T-ie manliest thing in this world is to
do j oui duty lu that state of life to which
it shall please God to call you.
Alter this time Jack Trevor's life un
der went a great change; it seemed to flow
into different cnanntls altogether. In
fact, he was then thrown entirely upon
bis o wn re iponsi oi llty, as mac h so as was
possible with a young man not yet of
ago.
“I think, J.-'k,” Lord Gascoigne said
to him the night before he went down to
joint his regiment, "I think that you had
better have an allowance of say £400 a
year. It's quite enough for a newly
joined subaltern, in fact, I never had
more till 1 was five and twenty. You
will have your full Income, of course
when you coice of age, but till then It
will really be far more to your advantage
if you only have a part of it.”
“Ail right,'* said Jack. Ha was not
extravagant, he had no large ideas, no
love of show, and to, him £409 a year
seemed q die as much as he wan likely io
want ior the present. "All the same,
Unale Dick,” ue said, “1 don’t see quite
how I am io buy my chargers out ol it ”
• No, no; you must oe started properly,
of Cjurne,” Lord Gascoigne replied
“•You'L find three horses enough for you,
1 should ihiak.”
“I s ippose so,” said Jack, “uLless I
eh .uia want a polo pony.”
“i don't tee notv yuu'Udo it on £400 a
year," Lord G scoigne said, tnougut
luily, “out ol course, Jrtck, If you really
want more, tae money is mere and you
can h-.ve it, only I dun t want you to gut
Into the way ol spending it simply oe-
cause it is tUero to be tpint, Go you

“Oh! yes, I see,” answered Jack easily,
“1 dare say i snail make lour hundred uu
very well.”
Lind Gascoigne had, bo.vever, some*
thing mure to say. "Yoa see, Jack,
twelve hundred a year is a very good in
come fer oacuelor, and as long as you re
main a bachelor you are ail right, hu i if
you should want to get married, way,
you'll iind twelve hundred a year just-
next to nothing at all.”

CALVES POR FIFTY CENTS APIECE
They Make Hob Veal, and tli<- Industry
Thrives in the Catskills.
They are selling calves for a half dollar
apiece up in the Catskills. One night a
number of farmers met around the stove
in the oflice of a Greeoe county hotel to
talk the matter over. They seemed to
think that a half dollar was a fair price
for tbe calves, inasmuch as the meat these
very young bovines afford is a questionable
article of diet. It is ordinarily called “bob
veal. ”
One farmer said that n neighbor of his
was making a great deal of money buying
these calves from the farmers, l ie sends
a wagon over a wide extent of country,
buying all the new born calves, which the

A week or more ago of a bright Sunday
morniug, while the organ at St. Thomas’
was pealing forth the voluntary and the
people had risen to their responses, a
curious and most wonderful thing hap
pened. In the middle aisle-., just a seat or
two from the front, is one long pew simply
upholstered in dark leather that has for a
year been quite empty, but which bears on
it a silver {date holding a name wc-ll known
in Wai! street. Tlie pew’s owner we all
know has made a pile of money. He has

way satisfied and again whetted anew, for,
as the services began, the double green in
side doors of the church flew open, there
was a In a,l cl feet ami up the way came
first ills li rdsi.ip—the most prosperous
man iu the street—rigged out in London
clothes, a flower in his coat, and followed
by madam, radiant i:i much rich silk of a
sober tone, and half leaning on a gold
headed, tortoise shell stick. Behind her
came the daughters, types of English maid
ens, severely gowned, prim and haughty;
but publie astonishment stopped not there,
for in the footsteps of the daughters moved
with stately stride a gigantic footman ia
full regimentals', his high nose held well
up and a bag of books on one stout arm.
The family filed iuto the pew, settled
themselves, the footman unbent, opened
the Bilk embroidered hag, doled out the
books aud noiselessly stepped back and
down to another empty pew, where h«
humbly said his prayers. Service over, he
collected iiis hooks and charges, marshaled
them out to tlie street aud followed them
