:.nise.l the recording angel more trouble,
broken up more old fricudships, pro
duced moru family jirs, and, in tho
form of veal, begotten more Indigestion
and tho insomnia resultant therefrom,
tiian but this is not an essay on tho
sinful, sportive steerlet and his short
comings. The Walkers and the Rencdicti had
I cen o'.l ucighbors for years, "hack in
Ioway." In fact, the elder Walkers,
and the tldcr Benedicts had been
married about the same tia.e, at the
beginning of tbo war, and had just
settled ou adjoining homesteads when the
tirt w;is fired ou Fort Sumter.
The men emitted in the same company,
fought side by side, ate and slept and
sutlcred together; and at home their
young wives waited and wept together.
When tho little Walkers and the little
I'eueJicts grew largo enough to run
about, they were playmate and boon
companions; the children of one fauilv
felt as much at liberty in the home of
the other as they did in their own for
twenty eight years the two familiis had
lived in peace and amity, and then that
miserable calf precipitated an irreparable
row. It was too bad, all the neighbors
sai I, but it is a noticeable fact that none
of them attempted to patch up a peace
life in Il.e.ey Township and at
Ilickey Corners would have been dull,
indued, but fur the feud; so everybody
sit by and watched .ach new phase of
the atfair with nervous, morbid interest,
and commented thereon, but not in a
manner likely to prove conducive to a
truce on the part of tiie disputants.
It was this way. "Toe Benedict and
Walker houses had been built on adja
cent corners of the homestead quarter,
and were ipiite close together; in fact,
one well, sunk oa the quarter-section
1 1 r; e between the two "homesteads, hi I
furnished water f'r both families for toe
titst four years after coming to D.ikot.i,
and it was on!y a shoit distance from
either house.
But it came to pass that on tho Walker
domain there was born, and grew, and
wised fat and '-sassy," a brindle calf,
with a right smart chance of white in its
eye and a plethora of deep-dyed mischief
iu its soul and he (for it was a young
gentleman "critter"), while yet of ten
der age but tough record, engendered,
the feud. lie had wandered away tho
day before, and when he returned at
night the ate of the calf. pen was shut
against him; and iu the morning, when
Tapa Beuedict arose from post-breakfast
family prayers, and, followed by the
youn-er male Benedicts, hied him to
ward the stable, he beheld his neigh
bor incipient steer nipping in the bud
6undry young and toothsome cabbages,
and kicking out of the eaith, in his
b.ivinc abandon all he cou'.d not eat.
Then was Papa Beuedict wroth, and
thereupon did he give way to naughty,
profane word.-, whilo the young Bene
dicts surrounded the offending calf an I
brought him up for judgment.
. Now, I'apa Benedict was a man ot
hasty temper, but easily calmed; so,
when the calf was tendered him at the
end of a Ions; picket rope, his wrath had
decreased several decrees, and he wound
the iojie around his lnd and started to
lead the calf home.
It was while he wns pondering on
what to say to the call's o-.vuer that the
calf suddenly remembered a previous
engagement, arid stalled, in some haste,
tokeep it, heading directly across the
croquet ground. I'apa Benedict wished
to follow with more dignity than the
cilf desired; and, presently, his feet
were scraped from under him by a
wicket, and he was l.uin hnndled the
way the v.npieros in South America are
supposed to make butter at the end of
a lasso. He did not lo-;k very neat
when, a few minutes later, lie reached
the Walker ve-idence and called his
neighbor out. He was holding the calt
up shi rt, but his temper had slippel its
tether, and caused him to say bad words,
to which Pupa Walker replied in kiud
whereat Papa Benedict seized a conven
ient neck yoke and killed the cause of
the trouble.
Of course there was a Sght and con
siderable ill-chosen language; then, as
soon as possible, Papa Benedict acj
Papa Walker for tho damage to his cab
bages, and Papa Walker sued Papa
Benedict for the value of the calf. After
that; they prosecuted each other for as
sault and battery ; the younger members
of both houses "sassed" each other at
every available opportunity ; Mrs. Walker
and Mrs. Benedict did no more "neigh
borin'"; and Mort Benedict and Nellie
Walker "busted up" with each other.
That is, Nellie broke with Mort, who,
for his part, had a wholesome contempt
for feuds and such nonsense, and would
faiu have ignored tho.state of aiTalrs, so
far as Nellie was concerned, except for
the opposition any overtures from hit-i
would have received oa ad side?, and
especially from Nellie. So ho had to
grin and tear it, leaving, however, all
l.ostilities to tho others, and speaking
pleasantly to any of tho Walter he
cnauced to meet.
