H"aronymu grunted gloomily, lie thought it a burning shame that ho fcliouhl not go to tho hanging; but never hud hw mother been willing that ho should have tho least pleasure in life. It was either to tend the baby, or mix the cow's food, or to card wool, or cut wood, or to pick a eliicktui, or wash up the floor, or to draw water, or to sprinkle down tho clothos-always something. When everything else failedj.she had a way. that seemed to her sou simply demoniac, of setting him at the alphabet. To be sure, sho did not know thn letters herself, but
her teaching was none the less vigoroils'. 44 AVhat's dat, 'Onymus?" .she would say, pointing at random with her snufl brush to a letter. ("- with a sniff. 44 Is you .sAo'"--in a hollow voice. Woe be unto young Pop if ho faltered, and said it miyht be a Z. Mother Pop kept a rod ready, and used it as if she was born for nothing else. Naturally he soon learned to stick brazenly to his first guess. Put unfortunately he could not remember from one day to another what ho had said; and his mother learned, after a time, to distinguish the forms of tho letters, and to know that a curly letter called Son Tuesday could not possibly be a squaroshaped'K on Thursday. Her faith once shattered, 'Onymus had to suffer in the usual way. Tho lail had been taught at spasmodic intervals by his sister Savannah commonly called Sissy who wont to school, pat on airs, and was always clean. Therefore Hicronymus hated her. Mother Pop herself was a little in awe of her neeomnlishod daughter, and
would ask her no questions, even when most in doubt as to which was which of

larks, to gee n man hanged. It was a hot afternoon, and tho unwilling mirso sttilered. Tho baby wouldn't go to deep. Ho put it on tho bed a feiithor-bod and why it didn't drop off to sleep, as a proper baby should, was more than the tired soul of Hieronymus could toll. Ho did cvorylliing to sootho Tiddlekins.

Warmed up with his exertions, content in this good riddance of such bad rubbish as Tiddlekins, Hieronymus reposed himself on tho feather bed, and, dropped oft intoa sweut slumber.
