The ok? men's grim face was full of amazement when. bis son finished speaking. It wae not often that the boy. talked out, not often, indeed, that he exchanged an avoidable word with his fatber. The latter was gauet, leathern-skinned, hook-nosed, a tuft of yellowish-gray whiskers on bis chin, and acrafty sparkle in bis barrow eyes. “So.” he said, in a voice of irrita- tion, ‘‘you’re a-goin’ to git married: [ notice yedidn’t ask ef ye kin.” The young man, his brown, clean- shaven, straigght-featured fate set with reserve and resolution, looked at the elder. “Tam of age—end I have talked it over with mother.” ‘‘Yer mother!” The contempt in the tone stung him who heard. ‘“Yes,” very quietly. anything to say?” “Not ‘less l give you a bit of ad- vice.” the old man replied, with a -buckle. ‘‘See here, now. Don’t let her git enny nonsense in her head in the beginnin’. Squelch it then an’ thar, an’ yell have peace iu yer life, 4n’ prosper like I've done. It’s Alty Greaves ye’re wantin’—a girl that has been to boardin' school and hes got a pianny, an’ ben set up by her folks, ez it were. Ye'll have to git the whip hand of ber at first—that’s what I done with yer mother.” There was asilence in the room. It was a disagreeable silence, and a decidedly unpleasant room. The “best room,” to be sure, but not on that account less—perhaps more— repellant and ugly. Looking through be small window on the north one’s raze collided with a huge red barn, through that on the east one looked on abarren tractof sun-baked earth. ““Yer mother bed lots of queer no- sions when she come here,” con- tinued the old man. “Her folks were well off. She'd ben brought up in a_ city an’ eddicated. One thing, she’d a hankerino’ fer pritty clothes.

Her ma died. ~ Yer mother didn’t git over that fer a long spell—seems sometimes hike she pever got over it plum, ye know. But-she ain’t made much fuss. She knews a man’s got to run his own house an’ his own folks. Once she got an idee she wanted a carpet in the best room, but I told her ez how oitcloth ‘ud wash. She'd not have had the ala- bastine ef | badn’t vowed I thought it kinder cheerful. Them pictures, too! I made her swalicr the fac’ they was good enough fer me! That settled it. One thing she did git to have her way in—that was eddicatin’” you. J didn’t hold out agin that after we'd had more’n a couple 0’ talks. Eddicatin’, I say, don’t hurt a man, but a woman ain't got no use fer it. All her’d wever done yer nother no good: "Twas only after she quit talkin’ of readin’ and goin’ back east some time an’ havin’ a flower garding an’ sech fool taik ez that, I begun to feel right comfort- able. You want to break in Alty well atthe first. Wegitalongright pleasant now—don’t we, mother?” A woman who had been beautiful, a woman bent and prematurely aged, a woman with a twitchiny, nervous face, sunken, glittering eyes, and tremulous, toil-worn hands, rose stify from her chair by the window—the window that looked out owthe stretch of arideartbh. She laughed a bitter, fheeting laugh. “I haven't gone mad,” she said, “though I feared I would. J haven't ted—though IhopedI might. Yes, I've been broken in. I hope you're proud of it. As for my son’s wife—” The boy met her glance flashingly. ‘‘Never fear, motber!” that look ‘aid. She left the’ room. Her hus- ‘A eazed uneasily after her. **‘Mother,” he remarked, ‘‘seems @ bit upset. But she ain't got aothin’ to complain on. She's allus bad shelter an’ enougb to eat.” ‘Your cattle have had that.” *‘See here! You be goin’ to take my advice about Alty, ain’t you? You be goin’ to treat her foolish no- tions like I done mother’s?” The young man clenched his bands hard. Words of fierce indignation sprang to his lips, but trembled there unattered. He turned ab- ruptly and went out. He found his wmother in the kitchen. She looked ap at him timidly. He bent and kissed her with passionate reverence. Her answering smile was almost one ot happiness.—Chicawo Tribune. «. Beh ee Se es SE ea eee die Ee ae x LOCAL DIRECTORY. COUNTY OFFICERS. Superior Couit Clerk, E. A. Moye. sheriff, R. W- King.

An assisted immigrant is making a lot of trouble in Louisiana. It is a plant, a water-hyacinth, which a man from New Orleans saw and ad- mired about three years ago while on a visit to Colombia. He brought some bulbs of it home with him and and grew them in tubs in his front yard. In about two years patches of the flower appeared in the Bayou St. John, which conuects New Or- leans with Lake Pontchartrain. In another year the bayou was full of it, sothat navigation was impeded. Now all the canals near New Orleans are overrun and covered up with this invading flower; great masses of it are floating in the lake; rivers cunning into the lake are choked with it, and it has traveled a hun- dred*miles to the westward of New Orleans. It grows enormously, spreads iike rabbits in Australia, chokes all the bayous and streams it gets into, and is a tremendous nui- sance, the limitations of which are vot in sight. In Colombia it is a barmless, flowering plant that grows in tubs, but in Louisiana the condi- tions suit it, and have developed it into the most flourishing and obsti- nate pest the state has known since she lost the Louisiana lottery.— Harper’s Weekly. MOVING A BIG TREE. A Giant ‘Cherry [faken Up Moved to Another Place. Just before midnight one night in the middle of February last, a cher- ry tree, with earth attached, weigh- ing twelve and tiree-quarter tons, began the passage from the Knowles estate at Pawtucket and Fletcher streets to the grounds of ex-Mayor Field’s residencein Middlesex street. The tree was on a sled and the way it got off there is an interesting story. During the cold snap a trench was dug around the tree. It and propped up so that it could not fall, and then the earth was dug from) under the roots until the. tree stood free, except that a platform of earth two feet deep and twelve feet in diameter clung to it. The roots and the frost held the ground in- tact. Then the tree was tipped over gently with jacks to measure its length on the ground, so that the twelve-foot circle of horizoatal earth was made perpendicular. More jack- screws were used to raise the circle of frozen earth, so that the sled was slipped under it, and then it was lowered, and the horses pulled the combination out of the orchard. Wooden shears braced the reeling tree ou the sled. All this was done a couple of weeks ago. The earth cracked during the work, and the cracks were plastered with mud and Sl allowed to freeze tight. — Lowell * : i ESTABLISHED 1875. SV? Schultz!
