THE FABMEB'8 WIFE.
Up with tho birds In the early morning
Tho dew-drop glows like ft precious gem j
Beautiful tints In tho skies aro dawning,
But slio's never a moment to look nt them
The men nro wanting their breakfast early i
She must hot linger, sho must not wait i
For words that nro sharp and looks that aro surly,
Aio what men glvo when meals aro late.
Oli, glorious colors the clouds aro turning,
If sho would but look over hilts nnd trees i
But hero nro tho dishes nnd hero Is tlio churning
Thoso things nlways must J icld to these.
Tho w orld is filled with tho wlno ot beauty,
If she could but pauso nnd drink It In i
But pleasuro sho says must wait for duty
Neglected work Is committed sin.
Tho day grows hot, and licr hands grow weary i
Oh for an hour to cool her head,
Out with tho birds and wlnd3 sO cheery I
But sho must gel dinner nnd bako her bread.
Tho busy men In tlio hay-tleld working,
It they saw her Bitting Tfltli Idle hand,
Woirld think her lazy, and call It shirking,
And she never could mako them understand.
They do not know that the heart within her
Hungers for beauty nnd things sublime ;
They only know that thoy want their dinner
Plenty of It, Mid Just "on time."
And after tho sweeping and churning and baking,
And dinner dishes aro nil put by,
She sits nnd bows, though her head Is aching,
Till time for supper and "cTiorcs" draw nigh.
Her boys at school must look like others,
She says, as sho patchas their frocks nnd hoso,
For tho world Is quick to censuro mothers
For tho least neglect of their children's clothes
Her husband comes from tho field of labor,
He gives no pralso to Ills weary wlfo ;
She's dono no luoro than has her neighbor;
TIs tho lot of all in country life.
But after the strlfo and weary tusslo
With Ufa H done, and Bho lies at rest;
Tho nation's brain and heart and muscles
Her sons and daughters shall call her blest.
And I think tho sweetest Joy of heaven,
Tho rarest bliss ot eternal II te,
And tho falreet crown ot nil, will be given
1'nto tho way-worn farmer's wife.

SELECT STORY.
THE MISSING JEWELS.
BY r.TTli: ROOERS.
"It hath a plan, but no plot.
Life hath none."
Festus.
Anno IJardulpli was not very voiith
ful, nor was sho particularly handsome;
and sho was housekeeper for tho ailing
Mrs. Dortnau.
This invalid lady resided in a fine
wooden house of many rooms, through
which ran a wido hall with walls of
Ponipeiian red, and a gilt edged ceiling
that was painted in soino curious and
uncertain tint of pale, pinkish brown.
Tlio lloor was tessellated in brown and
red, and tho dark, sarved doors opened
upon .1 columnar portico with broad,
brown steps leading down upon a great
lawn flanked with thick trees of beech
and pine.
Across tho greening lawn in tho sweet
yellow April sunshine, walked Anne
Bardulpli a slim, straight woman with
regular and sovero features, and won
derfully largo eyes of darkest gray. She
had an abundance of neatly-arranged
dark hair, and sho was neatly attired
in a serviceable suit of some clinging,
dull bluo fabric, with collar ami cults
of linen while, prim and immacu
late. Two young men coming upon tho
portico saw her an interesting and not
unlovely figure moving under tho grim,
whispering pines.
"Tho new housekeeper of inadamo
pleases you her you admire, perhaps,"
one remarked rather qui.zingly.
"Would you suggest that Miss Uar
dulph may not merit admiration t" re
turned the other evasively, nnd with
some perceptible irritation.
"I now do nothing suggest," was the
protest, in sharp foreign necents. "I
hero am conio to seo much, to much
think; but I nothing say until the how
say you to it? till tho ono exposure
grand.''
Tony Dorinan smoked thoughtfully,
for several silent minutes. Finally ho
tossed away his cigar and turned toward
his companion.
"D'Uazelly," ho began pleasantly,
"you are here ostensibly only as my
guest and intimate friend "
"On tho what do j ou call tho ostensible
Iimposonot," interrupted Louis D'Uaz
elly, quickly and proudly. "I but the
detective am tho servitor hired of
madainc to her diamonds of value find,
and tho thief to discover."
