removing his pipe aud glancing ily at Hannah. Perceiving his look, the Colonel changed the eonvenation, Hannah contrived once to detain her father aside, saying. feel my old fear of the Iudians: must he i«l«y ail night?" '•To be sure he mut. my child, replied the Colonel. ou have nothing to fear, for he shall sleep in my room. Besides, he know.- that peace is restored, and that it would only be the beginning of wholesale butcheries if he was to harm us. No. no. never fear: Rhoyennah is a high-fouled brave, and would never consent to ?ee us treacherously dealt by, after we have treated him fiO kindly,'T
Hannah was not quite convinced: but Btill »he placed great faith in her father.
Xight coming on rapidly— the fire grew low —and young Hawkins took leave of Hannah, his heart leating at the thought that on to-morrow she should be all hi* own. "ne by one the members of the family retired, taking hospitable leave of Rhoyennah. I he Colonel spread a bed of mats upon the floor, before the hearthstone, and his wife and himself retired in the same apartment.
Rhoyennah threw himself down but hi* keen, dark eye* closed not in sleep. (Mowing like the few ember* still blazing. they turned toward the fire, growing brighter and more fierce as revengeful thoughts lea[ed up in his bo^om.
But for the paleface that sleeps there,

Still, I have eaten with him, I have smoked the pipe with him. and he has treated me like a brave. It would be a coward'* action to strike him now, but I promised. Rhoyennah mu*t keep his promise to his trib**."
Still as the tiny flame upon the hearth dickered and glowed, and he lav
uneasily turning, better emotions from time to time tilled his heart. He beard the heavy breathing of the Colonel, who. having the utmost confidence in the honor of his guest, had not even taken the preemilion to place his gun within reach. They were asleep now, so probably was the whole household entirely at his mercy. He hatked at his tomahawk his gun, and his keen scalping knife, and thought of the traditions of his tribe.
Darker and darker grew the room it* heavy beams overhead were lost in the darkness of the shadows. Deeper and deeper grew the .sleep of the tired family. It npproached midnight, and the house was wrapped in silence. Rhoyonnah lifted himself stealthily, and strove with his keen sight to penetrate the gloom of the apartment. He grasped the terrible tomahawk firmly, and *tood in another moment beside the bed of the Colonel, And there, n* if riveted to the spot, he gazed and thought, his nerving fingers moving over the weapon of destruction,
Is this like a brave?" he murmured ".stealing, skulking, watching a helpless foe! But my promise! They will In ugh und make *port of me if I show mercy und up went the fatal wenpon.
At that moment a flash of light ill lum'umted the whole room- a stick set to dry in the corner had suddenly taken fire, blazed up. ami distinctly revealed the features of the doomed man who, at that moment smiled. The arm of Rhoyennah fell powerle** at his side, a* the fitful flame played from length to length of the great room, and with something like remorse in his heart, he crept back to his bed of mat*, and there began again to recount his wrong* to himself, that he might feed hi* vengeance. Once more the good in his nature was overpowered. Stealthily he moved again toward the unsuspecting sleepers when suddenly door swung noiselessly upon its leather hinges, and a form drapped in long while garments Mood in the opening. The Indian was awed. And again his tomahawk fell nervelessly—he stood undecided, gazing in trembling and awe toward the being who seemed approach ing him. Slowly she came with supplicating gestures, and falling on her knee* at his feet, lifted her arm* Imploringly, then pointed toward the t»ed. So she knelt while he moved farther and farther away, and nt last, with a movement of determination, he placet! hi* weapons at some distance from him. and folding his arm*, sat down upon hi# bed. The figure lifted itself, and gave a mute expression of gratitude jessed him. and vanished: but as she went by he saw that the eye* were tightly closed.

THE FLORAL KINGDOM.
Florist* say nothing is gained by starting gladioluses in the house in advance, of the out-door planting time. j?
It is the nature of the poiusetta to drop its leaves after blooming, when grown in the sitting-room. Is often drops them before, unless a goxl deal of water is u«l on its foliage.
Lady Koi ester of Loildon is a practical philanthropist. Each week he sends to the factory girl- of London upward ot 2,000 bunches of flowers gathered by the servant- on her estates.
Cut flowers can be kept fresh, for quite a length of time by putting a few drops of li piid ammonia in the water in which they are placed. This water should be changed daily, and at each change the 'Stems of the dower* should be cut off an inch or two to present a fresh surface to the water.
