A SONO OF HOPE.
No tears, dear, if the black skies frown—
Hope for the best.
No storm the rainbow’s smile can down—
Hope for the best.
There is a light somewhere. Some day,
From east to west
Will shine a deathless morning’s ray;
Hope for the best.
Old proverb! Yes, but cheering—swoot—
Divinely blest;
Even with the sharp thorn around your feet
Hope for the best.
What hope in sighing? Time still flies
From life’s unrest:
Tears blur the blue in God's sweet skies,
Hope for the be st.
And, old or new. still sing the song
That life loves best;
One melody a whole lifo long—
Hope for the best.

the Seven Sleepers, when uncle has
just laid down for his nap 1 I declare,
I’ve no patience with that child?”
“It’s on an errand he’s come this
time, Miss Hannah," said Thyrza, the
help. “At least that’s what he says,
There ain’t no believin’ Pinkton’s boy,
though.”
Outsido in the angry red twilight,
tho March wind was howling like some
infuriate demon, rocking the bare tree
tops to and fro and rattiing tho loose
window shutters against the side of
the house, while under the hill the
breakers of Lone Bay flung themselves
like miniature parks of artillery along
tho rock bound shore.
Hannah shuddered as she stopped
out on to tho porch and confronted a
dirtv, red-haired little varlet,
“What is it, Hezekiah?” said she,
sharply. “Now you can’t be hungry,
and I know you are not cold, for you
are wearing uncle’s old overcoat. I
should like to know what sends you
here now.”
“Please, miss,” said Hezekiah, “It
tain’t I; it bees old Mrs. Kesley.”
“Airs. Kesley again?” said Hannah,
with a gesture of despair. “Why, it
wns only yesterday that undo was
there. ”
“It bees old Mrs. Kesley,” stolidly
repeated Hezekiah. “She bo in a
mortial hurry. Her havo got mortial
bu 1 pain in her bones.”
f 'Pshaw 1” said Hannah, more to her
^ self than to Hezekiah. who added:
ner told I to run ; then I runned,
I did, an’ tho wind ’most blow’d I off
the hill.”
“Poof child!” said Hannah,
“Thyrza, give him a bowl of tea and
a slice of mngcr <>^i<Si5glWu8turb hrn.»ii B ut all the
..‘.JfPfrrall n uncle.
He night, a, t u ibis morn
lug he had to drivo over to Castle
Peak, and ho has only just laid him
self down for a nap. I’ll take a bag
of hops and a little quinine and some
aconite, and drive over myself, with
old Blaokie, in the gig.”
“But how will Mrs. Kesley like it?”
said Thyrza, with a broad smile.
“Oh, she won’t care!”said Hannah.
“And besides, she can’t holp herself,
I shall tell her that uncle sent me.”
And with haste and speed tho doc
tor’s niece bundled herself into a black
and green shepherd-plaid shawl and a
hood from which her plump, dimpled
face looked out like a pink trailing
arbutus from a snow drift.
“Come, Thyrza—come, Hezekiah!”
she said. “Light the lantern and come
along; we’ll harness up ourselves,
Uncle must not bo disturbed.”
Hannah Digby was one of those
bright, spirited girls who understood
a little of everything. She led out
old Blackie and skillfully harnessed
him while Thyrza held the lantern,
and the half-witted boy lent ready
assistance with girths and buckles,
and sho was soon on her way to Mrs.
Kesley’s house, in the face of the how
ling Alarch wind. ail
“I suppose doctors havo such
patients,” she said to herself. “But

“Ob, what shall I do?” exclaimed j
poor Hannah, clasping her hands. 1
“And I have been scolding him like

“Eh?” said Mrs. Kesley, upon whom “It’si '
tho classic allusion was lost,

I don’t remember that Larry over had
the measles as a child.”
“What will he think?”said Hannah,
despairingly. i !”
“La, he don’t sense a word you say
said the old lady. '-.“lie’s as crazy as

