MAY 7, 1884, THE L.ITTLE FAT DOCTOR. IIo seemed so strange to me every way lit manner, and ways, and size, Krorn the buy I knew but yesterday I could hardly believe my eyes! To bear his name called over there, My liii'iiiory filled with glee, And lcatied to picture him young and fair, And fresh as he used to be. Hut, looking, as only glad eyes can, For the boy I knew of yore, I smiled on a portly little man I hud never seen before! Grave as a jniige, in courtliness I'rofesser-like and bland . A little fat doctor, and nothing leas. With his bat in his kimboed band. Dut how we talked old timet, and chaffed lCach other, with "Minnie," and "Jim !' And how the little fat doctor laughed And how I laughed at bint ! "Ami it's pleasant," I said, "though I yearn to see The face of the youth that was, To know no boy could smile on me As the little fat doctor does!" Joint Wliitrvmb Riley. A A IKE'S CHARM, A pout upon the red lipB of Ger ald .Sinclair' youne wile unmis takably a put for though a wife of almost two years, her iond, indul gent husband had for the first time said nay to an openly expressed wih. The fancy ball of the seaion, a grand and fashionable assemblage, was to take place during his absence and he had said that he should pre fer she would not attend. Stie was only 20. Let this much be paid in extenuation of the twe great tears that rose to the brown eyes and slowly trickled dewn the pretty face, splashing on to tbe dain ty morning drees, which, cliaging to tlie dainty forsa, revealed so perfect ly its graceful outlines. Certainly, Niobe had no reason to be ashamed of this one of her chil dren. Hut Gerald Sinclair had only stoopei and kif?ed away the glisten ing drops, in a half-hurried manner, perhaps to hide his awakening re morse. "Never mind, little wife. I'll make it ny te you another time." Then he was gone; but she sat still, turning and re-turning her wedding ring, with eyes bent upon it. It was a curious ring a solid band, set with five large diamonds. It had br-en her charm, her talis man, not to be taken from her finger until soul and body had parted ; but this morning it had lest its charm. If it failed to scatter the clouds, it failed to bring back the sunshine. Kven when the hour came round for Gut-aids home coming, he missed bis uniial warm welcome, but he thought he might trust hie wife.s heart and said nothings The next day lie started on his journey. "You're mot going, my dear?" ex claimed Mrs. Martia, bursting in upon her friend on the. morning of the bail. "And why net?" "Gerald is away," replied Mrs. Sinclair, with some little show of wifely dignity, as though the fact were in itself suflicieut explanation, "And why need that make aay difference?" pursued Mrs. Martin, a bewitching little widow seme few years her friend senior. "I will share my escort with you Count lSelzoni!" Snuhie Sinclair looked up amazed. She knew that the man mentioned had but lately gained an entree into sndftv, and knew also that her bus band disliked and distrusted him. Once or twice she had seen his eye fixed admiringly upon herself, ar.d had felt somewhat as the bird might feel beneath the basilisk glare of tke serpent. "Wei!, why don t you answer? continued Mrs. Martin. "Will you go "No, no, she replied trying to i lr trith firm Haniainn Iloairta . w- , . . . , . , . I 1 Ul) not minK mat UeraiQ HUStJlfeS tu " , , "Prejudice, my dear, all prejudice. The count is one of the most charm- i urcit, i uiuia x biiuuiu ud tsuuuiAvu for my willingness to share his at tentions, especially as I have heard him say all manner of pretty things abeut you "NonsenSf, hllen, retorted Mri. :n,,l..;T ',Ut Kt). lblt tne grOUBQ Slipping 1 . ... - j beneath her leet as she spoke After all Gerald had not said pos . . , , , , , . ltlVtlV HO ! JIad h thought It neeeS , h J OI)enJv eXDreSSed i . . his disapprobation ot her going? lie had not known that she would be ro sorely tempted. Besides she would wear a mask. No one would know her; and when she told Ger ald he would forgive her. A sudden thought came to her. "I will go," she said at last, after continued urging, and looking at the -. jn .j brightest lirhtA I picture ill ail UB uriguiesi llgnia, "on tne condition, and tnat is, no one is to know me not even the count. Say that you have persuad ed a friend to accompany you, who wishes to remain unknown. I will come to your house, where he will find me, and thus gain no clue. So it was decided ; but, in spite of her exquisite cestume of a fairy aa she concealed it and herself beneath ! a large domino, as the clock on her i Iliantel chimed ten, it Seemed U i tDat eVCT J Btrk "ld ' "S7 frtay 1" She was almost tempted to obey it, but she had promised Ellen ; and after all, she had heard that it was well for young wives to assert them- selves- An hour later and, on Count Bel zoni's arm, she entered upen the .brilliant scene. So far he bad not even seemed curious to ascertain her identity. She experienced at this a i ciricmlar sense of relief. - ,. . . . , j nc ivii nat ii ita urigufc aa ws clock rang eut the