MY COUSIS P.1TSEY.
"Ono of yon girls must go to Lcr at
once, said my mother.
"But, mamma," plcaileil Oriana, "I
can't go, I'm in the midst oi my post
graduate course at college."
"And I can't got" breathlessly aildoil
Louise, who hail just engaged herself to
young Air. Leggett, who kept the ta
tionery store on the corner, ami was in a
fool a paradise of bliss.
"Girls, don't talk such nonsense!" suid
my mother, briskly, "llere is your
Cousin Patsey Pounsett sick out in Wis
consin and needing care and companion
ship. Home one must hasten there."
"Let Flossy go," suggested Oriana.
"Yes," chimod in Louise; "why not
Flossy?"
"But Flossy is such a child," said my
mother in a porturbed voice. "And"
But hero I dropped tho cat out of my
lap and rose, trying to look as till as
possible
"I am nearly eighteen," said I. "And,
oh, mamma, do let me go to poor rich
old Cousin Putsey, and perhaps she will
mako mo her beiioss."
"Dear, dear!" said my niolher; "what
can have put such mercenary ideas in
my child s head.'
"But isn't she very rich?" I questioned.
uo is very eccentric, said my
mother.
"Well, then, of course she is rich,'
nodded. "Eccentric old maids always
arc And, oh, it would bo such fun, and
I should like to see what Wisconsin is
like. I suppose they have bears there
and eirnffes, und all such wild lieasts."
And I ran laughing away after the
kitten, which had frisked out among iho
daffodil iu tho garden. Not, however,
so fur but that I could hear my mother
savinsr: "What a child sho is!" And
Oriana answering, with a laugh:
fanov to her, it might be
of her fortune. Who
"Oh! let her go! If Consiu Patsey
should take a
the mukiug
knows'i
So they bought me a new dress, re
trimmed my plush hat with cherry satin
ribbon, fin 1 sent mo on to Wisconsin,
with Oriana's new traveling bag and
mamma's water proof cloak.
I had never traveled before by myself,
but I quite enjoyed the novelty of tho
situation. 1 had my novel to reail, my
little basket of fruit and sandwiches to
fall buck upon, and all the flitting
scenery to study from my car window
until getting oft at Jvulsilalo to buy
some oranges which had taken my girl
ish fancy, I mistook the car, and found
myself alone and bewildered, in the
midst of strange faces.
"My bag!" I cried. "Oh, I loft my
bag right here on the seat, and now it is
gone. And my check was in it, and my
ticket. Oh, dear! oh, dear! what shall I
do?"
And then a tall, pleasant faced young
man canio forward. I had seen him
once or twice beforo, passing through
the train.
"Was it a canvas bag," said he, " with
'O. II.' on it? And was there a book and
shawl lying beside it?"
And I answered breathlessly :
"Yes."
"It is in the back car," Raid he. You
were sitting there, I think. Allow me
to conduct you thither. The train is in
motion ami it will be diffioult to pass
from one car to another."
And thus, to my infinite relief, I found
my treasuro undisturbed, and, all for
getful of mamma's many cautions, chat
ted and laughed with my new acquaint'
gnce all the way to Powder City.
I confided to him that I was going to a
rich cousin, who wonld probably adopt
me that I never had been away from
home before that my namo was Flora
Earper that my cousin was called Pat
sey Pounsett that I had twenty dollars
in'gold in my pocket-book, and a new,
checked silk dress with fourteen little
flounces up the front.
And not until he bad put me in a cab
at the Powder City Station and directed
the driver to go to Miss Patsey Pounsett,
on the Cedar road, did I realize how
foolishly and unnecessarily communica
tive I have been.
"Oh, dear!" I thought to myself. "I
hope he's not a burglar or a house
breaker." My Cousin Patsey did not live in a
chateau or a picturesque Swiss cottage.
It was a tumble down old farm house,
with a stagnant pond in front and two
dismal weeping willows at the back.
She lay very ill in a dirty old parlor,
with a fire of damp logs sulking in the
fire place, and a general smell of cam
phor about the premises.
She was an ugly, jellow-faced old
woman, ith a hooked nose, and a mous
tache on ber wrinkled upper lip.
"Oh !" said she. "You are Mary Har
per't girl from Down East?"
"Yes," said I faintly, M I looked
around at the uncarpeted floor and mill
dewed walla.
"What can I do for yon, Cousin Pat-
'"You can take tho bellows and blow
up the fire," said the old crone. "And
you can make me some oatmeal gruel.
And to-morrow yon can go out and sell
yarbs for me."
"Sell" I hebitated, uncertain whetli
er I had heard aright.
"larbsl Koreeouea the oiil woman
"Yarbs! Don't you hear me? Catnip,
and penny-rne, ana tarrugan, and lilo
everlustin' and sich the garret's full of
era. That a tuo way 1 makes my livm ,
sollin' yarbs. And I was mortally 'feared
I'd lose all my custom with tho pesky
rlteunmtiz. But it's all right, now you'vo
come. '
So this was my Cousin Patsey! This
was the life of rich refinement to which
I had fancied myself dedicated. I cried
myeelf to sleep that night and dreamed
I was a beggar girl plodding from door
to door.
