IT WAS A NOVEL.
" He will never mary you! "
A pair of "tartlwl eyes, brown and Irau
tirul, uid pair of gray ones, hard and
cold, met, and Ix Caxton and her trtep-
mother wore mut unity silent The latter
aaw that her blow had told indeed upon
the heart of the cirL but only a flashing
red ujwn the oval cheek betrayed the cru
elty of the pword-tbnist. ;
"If vou think," continued Mrs. Caxton,
that you are poiruz tope from my con
trxI by marrying Mr. I tan ton, you are
very much mistaken. He will never
marry vou. Men like him look higher
for a wife,"
Where Dr. Itanton could haw Heart-lied
to find a purer, aweeter.or preUier girl, it
would 1 hard to my. Her stepmother
knew that the pale rfoction of the girl's
face had won her favor in the eyes of the
Rimroer boarder; but more than that she
would not admit.
Dr. Danton was a rich city gentleman.
If he chow to Bend a few quiet weeks in
RciHeville, and meanwhile pay a few com
pliment to Lea, it was nonisenne that the
girl's bead should be turnexi. More, she
was not willing that her step-daughter,
whom she had rebuked and thwarted
from her infancy, should meet with ny
audi windfall of fortune as a rich husband
thus making her independent of her.
"Vou needn't hurry to finish your
drexB," said Mrs. Caxton, with sarcasm.
It wont make any difference whether
you wear blue or w hite for the picnic."
Then pretty ljea. rone, shook out the
fleecy folds of the arure skirt she w as at
work on and went upstairs. In her
chamber she w as at hast free from insult
But she coul I not sew. She hung up the
beautiful dress she had been hurrying to
complete, and, throwing herself upon the
lounge, covered her face with her hands,
and a few hot tears trickled between her
finp-rs.
Meanwhile, a gentleman, with a fair
beard and a very dint-t joiir of blue eyes
was walking in the garden and casting
glances at the south piazza, where Lea
generally sat w ith hersewing in the pleas
ant autumn days. Her dog lay there
her canary sang there ; but she was not
to be seen.
He threw himself upon a rustic seat at
last, and, uncovering his shapely head in
the shadow of the leafy locust tree, sat
crushing his soft felt hat in his hands, ev
idently lost in thought not unpleasant
thought. Now, Mrs. Caxton, in spite of
her assured words, was not altogether se
cure in her own mind regarding Ir. Dun
ton's intentions. A desire to be so made
her walk that way, w ith a black lace
scarf about her head.
" Good afternoon, Dr. Danton. Are
you going to the picnic?"
" If Lea goes," was the composed re
pjtonse. In fact the gentleman had so much
the air of a man w ho know s his own
mind that Mrs. Caxton was at a loss, how
to proceed. The former, however, cut the
interview short by saying :
" If Lea is at leisnre, Mrs. Caxton, I
w ish you would ask her to come into the
garden for a little while."
Now, Lea, when summoned, was very
loth to oUy, and when she came down
the box-lined jKith and Dr. Danton rose
to receive her there was a st range restraint
in her manner.
You w islied to see me? " she asked in
a constrained voice.
" Certainly I did. I al ways w ant to see
as much of you as possible ; and as your
stejwnother said you were at leisure I
thought you had better oinc out in the
sunshine."
There was no resjKinsive smile and
blush. Lea's fine black brows contracte.1,
and the young man was -surprised.
" He considers me a plaything for his
leisure," thought Iea and w as silent,
I5ut at 19 this girl was not stoical
enough to resist a man like Ir. DanU.j
w hen he chose to be winning, and now
he chose to lie very w inning indeed.
Lea's coldness melted lieneath the air of
chivalrous tenderness with which he de
voted himself to her entertainment ; and
soon the old pleasant light was in her
eyes and a smile on her lips.
She laid her hand on his arm and down
the lane they strolled, breathing the
balmy air and gathering asters and gold
en rod ; and when Ir. Danton brought
her back as the dew began to fall, and
kissed her slender hands at the porch
door, she stole up to her chamber with
her flowers and her dreams.
No, it did not matter what she wore at
the picnic.
