Then a new era dawned upon the reâ€" cluse. \The sweet, felear music of a fresh young voice singing about the house as a gir! put her willing hands to the work of cleaning and regulatingâ€" the shrill notes of Davie‘s whistle as he chopped wood ur drew water from the oldâ€"fashioned well whose tall sweep rose above it like a gigantic arm susâ€" pending in air its timeâ€"honored "mossâ€" grown bucket"â€"all sounded strangely. out of keeping with the halfalive air. ‘Tut, tut, boy; who said that I did not waut you. Don‘t be so hasty. My living is very plain, but such as it is, Hulda‘s boy and girl are free to have." So it was settled. Jonas Little had the reputation of being rich, although he denied himself all but the barest necessarics of life. He had come to the place ten years beâ€" fore, and had bought the cottage with its few surrounding acres, and had setâ€" tled down there to pass the rest of his days. He had formed no acquaintance and had,no debts. So that people realâ€" ly knew nothing about him, except that on his oscasiona! visits to the village to procure provisions he paid cash for his purchases. He had since passed a loneâ€" ly and uneventful life, until, as suddenâ€" ly as though they had dropped from the sky, Dorothy and Davie appeared on his threshold asking for shelter and proâ€" tection. "We were very well off when father died and then mother took sick and folâ€" lowed him, and while we were at the funeral our nice little house caught fire and burned down, with all that was in it. That is bow we came to be poor," ©And if you don‘t want us, uncle," put in Davie, fired into sudden passion by the suppressed emotion in Dorothy‘s voice, "we won‘t stay." ©Yes, that we will," responded Davie turning bis blue eyes from the landâ€" scape they had been studying, and fixâ€" ing them wistfully upon his relative‘s *wizened face. There was a tremble in Dorothy‘s voice as she said: You must have been poorly off, I reckon, was the reply, and I &m surâ€" prised at it. I thought when Robert Lane married my stepâ€"sister, Hulda, that he‘d have taken better care of her and ber children than to leave them like this." T say children, although the girl was fourteea and the boy twelve. But they were small for their age, and alâ€" though bright and intelligent looking had ‘the appearance of being even younger than they really were. Dorothy answered slyly. "Thank you; Uncle Jonas; we‘ll be glad of even a poorer shelter than that but," pointing to the cowâ€"shed which occupied a portion of the yard upon which Jonas Little‘s cottage stood. "Won‘t we Da zie ?" He was the stepâ€"uncle of the childâ€" ren who stood before him, and to whom his words were addressed. The speaker was a tall, spare man, with keen black eyes twinkling out beâ€" neath a pair of bushy black brows. His clothes were shabby in the extreme, but they bad evidently been carefully brushed before putting on, and had once been a fashionable make and texture, although long past those palmy days. BR MARY E. MOFFAT. "©You can come and live with me and welcome,fif you can put up with the same fare that I do. head, s ua. n And not a single word in answer said, What had he done !

But the drinkseller turned with drooping poud I saw another when the night drew nigh, And turned each daily toiler from his task !

I saw a miller when the day was gone. And all the sunlight from the hills had fied, And tender shadows had crept across the lawn, 1 saw the dusty miller, and T said : I saw the blacksmith in his smithy door, When the day had vanished and the west grew red, And all the weary noise and strife were o‘er; I saw the kindly blacksmith and I said : "What have you done toâ€"day ? Oh blacksmith say ? ""Oh, T have made two ploughshares all com:â€" And the mild stars came forward one by «one ; I saw the sturdy farmer and I said : «"What have you done toâ€"day ? O farmer, say ?"

