ONE STORMY ItiSffi A storhir nigbt, indeed, high upon the lonely mountains, tbo rain cams down ill streatne, as if the tky were u great glove, aud not a ray of light found ita way through the black clouds. 1lie gixnt firs trees bent sud swayed in the fierc'bv.iud. and ient tleir wild, wailing voices down through gulch and oauyon to mingle with the roar of croek nml cataract, or full below tho rocka that crushed down the mountain Hides. Tho terriued cattle lowod and cried in their corrals, huddling together for warmth aud sympathy. In driers people dfevf near together, crowding around the hearth fires that blitzed iu n fitful, almost uncanny way. In a wiijside inn on the mountain road ft lltlb tbtupany sat thus gathered aboni nn immense fire-pince ihat glowed and (Limed tike ft bonfire, aud not con tent with cbet-Tii'B tbo great room, dent its btacou light Out at the windows to (lev fy the night nnd tho storm. There wus Mile M.ilone. tho landlord. nnd Kitty, his ft, funny wile; llttto Ma rin, the SpatiUh Qiil v. horn Mike and liitiy hnd 'Tared ("Jake, the stubloman, uud Ust. b. criiiat! tuOst imlicfilAUt, B.tt, tho French Cjimi'.i in woodcutter.

It was 111-imliired, to say the least, fur Bat was one of the kiiukut lollows iu the wi rld, "aud thu ways ofliiui,"iti Ki'tj .aiil, " wMt. one sthrjitue ofbuushlbe; but flirt-," she iiddeii, "Jikx is tlifil j uI ub that Le'cnti't lrtn l.itn (iiaellt, though I'd loontr k. eM.rie qniet in htr grave U'.r married to tho liken uv him, Av hhe'h in luve td thu Freiichmai.?

'Dffl T--r yees listen to the loike of thti?" exclaimed Mike, at sndden crashing Round. Kitty and Dat crossed themselves fer Veutly, but Jake, with unmoved, sblleh fac, sat and glowed with the fire. Suddenly Maria sprang up excitedly. "IU a voice," (.ho cried. "Indttde then, its the voice of tnauny wathers." laughed Kitly, though rather nerveonsly. "Its a human voice; it is calling for help." "By golly, it the debble then," said Bat. 'Dar's nobody else'll be on the road such a nigbt like dat, I'll bet he's call for Jake," he added roguishly, A deeper glower was Jake's only reply, bnt soon, lifting bis bend, be said: "She's- right, Maree is, there is some one callin'.H "Out wid yets mon. till the rescue," said Kitty, seizing Mike's hat and coat and thrusting them upon him. "Sure, ye 're speakin'," said Mike rue fully, preparing to leave the cheery hearth. Bat, aroused by the light lh Marin's flashiig eyes, sprang op with 'enthusi asm, for, low be It spoken, bis was not a grand, heroio tool. His brave deeds were mostly born of impulse and nonr ished by the approbation of others. Jake suddenly joined them, bnt before thoy reached the door it opened, and, fnll in the fife-light, appeared a till form and handsome, yellow bearded face, a striking picture, veithtbe datk night for a background. "By me sowll its the doctber. In (be name of the onld divll, who brings ye out iu the loike o' this?" . "1 don't go abroad in the devil's name Mike,'' laUghed the doctor, mdklog his way to the firs', hnd taking tho chair that Kitty had hastened to plaoe for him. "Ko mora ye don't, Doctber; lt'a Hir.

"Bestir yersllf, Mike, and bring mm lometbin' Lot to drink, for indade, doctber, ye're tbb color of a ghost." "I re had a pretty ionglt time to get here, and a few minutes ago I was likely to arrlvo at the bottom of the gulch, where my poor hoi so is now." Tho doctor's voloe trembled, and his eyes were wot with not unmanly tears, for, as the little compnny well knew, the horse was a pet and a beauty. "Ah, woe'a the night I" Trailed Klttv. "Te'lt niver find a better bssto nor a handsomer wan and ao proud be samed to bear ye, the poor.fftithful craturt!" its, wo to pulled through many a tongh place together.utid he never flinch ed or failed me. The almost human cry he gavo when ho went down' that horrl bio place will ring in my ears ns long as I live," raid the doctor, shuddering, "Bat who's going to show mo the way to Fraso'r? There's a trail over the mountain, isn't there?"' Begorry. there was one," said Mike, wij,h (jreat hesitation, '-hot a very dlvil of a way you'll foiud it now the trnas do bo crnckin'and falliu'and a-rowliu' down in jest an infernal manner. Its as much as yer lire is worth to get there." "And who's ailiu' over there, anywny?" asked Kitty. "I think its the baby. Some bile left word at my office that they feared one bf Fraser's Children was drine." "Darned if I'll risk my neck far one of Fraser's kids," said J.tko emphatically, going back to his scat by the fire "Ho great risk, thin," retorted Kitty. Thtm na Is born to be hanpnd '11 never be dhrowned." "An' sure," said Mike, glancing at Kit- ty, "I'm thinking wo'rettssafe outside as iu afther this. We're in for it, anyhow; but danged if I'm anxious to drag my old rheumaticky legs over anny trail to-night The Doctor looked at Bat Maria, too, had looked at him, and that look had fired bis soul with the courage of an old warrior, whatever the risk or the terror. 'Le ciel eu est le prlx," thought Bat. thrilling beneath that look. Well, a guess a know dat way pretty well, and if bttfay ting is happen I got the doctor, ain't I?" said flat, gayly brush ing back his brown curls, and drawing over thtm the veritable blue toque that he had worn in the backwoods of Canada. Then, in bis droll way, he took solemn leave of Kitty aiid jfike.imploring them, ir anything should prevent his return, to be good tu Jake. Orer Maria's little bfown hand he lingered long enough to aay, unheard by nil bnt her: "I come again to thee je t'alme," Aud in a language understood by nil the dark eyes answered: "I love thco." And in a language known and taueht by t!ie Father 01 fcvll snllen Jake replied to his laughing "Good-bye, my Jake- pray for me(" with a bjok Of hatted aud -J a Milieu "Go to hell 1" "Behind you, my dear," answered Bat. with a profound bow.

