Never he, in all his life's career. Has been hadiy bit in deal or banter ; A1wav able he, to tell a cow from steer. Or n pander from apoose; or goose from pander. So he hied himself to Cumberland, On hi. i Mrt..m.'nf .nltillir And fuit relvililf. w.ik!, s..iiie andsoniHtiretwinkl'e bland. SiH.ii was lie a Hor.g Kong goose and pander inning.

Iittder grew the praise for Mrs. Hong Kong From the hurgerold, and all the town ; I'rai.-es het'er never yet from mortal tongue Fell on feathers gray, or while, or browa. Hut, alas! too lleeting ia all earthly bliss, To which mortals be to fondly wed ; For the burger found that goose of his, On her ntst on duly, Miff and, dead. Sharpest grief ami anguish, oh, so baler, l'arting tlirough Ins torn and aching breast. " Now ni darling gander is a v. irlower !" Tlius he, kneeling, wailed at goosey's nest. Not far fivni this teene of anguish Stood the goose's mate, with ienMVeeyes : "On. goosie mate.'' ijuacked he, "I languish. Oil, darlins goosie mate, I, too, will die." Louder, far more doleful rose the wailing Of the good a:id honest burger old, Counting loss, which two dead geese en tailing, Whk'h he had bought for solid, shining gold.

