thi C&si OogpytigMid Ml tqr Setm* Bon&Wi CHAPTER HI. Love in Danger. A bright, beautiful morning; with a geatle breeze sweeping down the frag­ rance of flower and shrub from the mountain slope. Ulin had eaten her breakfast, and, with Albia by her side, sat upon an open window, gazing out upon the park of fountains. As she thus sat, the slave woman Calypso en­ tered the apartment and announced that the robber wished to see the lady H#n. fWhat robber?" asked the princess. *The same one that came yester­ day." Ulin did not stop to think whether the visit would be pleasant or other­ wise. The man had signified his pur­ pose; and as he was master in the pal­ ace, she had no idea of opposing him. Calypso withdrew, and presently af­ terwards the robber entered. He came In with the same noble step and bear­ ing; the same pleasant, genial face; and with the same look and salute of reverence and respect. "I trust that the Lady Ulin has pass­ ed a quiet night," he said, in deep sin­ cerity. "I have rested well, sir," she re­ plied. "Good.'I am glad of th$t I feared jwu might have bad dream*." "Not many, sir." *Ah--and did you have any such?* ••Not--not many." *You dreamt that Julian was a 4ft* »»n, eh?" . 'i ."No, no, sir--my dreams were not Of him." _ - I h o p e , s w e e t l a d y , t h a t y o u d r e a m - tif not darkly of me,** ^ - "No, sir. It was of--•" ^ The maiden hesitated, and see troubled; but her-visitor came to her assistance. "Never mind, lady. I meant not to inquire into the secret twlnings of your mind. I only hoped that I had not been unfortunate enough to ex- eite the apprehension of your slumber­ ing fancies." He smiled as he spoke, at the same time moving a step nearer, and then adding: "I am glad you have not suffered from our coming; for I have the more courage to ask you if you will see Julian." "You said y«u would accompany him, sir." #'Yes." . . "Then I may as well see him at ona time as another. You may inform him that the lady Ulin rests her safety and honor in his manhood." „ "He has been so informed, fair Iftfty." 1'Then, let him come." ^ " "Gentle lady, pardon me^f l have led you upon a fanciful way of thought. I am Julian. I am he whom men call the Scourge of Damascus. And now I crave your indulgence; but •till I shall bow most humbly to your commands. At your word I leave this apartment; yet, I should like to speak a little further. I should like to ex­ plain more fully why I am here." Was Ulin frightened? Not at all. fihe was startled when she first knew that the man before her was the dread­ ful Scourge of whom she had heard so much; but it was an emotion of as­ tonishment. At first she could hardly believe that she had heard the truth. "You--Julian?" she murmured, gas- into his face. "'Aye, lady." And then he added, With a smile, "I suppose you expected tq^ find me black and ugly, like the foul genii whom Solomon Imprisoned ta the sea. Am I right?" "I did not think you were Julian," the maiden said, after some hesitation. As she spoke she seemed to gain new confidence and composure; and pres­ ently she added, 'T had heard so much of your terrible deeds, that I expected to find a--" "A monster," suggested Julian, help­ ing her out. ?'Not exactly that," returned Ulin, with a smile, "though I am free to confess that I should not have been so much surprised as I have been, if I had seen a worse looking man." "Thank you," cried the robber laughing. "I shall take that as a com­ pliment, and lay it up among the most precious of iny recollections. I under­ stand you; so, upon this point, I need only assure you that I am Julian, and I must own the somewhat dubious title which has been bestowed upon me. And now, lady, may I sit here for a few moments, and speak with you further?" The very thing Ulin had been upon D|e point of suggesting. She did not like to see him standing before her; nor was She anxious that he should leave her. She had a strong curiosity to hear him speak further. There was something in the appearance of the youthful adventurer that deeply inter­ ested her. She bade him be seated, aid then, without intending to be heard, she murmured: /jf"So young!" * i"Aye, lady," he said, catching the "Whispered words. "I am young-- younger, perhaps, than I look. Only three-and-twenty years have cast their shadows upon me. At that age the youth of the city Just breaking from the bonds of parental restraint,is as a child; but with me it has been differ­ ent A parent I never knew. A kind, generous woman, who was my nurse, took the place of a mother during my earliest childhood; and a white-haired old man, who lived apart from the - World, gave me my first lessons of life, and led me up till I could protect myself. A father's fostering care I never knew. A mother's love I never realised. The cruel blow which shat tered the cup of my joys, killed my poor mother ere my tongue could lisp her name. As I grew to manhood I knew that I was an orphan, and that my misfortune was the work of the ?In» of Damascus. O! how the iron Settled into my souL I had grown strong and resolute, as though heaven ) would enable me to work retribution «pon the tyraat Do you ask me If I enjoy the life I have led. I answer-- I have made enjoyments for myself. I have felt a peculiar satisfaction In knowing that the king feared me.