THE DISTRICT SCHOOL.
“Come on, dear,” said Amy, putting
up her parasol.
“Dear ’ came, a chubby five-year-old.
“We’ll take a stroll up the road, Mal¬
colm,” said his young aunt.
“All wight,” said Malcolm.
They had come, Malcolm and his pa¬
rents and his father's pretty sister,to pass
the summer in Gloster.
Gloster was only a hamlet, but it was
cool and green and delightful.
“We'll*go along by this stone w*all,
dear,” said Amy.
They passed a maple grove, a little,
old church, some farm-houses, and then
came suddenly upon a square, Avhite
building, with two doors in front and
yellow-blinded windows. Out of the
doors bare-footed children* with dinner-
pails, were coming,
“A district school!” said Amy. “And
it looks so much like—- But of course you
don’t remember, Malcolm. You were
only two years old.”
Smiling in a pleasantly retrospective
way, Amy strolled up to the door.
She would have a congenial little chat
with the teacher. Probably it was a
spinster with a pointed nose and a shoul¬
der-shawl, but—
She and Malcolm went in, and the
teacher rose from the desk,
He was hardly ft spinster! He was a
tall, bright-eyed, dark-moustached, in-
disputably good-looking younar man.
“Oh!” Amy faltered.
“Come in!” said the schoolmaster,
though they were in.
Amy mustered her courage, It was
embarrassing, but after all it didn’t alter
the case. She would have her congenial
talk just the same.
“We thought we’d come in,” she said,
sweetly smiling. “Y*ou sec, I taught a
term in a district school oneft myself,
and—
“Certaiiily-” said, the master, “I am
always glad td have visitors. I'm sorry
niy school is out. ”
He hastened forward to meet her, and
walked back down the aisle with her.
u I’d have been glad to it,” said
see
Amy-—net very regretfully, however.
“See, Malcolm, dear, that rat on the
blackboard.”
‘ ‘I es, I illustrate their lessons for mv
primer children,” said the teacher, laugh-
iug.^ What “They pleasant like my jfictorial efforts;’’
what clearness a laugh he had, and
a ftnd gaiety in his eyes!
Amy’s heart beat a little faster.
“ft's such work; isn’t it; teaching
babies? ’ she said; “I had an infant of
three in niy school.”
‘“Oh, I draw the line there! But I
have them as small as this young man.”
He pinched Malcolm’s fat "cheek.
“Malcolm is five,” said Amy. “Have
you “Oh, many I pupils? I had only sixteen;*’
can beat that! t have forty.”
“And you do it all?” said Amy, her
admiring thi t yes riised to his. “I’m afraid
genial presumptuous to try to have a con-
talk,’ - she laughed, ambiguously.
“You see, I taught only one term. I
was the spending the summer at Hinton, and
teacher was taken sick the first of
the term, and I taught it for her. But
I'm afraid I did it for fun.”
“I shall rank you among the peda-
gogues, all the same,” the young school-
master declared, gaily. “You’ve taught
a school, and the insincerity of your mo-
tive doesn’t matter. I don't know why
we can’t hare a congenial talk,”
“Perhaps we can,” said Amy, with
pretty laughter and a blush.
They had it.
Malcolm, sitting close to his pretty
ftunt on the bench; listened round-eyed,
interested if not comprehending
Amy wbndered afterward how ever
they drifted from school methods and
monthly examinations to the prettiness of
Gloster s rambles and the the pleasant-
ness of the Clarks’ front porch, where
Amy boarded,and the excellence of their
croquet ground. But they did; and they
were honestly amazed when the clock on
the wall gave its “tehick” for half-past-
five.
They looked at each other in flushed
alarm.
Their acquaintance was an hour and
a half old.
4 T ve hindered you!” Amy cried.
“You’ve got lessons to make out, or
something,” “I
haven t,“ retorted the teacher, with
a bright laugh. “I was going home. I
