We don t like to Jo it very well, 'specially the big platter. Jule don't like to w ipe that 'n neither de I. We moat always take turns wiping it, 'cept sometimes when we forget whose turn it is. Then Jule wipes one aide of the platter 'n I wipe the other. Jule's my sister. She goes to school 'cause she's ten years old. I'm only eight, 'n I don't go yet. That's why I have to wipe all the -dishes nooui. I mean every noon 'cept Saturday 'n Sunday. Jule don't have niore'n time to come straight home from school 'n eat her dinner 'n go right back, again. So she can't wipe any dishes 'a sometimes there's lots 'n lots of them to do. Well- one day, Miss Crafton that's Jule's teacher told ail the girls that she had some picture cards that she was goine to give to the ones that weren't late to school for a whole month. Jule said Miss Crafton held up some of the cards to show them, 'n they were real pretty. They had flowers on them in colors just like leal nowcrs. 'n Jule said she was going to try ever bo hard to get one. So every morning she'd start at half past eight, so she'd be sure to be early enough, 'n noons she'd run both ways, 'n for three weeks she wasn't late once. Well, one Thursday mamma' d been baking. She always makes ever so many dirty dishes when she cooks, 'n this time the sink was just heaping full. Course I'd had to heip her all the forenoon, 'n my feet were .awful tired doing so many errands, 'n I just hated to think about the dishes. I did wish Jule would stop 'n help me But she ran in just the same she always does 'n sat down 'i ate her dinner, 'n while she was eating I went into the sitting room. Mamrua had most washed tbe dishes, but I didn't feel like washing them just yet. Sometimes I let my dishes get stone cold be lore I wipe them, I hate to do it so. Well. 1 went into our sitting-room 'n there was our old clock. It's a big one that reaches from the floor 'way up high above my head, 'n father 'winds it. But don't you think, he'd forgotten to wind it that morning, 'n there it had stopped just lifteen tainUtea past twelve! And then I don't know what put it in my lead, but I just made up my mind I'd make Jule help ue anyway; 'n I went back 'n I said, "Ji.Ie, it's only fifteen minutes past twelve. You've got lots of time yet. Do help me about the dishes." Well, she didn't want to at first, n she 6aid, "N.o;" but I teased, 'n told her I was so tired. n told her again that it was only fifteen minutes past, 'n so she got a dish towel 'n hurried 'round to help me, 'n I wiped to. Oh my! you don't know how mean I did feel! I kept saying to myself. "Tisn't a truly lie, you know, the clock really did say fifteen minutes past, 'n Jule needn't have believed me 'n never have gone in to see for herself. I guess she won't be late. Anyway, tisn't any worse than an April FooL" v , But all the same I was real glad when Jule ot through 'n picked up her hat 'n started off on a run. She'd stayed until the very last dish was wiped, n I was getting real scared for fear she'd be late. Well, wnen 4 o'clock came I didn't want to see Jule much, 'n I didn't run to meet . her the way i do sometimes. But just the minute she came inside the yard I knew what had happened. I guess she'd cried pretty much all the aftemoon. Jhe looked like It, anyway, 'n she went riut to crying again. "O Lulu," said she, ' what made you tease me to stay this noon? "I was ten minutes late, 'n now I can't have my card?" 'n she cried 60 hard that oh, I'd rather have wiped dishes a hundred years than had her feel so! Well, she cried 'most all the evening 'n didn't want any sapper, 'n all the time she rever even s'pected that I'd told her the tine wrong. And I went 'round feeling just like Judas n '.Nias 'n Sapphira until I couldn't stand it any longer, 'n then I told mamma 'n Jule everything, 'n I cried; 'n Jule wasn't mad at all, 'n we made up, 'n mamma went n told ilia3 Crafton all about it next day, 'n she gave Jule one of the cards, same as the other girls. I s'rect Miss Crafton thinl.s Jule's got an awful wicked Mster 'n I agree with her, for I Jteally believe it was a truly lie after all. Benevolent Itlrds. SC Nicholas. 1 There is one very odd case of benevolence ol one animal toward another which shows that help is often needed where least suspected. Who would suppose that the elephant, witk it3 great size and massive strength, could be in need of such aid as so insignificant a creature as a bird could give if Against such large animals as lions, tigers, and rhinoceroses it can defend itself, but against tiny insects, which it might crush undc its feet by the hundred, it ha no protection except what is given it by a little feathered friend. -With such a thick skin as jt ha?, one might well supiose that that elephant would have no trouble from insects; but, in truth, it is the very thickness of its hide, which makes the. small insect dangerous. Ticks, which are abundant in all forests, work their way into the cracks in the skin of the nuge creature, and as the skin is so thick they are enabled to bury themselves so com. pletely that they can not be scraped off when the smarting animal rubs against rocks or trees. A differently constructed animal could use its teeth or feet to remove the an rtoyance; but for the elephant, there is nothing but suffering and torture, unless some kind friend lends a helping hand or bill. And thia kiai friend is not lacking; for no

