A STILL HUNT.
How the Captain Went Out Deer Stalking—
SIM on the Track.
T rayther think I’ll try a atill hunt tomor-
tew, ’ laid Captain Sterne ae we imokod onr
pipes on toe breed plana one star-lit night,
.and ef yonll promise to keep right quiet,yon
kin go along too.”
I eagerly promised implicit obedience to my
commander, and ley down to dream of juicy
venison ateaks and brown coffee.
I must havo been charmed by my ploaunt
dreamt, for I was awakend bya rude shako
and toe captain called ont,
“£»y, git up, git up. iwo
mnat git some breckna an’ git ont o' here.
Hits nearly day, now. and wo moat boost in
toe woods afore inn np.”
I arosa and hurriedly dressed myself, and
ire the time the captain had cleaned ont hia
old long barreled rifle, I wao ready for the
early breakfast.
A a we ale, a boy armed with en ironladel
and a pound bar of lead, was "running” bni-
Ieto into a mould. I watched tola part of tho
proceeding with mneh intoreat. All thebnl-
lcta that were not perfectly round wore ro-
melted and run into the
mould again, . until there were
two donm, “ninety to the ponnd” riflo
belli lying tuere glistening in the* firelight.
The necke were oat eqwxre off by preaalng in
the ctecntar inner edge* of tho mould, sharp
ened for that purpose, and great care was tak
en that toe center of gravity waa not thrown
into either aide of the bell, “for,” said the cep-
tain, “ef they haint round they'll curve one
rifle or tother an’ eauae yon to miss a good
ihot afore you know it. Some folks'll lay it
to toe gnn, some’ll cuss the powder and
•ome’ll cues toe petehln’, bat hits mot' often
a cue-aided bail.’’
Break that over, the captain loaded hia rifle
carefully. I noticed that he placed toe ball in
toe flat palm of hit hand and poured tho flue
powder on it until it was covered. He then
removed the ball and dotted every grain
carefully into the niusilo of hia
gun. and then placed a piece
of strong white doth over too masala, then
fitted toe ball into the gun and pressed It
down until it was even with the top of tho
morale, end then he cat thopatchlngsmoothly
off, which left the ball nleely enveloped in the
patch. With one pneh of the ramrod the ball
was pressed home, end then the tnbe waa
primed with a few grains of powder, tho cap
pot on, and the job area eomploto.
“Don’t let no doge foliar ne,” cried the hunt
er, as we stopped cut Into tho pale light of the
early dawn, and began our tramp through tho
dewy gram.
“At tola season of too year,” began tne cap
tain, “toe deer feed on the yonng born. Ther
main' feadin’ time le et toe ftaat dryin’ of the
dew, a’tor which they generly lays down to
reattend then git np and feed on toe aeeon’
dryin’ o’ the dew. You ace, the dew fust dries
nigh onto half an hour by son, bat long ’twlxt
eight in’ nine o'clock tu groan’ gits warm,
and the bottom dew dries. But they aire jest
■a shore to feed on toe south moon as the
moon risd*.’’
Wo passed through a piece of level scrub
land, croaaed a muddy slough end struck an
oak ridge where toe woods had been burned.
So recent was the banting that a few old logs
and atnmpa were still smoldering.
Bat the rreen grmse had sprung up, and the
earth looked like a green wheatneld. In
the early morning, with too ana Just rising
over toe ridge, the scene was won
derfully beautiful. Bach tender ahoot waa
laden with dew. and diamond and emerald
were strangely blended. “Ah-hl” whispered
the captain, as he dropped on hie knees.
“Look younder. Do you aee ’em? Hit's an
ole doe an' two ycariini, Squat right down
here an’ lemmo toe of I can’t git a shot."
I did aa directed, and with a beating heart
I watched the timid ereatarca aa they gam
boled and frisked about, nibbling at a tender
sprout, chasing each other around in a clrclo,
and then stopping abort, raising toaJr heads
and anlffllng the air for an approaching enemy
ao careful were they that one waa forever
watching. This made the job ell the more
difficult, aa too hnntor had to take advantage
of trees, logs, clumps of bushes and other on
loots to got within gunshot of the wary game.
I remembered a peculiarity that Captain
Stems had told mo of. If yon watch tho
deer’s tall you need not trouble about hia
head, for whenever he ia going to raise his
head he will switch or wiggle hie tall certain,
and he never does toe latter act natal he is
coldc to raise hit head.
So I watched the deer and whenever I saw
a tail wiggle I glanced toward] the hnntor
who wonldinvarlablo crouch down et the sig
nal.
Nearer and nearer approached the hunter,
and I felt that tbe chato waa a fore gone con
clusion, when suddenly the two amaller deer
•coiled themselves np and lay plnmp down by
a big log.
Tho older one began flooding around,end look-
rig toward the hunter I Jtaw that
to waa in big luck, for ho
had a huge clay root
directly betwoen himaelf and the nnanapeoting
game. Lightly he crept along, careful not to
break a twig or strike a burned buab, until he
reached the great snaggy clay root.
Blowly raising hit head he peered Over the
ambnab, and then cautiously brought tho long
barrel to a position whence he had a good net.
I was all a-tramble with excitement, end
aught myself holding my breath.
“Bang!" went the rifle.

