There never was such an ill-tm-
rwvvwf- croM-rrained old " man in
this 7orld as Dunn tan Read. He
lived alone ia a square red-brick
hmiM in the micMle of a desolate
fiat field ; the garden around it had
falljn into a dreadfhl state, no gar
dener bud entered it for many rears;
it was fall of tall nettles and of long,
straggling, un pruned bashes. The
windows were crimed with dust.
never baring been cleaned within
the mem or of man ; but the most
miserable-looking object in the
place was Danstan Ileade himself
His face was withered and wrin
kled like a piece of yeliow parch-
' ment ; his shabby clothes hung
Loosely upon his skinny limbs, his
- great shaggy eyebrows lowered like
thatched eaves over his sunken eyes.
He lived quite alone with one old
man, who was almost as old and as
grim as himself, and who cooked,
and swept, and washed for him en
tirely without assistance from any
female whatever for if there was
. one thing on earth that Ir. Reade
hated and abominated ii was the
whole race of womanlwod. The
sirhtofaDetticoat was odious to
him : the sound of a wr man's voice
made him shudder. His servant
hud strict orders never , on rain of
instant dismissal, to admit one of
them within his doors, it was cur
rently reported of Mm that for
twenty rears he had ml exchanged
one word with a living woman. He
was looked upon as a hardened old
miser by the people in the neigh
borhood, and there was not a man,
woman or child, for miles around,
who would not cross over to the
other side of the road ooner than
comr face to face with this ill-favored
and sour-visaged man.
Eut Lottie Harfield, from the end
of her father's garden on the sunny
hillside above the village, used to
pit and look down pitifully and sor
rowfully upon the gloomy red-brick
house in the valley below, where old
Mr. Ileade dragged out his unlovely
existence.
She was the softest-hearted, gent
lest little thine in the world, with
child like, clear blue eyes, and fluffy
hair of yellow gold, and she had an
innocent fearlessness about her that
seemed to belong more to the child
hood she had left behind her than
to the womanhood upon which
she had fairly entered. fc?he had al
wiyr a kind word for everybody,
and when she heard people talking
of that dreadful miser Ileade, and
telling stories of his bad heart and
evil nature, she would sigh piti
fully, and say :
Poor old man ! it does turn peo
ple sour when everv man's hand is
against them. Perhaps he is not so
bad after all"
"But, Miss Lottie,", objected a
friend who was present,' "what do
vou say to a man who perfectly
hate.? the sight of a woman ?"
"Perhaps some woman has treat
ed him badly years ago ; and no
one has ever been gentle and kind
to him since, to wipe out the bad
Impression."
"Lottie always makes excuses
for everybody," said her father,
smiling.
Lottie ' went on walking up and
down the garden walk from which
she could see Mr. Reade's house,
musing to herself upon his misera
ble and lonely fate, until she be
came quite possessed with the idea
that somebody ought to do some
thins for him.
"Papa," she said one day, in pur
suance of this idea, "may I ask Mr.
Ileade to dinner some night ?"
"Mr. Reade! Good gracious! Lot
tic, you must be mad ! Do you im- i
agine that he would come ?" and her
father laughed aloud at the bare
idea of such a guest.
"Well, I don't know. If he were
asked nicely he might come, I
think."
4iMy little girl, you might ask
him from now to next Christmas,
and you would only get rough word3
for vour pains."
"But you would have no objec
tion, would you, papa, to his dining
here?"
"None whatever if you can get
him to come," answered Mr Har
field, laughing, "but I don't think
there is much fear of that ; and
now I must be ofT. Good-bve, mv
pet" v ,
Mr. Harfield was a doctor and his
high gig was waiting to take him off
on his daily rounds. He kissed his
daughter and went away laughing to
himself over her last new fancy, and
Lottie was left alone.
Then what does this remarkable
young lady do but go up stairs and
array herself in her very prettiest
dress a soft creamy foulard, cover
ed with wonderful fluffings and
puffings of lace for Lottie was an
extravagant little person, and herj
father spoilt her dreadfully in the;
matter of dress ; then she toe k her i
hat and her sunshade, and sallied
forth thus equipped to call on old
Mr. Reade the miser.
