At p res­ent she was m ak ng a roly-poly for dinner, and had been g rea tly agg rava t­ed, for, natu ra lly , she desired to see w hat she was doing, and had draw n the cu rta in back—and a wagon full of boarders from C aptain 1 eeler’s ha 1 driven past, every one tu rn in g his head to stare.

recovering h e r am iability, an I sm iling over the huokleberries, “ I suppose it is in te resting to those who like it, and I don’t care un til those g rea t droves of sum m er boarders rush down here, and keep flying by, all rigged u;’. g laring in a t the windows, w ith th e ir white feath­ers and red parasols and black m us­taches, w hen I ’m cooking at the w in­dow s in my calico frock.

This speech, incom prehensible as it m ig h t have been to a foreigner new to th e language, was quite intelligible to the I erson to whom it was addressed, w ho answ ered, slowly;

“ You favor your grandm a, M ahaly,” continued the old m an, “ and she was -called the belle of Elm tow n w hen I courted her. She had forty-tw o offers of m arriage, and 1 was the worst, and she had m e.”

“ I’ve never had one y e t,” said M a­hala, ro lling up tfie dum pling in its cloth, and looking into tlie Doillng pot as she carefully dropped it in. “ W nat is m ore, th ere ’s no one to m ake me one. 'N ot a single young m an in the p lace.”

“ Perhaps one will pass by on a team . T h e n you won’t d e sp ise ’em so,” said th e g randfa ther. “ I know a gal th a t liven away up on a m ounting, and not a l ir in ’ soul cam e by once a year, and

“ I t ’a Mr. A rcher. He’s sho t,” panted the boy. “ He’s aU b lo o d ; I guess ha’s dead. Send the doctor. Don* t let them hang m e : I didn’t do it a p u tp o sa He gave me his gun to hold, and it went off.”

“ Ef he’d know ed you as well as I do. Bill, he w ouldn’t hev given i t to you to hold ,” said the old m an ; “ but you won’t be bung. W here is he ? Mahaly, go h u n t up your father. Here, come a ong, show me where he is.”

'Away w ent the old m an and the boy. In a m inute more the doctor, who had been tu rn in g his pum pkins in the little field behind the house, was seen to leap to the fence and run up the road after them , w ith his glasses on his forehead, and straw in his hair, and M ahala, s it­tin g on the porch to quiet down, soon saw a sad procession advancing : the doctor, his father-in-law , and two farm laborers, bearing amoAgst them a shutter on which lay a figure in dandy sports­m an’s a tt ire —all bloody and bem ired— Billy follow ing behind with gam e-bag, gun and cap, and o ther portable prop­erty.

“ Is it serious, papa?” asked Mahala.“ Go open up the bed in the spare

room, and go over to your aun t’s and stay until 1 send for ' on, if you feel like fa in tin g ,” replied the doctor.

M ahala obeyed the first behest, but did no t go to ber aun t's . She sat in the k itchen w atching her dum pling, and feeling rem orseful.

“ T h a t was the young m an who stared so. Ah! he is no t s ta ring now, poor fel­low! And how handsom e he was; and, a fte r all, a cat m igh t look upon a King. And it was not his fau lt th a t she had on her old calico, and perhaps it had not been an im pertinen t stare, b u t one of adm iration .”

M ahala began to cry softly, and kept a t it, oflf and on, for a long while. T hen h e r old g rand fa ther came into the kitchen.

“ Don’t cry, ch ild ,” he said, coming up behind her and p a tting her on the back of her soft, w hite neck—such a p re tty tiling m a p re tty woman. “ Don’t cry. Your pa has go t the bullet out, and I reckon he won’t die this lim e.”

A fterw ard, as he was eating liis roly- poh% the old gentlem an suddenly be- gaii:

“ M ahala, I know ed a gal th a t lived aw ay atop a m ounting, and no t a livin’ soul come past once a year; and one of them young engineers was sen t up to m easure th a t m ounting, and he w anted a d rink of water, so he jest stepped up to the door of her p a ’s liouse, and—”

B ut again the old gen tlem an’s story was in te rrup ted by his son-in-law’s ap­pearance, and he devoted himself to his p late, and said no more.

