SIGRiD AND THE KING.
It was a ra le apolcijy for a dwelling
ho'tsc, a BnaU hovel like structure with
a tLato-Led.roof and a tutoble-downhiin-a-iT-.
There were bat three rooms in it ;
one cf these was the loft reached by
rude stairway, which waa ajd by the
fiuily as a sleeping -room. Of the two
oa the ground floor one was csed aa a
storage or pwviiion room, while the
larger was a kitchen, living-room and
parlor all ia one.
The walls were bare save for a pair of
dser's horns over the door. The win
dows were narrow and had shutters in
side. At one end of the room was a rais
ed hearth of stone. The rafters were
smoked to a deep rich cotfee-color. A
rongh deal table, a chair, half a dozen
stooij and a apianin-wheel compri-jed
the fi rait are.
The hut stood among the Dalecarlian
hills in Sweden ; in tbe midst of deep
woods, though on one side there was an
open stretch, through which could be
seen green fields and far below in the
valley, the roofj and cjimneys of a small
harn'e:. It was a wild beautiful country
aad even the cottage and its adjacent
barn, which had also a thatched roof,
nude a pret'y picture.
This was the home of Sirid Johanns-
son and her little brother CarL Siffrid
was only 12 and Carl 8 years old. They
had lived in this lineiy little hovel ever
since they were born. Their father had
been a wood-chopper, but the year before
had bein killed by the fall of one of his
own trees.
Their mother, Pane Ulrica, went cur
sing for a livelihood and was then attend
ing the miller's sick wife at Rattvik, a
little hillside village about half dozen
mi;es distant through the woods. So the
ch.lJren were all alone in their forest
hcin-.e.
"Be careful, Sigrid," Dame Ulrica had
sail when she had left home the first
of the w eek. The Danish soldiers are
about, searching everywhere for that true
Sede, Ga.-rtavus Vasa. Thou hadst better
not leave the hou.se lest harm come to
thee."
You needn't worry about Sigred or
me, mamma.'' declared Carl, shaking his
golden curls and strutting np and down
very bravely with his father's ax on his
shoulder. "I will kill all the wicked
D mrs, and then the good (iastavus won't
htve to hide any longer with a price on
his hea 1.
Sigrid laughed pleasantly at her broth
er's bold speech. She was a quiet digni
fied little thing with two great roils of
yellow hair hanging down below her
waist, and eyes mild and blue as the sum
mer skies of her own land.
"Yes, brother will take care of me, and
we will be wvchfdl and won't even leave
the h'Qe.
"I shall be back as sxn as the good
wife is belter," said the mother. "And
Ulfson shall come over with a bag of
meal meanwhile and you will have
enough to eat,
The children siw her depart without
any thought of being afraid. Their
mother was absent so much that they
hal ne.'er been molested, and though
strangers bad often pissjd that way they
seldom paused, unless it was to beg a
drink of water from the spring beside the
door.
Carl and Sigrid had plenty of work to
busy themsehea with. The boy fed the
chickens, the two sheep and the cow,
carried the water and gathered the fuel
from the adjacent forests, and hisaister
milked the cow, made the baiter, cooked
their simple meals and spnn the wool,
even as Swedish maidens do to-day.
When it came night they cloted the shut
ters, drew the stout oaken bar across thf
door, lighted their single lamp and roast
ed cuts in the hot ashes till bed time,
when they said their simple prayers,
drew the ashes over the coals and climb
ed to the loft to their couch of straw with
a wolfskin for a blanket.
In the middle of the week the miller's
boy came over the bills with a bag of
barley meal oa bis mule's back, which
was left at the cottage, but ro other per
son visile 1 them till, one night just at
dusk little Carl rushed into the kitchen
where his sister sat spinning, with the
exclamation :
Oh, Sigrid ; there's a great big man
coming op the road. I think it must be
one the Danes. Hadn't we better bar
him out?'
"Hush, Carll" said his sister pausing
to stir the brands on the wide hearth:
"lie is no Dane If he comes alone. Doubt-
le-s he is some traveler who needs shelt
er.
"I don't know," answered CarL "I'm
afraid of hint, be is so Ull and burly. I
think . will get my axe."
Before Sigred could answer there was
a loud rap at the door, and her first
glance was an apprehensive one as she
opened it.
The stranger was of large frame, tall
and broad -shouldered, and his great size
was rendered still more impressive by
the large cloak of bear's fur that hung
from hi shoulders, for it waa the season
cf cold among the Dalecarlian mountains
EST A "RTiTRFTKT 1837.
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 181)3.
Piercing dark eyes shone from under
heavy brows, and the man's whole air
was pre-eminently that of one used to
command.
"Can yon give shelter to a wanderer
among your hills?" he asked in some'
what of a stern voice, yet i-ourteous
enough. "I had hoped to go farther, bat
night is coining on and I am far from
friends."
"To such as we Lave you are welcome
