'They aro" fhe said. ?!o wly '-oh, I don't know who they ure. except just the C'hidester Brothers; nor what they are, except denti.-ts."' Dentists:'' I exclaimed. "Yes, donti.sita.

They have two ofKees at To:n Hiison's, but they drivo out into tho country and call, and they Mill g" to any (ma who tends fur them. It is very convenient, now, isn't it?"' 'Hut 1 never heard of bueh a thin?! At least, not aiiicnj; real dentists. Who told you about them?"' -Told me? Why, they told me." -Molly Hayes! Do you know them?" "Yes, indeed! I wat introduced to them at church last Wednesday niht, and they havo called twice. Aunt Kliza has ordered a set of teeth from them. I Wonder they haVO not been , 1 ncie. - T 1 . . . . coy nooa not trouble memselves. I said, dryly. Molly blushed crimson and ehang-od tho subject. Soon after sho went away. Well, that vras the beg-inning' of it. Tho whole country went w ild on the Chidester Brothers after that, and every one who came near me had something to say in their praise. The very fence-rows seemed to whisper of new teeth. 1 was busy just then, for mother had been quite ill, and, w hen she w as able, father and Jim had taken her awry for a trip. I was ke.-pinj house and ruling over tho bovs doubtless with wisdom, and certainly with great w ear and tear of mind and body. We lived two miles out of j Meadow sid-j, a lovelv c'.d Countrv to-.vn, and although the cirls wt re ver-v ln minctee me. and .'cr.u.ni: me notes and b.xks and pat terns ty tneir brothers Iitl.e and biK'.

To every one except (jrorpo I f.-ee'v expresse.1 my opinion of such chancy ao.iuair.tar.eo-s. "I don't like strangers, anyway; hut when it comes to strang-crs yoa "don't know- " 'Hi!lo. Jennie! Got you thoro!" cried Jack tho cavalier. "They wouldn't bo strangers if jou knew them, would they?" "And f !io are a sort of twin Cheji1" John' b.-i.ies." I went on. superior to tho interrupt inn. -I cnu't u nderstand any girl recivins: their attentions, or even raukirsr them amocjf her ae tiuaintanccs." T.iL, Jennie, th.-y aro so pleassnt f-r.d tf) hsnil:om, , jtml really quite like Leiul. mcn." mildly remonstrated iusie Brow n, w ho w as calling-. 'LiX:! But I w ant the men I know to be g iitlemen, and I don't lielievo a ij-ntkman would think of peddling either teeth or tooth-brushes. Ono is of no higher grade of business than is the other." "I think you are rijrht," olserved Mr. Homing, Susie's oseoi t, and tho very q ui-t assistant of Mr. Brown, our dr.!;yi,'ist. Air. Hetnino; had been a stranger a year Ix-fore this. but he had oine to j Meadowsido Well reeommended. Be- j siil'-s, lie ". as so very plain, it woul.i never have paid him to bo any thing but eminently respectable." Of courso I ain rifrht!" I cried. "Why. these men may bo part of a frantr of burglars, instead of pentle tnen or men of honest and honorable ailing'. What if they should be some of the scamps who broke into Dr. Sett's hous-e, over in Iebanon, and carried elf his intrtiments and his new dentist's chair? 1 know they shouldn't come hero as they f.' to so many hous'-s. particularly with father ami Jim away. I should never have a mo ment's peace!" I should think you would feci timid as it is," remarked Sumo, w ith a fiance round the room. We were eating- fruit in the dining-room, whore the sideboard and buffet were crowded w ith silver and pretty things. -Where do you keep sill thos,.?" a--ked Mr. Homing. -You surely d. not leave them exposed in this way during the night!" "(Ih, iiu, indit'd! Thiy are all car ried up into mother's room. Mine is next to it. it is a terrihle nuisance, and if they wire mine I should j ist leave them here The house is saf Clioligh." You hare bunjlar-alarms. I sup- pO: -N.j. wo have not. Father talks of getting them, but there it stands at tlalki.lg." Then you do not sleep alone?" "Indeed. I do. The Ivovs are in tho hum ry ami tl." servant in tho attic. But I like to alone. Dear mo! I d. ii't think I could -stand it without u loir hmirivt') myself. Li -ten! That's tl.o way it is from mornia z until night. Just excuse me while I settle th jiu. " 1 run up-tiiairs, a:.d when I ctttn .low n Sunle ai.d ?.Ir. Hen.ing were ready to lul:e leave, and waiting under li.-. hull-la nip. "I lM.'Iievo this w ill be a malch." I thought, as I kis S. And really," carrying on the same thought as 1 went slowly up-stairs again, "I don't see why it would not be a good thing. Su-lo is ceita-lnly ::ijukt, pret ty 'ittle vhing! And he is net half such a fright as I thought him. TUvr j was q iito a glow in his eyes to night. l"su:.:l, he is as dull as di'- h n:,!--r. Not much like those everla. --ting (.'Lid ester I! -others." As I ..-t my cand!e on my dre-Mag--ta'-'l".

