?.' "HS Little Gdtb j v From my windows I could look ' acroE3 tho court into the apartment occupied by the family of little Ga briel, who was called "Little Gab." His father was a cutter in. a cloth ing house. His mother was sickly and white haired at forty-five and expended all her health in household duties. He was an incurable invalid. His crooked spinal column made ais Shoulders rise to the level of his eyes. His legs were slender and soft and bent under a body warped and thrown out of equilibrium. He would not have been able to walk without an orthopedic corset. From this dis cor ted trunk, with a hump on the chest and one on the back, rose u head too largo, but the face had exquisite delicacy and an expression of singular poignancy. Although he was eight years old, one would have thought him twenty from his thoughtful face, his prom inent forehead and his brown black eyes, so precociously pensive. His father, mother and sister adored him for his affectionate ways and his extraordinary intelligence. The physician-had forbidden his working, but to amuse him and to -change his surroundings they sent him to school, where he forced him self to listen gravely and to retain all that he heard. Ono evening after school I saw him seated under tho porch of the liouse against the rooms of the con cierge. His mother had goue out to make some purchases, and, his sis ter not yet having returned from the Ishop, ho found the door of the apart ment locked. He was watching the street with hungry eyes, while his expression indicated deep thought and mournful resignation. While I questioned him the pupils of his ej'es threw observant and frightened glances at me. During the inter view his sister returned ail out of breath. "Oh, my poor Gab I" cried she. "I have kept you waiting, and you are impatient, ain't you? "No," replied Gab, with a calm, silvery voice. "I said to myself only that perhaps you did not want me .any more and would not come back. I am so sick and so troublesome." "Ah, you naughty boy !" murmur ed the young girl, covering him with kisses, and then, turning her' eyes, filled with tears, toward me, she add "He is so little and so intelligent. He reasons like a grown* person. What a pity that he is not strong! The doctor says if he can go to Berck this summer the salt air and 1 the sand baths will probably cure ? him. But it is far away, Berck, and n it would be expensive. But J am go 1 ing to try to make enough money to 1 take him there." The courageous young girl work ? ed from morning until night to I make the amount necessary. She 1 broke herself down at her machine. I She folded, gathered, seamed, bast B ed and sewed without rest. I heard the dry, quick click of the machino EX late into the night. It sounded like fl a sharp chorus of grasshoppers in H the fields. Behind the curtains of the lamp ! I light I saw the outline of the young fl seamstress. In the house everybody B knew the story of Little Gab, and B the women willingly gave their work ==~B to the sister. They stopped the Ichild on the landing, in the halla and court, caressing and fondling him and sending him delicacies. He was always shy, and he shrank from their caresses, which gave him more inquietude than pleasure. He thought a long time of these marks of friendship. I "The lady on the top floor has ? given me these to^s. Why has sh? I done eo when "lie does not know 1 me ?" he asked of his sister, with t ? keenness which gave a heartbreak I ing understanding of the working ol 5 his brain. "It IB without doubt be I cause I am a hunchback." >. I Work was plenty, and the bani I grew heavy in a dark corner of thi I bureau drawer. July was approach fYn|ing, and preparations were .airead] v-Dl commenced for their departure, i --J trunk had been bought and a cos * ltume for the child, who, enchanted ?talked of nothing to his school mate: ?but his trip to the seashore. I At tho last moment everything ?was upset by an unfortunate ace i ident. y-'.;'. fl The young wife of a clerk on th? ?fifth floor had given her weddin; fcown to tho sister to be re trimme? in the prevailing fashion. ? I One evening in playing with th gnk bettie Gao lei it slip from hi e a ?lender fingers, and its contents rai flualuckily on the white satin skirt.: I They aid not scold him. Alas, no [g Befhe consternation in his face wa loo painful to see. His sister stifler 1 cry o? terror. Silently, nervous! ->-Dinr? sp015^ th? material and meas il&vgred the -extent of the disaster.

