THE SECRET OF A LIFE.
riarpnee Kane .at ia Lis
6uru;itu-
ou.-ilj furaished library, lost 10
tbougbt evidently unwelcome to him,
tor Lis Lanrliiinie face was clouded
aad the stem lips Gnu compressed,
as he gazed vacantly into the red
coals ia the grate.
Though furty roars had passed
over him, neither form nor face in
dicated that ae, for proudly trect
and graceful, besides possessinir dark
flashiug eyes, waving hair, and regu
lar feature's, he was a strikingly hand
some man, appearing scarcely more
than thirty.
Hearerf" in luxury, for his parents
had left him a mill ion a ire when but
a college -student, he had Dever
known poverty through necessity,
thouoh a wandering life of mauy
years iQ many lands had shown him
that tnire existed more want and
poverty in the world, from lack of
the almighty dollar, and his noble
nature aidtil ever, where circum
stances brought him in contact whb
his fellow beiugs in distress.
Three months before that bleak
December evening when be is seated
ia the library of his magniflcent
Ualtimore bame, Clarence Kane had
returned from a wandering tour
abroad which had la-ted for two
years, and the cirinnistances that
had brought, him home again is the
subject of this sketch.
Sitting there in sileut meditation,
he was awaiting the coming of one
who was very dear to him ; though
do wife or sieter had ever brighten
ed h.s doorway, or made happy his
bachelor home. Clarence Kane held
the responsible position o: guardian
over a young girl of seveuteen, and
having received from the fair maiden
a telegram that afternoon that she
would be with him during the even
ing, having left her boarding-school
for the Christmas holidays, be ha 1
remained away from the Club to
greet her.
"If she had only stated by what
train, or at what hour, she would ar
rive, so that I could have met ber,"
he murmured, in rather an ill-humored
tone, and theu, as the sound of
carriage wheels on the pebbly drive
broke on his ear, he started up sud
denly and walked quickly to the
door, which wasUhrown Vide open
by the 1utlcr, to usher in ft bright
face, filmoit hidden, r,s was the form,
by warm wrans, for the night was
bleak and cold.
"Juanitn, you are indeed welcome',"
exclaimed Clarence Kane, checking
himself a. ho was about to enfold in
his arms the maiden, w hom, ia the
three years that had pased since he
hadjast beheld her, bad grown from
girlhood to womanhood.
"Thank you, my dear guardian, I
knew you would like a little 6unshine
this cold winter weather, hence I
have come," laughed a musical voice
from beneath the wraps, and as if
divining the reason why he had not
embraced ber, the young girl quickly
raised her pouting, ripe lips fcr a
kiss.

and theu aid.v4 Lpr ia caouud.ing
heri.lf frou wrap, furs and bat, and
his surprise was evident as he be
be'.d what a metarmrphosed form his
ward was.
A form supplo, graceful, and slight
ly above the medium height, yet
perfect ia mould ; a face radient with
a strangely faeinating beauty, for the
eyes were midnight iu blackness,
liquid in expression, and filled wiih
olumbering fire, while the hair, rival

