And whilst he was thus doing the civilitias of speech, Frank was thinking to himwa : “Was ever mortal man in such a predicament before? I wish I was well out of it. Catch me ever wanting to get inside of a harem again," and so on. “Humility may be carried too far," ex- o‘almad the princess, in answer to Frank's last volley of excuses. "I am sick of this monotonous prison life of the harem. I pant for freedom, the freedom and enjoyment of the Faring 'ae women. If I marry a Mussol- man I shall never obtain them. Am I not cung and fair? Why, then, should I be orevcr hidden behind stone walls, and guarded by hideous armed eunuchs, whilst others more favored by fortune but not by nature dance before all men with their faces and necks uncovered ‘.’ Whilst you are the only Faringbaa whom I have known, and as you risked your life for me you must love me.

Introduce we the reader to the palace of q Ahmad Ara-bi Pasha, the war minister, at ‘ big, pink house, with yellow jalouslss and blinds, having a garden in front gorgeous with scarlet hibiscus blossoms, and to 'thal salath of big ball thereof, which, nooord- ing to custom, is the general reception room, and wherein at the hotter seasons of the year, 5 on account of its coolness, meals are generally : taken as well. ._ ' '- Tho floor \v‘as'of marble, the surrounding l wells were whitewashed and hung here an .. there with arms and armor, whilst surround- l ed at different altitudes by balconies or gal , lerias, some of which were fronted by a fu'ol- l lie-work of wood called moueharabias, the : object of which was that the ladies of the ; harem could peer cut tbsrethrough (whilst. remaining themselves unseen) upon an object 3 of interest in the hall below. 2 Had any of the ladies been there upon 3 the present occasion they I held nothing that would have tempted them ' to remain, for the salernlo was occupied only ; early morning visitors, who were walking to and fro with measured strides and con. verslug meanwhile in Turkish instead of ; their nvtlvc Arabic, so that not a syllable of 3 their discourse could be understood by the ,- . bousb, who was posted just at the outer; door, or by his companions of the metal on a stone bench: for the. the needle. 1 Ahmed Arebl, the we: minister, is tho= centre figure of the three, and be on the: right with the crafty, cruel look in his face, 5 w"'li.

We know you to be the champion of the downtrodden people, and it is the people whom we must now proceed to stir up, for their own good.’ "The army is ours to a man,“ replied Arabi. "The pay of a single astro a day, especially when it happens to a two years in arrears, is a very low bid for loyalty and cheerful service." “And for such troops the prospect of pil- lagiu the banks, magazines, warehouses and s ops of the h‘rankish swine would prove a temptation that they could hardly resist. Yes, I myself imagine that they are can too man; yet must the populace of, at (all events, the largest cities be won over." So spoke Suleiman Boy: and Arab! re- joined: “It willbe no difficult task, for to make them one with us we have but to tell the simple truth. It wants no coloring what'- avar. ” “They know that the European merchants ‘ despise while they fleece them," growled Toulba Pasha. “The very children are aware of that." "By Allah, European commerce quad- ruplee the price of everything to the poor," echoedSulsimnu Bay. - .“Aye, and it'doublos their labors as well. There lsno slave driv- ar equal to an Englishman ore Frenchman." “Bands of pilliagsrs are they all. They have never known" how to be useful to us. ' “Because for every honest man Europa P sends us twenty swindlars." "And the one honest man makes his for- tune in Egypt only to. spend it elsewhere. That is not the way to do good to the country." “Yet our Khediva, who, (as you well know, should be the father of' his people, is never so happy as when surrounded by those blood-suckers, and feteing and feasting them cgvtho money which he wrings frcm the starving peasantry for the special urposo. To each new arrival who is arms witha latter of introduction, he says, ‘lVolcomo, the riches of Egypt are yours,’ and by Allah and the Prophet, I have never looked upon the Foringhee yet who has been slow to take him at his word."