IlAlXKRIUCi: i SOS. There was a suppressed murmur of conversation in the drt-ssmaking dt parlmeiit of tti- lare drapery es taliiinlirnent of Mesars. Bainbridge A- Sun which the steady whir of a thundml sewiiig machines could not wholly drown. Where the presence emiiiine can be lound.-be sure the ongue feminine will be heard. Tiie uperinterluerlt of the room, understanding this, did not attempt to enforce silence, so pretty Dolly Wynn and Mary Brunton talked very confidentially in their corner of trie great room, and no one interfer ed to long as lingers were busy as rtell as tongues. And this was what Marv said. Dollie's blue eyes riveted upon the quilting on which she was at work. "I saw her yesterday when I was going out to dinner. She was jut stepping into her carnac, and Mr. Edgar himself handing her in. She look-d old nearly 40, 1 should say ; hut they say she is immensely rich, and her dress was splendid. So I suppose her money goes against her age.'' "Did you hear they Aere to be married soon ?" "Bless me ! did't I tell you that? My brother is in the stationer's where the wedding cards are being printed. They are to be married on the 7th. Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Bain- briik'e. and the card of the bride's! mother, Mrs. William Wilison. Twelve! Come, we will go for a walk." "Xo, I am vtry tired," Dollv plead d. And her lneml felt ner. never bteding tbe iudder pallor of the swtet yonnj face, the tiumb agony in the great blue eyes. When she was alone Dolly stole away to the little room where the cloaks, shawls and hats of the girls were kept, arid tlierp, crouching in a corner, hidden entirely by a liuue water-proof, si.e tried to think it all out. What had it meant? What did Edgar Ban. bridge mean in the long year he had tried by every mascu line device to win her love? She had not been unmaidenly ; hert and conscience fully acquitted her. She had given her love, pure, true and faithful to the son of her em plover; buthe had sought it, deli cately and persistently, before he knew that it was given. The young girl now sewing for a living, had been daintily bred and thoroughly educated, her father hav ing been a man drawing a salary sufficient to give his child every ad vantage. But when he died, and his wife in a few months followed him, Doliie had chosen a life of hon orable labr in preference to one of klle dependence upon wealthy rela ti ves. And j'et in the social gatherings f these relatives and the friends of former days, Dolly was still a wel come guest. It was at her Uncle Lawrence's suburban villa she had been intro duced to Edgar Bainbridge. After this she met him frequently, and in her simple dress, with her sweet, pure, lace, had worn marked at tention from him. With the frankness that was one of her greatest charms the young girl had let her admirer know that, though she was Lawrence Wynn s niece, she worked for a living in the dressmaking department of Bain bridge & Son. set EST-A.J3LISHlGr, 1827. SOMERSET, PA., WEDNESDAY. APRIL 23, 1S84. J Then he had made her heart Found with sudden, grateful joy by tfllintr her he had seen her leave the i"shoi" itGht after night, hut would not join her for fear of giving anroy- a nee by exposing her to the remarks j of her companion". After this, however, she often! found him waiting lor her at some nmnt further from the establishment and always so respectful and courte ou that she wax glad for his protec t:m in her long walk. But he was going to marry an heiress on the 27th, only a week 'awav. so he had but trilled with her 1 after all. j Poor little Doliie, crouching ('among the shawls and cloaks, felt as , .. .. ...' i I it fall etlneliina WPK front akltt. Ck hr life forever, as if her cup of humilia tion and agony was full to overflow- in ir, But the dinner hour was over, the girls coming in or sauntering from resting places in the work room, and the hum of work commenced again, as it must, whatever aching hearts or weary hands crave rest. Doliie worked with the rest, her feelings so numbed by the sudden blow that she scarcely heard May's lamentations over a sudden flood of order work that wonld keep many of them in the room till midnight. "Werll have all day to morrow if we can finieh these dresses to-night," said one ot the small squad of girls told oil' for the extra work. "Miss Brown says so. But these must be readv to deliver in the morning." Talk, talk, talk! Whir, whir, whir! Doliie folded and basted, working with rapid mechanical pre cision, hearing the noises of voices and machines, feeling the dull, heavy beating of her own heart and the throbs of pain in her weary head, but speaking no wurds of repining, excusing her pallid face by the plea of headache. It was after 11 o'clock when the last stitch was set in the hurried work and the girls ran down the long flight of stairs to plod home through a drizzling rain, following the lute snowstorm. As Doliie passed down the stair case she saw in the counting;house her recreant lover, busy over sorne account books. But fur the heavy news she had heard 'hat morning she would have Mt sure that this sudden spasm of industry was to furnish an excise for escorting her home at the unus ually late hour. But, if so, Dolly felt it but an ad ded insult to his di 'honorable con duct, and she hurried on, hoping he had not heard her step. She had gone some few streets from the shop, when passing a church, she slipped upon aUeacher us piece of ice and twisted her an kle. The suddn pain made her faint for a moment and she sat down up on the stonework supporting the railing to recover herself. Beside her, not a stone's throw away, a ark, narrow alleyway ran along the high brick wall of the church yard, and the girl's heart sunk with a chill f terror as she heard a man's voice in the alley say : ' Didn't you hear a step, Bill?" I "A woman. She's turned off! somewhre. tie ain't come yet," was the answer. "He's late to night," said the first voice, in a gruff undertone. "You are sure he's taking the dia monds home ?" "Sure as death. I was at 's i when he nave thi order. 'Send i them to my shop at nine o'clock, says he, 'and I will take them hoiwe with rue.' And he gave the address of Bainbridge it Son." "But are you sure lie will nass here?" "Of course he will. He lives in the next street. He'll come.'' "Sup e he shows fieht?" "Ym hold hirn, and I'll soon stop his fi.ht."' Every word fell on Dollie's ears clear and distinct in the silence of the night. They would rob him. these dread ful men, if nobody warned him. They would spring upon him as he passed, and strike him down before he knew there was dancer. He must not come along, unpre pared. False lorer, false friend, as she felt he was, she could not go on her wav and leave him to death. When s'ne stuod up the pain of her ankle was almost unendurable; but she clung to the railing and so limped along one street. The others seemed interminable. Often she crawled through the wet slush of the streets : often on one foot, hopping painiully alonj, till the shop was reached at lat.and the light in the counting room still burned. The side door for the working girls n.i!Liu uuiasicwcii, aim 1'i'lilC' ,..:u 1 ...,.1 1 .n: entered there, reaching the counting house soaking wet, white and trem bling, to confront Edgar Bainbridge and his father. Unheeding their exclamation of diFtuay and surprise, she told her story with white lips but a steady voice. "Waiting for me?" cried Edgar Bainbridge. "The scoundrels !"' "You bought diamonds at 'e to-day ?" asked the father. "A pernre for Miss Wilson, sir. I wish to present them, with your permission, on Thursday. Ah, look at that poor girl." For, overcame by pain, fatigue and mental tortnre, poor Doliie had staggered toward the door and faint ed upon the floor. A hasty call summoned the por ter, and in a lew minutes the porter's wife appeared, rubbing her eyes, but full of womanly resources for the comfort of the girl. A cab was procured, and clothed in dry garments, furnished by the good hearted woman, and, escorted by the porter, Dome was driven home. The next morning, walking prov ed to be impossible, and Doliie was obliged to call upon her landlady for assistance to dress, wondering at herself a little for caring to get up. But before noon, sittine in the parlor, her lame ankle upon a cush ion, she was surprised by two gen tleman callers no other than Bain bridge and son in person and s Ia dy who introduced herself as Miss Wilson. "We have all come to thank you," 'the lady said, "and I have come to curry you home with me. These gentlemen owe you their litei ; I owe you tny diamonds." "But what did you do?'' asked i DoIIie. , We captured the robbers by a i . - masterly stratagem." said the old gentleman." Edgar sauntered past the alley-way with a revolver all ready in his hand, while I, with three policemen, went round and entered the alley softly behind the villains. Taken by surprise, their retreat cutoff, they were easily made prisoners. Yo understand, wo could not arrest them unless thy actually attacked Edgar. As it is, however, there was a very pretty lit- 1 tie tussel before we came up. Bless me, ear child don't faine he's all right !'' "My fort !" Doliie murmured. "I inrainnl mv nnble last niolit It rue trk etiiri tnmut it flint 1 tot rlmvn on the church wall." "You didu't cjnie all the back with a sprained ankle?"' "Yes, sir." " "You are a htroise !'' cried Wilson. "But my dear." and way Miss here the heiress drew near to Doliie and took her hand in a close clasp, "we have beeu hearing this morning a nretty little love story, of which you also are the heroine, and I have come ta see if you will be my guest until Thursday, and then make poor Edgar the hapniest of men by as sisting at a double wedding."' Dollie's eyes, slowly dilating as the lady spoke, were open to their fullest extent as the climax was reached. "Edgar!" she said. "I thought she was to marry you on Thursday? ' A musical laugh answered her. Calling the gentlemen at the same time from the window, where they had sauntered during this little scene, Miss Wiisan loeked at them.

