' THE LOST KISS.
I put by the half written perm,
Vliilcihc prn.iJ'.y trailed in my hand,
A" rites on. 'LIad 1 words to complcto it.
Who'll road It, or who'd nnilorstand?'
But the littlo bara (tot on tho stairwuT,
And tho faint, smothered laugh In the WU,
And tho oorio low lisp- on too iilaaoe
Cry up to me over It ail
So I gather tt tip hers was broken
The tear faded thread of my theme.
Tolllnc how, as ono nifht I tat writing,
A fairy brnho in on my dream
A littlo Inquiiilivo fairy
Jly own littlo flirt, with tlie gold
Of the sun in her hair and the dewy
Blue eyes of the fairies of old.
Twos the dear litt'c eirl that I scolded
Tor was it a moment like this."
I eaid, "when f lic knew I was busy
To come romping in for a kiss?
Come rowdying tip from her mother.
And clamoring there at my knee
For 'one 'lttle kiss for my dolly
And one 'ittle uzzer for me'.' "
God pity the heart that repelled her
And the cold hand that turned her away.
And take from the lips that denied her.
This answerless prayer of today!
Take, Lord, from my mcm'ry forever
That pitiful sob of despair,
And the patter and trip of the little hare
leet,
And tho one piercing cry on the stair!
I put by the half written poem,
While the pen, idly trailed in my hand.
Writes on, "Had 1 words to complete it.
Who'd read it, or who'd understand?"
But the little bare feet on the stairway,
And the faint, smothered launh in the hall,
And tho eerie low lisp on the silence
Cry up to me over it all.

FEMININE TRAITS.
Jim Hardin, with much deliberation,
drew toward him the tobacco can and
proceeded to stuff the bowl of his pipe
full of the weed. It wa9 Bignificaiit.
Wo knew wo were about to hear what
Jim called an "antidote," and our faces
and attitudes at once expressed profound
interest.
"Women," said Jirn between puffs,
"is queer tattle yes, they be. A fuller

on thinlrin so fur awhile. Then he finds
out all of a suddint th't what he thinks

