See how lovely they look ! Isabella Ives lifted from the centre of an aesthetically arranged! lunch table, with covers laid for eight, a silvered bas ket draped with cream white silk folds, in which was disposed a fragrant mass of the most delirious white roses and haif open buds. Mrs. Ives smiled approvingly. " You have exquisite taste, dear, said she. "The table looks much. Tike a dream." Nor was Mrs. Ives's jtsJgtnent to be controverted. All down the centre ex tended a mass of feathery maiden-hair r ferns ; the roval basket of roses kept guard in the middle, and at each end a candelabra of porcelain-shaded candles was wreathed in smilax. Cut glass and silver, decorated china and glistening damask were arranged to the- best advan tage, and Miss Ives herself, fluttering lightly to and fro, was perhaps the pret ties object in the room. 'U- At the extreme end of the table, a lit tle old woman in a ginger-colored meri no gown, a brown-ribboned cap, and a pairof steel-rimmed spectacles, was peer ing at the curioa little tinted depressions in the oyster plates. This was Mrs. Zemiah Paxton, commonly called Aunt Kuey. " Well, I ncrcr r said Annt Ruey, with a long breath. M You city folks don't manage things a bit as we do down irf Kephank. bad lunch party, week afore I come np here. Miss Pewey and Patience Cook, and the minister's folks, and the neighbors, said I done things up brown. We had rig biscuit and apple sauce, and cold chicken and pickles, and a loaf o' 'lection cakes, anil a bunch o' datfydowndillies in a broken-spouted blue pitcher, fixed so that the flowers hid the cracks. 4. ml- here you're going to have six seven different sorts o' vituals, and two nigger men to wait, and the table cleared and sot over agin betwixt every sort o' food, and the gas and candlesticks lighted, too, as il the Lord's sunshine warnt good enough for you V "It's the style, Annt Ruey," said Bella, Uughing merrily. " It ain't the way I was brought up," said Mrs. Paxton. Mrs. Ives glanced fretfully at her hus band's old aunt as she squeaked out of the room in a pair of substantial leather boots. " Bella," said she, "doesf.Yunt Zeruiab absolutely persist in being present at this lunch party 7" ' " I'm afraid she does, mamma." " Bat it's quite impotisible." " Why is it impoMeible, mamma?" " She doesn't knew a single one of the guests." " Oh, well, she will like the novelty of the thing :" pleaded Bella. " Bella," groaned Mrs. Ives. " I shall die in mortification." . " Mamma, why 7" , " That terrible old relic of the past ages sitting at my table in her hideous brown gown and cap, offering Mrs. Stitytus Sey mour s receipt for making applebutter, telling Mfcs Buckingham of the house cleaning bee at the minister's- compar ing our style of living with that of Mrs. Deacon Duckley ! " Mamma, don't mind it," said Bella, cheerily. She's darling old lady, and I like her, and she has read a great deal, and she is exceedingly intelli gent." " Intelligent r groaned Mrs. Ives. There isn't subject but that she will express her opinion upon. I shall be in misery the whole time. Dear Bella, do persuade her that she has got a head ache, or a sore throat, or something or give her an anodyne in a cup of tea that will make her sleep until the whole thing is over." Bella laughed lightly and went on ar ranging her roses. Mrs. Ives spoke to a waiter from the great Broadway caterer, wno had just brought in box of hand painted mentu, and neither of them knew that Aunt Ruey, stopping in the ball to tie a recalcitrant shoe-lace had overheard the brief colloquy between mother and daughter. "So they don't want me," said Annt Ruey to herself. " Well, I suspicioned as much before. Bella is a dear, sweet lit tle girl, bat Isaac's wife would be glad if I was gone home. And, trpon the whole I guess I'll oblige her. I ain't goin' to obtrude myself on nobody." Bella and Mrs. Ives were amazed at the old lady's sudden resolve. " Well, if jrou really mtuf go at once " said Mrs. Ives, smoothly. " But, Annt Ruey," coaxed Bella, " yoa wont see Miss Buckingham's Paris gown, AT til nor Miss Scribbleton, who has written a book T " I guess I can survive without," said Annt Ruey. I'd like to have seen your beau, Ruey, bat p'raps you'll bring him down to the farm some time. Bella blushed. Mrs. Ives grew very paie. " The sooner she's off the premises the better," marts a red she. " Bella's bai, indeed ! llow frightfully vulgar !" Aunt Zeruiab. was in full preparation for spring cleaning down at Nephank, when an unexpected visitor arrived at Salt Marsh farm Isabella Ives I " I've come to make yoa a visit, Aunt Raey," said she, striving to smile, al though her eyes were brimming over with tears. " And you're as welcome as flowers in May, my dear," said the good old wo mar. " We have broken np housekeeping," hurriedly went on Isabella. " Papa has failed." " I thought it would come to that," in terjected Aunt Ruey. " He bus accepted a clerkship is a bank in Denver." said Bella. " He is to send for us as soon as he can make a borne. Mamma has gone to ber sister. I didn't go there because Aunt Dorothy said she couldn't have the whote family on her hands." " Well," said A unt Euey, " th