Hasettine, Warr«4 Ak Jlis name was Phineas Ellsworth, but we boys at the 4'HX Ranch" called him "Hilly Hra#," for reasons jvhich ten minutes' conversation with him would make obvious, even to a ' total stranger. Tn tluit lie opinionated is flawing it very mild, ahdvto state that the chiefest or his opinions was the jmrticularly excel- letrt fine he held of himself, is super­ fluous. Those were humdrum, monotonous clays at the 'ilX," and there was scant opportunity-for.Billy to exhibit the courage, prowess^ skill, ability, and so forth, which--we had his own oftirepeated statements for it--he possessed to a remarkable degree. Once in a while, something would happen to relieve the monotony: but Billy, somehow or other, was never 011 deck to show what he was worth. He alway,s turned up afterward with: "Huh! you galoots jes make me.sichc all over! W'y, any bloomin' tender­ foot c'd a tol' ve bettor'u that'" or, "That wuz a fool trick Now, ef I;d be'n thar, I'd a t so and so " or, "Huh! d'ye call that anythin' ter menshun? W'y, back thar. on th' Kevva Paha, we used t' let th' kids an' wiuimen do that kin' o' work!" And so it went on for nearly a year, and, though we invented many a plan to give Billy an opportunity to show his worth, he managed, on one pre­ text and another to keep out of our snares. One day, Cale Snelling, who was out looking up some strays, fell in with a Maverick steer feeding in a coulee, and, thinking at tlrst that it yv*as an "HX" "critter," rodq towa^djit.... But the beast was what is, knywn us a "bad un," and, horns down and bel­ lowing with rage. Hie_4lTfned and charged on the startled cowboy. Cale tried to turn his pony and run, but the animal was green, and only reared and snorted. Cale thought he was about to take a place herding clouds; but he yanked his gun ana let go, catching the steer right between the eyes, and dropping it not more than ten feet away. • Cale was a bit new in the business, and he was rather pale when he rode up to the ranch and related his ex­ perience, but there was a triumphant tone in his voice as he told of his suc­ cessful shot from the b«ck ot a buck­ ing pony. Billy listened with, a superior air. "Huh!" he remarked, disdainfully, "whadje wanter kill 'im fer? Ye c'd jes 'z well 'creased' an' roped 'im. Some folks never hev no r'gard fer prop'tv. Waste not. want nothin'." We all groaned and .proceeded to congratulate Cale on his luck, but Billy did not seem to care. He was getting used to our irreverence. It may be noted, however, that when we tried'next morning, to get Billy to take a shot at a'blarrkct nailed 011 a shed-door, to see how near he could have come to "creasing" a mad steer from the back of a fool pony, our proposition met with scorn. "There ye go agin," said Billy. "What's th' blame use o' wastin' er whole lot o' ca'tridges jes't' convince er mess o* gabblin' egiots thet er frhing kin be did'^, Aw.gooff an'try pourtdin'sail* in rat-hole fer yer wits. But ye carn't even do that." And he rode off much offended. When Joe Fleming, brother of the boss, and Hank Barr had a brush with half a dozen Indians, and just es­ caped with their lives, leaving a bunch of fat cattle to j^e run off by Uncle Sam's dear sweet proteges, Billy's opinion was at once forthcoming. "Huh ! Ye mout jes' 'z saved mos' o' th' critters an' got them thievin' red cusses, too. W'y didn't ye, w'en ye seed'em ridinf down on ye, jes'kill three 'r four critters, pile 'em up fer a barricade, an' give th'red devils reg'lar h--1? That'd ben bettcr'n losin' th' hull hunch." When Bob Hall, cfbwboy from the "3-Bar,"' the next ranch--one of the i meanest, ugliest, most quarrelsome bullies who ever flourished a gun--got killed at the hotel in town by an un­ offending tenderfoot, whom he had tried to compel to take a drirllc, Billy.i as usual had something to say. "Hull! That's them tenderfoet all over. They think if er man tries t' hev fun with 'em out hyar, thet they've got t' shoot, an' shoot quick. Th' galoot oughter've jes' took Bob Hall b' th' scruff o' th' pantsan' kicked 'r throwed 'im out, an' Bob 'd've pollvgized too &iyck. Bob Hall riever bad no sand." /^fi>the same, there was an old story to the effect that once, when Billy had been un&ccountablv absent from the ranch for three or four days, he had been in town, devoting