I fell asleep and dreamed :"!.-. Homing and Susie mixing and roiling pills together upon mother's silver salver. - ' s. . Two wei-ks later a party of the young people came out to sp,.nd the last evening of my loneliness with mo. Father and mother were coming home the next day, and I was heartily glad of it. Jim was in Bo-ton. finishing his trip w ith some college friends. Among my gue-ts of the evening were Susie Bt own and Mr. Homing, Molly Hayes and one of tho ("hidoster Brothers! I could hardly believe my eyes. But Molly was as unconcerned as possible, introduced him with that little air of hers w hich always says to me as plain ly as words: "See what I havo caught!" and rattled away all the evening as usual. As for him. he be haved very well, and. although I did not exchange words with him after the introduction, I must say I enjov.-d looking at him on the sly. Nothing I had heard of his looks had done him injustice. They all staid late. Mr. Heming and Susie were the first to leave, and Molly and tho Oii.h-ster the last. After they had crossed tiio door-step I saw hint pause and glance back at the hall and the stairway. It was a pe culiar and searching glance, and gav mo a chilly sensation of fear and dread. My suspicions wero all re newed and strengthened. For, I will confess, the man's noble face and tear ing had influenced me. even in the one interview. Under the effect of that la-t plance. however, I ha 1 all the silver fathered up iuos,t carefully and packed in sev eral ba-kets, and 1 concluded to sleep in mother's room in-tead of my own. Mor-over. I op. ncd the doors between the nursery and our rooms. I was not at all mindful of tho delights of such utter loneliness, 1 w ent back and forth several thn? to the tumbled bu-ds in the nursery, envying the rosy sleepers, and it was late, indeed, before 1 joined them. Almost instantly, it seemed to me. I was broad awake again, and looking straight before me at a terrible, terri ble sight. There w as a light in the room a pale, uncertain, flickering light w hich streamed upward from the floor at the foot of the bod. and cast ttraage shad ows cm the ceiling. The door into my roora was shut, but the one into the hall was vide open, as well as the window beyond it. opening upon the porch-roof. I felt the night-wind from it blowing over me. I think that woke me, and not any noise or movement, for I lny perfectly still and calm until my scattereJ senses returned and I know what to feaf "BurlarsP beat tny frightened heart. "The Chldester Brothers!" camo choking into my tightened throat. I had too much senso to movo or scream. I lay still as death, only drawing long, even breaths as if sound in sleep, and using my eyes for all they wero worth. The shadows on the ceiling 6howed that things wero being taken up and put down our sil ver! by gigantic hands, but all other outlines were so confused I could dis tinguish nothing. How long the timo, bow deadly cold the chills of terror that swept over me, no one will ever know who has not passed through it alL Suddenly, I heard a sound a sound w hich filled ma with sickening dread. Tho boys were awake were moving wero calling me. The burglar sprang to his feet, light and noiseb-ss as a breath, and stood lioised and ready, his back toward me. There came the quick .alter of little feet. He turned - his lamp flared up.. In tho gha-s opposite, above the mask which hud doubtless slipped as he sprang up, 1 saw the face of the "emi-nent!- i ospovtablo" Mr. lle.r.iug! Involuntarily, I uttered a sharpery. Then, I closo.j my oyes and felt my self sinking away into helpless, hope less t"rror. But the door into my room flew open with a bang-, I heard Jack shout and Nutty r-croaiu; a rustle, a thud, a pistol-shot, conlased voices, tramping of feet, mid tremen dous pmndiug and kicking on the porch. Just let any ono try "this sort of thing," and see lxow quickly events follow each other, and how many different sounds they can hear at uu-i time! I sprang out of led. and the chaos Ivegun to resolve itself into some) kind of order. Jack and Nutty were both telling mo that there wa a carri:.gw at tho door; the burglar was gonr through the winJow and evidently into the hands of his enemies, for above tho confusion down-aulrs I cou'd hear Jim our brother Jim roaring fur tho hall-door to bo openud. S "ine one was pounding away on it lustily. I seized Nutty and Jack, as so. r. :i I bad hurried into my w rapjier, and trembling in every limb, wo lushed down tho long hull and stairs. The, hall-lamp was burning, as usual. I hastily unbolt.-!, uabanvd and u:i 1'ieked the great fro'i. d-o: opened it w iih a jerk, arid threw myself into the arms of th" Chld'-st -r Brothers. 1 thought it was Jiial" I cried, ttartlng a iv ay. "Jennie! Thank God!"' cried Jim, snatching me to him, as he rushed in. Are you all safe? No ono hurt at a. "No one! "Just in And nothing taken!" time!" exclaimed the Chidosters. "Just in time!" echoed Jim. Bov! I can never half thank you'"' There were others trooping in and standing round me with startled and :dniir:ng face-. A dark ar.d compact, g.-oup T,.re uniform and carried them selves with the easy manner of men to whom nothing was new or shock ing. In their midst, hatlesa and pale, and oh! how ugly, mean and common. 1 saw Mr. Heming. I know now- that there were not more than five or six men altogether, but that niirht they seemed to till the hall. "Jennie, you are shaking with a eliill!" cried Jim. "You inu-t go to b. d at on.-.!. I'll take you up" for I tightened my hold on him "and call the servants for you. 1 expect they are too frightened to come out of their room. Just make yourselves comfort able, gentlemen; 111 bo with you in live minutes." He marched mo to my room, and called nurse. "Oh, Jim, one moment, please! Where did you come from? And who are the Chidesters?" First-rate fellows my clasp, you know. They telegraphed me. But I can't stop, really. I'll be up again as soon as I can get away." Then I covered my bend among the pillows and had a good, hard and frightened cry. lor I uas frightened, now that it was all over. Nurso did her best for mo by sending the boys to Ived and keeping tho doors closed. Bv the timo Jim tapped fo:- admittance I w as quiet and ready to hear his story. "Well. Jennie, we've made a big haul. That rascal is the maMcr-spiri. of the gang which has been at work round hero for a year or two. He's an old hand at it. and his engagement with Mr. Brown was one of his clever dodges. Ho is a druggist, as he is half a d".en other things, but Lis letters were forged. The t'hidesters saw him once in Boston when he was on trial, and they knew him at once when they saw him lu re. They aro wide awake, both of tli 'tn. Ariout a week ago they heard something I haven't pot at the W-ttom of it yet, but two men who came to Tomlin-on for the night had something to do with it which put them on the track of to-night, and they wrote to mo, but they had to make it a cautious letter, and asked me to hold myself in readiness for a telegram, but not to come w ithout one. I was at their cou-ins'. They telegraphed last night, ai l met me at the train at the next station. Syd says lio'was hero ln.-t evening, f jr he was half afraid I might not get home, and he thought he had b tter look round a bit in case r.ny thing should como off to frighten i ou. By the w aj-. how is it you never met Ivefore?" "Hut w hy did he not tell me or some one?" I asked, passing the question, "Wanted to catch the siamp, of course. And there was no danger, really. They did every thing in first class style." Worthy the Chidoster Brothers," I said, with a little sneor. "Brothers? Whj they aro cousins double first, to bo sure, and enough alike to be brothers. Kieh as Jews both of them, too." "Then, why are they dentists?'1 I a.ked. "Dentists?" Jim's tone brought mo upright in bed. "Yes. dentists. And traveling den tists at that." I never heard any ono laugh as Jim did. I waited and waited for him to get through and tell me the joko until I was fairly cross. At last ho wiped his eyes, and with only an occasional chuckle out it camo. They had laid a wager that they could leave Boston in their own car riage and drive for six months east, west, north and south, just as they chose, taking no money with them and sending for none, but living honestly by their wits. "Not a soul in Boston believe" they are keeping to the terms of the-wager. They had not heard of them for a month when their letter came to me. What a pair they are! Tho idea of Syd and Cyril! Th.-y have had larks! Wni! until I seo them to-morrow! But you h:t.l lvetter get some sleep. I am gla 1 mother mUsed this, (.uxl night!" Of course. 1 dil not sleep until day light. And. of course, I thought of the Chidosters, We did not see thorn the next day. They went off in answer t a telegram, leaving a nolo for Jim.

