She came smiling across the fields, her arms laden with hawthorn bloom. Harold Carleton, as he saw her, thought her the very incarnation of spring, she was bo young, so fresh, so full of ex­ uberant vitality. Yet she was only a cottager's daughter, apparently, for ner ;/r . ̂ #Pfss, though neat, was cheap.

Gentlemen," and she empha­ sized the word, " when they speak to me . ^^jbeUI we.Miss Kent" She had stopped to say this, and she now walked 011 with head erect and the air of a Jjorn Princess. , " Whew!" whistled Harold, " but I've made a mess of it. No cottager's r ̂ ausrhter has an accent like that. Who X'~ . lin tlje deuce can she be? A regular Ut­ ile spit-fire, though." He ventured to ask the landlord about her, at the small inn where he lodged. <, ., ;JJ® had come to this picturesque, hilly & v 1 iitNfio* on * trout-fishing excursion, and he knew no one there. "O, that's the minister's daughter," ^as the reply. " Had her arms full of hawthorn, you say ? Yes, there's plenty it about here; one of the few places I •. there is. We've miles of hedge.

All the oung ladies give way to her , in that, ' ough she is but a child as yet." , , " If she grows up as pretty as she is " v%ow, she'll make many a fellow's heart ; kche," said Harold, philosophically, as he helped himself to another brook-trout; and in five minutes more, so excellent Was the dinner, he had forgotten all Vv^bout the child. .) Years passed. Harold has taken his ' degree and was now studying law, the -ij-profession of his father, Hugh Carleton, .J .and his grandfather before him. Just ; : before the summer vacation began he »*/; THad received a letter from home, "Weshall certainly expect you, dear," his mother wrote, *' this year, and will a,, no excused. It has been two years Ance you were at home, remember. We V ' '"have had such an accession, too, to oar v, aoeiety. Our new rector is a most ex- .1 1 'i - Now Harold, who had gone the sum­ mer before to France and Germany, had thought tins year of going to Norway-- • had almost given his promise, in fact, but at this appeal he wrote back that he ' would come home and spend the whole vacation at '• Inglewood," for that was • 'the name of Hugh Carleton's place. " Dear mamma, it was so hard on her . Vist year," he said to himself. The verv day that Harold came home rector went away on a four weeks' tisit with his wife, and the last words he said to his daughter, as he got'into the carriage, were : " Good-by, Katie, and don't forget to go up to Squire Carleton's and ask to have the gardener come to see the gar­ den. The Squire told me to send for him only yesterday. With his aid we manage to keep the garden very aorry you and ma have gone; but I'm Eoing to have lots of fun, with no one ut oM Naanie to look after me." And her eyes fairly danced with the mischief Carleton himself was in the garden when Katie came in. He had arrived unexpectedly the night before, a Vieek sopner than he had expected. He was fond of a little amateur gardening at times, and was just now bending over - --• moss-rose bush, hoe in hand. His back was toward Kate, and she,, suppos* ing him to be the gardener, cabled out: * j *'0, Adam--that's your name, I hear plAiso nak Mr. Carleton if he can spare *--•£<*1 for a eouple of hours this afternoon. It's Dr. Kent's, you know, at the rect­ ory." Harold glanced mischievously at the pretty face half hidden by the tall lilies, wliicifeshe had stopped to smell as she ?e|kin% Here was a chance for pfirtji Katie had never, probably. seen tlie Hew gardener, who had only come two days before. Why could not jf hi perjsfthitte fee oklfelk>\r?"It was fort- * uiiate for him that he had an old coat on, he thought. >! So, oalling Adam, he-took the old man into the plot, giving him a crown for hush-money, and, in the afternoon, made his appearance at the rectory, and, „ kiioc îig' at the back door, asked for "O, Adam. is it you?" cried Kate, coming forward. ".Let me show you your work. I'll put on my garden" hat and be out in a minute." Harold presented rather a curious ap­ pearance as he followed Kate down tue long wlalt. " His usually-elegant attire had been exchanged for a jacket and trousers of coarse jeans, and his dark r curling hair was covered by a red wig, 1} in color to Adam's flery locks. Iffe had assumed the dame shuffling gait, also. "Here is your work, Adam," said Kate; "tie up the roses, and then weed ... .. this bed of hyacinths; train this wis- <* •* eiria, and,- if you have any more time, 43ome to me for further orders." Harold bowed awkwardly, while a mischievous fjleam shot from the brown eyes as he proceeded to tie up the way- 4 ward roses. " This is getting interesting," he ob<- served. " I wonder what my next order will be? By George, but Miss Vat* queens it well! What a perfect beauty she is J Whew! how hot it is I" He wiped the perspiration ^am his heated brow. ,/ " I begin to understand how the orig-" inal Adam must have felt when com­ manded to earn his bread by the sweat of his brow. There, the wistaria is tied up. Faith, mum," he said, as Kate re­ appeared, " I was jist comin' to see whatever else there was to be done." " How nice you've made things look!" cried Katie, as she glanced at the roses and wistaria. "But it's warm work, isn't it? Adam's your name, I believe. I am glad," affably, "to make your ac­ quaintance, Adam." . "Faith mum, but it is that same as you say, ' replied Adam, drawing his straw hat further down over his eyes, still more to hide his face. " Well, Adam, train up this hedge, and then you may go," she answered, and then swept away. Several days went by. The pretended Adam never failed to be on hand in the afternoon. But in the morning Harold Carleton, in his own proper person, had fishing, boating and picnic excursions, most of which Katie attended; for by this time the Squire's wife had called, bringing her son, and of course, after that, Katie was included in everything that went on. Katie, too, learned to like Harold Carleton very much, for no one moer genial or whole-souled ever existed. He was generous to a fault, frank and open- hearted as the day, and had outgrown the conceit and coxcombery of his youth. One morning, when Katie went into the garden unexpectedly, she found Adam fanning himself with his straw hat, which was usually drawn so closely over his eyes, and she caught a quick fiance that reminded hex or Harold. >ut it was only for a moment. He had not seen her, nor did h§ s^fe her when she quietly seated herself in a vine-covered summer house, and took out some pretty, graceful work with which she soon became quite absorbed. The long, drowsy afternoon was wear­ ing away. Nothing but the tinkle of the little brook back of the rectory, the sound of the scythe which Adam was wielding, and the murmur of the bees, broke the silence of the place. Sud­ denly Katie's ear was arrested by a clear,, manly voice, singing a bar from a favorite opera, in a rich, ringing tenor. She started to her feet and looked out. Only last evening she had sung, with Harold Carleton, that very song, and this surely was his voice again. But no one was in sight except Adam, who was industriously hoeing peas. The truth was, Harold, ignorant of Katie's presence, had forgotten himself; but he was now furious at his indiscretion, for he had heard Katie, and knew what sailed her out. "Adam, has Mr. Carleton been here?" she asked. "I thought I heard him fust now." " No, mum, it'B not yet that I didn't see him," said the apparently stolid Irishman. " I was sure it was his voice," said Katie, looking just a trifle disappointed. He would cross-examine Katie a little, and thus discover her real feeling to­ ward himself. So he asked, carelessly, though hi? whole heart was in her answer: "Did ves wish to see him, miss? For it's meself as will be afther Binding the likes of him to yes ?" "No," said Katie, decidedly* "Stop talking and go to work. I am afraid you are getting lazy;" and Katie walked off with her most queenly step. "Whew!" wliistled Harold. "She's too bright to be caught in that way. Thinks Adam will tell on her. Getting lazy, am I? Well, it isn't because I don't work hard enough," with a dole­ ful gaze at his blistered hands, as he set vigorously to work, adding : " Even as Adam, I must win the good opinion of my Eva." The next afternoon Katio went to call on a friend, and Harold discontentedly watched her departure. It was so pleasant to know that she was in the summer-house or about tlio grounds that he did not like to have her go away. He did not notice her return, nor that she came to the arbor soon after. But when he had finished his last order he threw himself down on a mossy seat, and, tossing his wig off, began fanning himself vigorously with his straw hat. "1 can't wear that confounded wig any longer!" he exclaimed, " It's color even is enough to set me on fire. Now this is refreshing. Beppo, you scam]), bring back that wig. What if your mistress should come ? Must I chase after that dog this scorching day ? " Beppo, Katie's dog, had run off with the wig, as the reader has conjectured, and. 011 chase being given to him. rushed to tne summer-house and laid the wig at his mistress' feet. * " Why, Beppo, what have you there?" she cried. " It looks like the scalp of old Adam. I wonder if--" And she broke into a fit laughter as 6he met the Harold face to faoe. " Mr. Carleton!" " Miss Katie 1" Then, unable to resist it, he also broke into a hearty laugh. 