sooner are the little pests comfortably ensconced than a pair of small, bright, yellow eyes searches them oat. and tie next mo ment a pretty, oraae -colored beak plucks them forth. The owner of the eyes and beak is a beautiful, snow white heron; small of body, but large of heart; lor it seems, in Northern Africa at least, to have devoted its life to the benevolent work of watching over its monstrous protege. It is a novel and beautiful sight to see the dark skinned giant of the jungle stalking ponderously along, with as many as a score of these beautiful birds perched upon his back and head, busily working to freo him from his little tormentors. And full well the elephant knows what he owes his benefactors Not for anything would he harm them, ugly tempered as he often is. Even when the sharp beak probes deep into the sensitive flesh, the preat creature bears the pain patiently, seeming to know that it is necessary. In South America there is a very beautiful bird called the agami, or the golden-breasted trumpeter. It is about as large in the body as one of our common barn-yard fowl, but as it has longer legs and a longer neck it seems much larger. Its general color is black, but tbe plumage on the breast is beautiful beyond description, being what might be called iridescent, changing, as it continually does. from a steel blue to a red-gold, and glittering with a metalic luster. In its wild state the agami is not peculiar for anything but its beauty, its extraordinary cry. whichhas given it the name of the trumpeter, and for an odd habit of leaping with comical antics into the air, apparently for its own amusement. Vi'Iien tamed, however, and it soon learns to abandon its wild ways. it usually conceives a violent attachment for its master, and.though very jealous of his affection, endeavors to please him by a solicitude for the well-being of all that belongs to him, which may fairly be termed benevoience. It is never shut up at night as the Other fowl are, but, with a well deserved liberty, is permitted to take up its quarters where it please?. In the morninj, it drives the ducks to the water and the chickens to their, feeding ground; and if any should presume to wander, they are quickly brought to a sense of duty by a sharp reminder from the strong beak of the vigilant apjami. At night, the faithful guardian drives its charge heme again. Sometimes it is given the care of a flock of Sheep; and, though it may seem to puny for such a task, it is in fact quite equal to it. The misguided sheep that tries to trifle with agami soon has canse Co repent the experiment: for, with a swiftness unrivalled by any dog, the feathered shepherd darts after

tne runaway, ana with wings and beat drives it back to its place, not forgetting to impress upon the ofiender a sense of its error by pecks with its beak. Should a dog think to take advantage of the seemingly unguarded condition of the sheep and approach them with evil design, the agami makes no hesitation about rushing at him and givi.i 'orubat. And it must be a good dogjtha swill ivercorue the brave bird. Indeed, most dogs are so awed by the fierce onset of the agami, accompanied by its strange cries, that.tbcy incontinently "turn about and run, fortunate if they escape unwounded from the indignant creature. At meal times it walks into the house and takes its position by its master, seeming to ask for his caresses. It will not permit the presence of anv other pet in the room, and even regents t he intrusion of any servants not belonging there, driving out all others before it will be contented. Like a well-bred dog. it does not clamor for food, but waits with;dignity until its wants have been satislied. The Boyhood of Martin Lather. IFIarper s Young peop c.l Martin Luther is one of the few great men of the world with whose boyhood w really feel familiar. Our acquaintance with him, indeed, goes back to his babyhood, when he was christened in St. Peter's Church. Kisleben, and received the name of Martin, because he was born on the day tacred to that saint. All his ancestors were good but poor and uneducated people, lie was the sou of a peasant, he tells us, the grandson of a peasant, and the great grandson of a peasant. His father, who bad been a wood cutter, and afterward became a miner, though untaught himself, had a great idea of education, and resolved that at least one of his children should be a scholar. Accordingly, when the boy was only five years old, the father took him one day to Master Nicolas Emilius's school at Mansfield, where they were then living. Master Emilius had a reputation for being strict and severe, and Mrs. Luther, Martin's mother, dreaded the idea of putting her little boy in his care. "They say that Nicolas Emilius is so harsh," she ventured to remark to her husband when he suggested the plan. Now Mr. Luther, though a good lather, was by no means an indulgent one. He often whipped the little Martin himself, and for fear of him we read that the child would hide away in the great chimney of the cottage; so we are not surprised when we learn that he answered his wife, "The only way to bring up children properly is by fear and chastisement," With the father and the school teacher both holding this opinion, it might be expected that the little boy would nave a pretty hard lime, especially as he proved to be rather a dull scholar. His Latin grammar gave him a great deal