"Is your master ia ?"
"No, be be not," replied the aus
tere guardian 01 Mr. Reade'B d omi
cile, gruffly, and preparing to slam
the door in the unwonted visitor's
face. ' - . . .
"Will.be be out long?" says Lot
tie, perseveringly. ,
"He might be and he mightn't,"
was tne unnopelul rejoinder.
w ell, 1 shall come in and wait
for him till he comes back."
how this took Timothy's breath
away. Xo such audacious proposal
had ever been made to him before.
No, that you cant do! Mr. Reade
uont allow no women-folk within
his doors to pull things about and
muss up his papers and books !"
Oh ! you -needn't be afraid of that;
I shouldnt think of touching bis
things. Here is half a crown for
you, and please show me into Mr.
Reade's room at once.",
Something in the young lady's
tone of authority something too,
perhaps, in the sight of the shining
half crown she put into his not ' un
willing hand took all of the brava
do ana bounce oat of old Timothr.
He touched bis fchajjgy forelock
meekly, and show 3d Miss Harfield
into the one sitting room his master
used in the house. 1
"WelL youll have to take the
blame if the matter is angry," he
crumbled, "for I dont know what
ever he will say to me for letting
you in. It is quite against all the
rules."
"Ob, I donl mind that at all ; he
may scold me as much as he likes!"
said IotUe, cheerfully, then her
quick eye looked about the dingy, '
uusiy,
and carried 'un out -1 should hare
stood on my head if she'd ha' told
me. . Khe had that war with her!"
Then Lottie took a brief survey of
the chamber in which sue found
herself. She was too trae a daugh
ter of a scientific and well-bred man
to attempt any tidying or dusting
of those dearly belived books and
papers, which she found fcere ia as
great profusion as in her father's
study at home. But somehow her
fairy touch we it round the room
and brightened it !Sb . straighten
ed a rumpled chair cover, put back
a useless Hool into its place, wiped
the pens afresh and laid them in the
pen rack, then she opened a win
dow and let a little fresh sunshine
and balmy summer air into the
mustiness of the stiflingly close at
mosphere. In mskinff her little
rounds she glanced, without touch
ing them, at the books and papers,
and she made the discovery that
they were all on one subject chem
istry. line did not of course understand
quits what branch of the science it
was tnat air. neaae was Biuuywg,
but evidently he was engrossed in
some deep researches, and this made
- a 41
her quite cneertul and nopeiui.
"I knew the roan was not so bad
as he was Dainted," she said to her
self, joyfully.
"A man with one absorbing taste
or pursuit has always a vulnerable
rint I shall get at him somehow,
think." '
Then she sat down in tho one
comfortable arm-chair in the room
Mr. Reade's own particular seat
and waited lor nis arnvai. eu,
he had to wait a Ions time. The
davwas warm: a bee hummed
drowsily in through the open win
dow ; there was a distant eheep-bell
tinkling on the hill ; and presently
Ixittie fell fast asleen in old Dun-
stan Reade's leather-covered arm
chair. That was how he found her,
when, quite unprejwired for any
such marvelous dwvery having
let himself into tl.- nouse without
encountering Timothy Mr. Reade
came in by himself into his 6tudy.
Timothy, to be sure, heard him
come in fast enouch. but he was in
a dreadful fright of what would
happen, and kept himself quiet and
still in the kitchen awaiting the
event
Well, Dunstan Reade came in,
and there was a white mass of soft
silk and lace curled up in his arm
chair. He did not quite see what it
was at first
"Bless my heart !" he said below
his breath, and came nearer. Then
be saw a white hand and wrist
thrown back over the arm of the
chair.
"A tramnn The imtxrlinent bag-
quite welL I hsve quite as
brains as you have proba-
gage !"