With a lon-drawn sigb, Clarence

ESTABLISHED, 183
PA., WEDNESDAY, MARCH 10. IS75.
Bat, amid all the admiration of the
outer world bestowed upon them,
both Clarence Kane and Jnanita
were better content to enjoy the quiet
of the old homestead, and were hap
piest when left to themselves.
And yet, neilbr of them knew the
others feelings in 1 this matter, but
believed the regard existing between
them was such as was right between
guardian and ward.
The merry day, were soon over,
and once again Jaanita returned to
her school duties, but not for long ;
as in the conimeneement of summer,
she was to graduate and appear be
fore the world'- footlights as a young
lady; and with joj she looked for
ward to the day when again she
would be back at toe old homestead,
which Clarence found to be strangely
dark and dismal without her fair
presence. i
But the months rolled away at
last, and once again Juaaita gladden
ed the mansion with her sunny
smile and silver voice, to the joy of
her guardian and the delight of the
servants, for one and all of them
loved her dearly.
A month after her return she was
seated one moonlit f vening, enjoying
from the open window, the scene of
lawn, lake and forest spread before
her, when suddenly quick step was
heard, aud Clarence Kane entered
the room, and approaching her, said
sofilv :
"Juantta, I am glad I Bad you
alone, for I have something to tell
you."
Even in tne uiooniigQi me ueauu
ful face was seen to flush quickly, and
the dark eyes were raised toward her
guardian. -
Pointing to a seal oesiae ner,
Juanita made no reply; and sitting
down, Clarence Kane said quietly :
"Juanita tc-dav is the first time
the thought of losing you ever came
forcibly upon me "
" hat mean you : apeak, i im
plore youP pried tbp impassioned
rirl, startled at his words.
Do not be alarmed lure girl ; I
merely mean to say that Casper
Hastings and Colonel Hughes nave
both asked me to-day to allow them
to lay themselves, their hearts and
fortunes at your pretty feet;" and
Clarence spoke playfully.
I love neither of them and never
shall. Hence I will not marry the
one or the other; but what did you
say ?'
"I said I would speak to you on
the subject."
iou are willing to give me up,
then?"
Never! no, I mean; but some
day you will love some man, and he
will take you from me."
"No, no, no, I will not go away
from you. 1 will not love any one;
I wish to be always witb yoa."
Clarence Kane sprang to his feet
and rapidly crossed the floor, and
returning, said quickly :.
"Juanita, would to Heaven 1
could keep you ever with me j by,.
Erst, ere I know my oorj, let me
telj'yoq of yourself j let me tell you
pf yoyr past life."
Listen! 014 nave believed your
self in my keeping by yeur parents,
who I told yon died in a foreign
land : but to your lue hangs a story
which now you must know, for no
longer are yon a child.
"iou know my life Las been one
of adventure of wandering, and thus
I will begin by telling ycu that six
teen years ago I was roaming in
Spain, and one night put up at an ion
by the roadside, where were stationed
a number of Spanish officers.
"While enjoying my supper in
quiet, a conversation ocenred at a
table near me. between several
Spanish officers, that'wfcs' Biast in
salting to nij own land,' and every
Vila epithet was Leaped upon Ame
rica ahd'4m.ericans,'until, unahjo
Stand, it longer, tx y feet,
and c,rosiir.g oyer Jo the table, threw
a glass, of wine into the fat of a
young pftan, attired In a captain's
uniform, and who had been particu
larly insulting in all he bad said:
"Instantly there was a coutiaotlon,
and making kqowR wy nationality,
the young captain demand that I
ihoufd meet bim in a duel, and noth
ing loath, I accepted the challenge,
and promised to meet him the next
day but one, in a spot designated in
the mountains, and some twelve
miles distant, the captain promising
to have a friend present who would
act as my second, fori was a stranger
in a strange land, and knew not
whom to call opon; but do not be
impatient, Juatita, for atUl "V-r
upon my life.'
""f o U& ' ifi' time, I procured a
guide the next afternoon, and
thoroughly armed and well mounted,
we started for the rendezvous; but a
terrific storm sit in, we lost oar way,
darkness came on, and after wander
ing for hours, a friendly light ;aas-
our eyes, and easreriy. wa bought it,
and found a. txtXW mountain farm
kos, hoa the inmates of which we
received a warm welcome.
"I liked not the appearance of the
place, and neither did my guide, for
we felt assured that there had been
some half dozen men in the house
when we called at the gate, for dis
tinctly Lad we beard leud voices,
and yet, only an old man and
woman had greeted us.
"But a good supper was given ns.
My guide looked after th Los
and was assigned f.Uce ia tie barn
tofc!eea whjie 1 wa3 shown up
stairs, (a a small room possessing but
a single door and window, besides
the trap through which I had enter
ed the chamber.
"preaad aa I waa, I threw myself
upon the low Led, but not to sleep;
fur strange thoughts came over me,
and soon I heard the bam of voices,
and through a crack in the floor dis
covered in the room below t balf
doien fierce-looking men ia earnest
conversation.
At once 1 knew all was ia the
. f . . . aad we
-i. . . j .k . .
I We I looked, the men started
jrth and I distinctly Leard the