But, fiually, thrc jgh a rash act of his
own, he was forced into the feud. There
was a husking bee, cf the good old fash
ioned srrt, at Thompson's, one night,
and tho younger members of the hostile
houses a. tended. During the evening,
Mort found a red ear in his pile, and
i.e ucver knew what impelled hira to do
it, uuless it wss that Neliie looked so
pretty and tempting he took his former
kueechert in his arms and kiaoed her,

till the end of tbs feud, tta tried to act
as though he did not care just as did
Nellie, who, however, was obliged to
confess to herself, once in awhile, that
be did care, "lota."
The spring of 183 Is a memorabk
one in the history of many portion ol
the Dakotas. The amount of rain ia the
fall, and the snowfall of the winter pre
ceding, had been very slight, indeed,
and there were no spring raina to en
courage the farmers. The creek beds
and coules were dry; the lake beds and
sloughs were as innocent of water aa
powder-magazines; and the matted
grasses and reeds standing in them were
as dry as was the grass on the prairies.
Everything invited the fire fiend, whose
work on the plains is so swift and thor
ough and he accepted the invitation.
. From the wheat regions up north came
tales of his deadly work of counties
almost entirely laid waste, of hundreds
made homeless and penniless, with noth
ing left, even wherewith to wring their
bread out of the soil.
In C County and its neighborgj
however, all felt secure; the fires were
far north of thrm, and being gradually
exterminated. Besides, they were in the
Jim River VU7; it is curious how much
confidence the prsximity of a river will
give to the settler who is threatened by
prairie fires.
Mort Benedict and bis father were re
turning from tho county town one day,
having been in to liave "mother" for a
two days' visit, and to have the breaking-:
plow repaired. For a day or two there
had been r jmors of fires only twenty
miles or so to the north, and they were
talking of this as they crossed the bridge,
four miles from home. As they reached
the top of the bill on the west aide oi
the river, Mort glanced at the northern
horizon, which was not distant, on ac
count of a range of hills running east
and west, and
Did his eyes deceive him, or was thai
smoke, just rolling up above the line o'
I hills
"Look, father!"
Startled, the elder man did so.
"Good heavens, Mort I She's a comin
an' comin' fast! We got t' race, t' save
anything!"
And race they did, but the Cre was
racing, too; and when they drove their
panting horses Into the door-yard, the
tliraes were only a few miles away and
coming down at lightning speed.
Whilo Tom and II y saddled theli
ponies and rounded up the live stock.
Mr. Benedict ami the three elder boyi
a ad Bessie, in an incredibly siioit s met
of time, put into the two wagons every
thing that it was possible to nave, af:er
winch Hal and George Middled their
! ion ics, joined Tom and I toy with the
lerd, and the whole profession, heide l
by the two wagons, driven by Misrl and
his father, moved oil at a rapid pace to
ward the river.
Then, and only then did Mort notice
that there wa no sign of human life
about the Walker place. His heart gave
a leap.
"Bess 1" he said, sharply; "did uio
they cit away I Did ye notice 'e.u inovin'
round I"
The girl's eyes opened wide. "Oh,
Mort ! I havcu'l heard or seeu a sign o
'em all day 1"
"Take them icins. I'm goiu' bac)
au' see."
He leaped from the wagoa anJ Taa
back, notin-.', as he did so, how hot the
air hail become and how near tho big
wave of smoke was.
Mrs. Walker, singing softly as shi
.bustled about th kitcnen. was a bit
f tat tied to see who her unaunounced
v.sitor was.
"Mis' Walker, where's all your meu
folks? No, I didn't cjnie fer trouble

oil. an' comin' down like mad!"
Mrs. Walker sank into a chair. "Oh.
heaveus,' An' father sick a bed an' ai
th' boys over t' Berry's o.a a breakin'
bee!" "Good heavens! Aint I glad I com
back! Where's th' hc.s-e-?"'
"Oh, Mort 1 They're ail loose in th
paster !"'
"Git what thi'is ya wantuh s-.v
t'gether real qiiicn ! They ain't uo sp-tr
time." Ami .I-nt tore out of the housi
like a ina iman, and down to the pa-t ae,
not noticing that Neilie ill I entered th;
kitchen and was staling at l.iin, open
eyed. Both Mr. Walker's w-.v'on teams werr
composed of animals usually as docile p.
lambs; but, to-day, bundle I in a corner
of the pasture, tiiey snitle 1 the coming
flames, and it seemtd to put wild imps
into their lumberiug carcasses, and it was
a long, trying tima before Moit could
catch two of them, try a he miht and
the great rue roliei swiftly nearer. The
wind had shifted from northeast to
northwest. Mort saw, with a sinking at
his heart, that there was a:i even chance
of getting cut off from the river.
