Colonel B igshot rnns a weekly

called awsy to New York on lumi

Now the colonel knew that said
assistaut had tho cheek of A brass

still, after being iu tno city nbout a

"Why f asked Bagsbot.
"Road that 1" and the ticket agent
shoved a crumpled "Union" into bis

Thoro was a paragraph, markod ,
as follows i
"ll'tilro'til Sum. Tho bandy

It s tuy cussed assistant s work.
"I don't care whose work it is,"
growled tbe agent, "but

Bagshot didn't reply, but snilo I

Ho bad not gone half a Wick bn-

".Now that s nice, am t it. snying

"It's that reckless fool whom J
loft iu charge," groaned tho colonel
' I'll mako it all right, M trsh," and
Uagshot scurried on again, only to
be coufrouted by Major Illira.
"Colonel I'' uttered Klini, in bis
doepest voice, "this is villainous I

Then uagsbot started again, uy

Buy A Homo.
Hon. Claorgo Ilristow gave good
advioe in a t.peech on tho subjoot
of ' Home." Ho said every man
should ou his borne if bo can.
That philomphy which tells a mart
to drift over this uncertain Hie
without a home of bis own, is wrong,
Tbo mnn who owns not bis own
borne is like a ship out iu tbe opon
sea at tbe hazard of tbe storm. A
man who owns bis homo is liko the
ship that has arrived in port and is
moored in a safe uariior. uuo man
should no more be contont to live
in a home that is not bis own if be
oan build one than one bird should
take the risk of batoning in snothor
one's nest i and, for my own a cot
tage than to hire a palace. would
say to every man, buy a home if you
can, and own it. If a wind-fall bas
oome to you buy a home with it. if
you have laid up money enough by
toil, buy a borne, if you uavo made
money iu stocks buy a borne. Do
not let anybody tempt you to put
all yonr earnings back iuto tbe pool.
Take out enougu to buy a nome auu
bny it. Put tho rest book if yon
will. Gamble on it ir yon must i
but bny tho borne first. Buy it and
sell it uot.

hand I Mako much of it whilo yon
bavo that most precious of all gifts,
a loving mother. Boad the uufnth
otnuble lovn of those eyes ; tho kind

again tbe inexpressible love uud gon-
tlenons lavished upon you, which

Often do I sigh, iu my struggles
with tbo duik, uncaring world, for
the sweet, deep socurity I felt, wbon,
of an evoning, nestling in her bosom,
I listened to somo quiet tulo, suiU

untiring voico. Novor can 1 forget
her swoet glanco cast upon mo whou
I appeared asleep i nover but kiss of
pence at night, tears uavo pupsod
away since wo laid bor beside my
father in tho old chtiroh-yurd i and
still bor voico whispers from the
grave, and bor wutchus over mo, its 1
visit spots long since hallowed to
tbo memory of toy mother.
