It is only a plain old Bible, But lay it away with care For my mother used to read it, Each verse so sweet with a prayer. Your new one may be more perfect, Revised by learned of the age, But give me my hallowed treasure, With the self-same words on each page, That in childhood's hours fell sweetly Upon my listening ear, Of God and His wondrous mercy Through many a weary year It has stood the test of the scoffer, And where is the heart, to-day; That will turn to the new edition, And banish the old away? Why, the prayer that my mother taught me, If a change in the words was made, rwould jar on the rhymth of memory, And its mighty power would fade. You may turn in your search for knowledge And say that the new is best For me, I can only wonder That man should have made this test. So give me my plain old Bible, That I read when I was a child, 'Tis the one that my mother treasured, And never was saint more mild. I cannot turn frow its verses, To words that are cold, estranged; No, give me my grand old Bible, With never a letter changed. :tittte tor. fIIRLES MAIRSIIILL A Story with a MAoral. -0 Young Charles Marshall was spending the summer vacation with his college chum, Fred Dav enport. The Marshalls who lived in an adjoining State, were people in~ quito moderate circumstances, and Charles had ieen brought up to practice pretty strict economy. The elegant living and lavish hospitality he found at the fine Davenport residence was a strik ing novelty to him. He enjoyed it all exceedingly, and was greatly flattered by the polite and considerate attention he received, although he did not approve of some of the ways of the household, which were unfa miliar to him. Sometimes he would indulge in satirical com men ts, whbich he doubtless thought to be very smart, but which were, in reality, unbecoming and rude. One damp, rainy day, Miss Mar garet, his chum's sister, stood by the open library fire cutting into narrow strips a letter she had tat morning received and had just read. She then deftly twisted them in to paper-lighters, placing them one by one as they were finished into a quaint old green porcelain jar that stood on the carved mantel. You ng Marshall at the time was lounging in an easy-chair near by, watching the fair girl with an amused look as she rapidly wound the dainty spirals. At length he spoke up in a sarcastic tone of voice, 'What queer ideas of econ omy you jpeople seem to have. Now, when matches cost less than two cents a hundred, I am unable to appreciate the economy of saving them by devoting valua ble time in making paper-lighters.' 'I thought I bad explained to you once,' and Margaret laughed, pleasantly, 'that we do not use pa per- lighbters as a matter of eonomy at all, although the fact that they save matches is not to be lost sight of. It is a matter of taste entirely. Thbe smoke of a lucifer match of any kind, even parlor matches, is disagreeable and is al most sure to set some of us off coughing or sneezing.? 'Well, it strikes mel as a de cidedly objectionable way of trea ting the missives of one's corres ponence,' went oni thec young cavalier, presently. 'Rather of ai unfrieudly -cut' I sh~ould say.' -1 Iiang I amt the bent judge of wat disposal I make of my coetspjondece1,' ! e p i ied Mibs Margaret, with some spiri.. 'Ail important letters I preserve, of course, but mere chatty notes from my school friends accumu late so fast that I think it best to make way with them. Now, Ida Stanly, my ebum at Vassar, wvho Iaffects this pink stationiery, does iot object at all to my using her letter to brighten my jar of paper I lghe,-. Junt look. Is not the shade lovely ? It is just the color of the dear girl's cheeks.' One mlorning two or three days later the young man handed Miss Marg areL a roll of music which lie had volunteered to copy for her. 'I have had no end of difficulty over it,' said he, as he glanced impatiently out of the window. '1 upset my inkstand in my writing desk, and so conipletely daubed over a letter I had just finished that I was obliged to copy it. And at length, in order to be in season to take a drive with your brother at the hour appointed, I was coin polled to harry this music. It presents a much less neat appear ance than 1 wish it did.' The span of horses were now at the door, and the young man left the room, drawing on his gloves as he .departed. He had been gone a few moments when Miss Margaret proceeded to look ov'r the manuscript music. Lying be tween the sheets in full view was one page of young Marshall's blotted letter be had referred to. At the first glance she saw her name, and beforc she was really aware that the