The wife replied:
"That I gtuxL Go. Yoa can work
d aria the day and at night yon can re

Exaelyan wmit. lie arrived at the
palswe. The geweroor'a foreman aaked
tarn:
""fTiydil you -come alone, without
jrour wif-j?"
"Why brin her? She ha her house."
They gare Emelyan work in the gov
ernor's yard that would hare been a
hard tank for two men. Emelyan set

would not be able to fini-ii it, but be
fore eight he had nfihed it alL The
ti reman saw that tie had done all of it
and gare hira for the neat day four

Dnt yoa yon mtft not think about

In the morning Emelyan returned to

to one ride. Lo! by the evenicaj: it was
all fir.ishTl. and before it waa ilark he
ww at home. They pxit more and more
work npen Emelyan, but he always

A wek h.w goTu by. The gowrnor's

teh- aaid. . "Yoa cannct eecape hiia, and

"Dut bw to obey when it Li beyond

"Little father! do not grieve. Take

Emrly au went to btd. The wife awvie
iilXL
M.io," te eaid; "g quickly and get
your catLlral bnilt. Here you have
naiL and a haiiiiiier, and thre U only
cne day's work kft fr yoa."
Emlyan went t the city, arrived at
the palace and behold! thr& a new
cathlra.l btanding in the mi Idle cf the
e'iare, wanting only a little of Iting
tiiJohe.1. Emelyan started to give it the
finishing tone be where they were r-iuirt-d,
and by the evening everything
w3 complete. The governor awoke up,
looked out froia tiw palace and saw the
cathedraLwith Emdyaii walking aronn-1
it, merely putting in a nail here and there.
The sb;ht of the cathedral did not glad
den the heart of the governor. lie wai
funoQS at having no opportunity of le-h-.ading
Emelyun and taking hi wife.
The governor calb bin 6-rvanti again.
4,Exaelyan fulfilled thw taak hl3," he
jaid. "We miut invent eomething more
C4 implies til for him. Invent it. If you
do not I wils'Urhvad you first." II is
servant contrived that the governor
should order Emelyan to make a river
flowing around the palace, with large
t-L-j floating on it. The governor or
dered Enif lyan to perform tliia new task.
'If," he aid,N"yoa couM build a
cathedral in one day, you can do tlm
alo. All must be ready tomorrow, as I
have ordemi it. If it is not ready your
head will be cut off."
Emelyan became more dejected than
ever, and returned with the gloomiest
of faces.
44 Why," she said, "are you so gloomy?
Uaa something new been ordered?"
Emelyan told her all.
It w necessary," he said, "to run."
"It is impvxwible to run away." she
aaid. "We shall be caught wherever
we go. We must obey."
"But how obey?"
"Oh, little father, do not trouble about
anything! Take your supper and lie
down to fdeep. Get up earlier and every
thing will be in time."
Emelyan lay down to sleep. In the
morning the wife wakea him up.
"Cro," she said, "int the city. All U
ready. There u only a littlo hillock left
beside the harbor. Take your ppade and
level it." v
Emelyan went and arrived at the city.
Round the palace ran a river; vestals
were floating on it. " Emelyan went to
the harbor and saw there a hillock,
which he started to level. The gov
ernor wakes up, looks out and sees a
river where previously there had been
none. On .the river vessels were float
ing, and Emelyan with the spade is lev
eling the hiiloclt.
The governor was astounded, and he
waa not pleased with either the river or
the vwsels, being vexed to think that ho
could not behead Emelyan. He thinks
to himself: "There is nothing that ho
cannot do. What U it to bo now?" He
eailod the servants and began to consult
with them.
"Invent for me," he says, "a taak that
Emelyan cannot fulfill, for all that we
have hitherto invented he has done, and
I cannot take away hid wife."
The servants thought and thought, and
at hit they found something. They
wont to the governor and said:
"Call Emelyan and epoak to him thus:
Go there, without knowing where, and
bring that, without knowing what.
Wherever he goes you can then say that
he hae not gone where he was needed,
and whatever he brings you can say that
it is not what id wanted. He can then
be beleded and his wife taken."
The governor was delighted.
"This," he said, "you have Invented
wisely." He sent for Emelyan and said
to him:
"Go there, without knowing where,
and lirir.g that, without knowing what.
If you do not bring it I shall cut oil
your head."
Emelyan went to hi wife and told her
what the governor had said. The wife
pondered.
"Now," she said, "they have taught
the governor a leson that ho himself
will suiTer by. Tho thing has to be
managed wisely."
She sat down, reflected, and spoke to
her husband as follows:
"You will have to go far to our
grandmother to our old peasant moth
er.' You must implore iVr kindne.su ud
yon will receive something from her.
Yon muft thn go straight to the gov
ernor and I sluill bo there. This time I
hall not bo aMo to escapo from th'-ir
hands. Thy will tJte me by force, but
it will not be for long. If you do all
th grnndmother tells you, you will soon
f r" m."
The wif prepnrM her husband for
the journey, giving him a small bag and
a spin lie.
"Give this spindle to our grandmoth
er." she sail. "By this fhe will know
that you are my hn.bnd."
Th wife showed him tb way and

