So she took ' Bessie ' out of the box, and ran to the carriage door with both of these elegantly attired young ladias in her arms. little Maud LKrvereil sat among the cushions, so covered up with embroider ed afgtians that her poor withered feet and limbs were concealed from view. But her face was very pale and her eyes were unnaturally briirht, and Milly's heart ached to see her. There ws a long consultation between the little girls, during which Mr. Dever- el1 tjt,keJ wuilingiy on, and finally Maud concluded to take both dolls, as the easi- est means of settling the difficult v. 1 "I like you," said Maud to Miily. ; u Kiss me, picas1." j So Millv kiied Maui, and ran back in ; great triumph.

At the end of the year Mr. lAevervll went dow n into the linen room, where Mrs. Trevanian was sorting over a pile of i snowy double dama.-k napkins.

She Got the Flour. A bright litlle woman recently gave ber forgetful husband the following let ter, with instructions that it should not be o-ned until lie got to his place of bus iness : " I am forced to tell yoa some thing that I know will trouble you, but it is my duty to do so.

You must not censure me too harshly, for yoa mast reap the result as well as myself. I hope it wont crush yoo." Here he turned over the next page, his hair slowly rising. " The flour is out ; please send me some this after noor. J thoaght that by this method you would not forget it" Tlie husband telegraphed forthwith fir a barrel of the best flour in the market to be sent home iostanter.

Dillard. The news had reached Georgia of the wonderful gold discoveries in Cal ifornia. Among those w ho were full of the ex citement were MoCurry and L'illard. They had perfected all arrangements to go and were bidding the family good-by, when Inllard faltered. The tearful eyes of McCurry 's young sister touched his heart, especially as she was weeping for him and not for her brother. Throwing down the bundle he held in his hand be declared that he would stay if the girl would many him. To this he cheerful ly agreed. So he remained a lieorgia turner, while McCurry jumped into the stage coach and was borne away. Sine that time he had never been heard of. It was with mingled feelings. therefore, that IHllard started to read the letter from his old comr ide. The let ter was a solid one. McCurry stated that he had worked against adverse fortune, delaving writing to tlie folks until he could strike it rich, but every year found him striking it poorer and now, old, fee ble and poor, his great wish was to look once more upon his native hills ; that he could not do so unless he was sent mon ey enough upon which to return. Inl lard read the letter to his wile and sons. "We mast send him the money." said the old man, so a row and a mule were sold, and the money went on its mission aToss the continent. Several months brought another letter in which the old man expressed his gratefulness for the kindness done him, but he was too sick to travel then. After tliat no more was beard froia him until September 17th, when a large official en velope was received at the little potof fice. It bore the inscription of a strange hand. The neighbors one by one drop ped by and told IHllard about its arri val. It was too late for him to get it then but he was on hand early one Monday morning: As he read it his hands trem bled. It recited that James McCurry was dead ; that be wished to test the fidelity of bis sisters family ; that their prompt answer to bis appeal had moved him and that, by his w ill his property in California, valued at $1,6UU.'X)0, was willed rn equal parts to his-foster, her husband, and their two sons. The two yoang men are going to California to su perintend the property, which they in tend to convert into cash, and return to rts irgia- At the Seal Islands.

You would hardly believe that they could 1 the same animals, for they fairly glisten with a rich steel and Maltese gray lustre on the back of the liead, the neck and along down the spine, which biennis into an almost snow-white over the chest and on the abdomen. Bit this beautiful col oring in turn is again altered by expos ure to the same weather, for after a few days it will gradually change, so that by the lapse of two or three weeks it is a dull rufus-ochre below and a cinemas brown and gray mixed above. This color they retain throughout the breeding season, up to the time of sliedling their coats in August These " bachelor " seals are, I am sure without exception, the most restless ani mals in the whole brute creation w hich can boast of light organization. They frolic and lope about over the grounds for hours without a moment's cessation, and their sleep after this is exceedingly short and it is ever accompanied by ner vous twitching and uneasy muscular movements. They seem to be fairly brimful and overrunning with spontane ity and to be surcharged w ith fervid elec tric life. Another marked feature observed among the multitudes of " holhischick ie" which have come under my personal olwervations and auditory, and one very characteristic of this class, is that nothing like ill-humor appears in all their play- S ing together. They never growl or bite, i or show even the slightest angry feeling, j but are invariably as happy one with an I other as can be imagined. This is a very I singular trait. They lose it, however, j with astonishing rapidity when their ambition and strength develop and carry f theta in due course of time to the rook- I T1 . .1- ine pups ana yeanintrs nave an estiecial fondnessforsnortirgon the rocks V- . . .

