' MISS KATE, j
0 0
A BY JEAN E. SOMERTON. J
Slender, but not slim, with soft,
fcazel eyes and long lashes, pale com
plexion, light brown hair, with here
and there a strand of gray, not pretty
but attractive looking, simple in man
ner, speech and dress —that was Miss
Kate.
That she was an old maid was be
yond dispute. Her most intimate friend
would not have denied it if he could;
though for the matter ol' that he
could not, belonging, as he did, to the
feline species, and not being blessed
with the power of speech. She was
"turned" 35 if she was a day, and the
most hopeful of that social scourge as
match makers had long since
scratched her name off their list o?
possibilities.
Miss Kate lived in her own cottage,
and the lawn in front of it was the
neatest in Grantley, as the little par
lor inside was the tidiest. The cat
that monopolized the hearth rug in the
parlor of evenings was as sleek as
could be, and exceptionally well be
haved. The furniture was old-fash
ioned, but the easy chairs were com
-Ici table, and the room certainly had a
cozy appearance.
That Miss Kate had a good heart
and a kind one I can vouch for, and sp
could many a barefooted lad and many
an overworked factoiy girl. There
was no Sunday school teacher in
Grantley as beloved by her scholars,
and they all knew the flavor of her fa
mous cookies.
I was not surprised to hear one day
that Miss Kate had had a bit of ro
mance in her life that the younger
generation had never heard of and ti e
older ones had nearly forgotten. There
had been a certain handsome young
man who had courted her in the old
days and not unsuccessfully. He had
been practicing' law for three or four
years and his prospects were bright.
He was genial in his manner, but
pioud to a fault. He was tall and
broad shouldered, had very black hair
and eyes to match.
He had never been a lady's man, and
despite the fact that many jaunty caps
were set for him, he had not responded
until he met Kate Morton at a church
festival. From that evening he was a
determined wooer ,and although she
i!id not apparently reciprocate at
first, his youth, good looks and a win
ning tongue were finally successful
So at last she loved him in return —
and the gossips began to wonder when
the day would be set and to surmise
among themselves that it had been ser
and was still a secret. Whether it
really had or had not ben Seth Gray
knew and Miss Kate knew, but the
gossips never found out.
Of the matrimonially inclined young
ladies who had set their caps for Seth
Gray before tae fateful church festi
val, none had sot t'.:om so art
fully and hopefully as Barbara
Martin, She was a pretty girl,
with sparkling black eyes and
wont to deck out in the gayest colors
and ribbons imaginable. She had
Spanish blood in her veins, and was
proud of it, and proud of her temper,
too. Although Seth had never paid
lie" any serious attention, she had ap
peared atractive to him until he met
Kate, If it had not been for that there
is no telling what might have hap
pened.
Miss Martin was nof a young lady
to submit to a total eclipse calmly,
and one clay, about the time that the
gossips had setled it satisfactorily,
among themselves that the day had
finally been set, she came to the con
elusion that matters had progressed
far enough, and made an afternoon
call on her successful rival. She left
her pretty airs and graces at home
with her gay ribbons that day, and
was a sad enough figure when her
hostess ushered her into the parlor—
the same little parlor, although Miss
Kate's mother was living then, and it
was brighter to her then it was in
after years.
Barbara Martin told her story well,
and wept seemingly bitter tears over
it. She told how Seth Gray had wooed
and won and had promised to marry
her, and how the day had been named,
and how he had kept up the cruel de
ception ever after he met Kate her
self, and how heartlessly he had finally
thrown her over and laughed at her.
Then, when she saw that the girl at
her side appeared sorely troubled, she
became remorseful and vowed that she
ought not to have told her. Then she
grew hysterical and railed against all
men, and despised herself for an idiot
to have trusted one of them.
Her audior was very quiet through
it all, but Barbara Martin knew that
her shaft had been a straight one, and
went home exulting. After she had
line, Kate did what many another
f.!:l in her place would have done; she
.da hard cry. She did not tell her
'her. She could not have told any
c. \ She hated to think that even
Barbara Martin knew the man she
loved, in such an altered light, but the
mere fact of thinking of him softened
her and she hoped—ay, in the loyalty
of her heart she trusted —that Seth
had been misunderstood.