of trouble, and when he could not f et the cases and tenses into his head, Master Emilius would giye him a severe llogging. One morning he was whipped as often as fifteen times. Even religion was made stern and forbidding. The master never spoke of the Lord but as an angry Judge, and when the boy heard the name of Jesus Christ he grew pale with dread. It was not strange that by-and-by be grew to bate his school. "The master is a tyrant," he would declare to his mother, with passionate tears in his eyes. Nevertheless, he staid there nine years, and I"have no donbt that it was the severe training of Master Emilius, who later on became his brother-in-law, that disciplined his character for the work lie was afterward to do. When Luther -as fourteen yeare old his father ent him to school at Ma'dgeburg, aad here, since be was very poor, lie had to get his bread and butter by singing with the other school boys in the streets. This was a common custom in Germany, and there was no disgrace in it, but it exposed the young I inger to ill treatment, which hurt his sensitive spirit. Once he was singing before a house, when the owner himself, who was rich, came running out, crying loudly, "Where are you, you knaves?" "Lfl all took to our heels," said Martin, afteTtnrd telling the story, "for we thought that we had angered him by our importunity, and he was going to beat us; but he called us back, and gave 113 two loaves." In his prosperous old age Luther did not forget that he had sung in the streets for food. "Never despise the poor boys, " he urged others, "who sing at the honse doors and ask bread for the love of God. How often have I been one of such a group!" Luther, indeed, had occasion to remember his experience as a singer, since it was in this Way that he met his first good fortune. He had gone from Madgeburg to Eisenachf and was singing there one dav before a certain honse, when the people called him a beggar and a vagabond, and drove him from the door. 'Vhat?" - he exclaimed, "are we to be despised because we sing for bread?. Have not many great doctors and gentlemen begun like us? Must I give up my studies, return to my father's, and work in the mines at Mans'feld?" ' At this crisis Mistress Ursula Cotta, a good woman a burgomaster's daughter, who had heard the boy's j-inging, and remarked the abuse which he bad received, called him to her door. Here she gave him bread, and, what was better still, motherly sympathy. More than that, she invited him to make her house his home. From that time Martin felt a new ambition. He bad been treated with-kindness. almost for the first time in bis life. ' His school became interesting to him, his studies were no longer drudgery aal toil; aalha worked

bard to prepare himself for the University. His master at Eisenach, John Treboniua, must hare been a very great contrast to the severe ;:r.iMius. Treboniua. it is said, would take off his bat to his scholars when entertaining the school-room, and when asked the reason of his politeness would say: "There are great men here among us. Some of these boywill one dav be men of learning, burgomasters, chancellors, and doctors." In his eighteenth year Martin entered the University of Erfurt, where he studied more diligently than ever. Jt was while he was herethat'Le first became acquainted with the Bible. It seems odd that as late as four hundred ytars ago, in so enlightened a country as Germany, any young man could have lived to be twenty years old without knowing something about the Scriptures. But until he became that age 1uther had never even seen a cony. He had never heard the story of little Samuel, upon which his eye fell ai he opened the book, and which be read for the first time with the greatest interest and delight. Not long aiter that he was very much impressed by the sudden death of his dear friend Alexius, who was struck down by ligbtninz at his side. Fearing he Blight be airuck himself, he vowed that if his life were spared he would devote it to God's service. With the rest of Luther's life everybody is familiar. One does not need to tell how he became a famous preacher, whose doctrines stirred up the whole Christian world, how be defended himself before the most powerful and distinguished princes, how his fearless courage made even his enemies admire him, and bow finally he overcame them, and ended his life in honor and in peace. All this lias been told many times, and will be told many times again, especially during" this month, which brings around the; four hundredth anniversary of his birth. On such an occasion it is worth while recalling, a3 we have done, some of the incidents of Luther's bovhood, if we may thereby discover the secret of his success. Has any boy or girl discovered it already? "Was it not due to the hardships which he suffered in early life, and the self-denial which they taught him to exercise? Did not the discipline of Master Emilius, harsh though it was, have something to do with it? We do not believe nowadays in Hogging boys to make them turn out useful men, and very likely Martin Luther would have been a sweeter and tenderer man it he had not been so sternly treated when lie wasaboy; but, on the other hand, lie might have been leSS Strong and hold, and so, for all we know, Luther's education H3 jnst the kind to fit bim for the peculiar part which he was called upon to play in after life. JIM ROBINSON'S BOV STALLS.

