down to the red and golden leaves in
jewelled showers when the October
blasts were revelling in its giant limbs.

"with the best on 'em."
Charley was home for Thanksgiving,
too—home from his New-York clerk

gained that indescribable off-haud air
of city ease that the widow marvelled
at, but could not explain. And even

"I know a plan," said Tom, planting
his white teeth in the crimson side of

" What is it ?" .
" Why, when,first I went to Squire
Parker's store I had an all-fired hank
ering after— ,)
"Thomas," said Susan, gravely, "what
language!"
"After raisins, and lemon balls and
sugar, and such ; so one day the Squire
just made me sit down and eat away at
'ern from morning till night.,. Good
Jacob.! never wanted to set eyes n 'cm
again.”
"A very interesting piece of personal
history." said Charles seriously, "but
I don't see what it has to do with the
subject iu hand."
"Don't you see ? if mother had trouble
enough and to spare, Just for once, she'd
be glad enough to give it a wide berth
afterwards."
"Tom," said Charley, stopping short
In the middle of the road, "you are cer
tainly a little ne'er-do-well, ' but there
may be something in this plan of yours,
after all." -
The turkey was smOking on the table
brown and crackling and odorous, when
the three children returned from church
—the tarts were perfect, and tie tum
bles of pink apple-jelly, fringed with
thistle paper, would have set a city cop
fectioncr mad with jealousy. )Vlore
over, the Widow had opened a bottle
of nine-year old currant wino to cele•
brate the close of the banquet, to say
nothing of the stone pitcher of crystal
clear cider that sparkled besi it.
" There—set up, children,' said the
Widow as she arranged the last pum
kin. pie in its-allotted corner. "I haint
no appetite to eat."
Tom dropped his knife and fork.
Susan 'looked up dismayed. •
"Mother," cried Charley, "we can't
eat a mouthful unless you sit down to,
the table with us."
" sit down, then,—but I couldn't
swallow—my troubles has clear taken
away my appetite."
q_the Widow, sat,down, like a raven,
in bombazine andclear-starchedlmuslin,
and brooded sorrowfully above the ban
quet.
" And now, mother," said Susy, seri
ously, after the Thanksgiving meal had
been done ample justice to, "are you
ready to hear the news I wished to tell
you
"Yes ; I e''pose - I'm ai ready as ever I
shall be," said Mrs. Spencer, dolorously.
"There goes one of my best tumblers
smash on the hearth—nothing but Ill
luck comes to me. Oh, dear, I , don't
see much use in livin.' "
" Farmer 'Wyllie has turned me
away," said Susan soberly, "and he has
kept back three: , mont t bs, wages' for a
set;OglaSs I \ tae unfOrtunate enough
to break last, week."
"Turned you away? Then there'll be
no use your tryin' to get another place
anywhere 'round here," shrieked the
widow. "Oh, Susau, Susan, and
calculate on them wages to pay the
taxes this year. What ie t) become_, of
us?"'
" I don't know," said Susan, with a
sort of gloomy obstinacy. "You always
said we were hunted down by ill-luck,
mother, and I believe you were
_right.
And this is not the worst of it: `Squire
Piai Liu ri,*t boroomoncy out Or the
store, and believes Tom took it, and
Tom is never to show his face there
again."
"It's a lie," screamed Mrs. Spencer,—
"my Tom is honest as the day is long.
My Tom wouldn't touch a sixpencetiaat
don't belong to him."
"That may be," said Susan, "but ap
pearances are against him ; and Tom's
character just as much blasted as if
he had in reality been the thief."
Mrs. Spencer wrung her hands.
Come.here, Torn, my poor, persecu
ted boy, she sobbed. "I know you to
be no thief, and your old mother'll
stand by you if all the rest of the world
should turn away."
" As for me, mother," said Charley,
gloomily, I've left my place at Harker
& Co.'s, and I've made up my mind to
try my fortune, at the silver mines in
Nevada."