and what he does know.
"One woman ain't nomoreliko'nother

th'r p'rverse. They be, an they cain't

they don't wanter help it that's th' p'r
vevsity of 'em. W'y, ye never seen no

Lord A'mighty didn't make 'em that way
no tnor'n all cattle ia Shorthorns, and I've
saw a lot.
"I was jes' thinkin of a couplo o' cases
I c'n ree'lect.
"Up in Dakoty I knowed a feller th't
hed a reg'lar thor'ughbred wife. I lis
name was Siiimnis, an ho kep' storo up
to Bessemer, also sellin wagons an grain.
He was a i'rao feller, this Sammis, an
noting was too good fer him, not even
his woman, an they was reg'lar Btuck
on each, other. Mis' Sinumia had all they
was goin Sammis had dust, an he wa'n't
'fraid t' put it up. They had a lino
house, kep' a Chinese cook an a hired
girl, un had av'ry thing folks c'n hanker
for, includin wurious trips t' Omaha w
and Chicago ev'ry year. I knowed 'em
a lung time, an I never seen folks get
along so smoolh t'getlier jes' liko them
doves that sits on th' fence b' th' stable.
They'd been hitched seven V eight year,
had a braco of as likely kids as yo ever
Been, an still folks used t' say tillers how
much them Sammis did sot by each
other. It beat tho dooco sure, an
miL'ht'vo went on fer all timo, ef Sam-
mis hadn't gone an got inter trouble.
"Come ono year biznesB was slack at
the Btore cash himess, I mean an
Bammis, he lot out a heap of stock on
time, fer grub stakes an th' like. Cut
he'd likewise b'en playin poker bouio, us
uzhal, and was sh fer stull w'en one
day some o' th' people ho wasowin called
fer him t' settle tip. He'd b'en borryin
dust fr'm tho c'loction he'd made fer
some of 'em, 'xpectin t' pay up right
Boon, but ho didn't c'uect proper, an
they sinchod 'int. Ev'rybody at Bes
Bemer took iv hand 'xcept a few o' them
th't c'd 'vo liolpcd him most, an ought
er've did it an tried to help Sam out,
but foelin innercont Sam. ho wouldn't
have it none whatever an tol them east
ern cusses th't, seein they didn't wanter
wait till fall an git a fa r stjunr up, they
O'd go t' tho devil, an he'd go t' jail. So
they son's im up two years beltin rock in
th' pen. We'd 'vo got a gang t'getlier
an took im 'way from tho oU'usere, but
Sam sent us word he didn't want nothin
o' th' sort ho was goin t' take his sassy
fras liko a man, an he's dono it.
"Now don't think for a minute th't nil
this timo Mis' Sammis wan't doin noth
in. Great Enoch! that woman hustled
like a major wint t' tho men as was
eiiidiin Sam an begged an pleaded an
might 've got 'em t' givo in ef Sam
hadn't been so uppish with 'em. She
looked jes' or ful duriu th' trial, an took
on tur'blo w'en th' jedgo sent'need Sam.
She didn't look liko she uater fer a long
timo, jes' got paler an moro peakedlike,
an folks thought she was goin t' die olT
sure, 'limit three months later she went
t' see Sam, an Sum, he tol me 'bout it a
couplo years ago. They had a real scene,
'"mini o' tears an real spoony love, an
t wanted t' know ef it wouldn't bo
-r fer her t' get a divorce, 'cause he
us a disgrace t' her. Then o' course
"(he falls on 'is neck an weeps u hull lot,
an sez as how she'll stick t' him till th'
ol Harry goes into th' ieo cream bizness,
r somethin like that.
"An, gents, it wa'n't three months
longer b'l'oro she gits her doggone de
votee an splices with a buUlhcadcd ol
duffer fin l'enusylvany th'l'd come to
Dukoty t' git unhitched hisself ! Oh, it
was tough, I tell ye. Sammis, he's out
now, doin good bizness, an got his kids
ftt Bessemer, too, b'gosli an also behuviii
hissel. ' But he was considerable broke
up w'en tli-' woman shuck 'im."
Hero Jim paused to relill his pipe, and
wo took advantage of tho opportunity
briefly to debute the question us to wheth
er or not Mrs. Sammis was justified in
doing as sho did. Jim then proceeded:
"Th' other case I was thinkin of is dif
f'runt n hull )'. Th' woman in it was
"bout th' same caliber as t'other one, I
reckon, but more perseverin.
"It wa3 tip in Dakoty, too, this hero
case; over 't Oilman, 'bout 20 miles fr'm
Bessemer. I.was shcrulU then an knowed
ev'ry ody in th' blame comity. B'sides
tli' gyurl was a sorter relation o' mine,
how I came t' know u'lmich about it.
