AN Ode to the Tightwad.
The tightwad has a pile of wealth in safety salted down; he’s gathered in the scads by stealth from every end of town. He’s loaded down with bonds and stocks, mortgages and deeds, and when he takes his daily walks, some victim’s bosom bleeds. The man who, gets within bls mesh no mercy need implore; he’ll always have his pound of ’ flesh, then look around for more. To add a dollar to his stock, he’d risk his granite head; he’d turn the widow from her shack, the sick man from his bed. I’d rather knaw at husks and stones and grovel in a den, than have a pile of shining bones that’s wrung from needy men. When you have lost your wad of dough, and all your plans are wrecked; you then may to the poor house 8°» and keep your self respect, but if you torture folks in debt, through all the grinding years, and rake in dollars moist with sweat and blood and woman’s tears, you’ll learn to hate yourself, some day, when death Is drawing nigh; and when they file your bones away, no one will heave a sigh.

The Judge’s Daughter
pmt^cX^d I wj I were was sack a humble little home; onehalf of the house was a log cabin and the other half an unfinished frame structure just Ml father left it when hie (Med, leaving mother with two children. a boy and a airl, myself being but an infant She did sewing for the families near us and I used to envy the girls mother made such dainty dresses for. ; ... * <' When she would be away for a little time to take home some work, I would slip into the unfurnished room where she kept her sewing and don some dainty dress she was making for the judge’s daughter, „ and would prance around in the pretty frock. When I would see another coming I would slip out of the dress, throw It over a chair and run out to play. Mother knew i had had the dress' on, hut she never sal wanything, for I was very careful not to rumple it. ; Judge Garden lived a quarter of a 'mile from our place in a red brick mansion, and his daughter Madge and I had become fast friends. Madge had. a brother, Kent, who was overbearing, aggressive and filled: with self-import-ance, while Madge was a demure little madd as gentle as a kitten and as unlike her brother as black is from white.
I had never been inside of the judge's home, and, although there was scarcely- a day that.M adlge did not come over to my home and bring her dolls, where we would sit under the shade tree by the door and make dolls’ dresses, yet she had never invited me to' her home. ‘Kent sometimes came over to play . with my brother, Tom, and help him make boats which they would sail in the -pond back of the bouse but he never asked Tom over to his house, and, even if he had, mother would have hesitated about giving her consent. She used to say they were too fine for us, but I longed with all my heart to see the inside of the red mansion. - , Then one wonderful day Madge said her mother and father were away and she asked me to come over and take tea with her, as there would be no one there but her brother and the maid. Kent was on the porch as we walked up and grinned at me an ugly grinn, whereupon I promptly forgot my manners mother, had cautioned me about and made a face at him. We went upstairs to Madge's bedroom, which was like a fairy’s room to rhe. A white rug covered .the floor and white ruffled,curtain?, tied back with blue ribbons, drapped the windows. A white iron bed stood cornerwise and a little white dresser and writing desk occupied two corners of the room. I stood looking about in wide-eyed wonder, wheq, Kent came nolsly along the hall ahd'flung the ddof ‘open:“They’ve crime,” he said to his sister, as he looked at me and scowled. Instantly all the pleasure left Madge’s fa;e and she stood there trembling, with a frightened look in her eyes. ..-•••••
“It’s all right, though; you can come down/’ she said to me. Keiit left the room, giving my hair a vicious pull as he passed me. i was’too engrossed noticing Madge’s confusion to pay heed to him, and the next instant a silver bell tinkled below and we went down to lunch. When we entered the dining room the judge and his wife vgefe seated at the table, having returned sooner than they expected. Madge looked at her mother in a frightened way and slid noiselessly into her chair, while I took a seat beside her.