" Lett your place at Harker's? Char
ley; are you crazy ? And , such a nice
place as it was, with a fair chance for
promotion."
" Can't help that," said Charley,
shrugging his shoulders. "Who wants
to spend his life -in a plod-along old
hole like that? I want a• little adven
ture, and Stocks and lgerriman are
going out next week. 'P
" !The worst characters' 3x the vil
lage," pleaded the widow, eagerly. "Oh,
Charley, my son, don't go with them—
stay with your old mother, for pity's
sake. I'd rather see you in your grave
than mixed up with such a set, my boy."
But Charley sat sullenly, looking into
the tire, paying no heed to the piteous
appeal.
You wouldn't talk so, mother, if
you knew how necessary it was to make
money. The C—hank shut up last
night."
The bank where all our little sa
vings were,—oh, my son, what are we
to do ?"
" What other people , do, of course,
when trouble comes upon them."
" But I never had anY, trouble before,
at least not since your poor dear father
-died. And now it has all come at once.
• "Never had any trouble, mother?"
repeatO Charley, significantly,—"why,
it was only,this morning you were com
plaining that you neve r
had anything
else,"
" But I didn't real4e what I was
sayin," wailed Mrs. •Spencer, rocking
herself backwards and forwards. "I was
temptin' Providence in my :oily and
ill-temper! Oh, dear, if I could only
eeithy way clear through this real
troUble, I never would fancy any more
trial's!"
"Ai r e yod sure of that ,mother 1"
".Yes, sure; but 'it's too late now.
I've had a lesson I've had a bitter
lesson. Oh, why, didn't I know how
well off I was before ?" '
" Charles looked at Siisy. Susy looked
at TOM.
•
" Mother, it's all a hoax!" Cried the
latter impulsive youth, burying his
curly head in her bombazine lap. "The
bault did shut up cast night, abut it'll
open again to-morrow morning; and
• Squire Parker hasn't turned Me away,
;but he says he'll raise my wages too a
'dollar the first of January l',' f
Mrs. Spencer stared.
" The
,blessed, everlasting, hope-I-may
die if:it-isn't, truth !" .
"And, mother,"__ murmured busy,
playing nervously, with her mother's
Cap strings, "it's all nonsense about'
Farmer Wyllis turning mo away, or,
stopping my wages. I did break the
-glass; but the kind - farmer said it Wll9
nolault of mine, and—and mother, I'm
-going to be married to Elnathan Wyllis
next spring, and go to live at the farm
house for good !"
" Well, I never!" was all that the
astounded widow could find breath to
exclaim. "Married to Elnathan Wyllisl
,why he's the smartest fellow ,in the
township.n
".I. know it, mother," fluttered busy ;
"and uh, I am so happy I"
"And I, too,- have been deceiving
you, my poor little mother," said Char
ley, with a roguish twinkle In his eyes.
"I've no: idea whatever of 1;0114 to
Nevada, as long as Harker & Co., con
tinue to be the kind patrons and friends
they have hitherto proved !"
The widow looked from one to the
other of her laughing children in a sort
of happy bewilderment.
" Well, now," she said slowly, "will
you inform inc why on earth you told
me those awful stories?"
" Why, mother," said Tom, mischie
vously, "we thought perhaps a dose of
ma/ trouble would cure you of the
imaginary ones that have made you so
miserable,all your life long!'
" And you have solemnly promised
us, mother, that after this you would
conjure up no more fancied trials to
make yourself wretched !" coaxedSuay.
" Well, I don't see but what you've
got me, tight." said the , widow, half
disposed
to laugh, half inclined to lie
vexed. "Aint you 'shamed o' yourselves
children, to go and play such a mean
trick on your poor old mother? But
do say or't, there be worse troubles lii
the world than I've got 1"
The widow's Thanksgiving lesson
proved an efficacious one. She never
grumbled any more. •
" Mother always sees the sunshiny
side of things hew," :said Tom, "and
ain't it jolly ?"