The Circus Rider' Unconscious Speculation in Choice Lumber. New York Sun.l "The funniest thing I ever heard of in the way of a wood speculation," said Charley Sto'w, the famous circus agent, "was one that happened once to Jim llobinson and I'm sure I don't know what reminds me of it now, without it is the color of this dark beer that the waiter persists in bringing to me, although I order the light every time Jim, when with a circus down in the West Indies somewhere, reached a little po:t, whence he was to take passage on a vessel for Marseilles. France, lie had four horses with him, valuable trained animals, that he had to take along at his own expense; but the vessel had no stalls aboard and no lumber, and there wasn't a board yard or a carpenter shop, or even a piece of purchasable scantling, so far as he or anybody else could find, in that town When thinirs looked blackest a local merchant, who had taken a liking to Robinson and heard of the trouble he was in, sought him out and said: 'I have a little lumber on hand, and will see to four box stalls being built on board for you at no higher cost than the simple value of the lumber and the work of construction. "When the stalls were built llobinson was much pleased, although he could not see any particular- necessity for making them of such very large and thick timbers and boards. But when he went to pay the bill and heard that the actual cost of the lumber and work amounted to $400, he was astounded. He was too much of a gentleman to kick or complain, and he paid the bill, but went away feeling that an advantage bad been taken of him. Just as the vessel reached Marseilles, her steward approached Robinson and said to him: " 'Sare, 1 vould like to buy of von ze four box stalls zat you have on board.' " 'What will you give for them?1 Robinson asked indifferently, wondering what the deuce anybody wanted to buy second-hand, stalls for in a country where lumber must be plenty. "'fvillgive three thousand francs, said the Frenchman. "Robinson looked at him in amazement, but promptly coming to the conclusion tliat anybody who would offer $000 for four old box stalls must be a lunatic, and that he didn't want to rob a crazy man, replied: 'Weil, I'll think about it and let you know later.' and walked off. He went up town to see about stabling, and when he got back to the vessel was met by a man who said to him: " 'I understand that you have four horse stalls on board there?' " 'Yes.' " 'Bo you want to sell them'. 'No objections.' "I will give you 4,000 francs for them.' "Jim fairly jumped with astonishment, but thinking that he had struck another maniac, went aboard without taking any further notice of the man. The steward tackled him again as soon as he reached the deck with another ofler of S.T.'iO francs, and Jim just had iatience enough to tell him somebody had" already seen that bid and gone better, when the Captain of the vessel stepped up and offered him G.000 f'ancs for his stalls, and tried to clinch the bargain by a threat if Jim attempted to take them "away. Jim flared up and rushed to set his men at work getting his horses and stalls ashore. "Just as they were commencing the wort a new man came on the scene, who said: " 'Are you thj owner of these stalls?' "'Yes, I am, and what have you got to sav about it?' " 'I? Nothing. Only that I would like to buy them from you.' " "So you've escaped from the same asylum, have you?' exclaimed Jim. "I don't know what you mean, but I want the stalls, and will give 8,500 francs for them.' " 'You will! And take 'em as they stand?' 'Certainly. I should prefer to do so, as I can have them taken down with care.' "For a minute, Jim's compassion for the mental wreck who proposed to squander cash on old horse stalls almost got the better of him, but he hardened his heart and responded: They're yours. Cash up.' The purchaser promptly counted out the sum. nearly $1,750, and it was not until hours after, wben he told the story to somebody who had sense about such things, that the idea got into his mind that his kind West Indian friena had built those stalls of mahogany or rosew ood, or some other valuable tropical wood, and that the final buyer of them had no doubt got a bargain." . . The detectives are again telling the story of the revival that occurred in the Jail in Hartford, Conn. The prisoners held their religious meetings in a room given them for that purpose. The zeal ran especially to music, and the songs were of the shouting kind. Great progess was made, and as abundant harvest seemed certain, but it accidentally was discovered that the sick absentees were busily sawing the bars in another cell. - The best India ink has a brownish tint, (is very hard and heavy in the stick, and has a metalic ring when struck.
