V?e miss the laugh that made muslo Wherever the lost boy went; This man has a euiile most winsome, His eyes have a grave Intent.

JOHN HARPER'S FORTUNE. BY WILLIS It. COOKE. "Past seven o'clock, and John not here!'"' said Mrs.' Harper, wrinkling her pretly brows. I wonder what, enn bo the reason?" Tea was all ready on the littlo ronnd table In the middle of the room; the cop per kettle hummed merrily on tbo conls. nnd a bunch of buttercups and wild col urubine on the table betrayed'the fnct of Mrs. Harper's conntry walk that after noon. Nellie Harper and her busband, John, bad been married jnst two years, nnd n happier conplo it Isn't often oneV lot to see. They bad married on an income that would soarcely furnish gloves nnd bofitiet to some of Nellie's fasfalonable school friends; bnt with strict economy, and carefully looking after tbe'odds and enda, they had found it snfficient, and not nntil the baby was born did Nellie begin to feel uneasy as to financial mat ters. "John." said she, "we ought to lay np a Utile for baby's sake." "So. we ourIiI, my dear," said John; cheerily, "nnd so wo wiill" "Our income Is Tery small," sighed Nellie. "Yon never said so before, Nell!" "Ah, bnt we never bad baby to care fcr beforel" nodded wise little Nellie. So John took extra writing from the ltw stationer at night, to earn u odd penny for n lltllemvinqs-batik book; and Nellie spent her leiinre hours in writing fhnrifnl sketobes for a New York slory pnpr, which paid ber a dollar api-ce money that spemed liko fairyold to the yonng anlhorerb as it csme in week by wees; nnn yet toe savings-bank account so slowly grew "John," said Mrs. Harper, "we have flfly dollars lain np, haven't we?" "Abont thai amnunt," said Mr. Harp er, looking np from bis law copying. !'Lurn Doti's husband tripled his cap ilal by bnying np 'Swamp Island' shsreu on Wall Street last week, and selling ont again when the market prnmised well. am sore If you were to tmsLe money to mm yon might rioubla it in "And I am snre, Nell. It would be a great dexl easier way to get rid of it to throw it down the well!" "Johul" "No speculation for me, my denr." said th young man. "I've seen quite enongb of that sort of thing. Small gilus and sure that's my motto." "Then yon'Il never be a rich man In the world.John," retorted his wlfe.sligbt lv plqned. "I muht take my risk of that, dear." And so Mrs. Harper's attempt at in spiring ber husband with speculative am. bilion fell flat. But she didn't leave ofl thinking of it, for all that; and to-night, as she snt wait ing for ber hmbitnd, nnd watching the sleeping cherub in his cradle, she wove an unconscions web of fancy about tbe little slumbering form "If we were only rich! If baby Charles could hut have ft college education, and go abroad, and take bis place with tbe wealthy aud honored of the laud," she murmured. For every (me woman is ns ambitions In her heart as Napoleon Bonaparte him self. And all of a sudden a n)acnl!no fnivbStep rang on tbe threshold, and John Harper burst lulo tbe room, flushed and eager nnd panting with tbe unwonted haste he bad made. , "John, what has happened?" "What do you guess, pel?" "Yonr salary has been raised?" ' Better than that" "My story has been accepted by tbe Weekly Star' 1" "Better (ban tbaL" "I give it np," said Nellie. "Oh. John, tell me at ouce what is it?" "Cousin Sam is dead, and ha bos left me all his money!" "Cousin Sum!" repeated Nell, bewild ered, "That eccentrie old fellow who lives in P " said John, sinking into a chair and fanning himself with the brim of his bat "My third cousin. He disinherit ed bis daughter because she didn't marry to suit him; made at least half a dzeu wild, and burned tbem all at last, leav ing a codicil that makes the fortune mine. Hurrah t We're rich people at Ut pel! EUbty thousand dollars, at leosl! Tbrce cheers! Aud give 'em with a will!" "OU, Johu, take caret You've waked babyC cried Nellie, fljiug ti the sidof the crib. "Bother Ubj Ltt Uim cry a little-, it is good for bis lungs. We can bare a patent persmbnlator, and a nnrsery fitted np with all the modern conveniences,eb? That's something worth bawling for, isn't It little chubby chetke?" "Ob, John! Aud then wo can have Uncle and Aunt Mary to live wilb nsl" said Nellle.trottiugtbetiabyon ber knee. "Unole and Aunt Muryl What should they live illi us fot?" retorted Mr. Harp er, somewhat contemptuously. 