You should consider tliat, Becky." " Xo one to take care of us," echoctl Becky, standing still. "O, Billy, I didn't think of that." Mr. Harewood was frying doughnuts over the great cooking stove in the back kitchen. An immense blue and white checked apron enshrouded her spare form, ami a jmrket handkerchief con cealed her hrtir. Mrs. Harewood was not pretty at her liest; in this uniform she was hideous. . " Seventeen eili teen nineteen," said Mrs. HarewcMMi, fishing tlie brown curls of paste out of tlie boiling liquid.

Xobody wants ua." " I want you," said Michael Harewood, his heart giving a great jump as he saw Kate's old look shining out of the wist ful, upturned lace of the child. " You bhall be my little ones henceforth." omer SOMERSET, PA There was no lack of talk and gossip in tlie neighborhood when Michael Hare wood left his brother's house and set np housekeeping for himself in a little un occupied cabin just on the verge of the woods, with the Hale children as pro toges and companions. Michael Harewood was an artist by profeion one of th.we erratic, irregular geniuses who seldom make much money, yet possess natures of genuine gold. He mid little attention to the buzz of the neighbors, the sar vastus of his sis-ter-iu-Iaw, and the criticisms of the world in general, but painted serenely on, dis posing of his pictures at ludicrously low prices as last as they w ere laid off his easel. " For it isn't as if I could wait a good chant," said he. "They must sell at any figure ; the little people can't starve." sk) the three led a strange, eccentric life. Little Becky swept and dusted. Billy brought water, weeded the onion beds and made himself generally useful, and Michael Harewood did all the rest. When there chanced to be meat enough for three he ate and was thankful. When there was not he made a meal off vege tables and told the children it was for his health's sake. "lon't you love Uncle Michael, Becky," said the little boy one niirht w hen Mi chael had tucked them safelv in bed and heard their simple prayers. " Yes," said Becky, rearing up in her little iwtch work -covered nest. And when I grow up I mean to marry him." Michael Harewood, smoking his pipe under the window lielow, heard the lit tle voices, and his heart grew soft w ithin him. "God bless the little ones!" lie mur mured. "And iod bless Kate wherever she may lie 1" Kate was nearer than he thought " Have yer heard the nes?" said the widow Castleberry to Mrs. Harewood. " Kate Hale's come back. " Humph !" was Mrs. Harewood's com ment, "A bad pennv always returns. Who does she suppose is going to run af ter her now ?" " Ah, but," said Widow Castlelierry, wagging her head, " Yon didn't hear me through. She's a w idow, and she's rich as Cru-sus." t " Xo !" said Mrs. Harewood. "It ain't possible." " But is is, though," said the widow. " Wears diamonds as big as dew-dmps, and a black siik dress as will stand alone for richness, and has her maid as genteel as the Queen of the Cannibal Islands." "Ah, dear, dear!" said Mrs. Harewood. Wonders will never cease. Them chil dren will be brought up like a prince and princess, now, I suppose. I 'most wish I'd taken thetu myself, as Michael want ed me to do." For once the tongue of rumor was cor rect. Kate Hale, now .Mrs. Alden Aruiit age, liad been, in very truth, left a weal thy widow, and she had returned to her native land to adopt her brother's or phaned children. Kate had been pretty as a girl as a woman, set off by the ac cewions of wealth, she was royally beau tiful. Xor was she devoid of feeling. When she first came into the presence of the artist whose magnanimity had saved her brother's children from the j.oor house, she knelt dow n and kissed his brown hands with tears. " Kate ! Kate !" he cried, recoiling, " What are you doing ?" " I can't help it," soblied Kate. " You are so kind, so noble. What would my poor little ones have done but for you? And when I reme'iilier bow I treated you" " We wou't recall that, Kate," said the artist, quietly. " But I have grown to love the little ones dearly. I do not wish to part with them, although I feel that yon have the btt right to them." He was standing with one hand on Becky's golden head, The child glanced eagerly from one to the other. " Couldn't Aunt Kate come and live with us, I'ncle Michael?" said she, with a sudden brightening uu of every feature. The eyes of the elders met Michael's sad and kindly Kate's full of sudder. tears. " Ah, my child," said the former, " I asked her that iptestion once, a long w hile ago and she said, Xo !" " But if you were to ask me again, I should answeryou very differently," cried out Kate. her hands. " I bhall never ask it again," said Mi chael Harewood, gravely. "Then I will," said Mrs. Ar.uituge, gt ing up to him and putting her hands in his. "lear Michael, I have h-arned now the prioelesw value ot w hat I once reject ed your true, nobie heart. I love you will you repulse me now T' " I was going to marry I'ncle Michael myself," said Becky, thoughtfully. "But may lie its best that Aunt Kate should have liim after all." " I think so," siid Blily. Endorsed by the M. D's. A. M. Robinson, Druggist