I was up betimoi in tho morning to
000k Aunt Patsey s breakfast over the
kitchen stove I, tho petted darling of
the household, who had never been a)
lowed at home to know a siugio cure
to clean her room and coniu out her
tangled white hair. And then, with
many reproaches over my slnggihuess
and lack of "faculty, 1 wa sent up
garret to fill a baskot with tho little
bunches of dried herbs w hich were dang
ling from hooks in tho beams overhead.
"What am I to do with them. Cousin
Putney?" said I. feebly.
"Take 'em into town,"s.tid Miss Pat
sey. "Sell "em."
"But whore?" pleaded I,
"irom door to door, responded my
witch-like cousin. "Go evorywhero.
Tell 'em they're Miss Patsey rounsett's
yarbs. Everybody knows uie. Fivo
cents a bnuch for the small ones, ten for
the largest ones. And don't let the
grass grow under your feet, for I've got
to take my hot drink at ono o'clock, and
you must be home to tlx it for me.
And this was a fashionable career of
which I had dreamed at Powder City
Well, what was I to do? I could not go
back to the east, for I had not money
enough. I couldn't write homo, for the
matter of the "yarbs was too pressing
to admit, in tlieoyes of Cousin l'atsey,
of even a moment's delay.
Moreover, thero was tho old creature,
sick, alone and in trouble, and I was too
loyal to dream of leaving her. So, with
out more ado, I took the basket, and sot
forth on my weary way, blushing if any
shrill-tongued housekeeper derided tho
value of my wares.
I sold some herbs enough to buy
Miss Putsey's medicine, and a little
knucklo of veal to boil down into nour
ishing soup and canio home, with mila
dy boots, weary limbs, and a consider'
ably depreciated valuation of myself.
Cousin Putney had a great many ques
tious to ask, and appeared to think that
I might have driven a deal more prout
able business if I had chosen. But sho
was too feeble and weak, and I pitied
her too much to rebel.
On the third day I chanced to meet
my traveling companion tho tall, dark
young man, with tho bright eyes, who
had been instrumental in muling my
traveliucr-bair on my journey. Ho was
iu a Btore where I had meekly proffered
my wares, and ho stopped eagerly for
ward, with a smile of recognition.
"Miss Harper! ' ha exclaimed, offering
his hand.
"JJo you want any herbs?" said I,
with a misohiovous twinklo in my eyes.
"Catnip, tarracan, feverfew! Only five
a bunch! And quite fresh and genuine.'
"I'll buy the whole basket!" said he
"No." I said, "that wouldn't bo busi.
ness. But if vou choose to se'ect half n
dozen assorted bunches"
So he bought them with such wonder
ing eyes that I felt myself coustraiued to
explain.
"My Cousin Putaey isn't rich ot all,"
said I. "she earns her liviug by selling
these herbs. And she is ill und unable
to sell them herself, I am acting as her
proxy,"
"You are a horoino!" said he, earn
estly.
"A very ii.yoluntary ono," I answered
smhing and smiling,
When ho had gone out of the store, I
could not holp asking the old woman bo
hind the counter who ho was.
"It's Mr. Aylmor," sho answered.
"He's an artist, miss, as paints pictures.
and they do say as how lie gets dreadful
bur prices for a bit of canvas as big as
yon could cover with a dinner plate."
Mr. Aylmer came out to tuo farm
house to see me the next Jay. He brought
me a Liuucli 01 rhododendrons, anil sat
and chatted with Cousin Patsey for a
long time. The old crone eyed mo keen
ly after ho was gone.
"i don t approve oi followers as a gen
eral thing," said she, "but I reckon John
Aylmer is a good fellow and I sort o'
think, Flora, that he likes you."
"But, Cousin Patsey, be has only seen
me twice before this!" cried I, turning
very red.
"That makes no difference," said one,
sharply. "Love don't go by the multi
plication table. I've lived solitary and
alone ull my life: but I don't want them
as I'm fond of to do the same: It's too
dreary a dool too dreary!"
I btayed with Cousin ratsey a month,
doing all the drudgery of her wretched
home, selling herbs lor her, keeping up
a cheerful face through it all, and then
she died died suddenly and alone, in
the dead of night.
They buried her, and 1 prepared to
return to tho east; not, however, until
John Aylmer had made me promiso that
if he came for me it autumn, I would be
his wife.
"We shall be poor. Flossy," be said;
"but love is better than gold."
I was Bitting m the depot, waiting for
the train, with John talking to me, when
old Mr. Dodge, the white-wbiskered law
yer, made his appearance.
"Miss i lossy,' he said, "perhaps you
had better not go east just yet. There s
a will, yon know.and all Miss Pounsett's
property is left to yon."
