"Yes, that's juBt it ppeculatiny,' interrupted Sidney, as his friend glanced inquirinely at him. . "And you, Sidney, what will you ) "Why go to work, of course! What else is there to do ?" "Work! Sidney Coster at work! He the daintiest and most wealthy aristocrat of us all, at work ! V by the idea is preposterous and absurd." The sneeiing laugh which follow ed these words nettled his listener, and roused all the manhood within him. "And why shouldn't I work or you cither, for that matter ? God intended that all his creatures should earn their bread, and because we have always lived and grown in the sun of pleasure, and eaten the bread of idleness, is it any reason why we always should ? Out upon such ideas, I say ! and away with this false pride, that will permit a gentleman to swindle, lie, gamble and steal, and not lower himself ; but abases him to the dust if he dares to honestiy cara bis hvinc. It a all wronar. I will not be bound by ill"' He showed by his earnest look that be meant it, every word. Harts ton was aghast at sucn leveling ideas, and said : "Just as yoa please, of course, Coster. Yon are roar own master. But, of course, if you choose to put yourself down in the dirt, yoa wont expect your friends to come down to the same level. I for one would never think of associating with a man who worked for a living." Sidney Coster's lip curled in con tempt cf each a character. II irtston continued: "Why don't you go ahead, old fel low, and marry some rich girl? Y'oa are a good-looking fellow and might very easily do it ' "What an honorable thing that would be, wouldn't it? I would ramer starve man tnus aegraae my- p'-U and deoeive m woman !" "As you please. Good-day!" And one "friend 7 was gone Coster looked after him a moment, and iu spite of his brave words befell bitter against the fate that had made him a poor man. It was a pleasant lire, this tbat he had been leading, aad it was bard to rive it up. The next thing to do was to search for employment lie possessed noth ing in the world but his clothes and a small amount of jewelry relics of his former butterfly existence and a heart full of courage. He did not know how to wok, bad never at tempted even the slightest details of business, but he set resolutely about the task before him. He walked the city for days and day, but all in vain. " No one want ed him. There were plenty of situ ations, but when his qualifications were asked he was forced to tell the miserable truth and confess that he knew just nothing. IIow bitterly lie regretted now, in his hour of need, that he had not spent the nours wnicu Le bad wasted in ac quiring bis accomplishments, in learning something that would help him in his ctrait. Kegrets were age less, and be went steadily forward upon the bard path of duty. At last be lost all hopes of find ing employment la the city, and turned bis face toward the spreading Celd3, and shady groves, and content ed, peace homes of God's own land, the country, ne did not know what be should do there ; he bad not a friend in the wide world, he thought, who cared whether he lived or died. Where bis un;le the unhappy cause of bis misfortune had gone he did not know. He only knew be was alone, tired, and heart sick, and dis couraged, turning with a longing heart from the hot and dusty city streets, to the fresh, green meadows of the country. He went. For two days be tramp ed siowiy along, sick in mind and in body. He bad tried again and again xo una employment as be came along, but still the Earns helplessness ot ignorance was his bane barrier He was sick, very sick, and knew not where be might lay bis weary bead. At last be fell, and new no more. After the long blank and darkness be had a dreamy sense of a pleasant shaded room ; or open vine covered windows, filled with fresh pure flowers; of a kind hearty, rugged face that came and looked at him, and then spoke cheerily to another kind and motherly face that hovered over him oftener, and smoothed his pillows, and brushed back bis clustering hair, matted with bis restless ferer tossings ; of another face an angel he dreamed it was younger, and so fresh and sweet that the very sight of it seemed to put him far on his road to health again. This face did not come as oftea as the others. It would steal softly iu for a moment with the other faces ; and even then, if he happened to be " wonia am out again in a frightened manner, tnd as th dor passed on and he grew better, it did not come at- all ; and then be grew impatient to get well and find m here it had gone. - At last the pleasant morning came that he was well enough to walk out nd eit oa the pleasant porch ; and then, unasked by them, for they were too kind to intrude upon his secrets, lie told them all his story, -end thev il'iBlcLcJ and give Lim their warmerft isvmpatby; ltd one lace il.v r.u.L; J fresh ' two?- "se-ini3 bthd" ia .' kfamd the learr 'scrr-ae. -tre , .rert ua.-wa : ne found Lis Lavt a at tt. ceri;cr?Ct.,e:vXX, v-;tt. that fceVs e5nr4 Ll ntf m vier t Mall 5 kx: lirsr?: and h wee t Zv- U.e tea; U as.i fee iwjrrwsi r.v.N( d;r vf ti rv..