and Apothe cary, Bangor, Me., in a letter dated July 1, 1SS4, says: " I have had many pre scription for tii!mre's Aromatic Wine from one of our best physicians, who learned of its virtues from those who had used it." Xo remedy ever produced has met with such marked favor fr.)m the medical profession. The Company cheer fully furuish any physician a sample of their Aromatic Wine, and not one of the many hundreds ho have given it an ex amination has ever failed to endorse it as a valuable and reliable remedy. All over the country leading physician are pre scribing it, particularly for the numerous ailments to which females are liable. They know there is no purer, safer or more reliable remedy. The (iilmore Remedies are Sir sale by Biesecker A Snyder, Mammoth Block, Somerset, Ia. All Meoical AirrinKrnEs agree that catarrh is no more nor less than an in flammation of the lining membrane of the nasal air passages. Xasal catarrh and all catarrhal affections of the head are not oiseasea of the blood, and it is a seri ous mistake to treat them as such. Xo conscientious physician ever attempts to do so. It is held by eminent medical men tliat sooner or later a specific will be found for every disease from which hu manity suffers. The facts justify us io as suming that f " catarrh at least a positive cure already exists in Ely's Cream Balm. set ESTABLISHED 1827. , WEDNESDAY, JONES LIFE INSURANCE. When the life insurance agent corner ed Jones out in the corn-field the other day and persuaded him that a $-,(XN) pol icy was just what he needed in order that his friends might reverence his memory, there was not a man in tlie state who was on better terms with the world in general than was Simon Jones. But the agent had not been gone an hour before everything seemed changed. Xot that any of his friends or family had ever intimated that a sum of that kind would help assuage their poignant grief when be should have shuttled off tii is mortal coil, yet Jones could not ban ish the growing idea th.it it would be a fine thing to have five thousand dollars in clean cash. He had taken out the pol icy in his wife's favor, of course, for he would have told you an hour ago that such women as .Sally Jones were mighty scarce. But not it seemed to him all at once that it would be rather unfair for Sally to be covortin' 'round with all that money while he mouldered away quite forgotten by them all. To lie sure he was strong and healthy not a better man in the county, 'twas said but, then, Sally was strong too ; she would be sure to out live him sure to get that five thousand dollars and be a dashing yonng widow like Simon has seen and always detested. Sally was not very stylish or dashing at present, certainly. Pinion could see her from where he was at work, hanging out the weekly wash, with a screaming baby uniler one arm. But, then, who knew how much style -Sally might devel op if invested with such a magniliceut sum as five thousand dollars? He unhitched bis horses, and drove slowly to the house, with a growing con viction that he was not long for this world. His solemn face at dinner called forth remarks from the kind hearted Sal ly, and then it came out about the policy Simon had taken that morning. Sally was delighted. " Five thousand dollars," she said, smiling into Simon's gloomy face. " Tliat would be a nice sum for me and the children in case you should be taken away ; nothing like providing for a rainy day." " You wouldn't git it unless I died," snapped the irritated Simon. " 'Course not, which I hope won't be for a long time yet," replied Sally; " but still it's a good thing. Xow, there was Lee Buxnes, who died, an' his insurance was two thousand, an' whatever Mary would a-done without that money is more " If you think I'm such a weak shake down as fee Barnes, you're greatly mis taken," interrupted Simon, angrily. "He never was no 'count, an' his wife was a Uantin' "round tryin' to git married again 'fore he'd been dead six months! Inn't hold np theiu Barnes for no pattern to me! " j Sally was astonished at this outburst from the generally good-natured Simon. " I never said you was like Lee Barnes" slie retorted, " I said he left his wife two tliousaud dollars insurance when he died and he did, too." " Well, who cares if he did ? " cried Si mon, angrily, rising and leaving the kitchen in a huff. He was convinced at once that Sally would much prefer that five thousand dollars to him, alive. " That's tlie way with women," he muttered. " All thoy think of is money ; and I've always been a good husband. Xolssly can't say I haven't." The fat that neither Sally nor any one else had ever disputed the fact did not occur to the misguided Simon, who went alsiut his work nxsidy and silent, his mind filled with bitterness toward every one. aJlv marveled some over Miuonsj queer behavior, but finally concluded something had worried him, the horses may be, one of them was rather inclined to balk, he would be all right by supper time. But supper time brought no cliange, nor the next day, nor the next, and Sal ly's questions only seemed to anger him. "Are you sick, Simon ? " she inquired, tenderly ; " or have you heard Irnd