OCTOBER 19, 1887. A Way to Make Money. j I The Been on HtrolJ has been try i nit to j rater to the tastes cf iss sundav readers by consulting a number of rirh men as fc the easiest wv of jrcttina ri-h, and nrin- tine tbeir answers. Barnam said it ws j qnite simple ; all yvro have to do is to i spend less than von earn, and to " shun rum and tobacco." General Bu'Jers ad vice was to buy improved real estate, partly for ca-h and partly for small notes this being the way he became rich him wif. Mr. Faxon, the temperance advo cate, advised the practice of "sobriety. indastrv, economy and faith I nines." Mr. Erastus Winan warned young men anainst spei-uiation. and maintained that " legitimate trade, the honest, plodding rMitine of life, was the true bais for go.l f irtune," and that if a young man does not obtain riches throueh these, he will never deserve them. Mr." Asa Porter ad vised the young man to "select a bosi- ness that iscongenial to him," and, while carrying it on. to be " industiious, close, teniperate and patient" Mr. Mrller Pills - bury, -the flour king." of Minneapolis, rw-oiitinended exi-etslinely bar! work and a just estimate of one's own abilities temperance and economy. Mr. Kussell .Sure, for his part, advised the young men to commit to memory, as he did, the advice of Polonius to Laertes, and try to live up t jit All who do this, he says, are as certain to became wealth v as " the night is to follow the .lay." It will be easily seen that none of ther eminent men had a word to say to people eaaer to gvt rich, beyond the common places of worldly philosophy except perhaps. Gen. Butler, who did descend into details. But ofcourse, nobody who values tlie General's a Ivice on any sub ject supposes that he owes his compe tent fortune," as he once called it, to in vesting small savings in improved real estate. The fact is. that barring the men who makes fortune bv a single "big strike" in some sort of speculation, there how he got rich that is, what the 'juali ties or practices were which most aided him in acquiring wealth. A'.l mi Hion aires probably think they know, but they really do not If the best means of ac quiring wealth could be coin snun Hated to others by successful practitioners, the art of making money could and would be taueht in hools and colleges. There would be professors of money making as there are of "journalism," but they w.Miid have to he rich men, because a poor man teaching poor people hiw to escape pov erty would be a somewhat ludicrous ob ject. The fact that there are no such schools or colleges is, in truth, the best jswsible proof that the art of money ma king is unteachable, because there is no art in which the demand for instruction : is so widespread and so fierce. j The reason why the causes of success j in getting rich cannot be !tnmonicated ) is probably the same which prevents the I cause of success in anv calling from 1.- inj comoiunioated. To sav that a man; succeeds through industry and intezritv j is a mere platitude. Thee qualities may help a man a great deal, but they are ev- identic not essential, for a great manv men succeed without them, and tens of thousands who havethera do not sucoeeil i In fact we -annot put our finger on a single qu;ility or gift which ii necesnary to make a man a millionaire, nor tan we say what tlie exact combination of qual- ities or gifts is which makes a man sac- ' ceeil in anything. It appears to be jast ; as hari. if we may jndse from the num- tieroj failures, to succeed at the bar, or in medicine, or divinity, or soldiering, as in money making.

A t!,.m w ith th ? 1 money making talent knows "a g.l tbing;"that is, a desirahie investment or venture, when he sees it. How be knows it he cannot explain. In tict, there is no talent which is so deeply hidden away in the recesNes of a man's mental and moral constitution ; there are no trustworthy outward sims of it ; neither temperament nor education indicate it or produce it This, as we have said, is in some degree i true of talent in all callings, but in a much smaller degree in al! others than in what is called " business." In every calling success is a personal attribute, something which Comes out of a man's brain and cliaracter, and which be can neither share nor transmit nor explain. All he can say is that he somehow knew how to do things well, and when to do them and when to let them alone, an 1 th 'reby he tpt rich. An Important Element Of the success of Hood's Sarsaparilla is the fact that evey purchaser receives a fair equivalent for his money.

For real economy, bay only H'jotfs Sarsaparilla. Sold by j all druggists. j In many localities Hood's Sarsaparilla is in such general demand that it is the j recogniaed family medjeine. People ! write tliat " the whole neighborhood is tak ing it," etc Particularly is this true of Lowell, -Mass., where it is made, and where more of Hood's Sarsaparilla is sold than of any other Sarsaparilla or blood purifier.

The Administration has but little love , ft the Union suidier. but it wants his vote, and hence the attempts of Mr. Cleveland's henchmen to pose him as ; ' """ !' ale mercliao.ti.se as the soldiers friend.

