' I found what I wanted in the ancient city of Lucca, one of the loveliest spots on the peninsula. The house was quite new, and in every way desirable, while the rent asked for it was absurdly low. I questioned the agent in reprard to this circiimstauce. Having my money safe, he could afford to bo truthful. _ " There is nothing against the house itself, but tlio grounds have the repu­ tation of being haunted. Htralige sounds are said to bo heard near that ledge of rock in the park yonder. We Italians are superstitious, signor," he added, with a bow, " but I presume to an American a ghost is no objection." " So little," I replied, laughing, " that I am obliged to you for the opportunity of making the acquaintance of this one. Such superstitions are common in Italy, and the agent's story made very little iinprescaon upon me. During a tour of inspection around the premises I came upon Uie rock in question. It consisted of two walls of granite, perhaps twenty feet in height, meeting at an oblique angle, covered over their greater extent with wild vines. It struck mo a« an exceedingly beauti­ ful nook, and appropriate ior my hours of out-door lounging. On the following morning, provided with a book and a cigar, I went thither, and disposed myself comfortably in the shade of an oiave. I had beoome ab­ sorbed in the volume, when I was startled by the sound of a voice near me. It was evidently that of a woman, wonderfully soft and sweet, and was singing one of the 1 rallads of the country. I could dis­ tinguish the words as perfectly as if epoken at arm's length from me. I started up in amazement. I had no visitors, and my only servant was an old man. Nevertheless, I made a thorough exploration of the neighborhood, and satisfied myself that there was no one in the grounds. The only public road was half a mile distant. The nearest dwell­ ing was directly opposite, across a level Elain--in sight, but far out of ear-shot, a a word I could make nothing out of it. I observed that when I left my orig­ inal position under the olive the voice became instantly silent. It was only within the circumference of a circle of about two yards in diameter that it was audible at all. It appeared to proceed from the angle between the two walls of rock. The minutest examination failed to reveal anything but the bare rock. Yet it was out of this bare rock that the voice issued. ' I returned to my former "station in downright bewilderment. The agent's story occurred to me, but even now I attached no weight to it. I am a prac­ tical man, and was firmly convinced that there must be some rational explanation of the mystery, if I could but discover it. The voice was certainly that of a young girL Hut where was she? Was the old fable of the wood-nymph a truth after all? Had I discovered a dryad em­ bosomed in the rock? ., I smiled scorn­ fully even as these fancies ran through my head. For more than half an hour the sing­ ing continued. Then it ceased, and, though I waited patiently for its re- iiewaf, I heard no more of it that day. i When I returned to the house I made no I mention of the matter, resolving to keep * to myself until I had solved the liystery. The next morning at an early hour I returned to the spot. Aiter a tedious interval the singing began again. It went softly and dreamily through one v»rse of a song, then ceased. Presently I heard a deep sigh and then in a slow, tU»u^hlful tone the voice said : "Oil, how lonesome it is! Am I to pie* >" v whole life in this most dreary place?" There was no answer. Evidently the pe^on was merely soliloquizing. Could she hear me if I spoke, as I heard her ? supposing her to be a living being at all. I determined to hazard the experi- meit. "Who is it that is speaking?" I asked. Fit some moments there was no re­ ply, then in a low, frightened whisper the wee said: was it ? I heard a voice." I answered, "jon heard nine x spoke to you." "Vhoare yon?" asked the voice, tremxloualy. "Are yon a spirit ? " "I am a living man," I returned. terious speaker had gone. I returned home in a state of stupid wonder, ques­ tioning myself if I had lost my senses, and if the whole occurrence was not a delusion. I was faithful to my appoint- ment with the voice on the following morning, however. I had waited biit a ,few moments, when the soft, trembling accents broke the silence, saying : "I am here." "And I, too," I answered; "I am grateful to you for coming." more, are no " teries is reported to be inrHaHnfmifiWhfo from lhat of arable lands, CONOKBJOKO the moon's effect"on tides, the Astronomer Royal for Ireland reoeutly stated that, while the day is gr&duiuly lengthening through lunar ao- taou tides, the earth reacts on the moon aud drives it away farther and farther.

It Is curious that, with the example of the King Charles spaniels before us, no one thought before of mning these intelligent animals for sentinels. The value of the plan is self-evident.

They certainly would be hard messen­ gers to catch when sent stealing through the woods at night. " SIABE NEW AGAIN.1* KM Wx. D. RYOKM.VN, St. Catheriae*. Ont, aya : M K, V. Pierce, Buffalo, N.

