which was soon abbreviated to Gyp.

No motherly love did Gyp receive,

but as soon as her childish hands had

strength, labor was required, and from the farmer's wife came a never-ceasing

refrain of the child's n worthiness.

Bounding up a path which ran from

the rear of the house to the ridge of wide-aiM-eadinr oaks that rave the

with dishevelled hair and torn dress,

with shoeless feet. who. despite her

sunbrowned limbs and untidy appear-

would have turned instinctively for a

the woman came down in rapid Mows,

not the first the poor girl had received

in her 3'oung life. Are you shocked,

kind reader? Gyn is a oharacterdrawn

from life, and we, knowing the hard

ness and bitterness of her earlier years,

rejoice at the sunshine that came later.

But, contrary to all prior experience el Mrs. Blvm. the vounr ifirl, who

heretofore reoeived the unjust punish

improvement on Nature' colors had not been attempted. The appearance of the men was infinitely repulsire. Coarse and heavy faces they had, for the most part with stupid, animal expression. I had almost written, brutish faces. Hard faces, too, without mobility or kindliness. They wear the beard full, with upper lip shaven. If the mouth is the tell-tale feature of the face, as is often said, it is as well, possibly, that the majority of mankind wear it covered, for the tale these Mormon

Now this is a very pretty story a it tttd, but it lacks plausibility. In the first place, we do not believe that Mr. Blaine has any hope of ever being able to heat Mr. Cleveland. If the Presi
