WOULD it not be a good plan for Senator Butler to make some arrangements with Stanley to take our negroes over to Africa and colonize them? It seems a pity to send them to take their chances, and Stanley probably knows whether there are any places on the dark continent where more negroes are needed.

Tus Cincinnati Enquirer, while offering a large prize, was unable to lind any quadruplets, although triplets were quite plentiful, averaging three seta to a state. This ought to prove that the fltories about four children at a birth are sheer fabrications. It may have happened in the history of the world, but such cases are not so common as sensational story tellers would have us believe.

ducting the expense of their own keeping, the remainder of their earning# should be given to those who are dependent upon them for support. The laws are entirely too lenient with such scoundrels and there is a pressing: demand for a punishment that sh*U be adequate to the offense.

THE report of the civil service commission puts into cold type a plain statement of certain abuses which, since the passage of tha civil service laws, there has been an attempt to cover up and deny. This report shows conclusively thai under the name of political assessments for campaign purposes a species of blackmail is levied upon government employes. The naval department is exonerated but the collector's and surveyor's offices are severely condemned. The intimidatics practiced is literally coercion. All departments of the government are more or lew guilty of violations of this law. The morning Express makes the point that heads of the departments would not be so arbitrary if they, themselves, came under the requirements of the civil service law. The point is well taken. The evil has been lessened but not eradicated. Because these abuses still exist is not an argument for the repeal of the law but rather in favor of making it more stringent and of a nature to prevent these infractions. if will be suicidal for either party to attempt its repeal. The necessity for it grows more apparent every day and the better class of public sentiment is in favor of it The bosses of the party in power are naturally restive under the restrictions of this law as it deprives them of the immense patronage which in times past has been such a tremendous power for carrying elections, but they are held to the line by the minority. Both parties are pledged to this reform. It was a potent factor in the election of Cleveland and equally so in that of Harrison. For the Republican party to support the Farwell bill or even to. adopt the indirect method of withholding appropriations from the commission would result in a deserved defeat at the next election. This can not be made a matter of partisan politics. It affects the national welfare and all parties are equally interested. Every possible assistance should be extended to the coranxfceion, and they should be held strictly to the letter of the law The scope of the law should be enlarged and the objectionable features modified With these rules carefully observed and with the universal application of the Australian ballot system, we will be able to purify the body politic of the corrupt practices that have fastened upon it and avert the dangers that at times have threatened our republican form of government.

One of the brightest advertising men in Chicago made his rise through the fall of another. It was some years ago when as a mere boy he was tramping the streets of Chicago, broke and in search of anv sort of a job which offered. His last nickel haul gone for food, and one afternoon he was walking through a downtown alley, tired and disputed. Hap-

Ganingtoout

-ning glance upward he saw a boy of a window In a moment the boy lost his balance and fell to the ground with the customary dull, sickening thud. The discouraged man hastened to the boy's side and discovered that death had been instantaneous. Looking up at the open window from which he had fallen the man counted the tttories and then sought the stairway near by. Mounting: the stairs he dashed into the editor's room, for it was the office of the Prairie Farmer, and blurted out: "Do you want a boy?1 Looking up in surprise the editor answered: "No, we have It boy" Then the man said: TU bet you haven't—your boy just fell from the window and death 1 want his place,"—Chicago Herald.

Gen. Butler is growing old, and is attended everywhere by a faithful colored servant named Isaac, who hat been his body servant since the beginning of the war. The other lav Isaac helped the General into the Supreme Court room, where he found his master a chair, and. taking his stovepipe hat away, pulled froufhis pocket a silk skull cap and pulled it over the General's bald head to keep off the neuralgia that is floating around in the atmosphere.

"Please, ma'am, will you give me something to eat? I hain't eat nothing but green apples an' wild onions since day before yesterday, an' oh! ma'am, I'm to hungry.**

The speaker was a ragged, dirty, unkempt lad, of, perhaps, twelve years of age, who stood at the kitchen door of Josiah Green's farm-house one sultry afternoon in July and looked up into Mrs, Green's face with eager, famished eyes. cM 4™ "Where did you come from, and what'a your name?" asked the housewife, viewing him with suspicious, though not unkindly eyes, and "speaking in a motherly voice. •Tin from the city." said the boy. sTve been a bootblack there, and a newsboy, and an errand-boy, and, do my very best, could hardly keep from starving. There's a dozen boys for every Job* and some of 'em are worse off than I am, for they have little brothers and sisters to help, while I am all alone in the world. One day a fine gentleman what was bavin# a shine told me that be used to live on a farm when a boy, and that if I would go into the country, I could get a job at doing chores for my board, and have all the milk I could drink, and go to school in the winter, and perhaps grow up and be President" llie kind-hearted Mrs. Careen laughed as she invited the lad into the house, and that for once, at least, he should have all the milk be could drink. She was better than her word, for she not only brought him mUk. but sweet home»m*d« bread, the like of which he had never tasted' before, and doughnuts, 1 ani, to crojfn all. a mammoth piece of drknl apple pie, and a goodly slice of cheeee.

