Jennie Kingston gave a queer
~rvous lhttle cough, blushed a~ lit
, anid responded:
"I'm very much Suprised at

"Now, ,Jennie, I don't like to be

Jennie sprang up, hastily, and
eing her jaunty little hat from
e mossy bank where it had been
elessly tossed half an hour be

"Si nce I am compelled to await

Jim glaac:ed at the slight, be

ily there, g.azing" with a fixed
terminationl toward the L:orth

d look changed the expression
his facee for a moment. Then
e smiles predominated, chasing
ay all signs of mystery, and
rowing himself-at full length on

a new thought seemed to disturb
the serenity of Jim's mind, for he

and interrogated tos:
"Jennuie, you don't mean t a
that you're in dead earnest ?"
"Yes, J im, I am."
A long silence, finally broken by
the abrupt inq1uiry:
"Why won't you marry me ?
"'Why, you see, Jim, the truth
is, I'mn-engagcd."
"Engaged !" he yelled furiously,
sprigingto his feet ; then seizing,
her arma almost rudely, he de
manded ini a low tone: "Jennrie,

"1 won't."'
"Yes, you will."

Liced poor mamma out on the bal

gether. Shortly afterward, mai
ma enticed poor me up to her
i-oom, and we had a long talk to
gether. Jim, she u as inexorable!
Nothing less than an immediate
and unconditional surrender would
satisfy her. I said everything I
could think of-called him a few
names, which she declared hurt
her feelings very much, but I
ould not move her an atom.
Finally I got scared, and what do
you suppose I told her? I said
that I was going to marry you?
You ought to have seen her then i

tention of leaping to the moon.
T hen she inquired placidly :'Has
James ever asked you to -become
his wife?' Now, you poor tun
happy sinner, what could I say to
that, but no? Then followed a
most interesting discourse, setting
forth in a startling manner the
folly aud mudness of those erring
females who p)lace their heart's
young~ affections upon any in
jividual who has not taken the
trouble -to ask for them. She
went on in this strain till I be

lanced up, and exelhaimied in a

"Good gracious, it's Colonel Dal

And he came.
The co!onel bowed very gra

urning to the young lady, re

OH ILD-WHIPPING.
The children of poverty ! My
heart bleeds when I think of
them ; the children simply covered
by a rag ; the et idren of famine
and starvation ; the children of
drunkenness and the children of
crime flotsaga r,nd jetsam upon the
wild, rude sea of life ; thc children
in alleys; the children that crouch
in corners when they hear the un
steady step of a drunken b;rute of
a fatther ; the cildren, little ba
bies with drinking mothers; the
phildren too, of the rich, that have
no liberty-these little children
that are cursed, that are trampled
up)on, that are frightened. I pity
them al from the bottom of my
heart. What right have you to
tyrannize over a child ? I have
very little respect for a man that
cannot govern a child without
brute foree. Think of whipping
children ! Why, they say t hat
children tell lies. Yes, eo wardice is
the mother of lies-tyranny the
father of lies. Suppose a man
who is as much larger than you
as you are larger than a five-year
old child, should come up to you
with a pole in his hand with,
"Who broke that plate ?" You
would tremble, your knees would .
knock together, and y'ouwol
swear you never saw the plate,K
or that it was cracked when you
gotit.
Think of a memrber of the Board f
of Exchange wh'ipping one of his
children for prevaricating. Tfhink
of a lawy-er beating his own flesh
and blood because he evaded the
truth. Think of a dealer in stocks
pu11nishing his child for settingr
afloat false reports. What an in
coinsiecy ! Think of' it ! If you
should hiereafter whip your child,
I wish yon could have a photo
graph taken whbile docing so, with
brows corrugated with anger,
your cheeks red with wrath, and
the little child shrinking, trem
bling, crouchingand begging. If
this child should happen to die
when the maple leaves are turning'
to gold, and when the scarlet
vines run like a sad regret out of~ r
the earth-wouldn't it be delight
ful to go and sit on the mound
that covered, the dlesh you had
bhotn,n and look at the photo- ii

110W SHE MANAGED IT.
Mr. Marooney is foreman in a
foundry, and gets $30 a week.
With this salary tite family ought
to get along well and save monev,
but they do not. Mr. Mar'oonCY
hsa cousin, a shoemaker, who
gets onily $15 a week, yet who
sails right alongr in lightning ex
press, while Maroonoy comes lag
ging along in a fre ight with a hat
box.
"flo v (do you manage it, Jack ?"
he would frequently ask, "to
gelt along the way you, do?
Hero you actually keep your fam
ily and save money on $15 a week,
while it takes every cent I make
to live, and i get double thbe pay !"
'-Oh, I don't 'manage it all,"
sayu Jack ; "I just take my money
bomne to the old woman on Satur
day night, and she takes8$5 to run
the house witb, and puts the rest
carefurlly away !"
"Do you give her all the mon
ey ?" asks Mr. Maroonecy, musing.
"Oh, no, not quiteo; I keep out a
ittle for tobacco during the week,
and a trifle to keep me from feel.
ing lonesome. If' 1 kept it all in
my pocket I would spend it sure,
but Mary keeps it tight and safe."
Mr. Marconev talked it over
with his wife that night, an dthey
soncluded to try Jack's plan. The
Eolowing Saturday night he
brought home his $30, and keep
ing back one. put the rest in her
kceping, and she promised to do
ner level best to set the table on
but $5. The first week she
spueezed through somehow, and
got along with $6.50. Mr. Maroo
ney was quite pleased, and began
laying awake at night thinking
about what kind of a house he
would build. He thought a plain
:ustic cottage with a bay window
wvould be about right. The next
seek her expense account footed
2p) $5.80. and Mr. Marooney chane
d his design for a future residence
~romn frame to brick. The next
veek she brought it down thirty
ecnts more, and he added a wing,
vith a wash-house. Then she
nade. a superhuman struggle, quit
>uying milk, and came within two
hillings of the goal for which sho
iad been striving. Mr. Marooney
lecidled on an iron fenco iu front
f his premises. Thje next week
he. lost ground(, slipped, and
amne out at the $6 post. Mr.
4arcoouey tho'ught a neat railing
ence was good enough for any
>ody, but when the ensuing week
he came in with tlying colors, and
truck the $5 mark in both eyes,
Iir. Marooney had the iron rail
ng r'einst ated], and gr'anite steps
tunning up to the door.
The next week she took th.e
noney she had saved, and wem.t
ud bought her a love of a hat,
oo cute for anything, a black silk
