And he plunged in the foaming main
And little John Bottlejohn, prettle John Bottlejohn,
Never was seen again.

The Lost Cream Cup.
Five o'clock in the afternoon, and sup
per lime in the country.
Grandma Benedict had been bustling
about all day, performing the various
duties jthat fall to the housekeeper's
share 'and to-day had brought more
Mian the usual amount of work, for was
it not strawberry time and criming,
preserving, and making jelly must be
attended to in its season. Her grand
daughter Minnie was spending the sum
mer vacation with her grandparent*, and
in her opinion their was never such a de
lightful place as theirs. This afternoon
she had been helping in her way. She
had picked strawberries,, aud spoiled
more than she picked by trampling on
the vines she bad helped to hull them,
but left BO many hulls on that grandma
had to look them over after her she
must tiste of the preserves and jelly, to
see if they were sweet enough and
cooked enough and all with the idea
that she was helping so much! "Don't
you wish you had a Kttle grl like me to
live with you all tho timo and help yon
like this, grandma?"
At last all was done, and cans and cups
of the rich fruit stood in array upon the
pantry shelf, and grandma surveyed the
results of her labor with commendable
pride.
"But see, Minnie, it is nearly supper
time, and grandpa and Uncle David will
be hungry—they are having now, and
that is such hard work for them—so I
will put on tho tea-kettle and you may
help me set the table.*'
And what a tempting supper—nice
new bread, a golden globe of butter,
stamped with an oak leaf and acorn8
(which always seemed to Minnie the
perfection of art), strawberries, honey
for Minnie's sweet tootn, chcese, cold
meat, rnd good, generous doughnuts—
everytl, ng to tempt tho appetite of the
hungry men.
Now, Minnie, iu everything oil the
table?"
No, mara where's the eream
Grandpa would not drink his tea if
he could not have cream in it" So
grandma goes to the cellar and gets the
creom, pnts the cream-cup on the table,
puts the tea to steep, and then, calling
Minnie, they go out, and grandma blojvs
the horn to call the men to supper.
Minnie runs to meet them, and, taking
Uncle David's hand, runs jumping along
by bis side, telling him how much sho
has helped to-day.
It agrees with yon, too, little puss
your cheeks look as rosy as can be
your mamma wilt hardly know you when
you go home. Better stay with us all
the time ,and be our little girl. But
here we are, mother, as hungry as bears."
Soon they sit down to the table* After
grandpa has asked God's blessing upon
them, grandma pourrf out the tea, telling
father," as she calls him, how busy she
has been all day, and how much work
she has done.
Well, mother, you have been so busy
talking, you have not given me any cream
in my tea."
"Why! didn't I WeIt, I declare,
what has become of my cream-cup
Ton have been so bnsy you forgot
to put it on the table."
No, I am sure I put it on but I
will go and look for it.".
So she looked in the pantiy, but it was
not there then she went to the cellar,
and there was the pan of milk off
which the cream had been taken, but no
cream-cup was to be found. She camo
back lb the table saying, I never saw
anything so strange. What cau have
become of it? Minnie, didn't you see
me put it on the table
Yes, I am sure I did."
Well, mother, don't worry about it
I can take my cream out of any Had of
a cop. Ton will find it in some place
where you put it down. You and I are
growing old and forgetful. Now, to-day
I was sure I carried the whetstone down
into, the field with me, but David said 1
left it in the barn, and sure enough I
did."
That evening, when she had strained
the milk, grandma asked Minnie to call
kitty and give her her supper. This
wasagreat pleasure to Minnie, and soon
her voice was heard calling, "Kitty!"
"Kitty!" first at the kitohen door, then
around the house, and then in the
garden. Soon she came in and said,
Grandma, I have looked everywhere,
and called,,
but cannot find her." "Well,
put' down the Saucer of milk, and she
will oome by and by." Uncle David
faid, She is off after a mouse. You'll
fl id her all right in the morning but it
is my little girl's bedtime, and she must
be off, so as to be up to breakfast in sea
son."
The next morning Minnie found the
saucer of milk ji«t a? sbo had left it the
night before.
After breakfast and prayers grandpa
and Ui clo David went off to the field,
and loft grandma and Minnie alone
again—grandma utill puzzling over her
missing cream-cup, and Minnie over the
disappearance of kitty.
So passed away the forenoon, and
again it was almost supper time. Down
in the field grandpa and Unole David
were hard at work. Grandpa was driv
ing the horses before the mower, when
he suddenly.stopped and said David,
what kind of an animal is that over
there!"
4 4
Where I don't see anything.":
44
There, don't you see it jump J"
44
Yes, it is funny enough. Looks as
though it was all heal. I believe I will
go and see what it is." As soon as he
came up to it, grandpa heard him laugh
long and loud, and wondered if the boy
had grown crazy. And what do yon
suppose he was laughing at? Why,
kitty was the thief she had run off with
the cream-cup on her head, hid tried to
steal the cream, and got more than sho
bargained for—for, getting her head into
the cup, she could not get it out .again.
So oil she ran, and had become so be
wildered that she wandered away from
the house. I should-not dare to tell you
how far she had traveled, and in her un
vailing efforts to get the cup off she had
worn the fur from her neck and had
broken a hole in the side of the cup, and
taking it all together she was as tired,
hungry, and miserable a kitten as you
ever saw. Uncle Davia put the cream
cup into his pocket, and, taking kitty/n
his arms, went back to grandpa, who
said,
41
What will mother say? We
shall have to take back what we have
said about her growing forgetful." Just
then they heard the supper-hour. As
they neared the house Minnie came
running out to meet them.
Why, whore did you find my kit
ten Why, poor kitty! What's the
matter with her neck? How weak she
is! Was sho dewn iu the field So
many questions that there was no time
to answer them. On reaching tho
house grandpa siid
44
Mother, I have brought you some
thing from tho field."
44
What is it—a now plant
"No, look at it.". When shesawiier

