From the shady farm-house door, Mother watches, till no more She can follow out of sight They are gone, her heart's delight. Can you see them sitting there, On the benches hard and bare, Tired feet swinging to and fro, donning o'er her lessons low? Sitting, at the noon of school, By the gurgling streamlet cool, 'Along the brakes and bending trees, Hating up their bread and cheese I Or, with merry laugh and shout, When the boys and girls go out, Books and pencils cast away.

The Ttacher. THE FIYE-DOLLAR BILL. BT O. AUGUSTA CHKNF.Y. Joe Maxwell lived In Chelsea, lust across the river from Boston, but attended u pri vate school in Boston. Every morning, therefore, he had to cross the ferry between tho two cities. One morning, Just us he was stepping ofl' the boat, he chanced to look down, There, al his feet, was a bank-bill It was a templing sight, and Joe lost no time in picking It up. Nobody else saw It, and, as he thrust it into his vest-pocket, he felt that there was no one to dispute with uim the possession of It. "I will keep it," be said. "I don't know who dropped II, so of right it belongs to me." The fact was, that Joe wanted to purchase two or three articles; among them a band- some knife, which' the possession of this money would enable him to do. Ho received from his father a weekly al lowance of a dollar for his own purposes, but somehow it was always gono before the end of the week, and there was nothing left over for any article he wished, to buy. Joe was right about the money belonging to him, incase he did not find the owner after proper inquiry. But, unfortunately for him, a person whom lie had every reason to believe to bo the owner immediately appeared. A woman, poorly-dressed, wearing an anxious look upon her face, who had alio been one of the passengers on the bost, re traced her sleps and began to look carefully about her. It was evident that she had lost some thing, and Joe's conscience told hlm thst it was the very bank-note which he had Juit put into his pocket. I ought to ask her what she has lost," was the prompting of Joe's conscience, but here hit sel6shness interfered. He was afraid that she would answer, "A five dolar bill," and then good-by to the new knife and tho other articles which he wished topurcbsse. Joe's face turned red, but he closed hie lips firmly, turned his fsce away from the poor woman, and walked quickly to a horse- car, which would convey him to the door of his school. If I should say that Joe felt comfortable, I should misrepresent the facts of the ease. For a boy with a five-dollar bill In his pocket, he felt very uncomfortable. He was fortunate enough to havea cpnscience,whlch would not be quiet when be did anything mean or wicked. Sometimes boys manage to get rid of this disagreeable monitor, end take advantsge of It by doing mean things without materl ally interfering with their personal comlort. But such boys ought to bo pitied and Dot congratulated. Joe did not succeed quite as well aa usual in bis recitations that morning. Somehow the thoughts of the poor woman, and hit own meauness, would intrude aud distract his attention,to that be sometimes answered at random. At re,cess,Joe had half an bourto'hlmself. He knew where there was a cutlery-store, and be went there at once to buy a knife. Though he knew it to be mean, he had fully decided, now, to make use of the money, "I couldn't find the woman now, If I wanted to return the money ever so much," be said to himself. "Besides, how do I know that It was hen T I dare say the had lott sometbiog,but it might have been a five' cent piece, or a thimble); anything else. It isn't probable that a poor woman like her would have a fire-dollar bill." So Joe reasoned, and he tried very hard to convince himself that be was right, but be did net succeed. He had a conviction, In spits of all the reasons be could muster, that the money in bis pocket did really belong to the poor wo man, and that the lots of it would entail suffering, or, at least inoonranlsnee, upon her. "But I can't return it now," he said la himself, doggedly, "and If I am obl.gvd to keep It, I tuiy at well use 1L" I Bo Joe ttoed in front of the window of the cutlery-store, and looked to see if the par tlcular knife he had seen there the day be' fore was still unsold. There It was, aa bright and handsome as ever, and Joe's eyes glistened as he saw It, A friend of his In Chelsea had a hand some knife, but it was not as handsome as this. Now, there is no great merit In possess Ing an article superior to those owned by one's friends, but still It is agreeable, aud Joe resolved to buy the knife, whatever It cost. lie went Into the store, and asked i "What is the price of that knife in the window." "Two dollars," answered the clerk. It was rather more than Joe meant to pay. He had hoped to get it for a dollar and a half. "Can,'t you take less t" he asked. "No," answered the clerk, shaking his head. "The knife is a very handsome one." "I know that) but (hen two dollars is a large price to pay." "We havo cheaper knives plenty of them. We can sell you one for a half adol lar, ifyou wish." "I wouldn't carry a fifty-cent knlfel" said Joe, contemptuously. "Quite right," said the shopman." Such a knife will do for a poor boy, but you can afford