He wna angry with her —most unreasonably angry with her, but he could not lose the chance of speaking to her alone. ‘Miss Jessie,’ said he quietly. Jessie gave a faint scream. He had frightened her so much that she trembled like a leaf. She was going to run out of tiie room, when his voice arrested her injve- inent. •I shall be sorry that I revealed myself if you are going to run away,’ he went on.

And for the first two or three days she kept carefully out of his way. and Mr. Leith remained un conscious of tiie fact that lie was under the same roof with a pretty girl. But lie made the discovery one afternoon. When wandering through the orchard, with his hands behind his hack, he catne suddenly upon a slight, girlish figure, in brown holland. a wide hat shading her eyes from the sun.

She was looking tin usually well; a color became Iter, but it was not the rose flush Ujatn her cheeks that made her look so lovely. There was a change in her to-night, anti her sister was vaguely conscious of it as the girl stood looking down into the glow ing fire in the kitchen grate. •Our Jessie is growing a regu lar beauty,’ observed Caroline to her father when her sister had gone up to l>ed. •Handsome is that handsome does,’ returned Mr. Mavbrick, puffing away at his pipe. Jessie’s •Yon seemed very happy.* •Bolt and I are always like that,’ observed Jessie, her eyes begin ning to sparkle, and a little smile quivering on her sweet lips. But George Leith could not see these signs of merriment. ‘I hope you always will he,’ he said. ‘May I wish you every ha|>- piness?’ •You may if you like.’ said Jes sie with an odd little break in her voice, for she was trying hard to smother her laughter. •When is it to be?' asked Mr. Leith, trying to speak lightly, but not succeeding very well. •When is what to be?’ asked Jessie with a little gasp. •Your marriage, of course,’ re aiucation had cost him no entl of! turned Mr. Leith rather coldly.

He ■lit! his best to please that after noon; but was it ouly for the ben efit of the farmer and hia elder daughter, or did ilia eyes wantler in the direction of Jessie’s slim figure?

Ellis Jones, mail carrier, who witnessed the fiery mass in its flight ’through the heavens says it moved with incredible velocity, and was as large as the largest barn he ever saw. There appeared to be at Inched to it an immense flame of a deeper color than that which en veloped the muss. When the noise accompanying it ceased, the flames and dark tail disappeared, and in their stead the stone as sinned a whitish blue hue, which it retained until it passed out of sight.

The peo ple are flocking to sec the wonder in great numbers. ^ At a dinner recently given in London the question was asked, "Wliat was the origin of the $ mark?” One of the savans explain ed that the American dollar is pat-1 terned from the Spanish dollar. On the reverse side of a Spanish dollar is a representation of the pillars of Hercules, and round each pillar is a scroll with the in scription, “Plus ultra.” This tie vice in the course of time has de generated into the sign which stands at present for American as well as Spanish dollars— The scroll round the pillars repre sent* tiie two serpents, sent by- Juno to destroy Hercules in his cradle.

The following is from the Ste vens Point (Wis.) Gazette; “One of llte greatest curiosities of the present day, found among the pines of Central Wisconsin, was discovered near Knowllon a few weeks ago. It was in the form of a petrified squirrel, alxitit llte size of a common squirrel, and was la ken from the heart of a tree by some woodsmen. It was ol a brownish color, as hard as rock, and was ‘as natural as life,’ even to the kink in its long, bushy tail. The curiosity was carefully pack ed and sent by William Mulhollen, its owner, lo President Cleveland, from whom a personal letter of thanks was received last week by the sentler, saying that it would be carefully preserved and placed in the public museum at Wash ington.” Alliens is to have free schools. Twoyears ago 31r. Russell, ol Clarke, got a bill through estab lishing free schools in Athens. The Governor vetoed the bill at request of the City Council. An issue was made at the last elec tion for free schools. A City Council, loo, has been elected that favors the free school system. A day or two ago 3Ir. Iiusseli passed his bill for tree schools. It is said the Governor will not veto it. rrhej Would Both Feel Bad. Little I toy—‘•Would Mr. Wash ington have felt bad if his. little hoy, George, had told a lie about the cherry tree?

People who have warm friends are healthier, happier Ilian thoM who have none. A single real friend is a treasure worth more than gold or precious stones. Money can buy many things, good anti etil. All the wealth of the world could not buy a friend, or pay you for the loss of one. “I ltave ouly wanted one thing t* make me happy,” Hazlitt writes; • but wanting that, have wanted everything.” And again, “My heart shut up in the prison house of this rude clay, lias never found,- nor will ever lint), a heart to speak to.” We are the weakest of spendthrifts if we let a friend drop off through inattention, ot let one push another away; or it we hold aloof from one for petty jealousy or heedless slights or roughness. Would you throw away u diamond because it prick ed you? One good friend is not to be weighed against the jewels of the earth.—f'hriufiiin ai Work. I‘. may noi be known l<» some housewives that if flour is kept in ■i closet with onions or cabbage it will absorb unpleasant odors from t hem; you may not notice this un til the flour is cooked, but then you will. A large chocolate and cocoa nut cake was prepared for • tea party not long since. It wa» not tasted until it was passed at- lea time, when the mistress ob served a strong onion flavor, which, though an excellent on* in its place, was here a thing of evil. It was discovered afterward that a basket of onions bad bees left for two days in the storeroom with the flour, and everything, even the bread baked from tbw flour, had the onion flavor. A Nevada hunter spent three months looking fora grizzly bear, and the man’s relatives spent three' months looking for him. They think he must have found the hear.
