OLD DAN.

Farmer Henderson came in from tbe barn one morning with his hands and clothes wet and covered with mud, his face red and his eyes flashing. "Ned!" .he shouted, as he entered the kitchen. "Where'sNed?" "Here I am!" came a cheery voice in reply and an instant after a bright, strong boy of some sixteen years entered the old-fashioned, country kitchen from the adjoining wood-shed, where he had been cutting potatoes for the day's planting. "Do you want anything?"

F'I

want to tell you this?' said Mr. Henderson, as he washed himself at the sink and rubbed his weather beaten face with the coarse towel until it was even more red than before. "Old Dan must be killed! Just see the state I am in,

and

all from that worthless old rascal! I won't have him about the^ house another day. He's good for nothing but to make trouble, and he must be before night!" added the farmer Wrath-

Ned was about to plead for his pet when his little sister came into the room. "Why, papa, what is the matter?" she cried, running to him in amazement. "Did you fall into the creek?" "I might as well," he replied, half toughing. "Old Dan butted me into the watering trough!"

There was a shout of laughter from both children, in which their mother

J°"VVeil,

Jedeiah," said Mrs. Hender

son, coming into the kitchen, and still shaking with mirth, "what could you have been thinking about to let an old ram, 'most twenty years old, knock you into the watering place?" "But," exclaimed her husband, he took me unawares. 1 had just filled one pail to carry to the barn, and was stooping to dip the other, when the old rascal came to me like the wind, and knocked me completely .into the water! He scampered, I tell you, before I cp^'d get out. He knew he had done mischief. Anyhow, he's got to be killed to-day, Bure. He-s only a nuisance, and 111 eboot )iim to-night, when we come back from town, if lie's on the f«njgd"

Two hours later »Ir, and M$. Henderson drove away home until uigkfc. Ab t\M riittled out of the yard, Ol^d Dtti\ W$a«nly' ap{ea*ed close to the gate, audj wagg|iig his tail as if in denqion, gave uttehince to a hoarse "Ba-a-il"

*Ione,

after

white,, whether

there was any way of ayertiii| |fld Dan's sad fate, Ned shouldered lus hoo and marched off to his work, planting potatoes with Bronson, the hired man in the "back lot."

But the Utile girl of thirteen had no thought of lieiitg afraid. She had Uie breaklast dishes to wash, some sweeping to do, and the dinner to get, all before twelve o'clock.

Time fled. The dishes stood in 8hin» ning rows upon the pantry shelves, the broom had performed its work, and Carrie was preparing the vegetables to be boiled, when there came a faint knock at the door. Supposing it to be one of the neighbors, the little girl did not rise, but called: "Come in t"

The door slowly opened and a man stepped within. He wore along black coat,buttoned to his chin, and verv threadbare. His trousers, too, were black and shiny, and much too short for him. One foot was a boot, while the other tffes graced by a ragged shoe. He carried a battered stlk hat in' his hand. His &ce wns long and solemn, but quite red, his eyes bleared, his hands very dirty, and altogether W mis a queer looking visitor. "Is vonr ma at home, miss?" said

a Half whine, as he glanced sharply about the room. "No, sir," replied Carrie, wonderinf why he asked "she has erone to Under hill. Did YOU wish to sw her f* "Oh. no,N' replied

stay to dinner, miss. However, nnder the circuinstanees. perhaps you'd better give me alight lunch before I go a piece of pie, ana a cap oft ?*, and a little coki meat, or something of that sort." "Oh, certei^ly only I can't give you the meat, for we haven't it in the house," said Carrie, rising "botl will findflomething." And she took from tbe pantry a whole apple-pie, which she placed before him, with a knife and fork. "If yon will help yourself Fll have the tea ready in three minutes." "All right, my dear," said the man, seizing the Itnife and drawing the pis toward him. "I will act upon yonr advice. The last time I took dinner with General Grant," he continued, as he cut a great piece and be^an to eat, "he said to me, 'Governor, governor,^ said he. •never disregard a lady's adviceand I have always remembered what he said," and he chuckled merrily, and nodded his head at the delicious-looking pastry before him.