hour of midnkht, but for the first time in ker life light 'and gayety were distasteful. A hun . dred times she wished herself at ' home. j "I will tell Gerald. I hart already been punished," she whispered to herself, as she stood for a moment : alone in a quiet corner. ! "You look more like a nun than a fairy rather like one who had foresworn the vanities of the world, than a siren to tempt men to their deetruction, said a voico closo to her, "though to the latter I know no on mora fitted." "Sii I" ehe exclaiaaed indignantly, recognizing as she spoke, the count standing at her elbow. "Ah, you thought I did not know you. I should penetrate any dis guise you wore. Besides, you have forgotten to remove a badge of recog nition." She followed with her eyes his downward glance, and saw that it rested on her hand, ungloved, as in better accerd with the exigencies of her costume. Involuntarily she drew it away, with the ring which had betrayed her. Denial was useless. "Since vou know me, then," she aid, "we will not further play a part. To the others we are masks ; to ourselves we are ourselves." "Ah, madame," he whispered, "let us rather say to the world we are ourselves, to each other we are a mask. Can men, think you, look coldly on such beauty as you pos sess? Can " Indignant and alarmed, she check ed his further speech by starting forward to escape him. His hand closed on hers as in a vice. She wrenched it from him, sprang among a crowd of maskers, and so made her wav to the door. "Call a carriage for me," she di rected. Ten minutes later she was within her own home. Her first impulse was to tear off the hated costume which had caused her such trouble ; ker next to throw herself on the bed and sob out her excitement and con trition. The morning sun, stream ing into her room, awoke her. V ith a shudder, she remembered the events of the past night. She looked down at her hand the hand which had been polluted by anoth er's touch as though in some way she expected to find the contamina tion branded on its soft white sur face. It was all unmarred : but she looked again she rubbed her eyes and looked the color mean while fluttering out oi her cheeks. and her pale lips quivering, as if her heart seemed to stand still in a sud den agony of fear ; for from the third hnges was missing the talismanic ring. When and where had she lost it. and how could she now find the courage to confess all to Gerald ? She rose and dressed, revolving this problem in her mind. At any hour-her husband might return, r or the first time she dread ed to meet him dreaded to leok in to his kindly, handsome eyes and read there all his incredulous re proach, mingled perhaps with scorn and anger. The day wore on. Her friend. Mrs. Martin, ran in to scold her for her desertion ; but her pale face and trembling tones made good her plea of sudden illness. At nightfall Gerald arrived, She threw herself into his arms in a burst of nervous weeping: Wut when he wonderingly asked its cause, her courage failed her. hy was it she never imagined that he might look stern until to day? A week past, when one eveuing. sitting in the twilight, a step sound ed close beside. She looked up te discover the count. "Prden 1" he began, in answer to her indignant, questioning look. "Whv must vou be so cruel? May I not now see you?" "Sir, I command vau to leave me. I am now under the protection of my own roof." He was about to answer, when a latch key was heard inserted in the outside door. In an instant he had sprung into some place of concealment, but the fact that he was near lent to the young wife a sudden courage, born of the moment's desperation. Her husband, entering, approached her, but she motioned him back. "Gerald," she said, "I have a bit ter confession to make. It is fitting you Bhould hear it now." He listened, with arms folded across his breast, while she told him all the story of the fated night. "And is this all I he questioned bitterly, when she had paused. "No, not all," she continued, rais ing her voice. "My confession has another witness, who has forced his hated presence again upon me. The Count Belzoni is here again, Ger ald." As she spoke she drew aside the curtain ; but the form she expected to disclose was gone, the open win dow attesting te its flight. Silently tbe husband drew a pa per from his pocket, and showed her a paragraph ottering a reward tor the arrest of a thief- and swindler known as the Count Belzoni. "Mr darling," he said, "my wife has learned a lesson she'll net forget. I have known this story all the time, but have waited until yon came to tell it to me. I returned the night of the ball, to take you with me, when I found you had gone. Imag ine what I suffered, and my added sufferine when, arriving at the scene of enjoyment, where I had followed you, 1 discovered who was your companion. 1 stood near you, ana heard the words be addressed to you heard with joyful heart your an swer: saw tou wrenen: your nanus , from his bold, and also saw what Jeu did not, the sparkle of the ring e drew from your finger.