bumped their heads together. Keither was hurt, and it proved to be the b«it introduction they oouid haw had, for they both laughed verjr heartily, and when two hoys laugh over the same thing it usual ly ends in their becoming friends. Tne two hoys bad just finished picking up the crackers when Farmer Green entered the kitchen. "Hello, motherr he shouted, in his rough hat kindly voice. "Where did you find this *ere youngster?" "O, he happened along," laughed Mrs. Green. "Ho is from the city, and he is looking for a place to do chores for his board, and in the winter go to school." •"O, father, let him live with us. O, do keep him, father I do so want some one to play with." "I don't believe 'twould be a very profitable speculation to hire a hoy just to play. Doing chores ain't play.'* "But are would 'make believe* it was," urged Arthur. "Please, father, let him stay." "Well see about that Come here, youngster," said the farmer to Mark* who during the foregoing short dialogue had remained perfectly silent, hoping against hope that Arthur would prevail upon his father to permit him to stay. Mark at once stepped up to Mr. Green. "You're an honest-looking lad enough, though you are ragged and dirty. And so you want to do chores for your board, eh? What do you know about farmwork "Not any thing," said Mark "I've always lived in the city, but I know 1 oould learn. I will do ujy very best, sir, if yon will take me." "Well, well, we'll see about it in the morning. In the meantime you had better go down to the creek, and take a bath. 1 s'pose we'll have to keep you over night anyway, and them feet and hands of yours ain't just the things to put between clean white sheets. Arthur may go with you and show you the •swimming-hole,' but don't stay in the water long, and be sure and put up the bars so that the cows won't get into the meadow," shouted the farmer after them as they started, with many a whoop and shout, for Oaks creek, a stream flowing through Mr. Green's farm.

As soon as the boys had disappeared the farmer turned to bis wife and said "Well, Polly, what do you think? Had we bettor keep this young tramp or not? I really need a boy to help do the chores Arthur isn't at all strong, as you remind me twenty times a day. If thought the lad would be of any earthly use to me I'd try him for a month." "He seems an honest, bright lad," said Mrs. Green, "and, besides, he's just Arthur's age. Lot's give him a trial."

The fact of his being "just Arthur's age" seemed to be his strongest recommendation in the eyes of the loving mother. Arthur was a sickly though merry lad, and the "chores" that naturally fall to the lot of boys of his age on all farms had, in irreat part, been done by his father thedoinjr which kept the latter from his other duties to such an extent that he was continually behindhand with his work.

In the course of half an hour Arthur and Mark returned from the creek, the latter looking very clean and rosy and the former very blue. "We have concluded, Mark," said the ,'armer, slowly, "to give you a month's trial." "Hurrah! hurrah!" shouted Arthur, throwing his cap in the air. "Ain't thai jolly? Now I shall have some one te play with." "I shall expect you," continued the farmer when Arthur's enthusiasm had somewhat abated, "to help milk, feed the pigs and hens, water the horses, bring in the wood and water, and d« such other light work as I may call upon you to do. If at the end of a month we are mutually satisfied with each other we will make a bargain for a longer period."

That night, for the first time in his life, Mark Bloomer slept on a feather bed between snow-white sheets. The next morning he was up at daybreak and had the fire made and the tea-kettie singing right merrily before Mrs. Green made ber appearance. In a short time the farmer came into the kitchen with two large tin milk-pails, oneof which he -handed to Mark, with the remark: "Now, ray lad. come out to the barn with me and I will give you your first lesson in milking.*V Mark was rather awkward at first, but soon learned to milk as wtsH as the fanner himself. In fact, he did so well and no endeared himself to the whole Green household, especially Arthur, that at the end of the trial month they were not only willing but anxious to have him stay through the fall and winter and do chores for his board and schooling. "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy."* Farmer Green, being a sensible man, recognized the truth of this old saying, and gave Mark one day each week, "all to himself.^ Instead, however, of its being all to himself, it was all for Arthur, for he gave up the entire day to the amusement of the latter, making for him kite#, balls, hows and arrows, traps, etc. In fact he worked harder on his play days than at any other time. Arthur was constantly singing his praises he could "out-run. out-swim, oat-skato any boy round.' At school he fairly astonished the tencfaed by the rapid progress he made. At Farmer Green's every thing about the bam and shed was in order, every tool had a place of its own, and was kept in its place the cows were sleek: the horses shone like glass bottles the wood-shed was {died foil of wood, and the wood-box and wa ber-pails were never empty. I "I don't know what should do without Urn,1* said the well-satisfied farmer, "He's worth his weight in gold."

