ent-e was already teaching ber to
bold as a matter of rf gret; and now it
eo'nied iaieibiog more than a bur.t
of girli?h petulance, as, with ber
bead lying ou Hugo's, hhe wept iu
bitterly.
Six months before t-be sat iu that
same room, eagt-rly anticipating tie
return of Walter leruurd from Italy.
He came, Walter, the handsome boy
lover; now the accomplished artitt.
Hut alas1, for anticipations of tbe
warm Leaned girl! Walter was
changed. Ia place ot the frank, geui
ai manner, was fashionable elegauce,
but with a constraint that seemed to
bar out and utterly p.-eclud - all ap
proach to the old confluence. Grieved
and disappointed, Alice had not
thought till tbeu how much shecsred
for ber old friend; but now she felt
sure that he bad bestowed his affec
tions on some oue dunug bis absence.
And one day with a trembiing heart,
fearing to know the truth, 6be ven
tured to rally Lim oa the subject of
her suspicion.
"Miss Mdlard," be sa d, "I should
be sorry if you really thought ibis.
Bat you will believe me wheu I say
I love my art, uad 1 love, too, past
memories. How dear ihese recollec
tions of the past are I can never ex
press."' Ibis was ail ke said. .Now six
months bud passed away, and Wal
ter was still, as at first, ouly the pol
ished visitor. In society he was
courted and flattered, bat no lady fair
found the beart of the artist. Mean
time many suitors had Sought the
hand of Alice; and now at last there
glittered oa her baud au engagement
ring. Hid she believe that when it
was placed tbere that Captain l'bilip
Chester loved her? She hoped so, and
hoping, tried to believe. Did she
a.-k her own heart if she !oved bim!
Alas ! when a fair youug girl whose
bfe should be all suusbiue fears to
question ber own beart. But w hat
it was when Philip w as near, whether
it was tone or look that seemed to
lay an icy finger ou ber heart, she
could not tell. Joy seemed to slip
from ber beart tbe buoyancy ot
youth was crushed atuiueteen.
"Are you happy, Hugo?' said she,
loi kiug into the dog's wis ful eyes.
"I'm glad you are alive, and that we
are friends. If you should die, good
do(r, bow lonely I should be! I should
lock at your photograph, and remem
ber how you used lo come aad sit by
me when I was fast asleep, always
faithful ; and yeu uDder.-uud every
word I say to you. 1 only wish
someone you know who I mean
understood my beart as well as you
do. Hugo, tell me in a little whisper,
do vou think be cares anvtbine for
me? Ah! but I've thought of some
thing I've thought of something
I've thought of something!"
Alice sprang up and commetced
her toilet, and an bour afterward
found ber entering tbe studio of Wal
ter Bernard.
"Mr. Bernard, she said, "I am
very desirous of having a portrait of
Hugo. Will you paint it tor me? 1
have Leeu thinking to-day, if he
should die, bow glad I should be to
have ii."
Hugo, while bis mistress was sav
ing this, was testifying bis affection
witbont regard to ibe delicate fabric
of her dress. Alice stooped dow n
and patted bis bead.
"No one loves me as be does,"
sbe said. And 1 luve bim so dear
ly!"
Captain Chester would bave twirl
ed bis moustache, aad carelessly said,
"Would to heaven that I were
IIiiiTo!" But Walter Bernard said
nothing of tbe sort. A thoughtful
expression came upon bis face, aud
then be told Miss Millard tbat be
fc!t honored that she bad selected
bici to put npon canvass tbe likeness
of one she loved so much.
"I hope J shall please you," be
said. "And Uu?i, bow is it?" and
be patted tbe doj afieciionately.
' Are you a good sitter? Let us see
what position would suit you best."
Hugo was placed upon a large cush
ion and assumed an altitude after his
own fashion.
"See bow well he understands
everything you tell bliu," said Alice.
"Does be?"
"Yes indeed; sometimes I '.hiuk I
must be careful what I say before
tiiui, though on the whole, I think I
rather make a confident ot him."
Alice laughed as she used to in the
olden times, and the light came into
bis tare.
The next day Alice came to leave
Hugo for bis first sitting. She took
off her glove, and Walter observed
that the diamond ring was no longer
there. It was a bit of news tbat so
ciety Jost no lime in repeating, tbat
tbe t-Dirazemeni between Cantain
l'bilip t'heso-r and Alice Millard was
broken off.
But Alice went do more j0 ie
studio of tbe artist until tbe portrait
was finished. Each day Hugo bad
been sent in care of old Thomas the
footman; and each day, ou his return,
he came burning into bis mistress'
room as though be was charged with
soxue very important message. Bui
presently the lat tooch was ivea to
tbe picture, and AJice went to see
it.
"Mr Bernard," she said after ti
pressing ber pleasure at iu beauty
"Did Hugo tell you tbat I waited for
you yesterday afternoon?"
"I should have blessed bim bad be
told me bo, Miss Millard. Alice,"
tie said, "1 nave waited long for you
to summon me."
"And I bave waited long for you
to come," Alice said, tbe bright col
or mounting to her cheeks, "Walter !
aiter!"
"Alice, I come with frank expres
sion, with deep love and devotion.
-My bean baa always been yours:
b-t what else have 1 to offer? Oh Al
ice, what can 1 ay? Beyond all

plants gradually kill ibe leo vigor
ous, though fully grown plants. Thus
out of twenty species growing ou a
little spot of turf (ihree feet ty four),
nine species perished from the other
speeies being allowe'l to grow freely."
