"Tenuis all day long, and now a

"Here, mother," answered a culm,

well-to-do married daughter, surveyed
her young Mster critically ns she spoke

" Xora," he says softly.
Tho girl blushes a bright pink, but

tho little hand in this, "you know al
ready what 1 would say, do yon not,
ray darling? Xora, I love you. Love
you more, I think, than ever man
ever loved before, Xoru, will you be

The blue eyes were raised for a
second, and in their misty radiuuou
Jack Dulton read his answer.
"Xora! " broke in a voioe of meas
ured severity, which made Nora start
like a guilty creature, "I have been
looking for you everywhere! Xora,
Mr. Pontifex has arrived unexpectedly
at home, and apparently, from what
I can gather, does not wish to meet
you first h. re. So, of coui-so, you will

"I do uot see why, Gladys!" said
Norn, but her voice trembled and her
fair face was very white,
"Then allow others to judge of
what is right and fitting uml.-r the

sharply. "I have made your apolo

As the girl goes reluctantly forward
Jack Dulton makes a hasty step tow

"Pardon me," she said in a soft
voice, in whioh there was a light ring
of pity, "but I cannot but fear you do
uot quite know the facts about my
little sister. If you have been led to
think anything from her manner I am
very sorry, but it happens so often.
Naughty child ! She is a sad flirt I"
Mrs. Hastings gave a gentle, amused
laugh, which died suddenly as her
eyes fell on Jack's white, stern face.
"Excuse met" he said, in a haughty
tone, "but I do not understand what
you are endeavoring to oouvey to me.
Why does the advent of this gentle
man appear so important to her,

"Ah, it is as I said ; you do not un

Hastings. . "They are briefly these.

He ends abruptly, for Nora's eyes are
Hushing with unconcealed rage.
"My future husband!" ho ex
claimed. "Never! Uy what right

As sho raised her head lit a sudden

Ho raised bis hat mochnnionlly, and

Ho raised his eyobrows slightly.
"I am ut your sor vice, Miss Carow !"
ho said, icily.
Nora looked nervously at him. '
Would bo uot help her? No ; ho was
gaging before him with a blank, set
expression.
"I I don't know how to say it,"
Norn broke out impetuously, "but I
heard you were goiug away today, and
oh, Jack, don't look away from mo

Manuel's and Customs of The Boers.
The daily life of a Boer family is a
simple one : At daybreak, all the mem
bers assemble in the main room the
kitchen and eating room, although
most of the food is cooked in the open
air where the head of tho family
reads reverently a ohapter or two from
the Bible, generally the Old Testa
ment, a simple, manly prayer is then
ordered, followed by the observance
of an anoient Bible custom. A col
ored handmaid euters the room with
basin of water and a towel. The
guest ia first approsohod and invited
to wash his bands and fuoe aud wipe
them on the towel. The head of the
family is next approached and eo on
arouud thu room until all have been
included in thu oeromony. This con
stitutes the day's ablutious of tho
family. The morning meal oousists
of a dish of meat deer or mutton,
and sometimes beef out into large
piocoa. J hey all ait around tho board
while the father says a long graoo, and
a stranger not familiar with thoir table
manners is apt to bo loft in tho lurch.
Kach man, for tho women cat nlono,
selects thu particular pinco of meat
that strikes his fancy, and as soon ns
tho "Amen" is spokoti, sticks bis fork
into tho pioco selected. It happens
sometimes that two anient tho sumo

and strong black cotToo complete tho
bill of fare, which may Aland as a

Oldest llnllrnnd In the World.
Thu Baltimore & Ohio Is tho oldest
chartered railroad in America, nud tho
oldest pnsseugcr railroad in tho world.
On tho 4th of July, 1828, ground was
broken for tho promising enterprise
by Charles Carroll of Carroll ton, tho
only remaining signer of tho Declara
tion of Independence. At the time
it was ouly designed for a horso rail
road, for steam had not yot been
evolvod into a practical motive power.
It was tho original intention to extend
the road ultimately to tho Ohio river,
hence the name which it now boars
was given to it nt its beginning.
Ou tho 22 I of May, 18:10, tho rond
was opened for business from Balti
more to Kllicntt's Mills.thirtoon miles.
Thu first American passenger car
then used was almost 12 feet long ;ono
horse was attached, good for ulyht
miles an liour.carrying 25 passengers.
Tho driver sat iu front, tho conductor
stood on tho stein behind. Tho first
driver, Mr. Galloway, who was after
wards made eiigiueer.livod to see tho
road perfected from tho primitive ono
horso power to its climax of wonder
ful display nt tbo World's fair, whoro
ho held forth with prido as the first
engineer of tho first passenger railway
in America. ..Vviv.;-i5i'" '-'
Very soon after tlio rond 6tartod a
more ambitious car was usod, known
ns tho "doilblu decker." Then a
tread car was iiitrodilcod, llio object
being for tlio horso to move itn own
car and passenger car attached at tho
siimu time, n sort of animated four-
legged locomotive, which is doubtless
moro humorous to read about than it
would bu to rido buhiud, particularly
pi this day of lightning spued.
Momentous events followed quickly
ou this new road, nml on August 2H,

Cooper, drew the first pnssongor oar
ever propelled by steam upon any
railroad iu the world, Mr. Cooper act

Alaska I'nyi Its Way.
There are people who ore fond of
saying that tho Uuitod States "has
spout moro iu trying to dofcud tho
right to coutrol the seal fisheries than
Alaska has been worth to it." A docu
ment just now sont by tho prosidout
to Congress shows that tho govern
ment has derived, siuoj 1870, from
tbo soal fisheries alone, 8(5,351,001,
and that there is a claim of nearly a
million moro outstanding. Including
all the expenditures of polioing Buhr
iug a and for tho support of the na
tives, and for saluries, thoro has bocn
a uot profit to the Uuitod States siuoa
1870 ou tho seals nlono of $1, 058,858.
Siuoe the Canadiaus began their at
tempts to break up these fisheries the
profits have vanished.
Aside from the ual fiihories, thore
are other fisberios of greit value. In
his annual roport seorotary Smith says
that "tho salmon alono taken pre
pared for tho markot by cauning or
otherwise gives an annual return of
83,000,000." Gold miuiug has also
beoomo of great and increasing im
portance, aud, according to these offi
cial doouments, Alaska returns to the
poople of the United States in one
year now almost as much as the cost
of it. The Manufacturer.
Oilsoaked Wood That Was Fireproof.
The wood used in the hold of a ves
sel to keep barrels and hogsheads
from rolling out of position, known
as "dunnage," is generally good for
fuel, but there are exceptions. A
Portland man was offered a quantity
of this stuff recently, but waa advised
not to take it as it would not be worth
the trouble. It had been used .as dun
nage for barrels of kerosene, and the
barrels of leaking oil had completely
saturated it, but this, strange as it
may appear, reudred the wood almost
unfit for use. It would burn so sul
lenly or soggily that little heat would
be given forth. The reason, as ex
plained by the Trauscript, is that the
volatile, inflammable priuoiple of the
oil evaporates from the wood, aud
leaves only a dogging, inoombnstible
substance. Lewistoa. Me,, Journal, ,

In tho city tho great destroyer of a

tho lion points to whero tho wiud lies.
If tho head is at tho north, the wiud is
