My hurt is but a trilling ..ne. and yet I felt so weak Thai when 1 tried to . beer 1 f.-und that I could hardly speak.' Ti.e doctor stooped and saw tbe wound. then looked upon the youth.

It had been a strug 1 gle to keep t lie home, but by dint ' of good judgment and economy on tbe part of Mrs. Houston and bard , I labor b.N honest Frank, tbe farm j was now theirs. And a prettier, thriftier little larm could not be ! found in all that country. ' The cny white cottage was sur rounded b a neat picket fence, every nail bail of w hich had been driven by Frank's own hand-. In front was a lovely tlower garden. : with its variegated beauty and ex i hilarating sweetness. Travelers ' stopped to inhale tbe odor of the sweet violets and simultaneously I exclaimed, "How beautiful !" as! j tbe beheld the phlox, petunias ' I ami larkspurs bending and kissing lover the narrow walks. I n the south was a little vege 1 table garden, where scarcely a sprig j of gras- wa- to bo seen, the thrifty , ! tree-; on tbe north, well trimmed; i and white-washed, added much to' ihe freshness and value of the : place. A good sized chicken-bouse 'was at the back nt the cottage, ; "which," Frank said, '-had afforded ithem main a royal meal." From! ' the pebbled walk in front to the pig -ty in the rear there was mth ! iug t" betoken untidiness or dis content. One would have thought the owner's heart and ambition was in "keeping the neat little farm on ! the hill." as the neighlor8 called' it. Hut, alas! for poor human na-1 nire that is never satisfied ! l'rank Houston sat on the top of the front pia..a wearing a most de lected look. The day s work nail I ust been completed, lie had come t in hot and tired and seated him self, coat less and with bat puahed back, exposing a broad, finely de veloped forehead. Mrs. Houston sat near him in a chair plyiDg her i knitt mg needles vigorously. But .Frank seemed not to notice her. His deep blue eyes gazed away : into vacancy as if trying to solve an indefinable problem, iie did not notice how often the knitting : ceased to wipe a tear that came i unbidden from the faded cheek. l At length Frank broke the long j silence : ! "Mother, 1 don't think you ought o oppose in n gumS tu me mines " I I can do better there.' He paused i a moment, men continued: i saw i Joe Ellis today, and he says I can ' make from five to ten dollars a day I and not overwork. I just think : you might give your consent and , let me try." He run bis ringers j nervously through his soft, wavy ! hair, gave his mother a sheepish, 'side wise glance, and in a softer j tone continued : -T am sure I can ' get some one to take my place on I the farm, and it won't be so hard j on you to have a nice family in the i house to help alout the work and keep yon company." His argument seemed to bring him courage, as he closed he looked full in the pale, troubled face ot his mother. "You are sick, dear mother," he . said, quickly jumping to her side. ! All forgotten now but his mother. He hurriedly brought T cool drink ot wat. r and insisted on bathing her temples, though she insisted ; --ii. 'thing ailed her." A more de voted sun than Frank Houston never lived, but boy like he wanted to see the world. He imagined life was easier somew here else than here mi the farm. He longed to go out into the world and ''do something." About this time iron had been discovered in an adjoin ing State and marvelous reports were spreading abroad as to how people were "getting rich in a day." Some ot Frank's friends went, and wrote glowing accounts nf the boom" there. "Come, by all means, Frank : a boy like you can get rich in no time.'' they wrote. Poor boy ! he was all tire and am bition to join his elated comrades. 1 must go,'' he declared, after seeing doe Ellis, who had ju-t re turned from the iron mines. "I must go at any hazard," be said, and accordinfrlv made his int.en- tentions known to his mother who seriously opposed his move, as we have seen. They sat very quietly side by side, mother and son, fur a long time. At length Mrs. Hous ton took Flank's strong, brown hand in hers, wrinkled and old. and very quietly but firmly said: 'No one can take your place here, my son : I can't give you np, nor can y ou afford to give me up. No, l'rank, 1 can never give my consent for you sent leave our treasured home.'' The words were gently spoken, but they tla.shed like a dagger to bis heart: he scarcely felt the kiss so tenderly, lovingly impressed on his brow as she turned and left bim, all done in the dark, to light .. ituu ivil out that fearful battle; to deeide fnr man f Mia rnrnino. Tvni nl nf In' o fearful battle; to deeide life: to choose botween himself and his mother. He knew her opinion was well weighed before given and that it stood when given nothing conld change those words. It ain't right," he muttered, 1 desperately jerking up Li is hat ami rnshiD"; out the tmnt i;ate. "Other boys go and uet rich, and I think 1 mfoht. She i!..nt l.'ok at it l:k' I do!"

