" Never, so long r.s I live, wiil I torsive her, and wl-.ea 1 am de?d not a ' . single penny of my money shall ever benefit her or any one belonging to ber." j -v',. For the thousandth time old Job Grev uttered the same threat?the sa e i in spirit, if not in words. It had become almost a part of his daily life - and appeared to intensify as the years * passed. One would have thouzht, as the grave yawned more closely, he '* would have softened. Hut it was not so. His purpose remained unchanged and his will unbent. At first it had i been a paradox to his neighbors how one who prayed so long and loudly at all church gatherings could thus har. / bor reeeniment and be unmindful o the forgiv.-ness of which he would soon . . stand in need. But at last they became accustomed to his chronic state of mind, \ and knowing ibat, in ttie main, he was " . * the possessor of a rood and warm heart. simply smiled at it. Yet what could ' . have mede him burst ouv so suddenly and without apparent cause at that particular time sorely puzz'ed his old " wife. "Why Job,''she exclnimed, pausing " in making the pumpkin pies that were 1 . ever the crowning glory ot the Tnanksgivingtable, "what upon earth is t'je matter now?" And it would have been a wonder to ? those more deeply versed in the mystery of the human sool tnan busan urey. Her husband had waxed rich; the ; world had gone well with '-im, his acres had increased, he was the owner of bank and railroad slock, his cattle and horses and sheep were many, and he was not without worldly honors. Ye?, fusinesshad gone well with h m, and why, upon that golden morning, when the soft sunny breath of Indian Bummer whispered peace and plenty and contentment, he should have turned back the ledger of iile lor nearly twenty 5 ears *o look upon one dark, haunting page, could have been accounted for by none but himself. " "I wa3 tbinkinz. Susan," he said, and dfspite all the pall ot bitterness witlr?i | his hfart he could not entirely keen his voice from tremblincrand something of mist from gathering in bis eyes, " I was thinking of the day when our one child forsook her home to go away wit^ a 'scoundrel." 1 Ths poor mother, who had never * ceased to love their offending daughter, drew her apron over her tear-laden laahes and sobbed. '\He lov^d our child dearly and was very poor. Job. but always ireatcci her , kindly?always as long as he lived." "Hestole her away. She disobeyed her parents, and Iconid?" "Don't. Job?don't curse her. Poor child, she has suffered enough, and we all have wandered like sheep from the rij?ht path. But what could make you think of her to-Hay of all others?' I had to do so. We are growine old without any one to care lor us, and when we die all our wealth will go to strangers unless?" . " You leave it to some society." " To have it fought over and squandered. No, no; never a cent will any of them finger and grow fat upon." . "But our daughter?" " Hush! As she made her bed, even so must she lie in it. Didn't she steal hundreds of dollars from me?" "Thank heaven, they were married. Oh! the consolation that has been to me. But I wouldn't think of it to-day, Job; lo-morrow is the blessed Thanksgiving, and we oupht to prepare our Ives to meet it in a proper spirit. Certainly we have very much to be thankful for." wen, ueuonLinueu, iuib picture of our Mary?take it awav, wife, or it will drive me mad." The woman raised it from the floor, where it had faller, tenderly brushed away the dust, kissed it, and having laid it safely between the leaves of the Bible, be continued: " Happenine to come across the face -Sg : once so dear to us, I thought of what c ur home might have been bad she married as we wished; how she and Ler -^liusband and bright-eyed, laughing children would have made the lonely ^ old bouse ring to morrow. But it will ~never be. never be." His wife had sunk into the rockingchair, sobbing aloud, and evtn he was moved as she had never seen him before, as he went on: " it can never be now, Susan, but you might yet have somebody to save your old footsteps-one who would, perhaps, grow into our hearts, become as a child j to t s, and to whom we could leave our property when we are called beyond 'the river.'" i "Job!" she rtlmostgasped inastonishxnen, " what do you mean? ' "I mean," he said, hastily, and as one uncertain even of himself, *' we might adopt some girl." "Gracious! But old Martha? She has been with us these many years, and like ourselves, is about worn out. You could not have the heart to turn her out row?" "No, Susan. She shall be cared for even unto death. But she is failing fast. You cannot but have noticed it, and if! I nm not deceived ehe has something . heavy upon ber mind." . " It must be her son." !'Ho; he is dead But yesterday I brought her the news?blessed news, I t should say?though ever since she has i . wandered around muttering strangely [*, > and weeping and wringing ber hands.

