Interest aud curiosity were at their
height in Scragg Knd on the day when
Jjvsander Hewitt, Adotiiranis hon
drove over to Ponkapawket Station to
bring back the new minister. Innu
merable guesses had been made among
the younger portion ot the community
eoncerning the appearance ol the new
parson, tt was generally agreed upon
by the young ladies that he would bo
slender, with dark eyes, a melodious
voice, ami very whito hands, aud they
embroidered several very handsome
book-marks for tho Bible and Hymn
Book, which were purchased for the
desk .nr. urieson nail been obliged to
bring his own and an elegant satin
cushion to rest them on.
Tho minister was to board at Adon
iram Hewitt's, the Hewitts being well
to-do beyond the majority of Scragg
.hud people, aud being regarded as
possessing book learning, which would
make them congenial companions for
tor Adoniram in his youth
But in two Sundays Miss Barton
conquered Scragg Knd, except a few
of tho most prejudiced, who would
never own themselves oonmiered. She
was so simple, so earnest, so sympa
thetic. Thero wcro no long words,
no far-fetched analogies, such as Mr.
Kricson used; there was uo rattling of
the dry bones ot theology ; she touch
ed the chords that vibrated in thei
every-day life.
"blie comes right home to you
that's a fact," said Joshua Ring. "Shu's
scriptooral, too, and sho makes as
Jeeliu a prayer as ever I heard. 1
don't like to see a woman in tho pulpit
and 1 ain't a going to say I do, but
she's edifying and no mistake."
"1 nover went to meetin betoro
when I didn't havo terriblo hard work
to keep from noddin', but somehow her
talk is plain and sensible and keeps
mo awake," said Luke l'eltingill, who
was wont to disturb tho congregation
"I am a dreadful coward. I don't
think I fully realized it when I began.
It 1 had been sent nnywlicro but to
Scragg Knd, I don't know what I
should have done. Hero they aro all
humble-minded people, without strong
prejudices, nnd I do seem to have
round the wny to their hearts. But I
am nfraid I should never dare to enter
another pulpit certainly not yours at
ronknpawket.
"You would soon conquer there ns
'ou havo conqtired here," said Mr.
kricson.
"I couldn't enduro that unfriendly
gaze. 1 should display all my woman-
ishuess. I should blush, 1 should
tremble, I might faint. I should be a
stumbling block lo tho women who
are following m tho sanin pathway.
1 don t mean to lie that. My work in
Scragg Knd suiliees, and I am so thank
fill for it.
"I nm sorry you feel so about l'on
kapawket, because I have a proposi
tion in my mind much mora audacious
than tho ono that 1 made, said my.
Kricson.
Miss Barton raised her eyes iniiuir-
ingly, and dropped them again instant
ly under the minister's gaze.
"I thought wc might unito the
churches," Mr. Kricson s voice trem
bled a little, ns if he were afraid.
1 don t see how it could bo done,
said Miss Barton frigidly.
"ui course more is out ono way,
said Mr. Kricson, quietly. "I dated
not ask you to bo my wife without
suggesting to you tho fact that your
work need not bo given up. '
1 he girl rose to her feet. JA'san-
der's stocking fell from her hand and
was blown away by the wind unheeded.
"I don't know what I have done to de
serve this this insult. I thought
that at least you respected me, and 1
thought my calling made mc sacred
from such such attacks altogether
"I am sorry that you should think it
an insult. I can hardly see how a
man could givo you a better proof of
his respect than to nsk you to become
his wife. And as for your calling
making you sacred, wo don't believe in
tho celibacy of the clergy, you know."
In spito of this evident mortification
and distress, there was a sly twinkle in
Mr. Kricson's eye as lie said that.
"But I I am a woman ;" said Miss
Barton, sitting down again and cover
ing her face with her hands.
"The more reason why you should
bo married," said Mr. Kticson, calmly,
you need a protector."
"I am perfectly sulueient for myself.
And 1 shall never care for anybody
anybody but my work."
ilr. Kricson arose. "I am sorry to
have troubled you," he said, gentlv.
"I love you, and I have never known
what it' was to love a woman before ;
that is all my excuse."
Miss Barton watched him as he went
down the road, with the yellow leaves
falling upon him. She observed as
sho had never done before, how finely
his head was set upon his broad shoal
tiers, what a manly grace thero was
about his strong, well-knit figure,
"But ho has no business to love
me," she said, drawing her brows into
a tight frown.
Then suddenly she remembered Ly-
Sander's stocking, and went down in
the grass to look for it. It had blown

she waited for bun waited until

And then thuv had to raise Miss
Barton and carry her into the house,

"That's just what I could have told

"She's a terriblo site llko a woman if

"I don't want anybody to think it's

his mother's arms. "But 1 didn't seem

Tho other day a young man, about
20 years of age, accompanied by a girl
two'or threo years younger, reached tho
city by a Bay City train, and after look
ing around for a few hours returned to
the depot and bought some sandwiches
for lunch. The fellow was heard brag
ging a good deal as to what ho had
done nnd could do and cities he had
visited, and by-and-by ho walked up
to the depot policeman nnd handed him
tour five cent cigars ami said :
"That's my girl in there."
"Yes."
"Sho just thinks her eves of me.1'
"So V
"I've never had a chance to show
her how I'd dio for her if necessary,
and it seems to me wc might put up a
little job li.ht here."