something better!" Joe was foolish enough to feel flattered by this remark, and he asked to look at the expensive knife. When be had It in Is hand, he wanted it all tho more. "Can't you take a dollar and a half 1 he asked wistfully. "No, nor a dollar and seventy-five cents. We can't take a cent less than two dollars. But I can sell you a good knife fora dollar." "No, I think I will buy this," said Joe, and be drew out the five-dollar bill with a flourish. Joe put the knife into his pocket,and went back to school. Ho showed the knile to several of his Bchool-mstes, by all of whom it was very much admired. For a short time Joe felt really complacent and happy. When school was over at night, Joe went home. The next day was Saturday, and he did not go to school. He did no show, the knife to his mother, because be was afraid she would inquire where he obtained the money to buy it, and he was quite sure that she would not approve of his keeping the money. However, ho showed it to some of his boy friends, and was glad to find that none of them had a knife to compare with his. In fact he partly succeeded in forgetting the poor woman, and persuaded himself that. after all, the money was rightly his. It so happened that on this particular day, his mother bad a seamstress at work for her. Joe went in and out of the house once or twice, and just nodded to the seamstress, whom he had seen before. At dinner, which.in Joe's household came at one o'clock, his mother said : Clara (that was the name of the seam stress) tells me that her sister was very un lucky yesterday." "How is that 7" asked Mr. Maxwell. "She went over to Boston in the morning, to buy herself a new drees the first new one sbe had felt able to aflufd for a year but on arriving on the other sidehe missed the fire-dollar-bill she had saved up for the purpose. She searched anxiously for it, but had to give it up." "It was a great pity," said Mr. Maxwell, in a sympathizing tons. "Yes. Mrs. Hall is poor, and her hus band has been out of work neatly half of the last year. These five dollars were as much to her as a hundred dollars would be to many persons, and It will be a long time be fore the poor woman gets together as much again." "Perhaps the one who found the money will advertise It," suggested Mr. Maxwell. "Clara says that her sister looked In the Herald this morning, but saw nothing of it. I am afraid the money is lost beyond re covery." While this conversation was going on, Joe's face flushed, and Ee felt very uncom fortable. He could not help knowing that Mrs. Hall was tho rightful owner of the five-dollar-note be had found, and his conscience reproached him when he considered how much trouble nnd sorrow he bad brought upon the poor woman by bis selfish mean nets. Of course no one at the table bus peeled that Joe bad anything to do with the matter, and his confusion was unobserved "What shall I do 7" thought Joe. "I baye spent pert of the money. Fcrhspi I had belter not ssy anything about it," he reflect ed, but that, he felt, would be wicked. Again the idea came into his mind that he woutd put the remaining three dollars into an envelope, and mail it to Mrs. Hell. But then, of course, she would wonder whst bad become of the balance of the money. "Joe was unable to decide what be should do, and, still undecided, he left the bouse, and wandered off to a field where some of his boy friends were playing base-ball. He didn't feel so much now like showing the knife, but two of the boys had seen it, and asked to look at it again. One of them particularly admired it. - "I wish I had such a knife," he said." Do you knew where I can get onei" An Idea came to Joe. "You may have this for two dollars,exact ly whtf I paid for It," he said. "What! Have you got tired ofitsosoon?" rfNoj but I have a particular use for the mopcy. If I sell it, I shall buy another, as soon as I can get the money." "I believe I will take you up ifyou are realty in earnest," said the other boy, "I am In earnest) but I shall want the money this afternoon." "Are you afraid to trust me 7" "No j but I need the mouoy to-day," "What foi; 7" "That is my secreL" "All right) Here Is the money. Now give me the knife." Greatly to his satisfiaction, Joe now found himself able to pay back the entire five dol lars. He hastened home and hurried up to the sewing room, where his mother and the seamstress were sitting. He was quite out of breath, and panting with his exertion. "Miss Clara," he said, eagerly, "here is the money your sister lost." "Where did you And it?" asked bit mother io surprise. Then the story came cut, and before be knew it, Joe had told the whole, blaming himself manfully foryieldtngtothelempU' Hon of keeping the money and not return Ing It at once to the woman whom he saw searching for It. "How glad my poor sister will be I" said the seamstress, Joy fully. "Now she can buy the dress she wsnts so much. How good o! youtolaheU back r "Don't praise me," said " Joe. "I'm ashamed that I ever thought of keeping it.1 "I am delighted that vou finally decided to do right," said bis mother. She kissed Joe affectionately, aud it thai moment be did not regret the loss ot his beautiful knife. And I am glad to say he has uot rogretted it since. Golden Dayi. OLD BTtXE