fell—recovered—attempted a tap—fell
on her knees, and waa soon dead.
The two younger ones went apeeding away
like the wind, end their long, white, allken
tails were soon lost in the distance.
I was In a dead ran for the game, but the
hunter baited me.
“Se-ey, toar! Wait till I load my gun, won’t
yon?"
“It may get away,” I cried.
“No danger o’ that I al’us make It a point
not to leave my poslah ’till I load my gnn, of

By this time he bad wiped toe barrel clean,

I walked perhaps a mile, when peering
through an opening in the bushes I saw what
looked like a deer’s head, poked ont above
the bathes. The more I looked at it the more
I became convinced, and at last I could see
that it waa the toll antlered head of a lino
old buck. I was atill gaaing
at it, uncertain what to do, whon
something attracted i my attention, and I
happened to glanoc toward the loft, and there
was Captain 8terne, creeping eautionsly for
ward, with hix gaze fixed on tho deer.
I was convinced now, and seeing that ha
was nnconsdont of my presence, ana a good
deal nearer the game than I was, I crouched
behind a pile of brush and waited for develop
ment!.
Slowly and stealthily ho moved forward.
Once ho struck a scrub palmetto with a crash
and dropped down in the bushes. I expected
to see the old buck move but he seemed to be
off bis guard, and toe hunter moved forward
still more carefully.
After awhile he got close enough and, taking
caretol aim, ho blazed away- The deer did
not movo, and I saw him loading hia gnn. In
a few moments ho moved forward again. Ad

Tho hunter seemed bewildered. It was a
doer, sure, bnt why did it not move? Hur
riedly reloading, ho crept up within fifty
J ards of too deer, and taking a long,
elibeiato aim, “bang!” went tho
riflo a third time. Something flow off like
a piece of bark, and toe hunter sprang to his
feet, and ahadlng hta eyes with hia hand, ho
took a long look at the deer. Then he loaded
hie gnn, and walked etraight np to the deer.
when he got within thirty yards of It, ho
stopped, dropped hit gnn, and began to fan
himself with hie bet. Then placing hie arms
a klmbo, he regarded the deer a moment, then
looked all around, grabbed np his gnn,
slouched hit bet over his brow, and walked
rapidly away in the direction where I waa
waiting in open mouthed
unaccountable conduct.

“Hello, Cep’n,” said I; he started nervouly.
“What waa the matter with the door?”
“Hits all Sam Dawson’s dinged foolishness.
The cursed reeceljest done It to fool me, an’
I’ll thrush ’lm in an inch of hia life when I
meet him."
“What did ho have to do with it?” I asked,
for my curiosity was tolly excited.
“Why, the infernal fool wont an’ klllod tho

