A narrow house end lowly, but no sounds
Of wrath or fear or grieving mar It peace;
To him who rests within its quiet bounds
There comes from all life bitter pangs, sur
cease. The clinging Tine shall hide It. and the spring
Fling down its scented blossom o'er and
o'er.
The summer birds, clearthroated. round It alng
"And autumn brown-leave drift about Its
door.
The timldlwlldlings of the field and wood,
Unchecked bv fear, its lowly lictels seek,
Where, wrapped In silence and In solitude,
A weary toiler rests, In dreamless sleep.
Sweet sleep, to dream no more of heart grown
cold.
Of hopes long dead, of anguished prayer de
nied,
Of silent voices, so beloved of old,
With whose dear tones, life's sweetest music
died.
0 strange, sad mystery of love and life I
O Death, at once the Judge ana faraciete
After earth's walling discord, pain anu strife,
The Master ' glveth Ills beloved sleep"

MILES' OLD TIMES.
His Wolf-Hunting Steer and Bear-
Killing Wife.
Wolves Prowled Around the Cabin Till
the Steer Found His Mission How
8nsan Showed the Kind of
Woman She Was.
"It does me sort o' trood to git holt o'
some un that likes to hear 'bout ol'
times," said Octogenarian Cuthbert
Miles in his snug1 cabin near the head
of Indian Run, Pa., where for forty
years he has busied himself with fash
ioninp willows into baskets of various
shapes and kinds during; the winter to
Deddle them amontf the backwoods
towns during1 the summer.
'Fore I trot to be a wi lilerer, forty
five years ago an' better," the old bas
ket-makinir recluse went on, me an
my or woman lived down the creek
yender, a couple o' miled, on a nice
clearin', but it got lonesome down
there when she died, an' so I come up
here an' put up this cabin, an' here I
ben ever sence. When we lived on the
clearin' it kep' us busy a good deal o'
the time flirhtin' off bears an' wolves
an painters. t naa a iwo-year-oi
brindle steer that was the greatest
wolf fighter anybody ever heerd on in
this country. We didn't think nothin'
o' seein' wolves prowlin' around the
clcrrin', an' they killed every dog
we"d irit, iist as rcg lar as we got 'em.
But they found out by an by that
they better let that steer alone. He
was nice an' fat, that steer was, an' I
know'd the wolves had their eyes on
him, for it was a cold winter, an' the
snow was deep, an the wolves was
powerful hungry. One mornin' I got
un about sun-uu. as usual, an' went
out to feed the steer an' tne cow an
the oien an' the pigs. A I was goin
to the barn 1 heerd a tremendous
hellabaloo In the loir shed where I
kep' that steer. The steer was beller
n' as if he had a liellV lull n t ne mosi
irrlnin' ache that ever griped, an
mixed un with his bellerin I could
hear a snappiu' an' a snarlin' an'
rrrowlin' that I know d didn t come
lrom no belly ache.
'Wolves!' ays I. 'A passel o' blame
hungry wolvea a tryin' to chaw up that
ateer!'
That was enoutrh fer me, an I
struck a gallon an' started to give the
hteer a lift ag'in 'em. I slung the door
open, an' there I we one big wolf witn
its fangs socked plumb inter me htecr
noho. while another un. bigger yet, was
trniihliin' nway at one o' his flunks.
The nicer was rushin around the shed,
bellerin' an' Huirlin' an try in to
whang the wolf ng'in the In;,' sides o'
the pen. He did whung it, too. but the

the fence. 'Mother mornin' I found
nine, an' they was ripped an' stomped
oncommon awful! Arter that, wolves
give that clearin' o' mine the go-by, I
tell ye, an I was sorry, fer the steer
jist pined an' pined, an' one night
jumped the fence an' went away. I
couldn't find him to git him back, but
I heerd on him now an' then. He was
spendin' his time in the woods huntin
wolves, an' when the last wolf that
was left in the Injin creek deestric' got
lonesome an' dug out to'ards the set-
tin' sun, I think that steer follered his
trail, 'cause 1 never heerd o' him nor
the wolf ag'in.
One night I woke up, down yonder
on the clearin, an' heered my two pigs
a squealin', an' my cow an' the oxen
bellerin' an' thumpin'in the barn like
as if they'd kick it down.
" 'Susan,' I savs to the old woman,
tha's a most onheerd of rumpus goin
on out there among the critters,' I says.
" 'Seems so, Job,' says she. 'Git up.
she says, 'an' go see what's a-stirriu' of
em up.
"Sol got up an' slid my clothes on,
an' hustled out to see what the fuss
was all about. The moon was shinin'
most like day, an' as I trotted over
to'ard the pig pen I see what the
trouble was. Two big bears was in the
pen workin' their very pootiest to hist
one o' my pigs out over the side o' the
pen, which was only a sort of a square
concern, laid up with logs four foot
high.
" 'Pork is pork!' I says. 'I hain't ben
a-feedin' them pigs up to this notch o'
heft for bears to come in an lug off,' I
says. '
"So I run back to the cabin an' got
my gun. If the gun had had sumpin'
in it with more business to it than pi
geon shot, the hull touble would a ben
settled consarned quick. Pigeon shot
was all it had in, though, an' if Susan
herself hadn't been loaded fer bear, I
dunno know how things would a come
out. When I run back fer the gun. I
says:
" 'Susan,' says I, 'bears! They'm
takin' away our pork!"
" 'lie they?' says Susan, gittin' up an'
grittin' her teeth. Most astoundin'
woman, Susan was. "He they?' aaya
she. 'We'll see about that!'
"Susan didn't even stop to put her
stockin's on. She grabbed a double
bitted ax, an' hollerin' fer me to come
on with the gun rushed out to hev a
little argymcnt wvth them bears.
"The bears was still strugglin' to git
the squealin' pig over the fence, an' the
cattle whs thuinpin' an' kiukin' an' bel
lerin', hympathizin' with the pigs, an'
trj i'i" to skecr the hears uway . Me an'
Susan got to the pen, on' 1 rested my
gun on the top log o' the fence an'
blazed uwuy. The eud o' the gun ImrT
wa n t two feet away from one o' the
bears, but mv nerves must a ben a
tie upsot, for instead o' borin' a hole
Clear, through the W'urs iiend I only
jist sin it away his fore paw That wai
siiinpin' the Wnr wouldn't at and with
out lindin' fault. If I'd a-hort-d a hole
through his head he wouldn't a said a
word. 1'ut to hev his usefulness
knocked Inter a cocked iiat hy the
blow in' off o' one o' his paw whs too
much, an' he lifted up hia voice an'
made the wood ring and my hair raise
at the haine time. An' be come fer me.
So tlid t'other bear.
"Hood by. Susan.' say I. Til aee
yon ag'in when liabriel blow.'
"( ause I thought my time bad come.
'"Veil aee me at break flint!' aaya
Susan, an' ahe rix her ax an' sunk It
rlean to the hnnd'e in the well War's
brain. Th Iwar dropped back Into
the pen an' never awid another word,
but the ax was not i deep In It head
that mi sun couldn't yank it out. an' a
the bear fell back it wrenched the han
dle outfit her hand. The wounded
bear ram rldt on. My gun didn't
