from the chiiiiney jiots. and the window
iw kir.g icto the room was exceedingly
I dirt.-.
I It bejn to grow dark : he watched tiie
, women pullin; in their strings of clothes
: and tLt-3, !eav:ni the window, be tiptoed
'.ly, comparatively speakii-g, to bis fa-
Uu r's aide, and hxked very earnestly at
; tjiiu.
John w as Sleeping aith his mouth open
a smile curling bis hps slightly, under
' his drooping brown moustache. He was
j'ist tenty-one years older than his -n.
lie looked boyish as he lay where he
j had ll'ira himself lazily on the bel. his
: head thrown hack, his brown hairfad
; in; damply on his w hite forehead. In
hishar.d above his head he held loosely
j a Irier-wood pioe. an ! the erHifcterpsiie

' dressed in very old cl 4iies.

I ti:e rui. He U-tn to cut bis finders
j with a large bladed man's knife, and suc
' cee!e-l in niakir j a little heap of bloody
shavings on the ll x-r. It was cold. Har-
ry thoustht his lather would lie pleased
; to see a fire wLen be woke up. Aa J then
l the window rou!d be opened a moment,
! to iet out the smell of the dusty carpet
! and the suie suioke and the kerosene
j oil. The b y siie! murh innK-i-iit blood

i haniiker-hitf so dirty that itsapjiearance
j wxs positively not iii.iared by the a l ii
j tn of a little gfire ; finally he got a large
i supply -f shavings and he made a tire in
the grate. The coal he carried in his
b.r..: tram trie closet, aa be aid not care
to make any noise, and soon the fire
boned very well. He wanned his stub
by fingers and then returned to the win
dow and rubbed bis nose and cheeks
against the griiry glass.
The gihtieteled clothes were tossing
about idiotically ; the woman opposite
him in the tenement house had taken in
j the dryone.snd bad just sent out a fresh,
reeking lineful!. Harry drew several
handkerchiefs from his pocket, and de
cided that he al-to woold have a wash to
morrow. The inferior breed of cat were
swarming thicker than ever ia the yards
and legaa to shriek. Harry watched them
eagerly.
"HI had a stone, wouldn't I peg it at

j Then a knock came at the door, and a
i boy st'k'k in a note ; lie looked about the
i room in.juititiveh, and departed. Harry

: " lUua it, H.rrr," he fa'A, " I must ro

Harry carried matches idose in the

John put on hk n!ter and hurried
down stair. ; Wis son followed hiiu to the
laniiiriganl watched him with a sober
dee till he was out of iht. IVrhaps
the thought of ui!ude did alarm him, I
f.r he cil"d o :t, s. ft!y : (

" Yo-i mast have suptwr, you know,
j The by sprang on bis father and h'lg
j ge iiim vehemently, but said nothing ;
j later John found a spit of moisture on his
I breast, as if, when the lad had pressed
I his litt'e cheek against it, he bad shed a
j tear.
J '. sl-hr, dearie." said the father. "If
f a collector shoo! J turn up, j'jst you tell
j ion. I won't Is.1 back tili late."
li-rry entered ther.MUi a.iin, shut the
I dir, put the bj; on the bed for the
j pres-.'M, and sut down on a rocking-chair
i to think. How very quiet ji was 1 How-
large the room looked, and what a star
ing window was that one ; he wished,
just for once, there was a curuin ia front
of it. which be could pull down, to hide i
j the white, dead clothes that gibbered at
! hirn as the wind ma le them flutter on
i the line, and he did not like the idea that
j those unhealthy cats might come acrom
j the r'f to look in at iii:n. llewishe-l the
; stea-u would not thump so in the pijes.
j He won-ierel what time it was, an 1 w ish
ed his father had not lent his watch to a
man. He gu-ssed it must be a':out eii.ht

to bed at eight oVlot k. Humph, be could
sit up as lat'-as he ph ased.
Harry looked little and babyish as be

what he sl.er.ld do.
! T.ie whole evening was before Ltin and
; he had the liberty of the roora : b it. for
; eoiuc reas.,o, he not uel ext iteo,
n'.t like j'laytns. It needs resolution to
play by ont-'s se t". He would rather read
, in some vf his father's boiks. pt-rha;s.
! Still r s-king he examined the liu'ratare
on the revolving book -case. That Ency- j
clopcdla, with the long name, was not
bad, c-s;cial!y the volume wi h the plates ;
of snakes, but he did not care to hunt !or j
them th?n ; what w as the fun of looking ,'
at nwl.-d cobras where a fellow wis !
a.one at the Upr.f;!.e house, where the j
fire maile the siiadows umler the lied j
wriggle strangely. His father had not j
praised the tire, after all. Harry wished j
he hod not taken the trouble to make it.
What frightfal shadows there were 1 He j
turned up the gas very hich and looked !
at the boc k again. Macaulay's "Essavs." '
ll knew who Ma.-a;iiay was: he estab- ;
lishc-'I missions in New York citv. "An-