considera­ ble attention to keeping out of the billigerent Mr. Hall's, way. But Billy's opportunity came one day. He had been laid up' iV'tte^k and was still lame as the resttJt/Wf be­ ing on the side next the wften his pony stumbled and felFone day, and was sitting at the door one morn­ ing about 11:30, when the stage came along. Several of tis were in the ranch-house, ani were somewhat sur­ prised to hear the wheels outside, for the stage-roaa was two miles from the ranch. As we crowded to the door, we saw "something was up," for Dyer, the driver, looked excited. "Mornin', gentlemen," he said. And then, to Boss Fleming: "Flem­ ing, I expect t'be held up over b' Five-Mile Creek. Kin one o'th'boys go with me? I'll get 'nother man at Parker's, an' I reckon three'U be 'nough." , \ "Why, yes; of course," was the re­ ply; "you can have more, if you want Hsm. I'll go myself. But why didn't you bring guards, IX you're any valuables?" ' Dyer explained. The night before he had noticed three suspicious-look­ ing characters in town, ajnd observed that they eyed him considerably. This morning he had staited early, hoping to pass all the places favorable to a "hold-up ' before the three tough- looking gentlemen had time to get located, ne had felt a bit backward about bringing guards, as he did not like to appear cowardly, and. besides, his suspicions might be groundless, and the laugh would be op. him. There were no valuables except the mail-bags. ^ But the three strangers had passed him a mile back, evidently iu a hurrv to get somewhere; hence his visit to the "HX." Fleming turned to get ready to go --lie was not the man to send some­ body else into danger--but was met at the door by Billy, "heeled" with two revolvers and a Winchester. "Hullo, man!" ejaculated.Fleming. "Didn't j'ou hear me say I was going?"' -f "Don't care ej ye did," answered Billy,, curtly. "Th's plenty work t' do, aii' iuy laigs is too at iff I* addle any blame bronco." And he climbed painfully up on to the driver's seat, and the stage rolled away, leaving us staring at each othei^ unable to be­ lieve our eyesv ' • : 'The stage did not react) the /Five- Mile. nor did it reach Parker's/ At a place two miles west of the "HX," where the road traversed the edge of a bluff overhanging a deep ravine, there were three shots tired, and brave Walt Dyer and his two team-leaders fell into the road. Then there were more shots--a rattling fusillade for two or three minutes--then silence. When we got to the scene, ^e saw Billy Brag lyiiitr across the body of thfe driver, supporting himself on one elbow, ami keeping "the drop" on a man who stood holding up one arm-- the other was shattered, and hung limp. Two dead men, besides Dyer, lay in the road. The* wheelers were quiet now, but their hoofs "had cruelly mangled the 1 todies of their prostrate comrades in front. "I knowed ye'd come, boys," said Billy, "else I'd a hed t,' kill this 'un, 'stead o' savin' 'im fer a lcetle necktie- party. Thev got Dyer, fust lick, but w'en they run up agin Phin Ellsworth, they ketchcd er h--1 ov- er feller. Guess I kin die off, real peaceful, now." But he did not die. With a ball iji his leg, another traveling around somewhere 011 his inside, and a wound in his throat which causes his voice to tread in a ludicrous way, he ' still lives and brags of this very exploit. Thuy i' ollowmi Copjr^ In the days when merchant vessel? came home redolent of spices and loaded to the brim with silks and china, a certain family, described by 31 iss Leslie in her "Pencil Sketches," determined to send beyond seas for a dinnee service which should outshine in oeauty everything thus far seen on this side of the Atlantic. Original designs of fruit and flowers, arranged in the form of wreath, had been made for it by a skillful artist, and the sea-captain who undertook the commission was charged to spare no money or pains in having it properly carried out. Spring returned, and there was much watching of the vanes by this particular family, and the ship-news furnished the most interestingcolumn of the daily papers. At length the long-expected vessel arrived, and when she had cast anchor, the ladies of tb£,,/family could scarcely refrain from walking down to the wharf, to see the ship that held the box that held the china. Invitations were at once sent