" .
"Rising to my feet, I softly felt
around tne room until I found the
door I htd observed, and after a few
efforts it opened and I
discovered!
that it led down a narrow pasag-
I way, which feHowiCj; sos distance,
7.
I came opon a window opening out
open a shed, which slanted off to
wards the ground at the back of the
house.
"Here was a chance to escape, but
unwilling to leave my guide in dan
ger without some effort to save him,
I lit match and glanced around
me, and to the right discovered a
door, which I judged led into a room
commanding a view . of the stable
yard. "The latch raised easily aud I en
tered, and lighting another match,
what was my horror to discov
er the forms of three men lying
upon the floor ; but believing them
asleep I was about to withdraw when
a voice said quickly:
.'Great Heavens! you here?'
"Instantly I turned the blaze up
on the speaker, and with amazement
discovered one of tbe young offic -rs
I bad met in the inn, bound hand
and foot, while by his side lay two
others, the one I was to meet tbe
next morning in deadly combat, and
he that was to have been my second.
"But no need had I tj dread that
morrow's meeting, fur both my
enemy and the one that wa3 to hare
acted as my friend was dead."
"Deadr
"Yes, Juanita, they had
cruelly put to death by the
band that was soon to seek my
very
life;
for, like my guide and mrself, the
other party had become lost in the
storm and had happened upon the
same luuse.
"This was quickly told me by the
young officer, whose life tLe bandits
bad spared to torture from him on
the morrow a confession as to when
a richly-ladened commissary train
was to cross the moustains.
Instantly I severed the bonds of
the young officer, and raising to his
feet be took the pistol I offered bim,
and together we were consulting as
to our future movements to save the
poor guide, when, from the stable
yard, came a loud cry for mcrch, a
few shots, and a groan of agony, and
poor Tepe, we k,new, had been cruel
lv murdered.
" 'Let us away frora here, or our
fate will be cuch as his; see, there
are a doien of them,' cried the
Spaaiard.
"And leading tbe way, I dashed
through tbe window opening upon
shed, just as a cry arose among the
bandits to seek me.
"Out upon the roof, off upon the
ground, we hastily scrambled, and at
lull speed rushed on in the darkness,
mile after mile, until my poor com
panion was broken down and could
go no further; but then daylight
broke, and I discovered a small cot
near by, and arousing the inmates,
we asked for shelter, which was
cheerfully given, although death
there met our gaze ; for upon a snow
white bed lay a vouug end beautiful
woman, who had been thrown frora
her horse the evenjrAS Lefcre and
killed.
"One glance, and my companion
recognised her. She was the wife of
the young officei with whom I was to
engage in a duel.
"Her story had been told to the
inmates of the cottage, ere she died,
which was that her husband had
gone to fight a duel, and she was
hastening after him to prevent it,
accompanied only by a guide, when
her horse had fallen and crushed her
beneath bis weight
"Juanita, never did I suffer as then,
and to atone for my having been the
cause of all this misery, I had the
body of tbe beautiful woman, Lcxne
back to ber home, zp,'X boa, there
buried in state. Inside the grave of
I her bf'tfovedt husband, for the follow-