0, so you're not Adam," said Katie, demurely, at last. o, but I will be if you'll only be ve !" he cried, with a touch of hiB ol(V boyish impudence. " O, Katie! Sss Kent, darling, I've learned to love you *so dearly--say you will. We'll make another paradise where we can be happy together, and I shan't be obliged to work so hard," breaking into laughter as he saw Katie's roguish look, and wiped his dripping forehead. "Very well," said Katie, " I'll thinft of it. But you must remember that it was not a woman who made trouble in the garden this time." And she added, archly, M But I'll forgive you fo? deceiv­ ing me, if you will forgive me for-- for--"; "For what?" asked Harold, as she hesitated. " For not letting you know before that 1 guessed your secret. I knew from the beginning that you were not Adam. That first day. when I pretended to be smelling the lilies, I had seen you were at'least not a gardener." "And you let me work all this time? And it was so hot," with a crestfallen look. c "Yes. You deserved it for your trick. But I am glad you can work and obey orders. You may have to do so some time, you know." " Every man has, they say, when h« falls in love," he retorted. £==* "Yes," she said, saucily,r"and you mustn't hope to be an exception. But there, there, isn't that quite enough?" for he was devouring her with kisses. " I declare you're as impudent as you were five years ago." >' Five years ago 1" "Yes. Oh, you've forgotten. Men always do. It is only women who re- ni»-TTiber." " What do you mean ?" Her eyes danced with mischief. She was enjoying his perplexity to the full. " Well^ I'll tell you a fairy tale. Once on a time--there, , stop now, or I'll never get on--there was a little girl coming across a field with her arms full of haw­ thorn bloom." He gave a quick start, and Katie went on demurely. "And she met an impudent yoltag fellow, a collegian, who thought him­ self A Prince, but he wasn't. And he called her ' Saucy Eyes,' the con­ ceited--" -V x "What! You're 'Saucy Eyes' are you ? Oh! I remember it all. Who'd have thought it ? Why, it's the jolliest fairy tale I ever heard. Onlv, then she wouldn't let me kiss her, and now--" " Now somebody']} get his ears boxed if he doesn't behave himself. One must draw the line somewhere, and a hundred, surely--" " Well, since you are so cruel. But when did you first recognize me ?" " The first day I saw you at leisure ; the day you called with your mother." "And," said Harold, reflectively, " there was always something in your faoe I thought familiar. Yes, after all, you are 'Saucy Eyes.'" Brother Gardner on Smypathy.

What do you call dat ? Grant had two terms, a big sulary \ man it had the best safety-valve in the A safety, vaive. On almost all boilers connected with engines there can be found a safety- valve (as it is called). Whenever the boiler gets too full of steam and is in danger of bursting, this little valve opens and lets the steam out. No one has to watch it, for it opens of itself. There was once a man who wanted to travel on a certain steamboat. He went to the boat and examined the machin­ ery, but he found that there was not a Wety-valve on the boiler; so he said to the Captain, " I guess I won't go on your boat, Captain. You haven't a safety- valve, and I am afraid the boat may be blown up without it" " Come down with me to the engine- room," said the Captain, "and I will show you the best safety-valve in the world. When they reached the engine room the Captain went np to the engineer, and, laying his hand on his shoulder, said : "There, sir, is my safety-valve, the best to be found anywhere--a man who never drinks anything but cold water." " You are right, captaip; I want no better safety-valve than that. I will go on this boat."