There snoiild be no misunderstand
ing between thpm. She determined to
tell him that evening, when he called,
all that she had heard. But tangled
through her trouble was a sore feeling
of disappointment that Seth could
have even carelessly trifled with an
other girl, and the feeling, too, of un
conscious jealously in the thought that
he had prolonged the farce after he
had began wooing of herself. It wa3
a feeling akin to resentment against
him, in justice to herself.
When he entered the parlor a few
hours later, he knew at once that
something was wrong and Kate did
not leave him long in doubt. She told
him the whole story, only withholding
the name of her informant. She kept
back her tears, too, and the effort
made her voice hard. She waited for
him to speak when she had finished,
and if they had been siting nearer to
each other would have touched his
hand.
I said that Seth Gray was proud, and
if ever a proud man was humiliated
that man was himself. No other proof
than her own voice could have made
him think that this young woman
could believe for a moment such a
base falsehood against his manhood.
The feeling of deep injury and indig
nation was uppermost in his mind.
Without a word he rose and turned
to go. At the door he paused an in
stant to look at her; then there was a
quick, firm step on the gravel walk,
the gate shut noisily, and he was gone.
From that night Kate never saw Seth
Gray again.
Never saw him again? How many
times she saw him in that doorway,
when the cat was purring contentedly
on the rug and the little earthenware
teapot was singing cheerfully on the
hearth, only Miss Kate knew. How
many times that last reproachful
glance looked in upon her during the
lonely nights of the long years that
folowed, when the whole bitter truth
was before her, only Miss Kate knew.
How utterly dreary the tidy little par
lor was at times during the long, long
hours, when the thought of that last
night came back to her; how often the
soft gray eyes wept bitterly when she
thought of the wrong that she had
done him, and that she could never
undo now, Miss Kate and only Miss
Kate knew.
And that was the story of her ro
mance. A late train, westbound, car
ried Seth Gray away that night. She
lived her life as best she could, and be
fore her little world the thorns in her
path were trodden unflinchingly.
Whenever a woman's hand was need
ed, there was Miss Kate; wherever
chatirable duties was the hardest, in
the coldest winters, among the worst
class of people; there was Miss Kate;
and although her purse was not a
large one it was open constantly.
I think that it was this constant do
ing of good, this never ceasing heal
ing of bodies, minds and hearts, that
kept the hard lines off her face, even
when the early gray strands glisten
ed in her brown hair.
If there was one weakness for which
she had no compassion, it was the
weakness of drunkenness. If there
were any medlcants that left her door
empty handed, they were those who
went there with the fumes of alcohol
on the breath. Truly the drunkard in
her eyes was detestable.
And so the summers and the win
ters pased until the time came when
Miss Kate had become an old maid be-,
yond dispute. New lives came into
the little town and old lives went out.
Girls in pinafores and small boys in
trousers grew to be women and men,
married and set up for themselves;
but to Miss Kate one year was but a
repetition of another and it sometimes
seemed to her that she was contin
ually going around in a circle that ha l
long since become monotonous.
If Mis Kate ever thought that site
might have made her life happier, she
guraded the thought well; and if the
smiling matrons ever occasioned the
slightest envy in her breast, they
could as easily have learned it from
the exterior of the neat cottage as
from its prime mistress.
One wintery March morning she
started out, with a basket on her arm,
to visit a sick family, and she noticed
a small crowd of men and boys a short
distance from her gate. The gibes
that reached her ears and the incoher
ent profanity that followed, told her
that a drunken man was the center of
tae group.
She knew that she would be obliged
to pass them, but with the determina
tion not to be deterad from her pur
pose by such an unworthy cause, she
held her head a trifle higher, involun
tarily drew her skirts closer about her.
and walked on. As she neared the
group she saw that the man was reel
ing: he was a wretched looking creat
ure, with unkempt beard and much
worn clothing. She gave him one look
and the basket dropped from her arm.
She walked straight up to him, laid
her hand on his frayed sleeve and led
him to her own gate, up the gravel
walk and into the old parlor, which
was looking very comfortable this cold
morning.
She cried over him and bathed his
face with cold water, and finally cook
eu him the daintiest breakfast imagin
able. Who would have thonglit it of
Miss Kate? And what would the peo
ple say? Little she cared for Mrs.
Grundy then! Notwithstanding her
tears, there was not a lighter heart in
the world that day than hers.
If there had been one bright spot in
her lonely life, it had been the hope of
this return; and a3 the years came
and went she had sometimes felt that
she was hoping against hope. Anl
now he had come back. What did it
matter how he had come? He had
come and that was enough.