« When I have heard my name spoken by the rich and powerful with fear and trembling, I have liked it; and when I have known that Horam dread­ ed my approach, I have felt that my labors were not without their result. But these have not been my Joys. In Damascus the name of Julian is a ter­ ror; but there are other places where that name is spoken with love and gratitude. Upon the plains of Abilene, and in the mountain passes of Leban­ on, where the busy craftsmen prepare timber for Jerusalem--there Julian is hailed as a friend and benefactor. The grim satisfaction of torturing the cruel King of Damascus is tempered and softened by the calmer atmos­ phere of these friendly regions." Why did Ulin sit 90 still and listen with such rapt attention to the words of the speaker? She bent her head as though soft music were stealing o'er her senses; and she gazed upon the man before her as though a grand, in­ spiring picture had been unfolded to her vision. His words carried truth in their very sound, and all her sympa­ thies had been aroused. She was a woman whose nature had not been warped by art; and the avenues to her soul were guarded only by the pure, instincts of virtue and humanity. Not always the safest guard; but still the happiest when surrounding influences are not evil. "And now, lady," pursued Julian, "X must tell you why I am here; and in doing this 1 speak only those words necessary to the truth. On my way from the plains I met a messenger, who informed me that a fair maiden had been shut up in the Palace of the Valley. I could not believe that a beau­ tiful young virgin had willingly given herself to the desires of Horam. I thought she had been shut up thus against her own pleasure. With this belief I resolved to release her. The result you know. I have heard your story from the lips of the black slave who attends upon you, and she in­ forms me that you are affianced to the king by your own consent; and without any desires on your part to the con­ trary. Is it so?" "The slave told you truly, sir," re­ plied Ulin, bowing her head, apd speaking in a very low tone. "And you came here to this place of your own free will?" "Yes, sir. My period of mourning was not passed, and the king brought me hither that I might be more re­ tired." "And but for the death# ^ your mother you would have been the king's wife ere this?" Ulin replied in the affirmative; but her voice trembled, and she seemed to shudder at the thought thus presented. "Lady," said Julian, showing some emotion, which he evidently did not mean to show, "for my seeming wrong I most humbly beg your pardon. I had thought to wrest from the grasp of the king one who was an unwilling cap­ tive; but since I find myself mistaken I will do all I can to make amends. A "And," said the robber, rising to his feet, "it is better that I should leave you at once." He stopped, and swept his hand across his brow, and when he resumed, his speech was very low, and his voice tremulous: "This has been a most strange ad­ venture; and as I now look upon It, it seems as though some mischievous sprite had planned it. As I live I thought when I came hither but such as I have told you of. I have met you, lady, and for the first time in my life I have felt my heart drawn warmly towards my native city. Henceforth there will be something in Damascus towards which my thoughts will turn with other sentiments than those of bitterness. Lady Ulin, we may never meet again. In this moment of our strange companionship, may I not take you by the hand?" She could not have refused had she wished; but that she had no wish so to do was evident from the free and friendly manner in which she arose to meet him. She gave him her hand, and suffered him to raise it to his lips. "Dear lady, should we never meet again, I trust that you will bear one kindly thought of Julian. If you are forced to think of the wrongs he has done, let a memory of the wrongs he has suffered be some extenuation. Bless you, lady! All good spirits guard and protect ypu; and peace be thine