When she was almost ready she ran
down in the garden f r a few flowers. As
she gathered a knot of gold and blue pan
siest a bit of crushed pajer attracted her
attention. She picked it up. There was
writing upon it and she read it,
" is very pretty, with a rarely fair
complexion and silky-black hair. You
have no idea how charming in pale blue
of colr so trying to raven-haired wo
men, but of course I intend nothing seri
ous; she is only a country girl, but she is
charming!"
The chirjgraphy was Dr. Dau ton's.
For a moment Lea stood bewildered.
The guy beds of pnsies anil pi tun Lis
reeled before her eye ; she sat down
upon a rustic bench.
" What is the matter with you, Lea?"
said her mother's sharp voice.
It is just as you said," wailed poor
Lea in her misery. "He does not care
forme he is only triflini:."
Mrs. Caxton read the pujierand smiled.
The sunlight glowed in the pretty
apartment, the bees hung buzzing over
the flowers of the window vine, the busy
sounds of cheerful life came in at the
window; but to Lea it seemed as if the
world had suddenly stopped.
At sunset her stepmother came to her
with a eup of tea and sat down bv her
bed.
" I ho this will be a lesson to you,
Lea," she lcgan.
"Oh, I never want to see him again,"
she cried. I would die if I could ! But
I must go while he stays here. You will
be willing, wont you?"
If you will try to be more docile in
Uie future. Lea, you may make s visit to
your Uncle Henry's."
May I go to-morrow?" said Lea.
"Yes. Remember I am being very in
dulgent to you, Lea, and hope you will be
grateful."
In the night the girl's agony found re
lief in a flood of tears. Tale and tired
she knotted up bur braids before a mir
ror in the morning. If it could 1 belli
ed, she would not t-e Mr. Danton again. 1
Her step mother could tell him tliat she
was ilL When Dr. Danton had gone for
the mail she went down stairs.
"Go this numiing!" said Mrs. Caxton,
in surprise, " Well, I dont care. You
can harness old Pharaoh and drive over,
and if you stay more than a week I'll
send you some tilings."
Down the shady lane, drawing the top
buggy, trotted old Pharaoh. Lea was
crying. Oh bhe was so louely and sad !
The brightnefW around her was mocking.
At the end of the long lane she and Dr.
Danton had stopped in their walk the
(light before, and a few flowers he had
forgotten were fading upon the stone
wall. Let rememlered bow he had put
tliem down to fold her shawl more close
ly about her, and with strange contradic
tion of feeling she stopped the horse,
sprang out of Uie 'buggy, and took np the
Jimp, still fragrant things. Then htr j
lips parted in a little cry, for Dr. Danton
rose from the grass on the other side of
the wall, where he hail been sitting.
" What does this mean, Lea? " he said
composedly. "Why are you running
awav from me ? "
Turning red and pale, Lea looked up
into a fat so grave, so gentle, and so full
of concern for her evident grief that all
restraint vanished.
"To be so kind all summer to take
care of me and jiet me and then to write
such letters; oh, did you think lieeaune I
wasa little country girl I had no feeling?"
aoMied Lea.
" Lea, my darling ! what is all this ? "
asked Dr, Denton.
She told him ; she showed him the bits
of writing.
" It is yours ; there is no mistake," she
cried.
" Yest, it is mine. Lea. Now, listen !
In my summer's rest and leisure I have
indulged myself in writing a novel, which
is to le published next year. This is a
scrap ol discarded manuscript, l unu,
has this mistake really grieved you ? Do
vou love me? I love j-ou dearly, Lea;
will you be my wife?"
Not long after Mrs. Caxton w as aston
ished to see Dr. Danton driving old
Pharaoh into the yard. He sprang out
and assisted Lea to alight-
" Lea and I are engaged, and I have
begged her not to leave home just at pres
ent," he said.
" Uniph 1 then he will marry her ! "
said Mrs. Caxton to herself.
And he did.
The Change of Climate in Egypt
The New York Tribunrpves the follow
ing in relation to recent remarkable cli
matic changes in Egypt :
The prevalence of typhoid and other
forms of malarial fever at Cairo during
the past months tends to complete the
ruin of the reputation of the Egyptian
capital as a winter resort for invalids.
