I can take you abroad. You will see Italy, study under great artists: far surpass the little I have taught you. And you do not love Kobert Strong! You Jove me. Be true to your own heart! •i have uever said I loved you," was the reply, In a calm voice. "Ami I urn true to iny own heart when I koep faith with Kobert Strong." in vain ho pleaded. White as death, cold in tho hot August air, Lizzie wan firm in her refusal of all ho ofTorod to tempt her. Kobert Strong loved her. With passionate gratitude tilling hor heart, Lizzie had caught eagerly at the hope of repaying him, by a wife's devo tion, for ail he had done for her. When Unities Arnold, asunimor hoarder on the next farm, discovered and developed it decided taste for painting the girl pos sessed, when ho opened to her tho world of poetry, art and literature, lent her books, talked with hor, tho new life seemed only a return to something sic had known before and half forgotten. There was no doubt that, Lizzie had been tho child of purents of culture and refine ment. Iter speeoh, hor movements, ah betrayed it; and alio impressed the young artist at once, as a laily. As she leu childhood behind her, his Interest deep ened into love, but not until he spoke ami asked her to bo his wife, did Lizzie know that her heart had beenu traitor to tier promise, and that she loved Charles Arnold as she hud never lovod ltohert. Not for one second did cho waver; and her lovor left her, convinced at last thli' lib hope had deceived hlni, while Llzz.e turned to her home, exhausted by tl <• constraint she hud put upon herself; hei heart torn by tho separation, but eon slant to her betrothed, novir her ability to make him happy. Sin knew, and she exulted In the knowledge, that she was tho sunlight of the farm house. Mrs. Strong was old, and in frail heattli, depending greatly upon he, adopted child, who gave "hor buck ill fullest measures the loving care be stowed upon her own forlorn childhood ; und to ltobert she was the very oentei of hope, love, happiness—everything that, ruado life of value. And never had his love met such quick recognition, never had Lizzie been so tender, so careful of Ills comfort and pleasure, as in tho week that followed Charles Arnold's departure from the neighbor's farm- It was a dear, u previous recollection to the grateful girl, for there came a day—ah !so soon after— when Kobert Strong was brought to his own door dying of injuries received by a fail in his barn. The trap of tho loft had given way and thrown him violently to the Hoor beneath. A few hours of suffering und then he said, faintly: "Mother:—who will care for mother.' "I will," Lizzie said, quietly, though i: was only uu iron will that held bar,. -rd s. "You will trust her to w , Robert?" win, a look answered her. Speech was v , |.u Lizzie will carry that loo' warm in her heart until the grave opei for her. -She knew iliot ltohert did tra - itor, and over the still, white face, thai was all her weeping eyes saw an lieu, later, sho vowed to bo faithful to h i trust- bite soon found it was no slight burden sin hurl assumed. Mrs. Strong broke down, utterly prostrated by this last soi low. in a life that had been ono of par; ine from ail she loved husband and children—until tills lust prop uud com fort of her old age was taken. The far was given up, neither woman having : r - knowledge or strength to take Kobert ■duee. A tiny cottage was purchase 1 ,ud the money still left from tho sale o. the farm gave tho old lady an income bniely sufficient for necessary food. Then there came hack to her the re ward for the deed of charity that tor. years before had taken the alnishotis waif into her home and heart. Wlthou anv wonderful talent, Ll/.zio had a tut* for art, and Charles Arnold had given he valuable instructions. After many failures In attempts to hp! her pictures she succeeded in obtninim steady work for a large fancy good houe. who sold tho hand-painted ornu mental work, then llrst coming inti fashion. Easter banners, pincushion, bottle-covers, plush tidies, satin und vel vet in a hundred forms did Lizzie orna ment with flowers, birds, buttorlli -. and pretty devices of all kinds. The price would have scarcely supported ln-r ii the city, hut in hor modest homo i; was an addition to the small Income that gave Mrs. Strong every comfort, ami enabled both to live well in their quiet, unpretentious way. A year after Robert Strong died Charles Arnold once more tried to win Lizzie for his wife, and once more failed. It was a haul struggle between love and grati tude; but ono sentence tho lover used wade it easier. He snid : "There is an ulmshouse provided for .destitute old women." And Lizzie answered : ■And for orphaned children. Never will I send to its cold charity tho tomler, loving old w oman who rescued mo." Aa* I a few months afterward, Charles Arnold luauried. But Lizzie's labor of love lasted many years. Mrs. Strong lived to be a very old woman, losing in the last years of her life all her knowl edge of what surrounded her, a para lyzed, Imbecilo weight. But a weight upon hands that never faltered—a heart tha l never turned away. When sin, died, Lizzie inherltodtho cot tage and what income she left, by a will made soon alter Robert's death. There she lives, doing what good •he can. a useful "old maid," as she terms herself, though but little past 30.

