He buthiMl tho foot of hla dog which hud tM-en plerciil by a thorn. The tirulwa on hla own buck hnd hud five daya to lienl In, and, except a little BtliTncaa In hla inovenienU, there was uothliiK reumrkalilu ultout the boy.

If you wound the tree In Ita youth, the hark will quickly cover the gash; but when the tree la very old, peellnjj the hark off nnd looking enref ully, you will see the aear there still. All that la burled la not dead. Wnldo poured the warm milk over the little swollen foot. Doha lay very quiet, with tears In his eypa. Then there wos a tap At tho door. In on In stant I loss looked wide awake nnd winked the tenra out from between his little lids. "Come In," snld Waldo, Intent on his work, and slowly and cnutlnualy tho door opened.

"How are you this even Ingr Doss growled and showed his little teetb and tried to rlno, but bis paw hurt htm so ho whined. "I'm very tired, Waldo, my boy," said Bonaparte, plaintively. Posa showed his little white teeth again. His master went on with his work without looking round. There are some people at whose bands It Is best not to look. At last he said: "Come In." Bonaparte stepped cautiously a little way Into the room and left the door open behind htm. He looked at the boy's supper on the table. "Waldo, I've hnd nothing to eat nil day. I'm very hungry," he snld. "Eat," said Waldo after a moment, bending lower over his dog. "You won't go and tell her that I am here, will you, Waldo?" said Bona parte, most uneasily. "You've heard bow she used me, Waldo? I've been badly treated. You'll know yourself what It Is some day when you can't carry on a little conversation with a lady without having salt meat and pic kle water thrown at you. Waldo, look at me. Do I look as a gentleman should r But the boy neither looked tip nor an swered, and Bonaparte grew more uneasy. "You wouldn't go and tell her that 1 am here, would you?" said Bonaparte whlnlngly. "There's no knowing what he would do to me. I've such trust In you, Waldo. I've alwaya thought you such a promising lad, though you mayn't have known It, Waldo." "Rat," said the boy. "I shall say nothing." Bonaparte, who knew the truth when another spoke It, closed the dimr, carefully putting on the button. Then be looked to ace that the curtnln of the window was closely pulled down and seated himself at the table. He was soon munching the cold meat and bread. Waldo knelt on the floor, bath ing the foot with hands which the dog licked lovingly. Once only he glanced at the table and turned away quickly. "Ah, yes! 1 don't wotulor that you can't look at me, Waldo," said Bona parte. "My condition would touch any heart. You seo, the water was fatty, and that hns made all the sand stick to me. And my hair," snld Bonaparte, tenderly touching the little fringe nt tho back of his head, "la all caked over like a little plank. You wouldn't think It was hair at all," said Bonnparte plaintively. "I bad to creep all along the stone walls for fear she'd see me and with nothing ou my hend but a red handkerchief tied under my chin, Wnl do, and to hide In a 'sloot the whole day, with not a mouthful of food, Wnl do. And she gave me such a blow Just here," said Bonaparte. He bad cleared the plate of the Inst morsel wLvn Waldo rose and walked to the door. "Oh, my Waldo, my dear boy, you ar. not going to call her," aald Bona parte, rising anxiously. "I am going to sleep In the wagon," said the boy, opening the door. "Oh. we can both aleep In thta bed. There's plenty of room. Do stay, my boy, please." But Waldo stepped out. "It waa such a little whip, Waldo," said Bonaparte, following him depre catlngly. "I didn't think It would hurt you so much. It was such a little whip. I'm sure you didn't take the peaches. You aren't going to call her, Waldo, ara your But the hoy walked off. Bonaparte waited till his figure had pAssed round the front of the WAgon house and then slipped out He hid himself round the corner, but kept peeping out to see who was coming. He felt sure the boy was gone to call Taut' Sannle.