blotted paper had evidently been placed in the roll by mistake, she had read : 'This is a rare old place to visit, I assure you. The Davenports spend money as though it grew on bushes, and yet they use 'pa per-lighters' to save matches, and fancy themselves to be very eco nomical,,- as we have to be at home. By the way, I suspect Miss Margaret is more than half in love with me. She refused to pay a visit at the home of her very intimate friend, Ida Stanly, while I was here. How do I know this to be a fact, ask you, brother Toni? Why, thanks to those same 'paper-lighters.' This Ida Stanly's letter had been cut up into strips, rolled up and plac ed in the economical porcelain jar over the mantle in the library. I just abstracted them from thei.r receptacle, carefully unrolled them matched the slips and so possessed myself of a pretty array of girlish secrets. Oh, this is a jolly place to visit, and one small economy is much better than all economy at home; so I don't know but I had better make love to Margaret, although-' Miss Margaret was very indig nant of course, but she quietly dropped the blotted sheet of pa per into the grate and mentioned the matter to no one at the time. She treated her brother's college friend and chum with her habitual courtesy, until the vacation was ended and the two young men had left tbe Davenport re,sidence for college. It was a great paizzle to Charles Marshall why he was never again invited to visit the Davenports, and Miss Margaret answered a letter, he wrote her soon after he arrived at college, only by a brief and somewhat curt message to him in a letter to her brother. About the same time he was as tonished to find, as he entered his room one evening, that his old friend, Fred Davenport, had taken his books, pictures, and his part of the furniture, to another room to share them with a new chum. Both the young men subsequent ly graduated, and for along time Charles Marshall's path iu life was unknown to the Daven ports. The other day on reading in the morning newspaper that Charles Marshall, a business man in S-, had betrayed an important trust, Miss Margaret. now Mrs.' Dr. Lawvren ce, said: 'I am not at all surprised. Any young man With so little sense of honor as to abuse the sacred rites of' hospitali tas he did at our home, cmui (1ot be expectedl to prove true in any position,' and the.n fir the first time she told this story.

Of course you have been thinking of what we are to wear this fall and winter, and I am happy to give you such early informatiou that you will know quite as soon as the average New Yorker This is in consequence of my having been allowed to look over Lord & Taylor's sample books. Among satins the prevalence of plush, chiefly in stripes or squares, but sometimes too in large floral fig ures is very noticeable. Moire or watered satins, too, are extremely fashionable. In truth, you can hardly misplace a moire design, for they come in stripes extending all over the sur face in larger or smaller ripplings, or united with plush or brocaded stripes. Not only are these rich fabrics com bined with plain satin or velvet for dressy toilettes, but they serve as touches on fine woolen costumes, while for such purpose variety is given by plush combined with metal threads that lie embedded at narrow intervals. New plaided or striped woolens are also brought out in great variety, to be combined with plain wools in all the fashionable colors, bronze, garnet, wine, dark blue or brown. These plaided or striped wools are prominent among fall importations, and are novel, not only by reason of the new colors harmonizing with the handsome plain wools, but by new arrangements of bars and columns. Cheviot, too, is very fashionable. It has a loose twill, and in small in distinct checks or stripes will be made in simply shaped costumes without combination. But more dressy cheviot is wrought with plush or moire satin stripes, while to complete the outfit a clouded cheviot, in colors, to match, is provided. These costumes will be very stylish, yet not more so than beviots that have broad stripes taking up a part of the breadth. These latter re intended for the plisse (plaited) ffects that are amongst newest ideas. T'he stripes are laid in plaits so that ne color appears on the outside while he other shows from beneath in limpses only. The transitions in olor: are subdued so that they can be worn by persons of quiet taste. Bright r woolens are worn in alternations of ne plain, broad stripe and one of loral design, and these are disposed in plisse style, either the floral stripe appearing on the outside with the plain color peeping from