"Once upon .i time " "Chest
nuts!" said the sultan. "Ruts! Break
nway " said the grand vizier. "Who's
telling this story, anyhow?" replied
.Scheherezade, and fixing the concen
trated gaze of her two eyes on the
G. A'., she remarked: "You cot in
"Wonderfu1, if true!" said the grand
vizier.
'And this brotherhood," continued
Schehcrezadc, "was ns a great tree,
whose roots arc in prolific soil, and
which spread its branches far and
wide, until it became famous through
out all the countries beyond the sea,
for its deeds of Chanty were as pur
ple blossoms, and mingled with them
were the red blooms of Hope, and
all the breezes were laden with their
perfume. And Hie strong limbs wore
emblematic of Protection.
Hut as the tree grew a tiny vine
started at its roots, and entwined
itself about it. And lo! as the tree
was, so was the vine, for the brother

sisters, their wives and their daugh

'Once upon a time," she began again,
"in a country the other side of the
salt sea. there lived a good man."
"Wonderful!" said the sultan.
"Strange, if true." said the grand
vizier. "Now. this good man." con
tinued the story teller. uwas the
friend of the poor and the needy, and
sympathized deepry with those whose
daily toil but sufliced to meet the
expenses of maintaining a family.
This good mar. had observed that
when sickness came to such as these
that the man being cut off from his
labors, either through being the vic
tim, or from having to care for such
member of his family as was sick,
soon became distressed financially,
and in a little while became unable
to suppl' the barest necessaries
of life. lie had observed also
that when one of these men
died, his life labors having been only
sufficient to maintain his family,
nothing was laid by, and soon the
helpless widow and little orphans
became dependent on their weak
efforts for their support, or were
thrown upon the charity of a too un
charitable world.
"Ilis heart being moved by the con
templation of these sorrowful condi
tions, he sat himself to work to dis
cover a remedy. lie gathered his
neighbors to the Lumber ot half
dozen or more, and after calling their
attention to their helpless condition,
he laid before them this plan: 'We
are now all strong and well.' said
this good man. "let us therefore swear
eternal friendship. Let us be as one
family, so that each in turn shall take ! ecture bureau
the burthen from the shoulders of ' .
the wido.vs and the orphans, and as
we each contribute a trifle each
month so long as we are in good
health, so shall it be that when our
time comes, each of those left shall
contribute a trille in turn for us. and
thus there many mites shall make a
goodly sum to maintain our children
and our dear ones. The neighbors
talked the matter over, and the saw
that it was good, and they swore
eternal friendship each to the other.
These friends told what they had
done, to their friends in the next vil
lage, and they likewise took the oath

out all the land the work of this one