As a florist's flower the orchid will hold a far more important place in the near future in this country than in the |ast. and the day is not fardi-tant when prices of the different orchid bloom- will be quoted together with ro-.es and other

*A 1889!—S UEPLEMENT
THE BIRTH OF FLOWERS.
There were no roses till the first child died No violets, no balmy-breathed heartsease. Jfo heliotrope, nor buds so dear to bees. The honey-hearted woodbine, no gold-eyed And white-lashed daisy-flower, nor stretching wide Clover and cowslip-cups, like rival seas. Meeting and parting, as the young spring breeze Running giddy races playing seek aud hide:
For all flowers died when Eve left Paradise, And all the world was flowerless awhile. Until a 11 tile child was laid in earth
Then from its grave grew violets far its eyes, And from its lips rose petals foritssnnle. And so all flowers from that child's dsath took birth.
FEEDING THE ENEMY.
In July. 18ti—, the border counties along the Ohio river north of Kentucky were raided by John Morgan's guerrilla-. who gathered as they went good hordes and mules for army use. Nearly every abled-bodied young man wa« at the front in the Union army consequently those left at home, unused to war or raids, were wildly excited when Morgan's raid was begun.
On a public road very much traveled, in an old weather-beaten house which had since the year 1800 stood the wear of lime, three members of a patriotic family bravely "kept things moving on.'" though the ••mainsUiysv had gone into the Union army at the first call. -'Orandpa" Drummond, though 80 years old. managed the farm and directed the hired men. while Aunt Piety cooked and served to passing travelers such g( od meals that they made it a point to try to reach the Drummond house to spend the night when on their way to or from the city. Rob Drummond. a 10-year-old lad. was hand* and feet for the household.
The horses were Rob's especial pride, and lie had no idea of allowing Dolly Varden. aud Snip, and Scrib. to join the Morgan guerrillas. -Mother, he cried upon the day the guerrillas were expected, "do you think the raiders will want old Dolly and dear, good Snip?" ••Of course they'll take 'em. an' likely leave their worn-out scrubs here/' returned Aunt I'ietv. wishing in her 'heart that Joshua were athome. '•Rob.'" said the help, a bouncing girl, don't you frt:t. Morgan won't want a horse that's on this place." "Why won't he. Orvilly?'' inquired Rob. ••'Cause raiders don't want fat. lazy critters secli as Dolly arden: 1hey need fast ravelin, beasts, replied Orvillv. •Orvilly. you don't know a good hoss when you see one. I'm goin to hide em in the woods, retorted Rob.
Yes. hide 'em then hurry back and help me wait on t.lie homo- guards. They'll be here soon. We must give them the very best dinner wo can get for them." said Aunt Piety.
Ry 10 o'clock a long table was well laden with a bountiful linner. and grandpa stood at the front gate peering up and down the road for the home guards, who were ••after MorS"»n."
Rob had his four horses pretty well on the way to the pasture, win three horsemen in plain clothes rode up behind hitn. asking "if there had been any soldiers about that morning.'" *o. not yet, but they'll be here soon. Our folks are gcttin' dinner for the home guards. They'll settle the guerillas. I'm takin' the bosses to the woods to hide em. I couldn bear to have poor old Dolly arden have a hard l^me. I don't think Dolly would like to be an army horse." said Bob, confidingly. *o. I don't think she would like to join the army. W by do you think Morgan a thief?" inquired one of the men. •Why—he—be—Inst night he burned*a depot an' a railroad bridge. We ,«aw the light from that high hill yonder. I'm not afraid now that you've come. Just go to the house. (»randpa has feed for your horses, an mother's gettin' dinner. She says notiiin' in too nice fyr the home guards," said Hob.
Had he «. en them Rob would not have understood the sly winks or the expressive "(iond enough" tittered by the men. who did ride on to the Drummond house, where silvery-haired old grandpa in his homespun suit of blue jeans stood at the gate with a friendly hand grasp for each man. Soon new comet's dropped iu. and by noon there were fifty men lying upon the green grass, under the big tree, e-ating the pood things so freely served by grandpa Aunt Piety, and Orvilly. Basket* of grape*, plump, and peache* were •handed around," and in the pasture the tired and hungry horse* rested and feasted.
Rob, after his return, was industriously making the acquaintance of the men, tiling them all that he knew of the -mid."
Bub. how do you think Morgan and hi* men will eome? With a brass band and waving banner?" inquired a plain, middle-aged man. .•Ah—men we'd betterbe moving,** *#td another. A shrill whistle sounded, there was a rush for the horses, and without any adieu to Iheir entertainers the --guests" were gaHopping westward. •Why- why!" stammered grandpa.