In another minute he would have
shouted for Timothy, have raved
aloud at him and his unconscious
visitor but something arrested
him. Perhaps if she had been
awake he wou'.d have turned her
out summarily and roughly, refus
ing to listen to what she had to say,
and only furious with her for being
there. But she was asleep, and she
lay so still, and looked 6o perfectly
lovely in her childlike unconscious
neps,"that somehow he stood still
and said nothing, only looked at
her. Her bright hair made a sort of
sunlight in the room, her little pink
and white face looked so refined and
sweet amongst the unlovely sur
roundings of the dreary place ; her
very dress so dainty and so pretty ;
the little hands flung back cureless
ly, with their blue veins showing
throuch the cieamy skin ; all was
so unlike anything he had seen for
so long ; she looked like an exotic
flower falen by mistake into a cab
bage garden.
Dunstan Keade tiro a long
breath, and sat down opposite to
her, with his eyes rivited upon her
face. It did not occur to him to
wonder who she was, nor where she
came from : he onlv knew - that he
was gazing on something that was
passing fair.
"If she wakes she will spoil it all!"
he said to himself. "I haven't 6een
such a Bight as this for yeare not
for years 1" and he sat quite still,
hardly daring to breathe lor fear he
should wake her.
. Old Timothy, who had crept out
side the door to listen to what would
happen, could not make out the ab
solute silence within the room a bit,
and stole back to the kitchen again
quite puzzled and perplexed.
Presently something the con
sciousness, perhaps, that somebody
was looking al her roused Lottie
from her slumber. She stirred tm-j
easily, then half opened her eyes. i
Dunstan Keade s face grew hard
and grim again. Asleep, she was a
lovely picture awake, she was
merely a noisy, shrill-voiced wo
man one of the sex he hated. She
would be horribly frightened, he re
flected, with grim satisfaction, when
she woke and found him sitting' op
posite her.
If you have seen a child awake
out of its mid-day sleep, with just a
little stretch of its arm?, and a rosy
flush upon its face, and a little open
ing of ita rose-bud lips that was
how Lottie woke. Then, when sh
was awake, she did not start up
nervously, or look frightened or
scared no, not in the least The
image of that grim-faced miser glar
ing at her did not appear to alarm
her at all. She just moved her head
a very little against the back of the
chair and smiled at him.
"Oh, you have come back, have
you T" said Lottie.
"What are you doing here ?" s.-.id
Mr. Reade, sternly.
"Well, I was waiting for you," an
swered the girl, unabashed.
"Who let you in ? Don't you
know that I oont allow women" in
here a set of baggage lazy hussies
every one of them !"
"Well, so they are you are quite
right !" answered Lottie with a little
laugh. "You see, I'm no better than
the rest of them, tor I went to 6ler ;
otherwise I should have dusted youi
papers.
Dunstan cave a sort of rasa and
looked jealously around. -
.No, donl be alarmed. I . didn t
touch them I knew better; I went
to sleep. - What are vou reading all
those books about chemistry for.

"What V
"WelL so I have. I dont know
so much about chemistry, per ha 73,
but I know a ereat many other
thinrs much better than you do. If
you will teach me then I will teach
voauyouue. -
" Now this was altogether each
new view of things to Dunstan
Reade that be was quite nonplussed,
and did not know how to answer.
He fell back after a minute upon
his old line of roughness and inci
vility
"I can't stop to waste my time
talking to you. I suppose you have
come to best fr somebody ? I never
give money uway I haven't any to
give so you can go !
"Oh Avar mil don't want anr
thing at alL 1 never thought wheth
er you had any money xr no."
Well. I haven 1 not a farthing
I am as noor as a pauper ! These
books aie all I have in the world
"I dont care at all whether you
are rich or poor ! I came to ask yon
to dinner. ,
"What?" screamed the old man; he
could hardly believe his ears. - "Do
you want to insult me ?"
"Oh. dear, no ! Why should I ?"
"Dont you think I can afford to
pay for my own dinner ?"
I really never thought about
that I want you to come to .din
ner, so that you can talk to papa
and me. Papa is a doctor, you
know, and he 13 very fond of chem
istry, so I am sure you will get on
together."
"Oh ! you are Harfield's daughter,
then ?"
"Yes. I am Lottie Harfield : and
are you comine to dine with us to
night please say yes seven o'clock
sharn : auite a plain dinner, and a
talk about chemistry." And Lottie
rose to her feet and picked up her
hat from the floor preparatory to
taking her departure.