'Bat John, they are so poorl" . "Thero are a great many poor people In the world, Nell." "And Cousin Will's educatIon,"baxard ed Netllo. "We 02U help him through college now," "Well, I'd like to know what business it is of ours to help Wilt Brown through college," said 'Ir. Harper. "Nobody helped me through college, I know. If we're going to divide our money with all creation, there soon will be on end of our riches," said he, rather shot My. Nellie looked timidly at him. How unlike was his manner to that of her pen niless, light-hearted husband of twenty fonr hours ago, who would have lent bis solo remaining dollar to n friend nnd shared bis last crnst with n beggar! "We'll have n house on Fifth Avenue. pet" be continued, excitedly; "and" ' Ok, Jobn, I would much rather livo in the country," pleaded Nellie. "I wouldn't then. Tbe city for me!" "Yes, but, John" "Mrs. Harper, yon will please to re member that the money Is mine, not yours!" said ber husband, imperiously. Nellie recoiled eb if some notions in sect bad stung her, nnd bit her lip, while her eyes filled with tears. "Good thing for me that Mnry Potter threw herself away on that drunken fel low," observed John, as he sat down to the table and began nervously crumbling tip a slice of bread. "It's an ill wind that blows nobody any good." "Bnt, John, yon will surely mats the poor girl an allowance?" "Make her an allowance? I shall do nothing of tho kind. Why should I?" ' Because the money should rightfully be hers; because sbo's deprived of it by n mere ctpriceof her father; because we aro neither more nor less than thieves if we tftko It from her!" cried Nellie, earnestly. "Noll, you ro a fool!" said John, snap pishly. "On look at things from a busi ness point of viewl Tbe money Is ours." "But it will be no blessing to us if it is wrongfully come by." "I nm the best judge oi (hat, Mrs. Harper," finid ihe hnsbaud, stiffly. Nrllie bnrst into tears. "John, you never spoke to me so be fore." "And j on never made such a fool of yourself before!" 'I wish tbe monny was at tbe bottom of Ibe sen," sobbed Nell. "That's a woman's logic," sneered her husband. "Hello! what's that?" It was the postman with a letter. "From Davis & Brown, Cousin Sam's lawyers," said Mr. Harper, as he broke tbe t.enl. "Vig ilant wide-awake fellows. I think I shall o intinuo to employ them. Eb? bow wby, what's this? The deuce?" The let ter fell from his bauds; he looked blank ly at his wifo. Oh, Johrl, what is it?" cried Nellie. They've found a new will," said he. 'dated ten days later than Ihe other docu ment, nnd every cent is left to Patty." "I am glad of it!" exclaimed Nellie, heartily. Jobn Harper nroso and walked once or twice across tbe fl. or; then be came back, and stooping over, be kissed his wife's forehead. 'I'm glad of it too," said be. "Do yon know, pet, I think I shouldn't make a good millionaire? I was getting grasping nnd greedy. I felt as if all the world was iu league to cheat me. Iam rijh emugb with you and baby, and I can rarva nnt a fortune for rqyselfl" And neither Jobn Harper nor his wife grudged poor Patty her stroke of good fortune. "0SCAE WILDE STYLE." A day or two agon man wearing n look of doubt, and having the air of one car rying a great mental burden, made np to a citizen who was seated under one of tbe City Hall porticoes, and softly begin. "I'm green. I live ont here abont ten miles, and I never read or bear anything nitit its a year old. I want to ask you a question." "All right, sir." "What U the O-car Wil le style?" "Well, there is chap named Oscar Wilde. He's a cross between a fool and a lunstic. He dresses like a child, and sees more beauty In an old brick yard than tbo r st of ns ran find in a botanical garden. Anything outrageous, ridiiu lous or absurd is rail d alter him." "Is that il? Well that settles me!" "What is your trouble?" "Well, you see, I bare a wife and two dangbters. Abont six months ago I caught ona of tbe girls a-kissing a car penter, and she said it was O-tcar Wilde style. Then I ran on to Ibe other with ber head on the hired man's shnulder,and sho said the stme thing. I didn't know, yon kuow, nnd I bad to let it pass. I didn't want my gals to be behind tbe age, yon see, and so I didn't kick. Then I anight the old woman feeding caramels to tho bouse paiutrr, and that was Oscar Wilde style once more. Its been going on all over tbe farm ever since moon light walks.kissing under tbe apple trees, hugging on tbe veranda and calling each other darling over the door-yard. And now it wasn't Oscar Wilde style after all?" "Hardly." "That settles me some morel I'm go ing homel I'm going at the rate of six miles an hour and boitnoe in on 'em in tbe midst of their hilurily, and if I don't mangle and pulverize tbe whole caboodle I'll comeback to be kicked! 0rar Wilde!

