"When the last red tibbet disappeared through the door, Grace Devine dropped her weary head upon the desk before her, and wept aloud. All her long, happy summer, frought with such joy that few, save sensitive natures such as hers was, could experience all the busy, hopeful fall days were to end in despair, broken hearts, and shattered hopes. Only a little thing, but it had turned her lover from her with harsh words on lips that hnd pressed hers so passionately only a little while before-- lips that had vowed to love aud protect her forever, and which at the first sign of suspicion were foremost in mistrust­ ing her. Only three years before, from a lux­ urious home, had Blie been thrust upon the mercies of the world, and, finding her way to Glenville, had secured a position as teacher of the village school. Was it Fate that threw Robert Shan- don across her path that spring morn­ ing long ago? He, the old Squire's son, home from college, looked into the liquid eyes of blue vrtth a gref^ longing surging up from his soul, and she, why 1 she dropped her eyelids modestly as she passed the dark-eyed stranger, her heart thumping strangely. the blizzard struck him.

They called him away then, when signs of life were returning, and he spent restless half hour pacing up and down, awaiting the summons which they promised would come when she would be able to see him.

ALREADY THE SNOW WAS A FOOT DEEP, BUT Pfsi ON SHE MUST. 'Squire Shandon was more than pleased, next morning, to hear his er­ ratic son announce his intention to set­ tle down upou his father's estate, in­ stead of gallivanting off to South Amer­ ica in quest of boa-constrictors and such interesting companions. But no boa- constrictor could have wound him so tightly in its toils as did pretty Grace Devine entangle him in the meshes of her golden hair in the weeks following. Such glorious days, filled with shy looks. soft pressure of hands, long walks, and an occasional stoleu kiss. And then the dal when those thrilling, passionate Words of love burst forth from Rob's lips, and he took her, un­ resistingly, in his arms. Grace knew what infinite happinness was. The long, long happy days of summer and fall, and then the bleak, cold, desolate hours of waiting for one word of recog­ nition or love. Sob after sob shook the delicate form, as the girl thought over all this, and at last, weary, heart-sick and de­ spairing, she lifted her head, with eyes filled with agony, and slowly prepared for her homeward trip. It had suddenly grown cold. Puffs of wind angrily whistled by her, ad she made her way down the path. Before her lay the long road, stretching away for half, a mile to the nearest farm house. Already the air was full of flakes, and the wind against her. With the greatest speed she hurried forward, but in a few minutes to her dismay, she foqnd her­ self completely enveloped in a howling, stinging, ragging blizzard. Half an hour ago life held forth no sweet inducements for her. Now, could she but see Rob first, she would willingly give up the struggle. Already the snow was a foot dee,p, her hair aim lashes frozen with the fine dust, but push on she must, just to tell Rob that those fatal letters bearing a man's clvirography, which he had so often of late brought up to her, and which aroused his wildest jealousy, and chauged his love to distrust, were only letters from the lawyer who was endeavoring to collect some of her late father's shattered property, and if he were successful she would be entitled to the name of heiress. "But I wanted to surprise you, oh Rob!" Her voice ended in a broken wail, and she sank down unconscious. Well for Rob, and well for Grace, that on this very afternoon, being some­ what belated, on business in a neigh­ boring town, he was rapidly making his way home. He intended to stop at the school-house and ask his tender- eyed little love her forgiveness. Acci­ dentally he had learned of the efforts being made in her behalf to regain part, at least, of her father's estate, and instantly comprehended all which had angered him so badly. So with love-lit " eyes and tenderest lips, he was rapidly nearing home when Missionaries tor Darkest Africa. Missionaries soon find their way through paths newly opened by ex plorers, and, while the world is listen ing to the stories of Stanley's latest ad­ ventures and discoveries, an expedition organized for the purpose of christian­ izing the natives of Central Africa, has been fitted out with supplies in New York and started on its mission. At its head is the Rev. Dr. Johnson, of Jamaica, West Indies, who came here to secure equipments for himself and his party, which comprises ten educated Christian natives of the West Indies. I)r. Johnston, who was graduated from the Rev. Henry Grattan Guinness' Missionary Training School in London, and has preached and worked effective­ ly at many out-of-the-way stations on the Island of Jamaica, intends to start from a point on the east coast of Africa, where a force of native carriers can be secured and to work west with his little band of West Indian teachers, to the lakes, passing through