Carrie wondered a little at the tablemanners of the man who had dined with Grant, but she steeped his tea, flavored it with rich cream and sugar, and passed it to hitn. "I am not much of a hand for tea," said the man, as he drained tliecup, "but doctors say that I must drink it for my digeston. Rained my digestion while in the army, vou seeand he winked solemnly. "By the way," he continued, picking np the silver teaspoon from his saucer, "have you any more of these? They are as neat a pattern as I ever saw, and odd, too. I should like to see the rest of the dozen, if yon have them."

Mother has oulv eleven^' said Carrie in her innocence, "and she is very proud of them, but I will show them to you."

Then she brought the little box with the precious table-silver—eleven teaspoons, four tablespoons and an ancient cream jug all pure silver, aud shining brightly—and placed them before her inquisitive visitor to admire. He had hnished his light lunch. That is, the pie was demolished and the teapot was empty. As the little girl handed him the treasures he arose, took the box to the window, examined its contents with a critical eye for a moment, and then, as if in joyful surprise, cried: "I am right! They are the very spoons I The very

Barne

identical spoons that my

friend lost when he was a boy I How lucky it is that I have found them at last!'

With these words, and a very low bow, the rascal opened^he door and slipped away with the spoons and a silver cream pitcher down the path towards the gate.

For an instant Carrie Stood motionless, then rushing after him she shrieked: "Give me those spoons 1 They are my mother's spoons, and you are trying steal them! You are a thief, a tliiei. Bring them back 1 bring them back 1"

The man, however, paid no attention to the child's cries, but ran rapidly down the path, carrying the box in his armsand the spoons and pitcher would have been lost forever if anew party had not appeared 011 the scene.

Old Dan was quietly nibbling tie grass near the gateway. Hearing his kttle mistress' voice he looked up at the very instant that the tramp passed. What he saw about the man that disturbed him I don't know but erecting his head with a hoarse "Ba-a-a!" he shot after him like a cannon ball.

The man turned to receive him' and defend himself, but the ram struck him fairly in the front and knocked him half Benseless, flat on his back, scattering the silver in all directions.

For an instant the fellow remained sprawling in the dust, then he slowly arose, limping and groaning, and without a giance at his enemy began to gather up his stolen spoils.

He had partly completed his task when Old Dan, who nil this time had been waMiing the proceedings from beneath his shaggy eyebrows shook his loug beard, and with another tremendous Ba-a! dashed atliiinagain,and over he^ went a second time, lus treasures flying from his hand. ay) ,j

Aaa now began a strange battle. »V lth cries of rage and pain, the man re* covered his feet and turned upon the ram, kicking and /striking at him furiously, while Dan^ accustomed to such warfure from years of experience with the |xys of the country side, .easily eluded hipi, and in return butted him to the earth again and again. The spoons and the cream pitcher were knocked hi&er and thither, as the combatants stru?«iled, the road was trampled into something like a race course, t,h« air was filled with very bad language. very angry "baas" and a great cloud

Of Interest to Ex-Soldiers. The Indianapolis Journal has compiled the following points of interest to exsoldiers relating to the bounty laws. Thoee who are interested would do well to cut out and preserve it: "No bounty paid to volunteers for enlistments before the commencement of the rebellion, April 12, 1861 nor after April 30, I860, in any case—nor for 100 days, or three, six and nine months men. "1. Decision of supreme court, March 14,1870. and act April 22,1872. This applies onlv to enlistments for three years, prior to July 22,1861, and since the commencement of the rebellion. All volunteers who enlisted for three years prior to July 22,1861, and who were mustered into the service for three years before August 6,1861, are entitled to $100 bounty, if they have been honorably discharged and have not received the same for such servece. Those discharged for promotion by way of favoivare not entitled to this bounty. "2. Act of July 22, 1861, gives $100 bounty for two and three years volunteers, from April 12, 1861, to December 24,1863 {except veteran volunteers and recruits for old organisations), and also from April 1, 1864, to July 18,1864, if they served 2 years or more as enlisted men, or were honorably discharged as such on account of wounds received in line of duty before two years' service. "Also additional bounty, act July 28, from April 19. pril "itled