Dunstan Reade looked down at
his hands, then at his boots, then
something that was like a smile
passed over that wintry counte
nance. "I cant dine with you," he mur
mured, "it is so long so many years
since I dont know how to behave
myself in company."
"That is one of the things I am
geing to teach you," said Lottie,
laughing, and shaking out her skirt
He put out his finger gently, cau
tiously, and touched the laces of her
dress tentively, as a man might touch
a flower or a butterfly.
"Prcttv frock, isn't it ?" said Lot
tie, carelessly. "I put it on on pur
pose to come tnd see you.
"It must have cost a great deal,"
said Dunstan Reade, trying to look
stern azain.
Lottie shrugged her shoulders.
"I dont know ; papr has the bill,
I never think of that I like to
have pretty things about me, don't
you?"
Dunstan looked up into her
bright young face, and a sort of glow i
spread over his own. I
"I think so," he said ; "but 1 dont
know much about it"
"No? Well, that is another thing
I shall teach you, Mr. Reade ; look
at that butterfly that has come in
through the open window there is
something for you to look at, you
know. And you are coming to din
ner, are you not ?"
"Yes, if you really wish it," said
Mr. Reade,"quite meekly.
"Timothy, I am going to dinner
to-night," said the miser to his ser
vant "Mercy on us !" ejaculated Timo
thy fairly staggering back against
the wall.
"Go and look up in the lumber
room, in the third black box be
neath the skeleton case," continued
Mr. Reade, sternly frowning, "and
you will find a mulberry velvet
evening-? uit of clothes, and knee
breeches, stockings, and buckle
shoes go and find them, you stu
pid ! and dont stand gaping there !"
An angry stamp of the foot sent
Timothy flying up to the attic after
the mulberry suit " '
"Papa. Mr. Reade is coming to
dinner !" said Lottie to her father
that afternoon. v
"No !" exclaimed Mr. Harfield.
"Why, what a witch you are, ' Lot
tie ! Good gracious, child, what am
I to talk to the mummy about?"
added the worthy doctor in de
spair.
"Chemistry, papa. I have found
out that that is his hobby ; and give
him the best claret in the cellar."
"How on earth did you do it
cried her father.
"I really cant tell, papa," laughed
Lottie. "I only talked to him as a ra
tional being. He is only a poor, cross,
lonely old man, who wants a little
kindness to bring him out of his
narrow, selfish life.
The evening came. Mr. Reade,
very shy and very subdued, appear
ed duly in the mulberry suit. He
had shaved and brushed himself
with a care that had been unknown
to him for many years : and his
timid look at Lottie as he came in
nearly made her father laugh.
"That child,,' said the doctor to
himself, "could tame a bear if she
tried."
Lottie nodded and smiled at her
guest, and when dinner was an
nounced, came up to him and led
him into the next room herself.
Mr. Harfield, although a hard
working medical man, bad also
large independent means of his own;
he pursued his profession as an oc
cupation rather than a necessity.
Everything in his house and at his
table was of the best ; and, thanks
to Lottie, everything was also of the
the most refined. The flowers, the
silver dishes, the glitter of the glass
and china, so bewildered our friend,
Dunstan Keade, that he was quiet
meek and amicable, and as to a talk
about chemistry, not a bit of it ; all
he did was to gaze at Lottie adoring
ly, much to her father s amusement
The eight of her in her fresh . vounjr
' beauty carried him back years of
his life, and bridged over a vast
yawning space of hideous misery
and self-absorption. She reminded
him of some one in the vistas of his
life some one who had been gentle
and tender to him before his face
was wrinkled and his heart grown
hard wme one who had smiled at
him and had been kind, and yet
who bad turned away from bis love
was summoned away to a patient,
and Dunstan Reade and Lottie were
leftakd. -- - -4

her eves were full of tears, and she
was very much touched.. .
"You know you remind me of
some one some one 1 was very fond
of years and years ago : but she was
cruel to me,and I could not forgive
her. So my heart hardened and be

but you have broken the ice, Lottie ;

and the way you said it, struck
home to myself, and I felt that you
bad come to save me. I cried out
when you said you were as wise -as
I ; bat, dear, you are far far wiser ,
for vou are cood. Tell me what I
am to do. and I will do it." r
That was how Lottie Harfield
made the great conquest of her life.
