"Only a Farmer."
Quite an intrrenoted andi anxious group
had gathered in Mrs. Wilson's dressing
room one phlaeant morning in June. It '
connistled of NMWn. Wilson and her three I
unmarried dlau ,htimr, and the subject
under snch nnimetl I and anxious di.a
mlsion Was hI, w Antd where to open their 1
nanlil ".iniuIer eannpiaign. It had always "
been an interesting subject, and, to the t
maternal element, attended with con
siderable anxiety, but never nuch a mat
ter of perplexity, almost amouniting to
despair, as now.
The contents of the various wardrobes I
had been laid out and examined; silks 7
and muslins, cambries and lawns, suf
flicent, it would seem, for a dozen, and t
yet the two elder Misses Wilson de
clared, with tears in their eye., " that 1
they had nothing, absolutely nothing to
wear."
It is noteworthy with what eurprising
unanimity the two sisters agreed o: r
this point, who so reldom agreed on an
other. y
Mrs. Wilson looked with dismay upoi k
the finery spread out before her, afte
listening to the above asmertion. r
"I'm sure, my dears," she ventnreº i
s .ay, "* some of them are bhardly worn
and with a little alteration "
"Now, mamma I" iiiterrlteuld hells r
" why will you talk so ridiculonaly
When you know that there is not a tbins I
here but what is wretchedly onut ,,,
style I And as to altering anything, i
always gives me a pain to sew, and I'n

Of course, this settled that. It is o
little curious what a small amount of
work will "f(ag " a girl "all out," who I
can dance until the bseak of day with
slighltet ueonoverience.
"There's one thing certain," said
Lucy, the sect nd daughter, " we have
jot to have at least one new dress."
"I don't know where it's coming from,
then," responded Mrs. Wilson, sinking J
down wearily into a chair. " It was as
much as I could do to get your pa to
consent to your going at all. It was two
o'clock last night before lie gave in, and
then, I verily ,beliere, ;t wasv from pure
weariness and inatbiity to keep awake
L y longer."
Mrs. Wilson said this with the air of a
a woman determined to perform her
duty at all hazards, anl anxious to ob
credit for the same. But it seemed

regarderld eompllseently the effect of r
Belle's new dress, which her manage°- h
ment had seoureld.
" As though pa would board there for I
nothing," was Joie's indignant rejoin
i,,r , " when Uncle William has such a 1
hard time to get along." t
"Well, if your pa chooses to pay
when he needn't and it isn't expected of a
him, it's his own loss. For my part, I i
don't see what's the good of having reo
Ietions if you can't make use of them."
Mrs. Wilson certainly believed in i
making her relatives useful; carrying a
out that belief to its fullest extent,
whenever it was practicable, as some of
them knew to their coat. Even her love t
for her daughters partook of the selfish
ness of her intensely selfsh nature, her I'
chief anxiety being to get them "off her I
hands," in a manner that would he aIs
advantageous and reflect as mull credit t
en herself as posmsible.
But they wee. gone at last, sand Josie
wee at liberty to make her own simple e
lpre'l'urations, which did not take her s
long to complete. The father and n
laughter had a nice quiet day together. a
.Jse was going on the morrow, and as, I
lloting opposite him, pouring out his t
tea, she saw the hard line. soften in his t
careworn face, and how happy he was in
iher society, her heart reproached her s
for leaving him.
" I've halt a mind not to go, pa; it
seems too had to leave you here all by a
yourself."
But Mr. Wilson would not hear to I
tlhis.
"I insist on your going; you have
been working hard, and need a change.
My life would he much the same, any
way."
"'You may expect me in three weeks, s
pa," smiled ,Jodle from the car window,
the next morning. " You will want I
your little housekeeper by that time, I
know."
And Mr. Wilson went back to the cor
roding anxieties which had made him a,
old man bwfore his time, thanking (!od
for this hit of annshit.e, which iefl t
its glow in the hearth long after it had I
vanished.
There were only a few passengers foi
Iaybridge, a small country town in the
interior of the State, though there, were
lie unsal loungers upon he plltfirn_ of I
he hltation as ,lonie i't-Tle"l out. But
they soon scattered, leaving e.r to starl,
dlankly around for the cionveyance that
she supposed would be waiting for her. I
She walked clear around the station,
looking in ivory direction, but not i
vehicle was in sight, except a rough box
wagon with a hoard ecrons it, drawn by
a pair of spirited black horses, who a
stamped their feet and tossed their
heads as if impatient to be off. A man 1
stood besi',' the restive creatures, who
yet seemed to be under perfect control. I
"There, Jenny I Be easy, Katel' he I
said, patting the satin-smooth skin and
speaking very much as a mother would
to a child.
The haggagemaster was standing near
a pile of trunks and parcels.
"Is this your trunk, miss ?" he said,
as Josie aplro'ohed him.
"Yes. I was expecting friends to
meet me, but they are not here. There
must be some mistake."
" I know most of the people around
here. What might their names he."
" Crofton."
"Why, bless me, you've got off at
the wrong station. They live at North
laybridge, live miles beyond."
" When does the next train leave ? '
"To-m:rrow morning. '
Josie looked the dismay that she cer
tainly felt at this announcement.
"It's too hlad, I declare," said the
good-natured official, pitying Jonie's
evident distress. Then, as his eye fell
upon the owner of the team, who was
Ilooking toward them, he added: "' If
this ain't a stream of luck I Here's John
Manning, their neighbor. He can take
you along just as well as not. John,
here's a young woman that's got off at
the wrong station. She wanti to go to
Crofton's, I tell her that she can ride
with you."
The young man removed his straw
hat, revealing a forehead broad and full,
and whose whiteness contrasted strong.
ly with the healthful brown of the cheeks
below.
" I shall be very happy, it the young
lady has no objection to riding with a
Sfarmer, and in a farcer's wagon."
The admiration so clearly visible in
the honest blue eyes that met her own,
p made Josie's eheeks redden.
"It it will not be too much trouble."
, As the young man listened to those
e low, soft-spoken words, he felt that
nothing the speaker eoald ask would be
d any trouble at all. Springing to work
d he soon improvised quite a comfortable
f seat for Josie, by passing a rope from
o one stake to another, just baeek of the
board in front, throwing a thick, soft
n blanket over the whole.