"Yes, I know,"interposed tlio young
gentleman, "but. I have become awnro
of your worth as r. man. and I really
regard you-as 11 friend. No friend will
over bo more warmly welcomed to my
homo than you. If I did not feel like
this I should not bo likely to confess to
you that I havo been refused by Miss
13ardulpli for whom "ho supplement
ed gently and with hesitation "I fancy
you havo a tender preference, even
though you would appear to disparago
her."
Tho young Frenchman winced, and
in his bright black eyes was an expres
sion of trouble nnd distrust, as ho (raz
ed steadily toward tho stately pities
that loomed in sharp spires against tho
sweet bluo April sky.
"It is so," ho acknowledged, present
ly, a hot color reddening his swnrthy
face. "For her I have the ono liking
that is very tender ; but also havo I tho
doubt that is much and not good.
What of this do you think"
D'Uazelly who had become a de
tective only because ho had an odd nnd
inborn fondness for what he considered
an exciting and most delcotable voca
tion opened whnt ono would presume
to be, from its exterior appearance, 11
quaintly-bound book and nothing more.
It was, however, a "detective camera,"
by which ho hud shortly before obtain
ctl, and without her knowledge, several
striking photographs of thu women of
whom ho had been speaking so dub
iously. "What of this do you think 1" ho iter
ated, exhibiting r. pictcro of .Miss liar
dulpli as she was standing in a curious
altitude of eager and fearful interest
beneath ono of tho great beech trees
beyond the lawn. At her feet, besido
a pilo of imm and stones, opened n
small cavity, over which bIiii was bond
ing, while holding low in n loosening
grasp, what was quite surely a number
of jeweled ornaments,
"I do not know what to think,"
enunciated Mr. Dorinaii, in tones of
dismay. "It would Becm that my
mothers jowels havo been secreted in
that placet and I should say that Anno
lias accidentally discovered tho deposi
tory." "If that is so, why to you or to tho
inadamo honored, sho comes not nil
so glad, so animate and tell tho ono
discovery so so happy nnd not so to bo
understood t" D Itiuclly demanded,
with emphnsis.
"Hut good lioavcns, Louis I do you
mean that you suspect Miss Dardulph
of nny wrong doing t" was the pained
exclamation. "I must absolutely re
fuse to believe thnt Anno that ingen
ious nnd serious girl, with her pure

Although there may bo something in
definable nnd inystcrlous nbout her. I
could never nssociato with tho mystery

Sho was but his mother's house
keeper! she had refused his love, and
the naino nnd station ho would havo
given her; yet was ho n right royal
friend, nnd would not listen unmoved
or acquiescent to any accusations mado
against her.
While D'Uazelly, who professed for
her a tender liking, although he doubt
ed muoli, sliruggctl Ins snrttce shoulders,
sighed, and looked vastly consequential
and melancholy, albeit he was not .1
sentimentalist, mid had dctormintd to
bo austerely practical, as befits a pro
fessional of his kind.
"I nothing know of tho mystery, not
evil, that you do mean," ho said, impa
tiently. "And to ine it docs seem that
the diamonds of much vnltto must now
to tho inadamo so disconsolate bo re
stored, and the woman of the eyes pure,
nnd tho wnys that so puzzling" are,
must to the custody go."
"Hut sho never entered this houso
until days after tho diamonds were
missed," remonstrated Tony Dorman,
Bhuddcring; "I am decidedly mystified.

"Sho tho nccomplico of ono other is,
I do think," announced tho detective,
with grandiloquence of manner.' "Slio
no longer hero will stny. Sho will an
illness feign, as it may be, and thqn to
tlio other sho will go nwny, tho dia
monds with her takinu, if her we not
could prevent."
"That is all very plausible," returned
her defender, unconvinced. "Hut wo
will at once secure my mother's prec
ious ornaments, nnd then I really must
havo positive and irrefutable evidence
against Miss Bardulph beforo I shall
allow you to denounce her,"
The early dusk had already suffused
the lawn with a purjilo haze. The cool
air was delicious with tho fresh odors
of violets and hyacinths, and sweet
young grasses. Ihe new, rosy moon
and a great golden star glittered in the
blue Western sky; and out among the
gloomy, complaining pines tho night
uirus were tuneiuny calling.