His mission Is to secure infant children to bring to Shalom. Tho Shalemites have come lo the conclusion that there is httlo hope of securing adult converts to their faith and have, therefore, set about procuring children. These chil dren they propose to raise in the faith and porpetuato their customs and re ligion. "The children at tho Shalem colony," said the doctor to a "San Francisco • aminer" reporter, "are healthy as any children in the world. A9 thoy get no meat, their blood is clear and their skins are froe from blemish. You don't see any pimply, blotched faces among the Shal eniite babies. No, Indeed; humors o! the skin are unknown. "You seo, our object and our hope is that these babies will grow up strong, clean-blooded men and women, uud in their progeny the bad instincts anil dis orders tliut are tbo natural result of all these centuries of tlesh eating will bo bred out and their chlldten will be God s chosen. For none can know God save they approach 111 m. The source of all selush passions and contention is llesh eating. As our Bible says: •• 'Flesh diet had made man foul from the soles of his feut to the crown of his head.' Nearly all tho people had some ailments—as weak lungs, buck, throat, chost; or lheumatism, catarrh, kidney weakness, prolapsut, decnyod teoth or deaf ears. Yea, tho people smellod so of llesh and biood food thut they could only be compared to a den of wolves or flesh-eating animals. To hide the smell they smoked tobacco or annolnted them selves with various pei fumes. Carnivor ous diet bod reduced man to bo a little more than a carnivorous animal and a lighter in the struggle for life. The people were of four kinds—First, turbu lent and quarrelsome; second, silently selfish; third, hypocritical, smooth tongued, and, fourth, paupers and de pendents. The dependents comprised the vast majority of tho people. "All of these traits have to be eradi cated beforo wo can approach Jehovah, the father of God." "Yes; but did not you yourself write this Ulble?" asked th# scribe. For answer he producod the book. It is almost as largo as a Webster's dic tionary. Ho opened it at the lirst page and pointed to the top of the page, it read : "Book of Jehovah's Kingdom on Earth. Which Containoth Within It the Book of bhalem. All of Which Is Ante-script.

"What does it matter what instrumen ts choeefl to record the word of tho Al mighty?" asked tho doHor.

Those arc cheaper than calves and young eolte. And they may be raised to be of more profit to themselves and the state as too times as mnnv tat tle. "So we take charge of the chll dren.

If tbo demise is to ocr by nat ural ailment the "koonlng of the banshee Is simply measured and pathetic; but If accident or unteward calamity are to be assooiatod with It, then her lamenta tion.* are loud and clamorous.

Many truly bolievo the banshee to be the spirit of some f armor member of the family. In Irhnstcir there is a powerful queen of the banshee.

This is It certain to\p>n of Impending death, and where ft family has not the hardihood among Its fletgncui,* to claim superior possession of u banshee, the "death coach" will pretty generally bo found as its substitute. The weird superstitions concerning the dead are very many. Every twelfth night the dead walk. They sit. too, upon every tile of the house, waiting to he frond from pnrgutory by prayer. The most poteut charm known to those given over, body and soul, to su perstition, is the hand of an unbaptized babe, taken from th# grave in the name of the evil one. The hand of a murderer so taken is also very powerful. The magic or charm of these are in the uu canniest directions. A lightod candle or "splinter" can never be extinguished in sucli a hand; and wherever it is placed at night all near it must sleep tho sleep of the dead until it is taken away.

