She was a Miss Pryce o' London; but through knowing o' ber so Intimate like, we always called her by her given name. Miss Noe. She was at home with the children, you aee; and my mlsaiis was fonder of her than of any other folks as ever took our lotleln-s, same as she might be of your good lndy, sir, begging your par don. She was a fine built young wom an, too, was Miss Noe. Bee her clam ber up the rocks, you'd say she was a goat; see her swim agin the waves, you'd say she was a seal; see her tell the little ones stories by the rocks at nights, you'd say she was one o' tiiese book writers, as it might be yourself, lr. Fine upstanding young lady, too, with a color In her cheek and a spring la her step, walking free across Mull y moors the same as If they belonged to her. Well, It wasn't onj before we per ceived Miss Noe waa pretty good friends with a gentleman up to Brown'a Mr. Moore from Exeter. He was a nice young doctor come to Kynance for hla holiday; and when them two went out walking together, with her father and mother hanging about like for com pany, as is the way with parents, a finer young couple you'd never set eyes on. At the end of a fortnight my wife ays to me, "Tom," says she, "It ain't 'Mr. Moore' no more with our young lady; It's plain Alex, this morning. His name being Alexander, It was Alex, for Short, as is the new fashion now, though when I was young it was all Alio or else Bandy. "An' a good thing, too," says I. "For a young lady like Miss Xoe had ought to marry one as li her natural equal," ays I; not meaning in birth alone, as as a thing I don't hold with; nor yet In money, as there ain't no Counting upon; bnt a fine upstanding young lady, to rr m''"! p- r-ps to 'o msrrip'l to ? ne young fellow. Or Vhere'd tha country get Its soldiers and sailors from?" "And handsome couple they'll make," ays my missus, being fond of Miss Noe. Well, one of the days, Mr. Moore that's Alex. be went out swimming off the rocks by the cove; and Miss Noe, Bhe was ashore sitting high on the cliff, reading a book or something.

"An' do you propose to compensate me?" It flashed right across me what he meant "Bill, you blackguard," says I, "do you mean to tell mo and a man there a-drowndlng? Have you no com mon humanity," aays I, bristling up, 'that you'd think of five pound afore a fellow creature?" 'Five pound Is a good bit better nor thirty bob," says BUI, looking up at me, sullen-like. "Well, sir, I'll say it to your face, though your own father Is a County Councilor, I always thought that one as bad a law as the county could make.

"Bill-o-my-oul," says I, raising my sweep, being that angry with the man that I'd have knocked him over the head as soon aa I would a rat, "will you row, or shall I brain you?" Jnst at that minute my eyes went towards the shore; and if there wasn't Miss Noe, not wringing her hands now, but plunging Into the sea, clothes and all though a lady with skirts an' swimming for dear life out to the boat to help me. I up with my voice an' shouts; "Come along. Miss Noe! You puts the men to shame! Blessings on you for a brave girl!" She was swimming that splen did! Well, I rows towards her, and helps her aboard Into the boat; and in abe Jumps, all dripping, but taking no more notice of It bless you, than if water was a feather bed to her. And shs seizes the oar BlU-o'-my-soul wouldn't work; and she cries out to me, agonized like: "Row on, Cap'n "'OoUey, for heav en's sake, row on; Alex, ia a-drowndlng!" Well, I wasn't going to carry a super cargo, aa you may say, to weight the boat, not yet a passenger for nothing. Bo, to lighten the burden, I Just ups with Blll-o'-my-soul and I clasps un round the waist, being a older man nor him, but, heaven be praised, a strong one. He waa took by surprise too much to struggle. An' I heaves an over afore he knowed where be was, and makes a Jonah of him. He come up spluttering, being the worst swimmer for s sea faring men as ever I met with. "There," says I, hitting out at him with the blade o my sweep; "see how yon like it yourself," saya L "There's 8 a-goln' beggin' for whoever pulls out your ugly corpse, for nobody ain't going to trou ble about you living."