It is probable that all ants enjoy pe­ riods of true slumber alternating with those of activity ; but actual observa­ tions on this subject have only been made in the case of two or three species. Dr. McCook says that the harvesting ants of Texas sleep so soundly that they may be pretty severely stroked with a feather without l>eing aroused ; but they are immediately awakened by a sharp tap. On awakening they often stretch their limbs in a manner precisely re­ sembling that of warm-blooded animals, and even yawn--the latter act being "very like that of the human animal; the mandibles are thrown open with the peculiar muscular strain which is fa* miliar to all readers; the tongue is also some times thru&t out." The ordinary duration of sleep in this species is about three hours. Invariably on awakening, and often at other times, the ants per­ form, like many other insects, elaborate' processes of washing and brushing. But, unlike other insects, ants assist one another in the performance of their toilet. The author just quoted describes the whole process in the genus Atta. The cleanser begins with washing the face of her companion, then passing on to the thorax, legs and abdomen. The attitude of the cleansed all this while is one ot intense satisfaction, quite re- sembliug that of a family dog when one is scratching the back of his neck. The insect stretches out her limbs, and as her friend takes them successively into hand, yields them limp and supple to her manipulation; she rollB gently over on her side, even quite over on her back, and with all her limbs relaxed pre­ sents a perfect picture bf muscular sur­ render and ease. The pleasure which the creatures take in being thus " combed " and " sponged " is really en­ joyable to the observer. I have seen an ant kneel down before another and thrust forward the head drooping quite uuder the face, and lie there motionless, thus expressing, as plainly as sign lan­ guage could, her desire to be cleansed. I at once understood the gesture, and ao did the supplicated ant, for she at ohce went to work.--Nineteenth Century!. Packing a Trunk. Most people dislike to pack a trunk, and to do it well is something of an surt. It should never be done in a hurry. Ypu should first iget everything together which is to be packed, und then go quiet­ ly and - systematically to work. Very large trunks are an abomination over which expressmen groan and swear, not altogether without reason. Still, small ones are inconvenient, except for short journeys, and multiply expense, _ as the expressage is for etush piece, be it Sara-i toga trunk or a small valise, without re­ gard to size. But, whatever the size of the trunk, it should be filled, or at least packed full enough to prevent the con­ tents from tossing about H you are compelled to take a trunk which is too large for what you need to pack in it, till it with crumpled paper, rather than leave it half empty. Owing to the routjh usage which baggage always raaoivej,, unless the trunk is closely packed the contents will be literally churned up and down, and the clothes which you have carefully folded will be tumbled to a de­ gree, even if nothing worse comes to them. For a long journey it is well to cord trunks. Rope is better than strap, because it goes both ways. Nothing heavy, like boots, etc., should ever be put in the top of a trunk, since the more neavily it is weighted the more likely the hinges are to break. Dresses should Jbe carefully folded, with the flounces laid smooth and drawing-strings let out, the waist folded but once, the wrong side out, with the sleeves laid over the back and the fronts over alL Then, if absolutely necessary, the basque may be folded again down the middle seam of the back, but never across.

The Incisors of the Horn. the incisors of the horse, once worn down or lost, are gone forever, but in many species a provision exists by which the wear and tear of mastication is com­ pensated by the perpetual growth of certain members of the dental series. This very convenient arrangement ex­ ists in all the rodents, or gnawers, an order of which the beaver, the rat and the rabbit are familiar examples, and also ia- the elephant, the walrus, wild boar, etc. The incisors of the rodents are the seat of this perpetual growth, and any one who will take the trouble to evaiaina the skull of a rabbit will at once see how admirably they are adapt­ ed to the animal wants. They are of curved shape, and occupy sockets ex­ tending to the back part of both jaws, the upper pair describing a larger part of a smaller circle, and the lower ones a smaller part of a larger circle. Each tooth consists of a solid column of den­ tine, with a plate of enamel in its outer surface, and, consequently, diminshes -In hardness from front to back. The constant wear produced by the continual collision of the opposing surfaces forms an oblique clxisel-like surface, sloping from the hard enamel of the front to the softer dentine of the back part of the tooth. As these teeth are perpetually growing, they require ctaistant exer­ cise to keep their growth within due bounds, and the rat and others of this most mischievous family might assign, as an excuse for their ravages, the ne­ cessity of finding constant employment for their front teeth.--All the Year Round. How Hen Become Insane. . A large number of lunatics in our asy> iums are the victims of their own mis­ conduct Almost anv person can make himself a lunatic if lie pursues the di­ rect method. There are hundreds and perhaps thousands in this city driving themselves to madness. Gambling, spec­ ulation and hard drinking will under­ mine the strongest intellects. A young man of my acquaintance has lately been sent to Bloomingdale Asylum who was, a few years ago, so promising as to ob­ tain an important appointment. He abused his position, wasted a large sala­ ry, became suddenly a gambler and a rake as well as a defaulter. The same idea is advanced by Ho­ garth, who finishes the " Rake's Prog­ ress" by the scene in the mad-house. During the last five years large num­ bers have been carried to the asylum, •the victims of speculation. The love of pleasure and the haste to get rich have done a fearful work. After the intellect has been over-driven it must sink and perhaps remain in hopeless prostration. It may be added that the increase of in­ sanity since the opening of the present year is of unparalleled degree. More than 500 cases have been reported dur­ ing tliis brief interval, and nenoe it is not surprising that the asylums are more than full. The attention of the public has been called to this subject by the press, and additional room must be pro­ vided. We must either abate that furi­ ous intemperance which is driving so many to madness, or we must double our asylums all through the State.-- Troy Titties. A Gnat Eaterprtae.