Tho two young men crossed the lawn
and entered the dim grove, full of resi
nous scents, strange, dreamy noises,
nnd unoasy and fantnstio shadows.
Mutely and with soundless steps they
followed tho grassy, winding walk that
led to tho umbrageous beach of D'Raz
elly's singular photograph.
Suddenly both started, and simultane
ously retreated around a curve of the
path where they stood as silent and
motionless ns the shndo in which they
were hidden. Heyond, in the pearly
effulgence of starlight and moonlight,
they saw tho suspected young woman
bending over that odd repository, from
which sho removed tho moss and peb
bles until her intent watchers beheld
tho cold, inextinguishable firo of the
precious gems gleaming within the
(lanK, ulack mold.
"What think you now 7" whispered
D'Uazelly excitedly. "Tho diamonds
sho will take. Seo ! is it not so!"
And beforo the other could silonco
or restrain him ho leaped forward and
confronted Anne, who stood quito still,
and only lifted her comely head fear,
lossly, smiling with calm defiance and
somo unnssumcd amusement.
"Hush I" sho raumured, imperiously,
as ho began to speak. "In another
moment the mystery of what you havo
presumed to bu a robbery will bo eluci
dated, and precisely as I believed it
would ue. Jiook :
Down tho path, with au unsteady
and unnatural gait, came a surprising
apparition tho figure of a lady. Hare
were her feet, and her gray, drooping
head was uncovered, and her thin whito
robes glistened with tho damp night
dews.
"Mother I" casped Tony Dorman,
amazed and glad for tho accused Anne,
wtio was so curiously exonerated.
Straight on camo the somnambulist.
pausing at length beforo the treasures
she had secreted in her abnormal state,
and gazing with unseeing eyes upon
tho priceless, sparkliug things that she
touched lovingly with her delicate
withered hands, and then carefully
covered again with tho thick, silky
moss. Then she smiled faintly, sighed
as with satisfaction, turned and slowly
moved nwav.
Tho countenance of Louis D'Uazelly
at that moment was not that of au in
dividual consciotts'of superior discern
ment, and tho glanco ho ventured to
vouclisalo Anno was deprecatory.
"What I should sav I know not." lio
stammered. "What I did think what
1 did do so very stupid was. Ah. if
tho kind mademoiselle would mo but
pardon, ho concluded, with gallant
entreaty.
Very demurely bIio Assured him thnt
his suspicions wero quito pardonable.
nnd perhaps creditable to his zeal ns a
detector and denouncer of tho unright
eous. Some time later, corainir through tho
handsome, brilliantly-lighted hall, Anne
met tlio young master ot tlio house.
"Iho tempting reward ottered for
tho recovery of Mrs. Dorman's dia
monds induced me to como hero as her
housekeeper," bIio explained "I had an
inoxplicablo feeling that 1 might find
tho missing jowels. I consulted no ono
no one advised me. I was really
ashamed of my project, that I knew
was quixotic, if not impracticable, and
a failuro would havo made mo ridicu
lous. Shortly after coinitiL' to Mrs.
Dorman, I learned that bIio had latterly
been hnuntcd bv an nvi'OHsivn nml in
creasing fear of being robbed ; I learn
ed, too, that sho had only recently
umiiuesiuu Bomuamuuuo symptoms.
The truth oamo to mo as an inspiration,
but only by morest nccidont t and only
this morning, whilo I was exploring
for gentian that I did not find, did I
espy tho tiny, suggestive mound of
loose, living moss, tnrougn wtiioli l
bw a single spark of something shin
ing liko a glowworm. So I waited aud
watched, hoping sho would visit her
buried treasure iust ns she did. Tho
discovery wns very simple, nnd is now
clear to you nil."
"Aud now you huvo won tho reward
you will leave us, I supposot" ho ob
served, soberly.J
"Yes," sho gravely nsscntcd.