live beyond the Clarks', and I hope
you’ll let me go with you.”
“Come, Malcolm, dear,” said Amy,
turning don’t aside her smiling face.
“I suppose you will care for my
commencement,” said the schoolmaster, at
the Clarks’ gate. “It’s day after to-mor¬
row evening. I call it commencement in
some irony—its the mere stepping off of
my higher class. Only its something
of a celebration, here, you know,
Everybody comes, and the school-board
and my graduates and I ornament the
pktform put up for the occasion, and it’s
a grand time—for Gloster. But it
wouldn't pay you.”
“But I shall come, of course.” said
Amy, and then blushed for having said
“of course.
But the schoolmaster looked happy.
She went up the path in a smiling daze.
Indeed it had been a congenial talk,
—amazingly congenial!
••Yes, Gloster's pretty quiet,” said
Mr. Clark at the supper table. “I 'spose
commencement, now, ’ll have to last us
rest o’ the summer. “It’ll be worth
seeffi’, though, We’ve got as smart a
teacheras you'll find. Bora and
up in Gloster, too, Phil Oaks was.
Ain’t but twenty-two. He’s puttin’ him-
self through college with his own hands
—or ms own head. Keeps up with his
classes, somehow, right along with his
teaehin*. Goin’ to have a first-rate berth
with his uncle in Marsden when he’s
ready, but he s bound to get educated
FS&ZZZ
ment. You'll enj'y it.”
‘-I shall go,” Amy muttered, buttering
her roll.
_
Commencement was drawing to a close.
The audience, which was large, had
ls ’ anu viSorau^ vigorously f fanned anwuT itself f° r
ueal L v tw ° hours. The graduates had
read their essavs. and the chairman of
the school board had presented their di-
plomas and made a short address.
Now it was the turn of the young mas-
ter, and the audience gave him a little
round of cheers as he rose to speak the
parting words to the graduates. For
Phil Oakes was certain to say something
worth hearing.
So he did. The conventional senti¬
ments about the voyage of life and the
port of success were for once neglected.
The young master's speech, was shurt,
but good; terse, but bright and interest¬
ing and amusing.
Amy looked and listened.
She was Avith her brother and sister-
in-law, and she was rather in doubt as to
the thing she intended doing; but she
did not falter.
How r nice he looked! And his bright
eyes were turned toward her more than
once. And she had determined to do it
if it was eccentric.
She grasped firmly the handsome nose¬
gay of flowers she had carefully arranged,
red and white and yellow roses, with a
border of delicate ferns, and as the young
master bowed, amid sincere applause, she
threw it with vigor directly at him.
There was a general laugh at the novel
feature, and then a spreading “Ah!” of
consternation.
The big bunch had hit the rather riek-
efcy lamp on the organ and knocked it to
the floor. There was the expected crash
Of breaking glass; but worse, there was
a burst of flame; The oil had caught
fire,
Of course there was a panic. Even
men, in their first fright, pushed to¬
ward the door. Women screamed and
children cried.
Everybody was certain that the build¬
ing would burn, and there was a general
rush and hubbub.
But Amy stood still. Her sister-in-law
had grown almost hysterical, and her
brother had borne her out, and called to
Amy to follow,
But she did not. She stood motion¬
less and watched one figure on the plat¬
form.
Phil Oakes had snatched up the carpet
from the temporary platform, and was
valiantly smothering the flames.
Amy waited. She had done it! If he
was badly burned-—if he was smothered
—it would be her fault—hers! And
how differently she had meant it! She
had been foolish, but surely she did hot
deserve that her foolishness should be to
his injury:

so much ? Somehow I didn’t like To
think of your being a widow. I liked
you,” said the schoolmaster, rather
breathlessly. “I liked you right away.
That was a congenial talk, wasn't it?
and I—I admired .you. But I was en-
tirely persuaded that you were a widow
with a young, hopeful, and somehow I
didn't like the idea in the leaet. On my
soul I don't know why,” said the young
man, laughing as he looked down upon
her.
And he didn’t know, though he
blushed as he said it, and though she of
the rose-bouquet had her pretty face
turned away.
But he knew later. The summer was
long, and the Clarks’ front porch and
croquet ground were rich in opportunity.
When the young schoolmaster went back
college in the fall he left a modest
diamond Ting behind him. And when,
two years later, the bright young graduate
went to fill a remunerative position in
Mareden, he took his young wife with
him .—Saturday 3' iqht.

Citron Melon Rind Pickles—Cut the
rind of a citron melon into strips about
the length and width of the linger. Lay
these in strong brine for three days, then
freshen by laying in cold water for an
hour. Dissolve a teaspoonful of powdered
alum in four quarts of water, preparing
enough to cover the rind. Set the pre¬
serving kettle containing the rind and
alum water over the tire where its con¬
tents will reach the scalding point grad¬
ually, and let them remain thus for four
hours. They must not boil. Take out
the rind, and throw it again into very
cold water. Dry the pieces between soft
cloths, pressing gently to extract as much
water as possible. Make a syrup of a
cup of sugar and a half cup of water to
every pound of fruit, adding half an
ounce Of white ginger sliced to every
quart of the pickle. Make this syrup
quite hot, until put in the rind, and let it cook
slowly the pieces are clear. Then
remove them with a perforated spoon;
add to the syrup in the kettle one cup of
vinegar for every pound of sugar, and
cinnamon, cloves and mace to taste. Boil
this syrup until it shows signs of thicken¬
ing, and, having filled glass jars with the
rind, pour the boiling syrup over it, and
close the jars. A pretty touch may be
added to this pickle by cutting the rind
into fanciful shapes, as of leaves, circles,
hearts, etc.—= -Harper's Bazar.

White Men’s Fleah Not Relished Be-
cause It Is Too Salty — Habits of
""
Explorer Lumholtz has just returned
from Queensland, Australia, says the
Pall Mall Gazette. He devoted a year
to the cannibal tribes inhabiting a ter-
ribly wild tract of country a couple of
bnndred miles north of Townsville. Mr.
Lumholtz savs:
“To bo jin with, drn’t imagine that
because the tribes are canmba a they are
therefore loathsome or repulsive in ap-
J avanoe . 0n the cont rarv, many of
tbe men are physicallv fine fellows, and
some G f the women have pleasing feat-
ure s. Then, when you call them canni-
bals you must remember that human
flesh is a very rare luxury, for they only
eat foreign tribes. .Native tribes, I
mean, for the flesh of ^ the white man ia
nasty to their palate. He has a salty
flavor which is very disagreeable to
them.” “Well, “That was lucky for you.”
no; if I were once dead it mat¬
tered little to me how my body waB dis¬
posed of. But being without morals
and absolutely indifierent to human life
they dared would have killed me if they had
for the sake of the tobacco and
the few odds and ends I had with me.
When I joined them at first they were
friendly afraid enough. They were a good bit
of the white man, and for an inch
of tobacco apiece were willing to serve
me. Then they respected what they
called my baby gun—my levolver—
which I fired oil’ every night. But in
time their fears wore off, and there were
several attempts to tomahawk me, but
I was lucky. I had a splendid hunter
with me, who twice tried. I should have
shot him dead, but I was a little loath
to do so, as I was very keen about get¬
ial, ting that specimen of the tiger marsup¬ right
so I tolerated him. Might is
among them. If I had shot a few of
them my dangers would have been con¬
siderably lessened.”
“To resume about the man-eating, I
never saw a cannibal feast, but every
night in their huts the talk was of
women and human fiesh. Those were
the “Not stock subjects different of conversation.” highly cul¬
veiy from
tured Europeans, Mf. Lumholtz?
Women and cooking.” “I was able to
understand them, for I had learnt tho
language, and I gathered that white

a tomahawk—I should tell you that
these artie’es percolate through the
densest bush, and over the wildest
ranges—you can buy a wife. You may
inherit a wife by agreement. You may
get yotir dead brother’s wife, but the
commonest method of acquiring a wife
is to go and help yourself. If you are a
big fellow you wa k into the hut and
take the lady. Then there is a row, and
you have to fight a duel with ft wooden

Catarrh in the Head
Originates In scrofulous taint In tho blood. Henca
tho propsr method by which to cure catarrh Is to
purify the blood. Its many dlsagrecabla symptoms
and the danger of developing luto bronchitis or that
terribly fatal disease, consumption, are entirely re¬
moved by Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which cures catarrh
by purifying the blood; it also tones up tho system
and greatly improves the general health. Try tho
“peculiar medicine.”
“I hare used Hood's Sarsaparilla for catarrh with
very satisfoctor^results. I received more perma¬
nent benefit from It than from any other remedy I
ever tried.”—M. E. Read, of A. Head ft Son,
Wauseon, Ohio.