Iore them swiftly along tile wih .i4
road, dotted here and there by fI aºI

and shrubbery. As soon as Josie 1 a

frankly and innocently expressed. h
" I)o you think you would like to 1 b
in the country ' he said, stealing
admiring glance at the glad young e.
"Above all things," responded J le.
" That is," she added, after a me t's
pause, "if papa could be here, I ii
wish he could be, just for a little w ile, I
he would enjoy it so. Papa was brought t
up on a farm, and it would seem like I
old times to him. I heard him may onoe a
that he wished he had never left it." t
"I had a strong desire, when a boy, a
to go to the city, where I could have a t
chance to get rich, and not haveto work a
so hard. lint I am an only son-an i
only child " -here the speaker's eyes I
sadhlened. " I promised father, just I
before lihe died, that I wouldn't leave v
the farm, and I don't know that I care c
to do so now." t
" I wouldn't, if I we ir in r or plac ,"
sail Josie, with a wise shake of her 1
pretty head. " It's dreadful hard times a
in the city. Everybody is groaning t
about them, which makes it disnal
enough. And as to working hard, 4(1
like to know who works harder than I
doies. It's ever so much nicer here." o
The honest young fellow, whose he4rt
was in his eyes, inwardly hoped thfi t
she would always think so. c
"There is where I live," he said,
alond, pointing to a house with a pias a
running around two sides, and whieb
looked very pleasant amid the green
verdure that snrronnd d it. .
Young Manning drew the reins at the r
gate, inside of which a pleasant-faced, a
silver-haired woman was standing.
" Here s the mail, mother," lie said, t
tohsing 1-).ni to her rtae p1º'yr-a 4
pamnhlets. " Been lonely any? I'tila
going to take this young lady to Mr. t
(,ra,fton's. My mother, M1tas Wilson." a
The young man took leave of Josie I
with a feeling at the heart such as he c
haul never expericune'l hIf,ire. I
" How pretty she is I" he thought; a
"and as good as pretty, I am sure."
" What an honest and pleasant face !
I wonder if I shall ever see him again !" c
This is what she thought.
J.ºaie did see him again and quite I
often. The Mannings and Croftonsf
were not only neighbors, but very inti
mate. Mary ('rofton had been strangely
attached to Mrs. Manning's only daugh. I
ter, who died the preoo+ding winter.
.`She spent a good deal of time at her
house, and Josic freqnently went with
her. Mary was never weary of praising
John; " hi was such a good son, and so
intelligenlt. steady and iudustrions."
John too got over his shyness with the
city girl, who took so kindly to country
ways that it seemed as if she had always
lived there. lie used to walk home
with her, Mary considerately lingering
by the gate to talk with his mother,
both well pleased at the turn affairs
were taking. Then there were rides
and walks, picnics and social gatherings,
at all of which John and Josie had t
fashion of getting off by themselves---j
fashion that every one seemed to honor
and nuderstand. And eo the happy
days went on, each day binding those
young, loving hearts more closely to
gether.
When Josie returned to the city,
which was two weeks later than she it
tended, she had a pleasant story to whis
per in her father's ear.
"If you love him and he is worthy of
you," he said in reply to the query with
which it ended.
Josie's quick ear detected the sadness
that underran these words.
" You know you promised tolive with
Ime when I was married, papa," she
whispered, laying her cheek close to
his. "And on a farm, too! Won't it
be delightful !"
Belle and Lucy returned home with
that conscious air of triumph and im
portance peculiar to "engaged young
ladies." Having attained the end and
aim of their existence, there was noth
ing further for them to hope or expect.
;From henceforth they were to repose
upon their laurels, floating down the
stream of life with no thought or care
,for anything but the present enjoy
ment.

