AAMJ--ASM£OF3JQOTBA A tbe Barchester family had* conic to the conclusion, separately and col­ lectively, that Bess looked like a princess in her white dress with the straight clinging folds, the Y neck and the knot of roses at the corsage that looked so exactly like real buds and leaves. Bess was very pretty, too--one of those warm complexioned blondos, with reddish hazel eyes, hair litfhted up with chestnut gleams and pearly teeth, who reminded one of Titian's studies and old Peter Paul Rubens in iris happiest moods. "Ou, Bess'r cried Honora, "do wear your hair in a low coil at the nape of your neck, with just a few cunning little rings escaping." "Nonsense!" said Eudora. "Do it in a fluffy mass at the top ol your head, with an amber dagger or a rope of Roman pearls. Tbe Greek knot is all out or date." "Will you hold your tongues, both of you?" sharply demanded Bess, stamping her foot "Oh, dear, how nervous I feel. Madeline, dear, if the flrst 'evening' we have ever given should Drove a tailure I--I shall com­ mit suicide." ; 4tlt won't prove a failure," said Madeline, the eldest sister of all. Madeline herself was hopelessly plain. The hair that in Jless' case was Titian gold was in hers dull orange red. Her weak, pale eyes were red-lidded and slightly- crooked, her nose long and sharp. But, nevertheless, Made'ine \&as a genius in her way. Old Judge Bar- chester never could have tided over tbe rough sea of creditors, privations and trials that beset him had it not been for her help. "Don't fret papa," said the pale- eyed diplomat. "That idea of yours of giving up this very handsome house is all nonsense. Who cares what the landlord says? Let him wait for his rent. It won't hurt him if he never gets it. Let the trades­ people rare; they are simply a lot of sharks. Here's Bess, a first-class beauty, and if she has a fair chance she's sure to make the family fortunes. But what can any of us do with a cheap flat and cold mutton for dinner? One must have opportunities. Just let Bess and me alone and you shall see what we can do." Judge Barchester always willing to leave the problem of life for some one else to solve, Hung the pile of dun­ ning letters into the tire, and, button­ ing a costly-trimmed overcoat around his portly form, took refuse in the aristocratic halls of the club, while Madeline, like a faded-eyed bird of prey, fluttered forth among the mil­ liners, dressmakers and modistes for the benefit of Bess, the debutante. "Everything is arranged," said she composedly. "I ordered the supper from Vanesse. I had to pay some­ thing on our back indebtedness, but I took care it should be as little as possible. Steiner sends m the flowers. W e've never ordered flowers there be­ fore, and the poor fools are anxious to secure our custom. Mr. Bapper, the funnyman, is to recite,. Mrs. Vivyan engaged him for me. And Miss Dale will sing a Scotch ballad. There are plenty of nicer people than Bapper and Monica Dale, but every one else wants to be paid in advance. Bess colored. « t • "Oh, but we will pay them, tfada- line, when we're able!" said she. "We don't mean to cheat them." Madeline laughed. "Don't be silly, Bess!" she said. "Everyone in the World is more or less engaged in cheating everybody else." "But Madeline," burst in a shrill, small voice. Madeline Barchester uttered an ex­ clamation of annoyance. "You here,No.a!" she said. Listen­ ing and prying as usual. Leave the room at once--and Dora too." "But we want to see Bess' new gloves and fan," pleaded the two schoolgirls. "Well, you can't, then!" Without any ceremony Madeline pushed'Honora and Eudora from the room. "Horrid little nuisances;" said she. "But here's a letter, Bess, that I didn't show you." "Another tormenting creditor?** "Worse than that. It's from Uncle Zabdiel Cooper, down at the Black­ ford farm, where you staved that sum­ mer you had the whooping cough. Don't you remember?" Bess' eyes softened. A precious dimple came out at the corner of her; mouth. "What," she cried; "dear old Uncle Zab?" "Very dear." observed Madeline contemptuously, ' and very delight­ ful! Just the person to make a sen­ sation at your 'at home,' under Mrs. Fitzalan's eye^and raked b/ the Are Mrs. Aubery Uockingham's lorgnette! With his cowhide boots and pepper and salt trousers, and his fringe of chin whiskers, and that chronic of hitf Hy dear Bess, if we fbhat o»f|iipto . cross this Old evening it atffmiftts to ktp tbe game at once. He's written that he's coming ot that evening," l^essgrewpale. ' 'Oh. MadeHne, what ate we to do9' Madeline laughed. "I've managed it," said sha. "I've written back to him that we've movec. to 14 Currant Court. I've told Cousin |Lucy Ransom to make the best of,the Situation. She can personate you if ih^chooser.