No one DJj could 'possibly feel more O keenly than I your rcJS proaches yesterday mornfOW ing when I was just leavfor Cherbourg with my governess, a Harriet, and my littler brother, fl. In spite of your having forbidit, the last thing I did before my arture was to brush my cneeKs h my powder puff. his you perceived as you bade me d-bye. Caught unawares, I denied fa.pt as stupidiy as I did -euergetK y, and you did uot spare your deelation. f course I am heartbroken to think t I haw ever displeased you, dear a, so I immediately made up my d that the best way to prove my entance and show my respect for was to conform blindly to your nsels. his is how I sot to work to practice m that very day. o sooner had we taken our seats iu train, Miss Harriet, Paul and I, n the guard came to take our tickAccording to your instructions we bought Paul's at half price.

Miss rriet was not at all pleased with interference, and she scolded and uttered away until she finally und up by telling me that she did think v/e appreciated her suffiltly. [ heard your father say the other ' that 1 was stupid," she said. "You dn't deny it, for you can't!" f course I had to tell her the truth. Ele didn't say you were stupid," I wered, "but ho did say that you e a goose." ercy! That was worse than ever, s looked at me as if she would like ?at me up. She did not say much. I: I think, dear papa, that you iiatl ter be on the lookout for another 'erness. fe reached our destination without ther adventure, except at the cusi house, when we were asked to dere the brandy, the cologne, the game my aunt at Cherbourg and all the t of the things. This cost fourteen re francs! iter an hour's ride in the carriage at length threw ourselves into the *s of your sister. Thin and bony, re homely than ever?I am still beperfectly frank, you see?she stood itlng for us on the threshold of the house which you are so anxious to to her. Why didn't your mother come with i?" she asked me at once. Oh, mamma was delighted to get of us so that she could have a good e with papa," I replied, for was it the truth? 3iie is not ill. then?" No, indeed." 3he wrote me that she was ill. Ah! Understand perfectly; I am to have the care ana worry or raiuog cure the children while she amuses herE." he did not seem pleased, .somehow. led to caress her and soothe her. But you love nre, little one, don't i?" she said. Yes, aunt," I replied. As much as your mother?" was about to tell a lie. Fortunately smembered your words in time, &? I wered her truthfully. Oh, no, indeed, aunt, not nearly so 99 Is it because you think your mother pettier and more agreeable than I?" : persisted. That is exactly the reason," I reMi. he frowned at me as blackly ag Miss rriet had dene, but she gave me one t chance to redeem myself. Why, how old do you think I am?" demanded crossly. gain I was absolutely frank and i just what I thought. Nearly sixty. I should judge." rlittle fool, I am only forty-five," as she seemed quite inclined to box ears I thousht it was high time to ' * T U ^ J-~ loe presents tuui 1 uuu uituukui. ? " Here is ?. centrepiece that mamma it jx>u," I said as quickly as I could . hold of it. It is very prettyand aunt opired delighted. "But what espelly touclus me is the thought of all stitches that my sister-in-law has en for me herself." Oh, but she didn't embroider it herf." I said hastily, for I remembered v pained you would feel at such a larture from the truth; '"the waits did the work on it." .unt scowled more fiercely than bee, and I handed her your bo:: of >coIates. What! From Potin's!" exclaimed it, smiling, all her frowns vanishing if by magic. "His chocolate is alys the best, but it is so expensive." his time, dear papa, it concerned 1, so f told her the truth at once. Tlr- box is from Potin's, aunt," I l~ New Year's Day, but papa got thd chocolate at the little shop on our cor? j ner." Aunt looked as If she had a whold thunderstorm inside of her. and the frowns were i'J full force as she said sourly: * '1 hoped that your parent# would have the decency to come and see me themselves. Your father wants to sell ' me this house, and as he said he had j had it specially repaired for me, per* haps I might he suited very well!" "How curious!" I remarked, saying exactly what I thought. "There I haven't been any workmen here for j three years, for I heard papa say so!" "All!?Aud do you also know why j your father wants to sell the house?" I t was tempted to be sJent, but, in- ! stead, I said frankly: "It is too noisy here to be endurable j and, besides, there are stables close by." I cannot describe, dear papa, the un | fortunate effect of these uudenlabk> j ;truths. My aunt left the room hastily i and banged the door behind her. I should have renounced then and j there the attempt to be truthful if j Gaston de Tournettes had not just thai instant jumped from his horse and I come hastily into the room. I wished : to announce his arrival to my aunt; j but he stopped me, saying that he had heard of my intended visit here and had come to see me the instant he ; knew I had reached the city. He said that he wanted to speak to j me and not to my aunt. Thereupon he began to say many very pleasant things to me, and finally asked openly if I liked him. Ah! my dear papa, if it had been disagreeable to me before to tell the truth j 1 assure it was quite aiuerenc iuia i time. . "Indeed, you please me very much, Monsieur Gaston, and you always have." "Then you are not afraid to become my fiancee?" "On the contrary, I shall be delighted to do so," I said frankly, remembering how you had said he was the most eligible bachelor of the season. "And you will love me?" he contin- | ued. "I love you already?" But I will stop here, dear papa, foi it seems to me that I can see you frowning this time, and I can hear your voice growling: "Naughty girl! You have said as I many impertinent and awkward tilings j as you have told the truth!" * So let me hasten to reassure you, j dear papa. This is all a story that I I have made up to tell you. Paul paid no more than half fare j and Miss Harriet is convinced that we | pmild nnne of us sret alonsr without her, r and that we think she is the very salt of the earth! The brandy passed the customs