forevermore! Farewell!" He turned and was gone. Ulin felt a warm spot upon her hand--a drop of moisture--a tear! She gazed upon it, and knew that it came not from her eye. It fell there with the kiss. A strange tribute from the 8courge of Damascus! "Albia, I think I shall never see that man again; but I shall remember him with emotions far removed from fear or terror." "You will remember him as little as possible, my mistress," said the slave girl, taking a seat close by Ulin'a side, and resting her hand upon her arm. "What mean you, Albia? Why should my memory be narrowed or shortened?" "Because you are to have a husband who will demand your every thought and feeling. Horam is deeply versed in all the secrets of the female heart, and his eyes will not sleep while you have a thought which he does not understand." "Indeed, Albia," erled the princess, with a look of amazement, "you mis­ understand me." "If such be the case," replied the gin, very quietly, *you will forgive me for what I have said; and of Julian we will think no more." Ah--was it so? Had Ulin been mis­ understood ? Had the keen-eyed Albia been mistaken? Would there be no more thought of Julian? '$a ̂ ./v. ifin The day pasij^>; ivittv eveningAawad returned from the motro- tains. He said he had not fled from fear of the robbers; but that, when he saw that defeat was inevitable, he had sought safety from capture so that he might communicate with Damascus. Perhaps he old the truth. At all events, he resumed his command, and once more posted his guards about the valley; and then came to assure the princess that she was safe. It was in the evening, just as the last gleams of day were fading out, and before the lamps had been lighted it that season when the thoughts are most apt to wander and atrange fancies visit the mind. • • • It was not to be that Ulin should spend the alloted time at the Palace of the Valley. The king had heard at the attack of Julian, and he came with a large army to bear the princess away from a place which was no longer safe. He was somewhat sur­ prised when he found that the Scourge of Damascus had been within the pal­ ace, and had withdrawn again; and when he had heard the story from Calypso, he ordered one half the pal­ ace guadsmen to be executed within the valley. The maiden had heard from Calypso of the bloody deed which had been done by the king's order, and when she knew that he was coming, she declar­ ed her Intention of refusing, to see him. But Albia persuaded -her to a different course. "As you value your future welfare," plead the bondmaiden, "so must you behave before the king. If you would live in peace, let him have no occasion to mistrust your real feelings. He is coming. Beware!" The warning was most seasonable; and Ulin, by obeying it so conducted herself that Horam thought she only suffered from the dreadful fright oc­ casioned by the appearance of the ter­ rible Julian. He spoke to her words of cheer and assurance, and announced his purpose of carrying her back to Damascus. "We will rest tonight, sweet love," he said, "and on the morrow you shall find a safer shelter." Ulin gazed upon the wrinkled face, and upon the quaking limbs, ahd upon the sparse gray hairs; and she cou d not repress a., shudder. She looked upon the-thin, hard hands of the mon­ arch, and they seemed covered with blood. She watched him as he depart­ ed with her father; and when he had gone she sank down, and leaned her head upon Albla's bosom. "O," she murmured, "I fear that I have undertaken more than I can 'ac­ complish. I cannot be that man's wife! I never knew him until now. He will kill me!" "Peace!" whispered the bondmaid­ en. But she whispered in ; > (To be Continued.)^ CT< EXAMININO THE DOCTORS. Partially Kdaaatad MtiMmm MemM Health of tb« Pnbllo. Medical examinations In this State are strict, but not severe, says the Philadelphia Times. Certainly no per son should be allowed to take human life into his hands unless he was able to answer the few questions that are asked, and yet those who fail consider their 'fate a personal hardship. They probably forget the interests of the people they would practice upon, if al lowed to hang out their signs. Con sider for a moment that in many other states in this country young men en­ ter at once into the practice of medi­ cine from imperfectly managed schools which turn them out in short order. If put to the Pennsylvania test, they could never practice medicine, but with imperfect educations, with scant training, and as a rule with little na tural aptitude for the work, they physic (the body and occasionally op­ erate upon it with knives and - saws. Considering the thousands of partially educated doctors who are turned upon the country every year, it is wonderful that the longevity of the nation is in­ creasing. Still that may be explained by the fact that most sensible people nowadays are not taking medicine ex cept under compulsion, and many of our best doctors are stronger in de­ mands about food, exercise and fresh air than they are about their prescrip­ tions. The wife of one of the most successful and most noted physicians in this country complained the other day that she never got an opportunity to give her children medicine,* except when the doctor was called out of town.