the new Af­ rican paradise, Masailand, together with Bengueland and much other terri­ tory never before opened to the mis sionarv. He will locate missions at different points. The doctor Las a di­ ploma which shows him to be a physi­ cian as well as a clergyman and he will carry a full supply of medicines into the heart of the Dark Continent. He can also cook a meal, mend or make clothing, shoe a horse, build a boat or construct a house. He therefore feels competent to conduct the somewhat perilous undertaking he has entered upon, and declares that he will carry the Gospel into tracts of terri­ tory where no white man has yet been. He promises that his evangelizations will not d© conducted in a sectarian spirit, for h^ holds that he has not en­ tered upon his work in the interests of any t single {denomination.--Brooklyn Times. ' j ^ Mid-Uajr Keata. To the woman's page of the Sunday World, Ella Wrheeler Wilcox contrib­ utes an article urging women both young and old who desire to preserve their Rood looks and vivacity to take a part of every day about mid-day, for an hour's rest and Bleep. To those who may say that sleep will not come to them in the day time, she replies, "Then take rest, but by persistent wooing, the iacuity for mid-dav sleep can be won." she says in conclusion: "I think some enterprising being ought to rise up, and supplement our •physical culture' and 'Delsarte' and 'massage' schools, by a 'slumber school,' where people will be taught how to go to sleep at will, with an ofler of prizes to the pupihi who can fall asleep the most readily." Her advice to women is equally good for men. There would be less pre­ mature breakdowns among men ia active business life if they could break the business of the day into two parts with a break of about two hours, de­ voting one Hour to the sociable mid-day meal and* the next hour to a quiet mid­ day nap. To emphasize the wisdom of this advice, wo close with the following clipping from Medical Age: "In addition to the good night's sleep it is a good plan to take a short nap in the middle of the day. It divides the working time, gives the nervous system a fresh hold on life, and enables one to more than make up for the time so oc­ cupied. It is well to guard against too long a sleep at such times since such is apt to produce disagreeable relaxation. There has been much discussion re­ garding the after dinner nap, many be­ lieving it to be injurious, but it is never­ theless natural and wholesome." Health Monthly. J-aslilun 8|>olletf. A curious instance of how a fashion was nipped in the bud took place in New York during the early part of this century. A party of young swells--pos­ sibly the advanced guards of the pres­ ent army of Anglomaniacs--one day rigged up a coach-and-six and drove around town in style. This incited an­ other clique of young men, who, not to be outdone at this sort of thing, im­ mediately fitted out a coach-and-eight and appeared on the principal streets in great splendor. So amusing was this to the workmen of the town that a party of sixteen carmen, determining to bur lesque the whole affair, dressed them­ selves in clean white Irocks and ap­ peared in the most fashionable parts of the town in a new coach, which was driven by no less than sixteen horses tandem. Each man had hia hair powdered. Thirteen acted as postilions, and the extraordinary appearance of this eingu lar vehicle sent a loud giiffaw from one end of the town to the other. So ridic­ ulous did the carmen make this absurd custom of emulation appear that no fur­ ther attempt was made on the part of the young swells, who, however, took the thing in such good part that one of them wrote an ode called "Carmen Tri- umphe."--Clothier and Furnisher. Arsenical i'oitoning. There have been several serious cases of arsenical poisoning by inhalation and otherwise in Boston of late. A turkey* red down puff was an unfortunate Christmas gi t received by one patient; candy has reached its consumers in vividly colored papers, and other high colors, not necessarily green, have caused eevere symptoms. Millions of pounds of arsenic are imported into this country and used in manufactures. There is a law in France forbidding its use in French manufactures, but allow­ ing it to be exported. An effort is to be made for the restrictive legislation con­ cerning the use of arsenic.