"Why do you always void me, Hattie'?' he aiked, trying to look into her averted face. She made no reply, and only turn ed farther away from him. . "Do you then dislike me so much, Hattie ?". Le aeked reproachfully. The look she -flashed upon him was direct denial of the charge, and yet sbo would not speak. "I love you so dearly and so ten derly that mj whole life mast bo a sadene if you do not love rue in re turn. You do not wish my life to be that, do you Hattie?" ' The answer came so slow ana faint that he had to bend his ftce close down to hear the soft little whisper. "o; not that!" He bent 60 low that his face al most touched hers, and then he saw it was rosy red, with now and then a tear sparkled upon it like a dia mond. He thought she was pained and in distress. "I am so sorry, Hattie. I did not mean to give you pain." She stopped him with a little fin ger pressed upon his lips ; tnd n6w she looked up, grown bolder in her joy. "Can you not see that I am only happy? that I am crying for that very happiness?" and she smiled lovingly through her tear?. "You love mo. thea, darllag?" he asked as he drew her closer to him, and bent dowa ' to look witLia her eyes. "Yes, yes ! I bare loved yoa so much ever since " - i.ver since when:" he aked, as she paused in aweet confusion, and her oM tbyness returned. ".

Of course I will 1 and glad of the chance to give bcr to so good a . husband !" said Farmer Iloy?toa when 'Sidney asked him for his prize ; and the good wife spoke likewise. Ana so the days rolled rapidly along toward the one appointed for the wedding. And on that very morning a letter came from the ab sent uncle. It was as follows : - Dear Sidney: ' - "The speculations that we thought bad ruined you have turned out splendid. I have in my possession over one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars, all yours. Come and take posession at ence." Then followed his uncie's address and signature. Not until after they were married did he show the letter to his bride. She rejoiced at his good fortune for his sake and said ; "You were poor, Sidney, when I married you; o you see I loved you for yourself alone." His rich friends would have come back to him, but they found no wel come. He had tried them, and they were found wanting. . Hw to riaBt Tre.

Chicago ,2'imes. - A Dtnfrrn Vaprr. The green paper used to wrap lozenges, sold in shops, railroad cars, and on street corners, ha3 long been suspected to contain arsenic, and with the view ot ascertaining tee facts by analysis recently purchased a roll of lozenges covered with this paper. A qualitative examination of this paper afforded all the characteris tic reactions of arsenic and copper. The wrapper contained twenty square inches of paper. Of this sixteen were taken for qualitative analysis. The result of the examination showed that this portion contained 2.41 gains, or 2.94 grains in the whole of the wrap per a quantity sufficient to destroy life in an adult person. Children in all parts of the country are allowed to purchase the lozenges covered with this poisonous paper, and the roils often put into the bands of infants as a plaything. As everything goes in to the mouth of young children, it is easy to see that no more dangerous substance can paS3 into a family than these packajr.es of confectionary. It is o.uite probable that instances of poisoning have occurred from this cause which have been of a serious or fatal character. There should be laws prohibiting the use of poisonous paper for any purpose. Perrbfron and Struu IIorc. Withia the past few years quite a large number of stallions of these breeds1 have been brought to this country. The preference of most of our breeders is given to tfcem decid edly over the Clydesdales, and they are used with grand success upon mares of all breeds and sizes. Even the little Indian Pony mares will bear to great Percheron stallions foals which as yearlings are as big, or big ger, than themselves, aud it is abun dantly proved that size is not an es sential qualification in mares to pro duce large colts by these horses, contrary as this is to the views which prevailed a few years ago, namely, that the best system of breeding was to put, roomy mares to well-knit and compact stallions smaller than them selves. The demand in all of our large cities now for heavy, quick-stepping, draught horses, a pair of which will step off with five tons over ?. good pavement, ia so great that our farmers must be wide awake to meet it. Such teams will bringe $?00 to $1 200. They ought not to be put to hard labor before they are five or six years old; but from the time they are three until they are old will do all the farm work and not feel it. As this style of horse increases in the country, the desirability of keep ing the mares for breediag will lead to our using heavier teams for farm work, which will be greatly to our advantage. Keeping Winter Apple A member f the Michigan logical ' Society stated, at Pomo a late Adrian meeting, that he was very successful ia keeping winter apples, and had secured sound, fresh fruit in May, by the following treatment: He picks the fruit in October, and places it ia heaps in the rcbard and covers them with hay. ..These heaps remain untouched till December, the slight moisture of the earth and the few inches of hay. preventing any iu jury to the apples, even during sharp freezes. They are then assorted and packed in barrels, which, after head ing up, are placed ia a cold cellar, which is kept at a temperature of about thirty-two degrees, and if it should happen to bo a few degrees lower for a short time, the protection of the barrels will prevent any injury. They come out sound in the spring. Cat TbU On.