W day me, young oiucer nau ia,eu

gone to tike haw of the bandits,
and. though, he had found tbe place
deserted, except, by the dead, he had
brought back with him the bodies of
Lis friends and my nnfortune.lt.
guide.
"And, Juanita, to atone yet the
more for lay sin, I took to my heart
the babr child a little girl of one
year of the dead parents, and bring
ing her to America reared ner as
my ward "
"And I am she that was that lit
tle orphan girl J" asked Jaanita in a
low whisper.
"Yes, Juanita and each year you
hare crown to womanhood, the ten
drils of my heart have clung raore
closely around you, until, npvr cy
future without your m,Ct laa a dreary
blanlt. ; but yet J -wr It must be so,
fic WW that you know tbe story of
your life, I feel that you will "
"Love you ten-fold more, my dear,
noble guardian, and never, never
leave you !" And with tbe passion
ate vehemence of her nature, Juanita
sprang forward and clung closely
around tbe neok of the man who had
so we" endeavored to atone lor the
1 past.
"You will be my wife, then,
Juanita?"' asked Clarence Kane, after
a pause.
"Yea. Never have I known other
love than that I felt for yoa ; and
mingled with it, has been that I
would hold for mother, father,

"My poor, poor parents, bleeping

How IndUam Ha at.
It is generally supposed that Indi
ans never make use of their dogs
when hunting, but l their own
driving on foot. There, are, howev-
! er, some tribes that use dogs success-
'fully in the chase. The Chippewa
Indians surround some favorite feed
ing ground of the deer, and one In
dian turns tbe dog loose in the cen
tre of the enclosed space. Some of
the dogs are well trained and bunt
independently of each other, and it
often happens that several deer are
killed at one drive. The number of
hunters engaged in a drive is limited,
according to the number of runaways
to be manned. Large parties often
"split" up and hunt in localities
adapted to their numbers. Some
limes the Chionewas still bunt sin?-
boenjly- Tbey have trails cut through
their hunting grounds, as nearly
parallel as they can mike them, so
that when tbey are hunting there
are no dead sticks to crack and
alarm the game, or anr twicrs to ob
struct the hunter's view. Jiany In
dians foolishly chew their bullets until
they become so rough that they can
scarcely force them down their rifles.
I told one Indian that to cbew his
rifle balls was "medicine," and that
they would go crooked. He took a
ball frem his pouch that was badly
marred and pointed to it, saying:
Good medicine heap kill deer." I
tried to show him by signs that Le
was wrong in Lis belief, but ;ould
not convice him of the fact. Mr.
Leo then took a cartridge frora my
belt, and after having looked al it,
and turned it over about twenty
times; he looked up quickly and gave
a grunt of satisfaction, and said:
"Big shoot heap kill niatfa.t."'
(bear.)
The cartridge referred to was one
of Sharp's 44 cal., with patched ball
and eighty, grains of powder. My
red friend soon left me, evidently
musing on the big cartridge. A3 he
was leaving, I saw him look at one
of the small balls and quickly put it
in his pouch, as if he was disgusted
with its small size.
In a buffalo country the Gnos
Ventres, Sioux, Assineboines, Ar
ickarees (Bees) Piegans, Pawnees
and Utes, surround or corrall a herd
when hun:ing. In some places I
have Been Indians keep a herd of
buffalo corralled lor three days. They
keep ttfcir sentinels out on rise3 on
the prairie about a mile or two, (ac
cording to the lay of the ground,)
from the herd, and should the buffalo
make a "brake they are immediately
headed and generally turned back
by one or more Indians. Hunting
tbe buffalo is the chief sport of the
Indians. In fact they are never so
happy as they are when hunting the
buffalo, and gormandizing on its
flesh. Indians having fast horses, or
in other words, horses that will catch
buffalo, tie a feather ia their aairaals'
tails, and should an Indian, have a
horse that can easily overtake a buf
falo, he pu,ti an additional feather in
his pony's fore-lock as a mark of
great speed. Some of the Sioux In
dians punch holes in the Lack edges
of their ponie's ears and tie them full
of bright colored silks and worsteds.
Horse were valued according to
their feathers, and should an Indian
wish to buy a horse be immediately
asks his owner if the pony can catch
a buffalo. Indians seldom hunt
alone far from their villages. First,
it is against the rules of their tribe
and seccondly, they are afraid of
losing their scalps. Should an In
dian go hunting "on the sly" and be
found out, he will be "soldiered," or
have Lis ckth3 cut to pieces when
he returns to camp. Regular hunt
in? parties arc organized to extend
their hunts to any locality agreed
upon. When running buffalu each
individual has two ponies, oae of
which he lends; they &; ridden al
ternately during tke hunt War
Dartiea iiso use 'lead'' horses. Some
Iniians still use the bow for hunting,
but they are mostly old men, who
are too poor to own a rifle. The
Winchester carbiue is the favor
ite gun with the Indians for war or
hunting. Many of them have the
Springfield needle guns, and I have
seen some individuals do good shoot
ing with them. If an Indian is short
of amunition he will take his robe or
blanket from his back and trade it j
for a few cartridges. When chasingj
the buffalo over a rolling prairie, tbey
are followed leisurely by the
nntil si bend reaches a hill, w
hunter
bend reaches a bill, when tb
timble Indian pony of tbe banter
makes two jumps to the buSaio's one
when ascending tbe till, and thus
darts forward, raciig them, giving
his rider a cta&co to empty his Win
chester. Cailla are seldom killed by
tie Indiats, as the flesh and siikea
robes of the cow are tbe desiderate.
When the chase is over the hun
ters claim their game aod dress it as
follows: The skin is removed and the
quarters severed from the body. Tbe
leg bones are cracked and the mar
row saved for making pemican. The
brains of the cows are also used for
eatina-and tanning. The flesh is