ia 'ere is a big, roomy house, and the whole family would be kindly welcome here, if they chose to come." Bella kissed her aunt How good you are V said she. " Oh, I was sure of you. But, Aunt Ruey, I want you to find me something to do. I must earn some money for myself. I can't be a drone in life's hive any longer." Aunt Ru'y wiinkled her forehead. " There's the district school," said she , "but Miles Parker's niece teaches it. Lucy Jones goes out tailoring, Mrs. Peet hasfi loom, and weaves ra;i carpet. The minister's sister gives lesnons in wax Mowers, and Bessie Artmtuer is a music teacher." Bella's face fell. "Then there is no vacant nook for me," sighed she. " UnUtt," said Aunt Ruey. Bella looked eagerly up- I danno how it will work," said she ; " but I was thinkin some o' gettin' a hir ed girl-" " Oh, Aunt Ruey, let w be your hired girl r burst out Bella. "And keepin a boarder or two," added Aunt Ruey. "There's a New York ar tist has writito the postmaster that he wants to come in August for the sea views ; and there's the minister's cousin. with her three sickly children ; and I know a Philadelphia school ma'am who would be glad to. board here." Bella clapped her hands. - Spkadid r cried ah. " And I may be the hired help, Aunt Ruey, mayn't IT" " La, child,"aid the old lady, " yoa couldn't do no heavy work. You're as slim as a sapling, and them little white hands of yours ain't fit for scrubbin' and soft soap makin'." " But," exclaimed Bella, " I can cook ! I've taken lessons. And I am sure I could be chambermaid and waitress. Have in a woman now and then for the heavy work, and let me be the hired girl. Please do, Annt Ruey." " I do b'lieve," said Mrs. Paxton, " that you'd tease the very specks off my nose if you was to try. Well, I s'potte you'll have to have your own way. But look here, Isabella, I don't wore'n half un derstand all this. What's become of your beau 7" Bella's long Uahes drooped. " I never had a beau," said she, in a scarcely audible voice. "The young man that used to come and! tire yoa when I was a visitin' you op in the city," inquisitively demanded Mrs. Paxton " where's he?" "Th.it was nothing," said Bella, with quivering lips. "Oh, Aant Ruey! how like a dream all those past and gone things seem. He used to call occasional ly, but he never proposed to me. I saw bis name in the parser the other day married to a Southern lady at Cape May." "There, there, dear, dont cry," said Aunt Zeruiah, patting her niece's satin brown braids of hair. " Of course you're sort o' down spirited, lea via all them fashionable doin's behind yoa 1 But you'll get over it, never fear!" Ami the good soul " made believe," as tlie children say, that slit credited those one or two light tears of Bella's to regTet for the handsome house on Lexington Avenue, the fiveo'clock teas, the orchid shows, and the rosebud bAlls. Verily, there were the instincts of true ladyhood about Mrs. Paxton, in spite of dyed gowns and bad grammar. Besides, had she not forgotten and forgiven being call ed "a terrible relic of the past ages" by Mrs. Ives herself T Gray-haired old la dies have feeling as well as young ones and the words had stung Aunt Zerui ab at the time. Bella Ives proved the most efficient of adjutants to Mrs. Paxton, and richly earn ed the wages that that lady most scrupu lously ipaid her. The minister's sister, with her three sickly children, was de lighted with her summer home. The Philadelphia school ma'am wrote home detailed accounts of the beauties of N'ep hank point. As for the artist, he arrived at Kephank Station one night late in tbe purple gloaming, and walked across tbe beach, with his vslise in his hand, leav ing his other luggage to come afterwards by wagon. Isabella's evening duties were done. She bad come out on the beach to watch the tide come in, Tbe ocean was at once a rest and a revelation to her. She was a littls startled when swift figure came striding around the " Needle Rock," and paused in front of her. " I beg your pardon," said: the new comer, " but can you tell me the way to MisH Ives! Ia this possible, or am 1 dreaming?" " Mr. Beverly V Bat with a sudden re covery of ber wits, she added : " I hope Mrs. Beverly is well ! Is she at Sephank with you !" "There is no Mrs. Beverly that I am aware of," said the young man, with a pouted air. He put down his valise, and stood there, with (bided arms, looking at her. " Bella," said he, " why did yoa run I Me away from me? Why did yoa leae no address behind 7" Why did yoa et married without giving os any notice?" she retorted, very thankful for the sunset shadows that con cealed her crimsoning cheeks. " I did not art married.' " I saw it in the paper mygelf ' Ver non Beverly to Alk-e, widow of General Castlemaine, of Georgia." Exactly," said he, with a smile. "That was my father. I have been obliged to forward to him innumerable letters of congratulation that have been addressed to me. I have won a dear little step mother, but I have lost the faith of all . my friends. Xo, I am not married. I shall never be married unless unless you will marry me, Bella ; fot yoa are the only girl I ever cared for." Aunt Raey received Mr. Beverly with smiling