At first Seth was dazed and Insen
sible to his suroundtngs, but when the
breakfast was brought into him he
ate like a hungry man. Miss Kate,
wise woman that she was, had boiled
some black coffee, so strong that its
very aroma might have had a soberiut:
Influence, and when Seth ha.l drank
two big cups of it, he began to look
around him. The little parlor had not
changed so very much In all those
years, and remembering how he had
landed in Grantly the night before, it
began to dawn upon him where he
really was. Then his eyes rested on
Miss Kate and he knew It all.
He buried his face in his hands ar.-l
sobbed. But the arms of a woman
were about the worn coat, and th>;
tired head was on her breast, and the
uncombed hair was anointed with her
tears.
Did they marry? What a question!
Of course they did! Seth Gray was
not a habitual drunkard. He reform
ed, and with retormation came health
and success. There never was a bet
ter husband, and the happiest wife i.i
Grantly is—Miss Kate. Waverley

FARMING IN JAPAN.
Crufto Implement* Still Unnd in Cultk
vat lug tlie Soil.
Twenty-seven hundred years before
Christ the Emperor of China intro
duced a system of agriculture into his
country. The soil had aHvays been
cultivated in an inferior way,
but this enterprising ruler saw
the need of other methods, and
made every effort to enforce their
general adoption. In order to
impress the matter upon the peas
ants ho plowed a small plot of land
and sowed it with the five most im
portant cereals. For this he was de
lied after his death and made god of
the crops. For more than 4,000 years
the rulers of the empire have followed
his example in the matter of plowing
and sowing.
When these new modes of cultiva
tion had been well established, and
every hillside and valley were smiling
ready for harvest, the islands of Japan
became known to China and they sent
their missionary priest over to this
country. They took with them the
entire civilization of China —their arts,
sciences, philosophy, industries, and
among the later their well-tested
methods of enriching the soil.
Tlie Japanese farmer had many dis
advantages that made the process of
better cultivation very difficult. The
entiro country is of volcanic forma
tion, and only one-twelfth of the land
is sufficiently flat to admit of farming.
Addod to this the soil itself is natu
rally of a very poor quality anrj re
quires special treatment both by ways
of enriching and irrigation. The great
est advantage of the farmer is the
fact that he has divided the land into
very small sections. Perhaps it
would be more accurate to say that
extreme poverty makes it impossible
for a farmer to possess more than a
good-sized potato patch. At any rate,
the smallness of the farms has its
advantages, and the toil of the farmer
of today is not to be mentioned when
compared with that of his ancestors,
who took the virgin soil in all its pov
erty and lavished no end of energy
and strength to bring it up to its pres
ent producing capacity. Yes, the
farmer of today has entered into a
rich heritage of hills already terraced
and plains finely irrigated, represent
ing the patient, steady toil of many
centuries.
The first turning of the soil on a
well-conducted plot is done by a cru le
plow harnessed to a bullock or horse,
usually the former. A crooked piece
of wood forms the central feature of
this ancient structure. To one end is
attached a sharp blade, and ,to tne
other a crossbeam, used for the double
purpose of tethering the. buHpck,
which is harnessed with indescribable
rope trappings. and also furnishing a
means by which the farmer may guido
the plow. After this sort of plowing
the soil is loosened by a long-handled
spade and the process of planting be
gins.
The crude manner of the prepara
tion of the soil is of little moment
when compared with the harvesting.
The sickle is scarcely larger thpi a
curved breadknife, and upon this the
farmer depends for gathering every
thing that is not uprooted.—Spring
field (Ohio) Farm and Fireside.
Fppert of the Carrier Pigeon.
Some years ago Griffit made soras
observations (recorded in the Field,
February 19, 1887,) in a closed gallery
on the speed atained by "blue-rock"
pigeons and English pheasants and
partridges. The two first mentioned
flew at the rate of only 32.8 miles per
hour, while the partridge made hut 28.4
miles, and these rates were all con
siderably in excess of what they made
in the open. The carrier pigeon is
rather a fast-flying bird, yet the aver
age speed is not very great. Thus, the
average made in eighteen matches
(The Field, January 22, 1887,) was
only 36 English miles an nour. al
though in two of these trials a speed
of about 55 miles was maintained for
four successive hours. In this coun
try the average racing speed is appar
ently about 35 miles an hour, although
a few exceptionally rapid birds have
made short distance flights at the rate
of at from 45 to 52 miles an hour. The
longest record flight of a carrier pig
eon was from Pensacola, Florida, to
Fall River, Mass., an air-line distance
of 1,183 miles, made in 15 1-2 days, or
only about 76 miles a day.