Later on she was woedand won, but
nothing in her whole live ever gave
her such Durehaopiness and delight
as the thought of that poor.miserable
old man, whom sue had -redeemed
from bis existence of wretchedness
and selfishness.
Under Her auspices the red house
in the valley was cleansed, and
swept, and painted, and furnished
from cellar to garret Two brisk
neat handmaidens of her own choos
ing replaced the effete and crabbed
old Timothy. The garden was clear
ed and replanted and filled with
sweet, bright flowers, muslin cur
tains fluttered at the windows, and
the hall door, standing wide open,
seemed to invite the passing fuest
to come in.
But the greatest change of all is
in old Dunstan mmseiL ne was
really possessed of great wealth, and
now makes no secret of it He gives
argely to the local chanties, and no
one who is sick and in want ever
appeals to him in vain ; he is no
onger crabbed and rougn, butcneer-
ful and Bociable. Lottie has made
him send articles and reviews on
his beloved chemistry to the leading
scientific papers of the day, and his
name is now well known and re
spected amongst clever men. "For,"
says his little mentor, it a man has
a talent like yours, it is very wicked
not to give the rest of mankind the
benefit of it"
Lottie trots down every day to the
red house and savs she takes lessons
of her old friend ; but he always
maintains that she teaches him ten
fold more the she learns of him.
In short Dunstan Reade is a hap
py old man because ho is no longer
selfish and greedy of gam, and be
cause he has found something to
live for.
"From the day, sir," he says to
Mr. Harfield, "that I found your lit
tle girl asleep in my arm-chair my
life became and altered thing."
As to Lottie she only Bays :
"I always knew he was better
than he was painted everybody is.
If you want to do good to anybody,
assume the good in them and ig
nore tn evil."
Clever little Lottie.
What Farmer Should Ijcarn.
The farmer should study the laws
of concentration. He should 1 earn
how to -concentrate his crops into
the best paying articles. Does he
consider that butter, cheese, beef,
pork and mutton represent only a
certain amount of gras, hay and
grain that his farm produces ? That
instead of selling the raw commodi
ties, he can, by putting them into
these articles, get J much better re
turns for his products. His study
should be how to transform the raw
products of his farm into something
that is concentrated, and that will
bring him the most money. What
he raises has to go to some market
By condensing it, little freight
has to be be paid, and that much
will be sayed. A farm is not only
a farm ; it is, or should be, a factory
for changing the raw products into
articlos of general consumption that
have a commercial value the world
over that are of the best quality,
that keep well and sell well, and
brines prices that will nav well for
the skill, labor and capital employed

Cows that are compelled to per
form much muscular labor, as in
going far to pasture, or to roam
over a large area in order to find a
supply of food, or to climb moun
tainous pastures, . will be found to
give milk deficient in butter, with
an increase of casein. 1 So when
cows are poorly sheltered from tho
cold and exposed to driving winds,
the butter and sugar of their milk
is consumed by the respiratory pro
cess in the effort of nature to keep
warm. . The cattle of Switzerland,
which pasture in exposed situations
and are obliged to use much, muscu
lar exertion, yield a very small
quantity of butter, but a large pro
portion of cheese, yet the same
cattle when stall fed furnish a large
amount of butter and very little
cheese. The kind, quality and
quantity of food suppliied to the
cow, together with atmospheric influ
ences and general - surroundings,
have much to do with the character
of the milk produced. ' -, x

' Oatragea on Jew.
P1IS
LoxDojr, March 2. The Russo-
Jewish Committee has prepared
statement confirming the reports of
outrages on Jews in Russia, includ
ing many cases of murder and rape,
which the recent British Consular re
ports discredited. The committee's
statement is ' founded upon letters
received from persons occupying
hum ofhcial positions in the Jewish
community, and upon personal ref-
erence of Jewish refugees. A letter
from an eminent rabbi indicates
that steps have been taken by the
Russian authorities to conceal the
truth.

Albany, Mar. 1. The special
election yesterday to fill the vacan
cy in the State Senate caused by the