Within the last few years Uie climate of
the Nile Delta has entirely changed, and
whereas until 187S such a thing as rain
was entirely unknown at Cairo, there is
nowadays one perpetual and almost trop
ieal downpour, which eonimences in No
vember anil lasts until March. Not only
this but two years ago there was actually
a snowfall at Suez on the banks of the
lied Sea, w hich astonished and frighten
ed the natives. The atmospheric changes
are sometimes attributed to the existence
of Uie Suez Canal and of the Sweet Wa
ter Canal, and are naturally causing a com
plete revolution in the construction of
houses and mode of life. The entire
roofs have had to be rendered water tight,
fireplaces and stoves installed in all the
rooms instead of the oil time braziers,
and even the unfortunate fellah is on the
lookout for some more resisting material
than the dried mud w hich he has hither
to used to build his hovel.
A much more serious result however, is
the growing unhealthiness of the place.
The Cairo of to-day is built on the ruins
of some eight or ten defunct cities which
have in turn preceded it during the cen
turies. It is perched on the top of a sort
of plateau formed by some sixty feet of
detritus of all kinds. Potsherds, w icker
work, cinder, scraps of metal, bits of tile,
ami heaven only knows what else be- j
sides, constitute the substrata of the city.
Now as long as there was no regular rain
fall, no ill effects were experienced, for
the annual inundation of the Nile merely
affected the immediate vicinity of the riv
er banks. But the climatic changes, have
altered all this. The heavy rain, which j
falls day after day during the winter
mouths, regularly soaks through this det
ritus and in fact renders it nothing
more or leas than a heap of wet garbage.
Every night a den gray mist may le ob
served rising up from the ground, and
shrouding the city to which, strange to
say, invalids are sent in search of health.
Moreover the moisture in conjunction
with the detritus produces, sort of chem
ical substance which sups and literally
eats away the foundations of all the old
buildings. In a few years the intmpar
able tombs of the Caliphs and of the
Mamelukes with all their delicate tracery
and emblems of the most glorious period
of Saracenic Art will have disapjeared,
and very serious fears are entertained
about Uie existence of the grand old
Mosque of Sultan Hassan, Uie principal
Basilica, if so it may tie termed, of the
Mahometan religion.
Astonishing Success.
It is the duty of every jiernon who has j
used B'turlut't German Syrup to let its
wonderful qualities le known to their
friends in curing Consumption, severe
Coughs, Croup, Asthma, Pneumonia, and
in fact all throat and lung diseases. No
person can use it without immediate re
lief. Three doses will relieve any case,
and we consider it the duty of all Drug
gists to recommend it to the poor, dying
consumptive, at least to try one bottle, as
S0,()00 dozen lottles were sold last year,
and no one case where it failed was re
jxirted. Such a medicine as the Uenmu

Nature's Provision.
In a conversation drifting toward the
many wise provisions of nature, the liev.
Mr. Machel said : " The other day, in my
intellectual excursions, I came across a
wonderfelly sensible jiaper treating of the
snakes. The long black snake is esjec
ially useful. He goes into the dense
swumps, worms himself among the reek
and flags ami devours thousands of scor
pions, and lizards, which, without his
timely interference, would become too
numerous. So, you see, everything, even
the black snake, is useful, being created
for a purjtose."
" That is all very well," one of the rev
erend gentleman's listeners replied. " We
recognize the usefulness of the snake be
cause he devours scorpions and lizards,
but of w hat use, pray tell me, are the
scorpions and lizards ? "
"Thereat innumerable insects," the
minister triumphantly replied.
" All right ; but of what use are the in
sects?" "The insects? Why er they serve as
fod for the lizards."
" Yes ; but of what use are t he lizards ?"
" Why, you must be blind not to see
that they serve as food for the snakes."
"Of course I st that, but that only
brings up the question of what use are
die snakes ?"
" To eat the lizards, I tell you. My
dear sir," the minister added, " It is not
strange that philosophy advances so
slowly, when we think of man's narrow
ness of understanding." Arhuimu Trav

TheYoungManwho Showed Off
The other day a young man about
twenty years of age accompanied by a
girl two or three years younger, reached
Uie city by a Bay City train, and after
looking around for lew hours returned
to the depot and bought some sandwitch
es for lunch. The fellow was heard brag
ging a ptod deal as to what he had done
and could do, and citit he had visited,
and by-and-by be walked up to the de
pot policeman and handed him four five-
cent cigars, and said :
" That 's my girl in there."
