"I don't know.hut this is xvhat I say:

"I promised my master not to let

So saying, he heaved the hag across
the slough that bordered the road and
the hedge beyo-id it into the next field.
This annoyed the highxvayman, but,
judging the prize worth the trouble.he
dismounted, scrambled over the dike
and fence higher up.aud laid hands ou

The train stopped again and again,

in the sxvcciucss cf security and the
wrftness of a cushioned seat the old
man dozed. The newsboy banged in
fine floor and banged out the other but
the old man moved no more than the
motion of the train made him. The
young couple in the next seat chatted
and inirirled especially giggled and
the Hex-. James Cook, senior, slept.

The train sloxved up xvith a loud hiss
and the wheels rolled into a station in

"The Kev. James Cook, senior!"
"1 don't care if he did," said the
feminine half of the young couple, with
a tilt of her head; "we're married."
And the old man stepped from the

hi-:i-'-oeia!cs. had at one time charge
fd the Hiialp:.!-. a tribe of Indians set
tled in tiorthxvc.slcrii Arizona. Old
Tommy, perhaps from his "deludlicrin'
tongue." had an almost miraculous as
cendancy over the chiefs and head men
of tiiis tribe, and, though his natixe
eloipience was seconded only by the
.-cantie.-i allowances of rations from the
sub.-i-tence stores of the camp, he xvas
loved and triite by these childlike
allies. To hear him coaxing back a
sulky xvarrior to good humor xvas
something to be long remembered.
"Come, noxv." he has been heard to
say, "shure. phat is de matther xvid
ye? Have yes iver axed me for any
thin1 that Oi didn't promise it to ye.?''
Yet Tummy's promises were always
kept.
Suddenly one day the Hualpais, like
a Hash of lightning out of a clear sky,
xvent on the warpath ami lired on the
agency buildings before leaving for
their stronghold in the Canon of the
Colorado. No one knew the cause of
their sudden treachery, and Tommy
IJyrne xvas one of those who realized
how much it would cost Uncle Sam in
blood and treasure if the outbreak were
not stopped at once.
Without waiting for his spirited lit
tie horse to be saddled he threw him
self across its back ami swept out into
the hills alter the fugitives. When
the Hualpais saw the cloud of dust
coming they blazed into it. but Tom
my waj untouched, and dashed gal
lantly up. his horse white xvith foam,
to the knot of chieis who stood await
ing him.
At lirst tli6 Indians were sullen, but
they soon melted enough to tell the
story of their grievances. The nexv
agent had been robbing them in the
most barefaced manner, and in their
ignorance they imagined it to be Capt
Byrne's duty to regulate all the affairs
in his camp. Thev did not want to
hurt him and xvould let him go safely
back, hut for them there xvas nothing
but the warpath.
"Come back xvith ni" said Tommy
gently. i win see mat xou are
righted."
Back thev xvent, folloxving that oik
unarmed man. Straight to the beef
scales proceeded the otlicer, and in a
fexv minutes he had detected the man
ner in which false weight had been se
cured by tampering xvith the poise. A
Texas steer, which xvould not xveigh
more than 800 pounds stood at 1.700.
and of course other articles followed in
the same ratio.
Tommy seized upon the agency and
took charge; the Hualpais were per
fectly satistied, and the agent left that
night for California. Thus xvas a bit
ter war averted by the prompt action
of a plain, unlettered man. who had
no ideas about managing savages be
yond that of treating them xvith kind
ness and justice. i'itiwfjo Trihune.
He Was Premature
An old farmer from one of the back
counties was the defendant in a suit
for a niece of land, and he had been
making a strong tight for it. When
the attorney for the other side began
his speech he said :
"May it please the court. I take the
ground "
The old farmer jumped up and sang
out :
-What's that? What's that?"
The judge called him doxx n.
"Mav it please the court." began the
attorney again, not noticing the in
terruption. "I take the ground "
"Ao. I Ii lie d d if you do, either,"
houted the old farmer: "anvhoxv not
until the court decides the case."
The tine for contempt xvas remitted.