Isaw a farmer when the day was done ; The setting sun had sought its crimson WHAT nAVE YOU DONE To piÂ¥y? the dusty miller, and T said DAVIE‘S DOCTOR. OETRY, â€"Exchange. Thus ran her thought. But when she saw his quiet yet resolute way with ‘"Surely such aninexperienced person could do no good !" A half hour of suspense passed; then the doctor came. Dorothy looked up, expecting to see the venerable old pracâ€" titioner who bad tended her uncle through & short illness he had been atâ€" tacked by shortly after she came to live with him; but to her surprise and consternation a younger man had come to his place Dorothy‘s tender arms were soon about, and she helped him into the house. She was as white and trembâ€" ling as a girl could be, but she did not faint. Getting Davie upon the bed she ran to the door to see if any one was in sight, and seeing a child, begged that she would run for the village doeâ€" tor and ask him to come to the cottage as quickly as possible. Then she went to Davie and tried to coax him to let her bathe his eye; but he was unmanâ€" agable from pain and forbade her to even to touch it. In spite of himself the boy grew sudâ€" denly lightâ€"hearted, and ran off with the merry whistle sounding shrilly from his lips. So magical is the charm of a cheerful, bappy spirit. _ He. worked away at the tough old knots for some time. Then, when quite a pile‘of wood lay before him, be raised the axe for a master stroke to celebrate the end of his labors, when suddenly a piece of wood flew up against his eye, and with a loud cry of pain, he threw himself down and rolled upon the ground in his agony. "Run along, Davie, and cut some wood, and I‘ll soon have supper ready. the biggest fire that I could make, too, shall make the old stove do its share toward making us comfortable." Eiven as she looked at Davie on this forlorn of all mornings, when everyâ€" thing seemed nearing its end (I speak of course of creature comtorts), she could summon a smile to meet his troubled look, _| _ If Jonas had been really worth proâ€" perty, no one knew anything about it; ,| and the idea of such a thing being the ,|case had never entered the mind of either of the children, He had died suddenly, without even a parting word or look to any one. Not coming to , | breakfast at his usual hour, Dorothy, ‘| after a time became uncasy about him, and after knocking in vain at the door ‘| of his room, had mustered courage to enter, even at the risk of being called an intruder. In another moment her cries had summoned Davie to the spot,. j and together they tried to resuscitate the. already lifeless form. He had died as‘ he had chosen to liveâ€"alone. But he. was mourned by the grateful orplmns‘ whom he had befriended at the eleventh hour, and so he received, even at that late period of time, the same reward that is generally bestowed only upon one who bears the burden and the heat of the dayâ€"unselfish love. For that divinest gift of heaven to man is not measured by years; it springs into the heart at a vound, and glovifies it with its soul satisfying presence. Thank God for Human Love! At last a crisis came. There was barely enough meal in the barrel for the supper. Mooly had gone dry; the feathered purveyors were huddled disâ€"| consolately in their tumbleâ€"down shelter trying to keep themselves from freezing and most emphatically on a strike for better wages, or rather food, and the’ woodpile was on its last legsâ€"I mean { logs, and crooked ones at that. It was a doleful enough prospect! ‘ During the twelvemonth which had} elapsed since Dorothy had come to Uncle Jonas‘s door, a striking change’ had taken place in her. She had shot| up tall and straight. with a ]issomeli grace about every movement one would ; hardly have looked for in the sa]low,’ stunted looking child. The flush of| health glowed upon her cheeks, and her i ] wide, brown eyes seemed to catch a}. cherry sparkle from every passing sunâ€" " beam. [ But in upon this new state of comâ€" fort came a dread intruder, and poor Dorothy and Davie were again left without & protector. Death laid his icy fingers upon the heart of him who had befriended them, and it ceased to beat. _ Being, as they thought, the only surviving relatives of Jonas Little, the house without question belonged to them. _ But it could not feed them. Winter bad again come, and as the little money which had been found within the well worn pocketâ€"book of the deceased had been expended in givâ€" ing him a decent burial, what was to keep the wolf from the door when the stock of provisions should run short? Davie, too, was as handy in the garâ€" den as "Dot"â€"as he called his sisterâ€" was in the house. As the spring beâ€" came more advance from the bleak barâ€" renness of its wintry@sleep be made a few beds for vegetables, and soon had the satisfaction of adding daily a head of crisp lettuce and some bunches of scarlet radishes to Dorothy‘s warm corn bread and golden brown Indian pudâ€" dingâ€"the usual dinner. He had spoken the truth about the plainness of bis fare. _ But Dorothy was a born manager, and with the aid of the milk from the one cow, and the eggs from their few hens, she contrived many a palatable dish for the table out of the