"Well, suppose tno and her walk out
to see the river. I leave her tor a mo

begins to chin her. I rush back and
knocked him into the middle ot next

"Well, you help inc. You pick out
somo chap around here and tell him
what I'm up to, and I won't mind

rush on him lied better run.
r lve minutes later tno girl stood on
tho wharf alone. A fellow big enougl
to pitch a barrel of Hour over a freight
car approached in a earekss way and
observed :
"Fine day, mis."
"Ves, sir."
"Nice view of tho Canada shore,"
"Yes, indeed."
"May I offer you some peppermint

Just then tho young man came
rushing down. When ho camo within
ten feet of the pair ho cried out :
"Villain 1 take your leave, or 1 II toss
you into the river."
"Oh, I guess not," carelessly replied
the other.
"Base scoundrel 1 I am heie to res

"Don't bust any buttons off,

"Tho young man made a dash,
had to, or wilt. lie rushed at tho
chap with his arm upraised and hero

was picked up and tossed over among
a lot of green hides as caiofully as if
he had been glass. Then the big man
raised his cap to tho girl, smiled sweet
ly as he bowed and scraped his foot,
and ho was out of sight before tho
young man recovered sufficiently to
call out :
"Minnie, did I kill him?"
"No, Henry."

The Aim of Exeroise.
It should bo understood of tho pub

because ns tho living body works it

but there is another purposoitt exercise,
nnu iiiat is to can nuu ituiiuu mm mini
ulate tho faculty of recuperation.
Thoso who belicvo in the existence of
a special system, or scries, of tropic
nerves will not object to tins designa
tion of tho recuperative function as a
separate "faculty," those who be
licvo nutrition to bo effected in and by
tho ordinary innervation will recognizo
tho sense in which wc employ tho term
in italics. It is through defect or defi
ciency in the vigor of this faculty that
unaccustomed feats of strength, wheth
er of mind or muscle, nro found to bo
exhausting.
Tho task is performed, but the under
lying faculty of restorativo energy, or
power oi recuperative nuiiiiion, jouaieu
in the peculiar part exceptionally exer
cised, is not in a condition to respotiu
to the usual call mado upon it. When
a man goes into training, or, winch is
practically tho samo thing, when he ha
bituates himself to the performance of n
special class of work, ho so dovclopes
this recuperative power or function
that the repair or replenishing neces
sary to restore tho integrity and re
place tho strength ot the tissue "used
up" in the exercise is instantly performed.

fore recovery takes place, and during
the interval thero will bo "fatigue" and
moro or less exhaustion.
Tho practical valuo of a recognition
of this commonplace fact in physiology
will bo found in the guidance it alords
as to the best and most direct way of
developing the power or faculty of re
cuperation by exercise. Many persons
make tho mistake of doing too much.
Kxerciso with a view to recuperation
should never so much exceed tho capa
city of the recuperative faculty as to
prostrate the nervous energy. The
work done ought not to produce any
great sense of fatigue. If ''exhaustion1'
bo experienced, tho exercise lias been
excessive in amount.
The best plan to pursue is to begin
with a very moderate amount of work,
coutinued during a brief period, and to
make tholengthof the interval between
tho cessation of exercise and tho re
covery of a feeling of "freshness" the
guidons to tho increase or exercise. Vo
do not mean that falso senso of revival
which is sometimes derived from the
recouiso to stimulants, but gentiino re
covery after a brief period of rest and
the use of plain iiutiitious food. If this
very simple rule were carried into prac
tice by those who dtsiro "to grow
strong," thero would be less disappoint
ment, and a generally better result,
than often attends the endeavor to pro
lit by exercise unintelligcntly employed.
The Signing of the Declaration.
In thinking of that instiuincnt one is
apt to call up before hiiuan August as
semblage gravely seated upon the table,
with tlie Declaration spread out upon
it, and each member of the Continental
Congress in turn taking a pen
and with great dignity adixing to it his
name. Nothing, however, can be fur
ther from that which actually took
place. Very few ot the delegates, if
indeed any, signed the original docu
ment on the -1th, and none signed tho
present ono now in Independence- Hall,
lor the very good reason that it was not
then in existence.
On July 19 Congress voted that the
Declaration be engrossed on parchment.
letterson, however, says that ftiiW
York must havo signed the original
copy of the Declaration befor it had
gono into the bands ot tno engrosser.
On what day the work was done by the
copyist is not known. AU that is cer
known is that on tho 2d of August Con-
gnss had tho document eng- ed.