REQUISITES FOR APPLES. How to .link.. Or. liti'linK a, Krult l.romii frofif utile. Success in orcharding has to do with varieties, treatment and sale. Cast Jill poreonal preforences aside, and se lect Fuch kinds as succeed in our r spoetive localities. This is most im portant. We must know the preju dices of purchasers whether red or white npph-s prove the more popu lar; whether the si.e shall bo large, milium or small. The question of quality settles itself. It is a fine thcory that would compel orchard ist. to le cume public instructors; but if high flavored, beautiful fruit can not be raided at a profit, thai of iniVrior qual ity will at.d must take its place. An other strong- point is to be content with few varieties the fewer the bet tor. "Succession of kinds." sounds plausible, as well as the assumption that wh-n we have many varieties some one or more will surely produce a crop. That this is unsound reason ing many orchardists have burned to thir sorrow. One thoroughly relia ble variety is worth- more than a hundred of doubtful charac ter. With naturally good mel low soil all nesded preparation is to manure with no stinted hand, and then plow deep and thoroughly. It Is of utmost importauco that the young orchard receive a good send off; after that, if cultivated carefully for a few years, meanwhile cropping with vegetables, there will bo no ces sation of growth in tho trees. This part of tho programme is generally carried out; but. after cropping with vegetables ceases, how many people ever fertilize the soil, or care for the trees? More failures result from this c.-ssation of surface culture, and proper pruning, than from attacks of insects, which, und"r preventives and treatment of recent years, are not con sidered a serious obtacle. How to place one's fruit properly on the market teems to tho uninitiated a point of minor consequence; but w hen wo perceive customers calling year after year for packages bearing the imprint of some noted orchardist. there must lo a reason for it. and the solution is, that the fruit is carefully and evenly selected, preserved in first class condition, and is, in short, just what the invoice calls for. Nearness to good market ia an important factor in making apples pay; tho roarer pro ducer can pet to consumer, and conse quent reduced freight, tho greater tho margin of profit, of course. Finally, much depends upon closo application and earnest work. Under tho impres sion that trees can care for themselves many young orchardists have utterly failed. Josiah Hoopes, in N. Y.