Lamenting that I could not charge the man with name unknown half as much more for my company aud take him into the box, 1 reported at the show with my daughter, aud was put in the corner chair, noxt to the prince's box, who had no box on tho further sido of him, there being tho gangway and general exit. The prluco's box was draped with Brit ish Hags, und, like all tho boxes, was merely a low, enclosed area in front o{ the audience. Here was tho great-grandson of that Ooorgo 111 who objected to American independence sitting with all his family among tho Americans in Pari.-—un guarded, open, obliging; the chivalry of all good fooling men was awakened foi him and tho pains ho took to see u show lie had often seen before In expression it his feeling for an American calamity. The leading personages of tho show, such us Cody, Buck Taylor and John Burke, were spoken lo by the prince in a democratic way. All the Americans ro.-o when be entered aud stood till to wns seated. It was not snobbery but civilization that made thorn do so, ani. in conformity with tho usuages of othei people that same conformity which some would require in religion and wor ship. aud yet sneer at their countrymen for the simple conformity of politeness. The l'riuee of Wales had with him his sou and natural successor, Prince Albert Victor: three daughters aud his wife Ale tundra. Two ladies, names unknown, came with thoßo. Wales eat by his son, who will probably also be king of England, for Wales is above -13 years old, and Albort Victor is past 25. Tho Prince of Wales is a man of above medium hoight, stoutish, thick oil sted, bearded dark brown, with abundant lialr except on tlw where he is nearly bald, lie has a large suoutlike nose, a rather sybarite face, with large cheeks and lips, tho upper lip especially coarse. I thought, though, h • ho had it covered with hair. His complexion is not very clear, hut not muddy; his eyes are blue aud of a kind, considerate expression, bu: the general expression of his countenance is neutral, or 1 might say foreign, like a stranger who does not pretend to under stand things around him and is merely being entertained, lie looks no more thau h's age, aud looks more respectable by unhung than by Inheritance; ho up uoars a better mau tliau his earthly fea tures would require. I remarked to Jlr. Crawford, who concurred in tho remark, that tho Prince of Wales looked like a rich Gorman banker of Jewish blood in the midst of his congenial family. Tho Semitic expression is pretty dis tinct. Tho eyes of tho prince are those of a man accustomed to reflect upon largo iinancial transactions. His curios ity is not marked. 11' ho looked at any one it was at sotno lady. He was well bred, felt his situation, and was natural and modest. 1 should think lie would weigh 200 pounds. He was dressed in a dark-gray suit und spring overcoat, with suede, hal'-tanned gloves of gray, and carried the remains of a cigar, which ho lighted us soon as ho sat down, at 11 o'clock. In his coat lapel was a hit of colored ribbon or army mark, like tho Loyal Legion ribbon iu America. Curing the performance ho acted tho parental and family part mainly, being tho sole order-giver and prcscriber of tue family's movements. He was brought in by a representative American committee, con sisting of a dentist, an actor aud a news paper letter writer. I did uot see the prince address any re mark to his wife, hut she was ail'abio'and apparently happy and very well pre served, still tall, fairly lleshy for a tall woman, with a clear, rosy skin, good teeth, and red, healthy gums. She seemed more English than her husband, und wore a whitish-gray jacket, a polka dotted dress of black or dark, and bud a large, long foot, Incased in a sort of gaiter hair cloth. Her children were shorter thau she; all wore white jaekets and had long, bowed Jewish noses. The son, who goes by the name of Prince Collars aud Gulfs, wore those articles rather conspicuously and had a iiosotliat was both high bowed aud homely—a nose really round from the bridge to the nos trils ; bis skin was pale* and clear, and be looked liko his mother. Q,ucr Kcntiu-k}' Ceuietvi-it d. A correspondent of tho Washington "Capital" says: "The queerest thing I've seen any where is a Letcher county graveyard. As we drove along the road one day it carried us uround to the toy of a hill and there we ran up against what 1 at lirst thought was an acre lot full of chicken coops. There were twenty-live or thirty of them of various sizes scattered about, each with a pointed roof and either straight or lattice-worked at the side and ends. Each ono was from four to six loot long and three wide and all unpaiuted. "I climbed tho fence to make an in spection and the lirst coop settled tho ease; it was a cemetery and not a hen nery. Some were quite new and some were in a bad state of repair, evidently over the graves of tho husbands and wives of various Letcher county widows and widowers,"out on second,"us it wore. Some of tho graves had tomlistonos of plain sandstone, without Inscriptions, uud some wore only unadorned mounds benculh these odd-looking little coops. "Further aloug I froqueutly saw near farm houses one or more ot these pecu liar grave coverings and thoy were al ways painted white, with occasionally a bit'of blue at tho corners, and often with tho uatno of the deeeasod painted on tho strip, just behind tho eaves.