The ’mother had no greeting for the tittle daughter she had been separated from; instead she looked at me coldly for a few minutes, then turned to Madge and said; “The next time I* come home I don't want to see any of your poor trash here.” Madge gave no reply to thia cruel remark. She turned very pale, and Kent looked at me and grinned another of his Ugly grins. The judge and his wife never spoke during the meal, and I thought how different it was from our little home, where teatime was the hour when Tom and I told our troubles and joys to mother and it was an hour in the day we looked forward to. As Madge and I left the dining room Kent was in the hall and scarcely waiting to say goodbye to Madge, I darted through the door onto the porch as Kent called after me: “How’d you likb to come again? Bully, ain’t lt?’» > How fast my feet flew over the ground! They could scarcely bring me fast enough to the home I had so often been ashamed of. As I entered the door mother was sitting by the window sewing A yellow ray of sunlight rested on her hair and as •he beard my hasty step she looked up and smiled, for she expected tq hear a wonderful tale of the glorious time her little daughter had at the judge's grand home; but when I told her about it her face grew sad and abe said. “Poor children." . As I looked about our humbly home, at the bare white floors, the Chairs father made and the old-fash-ioned bureau and mother sitting there with the sunlight on her hair, 1 wondered that they had never looked so dear to me before and I no longer envied Madge her pretty dresses and grand home; and I began to see why Madge came so often to our humble cottage .
Tarnley'S Experience]
I Just after Tarnier had established lon his insntol Ms • sister camo to New York for a brief visit, mainly to see how her freshman brother was . .. „ . a pretty girl! Tarnley a sister exclaimed effervescently as she investigated the photograph. Then •he glanced at the one next to it—and the next—and then another. Rapidly she swept the walls of the room before she flashed an accusing glance at Tarnley. "You’ve eleven pictures of this same girl!” she cried. "You—you must be fond of her, Tommy!” r "Nothing of the sort!” contradicted Tommy, gruffly, meanwhile turning a brick red. "She —she’s In some of the classes. Just happened to pick them up.” - “Uh-hufi,” said Tarnley'a sister. "I’ve observed that one is apt to pickup |2O-a-dosen photographs from the dust of the street!" "Think you’re smart, don’t you?” growled Tarnley with his back to her, trying to recover his equanimity. There was no denying that Tarnley was frightfully smitten. It was so serious an infatuation that it had passed thy power of mere words, so he had ceased to rave about Miss Edmont to the other fellows. Other men might remark fervently that their best, girls were "peaches’* and "out of sight,” but Tarnley only gripped his pipe tighter and gazed at the ceiling while he thought pityingly of the other fellows.
They might fancy they were'in love with the Phelps girl because she had a dimple and lisped, or with Jessamine White, with the big black eyes and not an ounce of brains—they might consider such fluffy, ephemeral creatures admirable, but that was because they had not souls to appreciate Helene Edmont. Tarnley was certain Helen of Troy herself could not have been fairer, while as for sparkle and wit there was no one to beat this girl. ‘Cheer up!” Bobbett said to him rudely one day. Bobbett was a sophomore ants worldly-wise. “You’ll outgrow it and outlive it. The first attack is precisely* the same as being vaccinated—and when you get the real thing it won’t go hard with yqu in consequence.” Tarnley gazed upon Bobbett with scorq and passed on. Let Bobbett talk about the real thing in the fu-ture-little he knew that for Tarnley a great and glowing sun already had arisen Which was to illumine his life for ever and ever! > When the year was ended and Tarnley had to bid her goodby for three months, the occasion was epic. He stood pale and very straight and tall and held her hand. v i.. •‘©very day?” he asked, “you’ll Write every day?” “Oh, yes,” she promised. " li T don’t know how I’m going to endure not seeing you,” Tarnley went on. thrillingly. “It—it seems as if the world had come to -an end, Hel-ene—m-m-my Helene!”. * “Ch, you mustn’t!” murmured Helene. ' ■ ' * e Three months is a long time. Of course, Tarnley went about and. attended picnics nad parties with other girls, but fils heart was still true to Helene. Various things seemed to interrupt Helene’s promised routine ot a letter a day. She was at the seashore and there were trains ' and boats interfering and then, she wrote, she was having such a splendid 'time. ... . -
In the Fall when Tarnley came tearing back he rushed to see Helene the first thing. She was out. When he called again a six-foot junior was blandly occupying the reception room ahead of him. It seemed that the junior, too, had been at the seashore. When the situation became generally known the fellows wondered bow Tarnley would take it. They were prepared to feel very sorry for him, and when some man, who was decidedly new and ignorant of things; mention Helene Bdmont, every one in the room held his breath. Tarnley did did not flicker an eyelash. "Miss Edmont?” he repeated, condescendingly. “Oh, yes—she is a nice little girl; awfully nice! I used to know her well myself. Quite pretty, in fact—but shallow—awfully shallow!” He knocked his pipe against the table. “Gee!" reflected Bobbett. “He isn’t putting it on! He really feeje that way! Say,” he murmured to Tarnley, when he got near enough, “remember what I said to you last year about vaccination? Well, it took, didn’t IL ▼lth you?" 'T don’t know what you mean/’ •aid Tarnley haughtily, after a stare. For Tarnley was no longer a freshman. He was a sophomore.
