GATHERING APPLES. 1 BY HELEN FOH11K8T GllAVKS. LOWERING sun rise had turned into n bright day after all; a brisk October wind was shaking down the red leaves on tho hill, and Lisbcth Lockwood stood at the door, looking thoughtfully around, while Bar- bara, hor sister, It^fWUUG’U boiled tho break fast coileo on the stove "So,” said she, with a curve of her lip, “thisis tho baronial hall—this tum ble-down old farmhouse, with a few acres of stony soil!” “And this," crisply retorted Barbara, "is tho banquet—a baker’s loaf a week old, a pipkin of oatinenl and a pot of Rio colloc 1 But you’d hotter coine iu and partake of it." "Bab,” cried Lisbeth, dinging back her tawny yellow tresses, "I never was so disappointed iu my life!” Bab shrugged hor shoulders. "My opinion oxactly, Tibi” said sho. "Hero, all our school-bves-iong,” tragically uttered Lisbcth, “we’ve heard of our Uncle Hopkins and Hopkins Hall I Wo’vo looked forward to coming liumo to an olegnnt place, to dwoll in luxury. Weill We got a telegram ou gradua tion day that our Uncle Hopkins has -paid tho debt of nature, and wo. hasten to take possession—” "Of our inheritance!” laughod Bab, serving out a blue-edged saucer of coarse stony seres, tho old red horso that wo neither of us know how to drive, and tho cow that wo’ro both afraid of.” “Bab,” cried the oldor sister,what are wo to do?" , < “Tib,” solemnly responded the younger, "I haveu’t the least ldoa.” Lisbcth roilectivoly sipped her coiloo. "If wo hadn’t put on such airs nbout being heiresses,” groaned sho, "and boasted of going home to Hopkins Hall to load a life of luxurious ease, we might have secured one of those nice situations to teach, that Miss Primrose got for the other girls.” “It’s too late for that now!” sighed Bab. Wo’vo got to do something,” said Lisbcth. Yes,” admitted Bab; "but what?” Wo used to rave about art,” said Tib; "but who would buy tho Bort of pictures wo could paint?” Then,” added Bab, "there was your examination composition. Miss Primrose said it showed great talent. If one could take up literature—” I.sent that to three different editors,” interrupted Tib, sardonically smiling. Not one of ’em would have a word to say to it. It’s up stairs in my trunk “Of course,’^a^orod Bab, wiping hor eyes,' "I’vo no reason to supposo—” "No, to-be-sure not,” nodded Tib. ‘That’s one of' foe disabilities of woman. She's got to wait until slio's askod. Well, wait, BafT, dear. But in tho mean time, I’ve an idea that I pickod up iu my before-dinner walk." A monoy-nmking idea?” sahl Bab, her blue eyes shining wistfully through thoir senreely-dry mist of tears. "Yes, a money-making idea. Tlioro are those big sweet apples up in tho or chard dropping down liko a rod rain— nico tablo-nppt<js, too; uot tho poor stuff they pick up to make cider of food to the pigs. Why shouldn’t we put ’em in bar rels—there arolqts in tho barn—and sell ’em at Baker’s Falls? Miss Primroso used to pay fhree dollars a barrel for apples no hotter than thoso.” “Aro there many there, Tib?” “Thousands of 'em I” responded san guine Lisbeth. “Aud picking up npples is easy work—work that women can do. We’ll pack thoujao cwefully that we shall be able to command tho very best raarkot price. They’ro uot common, chenp fruit, but round and rosy and full of rare, sweet juices.- Get your hat, Bab, we’ll go right to work." In the cool, jfrost-touchod air of tho old orchard, gathering tho lovely rod spheres of sweetness into crimson heupB, both girls soon forgot all but thoir occu pation. Thoir oyes shone, their choeks wore rosier than the 'apples, and tho wind blew tho silky tendrils of thoir hair to and fro as if bent on a frolic. "You're never going to climb the troo, Bab?” “I must?”cri<jd Barbara, lightly swing- ing herself into tho forks, “or olso I must lost) those benutios up at tho vory top. Roach _nie tho backet, Tib.

I've just got to run to tho bnrn for another.” Light as Atalanta's self sho sped over tho hilly slopes, down tho bowery lane, across the plank bridge which spannod the little brook, to tho dreary old stone barn behind the cedar troos.