"And Salari 6nme also." thouoht th DVclor, observing the look. Maria, too, turned in time tb See the eSpresMon. It was just an Mike was tell ing them lo look out for the bridge oter Fraser's Creek- Then the door closed, .stid while the wind nnd thd tain beat fnrlfanaly against it, and Mike nftd Kitty speculated anli- ou-ly upon the chatices of tbeit safe ar rival at Fraser's, Maria studied Jake's face as he gazed iut n'ly in the fire, where from a pine-knot, the lurid jets of flame darted outand leaped wildly up the black vault, as if eager to join their kindred spirits in the storm. Suddenly Jake fifose: nnd muttering something in the way of good-uight, slouched ont of the rdom. Maflrfj too, went softly out.retlring to her own apart: ment.

Yet on they went ilong the narrow path, vith tbe overhanging rooks on their right, and on their left tbe featfttl preel pice; yet gayly onward, with cantious b?r. nbtil tbey reached the cottage, whose light shone like a star in the black night "By golly, we're got here, don't it f said Bat, drawing a long bTeatbi as they paused at the doon Is there anythingi 1 wonder, that stirs a physician's heart mote deeply than that look or mingled thankfulness and mute appeal that greets bint oh his first arrival where life and death ate straggling to gether?

After tbe Doctor and Bat had crossed Fraser's Creek, the stealthy figure that had followed them thus far, with some thing In his hand, stooped, cowering be. neath a fir tree, till tho gleam of their lantern was like a fire-fly in the distance then he approaohed the bridge, and, with eyes grown acouaiomeu to tbe darkness, examined the end that lay upon tbo bsnk. Bis conld see sufficiently well for his pur- pose, which was soon apparent, for, tak ing up his pick, he commeh'c'od, digging Into tbe bank and displacing the rocks, working with a fiendish energy. "Curse him," he said, between bis teeth, "I'll fix him so that no doctor can't save him." And so, with muttered curses, with the hoarse, bellowing torrent beneath, nnd the shrieking pines abovo, the work was done, and the timber left in suoh post tion (lmt one attempting to cross upon it would cause its fall. It was horrible to think of plunged into that hell of wa. ters and whirling debris, to bo dashed against the sharp rocks or carried swiftly down the dark ravine to a death as sure and cruel if not ns sudden , "There, you infernal Canuck," said the man, "you bet you've done yer last lore makln'."

Now go to work and make it safe again." 'ril be damned if I do," growled Jake, Tbe only answer was the click of a re volver that her firm little hand held steadily onough. She knew how to use it; Jake was well aware of that More than once he bad seen her bring down her game, with a skill that many an old hunter might well envy.

Never give the idea that you call because you bnpptJn to fee lh tho neigh borhood. 2. Never plead that you are In' abso lute need of tho money. 3, Never explain why you want tbe money further than by soma general phrase, as to meet outstanding bills.- The debtor is usually an expert in showing a man how he can get along without money. He. will worst yod in argument,' and if you lose your temper it is an excuse to min why ho should not pay. 4. Always be civlL however business like and importunate you may deem it! neoessary to be. 5. Never think you have done wrong becauseji debtor gets angry. His anger, under civil treatment, shows that he docs not intend to pay; This you might as well know first as last. C Show quite as firm a resolution fo gel (be money On your tenth call as on any previous one, or else it would have been better if you had not made it 7. Never leave a debtor without his settlug a time when ho thinks ho can pay, and never fail to be on haud at the. time seti 8 Ai between iobrself and ah em ployee, let the most business-like of tho two make the dun. 9. Suggest installments. Shame tbe debtor into making an arrangement (o pay something every week or every month. If not $10. then $5, or S3, or $1, It will convince bim that you have set to work in earnest to get the money; 10. If a debtor gets angry, or has worn our patience,- a' threat to attabb blS salary may be effective, nt so much that ho is likely to. fear you will get tbe money that way, as that he will be aUxiods that the aff.tr shall not Come to the know!

A similar efleot may be produced by saying you iuiend to place the bill in the hands of a lawyer, particularly if you mentiou a lawyer whom he hates or who has a reputation for harressiDg debtors.