--she always had a turn Jfor private theatricals--or ahe can convince the dear old bungler that he jhas made some mistake Anyhow jnte'li be safe until Wednesday morn- inc. and we are safe, too." "Madeline, what a contriver you ja-e!" said Bess. "But I do feel sorry for Uncle Zab!" Madeline shrugged her shoulders. "It's a poor policy to feel sorry for anyone," «he observed. "And what does an old lout like that know or care whether he's snubbed or not, Bess?" f "Bess'heart pricked her a little, but she was an apt pupil in the cold philosophy of her elder sister, and arrival at that moment of a box of 'tnarron gtaces for the supper table di­ verted her attention from the topic :under discussion. At 14 Currant Court, however, the Wi(low HuuSOiu was furious. | "Depend upon it, Lu?y," Mid she 1 to her daughter, who did plain sew- j sing for a livelihood, "this is one of Madeline Barchesters's sly, under­ hand tricks, and I've nothing to do with it- You personate Bess Bar­ chester, indeed! \ou're about as much like her as a pumpkin is like a a parsnip. If Bess is ashamed of her relations let her say so cand idly." 4'But, mother," pleaded meek Luev, "what can we do? Madeline has got a good deal of worK for me among her grand friends w "All that don't make it your duty to tell a lie, nor to act It^ either, to, suit her whims," said the old lady. "And they're to have a great party on Tuesday evening, you know." "Well, suppose they are? Didn't Bess and Madeline and the tjvo girls spend all the summer at Blackford farm three years ago? Uncle Zabdiel didn't m ike any excuse for getting rid oi them then, did he? I declare, they've no more hearts than so many slabs of granite." At this moment, however, there was*a ring at the bell, and t#o fair tressed, slim young girls rushed breezily into the room, dragging a brown-faced old farmer behind them. "It's Dora and me." said £Ionora Barchester, breathless and red- pheeked. "And we have brought Uncle /abdiel with us." "It's Nora and me." put In Eudora, crowding herself into tbe foreground. "How do you do, Cousin Ransom and Lucy? We went to the depot to meet him, and a good iob it was, for he hadn't the least idea which way to go." . "He was heading straight tor the Weehawken ferry, "giggled Honora. Uncle Zabdiel's round face beamed all over. "I expect I be pretty stupid," said he, "but I guess I should ra' fetched 'round all right if these 'ere girls hadn't took possession of me. Where's the bag o' hickory nuts, Honory? Who's got the basket o' pound sweets. Eudory? Here's the carpet sack and paper box all right," He shook hands heartily with Mrs. Ransom and Lucv. "How be yon, Phebe?t pursued Ue. "And little Lucy, too? Got to be a woman, hain't yot^1 Livin' with the judge's folks, I suppose? But where's Madeline and my little fav­ orite. Bess?" Lucy and her mother looked hesitat­ ingly at each other, but Honora plunged into the question at once. "I'll tell you, Unoie Zabdiel," said sha "Nora and I aren't fools, nor yet children, and Madeline and Bess have treated us shamefully, and so we are going to be revenged by telling their secrets. They're going to have ao 'at home,' and they've invited a lot of grand people, and when thev got your letter they decided they didn't want you." "Hey?" cried Uncle Zabdiel.; r -< • "Yes," cried Eudora. taking up the thread of the discourse, "the mean, ungrateful things--after all that dear, delightful summer at Blackford farm, that saved Bess' good-for-noth­ ing life, they laughed at your cowhide boots and chin whiskers and Madeline made believe to cough .out loud jtat as you do sometimes and----" "Well, I declare," said Uncle Zab­ diel, relieving his bronchial tubes by the same identical cough and growing very red. "And so," again chimed ia Honora, "you were to be made to believe tbat we lived at 14 Currant Court and kept out of the way of the company." "They needn't put themsftlves to all that trouble," said old Uncle Zab­ diel, letting his head drop upon his two hands. "If they hadn't wanted me, why didn't they say ho9 I want i no one to peril their souls by telling falsehoods on my account" Both the girls flew at Uncle Zab­ diel with hugs and kisses. . "We love you, Uucle Zab!" said Dora vehemently. "We heard it all, even after Madeline drove us out of the room. We 1 istened at the register and we made up our minds you shouldn't be n "Deceived and pat upon!" Nora struck in. 4 'And please don't be vexed with us because we are Madeline's and Bess' little sisters! It's quite true what Do: a says. We do love you. We are tired of being scolded by the tfirls and snubbed by papa. Please, Uncle Zab, mayn't we go back to the farm with you and be dairy girls or milkmaids or something of that kind9 Fm awful fond of chickens, and Dora cau weed tbe onions and shell corn. Please.