NAPKIN RINGS.
Napkin rings are not used, as a rule, yet in families where napkina are liable to get mixed and children are not too careful of their own. it in a very good idea to hnvo them. Better still for home use. have the Initial of each person, in white In hla own particular napkin. Young Wife (in a passion)—l’m going home to my mother! Husband (calmly)—Very good; here’s money for your railway faro. Wife (after counting it)—Bat that Isn’t enough for k return ticket—■very Woman'o Maeixioe< -
Canning Hints
I tton of housekeeping, the "getting ready” is the moat important thing and begins far in advance of the actual canning day. Some notes made fast season will give knowledge as to when fruits and vegetables are to be expected, so that time and provision may be made for them. As the various Bns and glasses ha*e been emptied. If they have been washed and covers carefully fitted before putting away, much annoyance and , expense wijl be i pared. If the appetites of the family lave been observed it will hdt be advisable to put up much of the unpopilar varieties. Kettles —which have never been ised for any other purposes than pre-serving-spoons, forks, knives, skimmers, dippers, funnels, jelly bags, fruit prees, strainers, scales, measures and all necessary implements (others will be individually required) and should be in a state of perfect order and cleanliness. Have enough suitable jars, cans, glasses, et cetera, with rubbers, tops, and covers at hand; plenty of paraffin, labels, cloths for wiping and handling utensils, and the labors of the preserving season will not plunge you into nervous prostration. c Procure the best fruits and vegetables, each at the crest of its season. Prices are lowest then and there is less waste. Overripe fruits never make good preserves or jellies. A wise cook never tries a strange recipe if she has one which she has tested and. found satisfactory. Tastes differ and an untried recipe may prove disastrous. Use granulated sugar for all preserves, jellies, and jams; light brown sugar for spiced fruits. Heat the sugar for jellies in the oven before adding to the fruit juice. Do not cover while cooking unless you want trouble. Have receptacles standing in hot water when the hot mixtures are put into them. Seal perfectly. Leave standing where you can observe them for a few days.
LOST THE CASE
A lawyer was defending a case where a fruit broker brought an action for the recovery of one hundred dollars, the price for a consignment of figs Which the plaintiff declared to be unfit for human food. The defense alleged that although moderately discolored hy salt water, as the plaintiff knew when he bought them, the figs were perfectly wholesome. Ti\e figs were in court , ' The plaintiff, who conducted his own case, was skillfully cross-examined. The trial was obviously going against him, and once or twice he retorted so hotly that the Judge threatened to commit him for contpmpt. At length he grew desperate, and turning to the Opposing counsel, hoarse and perspiring, he said; “Look here, you say them figs are good to eat, and I say they ain’t. That’s ail there is between us, ain’t it? Now, if you’ll eat two of them figs and you ain’t ill immediately afterward, I’ll lose my case.” The Judge at once saw the propriety of this suggestion, and asked the lawyer what he proposed to do. “Your honor is trying the case, not 1,” wks the reply. -
Legislatively Expressed.
“No one can go wrong if he follows the Ten Commandments,” said the sincere citizen. “Yes,” replied Senator Sorghum, “the only trouble about the Ten Commandments arises from the ‘amendments people try to tack to them ”
Her Position.
“You know," said Mr. Meekton, “if you secure the franchise you’ll have to go to the polls and vote.’’ • s _ “Humph!” replied bls wife; “I’d like to see anybody make me vote if I didn’t feel like IL" “No, no! The offer is made to you,” said the Judge. A hurried consultation took place. Counsel suggested that it was the lawyer’s duty to submit to the experiment. The lawyer refused. The broker himself was then asked if be would risk it. “What will happen to me if I don’t?" raid he. “You’ll lose the case," replied both his legal advisers. “Then,” said he. hurriedly, "lose the case, lose the cese!” And so he did. y ■■ ■ Mrs. Hornbeak (In the midst cf her reading)—“My goodness!
