Day after day, i. week, summer and winter, vain'and shine, x] went the sme, way ; somen Meta pry ag with cold, sometimes choking tears when afbigger boy called me baby"; sometimes loitering to fay about ---- river, sometimes running | , hungry my supper; sometimes (vith met atone bat ¢ oftener With one litle Sol troubles alike,--"my little: sweet heart," I called her, as the years slipped by and I came to know that there was such things as sweethearts, A very happy little pair we were, for my troubles grew smaller as 1 grew bigger and able to revenge myself on the®: boys who were wont to dub me 'baby. *_ But one trouble haunted me/still ; my little Jennie had amether friend, a bigger and better looking boy than I, and every word she spoke to him, every glance she gave him, roused my anger, and I soon hated him with all the unreasoning hatred that a boy of twelve can bestow on a fancied enemy. Boon a crisis came, 'T had' worked being transformed into a ring for my little sweetheart, and at last it was finished -- Delicate and slender as a thread, I turned it over and polished it for the last time, and slipping it carefully into my pocket, I start- ed off in seach of Jennie, When I came to the bridge I saw her resting there, with a basket at her feet, Stealing up to her, and passing my arm timidly about her waist, I drew the ring from my pocket, and trying to overcome my boyish bashfalness, I was about to blunder out some speech asking her to wear it, when glancing at the little brown hand resting on the stone coping, 1 saw on her finger, not a poor little black thread like mine, but a silver band that seemed to have been cut out of a coin. How quickly my boyish shyness and awkward- ness fled! In an instunt my face was burning with anger and my heart thrghbing with hatred, I had withdrawn - my arm from around her and was standing erect and reso ute at her side, Jennie, did George Hanover give you that ring ?' I asked, looking, sternly at her downcast face, "Yes, Will," twisting it nervously around her finger, and then looking up pleadingly, half frightened at. my angry tone. Fora second I held the little. ring before her eves, --the ring that I had fashioned so carefully, s0 loving, that 1 had dreamt such daydreams pover--tor one second I heid it between my fingers, and then dropped it into the river beneath us. "That was for my little sweetheart," I said bitterly, "but I have none now ; George Hanover has stolen her from me," and turned away, feeling very much as if I was the hero in a tragedy. I smile at it all now but it seemed very dreadful to me then -- Standing in the same place twenty years ago, it came back so vividly that I almost thought I could hear the faltering litle voice crying, "Will! oh, Will! comee back," just as it did when I turned to leave her, Tn spite of my anger, I did go back, for there was something in the quivering toffe that touched a very tender chord in my boy- High heart. "I am so sorry, Will," she said crying; " he made me take it, but I'd rather have had yours. I hate him now, and I won't wear it any more," and pulling the cause of the trouble from her finger, she flung it angrily away from her into the water where 1 had dropped the other, Then I awkwardly wiped of the tears and kissed her, and coaxed her back to happiness again; in half-an-hour I had carried her basket home for her, and we were making sand cakes together, as if jealousy, and anger, and pain, were things unknown to children, In all our plans for that wonderful time when wd'would be "grown up," we ncver dreamt that anything could happen to part us two but long before my boyhood was over we had drifted into seperate ways, and our childish plans had shared the fate of our childish soap-bubbles. It is thirty-odd years since 1 saw her last, and then she wose another ring that George Hanover had given her;--a ring that bound them together for life. I saw it shining on her third finger with no hard feelings towards my old rival, for the old love had died away with my boy- hood, and "my litsle sweetheat" was only a _| pleasant memory. --~From " An Old Sketch Book" in the New Dominion Monthly for Sep- tember. id ---- it was evening, Three of them were Kill- ing a cat,' One of them held a. lantern, an- other held the cat, and the. third jammed the pistol into the cat's ear, and fired, shoot ing the man in the hand]who held the cat, fan1 the man with the lantern was be- | wounded in the arm, .

The modern science of medicine has achieved its greatest triumph in detecting the immediate spyrces of many diseases and pointing out the means of avoiding them. -- To the list of perils that may be avoided by proper precaution is now to be added the danger of illness from the use of impure ice. The most striking instauce of this on record has been fully set. forth in q recent report to Mussachusetts State Board of heajth by Dr. A. H' Nicholas, concerning the outbreak of an intestinal disorder among the guests at one of the hotels at Rye Beach in the summer of last year, The symptoms were those generally following a derangement of the diye ¢ system, such "as nausea, giddiness, loss of appetite, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and fever. With about five per cent. of the guests these symptoms werd grave and per- sistent ; among the great majority, and nota. bly with children under ten years old, there was no such illness, and there were no traces of it in the other hotels and the cotta. ges at Rye Beach. Thé sewerage of the hotel was carefully investigated, and then (he water supply ; the proprietors of the hotel leading eager aid to thorough research ; even the kitchen and its processes were overhauled without finding the cause of trouble, At last it was discovered in the ice with which the hotel was supplied. This bad been se. cured from a pond of which .the outlet Lad in recent years been closed by sand and stones washed up from the sca ; the pond thus becoming a stagnant recepticle of mud and sawdust, there being two saw-mills on the stream above. The icc was subjected to cLemical analysis, and was found to contain putrescent vegelable matter. The hotel stopped using the coutaminated Ice, and there was an end to the sickness among its boarders. ----------------e-- ee Cole Younger; the leading spirit of the Missouri train robbers, is regarded as wn- questionable daving and rare address. He always goes abont armed with two heavy revolvers, in the use of which he is an ex- pert, being able on any occasion to draw both from hie belt, one in each hand, at the same time, and to fire them with equal accu- racy. Physical accomplishments, indeed, seem to have been made the boast and pride of this freebooter. He can shoot a pistol over his shoulder with perfect skill, and has been seen to ride at full speed around a race- track and shoot at a mark on a tree, hitting it easily without checking his horse's speed He has also the Indian trick of hanging down on one side of his horse, and while clinging to the neck with one hand firing ugder the horse's head with his usual skill Naturally, such an artist in the use of fire- arms must be one pursued with caution, either by the average detective or average Missouri Sheriff. 'Since the Younger bro- thers became open outlaws, they have not been constant residents of Missouri, keeping 'wut of the State most of the time, and finding a refuge in Texas, | where they occupy a ranche. It has been their custom to revisit their home in Missotiri, in the Spring and Fall, making a den, appearance, and then as suddenly making their disappearance. iiss The Day you were Born.

He took the animal inlo a garden, struck it nine tinies on the head with a hammer, and it still moved, he then boxed its ears with a spade and buried it, Next morning that cat walked serenely in to breakfast, willing te forget the past.' The first seeds of matrimonial discord are usually sown immediately atter going to housekeeping. It is not because the tender wave of harmony no longer pulsates from soul to soul. Tt is because she insists on him doing the marketing immediately after breakfast, on a full stomach, when he doesn't care whetber he has a canvass back duck or a boiled dish-rag for the next meal.