Indian meal which was the staple of most of the food. which had previously pervaded all the accessories of the scene. "I only did it to try you, for I love you little Dorothy, and I am the cousâ€" in you bhave so nobly determined to find and restore to his rights. . Will you marry me and share all with me?" _ Tears had succeeded, the sudden storm, and almost before Dorothy, knew what had taken place, she found berself clapsed in strong but tender arms, and a deep voice was whispering in her ear: "I bave always heard that a generâ€" ous spirit speaks well for those who are dead and gone, and I didn‘t think it of youâ€"youâ€"seemed soâ€"so kind. "Then they will very soon, for T shall put notices in all the papers so as to find him," said Dorothy. Davie looked thoughtful, and the doctor said, studying Dorothy‘s face keenly: "You seem to care more for the cousâ€" in, than for your uncle‘s money. Think of it! if it were not for that document, you would become possessor of the proâ€" perty, for probably no one knows anyâ€" thing about the son." ©Yes, but then think of it! _ We have a real fleshâ€"andâ€"blood cousin! Isn‘t it nice. â€"*‘Oh, Davie!" she exclaimed, holding the parchment toward him. _ "Uncle Jonas bas a son, and here is his will! and he was awful rich! â€" It tells all about it here." As Dorothy read over the list of the deadman‘s hoard, her eyes widened with amazement. _ He was very rich, and yet had lived upon the meagerest of fare, and had starved his heart as well as his body, all through the long years which had passed since he had entered upon his recluse life. ,‘And we are poor again, then," said Davie, in an injured tone. Some lingering tenderness toward the boy to whom he had always denied a father‘s protection must have still lurked in the miser‘s heart, for he bad made a formal will bequeathing him all his property. And at last something happened very strange and wonderful. Dorothy, incontinuing herrummaging in the attic brought to light a letter and a will. To to her surprise, she found that her uncle had deserted his wife and a baby boy years before, on account (as a‘clause in the letter said) "of incompatibility of temper, and of extravagance on my wife‘s part." And Dorothy listened, glad at heart that the handsome young stranger was still to come to the cottage; never thinking, silly maiden, that a medical practictioner cannot doctor a patient forever, and that even the most attenâ€" tive and careful of the fraternity must stop coming some day. And Dorothy was so glad that she Long after Davie‘s eye had ceased to trouble bim, his faithfal physician conâ€" tinued his visits, explaining to Dorothy that as the eye was such a remarkably tender portion of the machinery of the human frame, it must be most carefully guarded from any chance of a possible relapse. Dorothy had not been: unmoved by that wondering, admiring gaze, and her color rose as she answered until her cheeks looked like two damask roses. Dorothy, too, looked so different from the troubled maiden of the day before that when the young doctor came in, he stood and looked at her for a moment, until suddenly remembering his "manâ€" ners" as children‘s nurses admonish their charges, he bowed politely, and asked after Davie. It was a joyful discovery and almost made Davie forget his pain. She was gone before he had time to ask any questions, but he made up for his omission on her return, and learnâ€" ed that some gold pieces had been hidâ€" den under the tattered sheets. ‘ Davie‘s eye was soon dressed skillâ€" fully and comfortably and then the !young pbysician went away, promising to come again next day. It was not a wound which put his eye in danger, but it was painful, and it was so far inâ€" to the night before sleep visited either Davie‘s or Dorothy‘s eyes. _ Once aâ€" sleep, he did not awaken until far into the morning; then to his great amazeâ€" ment. Dorothy came to his bedside, wearing her bonnet and cloak, and with a brilliantly bappy face told him that she had found a treasureâ€"trove, and that she was going to leave him alone while she went to the village and bought some provisions. 1 The first chest was filled with books, as was also the second; but the third proved to hold some worn linen sheets, which were just what she needed. As she caught them up, a glimpse of someâ€" thing glittering caught hereye, but not stopping at the time to investigate, she hurried down stairs again with the linâ€" en. Several old chests cumbered the dark unfinished attic, and in one of these unpromising looking receptacles she commenced her bunt, starting at every rustle lest a rat should sally out of some hole and freighten her, for Doroâ€" thy had a feminine weakness even about those unoffending fourâ€"footed bits of velvety fur commonly called mice, and would never have invaded the mysterâ€" ies of that old lumberâ€"room had it not been for the sake of poor Davie‘s sufâ€" ering. Davie, and that the lad was as wax in his hands, though he had been immovâ€" able to her own entreaties, she felt reâ€" lieved, and started off at his request in search for some linen cloths with which to bandage the wounded eye. Watrloo Rebecca Wilkinson,of Brownsvalley, Ind says: "I had been in a distressed