If the rebel M.iiers, then he certaiuilv has a valkl claim to the dis- tinction. In that event he neeis no argu ment, no proof, fur it is as self eviilent as ! the opening proritkin in the Ieclar- i tion of Independence. But if he means j the I'nion soldiers whoii he hasdi-soose-l from plai-e and insulted in his officia! 1 siiessifge. he had better stop fooling, for J such pretensions are only another insu't I to those who wore the blar. His t.re- tensions are Isised on his pension record and his frien.ls make the aertioa that he lias been More generous to the I'nion soldiers than any of his predecessors. But the facts, and f.'cts are stubborn things, put a different aspect on tlie mat ter. Mr. MePherson, whose authority as an official annalist and statistician is un questioned, shows that this statement is fale alike in assertion and in su,rstion. Tiie truth is, that President Cleveland approved aiout two-thirds of the bills pasisl. vetoed over one eighth and dod ged as to the remainder of them. As to the fk'se corar-arison suggested, it is de-moll-hed by the sset that Oeveland's approvals were but ftss out of 14 pas.! are thus 1J0 less than Grant's and Hayes" combined aud is lens than Arthur's. j Grant vetoed only eight bills out of tlie 4'-Ki jit-wed during his. administration. Hayes vetoed none Arthur none. We thick Mr. Cleveland had l-t!er stop this. He cannot lee!eted on that platform and in the soldier ":Hisiness he mas: draw his votes from the rebel ele ment where he has unspairimrly distrib uted his patronage. Let him Js.k fr vote w here he has dispensed his favors from that South which was as solid Cr trea n as it is for the I'Ciom-y. The Union soldier has taken his measure. i ;md lie must wear the uniform of his f division. The Soldier's Friend !

That is the Free Trade plan, j .nd it i good to know that it is the Ad ministration plan. This means free wool free iron-ore and pi irr.n, free salt coal j lumlier, flax, hemp, coffee and hundreds ot otner articf. those wno are enga ged in or who are patrons of wk li ind'is tries mat determine whether they are ready for such a slaughter. As the pro posed free list would reduce the receipts only ?jn.ftOA)0, the remainder, or iV u ri.rmo w ould have to be taken from arti- les that exist because of the protection that is now offered them. This demands i a reduction of :i0 per cent ail along the line, and it is self evident that such a j reduction on manufactured articles would ! in effect render the Tariff worthier for ! the defence of home industry. That is precisely the aim and intent of those who j have framed thisilatfirm, and it is the S aim of Sjieaker Carlisle. Mr. Morrison ! and their Free-Trade associates, who j number about four-fifths of the Ierno- crstic nepresentatives in Congress.

You do not see her fiaunt j ing in brilliant plaids when they happen to lie in style. When high hats are "in" I she does not pile berg so high that it sweeps thecobwelsi from the sky. She loes not wear an exasrserated bang when the bang is in vogue, nor the biarest bus- ; tie in town, nor the longest train to her tea gown, nor the greatest nn!ubr of bangl.-s when Wiigles reicn. But be cause she does not clatter and giggle and make herself conspicuous in horse n;r or at matinees ; does not announce lr convictions on ali occasions and all sub jects, and profess her admiration at ev ery hand's turn, .t mast not be supplied that she has no kleas or convictions or enthusiasms : that she moves along like the tar in the heaveas, which olieys the laws of gravitation without selecting its coarse, or objecting to its orbit She is quiet becanse she has no power to make herself heard, to change lr conations or because she is maturing that power.

I had frequently ioticel that, when encaged in deep thouirht particularly at niirht. there tdh to be something like compression of the eyelids, the upper one especially, and the eyes themselves were apparently turned up rarl, as if looking in that direction, says a writer fn I "hitiuU-'t y..nrwi. This invariably occurred, and the moment that, by an effort, I arrested the course of thought i and frt-l the mind from the subject ! with which if was engajjed, the eyes r : sumei their natural position and the ' compression of the liils ceastsi. ! Now, it occurred to me one night tliat ; I would not allow the eyes to turn up ' ward, but kept them determinedly in the opposite position, as if looking down; i anil having done so for a short time, I 1 found that the mind did not revert to the j thoughts with which it had been occu- pied, and I soon fell asleep. I I ried the i w , . 1 after an experience of two years I can truiv say that unless when something really annoying or worrying occurre.1, I have always tieen able to go to sleep very shortly after retiring to rest. There may occasionally be some dirfi cuity in keeping the eyes in the position I have descritied, lwt a determi nsl ef fort to do so is all that is requireil. and I am certain that if kept in the down 1-s'king position, it will be found that conipiwire and sleep will be the result Sensations at High Altitude.

It was not long before a rest of ! eiirht minute" was required for every four ! of Climbing, and after half the ascent j was made we rested more frequently and j without exerting onr-clvs to sit down.
