HONESTY THE BEST V0Uc4?
The Duke of Buwluecli, in oneVff his
walks, purchased a cow in the neighbor-
linod of Dilkiet, which was to be sent to his
p'nrenn the follow ins morning.
The ne.tlilay tho Duko in his morning
dress, cilcd n boy IneflVrtually attempting
to drive the animal forward bi itsdestiua

bawled nut to him;
"Hie, mun enmn hero and gie's a h.m
wi'lliis beast, dime here, mun, and help
ii, an' as sure a, anything I'll give you
alfl get."
.The Duko went, lent the helping hand,
"And now,"saiil the Duke, as they trudg.
e l along, "how much do you think ye'll
I Tor the job?"
"I dluna ken," said the boy, "hut I'm
sure n'sniiiclhin', for tho folks at the big
houso are good to a'bodies.-"
As they approached tho house the Duke
itisappcnrcd from Iho boy, ami enter,rf by
dlll'erent way, Callins the butler, he tiulh
sovereign in his hum, saying, "Give that
to tho boy who brought the cow."
Tho Duke, having returned totheavenue,
was soon rejoined by the boy.
"Well, how much did you gel?"
"A shilling;" said tho "boy, "an' there's
hall "'it to yc." . .. ' '
But you surely got ruore llian a shill-

THE LAWS OF LIVERY. . .,
Differences between Iho livery stable
man and the hirer of the horse nro very
re-jnenl ami generally, though the owner
of the. animal may get pecuniary redrew,
t is the poor brute that mostly sliders. Ti
ride or drive a borrowed or a hired 'l.orse
to the devil has become a common sayjngi
One or two recent English cases are worth
con.mcnting upon, as showing that that
very much abused person, Iho livery stable
keeper, has certain right, .
A man hired a horse anil carriage at Ips
wich, with the understanding that he
would drive Ir, Colchester and return (he
me day, a distance of twenty miles each
way. Hid person wlm had the horse and
vehicle drove not only to the place Sfiecified.
but to ii town ten miles further on work
ing tho horce sixty miles wjthin tho sjieci-
tiuilUnient hiring. The horsa died iifxt
nay. The veterinary surgeon was of the
opinion that tho unimal had beei; over-
Irvcn. Tho defendant's counsel argued
that lliea'grnemciil was to drive "through"
C'd,:'lieiler, but Iho Jury nid not think so,
and the I'laintilf wou the case, with a Ver
diet nf $21, tho yuliio of the horse.
Deviations from a fixed rould between
t.vo places, when a. horse is hired and in
jury is sustained bv the livery keeper, may
bring u penalty un tho hirer, Between
New York and n place called A t)ie distance
niay bo thirty miles, and the livery stable
keeper know the dbtance. But if tin)
hirer takes round about ways to reach
them, increasing the distance traveled
knowing tho proper or shorter, he is uoless.
he has specified la a go-as-you-please metli
od of journeying, liable to damages. As lo
'damages to vehicles, so constant with -rk
ward drivers, it would be, quite wise if i
tanft'iif charges, were put up in: livery
stables. Then a man would know before
h started what bis rig was wohh.Louxll

Tho winter scarce was over,
Some Bnowflakes tarried yet,,
When In a garden corner
A tittle rout I set.
The friend who sent it promised
Tbattt should surely bring
To me'some fragrant treasure
Before the flight of spring.
And patiently I walled,
As April caihe and went,
And May taught all the song-birds
A song of sweet content.
But bonny Spring departed,
And June the roses brought,
And, save two slender green leaves,
The rootlet gave tne' naught.
And so my mcm'ry lost it,
And summer also passed,
When in the garden corner,
One day t I ml ml, at last,
A very pearl nf lines
Ami snow-white flower gem
With conscious beauty trembling
Upon a graceful stem.
Oh I weary hearts, take courage,
With Faith and Patience watt;
Though sown to blossom early,
Full many joys bloom 1 1 It-.
Tho blessing, due in spring time
May linger on the way, m
And like my pearl of lilies,
Muko sweet an autumn dav.

I am 'afraid I shall have to incnr an

Chesnington, good-naturedly.
II mghty Madge Lambert flashed htm

He rowed a mile or co out, straight to

atone of tbe fishermen's cottages, about
three miles fr.rtber down."
Secretly Cbessington was delighted nf
the prospect of continuing in ber so

"Yes, I know what yon mean, I tbitili
The pluco we call Glen Inlel?"
'Yes. And you ain't imagino lion-
lovely it is there old fashioned, ratber
crowded quarters, to be sure, but with
not the fuiutcst vestige of anything like
stylo or amusement.''
"And you actually are boarding there,
Miss Lane? Why didn't you come to one
of tho hotels? The Sea Spray, for in
stance, is a good house, aud a pleasant
company there.
Jessie laughed.
"Not II I came to the seashore to en
joy myself, nud get away from fashion
and tires, and such things.
'And did you succeed ia enjoying

'Admirably since five weeks ago.
You an- tho first devotee of the world
that I have seen since I came to Glen
Iulet.
Her gray eyes sparkled mischievously.
"Is that really so?'' he asked, lookiug
at her. "I hope, though, yon will not
condemn yourself to such isolation any
longer, n't least from me. May I not
joiu your solitary amusement? I promise
to bo most obedient."

