My hotine, nllinVcd n llttlo dhtanca from n my town, wai built of stone, with a veranda overgrown with croep ern nil around It, such ai noon in most Anglo-Indian reildenco, and surrountl- od ly n Htnill irardim in which nil tho iMMtiliu of a troiiical climate ilotirinh ed. During lhli afternoon I wan resting myfclf In an eaiy bwnboo chair alonii in my room the blindi were drawn down to keep It ai cool ai poiiiblo, hut novcrtheiletn tho heat was intense, male, ing mo feel restless and irritable. Novel after novol I opened, and after reading a fow page llun tho book aside f and having tried for a few rmnulcs to sleep, I got up and went to ono of tho windows Drawing up tho blind quietly, I daw on tho vorarda my litllo daughter Ulvliz. She wai adored by my wifo and my self, being our only child, and I wai nbout to tap thu glau in ordor to attract her attention, when I noticed that she wai carrying a bowl of what appeared to bo bread and milk, and Hceirifd to bo looking for Homo ono. At tho Hamo tlmo I haw, to my horror, a huge Miiako of tho moit venomous kind cobra creeping from thoxidoof tho Iioiibo along tho veranda toward her. Hlio went Hlowly to moot it. I know that it would now bo im poniblo for mo to go out or to mako tho slightest sound without attracting tho snake's attontion, and then I shud dered, for when onco it wan alarmed tho connequoncei might bo fearful, no 1 had to watch what wai going to happen in a cold presmrntion of foar for tho Hafety ot my child. Tho cobra, on reaching tho child, roared its loathiomo head in tho air until level with tho bowl, moanwhilo darling its tonguo backward and for ward and casting fiorco glancoH around to see if danger wan near, while it de voured tho broad and milk. Oladiz Htroked its hoad gently and called tho roptilo "lier pot," "her pretty snake." I watchod tho food gradually din appear, and could have cried for relief when I nnw the snake had finished itH meal, which I inwardly vowed should bo lU last. It then crept Hlowly to ward a holo in tho sido of thu Iiouho, to which it disappeared. I rushed from tho room, nnd, moot ing Gladiz coining into tho hall, picked her up in my arms and kissed her frantically, exclaimed: "Oh, Gladiz, Oladiz, tho Hiiako 1" Tlio child bogan to ory, knowing thon I had neon Tier with her pet. Nor nurso, coming up to hoo what was tho matter, I gavo Gladiz into hor ohnrgo, nnd went to find my wife, to whom I told all that had oc curred. My wifo learned from Gladiz that hIio had licon aooiiHtoiniid to feed tho Hnako twice a day after breakfast anil during tho afternoon for thu last three mouth, and often, If hIio thought h)io wai being watched, sho would leave tho bowl on tho veranda, fetching it away at nnothcr time-. Wo, my wifo and myaolf, arranged that tho bowl should po put in Its placo i.h usual to-morrow morning, nnd that I hIioiiIiI nhoot the nnnke from tho win dow of my room while it wnH eating. Wo also thought it boHt that Gladiz Hhould not bo told that her pot wait go ing to ho killed. llroakfatt wan rath or hurried next morning for 1 wan anxious to gel thin dnngerotiH net killed ni hooii as possi ble. Tho bowl was temptingly put iu itH tilaco. an directed by Gladiz, and I took up my portion with n jjun at thu window of my room, completely hid ded from tho outHiilo by tho Vonetian blind. Tho child was taken bv my wifo to tho nursory, as arranged bo- twocn ui the evening before. All wnH ready now, tho Hiinko alone was want iug. It did not keep mo long waiting. boon I h;iw Uh head appear out of tho nolo. 1 Himko looked around with itH glittering eyi's, nnd Booing tho bowl era leu out on to tlio veranda and mado its way toward it.

