kOWN in the vil
lage there were
goinr. to be great do
ings on the Fourth
of July, and the chil
dren of High Ridge
Farm were wishing
that they might go
to see the fun. There
were three of them
-Sadie and bessie and Joe; and Joe,
being the only Boy in the family, had
an idea that he ought to be allowed
a little more freedom than his sisters.
They were only girls, anyway, he
argued, and girls had no business in
a crowd, especially when there were
bombs and cannon to be let off; but
a boy-well, a boy could go anywhere
and be safe.
But Mr. Dayton, Joe's father, evi
dently held a different opinion, for
he said, very decidedly, that Joe could
not take part in the village celebra
tion. "Best place for boys is home,"
he added, as he went out to the Held
with his men. And Joe knew that ar
gument was worse than useless.
But in his way Joe was just as de
termined as his father, and if he
couldn't go to the village he said to
himself, he would have a little cele
bration of his own at home. He had
some pocket money hidden away in a
little old trunk up in the garret, and
with that he would buy all the fire
crackers he wanted. He would find a
secluded place, far enough from the
house to insure himself against de
tection, and there he would let them
off.
It did not occur to him then that
he would have rather a lonesome time
of it letting off his firecrackers by
himself; but a few days later, when
the Elton boys and Jack Hardy came
Into the store where he was buying
nisi firecrackers to make their own
purchases, his secret became all at
once too good to keep. The result
was that the other boys agreed to
join- forces with him, and it was ar
ranged between them that they would
have what they called a "bang-up
good time" all together.
The place decided upon was a strip
of uncultivated ground on the out

skirts of the Dayton farm. There
were no dwellings near save a small
cottage which had once heen occupied
by an old negro farm hand, and was
now used as a sort of shelter and
storehouse by the men working on
the new railroad close by. The men
would all be away on the Fourth, the
boys agreed among themselves, and
anyway they wouldn't be likely to
mind a bit ot' noise.
It seemed a little strange to Sadie
when, on the afternoon of the Fourth,
Joe suddenly and mysteriously disap
peared. She was worried about it,
too, for she suspected that there was
some mischief afoot. She knew Joe

j better than any one else did, and she
had felt sure for some days past that
he had some secret plan in his mind.
Suddenly tho distant sound of ex
ploding crackers was borne upon the
wind to her listening ears.
"Sounds as if it were out by Uncle i
Josh's cabin," Mr. Dayton said, glane-1
ing up uneasily irom his paper.
"Where's Joe? 1 hope he isn't up |
there. I heard the contractor say
the other day he expected to store
some dynamite there, ready for the
blasting. I guess I'll go and have a
look around."
But Sadie was already out of hear
ing, with little Bessie flying at her
heels. If she could only get there in
time to warn the boys! That was her
only thought. She never for an in
stant doubted that Joe was among
them.
Fear lent wings to the children's
feet, and, taking a short cut across

the fields, they were not long In
reaching the scene of action. A
pungent smell of smoke filled the air,
and as the two girls came in sight of
the cottage the first glance told them
that it was on fire.
"Stay here, Bessie," commanded
Sadie; "don't go one step frrther!"
Then, quickly skirting the small gar
den plot, she tore around to the back,
just in time to see the terrified boys
making off as fast as their legs would
carry them. Then, before she could
turn around, she felt herself being
lifted off her feet and carried rapidly
away, and a minute afterward there
was a tremendous roar, a great sheet
of flame shot up into the air, the

earth seemed to reel and shake, and
then everything grew suddenly and
strangely black.
When Sadie came to herself she
was lying in her own room, with
father and mother bending anxiously
over her and Dr. Buxton sitting by
her bedside with his finger on her
pulse.
"Why, I'm all right," she said, in a
surprised tone. "What has hap
pened?"
"It's lucky you are all right, young
lady," the doctor said, with a relieved
smile. "You had a narrow squeak,
I can tell you. It was a mighty for
tunate thing that the Italian left in
charge of the supply store had the
courage and presence of mind to pick
, you up and run."
i "Where are Bessie and Joe?" Sadie
' asked, springing up with terror in her
I heart.
"Safe, dear, both of them," said
mother, soothingly.
"Nobody hurt at all-thank good
ness," the doctor put in, "though why
you weren't all blown to smithereens
. I'm sure I don't know. Now, keep
quiet awhile, young lady," he added,
as he turned to go, "and tho next
time there's a dynamite explosion on

out of the way."

from the illness that followed the
shock her brother had bitterly re
pented of the deceit that had brought
it about, and had resolved that, come
what might, he would always be

ture. The misdirected firecracker

>Iew Table Service.
It Is a new and pretty idea to have
the luncheon doilies to match the de
sign of the plates, particularly if there
is a plain border around the edge of
the latter so that the doilies may be
buttonhole stitched. Of course, it
would be necessary to choose for this
purpose a set of china that is not too
elaborately decorated with complicat
ed designs.-Washington Star.
To Keep Flies Outside.
For those who object to wire net
ting in the windows a new idea has
been found to prevent flies and such
annoying pests from entering the
house. This new preventative ls a
window box of mignonette. It seems
that the insects do not care to face
the odor of this charming flower, so
that it is an effectual barrier against
their invasion. It sounds like a pret
ty idea, and we may expect to see
ugly wire screens entirely discarded
and the windows decorated with dain
ty boxes filled with the sweet blos
soms.-Washington Star.
The Hiccough Easily Stopped.
This is a most distressing and ob
stinate complaint to those in whom it
occurs. We do not refer, of course, to
the hiccough attendant upon great
prostration of the system, but to those
instances (very frequent, indeed) of
a simple spasmodic condition of stom
ach and oesophagus which assails the
Individual without any other symp
toms of disease, and in the treatment
of which anti-spasmodics prove Inert.
Relief can be obtained by directing
the patient to hold the arms straight
above the head and to keep inspiring
as long as is feasible, so as ta retain
the air in the lungs for as long a per
iod as possible.-Family Doctor.
An Old Trunk Renovated.
An old discarded trunk was brought
down from the rafter room. I pur
chased 7 varete of red cambric and 2
packages of brass-headed tacks, lined
tray, tacking corners neatly, also lid;
made ? deep pocket in lld for pat
terns, the bottom of trunk makes a
safe place for sewing materials, the
lid for smaller articles such as cush
ion thread, tape measures and scis
sors. Make a small bag for loose
hooks and eyes, also one for butons.
Cover outside of trunk with burlap,
placing brass tacks close together.
When finished you have a most use
ful and ornamental receptacle for
your sewing room and very inexpen

A Convenient Pantry.
A frcuse that lacks tht great con
venience, a butler's pantry connecting
with the dining room, may find a very
convenient substitute for one in a tall
screen placed near the kitchen door.
If of strong material the screen may
have a shelf fastened to the inner
side on which may be placed the des
sert and fruit pl?teB until ready for
use. A small table behind the Bereen
may hold other necessary articles,
like a pan of hot water and towels to
supply clean forks and spoons to the
table, or to hold delicate tableware
that cannot safely be washed in the
kitchen. Such a pantry may easily be
constructed by the house carpenter.
A well made pair of clothes frames,
covered with marbleized oilcloth on
one side and Canton flannel or cre
tonne on the side to be exposed to the
room, could be used for a screen.

Saving Grace of Humor.
Our English literature entitles us to
claim as ono of our national assets a
keen sense of humor, that homely
genial quality which ls to wit as the
fire by which we warm ourselves is to
the flash of the searchlight. Now
there are certain symptoms in Eng
lish politics and literature today which
suggest that people in our cultured
classes may be losing that sense of
proportion^essential to humor, and be
