There was onco a little black and tan dog, whoso name was Plppo; lils mother's nam was Nola. and ill father's name was Cricket; Cricket had little sharp ears that stuck atnalght up la the air, and Nola had long ear that hung down, and I'Ippo admired both his pareuta Tery much. When b looked at his father h would say to himself: "How brave and handsome Papa Cricket looks, with hi ears standing up so straight." then be would try to hold his ears up in the same way; when he looked at his mother ho thought: "How pretty and graceful Mamma Kola la, hex ears Sop so beautifully whan she runs,' then he would try to hold his down, so they would Cop too. Now I do not know whether one of Flppo's ears was atiffer than the oth er or not but I do know that aftt-r awhile his right ear stood up all the time, while his left one always huug down, which gave him a Tery fuuuj ne-slded appearance. Plppo lived on a farm where there was a big barnyard, he, bis papa and mamma had a big kennel lu this barnyard, and three times a day a good woman who was the farmer's wife, would come out and brim; a plats of nice Juicy Itones, and mi me. times a pan of milk for tho dog fam ily, then they would nil tlitv stand around the dish ami eat until every bit was gone, and each of them hail bad Just enough. Plppo was Tery fond of the farmer's wife, and always wished he could do something to help her; be was a grate ful little dog, and was always wUhlng So help someone. Right next to the barnyard where Plppo lived there was a big hen kouse, Inside this hen-house, all along each aide, was a row of square oixni tngs like little doorways, that led Into a long box thnt was fastened to the side of the ben-liouse, and all partitioned off Into little rooms, enrh room having ono of those doorway into the hen-house, and nice clean straw all over the floor. Plppo did not know all about that, bat he bad often seen the hens en Into the. ben-house, and after awhile come out and go about cackling ns If key had done something very smart, then the farmer's wife would come at and go up to that long box, mine a little hinged cover, and take out something white and oblong In shape; swmetlmea she opened all the covers, (for there was one above each little tsom), then her whole apron would be full of egg. Now Plppo thought the hens must tare something to do with thoite pret ty white things; ho did not know they were eggs, but he knew the farmer's wife liked to have all she could find, and one day be heard her say: "I haven't seen anything of old grey hen tor some time." Then the farmer said: "I heard her cluck In' around here a good while, shouldn't wonder If she'd stole a nest somewhere and was goln' to et" Plppo bad no idea what all that meant but the next day be saw the old grey hen, and made up his mind to follow her and see If be could And come eggs for the farmer's wife. 8be bad Just come out of the stable, and had her feathers ruffled up so she looked a little cross; Plppo thought It might be better to go In the stable and look around while she was gone, so be. slipped In quietly and looked through the empty stalls, and by and by he came to the one where Doll, the grey horse was; he kept out of the way of Dell's feet and the good eld horse put down his nose and nlffed at him, but he and Plppo were good friends, and Dell would not hurt the little dog for the world. Dell was eating hay, and some of It had fallen through the cracks In the manger, and what do you think? the eld grey hen bad round It ami scratched it around Into a nest, and right there .under ,the manger Iny twelve beautiful white eggs; so far onder that the farmer bad never seen them at all. Plppo was so happy he barked with joy, then be picked up one of the eggs In his mouth, and It was so large his little Jaws could Just hold It; he held bis head up high, and started toward the house very slowly for fear he would drop It. He carried It to the back door and found that shut, so he went around to the front of the house, and climbed tip the steps, which were very high, so high he could hardly climb up with the egg In bis mouth; then when he got upon the porch he found that door shut too; ho aid not know lust what to do, but he thought If he put the egg rignt by the door the farmer a wife could not fall to And It, so he put It down, and waited for Just a minute, and while he was waiting something happened that surprised him very much; the porch was marie to slant down a little, so the water would run off when It rained, and when Plppo put the egg down it be gan to roll toward the edge of the porch, and. before he could catch It It fell over on the first slop and went spat spat down the whole flight, and the outside of It canio right In two, and a funny yellow kind of stuff ran out In a little stream all down the nice clean steps. Plppo had not had any Idea such a thing as this was going to happen, and he hurried down the steps to run and hide, but Just at the foot he met his mother, who asked him In dog language what he had been doing; and ho told her he had bon trying to help the farmer's wife, and she saw the broken egg and asked him If ho Aid tit; to ko told h,ar all about It, for be had frund It waa totter to toll his mother everything,. She told him to come borne with H.u ami whxn lh mt la the) kimtltd. sh talked to him a long time, all In dog language; it sounded lik tin: How wow. wow, r, r, r, rf, rf. rf, yap. yap, yap," but when mnsluUHl It mant: "You ar a kind little dog to want to belp th farmer's wife, but you ee you are not old enough yet to understand about everythlug. ami It would b bettor to atk your rather or im befor you do auuidng like that beside, you hav nj right to take the old grey ben's sggs while she Is gone: do not tak any mor. hut wait awhllo, and so what will happen." Just then tho farmer wife opened the door and saw the spllll "My goodness!" said she, "what a nasty mess ou th frout stps, I won der how It came her," Sh gt a broom and so mo water and sonildwl It alt off, and never found out how It came ther, for Plppo could not toll her. And Plppo waited, a bis mother had told him to, to see what would happen, aud did not disturb tho old grey hen. and Dell never told what waa going on under his manger, aud one day while Plppo sat lu front of tho keunel In the sunshln. right out of the stable door stalked the eld grey hen. cluckln loudly, Just Ilk the fuy old thing sh waa. and all .miihiI hnr hitdn at th ton of 1.1 .'..... ., . , " , m their Toloes. were eleven little yellow chicks, and th old nen coma no count so she never knew that there ught to have been twelTO IN BROADCLOTH GARB.

