A Hirer Intensely Malt.

Its waters are pure and fresh from the

lountalns, to within fifty miles of tho
place whero It empties into tho Gila.
Fifty miles from its junction with tho
Gila there cornea into it a stream of
water that is intensely salt. This stream
pours out of the side of a largo moun
tain, and Is from twenty to thirty feet
deep. It is very rapid, "and poura into
the Salt Klver a great volume of water.
Here could easily bo manufactured suf

the stream flows ia largely composed ot

Maid Mullen
Maud Mullor, aa Whlttier drew her,
waa a comely young woman in a briar
torn dress and ragged hat, innocent aa
to shoes and stockings, who helped her
father during the nuy haying-time,
hired help being scarce and high. This
was certainly. commendable in Maud;
though as ahe paused in her work, and,
leaning on tho rake handle, glanced to
the far off town, ahe oouldn'tneln wish
ing that Fato had cast her lot different
from a meadow lot, and that she wa a
clerk in a nlncty-nlne cent store, or
something liko that. She asked herself
whether tho life of a female book-can
vasser was so very hard, and wondered
If any lady clerks were wanted in the
iMMtotlice.
While she Is thus reflecting, tho judge
comes riding slowly down the lane.
Whlttier doesn't tell us what ho is judgo

good judge of rustio beauty, for he drew
his bridle (at some church fair) and
asked tho maid to bring him a draught
of water from a convenient pring, al

I reckon not! I'd have a new gown

How alxitit the judge as he rodeawav
Was he tilled with a "vague unrest?"

but cold-hearted lady who moved (every

only accepted hint because sho thought
it would sound well to be spoken of in
the socletv column of the newspapers
as "Mrs. Judge So-nnd-So." Anilsome

she clinched on to the hired mini.
Hut Maud wasn't hnppy either, for

LITTLE IlUYfl.
My grave, earnest boy stood beside
my chair, his large dreamful eye fol
lowing the course of my ran Idly mov
ing pencil, nnd said softly, "Mama have
you written the letter for little lioys
yetP" " Not yet, my son," I said; " I
will soon, though." "O, In a day or
two." The blue eyes tilled with a vague,
wistful lluht. and a sigh fluttered up
from his little heart perhaps at the
memory of his oft-tried piitlenro his
own little disappoint ment, and he said,
low and softly, " Mamma, I'm afraid
tho little bnya will get tired of waiting."
The reproof was so gently given, tho
reproach so uniu'entional, nnd jet so
efficient, that 1 drew the fair facu'iip to
mine, nnd kiing him, said, "I will
write it to-night," and the little satis-
tied heart had 110 thought that the moth
er would not keep her wont.
I wonder if tho little boys over real
Ire what a blessing they'are to their
mothers In the house, as well to their
fathers out of it. I know mothers oft
en fret because of their Irrepressible
spirits and many wild pranks; but I
know equally well that no mother
among them "all, would willingly miss
tho sound of their happy voices, tho
sparkle of their bright eyes, the clatter
of their little muddy boots, or the litter
of their busy hands. In one corner of
my sitting room tho cosiest in the
whole houso stands a littlo square box;
covered with chalk marks and scratches
and scars; tho fastening long ago gone,
and ono hingo brokon, and in that box
I could never tell yon what It con
tains! Such a treasury it is, though,
to the little black-headed boy with blue-
ray eyes, whoso quaint, old-looking
ttlo face bends over It so lovingly;
whose littlo brown hands add daily to
ita store, and who often empties it on
t,ho carpet, spreading carefully about,
covering a very large space with such
endless numbers of empty spools, nails,
screws, masses df tttrYglcd string, mar
bles, tops, letter blocks, bits of bright
paper, nieces of rusty iron, bits of
shell and broken crockery toys which
seem to havo been through the wars,
and O, most precious of all I an asth
matic mouth organ, which long ainco
lost tho power of uttering any sound
save tho tuost apasmodia gasps and
phthislcy Walls. There are wonderful
things among its contents, after the lit
tle busy brown he ail is safely laid away
upon its pillow, and I gather up the
scatered garments, tho littlo wrinkled
hoots, the mud-stalmd pants with pie
thorlo pockets, the torn and bu,ttonlenn
jacket, the gaily stripped stockings,
stili rounded out with the impress of
the tireless little limbs, I glance tender
ly at the littlo disabled box and bruised
a'nd battered rocking chair, which all
day long has seemed possessed with a
desire to trip, and wonder how I could
find so much fault with our little noisy
boy. And so, in my heart there is a
warm spot always for the bright little
fellows whom nobody appreciates right
ly, except their mothers. What house
hold in all tho land could do without
them 1 Mothers often say they don't
know what to do with their boys"; what
could they do without them ?

A child who gives away his toys and

A child who holds a good grip upon his
own toys and breaks those of his neigh

of character, which am all through a
lifotlmo the same, underlio all change
and can never bo eradicated, although
they may bo modified. The stoio com