That was the picture seen by the gen- j

passed since the arrival of the Judge and

Harry sat !on oa the floor, ate a lit

"John coul 1 not wish for a more elo-

e-1 the Jaoe. "Strange, I did not think j
he ws the s-rt of a man to inspire alfve-

boy says he is po r. I am glad of it !
I'm glad of it." j
He looked at everything in the room !
til! all the objects in it became indelibly j
impressed ou his mind, and in particular j
he remembered the face of the miniature !
inthe sil.t-r frame.
Ia the meantime. John was bum-ins

i'atiier and son they were; the haaghty
tagle face and towering figure of the old
Ju.ige were copied faithfully in the form
and features of the handsome young jour
nalist whostxil there, passing his hand
over his eyes as if he could not believe
the evidence of his senses. He came in
slow iy.
" L.-t me take tiie child away, won't '
you, sir?"' he said. "He is awfully!

dignified position, holding a big hot child i
wbo breathed heavily and wh.sse checks j
were smeared with trca I and butter, ana j
John relieved him of his burden, strode i

The Judge stood np and shook off from j
his sai-tcoot the rniiirw which had been ;
deposited there w ith petals of the wreck- j
ed uiossrose. He cleared his throat and !
prepared a little s;eech ; Joan waited to '
hear it, and showed no emotion of any '
sort. j
"Ahem! isit your habit may I a.-k, i
sir, to leave yonr child here alone, at the !

no lon-gvr irritated the son ; he listenel
to the thunder and replied, gravely :" j
" It grieves me to be forved to leave !
my boy, father." j
His tone was hauglity. There was j
silence for a moment ; both men had j
much to say ; neither of them wished to
begin to speak. They look-sl at each !
other, about the noiu, at the child as he
lav under the tattered coat, at the lone !

" Well," said the old man at last " have
you nothing to say to me? Have I climb
ed these stairs and waited here patiently
for nothing?"
"Thank you for coming. Father," said
the prood son in a stately manner ; but
I wish vou had come before." He looked
at the picture, set by the bed to be wor- i
shiped. j
" Believe me, John," exclaimed the old
man, quailing before hia son's stern !

Manaing Horses.
H.irses that a.-j in o.'.rr rej;-t ex

therefore, an important roA ter to r.i .
owners. Violence and sever. ty. wmh
tried in such cases, have always been
found insdequite. Indeed, it is Gear'y
thecase that such treatment h is been
the cause of the tricks, or at least has
been the omaos of coai.-ming the a.-..-mal
ia its evil way. Take, fc?r instance,
the case of the balky horte.
Balking is aaaally th result of bad
management or abusive treatment of ins
horse. Ona thing is certain, an 1 that is
thai it i of no us to whip tho t 1 a v
horse. That only makes him w..r-e.
If a horse refuses to go, iet him

times he will ou think b.-;ier i f i:, a id

the baikingand generally be w 11 gi along
with out further trouble. The horse is
Tery susceptible to kindness, and t.icre
is tea tirraea the chance to break up
the habit of balking by kindly irewi
ment Uiat there is by abase and violence.
The horse that can't subdued by kiud
cesd, can not be by hars.1 meas ; or. at
least, harsh means should not be re-rt-ed
to until all devices prinptel by
kindness have been thorwgh.y exhsist-e-1.
Some horses, instead of refiisin ; to
at all. have a trick of running oa- hen
you want to start them. Tills is a w..r
fault than that of ref using t g at aii, as
it is liable to suia.h the carriage or injure
those iu it. Ia suets cise.i tue s.me.
means as are reconni-n le I for the kiU v
horse may lie tried- If tlee.? til, ti.e
the horse into the mid-lie of an open
level field, start b.tu, aud let him lw(
as much as he WL-he. keeping the wheel
turned so as to mate the circuit of the
field as niany times as he wLs'ies. Then

game, an 1 will nt b; likely to try it
again.
Some horses greatly annoy their own
ers by lying down In the harness, !re.,
ing sliafts and doing other m..liief.
The best way to brwas them of that tr;. k
is Ui give them an orer J-xe of it. Woe.i
one of those lies doa get u;sia his hea l
and neck and make him stay tli-re. U-
will soon want to get up, but hold him
down, keeping his he-a 1 rl it on tiie
ground and holding it there. If you are
strong and determined ym can keep ami
down, although it will be lively work !.mt
awhile. But d n't give u,. Kep him

and that you are stroUirer than ha. He
will not be likely to p it himself in a po"
sition that will give yoa a chance to
hold him dawn again.
Whatever the tnck or vice the lio.-.4f
may have, if will gn-Taily do no gsl
to whip or treat him harshly. It oniy
exasperates him and makes him more
olrtinute, and perhaps even furious.
Treat the horse kindly an 1 iatelig-nt'y
if you wish Vi reclaim him. .V. 1". V.x

Uses of Mustard.
Few domestic remeiiies are of greater
value than common mustard. As a con
diment and agreeably stimuiant to ti'e
digestive org-.ins, it is found upon almost
every table. Csed in this form it w,i!
sometimes relieve obstinate hico!gh
The uubroken seed of tae white mustard
is of some value as a laxative when tak
en in tabies;tlful dc-ses.
Of more importance is the use of mus
tard as an emetic. A tabtespoonfu! of
orlinary ground iniisUrd taken iu a cute
fulofwarm water will produce copi'is
vomiting in from twj to five minutes.
On this account, and l-ei-ause it is aini'-t
, at baa.l. utsespeciaiiy va.uao.e in wr-
j irencies. In cases of p-ji-oning by opium
j or other narcotics, it is witteiul aa equal
a domest.c emeti
But br far the nest iinp;r!aut n-s- of
mustard is as a coiinter-irr'ant. A mus
tard paste is second to nothing hot opi
um in its power to relieve internal pain.
