JULIA'S LETTERS. Susan TeaJl Perry, In Christian In telligencer: "Did you hear from Julia today, Mineryy?" asked Mr. Ford, a he sat down In the wee porch In the September sunshine. "Ye, father," replied the daughter, as he took a letter out of her apron pocket. "Jack Collins brought It this afternoon, when he earn heme from trading down at BlmTlIle." "Well, let's hear rt. I haven't got my glasses here. Hope they ar? all well." ' ' , The daughter read the letter frcm her lister, which, as usual, was full of com plaints and apprehensions of comlne disasters. When she had finished, Mr. Kord leaned back In the old porch rocker and paid: "It does b.:at all how much trouble Julia : lv.iiyn has. How Rood It would be It for once i-he would write a real good, ehcei ful li'ttor, Instead of an up Bet t inn, worrying sort of one." "Hornet irnctt I'm afraid Julia is not getting atom; a.s well as sho mirjlit bo. It does rsof reeiTi as IC she would write n if thiricH were KoliiH on l!:;ht. 1 don't know but I oucht to go out there1 this fall and aoe what the situation Is," his daughter rejoined. "Perhaps you had, Mlncrvy, but It wiil be terribly lonesome for me. I suppose Aunt Sally will come and keep me company; but she always goes tc leep In her chair when she sits down, so she isn't very entertaining. How ever, I guies I can stand It a couple of weeks." "Yes; but, father, It costs a good deal to go out to Julia's. I could not make the trip there and back for less than l'J. I would have to draw it out of the bank, and that would leave me only IjO on Interest; but If she is In trouble, I must not mind that." Mr. Ford took the letter In his hand, and. looking over It, aaid: "It eem that Albert ha a good place In the of fice of the Iron works, but Julia say he may lose It any time; and the little boy is well now, but the scarlet fever Is in the neighborhood and he Is quite sure to get It; and If he dies, It will go hard with him, because he is so deli cate. The little girl's eyes trouble her; Julia' afraid she will be blind. And iat tim she does have with the hired., help! I should think she would rather do her own work than to be bothered so. She doesn't seem to be well herself, either, does she? What Is this she says about her lungs being weak? There never was any lung complaint on my side of the house, nor on your mother' side." Mr. Ford got up and went Into the tiiraw. u was supper time, antl ni daughter followed him. He was In his hlrt aleeves, and she got his coat and helped him to put it on. His arms were very lame, as he had been cutting corn all day; but he did not speak of U. He asked the usual blessing at the table and added a petition that the Father In heaven would bless Julia and her fam. lly, and keep them from sickness and danger. A wall of the father's prayers had been about Julia "goings In and comings out" ever lnce she left the old home. . uont in hed that ixmifBi.r, - . nlKht did sne iurn over n.m .. . ... mind the troubles and cares of her ynunger slxtcr in me ir u full of them, nut nominB 1 cheery letters went from the old home t hrr.

It did not seem po Blble that Julia would write urh co;n I)laliilnK 1. Iters unless she had real troubhw. and before Minerva went to sleep she had made up her mind to leave Aunt Sally with her father and go out west and find out for herself how things were going with Julia. Had sh not promised the dying mother to be a tecond mother to her young r sis ter, Julia? . And so Minerva went, and the father watched each day for a letter, that would come as soon as she arrived. When It came and he read It, he gav . .i.h of relief. "Julia and r roiKs laid to Are getting: on first rate, he Aunt Bally. "Just exactly what I expected," Aunt Sally replied. "Julia was lV com plaining and stirring folks up, expect In some dreadful thing to happen.