out for a long-projected dinner-party, at which the new porcelain could be dis­ played. The box was landed, and conveyed to the house. The whole family were present at the opening, \Vhieh was performed by Mr. A himself, while the servants peeked 111-at the door. - As soon as a part of the lid was split off, and a handful of straw re­ moved, a pile of plates appeared, wrapped carefully in paper. Each of the family snatched up a plate, and hastily tore off the covering. There were the flowers, gloWing in beautiful colors, the gold star and colden A, atftnirably executed. But under the gold star, on every plate, dish and tureen, were the words, "This is the middle!" The literal and exact Chinese work- man had copie'd this direction min­ utely from a v|er'y crooked line which •Mr. A haii hastily scrawled on the pattern wit\ a very bad pen, and of course, without the slightest thought of finding it inserted verba­ tim boneath the central ornament. Mr. A. ---- laugher], his wife cried, the servants gijrgle^ and the daugh­ ter cried first, andi^iiighed afterward. t The only silver lininir to the cloud was the fact that thereafter Mr. A always had something amusing to tell his guests at a dinner-party. ttlfthnp CTIIaon. In the seventeenth century Bishop Wilson ̂ assent the Isle of Man--then containing a lawless and ignorant com­ munity--with such unlimited power over clergy and people that it is a won­ der he succeeded in doing good rather than evil. A tyrant did he prove,but a loving one, and all Manzmen to-day bless the good Bishop's name. In time of famine he threw open his own house to the needy, and gtfcye without stint, asking nn man whether he were saint or sinner, but onfy if he hun­ gered. , When his own means were gone, he begged from England, though he was, as one historian declares, 4 si man whe would not have held out lib hat tc save his owp life." , He never desired preferment, but clung to his own thorny road with the fceal of one who has renounced ma terial goo|l for the love of the high­ est. • .. . "See, ffiy lords," said Queen Caro­ line one day. as he approached the crowd of churchmen who surrounded her, "here is a Bishop who does not come for translation." "Xo, please your Majesty,"' saie WilRm,, nut leave my wlfy it her old age Because she is poor." His, island was, iudeed, a poor spot, but he had wedded it lor life, ' His loving-kindness was of a sort .which inevitably begets love'in return. One day in the market-place a little girl of 7 years crossed his path. Slu was rosv-cheeked, bright-eyed, bare oi head and feet, and with* a rush ol love, the ghiy old "Bishop patted hci on the head, saying, "God bless you: my child!" The little maid, cour tesied. « * "God bless you, too. sir," said she. "Thank you, child, thank you!' said the good old man. "I dare saj your blessing is as good as mine." - It was customary in those days tc employ journeymen as tailors. One. Danny by name, was making a long .walking-coat for the Bishop, »nd it trying it on, he made numerous chalk' marks to indicate the place of but tons. • "No, no, Danny," ^aid the Bishop. "No more buttons than enough t< fasten it. One will do. It would i\ become a poor minister like me to g< a-glitter with things like these." Now Danny had already bought th< buttons, and had them at that 1110 mpnt in his pocket. Therefore he was sore-discoiullted, and said, pull­ ing a woeful face: "Mercy on .me, my lord! Whal would happen to the poor button makers if everybody was of your opin­ ion? ' "Button it all over, Danny!" saic the Bishop. "Button it all over!" Dilatory Luvnrt, Without a dash of "modest assur­ ance"--or shall we call it modified impudence--no man is likely to make much headway with any lady. No woman, however bashful. e admires sheepish ness in a lover; on the con­ trary, retiring, tender, sensiti-ve wo­ men usually prefer bold, outspoken fellows, who push matters to a crisis' with earnestness and dispatch. He who sits down before the fortress of a woman's heart, with the hope of bringing it to terms of capitulation by slow and regular approaches, will usually find that ft "laughs a siege to scorn-." and the chances are that, while be is dawing his lines of cir- cumvallation, a more passionate wooer will assault the work at some Weak point and carry it by storm.--New York Ledger.

