, Josiah' ask
ed Xabby.
'I didn't know as you want me Xab
by,' replied Josiah, with all the meekness
becoming a leturning prodigal.
'Want you? 'Of course I do,' said
Xabby, heartily. -Come right along in.
I'm going to have griddle cakes for sup
per, and you must tend them while I set
tho table.' Griddle cakes were one of
Josiah's weaknesses, and Xabby knew it.
Josiah came in. If he ever gets iiito
heaven, probably his sensations will not
be one whit inoro delightful than they
were now, as from the bleakness and
gloom of the night, the forlornness of
his wretched wanderings, ho came into
the cosy brightness of tho kitchen and
felt that he was at homo onco more. I Inn-
good tho tea smelled. The lire roared
and snapped, the tea kettle boiled and
bubbled, aud bobbed its lid tin .-mil
down, and from the griddle tho savory
odor of the cakes ascended like a home
ly incense Josiah's faco shimmr with
mingled heat and happiness as he turned
tiiegriudie cakes was something worth
seeing.
JNabby stepped briskly around irettiiiL'
supper ready. It seemed so pleasant to
set tho table for two again, tohavo some
ono to jiniise and appreciate her cooking.
The November wind might howl its
worst now. Its hold on Xabby was
gone In place ot all tho bitter sadness
that hung heavily round her heart was
a warm feeling of happiness, of comfort
aud hope
All tho explanation they had was this:
Josiah drew from under his coat an ex
ceedingly awkward and knobby haudle.
'lvo bought somethiu' for vou Nab
by,' said he
l Ho 'somethiu undone proved to bo
a very haudsomo britaimia tea pot. Tho
tea pot must have known that it was a
peace offering, with such preternatural
bright ness did it shine and glisten. Some
thing in Nabby's shone and glistcned,too,
although sho winked hard and scorned
the weakness of n pocket handkerchief.
'Thank you, Josiah,' sho said, 'it's a
regular beauty, and I shall set lots by it.'
Which, so long as thoy understood
each other, was, perhaps, as well as if
Josiah had made a long-worded speech
of repentance and reformation and Xab
by another of forgiveness.
I wish 1 could say that Xabby never
scolded Josiah again. Mut eau't.
However, 'she drew it mild,' and thero
was a general understanding between
them that this was only an exercise mado
necessary by habit a barking by no
means involving biting. And Josiah
was so accustomed to it that ho would
have missed it, and felt unnatural with
out being wound up and set goin-' for
the day by Xabby. "
One day, later" iu tho winter, Xabby
was washing for Mrs, I Iosley.
'So you've taken Josiah 'back again,
after all,' said -Mrs. Ilosley.

According to statements. iiiioHii-inl lmt

Xow Testament have made alterations
which will excite soineconstcrnation and
not a little regret among all those who
are familiar with the authorized version.
In the Lord's prayer the concluding pe
tition, "Deliver us from evil," is changed
into "Deliver us from the evil one." Half
a do.en of the most familiar texts in the
Xcw Testament will disappear altogether.
The question "What will it. protit'n man
if lie shall gain the whole world and
lose his own soul '' is metamorphosed
into "What doth it profit a man to gain
the whole world and lose his own life V
"Hades" is substituted for "hell" in two
well known passages. The inscription
on the alter "io the I iikuown God
will read "To an l.'nkuown God." Apart
from those textual alterations and omis
sions the revisers have abolished tho di
visions into chapters and verses aud

to be thoroughly acquainted with the art of

Why Should They?
Xo man or woman can do salisfactorv
work when the brain is dull, the nerves un
steady, the -ystetu relaxed and they feel
generally wretched. Why should laviyerr,
merchants, clergymen, tloctors, mechanics,
or mothers often drug through their work in

cost , clear the brain and give them the
strength aud the will to perform their du
ties satisfactorily. We hnve felt its strength

Here is an illustration of the natural In
stinct ot tho horse when guided by his sense
ot smell. One of our men had bought or
had been given the skin of a lion which had
recently died, and as tho circus was just lea
ving he threw it on the driver's scat of on
a-
one
of the vans to have it tinned at the next
town. The horse in that van was a very
quiet one, that had been with the circus for
many years. Nevertheless, the animal int.
mediately showed signs of fear, which incii
ased in spite of all endeavors to pacify hiir.
Then breaking looso from all restraint, he
kicked and rared and plunged about iu tho
wildest manner until he had broken the liar,
ness and escaped. Various conjectures might
be made as to the manner in which llio.
horse was aroused; but I think it probi
ble that all those creatures which arc liable
to become proy of carnivorous beasts have
been endowed by nature with an instinct
which enables them to aistinguish their t'tnsi
from other aulmals. Chambers' Journal,