"Yes."
" She just thinks her eyes of me,"
"So?"
" I've never had a chance to show her
how I'd die for her if necessary, and it
seems to uie we might put up a little job
right here."
"How?"
" WelL suppose me and her walk out to
see .Uie river. I leave her for a moment.
Some chap comes along and liegins to
chin to her. 1 rush back and knock him
into the middle of next week. She'd
want to marry me wit hin a week. Girls
of her age just dote on heroes, you know."
" Yes, they do."
" Well, vou help me. You pick out
some chap around here and tell him what
I'm up to, and I won't mind standing the
treats for all hands. When I rush in on
him he'd better run."
Five minutes later the girl stood on the
wharf alone. A fellow big enough to
pitch a barrel of flour over a freight car
approached in a careless way and observ
ed:
" Fine day, miss?"
" Yes, sir."
" Nice tjiew of the Canada shore ? "
" Yes, indeed."
"May I offer you some peppermint
loz
Just then the young man came rushing
down. lien tie came wiminien leei oi
the pair he cried out :
" Villain ! take your leave or I'll toss
you into the river! "
" Oh, I guess not," carelessly replied the
other.
" Base scoundred ! I am here to rescue
Uiis young girl from your clutches!"
" Don't bust any buttons off, my young
cub."
The young man made a dash. 1 le had
to or w ilt. He rushed at the big chap
with arm upraised and heroism in his
eye, and the next minute he was picked
up and tossed over among a lot of green
hides as carefully as if he had been glass.
Then the big man raised his cap to the
girl, smiled sweetly as he bowed and
scraped his foot and he was out of sight
before the young man recovered suffi
ciently to call out :
"Minnie, did I kill him?',
t "No, Henry."
' " Thank heaven that I am not guilty
of murder! Let him beware, however.
Another time I may not lie able to re
strain mvself!"
Hard to Construe.
" Look here," said the brekeman, stirr
ing up the sleeping passenger, who was
dozing the miles away while a forbidding
looking dog slumbered quietly at his feet.
" Look here, that dog can't ride in this
car.
" I know he can't," muttered the pas
senger, but he does, doesn't he ? "
" But he can't ride any longer," shout
ed the brakeman.
" Course not," said the paienger, half
opening his eyes in sleepy interest, "full-
grow n dog ; never be any longer than he
is now.
" But he can't ride any more," said the
brakeman, showing signs of irritation.
" Nt ," replied the passenger, ojH-ning
his eyes wide, " he seems to be getting all
the ride the old train can givehiiu now."
" But, roared the brakeman, he won't
ride another mile."
" (an't liet on that," said the jwssenger,
dozing away again ; "Queer dog ; owned
him six years, and never can tell one
minute what he will do the next."
" But he mustn't ride in here," shrieked
the brakeman.
" Course he mustn't," sleepily said the
passenger, " Wife t says every day he
mustn't come into the house, and he just
lives in it."
" Well, by thunder! " roared the brake
man, " he's got to get out of here ! "
" That's wliat book-keejier says at the
Oflice," wearily groaned the sleepy Jias
senger, " and he sleeps under the dtk
when he isn't scratching for ratsunder
the safe and in the waste-basket."
Then the brakeman got mad and went
to the conductor. " There's a man in
here got a dog with him," he said, " ami
I taut make him budge out of the car
with it."
"Oh, that sleepy old duffer in the
Pennsylvania coach?" said the conduc
tor. "I tried him myself and he wore
out the imperative mood of all the verlw
in the grammar on me liefore I got mad
enough to bounce him, and then he went
to sleep. Let him alone. He gets off at
the next station, and I'm going to run
him by iilwmt seventy miles."
Buffalo Bones.