Well, he was dons np for swim ming through sot having another kick left la him, as you may ssy, but he was able to float on his back and might have floated sa hour mors, mayhap, if so be ss ths chill of ths water didn't numb him and send him to ths bottom. They come op to him snd palled un in. I could see them s-pulllng of him, but whether It was thirty bob or Ave pounds' worth I couldn't rightly maks out for certain. "Ia It alive or dead?" saya ths young lady. "Well," aays I, "he d look rather limp," saya I, "as la natural when you've been lying so long in the water. But I think If a alive. Anyhow, we'd bettor row back and get your things dried, miss." "O, no," says she, crying. "I can't go back till I know. Cap'n 'Ooolley ,1 saya she, "we must row os and meet them."

Btlll, this being a matter o' life and death, whet anch things can't be al lowed to count I rows on to meet them. About a hundred yards off I stands up and shouts so as ahe shouldn't un derstand, "Is It a five-pound Job, mate, or a thirty-bobber?" And the young gentleman himself lifts himself up In reply, with one of the fishermen's jerseys on an' a sail wrap ped round un, and be shouts at the top of hla voice, wftving his hand, "Alive, alive, Noe!" I wanted to turn then, but bless you, there wasn't no keeping back that young lady. Afore I knowed where I was st the sound of his voice, she's stood up in the boat and Jumped off the seat and was swimming for dear lifo again to the sailing boat where ber young gentleman waa a-sltting. Hs was most dead when she got there. He'd Just had strength o' mind to hold up till he could shout to her, snd then ha falls back numb-like and white as death, till they gets him ashore again. There Blll-o'-my-soul was stand ing, spluttering and shivering, looking blue with cold, and aaylng as how I'd done hlra out o' Ave pounds, or anyways thirty shillings, through throwing of him overboard. They took the young gentleman up to his lodgings and gave him the regular thing hot blankets as' such an' brandy an' by the end o the day he was pretty well right again. But the young lady, she didn't so much as ketch s cold with It an' afore they left this place him and her was married.

Cassell's Magazine. PIQ BEATS A TROTTER. Calcaao Packer Said to Have Bees the Victim. A story, far too good to keep, la go Ing the rounds of select circles in the Stock yards, having for its hero no leas a personage than the proprletoi of one of the largest packing plants in Chicago. This gentleman la an enthu siast over horseflesh, and Is afflicted with a belief epidemic among horse men that his particular bit of horse flesh Is faster than any similar bit on earth. A few days ago, while this gen tleman was driving along a country road near Chicago, he had a brush with a farmer who had an antiquated nag, evidently once a trotter. Of course the packer's animal outstripped the farmer's and the packer descended to teasing the hayseed on the quality of his stock. Thia angered the old man and he in dignantly offered to bet the million aire $50 that he had a pig on his farm that could go a quarter of a mile In faster time than the trotter which the packer was driving. The owner of the trotter was game, and no time was lost in concluding the arrangement, the date for the trial being Bet for two weeks ahead. The fanner select ed a long, lean razorback shots and placed it in a pen at one end of a lane a little more than a quarter of a mile n length. He Instructed bis hired man jto feed ths animal but once a day and jthat sparingly, the pall of feed to be set at ths opposite end of ths lane from the peu In which ths pig was con fined. When feeding time came about (the hired man would retire to the far ther end of the lane and call "s-o-o-o-ul, a-o-o-o-ul," snd st the same time the fanner wouldVopen the gate to the pen and ths pig would make a dash for the food. This was kept up for the en tire two weeks that elapsed before the day of ths trial snd after each trial. In wh'ch the farmer held a watch, a broad grin would spread over his face as he noted ths time. One Sunday morning the packer ap peared os the scene with hla horse, agreeable to appointment, confident of defeating the fanner and winning the $50. Ths pig had not been fed for twenty-four hours, and his squeals (were terrific. The packer took his po sition beside the pen whip In hand ready to start his horse at the signal. (Ths hired man placed himself st the lower snd of ths lane with the custo mary allowance of swill and began his calling. As the signal for starting was given the farmer threw open the gate to the pea and horse and pig started neck and neck for the other end of the lane. For ths first furlong the horse had the beat of the argument, but from that on the pig slowly gained on him and in the last hundred yards headed him and reached the pall a good ten yards the winner of the race. The packer paid his $50 without a murmur and then bought the speedy pig from the farmer at a good round price. Not Bis Bank.