news ? Simethin's botheriu' you ; what is it?" " I tell you there ain't nothin' the mat ter," replied Simon, sullenly, sitting down in a chair in which some of the children had just upset a cup of water. He spring to his feet so suddenly that Sally under standing the cause, laughed long and loud. At another time Simon would have joined in this harmless niMh, but now, considering himself in the light of a mar tyr, he only gaited eontemptuouslyiipon the irreverent Silly, who still giggled be hind her gingham apronJ " ( h ! you can laugh," he sneered ; " yon've nothin' to trouble yon and when I'm gone you're sfe." " Where you goin', Sim?" cried Sally, eagerly, forgetting her laughter and fail ing to see the significance of this cutting remark. That Simon standing there be fore her was seriously ta'king of dying never occurred to her. " Where you go- ! in', Simon?" she reiterated. " Vause if yt n're aoin' down to Snyder's, I promis ed Maria some of them crooked-necked sqnashes out in the lot, an' yon can take 'em over it " Simon waited to. hear no more, but flung himself off, muttering " Hang the women, anyhow ; none of em got a bit of sense." So for more than a week things went on in this cross-grained way. Xothing pleased Simon any more, his appetite failed, and he scowled so continually that it seemed doubtful if his fiice ever would straighten out again. His one thought was of that five-thousund-dollar policy and the pleasure it would bring to others when he could take no part in it. Sally at fast began to see the reason of Simon's strange mood, but she wisely kept her own counsel. A plan formed itself in her mind, however a plan over which site often smiled when about her work. Xow the policy had not arrived yet, but would in a few days. Accordingly, one morning as Sally was busy churning on theiorch while Simon sat whittling in dejected silence beside her, a buggy stopped at the gate, and from it alighted a spruce young man whom Simon instantly recognized as the insurance agent. He eame briskly np to the porch. "Good morning, Mr. Jones! Fine morning, this ; I have brought you your policy ; it is all complete with this ex ception, aa it ia in favor of your wife, here," bowing to Mrs. Jones, who had stopped churning, " it will be necessn ry AUGUST 24, 1887. for her to sign it (here producing pen and ink). " Will you, my good woman, be so kind aa to affix your name ? " Xow Sally resented being called " my good woman " in that manner, she hated agents generally and this one in particn lar, for hadn't Simon acted like all pos sessed ever since he came bothering round. Here was the oppotunity she craved. Taking the policy which the agent extended, she unfolded and glanced at its contents. " So this is my husband's life insur ance ? " " Yes ma'am." " A nd it's for five thousand dollars, ain't it?" " Yes, ma'am." " In my favor?" " Yes in your favor, certainly," replied the agent. " Xow you see " "Xever mind, sir," interrupted the irate Sally, " I want to tell you tliat I don t want no five-thousand dollars, when Simon dies, nor I don't want no insurance policy either. Simon has acted like a fisil ever since he took out this tarnel old thing ; thinks I want him to die so I can have all that money to have a fine time with. I don't believe I'd ever get five cents, anyhow them insurance compan ies always busts fore a man dies ; anyhow I wouldn't live with Simon another week if he kept this. You understand, sir, I don't want no policy, nor Simon don't neither." And with a dexterous twist Sally tore up the offending iaper and toswed the pitKvs into the yard. " But uiadam, let me tell you let me j explain ; surely there is some mistake," j liegan the chagrined agent, but Sally cut him short. " I know there's been a mistake," she said, "and I've rectified it look out, sir, this cream may splatter your clothes" as the dasher flew with renewed f igor. The agent turned to Simon, w ho had j enjoy the cool, invigorating air that rush- j of this point hejr-l.itel the f 1 lowing in been a silent spectator of this scene, i es np the pipe. One of the strangest cident : ir, win you permit mis ; is it to be as your wife says? Siuiou smiled in a sickly fashion, and taking out his wallet extracted therefrom a five dollar bill and handing it to the agent said: "Take this, sir, for your trouble, but as for the policy, I guess we'll let it be as wife says." The agent took the money and his de parture at once. After a moment's silence he turned to his wife and in a subdued voice asked : "Hadn't I better finish that ehnrnin', Sally?"- " I don't care if you do," mid Sally. Fighting Fish. The male stickleback is a prodigious warrior, and when he meets a rival of his own kind he engages withjiim at once in deadly warfare. Their battles, says Mr. Darwia are at titties tlesperaUt,.for these puny combatants fasten tight on each other fw several seconds, tumbling over and over ag lin, until their strength ap pears utterly exhausted. Bold and pug nacious as they are, however, it is only my lords who thus fiercely contend with one another. Their demure little mates remain always perfcctlly paciffc, gentle, 1 and even tempered.