officers beneath their eyes and | noses, and they never suspected a I thing. | My aunt is delighted with mamma's j centrepiece, which she thinks is all her own work, and she is perfectly satisfied with the cheap chocolate in the i Potin box. She will certainly buy the house. And as for poor Gaston de ! Tournettes, he is atill ignorant of my ; sentiments! I merely wished to show you, a triflo maliciously perhaps, but perfectly respectfully, I assure you, that the truth you talked so much about is not always expedient to tell. Indeed, you would not think it was modest or fit- j ting for a lady to issue from her well and travel about through the world without being adorned and veiled to a cor tain extent. You had far better trust to woman s ) tact, finesse and t.?ste to render her sociable, amiable and even pretty and bewitching without losing any of her natural grace! Cover her with a little anodyne in the shape of a few innocent lies and she may Journey freely without fear of injury. Thus, dear papa, do not scold me so severely another time. I promise that I will tell only nice, white, innocent little lies, and you must admit now, yourself, that they make life vastly more agreeable and easy to live! In fact, there is no getting along without them! JULIETTE. i Tbe Country Editor. The worm will turn. Sometimes it takes the worm a long time to make up its mind to do it, but sooner or later it does. Every man who has served time as editor of a country newspaper has experienced the trouble referred to in this little anecdote, but not all of them have had the courage to resent it. T 11 in JLfft inert? uu a ovticij the little city and the local editor present, some will approach liim with a smile and say: "Well, getting some news to put in your paper?" Of course they mean well, but they seem never to realize that perhaps even a country editor can lay aside his professional duties long enough to go out in society and meet his friends on a social basis. "Deacon" Dobyns, one of the best known, country editors in Missouri, suffered this sort of thing for years, and although it rankled in his bosom, he never let on, but smiled in return and nodded assent. But at last patience ceased to be a virtue. Not long ago he attended a social affair in his home town, going as an invited guest. While mingling with his friends a local grocer greeted him with the remark: "Good evening, 'Deacon.' Getting some new3 for your paper?" ' Yes. that's what I'm here for," re | plied "Deacon." "By the way, Mr. Sands, are you here to drum up some trade for your store?" Of course the grocer sot mad about it, but "Deacon" only grinned and resumed mingling with his friends.? From W. J. Bryan's Commoner. Cloven. The word clove is derived from a Spanish word meaning u nail?the similarity in shape between a clove and a tiny nail is easily recognized. Cloves are the floiver buds of a tree which grows to a height of fifteen to forty feet. These flower buds are the principal products of the tree. They are gathered carefully, exposed to the smoke of wood fires, and afterward to the heat of the sun; or again they may bo dried by the sun alone. Cloves are much used both in savory and in sweet dishes. In braizing, making a soup, stew or ragout, no cook would think of dispensing with au oniov stuck witb cloves. I f i ATTRACTIVE HOME GROUNDS' i I A Summer House May Be a Source of Pleasure at Little Cost. [W W1Q yard of sufficient size to admit of it ought to be j jVT without something in the v^T v*, wft.v a summer house. There are several reasons wuy iuis should be the case: First, such structures are attractive in themselves; second, they afford an excellent i opportunity for displaying vines to adj vantage; third, they give the children I of the family a place to play in, in | which there is ample shelter from A PRETTY SUM aent, but where all the benefits of pure air are to be obtained. But the probabilities are that a house of this , kind will not be given over wholly to the children. The older members of the family will find it so delightful a place to spend the hot days of sum- , mer in that they will make quite ns much use of it as the children will. With comfortable chairs and a hammock it can be' made far pleasanter than any room in the house. If built of good size?as every such house ought to be, when the grounds will admit of it?tea can be served there in summer, and it will really become the centre of family life from June to September. A house like the one shown in the illustration accompanying this article will cost considerable, for every part of It is well built and calculated to last for years. But those who cannot afford the expanse of such a structure can easily reduce the cost by using rustic material. Posts of cedar, set in the . ground, will afford ample support for the roof, which ought to be of shingles to beep out rain. For the railing and bracket work cedar poles and branclfes can be substituted, or, if these are not procurable, any kind of wood can he used. Cedar is preferable because of Ihe ease with which it is worked and Its pretty bark,1<whicb will last-for a long time. Any kind of material obtainable from the woods can be worked into such a building with good effect. The more crooked, gnarled "and fantastic it is the better for brackets aud railing. Vines should be set out about the house and trained up the posts and made to completely cover the roof. In one season it can be made a bower of beauty. Th#- best vine for the purpose j Is our native Ampelopsis, or Virginia eroent?r. This will take hold of the , rough [)oI;?s with its fingers and train j Itself. Our Olnstrus, or bittersweet. Is another cxcellmt native vine of very [ rapid growth. This will also train it- j self by twisting: its slender branches , about post and bracket. Its scarlet and 1 orange berries will make the place ] quite as attractive in wiuter as iu summer. 1 While a house like the one iliustrated may look better in some respects l than the cheap substitute of posts aud poles, it will lack the rustic charm which characterizes the falter. The boys of the family can build a house ( that will afford the entire family a world of pleasure, and the cost of it will be small?Eben 13.