condition for three years from Nervousness, Weakness of the Stomach, Dyspepsia and Indigestion until my health was gone. _ Ihad been docâ€" toring constantly with no relief. _ I bought one bottle of South American Nervine, which done me more good than any $50 worth of doctoring I ever did in my life. 1 would advise every weakly person to use this valuable aud lovely remrdy. _ A trial bottle will convince you _ Warranted by M. Devitt, Druggist, Waterloo, ‘ In chronic nervous troubles such as Chorâ€" ea, neuralgia, ard asthma, the prompb efficiency of these pills is so remarkâ€" able as to be considered marvellous. They afford imely relief and permanent cure in t housands of cases. The experiences of Calcutta, as obâ€" served by Dr. W. J. Simpson, the health officer of that city, go to show that those persons who have an abunâ€" dant and puro water supplyâ€"namely, the Europeans and better class of naâ€" tivesâ€"escape cholera epidemics except in isolated instances which can generâ€" ally be accounted for; while the natives who necessarily depend on tank water suffer severely when the tank becomes polluted by the excreta of a cholera parties. It must be remembered that the natives bathe and wash their utenâ€" sils and clothes in the tank because it is the only available place for doing so and they use the water of the tank, contaminated as it is, in addition by soakage and sewage, for cooking and drinking, because it is the ouly availâ€" able water supply for domestic purposâ€" es. â€" Dr. Simpson raises a very earnest cry against the scarcity of pure water. The first requisite for Howrah and the suburbs of Calcutta is a liberal water supply, while Calcutta itself needs an increased supply.â€"Ernest Hart, Chairâ€" man of the National Health Society of England, in North American Review. ‘ India is generally referred to as the ‘home of cholera,‘ the disease being esâ€" tablished endemically throughout a wide area. This, however, is not, as most Indian authorities once believed and many would even now have us beâ€" lieve, due to any mysterious or unpreâ€" ventible causes, but in virtue of condiâ€" tions which may all of them be removâ€" ed. In India, as elsewhere, water has been the chief nurse and disseminator of cholera, and I believe that if every town and village in India were providâ€" ed with pure ard properly protected water, the so-cfiled ‘endemic area‘ would soon become indefinite. Dr. M. C. Furnell, who has bad great experâ€" ience as surgeonâ€"general of Madras, is firmly of opinion that the general methâ€" od of the propagation of cholera in Inâ€" dia is by the means of specifically polâ€" luted water, and he bas had no difficulâ€" ty in finding masses of facts in support of his opinions. To charge from fifty cents to one | dollar for a bon tonniere which repreâ€" sented only the cost of picking the | flowers out of the fields, is robbery pure | and simple, writes Edward W. Bok in the September Ladies‘ Home Journal, On two different occasions that I disâ€" | tinctly remember where I was asked fifty cents for not five cents actual worth of flowers, I was laughingly told by the young lady to whom I tendered a bank note that, "We never give change at this fair, and gentlemen, like yourself, won‘t insist upon it, we know." It was enough that I was overcharged, but I must be twice robbed, and this, in each instance, in a church and in the name of charity ! Is it any wonder, I ask, that it so difficult to induce men to attend bazaars and fairs? Shey know what is in store for them if they attend._ They know that the innocent "25 cents admission" represents an exit costing all the way from $10 to $25, in proportion to their good nature, I am calling this pracâ€" tice by its proper name, because I think it is time that the great and noble works done for honest charity in this country should not be asked to suffer, as many of them are undoubtâ€" edly suffering toâ€"day, from this and other forms of abuse practised in the name of charity. It is in no respect creditable to a charitable or religious institution that it allows its steeple or roof to rise above the ground, or widen its works and inâ€" fluence by the means and metbods commonly practised at bazaars or fairs. Nor can I see how any selfâ€"respecting woman can wilfully place a price upon an article that she knows in her heart represents two or three times its honest value. And yet Christian women do these things, as both you and L know â€"women in all other respects upright in every motive. They do it because | they believe the cause in which it is done excuses the action, forgetting the ] fact that charity, of all things, was never intended to be a tool for dishonâ€" | est practices. Nothing will bring fairs more {quickly into disrepute, among ] men particularly, as the extortions allowed to be practised at themâ€" The 1 managers who résent lottery and gamâ€" bling schemes at fairs quietly blink at the practice of extortionate prices, as if the latter represented a less graver sin. a sobbed all the harder. _ Rut she let Roâ€" landâ€"her loverâ€"cousinâ€"kiss away her tears; and after a time, a happier trio were never gathered together under roof than Dorothy, Davie, and "Davie‘s Doctor."