THE NEW NAHA
By George McDonald, LL. D„ England.
In Bov. II., 17, tho Lord stye: “To Mm that
overeometo I will giro a white atone, and in
the stone a new name written, which no man
knoweth saving he that recelvcth it.” The
giving of the wMte atone with the new name
tethe communication of what God tMnka
about the man to the man. It te the Divine
Judgment, the solemn holy doem ef the right
eous man, the “Como, toon blessed," spoken
to tho Indlridnel.
In order to see this, we most first understand
what to tbe Idea of a name—that te, what te
tbe perfect notion of a name. For, seeing that
the mystical energy of e holy mind here speaks
of God aa giving something, we most under
stand that the essential thing, and not any of
its accidents or Imitation* te Intended.
A name of tbe ordinary kind In thte world
has nothing essentia! in ft. It te but a label
by which one roan and a scrap of his external
history may lie known from another man and a
icrap of his history. Tho only names which
have significance are those which the popular
judgment or prejudice or humor bettows,
elthir for ridicule or honor, upon a few eat of
the many. Each of thase te founded upon some
external characteristic of the man, upon some
predominant peculiarity of temper, some ex
cellence or tho reverse of character, or some
thing which be does or has dons well or ill
enough, or, at least, singularly enough, to
wnom ree nau in ins tnongne wnen no
to make toe child, and whom He kept
thought through the long process of c
that went to realise toe idea. To toll th
render him, in toe eyas of too people, worthy
of such distinction from other men. As flsr as
they go, these are real names, tor, In some poor
measure, they express Individuality.
The true name is one which expresses the
character, toe nature, toe being, toe meaning
of the peraon who bears it. It te toe nua’s
own symbol—hia soul's picture, in a word,—
the sign which belongs to him and to no one
else. Who can give a man this, hte own name ?
God alone. For no one but God see* what too
man is, or even, seeing what he is, conld ex
press in a name-word the cum and harmony of
what he sees To whom te thte name given ?
when he bae overcome. Does God toon not
knowwhataman te going to become? Ae
surely as He sees the oak which He nut there
lying in tbe heart of toe acorn, why then
does He wait till too man haa become by over
coming ere He settles what hte namo shall be ?
He doe* not wait; Ho knows hte name from
tbe first. Bnt as—although repentanco comes
because God pardons—yet the man become*
aware of too pardon only in too repentance;
so it is only when tho man haa become hte
name tost God give* him too stone with tho
name open it, for then first can he ondetsUnd
what hte name signifies. It te the bloesom, to*
S rfoctlon, tbe completion, that determines
c name; and God foresees that from toe first;
because He made it ao; but the tree of the soul,
before its blossom comes, cannot understand
what blossom it te to boar, and oonld not know
what too word meant, which is representing
its own unsrrived completeness, named Itself.
Such a name cannot be given until the men te
the name.
God’a name for a man mnst then he the ex
pression in a mystical word—a word of that
language wMch all who havo overcoma under
stand—of Hte own idea of the man, that being
whom He had in Hte thought whon Ho began
‘ ' Ho kept in Ilte
leeas of erection
To toll tho name
Is to sm] tho snocese—to say, “In theo also I
am well pleased."
Bnt we ere still in the region oi symbol. For
supposing that each * form were actually ob
served between Ood and him that overeometo,
it would bo no leas a symbol—only an acted
one. We mnat therefore look deeper etill for
toe fnineae of its meaning. Up to thte point
littlo haa been said to justify our expectations
of discovery in too text. Let us, I ssy, look
deeper, wo shall not look long before wo And
toattoemyeUoCTmbol haa for It* center of
elgnlflctnco the tact of the personal individual
relation of every man to hte God. That every
man has affaire, and tooae hte first affairs, with,
God, stands to too reason of every man who
a asocial os any meaning ot feeling with the
words, “Maker,” “Father,” “Ood.” Wore wo
hut children of a day, with tho undantandlng
that aomo one bad given ne that one holiday,
there would boeomething to be thought, to bo
felt, to bo done, because we know it. For
then our nature would be according to onr
fists, and wo oonld worship and dlo. But it
would be only toe praise of the doad. not the
pretaof the living, for death would bo the
deepest, the lasting, the overcoming. Wo
should havo come out of nothlngnea, not out
of God. Ho could only be onr Uakor, not our
Father, onr Origin. But now wo know that
God cannot bo too God of toe dead—mutt be
toe God of the living, intsmueh as to know
tost he died, would reeeto the heart of worship,
and we could not say “Onr God,” or (sol Him
worthy of inch worship ss wo conld render.
To him who offers nnto thte God of the living
his own self of sacrifice, to him that over-
cometo, him who haa brought hte Individual
life hack to its source, who knows that ho is
ono of God’s children, thte ono of tho Father’s
making, ha giveto the white stono. To him
