'But excuse me ; you was sayin" § 'H'm--I wonder what I was about to say 1 Never mind.' ' The meal sustained the reputation which the farmer had given his wife as a cock, but the young man told him self that he would cheerfully have dined on sawdust and water, for the pleasure of sitting opposite Fia, There was nothing wonderful about the table talk, but the girl took part in nll of it as naturally as if it were the family custom to expect her opiniott alout everything ns it was. After dinner the fatherjwent to the barn to look to his live stock, but it was the mother, not the daughter, who reiained in the sitting room to enter- tain the visitor. It was évident that the family kept no servants, and the thought of Fia washing dishes and clearing ty the debris of the table affected the visitor's mind so strongly that occasionally he found himself absent minded. She had beeh brought up to it, of course, probably it would be her duty for the remainder of her days, aven if she should marry some hopeful young farmer ; still the young wan could not help recalling the farm- er's remarks about 'some folks' luck. What business was it of his, though, and why should he worry about it, so seemed entirely contented, as she did Had she worn a sullen face and a heavy lip he would not have blamed her, but 'where ignorance is bliss,' eto. "Twas strange, though ; in the room to at once as a girl'sown, he had seen a few books--a very few, from which no young woman could fail to learn much which is more interesting than house- work in a farm house, The young man's wonderings ended when the farmer returned from the barn, for a sense of responsibility for his guest's detention made the older man do his best to make the evening puss pleasantly, and as, like many another man of a calling that makes steady demand upon the bands yet leaves the head a great deal of leisure, he knew thoroughly whatever he knew atall. Finally the farmer said: *T reckon you've heen shook up enough on the train to day to Le will- ing togo to Led carly. We country folks have to go to bed with the chickens almost, for we have to get up almost as early, The wowen excused themselves and the young man wished he dared apolo- gize to the girl for depriving her of her room. As the host lighted him up- stairs a business struggle was going.on in the young man's mind. Tt ended by his saying abruptly, as the farmer turned to leave the room : 'By the way, you said it would cost as much toclear and drain that low land asthe ground itself would be i Z worth. 1 chanee to know something | KILLED IN SELF TSvant to make you an offer.

I used many reme- dies and tried numerous doctors, with the only result that I grew poorer in both health add pocket. At last in despair T went to the General Hospital for treatment, but the result was no better, and on the 30th of April, 1891, I left that institution a poor broken hearted, downcast man, Dr. Macdouell having informed me that they had done all they could for me. I continued to live on in misery until about the middle of August, when I saw in The Mont- real Star an article telling the story of a man who after spending hundreds of dollars, had tried Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and found a cure. Drowning men, they say, will catch at a straw, and it would be impossible for me to express the gratitude I feel for the hope that inan's story gave me. I at once bought a hox of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills from Mr, R. Birks, druggist, on McGill street. Before I had finish ed it I felt that Pink Pills were help ing me, anl I procured four more boxes. These almost restored me to health, and through the kindness of Mr. O'Brien of the harbor works, I was given a light job on the harbor wharf, and was again able to earn my living. I made up my mind, however, to return to the land of my birth, and on the 5th of November, sailed for Eugland.

Murder was the unlawful killing of a person with malice aforethought. All homicide was considered by the law to be malicious unless there was some- thing to show that it was not. They would ther. have to consider the prot vocation, The fact that Baker losf poultry a weck before would be no pro' vocation whatever. The provocation' must be immediate. If the men had time to reflect the law would not ex: cuse them. If there was provoctition the jury would have to decide whether or not that provocation was com- mensurate with the act. When a man uses a weapon that usually casses' death, the law presumes that malice was intended. If death had resulted' unexpectedly then, perhaps, it might' be manslaughter. Wanton and malics ious disregard in killing was termed' murder. The fact that the deceased' was somewhat to blame for his oww' death did not lessen the offence. 1f there had been no carelessness or neglig' ence then it would be killing by mis: adventure.
