snatched at it before it fell to the iloor , nnt1
.hero was a confused droop of her cjuivfcr
ing eyelids before her mother's questioning
$ anco. , Not a word was said , but Mrs.
Uayberry extended her hand , and .Tcuuio
dared not Ignore the unspoken request.
"What does this menu , daughter ? Jor
dan & Marsh's shop bill black silk sam
ples ! " said Mrs. Mayberry , slowly , ns she
.infolded the little package.
"I wanted to know what it would cost ,
came the reluctant words , as thcgiiTs nerv
ous lingers turned and re-turned tlio pages
of her history. "Oilier girls , lots of them ,
"Do what ? "
"Send for samples. "
"Without consulting their parents ? I
icpo not , Jennie. How could you ? "
There was no answer , and the question
was repeated. Hut before she had time to
eply , Mr. Maybcrrynnd Tommy , who had
ieeu busy over an hour in tlio barn look-
ng after the comfort of the little heifer
nd Nan , her mother , aud seeing that Jinks ,
lie old roan , and Daisy , the pony , were all
ight , and everything , about the premisea
ling and orderly , came hurrying in.
Mr. Mayberry , quick to read faces , saw
liat something unpleasant was under con-
idcration. Presuming it was the same
ubjcct graduation and its expenses
which had been talke'd over at tea time , ho
said : "I've been thinking it all over , Jen
nie , I can't bear to have you feel unhap
py and dissatisfied , and instead of giving
money for hiring music that day and eve-
ing I'll let the class have the use of our
> iano , you and Prndenco Winn can play
veil enough for anybody who'll bo there ,
low do you like that ? * I'll take it to the
ehoplhouso , and back again , too. " ,
Jennie did not answer. She had not re-
ovored her confusion , and only n sickly
mlle showed that she understood his sug-
estiou.
"A good idea don't you think somoth-
r ? " ho added , with a little chirrupy
augh , which Mrs. Mayberry answered with
mother but hers was forced and hollow.
Tommy saw the samples of silk , still in
is mother's hand. "Komcthing for my
ew jacket trimmings , is it1 he asked.
"Oh , no , Jennie , you might us well tell
'our fatlicr all about it , " was the response ,
n low sad tones. .
Jennie began to cry.
"Hi ! hi ! 'psaid her father , cheerily. "This

inshcd abide.
Mrs. Mnyberry laid Iho strips of silk
ipon the book. "What do you think of

"Those ? " ' Jio asked. "Why , what arc

"Is it bcs ( , for Joiinlo to ha\o a grodna *

"Our Jennie ? Our Jittlo Jennie rigged

Jennie had ceased crying , and now look
ed up anxiously.
"Never was 1 more in earnest , John. "
"W ll. I don't pretend to know about

Why , you ought to have solnothiug bright

"It would bo very serviceable,1' said Jen
nie , meekly.
"Serviceable how ? " queried her father.
"Your mother's dresses are always scrvipe-
able , and they are not silk. And then look
at the cost of it ! Ten flfttcn dollars I
suppose. "
"More tlinn double that , " returned Mrs.
Uayberry ,
"That settles the question. No , it will
not bo serviceable for my daughter not
at that price. " ,
"llufc If I gfct the school at Staplcton ? ' '

' "Certainly , with pleasure , " responded
Mrs. Mayberry.
"Thograduatlon , or commencement , ralh-

as a woman , " said Mr. May berry , "ought
to bo n joyful occasion , and yet a serious
and thoughtful one , ns you then lay aside
childish things and take the first step to
ward the sober realities of life. And I want
you to know , Jennie , that the first step
will have much to do In determining your
future course. Don't begin with show and
extravagance , then , oven if you that is
can afford it ; it would not bo right or bo-

"Mlko Unvdy hasn't nny overcoat , father ,
because Mary's got to to have n now gown

"And Mrs. Draylon told mo n fortnight
ago thai Hannah had left the High School
on account of the expense of graduation , "
'
said Ills'mother. .
"Well , I suppose there nre others 'in the

Ho said to mo the other day that ho

"All the girls are telling what they shall

Jennie , in a trembling voice.
"Think of it over night , dear. Yon have
had good teachers , and you are fond of
them , I know , and are attached to "your
males. You have had many happy hours
in tlio old school-room , and will wish to
look back on the lastdays spentthcro with
pleasant memories. Spend the money it