I would say, Indians, as a class, are
good hunters but poor shots. They
are patient, and wiil wait ia a coule
on the trail of a band of antelope all
day, if necessary, to obtain a shot.
In the timber they are equally good
at finding game, and watch runways

Air Bath, for Ktork.
At a late meeting of the Royal
Agricultural society of Ireland, Lord
Scriven made some statements ad
vocating the use of the hot air or
Turkish bath as a remedy for diseases
for domestic animals. An experi
ence of over four years in the u.-e of
these baths, proved conclusively that
they would cure all ordinary diseases
"incidental to horses and all farm
stock." The remedy seemed special

Tbe sea depends on the disintegra
tion of rocks on land for salt. It does
not originate in oceans and seas.
Rains wash it and hold it in solution
as particles are liberated by violence,
decomposition, and gradual action of
natural forces
All streamlets, rivers,
j therefore, are constantly transporting
salt to the sea. If there is more tnaa

The Xeni (Ohio) T'jrchti'jht re
lates this little story :
"An old gentleman living near
here wa villed upon a shert time
since by a clock tinker, who examia-
ed oar old Inend ciock buu
noanced it out of order. Tbe
pro-
old
gentleman said it was good enough
for him and the old woman, and he
would not have it fixed, bat be was
insisted upon, and finally he agreed
to keep the tinker and his horse all
night in recompense for tbe necessa
ry repairs to tho house clock
Tbe clock proved t need more re--piirs
than was at Erst expected, and
iu addition to the nigLi's lodging,
seventy-five ceats was demanded.
The old gentleman objected to this,
and began to count up what fce had
already given his lodger. "First
there was your supper "
"But stop," says the tinker, "you
asked me to take supper, and consev
quently can't charge me for that."
Savs tbe old man : "Vou a.-ked me
to tit my cl.it k, con.-piuin;tlv you
cau't charge ui-r for that. So we are
square on the s ipper aud the clock,
and you owe me fur your lodging
aud breakfast." The old man was
ahead. The matter was finally corn
prumised by the old man paying
twentv-tive cents, and the young
man departed, muttering something
about grangers."'

TLc system of love, courtship and
marriage? has underline very radical
changes since the davs wDen Jaeob
devoted a eoniderabIe portion cf his
lifu to winning Leah, the tender
eyed, and Rachel, the beaulifel.
W ho, in this age of steam, electrici
ty and Atlantic cables, could devote
seven years to paying those laborious
attentions which have justly come to
be called "serious" so serious, in
deed, that in many instances the
fashionable pair are oppressed by a
sad feeli ig of soberness during the
reiuaiin!. r of their lives? Even Ja
