He had a queer drown face, this old man, an plowed with a network of wrinkles, and little black eyes with a scanty ultowaiice of laches, that looked at you like glistening heads. Not the sort of a man to eonfi.le a love tale to, nor to sympathize with the tender out pourings ; and how Judge IVHiam ever came to le the father of a glorious girl like Kate, with the lieauty of lk-U', wtis a riddle that we leave to thoe hamed in physiology and psychology. "ies, sir," said Hugh Kearney, hravcly. "I am in love with her, and if I a m so fortunate as to gain your per mission to pay her my addresses" "Stop!" said the old gentleman. "Not so fast. One thing at a time, young sir. hat have you got ?" "A strong arm, sir, and a brave heart together with, I hope, at least, an av erage amount of drains." 'Very good stock in trade," answer ed the judge, still regarding Mr. Kear ney with the little hard glistening beads of eyes. "Aha, Mr. Curdeton, is that you ? Walk in and sit down. I'll be disengaged presently." Then you will give my ease a favor- ble conxiderat ion, Judge," said Hugh, rising to depart. "I will, sir." And Hugh went out a tall, hand some fellow, with pleasant dark eyes and a firm, squarely cut chin, which lictokcns no ordinary amount of reso lution and will. Kent Carieton sat in the o:Tice, un easily glancing over the large russet- iKiund volumes, when the Judgw delit- erately turned himself round ia his re volving chair. He, toj, was haii Iconic, with straight elleminate features, blue eves and wavy hair. 'I have called, sir, on very import ant business," began Kent, hesitating ly. "Eh ! What may it lie?" deliUrate- !y questioned the Judge. Kent would have given all he was worth if the browu old man would have put on a pair of sjiectacles. Those beady eyes confused and liewildercd him. It's about your daughter Kate, sir," said Carlelim. "I love her. and if you have no objections " 'Ah, said Judge, "exactlyso. Of course you have means to support a wife?" 'As to means, sir, I am yet only lie- ginning the world ; but I have expect ations, and, added to that, I am about to commence the practice of the pro fession in which you h ave reached so brilliant a iosit ion !" He liowed. The Judge was still transfixing him with the beady eyes. "You may go. I'll let you know my descision to-morrow. Carleton's footstep had hardly died away upon the threshold when the Judge ojicned a door to the left of him and called : "Kate!" Miss 1'clham came in tall, blooming, H, with eyes of poft liquid blue, da mask cheeks and hair of real poet's gold. How strange she liok among the dry old law-honks and liaize-covcred desks, and the packets oflegal papers splasheil with scarlet seals like magni fied drops of blood. "Well, papa?" "Do yon want to get nurried, pjt?" "Well, papa, I hardly kuow wheth er I door not !" she answered reflect ively. "Ileeause I've had two yojng ni 'ii men lc-re asking rk-rmission to pay their addreses to yoj." "Two young nr.'n, papa! Who were they ?" "Jith eligible, as far as outward cir cumstances go ; not rich, but sensible and enterprising, I've reason to think ; and for my part I don't iK-lieve in too much ready-made money." "iitit you have not told me yet who they are !" "Hugh Kearney and Kent Carlcton,' answered the Judge. "Which do you like better of the two?" "Why, Papa, I like them t-oth. Hugh is a g.Kkl, solid fellow, and Kent has so much style." "Hut you can't marry 'em both !" "l'a," htuglutl Kate, coming up so that her curls fairly overflowed the browu face with the lieady black eyes, "you choose for u I really haven't any actual preference in the matter. I could like either of them ; and, after all, it isn't like selecting a lover, be cause I can make up my mind any time." "S you want the old dad to select for you, do you? Well, well, I'll think it over ami let you know." The Judge put on his hat and went out for a walk in the summer twilight to clear his brain of the cobwebs in ducafd by his day's work. "Hallo T he cried, as lie stumbled over a meditative old Irishman, who was standing staring alxiut him with a rigged old waterproof coat hanging on his anil. "What do you mean by ob structing the' highway in that sort of fashion, Hannegan?" "Faith, it's I that axes your honor's pardon kindly, but sorra a bit I knows where I'm goin'. Perhaps your honor could tell me." "How the mischief do you suppose I can tell you, if you don't know your self, you Irish blunder-head?" set ESTABLISHED 1827. PA., .WEDNESDAY, "They're lawyers like your honor,' went on the persistent Hannegan "and since 15id.lv Kourke that's ne? sister, your honor, that washes for all the quality hurt her ankle bone, hhe says, she Terry,' says she, she says, get the money they're owin me, it's I that'll thank you kindly savs he, 'and I'll do as much for you,' says she. 