the most delightful recollection. "
"Now , please , let us drop tlio subject1
said her mother , laying the samples on her.
work-Blandand taking up Tommy's jacket ,
"Am I to'havo your help on the button
holes , dear ? " she added , quietly.
Jennie gave her a bright smile , gathered
up the bits of silk , went directly to the
stove and threw them in Iho fire.
"Hutloii-holcs , buttons anything you
say , " was her answer , as she sc.xtcd herself
on n stool at her , mother's side , that both
might sew at the same time.
"How about your battles ? Dates all
right ? " asked her father. ' % ctmo hcai
them. "
Iho recited them 'slowly and conuclly.
ending with a gay laugh , and saying : " 1
wrs determined to have them right. "
"And you have succeeded. Add anoth
er a victory for General Goodscnsc , at
Mayberry Point. What's the date1'
"Never mind. Graduation day we'll call
it , perhaps'and , having clasped her purse
with a vigorous snap , there was n tinkle
of its steel rings us she slipped it into her
pocket ; and then her skillful llngcis r.ln
rapidly through the mazes of button-hole
stitch. So Tommy's jacket was completed ,
aud ho was glad enough to have it readf
to wear the next day.
Graduation day was remarkably fair for
March. The school-room was crowded wjlh
the parents and friends of tliu pupils.
Everybody admired the decorations of the
evergreens and flowering plants , which Mr.
Mnyberry not only provided , but assisted
in arranging.
Not ono of the pupils passed more crefl-
itably through the exercises than Jennie
Maybcrry , and certainly not ouo looked
prettier than she in her modest gray dress ,
with n pink bow at her throat. More than
ono among the gentlemen visitors inquired
who that handsome girl in gray was "And
such cosy , charming manners , " added some ,
"And such a fine scholar , " said others.
The music only "Jennie Mayberry's
piano , and singing by the pupils" was liked
so well that persistent encore of the last
song brought its repetition ; during which
Mr. Mayberry , bearing a largo package ,
passed slowly up one of the crowded aisles
to tlio teachers' platform. When the sing
ing ceased , all eyes turned in expectation
towards him us ho care/\llly unfolded a
largo picture from its wrappings.
It was a fine engraving in a beautiful
frame. "My daughter's gift to the school
in memory of pleasant hours hero passed ,
laid Mr. Mayberry to the Principal.
A complete surprise was this , and every
body seemed astonished at the generous
gift. In a few words Mr. Maybcrry told
the story of its purchase. Then it was
hung on the wall back of the teachers'
desks.
And that is the way that the change in
the graduation exercises of the High School
at Mayberry Point was brought about ; and
why the pupils wear their everyday dresses ,
and furnish their own music , and make tlio
decorations themselves for that occasion.
The reason , too , that there is nbvoys such
n largo class to graduate ; and tlmt there is
less love of dress and finery among the
young people of the place ; and such good
boeks in its school library ; and so many
niso picturcs'ou thoHchool-roont walls ; and
those two Kogerrf groups in the corners.

Fruits ( br Canning' . ,
Since Iho preservation of fruits by can
uing has become so general , it is desirable
to know which varieties are best adapted
to the purpose. As a rule , those whobc
taste is sweet or insipid nro not desirable ,
while those tlmt have n decided flavor nre
to bo preferred. Black cap raspberries
sweet cherries laud blueberries are among
the poorest small fruits for canning , as their
flavor is insipid when they are in their
best estate , aud is impaired by the opera
tion of heating. Strawberries , though most
delicious when fresh , become somewhat in
sipid when cooked. Ited raspberries are
excellent when canned , but they should , to
preserve their fliuor and aroma , ho put up
as soon as they are gathered. Blackberries
are inferior to red raspberries , but if can
ned shortly after they are picked they will
come out in very good condition and bo
well relished , lied and white currants
contain too many seeds to bo very desira
ble. It is bettor to extract their jnlco and
to convert it into jelly. All who relish
black currants when iresh will like them
after they ha\o been canned. They form
an excellentsauco withoutfurthcr cooking ,
and are in good condition to UBO in pics iynl
turts. Gooseberries , if gathered before their
skins become tough , nro excellent after
they nre canned. They are especially do-
nirnblo for eating during the spring , when
the appetite craves acid fruits. IJarly lllch *
mend cherries , all things considered , nro
tlio best of all the small fruits for canning.
If managed with vkill they will retain
the color , form , flavor and aroma they had
when freshly picked from the tree. Mnt > t
kinds of plums nro good , but owing to
their slzo and finnu sn of their llesh they
require moro cooking. Of tlio sweet fruits
there is none belter than pears. ven Ul °
inferior varieties are excellent when canned.
Tlio quince is admirably adapted for can
ning purposes , being almost tlio only kind
of fruit that is improved by cooking. Be
ing scarce and expensive , there is economy
jn putting them in the samojars that con
tain apples or pears of infeiior flavor. The
larger varieties of crab-apples form a val-
ituble addition to the stock of canned fruits