below, or vice versa. Of course there is plain material to match THE NEW BONNET. Felt is conspicuous in Millinery and is in black, white and all new colors. As to shapes, one may choose among the poke family, quaint in outline with high pointed crown, or selection can be made among the smaller cottage and capote bonnets. In pokes, there is considerable diversity, since some crowns are more conspicuously pointed than others and tbere are notable dif ferenc.es in size. But most of them are quite large. Hats are often very large; -having broad, square crowns with wide brims turned up on the left side. Yet again we see Derbys and turbans. Plush or velvet are the materials used and are laid plainly on the pokes and usually on the small bonnets as well. For trimming, we have plush, satin, velvet and ribbon, while by way of finish it is feathers, feathers, feathers. Ostrich plumes of such length that they must be artifi cially prolonged, sweep around the huge hats, but on bonnets a cluster of tips is preferred. Colors in ostrich feathers are frequently a very jumble -two or three mixed in a haphazard way, but sometimes they are of one color or shaded frow dark to light. Feathers are in bands, breasts with heads or entire birds, from a large dove or paro'quet. down to a humming bird*~ are seen. but are not as fashion able as baude. G3o k's plumage is also on new hats, but is dyed in bronze, garnet, olive and other new shades. NEW DESIGNS. For the checked cheviots that should be plain in outline with "tailor finish," there is nothing more suitable than the Sutherland costume having a short skirt trimmied with a deep, gathered flounce, overskirt with full back dra pery, apron front and tucked basque cnfned by a belt. Stout people would do better to select a plain cheviot or some one of the new wools either finished with stripes or touches of other material, and for them a plain fitting corsage is rather a judicious choice. Here we fiud the Baronne polonaise arranged over a short walk ing skirt trimmwed with deep plaitings. The fronts are cut in one piece falling over a shawl sliaped point at the lef', and draped high at the sides. The "?Richmond" is a new, tight fitting jacket cut away below th: waist, turn ed back in reverse above and fastened by a single large button at the waist. The Etelka is a dressy mantelet in circle shape with shirring at the neck and in a plastron behind Lucy CARTER. ADVERITISING THAT PAID, Johnny Manning, the Sheriff of Deadwood, D. T., was in St. Louis on business, and he re membered that a year before a St. Louis man bad been up to Deadwood and left owing a man several hundred dollars, which was to be paid as soon as he got bome. Manning met the man in St. Louis, and he said he would band him the money next day, but the days passed and the money dfd not come, though the man was amply able to pay. So one morning Manning inserted a personal in a newspaper to the effect that if the man who left Deadwood between two days did not pay the money he forgot to pay, before night, the whole cir cumstance would be published the next day. The notice was signed 'John Manning, Sheriff of Dead wood.' Before nine o'clock a you.ng man called at Manning's hotel and said he had come to pay $22 he had borrowed to get out of Dead wood. Manning found out who the money was borrowed from, and took it to carry to the Dead wood citizen, remarking that he was not the man referred to, but it was a mighty mean sheriff who would not carry money to a friend. The next man to call was the one he wanted, and he paid the money and apologized, and begged the Sheriff to say nothing about it. During tbe day seven citizens of St. Louis called on Manning and paid him money for citizens of Deadwood. believing the Sheriff had reference to them in his notice ; and after he had gone away, another citizen called and ask:ed the clerk for Manning, but the clerk said the other fel lows had all been there and paid up and this man had better keep his money. The Sheriff said be always thought advertising paid, but he never bad it demonstrated to his satisfaction before. There is a persistency in the life of right-doing which is more influenmal as a moral agent than the highest conceptions of ab stract goodness or the most eloquent appeals to n4oble senti ment. No power equals that of a lfe well spen t; no force is so great as that of character. For to be wisely and nobly persistent in anything the whole nature must be in love with it and loyal to it, and must, in some degree, be as similated with it and permeated by it. When a man asks a question I look him in the face. If I see no inquiry there, I