COUllTINft. Thirty years ago, soys the Free Prw Michigan people were a (rsnk and truthful set. Strangers could come here and trade horses with their eyes shut, and breach or promise cases were unknown. Folks meant what they said, and when they gave their word stuck to It. Exactly thirty years ago a widower from New York Stale appeared lu Lansing on business. That same business carried him over to DeWitt, eight miles away. While on the way he stopped at a log furm-bouse to warm bis cold fingers. Ho wss warmly welcomed by the pioneer and his wife, both of whom were well along in life, and after some general talk the woman queried : "Aln I right thinking you are a widow er?" "Yes." "Did you come out here to fibd a wife?" "Partly." "Did anybody tell you of our Susie 7" "No." "Well, we'ye got as bouncing a girl of 22 as you ever set eyes on. She's good look ing, healthy and good tempered, aud I thiuk she'll like your looks." "Where is the?" "Over In the woods there, chopping down a coon tree. Shall I blow the born for her?" 'No. If you'll keep an eye on my horse I'll find her." 'Well, there's nothing stuck up or affected about Susie. She'll say yes or no as Boon as she looks you over. If you want her, don't be afraid to say so." The stranger heard the sound of her axe and followed it. He found her just as the tree was ready to fall. Sho was a stout, good looking girl, swinging the axe like a man, and in two minutes he had decided to say : 'Susie, lama widower Irom Now York State; I'm 39 years old, have on, child, own a good farm, and I want a wife. Will you go back with mo?" Bhe leaned on the axe and looked at him for bnlfa minute, and then replied :' Can't say for certain. Just wait till I get these coons off my mind." She sent the tree crashing to the earth, and with bis help killed five koons, which were stowed away in a hollow. "Well, what do you say ?" he asked as the last coon stopped kicking. 'I'm your'nl" was tho reply; "snd by the time you get back from DeWilt I'll have these pelts off and tacked up, and be ready for the preacher I" He returned to the house, told the old folks he should bring a preacher back wltb him, aud at dusk that evening the twain were married. Hardly an h ur had been wasted in courting, and yet be took home one of the best girls in the State. TABLE MANN CUS. A writer in the New York Iribunt pre faces sundry directions ss to the formation of table manners by the remark that a habit creates a sentiment. A mother seeking to develop good table manners in her children will first provido good table appointments and carefully-prepared and daintily-served food. These will inspire In the children respect for the lablo and good manners will follow. The writer then says : As to the table appointments. The cloth should be scrupulously clean ; though it be only coarse material; nicely starched and ironed, and put on straight, the folds paral lel with the sides of the table, and the table with the sides of tho room. The napkins, of however coarse material, should also be clean, carefully ironed aud put on in place. The arrangement of the dishes on the table should bo uniform, regular and taste ful, each dieb, plate, spoon, glass, being in its appointed place, and kept there. As to tbe food. It is Impossible to feel nolita and well-mannered nrip unnfllntjihlA. hsoarse, ill-prepared, Indigestible food, Eyery mouthful of it provokes ill-humor, resent' ment, dissatisfaction. Tbe house-mother who insists on good table manners must give her family good food. There is no need of sour bread, muddy collee, soggy potatoes, heavy pie crust,leatu- ery batter cakes, unesternem hlmselt would forget his manners if compelled for any lengta oi time to suosisi on sucu a aiec As to methods of eating. With the assit Unco of the knife and fork, the food mav be so divided as to relieve the Incisors of tbe heaviest part of their work make small mouthfuls a pleasure. The grinders indicate that grinding in the mouth is a part of the process of nutri tion. Animals destitute of grinders bolt their lood It is not fitting that human beings should eat as dogs do, since they have each a "mill" ready Tor use which dogs have not. The lips are so constructed that the noise of the grinding, which is intolerable to ears polite, may bo effectually disguised. This Is a point that cannot bo too urgently In. sisted on. Food, whether liquid or solid, must be conveyed iuto the mouth and from the mouth downward silently. Tbe position at the table should be un constrained and easy, the person sitting erect or slightly bent forward when eating, so thst the mouth may be directly above the plate : tbe arms should be held at the side, not extending at right angles with the may. The elbows should be kept off ot the table. Leaning back in one's chair or dancing on the lees of the chair is a grevious violation of table ellquttle.permilted only and wrong ly to uaii cnimren. Tbe mouth and fingers should be kent. during all the process of eating, absolutely clean. The dainty eater will keep his plate in order and leave it so, with knife and fork laid together across tbe plate. The use of the fork to the exclusion of the knife in carryiog foul to the mouth it iu tisted on. Leave-taking Is admissible only by per mission of tbe hottest.