sir," answered Sigrid, throwing wide
open the door.
The stranger murmured his thanks
and advanced into the room, th-iwicg
ar-ide his haavy fur garment and .-eated
himself by the fire.
Carl continued to view bitn with sus
picions eyes, keeping back in the corner,
and noting every movement of their
guest, who sat very quiet in his chair
with his chin a pen his hands, while Si
grid was busy getting sapper. When the
hot barley-cakes ;and the bean porridge
were placed upon the table. Carl barely
had courage to set his stool at the oppo
site side, bringing forward the wood
man's axe so that he might have it with
in reach. The latter action caught the
visitor's eve.
"What dost tbou do with thy axe, my
!ai?" he asked cutiomly.
-I keep it t-j kill Dines with," replied
the hardy little S ede, with unexpected
energy.
"Then thon ilt have work enonh to
do ere long," said the visiter laughing;
and he fell to eating hi bowl cf por
ridge with ail the zest cf a hungry man.
Hardly had they finished their hum
ble meal when they were disturbed by
the clatter of horses baofs ontei Ja. The
next instant there was a heavy knock oa
the door.
"Let us in cried half a dozen voices.
Carl grasped bis axe and stood behind
the table ia a posture of defense. The
visitor sprung to his feet, gave a quick
glance around, and then, as if realizing
how futile would be any attempt at de
fjn?, seiaed the remainder of the por
ridge, and bending forward over the
hearth renewed his eating.
Bat Sigrid's action was the most singu
lar of all; she grasped the stringer's
heavy rVAt and ran up the stairway with
it, returning just iatiina to unbar the
door as a threatening voice cried :
"Open the door, I say, or we wiil break
it down.
A dozen armed men strnggied into the
doorway and the leader sternly asked :
"Hast thou seen a wanderer pass by
your hilt, girl ?"
"No one has passed by our door these
seven days," answered S'grid, with an
unfaltering tongue, thongh her cheeks
slightly psled.
"But who is he, yonder?" questioned
the officer, with a suspicious glance at
the figure by the hearth.
"That," said the girl in a cqiitemr-.ta-ous
tone, "is a varlet who does not know
when he has eaten enough."
And then, as by a sudden inspiration
she struck her guest a rude blow in the
face.
"To the barn thou churl, where thoa
belongt, I will inform thy mistress on
her return what a glutton and lazy-bones
she pays her hard-earned silver to.
Away r
The man arose wi'.ha lazy yawn, wip
ed hi mcuth with his hand, aad matter
ed: ' The fire was warm and the soup was
gi ; I didn't know it was anv barm."
Then he male for the door, his exit
being considerably curried by the help
of the soldiers, who p.isrie l andj jntled
him with rude jokes, all of whk-h he
tx)k good naturedly.
' Beshrew tnel but thoa hast a sharp
tougae, my lai a'.tnoah thou looked
m.tk enough." declared theotBier, with
laugh. "Pardon us for our intrusion."
And he ordered his men to remount
aad ride oa in pursuit of the illost-ious
fjgitive, who, thauks to young girl's
ready wit, they had just had the pleas
are of assisting to escape out of their
very hands.
After they were all gone Sigrid sunk
d)n, white as a sheet,and Car!, wonder
ing, asked :
"Were they all Dacca, sister?"
And he would not believe that the
burly stranger, who had left his big fur
exit in their loft, was the famous Gasta
vui Vasa, till one day in the following
summer, when a gay cavalcade rode cp
to the dour, and the leader, the same tall
man with the stern eyes and grim lip?,
asked for Sigrid.
"Thou art a brave girl aad a thougbt
fjl one," said the king be was now ius
tavus I "and I owe my llfj to thy
prompt action, If thoa wiil now return
my far coat I will pay thee far its keep
ing." And to the surprise of Sigrid and her
mother, while Carl's eyej fairly seemed
to roll out of their sockets, he then threw
a chain of gold around the white neck cf
the girL
"That is the gut of thy king," he ron-tinuc-1
; "the nation gives the better
guerdon."
He thrust into her hands a folded
parchment to which were atUched c jrls
and seals. Then bowing grandly, as if
she had been a prince, the Sweedish
hero and bis knights rode away. The
parchment proved to be the title deeds
of a large estate, which was granted to
Sigrid Johannssoa and her heirs forever,
and which ia still in the hands of the
brave Swedish girl whose shrewd wit and
presence of mind saved the life of tt e
greatest of Sweden's sovereigns.
She Knew Him.
When General Butler was making an
electioneering trip through Massachu
setts in special car with a party of
friends he would often call the children
inside who came to the station to see
him. Oae cf these, in SpriagSeld, was a
bright little girL He asked her if ahe
kaew him.
"You're General Butler," waa her
prompt reply.
"How do yoa know Fm General But
ler?" he inquired interestedly.
"Because yoa are cock-eyed," waa the
dariLg answer.
And the General lay back in his chair
and laughed until the tear ran down his
face. When he became composed be
said : "That's fame for yoa. That's in