hoppitalitj. " I knew Bella had a beau, she said to herself, " only she wouldn't own it." " We must pat Mr. Beer!y in the New York artist's room," said the good old woman, " until he comes for " " Bat, Aant Ruey, 'At is the Xew York artist." " The letter was signed ' P. Patterson, " said Mrs. Paxton, dubiously. "Mr. Patterson is my friend," said Beverly. He wrote to engage the room at my request I had sprained my right wrist. Did he not mention my name ?" ""o," said Aunt Ruey. "Goodness me! what a tangled np business all this is!" " Bat it's straightened out at last," said Beverly, laughing. " Isn't it, Bella V " Yes," said Bella ; " it's straightened out at last" Little Ones in Spectacles. The number of children who wear spectacles has become a serious olject of remark, says the Boston IhrnLL That a radical wrong exists somewhere when children only four years of ag are thus hampered for lif, is only too palpable, but who is to blame, and what is tbe remedy for this evidently increasing af fliction? Are future generations to be sans eyes as well as sans teeth ? The de fects in vision necessitating spectacles are inherited, or infants scarcely able to read would not be hurried to opticians and fitted to glasses that must bother them while they live. Occuliste give many sensible reasons for this weakness of the optic nerves. Bat no one impress es the necessity of care in the manage ment of eyes until the damage is done, and then it is too late. Young mothers who cover the baby's face with a veil, or who wear spotted lace against their own eyes, and who allow their children to read by insufficient light, are laying up trouble for themselves, though occulist and optician will be better off by their criminal ignorance. As to the school rooms, where ch'ldren fpend so many hours of the day, do parents ever ask or know how they are lighted, and whether the scholars face the windows, and whether they are obliged to strain their eyes by blackboard exercises in half lights. A little precaution in the me of the eyes, and some knowledge on the subject of improper lighting, would be a pound of cure in this matter of specta cles. The Land of Wonderful Stories. Tlie accompanying story needs no in troduction, other than to say, as might be expected, that il comes from Georgia : There is an old gentieiuan ia Forsyth county who is very fond of hunting, and whenever he walks abroad his wife al ways accompanies hiin. Recently he went out to drive the cows. During his walk he discovered five squirrels upon one tree, and alo discovered that he had lost al! of his bullets but one. He sat down, drew out his pencil antl day book, and, carefully surveying the distance up to the first, began : If six grains ot pow der will move a bullet three inches, how many era ins will it take to carry it up to ; the squirrel, a distance of ab'put thirty feet? He made the calculation, put ia the required amount of powder, just enough to kill the squirrel, and for the bullet to pasB through. He : banged away, and down came bushy tail. He took his knife, cut out the ball, loaded up and fired again and again until he had killed the five squirrels with the one buliet. The Best Advertising. The most efficient advertising in be half of Hood's Sarsaparilla is that which comes from the medicine itself. That is, those who are cured by it, speak to friends suffering similarly, who in turn derive benefitand urge others to try this successful medicine. Thu3 the circle of its popularity is rapidly widening from this cause alone, and more and more are becoming enthusiastic in behalf of Hood's Sarsaparilla, as it actually demonstrates its absolute merit AU that is asked for Hood's Sarsaparilla is that it be given a fair trial. If you need a good blood pu rifier, or building up medicine, try Hood's Sarsaparilla. The Centre of Population. The centre of population has traveled west almost on a straight line from the vicinity of Annapolis to a point seven miles southwest of Cincinnati. The last census took it across the Ohio river, a short way below Riverside. The pre sumption is that the next census will take it across the river again, locating it in the State of Indiana, not far from Ris ing Sun. Cinviimar, CitminerruU-Gazflf. Corn in the glaxing stage niakes the best fodder. If cut when the ear is bard the stalk is then (to a certain exteut) woody, and if cut very young, before the ears are formed, the stalk abounds in water and is lacking in nutrition. When the ear is about filled and beginn:ng to glaze, the cutting of the corn at that stage arrests the nutritive elements in the stalk, and the fodder is then equal to bay, being fed to stock with the ears on the stalk cr cut up in a cutter. When the branches of The tomato vine look as if the leaves? had been stripped off, make a close search for the green worm, which is about two inches long and half an inch in diameter. Cnless the worm ia caught it will eat up alt the foliage, and as it is nearly of the color of the vines it is not easilv detected. Moral'courage will rank higher than physical. The one is a daily necessity, while U.e other may be required only in emergencies. 1 4 tL. C WHOLE XO. 1990. What Makes Enemies.