"Oh. ves. air. Lfoaze. saia 1 om
only a hovel and a swamp, and Milo

llarv(stlii(f aud Storing Potatoes.
This month is the time when tho
earlier varieties of potatoes should bo
dug. It is a great niiMake to allow tho
tubers to remain in tho ground until
luto in the fall, as tho generality of farm
ers do. Hence they are exposed to rain
and are liable to rot. or at least to get so
thoroughly impregnated with water that
it takes a long time for them to dry aud
becouio in a proper condition for wintor
storage. Thou the potatoes near the stir
laco Doing exposed to the sun and weatu
er.turn green and are totally nr. tit for use.
1 hen after being dug they are often care
lessly loft in heaps and exposed to the
action 01 tho winds and the siiu. It is
not generally known that a potato ex
posed to a keen wind for a length of tirao
without any sun will greatly jujury its
eating qualities. To retoin" its proper
llavor it should be excluded from tho
light as much as pussible. For tho want
of proper management in harvesting and
storing, a great percentage of the pota
toes in tho country aro spoiled every
year.
luo withering of the slulk tolls that
tho tubers are tit for the harvest, aud
when tho soil is dry tho potatoos couio
Irom the ground clean and bright; if
gathered in rainy weather much soil ad
heres, which injures both appearance
and consequently tho market valuo. Wu
have noticed in .London markets that
people, especially women, prefer a clean,
bright looking potato.
In digging lulled potatoes a fork or
potato hook is easier and faster than a
hoe a fork loosens up tho dirt, yet
leaves it bohind when tho potatoes aro
drawn out. In drills thero is a uniform
depth of planting, and as the potatoes
will be found at about the same, a
plow or potato digger can be used with
advanlago. Plow along each of tho rows
to loosen tho dirt, then, with the plow
sot a little deeper than tho seed bed,
plow over tho rows to throw them to the
surface. All in sight can bo picked up,
and if any be covered a light harrowing
will expose them. They should bo gath
ered up and put under shado at once
for, as we said beforo, tho light turns the
surface green and renders tho potato bit
tor and unwholesome. At the same timo
they must be spread whero tho air ca.i
circulate freely and dry thorn, lest
moist 11 ro in the bin should induce rot.
A cool shod, a barn floor, or a covering
of straw, brush or boards, if tho air has
access to them, will any of them utiswer
the purpose, but don't let a sharp, frosty
wind strike them. It often happens that
a farmer carries 111s potatoes directly
from tho field to the cellar, and they
winter through without harm, yet it is
risking somewhat considering their ha
bilitv to disease
In storing potatoes there is a great
loss in shrinkage from evaporation from
ten to twenty por cent, from tho timo of
storingtill tho following spring, a larger
waste thnn from auy other croi, anil
hence, taking it all around, farmers will
make moro to sell their polutoos in tho
fall than to keep them all wtntor. Bo
can so less evaporation takes place in pits
than in cellars aud bins, many prefer
this method. If so. select a dry, sloping
place, or ou well-drained land, whero
there will bo no dunger of standing
water. Dig a shallow trench, six or eight
inches deep, four feet wide, and as the
quantity to bo protected demands. A
furrow each side this trench is on addi
tionul safeguard against moisture, liidgo
up the potatoes ubout as stoop as tho roof
of a house; cover with straw sulllcient
to keep tho fino earth from sifting
through, and over this throw a thin layer
of soil; leavo an opsning at the top every
five feet and iu sen a stove pipe, or cover
the opening with a slanting board
to shed tho rain. This will allow tho
heat to pass off rapidly. When frost
comes remove the ventilators and fill tho
opouincs with a wisp of hay or straw
When settled cold weather sets in, cover
sullieiently with earth to provont frcez
ing. This trench could bo portioned off
with layers of straw and eartn so that
the potutoes could be opened up in sec
tions as wauted without exposing tho
whole.
If potatoes are intended to be kept in
a cellar, it should be dry and free from
frost, caable of being made perfectly
dark, and of being ventilated quickly
and thoroughly. In such a cellar pota
toes might lie on the floor in neaps with
out injury; but in the majority of cellarg
the floor is no place for them, store
rather in bins or barrels raised a foot or
so from the fiooor. In bins board parti
tions may separato varieties, and there
may be three or four rows of bins one
above another. There is much less
danger of rot in this arragement, and a
greater opportunity is givon to pick
them over in case of disease. However,
temperature is one of tho factors in
keeping a potato. The germinating
power of a potato is injured, if not de
stroyed, when exposed to a temperature
below thirty degrees, and it commences
to grow to a temperature above fifty de
grees. Then a cellar thut could be kept
within this range, or better still, from
thirty-two to forty-five degrees, ought to
furnish sonnd potatoes until spring, and
that would sprout freely. A light sprink
ling of lime upon potatoes when stored
is a preventive against rot. Potato rot is
parasitic fungus, and the lime destroys
the germ. Faimer'a Advocate.