'for it's Mr. Carleton and Mr. Kear ney' " "Oh !" ejaculated the Judge ; "Carle ton and Kearney, eh? Yes: I know where they live, ami I'll go along with you and show you, if you'll lend me your overcoat and just change hats with me." "Sure, your honor, it's too ragged- like for the likes o' you !" "That's my business," said the Judge alertly transforming himself into an old loafer by the batter.il hat and rusty overgarment or Terrene Hannegan, "Now, look here, if you call me any thing but Larry Itierdon I'll send you to the lockup for twenty-lays." Terrcnce started and grinned. "All right, yer " "Stop!" roared the Judge. "I mane Iirry ! And is this the, sir? I would be after saying, Mister Itcird.m?" "This is the door, Terry." And without knocking the Judge pushed Terry into the hotel reading room, where he stood with his head drawn in U'tweeu his shoulders and nearly covered by the Irishman's too large hat, while Haiinegan boldly con fronted the j-oung men. Carleton was writing a letter, Kear ney sat tipjied back on his chair look ing over the pajK-r, and one or two others were lounging about, grumbling at the dismal monotony of the village in which they found themselves le- ca lined over night. "Money !" ejaetulated Carh-ton, ir ritable, as the Irishman m id.-known his errand. "Wiiat ni.Kicy ? It's but a little while since I s-.ttle I that bill ; there must be a mere trifle owing now !" 'It's five dollars, sir five dollars and siventy cents; and ISiddy's laid up wil a br:k-n ankle and five little tines, sir ; an if you'd pla.se t; let me have the money, I've Kiddy's receipt sir" "Hang your receipts, man I've no money to spare ! Don't bother me !" "For shame, Carleton !" spoke up Hugh Kearney. "Pay what you owe the woman. Would you let her and ier little tines starve?" "It don't hurt that class of pp:iple lo starve," heartlessly answered Carleton. "As for the little ones, the less we have among us to pry- taxes for, the better ! It isn't convenient for me to settle the account to-daj- that's niGtigh." And he turned away an 1 bent over his writing again, a little uneasy be neath the withering look of scorn dart ed at him froi 1 Hugh Kearney's eyes. 'Come here, my man," said the lat ter, addressing Terry Hannegan, who stood scratching his head in gore icr- plexity. "How much do I owe Mrs. Kourke? I ought to have attended to it soomr; but I waited as usual, for her to send in her bill. 'It's only two dollars and a half, sir, for yer honor," answered Tcnvtnv, "but " "Well, here's a five dollar bill. Kid dy can work it out when her ankle g.'ls lietter. And if she is really in want or sufTvring, tell her to send to me and I'll come and see lier.V "tfure, your honor, ami I'll do that same ; and it's Unpin' the hlisscd saints may make your honor's lied in heaven, and wishin' there was many like you ; and Kiddy'II le the thankful woman, that she will, and" Kut at this stage Terr3' Haun:-g.in's companion, who had stood by the door motionless all the while, shouldered him out, still uttering think and blessings as he went. "Here," said the Judge, as they stej-p-.il out once more on the pavement, "take your overcoat. Terry, and let's change hats again ; for I begin to feel radical and revolutionary already." "Feel how, your honor?'' "Nevermind. Here give this mon ey to your sister from me, and Ik? alout your business." So the Judge dismissed his ragged companion and returned to the dingg r.om, liack of the law olliee, where Kate sat by a shaded lamp." "Wei?, papa," said Kate, laughing ly, "have you decided yet?" " "Yes I have derided." "Which is it to b ?'' "Carleton is a Irearile sf mn Ire!, and will treat the v nn in who is his wife as n- worn in would wis'.i or d e serve t- be treated." "Papa, how do you know?" "No matter how I know. I've a way of finding out things for myself, child." "And Mr. Kearney?" "If you can get him, take him. He is a fine fellow." And the Judge sat down to write two brief notes, one of which Carleton read the next in rning with contracted brow and savage eyes. "What does the pedantic old fool mean? What can he possibly have heard about me which convinces him that I am not the person to render his daughter's life a happy one?" Kut that was exactly what Mr. Carle ton never learned. And Kate, the Judge's golden-haired daughter, was married six months from that day to Hugh Kearney. AYkt Yurk Xt tr.