That aint't my notion. farm to a railway, and I've made a j good bargain, so folks say. I guess I'm what my cousin, Judge Barches­ ter, would call a rich man, and I was I coming up here to end my days with j my relations and leave 'em my money after I was dead. But everything's different now, I'll hire a house here --Phebe Ransom--here in New York --and you and Lucy shall be my housekeepers. And I'll adopt Nora and Dora for my own. Yea, girls, I've no daughters and you shall take the pla« e to me," ' „/ .. ^ t, -•-> ., "Oh, dear Uncle Zabdiel!" ecsta* tlcaliy shrieked Dora and Nora with one accord. Bess Barcnester's "at home** was a very tame affair. The funny man did not come at all. Miss Da e had such a jGold that her voice, made no impression on the company. The wrong people all came and the right people stayed away. Altogether it scored as a failure, in spite of Madel­ ine's heroic efforts. , "By the way, girls," said the Judge as he open the raorulng paper at the morrow's late and insipid breakfast, "you must write for your old Uncle Cooper to come up here, and take some notice of him. It" seems *that he has sold the old place for a stu­ pendous price to some railroad com­ pany, which is going to build up a monster hotel there, with a lot of mineral springs or some such money making contrivance. Downes told me all about it at the club. They call the old man the Blackford mil­ lionaire,' I don't think he has many relations, but. ourselves. See to it Madeline, will you? You always were the family manager.'". "Yes;" said Madeline gloomily, "and I begin to think I've managed" all the life out of ,it," Uncle Zabdiel, however, declined to be taken siiiiie notice of," and great was the wrath of *he Judge and his two eldest daughters when they dis­ covered the march that Dora and Nora had stolen on them. "If your uncle wishes to adopt any one," fumed Judge Barchester, "there's Madeline has the family brains and Bess the family beauty." "And Nora and Dora have all the heart and soul there is in the family," quietly observed Uncle Zabdiel, "so i calcutate I won't alter my arrange­ ment--New York World Coia a' The veafttier reports trom ait extreme sta announce the early advent 61 severe waves Which will, for a protracted i gire owe region a taste of the frigid ! autt*.

General Passenger and Ticket Agent, Chicago, I1L Caste In in<lta« A story just published in tae India newspapers gives some idea of what caste means in that country. It ap­ pears that some time jf^o, in the neighborhood of Fyzabad, a man of the Ahlr or cowherd caste was carry­ ing a young calf home on his broad shoulders, when by some accident it slipped down and brolse lts neck. The Brahmans declared him to be outcast and sentenced him to the severest form of Hindu excommunication for six months. They further • told him that he could not have committed a greater sin than causing the death of a cow, but taking into consideration that he was, an uneducated man, they would deal very leniently with him. During the perioi of excommunica- tiod he was ordered to lead a life of mendicancy, and with a rope amund his neck, and a piece of the calf's tail on his shoulders, he was to perform pilgrimage to different Hindu shrines. The members of his family were for­ bidden to supply him with either shelter or food, under a penalty ot un­ dergoing similar excommunication. The Ahir recently returned to his vil­ lage, but until after the purification ceremonies he must live, in a tempo­ rary grass-thatched house which had been erected for him. A man of one of the lowest and most degraded castes has been se­ lected to purify him. A barber, after shaving the delinquent and paring the nails of his hands and toes, will make over the hair and nails to the low caste attendant, who will burn them and also set lire to the hut* Then the Ahir is to be covered with cowdung, after which he will take a plunge in the river Sarju, and come out purified. Even then he will not be re-admitted into caste fellowshlD until he had feasted flftv Brahmfis and 100 of his brethren. Napoleon W»H Conquered. ^Napoleon Bonaparte never could smoke, although when in Egypt he attempted to do so in order to please the people. On one occasion, when the Persian ambassador presented to him, on behalf of the shah, a very valuable and gorgeous pipe, "all dia­ monds and rare jewels," Napoleonfs attendant filled the pipe and a light was applied; but in the way the era-- pernr went to wcrk no smoke would have appeared until doomsday. He merely opened and shut his lips in the energetic manner of a mechani­ cal figure. Tbe attendant ventured to observe that his majesty was not proceeding in the usual manner, and showed him the correct way to man­ age his pipe of peace. But the inapt pupil persistently returned to his bad imitiatfton of yawning, until, tired and vexed with repeated failures, he at last desisted, saying, "Constant, do you light the pipe; 1 can not." So said, so