Thus it is that tbe best grasses,
unless especially adapted t our mow
ings, so soon disappear. The more
hardy varieties, growiug freely, and
belter adapted to the soil, destroy
them. Profitable permanent mowings
tun tu;v be. maintaineu wnere iu
grasses suited to the soil are of a
character well adapted to hay mak
ing. On some soils this is not ibe
case, and here tbe land must bo bro
ken frequently, aad the most valuable
grasses renown. Top d'essiug will
uot be profitable; it will only stimu
late the inferior grasses to hasten
possession.
So in tbe pasture only those vari
eties suited to grazing win remain
and ihose held in chick by close crop
ping and the hoofs of animal, can
uot take advantage of oue another
Many varieties will crowd together
witbont any obtaining a derisive ad
vantage, aud the turf will be close
But if the cattle do not graze suffi
ciently, the results observed by Mr.
Darwin will follow to tbe permaneut
iejury of tbe lot.
TAby the l-jramlda Here Built.
Mr. Clarence Cook delivered tbe
second of his lectures on tbe "Archi
lecture of Ancient Egypt," in New
York, on Monday evening, the 23th
ult. The speaker gave a brief but
clear review of the ideas entertained
by the Egyptians upon the nature of
death w hich aided iu establishing ibe
lecturer's theory that they are noth
ing more or less than tombs of for
mer kings of the country. Speaking
of the construction of the three larg
est Pyramids, Mr. Cook said ibat tbe
predominaut idea seems to bave been
to keep the body deposited within it
as isolated from the outside world as
possible. The highest of the Pyra
mids that of Cbeops be sai i, is
HO feet, and about half-way between
Ike base and the apex is tbe chamber
w herein tbe remains of the monarch
whose names it liars are supposed
to have been placed. Access to tbis
chamler is only gained by a passage
runaini- from tbe northern angle in a
horizontal direction, and very nar
row at the beginning. All the Pyra
mids seem to bave been boilt, be con
tinued, iu regular course of masonry,
steplike on the outside, and tbe cham
ber left hollowed out as tbe structure
mounted upwards, while triangular
blocks of lime stone or granite, long
since removed aud used in building
the near by city of Cairo, were after
wards placed on tbe steps to smooth
the sides. Speaking of the tombs of
Egypt, bewn either in the solid rock
r built against the side of a hiil, tbe
lecturer said the same ideas seem to
have predominated, namely, that tbe
dead should be as inaccessible to the
living as possible. Thus, in the cel
ebrated toomb at Sacura a shaft is
sunk 00 feet, the dead chamber built
at ibe bottom, and then filled w'tb
pebbles and saod to close ii it gains'
all intruders. Tbe Egyptians be
lieve tbat af;er nmnerous migrations
the soul returns to the body, and be
naturally wishes to keep that body
from desecration as much as his in
genuity would permit. Tnese tombs,
said M". Cook, furnish us with tbe
whole history of ibe life of the Egvp
tian. Here we Gud all things the
people used and'beir actious deline
ated, and the popular view that they
were a sombre people seemi entirely
incorrect in the light of the recent
discoveries.
What mtOHton .Van Did.
They glided into a book-store and
advanced toward a young man wbo
sat facing the back of bis chair. There
were three of ibem. Oue was a
blonde, with a peach-blossom face
aud an eighty-dollar watch chain.
Tbe next was also a blonde, but she
wasn't so bloomiug as ibe other, aud
her chain wasn't worth as much bv
forty dollars. She wore a diamond
ring, however, ov.t the Soger of a
lavender glove, tybicb ' was worth
three or four watch chains. ' The
third one was the queen bse. She
was a brunette, with' meltiug browu
eyes, aud, as regards jeweiry, was
fa.- superior to the other two. Tbe
bruuette asked the young man to
buv a ticket to the cburcb social.
"How much a-e these bere tickets?"
asked the youug man.
' Seveuiy-fiveceuts,"said the bru
nette. "Are they going to bave a raffle;?"
"Yes," she said.
"What are you going to raffL for?"
be queried.
"For a cake with a gold ring in it,"
said the brunette,
"Are they going to bave a grab
bing and a ' beauty's bower,' wbere
the girls sell ice-cream?"
"Yes guess so," she said.
"Will the minister aud all tbe old
folks go home tarly?" ' '
"Ves.'y "
"Can the feJlow that gets tbe ring
kiss the prettiest girl in "the room? '
She blushed aud abswered '''ves "
Give me a ticket," said be, a's he
drew some change from bis pocket.
She laid a ticket on tbe cotiuier and
reached out her baud for tne money.
"I'll take my kiss first."
Tta ivj) blondes laughed Tbe
bruueile laughed. Jbe first b! .ude
said: "What a jofcei" Tb, seeoud
bloude tsaid; ' H.w amusiug!"' 7 be
bruuette said: "You haven't trot tbe
right yet "
"Never mind, I'll get it." sa!d the
young man,
"Just for the joke of the
said the brunette.
thing,"
' There's no one here," said
blonde.
one
"Oh, do sell the ticket," said the
other.
"Then I w ill," said the bruuette.
Tbe young mau saw bis opportuni
ty ana aid
at Mrrittrr ihtm II.. ... a.
three ki.ees. They all smiled aad
tbe brunette looked anxioos.
"How much do yoa say?" asked
tbe young man.
'Seventy-five cent."
"Seventy-five cents is not dear,'
said tbe brunette.
"Too much, 1 might not get tbe
ring, said be.
"Then you don't want a ticket?"
said the bruuette, almost crying.
"So, guesa not, wait till yoa bare
another," said be.
"1 guess we had better go," aid
one blonde.
"Yes "said tbe other, quietly.
"1 bave forgotton whether be took