' ■ Bab whistled—u soft little wliistlo of dismay. "Evidently," said she, “we're not calculated for a career. If wo were boys instead of girls, we could lun this farm.” “Oil, if! Dou’t let’s have any more ‘ifs,’" impatiently ciied Tib. "Wbut can wo do? There’s the question.” Bab passed hor pretty pink Unger irouud the blue edge of tho plate before her, witli downcast eyes and just a tiugc of lisiug color. “Well, since you ask the question,” said she, half smiling, "I thiuk one of us could perhaps—marry.” "For a living?” scornfully demaudod Tib. ' "Not that, of course,” said Bab. "Merely in tho course of human events.” "You mean Rolf Woburn?” "I do.” “He's a nice fellow enough,” said Tib, indifferently. "If lie really meaus business!” “Lisbeth!” cried indignant Bab; "how can you Bpeak so coarsely?" "I’m only regarding things from the career point of view,” said provoking Tib. "To-be-sure, the fact that he hus followed us out here might tie construed to mean something. At first lie natu rally supposed us to be the heiresses that we supposed ourselves. But,” with a comprehcmivo wave of her hand, "he has seen Hopkins Hall. He is undeceived by this time. If ever there was a dis interested pasaioa his is one.” "Tib!” Bab’s eyes sparkle t wrathfuily. “Have some more coffee, Barbara? Not a drop? Well, I don’t binine you; it’s poor stuff.” "Tib,” almost sobbed poor Barbara, "if you don’t like Rolf, I’ll give up the idea.” Lisbeth rushed around the edge ol the tnble to give Bab a hug and a kiss. “You darling 1” she cried. “Do you suppose I'm such a jealous monster as sit that'/ I do like Rolf Woburn as well as I cau like any one who wants to take my Bab away from me. But as for tbinkiDR him good enough for you, why, the President's sou wouldn’t bo that l” in' thq breezy tree-top, r task in a sort of day rd these words: I” said a deop, and See that old ifl well-curb beyond?

"You—don’t—tell—mo so!” drawled an unctuous tone, "And tho station— they’ll have to put it pretty near hore, of course?" Woburn laughod lightly. “They can’t put it anywhoro olso," said ho. “Wliow I” whistled the other man. “Iu that case, wo must somehow rnauago to get hold of the old place—” "A Jamil" interrupted Woburn. "Sovn-eity acres!” "Wlikt is it valved atl" “At pretty much nothing,” chuckled Woburn. “It belongs to two women, nnd they’ve no idea what it is worth.

Tho Lockwood girls aro very pretty and agreeablo, and if they choose to draw false interferences, I can’t help it, can I? You don’t need your measuring lino, Hale. I can tell you the number of feet to a uicoty. Just, here, you seo, and—” "*The voices died uway, under tho slope of tho hill. Barbara Lockwood, nestling up among tho boughs like some fair human bird- ling, drew a quick breath. Hor eyes shone like star^ hor cheeks blazed hot scarlet. __ 4# "If wo chouse to draw false infer ences,” sho mgHmred, undor her breath. “But I dou’t thmkfwo shall choose to do anything of thp sort, Tib aud I. Bo wc^ are to ho used to help ou a speculation, aro we? Perhaps thoro may bo two opinions on that subject.” And to the last day of her life, Barbara Lockwood never knew quite how sho drifted down from that tree among tho red apples that covered the short gros3 below. She was there. That was all she could toll. "I’ve brought the basket!” called Tib, from the stile beyond. "Never mind the basket," said Bar bara. “I’ve something else to think of just now.” And two conspirators in the days of the Guelphs and Ghibcllines could not have held their heads closer together than did Bab and Tib on the way back to the old farmhouse that