A few years ago when buffaloes were
more plentiful tin the great Western
plains than they are to-day or ever will
lie again, they w -re ruthlessly slaughtered
by un-sportsmean-like hunters, who gain
ed the name of '; skin-strippers," since
their only motive in slaying the lieasts
was to secure their hides. There was al
ways a great and steady demand for bnf
falo robes, and the " skin-strippers " found
their on-irjiation profitable as it was wan
ton and unjustifiable. It is hardly un
necessary to say that the business of skin
ning buffaloes could not prove profitable
at the present time. It will never again
be possible for the enterprising "skin
strippers" to sweep down upon enormous
herds of these noble, though ungainly
creatures and slaughter them by the
score, leaving their skin-denuded car
casses to rot upon the plains, or furnish
food for the wolves and coyotes. Realiz
ing this fact, the "skin-stripjiers" have
taken up a new and less exciting occuia
tion, and are now known as " bone-hunters."
That the gathering of buffalo bones is
a recognized industry is easily proved by
the following figuies. During the season
of 1X83-1 there were shipped east over the
line of the Northern Pacific railroad
alone ".Soo tons, or nearly 800 cars of
bones. These bones were brought to va
rious points on the line of the railroad, by
the bone hunters, and were then sold to
the agents of the consumers. They were
at that time worth f 24 a ton on the mar
ket, and paid the railroad company on an
average a little over $ti a ton in freight
charges. They are used chiefly by sugar
refineries, bone black establishments and
carbon works."

own experience. I was playing cards in
Georgia some years ago and became in
volved in a dispute with a native that
jacnt him to the hospital and me to jail.
Tliere wan a strong prejudice aptinct
gambling in the vicinity, and my lawyer
told me tliat I w:t in a very tight fix.
I made the lont of the fiituution, and
nianagwl to get on good tenua with the
BherifT a typical Georgian, and, by the
way, a pretty good fellow. One day I
discovered by accident that he waa a
great fkro bank fiend. It seems that he
hail been quite wealthy at one time, but
luid lost about all his property against
the gaum, and would walk ten miles
tluough a swamp to play. That just
suited me. I chalked out a lay out on
my floor, got an old deck of cards and
dealt faro for him.
"We used buttons for chips, and
he would squat outside my grated door.
and tell me where to place his bets.
In a few days I had all his ready cash
Then ho sold a mule and lost that. It is
too tedious to tell in detail, but head by
head his stock all vanished. Then he
put up his watch and chain and a suit of
clothes. I won them and made him
poke them through the grates. In a
week my cell looked' like a country
store. I hud lxxts, hams, a pair of scales
and the sheritFs ottice stationery a bur
rel of Hour, a saddle and a featherbed
At last he came in and said :
" John. I'll tell what I'll do, You
have won everything I can move, except
the kills and the old woman, and now
I'll play j'ou a came of seven-up for all I
have lost agaist your liberty
"It's a go."
"We ulaved through the grates. I
tell vou it was exciting. It was neck
or nothing with me, and you could
hear the old sheriff breathe clear over
in the next lot. We got six apiece
and it came my deal. I turned uj
jack."
"That puts you out," said the sheriff
unlocking the door. " Xow get out."
"He claimed that the conditions of
the game did not bar him from taking a
shot at me, ami I as went over the fence
he let offa young cannon in my direction
I guess though that the last jack made
him nervous, for the load went over my
head and crippled adarkey in a cornfield
I didn't stop to inquire how badly he was
hurt."

A Slight Compensation.
Mrs. 15.lnter lost two husbands within a
year; the first died a natural death, and
the other was killed in a railroad acci
dent six months later. Very naturally
the doubly liereaved woman was pros
trated by grief and her jiastor went U her.
'This isasad, sad blow, Sister Bolster,"
he said tenderly, as he took her hand.
" It's it's almost too ti too ninch
to bear,' she soblied. " Yes, yes, sister;
but the Ixrd tempers the wind to the
shorn lamb, and he sends no nfiliction
for which he does n t in some ay com
pensate the sufferer."
" I know, I know," she said brighten
ing a little, " and in iny case I find that
the mourning I bought to wear for George
will do for Henry ; latt I can't help
weeping while my sorrow is fresh, for
Henry did give promise of Wing such a
comfort," and the stricken woman broke
down again.
A Good Endorsement.
Dr. tieo. W. .Miller, of Clurkson, X. Y,
uii'ierdnte of May 21, 1SS:5, writes : "After
several months eXH-rience in prescribing
(iilinore's Aromatic Wine, I find it very
iKuieficial as h tnic nn aptietizer follow

best tonic and vitalizer known for men,