The Poultry Yard. work in the poultry yard does not amount to much, but it is very import- ant that what little work there is to be done shonldbc done properly, and at the right time. First is the little things about the care and management of poultry. which, if tended to properly, keep the fowls in such good condition and thrift. Above all things do not neglect cleanli- ness; for fowls will keep healthier and in better condition on me agar quantities of coarse food with cleanliness. than if fed on the best and most nourishing food if on- tombod in filthy quarters. Clean the house often and scatter plenty of dry earth and fresh sand around the house and under the roasts. Clean dirt surely is cheap, but be- comss quite valuable when applied for this purposr. Cars bestowed upon poultry is not lost by any means, as some persons seem to think, for the fowls appreciate kindness and care very quick in returning favors in the shape of nice fresh eggs. The better the cars and the more varied the food, the better will be the results, and tho more profitable they will be to their owner. There is at present a great deal of inter- est manifostedin the rearing of Bantams. The smallest specimens are considered the best, being the hardest to obtain. The practice followed by most breeders seems very cruel, to say the least. T hey do not rat the bone until very lsto in the smson, so that the chicks will on.y be partly gr‘ovvnwhsn P the cold weather comes. This will serve to stunt their growth more or less, and this is just what the breeders want to accom- lish. Basidas this, they are oftentimes very scantily fed for the same reason, it be- ing very desirable to have them as small as possible. They make beautiful little pets, and as much more profitable than most of our ornamental fowls. The time for selling chicks is now at hand. They are now of a large size and the boat breeders can be easily picked out. Now is really the time to start into the poultry business, for'good n‘osk can be purchased at reasonable prices, and by changing location now they will become accustomed to their new quarters, and be in excellent brooding condition in the spring. If they are bought in the spring at breeding time, the change will oftentimes break up their laying, audit will take considerable to recover and got in good brooding condition again. And, as time is obi-valuable in breeding season, it is sometimes quite a serious loss. Experience is a valuable teacher. The reader should look over the past season, and see wherein he has made mistakes. and 'try to improve the next season. Experience teaches that the best way to ship eggs is in baskets, and never in boxes. 'lhere is al- 'ways more or less complaint about aggs bs- ing received in bad order; and anything that can be done to avert this should be carefully attended to by tho reader. ‘ The trouble with shipping in boxes is, that they arc handled too rough; but the instant nu espressmcn secs a. basket with cloth cover sawed on," he knows immediately what it "nicotine, and bandlés it achdingly. \Vhon ship ed in a box, the chances are that they will a handled as ordinary freight, no mat- ter how many special warnings may be writ- tou or posted on the box, for the expressman dose not take‘ time to read them: the na- tural consequence is that they get well shak- an up before they reach their destination. There is a,graat deal of talk and writing about the “ best kind of fowls" and which breed brings the host returns. This is most of it guess wcrk more than anything also, as there is no one variety best for all pur- poses. They nearly all have their special pints of excpllsnce,and breeders should first stamina q‘ualltics he wants best developed in his fowls, and select accordingly. He should fully decide whether he wants eggs alone, or a good market variety, or simply an ornamental variety that makes a nice appearance on the lawn. N c matter what quality is desired, it can easily be found, as we have so many varlctles of fancy fowls, that it is but a simple matter to get the right bird if the breeder knows just what he is desirous of obtaining. V ‘I‘arm Fences. Perhapii no better treatise upon fences can be glven'tban a farmer‘sraason for sack- ing a different fence that those already in usp.

They started out early in the morning with dogs and guns. and hunted upsin noon with poor success.