It was finished. It would be nec essary to give up thc visit for this year." The girl embraced Little Gab and went to sewing again. The following ?winter they work ed steadily on the first floor. The autumn had been rainy, and Little Gab's health had suffered in conso ?uence. His bones ached, he had a ever and pains in tho head. The doctor examined him, stroking his beard meanwhile, and again ordered the child to Berck as soon as the weather became warm. This time it was decided, cost what it might, they would start for the baths at the end of May. The sewing machine recommenced again, and its grasshopper chorus was heard far into the night They had bought Gab a picture book with nothing but views of the ECO. Here were ports with their for ests of masts ranged along the walls of the quays, steep cliffs and rocks washed by yeasty waves and Ashing boats disappearing ot sea like a flock of white winged birds. The child talked of nothing but the ocean. He saw it in his dreams, und sometimes in broad day he thought the fog which filled the in ner court strips of coast beaten by the tide and large vessels with swoll en sails. Occasionally he took from the reantel a large shell and held it to his ear. He would stand thus, his neck lost in his shoulders, listening for hours to the noise of the sea which seemed to him to come from far off-from very far off. The winter was exceptionally damp, and I did not meet Little Gab any more on the porch of the ho use. The physician had expressly forbid den that he go out. From time to time I saw him at the window. His eyes were sad, sunken, and they looked far off, while his slender fingers designed vague ships on the window pane. Then, suddenly seeing mc in my window obsi rving ' im and thinking himself spijd upon, he made an an gry gesture and drew the muslin cur tain. . / Toward the middle of March I saw him no more. His bones ached with increasing severity, the pains in his head were redoubled, and his legs could no longer support him. He lay now the entire day stretched out on his little bed, turning for the hundredth time the leaves of his picture book, where he saw the ocean and the vessels with their white sails. He had not given up the idea of his trip. "When are we going to start? he asked his sister, and when shi explained that they would have to wait for warm weather he replied in his thin voice : "But I am in a hurry. I want to be cured quick, very quick, so that I will not see you cry any more." He had looked up the names of the towns on the route, and he al ready knew them by heart-Chantil ly, then Clermont, Amiens, Abbe ville and then the ocean. "Once we are there, I am sure my bones will hurt me no more." In waiting he had constantly by him the large pink shell from thc chimney, and with his ehr against its mother-of-pearl lining he listened to that distant murmur of the sea that was to deliver him from all hie miseries. Toward Easter I heard no mort the heavy rumbling of the sewing machine. They worked no longei on the first floor, but I saw a light ir the window far into tho night, show ing that some one was watching bj the bed of the sick child. "He is very low," the concierge said to me in low tones as she press ed instinctively against her skirti her eturd)', chubby faced boy. "H< cannot live long. Poor childi T will be a deliverance'* One morning I met on tho porcl a narrow coffin, carried by two mei and followed by the family. It was Little Gab, who was start ing on hi9 journey to the fathomlesi sea of the unknown. - From tb< French of Andrew Thuriet. Cures Blood Poison, Cancer, Ulcer* Eczema, Carbuncles, Etc.

Bail Eggs Have l?ood l'scs. The career of tho egg tuay not be romantic, but frequently it is inter esting. The full and perfeot career is without doubt to develop into a lusty young chick, a rolly-poly ball of yellow down with plaintive peek and toothpick legs. But the full and perfeot career is as rare among eggs as among human be iDgs, for many things intervene to eut it short, and its usefulness is diverted into channels of whioh few housewives and poultry raisers dream. Several fates Ho in wait for the fresh, clean egg that reaches market, with dozens of its fellows, in its pasteboard compartment of tho typi cal .*gg case. It may be sold for do mestic use and be fried with a niece of ham or bacon, or become an in gredient of the numerous products of the housewife's baking day. It may form part of a most tempting drink or fall into the hands of a hairdresser or barber, and oleanse the raven looks of a debutante or the mane of a police man. It may be that the egg is broken on its way to market or its shell is cheeked so that it will not Bell. Then it is broken with countless others into five-gallon uans and frozen. The rumor is that these frozen eggs are sold to bakers in the large cities to be UBcd in winter. Should the egg survive nu ?il it passes the zenith of its existence and enters into a decline, it may be sent to some of the large coffee roasters of the East and be used to glaze coffee. Even should the egg survive the first period of decline and enter into the last stage it is not without value. It is used commercially for tanning kid gloves and other leathers. The usefulness of the egg is not exhausted vhen it has met with one of these several fates. The shells where large quantities of eggs are used, are carefully gathered and thc portion which is not used for hen food is ground and forms a common adulterant for spices. The shell can be roasted to the desired shade, ie absolutely harmless and is very difficult for any but the chemist to deteot.-St. Paul Pioneer Press Suspicious.