This expression; which is often heard, was originated by "Artemus Ward." The Btorv of its inception was as fol­ lows: Once the lamented humorist was engaged to fill an evening in the-lecture course of a popular literary institution of a New England city. During the lect­ ure an individual who occupied a seat on one of the front benches seemed de­ termined to resist the speaker's efforts to make him laugh. Artemus soon discov­ ered both the listener and his inatten­ tion, and concentrated all his powers on him. For a long time it seemed as if the man had the best of it, but by and by one of Browne's queer conceits took effect. The obstinate fellow gave way, and laughed and kicked like a school­ boy. Artemus celebrated his victory by coolly announcing to his audience: "Ladies and gentlemen, this will ter­ minate the lirst act, and we will drop the curtain for a few moments ; while the scenery is being arranged for the next act, the lecturer will take the occasion to go out to see a man," and, with per­ fect sang froid, he left the platform foi the ante-room, where he refreshed him­ self with a pull from a flask of old Bour­ bon.--St. Louia Globe-Democrat. The History of Coke. The history of the discovery of coke and the development of the traffic has nover b«ten written. -Authentic infor­ mation -of the first use of coke in this country places it in 1817, when it was employed by Col. Isaac Meason, one of the earliest founders of Western Penn­ sylvania, in refining iron at the Plum- sock, or Upper Middletown mill, in this county, a few miles from the Youghio- gheny river. In 1818 the use of coke was attempted by blast furnaces, but it had to be abandoned because the blast was too light, beintr only five pounds to the square inch. Even then the value of coke us a furnace fuel was fully ap­ preciated, but the enjoyment of its ad­ vantages was prevented by inability to increase the blast. In 1835 William Firmstone manufactured good • gray- forge ii'on st the Mary Ann furnace, in Huntington county, with coke produced from Broad Top coal. In the same year F. H Oliphant, of Fairchance fur­ nace. near Uniontown, exhibited at tne Frauklin Institute, Philadelphia, sam­ ples of'iron made from blue lump ore smelted with coke. In 1840 the Grpat Western Iron Works; at Brady's fend," built four coke furnaces. In 1841-2-3 coke was made on the banks of the Youghioglieny river and shipped in flat- boats to Cincinnati. A gentleman who is well informed in all the details of the coke business says that Dud Dudley, an English iron manufacturer of the sixteenth century, is entitled to the dis­ covery of coke. He used it for the same purpose to which it is applied now, smelting. The manufactme of coke in the Connellsville region did not rise to the dignity of a business until toward the close of the decade of 1850, when it was carried on principally at Dawson's Station, on the Youghioglieny river, six miles below Connellsville, by the Coch- rans, who are still in the business, and to most of whom it has brought great riches.--Philadelphia Preen. Long Branch Cottages and Their Cost.

Amos Cutting's, on Senator Jones' old lot, cost $35,000; Moses Taylor's cost $40,000, and adding his son-in-law Win- throp's and the two lawns, stands for $125,000. This is one of the Boston Winthrop's. George M. Pullman's cot­ tage and double lawns, on both sides of the drive, represents §07,500. Murphy's cottage and grounds, also double, cost in flush times, £70,000the stable oost $12,000, aud the billiard hall $10,000 ; The numerous small cottages around the Elberon Hotel cost iu dull years $2,250 to $4,00() apiece. Judge Hilton's pur- , chase south of the Elberon Hotel, 350 feet j by 800 feet, cost him recently $30,000, or $100 per front foot He bought it of Newcombe. who made $8,000 by the operation.
