Ethel iived on the seashore that part of the Alabama coast which the Mobiiians call "Over the Bay," and Khe visited Mobile rarely except during Christmas and Erster. She was a busy little girl with lessons and piano practice, and asked so many questions that an old sea-captain who lived near her home gave her the name of Little Conundrum. Some day before Easter she went with her governess into the city, and saw a woman attired In a black gown, a black bonnet and a black veil. Infrlde the bonnet she wore a closely fitting cap. not at all like a widow's cap. "Oh!" exclaimed Ethel, seizing the SUDDENLY ONE NIGHT THE BELL DID RING, arm of her governess. "Who is that. Miss Mary? What makes her dress so? She bas a chain at her side, too!" "That Is a Sister of Mercy," answered Miss Mary. "Whose sister?" asked Ethel. "A Sister of Mercy a sister to all who need her." "A sister to everybody?" echoed Ethel, lookine puzzled. "Yes. 'She spends her life In acts of mercy to thf! poor and the rich, too. If they need her." "Does everybody love her?" asked Ethel, looking after the black gown.

People send for her when they are in distress. A Sister of Mercy nursed your Uncle Fiank when he was ill of yellow fever." "Oh, I wiöh 1 was a Sister of Mercy!" said Ethel, as they left the carriage and entered a shop, "but I wonldn't like to wear that dress." "You need uot wear it to be a good nurse." "Well, but I want to be a sure enough Sister of Mercy. Can't I have a mark so people will know it?" "Oh. yes." eald Miss Mary, laughing, "if you insist iiDon a mark, you can wear a badge on your sleeve. I an easily make one for vou." On Easter morning Ethel put on thr badge which Miss Mary had made for her of beautiful white ribbon. As she returned from church she found a bird with a broken leg. which she bandaged. Then hht put the little invalid in a box. which Tom called the hospital. Faster Monday her first act of mercy wjis to carry a dinner to old Uncle Ebnezer. who was a cripple from rheumatism. He had been her grandfather's slave, and now lived with her father at the old homestead, the Maples. "Iook here. Uncle Ebby," said she. pointing to her shoulder. "You can't guess what that is. ctn you?" "No. honey," answered Uncle Ebby. already beginning to eat. "If rreans I'm Sifr of Mrrcv," replied Ethel. "I bein this Kalter. That is rny Easter resolution." "Dat. indeed!" said Uncle Ebby. absorbed in his dinner. "Is you gwine 'bout nussin fokes?" he added. "No-o." dm wird Ethel. "Mamma won't, let me do that. Maybe I'll do something after a while for that poor woman at the wharf; but I'm going to help everybody here. I'm going to help Aunt Melindy feed the chickens, and now I will help you scrape lint for your lame foot." While Uncle Ebby was eating, Ethel filled a basket with lint and set It on the chimney sfcelf. "Now. Uncle Ebby. listen to me." said Ethel, "when you are sick In bed you mustn't call Jake or 'Tildy or any of your grandchildren. I'm to do the nursing on this plantation, and I want to call Jake and make him tie a string to your bedpost.and the other end to my bedpost, s,o that you can ring a bell right over my head when you are sick. You understand?"

-Jake! Jake!" called Ethel. Jake came when called, and after many trials arranged an unsightly contrivance, so that the pulling o the string did ring a bell just over Ethel's bed. Her brother Tom ridiculed it. but mamma said Sisters of Mercy must be patient under ridicule. Every night Ethel hung her cloak near her bedside, ready to rush out at the sound of the bell. One night Tom played a practical joke by ringing the bell, but papa's sharp reprimand prevented a repetition of his mischief. Suddenly one night the bell did ring long and loud. Ethel jumped out of bed. and in a few minutes stood at Uncle Ebby's bedside. The moonlight fell on the black face and white head. Shaking his arm with all her might. she called out. "Uncle Ebby. wake up!" The old man opened his eyes and sat up in bed. "Didn't you rins the bell? What is the matter?" "Nuthhi 'tall." said Uncle Ebby. at last recognizing the little sister. Suddenly Ethel turned and perceived a curl of smoke in the corner of the cabin. "What's that. Uncle Ebby? Look! Look!" "Sump'u a-fiah. sho'!" And so it was. Uncle Ebby screamed for help. Hlack ami white rushed to the rescue. Jake and the other men led the cattle out of danger, and the mystery of the bell was solved when old Hrindle's horns were seen struggling with the string, which in order to reach up to Ethel's chamber, had been passed through the cow-shed. The smoke had driven her to th open door, and in making her way she had caught her horns in the string. Fortunately nothing was burned except the corner of the shed. Next morning at breakfast Tom. who