ESCAPE : I RO/II JUSTICE
_____
Itiwas a bitter cold night in January
—a night when homeless wanderers on
the moors might have sunk down and
froze to the earth, and the very marrow
seems to congeal in one's bones.
" There is one advantage in steam,"
growled a fat old man in the corner seat
" wind and weather don't aflect it. No
flesh and blood horse could stand a
night like this, but the iron horse keeps
right ahead, whether the thermometer
is at zero or water boiling heat."
Just then the conductor entered.
"'Tickets, gents, if you please."
"It's a dreadful night, conductor." I
said, feeling with stiffened fingers for
my ticket in the breast pocket of my
coat.
"Dreadful," feelingly responded the
conductor. "Why, the brakesmen
can't live outside, and so I look the
other way when they creep in, poor fel
lows, to get a breath of warm air at the
stove. We haven't had such a night
since a year ago come the 2d day of

And the conductor opened the door
and plunged across the coupling, hito
the next cal., crying out:

It was quite a city, with a handsome
iron depot, Baring gas lamps, and the
usual crowd around the
. platform, with
hands in pockets, and cigar ends . tam
ing through the night.
Our car was nearly the last of the
long train, and but a single person en
tered It—a slender young girl wrapped
in gray blanket shawl, and wearing a
neat little traveling hat of gray straw.
h e seemed to hesitate like one unused
to traveling, and nuttily sat down near
the door.
" Pardon me, young lady," said I,
" but you bad better come nearer the
stove." -
She started, hesitated a moment and
•
obeyed.
" Does this train go to Bayswater ?"
she asked in a voice deliciously soft and
st,veet.
" Yes ; can I be of any service to you?
"Oh, no—at least, not until we reach
Bayswater-1 would like a carriage
there."
" We shall not reach there for three
I,IIOUI'S yet.
" Do, we stop again ?"
, "Only at Exmouth."
She drew a deep sigh, seemingly of
relief, and settled back iu a corner. By
the light of the lamp I could see her
face—that of a i lovely child ; apparent
ly she was not more than sixteen, with
large blue eyes,igolden hair drawn away
from her face, and a little rosy mouth,
like that of a baby.
• • " Do you expect friends to meet you
'at Bayswater, my child?" I asked lu
,oidentally.
" .NO, sir—l am going to school there."
" It will be an awkward hour for you
to arrive by yourself—one in the morn
ing." •
"Oh, I am not she a e
„ - . afratu,l she said, wits.
an artless laugh ; ” I shall go straight
to the Seminary." 11
So the express train Ihundered on,
with steady, ceaseless pulsing at its iron
heart, and constant roar.
Suddenly the s'gnal whistle sounded,
the train began t slack its speed.
Surely we're n t at Exmouth yet, I
thought, unless have fallen unconsci
ously asleep and, allowed the progress
of time to escape * me.
I glanced at m watch ; it was barely
half past eleven, and I knew we were
not due at Exmouth until a few minutes
past twelve. I rubbed- the frost from
the window pane and looked out.
We had stopped at a lonely little, way
station in the midst of the dense pine
woods.
" as this Exmouth ?"
' It was 'the Soft voice of the pretty
traveler opposite.
_ "No; don't know what place it is—
same way station."
" Does this train stop at way stations?
"Not generally; they must have been
specially signaled here. You are cold,
your voice trembles."
" It is cold," she said, in a scarcely
audible voice, drawing her shawl around
her. Oh, how I wish they would bur-,

Conductor"—for the man of tickets
was passing through the car—" mhy did
we stop at the backwoods place?"
"Out of water," was the reply, as he
hurriedly passed by.
Now 1 knew perfectly well that this
.answer was not the true solution of the
matter. Our delay .had not exceeded
half a minute altogether too short a
'time for replenishing the boiler; and
where on earth was the water to come
from in that desolate stretch of barren
woods? -
Five minutes after the conductor re
entered the car, and I made room for
him by my side.
" Sit' down, conductor, you have noth
ing to 4:lo this minute."
" What did you msan by telling me
Such d lie just now ?"
I spi_ilte under my breath; he replied
in the same tone—
" About what ?"
;•• "About the reason you stopped a
short time ago."
lie smiled.
"To tell you the truth, I stopped to
take- a single passenger—a gent' inan
has come down from Bayswater."
"F or the pleasure of traveling once
more - over the same mute?"
" Exactly, sir, for, the pleasure of
traveling it in certain society. Don't
be alarmed for your own safety—it's a