A Texan wrote i the Treasurer thrit. a. certain largo amount of r.ioi.ey b, .enging to him had been burned and that ho had forwarded the remains by express in a box. The box came all right, properly wrapped und wit ii seals unbroken, but wh"n it was op.-iied there was absolutely nothing but air inside of it.

Next to fire the young baby is put down in the department as the most destructive agent- Innumerable affi davits aro received in which John Jones, or w hatever his name may lie, "being duly sworn, deposes and says." that his infant son did chew up and swallow the missing portion of -tain f-5 bills, and that the said missing por tions were thereby wholly destroyed and aro now no longer in existence.

The fancy of la ice for $10 bills as lining for luxurious nests has loen impressed upon lie: redempt ion bureau by a long series of examples. Only a few days un s, v.-ral hundred dollars' worth of nest lining was redeemed for a Southern man who had fo" many years given up all idea of finding his missing treasure. There was $790 of it in the first place, notes of almost tho first issue made by the Government early in war times. It had been hidden away in a place supposed to be secure and had disapjvearcd. A quar ter of a century later, in repairing tho porch of the old house, tho nest of the wealthy mouse Lad lx?on discovered, and enough of the fragments recovered to secure more than half of the orig inal deposit- Also from the Soulh come most of tho mouldy, worm-eaten bills which have been hidden in bottles or buried in tho earth for years. There aro not so many eat ings banks in tho South as in thrifty New England, and hiding id aces are used. But tho habit of using tho parlor or kitchen stove as a safety deposit vault is not confined to any one section of the country. Neither is tho cu-tom of burning up this treasuro by some other member of the family who is all unaware of its value. Years ago tho clerks in the redemption bureau ceased to declaim upon the stupidity of such people. It has bc-oomo a mat ter of course with them, and they ex pect about so many letters every week from people who havo warmed $2 pair of hands with $1,000 worth of silver certificates. Evidence of a family row crops out in a queer way in tho bureau occa sionally. Mr. Blank sends on tho half of a $10 note with a torn edge and an affidavit that the remainder of the note has been destroyed. Presently comes tho other half with a corre spondingly ragged edge and an affida vit from Mrs. Blank that tho first half has been destroyed. Then the re demption bureau peoplo know that there has Wen an exciting time over money in tho Blank family, and there is before them a vivid picture of Blank clinging to one end of tho note and his wile to the other end until it parts in the middle . n,.