An English mronaut, Mr. Joseph Simons, has made a bnlloou trip of 170 miles in an hour and three-quarters. It is proposed to try an improved phonograph In a Paris Institution for teaching pupils tha pronunciation of for eign languages. A regular and strong electrlo current has been observed in germinating seeds exposed to moisture, tho radical being negative to tho cotyledous. Tho pbe. nomenon is being investigated byllerr Herman. Tho number of honrs of bright sun shine recorded ct Greenwich Observi tory during 1881 was 1301, which is more t: an 100 hours above tbe average of tbe four preceding years. According to tbe report of the Tails Elictrloal Exhibition judges, tbegrrakst efflolcnr.y of inoindcsccnt electric lamps cannot be assumed to be moro than 300 candle-lights for each horse-power of current Tho height of tbe atmosphere has been estimated by Dr. A. Krber from the phenomenon of refraction. By two different methods of working ont tbe problem be obtains a result of 117.4 and of 119.7 miles respectively. Straps made from various materials havo been tested by Hcrr Weiulig, who finds that tbe strops of Russian hemp ore about ten per cent, stranger than those of Itnllan hemp and twice as strong ns those of cotton. In departments of science the micro scope is rapidly gaining favor as a means of investigation. In n recent paper H. Relnsch claims that its nso in chemical analysis is not only increasing, but that in some respects it surpasses the spectro scope in usefulness. A subterranean forest was recently Uncovered at a depth of ten feet below tbo surface on the estate of Lord Norman ton, near Peterborough, England . Some of the trees are of great size, nnd so well preserved that the different varieties- such as oak aud elm may be readily dis tinguished. A remarkable b'ock of om'.er was lately found in tbe Baltic Sea. Pieces of amber rarely weigh moro than a pound, but this specimen not only weighs more than eight pounds but possesses all Ibe qualities of tbe rarest kinds. The largest piece of amber known is one in tbe min ernlogical museum of Berlin weighing thirteen and a half pounds. Mr.4,11. McLnchlan gives it ns his opinionllint many of the wood-eating in sects do not attack healthy trees.bnt only those which have commenced to decay from tbe operation of other causes. These insects aro not responsible for the de struction of the trees, bnt simply for has tening the process after it has been begun. An Italian. Prof. Carlo Pavesi, pro poses as an improved disinfectant a so lotion composed of chloride of lime.oim phor and glycerine. This compound may be used in nil cases where pheulo acid is now rmph yed, and ilsodoris less poisonous than the latter. Il is claimed that tbe putrefaction of animal bodies is immediately arrested by it Prof. W. Zengor has for a consider able time been trying to prove the exist e ice of a tolerably well-dt fined period in the occurrence of terrestrial phenomena, such as earthquakes, storms, variations In atmospheric pressure and in t opera tnre, magnetic disturbances, elo. Tha length of Prof. Zenger'a period is 12.0 days, corresponding to a half-rotation of tho snu. Tbe total amount of gold in the an riferocs saud of the Ilhlne has been es timated at $30,000,000: but it is mostly covered by soil unier cultivation. The richest portions of this sand contain only about one part of gold in two millions, yet sands have been worked when con taining a much smaller proportion. Gold in small quant il Irs also occurs in the sands of the Rhone, Ihe Aar, the Danube and several other European rivers. A curious fact in connection with In. stanlaneous photogrnpbpy baa lately been noticed. In the photograph of a vehicle drawn by a trotting horse, all tbe parts are very distinctly shown xcept the wheels, which are less distinct in their upper part than In tbe lower. The rea. son is the mathematical one that tbe spokes of tbe wheel have a mnoh greater viloclty when at the upper part thnn when their extremities are near the gronnd, The nnnu.il report of (ho Greenwich Observatory (or 1E81 calls attention to a remarkable cbaDge in the motion of Sir! tin. the dog star. During 1877 and 1878 this star was traveling throngh space at the rate of about twenty.tuo miles a sec oud, hut laat year this rale seems to have been diminished to about seven miles a second. This apparent decrease of speed is snpposed to be dne to the movement ofS'rius iu Its orbit HOW HE TALKED BACK TO HIM.