Tnt rearj soma hundreds of thou- sands of families in America whose possessions in the dairy line comprise but one cow each. It is of the highest .1.111 i;iiie-e to .sura taurines inai toe cow in each case should lie not simply passably good," or even "very good," but the Isest that is attainable with the money that is at hand tor the purchase of such a milk and butter supplier. It is notorious that many of these family cows do not return half in the quality of their milk yield what their owner might receive if the same extienuituic of care and feed Were lietowed up:ni a cow with well developed dairy riirae-t.-ristie.s, which in very many cases their impr ,jx rly called "family cows" do not now isissess. The special needs of individual families differ largely as regards dairy suppb.-s, but in the aver age famiiy it is richness of milk that would yield the greatest satisfaction, and would prove the greatest assistance in decreasing the cost of living. In the selection of a i-ow to lie-t meet the uccdsnf this large class of jieople, the Jersey presents strong claims to a favorable recognition, for in the rich ness of her milk she is admittedly un surpassed while in the quantity of her yield she is, if well bred, not inferior. The Jersey cow is remarkable also for the wonderful economy of her food consumption compared with the rich ness of hir product. The breed is magnificantly endowed by nature with the ability to turn the large-t ji-xmIiIc proiHirtiou of the fmsl eaten into b-itU r solids a trait that has lieen intensified by decade of careful and scientific breeding and this, it should be rem embered, is the supreme test of the dairy cow. From a business jmiiil of view, the Jersey is unexcelled as a family cow, and her experience i;; this jicct will perhaiManK'uI most rtrou- ly to tie average family. The family cow in many families is, in very truth. member of the ho;is-hold, and has the prii'.e of at least t!m younger inem-!K-rif the family cent' red in lu r. There is no more lieautiful object i:i the iuimal world than the gr.i.-efu!, mil.'i- eed Jersey, and there is no dumb friend more worthy to associate on terms of intimacy with the family. She is companionable, afii-ciionate, gentl.' ainl supremely lieauliful to the sight, and whe:itht-.';e.-thrticqualit!cs are added to the rarest excellence in the purely practical line tif dairy produc tion, they stamp the Jersey as the unrivaled family row. A Sy.h:eliiII Once a Ejar. Dining on one occasion with Karon James de Kothsc'.iid, Kugelie Delacroix the fuiiK-.tis Frcm-li painter, kept bis yes turned uy-.m his host in so market a mamur that when the company n.-c to leave the dining room Kar-;i Jam' s could not help akitg his guest w'.i.it i: was that so attracted his attention. The painter confes.-ed that for some time past he had vainly sought a h-'ad to serve as a model for that of a U-gg.tr lie intended to hold a prominent hi5 tion in a painting on which he was then eiigagil, and that, as he gay.nl a: his host's features the idea suddenly struck hint that the very lieu 1 he de sired was U'fore him. With this ex planation he ventured to :ik the Baron whether he would do him th" favor to sit for him as a beg:.ar. il iths child, Iseing a great admirer of art in all its forms and please 1 to lie consider ed one of its chief patrons, readily iin sented to aAsuuie a character newr lie fore undertaken by a millionaire. The next day found him at the painter's studio. Delacroix placed a tunic road his shoulders, put a stout stair in his hand ami made him p-ise as if he were resting on the .-teps of an ancient I! nii.;n temple, in this attitude he was dis covered by one of the artist's favorite pupils, wi.o alone had free access io the studio at all titties. Struck by the sur passing excellence of the mode', the newcomer congratulated his master t'.t having at last found exactly what b: wanted. Naturally comlidioe: tln.t the model hail only just been br v in from some rinireh i"rc!i, am! i.. dreaming tiie character assume.