quest.

But I suppose if you have your father's F

"Of course, you can't expect ns to

be thought of." to
"Certainly not," echoed Lncy, "bA
wife has to take the position of her i'
husband, which is something that you
had better think'of,"
Josie had thought of it, and very hap- n
py thoughts they were, too. al
The financial disasters of the three tl
years that followed made quite a change tI
in the surroundings of alil the above, ti
with the exception of Josie and her hum-. r
band. Out of the wreck of Mr. Wilson's I
businees nothing was left but the honor
and integrity, which shone all the more
brightly from the temporary gloom that 1
shrouded him. His wife took their al- Ii
tered fortunes very hard, fairly fretting "
and worrying herself into the grave,
where she was laid a few months after. s
Penniless and unfitted for anything e
higher, the husbands of Belle and Lucy a
were glad to acespt positions, one as V
conductor on a city ear, the other h
third-rate clerkship.
Josie does not see much of her sisters,
but many a barrel of apples and crock I1
of butter find their way to them from r
the Manning farm. Almost every pleas- a
ant afternoon a gray-haired, placid- a
looking old man can be seen on the n
western pisss of the farmhouse, fre- r,
quently with a grandchild on either Ii
knee. It is Mr. Wilson, who often is

By the pnblic l e *bttseluh
anuall report of e ti6n ock yard
and Transit compiy, of Chicago, a
;grent deal of valuable information is
gained in the way of statistics about t
what has been doc.e in live stock the a
past year in the greatest distribnting
point in the West. For the year ending
January 1, 1879, the receipts by all the
different roads leading into that city
were as follows : Cattle, 1,083.068 head
against 1,033,151 head the previous
year; sheep, 310,420 head, against 310,
240 head the previonus year ; hogs, 6,389,
654 head against 4,025,970 head the year
previous. The shipments were : 699,108
cattle, 156,727 sheep, and 1,266,906
hogs. No'withstanding the roeipts
hava been larger thans daring any one
year in the history of the trade, the total
valuation of tlue stock is only $7,077,779
more than last year, while it is $11,432,
(W3 less taun in 1875, when the total
valuation was $117,533,942. This cer
tainly shows a great reduction in the
price of all kinds of meats, not only in
the West, but all over the country. In
New York, f. r instance, the average price
of beeves for the year 1878 was 1 ..
lower than in 1877, while hogs were
lower than ever before known.

number of postage stamps issued haa

n of stamps has increased, on the average,
ab1 hout 100,000 a day, or upward of 30,
000,000 a year. In the fiscal year ended
r June 30th last, the number of stamps
samounted tb 744 071,518, representing
a $20,562,4~63. During the fifteen years
e in which stamped envelopes have been