day. When Mr. Woburn sauntered in, on the edge ot the evening, the sisters were packing red apples carefully into a row of barrels on the kitchen floor. He smiled that soft, caressing smile of ids, and proffered assistance at once. "No,” said Bab, iu a business-like way; "we’re just through now. Mr. Adams is to tuk'e them to town for us to morrow. It will probably bo tbe last money we shall ever make out of the Hopkins Farm,’ 1 “Really?” Mr. Woburn lifted his brows. "Wo have sold it," said Bab, “to old Doctor Russoli for twenty thousand dol lars. It Booms that a now railway is to run right through tho old sheep pasture” —she eyed him keenly as sho spoke— and they’ro thinking of locating tho depot at tho north ond of the orchard. Doctor Russoli is a good business man. nnd thinks ho can mako a fair (lnaneial arrangement out of it. And wo arc quite satisfied with the terms. Don’t, look so amazed, Mr. Woburn. You seo you were mistaken when you believod that you could got this place for ‘pretty much nothing’ becauso it bolongcd to two wo men who didn't know what it was worth.” Eh?” gasped poor Woburn, in soro amazement. Yes,”wickedly'addcd Tib; “and now tho best thing you can do is to go back to Miss Vatcmnr, whomever sho may be, and tell her thnt tho Lockwood girls aro uot in any dangor of drawing falso in ferences from your agreeablo attentions. Ashnllow knave, Mr. Woburn, i3 the silliest, sort of a knave. Oh, no ex planations, ploaso! Wo wish you n vory good ovening I” Aud so Rolf Woburn’s great railway land speculation foil through, and Bah Lockwood escaped heartirco. "And if we’re uot heiresses, nftor ail,” said cheerful Tib, "wo’ro independent, and that.’B quite as good.”—Saturday Night. Strango Eyes of Bees. Tho directness of tho bee’s flight is proverbial. Tho shortoBt distance bo twcon nny two given points is callod a bco-lino. Many obsorvera think that tho immouso eyes with which tho insect is furnished greatly assist,if they do not en tirely account for, tho arrowy straight ness of its passage through tho air. Evory bee.has two kinds of eyes, tho two large compound ones, looking liko hemispheres, on either side, and the three simple ones which crown tho top of tho head. Each compound oyo is composed of 3500 facets—that is to say, an object is reflected 3500 times on its surface. Every oco of thoso focots is tho baso of a hexagonal pyramid, whose apex Is fitted to the head. Each pyra mid may bo termod an eyo, for each has its Own iris and optic norve. Ilow thoso insects manago this mar volous number of oyos is not known. They aro immovable, but mobility is un necessary becauso the range of visioni afforded by tho position and tho number 1 of tho facets. They have no HOb, but are protected from dust and injury by rows of hairs growing along the linos at the junction of tho facets. Tho simple oyos ora suppose to have boon given tho bee to enable it to aoe abovo its head when intent upon gathering honey from tho cups of flowers. Probably this may be ono reason, but it is likely there aro other uses for them not yet ascertained. A bee flios much in tho game way as a pigeon—that is to say, it first takes an upward spiral flight into the air, and then darts straight for the object in view. Now an oxperi- mentor on insect nature covered a boos simple eye with paint and sent it info tho air; instead of darting straight oil after rising, it continued to ascend. Apparently, theu, thoso eyes aro used iri some measure to direct the flight,—Poar- son’s Weekly. BILL ARP’S LETTER. 3c And Tells of Sights Which He Savr When n Hoy. Inventions of tho Hour.

