I beliete it to lie the best medicine on earth. P. K. Mc Sully, Hackmau, 2s Summer St., LowcU, Mass. FOR DEBILITY, Ayer's Sarsaparilla Is a certain cure, when the complaint origi nates in impoverished blood. "I was a great sufferer Irom a low condition of the biood ami general debility, becoming finally, so reduced that i was unht for work. Noth ing t!mt I did for the complaint helped me ao much as Ayer's Sarsapaiilla. a few bottles ot wineh restored me to health and strength.

Awakened from ihelr long, deep dream. To litfht arise. i What liasmile? A nameless thing, The lack of which a fair face man, And-makes to be like brook or spring No radiant sunlight imaging, No dancing stars. What U a smile ? Anairyrhyme Which" telii more w ith iu nubile wile Thau tongue couid tell throughout all time Which sets the heart bells In a chime. This is a smile ! ONLY A TRAMP. lie came to the back door, ragged, dirty, sunburnt as red as a lobster, and above bus flaming countenance a shock of palish hair hanging over the lightest of eyes altogether as unprepossessing a ppecimen of a boy as one would like to encounter. It w as the most natural thin in the world, though, ilialhe should have slopped at the Mevins place. All the tramps came there it was so near the de pot and they all appeared to be con sumed with hunger just at that point, so that they could not possibly goon to !hi village, two miles farther without refresh ment. It was her great objection to the farm, Mrs. Mevins paid, its being so near the rji'.ro-td. All the dreadful people that it ajared one even to look at, came straight to the house, and the first thing she knew, they were right at the kitchen door, looking in on her at her work. "So that it fairly gave her the tremors, sointinies," ishe said, "on Bosy's account more than than her own," for Rosy was just toddling alxnit now and Mrs. Mevins having to do her own housework, had not the time to watch her every minute, ' and," as she explained to the neighbors, "what if one of them Eye-talians, who looked (it to murder folks, should come and kidnap Rosy one of these days; Nothing easier, if he was disposed." What any of them might want with such an encumbrance as her sturdy little girl of three Mrs. Mevins did not seem to consider. "But even if they w ere not dangerous looking," shesaid'they were nuisances in the way of interrupting her work. It wasn't that she begrudged the 'bite of cold vitual's they asked for it was the time it took it get it that she minded." j And then, some of them sat down on the doorstep to rest and enliven their way with a bit of a chat, which did not suit at al! to busy a woman as Mis. Mev ins; for Pa! and Saia being away most of the day, cutting and cording their wool, and 'Ta" out at his work ia the field, the l-cft tramps fell solely to her lot. And now, on her busiest day in the week, here was another, and this time a boy, to make matters wore. For often she could dismiss the men with a bag of scrape and a word or two, but these boys were such hangers-on, yon couldn't some how, get rid ofthem. This one looked particularly so; as if he might enjoy hanging around indefinitely. Fagged out, thin as a hoand, and evidently half starved ; dear, dear ! what a bother in the midst of her ironing! "Con Id he sit there a little while and rest, and could he get some water, and and any little leavin'a of bread or any thing?" " ! And this w ith a look as if he would drop in hi3 tracks in a second more. Mrs. Mevins could not fly in the face of duty w hen it came to the pinch, but hhe could grumble amazingly beibre she followed the promptings of conwienc. "You'll have to sit there," she said grudgingly, "for you don't look erjual tostandin' another minute, anywhere.' She walked to the cupboard. "Where in the world did von come from and where are you makin to, a boy like yon !' "He was going to R, to look for work, he said ; she notices that he did not say w here he came from. "t h ! to the city ; well, you'd belter go back to your ma, wherever that may be; cities ain't a good place for boys o' your ?, anyhow," she said, as if the had summoned his case up and found the answer in this piece of advice. Tiie boy had sunk down on the door step and was fanning his brow with his dilapidated hat, mostly brim. He look ed beyond protesting any great deat against anything. :IIe didn't Lave no mother," he said in a weakly defensive w ay. "Could he get the water right now ?" looking vague ly around as if in search of it. Mrs. Mevins came forward with her hands full of odds and ends of cold food, and piling them into his hands, took him by the arm in a business like man ner. "Here," she said, pointing with her fiager, ."I ain't got time to wait on you. bat you see: yonder by the fence? There's the well. And shut the doors down ajain when you've drawn the bucket up ; fiere's so many young chickens running round here, some of 'em would tumble in, sue, if you left it oper," and then she went on with her ironing. For, she mentally argued, when he had got the water and rested a spell, he would move on as was his business to. Bat he did not go ; he came back presently and sat down again on the dxir-step and there he leaned wearily bick against the frame of the door and gazed out over the yard and garden to the Geld and, perhaps, the sky beyond. Well, she had no time to fool away in ti'king with him, but Rosy-b'ess the child! there she was climbing into the lip of that tramp boy, jabbering away at the greatest rate, clinging to him, patting hiui. Mercy ! Suppose he had some dreadful fever! lie certainly looked like it. "La, Rosy! come here!" cried her mother, and play w ith the kitten : he's ewe on!" But as Rosy clang to his shoulders ob stinately ehaking her head and saying "no, no '." in her most energetic fashion, Mrs. Mevins marched over and gathering her np bodily bore her into the next room where Miss Mirandy was. Rosy screaming most