TAXATION OP CHURCH PROP. ERTY. We bellev that all church pnt"Tty to exoeed the value of $1,1U) ahould bt taxed JuiK a othtT property. Almt every community Is now unduly tav1 by the too num.Tous church buildings. If taxing church proprty away with some of the churoh buildings In aat'h community, thre will b oevel oped a mftre flerant snd religious nplrit for men and wumen with but sn iilmoet impepptlble Hhade of diver ence in religious belief will be drawn closer toK"thor and wornhlp God In true hoUneiis, and much of the petty Jealousy and enmity now exlKtlng will be done away. I Aft us build honpltala whore they are s badly needed and do away with superfluous churches. Real religion Is practical, and prnctical out side of church buildings In deeds of love. While we maintain thut all men should bo allowed to worship Ood ac cording to the dlotaic of conscience so long as suoh "dlctaites" Interferes not with the businns or U berth of others, we do advocate the taxation of valuable church property, and would call tho attention of tllO present legln lature to this matter. We do most heartily endorse this part ot Gov. Lord's mesMage. "Where one clans of property is taxed and another to any large extant allowed to escape, the bur dens of governmunt are not equally shared." It may be said of Japan that she thoroughly understands her own affairs, and resjnt Interference. She has shown tutrnelf capable of chastls Ing and dictating term of peace to a mighty empire. Why then should she ask help from a nation which like America, has Hhown herself Incapable of harmonizing hear own discordant elements, chief of which Is the claah between labor and capital? When America has swept her own dooratep thon will it seem more conalbUHit for her statesmen to offer to erUtrate and legislate for other nations. I'ei-haps Japan has not forgotten the strained relation that once exibied butwew, tier self and America, when the latter gob' bled up Japanese shekels without value given. TUB GRAIN MARKETS.

When th summit was reathed and th tired horse twwd f.jr a short ret, whil with widely dis tended n mi rlla they drew In th frwrfi air of the mountain top, th entlr party turned Its eye backward to gather in th beautlc of Ruu river valley, that Iny spread out Uk a gnrgwais pan tram at Us feet.

Surely no fairer picture atui t ever ,t ran f erred from u miner landscape to th Imperishable wall cf momory than swung out that day from & cloudle ky In th valley of Ugu rivr, Again th ml.tt ; down th tn hltlsid, pver niountaln rrgiM. and ai-rosa h llmisd sthwni, ttut party wended Its way, bvklng In th gratiiful tvt'lo of th foitst, And drinking lha Trlat.l beauty and bl.Mjin that pld th air with d-Udou fragraiw.