Only this mornins I recovered your ring from the man with whom be had pledged it as se curity. Once more I place it on your finger. But remember, dar ling:, it is only the outward charm. A wife's true talisman is her hus band's honor." I was troubled with chronic ca tarrh, and gathering in bead ; was deaf at times, had discharges from ears, unable to breathe through nose. Before the second bottle of Ely's Cream Balm was exhausted, I was cured. C. J. Corbin. 923 Chest- nut Street, Philadelphia, Pa. eralcl Individualism in Politics. Mr. Herbert Spencer, in declining to become a candidate for the House of Commons, has called attention to what may be perhaps a defect in our present political methods. He be lieves that that the person chosen to represent a political constituency should be absolutely master of him self; that by his votes and speeches he should follow out the course which seemed to him best, irrespect ive of whether this course is approv ed by those whom he represents or not. In one way Mr. Spencer is quite right. The tendency of our times is to limit the freedom of ac tion of the individual. A man is elected not te do what he considers is for the best interests of the coun try, but to follow out a certain line of party policy, which he may scarcely believe is detrimental to the country. In this way we never ob tain from our public men the best service they are capable of perform ing. They will always feel upon them the constraint of their constit uents, and will content themselves with keeping within the well-defined lines of party policy. On the other hand, the theery of individualism of personally adopting what may seem to be right opinions and follow ing these to their logical conclusions, independent of the wishes of those whom one represents, and of the needs of party as well can hardly fail to exercise a demoralizing effect in a representative lorm ot govern ment. Control in these govern ments is vested in parties, and where no two will think and act alike it is impossible to construct a well organized party of any dimen sions greater than one man. the obstacle that the liberals on the con tinent of Europe have encountered hag eeme from the tact ot their ex cessive independence, iuacn indi vidual has had a pet theory of gov ernment which he wishes to see era- bodied in the organic laws of hisj country, and has been so completely logical in the support of his plan that he has consistently opposed the suggestions and plans ot others. Such a method might serve admira bly if a man happened to be an au tocrat, but if he is only one of a large number of people, all of whom are quite as important as he is in de termining the scope of legislation, the willingness to yield, and the readiness to discover points of simi larity in the various plans suggested, are necessary features of practical statesmanship. Mr. Spencer is prob ably quite right in thinking that be would not succeed in public lite, a fact due chiefly to his indisposition to think very highly of the views put forward by others. Boston Her ald. Durability of Bank of England Notes. The album in which specimens of the various counterfeits discovered are preserved, also contains some in teresting proof of the extraordinary durability of the note9. There are three notes for twentv-five pounds which passed through the Chicago fire, and were sent in for redemption by Mr. R. II. Nottin, paymaster of the Chicago and Alton Railway. Though they are burnt to a crisp black ash, the paper is scarcely bro ken, and the engraving is as clear as in a new note. There are also five five-pound notes which went to the bottom of the sea in the unfortunate training ship Eurydice.and were re covered after six month's immersian. They are not even frayed. The pa per is stained a light brown, and that is the only effect their long ex posure to salt water has had. We were shown in a small case covered with a magnifying glass a few char red fragments of paper for which the bank paid 1400. They are the remains of several notes destroyed in a fire, and were redeemed at their full value, the holders being able to give their numbers and dates, and to satisfy the bank that they had actu ally been destroyed. There is anoth er note in tne album whicn was in circulation 125 years before it was returned to the bank for payment. No note is issued twice. As soon as a note is returned, even though it has been out but a few hours, it is cancelled. Very often a note issued in the morning is brought back to the bank in the afternoon of the same day, but on an average a five pound note is out about eighty days The notes have many strange ad ventures. One of a large denomina tion was found keeping the wind away in the broken pane of a cottage window, neither the cottager nor his wife having anv idea of its value. Another, also for a large sum, the disappearance of which had 1h1 to many wrongful suspicions and accu ations, was discovered, after many vears, inclosed in the wall of the house from which it had mysterious ly disappeared. One thing the notes will not endure. Thev will hold to gether at the bottom of the sea, and come out of a furnace intact, but they will not outlast the scrubbing. the bleaching, and the mangling of the laundry. That trial, to which they are often subjected through the inadvertence of ladies who send them to the wash in their dress pock ets, usually defaces them, though even after it their genuineness is still recognizable.