Culbertson, in the American Cultivator. Importance of Grit and Lime. The. importance of providing plenty of .grit and mineral matter for poultry must never be lost sight of. Chickens have no teeth with which to masticate their food, and grit takes their place in a fowl's internal economy and is therefore on? of its necessities. In a ehickan's gizzard fine particles of sharp sand or pulverized glass serve to grind the grain into a pulpy mass, which is dices Pfl hv thp intPsHnos Tbi mineral matter is necessary in the formation of the egg shells, and those hard particles from which the lime is most readily dissolved are therefore the most useful. Nothing is better f?.p this purpose than oyster shells. The imount of mineral matter fed to poult -y depends on whether or not they are laying. During the laying season hens require more mineral matter than when they are not producing eggs. Three things, however, ought always to be in reach of the fowls, finely powdered glass or grit, to aid digestion, ground oyster shell for egg material and charcoal to keep the system thoroughly cleansed.?Thomas W. Lloyd, in the Tribune-Farmer. "T Clover a* a Fertilizer. In a bulletin from the Central Experiment farm. Ottawa. Canada, may be found a discussion of the profitableness of growing and turning of clover crops. Extensive experiments in this line have been carried on at that farm for a period of over eight years, and tbe results gathered therefrom con| tain a considerable amount of practical information and data. The advantages | derived from plowing under clover are briefly stated by the station as follows: There is an enrichment of the soil by the addition of nitrogen obtained from the atmosphere. There is an increase in the store of available - mineral plant food, phosphoric acid, potash and lime, in the surface of the soi. taken by the clover in part from deptts not reached by the shallower root systems of other farm crops. There is a large addition of humus, whereby the soil is made more retentive of moisture, warmer and better aerated, conditions favorable to vigorous crop growth. Humus also furnishes the material best adapted to the development of these forms of germ life that act so beneficially in the soil. As an agent for deepening and mellowiug soils, no crop gives such satisfactory results as clover. Clover serves a useful nurnose as a catch crop during the autumn months, when the ground would he otherwise bare, retaining fertilizing material brought down by the rain, and also that formed in the soil during the summer months, mu^h aC which would be otherwise lost through tbe leuchiug action of rains. As shown conclusively by the particulars obtained by careful experiments over a number of years with the more important farm crops, the plotving under of green clover has a most marked effect in increasing the soil's productiveness.?

Peas may be planted about every ten days up to the first of June, string beans from May L to August 15. beets to August LO, Early (lorn varieties of carrots to July 20. The later varieties of corn, such as Slonewell's Evergreen, cannot be depended upon to mature if planted after July 20, butearly varieties may be soavii a week or two later and will yield a late crop. Celery for early us? should be in a permanent place before July 4, and no time lost thereafter in getting the main crop planted. In private gardens the old method of planting in trenches is still favored as being more economical of space. These trenches are dug about twenty inches wide, and four or five inches deep; a liberal coat of manure is then placed in the trench aud thorouehlv iucomorated I with, the soil. These trenches will ae? commodate two rows of plants, planting them about eight inches apart in the rowSr Thorough cultivation and plenty of water should be given until the plants are ready to be earthed up. which for the earliest batch should? be no later than September 1. For blanching such varieties aa White Plume boards are now generally used after one or two handlings.

One of the Procurator's retinue saw the weapon gleaming in the sun, and with a single spring hurled himself upon the man, bearing h:m to the ground. The Procurator's attendant wrested the revolver from the assassin's hand and handed it to an agent of the sccret police. Then he turned his cptive over to the police.