I had been very brave in putting out the fire. said. "Well. Ethel, which U the Sister of Mercy, you or old nrindlc?" But papa sab. "If she had not been a Sister of Mercy, there Ls no telling what a fire we might have had, and perhaps poor old Uncle Ebby would have been burned in his bed. Ethel's Easter resolution was a noble one. and I hope it will last until next Easter." Tom looked at bis sister with admiring eyes, and Ethel still wears her badue. Ziiella Cocke, in Youth's Cornpanicn. EASTER IN HUNGARY. Some of the most curious Easter observances pre;iil in Hungary, the home of dance and song. Miss Janka Frankel, a singer who was heard in opera last winter in Philadelphia and other cities, gives an interesting account of the strange customs of her native land. Passion week, as a whole, is generally very quiet, almost no social functions taking place. Its prominent feature is the pilgrimage to one of the sacred shrines. Devout persons in both I town and country join in the pilgrimj age, and every village through which I the procession passes adds its quota to the pilgrim.igo. The journey is taken fasting, as far as possible, only bread and water sufficient to preserve from absolute exhaustion being indulged in. On Good Friday a life-size Image o! the Christ is carried to the principal church by a piocession of priests and there remains until Easter, guarded by soldiers, who stand motionless as statues. On Easter Sunday the worshipers place offerings of money at tha feet of the sacred Image. Easter morning is greeted with tokens of gladness, somewhat similar to our Christmas, all the windows having wreaths of flowers or leaves. One of the prettiest observances ol the day is a procession of young girls in white, carrying brandies of trees, following the clergy in robes and the acolytes with a gilded cross. After the white girls come the villagers. green their huge robed The most interesting custom, however, is that known as "watering." which occurs on Easter Monday and Tuesday. Men go out armed with water in bottles or pitchers and throw it on the young women they meet in the village streets. Sometimes they even call at the houses and greet the girls who come to the door. The odd part of it is that the more thoroughly dremdiej the victims are the better they aro pleased, as it brings them luck. In tha cities the custom has been gradually refined so that gentlemen arm themselves with bottles of cologne. This "watering" rite is said to be known in no other country, and its institution is ascribed to one of the apostles. It is possibly a perversion of the rite of baptism. Young women retaliate on Tuesday, A MOST I N T II It EST I N (J CUSTOM KNOWN AS WAT ER I NO. and the laughing swains often find themselves unexpectedly drenched aa they pass a house or drinking font. Easter Monday is the Hungarians' favorite wedding day. as It Is supposed that it Is especially fortunate for marriages, and the priests are usually kept busy that day. . The rest of the week is filled with social gayetlea. and the quiet of the rigorously observed Lent is fully atoned for. If every person would be half as good as he expects his neighbor to be, what a heaven this world would hat

THE PLACE FOR A POOR MAN.

A Homestead Clear and Money Ahrad In Two Years. Alameda, N. W. T.. Canada. Dec. 22, isy:. Mr. B. Davies. Canadian Government Agent, St. Paul. Minn. Dear Sir: As 1 promised you about two years ago that at some future time I wo:ild let you know what I tho;igiit of western Canada and the chances of a poor man making a start and supporting a family at the same time. o will write a few facts concerning my own exjerience the past twcnt-cne months; and what I have done, any able-boil led man can do. provided he wiil work. I left Traverse country March 2-K lSDü; landed in Alamcdi at noon the j 21st with in mv pocket, a strana- ! r and among strangers, and when my ! family came in October. 1VJS. mv j wife had nearly $10. or barely enotiKh J to pay freight on her stove, sewing- ' machine and clothes and bed. 1 commenced work Maich 2S; also made en- ! tty for homestead same day (the man ' I started work for loaniag me 51Ö to j pay entrance fee), and I have earned or at least received JlTS.lu in wages since then and have been idle at least two months of the twenty-one since 1 came. The homestead I took bad twelve acres broke by a former occupant. I paid $20 to have it replowect in July, ?8, and the seed wheat for it cost me $3.23. I let it to a neighbor for one-half in elevator, clear of all expense except tho seed, and this fall I received 570.10 for my part of the crops off the twelve acres, so my total receipts the past twenty-one months have been $543.10. and my expenses, besides living for sclf and family, hare been as follows: Entrance fee i$5 being paid for cancellation) $ 15. uo Summer fallowing 12 acre 20.00 Seed for same 8.25 Cost of house, besides my ow? labor on same 75 X5 0 acres of breaking and doublediscing same . 60.UO $179.10 . 70.10 My haif of wiieat.

