my hotiw moved noiselessly about, ai
If to ho in keuplnjr with tho rcit of
nature.
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

of
a troiiical climate ilotirinh

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.

bringing the gun to my shoulder, hred.
Tho bruto rolled over, quivering and
wrilhinc on tho ground.
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,

Boycotting in India.
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. I may mention n
well-known case. A distinguished
Hindoo gontlomnn and merchant of a

Tho seal of honor was triven to me.
thn brido sitting on my right, her elder
aunt (her unslo had two wives) on my
loft. Persians think a (rent deal of
appearance and outward show, and all
tho ladies wcro decked in their gaud
lest attire, and wcro blooming in nil
thu ficticious (dories of painted woman
hood. Fair hair nnd eyes aro not ad
mired by them, but n fair skin nnd
florid complexion aro greatly nought
alter, nnd call lorth tho tribute of gen
cral admiration. I'.ven when nature
has distributed her gifts with no nig
uard hand thoy will furvlsh up tho com
plexion with quantities of rougo nnd
powder until they look like full blown
rosc. Many nn old woman of hideous
forbidding aspect, whoo appearance
would bo Invaluablo in melodrama, U
mado up into tho bad semblance of a
young woman; tho furrows Timo with
his ruthless fingers has traced, are fill
ed in with powder, not artistically
faced as tho European belle many of
whose charms might not bear closo
overhauling often sets off her loveli
ness with artfully arranged aids to
beauty, but laid on in thick layers.
Although tho brido was very young,
having at the most seen sixteen rum
mers, rouge, nlas, was no stranger to
her pretty faccl Her hair, which was
jot black nnd verylonir, was plaited in
to a number of tiny tails, tho ends of
which peeped forth from under tho
chngat of folded white linen sho wore
on her head. Nothing can oxeced tlio
ugliness or iinbecomingncss of this
head gear; it is merely a squaro pieco
of muslin or cotton folded corner wise,
and tightly fastened with n pin or tiny
brooch under tho chin, with two ends
hanging down tho hack, and tho re
maining two falling over tho breast.
Over this again is worn tho hotiso
veil which envelopes tho wholo figure;
it is a largo square or rounded pieco of
muslin or gay patterned chintz and is
not fastened on hot simply kept in its
placo by tho arms. Her voluminous
skirt wan of whito and pink striped
satin, handsomely trimmed with gold
lace, and roaohed only half way to tho
knoo; tho logs wcro baro.
Uttcn as many as twenty yards of
silk or satin are employed for those
skirts, which aro gathered into a hand
at tho waist, and nro worn over four or
fivo fino petticoats very much stiffen

moro fashionable it is. Tho bodice is
a loose sort of jacket of silk or velvet,
trimmed with gold lace,tho hIccvcs aro
long and terminate in a pointed caff
that turns back, reaching nearly to tho
elbow. This is worn oyer n calico or
linen shirt. Although all degrees agreo
in thoir loading features, and tho fash
ions never chango in tho East as thoy

great extent in detail, nnd afford a
scope for tho peculiar tasto or fancy
of tho wearer. Tho contrast between

now, wiicrr, ani nr whom it is manu-
KACTUnEI).
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
Wow i ork system omploys men only,
with L'irls to do tho cuttintr. The Gor
man Hystem employH children of 8 to 0,
which system Hastinijs, of .Philadel
phia, tried to introduce here, but his
workmen struck, gnd ho lost his lead.
On that system men do tho baating
and girls do tho priming and filling.
"How is tho fjold bcatoui
"It is beaten in molds mado in Lon
don from tho intestines of cows, clean
ed and varnished with a secret prepara
tion manufactured by Puckndtro &
Nephew, of London. 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

wai playing cards in Goorgia somo

was n strong prejudice against gam

told mo that I was In a very tight fix
I mado tho best of tho situation, nnd
managed to get on good term! with
tho sheriff a typical Georgian, nnd,
by the way, a pretty trood fellow. One
day I discovered by accident that he
was a great fnro bank heed. It seems
that he had been qiiilo wealthy at one
time, but ho had lost nil his property
ogainct tho game, and would walk ten
miles through a swamp to get to play.
That just suited me. 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.

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."

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