I began o pull up the blind with the intention of going out and giving tho cobra tho death blow, when I heard a fearful scream and a moment after saw Gladiz run past tho window her golden hair loose, her dress torn to ward tho wounded snake. Heforo I could prevent her she had thrown herself on her knees before it, nnd lifting its head in her hands pressed it. nuainst her check, weepinz bitterly while sho did so ; instantly the cobra buried its poisoned fangs into her deli cate flesh. Sho screamed and unclasp ed her hands from around the snako. A cry escaped my lips as I saw what hnnrinried. and takinir Gladiz in ray arms, carried her indoors. All that mprfinal skill could do to savo our child was done, but of no avail. In less than two hours sho was dead. Years havo passed ainco then, but I never can forget tho ovents ot mat iearnu uujr, Damon and FytnJas. A ROI1IIII) KETIIOIT (lllOCF.B WHO TAKES NO STOCK IN IIOMANTIO TAI.F.8.

Itoycoltiug, dilTering in somo par ticulars irom the way In which it is dono in tho land where the Knirlish term originated, has been practiced for n'loi in Inilit. nays a Hindoo writer in tho i Jamti Oazette: Thcro is great difference between Irish and Hindoo boycotting. Tho lormcr is based mainly on political, scml-politlcal or fiscal reasons; whereas tho latter is practiced on purely social or religions grounds. Then tho Irish is sevorer than tho Hindoo method in this senso that no tradesman will sell anything to tho boycotted man, who is mora or less like a prisoner in his own house; whorcai a boycotted Hindoo can buy anything anywhere or go to any placo he likes, only people will not iro to his house or aisociato with htm or his family in any way. On tho other hand, tho Hindoo is sovercr than tho Irish boycotting in that tho latter may bo only temporary, and rises at the caprice of the boycot tern whereas tho former is ofton per manent, or can bo dono away with only by going through certain expia tory rites or costly ceremonies, which como hard, ovon on tho richer olasscs. A man may bo hoyoottod in Iroland for no fault of his own, but in India boycotting follows upon a breach of observance of somo time-honorod cus tom, or by any public offenso against traditional notions of propriety. In dian boycotting is allied to outcastlng, bat is quite distinct from it and not half so scvoro. A man may loso his casto only by breaking onq of iu well definol rules, which are quite different from mcro customs for observances. An outcast man is nccossarily boycot ted; but a boycotted man koeps his casto nil right as long oh ho docs not act against its rules. Again, a man may bo outcast, but not his family for that reason; yet his relations will bo boycotted if thoy associate with him. Let mo now cito some examples: Somo years ago a loarned I'undit gavo his daughter in marriago when hIio was a fow years older than tho pronoribod marriageable age among tho Hindoos; and tho olTcnso was rendered doubly heinous by tho pornetrator being a Brahmin of high ordor. Ho was strict ly boycotted accordingly;and,I beliovo, notwithstanding his great reputation as a scholar and a benevolent porson, and in spito of his endeavors to propitiate tho Brahmins in many ways, no is still avoided by orthodox Hindoos. A wholo family has bcon boycotted for rocoivlng nnd associating with ono of its members who returned from Eng land and had lost his casto through eating with Englishmen. Ono gentle man has boon boycotted forover for gotting his widowed daughter married. If anybody's son or daughter-in-law associates with non-Hindoos publloly tho offending Individual is outcastcd and tho wholo family is boycotted. If a son does not mourn for his deceased fnlhor in tlio prescribed manner ho is boycotted. In Homo parts of India men aro boycottod for wearing trous era of European fashion or, indood, any dress that was not worn by thoir ancestors of a thousand yearn ago. A well known historical oxamplo of Hin doo boycotting is that of the Joyporo royal family, which was boycotted for hundreds of years by tho other Itai pool royal families for being tho first Hindoo family of princely rank who offored a daughter in marriago to n inogul Etnporor. In Itnjputnnn wholo tribos nro often boycotted if Homebody does not properly observe tho tradition al customs or forms n connection with a lower casto or with non-HindooH. lint nowadays boyoottlng can bo raised in India by a judicious usu of tho almighty gold.