"This here gyurl was a dandy high
Stepper. Her ol man was well fixed an
he'd went t' school t' St. Louis an was
puny persnicltety. Ulame hno gyurl,
stunnin purty an nice, but persnickety,
cause some o' th' finest and lst fixed
boys ia th' county wanted 'er, an she
turned np her nose at th' boil bilin.
Treated 'em nil nice an oil that, but
treated Van alike, Wioh was onpleasant
fer th' boys.
"Tho trouble was, I reckon, she'd be n
readin a hull lot tf blame trash, an
xpected some prince wa9 contra 'Ions t'
offer hisself, w'ich did hapjwn, only he
wa'n't no prince, 'xcept, mebbe, 'cordin
f her notion. It was a blame dood fr'm
somewhere east th't struck town an got
a job 't th' Cleveland smelter keepin
time a feller named 'r callin hisself
Ward Forttscue.
"He hadn't hardly struck th' camp
b'forehim an Maruo meets each other an
is mashed, most immejit, He was one
o' these slim, purty ducks tbt c'n sing
lots an put up a real smooth talk, an
make book love one o' tnese sweet
warts th't a feller aches t' spank an kick.
I s'pose it's women's natur' t' git stuck
on 'em, 'cause they alius do.
"Anyhow, Fortescue, as he called his
self, wades right in an rushes Mame fer
all he was worth, an Mame she liked it
all right, so 'twa'n't long 'fore she up an
tells her folks th't him and her is goin
t' git spliced. The ol lady was tickled
lots, 'cause Fortescue had lied t' her con
sid'ble 'bout his folks an how rich they
was, an so on; but th' ol man kicked
right smart, tellin Mame th't Mister
Dood had got t' cough up his papers
an show his hand, likewise givin Smith
names of people they c'd write to fer
recommends.
"Mame, as I said b'fore, had sperrits
herself, an she kicked hard, sayin she
was of age an her own boss, an c'd do as
she nleased: but th' ol gent got hot in
the collar an tol her t' shet up, w'ich she
done, keepin up heaps o' thinkin all tli'
time.
"Th' ol gent come t' me an chiuued
awhile; then he went an seen Berry
Wright, th' lawyer, un he writes some
letters, w'ich, for a wonder, one was an
swered real prompt. Finkerton's agency
wrote th't th' d'scription b'longed to a
chap named Ward th't was wanted in
Michigan fer shakin his wife and leavin
th' bank he worked fer in th' hole.
"I tuck th' letter an started fer
Smith's after I'd et supper. On th' way
up, hero come Smith, like a hen with 'er
head cut off, shakin han's with hisself
an tur'ble 'xcited, 'cause he'd be'n t' see
Fortescue, an Fortescue told 'im ho was
dead sure t' marry th' gyurl ef she didn't
shed 'm.
"I tol th' ol gent 'bout th' letter an
other evidence, an he felt better. Then
we walked up t' th' house and waded
inter th' gyurl, provin t' her th't the cuss
was as low lived a scamp as they was
out o' jail. D'ye think she keered? Oh,
no. Sho jes' rips out at me, and you bet
she roasted me bad, windin up b' hopen
she'd never see mo again. Then she
turns on th' ol gent with a lot o' rot
'bout his slanderin Fortescue, an how
she loves the blame rascal an is goin t'
toiler 'im t' th' devil or somewheres.
"Th' next mornin her an the dood was
missin. They went t' th' next camp, got
married by a jestice o' th' peace an
skipped. She wrote t' th' ol folks fr'm
Denver, uskin t' bo fergiven an sayin
how happy she was, but her pa wrote
back sayin she c'd come home jes' w'en
she pleased if she'd leave Ward Smith
called 'im Ward, w'ich 'was his name,
Blue 'nough an came t' Btay.
"Did she come? I sh'd say no. She
stuck t' Ward an got treated like a dog
for it. He used t get drunk and buse
Mamo, an raised Cain all sorts o' ways
an still sho didn't kick none. We never
give Pinkerton's any more information,
so Ward wasn't bothered none f'r a cou
plo o' years. Then he up and run away
fin Mamo an th' kid, leavin 'em nary
red; but it jes' happened he met a feller
th't knowed im, an he was gently runned
in an tuk t' Michigan. They Bocked it to
'm hard, too, cause his first wife's folks
was riled up, an the bank ho'd Btole from
was likewise achiu t' take a fall out of
im.
"Mame? She's at D'troit I don't know
how she got there takin in eewin and
tryin t' keep her an th' kid alive till that
skunk gits out o' jail. '