"0, Anne, if I could only persundo
you to stay I" ho responded quickly
nnd imploringly. "Do you fear I can
not maku you n happy wife!"
"It is not that," sho said, with frank,
serious manner that had always so
pleased him. "It is that I could not
make you n happy husband. Do bo
reasonable, Mr. Dorman, for you must
bo well aware that I nm not nt nil tho
sort of person whom you ought to mar
ry. And beside," alio added, with a
quaint llttlo laugh, "I havo a profes
sion now, and I must not wed ono who
knows nothing of tho instincts and re
quirements of my calling."
Tho handsome young fellow tvns
BOtnowlint agitated by her speech which
ho considered daring aud significant.
"Surely, my dear Anne," ho faltered,
"you would not wish to becomo a pro
fessional detectivoT nor would you in
timato thnt you havo nn affection for
Louis D'Uazelly who so unjustly ac
cused you, and who would willingly
havo placed you in custody V
"My friend," sho replied, sweetly, a
tear sparkling in each largo eye, and a
lovely new color on each soft cheek,
'wo have just now had an understand
ing Mr. D'Uazelly and 1. Ho regrets
his mistake, nnd certainly he is not so
blnmnble when ho would only havo
noted conscientiously."
"Yours is the logic of love, Anne,"
tho young man answered drvly. "And
who may understand tho Iieart of a
woman T You will bo Louis' wifo ono
of these days."
His prediction was verified. And so
it happened that a very happy and
satisfactory marriage was effected by
the, incident of Mrs. Dorman's Missing
Jowels.

aiRAKIl COLLKOE.
A writer to tho press says : Glrard
was formerly a devout Catholic, whoso
contributions to thu church at times
wero almost princely. IIo did not mar
ry until many years of bachelorhood
had tinged his hair with gray, and
but for a strango meeting would doubt
less havo remained a celibate. Being tho
largest ship owner in tho world, his
business led him to nearly all parts
of the globe, and his name was famil
iar in every merchant port. On pub
lic occasion, when a largo body of mer
chants wclenmprl him li ntnn nftnr
long ciuise, the festivities of tho recep-
uou iiinieu irom speecii-making to u
grand ball, at which Girard saw nnd
was introduced to tho daughter of a
prominent gentleman in Philadelphia,
and this meeting which had many sin
gular features about it not necessary
to be related here, culminated in mar
riage. "It is said by all thoso with whom
I conversed on the subject that Gi
rard's young wife was exquisitely beau
tiful nnd a lady of rare polish and
education. His treatmeut of her was
that of a proud lover, ever anxious to
recito her favor by a bestowal of ele
gant gifts and a constant exhibition of
roving tenderness. Ono year after the
marriage, business called Girard to

return he was greeted affectionately by
. juunj; nno, uui. iier ureases were
poison to his lips, for thero were un
nistakcablo evidences, readily appar
ent, that sho was about to becomo a
mother.
"1 could add nothing to tho facts of
this sad story by dwelling upon tho
sceno which followed. Girard's re
proach was succeeded bv a frank con
fession from his wife, who named their
favorite pastor as her guilty compan
ion. I nm not prepared to say of
what denomination Mrs. Girard was a
meuber, but my impression now is
that Girard had Bomo time previous
withdrawn from tho Catholio church
for some just reason, and that both ho
and his wifo had united with somo
Protestant sect.
"Girard could not forcrivo his wife.
and she, being a keenly sensitive
woman, was so cousciously stricken by
her great crimo that two months after
the revelation sho becamo insane and
carried to a madhouse. Hero sho lan
guished for nearly two years when
death delivered her of her maladv.
Tho church of whioh sho was a mem
ber took charge of her remains and
gave them burial in n manner com
mensurate with tho great wealth of
her husband. A bill of tho funeral ex
penses was afterwards presented to
Girard, but ho peremptorily refused
payment and tho matter was about to
go to tho courts. Discovering tho at
titude in which such a local contest
would place him, Girard paid tho bill
under protest, nnd then, feeling ns
though tho church had stabbed him
twice, ho withdrew from active life.
and realizing $18,000,000 from his
shipping interests, concluded to spend
,OUO,000 of that sum m founding a
college, which ho intended should bo a
permanent reproach to all churches
and tho folio wers thereof. His respect
for society and his relatives prevented
him from exposing tho secret which
crushed his life, nnd thus speculation
has been left to write the history of
his domestic sorrow.