F.I'.sstr. M. I,a Ki'A . 'ryst al Springs, Mi--. Working- the Highways. In many sections of the Fast, there is a growing dissatisfaction with the old method of working roads, i. c. where each resident along a certain beat." or road section, woiks out his assessed time thereon. The general re-ult of such labor is poor roads. Feople nowadays want something better than is lurnishe 1 by tin- old road system, and the advent oi unproved road-Working implement.- shows that better load- aic easilv obtain able. The He vailing argu men t - against the contract system aic that person- not owning real estate or per sonal property are, of eoui.-,e, ex empt from taxation, and conse quently from mad-wniking; under the old system they are assessed one day at least, and niu-t work or commute. And taxpayers, already burdened, it may be, object to tin payment in cash fur labor which they can perform thcinselx es with out great inconvenience. Here the objection to the old system may be mentioned, vi... that labor on the highway is one thing, on the farm auomer. everyone knows that, as a rule, the day's work on the road is "cut short at both ends": that boy's labor often counts as man's labor: that thr loads are worked once in the spimg for all the year, and at a time when such work may not be most needed: that the day is often nothing more nor less than a holiday. Jf perfect roads are the desideratum, the old sy stem fails to furnish them, or enly in exception al cases. The contract system is more expensive until the road beds are once put m good order, then less money need be expended upon them. And vet. if a man values his time and labor ai the low price . 1)1 1 , V""''. I'' - II"' expense " , ! liir-'. "veieome. uere tne contract s-tem is a''Pttal and once lau I I ried n is of ti re.!!'.

A drilled well should be made deep, that it ma hold considerable watei. It nnt. it may too easily be pumped div. Moreover, the fine s.md generally present works its way. not only idling up the lower end of the easing, Init when the pump pipe is set low, and is pump ing fa-r, some of the line sand will be pumped up and lodge in t he y.dve. soon causing the valve to stay partly open, so that the pump will not hold water, but must be pinned for a new start. If tho well be drilled deep after it is first reached, a space can be allowed for tilling up. and the pump pipe need not be placed so near the bottom. But there is less danger of tilling up if the well be t horoughly clean ed oi pumped out after being sunk to the proper depth. This work, says the Inlntrial ( !i:t ttr, proper ly belongs to the men who drill the well, and should never lie omitted. A great deal of floating sediment, if imt removed then and there, will be a soiiicc of trouble ever after ward. In a iceeiit ca-e decided between architect and client at Albany, the client haing notified Ihe architect to stop work alter he had ordered specifications, details, and esti mates to be prepared on designs accepted by him, the client was compelled to pay three and a half per cent on the amount the build ing was to co-t. The referee based tins on one per cent for the sketch es and two and a half per cent for working plan-, specifications and details, and obtaining estimates. The architect sent in a bill for -.ViO. and the sum awarded him w as -117. oi for his t nm Me. evpense and woi k.

It is to be ol enormous size: and, as in 1S7S, the maximum altitude reached will be about three, thousand two bun dled and fifty feet.