done Ami we are informed that the pip«' was returned to him with the tobacco burning at a furious rate and a tre­ mendous amount of smoke. Soon veiled in vapor, the unfortunate Na­ poleon was again In ditllcultv: the smoke which he did not know how to get rid of went down his throat and up through his eyes and nose. As soon as Tie regained breath he gasped the words, "Take it awav! What an infliction! What pigs they must be who smoke! I am so ill!" And ill, we are told, he was for some time afterward, renouncing for evermore the "aeothiug weed." . , Deterioration of Rubber f A rubber expert, who has been mat­ ing in\estimations into the cause of the deterioration of rubber, has thrown a new light on the short ser­ vice derived from rubber hose in rail­ way work. It is found that the cop­ per salts which are used In various stages of the manufacture of certain classes of rubber goods, frequently tend to decompose or harden the ma­ terial. Metallic copper in contact with rubber causes the oxidation or hardening of the gum, although no appreciable amount of the metal may enter into it, hut zinc does not in any | way alfect it Oil containing even the smallest quantity of cDpper, is ! highly injurious to rubber goods, and I'v« sniH tho «1H i a'1 oi,s- except castor oil, exert a det­ rimental effect,linseed oil having also an acid which rots the cloth. One of the evidences of the decomposition of rubber is its strong odor, and when a piece of blotting paper is placei on decaying rubber it becomes discolored by some of the emanations, which does not cccur when the rubber Is in good condition. A MAN will do nearly anything you want him to do until he finds out you w a n t b i t n t o d o i t . * , N " * ' " : -•«-- •» 'rf ^V*• vy Fast Time. ,: r.} A fast run was recently made on the Chicago, Burlington and Quteey Kail- road between Gales burg and Chicago, a distance of 1624 miles, The actual time was three hours and forty-five minutes, including seven stops and four Blow-ups, so that excluding these de­ lays the average speed was fifty-four miles an hour. The fastest time dur­ ing tbe run was ma«!e on a down grade of 36 feet per mile, when the speed rose to seventy-three miles an hour. The locomotive had 19 by 24 inch cylinders and driving wheels 62 inches in diame­ ter. It was of the Mogul type and drew a train of ten cars, weighing 357 tons. The records o{ the run were taken by means of a dynamometer car and are probably entirely reliable. In this con­ nection it may be interesting to note how this compares with a recent fast run on the lamous Midiara line of En­ gland. The train, cons sting of a four- coupled locomotive followed by fifteen coaches, weighing 180 tons, left Helli- field and ran to Carlisle, a distance ot 764 miles, in minutes, or at the rate or forty-nine miles an hour. The great­ est speed at any time was sixty-seven miles an hour on a down grad« e£ $$ feet ptr mile. • W How's This?

A story is told of a well-known Judge who is noted for his fondness for con­ veying to jurors in his charges io them his own opinions with regard to the merits of the case. In on > case he had done so with great pla'nness, but to his amazement' the jury remained out for hours without coming to an agreement. The Judge inquired of the on ccr what was the matter, and learned from him that one juror was holding out against the other eleven. He sent lor the jury at once, and, stating to the jurors that he had plainly intimated how the case ought to be decided, said he understood that one juror was standiug out against the other eleven. He proceeded to re­ buke the juror sharply. The obstinate juror itoo a nort'Cuo little soon as tbe Judge was done he said: "Your Honor, may I say a word!"

A correspondent of the Boston Transcript says that the line originally read "A potent medicine for. gods and men," ana was misprinted "A patent medicine," etc. It is also re­ ported that Mr. Aldrich's equanimity was upset on another occasion because iu a serious mood he wrote another poem, "Xow the old wound breaks out afresh, * and' was horrified to learn by the type that he--a bachelor--had said "Now the old woman breaks out afresh."

This is turned to joy when Hood's iSarsaparilla is i esorted to, for It expels the foul humors from the blood, and restores the diseased skin to fresh, heaithy brightness. Bead the following from grateful parents: "To c. I. Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass.: "We think Hood's Sarsaparllla Is the most •aluahle medicine on the market for blood and skin diseases. Our two children suffered terribly with the Worst form of Eczema for two years. We had three physicians in that time, but neither of them succeeded In curing them or even in giving them a little relief. At last we tried Hood's Hsrsapsrilla and la a month both children were perieetty eured. We recommend Hood'® Sarsaparllla as a standard family medicine, and would not be without it." MB. and MRH.