Gold leaf is manufactured In about twenty shops in New "York and its subutb', says the Now York livening Sun. It is estimated that 20,800 ounces of gold arc consumed annually hero in making gold leaf. Gold can bo beaten so thin that it will takn 12,000 leaves to equal tho thickness of tho sheet upon which this paper is printed An ounce can bo beaten down to 2,fi00 leaven 3b inches siiuarc. At a establishment in Hudson street a reporter was told that tho gold is bought of of brokers in small ingots, winch nro melted into bars about quarter of an inch thick. Thcso aro rolled into a ribbon as thick as nolo paper. After passing through tho hands of tho beaters it is put in books interleaved with manilla tissue, nnd twenty books are put in a package. Tho ordinary wells for 7 a package, and tho best S7.o0 to $7.7.5. No dross comes from tho gold as it is beaten, but thero nro tagged edges which drop off. Tho leaf is used by gilder, book binders, dentists, and sign painters. "Tho wages of gold-beaters aro $11 a week. A piece nand nets $5 a beat ing. A good ono can possibly do two a wrek and ns many as nino in a month have been dono. Extra is piid if tho workman beats tho irold below fivo grains to a book. Some can do four and a half, and oven four, grains per book." "How thin can you get itT a beater in Broome street was asked. "It is beaten to ono three-hundred thousandth of an inch at fivo grains to tho book. If it gets down to four grains it is ono threo-hundred-and-sixly-thousnndthi of nn inch.

Tho skins aro put in packages of 900 skins each, aud three of theso molds go to a beating." "How much cold is thero in a beat- ing?" "I1 lftv tennvwpit?ht in a linalint. The ribbon of solid gold is divided in to 170 or 180 pieces, each about an inch square. These aro put into a cutcli mado of French paper foui inches square. This is beaten until wo get tlio gold to tho edges. It is hand ed with pincers at that time. It is boaten half an hour. Tlio pieces aro thon piled twenty on top of each other. Then thoy aro cut in four and doubled over, making 720. Thoy aro then put in a 'pchodcr,' or finer mold cut down. Wo fill tho schodor with IhcHO leaves in tho middle, nnd break it out to tho edges. Wo beat it about two hours, until wo draw about ten pennyweights off the schroder." "Does it havo to bo kept dry! "Wo havo to keep tho windows shut; but tho cutches, Bchoders, and molds take up ho much inoisturo that they have to bo put in a hot mold to press tho inoisturo out. "Don't that finish itT" "Oh, no. Tho leaves aro cut nway again into four with a tojl called a wagon, making 2,880, but tho molds hold only 2,700. Tho molds aro beat en lour hours,, at tho end of each hour thero being what is called a close, when thoy nro heated. Thon tho beat er is through with it and tho cutter takes it.

I chalked out a lay-out on my cell floor, and got an old deck of cards and dealt faro for him. Wo used buttons for chips, and ho would squat outside my grated door and tell me whore to nhico his bets. In a fow days I had all his ready cash. 'pi,,. i... 1:1 i , . . .i t. lui-ii ne num u irjuiu anu lost luai. 11 is too tedious to tell in detail, but head by head his slock all vanished. Then ho put up his watch and chain and suit of clothe. I won them, nnd mado him poko them through tho grates. In p week my cell looked like a country store. I had boots, hams, a pair of scales, all tho sheriff's office stationery, a barrel of flour, a saddle, and a feather bed. At last ho came in and said: "John, III tell you what I'll do. You havo won overvthinc I can move except tho kids and tho old woman, and now I'll play a gamo of seven up for all I've lost acainst vour libertv." "It's a go." "Wo plavcd throutfh tho prates. I tell you it was excitine. It was neck or nothing with me, nnd you could near me old sheriff breatho clear over in the next lot. Wo got six a piece, and it oame my deal. I turned a jack. "That puts you out," said tho sher iff, unlocking tho door. "Now get out.'' Ho claimed that tho conditions of tho game didn't bar him from taking a shot at me, and as I went over tho fenco he loft off a vouni' cannon in mv direction. 1 guess, though, that laHt jack mado him nervous, for tho load went over my head and crippled a darky in a cornfield. I didti't stop to inquire how badly ho was hurt." A Itatural Mistake- THE MANN Kit IN WHICH TUB I.AWYKIt HC0I.I1K1) IN FItONT OK TUB JUICY TUB ritOllAIII.B CAUSE. From tlio Merchant Traveler.