I will L think over it, and we will talk of it [ .. again ihis evening. I haven't time now. As you say, Martha has become useless, and I have so much to do to get ready for dinner to-morrow. You know ryou inviud the domine and his wife to com* home with us after church." "Yea, yes. and I've got a considerable amount of chorine around to do myi self." fc All that day there was great stewing, I cooking and baking in the home of Job h Grey, but. his wife went around witb a 9?1 lighter step, pleasanter face,and brighter 9 eves than usual, and ever and anon her F old lips bubbled over with song, whi.e Martha sat moping in the chimney-corner, working her bands nervously, or wandering up and downstairs. L " Poor Martha," said Mrs. Grey to the woman sh? had summoned to assist her in tbe lavish prepaiation, "she takes the death of ber son hard. I fear it has ' upset her reason." "He never was a good son to her; br always caused her trouble and disgrace. f Dear knows she ought to be thankful [ be has gone," was tbe almost unfeeling v remark. - - \ y:\ ? " But still he was her child," said tl good dame, thinking of her own wande inn, home-denied one, and tears tricklf down her face. " I wonder where 1 died and what was the matter. I forg to ask Job. But we must hurry up. declare to goodness it is almost noo and I've got so much to do, and so mui to think about." "What is all this fuss about?" qu< ucmea Marina, suacieniy raising ij head from between her hands and a parently noticing for the first time t unusual disturbance in the domestic s rangements. " Have you forgotten that to-morro j is Thanksgiving and the domino ai | his wife are to be here?" asked li i mistress. "But don't fret about Martha. You are not well, and we manage to get along without you." " I shall never be well until I am my grave," replied the old woma solemnly. The mistress soothed her and hasten ! on the work. And early in the aftt 1 noon ihe pantry-shelves were load' with the most delicious-looking pumi kin pies, a great fat turkey, prepared f j the spit, a massive bowl of ruby crai j berry jeliy, a huge chicken pie, waitii the oven; a cake, crowned wiili tl most deiicate frosting?in fact, pver thin x in as much forwardness as cou be, and a hungry soul would have 1 i joiced even in expectation of the feas j Then the house was made tidy, swe l aud dusfed, fresh asparaaus'sprays hui ! in the corners, vases tilled with brigh j colored chrysanthemums, and the mi I tress, giving over the rest to her " help i announced her determination to run | and see the domine's wite a bit. But she saw the domine as well, at : they bad a long and earnest consullatio ! The trouble which old Martha was was discussed at lericth, and then th drilled into other matters, until at ia; warned by the lateness of the hoi Mrs. Grey thrust her needles into tl ball of yarn, rolled up the half finish stocking, nut it in her spacious pock< j and said she must co home and get te "You won't forget what 1 said, ai be sure to come," she said at partin j with a strange combination of smil i upon lips and tears -.listening in eye^.

"Yes, a soul saved; a lost shei gathered again within the fold would 1 j as a benediction. No. I shall not ft to remember, and I will add worns faith. Strange what could be the ma ter with Martha." An uour later Job Grey "came in fro his work atd found a loaded table wai ing, lamps lighted, ana a hickory fi blazing and crackling cheerily upon tl sitting-room hearth. "Bless me, Susan, you are beginnin Thanksgiving early," he said. "I thought you'd be tired an hungry. Job, and we might as well t comfortable." "So I am.