The Kxplorntlon of Kentucky.
The country now called Kentucky
was well known to the Indian traders,
many years before its settlement. It.
however, remained unexplored by the
Virginians till the year 1769, when
Colonel Daniel Boone and a few oth
ers, who conceived it to be an inter
esting object, undertook a journey for
that purpose. After a long, fatiguing
march over a mountain wilderness In
a westerly direction, they at length ar
rived upon its borders, and from the
top of an eminence "saw with pleasure
the beautiful level of Kentucke."
Paper Tapestries.
While fashion sanctions tapestry
papers as being excellent imitations of
the genuine antique tapestries, yet
they should be used with the greatest
care. As they absorb light ravenously
they should only be used in a very
light room.| They are a very undesir
able background for pictures also, but
where very few pictures are used, and
it is desired to tone down the light
ing of a room, they are quite useful
and attractive.
The Trifling; Annoyance*.
It is the little things of life oftei.
that prove the most trying. Bureau
drawers that stick are sometimes more
difficult to endure than a serious
trouble. It is worth while to stop anJ
remember that to rub the offending
edges with a cake of hard soap, a bil
of stove-blacking, or even a soft lead
pencil wil make life worth living
again. If the window of our poorly
built houses ratt.le at night aggravat
ingly in these spring winds, a few
slips of folded newspaper will stop
the noise and bring peace and slum

To Remove Ink Stains.
I had the misfortune to spill ink on
the front of a handsome double-faced
walking skirt. 1 sponged the spots im
mediately with cold water, then with
sweet milk, changing the milk and
the rag used in sponging as often as
they became discolered, and kept this
up until the rag showed no further
discoloration. As soon as the skirt
was dry I sponged it thoroughly with
gasoline, and not a vestige of the ink
remained. Soak the worst soiled
sponge in sweet milk and it will come
out sweet and clean. I usually rinse
mine afterward in water containing
a few drops of carbolic acid. —Goo J

£e»-l!nthing at Home,
There are few people who do not
find the daily sea bath an agreeable
tonic; yet tliere are multitudes who
hesitate to continue such baths in
their own homes after they have left
the seashore. The truth is that daily
bathing in any water is in itself re
freshing and agreeable, so long as the
individual is in health, and it is just
the tonic that weak, nervous women
need.
The best time to bathe is usually
early in the morning, and the best
temperature for the person in health
is about 70 degrees, or the tempera
ture of the room in which the bath is
taken. Such a morning dip should
not be continued longer than from
three to five minutes, and should be
instantly followed by brisk rubbing
with friction towels in order to put
the skin in a glow.
The best authorities seem to agree
that all the advantages that come
from a sea 'oath can be secured in
from five to eight minutes. It is also
desirable to keep up brisk exercise
in sea bathing in order to gain the
greatest benefit from it.
All these rules apply with double
force to a bath at home, which lacks
the tonic effect of salt water. A great
many persons always add a cup of
rock salt dissolved in a little warm
water to their daily bath. It tends to
prevent a chill. A little perfumed al
cohol is also used for the same reason.
A bag of bran and orris root, soaked
in the water, gives the bather the
faint, fresh fragrance of violets,
though it has no special hygenic value.
When one feels chilly after bathing
it is a sure indication that there has
been no reaction of the skin, and that
it is not safe to indulge in so cold a
bath. Such peoples hould take hatha
at night at a tepid temperature. And
if a morning bath is also desirable, it
should be at least slightly warmed, of
short duration and a brisk rubbing.
Baked Bananas —Remove the skin
from six medium bananas, lay in gran
ite baking pan, sprinkle with one
tablespoon of sugar and pour over one
cup of hot water. Bake in a good brisk
oven 20 minutes; serve with or with
out cream. Very wholesome.
Stuffed Prunes —Soak California
prunes in water until soft enough to
pit, then fill each prune with one tea
spoon powdered sugar, one-half tea
sponful chopped English walnuts and
one-half date. Shape the prunes. Heap
them in a glass dish and sprinkle with
powdered sugar.