Mr. Walker was ou a feather bed oa
tho floor of the wagon, and Mrs. Walker
crouched beside him. Nellie ran back
into the house for the family Bible, tiieu
climbed up beside Mojt.
"Git up! Clk!" Tho heavy whip came
down hard on the hordes' flanks, and the
raca was begun.
Faster came the Camcs; the billows
of tin ike rolled over them, now and
then dropping feithery grass-cinders aj
it passed; they could hear the roar of
the lire and feel its hot breath whenever
the wind increased ia velocity and Jiir
Biver so faraway!
Nearer came the great wave of fl ime;
the air was dense and suffocating. Mort,
in his frenzy, lashed the now running
horses incessantly. Mrs. Walker wept
and prayed; Mr. Walker now and then
gave a leeble moan; Nellie, on the seat
beside Mort, kopt her lips tight closed
a-id said nothing, only clinging to the
sei. uioie desperately as the wagon
bounced und lurched.
Mort looked at her; her silence an
gered him. "Git oiln th' seat!" he
roared. "How d'ye thialf I c'n drive,
with you sittiu' thar!"
The girl obeyed, and fell, rather than
climbed, bacK into the box.
Mort Benedict's recollections of what
occurred after that arc very dim. He
remembers driving deeper and deeper
into the terrible he it and smoke, of
tearing through a Klumo of flsme that
seemed cudless flame that burned hi;
eyes, his nostrils, his throat, and
scorched his hair and eyebrows then,
with a final leap, tho horses dashed down
the slope into tuo shallow river, and hr
knew uo more.
When Mort awoke, he could not for
some time realize where he was, and lay
for some minutes trying to remember.
Oh, yes; he was In Will Berry's room.
Ho remembered tho antlers on the wall
and the white curiaics at the windows.
Some one cams ia so.tly troui tho next
room.
Who is it!" he askel. - '
It was Nellie, aud she came and leaned
over him. "It's uie, Mort. I've be'o

' Antiquity of the Saw.
The saw is an instrument of high an
tiquity, its invention being attributed to
either Die lalus or to bis nephew Perdix,
also called Talos, who, having found the
j r.v of a serpent and divided a piece of
wood with it, was led to Imitate tho
teet'u in iron. Iu a bass-relief pub
lished by Winckelman, Die lalus is rep
resented holding a saw approaching very
closely in form to the Egyptian saw. St.
Jerome seems e'early to allude to the
circular saw, which was probably used,
as at present, in cutting veneers. There
are also Imitations of the uie of the cen
tre bit, and even in the time of Cicero it
was employed by thieves. Pliny men
tions the use ot the saw in Ancient Bel
gium for cutting white building stone; I
si.ini of the oolitic and cretaceous rociis
are still treated In the same manner, both
in that part of the Continent and in the
south of England. In this case Piiny
0r toothed saw. The saw without teeth
was then usad just as it is now by the
worker in marble, and the place of
teeth was suppliei, according to the
hardoer s of the stone, either by emery
or by various kinds of sand of inferior
hardness. In this manner the ancient
artificers were able to cut slabs of the
hardest rock, which consequently were
aa,,ted to receive the highest polish,

I!as a Finger-Kiduclnr Talent.
The Patent O.H.'o has granted a pat
ent on a device worthy of the ancient
i.lree'vS. It is a system of finger-taper-nig
and joint-reducing bands. Tue idea
is to make thimble-shaped bunds of thin
and pliant aluminum iu sets of various
sizes to tit the fingers and thumbs, and
by wearing them at night gradually pro
duce the slender and tapering digits so
muoh admired by the lashiona'ile half of
the world. The aluiniuum bands are
provided with riu;s which are crowded
down on the outside s- us to compress
tho tiugers and drive t.ie blood back to
any desired 6t-ite of dimiuutiveness. The
letters patent do not state whether the
uSi of this new device is attended with
puin or not. It is said these bands havo
been thoroughly tested by several of the
best known women of fashion in Wash
ington and New York, and they speak of
them la the highest terms of praise. The
leading merchant in cosmetics and toilet
articles la Chicago is forming a stock
company to boy the patent aad boo m
the Suger tapercr at the World's Fair.
The patentee says his idea will go like
wildfire, as have so many other inven
tions to produce beauty, and he thinks
his patent is worth at least $5J,000.
