Hiding over tbc Texan prairie on
ber ppirited black steed, with checks
glowing and eyes flashing with a
sense of limUleea libertj, Alice Arlrn
eemed a second Pi Vernon an
Amazonian queen ererrtbioy brave
and beautiful.
A rumni'-r day'a sun was linking
beyond lie Lorizon line of the wide

Tom reined in hi horse and hesi

not afraid that anybody will ran

el.ork her riding whip valiantly;
' and it'ii possible for me to run away

ceding figure, until the red horizon
reminded hi:n of his duties at the i
KitucL.
Reaching a cluinp of trees on the
1ank or the narrow stream, Alice
tithed, and gazed around her. Amid
ail the gorgeous coloring oT the Bcene
there mingled that undeGnahle spirit
of sadness which never fails to ac
company the death of a day. Per
haps this was in unison with her
thoughts, for a grave expression came
iti ) her eyes, and the half fniile
v a-ed to play aronnd her lips.
Her thoughts had front bavktwo
year back through months of drea
ry mailing and sclf-rcproai-b. The
figure of the man she had loved

lover to be more ' lover like" less

nd Alice flirted fat and furiously.
Guy b re this with admirable pa
tienee. "A male imitation of Chaucer's
GriseIJa," she murmured, impatient
ly. "Will nothing arouse bimf"
There was a certain pelf-styled
Spanish marquis at tbc hotel. " He
was pretty well known to be an tin
scrupulous gambler. At one of the
balls, Alice selected hitn as partnor
in two successive waltzes.

she thought as she whirled around
to the strains of tbe ' IJlue Danulie."

the dance, he grasped Ler wrist, and
led Ler out upon the balcony. He
sternly commanded her never to
dance a round dance with anr other
than himself. Alice bad not bar
gained for this. She wanted more
warmth, even jealousy, in ber lover;
but she would brook no infringement
on her liberty of action. She repli
ed haughtily, there was a stormy
scene, and they parted.
When her brother Tom proposed to
ro to Texas, and to invest some
winner in a pcheme for raising cattle,
Alice had volunteered to accompany
him; and she was glad of tbe chance,
for accustomed scenes and people
had become- painful to her.
Sitting in ber saddle here, with the
Texan prairie land around ber, she
reviewed tbe pat with bitter sorrow.
She was awakened from ber reverie
by the (onndsof approaching horses'
coots.
On tbe opposite side of the river.
which the drought had narrowed to
a small, turbulent stream, Alice saw
hand of horsemen. They were ap
proaching. She drew back amid the
trees, and watbed them. As they
came nearer, sbe saw tbey were Co
manche Indians. Tbey reached the
opposite bank, and stopped to par
Icy. Their attention seemed fixed
on sonic object in the distance. Alice
looked in the direction indicated by
their gestures, and saw tbe duskV
forms composing t herd of buffaloes
cuuinea against tbe glowing sky.
The ComancbescvidenilT resolved
to pursue tbe flying herd. To Alice's
great relief, they dashed twtr. lear
ing only three of their number on the
river bank.
Looking closely at these three

and she nearly reeled from ber sad

With a great, almost superhuman

He pronounced Gay's wound, al

When Guy's senses returned, and
he saw Alice, who had refused to
leave him, there was a scene, the dia
logue of which, thoogb somewhat in
coherent, was mutually satisfactory
to the actors.
It appeared that Guy, having
strayed from his party, had been
pounced upon by these strolling Com
anches, and, after a brave struggle
on his part, taken prisoner, to serve
as a hostage fr several of tbtir
number who had been captured by
the United States' soldiers.
"I say. A'.ice," laughed Tom, "you
have fairly ass?rted woman's right
to use a pistol."
"I will continue to assert woman's
right to help man," returned Alice,
glancing fondly at Guy.
And Guy knew that a similar
right would be his in future as fur as
Alice was concerned.

Too much stress cannot be laid
upon the fundamental importance of
perfect command over thought
How many a student finds a lack of
this power the chief hindrance to pro
gress! How many a page must ue
re-read, how maor lessons conned
over
er and over to compensate for laps-
of thought! In the Vo
es
absence of this power over mind lies
tbe chief difference between mental
strength and mental weakness.
Some men think as a cnua plays w no
a hammer, striking little blows here,
there, anywhere, at any object with
in reach." The action of & strong
mind may bo compared to a stcae
breaker's fclcdge-bammcr, dealing
stubborn blows successively upon
one spot till the hard rock cracks aud
yields. The power to classify and
arrange ideas in proper order is one

even the best of minus. In propor
tion as this faculty grows stronger.
desultory and wasted effort diminish
es. ben tbe nuna acts, u acts iu
some purpose, and can begin
wbereit left off without going over
tbe a hole ground again to take up
tbe threads of its ratiocination..
Concentration and system are thus
seen to be the chief elements in the
art of thinking. To cultivate the
Erst, watchfulness to detect tbe least
wandering, and the immediate exer
tion of the will to call back and bold
the mind upon the subject unde- con
sideration, should be vigilantly exer
cised. To secure the latter, the prac
tice of aualyzing and considering the
different paruof a subject, first sepa
rately, and then in their relations to
each other, is a discipline to which,
we are sorry to say, is much uegte
ed in most methods of instruction.

try tbe nitrate of silver, which was a
remedy for a similar disease io the
buman eye. The large animal was
ordered to lay down, and at first, on
the application of tbe remedy, raised
a most extraordinary roar at the
acute pain wbich it occasioned. Tbe
effect, however, was wonderful. The
eye was in & manner restored, and

next day when he was brought out
and heard the Doctor's voice, be Icy
