We were belated by the snow which collected on the railsand when we reached Earldale-there was a little girl, who had been tent on In the care of the conductor, who must wait either three or four hours for a way-train in the cold .and cheerless statloD, or be taken home acroesa cowy field by some one who knew, the way.

' i Ploughing down amid the snowdrift through 'a grove of pine trees that edged u "ravine at the back of my house, I sprang lightly on the door step; thedr was shut and locked. I went around (6 the front. Hore I ef fected an entrance, but the, fire was dying on the hearth, and little Bertie, tucked up in his crib, called out : "Papa, is that you?". "Where is mamma, my son?"

And when at length came out close to a ruined wood-and- water station on the edge of the trck I knew that I was full half a mile l?" low the White Blackbird, ' And in the distance .

Mr. Bunnell stood quiet for a mo ment and then turned away, saying, "Neighbor, that old cow is no fool, at auv rate." Something that will Interest the Fair Sex. Qne Form of Womin'i 4Work. One of the most satisfactory results cf the widt ulng of the sphere of wom en and one which will have a most beneficial effect on the world is the effort which she is enabled to make for the benefit of her own' sex. fck many ways and plans for helping tbe unfortunate which never could have been devised or put into operation ex cept by educated women who could thoroughly understand and appreci ate the wants and needs of .other women. One of the most noteworthy of these results is the change that has taken place in the character of persons and reformatory institutions for wom en. These are now to a great extent either partly or wholly under control of competent women, and accomp'iah a very great deal of good. . The work ing of one of these institutions which is conducted entirely by women, the only man employed being the secre tary and treasurer, is described by a correspondent of the Boston Trav ml4r ' ' t'- . ' "The work of the institution, tne cooking, cleaning, laundering, and the service in tne house of the superin tendent is jentirelyj performed by the inmates. Besides this the special in dustries taught and in which they are engaged, are Bewing both by hand and machine, knitting by machine, and manufacture of hammocks. The work which may be available to the women for earning a living after they leave the reformatory Is the line of work selected In preference to one from which greater benefit might result to tbe institution! the good of the inmates being the first consideration in every thing. They iije each given one hour in school every day. The greater por tion of them can read and write on entering. It" ndt they are taught to do so ! and the! rudiments of common studies are added. One of the inmates said ou leaving ihe was glad to hare learned to read, jfor now fahe eould tell the streets by iliwir lamp-posts. Last year ninety eight were sent out from the fourth gradej, of whom only.seven went .back to; a bad life. One old woman of some fdxty years; some time after being discharged, wrote a letter to the superintendent, saying she had nothing to write;, that she had nothing to say, but wan ted them to see she had not forgo ten hjojiv to write. In the industrial department twenty seven dozen shirts er day are tarned out; eight hundred doi-.en pairs of stockings a month, 'and the revenue of the laundry is 1130 per month. . .f uch washing is receiyed from the city, un select'ed familyjweshinga being done for fifty cente a (jken.

No matter though, your hair ia "silver-streaked," arid .Dot in the cradle calls you "Graiidpa," yeu are only "the boys," eo lbng as mother lives. You are the children of the old- home. Nothing can crowd y ou out of mother's heart. You may tuve failed in the battle of life, and; your manhood may have been crushed out against the wall of circumstauees ; you may have been prosperous',' and gained wealth and fame ; but mother's love has fol lowed you always. Many a !boy" has not been home for five, ten, or twenty years. And all thU time, moiher has been waiting. Ali! . who does not know the agony expressed by that word? She may; be even now saying, "I dreamed of John last night. Maybe he will come to-day. . He may drop in for dinner;" axd the poor,, trembling hands prepare sprue favorite dish for him. . Dinner ponies and goe, but John comes not with It. Thus, day after day, month .after, month, year after year passe?, till at la9t, "hope deferred maketh the heart sick," ay, sick unto death; the feeble arms are stretched out uo louger. j. , r- , The dim. eyes fare close d, .the gray hairs are smoothed for the last time, and tired hands are folded to everlast ing reit arid themother waits ni mre on earth for one vlio comes not.

One of ihe most rematkable displays i f nature may be seen ou the Atlantic rcast, eighteen miles south of 8t. Au gustine. Oft Man tan sag Inlet, and three mi'es from shore, a mammoth fresh-water spring, gurgles up from the depth of tbe ocean with such force and volume as to attract the attention of all who come lu! its immediate vi cinity. . This fountain is large, bold, and turbulent. jlt-J i- noticeable, to fishermen and others passing in small boats along near the shore. For many years this wonderful and myslerious freak of nature ha? been known to the people of St. Augustine and those liv ing along tbe shore, and some of the superstitious ones have been taught to regard it with a' knd of reverential awe, or holy horror, as the abode of supernatural influence. When the waters of the ocean in its vicinity are otherwise calm and1 tranquil tbe up heaving and troubled appearance of the water show! unmistakable evi dences of 'internal; commotions. An area of about half an acre shows this troubled appearance something sim ilar to the boiling of a'washer-woman's kettle. Six or eight years ago Commo dore Hitchcock, of the United States Coast Survey, was passing this place, and his attention was directed to the spring by the restless upheavings of the water, which threw his ship from her course as she .; entered the -spring. His curiosity . becoming excited by "this circumstance he set to work to examine its surroundings, and found six fathoms of water everywhere lo the vicinity while1 the spring itself was almost fathondess. &varmah Fruit o JeioA PrDDiifo.

It vras cu the Lone Star ranch' that the wonderful three-ply sheep was born. We refer, of course, to theheep with three eyes, three ears and three tails, which we de scribed fully some weeks ago. We have received advices irom our special corre spondent, Mr. W. WJ Cook, whom we haw engaged a a specialist to keep a scientific eye on the peculiar hapien ings of the ranch. In course of his fetter on the recent phenomenon, Mr. Cook I says : "Most j of your readers probably know black wool brines from five to ten cents per pound' less than the correspondinggradeof white wool. In order to secure tbe separation of the inferior product, as cur shearing operations progressed,' we placed t re black sheep in a pen by them selves There were thus 011 last Tues day night sixty-three black sheep and some lambs alone in one of the eorals. During the night a coyote entered and killed an ewe and two lambs, and we wre greatly surprised to find in the morning that the wool on the re maining sixty-two sheep had turned perfectly white from terror. Happily this increase in the value of the w ool more than balanced the loss of the sheep that were killed. .The bleaching effects of fear.nn the human ' hair is well known, but I never heat d. of any previous instance of its action on ani mals. - t merely state Hue facts as they occurred and leave to ethers a practi cal application of theiu. which will, I doubt not, add thousands of dollar to the value of the annual wool product of this count; y." The facts given so succinctly by our correspondent are deserving of special notice, and will, no doubt, attract much a' tent ion upon the part of scientists. CoUttado Springitwatefte Sentiment.