In a little conversation with one of the school-boys who lives but a stone's throw from my home, and who was just returning from school with his books slung over his shoulder, I asked: "And what study do you like best in Bohool?" "Reading," was the prompt reply. At first I wai astonished. It seem ed as if this was a very simple matter to be first in a school-boy's liking the mark, perhaps, of a dullard; but I knew Charlie to be ono of the bright est boys on the street, and not a whit behind bis fellows in his grade at school, and, after a little reflection, I eleared the matter up so that it did not seem so strange after all. Here was a boy who couid do his other school tasks easily becauso ho could read well, and because he had como so Boov to see tho advantage of being able to read anything intelli gently. Here is an example in arithmetic Just exaotly what is it to bo find out, or solve? Well, thc fellow who ?an read the statement of the problem intelligently io a long stride on the way to its solution already. Here is a sentence to diagram, in language lessons. The boy who oan seo at a glanoo the main words, and then the dependent words in their right relation, because he grasps in an instant exaotly what the sentence means, is not at all troubled about tho simple mechanical process of arranging the words on the bars, or in the loops, of the diagram. It is the boy who understands what he reads who oan read the descriptions in his geography and not have a mere page to commit to memory, but, rather, a page picturing to him plaoes whioh he already feels that he would like to visit for himself. Just so in reading a page of history. To the boy who does not have to stum ble over words, the narratives picture events whioh make the reader wish he had been there and had a hand in thc things that were going on. And in reading a story it is a good reader who has time while he is read ing to really see and get acquainted with the people of the story, and to discover and admire the hero or the heroine. As a matter of fact the good roader hardly knows that there are words be fore him-in his way-but he sees with his mind's eye the ideas and realities whioh the word-piotures hold up to him. And the oniy way to learn to raad well is to read, read, read; and to think hard when you read; make it a business, climbing over an occa sional hard word by a lift from the diotionary, hut most often discerning what the obscure word means by what the words all around it say. There is an old saying that "bread is the staff of life." Heading, is the "staff" of the intellectual life.-Boys' World. t Italians in Cotton ti rowing. Lo Hoy Percy, of Greenville, Miss., who is a lawyer, banker and farmer, has been experimenting with an Ital ian colony on what is known as the Austin Corbin planting property in Arkansas, of which moro than 4,000 acres are in cultivation, Italians work ing moro than half that acreage. Somo of those Italians have been upon the property for years, and are so well ploasod that they are constantly bring ing over relatives and friends from Italy. Mr. Percy finds that as growers of cotton tho Italians arc in every way superior to thc negro; that they are industrious and thrifty, and are in clined to no race antagonism and to no raco mixture. He recognizes that there is an undoubted soarcity of labor in his part of tho South, with one class of negroes in demand by saw mills, oil mills and similar enterprises, and with another class soatlering through tho United States; but he looks to immigration to Bupply tho deficiency, and is oonvineed by ex perience that if Italians frc ai the Northern agricultural districts of Italy are encouraged to come to the South they will gradually take the place of negroes without there being any such violent chango as to paralyze for a generation tho pros perity of the country.-Manufacturers, Record. _ A Hint to lJapa.