Julia's husband had food position, and there was no reason to think he wduld lose It The scarlet fever had moved out of the neighborhood, and the little boy did not get It HI sister's eyes were better, and the doctor said there was nothing serious about the case. Julia had had a severe cold, brourM on by her own Imprudence, but was entirely over It and Minerva wrote' that Julia never looked so well in her life. , The father thanked God for hla good ness to hi child, and wondered why Julia did not appreciate her blessings and thank God for them, and stop uch complaining. After Minerva had been at her slater's a few days, a telegram came to her. Her father was very ill and wished her to come home on the flrat train. Aunt Sally had sent It. Julia wondered how her sister could be so calm. She "had gone all to pieces," cbe said, heating uch terrible news. If anything had happened to father, It must kill her, she knew. She could not help her sister te get ready for the return Journey. She annoyed and hindered her by the dread ful foreboding she kept telling. "Could Aunt Sally hsve been ever anxious In the matter?" she naked. But Minerva quietly said: "Aunt Sally Is not an alarmist, Julia. She never sent that telegram unless it wa a necessity. Whatever comes the Lord will give m strength to meet It. I trust Him." Minerva made the return Journey and found her father very ill. Just as she thought, he had not remembered to put on heavy clothing when the weath er became colder. He had been used to his daughter's quiet ways of getting the things he needed at hand for him at the proper time. H was a long and trying Illness, and when the father got ubout again, he knew It had be n a hard pull, and he .1.1 naei. M ftlrilllir R m i n Vet Minerva's letters were always hopeful ones to her sister. She made no men tion of her weariniES from the loiifr, anxious watching and waiting, neither did fihe tell how Hying the shiftless boy she had hired to do the farm chores was nor that the potato crop was almost a failure. Why should she worry Julia with things that she could not mend? There Is a bright side to everything, if we will only look for It. Minerva was one of the elect, of whom some one says: "The elect are those who put life Into one who give courage to the faint hearted, hope out of their own con stancy." "If I were only calm and trustful like Minerva," thought Julia, "how much easier life would be for me and all those who are dear to me. I must try and see the bright side of things, a Minerva docs, and learn not to put burden on other people's should, era." Aunt Sally remarked, when Julia's letters were read aloud In the family after Minerva's return home, that Julia did not write such upsetting things as she used to, and really seemed to have learned to see a better way of looking at life and its dally cares and duties. Just an Ordinary Old Coin. "Say," said the street car conducto. to a mild-mannered man who was deeply engrossed In his newspaper. "Say, young feller, I don't want this quarter. I can't use It." The mild man continued to hold out his hand for the change, but paid no other attention to the conductor. "See here!" yelled the conductor, get ting red In the face, "you can't pass no quarter like that on me. It's sliek. I lab. t tn fr The mild man looked up and said: "I'm sorry, because you gave me that very quarter yourself last night, and I've been laying for you since. Well, give It here." He took the quarter and gave the conductor a nickel. A he took the quarter from the conductor he suddenly dropped hi newspaper and gave a chuckle. "Well, well,' he exclaimed, "here's luck. Bless me, If that Isn't an 1832 quarter with fourteen star and an arrow. It's worth 13.82." He slipped it Into hi pocket with evidence of much 'satisfaction. t,nn-rv-eved man In the comer, ( overneard the conversation, , J r)(.d up an,i said to the conductor: "Isn't that the quarter I gave you yesterday morning? I mlssid that quar ter. It was a pocket-piece and a valu able coin. I remember now that I gave it to you! I demand It!" he said, looking fiercely at the mild man. "If you are a gentleman you will give It to me." "It Isn't yours. You never pave it to me. My wife gave It to me by mis take; It's part of a collection that's been In the f-itnlly since 1S27!" yelled the conductor. "I tell you It's mine," said the hungry eyed man. Thus they wrangled and querreled all the way down town. "No," raid the mild man to a nclRh- .. . i, .,,.nr.ed from the car.

There was recently reprinted in The Sun, from a Western newspaper, a paragraph about the disinterment and reburial of a body in a cemetery, be cause ,lt had been buried in the wrong way. Hie undertaker, so iur olo graph said, "was a new man at the business, and the body - was placed with its feet to the west. The rela tives recalled the fact, ajid would not be satisfied until the remains were ex humed and turned with tin- feet to the cast, in accordance with the popular custom. Kew York undertakers say that hereabouts bodies are buried accord ing to the situation of the burial plot; with the feet to the path iu trout, however that may bring the body with regard to the points of the coin pass. It was a common custom in old Jpmes to bury Uie dead with the feet a the east, so that when they should rise, on the day of resurrection, they would rise facing whence the sum mons was expected. There are. it is said, whole churchyards filled with dead, all facing eiud; but with the growth of cities, and of cemeteries outside of churchyard burying grounds, this practice fell into disuse. Cemeteries were variously situated, to start with; and then they were laid out in such a manner as to bring the land within them most advantageous ly into use. Obviously, for illustra tion, of a double tier of lots joining at the back and each tier facing on a path, one tier of lota would face one way, and the other tier in exactly the opposite way. A body buried in any of those lots, facing either way, would be buried with the feet to the path upon which the lot fronted; so that the bodies in the two tiers or tuis double tier of lots would face in exact ly opposite direction; and it might be that neither faced exactly Knxt. In laying out cemeteries there are likely to be curving roads, and there might be roads crossing diagonally; with the result of Home plots of irreg ular nhape. and some triangular; ami there are lil.ety to be found in ceme teries nome circular plots. Iu a circu lar plot that was er.ciosed by other land, it might be that the grades would be made with the feet toward llie monymerit at the center of 1he plot, if, ns would more likely be the case, the circular plot had a path around it, then the bodies would be placed with their head to the central monuments and their feet to the path, the graves radiating from the center; and ho lying as to the points of the compass, in various directions. In triangular plots the bodies might not be interred with feet to a path, but lengthwise of the plot in its longest section in this or other irregular plots they would be buried as' they could be most appropriately to the plot. But in most lota it is possible to bury the body with the feet to the path antl this is now without regard to the com pass points substantially the common practice. And if abody weredisinterred from one lot and reintered in another it would, upon its interment, be placed with its feet to the front of the new lot whether this faced in the same di rection as the old one or not. It is the location of the lot that governs; the practice being to bury with the feel and thus, of course, the face, toward the path. Hut while the direction in which bodies shall lie buried is nowadays commonly thus determined, there: are those who still prefer to be' buried facing east; and who accomplish that result simply by buying a lot that faces in that direction.

They are rich in thrift and honestly and what the New Knglanders call faculty and richer yet in the four bright children who go to school every day. Hut they say they are poor, and Sep tember was not ended until they luy awake nights talking together about the advance in coal. The manly man has an income of just so many dol lars a week, and the womanly wife thought she had been saving every possible cent in her splendid house hold economics. But here was coming another cleft in the rocky geography of their life that had to be bridged in some way or other. So, they lay awake nights wondering how ihv would do It, and never reaching the solution of the problem. Hut they did more than lie awake and think. The only way seemed to lie to use less coal. The window pane thnt had been out all summer a tiling thut in July was put oft till tomorrow was replaced.