Why He THfln't Kisc.
Detroit is a lovely city and every
body knows it. The love of it is bred
in the bone and never gets out of the
tle-h. The other Sunday a visiting
clergyman addressed the Sunday
school of an uptvixx n church. After a
serious talk he said to the children:
"All of you who desire to lix e in a bet
ter xvorid than this plca-e rise to your
feet." All the children rose except
one small boy in the corner. The
g I man looked at him in pained sur
prise. "My child." he .-aid very gent
ly and kindly, -xx hy don't x ou rise
xvith the otheir?"" "Detroit's good
enough for me that's xvhy," sung oui

New York Folly.
A gentleman who conducts her
aldic establishment in the neighbor
hood ef University place tells me that
there is a marked change in his busi
ness. "Formerly," he Maid, "the craze
was to be connected with the British
aristocracy. My volumes of Burke
and Debrett were black with re
searches. To-day they are almost un
touched. The mania is for colonial
times."
"Are there many families," I asked,
"that survive from colonial times?"
"Hardly any in the north," he re
plied. "And you may safely set iloxvn
the Association of Colonial Dames as a
humbug. Thv real colonial dames are
almost poor enough to beg in the
streets."
"Who, then," said I. amazed, "are
the persons parading as colonial
flames?"
"Nobodies," said he. "I create them
in this otliee. I connect them dis
tinctly it is astounding how mauy
distant connections a family can be
made to have xvith the Livingstones
or some of the older houses. Furnish
a xvoman xvith a pedigree and she is
happier than with a dozen nexv bon
nets." "But xvhat do the husbands say?" I
protested.
"th," he replied, "the husbands don't
care. They are t-ontout to go to the
club while their wives compare pedi
grees at home. There is money in a
business like mine." Truth.
Quite u Noticeable Ilifl'erence.
"D: t he men treat

eu ins trieiid.
"Yes: a little."
"More respectful to you. I suppose?"
"Ve-es, but that's not the most no
ticeable thing."
"Don't grumble when you ask them
to do anything, perhaps?"
"Not so much as they used to; but
thai isn't the greatest difference."
"Well, then, xvhat is?"
"Why, they alxxays laugh noxv when
I tell a funny storv."
"Beally?"
"O yes; and they seem interested
when I talk of the bright things my
children say and do."
The friend gave a dubious shake of
his head.
"Don't you let Blaine hear of that,"
he said.
"James (i. Blaine?" asked the other
in surprise.
"Certainly."
"Why not?"
"He'll be offering them foreign mis

Read This.
Teach Her,
Teach her that not only must she
love her father and 'mother, but honor
them in word and deed, says the
l adies' Home Journal.
That work is worthy alxxays when it
is well done.
That the value of money is just the
good it will do in life, but that she
ought to kuoxy ami appreciate this
value.
That the man who wishes to marry
her is the one who tells her so anil is
xvilling to xvork for her, and v V:
one who xvhispers silly love speeches
and forsrets that men cease to be men
when thev have no object in life.
That her best conlidaut is alxvavs
her mother, and that no one sym
pathizes xvith her in her pleasures and
joys as you ilo.
I hat unless she shows court. 'sv to
others she need never expect it from
them. and that the best answer to rude
ness is beni": nliml to it.
That when God made her body He
intended that it should be clothed
properly and modestly, and xvhen she
neglected herself she is insulting Him
who made her.
Teach her to think xxell before she
...
says no or yes. but to mean it when
he does.
Teach her that her oxvn room is her
nest, and that to make it sweet and at
tractive is a fluty as xvell as a pleasure.
Teach her that if she can sing or
read or draxv, or give pleasure in any
xvav by her accomplishments, she is
selfish and unkind if she does not do
this gladly.
Teach her to be a woman self-respecting,
honest, loving and kind, and
then you will have a daughter who
will be a pleasure to you alxvays, and
whose days will be long and joyous in
the land which the Lord hath given
her.
