On Thursday afternoon occurred one
of the most pleasing events of the sea
son. A few of Mrs. Jorgunson's lady
friends hud planned for hr an'd
her husband a great surprise. Shortly
after the dinm r hour thu people began
coming to their hnmo from every direc
tion and apparently from every hill
nnd valley. The good man of the
house was in the held raking alfalfa,
but, seeing bo many teams driving into
the yard, thought he had better go in
and seo what it all meant. It did not
take him long to find out, for when he
came to the house he noticed everyone
was bringing dish pans and boxes heap
ed high with something t at made a
tired farmer feel rather hungry Now
the smiles began to broaden on this
good man's faco, for if there is one
man that likes good things to eat more
than another, it is Mr. Jorgensou.
After the table had bron laden with
all tho good things the farmers' wives
could think of, the good man and his
wife were escorted to their now and
commodious dwelling, and when sent
ed iu the pallor Mi, (iilroy, in the
presence of the immense crowd, with
a few well chosen and heartfelt re
marks presented to them, in bnhuif of
of their many friends, the beautiful
bedrosm suite that had bet n purchased
for them as a token of the esteem iu
in which they wore held iu the minds
of the people. If one has ever been
placed in Just such einumstances, ho
knows well enough how much was
meant by Mr. Jorgensou when ho
t'oultl only sav "Thank you." After
this tho guests wore seated at tho ta
bio Mind supper was served, followed
by dessert of ice cream anil berries
All enjoyed themselves, and it is need
less to say all did justhu to themselves
here, a9 elsewhere. As tho afternoon
wore away nnd night came on tho
crowd kept breaking, some, going to
their homes ngaing, othors sii 1 coming
to enjoy tho evening's entertainment,
which consistol of music and games.
Darkness came on, tho storm appeared
and, tho roads being so very bad in
pl'icns, somo of tho people wero de
tained until daylight. It was a time
long to bo remembered, for all were
made to fi el they were welcome by tho
kind-hearted manner in which they
wore treated by their host and hostess.

The story hud reference to a former
senator of the United States who was
sent to Russia as minister. There were
various evidences In the archives of
the legation that sobriety was not this
gentleiiiai 's especial virtue and among
them very many copies of notes In
which the minister, through the secre
tary of legation, excused himself from
keeping engagements at the foreign of
llce on the ground of "sudden Indispo
sition." Mr. Prince told me that one day this
minister's valet, who was an Irish
man, came to the consulate and said:
"Oi'U not stay with his Igsllllney iiimy
longer. Oi've done wld him."
"What's the trouble now?" said Mr.
Prince.
"Well," said the man, "this morning
01 thought It was tolnie to get his

When I llrst crawled In among the
bushes close to the nest the little
mother darted at me and poised a foot
from my nose, as If to stare me out
of countenance. She looked me all
over from head to foot twice. Then
she seemed convinced that I was harm
less. She whirled nnd sat on tho nest edge.
The bantlings opened wide their hun
gry mouths. She spread her tnll like u
flicker and braced herself against the
nest side. She craned her neck and
drew her dagger-like bill straight up
above the nest. She plunged It down
the baby's throat to the hilt nnd start
ed a series of gestures that seemed
fashioned to puncture him to the toes.
Then she stabbed the other baby until
it made me shudder. It looked like the
murder of the Infants. But they were
not mangled nnd bloody. They were
getting a squnre meal after the usual
humming bird method of regurgitation.
They ran out their slender tongues
to lick the honey from their bills. How
they liked it! Then she settled down
nnd ruflled up her brenst feathers to
let her babies cuddle close to her na
ked bosom. Occasionally she renche I
under to caress them with whisperings
of mother love. Country Calendar.
