In sn interesting way.
Deacon Dolby bad been reading for
Ore minutes and had got aa far aa to
be told that a goose waa capable of

Ho didn't. He wanted to stick right
to that circular until he had devoured

when she got over her sobbing so’s abe

Samuel, I broke down and sobbed with

Aad she sobbed and snuffled and so*

a tattler, either. What she told me
in from a sense of duty. She said
It made tor heart ache to know that I

Tbe deacon pvepared himself for dee
worst, but gave no outward sign, and
presently Mrs. Dolby ceased snuffling
and continued:

The deacon didn’t lie. He didn’t

and continued the history of the goose.
"And owe mom thing, Samuel,'

“Only two weeks ago you were down-

uel. Don’t dtotarb yourself tonight
but come out In tbe morning to cut my

Mrs. Dolby picked up toe rope, went
into the kitchen and lighted a candle,
aad nest moment the dee coo heard the
outer door close. He did not get eat

simply reed that the bite of an old

He didn’t know, but be didn't any so.
"Because when I got out to the hen-