"And what are we to do for society?"
"Pshaw!" said Chesuey, "1 would not

ety for themselves. There'll be the house-

about the place for Will una spencer, i
shall keep a horse if I can get one cheap,
for the station is half a mile from the
place, and I've bargained for a couple of
cows and some pigs." I
Meanwhile Mr. Chesney explained to
his wife the various advantages which
were to accrue from the promised move. !
"It's unfortunate," said he, "that Elma
and Eosie aren't boys. Such a lot of
women folks are enough to swamp any
family. Men now can always earn their
bread. Bat we must try to make every-
body useful in some way or other. It's

"Are there any modern conveniences

Chesnev.
"There's a spring of excellent water
about a hundred yards from the house,"
said her husband.
Mrs. Chesnev grew pale.
"Have 1 got to walk a hundred yarns
for every drop of water I want?" said she. I
"And a large rainwater hogshead un
der the eaves of the house," added Mr.
Chesney. "And I've already got a bar
gain in kerosene lamps. As for candles,
1 am given to understand that good
housekeepers make 'em themselves in tin
molds. There's nothing' like economy.
Now 1 do beg to know. Abigail," he
added irritably, "what yon are looking

The first sight of Mulleinstalk farm
was dispiriting in the extreme. Between
rock and swamp there was scarcely
pasture tor me two ... r
Chesney had bought at a bargain, and
. l 1, sf
the hollow
backed horse which stauteu
about the premises like some phantom
Bucephalus.
The apple trees in the orchard were
three-quarters dead, and leaned sorrow
fully away from the east winds, until
their houghs touched the very ground,
fences had all gone to ruin and the front
gate was tied up with a hemp string.
"Is this homer" said Elma, with an in
describable intonation in her voice.
"We'll get things all straightened up
after awhile," said Mr. Chesney, bustling
to drive away the pigs, which had broken
out of their pen ami were squealing dis
mally under the window.
Mrs. Chesney cried herself to sleep that
night and awakened tho next morning
with every bone instinct with shooting
pains.
"And no wonder," said Spencer;
"there's a foot of water in the cellar."
"We must have it drained," said Mr.
Chesney, with an uneasy look; "but
there's plenty of things to do first."
And now began a reign of the strictest
economy. Mr. Chesney himself paid for
everything with checks, and not an arti
cle came into the house or went out of it
without his cognizance. New dresses
were frowned upon; spring bonnets were
strictly interdicted; orders were issued
that old carpets should be reversed, and
broken dishes repaired with cement and
quicklime.
"Save, save, save! that is the chief
thing." he kept repeating briskly. "Wom
en folks can't earn; they should try their
best to save."
"Boys," fluttered Kosie, 'Tve an idea.
Mary Penn, who lives on the next farm,
you know, came over to see Elma and
me yesterday. Papa is earning his living;
we'll earn something too."
"1 should liko to know how," muttered
Spencer. "I might hire out somewhere
if it wasn't for that wretched old horse,
and the pigs, and the wood chopping,
and"
"Oh, but there is something that won't
interfere with the chorea, nor with
school," said cheerful little Rosie. "Just
listen all I ask of you is to listen."
And the weeks grew into months, and
the red leaves eddied down into little
swirls from the maple trees, and "pig
killing time" came, and with the aid of a
lame, one eyed man Mr. Chesney laid
down his own stock of pork and sau
sages, with tho sense of being triumph-
antly economical.
The family had left off complaining
now. Apparently they were resigned to
their doom. But there were some things
that Mr. Chesney could not explain at all.
A new rug brightened tip tho dismal
hues of the parlor carpet; Kosie had a
crimson merino dress, trimmed with
black velvet harsi Elma's fall t.w
was edged with substantial black fur,
and grand climax of extravagance
Mrs. Chesney had a new shawl in place
of the old gannent which had been her
mother's before her.
He looked at tho housekeeping books
with renewed vigilance. He consulted
the stubs of his checkbook with a notice
that nothing could escape.

"And mamma is coming to live with

damp house and this hard work any
longer."
But Mrs. Chesney did not go to the
penn farm. Mr. Chesney hired a stout
Berving maid and laid drain pipes under
the kitchen stoop. If his wife really
understood her business so well, it was
worth while to keep her well and active,
he considered. n

A Woman's wit.
The other day, says a correspondent
from Alsaco, while I was on my way
from M. to Z., I found myself in com-
pany with four gentlemen, each of whom
was smokinr. The train stopped at an
intermediate station, and a lady was on
' "ie Point of e," terinS ' B8
: thecamage dor and observing that she
carried a basket, I hastened to help her
In with it. "Take care," said the lady,
"I have six pounds of dynamite in that
basket, which I am taking to my hus
band in a stone quarry." The train then
sped on. Quick as lightning the gentle
men exchanged glances arsa threw their
cigars out of the window. All looked
horror stricken as they glanced first at
the frau and then at the basket.
My thoughts conjured up visions of
the destruction of the Cafe Very iu Par
is. My ruminations were suddenly dis
turbed by a shout of "Station O!" yelled
out by a porter. The frau rose slowly

Breeding fro Crippled Mares.
In answer to aAquestion from The
Rural New Yorker on this subject J. S.
Crosby writes from Greenfield, Mich.:
In my lumbering operations in this
state 1 hud it quite difficult to get such
draft horses as I need. We imported
from Canada and sent directly to the
woods about forty head of grade mares,
Shires and Clydes. They had been bred
in Canada and were half, three-quarter
and seven-eighth bloods, etc. All pur
chased and brought here were as good
specimens as we could find in Canada,
and cost from $175 to $240 per head
W(j hem ,n 00l8 at
work at the heavy business of lnmber
ing.
When we have used them two or three
years, if they become injured or debili
tated, we send them to our farm and put
them on grass until they are in perfect
health, although not sufficiently strong
for the heavy work in the woods. They
are then bred to the stallion and used
about the farm for light work until
about four months before foaling time,
when they are again turned loose and
I possible to get a mare with the heaves
in foal. If a mare is injured in the legs
or if she has flesh wounda or other in
juries that prevent her from doing hard
work, she may be in just as good a
shape to breed as though she did not
have these wounds or injuries. It is
our experience that one seldom sees on
the colts from perfectly Bound and
strongly bred stallions from the Shire
or Clyde breeds any blemishes like side
bones, spavins or other troubles that
cause lameness. We have never had
any unsatisfactory colts from the above
mentioned treatment of the breeding
question. One is perfectly safe in breed
ing mares to perfectly Bound stallions
with properly shaped feet and leg bones.
Of course the mares must not have
blemishes from such causes as ringbone,
sidebone, spavins or other like blem
ishes and we would never advise breed
ing a mare that has the heaves.
