We m used to be a t ean, uncharitable set, aus women of I the Bend. and I'm not saying that I I was a whit better than the rest; but 1 - do think that there has been a change for the better since sweet Olive North I came among us. It was a new place o sad times hard, and we couldn't afford all the necessaries of life, much less its I luxuries, and hard work and privation e made us bitter and Ill-tempered. When I tell you that only two families in all e the neighborhood were able to take a e paper, and books were a searce as I "ben'ateeth" amongus, you may reckon r that intelligence and refinement were at a low ebb; but, la! it would not have been safe for anyone to have told a Bender that be r -sbe was not as good or as smart as the next one, and if there was one thing that we disliked more - tein our own hardships and privations it was the person who had not suffered in like kind and measure. When Judge North came among us with his old maid sister and motherless daughter, It did not take us long to see that they were' different from the rest of an, ead 'ilereut in a way that we vessatedt. If they had been poorer or Bmaw ignorant than ourselves we could have welcomed them with open arms, ea Bliss North, though not in the leant saughty, was dignifed and intellectual loohing, and Olive--well. she wans tret tit,- sams ter sad sweeter than any ether girl in the place. and we couldn't *e eaeiag it, and hated her accord' * I"l he judge's folks bad been extraw - g' a Y a k dessa ow haughty i. mannera, ' l t of the kind, there would isome exeass for our feelings hhe adb they 'er. plain aad mete. i tho u*Pndsy, and bi mahe a dsinbe them srh tarabmS I saw Olie tedbe .

"The stuck up things 1 'spose she ° thinks she'll be a missionary to us e heathens," said Mrs. Ivens. "My young uns may live an' die in ignorance 'fore I'll send 'em to acharity school kept by it her,"said Mrs. Godsey. It would take too tong to tell all the h bateful things we did say, but, at last e some of us began to come to our.senses, myself for one, notthat I was a bit bet r' ter than the rest, but I did want Dan'l and Sary, my boy and girl, to be learn ing something: so at last we concluded re that we reckoned we could stand it if the could, and sent her word she might _ begin. If Qlive cohld' bave heard all-the ugly' iings we said she might have quit in despair, seeing she did not get q even thankee for her work, but she a kept right on, and the children were n' getting to like her in spite of all they heard said against her, and were get- u. e ting so they'd speak up and take her part, but none of us older ones. even yet, were friendly with the Norths. s ir Some. of us had neighbored a little o with them, but we took pains to let ar them know that we thought ourselves is as good as they, and made ourselves very foolish and disagreeable. lii 'p About that time, word got out that ,k Olive was taking a fiddle to the school- m house and playing while the children ° made motionp to it. What a storm it k raised: k "Only to think that she's learnin' the be precious innocents to dance, when we o thought 'em a studyin' of their books." said Mrs. Ivens, with a tremor in her y' . voice "I allus knowed som'thin' would t c some out. Such ain't to be trusted. a-lookin' as if butter wouldn't melt in " their mouths," said 'Mrs. Hatch. When we sifted the thing it came 0 out that it wasn't a fiddle that Olive SH had in school, but something that t se looked like one. Mine said she thumped it with her tL fingers, and Ike Ivens said site clawed b it like a cat: but, anyway. it was h something, and something had to be di :- done, so we made it up that, without s< saying anything to anybody, we'd meet f n and go in a squad to the door of the ti ne schoolhouse-it was a little old desert- ti ed country storehouse that Olive and d, Fr her pa had fixed up at their own ex- a pense-we'd go in a squad to the door. d, just after the children had been called h m' in, having waited somewhere near. and h m' just when Olive got into the midst of ti her demoralizing performance we'd he rush in and ask if that was the way to keep school. There was a little sort of e porch room in front, and we all tip-toed a into that and stood nudging each other, tl for, now we'd got there, no one wanted to be the first to break in, though we t could hear the music going, a clear. k sweet young voice leading some child- 1i ish song, the little ones joining In, a while they all kept a sort of time witl, n their hands and bodies. That much I saw through a crack in the door before e Mrs. Ivens nearly mashed my foot ti crowding me over to take my place. ' to Two or three of the stoutest got their 0 at eyes to the cracks, and the rest had to i in be content with hearing: but every l as word came plain as truth to where we r er were standing. I'll say here that no d ye prima donner ever had a sweetei voice 'I ye than Olive's, and when they had tin he ished the little ca:isthenic piece --I ,w think that's what they called it-she n e struck up "Nearer My God to Thee." F a all the young ones joining in, and she of liaying the accompaniment on the d I guitar, for we learned later that that 1 was the name of the instrument that ge had created such an excitement, and to I th my dying day I don't expect to hear ce anything sound sweeter. t ird "Jest listen at Tad!" whispered Mrs. Its Hatch. "I'd no idea the little feller on could sing so. I'll have to tell his pap." Cl en Before the hymn was finished I felt all my eyes getting moist, and I saw ser a eral others getting the same way. We as forgot all about the object of our visit, on and only thought of listening to the re music; and once Melindy Peters nearly we spoiled everything by joining in, but i Sa Lucy Ivens saw her opening her mouth .d and chacked her under the chin. ,re When the hymn was finished, what re was our surprise to hear the same sweet ta voice leading in prayer, and your might ed not believe ILt, but a more beautiful us pryer never heard.