silence.
" Au 4 who Is the °Minder?"
" I don't know myself yet. Fle . pea't

Where is he?'
The detective? He sits by the door
yonder, with a ragged f,..r cap pulled
over his eyes. Did you ever see a more
perfect specimen . of the dilapidated
countrymau
I smiled; I could hardly help It.
What is the case V
'A murder—a man and his wife and
two children—thbir throats cut last
night and the house set Ore afterwards.'
Great heavens, whatA monster!'
We bad continued the conversation
in a whisper, scarcely above our breath,
and now the conductor Tow) and left me
to study the faces of. my fellow passen,-
gers, with curious dread and horror.
Somehow, often ns I revolved the
matters in my mind my. fancy would
settle on a' coarse cross-looking nutn
opposite, with a bushy beard, and a
shaggy wool coat, with the collar turn
ed up around hiQears. I felt convinced
that this man, With the brutal eyes, and
the heavy banging jaws, was the Cain
and as I looked Juni vely acros, I caught
the wide open, blue orbs of tille fair lit
tle girl.
Obeying the instaneOus lenpulse of
my heart, I rose and went over to her.
You heard what we were saying,
my little one?'
•
" Yes—murder—oh, how horrible) '
'Do not be frightened—no one shall
curt you.'
She smiled up s in my face with sweet
confiding innocOnee.
Our stay at Exmouth was but brief
but durin. , e the delay I cotlld see that the
detective had changed 13ps seat to one
nearer the brutish man In the shaggy
coat.
V' See,' faltered the young girl they
lOcked the doors at Exml•uth : they are
unlocking them now.'
She was right..
Probably they were fearful that the
criminal would escape,' I remarked in
au undertone.
' Will you—may I troubieyou to bring
me a glass of water ?'
I rose and made my way (towards the
ice cooler by the door, but with diffi
culty for the train was again under
rapid motion. To my disappointment
the goblet was chained to the shelf.
' No matter,' said she, with a winning
smile, I will come myself.'
I drew thci water and hell the cup;
but instead of taking it as She approach
ed, she hr,bshed suddenly past me,
opened the 'door and rushe - d - out upon
the platforill.
`Stop her ! stop her l!' shouted the de
tective sprhiging to hl's feet. 'She will
be killed; conductor-4rakesman—hold
up.'
There was a rush—a tumult--a bus
tle; I was the. first upon the platform ;
but it was empty and deserted, save by
a half, frozen brakestuan, who seemed
horror-stricken.
horror-stricken.
She went past, me like a shadow, anz
jumped off as we crossed Cairn turn
pike road,' Le - stamered. •
Jumped efi' the express train! \Yeti
she must have been killed instantly.
What mad folly I It's five' hundred dol
lars out of my pocket," said the detec
tive, ruefully. ' I did not want a reu

a confounded fool. A woman cornered

' What!' .1 ejaculated, ' you surely

' I mean' said the detectii - e, calmly,
'that child; as you call her, is Atilh.

years of age, who, last night murderet,
four persons in cold blood, and was try

I mean.'
The train was stopped, and a paity o:
us, led by the conductor and detective,
went back' to search for any trace of the
beautiful young creitiare, whose loveli
ness and apperaut,.linnocenco had ap
pealed to nay sympathies so earnestly.
Nor was it long before we found her.
lying quite dead by the side of the track,
filghtfully mangle:. by the force of the
fall, and mutilated almost beyond rec
ognition.
' Weil she's escaped justice in this
world, if not in the next," said .the de
tective, gloomily, as he stood looking
upon her remains. I
' Do you suppose she expected: J:0 be
able to spring off the moving train
withent injury ?' I asked.
' Without much injury—yes; women
are such unreasonable eratM - es. But I
never dreamed of such a 1 InLquie folly,
iit
or I should have taken pr4upt meas
ures to avoid :10,' ~,
They lifted up the fair,, dead thing,
carried it to the nearest phice of refuge
-a lonely farm house among the frozen
hills, and we returned to the train,
reaching Bayswater only a few minutes
behind our regular time.
And when, in the next morning's pa
per, I read the account of the. murder
ess, I thought of the slender creature's
blue eyes and rose-bud mouth with a
strange, pitying thrill at my heart.
REMEDIES FOR POISONS.—Cases of
poisoning often occur in which life
might be saved, and hours of agol*
averted, if we only knew what to do in
season. If a poison burns the throat
and acts violently upon the stomach,
swallow half a pint of sweet oil, or
melted butter or lard and, within Aye
minutes, take half a pint of warm NO
ter, in which has been stitred a tea
'spoonful' of ground-mustard and salt.

keeper, Joe Bigler, who wasa confedrit

Northerners Who have bought land
hereabouts, and the niggers wick were

These two antagonistic elements are
perpetually at war, and the result is a