been trying to play off some joke on

No, we have not And here Uncle
David told how he had found the strange
headed animal bounding through the
tall grass, which proved to bo the lost
kitty with the cream-cup on her head.
44
She must have jumped on the table
when I went to blow the horn for supper
—the troublesome cat She ought to. be
prnished, though I never knew her to
do Bnch a tivng before."
44
Now, grandma, I think she has been
punished enough. Just see her poor
neck! She will never do so again. Will

A Boric That Knew it tens Sunday.
I want to tell you atrue
horse story.
Tho horso was raised on Long Island
by my father, who used her for many
years—on week days for /arm-work, and
on Sundays to take the family to meet
ing. She was not a beauty, but sho was
strong and trusty. She always went by
the name of
4 4
Miss Finley." When the
faithful creature had grown old in long
servic, father took her, onn summer
morning, across the bay to Robin's
Island, that lay over half a mile off, aud
left her there to rest, and to crop the
good grass at will. In other words, she
was placed on the
44
retired veteran list,"
with all tho honors. This was on a
Monday. Well, all that week the old
iiiiU'o stayed theie and enjoyed herself to
her heart's content^ but when Sunday
camo, and the first ringing of the church
bell began, the knowing animal pricked
up her ears and listened. Then she
trotted along the sand-bar as far as it
went, and, without a moment's hesitation,
plunged into the water, swam over to
the main land, and went straight to the
stable. She knew it was Sunday, and
that she should be needed to tako the
family to meeting! Dear old Miss Fin
ley But the hardest part of it was that
father, not thinking of ever using h«r
again, had already purchased a new
horse. Miss Finley found her own
empty stall But something was wrong.
All was silent. There was no familiar
voice no familiar touch, and the har
ness disl not fall clanking about her as
usual. Could it be that the folks were
not going to meeting, after all No one
kuows what Miss Finley thought or how
she felt, when, after a while, the new
horse came trotting briskly homo with
the family. But you may believo sho
was patted and praised when we fonnd
her. Wcgave her water called her. a
good old girl hugged her neck pulled
handfuls of frosh clover for her gave
her lumps of sugar, and did all we could
to ,do her honor. All agreed that
nothing was too good for the faithful old
horse who knew it was Sunday. Yours