Philip is a youngster of some years. Us Is of a contemplative turn of mind, and often makes observations that show he has been thinking deeply upon some topic. The other evening he was sitting on the front porch of his home, barelegged and barefooted. The mos quitoes were active and aggressive. One big fellow landed on a soft portion of the boy's leg. It did not proceed at ouce to work, but seemed trying ts de ride on a good place to begin. Philip did not brush him off, but sat observ ing him. Presently the boy made thia remark to his mother: "Mamma, I guess the mosqults Is ask ing a blessing before he begins to eat" Philip had been hearing a good deal In hla Sunday school class about temp tation and the evil of yielding to It The other morning his mother was cooking doughnuts. He spied s small, round piece of the sweet dough, and, looking at It longingly, said: "Please give me that little piece, mamma. Just for a temptation." Chi cago Record. A Dosr with a Wooden !.

Boze himself seemed to think life was worth living, and in three or four weeks he was up and about But his rait was wabbly, and Mr. Garrett set to work and made a wooden leg to straighten him up. He whittled and scraped and polished it and fastened it to Boze with a clever arrangement f straps.

They take the kernels from the nuts of the csndle tree and wash and string them on the rib of a palm leaf. The first or top ker nel Is then lighted. All of the kernel are of the same size and substance, and each will burn a certain number of minutes and then set Are to the one next below.

VERT fact is tbe child of thought Christ lived- all the truth he taught, God mads other men to show us what Is In us. The Christian who worries much, prays too little. As soon ss men see God they begin to see as he sees. Are you building your house on a poor foundation? There is no faith In the prayer that expects no answer. A sinner's life is full of things he tries to hide from himself. A good man'a life Is a voice in which many hear God speak. No matter bow God warns the sinner, he always does It la love. The devil cannot be shut up in the pit while the saloon door Is open. Whoever gets a blessing from God Immediately wants somebody else to have one. The whitest thing in this world is a soul that has been washed In tbe blood of Christ Putting sand In sugar Is no worse than claiming to be a saint and living like a sinner. It ia not hard to believe in Christ when we see his face In the lives of those we love. If every man In the pulpit bad been called of God to preach, the devU would now be on crutches. There la no trouble so bad that we may not get good out of It by talking It over with the Lord. No man can add a cubit to his stature, and yet the world Is kc?t moving by those who are trying to do ft. Every man who has tried It will testify that It Is uphill business trying to live religious without religion. How much better Is the man who will rob by dishonest trade than the one who knocks down his victim with s sandbag? Chioag-o Main Drainage Channel. The great drainage canal at Chicago is conceded to be one of the greatest works of constructive, engineering which have been attempted in this cen tury. Its progress has been watched with keen Interest by sanitarians, en gineers interested la the novel and ef fective machines for removing earth and rock employed In Its construction, and by those who saw in this great sewer a menace to the shipping inter ests of tbe great lakes. Charles 8. Hill, associate editor of Engineering News, has prepared a full history of tha causes which led to the undertaking of the work, a description of the machin ery and methods made use of, snd very full tables of the prices snd costs of every part of tbe work, taken from the actual records of the contractors and engineers. The book la really a reprint sf articles which have appeared in the Engineering News during ' ths yesi past, but with numerous additions snd revisions, which bring It up to date and thus complete a full and accurate account of ths enterprise. This is prac tically the only form In which so much explicit snd trustworthy Information can be obtained. There are over 100 maps and illustrations showing the de vices and plana for executing ths work; a chapter on "Administration" shows the workings of the executive system by which the 8,000 or 9,000 were con trolled, boused and fed, while tha con cluding chapter sums up ths salient features of ths herculean task, which was, aa Mr. HU1 remarks, a problem of how to do work rather than of what work to do. In the appendix the ques tions bearing on ths effect of the work on ths level of ths great lakes are fully discussed, reports of United States en glnssrs, etc., being Included. Tha People of Seville.