--Boston TranscrivL MODI Y, _ It was a dark night, and down a re­ tired street in Parit a man rode along on horseback. Suddenly the horse stopped as if frightened. Then a man lose from the pavement, in the middle of the street, and jumped to one side with a cry. The rider was angry, and exclaimed, "Are you drunk, man, that you lie about in the middle of a dark street to get yoursel f run over ?" "You might better lead a poor fellow a hand than scold in that way," ex­ claimed the other. "I had 300 francos in gold in this bag, carrying it to pay a bill for my master, and the bag has broken and it is all lost over the street. If you have some matches they will dc me more good thau your curses." "It's no easy task to find lost money on a night like this," said the rider, dismounting. uI have no matches, but perhaps I can help yon. Have you any of the pieces left?" "Only one," replied the unfortunate fellow, with a sob. "Give it to me," slid the other. The poor man hesitated. But th« stranger repeated the words in a tone of authority, and the last coin was handed to him. The stranger whistled and a great Danish mistaff stood beside him. He held the coin to the dog's nose, aud leaning to tho rough pavement, said, "Find them." The dog sniffed the gold pieoe $nd began the search. One, two, three; he began bringing in the ooins and dropping; them into his master's hand, while the poor servant stood by in silent wonder. Thirteen times he returned vdth a twenty-franc piece. Then, after a long search, he came back empty, with a grunt that seemed to say, * "There are no more." "We are yet lacking one piece," said the stranger. "Are you sure there was just 300 francs?" "Sure as sure oan be, sir,"the servant replied. "Then look in tb^bag again. There must be one left there." The man looked, and sure enough, found the last gold piece still there. "Oh sir!" he exclaimed, as the stranger spraig into his saddle, "you are mv deliverer. Tell me your name, that my master may know who has done him such a service." "I have done nothing," said the stranger. "Tell your master that the one who helped you was a very good and intelligent dog, by the name of Joie." It was some yean afterward, whan France had seen troubled times and tire' royal family was no more, that the master was telling the incident to a party of friends, one of whom had been em­ ployed in the palace. "Joie! Joie!" he exclaimed. "There never was but one dog of that name, and there never was a more remark able and faithful dog that he. He al ways accompanied his master when he went in disguise about the city." "Who was his ,master?" they all asked. The reply was brief: "The Emperor Napoleon."--Companion. Ckeat- Warmers. One of the many quaint little articles which go to form a part of every Japan* ese woman's dainty accessories is the chest-warmer. Now a chest-warmer is nothing more or less than a diminutive charcoal stove about four inches long by two and a half wide, and an inch in thickness. They are made of tin, with tiny perforations' here and there on the side to furnish a draft, and keep alive the fire within. The tin is then covered with paper to prevent the escape of any particles of dust or ashes which might soil the out­ side cover, which is generally made of delicate embroidered silk of some bright hue. On the top is a little elide which is drawn aside to adn>it the fuel, which consists of a roll of charcoal the length of the box, and an inch in diameter. The charcoal is finely powdeied and securelv packed in a tough paper cover; this roll is lighted at one end an<l then deposited in the little stove, where it merrily burns away for six hours before needing renewal, giving out a gentle warmth which is dedicedly agreeable on a cold day. The Japanese women invariably dress in light weight silk kimonas--dresses-- carelessly folded across the bosom. Now, as the climate of Japan is damp, and at times decidedly chilly, and Japanese fashion will not admit of warm wraps, a Japanese lady deftly slips a couple of these little charcoal' comfort­ ers beneath the multitudinous folds of her loose gown, adjusting one over each lung; then she boldly defies the c o l d , d i s p l a y i n g t w o o r t h r e e i n c h e s o f ' shinning amber-hued throat without the least fear of the terrors of pneumonia^ American ladies who visit Japan find them very pleasant as hand-warmers. One of them slipped into the muff will warm one to an amazing degree. Bard Work for the Almighty. Thero is a minister in New York City who said once. that he was not certain that he should ever make a long prayer again. What led him to say this was the remark of a very small boy whose mother attends his church. Since the minister learned of the remark, it may not be unfair to tell the story. It was a very long prayer, and when the mother was leading her son from the church after the sert icej the boy said to her: "Mamma, don't you think God must get awfully tired? His mother looked at him in surprise. "What makes you think BO?" she asked. "Oh, he works HO hard." She waited moment. "What makes you think God works so hard?" she asked finally. "Oh, he workes hard listening to so many long prayers."--New York Tri­ bune. Keeping the Boys Down. The imperial family of Austria is re­ ported to be practicing the most rigid economy. Archduke .Charles Louis, who is heir presumptive to| the Empire cf Hapsburg, has limited each of his sons to 50 florins or $25 a month until they are of age, at which time they will inherit $100,000 a year each. This stern measure lias been adopted to prevent the young men falling into the evil way that proved fatal to Prince Ru-. dolph, and resulted in the disgrace of Archduke Ernest and Arch­ duke Sigmund, who have been ban­ ished from the court and limited in their pocked money to exactly $5 a day after everything else has been found for them.