Out Continent’* Many Names. In these quadro-centennial day3 it is worth while to recall tho fact that the continent now named America has gone at ono tirno or another by a great many names. The notion that Columbus held of finding a westward passage to India by way of the Atlantic is recorded by tbe name New India and India Occi dental, found upon old maps as indicat ing the land discovered by Columbus. America Mexicans was an old uarao of North America, os America Peruviana was of South America. Then Brazil was for a time tho uame applied to the Southern continent. Finally the origin of tbe name America has been gravely disputed, though the weight of testimony leaves practically no doubt that it comes from the Christian name of Amerigo Vespucci. Borne early authorities, however, gravely contended that tho name came from the Peruvian word Amaru, meaning 1 he sacred symbol of tbe cross, made of u serpent and a stick, and the suflix ca, meaning country. Thus derived, America moans tho laud of the holy ani mal.—New York Advertiser, Rhakospoaro aays “there aro more things In heaven amt earth than aro dreamed of In onr philosophy." Tho fall of meteors on Wodnes- diiy night tvan quite a wonder to tho generation and mado the young poople serious and solemn. Tornadoes and Hurt liquate s nnd comets and meteors aro always alarming, for tlioy bring homo to us our utter holplcssuoss under tho mighty hand of God. From 8 o’clock until nonr midnight wo watched these meteors, Part of tiio time we were standing out in the freezing air, hut most of tho tirno wo looked through tho uncurtained windows, ond there was hardly a moment that, tlioy wore not Been somowhorn in the heavens. I hnpod for an other visitation liko that of 1883, which I dis- tinotly remember, for my father awaked me and dressed mo hurriedly and we all Rtood in tho pinz/.a ami watcliod and wondered for an hour or inoro. They Reeinod sure enough liko falling Btars and camo down in myriads ss gently as snowflakes. They nearly tonohed the earth before they wont out, and I remomber hunting nround in tho potato patch noxt morn ing for some sign of them, but found none. If tliero was any heat in their glittering light there was no sign of it in tho treo tops among tho leaves. I remember that Anut Miuty, our good old cook, prayed and oxhorted long and loud, and a white woman across the street screamed out: “Como, Lord Jesus; take me, Lord Josus. God, save us; God, forgive us," and Bho was kneeling on tho door with hor hands stretched tip towards heaven. I remember that Mrs. tester, the widowed mother of onr late attorooy general, livod very near us nnd came over to our house, stooping as sho oamo for fear tho stara would touch her. I remomber that my father was calm aud serene and gave us all aeHuranoo that thero was no danger, for he waa a well rend nmn and know that such phonomana had happened several times before and did no harm. Hevoral times within tho past century there had been a fall of meteors on tho same date, tho 18th of Novem ber, but none so brilliant or that camo so near tho earth. It was in August 1854 that wo woro awakened about 2o’olook ono night by tho crowing of tho cooks for daybreak nnd our nogroca got up and fed tho stock anil prepared to go to the field when our attention was attracted to tho clock ami on going out to seo what was the matter wo found It ns bright ns day and llio aurora borealis was flashing a hi llliatit light that illuminated tho heavens and tho eartii. Huoh things aro al ways alarming to the timid and the ignorant. I heard Professor Prootor, the arost astronomar, dolivi r threo lectures at Lako Woir a few years ago and ho lifted me up on thought among tho starry hoavens and made us roailzo our own nHignillcanco ss ho approaohod tho very con iines of otornity nnd told us of things wo had never dreamed of. Ho was a groat and good man and I loved him ns muoh for his humility ss his learning. Ono night he lectured on the birth andwgrowth and maturity and decay of a world, and ho proved by tho most convincing nrgninont that this world had long since passed its maturity and was in tho deolinonnd that the scriptures would bo fulfilled nnd this earth he burned up and pass out of existence. He said that worlds had passed away and that worlds Imd oomo into existence since tho Christian ora nnd thnt, comets had appeared that had no record in tho past—that creation was uot finished hut was changing and thia iittlo world of ours vbb but a speck in tho universo. Ho said that f a straight lino from the eye was drawn nnd extondod in any direotion ft would sooner or lator he stopped by a heavenly body. Wo oan onjoy this and bo amazed but whon a oyciono oomes along or an earthquake begins to rock tho Iittlo world about, there 1b no phil osophy Hint can make ns calm and serene. Wo dou’t understand Iheso systems of nature nor can wo fortify against them. I never saw a man or woman who was not superstitious about ghosts and it is because of tuo mystery that gangs around tlio dead—where are the spirits? Where liod Hamuel been whon tho witch of Endor oillod his spirit up—what kind of virtue was in the hones of Elijah that brought to life the dead man who was buried in his tomb? What kind of spirits were roving about distress ing good pooplu until thoy were sent into the swines and the Bwino into the soa? If wo knew where wo were going wo could bo less troubled no matter how torrihlo our fate. It is the mystery that, hangs around that undiscover ed country from whioh no travelor returns, wish that wo all had llio faitli of tho little boy that I know whose mother aHked him whore ho thought heaven was and replied promptly, “why, it’s over at grandma’s houBe." “Ah! no, 1 she said, “heaven isn’t there at all. What made you think that?" “Well, it isn’t more than about a mile from there,” he Baid. Grandma was .enough heaven for him. This seems to bo an off year anyhow. A year of surprises- Just a few weeks ago and every thing looked lovoly for tho republicans nnd dis tressing to tho farmers but Mr. Oolvoland bent ,iit tho administration and all its patronago to the surpiiso of even tho most snnguino demo crats, Bight on top of this cotpon Jumped from 7 to t) cents and the Now England manufactur ers of the groat staple raised tho wages of thoir cqiorativos 7 per cent. Tho republican party tried before the election to make tho country believe that wages had already been raised un der tho McKinley bill, hilt these operatives knew it was a lie. Mr. Cleveland’s election or some thing lias raised them and tho capitalists seem to havo received new confidonco In tile stability of monotary affairs. Htncks havo advanced and everything lo ikB lovely. And now comes shooting etars and the aurora borealis and. a comet nnd I reckon Governor Ncrthon will got up an appropriation for tho world's fair and tho legislature will buy tho Soldiers' II llio and we wlUsoou bs building mono railways all oyer tho south and our folks have bust-a tho people's party and driven politics out of the alliance and torn up tho Ocala platform and retired Weaver and Mrs. Lease and everything lookB lovely nnd the goose hangs high.