Keep potatoes and all root vegetables
in a box or a bin in a dry cellar.
Cranberries may be kept for months
in crocks or jtrs, and covered with water.
Sogar, rice, hominy, farina, oatmeal
and the like are best kept in bags or
boxes in cool, dry closet.
Milk shoul J be as far as possible sep
arated from the other food and kept
clean and cool.
A basket kept on a swinging shelf is
the proper receptacle fur eggs,
Coffee and tea should be kept in close
canisters by themselves. Spices also.
Baking powders, carbonate cf soda
and the like keep best in esall, self
sealing glase jars.
Lard should be hard, white, and kept
in a covered crock.
Dried fruits are bet kept in bag3 and
hung upon a dry wall, but they may also
be well preserved, if properly dried in
boxes.
Apples and oranges keep longest by
being wrapped separately in tiue pa
per and spread out, so as not to touch
each other, ia a cool, dry place.
Pie?, cooked meals, col 1 ctxiked veg
etable and the like tnust be covere 1, not

Chamberlain's Cou-h remedy is reliable.
It opens the secretions, relieves the

thy condition. If freely used as soon as
tbe cold has been contracted, and be
fore it has become settled in the system,
it greatly lessens the attack and often
cares in a single day what would other
wise bava teen a sc-tvre cold. .WrA-

Said a leading physician : Hot milk
is an excellent substitute for beer, whis
ky or other alcoholic stimulants, in cases
ofgrt-at fatigue and over-exertion cf
body and mind. Its reviving influence,
when taken as hot as can bo sipped, is
remarkable. Iu eJ.-ct is promptly felt
aad lasting, aa l even those who have
been accustomed to the nse of alcoholic
beverag- will find this substitute remark
ably satisfying. This ij especially true
of over-worked women, for w hom phy
sicians sometimes prescribe beer and
other taild stimulants. The momentary
exhilamtioa felt is only the whip ap
plied to an exhausted body, while the
hot milk is digested and gives ncorieh
ment aad real strength."

Payng a Debt Of Kindness-
Aboat the middle of this century
there was a terrible a; rising aT ag thi
Yucatan Indiana. For a time they were
able to wreak vengeance on their white
conquerors, and their ferocity and cru
elty were horrible. Even ao dark a page
of history as this, however, is not with
out its story of kio Ineeis aud mercy be
tween enemies. The town of Peto wa
so situated in the Indian tenitory that it
was taken by the Indians aad recaptar
ed bv the whites many times. Oace,
when it was in the hands of its rightfal
owners, a naaiber of Indian prisoaers
were held.
Less cruel than the savages, the whites
killed oaly in battle; they allowed their
prisoners fo live. But provisions be
came more aad more scarce, and the Ind
ians were left to die cf hunger. One
day Don Marcos Duarte, a wealthy ia-
habitantcfthe towa, was pissing th-i
house where the Indiana were, and stop
ped, shocked at the sight of a miserable,
emaciated creature.
"What are you doing?" Le aske!.
"I aru eating my shoes, as yoa see, "
as the reply. M aai starving to death.
(For twelve days we have had almost
nofucd. Meet of my companions are d a l
and the days cf the rt st are ccmbeitd. "
Don Marcos looked at the miserable
survivor aal said, Yoa acl they
shall live," and he sent them f;d
every diy aal fiai'Iy procarel the:.
fret duin. Whatever were the rights of
the question between Indians and whites
in thucA!-, hi-nia pityspjie Snt ia
his heart.
Son-e tima later Teto was captured by
Isdiaas, an it he iahabitsats were mas
sacred. Don Marcos, with his wife and
children, awaited deith cn their kcera
ia prtyer. They heard a rarty of savages
approchicg the hoa-, aa 1 felt that t!
end had come.
The hea l cfthe ban !, however, station
ed sec'.inels around the house and gave
this order, "Not a hair of the hea I of
thi j c;aa or his family is to be toujLed, on
piia cf Jeath. "
The family of D-iirte was the oaly one
that was spjrel. The In liaa who had
inspired the pity cf Don Marcos was
piying bis dept.
Twenty years afterward ia a 3ccces-jfa!
uprising the Indians sacked a uamb?r of
villages aad country houses. They re
treated loaded with spoil aad dragging
with tLe:n many hoasiehold servants, of
whom they intended to make slaves.
The chief cf the expedition asked one cf
them what was the came cf his mas
ter. "Doc Marcos Daarte, " he replied.
The chief immediately called a halt.
"How many mea belong to Don Mar
cos?" he acked.
"Twenty-four," repliel the min t
whom he had spoken.
"Name them," said the chief.
Having collected the tenty-foar mea
he returned to them the spoil which hail
come from the Daarte house an I said, "Go
home, frien-1; you are free. " It was the
Indian oacj mr pAying his deoL