The difference ol general stature is well shown where a tall and short people come together in one district Thus in Australia the av­ erage English colonist of five feet eight inches looks clear over the heads of the live feet four-inch Chinese laborers. Still more in Sweden does the Swede of live feet seven iuches tower over the stunted Lapps, whose average measure is not much over five feet. Among the idlest of mankind are the Patagonians, j who seemed a race of giants to the Eu­ ropeans who first watched them striding along their cliffs draped in their nIHn cloaks ; it was even declared that the heads of Magalhean's men hardly reached the waist of the first Patagonian they met. Modern travelers find on measuring them, that they really often reach 3ix feet four inchs, their mean hight bring about five feet eleven inches --three or four inches taller than the av­ erage Englishman. The shortest of mankind are the Bush­ men and related tribes in South Africa, with an average hight not far exceeding four feet six iuches.

Will it be believed? I was in love with the invisible girl--in love with a voice! Absurd, of course, but I am not the first man who has fallen in love with a wom­ an's voice. .Besides, I was confident that it was only a matter of time before I should see the girl in person. One day toward the end of summer, we had been talking as usualy and I had said: 41 My stay Lenore." "All," was the quick reply, 4 leave me, Geoige." 44 No, Lenore," I answered, 44 not if you \vi>h me to stay." 4' How can I help it, George, whether you go or stay? I have never seen you --I never shall see you. What am I to you? " 44 All in the world, Lenore," I an­ swered. "Ours has been a strange ex­ perience, WTitliout knowing each other as people ordinarily do, we have yet been close friends. You are more to me than any friend, for I love you, Le­ nore." There was a quick, suppressed cry, no other reply. 44 Be tvuthful, Lenore. Tell me your heart. If you love me, trust to me to discover your whereabouts and oome to Euotlonal Qualities ef the Yefce. !

I know you are good and noble, and I am willing to leave my fate in your hands. Yes, George, I love you." Even as she said the words she ut­ tered a cry of alarm. Then agruffman'a Toice spoke: " Go to your room, Lenore. Aa to this villain with whom you have been holding these secret meetings, we shall Boon find him and punish him as ha deserves.

This modulation becomes ex she would no longer believe in a doctoi j Passive in the earliest period of life, and •who would make her dress like a guy ; and being dressed like a " guy " is dress­ ing different from the style prescribed by a Paris modiste. Dinna never could hunt in a trailing skirt, narrow, tight, high-heeled gaiters, and a pinched, cor­ seted waist, but Dina was a belted tunic, and unfettered limbs would be baunced off ^Broadway by the nearest policeman. Dreeing for health and freedom of body and limb is one thing, and dressing for fashion quite another. A man couldn't endure the pinching and encumbrances peculiar to female attire for an hour, and a pretty spectacle he'd make rushing about in such during business hours. Yet the " weaker sex " wear double the en­ cumbrances of the so-called stronger. To " dress " at all after the style takes up half a woman's time and two-thirds of her strength. -- New York Graphic. IT is generally observed that persons of about 40 years, especially young ladies of that age, ,are very forgetful of those with whom they were acquainted in childhood. This remarkable dimness of memory has been appropriately styled "The darkness of the middle ages." is intimately related to vocal and instru­ mental music, and to muscular action. Darwin ln-lieves that utterance was first associated with courtship, in its various phases , of endearment, rivalry and triumph1; and thought that the progeni­ tors of man had the power of ntteranoe of musical tones even belore that of articulate speech. Dogs on Duty. The Russians have strengthened their firmy by the novel addition to each com­ pany of a pack of powerful and carefully trained dogs. These watchful animals are sent ont with the sentinels on picket duty, where their sharp ears and still keener scent will prove an impregnable barrier to the lurking spies of the en­ emy. The dogs used are a species of blood-hound from the Ural mountains. The dog is selected because of its hab­ itual silence. It growls, but never barks --a matter of first importance to soldiera near an enemy's camp. The Ural hound is gifted with an exceedingly fine sense of smell, keen ears, and is ever alert. Most comforting of all to tbe lonely : picket, the dog is said to be especially quantity of human nature in his com­ position ; every line and word in his beat passages seems to vibrate with feeling, and has therefore a permanent vitality. Undoubtedly the feeling often conceals iteeIf under masks to which it has no right; vanity passes itself off for lofty independence, and mere personal spite righteous moral indignation. But the feeling, though affecting to be something better than it is, is still genuine feeling, and therefore appeals to our sympathies; *nd, moreover, it is net intrinsically base. On the contrary, Pope's impulses are so keen and vigorous, and spring from a nature with so much capacity for real affection, that, in spite of ourselves, we have an affection for the i warm-hearted, excitable, senditive, irrit- ! able and spiteful little sinner, and wish j to set down even his sins rather to the j unfortunate accident* of his position than I to an essential baseness of the man him- | •elf. --Pall Mall Gazette.