CHARLES I.
UU Emeruiitn ami Burial.
In January, King Charles was taken
to London, and there was tried and be
headed, as you know. You and I have
not tho time to inquire (and perhaps,
betwotm ourselves, are not clever ecough
to decide) how far this could hjive been
helped, or what excuse they had who
did it. The only thing we can be sure
of was, that Charles was not a bad man,
nor Cromwell an ambitions hypocrite,
though I do not think the one was a
martyr, nor the other a spotless peer.
It waa on the 30th of January, 1619,
that this terrible event took place, and,
after that, occurred tho saddest scene
that old Windsor ever saw. Four of the
King's faithful servants (and he ha^
faithful servants all through his career),
the
44
Duke of Richmond, the Marquis
of Hertford, and the Earls of Southamp
ton and Lindsay," requested leave to
bury him, and carried the body back to
the castle. Tbey took with them that
Bishop Juxon, who attended the King
on the scaffold, to read the service over
him now. But the Governor of the
Castle, who was a certain Col. Whiteh
ead, would not allow the burial service.
He told them that41 the common prayer
book had been put down, and he would
not suffer it to be used in that garrison
when he commanded." You will
see from this that persecution
was not all on one side, but
that whoever was uppermost in these
violent times did his best to crush his
neighbor. You could not fancy any
thing more heartless than the Puritan's
refusal to allow these heart-broken men
to say holy prayers over their king's and
their friend's grave—except, indeed, th^
refusal of that same king to let these Pu
ritans live along with him in the native
England which had room for them all.
When the faithful lords found it impos
sible to change this decision, they went
sadly to St. George's find a place to
lay him, but found the chapel so bare,
so naked, so altered, that it was only
with hard ado that they found a vault in
thefhiddle of what 'had once been the
choir, where they could lay the king.
Here they found a little space for King
Charles, close by the great leaden coffin
where Henry VIII. lay peacefully, un
witting who yjps coming. The Duke of
Bichmond marked out roughly upon
44
44
a
scarfe of lead the letters of his name
and»the date. Then, all in science, at
3 o'clock in the January afternoon, when
it was no more than twilight in the cold
and.naked chapel, they carried tfie coffin,
then covered with a black pall, of which
the foure lords" carried the corners,
with a forlorn attempt at state.
As they came down the
Castle hill toward the
ohapel with their burden, it began sud
denly to snow, and.the snow fell so
thickly and fast that soon
44
the black
pall was all white." Was there ever a
more mournful sight? In the dim*
chapel that snow-covered coffin would
be the one spot of wintry lightness.
The Bishop of London stood weeping
by to tender that his service, which
might not be accepted." Thus they
laid him in the dark vault to molder
with the other royal bones, dropping
the whiteness of the snow-covered pall
(an emblem, they said, of his innocence)
into the black gulf with him—not a
word said, not a prayer except in their
hearts, the Puritan Governor of the cattle
standing by to sec his orders executed.
When all was over, he locked up the
empty echoing chapel and took the keys
away. Windsor has seen weeping and
sorrow like ei exy other old bouse where
men for generations havo lived and died,
and more than most, for in the old days
suffering and sorrow were apt to follow
in the paths of kings but never has our
venerable castle seen so mclaneholy a
sight.
If the story of the Stuarts had been a
drama, a great tragedy such as Shak
speve could have made, no doubt it

SERVIA.
Servia, the Slavic principality now en
gaged in one of its periodical struggles
with the Ottoman Empire, contains an
area of 21,000 square miles, lying be
tween Austria, Wttflachia, Bulgaria, and
Be Willi. Tho country ij mountainous,
and by far the greater part is covered
with dense forests. The laiid which is
under cultivation is extremely/fertile,
and yields bountiful harvests of the
cereals, of hemp and tobacco, and of
various fruits, particularly of plums
and grapes. The climate is temperate
and salubrious, but, in the elevated
plateaus, is somewhat cool. Oak is the
chief wood in the forests, yet chestnut
and fruit trees of various sorts abound.
In some places large traots aro covered
with wild pear trees. The plum crop is
one of the most important resources of
the country, many of tho poasants de
pending upon it for their subsistence.
The fruit is dried in the form of prunes,
by a-process which is known only to this
people and to the Bosnians.
Almost one-half of tho revenue de
rived from tho exports of Servia is
gained by the traffic in pigs. It is esti
mated that in ono year 472,700 of these
animals ware sent out of the country.
Their flesh is not usod. as an artide of
food, but they aro melted into fat
Servia is rich in mineral products, and
its mines of iron and copper aro a prolific
source of wealth.
The religion of tho Servians is that of
tho Greek Church, but thoy are'inde
pendent of the Patriarch of ConstJiti
nople. They were converted to
Christianity about the middle of tho
ninth century. The oountry was placed
under trihute by the Turks toward the
ctose of the fourteenth centar£, and in
the middle of the fifteenth century was
completely subjugated by Sultan
Mahmoud. During the last 150 years
insurrections have frequently occurred
in Servia, which, thouglt successful for
a time, have provoked a barbarous retal
iation from its foreign masters. In 1815,
Milosch, the leader of a triumphant re
bellion, was chosen Prince of Servia,
and tho election was sanctioned by a
hatti-sherif of the Saltan. He was suc
ceeded in 1860 by $s sp|ij and by Milan

LONGEVITY Of BJtAIN-WOBICE RS
That great thinkers and hard brain
workers are long-lived is asserted, with
a considerable array of facts, in a vol
ume by Dr. Beard. He presents a list
of some 500 of the most eminent names
in history, including a number like Pas
cal, Mozart, Keato, and others, who died
young, and finds the average age of the
500 to have been over 64 years. As thin
is far beyond the average age of farmers,
mechanics and business men, he con
cludes that the wear and tear of brain
work is not so exhausting as is com
monly supposed, and that it rarely
shortens life. The London Spectator,
however, reviewing this theory, main
tains that excessive mental toil must
-shorten life, and did evidently shorten it
in the case of many of the 500 cited
but they had originally more vigorous
constitutions and a large amount of vital
force, and, by virtue of this superior
vitality which explains in part, also,
their superior brain power, they were
able to continue hard work even to old
age, before breakimg down under the
pressure though the same vital force
would have prolonged life for many years
they had not exhausted it prematurely.