--Philadelphia Times. ECCENTRIC WILLS. BwJtBli Franklin Uft < Whleh Is Now Aval labia. When Benjamin Franklin died,, in 1790, he left a small sum of money, which was not to be used until the twentieth century. His gift is at last available, and the sum now amounts to $375,000, having been invested at compound interest, says the Pittsburg Press. The trustees of the Franklin fund have decided to use the money for the erection of a Franklin insti­ tute in Franklin square, Boston. Curi­ ous provisions made by will are more common than one would suppose. Within the last few months, there have been several examples of eccentric dis­ posals of property. To one young woman has been left $25,000 by her brother under the express condition that she neither marries nor becomes a nun. If the conditions are not ful­ filled, the money is to be distributed among other relatives. To his three daughters an Italian who recently died left $o00 a year each if they remained single and $2,500 each a year if they married. A late member of the En­ glish parliament left by will to his two daughters $720,000, with the provision that the money is only to be payable 11 they attain the age of 35 years, without marrying either a citizen of the United States or a Hebrew. • mew claimant for the fortune left by the composer Verdi has appeared. He is a farmer named Verdi,living near Athens, Greece.

NOT AS BAP AS THEY LOOKED. lofllthiaM'* Cm of a Word Had* Him fluwn An Unpublished episode of the late Matthew Arnold's vliit to this coun­ try in 1883-4 Is interesting In that it shows that, while many Americans show bad manners abroad, some Eng­ lishmen are equally guilty of a lack of when away from home. In 1883-4 Matthew Arnold lectured in this coun­ try. He brought with him his daugh­ ter. At Baltimore they visited the fam­ ily of the late Mr. Whittredge, a rich ship owner, to whom the Arnolds had been very polite in England. At the breakfast there were buckwheat cakes. In those days the buckwheat cake did not look as it does now. It was a thick, soggy, indigestible-looking mass, but it was good to the taste. A stranger, it can be said for the dis­ tinguished Englishman, was excusable fof looking on it with suspicion. When the cakes were passed the daughter refused them. Mr. Arnold took one, to be polite, and found it good. So when they were again passed to his daughter he said: "You had better take some, daughter; they are not half so nasty as • they look." An Englishman, in defending Mr. Ar­ nold, said that he used the word as it is used in England, where it has not the same meaning as it has here.~- New York Times. «*» Girt*.

His parishioners are scattered over a large area, and he has n<£ yet seen them all, although he has made as many calls as his other duties permit. His round brought him one day to the house of a little old lady who was nearly eighty-five and bedridden. She was delighted to see him, and when he rose to go, after a long call, she told him how much pleasure he had given her. "Now I want you to go to see the girls," she said, earnestly, "the Talcott girls. They were up here a few days ago, and tney're looking for- •yrard to a call from you. Living alone as they do, since their ma and pa died, they have some pretty lonesome times, and they set a great deal by callers." "I certainly will try to go there soon," said the young minister, and when he met one of the deacons of the church on his way home he spoke of the old lady's request. "I think I don't know the girls by sight," said the young man, "but I didn't wish to hurt the old lady's feelings by saying so. Where do they sit?" The deacon smiled. "In the last pew but one in the gallery," he said. "But I hardly think you would recognize them as girls.

Wallace, Mich., (August 26th: --A striking example of ft man's dutiful and attentive care of his mother is seen in Mr. Oscar Swanson of this place. Mr. Swanson's mother has suffered much with Kidney and Urinal Trouble and Female Weakness. Her son has sought out and procured for her every­ thing that he thought could possibly benefit her.