The young m an who stared, slowly recovered in the doctor’s spare bed.- room. He wa.s very thankfu l to every­body, and very anxious to let them know it. The doctor, who was tlie least m ercenary of men, refused to oiler a bill, though lie had really saved the young m an’s life; bu t he was gratified by a le tte r from the young m an 's m oth­er, in which she called on Heaven to bless him; and, finally, Mr. Archer, w ith his aiTU in a sling, sa t about on the porch, or even apiiroached the kitchen door w itliout reproof.

A fter he re tu rned to C aptain Peeler’s he was constan tly to be seen on the road, and it was gradually understood th a t he was a young m an of high so­cial position, the iieir to a large fortune, and already possessed of am ple means.

“ Indeed ,’’ said Mrs. Peeler, who called on M ahala one day— “ indeed, my dear, I th ink he already go- s to first-class hotels; but Miss Beaucham p was brought to us by her grandm other, who likes quiet; and he followed. He adores h e r—so h er grandnrother tells me. I th ink it will be a m atch. She’s the young lady w ith the w hite feathers and the red parasol imd the black eyes. You’ve noticed ber? Very handsom e.”

“ Yes, she is,” replied M ahala, short­ly; and she lost her tem per again th a t (lay, I reg re t to stnte, and pulled the curta in across th e \Yindow, and w rote: “ No Adm ission,” on a slip of paper, which she tacked to the kitchen door.

“ T h a t isn’t for m e f ' asked Fred A rcher from w ithout, hs he spied it.

“ She m ust have w anted to know them less afte r she had seen one,” snapped M ahala, actually w alking out of the kitchen.

“ W omen folks is curions,” said her g randfather, ligh ting bis pipe.

One evening, M ahala sat alone in a little arbor, aU covered with wisteria. She was very unhappy. In less than a m outh she had j ^ n e th rough a g rea t deal. She had m llen in love, ha^ all sorts of sw eet fanuiea and thought her­self the happiest giyl in oreation. W ith Mrs. Feeler’s call u l this had come to an end.

F red A rcher had only been flirting with her, and was engaged to the girl, with white feathers and red paraso l

She was angry -insulted; very, very mis­erable. She was forever try ing to think of some m eans by which she could prove to Fred A rcher th a t she nevercared for him. But, a las! he knew she did to w ell

“ As if a rich city m an like th a t would really have come out here to court the village doctor’s daughter. W hat a fool I was !” said M ahala to herself.

T hen she s ta rted and gave a little scream . Fred Archer was looking in a t ber, w ith one hand on e ither side of the only entrance.

“ M ahala,” he sard.She answ ered, “ Mr. A rc h e r;” and

her h ea rt beat like a drum when she spoke.

“ I t is absurd. W hat have I done th a t I should be called Fred no m ore?” asked the young fellow.

“ Oh, you’ve done no th ing ,” replied M ahala. “ N othing a t a l l ”

“ T hen w hy are you angry?” asked Fred.

M ahala cooley responded ; “ 1 am not angry. Mr. A rcher. If 1 wore, why should you care? if it were Miss Beau­cham p, indeed—”

“ Bliss Beaucham p!” cried Fred.“ The anger of the lady one is en­

gaged to m ight m a tte r .” said M ahala; “ but a m ere aoquaintance like me! You w onder th a t I know, I suppose. Mrs. Peeler m entioned i t I congratu late you. Miss Beaucham p is very stylish and handsom e.”

“ Mrs. I’eeler is a confounded old basy-hody!” cried Fred Archer. “ And Bliss Beaucham p is a —a —young person in ten t on g e ttin g a rich husband. Stylish! Handsom e! I thought you had better ta s te .”

“ Mrs. Peeler seem ed to know every­th in g ,” said Blahala. feeling happ ier than she had for some time.