Uiiid Lives of the Cat It i-a pp ;iar s tying that pus.-has nine lives, and it isa fact, says the New York " H'.(," tiie treatment tii ;t would kii! maiiy olherauimalsdiK's not kill a eat. A recent Kngiish autiiority irives s-iiue illustrations of this. There used to lue a fanner's cat named Joy, who was very fond of horses, tunl used nearly always to shvp in the stable e.f'eti on the lack of one of her friends. Once she was n-everely kicked, and o:e "f the ;a'o'.eiue:i found her stretched Ui tile gr rill I .-tiiTaU-le o l llethrewth." b ly oat oo . I rue;".iill, where it lay all day in the sun. In theeveliing a milk maid thought she saw si-nsof life in it, and took pussy into the kitchen. Iu three days puss had entirely recovered. Another cat, found in a trap, was brutally beaten all-out tiie head by a keeper, who when he had Killed it, h ; thought, cut otT it t;iil as a trophy. Her mistress carried home what she rt gar I -d as tiie corpse; but iu three wei :s the cat was running about as wel! as ever, though minus tier tail. Ou another occasion a y going to sen.,! threw a stone at a cat. It struck her head, a id she fell dead, as he thought. He threw her Usly inaeo.-n-tit 1.1, w!n re he saw- it lying for three days as be pas-ni. On the fourth day, however, it was i;one, ami. snort lynttcr- ward the in l.-ntictil rat was washing its luce on its ma-ter's doorstep as usual. Anotht r J y, seeing an old woman bury thr.v kiit-ns aiive, dug them up, and although th.y had U-eii fr an hour 1 j underground, saved the lives of two of them. A still mere remarkable case of resus citation is that in which a farm hand, getting angry with a cut, attacked her w itii a whip, but when he h id nearly Killed her she escaped. Ik ing unable to catch her again he rhast d her into a hoh- iu a wall, and then stopped it up with stone and lime. Here the animal remained half dead for a week, when lu-r master, su-pectiiig what had lcn done, released her. In a few weeks she was well again. Burial alive see-' i sto agree particular ly well with cats. A Scotchman, wish ing to get rid of a cat, dcteniiitied to disp.se of her in this way, thinking she I would l-e soon sufi's-ated. He tied her 1 i:i a bag, dug a h le in the garden and c lvered her with earth. The next day he went to view the tusly, and was sur prised to see the cut jump out of the bag alive, and str.uig enough to ocajie by running. The well-knewn jsiwer that cats have of alighting on their feet when they fall or are dropped from a height, even back downward, combined with their wonderful capr.eity fer taking hard blow s,has some! inn s resulted curiously. For instance, a cat in Dundee, Scotland, sprang for a canary that hung in a cage by a fourth story window. She missed the bird and went out of the window, Uit struck on her feet and walked off as if nothing had happened. Then there was a case' in which a man, finding a cat killing his pigeons, which were kept in the attic of a eight story house, kicked the animal through an open w indow. Ou going down ttairs he was surprised to see her get up and walk off. Father of Josie Kansfield a Pioneer in California.