It Is ths very general supposition that there is very little of tbe world we live on that has not been explored by geog raphers, and that the very little that yet remains to Investigate Is on the Af rican continent And yet the fact is that about 20,000,000 square miles of this earth's surface is yet a terra Incog nita, one-tenth of which Is on our own continents of North and South Amen lea. The Cosmos, published In Paris, has an article on this subject which gives a synopsis of an address by Mr. Lobley before ths London geographical con gress last month, that brings out this Interesting question very clearly. Mr. Lobley reminds us that, in the first place, toward the middle of the sixteenth century all seas had been traversed by navigators, and that If the maps of the continents were not yet very exact at least their relative posi tions and their general configuration were known. Australia Itself appears on a French map of 1542 under tbe name of Great Java. In the course ot the sixty years Included in tbe last de cade of the fifteenth century and tbe first half of the sixteenth a group of navigators had advanced geographic knowledge in a degree that has never been reached in any other period so short 'Sebastian d'Elano had made bis first voyage around the world; Vasco De Gaaa had doubled the Cape of Good Hope; Christopher Columbus had added the two Americas to tbe map; the voyages of Cabot and Magellan had completed this wonderful list of new discoveries. To-day, outside of the polar regions, we must confess that all the seas have been explored, but this Is far from be ing the case with the land. An Im mense extent Is entirely unknown to us; another, still more considerable, has been only Imperfectly explored; travelers hsvs traveled It, commerce has exploited some of its products, but good maps of it do not exist Finally, only the least part Is well known; geo desy has coveted It with a network of triangles, and the maps of it are com plete even from a topographical stand point After the two polar regions, which have remained inaccessible. Africa is the part of the world of which we have the least information. Notwithstand ing the general scramble among Euro pean nations to divide up and possess the land, they have only a vague Idea of what the continent contains, over 0,500,000 square miles being yet unex plored. After Africa, Australia offers the vastest field to the Investigation of ex plorers; we must remember that even Its seacoast was nst fully explored tm 1M3. Sines that time, at the price of great suffering. It has been crossed from south to north, but no traveler has yet traversed tt from east to west. While ths North American continent has been very well explored, the whole central region of the southern conti nent has not been mapped with any degree of accuracy. Some portions of It have been roamed over by men hunt ing for wood, mines and articles of com merce, but very little la known of the Interior of the continent To sum up, the yet unexplored parts, of the globe cover an area of about 60, 900,000 square kilometers (about 20,000, 000 square miles), approximately divid ed thus: Africa , , Australia , America...... ....... ....

St Nichols 10IS A TVOMAyS STORY. It Should Be of Interest to Every 'Think. 1ns; Woman. Women who reason well know thai no male physician can understandingly treat the complaint known as " female diseases," for no man ever experienced them. This, Lydia E. Pinkham tanght them twenty years ago. when she dis covered in her Vegetable Compound the only suc cessful cure for all those ailments pecu liar to the sex. Many women have v a fatal faith in ' their physician, and not till they can suffer no longer, will they think and act for themselves. The following testimony is straight to the point, and represents the ex perience of hundreds of thousands of now grateful women : " For six years I was a great sufferer from those in ternal weaknesses so prevalent among our sex. After having received treat ment from four physicians of our city, and finding no relief whatever, I con cluded to try Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and it has proved a boon to me.