The mistress of the lious< treated the soldiers kindly, but thej had come in search of provender, anc provender they meant to have. So they drove off her only pig, lattice! it and carried it back to camp. I had a guilty conscience, I assure you. The hog was cooked, but 1 could not eat a morsel of it. I think it would have choked me. Shortly afterward my father sent me a silver watch and some Confed erate money. I could not rest. I took $100, and went alone to the old lady't house. "Madam," said I, "some - soldier! were here a short time ago and took your hog. I was one of the party, and I wish to pay you for it. What was it worth?" "Why, sir,"she answered," "monej 'is oi no value to me: I cannot buy anything that I need: 1 would muct rather have the hog." "But that is impossible, madam: the hog is dead and eaten, and I havt come to pay you for it." The old lady's eyes filled witl tears. She declared that she was perfectly willing to give the "soldiers everything she had. If the hog had done us any good, she could 1101 charge anything for it. r4Well, madam." says I, "here is a hundred dollar bill, new issue. -"Will this pay you tor the hotr?"

She invited me to stay lor dinner, and afterward I sat down by her side, took her old hand in. mine, and told her the whole, story; of the hog; how sorry I was, and how I could not eat any of the pork. Then I begged her, as a special kindness, to take the hundred dollars, and so to ease my conscience. I laid the bill on the table and went awav.

Donai.i> Kennedy--Dear Sir: I will state ray oaae to you : About nine ye«rs auo I was paralrzed in my left.tside and the best doctors gave mo no relief 'tor two ye urn, and 1 wbs advised to iry your Discovery, which did its rmty, and in a few months 1 was re- atored to health. About four year, aeo I bfcame blind in my lelt'eye by a spotted cataract. Last March I was taken with La drippe, and was confined to my bed for tliree months. At the end ot that timi>, as in the ttart, then it struck-rae that yotrt Discovery was the thinx forme;-o I got* bottJi, and before it was half gone I was abl; to go to my work in the mines. Now in regard to my eyes; its I lost my lett eye, and about six months »go mv right eye became affected with black t-pots over the sitfht as did the left <-ye--perhaps some twenty of them-- but since I have been using your Discovery they all left ray riuht cj*e tut one; and, thank (Jod, the bright light of heaven is oDce more making its ap­ pearance n my left eve. I am wonderfully aston­ ished at it. and thank Ood and your Medical Dis­ covery. Yours truly. Hank Whit*. THE BLOOD. "The blood thereof is the life there­ of," says the Scriptures. The effort of all remedies that aim to heal dis­ eases that attack the respiratory or­ gans is to put t(he blood in .proper condition. The lungs remove the carbolic acid; the kidneys remove the uric acid. These two organs purify the blood. When you take cold both these organs are ilffected, the kidneys no less than the lungs. You cannot have a cold on your lungs without its affecting the kidneys also. Now, if you will take Reid's German Cough and Kidney Cure, you will have a remedy-that ministers at once to these two organs, restores them both to ac­ tivity, and allays the inflammation. It is the only cough remedy on the market that does this. It is on this account the best. It is particularly- good for children, because it contains no opiates, and there is no dangenfrom an overdose. Get it of your dealer. Sylvan Remedy Co., Peoria. 111.