Hannah went up .to the side of the

“Hold the candle, Mrs.
said she, as she laid her light, cool
hand on the fevered brow and felt the
bounding puhjo. V
“Why, yon don’t know nothin’ of
doctorin’, do you?” said Mrs. Kesley,
in amazement.
“Don’t I, though?” said Hannah,
who had, in very truth, gleaned many
a pathological experience among her
uncle’s patients. jj,. “ThisI is nothing
more than a heavy cold, Mrs. lvesley,
accompanied with a slight sympathetic
fever.”
“La!” said the old lady, again.
“Let his feet bo soaked in hot mas
tard-water, and kept warm by waier
jugs,” said Hannah authoritatively.
“Give him nine drops of the contents
of this vial once in two hours. Use
every effort to throw him into a pro
fuse perspiration.
“Folks used to steam themselves
over a tea kettle when I was a gal,”
said Mrs. Kesley.
“Ah!” said Hannah.’b “That was
the old system."
“La!” again ropcatod Mrs. Kesley.
“But,” calmly added Hannah, “wo
have improved upon all that now.
You’ll be sure and not forget the mint¬
drops, Mrs. Kesley. The pulse is fre
quent, but not alarmingly so. I think
I should recommend cold-water baud
ages around the throat and on tho
forehead. And be sure that he is kept
very warm. How strangely he looks
at me! You are quite sure, Mrs. Kes
ley, that he is delirious ?”
“As crazy as a croton-bug! ra¬
peated Mrs. Kesley, rather at a loss
for a comparison and remembering a
peculiar variety of insect which she
bad known as a New York house
keeper thirty years ago.
“Now he is shutting his eyes again,
said Hannah, passing her hand with
light, magnetic touches over his brow,
“Poor fellow?” i
“P’raps,” suggested Mrs. Kesley,
“I’d better get the big shears and cut
off his hair. It’s plaguey thick ; and
if his head has got to bo kept cold—”
“Oh, no, I wouldn’t do that!” said
Hannah. “It’s such soft, curly hair !
Let it remain.” SS&j-'
And she applied horselt to mcasur
ing out sundry camphor-smelling pow
ders from a pocket-ease.
“I will call early in tho morning,”
said she, whon tho powders wore all
measured out.
“La!” said Mrs. Kesley.
Hannah Digby drove home, silently
and meditatively, old Blackie picking
his slow way along '.the dreary road,
while the wind shrieked and the pines
j rustled mysteriously on either side of
the highway.
“X™ * have got myself into a pret
ty scrape, said she, addressing old
Blackie’s ears. “Shall I tell Uncle
Zalman, or shan’t I? Will he scold,
or won’t he? After a!!, the man has
only got a touch of influenza. If
congestion set in— Oh, pshaw, it
won’t! If there is any danger of
jmeam onia— But tho man breathes
as regularly os a pair of bellows. No,
I’ll risk it. I’ve begun tho caso, and
I’ll carry it through.”
? While Larry Neville, smiling to
himself in the firelight, thought:
pretty she was 1 —and how
velvety and cool her hand felt on my
forehead! Oh, yes, I’ll take all tho
powders botweeu hero and the Maine
line if she says so!”
The noxt morning the patient was
decidedly improved. Ho was sitting
up in the big rocking-chair, in front
of the fire, while Piukton’s boy piled
on more logs, and shuffled back and
forth on errands for Airs. Kesley.
“Hero she comes! ’ said Pinkton’s
boy, staring out of tho window.
“Who comes?” Larry asked.
“The doctor-young-oman, > said
Pinkton’s boy. “Will I tell her you’ve
got well and don’t want she no more?’
But Larry only frowned at him.
“Open the door for her, you young
scamp! said he.
Miss Digby was as gooci ns ner word.
She conducted the case triumphantly
through to its end.
It is just possible that Air. Neville
his convalescence uuneces
*»rily, but that is neither here nor
there.

“So Larry is going Kesley. homo “Well, to-mor- I
row,” said Mrs.
declare I shall miss the boy!”
»»<* Hannah, demurely. ,
“But he’s coming back again in May, j
he says.” “
“What for?” said Mrs Kesley.
“To marry me,” said Hannan.
“La!’ said the old lady. I
“Wc ha.l a little explanation, Yon ; I

Origin of Some ot the Dust,
Dust is to a largo extent a product
of human activity. In houses and
workshops, on tho highways anil in
tho streets, everywhere there is went
and tear of things, and tho product is
always dust. Tho weariugnnd cleans¬
ing of our clothing is continually
breaking up its fibres into minute par¬
ticles, and tho friction of clothing oil
the eltin carries nivny the scales of tho
epidermis, which are constantly being
shed and renewed.
Every contact of human feet,
horses’ hoofs and tho wheels of vehi¬
cles with paving and road materials
wears away particles of irou and
stones. Tho effects of the weather
and tho alternations of cold and boat
disintegrate all oxposod surfaces. To
these particles, which form tho dust
invariably presout iu dwellings and
in tho streets, there must bo added
the innumeinblo minute colls of vege¬
table origin incessantly floating iu the
air, and on a complete viow the dust
produced by tho disintegration of
meteors by contact with our atmos¬
phere must also bo mentioned.
Dust accordingly ceusists of portions
of oil substances, organic and inor¬
ganic, which decay by natural pro¬
cesses, and are reduced to powdor by
any means whatever. Few of its
eonsitueiits can bo recognized by the
naked eye. The mioroseopo olouo can
j detect oially th the nature of th of jUptest jfcny, and impor¬ espe
ose
tance.—AH the Y< Round.
A Ci'vij^ Hiding Place.
Alany peoplo havo curious liiding
places iu which they keep their sav¬
ings, but there eouhl hardly be u
moro ingcuiouis or curious “savings
bank” than which recontly came to
light in Bucks County. An old wo¬
man who lived alone in a little cot¬
tage ot ltiegoisvillo was known to havo
amassed considerable wealth, aud it
was also known that sho had no faith
in tho established banks ouil sav¬
ing funds. But where tho old
woman kept her money was
a mystery, until sho camo to dio a few
days ago. Thou a thorough search
was made of tho promises, without dis¬
closing the hiding place. Finally,
when the body was being prepared for
burial, a porous plaster on tho old
woman’s side wns noticed, which did
not 1 io as close to tno skin as such
plasters generally do. When the
piaster was removed a number of gov¬
ernment bonds, representing tho old
woman’s entire fortune, whero found
between it and tho skin.—Philadel¬