And she looked at tho little barefnots.

said Jessie, gaily. "Please promise me
you 'won't tell anyone there is nnjbody
down at the Inlet, will you? Occasional
ly fishing parties come to arrange with
Uncle Ben horrible, isu't it? Bull al
ways coutrivd that uo one sees me, for I
am determiued not to be drawn into
fashionable society this summer if I can
possibly help it. I don't want to see
company ."
"But you 'don't regard me as com
pan?''
He looked with admiring, respectful
eyes straight in her o.wn, nnd that ex
quisite Utile flush warmed her lace
agaiu,
"No, I do not regard you as com
pauyl"
Alter that it was all np with Rupert
Ciussingtonj and be went back to tbe
Sea Spray, acknowledging that ho was
iu love tit last, aud with an uuknown,
obscure em, who, for other reasons
than her dislike for society, or for pe
cuniary reasons, was summcriug at Glen
Iulet.
He liked her all tbe better for it, too.
He honored ber for ber seusibleness, uud
ha was over head oLd ears iu lovo with
tbe dainty, gray-eyed goldeu-baired

Tbe nut three weeks were the most
blessed ones he had ever spent iu bis

He couliuued bis solitary excursions

bim or eutertuiu him, and bewitch him
until one day he told her he loved ber
dearly, nud that it was too oue wi,b of
his lile to havo ber for bis wile.
And Jessie, with ber lovely gray eyes

"Yes, I had resllv forgotten. Arrived

Miss Ttallerny went up to him iu her

"I propbtRy J on will be tho very first

"And she is pretty, too," Madge Lim
bert said, n llttlo venomously, ns if tt

Chessiugton looked self-possessedly up

"I urn glud you Ihiuk Jessie is pretty.
I think sho is the loveliest girl living.
So you did not know I was engaged to

Aud then followed n sudden lull in the

HIS LAST COURT.
Old Jnr'gi) Grepson, a jtistlco of the
pence, was never known to smile. He
came to Arkansas years ago, before the
"carpet-baggers" began their reckless
sway, and jear niter ytar, by the will of
tbe voters, he held bis plice (is magis
trate.' Tho lawyers who practiced iu his
court never joked with him, because cv-
y one soon learned that tbe old man
never engaged in levity. Every morning,
no' matter how bad tbe weather might be.
tbe old mau took his place behind tbe
bar which, with his own hands, ho had
made, hud evrry evening, just ntn cer
tain time he'closed his books and weut
home. No one ever engaged him in pri
vate conversation, because he would t'nlk
to no one. No ono ever went to bis
home, rt little cottage nmoug tbe trees in
tbe city's outskirts, because he had nev
er shown a' disposition lo mako welcome
the visits of those who even lived in tbo
itumediated vicinity. His office was not
given bim through the influence of "ihc-
tioueeritig," because he never asked any
man for bis vote. Ho wo, first elected
beciuse, having once been situimoued iu
a case of arbitration, he exhibited the
executive side of such a legal mind that
tho people nomiuited nnd elected him
He soon gained tho uamo of tho "hard
jutice,"and lawyers in Arkansas referred
to his decisions. His rulings were never
reversed by the higher courls. He
showed uo sentiment iu dtuison. He
stood upon tho platform of a law which
he made a study, aud no mau disputed
bim.
Several days ago a woman charged
with misdeineauor was arraigned before
bim. "Tbe old man seems more than"
ever unsteady,' remarked a lawyer as
the nuL'Wtntd took hi, seal. "I don't
see how a man so old run stand the vex
aliens of a court much longer."
'I am not well to-day." sid the Judge,
turning to tbe l.iwyeri', "nud any cases
that you may have you will pltsso des
patch them to the lust, uud let me udd,
quickest of your ability.
Every ono saw that tbe old mau was
unusually feeble, ni.il no oue thought of
a scheme to prolong a discussion, lor nu
the lawyers had learned to reverence
him.
"I, this the woman?" asked tbo Judge.
"Who is defeudiug bei?"
"I have no defense, jonr Honor," the
woman replied. "In fact, I do not think
that I need any, for I am here to confess
my guilt. No mm can defend mu," and
she looked ut the magistrate with a curi
ous Raze. "I have been nrreittd on ii
charge of disturbing the penco, aud I am
willing to submit iny case. I am dying
of consumption, Judge, and I know that
any ruling rn.xde liy the law can have but
little effect on me;" suit she coughed a
hollow, harking cousb. and drew around
her nn old black ihal that she wore
Tho expression on the face of tbe uiagls
trate remaiuesl unchanged, but his eye
lid, dropped and he did not raise thorn
when tbe woman continued; "As I say,
no man can delcnd me. I uui too near
that awlul approach, to pas, which we
know is cvcll.ii.tius death to suml uud