It is ; luring the moment of battle, and just be- j fore and after it, that the colors of all fighting animals liecouie invariably most intense. The reason is plain : battle is joined just before the mating season, and " before the face of maidens and dames ;" anl, as in human tournaments, the ladies stand by to applaud the conquerors and to reward their progess. They are them- I ical ones, havse shown that as to preval selves the prize of the encounter they j ent position the popular lielief h.is a cer- stimnlate. Besides, the highest physical vigor and the highest excitement bring out the greatest beauty of both men anil animals. The angrier you make a man drill the more vividly tinted are his cheeks and calosities. The frilled lizards and flying dragons glow with all the j lvrightest colors of the rainbow when you ' tease or annoy them. The tnrkey pock swells his crimson wattles and spreads his rnfiled feathers to the utmost at sight of a rival or mischievous boy. There is a little hot-tempered fish known as Brlta pnipuuc and kept as a sort of domestic pet by the Siamese vmtich as the CliLstian English gentleman of -W or oO years since kept fightingcocks) to display its prowess for the edification o the Mongolian in telligence. " When in a stiUe of quiet," says Cantor. " its dull colors present noth ing remarkable; but if two be brought together, or if one sees its own image in a looking glass the little creature becomes suddenly excited, the raised fins and the whole body shine with metallic colors of dazzling beauty, while the projected gill membiane, waving like a black frill round the throat, ad. Is something of gro tesfjneness to the general appenranee. In this state it makes repeated ilarts at ib real or reflected antagonist But both, when taken out of each other's sight, in stantly bct-ame quiet." The fighting fish es, as the Siamese call them, are kept in globes like gold fish and fed from time to time with the larvar of mosquitoes. The Siamese are as wild after their fish tights as the Malays are for cockfighting, and 'often stake large sums, or even the free dom of themselves and their families, on the prowess and skill of a particular betta. The license to exhibit fish fights fann ed by (tovernment and brings in a con siderable revenue to the King of Siau. Striking Fact in Havana. A most noticeable thing in Havana is the universal and almost constant use of tobaixo. Americans have made some progress in the weed, bat they are mere novices compared with the people of Cuba. Except the churches, no places are sacred from the use of tobacco. The Cuban smokes as he drives yoa to your hotel ; the landlord as he shows you to yonr room ; the waiter in the interval between the courses ; the banker as he cashes your draft ; the physician as he times your pulse ; the priest the moment he leaves the altar ; the sexton as be digs the pave ; the undertaker as he drives tlie hearse to the funeral. Ordinarily the corpse does not smoke. He A Wonderful Well.

The people near by have Uen in the habit of going and sitting about the well in summer time to 1 things is the fact that the current of air ebbs and flows like ocean tides. From 10:1" t: M. a current rushes out of the pipe with a sound that resembles the noise made by a locomotive blowing off steam an.l so loud that it can lie heard for forty or fifty yards. At IO.lo p. M. theovertlow of air ceases and a strong suction sets in which lasts for the next twelve honrs, this ebb and tl iw continuing day after 'lay, and it has been observed by horse men that whenever they get in the neighborhisd of this well strong mag netic forces are felt and sparks are given off if the horse's mane is touched. Recently man from Sierra Blanca was sitting close to the well, and on tak ing out his pocket-knife he found a nail w hich he liad in his pocket clinging to Use knife. He held the knife in the cur rent of air and found that the magnetic property increased. Several weeks ago Superintendent Judy held his pocket knife in the current of air for f. .ur min utes, and the knife is still strongly mag nethted from the effect. The outflowing current of air is believed to possess cu rative powers. Its eiticacy is to be tested by experiments upon cases of paralysis nd other diseases.

Itiey are a pecuiiar species of plant, called the compass plant tht pilot weed or polar plant, and have been known for gener.it ions to the West- em hunter, although the scientific world has known them but a short time. The edges of its leaves are said to be always pointed due Xorth and South. An au thority states: "Repeated oWrvations upon the prairies, with measurements by the compass of the directions assumed by hundreds of leaves, especially of the rad tain foundation in the fact." Captain Mayne Iteid mentions it in one of his books as follows: " We had a guide to our direction unerring as the magnetic needle. We were traversing the region of the polar plant, the planes of whose leaves at almost every step pointed out our meridian. It grew upon our truck, and was crushed under the hoofs of our horses as we rode onward." The traveler Burton also refers to it : " While in the damper ground appeared the polar plant, that prairie compass to plane of w hose leaf ever turns toward the magnetic meridian." Another writer says: "Fortunately none goes to the prairies for tlie first time without being shown, in case of misha, tlie groups of compass weed which abound all overt io plains, and the broad flat leaves of which jsiint due north and south with an ac curacy as unvarying as that of the mag netic needle itself."

What was it? " I dug a well about forty feet deep the first season I was there and put down a wooden pump. It happened it was made out of a small cotton wood log which was a little green, and the soil at the bottom of that well, forty feet from the surface, was o fertile that the pump took root, and it also gre up and branched out, and now while my children play in a swing attached to one of the branches I pump water through the hole which still remains in the trunk." ttnkuta Bli.