His idea is to adapt to ocean navigation, oa a more acute and longer scale, tbe idea which models the North river steamers and the ferry-boata of the East river. It is that of having virtually two hulls, a lower and an upper, the lower and the centre to be deep, long, narrow, and at the bows very sharp, reduc ing the angle forward by the line of tbe bows where they cut the water with the line of the vessel's motion from 1 to 15 degrees as now, to even 3 degrees. The lower hull will thus preserve a width from stem to stern of only a third the width of the up per hull, and the latter will either be out ot water, or, when the vessel is deeply laden, will barely rest upon the water. He estimates that a ves sel of 12,000 tons as compared with the newest fast steamers, with 10,000 horse-power, 1,200 feet immersed cross-section, and running twenty knots per hour in calm water, would show a speed of "2 knots and prob ably 35 knots. It follows that such a vessel could cross the ocean, in calm water, from New York to Eu repe, in about four days. This is by no means an extravagant supposi tion, as the fineness of the lines is out of comparison with the usual lines in fast steamers, and can be compared only with those ef some fine race boats renowned for their speed, and built either shallow and wide or narrow and deep, ihe new type partaking of both these princi ples and carrying them to the ut most. It is possible experience might show that the shape of the prow will cause such a vessel to be much less influenced by rough weather than the ordinary shape. The ocean-traveling public weuld gladly welcome the day when M. Se billot's new rapid-transit idea shall become a tact. Hartford I o.it. Tli Production of Caiuh.r. The distillation of the camphor of commerce irom cinnnmonnm earn phora. Ft., Nees et Eb., is a most hazardous trade, tbe distillers hav ing to be constantly on the alert far fear of attack bv the aborigines, who are naturally opposed to the contin ual encroachment into their territo ry for the purpose of cutting down the trees for extracting the camphor. No young trees are planted to re place tbose cut down, nor do the of ficials take any cognizance of the diminution which is being surely effected in the supply of a valuable commercial article. The stills are described aa being of a very simple construction, and are built upon a shed in such a manner that they can ne moved as tne Chinese ad vance into the interior. A lone wooden trough, coated with clay and half filled with water, is placed over eight or ten furnaces ; on the trough boards pierced with holes are fitted, and on these boards are plac ed jars containing the camnhor- wood chips, the whole being sur mounted by inverted earthenware Eots, and the joints made air-tight y filling them up with hem. When the furnaces are lit the steam passes through the pierced boards, and sat urating the chips causes the subli mated camphor to settle in crystals on the inside of the pots, from whieh it is scraped ori and afterward refin ed. During the summer months the camphor often loses as much as twenty per cent, on its way from the producing districts to the port of shipment. Xature. A Story of Thad. Stevr.n A Virginian named Edmonston was one day walking down Pennsyl vania avenue, Washington, with J. M. Curry, then a Congressman. Mr. Edmonston was much excited about a remark he had traced to Mr. Ste vens. and threatened to insult him on sight. Mr. Curry tried to ap pease him. but did not altogether succeed. Soon afterwards Edmon ston descried Thaddeus Stevens just ahead on the avenue, and, his wrath returniug. said : " There goes the dashed old rascal now ; I an going to confront him." Before his com panion could prevent, Edmonston had accosted the enemy. Halting the Pennsylvania statesman, the fiery Virginian ejaculated : " Mr. Stevens, sir, I heard that you insult ed my State." The grim old man, with a malicious twinkle in his eyes responded: "Oh, no; I think not, Mr. Edmonston. but what did I say offensively?" Edmonston re joined: "You said, sir, that John Brawn could have captured Virgin ia with 3-5 men." Hardly suppress ing a laugh, his wicked eyes glim mering more maliciously, Thad. Stevens, in a snarp tone, sad : "You have got it