1866, $100 to 3 years' men 1861, and $50 to 2 years' men 14,1861, for same enlistments an tions as stated in 'No. 2 if not en to receive a greater bountv than 0 under previous laws for all oth enlistments except those discharged for promotion or by way of favor, and drafted men and substitutes. "3. Act March 3,1863,gives$100bounty only to drafted men and their substitutes enrolled for 3 years, from March 3, 1863, to September 5,1864, if they servea 2 years or more, or were discharged on account of wounds received in line of duty before 2 years' service. "4. A bounty of $300 to volunteer recruits to 'old' organizations (that is, those that had been completed and had left the state to which they belonged), for 3 years' enlistments, from October 24, 1863, to April 1,1864, paid in instalments ns follows: $60 in advance, and$40after 2, 6,12,18, 24 and 36 months, respectively. Also to new organizations, from December 24,1863^ to April 1,1864, $300 to volnnteer recruits, same as in 'No. 4.' "6. Four hundred dollars to veteran volunteers (that is, those enlisted for 3 years, and who had previously served 9 consecutive months in the army), from January 1,1863, to April 1,18»4, payable ns follows: Advance, $25 (or $60 after September 28,1863), and $50 after each 2,6,12,18,24,30 months, and the balance at expiration of service. Soldiers who had rendered 9 mouths' consecutive service in the army were permitted to reenlist in another organization after January 1, 1864, and prior to April 1, 1864, and become veterans. If they re-enlist-ed in the

regiment, they must have

previously served 2 years or have been discharged by reason of wounds received in line of duty in order to become veterans, and these were probably paid all bounty due for fist service. "6 Act Julv 4, 18(54. Volunteers enlisted for 1, 2"and 3 years, from July 18, 1864, to April 30, 1865, were paid $100 for. 1 year) $200 for 2 years and $300 for 3 years, in equ 1 enlistments onethird on muster in, one-third at expiration of one-half the term and the balance at the expiration of the full term of service. And the first corps United Suites veteran volunteers (Hancock's corps), $300 in advance in addition to that stated in No. 6. "7. Colored troops, act July 15, 1864, and March 3,1865. Colored men, enlisting as volunteers from April 12, 1861, to July 18, 1864 are entitled to the same bounty as white volunteers for the same period. "Also, colored recuits from October 17, 1863, to June 16,1864, to the same bounty as white volunteer recruits, if enrolled and subject to dra at the time of enlistment. "8. Act March 3,1865, and join resolution April 12, 1866. All soldiers discharged because of wounds received in battle or in line of duty are entitled to receive the same bounty they would have received if they had served their full terxu of enlistment.

Housekeepers will find that sines may be scoured with great economy of time and strength by using either glycerine or creaote mixed with a little diluted sulphuric acid."

To Prevent Moth*.—You will not be troubled with carpet moths, if you scrub

Slecarpet

our floors with hot brine before tacking down, and once a week scrub your carpets witli coarse salt.

To FFojfc Velveteen.—Wash In cold water and do not wring but shake thoroughly, spread on the line as much as possible when partially dry take down and shake again.

JFai/i for the JHbtr.—In a pint bottle put a spoonful of olive oil and add two ounoes of best spirits of ammonia or hartshorn shake then mix with three ounces of alcohol, and when thoroughly mixed fill the bottle with soft water. Remember to put in the order named or you will have "stuff," and no chemical union at all. To apply, take a spoonful or two of this, with a little wann water, dip a sponge or rag in and wet the scalp thoroughly now rinse off in plenty or warm water, and you will ne surprised at the amount of dirt, though vou may have thought y^ur head perfectly clean. For the heads of young infanta it is just tho thing, as it instantly removes the dirty scurf without pain or trouble. It should be rather weaker for a babe than for an adult.