Yours respectfully, V. H. KINKADK. AVhat I a My'tle? What is a mystic? The dictionary gives us an answer, perhaps, but one wants in a thousand cases something more than the dictionary. We like to make definitions ourselves. This is a stronger tendency than we suspect. A mystic is a man who makes his own definitions. I knew a man many years ago, in a country town where I lived, who was a typical nonconformist and an example of self-reliance. He was withal a man of strong character, and did not ask anybody's good opinion. He was a cabinetmaker, and always spelled bureau, "buro." A man to whom he sent a bill said to him, "This is not the way Webster spells bureau." "Well," said he, "this is the way I spell it, and I havs as good a right to my way as Webster has to hir."' He was a mystic in orthography. "Ve must be born again." That was mysticism to Xicodemus. Ills dictionary didn't explain it. Jacob Hehmen called the .same thing "the morning redness." That, too, defies the dictionary. Swedenborg calls love "fire," and beyond all others fn modern times makes defi nitions of his own. All poets are to j some extent mystics, inasmuch as they express themselves in symbols and metaphors. Coming Age. Pushas of the The name pasha or pacha is said to be derived from two Persian wordspa, foot or support, and shah, ruler and signifies "the support of the ruler." In the Ottoman empire it is applied to governors of provinces, or military and naval commanders of high rank. In the early period of that empire the title was limited to princes of the blood, but was subsequently extended. The distinctive badge of a pasha is a horse's tail waving from the end of a staff crowned with a gilt ball. The three grades of pashas are distinguished by the number of the horsetails on their standards; those of the highest rank are pashas of three tails, and include in general the highest functionaries, civil and military. All pashas of this class have the title of Vizier. The pashas of two tails are the governors of provinces, who are generally called by the simple title. Pasha." The lowest rank of pasha is the pasha of one tail; the sanjaks, or lowest class of provincial governors, are of this class. Meant JaU What II Said. Smith "Is your new clerk a good man?"

Why should he. bing a hushand, dictate as to the number c, S"nss in his wife's wardrobe, or th bonnets she has to match thorn? Granting that the man's means are not, unequal to satisfying her reasonable lequesls, why should he inteipose an objection in a domain where he is inexperienced and out of his element? Of course, if a man cannot afford the money to buy new gowns for his wife. she. as a sensible, grown-up person, !

vain, selfish and silly creature, unfit ! for wifely responsibility. The large majority of women, in smaller tiling.;, at least, are rather economical than extravagant and do not intentionally waste the substance of their husbands. To a man's eye women may appear perfectly well dressed, when every woman who looks at her wi'.l inevitably be impressed with the hopelessly dowdy character of her clotlus. I do not know that one likes a man better ' for his accurate acquaintance with millinery or dislikes him for his ignorance of the subject. Hp has his proviiu-e, woman has hers. The fact is, that among the most charming men in tho world arc thos'1 who do not diflerentiate between a Paquin or a Felix gown and toilet mad. by a home seamstress after a model tut from a catalogue. The little woman bewailing her fate, in possessing-quantities of clothes when she was really in the condition of the famous Miss Flora MeFlimsey ; with nothing to wear, stands for a ; large, class of unfortunates. There is j for them a way out of their labyrin- t thine trouble, a straight and clear way. j the way of the regular allowance. Hut j they have not always the tuet nor the ; nerve which enables Ihem to find out ! how to take the fust step toward thei ' deliverance. Driftwood mi the A:hh'ai Cot. There is an extraordinary deposit of driftwood on the coast of Al tska, some 1,200 or 1,500 miles northwest of Seattle. A constant deposit of lojrs and (Iriilvood has been going on for hundreds of years, and it is due to the phenomena of the tides, the Pacific gulf stream, the ocean currents and the peculiar formations of the shorelines at that point. According to the Chicago Times-Herald, logs and tim bers are readily identified there having come from Japan. China, In dia and other localities of Asia, as well as from California, Washington and other parts of the American continent. Thfre are fine logs of camphor-tree, the mahogany, the redwood and the pine. Some of these from the state of Washington bear the names of the men who felled the trees and the sawmills for which they were destined. Some logs eight feet in diameter are often feen there, and some entire trees 150 feet long, evidently uplifted by the roots during some terrible tempest. The newer logs are without bark, and they are as hard as stone, due to their long immersion in salt water. Oar Ntrillri Army. "The proposition to retain a standing army of 100,000 is wholly unnecessary and unjustifiable," in the opinion of the Philadelphia Public ledger. "The country cannot afford such a piece of extravagance. A glance at the German army budget and a comparison with the way we do things here in tbe infancy of the growth of imperialism and militarism seems to show that we spend millions and get ridiculous results. The appropriation for our army department for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1900, is 163.0SS,3r8. and the estimates of the treasury department for the next fiscal year place the war department's expenditure at $100,1 11!,S51. In times of peace, as we are assured repeatedly that the Filipinos are crushed, such is the most of maintaining a force of 100.000 men." Tho ilrl Whä KUIit. A London clergyman tells a moving tale of innocence. A frail little girl came into a public house with a jug to fetch her parents half a pint. When the jus was filled she nervously put down two halfpennies on the counter and made for the door. The barman, though he hardly liked to frighten the poor little thinp, called after her in a gentle voice: "You're a halfpenny &hort." "No, you're a halfpenny short," the answered and disappeared.