wrong, Mr. Edmonston, frightfully wrong! I did not say that John Brown could have captured Virginia with 35 men ; I put it at 75 men, sir 75 men." Edmonston was struck dumb with amazement and fell back, as old Thad. hobbled up Pennsylvania avenue, chuckling and grinning. Choice Roses. Those who have choice roses often desire a few extra ones, either to be stow upon friends, or to use in en larging their flower garden. In or der to secure good strong plants, it is only necessary to select ripe shoots, well branched near the ground ("preferring these limbs that if cnt off would make a nice bushy plant) and with a sharp knife, hack or notch the under side so that bent it eomes in contact with the soil. These notches should be five in number, through to the heart or pitch. Now bend the limb down, and with the knife slit the limbs one and a half inches up towards the end of the too. iust below tbe notches, and be careful not to break La KmK AAvas vwrst lasliss in tK . sandy sail, and lay a briek or stone sYs.rittn fcaenit down. Keen the The Shotgna Policy in Georgia. Two men were standing at the gate of a country larai yard whit tling sticks and giving each other dots about managing women. "Talk sassy to "eu," the man on the out side of the fence said, " an' ye'll see how they'll be fetched down." Just then the cabin door opened, and a red-headed, long-necked wo man yelled : Say, 'Zeke. ther flour s out !" "Out whar?" hovelled back. "Out'nthe bar'l," she answered. " vVall, put it back an' cover it up tighter," he replied, while the out side man grinned. " Don't yoa see how she's ducked a' ready?" he laughed, when the fiery topknot disappeared. " I does," spoke the elated victor. Presently the same shrill voice cried : " Zeke, I'se gwine over to mar's, an' ef ye think ther measles air ketchin', 111 leave ther baby hyar." " Dunno whether they's kutchiu' er not," replied the husband. " I've never seed 'em ketch any thing." Again the head was drawn back, amid applause from the outside. The next time the door opened the muzzle of a shotgun was poked out and a bead drawn on the sauev man. " Zeke," came the solemn voice. " Melindy," he gasped, looking in vain for some place to dodge. " Zeke," she continued, " ther flour's out." "All right, I'm ef! ter the mill at once," he answered, shiveringly. " Zeke, I'm gwine over ter niAr' fer a spHl ; d'ye think the meaeles is ketchin'?" " No, Melindy, I seed pap ter day. an' he sed the chillunz waz all well." " Kerrect," she said, lowering tl.. gun, " I'm off. Ye can sorter clea;i up the place till I get back, but be shore ter stay inaide while I'm gone." All right, he answered meekly, moving aside to let her pais. At lanta Constitution.

How he Drposrtl a Chief. Governor McCook once caused the deposition of a Tte chief nam sd Colorow, in the following man ner : During his administration, Colo row and a band of Utes came to a post town and camped on the out skirts. One day the chief sent word that he wanted a new tent. Mc Cook dispatched an agent to se what condition Colorow' stent was in; the report was that he did i.ot need a new tent, and McCook ac cordingly refused. In the afterm-jon, while the Governor was in his of fice. Colorow came in half drunk, with a revolver in his hand, and going over where McCook w:h writing sat "down. The Governor took in the situation at a glance, but did not look up. "McCook liar!" said Colorow. The Governor went on writing. "McCook damn liar!" repeated the chief. Still McCook continued writing. "McCook G dam liar !"' said Col orow, reaching a climax. Never the less McCook would nut look at him. By this time Colerew had conclud ed there was no right in the Govern or and allowed the hand holding the revolver to drop at his side. The move was a bad one. In an instant McCook seized his wri.-t, knocked the weapon away from him, and catching the astonished savage by the neck, kicked hi:n down stairs and inta the street, where a number of I'tes were st,irnllr:g about. With great tact. McCook pointed to the prostrate and humilating form of Colorow, and turning to the I "te said: "Colorow an old woman. Get a man for chief." Then, turning on his heei. he walked upstairs. The next day the mortified I'tes deposed Colorow. er Give l"p.