Things went along thus pleasantly tttil the holiday vacation. The dajr hot iM before Cbrislm** Mr. Green handed sealed envelope to Mark, saying: "I want yon to take this to Mr. Ferry. He Uvea over on the Cherry V%liey toed, foa know. I'd let yoa have one of tbe horses, bet Pre got to go to the village for thai lead of feed.

At five o'clock Mark had not made his appearance, and the farmer went out to milk alone Taint like him to dilly-dally when on an errand," he muttered to himself, as he took down his milking-stooL "I hope he hasn't run away with that money. He's been a good boy since being here, but what do 1 know about his past reoord? I do hope he hasnt run away. Not that I care so much for the money but 1 had learned to like the boy."'

The chores dime, the Green family eat down to sttpper. All were silent until the farmer said: "That boy had twenty dollars in an envelope in his inside pocket, and there can't be any further doubt but that he's run away with it. I'd give another twenty dollars, cheerfully, if I could think otherwise," "Mark is honest, father," said Arthur. "He'll oome back all right, see if he don't. don't know* what, but something has happened to him. I know it fie'H return some day, if not to-night, and clear up the mystery." "I think so, too," said Mrs. Green. "Perhaps he has met with an accident Hadn't you better drive to Mr. Perry's in the morning and see?" "Yes. I'd go to-night if it wasnt so stormy." replied the farmer.

But when in the morning he drove up to Mr. Perry's door he found the house locked up. The whole family bad gone to Ohio. He inquired at the few houses on the road between Mr. Perry's and his own home, but could hear nothing of the missing boy. Sadly he unhitched bis horse, firmly convinced he had seen the last of Mark and his twenty. dollars.

One day abosst the middle "of January, just as the Greens bad sat down to dinner, the kitchen door slowly opened and Mark Bloomer stepped in. He was "poor as a crow," as Arthur expressed it his eyes and checks were hollow and he was so weak he could hardly walk! At this unexpected apparition Mrs. Green arose from her chair so suddenly as to nearly overturn the table. Arthur uttered a loud "Hurrah! I told you so!" while Mr. Green could only sit and stare in open-eyed wonder. "Why, where have you been, and what makes you so thin and pale?" asked the good housewife as she placed a plate and cup and saucer for Mark. "I've been in the pest-house and Pve had the small-pox," said the boy. "When Pve had something to eat I'll tell you all about it. I'm awful hungry-"

After din her Mark told his story as follows: "Although I didn't say any thing about it, I hadn't been feeling well for some time before I went away. thought it wasn't nothing more than a cold until that day I went to Mr. Perry's. I felt sick enough to die before I got half way there. My head and back burned and ached, and the trees and houses and things looked as though they were just spinnin' round. I couldn't think what was the matter with me at first, but soon made up my mind I was coming down with the small-pox. The day before I went to Mr. Perry's Ike Pier told me that Sam Smith was 'down with the small-pox and in the pesthouse.' About a fortnight before, you remember, Sam and I had worked together in the woods. When that came into my mind 1 knew what was the matter of me, and 1 says to myself it won't never do for me to go back home and give Arthur the small-pox. Weak and sickly as he is, he would die sure. Ill just go to the pest-house and bear Sam Smith company, I managed, somehow, to get to Mr. Perry's and give him the envelope. 1 told him all about it, and where 1 was going, and made him promise to tell you but he was so frightened and in such a big hurry to get rid of me that I don't believe he realised what he said." "He went West that very day," broke in the farmer, (and I got a letter from him yesterday, in which ho says he got the money ail right, a&d told me all about your—your—" "Heroic behavior," said Mrs. Green, who used to be a "schoolma'am," and prided herself on having abetter education than her husband. "Well," continued Mark, "I got to the pest-house somehow—I can't remember how myself—and the doctor* said it was a 'fine case though what there was 'fine' about it is more than I, for one, can tell, fori was sick

They pulled me through all right, however. and here I am, and that's all there is about It"

Well, Mark," said Mr. Green, "1 will say this much: your home is here just as long as you care to stay. When yon get strong enough yon can go to work, and 111 pay you ton dollars a month the first year, and more the next, and you can go to school winters. I fee! that your presence of mind saved my son's life, for he never could have lived through what you ve endured. God bless you*" and to hide his emotion the farmer abruptly left the room.