JJX TA11I.ES TUnNKD. A If ACKMAN WHO
VNDKIISTANDS TIIK HULKS OF
KAIUtUAI ) TARIFFS.
A communistic person identified with
the dangerous classes of the Comstock and
notorious for big disregard of truth and
contempt for vested rights , has just return
ed from a visit to San Francisco. This
morning lie endangered iho good name of
the Chronicle by entering its cditoral room.
The nihilist declared that ho had "n good
tiling on Stanford and Stove Gage , " but he
supposed the ClironHc , like the rest of the
corrupt and time-serving press , would bo
afraid to publish It ,
"Tell your story , " said the editor with
dignity , gazing Inquiringly nt the boot of
the socialist , which was resting upon the
cditoral table. The boot remained there ,
however , while the following ridiculous
larratlvo was delivered :
It's flue weather at the bay , and every
body who can afford U takes a spin occas
ionally out of the dust and heat. Last
Saturday Stanford and Gngo were walking
iloug Kcarny Street , and when they got to
the corner of linshHno Governor took off
bis hat , wiped his brow and remarked :
"Stove , it's too hot for anything. What
do you soy to a breath of friah air ? "
"Havo wo time ? ' ' inquired' Mr. Gage ,
pulling ont Ills watch K < > did the Gover
nor. who replied
"Xhcro isn't anything very pressing 'for
a couple of hours , I guess , and we may ns
well take n spin out lo the park. It isn't
worth while to have ont my horses. Let's
take a hack , and then wo can enjoy n walk
when wo get there. It'll bo bettor than
riding around the drives. "
So they got into n coupe and wcro driven
out to Golden Gate Park. At the entrance
the governor and Gngo alighted.
"What's the fare ? " asked the governor.
"On'y $15 , gtiv'nur. "
"What ! " yelled Stanford and Gngo in
the same breath.
"Fifteen dollars , " repeated cabby , MB-
buttoning his coat and spitting on Ifts
hands.
"But my good man , " protested thegovei-
nor , "such u charge is exorbitant. The law
confines you to n reasonable price for your
cervices , and you can be arrested and pun
ished for such n violation of the ordinance.1
' the law ! " . "
Hang growled cabby. "My
money bought and paid for this hack nn'
hosaes , nu' ns Guv'nor Stanford said in his
letter to the New York Chamber of Com
merce , 'the essence of ownership is control. ' "
"Hem I1' coughed the governor , looking
slyly nt Steve , who began to grin. "That's
all well enough when applied to my rail
roads , but but cr , now if you charge us
tiflpcu dollars to bring up to the park , what
on earth would you charge us to tuko us to
thoCliffHou.se1'
"Five dollars.1'
"Fromhoro ? *
"No ; from the city. "
"But , it's twice the distance ! "
"Yes , hut it's a compctitiic point. Fifteen
vo the park , five to the Cliff. No hoggin'
about it. Through rates to the Cliff , local
rates baritn the nark added i"st as you
fellers do when > 'ou charge $300 for draw
ing n carload of stuff from New York to
'Frisco , and make it $800 if you drop the
car at Elko , about 600 miles nearer New
York. "
It WOB Steve's turn to cough and the
governor's to grin.
"Well , said the governor with n sigh ,
"tako us to thoCliff.1'
At the Cliff House the governor and
Stephen drank their beer and smoked a
cigar , and listened to the barking of the
seals , and filled their lungs with the sea-
breeze. Suddenly Steve , clapped himself
on the leg aud cried out :
"By jove , governor ! I forgot that lot of
coal of Smith's that the sheriff is to sell at
tf o'clock. It's 2 now. If wemisa that , a
chance to save'at least a thousand dollars
will bo gone. "
"Good heavens ! " cried the governor
snatching out lis watch , "let's hurry back
at once. Driver ! Oh , driver ! "
"Here , sir , " fmswcrpd cabby , who had
been leaning over the _ balcony parapet
within car-shot , "here , sir.1
"Wo want to return to to.wn immediate
ly , " ciicd Mr. Gage.
"Ya-as. I s'pose sn , " said cabby , slowl ?
chewing a'stiuw , "but I'lv tnko my pay In
advance , if it's all the same to you gents. "
The governor growled somewhat between
liis teeth and tendered him ? o.
"Tnint enough , " said cabby contempt
uously.
"In heaven's name , how far will your
sxtoition go1' snorted the governor.
"How much more do you want1'
"Five hundred more,1' calmly replied
the hackman.
"Hey ? ' ' bhriekcd Steve aud the governor.
"Five hundred , nn' not a cent less , " re-
ilicd cabby.
"How sir cr damme , sir ! how do you
dare ask such n price for driving two gen
tlemen four or live miles1' spurted the
governor
"I ba-so my charge on 'what the trajOiacilt
Zetir , ' same us the railroad doc ? , " replied
the hackmuu , with a 'grin. "If Inters is
scllin' in Los Augelos for filly cents n
bushel and nt $3 n bushel nt Tucson , you
acllcrs charge the poor devil of a rancher
$2.50 n bushel to haul his tutors to Tucson