The annoy. ances that rLie from poor fences thrmi-h which cattle escape, from sheep-kiliing dogs, and simiLir grievances, bree.1 an endless amount of hostility among coin- try neighbors. We once lived a neighbor to a man wbose land lor a long u stance adjomeil our own. According to law it was nis duty to build and keepin repair half of the fence. But th is man was a person of habitual slackness in all his ways, conse quently his share of the fence was always in a ric'iety condition. The hitrm became doubly great since his land was a pasture and ours a field. The annoy ance endured from that neighbor's cattle breaking through and destroying ctops was incalculable. Year after year it contin'ied. Each - .1 . I , . I At t ttprmg tiie waa wouiu pau.ii up me oiu fence, and each summer the. trouble would be repeated.

One night a number of this uju wto mute tinwupii n.e itl.lc, ttt trampled all through the growing crops until they found those cabbages. The condition of them the next morning was enough to arouse all the ire in any man's nature. There were but a few hea.1 un- touched. Many had just a bite taken out of them, but were spoiled for sale. Siitne one will say: "Go to law with such men and make them pay damages." t : . . ..... .... , .:,.c.. . t.n. animals to run in the public lii;h ay.

Ire would jump over low fences and stone walla in order to reach good feed. Tha entire neighbor hood had to guard against the depreda tions of this old beast, and when one day it happened to get on the railroad and its meddlesome career was ended no one grieved except its owner. The owner of the horse well knew what a mischievous animal he was ; yet, in order to save a littie feed, he wouid turn it out to become a nuisance to h'n neinh'wrs. The man became an object of universal dislike just on accoudt of such inconsid erate action toward his neighbors. Perhaps r.o other oue cau-ie has pro duced more hostility among neijjt-bor? than that of farmers having sheep k.ltexl by their neighbors' dogs. This is really so universal auo serious a calamity tuat, lor cne, the writer would lie glad to see the law step in and place so heavy a tat on dogs as would do swav wsth the entire dog creation except the needed valuable ones. There are thousands upon thou sands of the most worthless curs through out our agricultural district that very year causes a great loss to the fanners. They are kept by men not interested in sheep, and in their inditference to tlieir neighbors' welfare they persist in keep ing these w orth less animals. Occasionally the loss from this source is so great as to quite balance the profit on a small farm. A neighboring fanner and sheep raiser keeps no dogs himself, j hut has several neighbors who own logs. j In one season he had nearly a hundred dollars' worth of sheep and lamhs killed by dogs. He was unable to designat-i the guilty animals, and as usual each dog owner defended his dog against the charge. In such cases it is iiupoesiblu to get redress in any measure, and ih sheep raiser is compelled to endure the wrong and suffer the kw. In one instance a farmer found hia neighbor's dtxr chasing his s!eep in the daytime. Hastily procuring his rifie he ! killed the d.vj. Even nndersnch circum stances the shooting of it caused b.ajtile feelings between the two families, who had hitherto been on the m.t amiable terms. The owner iof the dog claimed that it was simply in play that it was af ter the sheep. Occasionally a man is found with suf ficient justice to enable him to see both sides of the case, even though he is a concerned party. An acquaintance once purchased a valuable Newfoundland dog and paid express ou it for a longdistance. Alter me uojr s arrival several sne p in Th the neigii!jorh.jtl dlsapjxaired. neighbors were loth to oelive that so no- , . , ,. ble booking degnf so noble a breed would be guilty of such a deed. But finally his guilt became nnmistak.ble. and the own- er took its life. Tha irood will , t his neighbors and their interest were of more value to him than the keeping of a dog merely as a matter of pleasure. In this great human family it is impos sible for people to live wholly to theni selve". There are times when individual feelings and fancies should fx? sacrificed when they conflict seriousiy with the justice dae to a fellow man. The person who chalks oat Uis career in life, yield ing neither at the right nor the left in consideration of the rights and fet lings of others, may be very sure that be wiil have plenty of ill will showered upon Lim as he goes through life.