G0OD READING. l.e always at lei-uietodo good: never make business an excuse for ! declining the offices of humanity. The 1'iiendsiiip of some people is; like our shadow, keeping close while we are walking in the sun shine, deserting us the moment we enter the shade. i We should earelully cultivate tin-' habit of active attention, on w hich 1 all the higher tpialties of mind de- : iend: the difference of the intellect in man depends more upon the ; dmi l -cultivation of this habit of1 attention than upon any great di-- : pari.'y between the power ot i me m dividual and another. "M boy." -aid a father to his son, "t rent everybody with polite-ne-s, even tlmse who are rude to on. For remember that yon show courtesy to others not because they ai e gentlemen, but be cause ynu arc niie." ( )f all the a nous debt s w li i eh w e owe to our febow-men. that of sil ence i- the one nmst frequently dis regarded. There are men w ho pry into the secret thoughts of their neighbors, probe their feelings, and show by xvordy curiosity how little they respect rightful privacy. This is often mistaken for good-Nvill and sympathy, bat it is far enough frmn that delicate - mpathy which, while ever glad to give help or comfort by word or deed, yet shrinks from 'rushing in where an gels fear to t read." A good name implies a reputation , founded on a good character making itself in a'good life. This or'that particular power or special virtue may not be prominent; but the root s of character must be growing: the vital principle of the moral life must be active. Just as a good name, among plants would : imply t hat they were steadily nn-i I'nM i n rr n) inrr ira nntm-al o t , I proper condition, from the lordliest oak ot the forest to the humblest daisy of t he field, so a good name among men implies a perfect re liance that the bases of character are strong and vital within them, developing each ono. according to his own nature and condition. Refrigeration and Shipping of Meat. Some shippers consider thirty-four degrees, Fahrenheit, the proper temperature for the refrigerator containing carcasses of beeves and sheep ; this temperature does not freeze the meat solid, it only chills, and when meats preserved thus are exposed to the outside air, they do not sweat nearly so much as if the temperature of the refrigerator had been noticeably lower. Other ac knowledged authorities on the sub ject contend that thirty degrees is the best temperature, but there is no doubt that this degree of cold causes, on exposure to common air, a heavier deposit of moisture on the surface of the meats thus treated. Meats have been held for eight w eeks in perfect condition, and with very sight discoloration of the surface. The degree of discoloration in meats varies con siderably, according as the animal has been fed during life. Still fed cattle deteriorate more quickly and far more seriously, than do beeves which shall have been grass-fed, and the tlesh of corn-fed beeves remains in the refrigerating process longer, without deterioration, than either of the former. Tho most frequent cause of injury to meats held in the coolingroom. is allowing tempera turo to vary. If by oversight, accident or neglect, the tempera ture has been allowed to vary considerably, irreparable iDjury is the result. The chilliug and thawing incident to frequent and sudden changes of temperature, de stroys fruits and injures meats to such a degree, that their relative value as food is decreased, tho ap pearance damaged, the delicacy of the flavor lost, and much difficulty experienced in cooking. The meats from Australia, which compete ou the British markets with American market are less liked than ours, solely because they are frozen hard and ours are pre ferred because they are only pro perly chilled.

Boys have often been reproved for for wardness in the company of their elders by having quoted to them the well-worn maxim, "Children should be seen and not heard;'' and vet there are occasions when the young may express their opinions with the greatest propriety. But before going ahead, they must first be sure they are right. An oflice boy, in the employ of a maker of models for inventors, once sat by the stove and listened to a customer describing a machine ho wished made. The machinist examined the drawings and saw a defect which would defeat the end in view. Jieing an uonesr man ne called attention to the fact, and suggested further study. The in ventor laid down his plans in dis gust, and remarking that he would idle for the moment the boy took th drawings and examined them, When the inventor came back the boy was alone. "I wonder how I can get over the difficulty?" said the man to himself as he glanced over the plans before putting them in his pocket. -The principle is correct. 11 1 ';U1 0Uli lVl ll- 'Thai's easy enough, -ir,'? said the bov.