lustily all lhe way. When she returned to the kitchen the the tramp-boy had vanished from the doorway. Thank goodness he was gone then ! She had not thought to get rid or him so easily ; he had looked so "tuck ered out," and as though he were inca pable of moving. -Brit as she congratula te! herself she heard a sound as of an ax at the woodpile, and looking out, to her astonishment, there was the boy with one foot steadying a log while he cut JU2STE 29, 1892. away at it as if f. r dear life. "Well, I want to know !" gasped the woman, as she made her way out to him ; "what are you doing that for?" The tramp-boy rested his axe in the wood and looked around shamefacedly. "You didn't seem to have much cat," he said, hanging his head a little, "and I though, mebbe, if I chopped up a right smart pile for you, you might'nt mind if I stayed and got another mijuthfu! of somethin when yon had dinner. 11 eat np all that you give me; I come sifur, and and and got so hungry." Well, it was a bother having him hang ing around the place, but she didn't know how to refuse such a request as this There mightn't be anything so villainous about a boy that was willing to work for what be got, especially w hen he was as near used up as this one seemed. "You can go on chopping, now you've begun" it, though I'al and Sain w ill be here presently and they alwavsseeto that," she eaid, not very graciously, in truth and went back to the hoase. When Ial and Sim did come presently they disproved of the boy at the wood pile. "IV sail nothing; "IV never sai 1 anything." But then lal general ly spoke for the family. "1 tell you what," he remarked as he was leaving the house half an hour later, 'w hen he does gtt his leed, you send him right along, you hear, ma? We don't want no tramps around here, pickin' up things au l helpin themselves behind your back to more'n you'll ever find out. There ain't notb in' about this farm me and Sam can't attend to and I'a and if there was, that boy is lazy as the day is lon! Jimmy! 1 wish you'd seen him handlin' that axe as I came up! I wonder he didn't cut himself to pieces, the way he hehl it; I thought 'twould Yr fallen out o' his hand every lick ! Send him right on you hearnia? Don't let him loaf around here a! I dav." 'Naw," supplemented his brother "an keep an eye on my rilie yonder, while he's here; I ain't ready to part with it, an' I daresay he's got something ia his eve by hangin' around so." Since they Lad mentioned these thir.g, Mrs. Mevins found the tramp-boy very ruspicions-looking when she called him in to his dinaer. She had not asked him to sit down with the family, because she still heard the sound of the axe at the wood-pile, and he might as well doall he would ; he wasn't going to hurt himself she had tramps bargain to do such things lefore, and it was mighty seldom thi-v lid not get the best of it. Ilia dinner w as worth all this boy had done, she'd be bound ! While he was eating, and "eating like a famished wolf," khe told herself, bhe stepped to the door and glanced out to the wood-pile. Well, it was a pretty fair job this time; a riht good lot he had cut, considering. For he certainly was near done for when he came. She glanced back at him ; well, he didn't look so very different now. What a great way he must have come, to make hi in look like that! And then so rag ged a low creature that had no doubt stolen something that he had to run away for. He didn't !.ok as if it were any thin? like stabbing or shooting some body. He was rather harmless-looking, in that sense; and perhaps if he were taught a lesson now Mrs. Mevins wa3 a woman that alA'iys caaie to the point in such matters. "I say boy," she said suddenly, walk ing up to him and looking him juareiy in the eye, "what have you done that you have to run ofT like this? Keen pickin' anybody's pocket, or what was itr Not a very hospitable remark, certain ly ; but this boy was no visitor lie was only a tramp, and a suspicious-looking one at that, though he was young. "Pickin' anybody's pocket!" gasped the boy at the table, stopping the fork half way to his mouth, and turning, if possible, redder than ever. That settled it; a boy with a tell-tale face like that had no nerd to say any thing, decided Mrs. Mevins. "Well, don't go making it worse by de nying it, whatever it was. What's clone is done ; you can't better that. E".t I don't know w hat a boy like you can ex pect to come to if you go about thicvia' an'" A sharp shriek startled her Wor.s away ; but it was not from the tramp-boy that she was bran.iing as a thief. It came from the yard in afar, babyish voice, shrill with terror. "Roey ! The well ! screamed the wo man, and she felt her knees giving away beneath her. But the tramp-boy bad darted past Lf-r like a deer. She stiilened herself and stumbled blindly nfter him. As she ran she saw only that ona cover to the will was open, but in her distraction she heard another cry, half muitl-:d from ils depths! And then she saw another thlni:--a boy with tousled hair and sunburnt face fling open the other door to the well, let ting the bucket-rope slip within like a flash and winding himself around it, down and down, like a eju:rrel! To save her life she could not stir! and try as she would she could not scream for help, though she saw her husband far oiT there in the field. Hs had not heard or seen, and she could not call him ! Such azony comes rarely enough in a lifetime. As she sunk upon the ground no longer able to stand, she heard a mnflled call. She dragged herself nearer the well. It was the voice of th; tramp boy. "Try to wind cp the rope," came faintly from the'epths that she dared not look into. Distractedly she grasped the wheel. Merciful heaven ! she could not move it ! Was she going to faint? Oh ! this dread ful feeling, as if she were tame 1 to stone! "Quick ! try '." sounded a second faint call. She tried with all her might, she could not turn the wheel !