No. we did not have the courage - for that, so each one had to think of I little break ways for herself. As for me, I concluded I'd take bliss North a 1 jar of my cherries, being some of our a first crop, and about the first in the neighlbrhooda I found Mliss North knitting on a little red woolen mitten. I She seemed pleased to see me and glad of the cherries, then, said she: "I hope you'll excuse me for going on with my knitting, as I am very anxious to finish this pair this evening." '"That will be a little small for Olive, won't it?" I asked. "Oh, dear." said she, "it's not for Olive: it's for little Tim Skiver. Olive says he comes crying with cold every morning, but be is so fond of school that he won't give it up." This was the woman we'd accused of being proud and stuck up, spending her time knitting mittens for a little dirty-faced chap no he could come to school, where her niece could teach him for nothing. If they were stuck up they were trying to raise the lowest to their level, instead of trying to pull down them that seemed a bit higher. as some of us had been so anxious to do. I tell you, I went out of that house feeling my littleness as I never ha;u before, resolving to be more lik., them I'd picked so many flaws in. Not long after that the scarlet fever broke out, and we no longer wanted atn excuse to make much of Olive and her aunt, for angels could not be kinder than they were. They went every* where and helped everyone, and what we'd have done without them I don'l know. It was wonderful how the little ones clung to Olive. Not a mother among us could get them to take the medicine as she could, and often hlr singing would quiet them when nothir R else would. Many a darling owed its life as much to her as to the doctor. There were only three deaths in all. one of them poor little Tim Skiver. lie died with his red mittens on, and we buried him in them. Those were ter rible times, and but for our Olive I don't know what we should have done. There's not'a mother in the Bend but would almost give her life for her. That was all a year ago. We have a new schoolhouse now and Olive is paid for teaching it. We are not able to pay her much, but refused to let her do it longer for nothing. for the Norths are not rich, more than some of the rest of us. Olive and Miss North have given us older ones some useful hints. too. in regard to cutting and fitting and the choice of colors and materials, so we find that the poorest may have something of grace and beauty in dress. We have an organ in our t church. too, not a grand pipe one, but Olive can get mnsi. out of it, and my Sary has learned to pick the guitar. and we have that. too. so if you'll be at church in the morning I'll promise you some as good music as you'll meet with in a two days' journey.-Mrs. Harriet A. Chute, in Good Housekeeping. t AN UNMITIGATED PEST. The Man W'ho Pertstently aNollelt One tfor a l)me. 1 It'" a hard matter to refuse a man the loan of a dime, isn't it, andti yet there is such an army of chronic dime borrowers lurking about the highways and byways that if one gives heed to ,ut a small percentage of them tlhe first be knows he is out of pocket to the extent of a dollar or more. These dime borrowers are an unmitigated nuisance. The sum they ask of you is paltry to be sure, but if it be true that "many a mickle makes a muckle" it is equally true that ten dimes make a dollar, and that is more money than most of as ean afford to throw away on a set of blatherskite dead beats. Quite a good many of these chronic dime her rowers are men who have seen better days, and who have finally drifted f down very near the ditch by reason of their own weakness. If not vices. Work they will not, and so they lie in wait for busy men who have no time to parley with them. and who contend that it is E cheaper to give them a dime than it is to argue the matter with them. Then, y again, there is another reason why it d ;sn't pleasant to remain long in cnlose s proximity to hese borrowing friends- d they drink three-cent beer, they eat , enions and they chew tobacco, and if a that tia't a eombination for you, why I I don't kuow what I am talking about. i But what pains me more than giving a up a dime to one of these sealawaa is I the prelimiahry palaver that they feel ia In duty boamd to bore you with' before at they "atrike" you for the nimble tea. cenmt pice.