"Yea, I knew 50U like hem, Job," replied his wife, quietli though her old eyes sparkled with plea; ure and the red ilush on her cheel could scarcely have been accounted fc by the heat of the tire. "Like tbem, you dear old soul? Thei i3 nothing I like better. And such nic ones! I don't believe you ever mad better in all your life, and I know n woman can beat you. Susan." Pleased with the praise, Mrs. Gre told of her visit to tne parsonage; thf the minister said he would try and fin out what was the matier witli Martin and comfort Ler; and that they had als talked about their proposal to adopt girl. "And what did the domine say? questioned her husband. " Oh! be approved the p!an, and wor dered why we had not thought of it be fore." "Thinking was easy enough; tt right kind of a girl is the trouble." " The domine believes he knows or that will suit us?the child of a wido1 ?and he wouid drive over and s( about it." " That accounts for his being on tt road so late. I saw him oing along i I came in, and feared some one must b dying. When will fie let us kLowP" "To-morrow." "I wonder who it can be? Oh! guess I know. It's that Smith chili and a smart youngster. Well, whs ever the domine does is always aboi right, but we needn't have anything t do with the eirl unless si'e suits us." " HI course noi. it is noi every one would be willing to take into my housi much less my heart." " Early to bed and early to rise " wt with them the custom of a lifetime, at as the next day would be an uncon monly busy one they acted upon it, an the house soon bccame quiet, save no and then could be heard the walkic ano groaning of oid Martha. The husband slumbered heavily, bi the good wife scarcely closed h<r eye The anxiety for the morrow, the di: turbance caused by tbe old servant, tli responsibility attached to the adoptio and bringing up of a child, and the cor versation had with the minister con: bined drove away slumber, and befoi the day she was astir. But Martha had arisen even ear lie: As her mistress entered the kitchen sa found her bending over the tire, shivei ing, bonneted, shawled, and her dat bled dress telling she had been abroac " Land sakes!" stie exclaimed, " whei have you been, Marttia, and you sick? The woman looked at hir suarph even fiercely, but made no direct repl] though her mistress caught a muttere threat about doing something even : killed for it, and, looking upon her a one bordering upon insanity, refraine from further questioning and was can ful not to cross her. But as the morning progressed Marth appeared her former self, though moi reticent. She took her usual interest i what was going on, attended to tb household duties, and never gave a sig of the cause of her recent trouble, sa\ it might have been in a casual wor dropped about her not being " wante very long." That was the ray of light that solve the mystery of her actions for Job Gre and his wife. She must have learne their purpose, and presumed she wou) be discharged. ??r>?_ _',,4 iw:? it ; L uui uiu tuiug, aaiu uic uuouam " go and comfort her, Susan. Tell h< she shall Dever want a home as long j I have a roo over my head; she hi b'ien too good and faithful a servant." Mrs Grey did as her husband r< Suested. The woman stared at hi efiantly for an instant, and then brol down entirely and sobbed bitterly. "The good news was too much f< her," said Mrs. Grey to her husbar when she returned. "If I had on known the cause of her trouble at tire how much suffering J. might have sav< her, poor thing." Certainly Martha seemed cheerei and as soon as the breakfast thinj were out of the way and her mast gone to his out-of-door employmen the sought her mistress and 3aid: "Soyou are going to adopt a child i your old age?" "Yes, Martha, we are talking of it "Who?" ' Dominie Armstrong says he kno? a girl that will suit us " " And he is right. Listen to him." Mar'ha turned awav again, and eve more earnestly than before did up tl work. "I have everything in order," si said when called to go to church, " bi have got to stay and attend x/j dinner. " What, not going, Martha, and th Thanksgiving?" " No, not to-day. I am not well, an there is too much to be i'one." She retreated within, careiull'.' close up the house, and went upstairs, r< maining therefor p longtime; in fu< going and net returningunti(dinner ai solutely required ail her attention. An Job Grey and his Susan, and the domir and his wife found everything read when the lore service at church wt over. The table was set and garnishee th^ great chicken pie steamed nppetizin odors, the pumpkin pies as flaked gol< and the turkey dripping unctiousnei from its well-browned sides. Had tt mistress of the mansion attended I every matter personally there eouid hm been no improvement. But one thing trifle surprised her. There were tvt more plates and two more chairs tha the number warranted, and she que tioned Martha as to the reason " I didn't know who you might brir home. Somebody is always beit asked, and this being Thanksgiving thought very likely the table might t ' . </ . V 1 ir le crowded, especially as there was so r- much cooked." 3Q " And you were riciit, Martha," said Bl :ie the domine, approvingly. "There is o' indeed plenty, and room for more. Oh! I that all the sorrowing, stricken children n, of the earth could pariake of such in 2h bounty; that every wandering son and ?< daughter of the earth could gather Zi ?s- around their parent's board, and for- gi er giveness, love and happiness reign in A p. every heart. U] he Job Grey looked up at his wife un- c< ir- easily, and his wife was forced to wipe fe away tears. His words had touched the tf w hidden fount of feeliDg within their ri ad hearts far more than his labored sermon C er upon charity had done, and for a bi it, moment the silence was nainful. To hi I'll Job Grey his oft-repeated prayer arose hi accusingly. It was known to all present, tt in and for the first time he felt not only its m n, absurdity but its sin. Yet be was the K first to rally, and commanded Martha e(j to remove the extra plates and chairs. fa ,r_ The old servant looked questioningly w P(j at the minister.