"In tho front centre of tho main
building of Girard College is a largo
picture of tho philanthropist's faithful
housekeeper, but no portrait of his
wito was over suflered to como insido
the precincts which his will has
sought to protect from ministerial oyes,
and by which he has scoured an in-
telleotual inheritance to many poor but
ueserving orpnnn ooys.
"Uirard survived his wife tifteeu
years, nnd now lies under n marble
sarcophagus in the main college build

Oare of Manure,
Not less important than tho making
nnd procuring of this important ele
ment in farming or trucking, is the
care to bo taken with it after it is ob
tained. A largo proportion of tho
manure upon somo farms Is allowed to
wasto simply through neglect ; this too
after great labor and expense is in
currcd in its making or procurement.
This neglect may not be n wilful one,
but it may bo tho result of custom
peculiar to every community, or it may
bo from ignoranco of a few simple
rules governing the manngement of
manure.
Wo have repeatedly seen largo heaps
of coarso maniiro piled in front of sta
bio doors and allowed to remain un
disturbed, waiting tho owner's con
venience for hauling nnd spreading the
same, or worso still to applying for hill
and drill. In tho meantime it will
havo gone through a fierco heat and
become lire fanged to such an extent
ns to be of very little value compared
with what it might' havo been if prop
erly cared for in time. Again 'wo have
seen such as was brought from distan
ces at great labor and expense, stib
jeted to equally bad treatment, Tho
trucker, least of all, is nble to suffer
this loss, though nono can aftoril it
Wo aro convinced by experi
ence and observation that great
loss annually occurs to fnrinors'frb'm
failing to follow a fow simple rules for'
tho care of manure. Wo havo all
lead or heard of the superiority of
mnnuro made and kept under cover,
which wo nro not going to call into'
question hero, but evory one has n6t '
the facilities for keeping it undercover1
besides, the trucker who uses 'large'
quantities, wants it put whero it will
bo most convenient to get . at when
needed for applying in hill or drill.
Ono thing is very clear, fresh manitrej'
whether under cover or exposed, needs '
constant turning with tho fork until'"
fermentation begins to subside. Wo
believo in encouraging this heating and
fermentation when it can bo properly
controlled, but if neglected too long it '
will be the source of much loss In"
manure. If tho manure bo coarse nnd
dry it is best to mix with some good
composit, but this should not be in
such quantity ns to prevent heating or
fermentation from going on. So treat
ed and occasionly forked over, little or
nt. loss will bo sustained by the escape
Ol UIllIIlUIIlll.
Whero compost is not to be had'it
is well when in turning to take up '
earth from tho ground beneath 'the
pile and mix with it, coveritig tho heap
with several inches of the same. This
helps to keep the heat and gases with
in, and if tho heajMS turned every few
days until well rotted and fermentation
ceases, it will keep in good condition
until wanted in the spring. The heap
should bo left high enough to prevent
leaching by rain or snow. This in '
moderate allowances wo consider a
benefit rather than injury, for all that
is held by the advocates of keeping
manure under cover.
Wo havo but little faith in tho prac
tice of hauling fresh, unfermeuted ma
nure trom the stable or barnyard and
spreading upon tho land, for the
reason that it is then in a raw unde
compobcd condition, nnd not in
a Btato ready for aiimilnticn
by any crop. Besides, if tho ma
nure be coarse, a largo part is lost, to
tho immediate crop, and requires time
for its natural decomposition. This
decomposition or preparation for plant
food goes on quickly if it is allowed to
ferment before applying ; besides, tho
formation of such gases and chemical
changes givo additional value to ma
nure. As au illustration wo havo but
to notice the littlo effect of fresh mn
nuro dropped about tho field or pas
tures upon tho surrounding vegetation
as compared with an equal quantity
applied when well rotten. Maryland

be rehearsing their parts. Tho play
began on tho third evening ot the girl's