Fearing that it meditated an a:- tack, he drewelsrge revolver, which be emptied at the brute. At the first shot the panther gave a frightful yell, and, spring- ng from tree to tree. speedily disappeared. Eggioston, who heard the shots fired by Forrester, followed by the yell oi the pen- ther, hurried to his friend's assistance. One ' ,r of the huntsrnou. while glancin up the side ? of the rocks, noticed a crevice a of. twenty feet above his head. The aperture. which was large enough to admit a man crawling on his hands and issues, was badly choked up with rubbish and large bowlders. it was the entrance to a cave, and the men decided to explore it. Climbing to the entrance, they rolled away the lcoso rocks and logs, and soon got rid of enough of the debris to enable them to enter a winding narrow psa- ssgo, high enough for them to walk upright. Owing to the intense darkness they were obliged to return to the mouth of the cave and secure torches. These they lighted and thou raâ€"entered the cave. The passageâ€" way, which turned and twisted in many directions, suddenly emerged into a large apartment of perhaps twenty or thirty-five fast. The room was paved and walled with blue limestone, which lit up brilliantly under the glancing torcbllgbt. As the man were on the point of leaving the cave some curious stucco work in one and of the apartment attracted their atten- tion. it had been formed of flat oblung stones, laid with such nicety as to form a orfact wall. A careful examination of the work led them at once to bcllcve that it had been done by tho hand of man. Forrester, who carried a light are, went to work with a will on tho w.rll. After a quarter of an hour a huge rock in the centre of the wall gave way, falling into the interior and clear- ing an aperture perhaps two feet in diame- ter. A torch thrust t rough tho newly~op- enod passage disclosed a vision that at once astonished and dismayed the man. Stretch- ed upon a bed of skins was the lifcsizs fig- ure of a colossal Indian warrior, attired in girdle and headdress of angle feathers and oads, with his hands resting on knife and battle axe. The coloring and general ap- pearance of the chleltain was so extremely natural as to load tho spectators to think him but asleep. For a moment this vision lingered, thou wavered and disappeared, leaving no traces of tha gorgeous picture of the dead chlaftoin save a quantity of dust and a few boncs. Thcro were a number of flint arrow heads, together with a knife and tho hand of a lmtchot composed of alloy strongly resembling bronze. In addition to those trophies the cave contained a number of curiously shaped flagons or cups of the same peculiar metal and several fragments of earthenware. Just beneath the spot where the body had lain was found a slum) bearing a number of curious lricroglypliics. The hunters gathered their treasures to- gether arid alerted to leave the cave. As they cntorcd the passageway they were appalled to see two living cools of fire curing at them through the darkness. ‘orrostcr fired and killed an enormous pan- ther, measuring six fact one inch in length. The reporter saw the hunters shortly after they arrived at the village, and also examin- ed their trophies. Tho knife blade and handle are of the same place and are about nine inches in length. The knife is vr-rv broad, and was doubtless slmrpencd on both edges. The hatchet hcad childish! of is broad blade several inches in width, with an aperture for the insertion of a handle. The weapons are well finished, and appear to have been hammer-ad out of some mall-a- ablo metal, accordin t) the opinion of Mr. Frank lienslow, a \ ’ashlngtcn chi-mist, to whom the weapons were shown. llo made only a brief examination of the alloy, but thought it must be impure copper orc,sccur- ed probably by tho aborigines in trade from the tribe who once occupied the region of the great lakes. The gentleman will ship their treasures, including thc stone bearing the strange inscriptions,.to the Smithsonian ln~ stitutlon, to other with brief dotalls of the discovery. ho skin of the panther is being prepared for stuffing by tho lucky goutlcnmu who killed him. How Will the World End? To those who are constantly worrying as to the manner in which the world will pro- bably come .to an and, the following ton theories, propnunded by [an En lish writer, will give thorn an abundant cho cc of thoo‘ ries u on whlclito pin their faith : :1. The its surface of the earth is steadily diminishing, elevated regions are being low- ered, and the sons are filling up. The land by and by will all be submerged, and tho last man will starve to death. ‘ :3. The ice is gradually accumulating at the North Pole and mo ting away at tho South Polo, the consequence of which in due time will he that the earth will change its centre of grevity suddenly ; then there will be an awful catastrophe, a flood like unto the Noahic. The last man will be drowned. Z .‘l. The earth cannot always recaps a col- lision with some comot ; when such collision occurs there will be a mingling of air "all cometary gass, causing an explosion. The last man will be blown up. 4.

The last man, of course, wlll be sunstruck. 5. The amount of water on the earth is slow] diminishing, and in ccnszqueucs of this t a air is losing in quantity and quality. Finally, the earth will become an arid waste, like the moon. The lest man will be suffocated. 6.
