SOWING AND REAING.
By JENNIE T. HAZEN
"Ocilla to the barn with me; sir!

These words were spokenj in my hear
ing by an angry father to his boy, Jim
Thorne,-who had told him 4. He.
- The boy follo,wed his ather, who
'Stopped on his way and eu la. whip the
s i lze of an ox goad, and soon file sound

Now, reader, don't hold up both yibur,
panda and say, " horrible !. what cruel,
unnatural parents they•were!"
They were no such thing; they were
!pleasant, agreeable' people enough; hon;
est and upright as he world goes; and
meant to bring up their children right,
and wouhl'have been angrYsindeed, had
any due said they Were harsh and un
kind in the treatment oFtheir children,
or that they taught, them to)ie.
When the heating was finisb,ed„when
Deacon Thorne
,had' demonstrated his
power, when he; as 'an earthly father,
had thine toward his child as he imag
ined I'ls Heavenly jrather would do to
ward him, the law pf 'revenge was sat
isfied, and he thre* down the rod and
bent his steps hot4ward.
I fett that- if I met hini, there must
surely be a collision, and I fled to my
chamber and threW myself into a, chair
at' the window that overkioked . t
porch,. where Jimaiy's mother was at
work.
I watched the father as lie walked ra
pidly down the path. There was no
sign of pity 9,r sorrow on his face, but
instead, an expression of satisfaction of
living done a good thing, vindicated
his authority, punished the boy. for m s,
sin, and : set hisfieetl in - the path of rec
titude:
As he came near to his wife, he. said :
" I guess I've given him a trouncing
tirreLaratt. - What
in the world makes that'boy 'lie so ? I
am sure I don'it know."-
I.listetied•with strained ears :for dome
,words of condemnation from the moth
er, bot listened vainly, • She only war
ked over, her butter thamore busily. •
I, tob, wonder : what made the boY
tell lies • lie 'came of good,,honest stock;
'as far i ,back as could be remembered,
none of his race bad been imprisoned,
or hanged,; nonent them - % had been re
markpnle as liars. Jim would lie ;
there as no question of that, and I re
solved to know/why.
, ; Deacon Thorne shaved, washed and
combed himself, and I heard him ask
his wife•for Mean •shirt. It was not
Sunday, and I Wondered Where he was
going, and, Yankee like, guessed•it out.
He ,belonged to the Baptist church, and
to-day.was CoOnant meeting" day.
Prettysoon I heard• him come out Upon
the steps and say to his wife: • - -
" Nancy, itseems to me you might
get your work done up, so .as••to go to
covenant mecting sometimes. It don't
look . Well for you, a cl it plagues me ;to

in rather ';a tart"tone, "'that I've 'no
