Uue day in liarreat time, when every
hand on tbe farm was busy a bee, line
mao came over to laimcr Gray and aaid,
n rather a petulcnt tone of voice-
Mr. Oray, I wish yon would tend over
and drive yonr Reese home.
iVhr to. Mr llarton. what Lave mv
ecn doing f tbe farmer laid in a
mild, quiet lone.
They got into my garden, aud I will
not have it.
I am very pnrry for it, neighbor llarton,
ut what can I do f
Why, yoke thetu, and :lm keep tin in
i your own premises. It' no kind of a
ay to let your geese run all over every
aim and irardru in the neighborhood.
Put I cannot see to it now. It is har
vest time, Iriciid llarton, and every nun,
woman and tliild on the farm lias as much
ua he or she ean do. Try and bear it for
a week or so, and then 1 will see if I can
possibly remedy the evil.
I can't Lear it, and I won't hear it any
longer! the shoemaker "aid. So if yon
do not tuke care of them, friend Gray, I
ahull have to take cute of them for you
Neighbor Barton, you can do as you
please, farmer Cray replied in his usual
quiet tone. I am sorry that they trouble
you, but I cannot, attend to tlp-ni now.
I'll attend to them for you, sco if I
don't, the shoemaker said, still more nn
gi ily than when he firnt called upon far
mer till! V.
What upon earth can be the matter
with tin in eceee T Mrs. fray said, about
fifteen minutes iiftci wariLjJ
I really cannot tell, unices neighbor
Burton is tiikincr care of I hem. He threat
ened to do so if I didn't yoke them righ
off. '
Tukitie care of them ! How taking care
OftllUBl....; ,.CT,......,.i.,.,.,..;j..,
A to that I . am quite the dark., -r
jviiiing iticm perhaps. lie said titat it
didn't' take care of them he would. - So
suppose he is engaged lil the neighborly
business ot taking care ot our geese.
Mrs. Uray said in a qu ck and anxious
lone to two little boys who were playing
ieur.
The urchins scampered Vff, well pleased
to pettorm an (rr.uid,
Oh ! if be bus dared to do anything to
my geese, 1 will never forgive him 1 tbe
good wife suid, angrily.
11-u-s-h, bally J make no rash speeches.
t is more than probable that lie has kill
d two or three of them. But never mind
f he has. He wHl, get' over his pet and

ry do me I ) ill it bring my geese to
life? i
a a ii r at
ah I wen any, never mind. Lt us
ait until we learn w hat all this disturb
ance is about. -
In about ten minutes the' boys came
ouie, bearing the bodies of three treese.

Gray.
Maybe I can help you a little. Don't

So you have not forgotten bow uureas
onaUe jraa were about tha dura. It
wasn't rood for anything, yoa knew it
wasn't j and you'd uever put a jar o
cream into it as long as you lived that
you wouldu t. And yet, on trial, you
found that churn the best yoa bad ever
used, and now wouldn't part with It an
der any consideration. So you see, Sally,
that even yoa can aay and do uiirraaona
ble things when yoa art angry, just as
well as Mr. Barton. ... .
Mrs. Gray saw that bet husband was
right, but still she felt indignant at ibe
outrage committed on her geese. So she
look her three fat geese, and after strip
ping off their feathers, had them prepared

All this eel the shoemaker ttill ilerper,

It woulJ teach him better manners it

And puuih as into the bargain. ' W

what he deserves.
Yon know what the U'Mc my, Sally
about grievous words, fud they apply
with stiouger force to grievous actions.
An no I will return neighbor Barton

has done wrong, and I nre sure he is sor

borly an action, I intend making use of

Then you will be, revenged, on him,
any how ?
Xo, Sailyr-not revenged. I am not
angry with neighbor Barion, but while I
am talking here. his hogs are destroying
my corn.
And so eaj ing, farmer Cray honied off
towards Ins corn held. lien he arrived
there, he found four large hogs tearing
sooth that, than to oppose ami excite, and
kcr, and as tliey had to pa.' very uear to thus keep both bis family and our own iu
eaeu oiner tne i.irmer sroi a, ana uoweo
aud spoke kindly. M ! a? ton looked
aud fell very uneasy, bu. f inner Gray
did not seem to remember the unpleasant
iuclilent of the day before.
It was about eleven o'clock of the same
day, that one of farmer Gray's little boys
came running, and crying
dowji tho stalks, and pulling oft' and eat
ing the ripe ears of corn, j I hey had Al
ready destroyed a good deal. But be
drove them out very -calinjy, and put tip
the .bare through which they had eutered,
and then commenced githering up the
half eater, ears of - eirnr and then -ihrow,-.
ing them out in the lane, fir tbe hogs that
had lyt'ii so suddenly disturbed in the
process of obtaining a liberal meal. As
lie was thus engaged Mr Barton who had
from his own house, sern the furmer turn
the bogs out of his corn field, came bur-
ledly up, aud said : "
I am very sorry, Mr. Gray, indeed I
a 1 a.af Hi
am, tint my tinge-uave none tins 1 1 win
most cheerfully pay yon for what they
have destroyed.
Ob, never mind, friend Barton never
muni. Mtcli things will mip pen occasion
ally. My geese, you know, annoy yoa
very iqucu someiimes.
Dou t speak of tu Mr. Gray. I hey
didn't annoy me half as much as I imag
ined they did. . But how much corn do
you think my hogs' have destroyed I One
bushel or two bushel t Oc how much T
Le: it be estimated, and I. will pay you
most cheerfully.
Xo, no : not for the world, friend liai-
ton Siicli fhtngs wiiniapperl sometimes'.
And besides, some1 ot Uy tm-ii must have
ft the bars down, or yeur, hogs could
never. have, got iu. on, 4u' k mink, any
more about it, it would lu dceadtul if one
neighbor could not bear a liltlu with au-other.-

All this cut tioor Ballon to the heart.
His own ill nntttred language and comlucf,

pre sented itself, and deeply mmtined him.
After a few minutes silence, he said :
The fact is, Mr. Gray, I shall feel bet

you for al least one bushci of corn, for 1
am sure they have destroyed that much,
if not more. r-. r -
But Mr. Gray shook his bead and
smiled pleasantly, as he replid
"ITiiTi't think" anything more abont it,

You are certainly right, Mrs. Grsy
said, aud I only wub that I could al

am a lit tie quick, as they say.
And so is Mr. Barton. Now just the
same consideration tbat you would de
sire others to have for you, should you
exercise towards Mr. Barton, or any one
cUe whose harty temper leads bim unto
words or actions that in clamer aud more
thotighful momcuts, are subjects of re

become acquainted with the mischief that
was going on, and had already started
for the field of corn. ;