He buttoned the door and put the table against It, and, giving the dog a kick to alienee hi whining when the foot throbbed, ha climbed Into bed. He did not put out the light for fear of the ghost, but, worn out with the sorrows of the day, waa aoon asleep himself. About 4 o'clock Waldo lying be tween the avals of the horse wagon, waa awakened by a gentle touch on hla hend. Sitting up, be espied Bonaparte look ing through ono of the wlndowa with a lighted candle in his hand. "I'm about to depart, my dear boy, before my enemies arise, and 1 could not leave without coming to bid you farewell." snld Bonnparte. Waldo looked at bim. "I shall alwaya think of job with af fection," said Bonaparto. "And there's that old hat of youra. If yon could let me have It for a keepsake" "Take It," said Waldo. "I thottgiit you would say so, so I brought it with mu," said Bonaparte, putting It on. "The Lord bless you, my dear bof. You haven't a few shillings, Jut a trifle you don't need, have you?" "Take the two shillings that are lo the broken vase." "May the blessing of my God rest upon you, my dear child," aald Bona parte. "May he guide and bleaa you. Give me your hand." Wnldo folded hla arms closely and lay down. "Farewell, adieu!" said Bonaparte. "May the blessing of my God and my father's God rest on you, now and evermore." With these words the bend and nose withdrew themselves, and tbe light vanished from the window. After a few moments the boy, lying in the wngon, beard stealthy footsteps as they passed the wagon bouse and mnde their way down the rond. He listened as they grew fainter and fainter and at last died away alto gether, and from that night the foot steps of Bonnparte Blcnklns were heard no more at the old farm. CnAPTEIt XIV. TIMES AND BKASORA, Wsldo lay on bia stomach on the sand. Since he prayed and howled to bis God In the fuel bouse three years had passed. They say that la the world to come time is not measured out by months and years. Neither la It here. Tbe soul's life hns seasons of Its own, pe riods not found in any calendar, times that years and months will not scan, but which are as deftly and sharply cut off from one another as the amoothly arranged yenra which tbe earth'a mo tion yields us. To stranger eyes these divisions are not evident, but encb, looking back at the little track his consciousness il luminates, sees It cut Into distinct por tions, .whose boundaries are tbe termi nation of mental states. As man differs from man, so differ these souls' years. The most material life Is not devoid of them; the story of the most spiritual Is told In them. And It may chance that some, looking back, see the past cut out after this fashion: L The year of Infancy, where from the shadowy background of forgetfulneas start out pictures of startling clear ness, disconnected, but brightly col ored and indelibly printed In the mind. Much that follows fades, but the colors of those baby pictures are permanent. There rises, perhaps, a warm sum mer's evening. We are seated on tbe doorstep; we have yet the taste of the bread and milk In our month, and the red sunset Is reflected In our basin. Then there la a dark night, where, waking with a fear that there Is some great being in the room, we run from our own bed to another, creep close to some large figure and are comforted. Then there Is remembrance of the pride when, on some one's shoulder, with our arms around their bead, ws ride to see the little pigs, the new little pigs with tbelr curled tails snd tiny snouts. Where do they come from? Remembrance of delight In the feel and smell of the first orange we ever see; of sorrow which makes na put np our lip and cry bard when one morning we run out to try to catch the dow drops and they melt and wet our little fingers; of almighty and despairing sorrow when we are lost behind tbe kraala and cannot see the bouse any. where. And then one picture starts out mora vividly than any. There has been a thunderstorm. The ground as fur ns the eye can reach Is covered with white ha 11. The clouds sre gone, and overhead a deep blue sky Is allowing. Far off a great rain bow rests on the white earth. We, standing In a window to look, feel tbe cool, unspeakably sweet wind blowing In on us, and a feeling of longing cornea over ua unutterable longing, we cannot tell for what. We are so smsll our head only reaches as high As tbe Drat three panes. We look St the whits earth and the rainbow and the blue sky; and, oh, ve want it, we want, we do not know what. We cry aa though our heart was broken. When one lifts our little body from tbe window, we cannot tell w hat alia aa We run away to play. Bo looks the first year. it. Now the pictures become contlnnons snd connected. Material things still rule, but the spiritual and. Intellectual take their places. In the dark night when we are afraid we pray and shut onr eyes We press our floors very hard npon the lids and ee dark spots moving round and ronnd, and we know tbey sre beads and wings of an ads sent to tike care Continued on Fourth Pag. CRASBEKkY 1MHSIKY TO BE IS. USTHjiATFO. Mr. L. Q. Powers, the Chief Stat istician in charge of the agricultural luvewtiffation of tho twelfth census. Is making an eMiiet-ial effort to insure the adequate and complete represent ation of all hrahchoKof agricultural Industry by tho Htatird io which will be collected under his direction. AI the same time he has not considered It advisable, to place upon the general agricultural schedule w hich will be placed In the hands of the enumera tors, very detailed inquiries concern ing crops, the production of which is strictly h Rid i ml. Nueh products will be provided for in special sched ules, which will le distributed in the localities only in which the croM to which they relate are grown. Among the industries to receive treatment of this character, cranberry culture Is one of the tiuwt important. The special schdulo to be used in this ineHtigation has boon prepared, and will be distributed soon after the lit st of January, I'.lOO, at which time It is believed that nearly the entire production lor the year 18',1'J will have been marketed. Tbe main dependence in this in vest igal ion will be upon schedules to be transmitted and returned by mail, aud therefore its success will depend very largely