“ She knew too m uch,” said Fred, discontentedly. “ And you were pleased. You did not care. You— Ah, well— Good evening .”

“ W o n 't you sit down?” asked Mahala, meekly.

“ You have not asked me before,” said Fred. “ 1 w ill P m not a t all well. I shouldn’t w onder if m y lungs were in ju red by th a t bullet, a fte r a l l ”

“ Oh. Fred, don’t say so!” said M ahala.

“ W ould you care?” asked Fred.“ P m no t a Hend," said Blahala.“ Blahala, I w ant to tel! you som e­

blocked out the m oonlight, anri her g ran d fa th e r stood a t the entrance look­ing a t them.

“ You’re quite a s tran g e r,” said this am iable old m arplot, no t guessing how they both wished him away. “ I’ve been w onderin’ where you’d go t to. I enjoy a ta lk w ith you. Did I ever tell you about a gal I knowed that lived up a m ounting, so far up th a t she’d never seen a young m an in her life—only her pa and such?”

“ Oh, d o iil tell th a t , g randpa ,” cried Blahala.

W hile in M ontrenl I heard a itorjr of Sir P e te r M itohell. m em ber of P arlia r m ent fo r N ew B m ntw ioh . of w boni I ■poke in a recen t le tte r. He was a n opposition m em ber d u rin g the lamenttt^ bie G overnm en' of S ir Jo h n M aokensie in the l is t deoade, an d was a oon ta n t ar d m ost uuoom fortable tbo ro in th e side of tha t unhappy P rem ier. S ir John was a conspicnoos rai road m ag­nate, and ju st b e fo re 'th e o pen ing of Parliam ent one w inter Sir P e te r oailed on him to imluce him to pay fo rty dol­lars for a widow’s cow th a t had, been run over by the oar.s. “ I don’t boliovo there’s anything in it,” exclaim ed th e Prem ier, perem ptorily; “ i f .s probably a trum ped-up case, bu t 1* 11 iminire, a n d you call to-m orrow .”

The g e n fe m an from New Brunsw ick was not u-ed to being trea ted so caval­ierly, but he pocketed it, and called in the m orning.

“ T here’s no justice in i t We won’t pay lo r the cow,” broke in Sir John .

“ You won’t; won’t you?” rejoined Sir Peter, with a m anner quite as bounc­ing as iha t of the leader of the Govern­ment. “ Have you been there, or sen t there and investigated it?”

“ No, 1 haven 't; b u l l won’t pay for the cow. I t’s a m ere trifie, and she ought to have keptotl the track .”

“ Don’t the law say you shall have a fence?” ’

“ I won’t pay for the cow, now; an d th a t’s all the answ er you’ll g e t.”

“ Yon won’I pay for the widow’s cow; won’t you. Sir Jo lin M ackenzie? I will make you pay for it,” exclaim ed S ir Peter, now thoroughly aroused.

“ You will; you will! How will you?” grow 'ed the Prem ier.

“ I’ll take it ou t du ring the session, as sure as you are a living man. T he widow’s forty do! ars isfi’t anything, isn’t it? I ’ll lake it out of you!’’

I t was an Irishm an against a Scotch­m an and both were angry. The sequel proved th a t Sir P e te r took it ou t of him very thoroughly. He is a roundheaded man, a hard worker, a pugnacious a n d redoubtable foe, an unforgiving enemy, bold ande legan tin debate, no dile ttan te , bu t a hard hitter, and some of his on­slaughts w ere furious. If he had n o t g rea t tact he had g rea t for e. and h e never forgot the i ow. In the spec hes he m ade every day against the m easures and m ethods of the Governm ent, then under serious suspirion, he to ld the story of the cow and tro tted her ou t with a frequency th a t m ust have seem ed like cruelty to anim als.

Finally the last day of the session, dawned, and the consideration of Mac­kenzie’s expense budget was resum ed. I t proviJed the appropriations for th e coming year.