Horseradish Sauce —Scrape clean
and grate one stick of horseradish.
Add one gill whipped cream, one des
sertspoon of made mustard, one des
sertspoon of powdered sugar, one tea
spoonful salt, a generous dash of pep
per and a tablespoon of vinegar. Mix
well and cook for five minutes. Serve
cold.
Kidney Omlette —Chop cold boiled
kidney quite fine; make an omlet with
three beaten eggs, three tablepsoon
fuls of milk, a pinch of salt and a little
pepper. Put one teaspoon of butter in
a flying pan; when melted turn in tho
mixture; let cook slowly until a crust
forms on the bottom- In the mean
time sprinkle over the omlet the
chopped kidney and a little chopped
parsley. Fold in half, turn out on a
hot platter and spread with butter and
garnish with parsley.
A Historic Flag.
A unique relic of Lieutenant GlU
more's captivity and rescue In the Phil
ippines was shown by General Eugene
Griffin at the recent dinner of the offi
cers of the First Iteglmentof Volunteer
Engineers, Spanish War Veterans.
This was the American Hag which was
made by the sailors in Lieutenant Glll
more's party out of patches and strips
of their clothing. The rescue party,
commanded by Colonel Hare, made a
brilliant march lasting over live weeks
and surmounted the most difficult ob
stacles in their progress. They
found Lieutenant Gillmore and his men
abandoned, without food or arms, by
the insurgents in the wildest part of
Luzon among the headhunters, where
their fate would have been only a
matter of a fuw hours If the rescue
party had not arrived so opportunely.
In spite of the fact that all of them
were half naked, they had sacrlllced
enough clothing to make up a fair sub
stitute for the regular Stars and
Stripes.—New York Times.
Slow Growth of London.
The population of the city of London
in the year 1580 has been estimated at
123,000 souls. In that year John Lyly
was the most fashionable English au
thor and Sir Philip Sidney the darling
of the court. Edmund Spenser had
just leaped to his immediate and last
ing popularity, and Shakespeare was
courting Anne Hathaway in the green
lanes of Warwickshire, not a line of his
dramas so much as thought of. It
was not until twenty-five years later,
when King James had come to the
throne, that the city came to number
200,000. London was then, as now, the
centre of the English-speaking world,
but that world was smaller in propor
tion than our single States of Pennsyl
vania or New York, and interests po
litical, social and literary were con
centrated in tlie metropolis to a de
gree far beyond the present even in
England.—Professor Felix E. Schell

and which about a month ago gave the I

bridges Wood, at a point where there
is an ancient limekiln, he perceived
the deer on the rocks above. It had
•hen sustained a broken leg, and know
ing that there was no possible chance
of its recovery he put the animal out
of its misery. It is supposed to have
had a fright, slipped on the rocks, and
injured itself. The deer was very fat;
it weighed fifty-seven pounds, and

The Life of Novels.
It is pleasant to learn that Mr. An
drew Carnegie believes that the novels
placed upon the rhelves of the libraries
be so liberally endows should have
weathered at least cne year of life.
It is true that even a twelvemonth
is no ultimate test of a book's vitality,
but the vast majority of novels do
not live even so long, and since there
began the recent despotism of "big
sellers" few of the "biggest" have sur
vived one-half that time. That the
most fabulous of kings and the most
impossible of colonials are read by
the million at their birth is no warrant
of their literary value, but that either
is uncalled for ere lie is a year old
proves pretty clearly that he was not
worth shelf room in the first place.—

Nurses* Experience.
Medical men say that a good nurse
in a difficult case is better than med
icine, but when wc can get a good
nurse and good medicine, the patient
stands a much better chance of re
covery. The few words of advice
given below by nurse Eliza King, are
well worthy the attention of all
readers:
" I have constantly used St. Jacobs Oil in
the various situations I have occupied as
nurse, and have invariably found it excellent
in all cases requiring outward application,
such as sprains, bruises, rheumatic affections,
neuralgia, etc. In cases of pleurisy it is an
excellent remedy—well rubbed in. I can
strongly recommend it after several years
use and experience. It should be in every
household."
Sister CAROLINA, St. Andrew's Hospital,
writes : " I have found St. Jacobs Oil a most
efficacious remedy in gout ; also in sprains and
bi"uises. Indeed, we cannot say :oo much
i in its and our doctor is ordering it
constantly."
