Haatily pushing a heavy tabla against it, Mr. Yarrow returned to hia room; dressed, and calling two other male members of the houaebold, they all marched to the atoreroom well armed, and without much trouble, aoon overpowered the thief, who proved to be an Indian, and who mumbled some thing that Bounded like broken Engliah. They carried him out to the smoke house, which was built of stone, and bad a heavy Iron door. The three men Watched nearby the rest of the night. At breakfast on this Christmas morn ing, Father Yarrow told th? story of the previous night, and Nannie had her full share of caresses and praise from aunt ies, uncles and cousins alike. Then there was a clamor from the youngsters to “see the prisoner;’’ so after breakfast they all went forth to the tem porary jail, Dame Yarrow among the others. The great doors were pushed back, and lying on the floor was the Indian, asleep. But was It an Indian? Instead of the straight black hair, his was brown •nd curly. Dame Yarrow gave one look, then turned to her husband, with extended hands, and the cry, ‘Oh, John, It is he!” fell fainting into his arms. The Jad was awakened and taken to the house. He spoke English brokenly, but could give no account of his former life, before he became one of a tribe of half-friendly Indians. He explained his being in the store room by telling his hearers that his tribe of Indians that was encamped sev eral miles above, on the river bank, had been living on what they could steal from the whites. He had ben sent out on this night, and seeing a window open in the back of the Yarrow homestead he determined to craw) in and view the premises. Mrs. Yarrow knelt before him and gazing searchingly into his eyes, which were blue, asked over and over. “Don’t you know me, Harry, darling? I am your mother.” But he could not be made to understand. H? begged leave to return to the tribe, saying he would come back again with information. This the men were inclined to believe a trick to get away, but when Mrs. Yar row pleaded for him they let him go. All idea of church-going was aban doned, for the first time on Christmas Day in tha life of any member in that household, and dinner awaited at the bidding of madame until the return of thfe youth. He was seen coming up the walk at 3 o’clock In the afternoon, and with him was an old Indian. The following tale they all listened to with great Interest: “In the great Indian fight of twelve years before, the little captured boy was taken to the Indian encampment, and given to the care of a young squaw, the favorite wife of the chief of the tribe. “One day she overheard the chiefs j talking about the white man’s child. They said he had brought misfortune to the Indians, as they had lost several battles since he had been with them, so they had decided that the innocent child should die. “The squaw had learned to love the little one. That night she arose, and taking him In her strong Arms she car-1 ried him away to another tribe of In dians« who were bitter enemies of her own, and, in order to save the boy’s life, she told the chief of a deep-laid scheme that her tribe had planned for attacking them. “She asked them Io take the child and keep him, till perhaps, some day he would be restored to his “white tribe.’ ” The old Indian was well rewarded with a load of wheat and corn to carry home on a hand sled. Then the long-lost Harry Yarrow was made to understand that this was his home, and that he was to remain there. The Christmas dinner did not suffer that night for want of attention, but before they partook of it, Farmer Y’ar- row, with his arm about his son, thank ed God for this greatest of all His bless ings.—Home Monthly. HIS CHRISTMAS SERMON. An Aged Wayfarer Who Taught a Curate Contentment. An Engliah clergyman declares that the best Christmas sermon he ever heard W’as preached by a woman—and in three words I “In my little parish, under the sweep of the Sussex downs,” he says, “I was walking swiftly home one night buffet ed about by the gray clouds of driving rain that the fierce sou’wester swept landward from the sea when a poor, helpless, aged woman asked me for a trifle for a night’s lodging. “Curates are supposed always to be poor. It was Christmas time, and I had just parted with my last sixpence at a lonely hamlet where work was scarce. Still I could not leave my stranger in the street, so I asked her to come with me to my lodgings. “She shambled along through the mud with her streaming clothes and clouted boots, and we entered my little room. My thoughtful landlady had made my table ready. A plate of hot toast was standing in the fender; the kettle sang vociferously, as if Impatient to be used; in front of the fire stood my slippers and an easy chair. “To my surprise, my poor, worn, hag gard companion raised her dripping hands and burst Into tears with the words. ‘Oh. what luxury!’ “That was the best Christmas ser mon I ever heard, ami the only one I hare never forgotten.”—Youth's Com panion. he L axative OF K nown Q uality There are two classes of remedies: those of known qual ity and which are permanently beneficial in effect, acting gently, in harmony with nature, when natureneeds assist ance ; and another class, composed of preparations of unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting tempo rarily, but injuriously, as a result of forcing the natural functions unnecessarily. One of the most exceptional of 1 the remediesof known quality and excellence is the ever pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California F Fig Syrup Co., which represents the active principles of plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup, ; in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to con- * tribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor, it is the remedy- of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanse the system | < gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming consti- I pation and the many ills resultingtherefrom. Its active princi- 1 pies and quality are known to physicians generally, and the remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as with the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know of their own personal knowledge and from actual experience S that it is a most excellent laxative remedy. We donotclaimthat f it will cure all manner of ills,but recommend it for what it really represents, a laxative remedy of known quality and excellence, containing nothing of an objectionable or injurious character. There are two classes of purchasers: those who are informed as to the quality of what they buy and the reasonsfor the excellence *■' of articles of exceptional merit, and who do not lack courage to go i elsewhere when a dealer offers an imitation of any well known V article; but, unfortunately, there are some people who do not know, and who allow themselves to be imposed upon. They cannot expect T its beneficial effects if they do not get the genuine remedy. To the credit of the druggists of the United States be it said that nearly all of them value their reputation for professional , integrity and the good will of their customers too highly to offer \ imitations of the Genuine—Syrup of Figs manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., and in order to buy the genuine article and to get its beneficial effects, one has only to note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—plainly printedon the front of every package.