upon the Interest mani fested by cranberry growers. II they co-operate cordially with the census ofllce, (he importance and extent of their industry will be fully represent ed in the report on agriculture, and its rank among the Hfial agricul tural irilus'iiis will receive suitable public ms gniiiou. If tliey fail lo do so, however, Iheir industry cannot but appear unfavorably, as compared with those which are more fully re-preM-nli d in the census statistics. The inquiries to lie made will in clude questions concerning the own ership ol each plantation or bog, as it is of course desirable lo show what proportion of the total acreage is cultivated by thoso who own the land, and what proportion by ten ants. An attempt will bo made to segregate the area in natural vines from that In planted vines, and an Inquiry concerning the number of vines planted during the last three years has been framed in order to ascertain the numls-r of young vines and thus Indicate in some degree the probable future progress of the in dustry. There will also bo two inquiries concerning tho quantity produced during 18!t'.l, so as to show sopcrately the production from natural and from planted vines. The net value of his cranlierry crop of 1899 will lie asked of each producer, and care will be taken to exclude from this value the e st of picking and marketing. It Is desir ed also lo ascertain the amount paid for labor and for fertilizers during the crop year, snd in accordance with the desire of many of IhASne engaged in the Industry, estimates will lie re quested of the extent of any reduc tion In the crop, below what may tie regarded as the normal production which may have occured durring 1809 on aeoount-of blight, early frosts (M other causes. Probably everyone understands at this time that the woik of the census oltlce is in no wsy connected with taxation or the vnr ous agencies for assessing taxes, and no one will now hesilate on account of an erroneous impression to the contrsry, to furn ish the information asked. The cen sus office also emphasizes the fact that there will I t o disclosure ol the private business of any inuivid usl; that aggregates only will be shown in its reports, snd that all in- formation received in the schedules will, so fsr as Individual reports sre concerned, lie regarded as strictly confidential. TI.e census office has had extensive correspondence with the officers of the various cranberry growets' asso ciations, with individual roducers, and with others who have maniiest- ed an I nlerest in this branch of agri cultural industry, and has made every effort lo frame its schedules in accordance w ith Iheir desires, ll Is to 1 hoped IhMt these i 'Torts will be appreciated by thou who may I directly lietieHtcd by them, tn.l Inst they in luru will do all in Iheir pow er 10 assist the census office In con ducting its inquiries. As it is essential, if the industry is to be completely represented, that the census office hoiild have a com plete list of those engaged in It, there will I enclosed with each schedule a lint ol Own known lo Ihe census offloa aa be'ng engaged In cramberry within the locality to which Ihe In. inquiry Is sent, and Ihe recipient will be requested lo furiu'sh lo the office Ihe names of any persons not on Ihe list, who art) cramberry growers. I o this wsy It is hoped to secure all lliej nsiues of those who sre not now li ti ed in the census office. The ultt.v will then forward schedule to all such person, aud if they repiMind promptly and satisfactorily, there can be no reason for the oinisHion of any Important portion of the total cranberry production. HOW 80LluTllSW'MiE-RAISEI IS "I nollce," said the Major, "that some British officer says the war en thusiasm Is ho great in cities like Liverpool and Edinburgh lhat he could raise a regiment of uien in two weeks. Here in Chicago, w here we raised eight regiments in one week, this sounds a little queer, but I re member in lSti'.', when (Jovtrnor Todd of Ohio raised 40,000 men in two days. That was when Kirby Smith was threatening Cincinnati and General Ilragf was marching on Louisville. Todd issued a proclama tion through the daily newspapers asking all nu n in Ohio who Ksea- set! rifles, powder, and lead to meet at their county towns, organize in companies, am' proceed at once to Cincinnati. Ha stated that the city was in great peril, and he appealed to Ihe older men who owned squir rel rifles and knew how to shoot, be cause he felt that they could make immediate response and could go in to service ready to shoot." "The response was a surprise to even Ihe most sanguine. Old men and young men gathered by the thousands, each bringing his squir rel rifle, hisswder horn, and pouch of bullets, his haversack loaded with home provisions and bis blankets or comiori or quilt, t hese men were trausiiorted In extra trains to Cin cinnati, went at once across Ihe river to the intrenchments, and remained until Kirhy Smith retreated. Not many of them had a chancj to shoot, but those who did shot at confede rates as they would at squirrels and ceer, and it was believed that the presence of these uolooked for 40,000 men with squiirel rifles, all gmsl shots, had influence in determining Ihe course of Oeneral Kirby Smith. At ail events, he retreated, and the squirrel hunters returned homo," OSE HUNORElt YEARS A0, John Adams was President. Tbe seat of government was re moved fron Philadelphia to Wash ington. War with France waa imminent but averted. Louisiua extended from Canada lo Mexico, and from Ihe Mississippi lo the Rockies. Florida was under Spanish do minion. The Hudson river had yet to see a steamboat. Ureat lakes were under Uiitish control. Slaves were still imported from Africa. There wasn't a railroad in our land. No telegraph. No cable. No electric lights, Twa9 ye tallow dip that flourished. Farmers were using armstrong mowers. No threshing machines. No cook stoves. No bridges across rivers. In fact, to make a long story short, it may as well be said that 'twould take much longer to tell the things they had not than those they had. Having a brest Run en Chainberlaiu's I'eagh Remedy. Manager Martin, of the Pierson drug store, informs us Hist he is hav ing a great run on Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
