Maggie 'a Toothache.
Maggie Morton wus a very liao little
girl if rihe uat a tomboy. She oouKi
ride " any horse ' (so she said, but her
experience bad been limited thus far to
a couple of aged specimens who plowed
corn for a living), rake buy, hoe com,
fish, "pull off shoots" wbioh, trans
lated, meant firing off her brother 1 lur
ry 'tj gun and sundry other accomplinh
ments we bave not space here to men
tion. Bat you never heard this little
lass boast of work indoors. Indeed no.
She lived in tho open air a great por
tion of tbe time, and it could not be ex
pected of ber that she should take care
of Dame Nature and her mother, too.
So shti ran wild, and was healthy and
happy.
Now, with nil her health and good
nature, Maggie bad one fault. Slit
told very large stories, and was apt to
deceive when it served h r purpose ;
ami this sketch is to explain bow this
little girl was tripped up completely by
a rope of her own stretching.
One fine spring morning hor uncle
Amos stooped as he wus parsing the
house, and called to Maggie, who was
very busily engaged in building a miui
ftture leaning tower out of brick so
much of a leaning one, in fact, that it
managed to fall over when it got hell
the required height. Bhe heard tho
011, ud in a Hash was standing by the
aide oi the carriage in which her rela
tive was seated.
M A present for you, Maggie," he said,
as ht dropped a wee black puppy into
her apron, which she had instinctively
held out after hearing tho fiiBt two
words.
"Ob, thank yon, unele. What a good
one be if, isn't he ? I expect ho will
grow up to wat.h me and bite folks ;
don't you think he will?"
"I nope not," replied her uncle, as
lie drove away "1 expect to make a
few call 4 daring the year myself ; and
if he is ungrateml enough to bite one
who saved him Lorn drowning, 1 shall
be torry for my efforts in hn behalf."
Maggie wended her way toward the
house in silent contemplation of the an
imal that scrambled around in her
apron, now and then giving vent to a
spiteful yell in finding himself in such
close quarters.
" Ob, mamma," she cried, on filtering
the house, "just look here! Such a
real, blessed little puppy ! He's mine.
I'nclo Amos gave him to me. Hear him
scream for milk. Please will you skim
a mess, to he may quit and wag his
tail? '
" Not now, dear," replied tho com
posed mother, as she opened tbe oven
door and withdrew a loaf of snowy
bread. "I will see to him by and by.
It is time for you to get ready for
school. John and Huny have already
gone."
The tears sprang into Maggie's eyes.
Not even one minute left wherein to
enjoy the companionship ol bet beau
tiful pet. She abruptly left the room.
After some ten minutes had passed, her
mother stepped to the door and called
her. No answer. She called again.
Then a faint voice:
" I don't bTeve I can go to uchool
to-dav, ma."
"Why, my dear?"
" I've got the toothache, oh, ever so
bad."
" How long have you had it ?"
" O, a good long while ; but it came
on harder since
"Since the dog came, I suppose?"
added ber mother.
"No, it wasn't the puppy did it. It
just came on."
Now it po chanced that Mr. Clinton,
the teacher, had called at the house
tho evening before, and confided to
MrB. Morton and ber husband a genu
ine and delightful surprise for the
whole school. Mr. Gibson, the owner
of a beautiful place near by, had in
vited him to bring his whole school on
the following day for a good twelve
hours' recreation strawberries and
cream in abundance, and a good time
generally. Mr. Clinton also stated that
tins gentleman had kindly furnished
boats he lived across a beautiful river
that ran by the school-house and oars
men beside. "So I shall merely call
the school to order," ho added, " and
after telling them where we are going,
pack them off ; for my friend says he
wants to greet them in their every-day
school garb not dressed up for the oc
casion." Of course Mr. and Mrs. Morton
promised to keep all this to themselves ;
but they both had enjoyed in anticipa
tion tbe store of genuine pleasure for
their three children. Hut hero was
Maggie with a made up toothache, ask
ing to remain at home, utterly ignorant
of the sacrifice she was making. With
a half sigh her mother assented to her
staying, with tho added inquiry as to
which particular tooth it was that
troubled her.
"Don't know," replied the little cul
prit, trying to cry, "I bTeve it's all of
em.
" Come here, then. I shall rub pain
killer around each tooth."
"Oh no, ma," oxelaimerl the youthful
invalid, -nddenly UifC to the dangers
of having the toothache all KTOttttd.
"I guess it's on'y a little front one.
Don't pnt it on any but the fronton,
pleeee, and I will get over it real soon."
Mrs. Morton always did as she said,
however. She rubbed the preparation
generously throughout the sufferer's
mouth, and, doing her face np in red
flannel, bade her stay in-doors, on pain
of severe punishment, and left her to
her own reflections.
Noon came. Maggie had played with
her puppy to her heart's content, and
was tired of him. So, with her noso
pressed flat against the window-paue,
she watched for her brothers. But they
came not. Two, three, four o'clock,
and still no Harry, no John. Poor
Maggie was almost beside herself with
anxiety by this time, and could not
help wondering at the calm demeanor
of her mother. Hut just as the sun
sank out of sight the front door
slammed, as it only can slam when boys
are about, and in rushed the absent
ones, full of boisterous mirth, and very
much stained about tho mouth.
"Where have you been?" impaired
Maggie, wonderinglv.
" Been!" replied Harry, dancing vig
orously on one leg. " Why, over to
Mr. Gibson's, to be sure. The whole
school was invited. Wo went across in
boats he sent for us. I tell you it was
jolly. Wasn't it, John?'
" It was that," replied John, throw
ing his hat in the curat r and stretching
himself on the lounge. "Hut what was
tho mattt r with you, Mag? All the
girls were crazy to know why you
weren't there."
"Maggie unfortunately received the
gift of a fine pup, ami was immediately
seized with a severe toothache," replied
Mrs. Morton, gravely. "Mr. Clinton
had told me before of ibis holiday, and
I knew what my little girl lost by ber
atllietion ; but as sbo said she was un
able to go I let her stay at home."
Poor Maggie ! This was the uukiud
est cut of all. To know of such a
pleasure and keep her out of it! Her
lips quivered and her little form
trembled, and her Lrothers looked on
in silent pity.
"Your tooth is somewhat better, is
it not?" inquired Mrs. Morton, calmly.
"It's just like it always wis," replied
the child, rising defiantly to her feet.
" ft never ached ! I lied, so I did !"
Mrs. Morton was I wigej mother. She
did net turn the child from her at this
critical moment, when rebellious na
ture, smarting umbr disappointment,
Oonfeeeed its misdeeds for spite's sake.
No, indeed. She tenderly passed her
arm about Maggie's waist, and drawing
her elose to her, softly said :
"Learn from this, my dear child,
that falsehood brings its own reward.
I love you. So do we all. But your
be setting sin has punished you justly
to-day."
Maggie ha i the real, genuine tooth
ache about six months after this event,
but kept it all to herself for a whole
day, like a little heroine, and was only
betrayed when sbo burst into tears
from very pain.
"I knew it was real toothache, ma,"
she said; "but it made rae feel so
'shamed to think of when I bad it make
believe, that I kept still till it broke
through." Christian I 'ii'ton.