Sir P e ter M itchell took the floor and launclied into a eulogy of the deceased cow and the proprie ty of m aking an appropriation for the widow. He was gree ted w ith laugh ter and m ocking apulause, and then his auditors waited uneasily for him to finish. He did not finish. He continued. He told the story over again w ith em be'lishm ents and elaborations. Ho on trasted the stingine.'S of the w ealthy ru le r w ith the quiet endu ian e of the penniless willow. He began to read from the Bible the commami.s to m er y, justice and charity , when the honorable mem­bers stragg led out one by one to dinner. Sir P eter bit a binscuit, d rank a swallow of w ater, and continued, im pressing upon the em pty cha rs about him th e tender duties and graces of hum anity. Blemnors striiggled in again, He ([not­ed the Song of the Shirt. T hey ap­pealed to him to draw his rem arks to a close. He told tlie story of the cow. Bleantirae, Sir Jo lm Ma keuzie was persjiiring with w rath and anxiety in the r re m ie r’s apartm en t hard by. All his hopes w ere bound uii in the a 'p ro- jiriat on budget. W hat if it should no t come to a y o te ! The honorable m em ber from New Brunswick could not be stop­ped, for this was the one bill in th e Canadian Parliam ent on which a m em ­ber could speak as loug as he wished. T here was no way of cutting short th e debate. No motion was in o rder while he was speaking, except the m otion to ad journ—an I that would be ad journ­m ent .■'■riir (/tr. The G overnm ent m em ­bers were in consternation as the o ra to r delivered a speech on the blessings of vaccination, gave s ta tis t cs on the cost of fences in the U nite I States, passed an elaborate encomium on the superior­ity, for d ra ft purposes, of Dei on cattle, to which class the de eased ( om estic friend of the bereaved w dow belonged, and then began to describe the religious cerem onies in which the sacred cow of B urm ah takes p art, when the bell ran g for vespers. A shori tim e m ore an I the season would exnire by law, and the (iovernm ent had passed no approjiria- tion b i l l !

At th is critical jun tu re one of the G overnm ent m em bers re tu ned excited­ly from the P rem ier’s room, ru sh e l to the o ra to r’s desk, and excla 'm cd ; “ In the nam e of God, w hat ails you, Mitch­e ll? W hat do you w a n t? ” “ —S ti l l” said Sir Peter, finishing the sentence he had on his lips’ “ not a < ent has ever been paid for the widow’s cow!” The m em ber u ttered a vehem ent exclam a­tion about th a t anim al,and added ; “ Sir Jo h n M ackenzie aifihorizes nae to say th a t he will pay for the cow if yon’11 le t th is bill come to a vote.”

•Sir P e ter sat down, rather tired, a n d the widow got her pay. The G overa- m en t organs declared tha t the widow’s cow cost ¥40,000.

Overwork Upon Railways.

I t is sta ted on good authority th a t a m ajority of all the collisions th a t take place are due to this caus(*. A correspondent of the New York 7 has been invo tigak ing the m atter, and came across such cases as the lollowing; A s 'aion-keeper saitl that he had often ilagged a tra in and found the eng ineer fast asleep, the conductor snoring in bis cab. and only tho fire­man aw ake lo obey bis signal.

Why agystwiona Pbyalenl Troubles Ajrousu •pwolBl Dread—A ProlWsalonal

JBxpertsnoe.

fbw tblngs give more pain than dread or prsbenslua Moat people are able to free *p< parent danger heroically, but the sudden unexpected oomiag ot some Indefinite eslami­ty very naturally strikes terror to even the brsveat. Fur this reason lightning sad to^ nsdoea are considered terrible; their coming and going are so sudden, unannounced end unknown. For this same reason an unknown disease, seme poison In the bloo<l, some mala­dy that Is gradually ondermlulng the life, Is specially dreaded 1^ <dl thinking people. And, Indeed, there are good reasons for such dread, for modern science has discovered that some virulent disorders show tbs least signs in their beginnings, whUe they have the worst possi­ble symptoms. We know of many persons who have dull and uncertain pains in various portions of the body: who are unnsturslly tired one day and apparently well the next; who have an enormous appetite at times and a loathing of food soon thereafter. Such per­sons are really in a dangerous condition, even though they may not realize it. The follow- ii^ statement of a most prominent physician, who has had unusual opportunities for investi­gation, Is of so striking and Important a na­ture that it will be read with interest by all:ASSOCIATED CHABITIBS OF OINCINNATL