His father replied that unless he came home on the next steamer his al lowance would cease, and he need expect no more help from him. The son replied that he would stay, and the father became angry and wrote to his Japanese friends tuhave noth ing to do with the young man.

A South American Snake Story. Iu Paraguay, at Guaza-Cua. a wo man going to bathe in the lake laid her child down under a neighboring tree and walked down to the water. A giboia, however, was on the look out for prey at the shore, sprang at her and seized her before she could escape. Soon aftei wards a horse man passing near heard some cries, and on examining around saw the child alone under the tree. Suspect ing some disaster he rode down to the lake and there he saw a hvge snake swallowing the woman, who was already drawn in up to the waist. Hastily tving his two las soes together, the man threw the noose over the woman and under her arms, and spurring nia horse, sue ceeded in drawine the unfortunate woman's still palpitating body from the throat of the disappointed mon ster.

Tbe recent death of Harry Packer revives the memory of his good fa ther, Judge As:i Packer, the simplic ity of his life, the admirable waye in which he trod and his evet-to-be-re-membered liberality. Both the Packer boys, Robert and Harry were treated like equals by their father and mother. In the little village where this good old man lived there was a summer hotel, which was pat ronized considerably during the season, young Harry Packer often taking his meals there. A young girl named Lockwood, the daughter fa very respectable citizen living near the village, came in to ossiat waiting on the table. The frequency of Harry Packer's meals at the hotel attracted some attention and his brother Robert, or "Bob.'' as he was familiarly and affectionately called by almost all who eyer know him, said one day before the fattier and Harry at the I breakfast table, that Harry was sweet on a little girl down at the hotel, and that was the reason he did not comu home to his meal' regularly. Harry colored up a little and after they had finished their breakfast the old Jude seated him self in the front porch, which over looks Maucli Chunk, and gives such a magnificent view of the Lehigh Valley, the moving boats and trains which his own industry had created and brought together, the old gen tleman said : "Harry, who is the girl Robert refers to?"' "Miss Lockwood, father, the daughter of a man vou kntjw yery well." "Are you going to marry her Ilar rn ?" said the Jude. "I have some notion of it father,"' said Harry. "We'd, wait till I go down and see her," said the Judge, and picking up his old white hat and cane, the Jude quietly rambled down to the hotel and asked for Miss Lockwood. She innocently came into the office of the hotel, with her dining-room apron on. and seated herself beide the Judge. Just what he said to her, or she to him will never be ex actly known unless she tells it, but when the Judge came out he wes smiling, and appeared mighty well pleased. He went home and found I Harry still sittii on the porch him. By this where he had left time the Judge's face had resumed . , , . . i 119 sr:lTe ...

The saving, too in the smail seed (the latter being unfit for market) will be considerable. A good sod, in ground not subject to standing watT or usually very moist, is the best lor this crop. Barn yard ma nure spread over the ground and raked in every row, and not plowed too deep, is best. Rows or drills we think, are to be preferred, and they should be wide enough apart to ad rait the plow after the vines have become too larsje for the cultivator. All seed should be spread upon the barn floor for two or three weeks be fore planting, to admit of the eyes getting a little start which will reduce about that time in advancing the maturity of the crop. Should the season be favorable the potato crop at this lime is as cer- tain in affording a satisfactory yield as any omer crop upon me iarm, and in some respects it is the most profitable.

There is an old proverb that runs something like this : " Early o bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." We veuture the assertion that many a hale constitution has been irretrievably wrecked by trying to conform to the foolish advice of this silly ola saw. As to making a fel low wise by jumping out of bed at 4 o'clock in the morning, the old crone who invented this couplet did not know that Socrates. Solon, Demos thenes and all those old wise heads of Athenian fame sat up until long after midnight alongside a tallow dip, wre.-tling with the Greek verb, and th n laid in bed until after the sun's rays had dispelled the fogs of the Mediteranean and their Xantip pes wakened them up with a club to come to breakfast. Modern examples are, likewise, not wanting that will knock the wind out of this inflated saw so quick that it will look like a balloon jerked through a cyclone. For in stance, there is Tom Ochiltree, or Horizontal - Tariff - Reduction Bill Morrison. Who can count the sleepless nights and drowsy morn ings they have passed through ? It goes without saying that early rising never made them healthy, wealthy or wise. If there is any one thing wore detrimental to a fellow's health than another, it is after he has been up late at night seeing his girl to be routed out of bed at I o'clock next morning for an early breakfast be cause some crazy member of the family wants to catch the morning train. We don't particularly object to any man getting up et-rly in the morning if hf feels like it, or if it is necessary for him to do so, but it is the height of folly to wake other people up o,it of their sleep when it h unnecessary and when an hour or two more sieep wouitt ami eneugii to their mental activity and physical energy to make up twice over for the time slept away.