Now, my young friends, in case any
of you should come across a nice round,
yellow mock orange, I'll tell you what
10 do with it provided your grand
mother already has a good one in ber

give it to her, and get yourself another
one. Actuary bird told me that the
way old ladies darned stockings was to
put a big yellow ball in them, and then
pick at them with a queer sort of a
shiny steel bill ; and though his de
scription wasn't clear, I knew what he
meant. Well, you take your round
mock-orange, and force a knitting
needle clear through it from the stem
end, so that it will turn evenly on the
needle. Then, with a blunt needle,
you mark the grand divisions of the

and America (you seo I know them)

Tbe movement in tbe grain markota during
tbe week under review has been compara
tively light, and almost wholly on local specu
lative account. There were but few orders
from tli interior, and but little Hpeculutivo
demnnd from other markets. As usual at
this MMOa, there is but littln shipping de
mand, tho absence of any shipping worth
mentioning being duo now to tbe fact that
local speculation has f. treed prices ubove a
"I lipping margin ; prices being against ship
pers all round. Tbe reports from Liverpool
nd New York were without any very impor
tant changea, but tbe governing iiiihiencc!
were generally of a local speculative character.
The receipts of all kinds of grain were
lighter than during the preceding week, and
showed a larger docreaso when compired with
tbe same week last year. Tho shipments
were also lighter, th stock in store
showing an increase ol 880,000 be vhoat,
150,000 hu corn. 170, 000 bu oats. 3.000 bu ryo.
and 18,000 Lu barley. There was but little
Inquiry for Hour, ehippers holding off.
Bprlng wheat was moderately active, but
comewhat unsettled. Values at one time
wei. e to lc lower, and again higher under
the manipulations of speculators. The car
rent quotations at tho close, however, wore
about the samo as at the opening. Tho coin
market is iu a rather peculiar condition. We
have a "corner" In old No. 2 for thin month,
and prioM have advanced from 77e to 80c,
and this tigure was freely bid at the clone. It
is generally conceded that a good many
"shorts" are still Outstanding, and the
probability is that prices will rule higher this
wet k : that is, should the combination deem
it prudent to tgntu the mar
kot any further. New ccrn was weak,
both for present and also for future
delivery, tho receipts being larger than had
been expected . The oat market was m tho