Cincinnati, O., Deo. 2, 1882.) Meesrt. Editor*:

1 have, during my professional career otears’ prastlce, treated a large number

of varfons disorders, of which, perhaps, none have given me more trouble than the myste­rious disease known as aente nephritis; and while It may seem strange, it ia, nevertheless, true, that the physician is generally greatly annoyed by this mysterloua trouble, especially when the case Is of hereditary origin. It is, doubtless, the first stage of the well-known, but terrible Bright’s disease, as the kidneys contain large quantities of albumen; and while children and young people are esi>eclal- ly liable to its attacks. It Is prevalent with all classes, and usnally continues until late in life.

One obstinate case which came under my observation, was that of a fireman of this city who apnlled to me for treatment. The case was diagnosed parenchymatous nephritis. The man was twenty-four years of age; ple­thoric and light complected. He stated that he bad suffered from urinary troubles from childhood, and that he bad “ doctored” a hundred times, each time Improving some; after which. In a short while, he would relapse into his former state ot misery. 1 prescribed the usual thera|>eutlcs known to tne profes­sion with the same result that my colleagues had obtained. He got better for a while and then worse again; in fact, so bad that he bad to lay off for some time. He suffered intense pain; so much so that I confess I had to re­sort to hypodermic injections of morphia. My druggist, who knew how disgusted I was with the case, although not willing to desert the man, advised me to try a remedy from which be (the druggist) himself had derived great benefit. As a drowning man catches at a straw, I prescribed this remedy, not letting my pa­tient, however, know what I was giving him; and. although nut a believer In nor a patron of patent medicines,” I must confess that after my fireman bad taken one bottle he grew much better. I made him continue Its use for a period of two months, with the most gratifying results; it really worked wonders, and he owes his cure and present perfect health solely to the remarkable power .of Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, Rie remedy which I prescribed, and he used.

Since the recovery of the m^n above men­tioned, I hare given considerable thought to the subject of acute nephritis, or kidney diffi­culty, and I find that its manifestations are most remarkable. It often appears without any special symptoms of its own, or possibly as a sequel to some other disease. It may be a sequel to scarlatina, diphtheria, and oth er illnesses, and even arise from The first symptoms frequently s selves In the form of high, fierce and Intense pains in the lumbar region, “ the small of the Dack,” troublesome micturitions and frequent changes In the color of the urine which at times diminishes perceptibly. If the urine is entirely suppressed, the case, probably, will terminate fatally in a very few days. Dropsy is a consequence of the suppression of urine, and the severeness of It is governed by the THX>portlon of retention. The nervous system becomes prostrated with subsequent convul­sions and Irregular circulation of the blo<'d, which, in my estimatibn, eventually might cause a diseased heart to give out. As I have remarked. In many kidney diseases—yes, even In Bright’s disease Itself—there Is no nerceptl- bls pain In the back, and these troubles often assert themselves In various symptoms—for instance, In troublesome diarrlimi, blood poison. Impaired eyesight, nausea, loss of appetite, disordered digestion, loss of con­sciousness, husky voice and many other com­plaints too numerous to mention. Indeed, thousands of people are suffering from the first stages or Bright’s disease to-day, and they do not know it.

in conclusion, 1 would like to state that I have, since my success with the fireman, re­peatedly prescribed Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liver dure, and if my professional brethren conld only be brought ao far as to overcome their prejudice against proprietary medicines they would, undoubtedly, find themselves reo- ompeused for their supposed SHcrlflceof lib­erty, as well as by the great benefits that would aocme to the world. Most sincerely,

O. ANDERSON, 6L O., Superintendent.
