tin meadow, a svmplionv of olire and
preeD in the late fall. Here and there
hy a sunken lw- l.lcr stood soldierly
penrod, or Iterry bushes clothed no
in scarlet and po!d. At intervals in the
lony slope stood solitary tree, where
fluttering, hrittlc leaves fell In Hie pen

membered well the haymakers in the
shade, and the jnjj with pinker water
she made for the men was kept there
to He coot.
She seemed, as she sat there, to re
member eecrythinff. The house was
all right, she was sure -f that; the key
was tinder the kitchen doormat, the
was out in the store and the cat
loeked in the barn.
She held her work-hardened palm to
her side, panting a little, for it was a
(rood bit of a walk across the meadow,
and she was eijfhty years old on her
last birthday. The cows feeding looked
homelike and pleasant.
"tiood-by. critters," she saiil, aloud;
"many's the time l're druv'ye home

: With a farewell plance she went on
again, smoothing as she walked the
scattered locks of gray hair falling un
der the pumpkin hood, and keeping her
scant black gown out of reach of briers.
Across another field, then on through a
leafy lane where the wood was hauled
in winter, there through a gap in a
stump fence, with its great, branching
arms like a petrified octopus, to the
dnsty highroad.
Not a soul in sight in the coming twi
light. John, the children and the
scolding wife who made her so unhap
py, would not he home for an hour yet.
for it was a long drive to East M ills.
Down the steep hill went the brave
little figure, followed by an odd shadow
of itself in the waning light, and by
tiny stones that rolled mi swiftly they
passed her often, and made her look be
hind with a start to see if a pursuer
was coming.
"They'd put me in an asylum, snre,"
she murmured wildly, as she trudged
along.
At the foot of the hill she sat down
upon an old log and waited for the
train. Across the road, guarded by a
big sign: "Look out for the engine,"
ran two parallel iron rails, that were to
be her road when the big monster
should come panting around the curve.
At last the dull rumble sounded, a
shrill whistle, and she hurried to the
track, waving her shawl to signal.
This, in the conductor's vernacular,
was a cross-roads station, where he
was used to watch for people waving
articles frantically. 1 he train stopped
and this passenger was helped aboard.
He noticed she was a bright-eyed old
lady, very neat and precise.
"How fur?" he asked.
"Bostin."
"Git there in the mornin," he said,
standing waiting for the money, as she
opened a queer little reticule where.

HOW WOMEN SPOIL IT.
Votir Brilliant nrratlon Marrrd hr
Their I'm inn!.
One of the meanest of conversational
tricks is a favorite one with women. A
fellow hassomcthing real nice and clever
to say; he. is rounding up nicely to it,
when some chit of a. woman takes a
gasp and says: "Oh. yes" I know what
yon mean." and. by jingo, says it. Of
course she gets all the credit. I do hate
a woman like that. She is the kind of
woman who says: "Ah. yes!" and then
goes off into a poetic illustration of the
fact you have- annonnced something
nice and dreamy that she never could
have said by herself. I hate that sort
of woman, making herself seem so
clever and bright and poetic and all
that from Your brains.
She laughs before yon have cot your
funny story out, and says: "Yes, isn't
it funny? It makes it so easv for yon
to go on, that does. Actually, some
times she will finish it for you. That is
the kind of woman I hate, too. She is
always coming in with a "Yes, but,"
and npsetting what yon have said, or
else hauling out another side of it that
yu didn't mean to have broutrht nn.
hate women like that. I sav let wom
en learn to cook and sew frills, not
talk like idiots.
There is another woman I must not
forget to mention. She has genius for
just one thing. She will dislocate any
conversation by coming in with some
insane, irrelevant speech that leaves
yousprawling. Your ideas will be sail
ing beautifully and she will make a re
mark that settles a dead calm. Every
body will be with you, and in she will
put her word, and the whole thing is
jfoae to pieces. Oh, I hate women likf

11 KIDNEY CURE.
A summer cold is a disagreeable
thing. It comes from exposure to the
dews of evening, or to the night air,
and is almost always followed by an
attack of malaria or by cholera mor
bus. When you feel chilly, which is
the first ivmptom, take a dose of
REID'S GERMAN COUGH AND
KIDNEY CUKE. This great remedy
is the best thing for throat complaint
and obstinate maladies that arise from
a cold, as asthma, catarrh- and bron
chitis. All of these tugin with a cold
that is neglected until" it becomes a
settled disease. REID'S GERMAN
COUGH AND KIDNEY CURE con
tains no poison and it can be taken
freely and given to children without
danger. It is a never failing remedy
for croup and will relieve the worst
case instantly. Ask your druggist for
it and do not let him give you any
thing else. Small bottles 25 cents,
large ones 50 cents.