Ah her bad com to the horn a diviner revel;;i, a fair and delliate flower wua fiutt imMdliiy Its tiny petal In the sunnhliu of love and affection; a Smih.-ni Uivgon sun liium was giving an added eftugvnc to th horn life, and shedding a ray srn upon th mining camp. Whence the grai and ouorteay sill) alihh the miner snd his wife r rival Ihelr guents? IUd nature In its tlsest har mony, lniiarted to them a benlaon that radliUed In their ourdlai welcome? ICsgerly the party llatwiwl w th story of tho mlrnVs exiHrien, snd with that strsnge fa 4 nation that the sight of gold begot, they admired the ape imens and nuggwts, that were brought out from nook and ouror for 'heir In pctlos. Ktlll In the gold pan on the top of the bookca wer several hun drvd dollars taken from the sluice boxes the day before. Little Kadi carried about ft siwlmeria and Uiwtod tlie golden dual in the blower and Uilamed the lurgr pltuM n th gold scale with th childlah uniim orn that Indlcatihi that h had never nmllzed the value of gold; to her it was stmiily a part of the great st roll of nature from which she had learned, untouched by the greed snd svarlc that latur on darkens th pathway f huimtn life. When th father spoke of the happy, cart-free life of the child, and that she must soon go away with her mother to school, th little one caught th gentler cadenc of hi vulce, ami Into the startled blue eyex at once came the full meaning of the Coming m-paratton. She slipped around lo her father's sld and climbed deftly to his knee, and stroked the grlssled beard with her tiny hand; the father turned upon the child a lev liitf look of affection that lndtcaud taa he waa the d -ret of sll his earthly pial'iui. Not lifts loyally did the child give to the mother a lingering fond embrace, and sgwln she was caroling with the wild birds, with no thought of the clouds of tomorrow. Over tho rushing tide ut water that poured through the dllch down to the mine, th party wended its way, led by the child. A full force of men were cleaning the bedrock with atet-l pleks and little willow broom. In great Shallows, upon the cJeend bed rock, Clw.r pool of water were stand ing, left by a mcunlaln storm that had swept the mine th day before, in these the child splashed and dab bled, now here, now there, with a kind ly word from the miners who paused to greet hor as she paatd. On the uncleaned bedrock, where the gold glistened among the sand anl oouldiirs, and In the riffle of th sluice boxes, where It was caught la shining modi's, lilt I ftadle gathered up the gold and tossed It about until her sen sitive ear caught the notes of a wild bird, and she mingled her gleeful voice with Its card. The pipes wers still while th work of clot nlng ths bedrock was on, but the party would se th mine In motion, and the proprietor started to the bulk head a half-mile distant to turn the water on. Soon the roirof the water was heaird thun derlng down through the pipes and the water In aie by-washes poured over tho 20-foot bank in rainbow tinted spray. A hug pine treo root was firmly embedded In a point upon which the pipes began to play. The party grouped about watching the mighty forcw of nature, yloldlng to the In v.entlve and mechanical genius of man In carrying on the wtgttntlU enterprises ot me mine, ana an prowled by the inherent dealre for gain, that formed such striking contrast with the slnlem soul of the child which was as yet un touohed by ths basei' elements that noumah and fatten and devour each other in the world's great marts of iraie. iror more than an hour the mighty torrents poured through the giants against the bank and rolled down In a muddy strjam Into the tall race. Ths blinding apray naa rapidly pooled ths atmos phere, ana a strange silence fell uoon the scene. Even the glad, hannv vnle of the child was silenced by the roar of the water and she was gathered in nor mothers arms, and became at once an interested spectator. Pres. ently the great point of dirt and bould ers tumbled down, and was soon dis solved by the pile, and carried down the muddy straaim, Th ride home ward was filled with wondering thoughts of th grvat Invention and mUrh'y ntaohmery ttaU ar tearing out th heart of th mountain In th mad wmrch fir gold.

A he made more than ho found a mar ket for, he sent a nun pie to the linn that furiiiithed his supplies and akd them to buy his surplus.

This lady then brautjht me out a small viol, for which she said she paid 75c, punehaicd from the country drug gist, who had it directly from the guaker family who had for two gen err,tions been famous for the superior quality of their product One great advantage of such a crop Is In Its small bulk which means small freight.