The old woman listened and tUpcd
to wi?p. bta began lauttenug lo Lr-
feelf.
"All right," she sail; "kit down, tit
tle son, and eat."
Emelyan aie, and the old woman
started giving Lira instructions.
"Ht-re," the bail, "you have a bail.
Roll it before you, and go after it
wherever it runs. You will have to go
a lofcg way to the ocean. You will
get to the ocean, and there you will ?e
a large city. Enter the city, and ask in
tha farthest house for a night's bulging.
There you luut fcearvh for what you
nxrd."
"But how, grandmother, thall I know

"When you ee what people oley bet
ter than father or mother that will bs
the thing. Catch hold ot it and carTy
it away. You will bring it to the
governor; he will toll you that you have
not brought what was needed, and you
muet then ay, 'If this is not the thing
it must be broken in pitrors.' Beat upon
it and then take it to the rivvr; bre&k it
and throw it into the water. You will
then get back your wife."
Emelyan bade the grandmother good
by and decried, rolling the ball before
him. The Ixill rolled and rolled and
brought him to the ocean. By tho ocean
was a largo city. At the far end of it
was a big house. Emelyan asked for
leave to sleep iu the hou.e and was ad
mitted. He lay down to sleep. Early
in the morning he awoke nnd heard tho
father going up to arou-e his son that
he might send him to chop wood. The
6on does not obey.
"It is early yet," he saya; "there is
time."
Enxdyan hears the mother getting
down from the oven, and she says:
"Go, my little son; the father's lHnes
are aching. Must he go himself? It is
time."
The son merely smacked his lips and
slept once more. While ho slept there
arose a terrible noise in the street and a
heatiug, as of drams. The son jumped
up, pnt on his clothes and ran out into
the street. Emelyan also jumped up
and ran after him.
"What is that which the son obeyed
better than father or mother?" f
Emelyan rau out and saw a nai go
ing along the street and carrying a round
thing on which he beat with sticks and
which rumbled. This thing the son
obeyed. Enielyan ran toward it, began,
to examine it and saw a thing that was
round, like a barrel, and had both ends
covered with skin. Ho began to ask
what it was caMed.
"A drum," the man said. '
Emelyan was surprised and he asked
that it should bo given him. It was not
given. Emelyan gave up asking and
commenced to walk after the man. Ho
walked all day, and when tlte man lay
down to sleep Emelyan snatched the
drum away and ran off with it. He ran
and ran and came home to hs own city.
He thought tluit he would see his wife,
but ehe was no longer there. She had
been taken off the next day to the gov
ernor. Emelyan reported to the governort
"He who went there, without knowing
where, has brought that, without know
ing what."
The announcement was made. The
governor ordered that Emelyan should
come the next day. Emelyan started to
announce himself again.
"I have come today," he said, "and
have brought what was ordered. Let
tho governor come out to me; if not, I
will myself go in."
The governor went out.
"Where," he says, "have you been?"
Ho answered.
"Yon have not been there," said the
governor. "But what did you bring?"
Emelyan wanted to show him, but the
governor did not want to look.
"That i3 not it," he paid.
"If it is not," said Emelyan, "it must
be broken, and the devil with it."
Emelyan went out with the drum and
beat upon it. As he beat upon it all the
military of the province collected around
Emelyan. They saluted him and waited
for orders from him. The governor be
gan shouting out to his soldiers that
they should not follow Emelyan. They
paid no attention, but all marched after
hiia. The governor saw it and ordered
that Emelyan's wife should bo brought
out beforp him. He asked that Emelyan
give him np the drum.
"I cannor," sail Emelyan; "I have
orders to break it and throw the pieces
iu tho river."
Emelyan went with the drum to tho
river, and th. soldiers followed him.
Near the river Emelyan broke tho dram
akin. He lroke the wood into small
fragments r.nd threw them into tho
river. And all the soldiers ran away.
Emelyan took his wife and led her
home. From this time the governor
ceased bothering him, and Emelyan be
gan to live com fort ably, gathering
around hkn the good things of life and
ridding himself of the bad. Count Tol

Brussels Carpets are the
old reliable. You always
know that you can depend
upon them and not find
them disappointing you.
Taps are good. Body Brus
sels better. The one will
wear for a dozen years or
more, and the other is good
for about a score more,
rather than less. Know
ing the demand for Brus
sels, special attention has
been given to that branch
of the business. A finer
line of them has neverbecn
shown in Grand Rapids.
You pay for a Brussels
Carpet today what you
formerly did for an Ingrain.
If one wished to pay $50
r ?7.S per pair for Lace
Curtains they were sure to
buy "Brussels." It is not
necessary these days to
give any such amount of
money; 10 to $2S will sat
isfy the critical purchaser.;
and wc guarantee them to!
be the genuine article. I

"A Public Office a Public Tru?!."
You can cut thee cake; until you hu?t.
The people seem to be trying to prove the truth of the nbovo
little pleasantry. They are eating so main- of the new
Tariff Bcform Cakes
That we can scarcely supply the demand. That's not to bej
wondered at, however, for they are line cakes, the Jinest in tbe
land, and whether you are Tariff Reformer or not, you an't
do better than to et a pound from your procer.