Properly speaking, a tea biscuit stiiiiihl not be more Ilian ft,wo inches in diameter and proportionately thick whon baked. This gives a deli cate, moist, flaky biscuit which will bo cooked through before the outside crust has become lmrcl or over brown. Many of tho mufibi-tiiis are too large to cook thoroughly through before tho crust hardens. In such a case it, is a good plan to dampen Die upper (trust wltilo the muffins are hot by laying a wot doth over them and covering it. with a dry chilli. Cookies, on tho other hand, may well be of liberal diameter, as they are rolled out so thin Hint thoir size does not prevent their cooking through, Tho season of apples is at its height, and winter apples arc stored away for cold weather. The best way to keep choice apples is to wrap them singly in papers and put them in a light barrel in a cool, dry place till they are needed. Greenings nnd other hardy winter apples keep well enough in barrels without being wrapped up separately, but all barrels, except the ono you are using out of, should be beaded up closely, and it is well enough to keep a tight, movable cover over the ono from which you aro taking your daily supply. No fruit Iorcs flavor f rom being carelessly handled more quickly than apples. Apples which linvo been well stored retain thoir flavor throughout tho winter, but those which have liccti allowed to lie nliotit with de caying specimens, or aro stored loosely in barrels, cither lose thoir flavor ornequire n rank taste from the conditions around them. There are few better [lies than the fa miliar apple-pie, whon it is properly baked, flavored and served; yet a more tasteless and unwholesome compound is seldom found on our tables than this fa miliar disli when it lias been carelessly put together and improperly baked. Tho crust of the apple-pio should be of the dauticst pastry, but whatever it is it should bo browned. The pale apple-pie, which speaks of nightmares, is a tiling to lie avoided by all people who have not the digestive powers of an oBtrioh. it requires fifty minutes in a quick oven to bake an apple-pie. It should bo baked on a tin plato or a pinto of somo metal which will conduct tho heat properly so that the pie will be browned—never in an earthen pie-plate. Tho apples should he juicy aud well flavored. They should bo sliced thin, and lumped high in tho centre of tho pic, in order that they may lie cooked through and tho juice will not run out at tho ctlges. The upper crust must lie luid on lightly, if you wisli to sweeten and season your pie after it is cooked, as all the old-fashioned housekeepers did. No apple pie baked with the sugar iu it is so delicious as ono sweetened afterward by removing the crust and adding sugar, a very little butter, and nutmeg or cinna mon as you wish. French and German cooks use cinnamon, but the Now Eng land apple pie is usually flavored with nutmeg. Origin of Turkey’s Nickname. The name Sublime Porto or Ottoman Porto given to the Turkish Government is derived from the nnciont Orieutal etts tom of making the gates of cities and of kings’ palaces places of assembly iu con nection with tho affairs of government and of tho administration of justice. Tho Turks found the term in common use among the Byzantines some time pro vious to thoir establishment of Constan tine, and adopted it on the organization of their Empire. The use among Eu rapean nations of tbe French term Sub lime Porte (lofty gate) is accounted for by the fact that Frenoli is the language of European diplomacy.—[Detroit Free V'1 f # ♦ 1 he JMiller * Ik Carriage and Harness Co.