JT] ee EUvts on Barjrn?A Wovel Experiment. The St. Louis Posl-Dispalch gives an C iteresting account of a novel and in- a w inioua effort of Mr. W. O. Atwood, of mesvilie, Ind., to produce honey in eat quantities and of superior quality. [ ftaf rrnnra n f flYnPripnf?G 'Slrtt.h bPSS n. JV/I410 V? VAffVk.VMWw ^ pon various flowers, Mr. Atwood dis- wai >vered that the honey made by bees 6,1 d on the blossoms of white willows jo&j lat grow on the banks of our Western whc vers is equal, if not superior,, to the Smi alifornia honey. Last summer he Anc roueht 600 hives of bees West, which Ly? d divided into three lots, one ot which .A e located near Vicksburg, another near tlcu le old to<vn of Madrid, and another on 1 island about forty miles below eokuk. ? The yield of honey was very satis- one ictory, but the honey-making season j?ei] as contincd to the bloom of the wiU Con iw. The principle of a portable api- eev< :y is not a new one. It is, in fact, a Zea; ?ry common occurrencc for the bea barj llturist to carefully move his hives teP( om two to live times in a single sumier, in order to keep in closu con- Yo1 guity to frt'sh clover fields. A great *8? lany hives are, however, injured by the iliing of the wagons; that is, the comb caj1 broken down. Mr. Atwood thought epjt rer this outlook for a long time, ard jnt< len decided that a steamboat was the aski ifest means of transporting bees. He she ; once made arrangements for the pur- hor lase of a small steamboat and two and irges of the ordinary kind. Mrs On these barges he placed 1,400 model tor' ee-hives, filled with busy workers, and j"*1 oout 2i 0 empty ore.?. The latter part eJ F last April he left Vicksburg. and, fter a run of ten or twelve miles, tied B p at a point where the willows were lick and in bloom. The bees worked joa< nnnjr the willow heres for two days, The id then Mr. At wood steamed up the wer ver a matter of twenty-five miies, and Si *ain released the bees; this programme thei e followed up, intending to go as far enf? arth es St. Paul, by which time he ex- e sets to have on his barges more honey Jh0. lan was ever before contained in one To an inquiry from the reporter as to an(j hether he did not lose many beus, who whi ould fly oQ, he replied that on t he con- it,st ary he has been gaining bees steadily peat rer since his trip commenced. Every clot i?ht when the bee* come in they are ran icorapanied by en immense number of ild bee?, whose acquaintance they ave formed in the -willows. It was in {""* iticipation of this accession to bis bee rce that he provided the empty hives, V* ( i of which he expects to have filled L ifore the closa of the season. an^ He says: " Bees, you know, although Qt f ?ry intelligent, are liable to make mis- phis kes, and I found out early in the trip A iat they sometimes get eonfuseJ as to Nei icir particular hives.

Only one wins Ct the building was burned. The structure occupied ten years in building, and wns completed three years ago, at a co9t ol $5 0,000. The loss by the Are will be about ? 300,000, on which there io no insurance. The cause ol the the is unkn >wn. It originated in the basement ot tho north wing, whicii was destroyed. Tho scones at the burning of the poor inmates in the hospital were heartrending in the extreme. So tppalliog a sight has rarely been witnessed. The patients in the annex wing wore males. Many ot them revised to leave tho building at all. Thoso who could not bo coaxed nor lorced out of the building became the victims of the Humes. The c thor-i were saved, some by ladders and some by leaping from the windows. Some were nearly nude, some shopless and hatlcss, and all wero exposed to tho letter cold. Many of the poor demented and crazed inmates fled as though tor their lives and could not be overtaken. They were halt raked, and were to be seen in all directions Hying in wild iright, some running with bleeding loot away Irom those who attempted to save them. The capacity ol tho building has beon tried to its utmost. There wero about 600 patients, and -.-very inch of space was utilized. While tiie flames wore slowly progressing, tho matron of the lemale department made all hasti) to get the inmates out, and many cl I'u-m ran :-hrieking into thesnowdriltsin thoir night clothes, even buryirg themselves in the snow, and had to bo dragged into tho barns and sheds, while those near by wrapped Uankots and shawls around them.

Meantime the flames spread very rapidly lrom the b-.sement, filling the halls with smoke, and making i<. impossib'e to do anything at saving the inmates ol the north wing, only by putting up ladders and pryinzoff flre screens lrom doots. taking the occupants out and actually carrying them dewii without olothing in many ca^es.