(ClAesp JforresL) We sometimes see in the papers a thrill Slg mooount of where a perfectly ans per* son has been confined In an asylum. Think a ot it, readerl How long would you retat I your senses if you were confined with a number of lunatics, night and day, and yet a think of the physiclans in charge of these r patients who are compelled, day by day and - year by year, to live among them. What I wonderful opportunities they have for studying characteristics and vagaries; what a wonderful chance for learning the m;serieos of life and how best to overcome them. We are brought to these reflections by a conversation lately had with Dr. J. C. Spray, of 163 State Street, Chicago. For nearly ten years Doctor Spray was in -charge of the Jefferson, now Dunning, In a stitute, at Duannng, Ill. This tremendous Institution contained about twelve hundred t patients in the Insane Department, and ff e teen hundred in the infirmary. Amo -R this large number of persons there were a vast number of physical ailments. Dr. Spray, speaking about it, said: "I traced the great cause for most of the mental and indeed physical disorders very carefully, and while some authorities make l an estimate that seventy-five per cent. of I the people In the United States are afmlcted 5. with some form of kidney disease, I do not y think that the rate is so high, taking all r ages into consideration. Before middle life it is less than seventy-five per cent. but after middle life it is, I should think, fully that percentage." e "This is something terrible, Doctor. Few X' people can certainly be aware that so large 1. a percentage exists !" i, The Doctor thought a moment and then said: "It is a fact not generally recognized that where a person has diseased kidneys and the organs fail to perform their fune tioans of removing the waste and the im r purities from the system, it soon producee melancholia As a result our asylums are ad filled to overflowing, while if the people ig would strike at the root of the matter and at see that their kidneys were in good order, 10 there would be fewer patients in the asy lums. I have noticed that a largo portion of all paresils cases had kidney difficulties." :e "What have you found, Doctor, to be the ul standard and most reliable remedy in such t cases " p. Dr Spray spoke with great confidence. o He said: "Having so many cases to treat, le I tried various remedies, and after a long ad and exhaustive trial, finally decided that Warner's Safe Cure was the best, most ef fective and most reliable remedy. I found it specially reliable in cases of incipient es Bright's disease. It is certain to stop it, and even in the advanced conditions it al d- lays the disease, and to my surprise at first, et cured many cases. Before structural id changes set in, it is certain to cure, if prop erly administered." O "Has your experience while atthe asylum, h Doctor, been confirmed in your general re practice since leaving it !" "Yes. I have occasion to use the Safe lv Cure almost daily. Whenever I find traces K. of albumen in the urine of a patient. I pre th scribe the Safe L'urn, and in nearly every instance where I noticee indications of nerv. r; ous troubles, I analyze t he urine, and almost a invariably find that it is caused by some af fection of the kidneys. I now have a pe ttent to whom I am giving the Safe Care, and find that it is having t he desired effect. he Some time ago a gentleman came to me, IT. who had been examined for life insurance, and traces of albumen were found. I ad. vised the use of the Safe Cure, and he passed the examination without difficulty et after having used it" t "I understand, then, Doctor, that you at 'r" tribute a large percenta-e of the ills of life h- to some disease of the kidneys, and that you a Iha-o found the remedy of which you speak the frost effective in snch case-s." th "Yes. l have no hesitation in saying that Wrner's Safe Cure has my unqualified en. dorsement. I use it constantly, and would els not do so unless I thought it possessedcura tive qualities " The high standing, wide experience and great success of Dr. Spray make his words exceedingly impressive. Their sincerity cannot be questioned, and their truthful. Sness is absolute. Impressed with this fact, on and realizing the importance of the same, I its have transcribed his words In full and give ed them herewith nd I - -- - go A Child Enjoys The pleasant flavor, gentleaction and sooth ing effect of Syrup of Figs. when in need of a laxative, and if the father or mother be costive or bilious, the most gratifying re rt sluits follow it.s use: so that It is the best si- family remedy known and every family or should have a bottle. tes "GET off the earth I" as the cyclone said me to the barn. in Ir von are troubled with malaria take Beecham's Pills.