The guerrilla* are coining an' the home guards have gone. Oh. eome! Set's ran!" ecreaxned 'Bob. ••Run? Kerer! ITl leave that for -those cowardly guard*!*" thundered grandpa, grasping lightly his cane and going to the gate. "We'll not run.
Who'd ha' thought those guard* would hate showed such cowardice!"* Hob hid hi* face in the ample check apron Aunt Piety wore, while (J rand pa Drummond received coldly tb« sup po*ed leader of the guerrilla*. -Look up. Rob!" called Orrfliy:
1
ftiifi^ttli
'caii't. you see that they are the bluecoats?'' •'Blue-coats? Who—who—who were the men we have just fed?" inquired bewildered grandpa, scarcely able tc believe that he had warmly welcomed the guerrillas and feasted them royally. •Wre have no dinner to otfer you, lads, as we've given it all to the raiders. I'm angry with myself for making such a mistake. Like Rob. I expected to see the banners and plumes. Ah, the rogues! They were civil, and no doubt laughed in their sleeves when we tried to make their short stay an agreeable one. Rob, what will our soldier boys think when they learn that we have,feasted the enemy?" said grandpa, sadly••Grandpa." returned Rob, "you read to me from the big Bible that it isn't right to turn hungry away empty. Does war time mean that? wo needn't mind what the Bible says? "Secli a boy to tisk questions. I dun'no as they do, but it's mortal tryin' to know that you've fed raiders the last morsel in the house, while our home guards must give chase, tired an' hungry." said Grandpa Drummond.
A few months after that memorable dinner Rob's father wrote Aunt Piety that he had met in a southern hospital one of Morgan's men, and that they had each laughed heartily as they thought of fat. lazy Dolly Varden tigurhi-r as a guerrilla's mount: and during those tedious convalescence tho.-e two formed for each other a life-long friendship, though one wore a gray coat and the other a blue one. •There! I knew those guerrillas were laughin1 at the tricks they played us: but it's all right, an' it gives Josb.ua something to talk over. 1 don't want them to come raidin' again," said grandpa. ••Nor 1." said Aunt Piety. •An' I'm not anxious for the chance o' cook in' for secli another passel o1 men." added Orvilly, earnestly.
AMERICAN HUMOR.
Kxrtmplos Showing How It Mi»y Consist of Kxa^ifrrutloiift.
The disposition of Americans to exaggerate is especially prominent in what is known as American humor. A story associated with -picket-firing." during the Civil War. brings out this feature of national character.
One day there was a truce between the two hostile picket lines. •Ho. Yank!" called out a lank Mississippian. who had just been posted, ••('an you fellows shoot.?"1 •Wal. Johnny. I guess we can some! Can you?" •Shoot!"' shouted the Confederate. •Why. down in Mississippi we knock a bumblebee olf a thistle-bio*", at three hundred yards!" ~"Oh. that's nothin' to tin way we shoot up in Varniount! I belonged to a company up ther' of a hundred men, and every week we used to go out to practice. The cap'n would draw us up in single file, and set a eider barrel rollin" down hill. Each man took a shot at the bung-hole as it turned up.
The barrel was then examined, and if there was a shot found that didn't go into the bung-hole, the man that fired it was expelled. I belonged to the company ten years, and there aint beeu a man expelled yet."
The exaggeration is often so pronounced as to eclipse the humor. A Cnliforniun. hearing a Brazilian tell of the wonderful fireflies of his country, go large and luminous that ladies wore them on their person enclosed in gauze, replied: ••That's nothin1. Why, in Californy the lire,(lies are so large that they use them to cook by They set the kettles ou their hinder legs, which are bent for the purpose like pot-hooks, and their bodies give out heat enough to boil potatoes."
\nvl»oily or Nobody.
Some people have a very ungracious manner, even when they do mean to be discourteous. They fail to realize that it is a duty to appear kind a* well as to feel kind.
A certain young man whose only fault is a lack of courtesy in little things was greeted one day by a young lady of his acquaintance, as he was walking with a friend.
I have just had a letter from Mias Carrie Dean, and she asked to be remember to both of you.v •Miss Dean is very kind. Thank you for the message,** said the second young man. •I shouldn't remember her. if 1 should see her. but never mind," said the ungracious one. He had lifted his hat when he bowed, and seemed to have no idea that his reply was rude and cutting.
The young lady flushed with wounded feeling, but retorted with quick wit: You wouldn't remember Carrie? Well, she remembers you. She remembers almost anybody.''
