Sho storied suddenly to her fett. Too
well ebo knew the import of the sound
to linger, and she sprang quickly from
tbo nrbor. But nho wna too into to es

beach directly bifoia her, v.Ub
rotked tonguo anil glistening cyis, a

tlm. Hut Jane Matchrnont was madn of
bravo material, nnd drawing the loug

courogooUBly for the e' greenish head
to descend.
It came slowly down. The while
fang's looked keeu and hharp, nud tho
hideous mouth yo'.vutd Ilka the mouth
of some terrible cavern.
Jane felt the edgo of tho poniard; it
would have split n hair. Aud graspn g
tuo handle lightly she waited lor tho last
quick dart which tho serpent would
niako nt his victim, nnd whtu it came
she raised the poniard high in thonir

was dealt with her whole strength, nud
tho blood tpurled in great red drops ou
her clothes, while tho body hlowly un
wound itself from tho limb nnd fell Upon
the greensward by the sevciod head.
Miss Mrtrcbmont ejed tho dead serpent
fixedly, nnd n UenditU thoaght entered
her bruin.
Unwindinc tho criruion scarf from
her neck aud shoulders she wiped her
dagger. Then, wilh tho nid of tho'scaif,
she drew the dead body into the arbor
and covered it carefully with leaves.
Half an hour later she entered the tllu-
iug-room as ccinpotedly as though sto
had but ooma from n quiet Mumber, aud
embracing Lcr cousiu, tensed her play
fully. Litoiu the afternoon Jack com
plained of a headache, nnd with tho
geullest touch in tho world Hisi March

her lo walk down to tha nrbor aud have

"He was, It has not beeu half an

Tho midsummer sun bung high in the
hoavons the air was sweet with newly
out grass, when Audrew Noilh cams
whistling up to tbo nnoleut well and
drew a draught of cold water In
tha old bucket.
He was n tall, handsome young fellow,
with a silky black beafd nnd a com
plexion of rich, healthy brown. It was
difficult to imagine how he over came to

who was peeling harvest apples for pits
on tbo doorstep.
"Well, mother," saH tho young man
cheerily, "how goes It?"
'Iho Widow Korlh heaved a borean

'My dear," said 8he, "thi,s is, n world
of chauge and sorrow."
"Well, mother, nud what has happened
now?"
"I was down to the store this morn
ing,'' catd Mrs. North, "buying n skiin
of carpet thread nud' two eight-ounce
papers of tucks, and I bad to wait for
the change till Ihe voting gal that runs
the telegraph machine bad writ out the
message. And I couldn't help seein' It
over her shoulder; it was from a young
man down in York State to Fauny Cleve
land." "Husb, motherl" said Af.drew North,
reddening to tho roots of his bair.
'Don't tell mo nny more. It is not for
us to examine iuto Mrs. SleyeUnd'd pri
vate affairs."
"But It is my bounden duty to tell you
this, Andrew,'' said tho M lady. "No
young wouinu has any business to de-
ceivo n man as Fanny is deceiving you.
The bridal robo isfiuished,' was what
tho young man telgraphed, 'Come and
see it at once," Don t look so struct of

I set my eJes ou ber. Yes, you may de

Bnt the last words of the old lady's
lugubrious sentence were lost in the ears
ol her son, as ho strode aT,y under tho
apple trees toward tho hay-field.
"Poor Andrew)" sho sighed. "I'm
afraid he'll lake it hard. But I never
did think it right for a widow to marry
again."
And Audrawl Very different Tero his

The old lady meanwhile went around
among her friends relating Ibo horrible
story of the 'telegraphic mcssige' uuder

(y-loiir hours everybody iu Lindenvillo
knew all about it that Mrs. Cleveland,

Fanny Cleveland was entirely ignoraut
of the tide of gossip that ebbed and
flowed about her, nud p,U that surprised
her was the unusual absence from her
sido of Andrew North, tho stalwar

"Bnt I'm not going to ba married,

Andrew?"
And then Nortb told ber the whole

The writer heard the following story a
few evenings ciuor, To him it was very
amusirg, ns well ns n good Illustration of
atho aptness of different lnitids to miscon
strue tho same tacts in quite opposite
direotions.
Soma time ago a learned Frenchman
hecamo very etnhusiasllc on the snlject
of a universal language for tho human
race. After much thought and theorizing
on the subject be came to the conclusion
that the only language that could be
universal at tha present day must be n
language of slgus, Hoipg deeply Im
pressed, with tho importance of this lan
guors to humanity, ho determined to
travel from country to couutry nnd leach
in all their college and universities,
As it happened, tho first country be
reaahed In his travels was IreUnd, and
the first institution ba went to was (be
Uuivtrsity of Dubliu.
He pallet) upon the president of the
university, and after some conversation
itb bim asked him if he had n profes
sor of signs, in his university. Now
there was uo professor of signs iu the
university, bnt tbopresident.uot wiehlng
o be behind the learned Frenchman, told
bim that they had one. Tha Frcucbn an
asked to be introduced to bim. Ihe
prcsiient was taken aback at this, but
told bim that ho could not see tbe pro-
ssor that day, but if he would call the
next day at tho same hour ho would in.
troduce bim.
After tha Frenchman had gone, tho
president called bis professors together
and told them tbo fix be was in, nnd told
them that one of then must ploy the
part of professor of signs next day. They
nil demurred aud objected to this being
afraid that they might be canght by the
renchman.
As uona of them was willing to. play
the part, they at last decided to train
Miko, thocboroman, for it. ilil.o bad
lot an eye, aud w'as very bepsative about
it, thinking that people wore noticing it
and nukiug illusions to it.
Mike was consulted, and consented to
play tha part,providing that Ihe French
man ahculd not refer to his defect.
Tho nest day the president and pro
febsors dressed Miko up in a good suit
of clothes, took bim to a reoitaiiou-room
seated him alouo ou the platform, aud
then retired for tho Frenchman was to
seo him alone. Before thev left bim
they told him what to do, aud that he
must not speak,
Ho replied, "Suro I'll not, if ho sez
nothin' about me oye."
iU the appointed timo the Frenchman
called, aud vas ushered iuto tbo "recita
tion-room of Ihe professor of signs.'1 The
president nnd professors waited in an
adjoining room anxiously for the result.
Iu a short time tha Frenchman came
back to them, apparently muoh pleased.
How did you liko cur professor of
signs?" inquired tho president.
Very much indeed. I congratulate
you on your able professor, I am more
than ever convinced that the language
of signs is to bo tho 'uuivernl language.
When I went into tha room I held up
one linger, meaning there is one God
He understood mo nt nnce, and held up
two fingers, menuing Father and Eon,
then held up threo Augers, meaning
thero are three peisons in the Trinity,
Ha replied by doubling up bis hand,
meaning, and these threo nre one, J
tbeu withdrew. It is wonderful, I am
delighted."
After the Frenchman had gone, the
president and professors sent in baste
for Mike, for though they wero pleased
in bavins gotten ont of the dilemma,
they wtre very anxious to hoar Mike's
account of the interview, Miko came In
very angry. "I tould yfz bo would bat
eometbing about me oyo. The first
thing be did was hould up wan finger,
m'uniu' I had but wnn oye."
"What did yon do, tbeu, Mike?" asked
the president.
"Sure, I held np me two flDgers, till
let him know I had two fists; an' pbat
does tba durty blackguard do but hould
up three fingers, ma'auiu' wo bad bnt
throe eyes betwaue us. Thin I doubled