cannot answer him. A man asked me about the coldness of this winter as com pared with others recently. I looked at him ; his fatce expressed no more curiosity or relation to me than a custaLrd pudding. I ade him a random answer. I put him off~ until he was in earn est. He wanted to make con versationi. A critic, in noticing a discourse ou 'The Sayings and Doings of (reab Men,' remarks: 'It is too sad to observ'e bow mueb they said and howv little they did. if you would be misemble, look witin. If you would be distract ed, look around. If you would be happy, look up. It is not wise to lose a friend to whom you can do a kindness, or frm whom yon can take one. ADMIRAL MeiI ARDl. The following is taken from the Essex (England) N w of August 19ti. Admiral McHardy is the brother of Mrs. L. J. Jones, of Newberry, whom she is now visiting Admiral MeHardy, for forty one years Chief Constable of Essex, retires from office at the October Quarter Session. I believe I am correct in saying that there will be*found to-day in another part of these columns an interesting ac count of the gallant Admiral's naval services. This, so to speak, fitly follows and supplements the t account recently given here of his l important labours and experiences in coninection with the work of po lice organization, and the two, 1 taken together, present a tolera bly complete epitome of the en tire career and services of this dis tin,guished officer both by sea and land. It will be seen that his a naval services, especially in con- I nection with the suppression of } the, slave trade, were of the most brilliant character. In fact, there was a time when the name and f fame of young McHardy were on every lip, and had he chosen to stick to salt water there is little doubt that he would have risen to the very highest honours and emoluments of his profession. But forty-one years ago, when the police movement was in its infancy, he undertook the task of organizing the Essex Constabu lary, and he has ever since re mained at the head of a force which, thanks to his administra tive and organizing powers, and his knowledge of men and charac ter, has long been looked on as one of the model police fore of the kingdom. What invaluable services he has rendered to the county, and how often he has been consuited in regard to the police organization of other counties, are matters that have too recently been told to need repetition here. A t the age of eighty, after a long life spent in the service of his country, he retires fall of years and honours upon a well-earned pension ; and to these honours I feel sure that another will yet be added in the shape of a substan tial testimonial expr-essive of their gratitude and regard on the part< of the MagistraLes, and the rate payers generally of the county he has so long and faithfully served. As a role I am no great advocate of testimonials. They are far too common. But whatever one may I think of testimonials in general, I believe it will be admitted on all1 ands that if ever there was a man who deserved some public< recognition of the kind at the ands of the county-I had al most said at the bands of his country-it is Admiral McHardy. I take it for granted that the Force he has so long commanded, and by whom to a man he is al- < most idolized, will not allow theiri venerafle and beloved 'Chief' to retire into private life without some special parting gift of their own; but over and above this, I hope to see a movement initiatedI for presenting the Admiral with a general testimonial, if I may so call it, that shn ll be worthy of the man and the county. To such a testimonial there will be no more willing contributors than his Chelmsford neighbours, among whom 'the Admiral,' as be is fa miiarly and affectionately called, bas always been immensely pop ular. In every good movement in the locality he has always been ready to take an active part, and I no occasion of general rejoicing that took the shape of a pub lie dinner or luncheon was ever considered quite complete unless the Admiral was there to return thanks in his bluff genial fashion for the Navy, and to dil ate with all the pardonable pride of an old sailor upon the achieve ments of those ships which, to use a avourit quotation of his-more applicable to 'the wvooden walls of~ old England' than to the iron cads of to-day Wak the waters like a thing of life, And seem to de,re the elements to strife. Happiness is just as cheap a nommodty a miserv.

This )art of the country was plain, ind there was no hill or ravine iear. Outram started on foot, pear in hand, a follower carrying rifle, and some six others bows mnd arrows.
