Glad enough Of the sngracious per.
mission, and answering not sound, the
child crept trembling to his bench. He
felt strangely, dizzily-more as If he
was in dream than in real life, and Law.
ing bis arm on his desk, bowed down his
face between them. The pupils turned
to their accustomed studies, for, during
the reign Of Lugare in the village school,
they had been so used to scenes of vio-
lcnce and severe chastisement, that such
things made but little interruption in the
tenor of their way.
Now, while the intervening hour is
passing, VIC will clear up this mystery of
the bag, and of young Baker being un-
der the garden fence the preceding eve
ming.
The boys mother was widow, and
they both had to live in the very mar
rowest limits. His father had died when
he was six years old, aud little Tim was
left a sickly, emaciated infant, whom no
one expected to live many months.
10 the surprise Of all, however, the poor
child kept alive, and seemed to recover
his strength, as he certainly did his
size aud good looks.
This was owing to the kind offices
OF an eminent physician, who had q
country seat in the neighborhood. aud
who had been interested in the Widows
little family. Tim, the physician said,

mined not TO be worried in his mind
about little floggiug, for the thought Of
it cant even keep the little scoundrel
awake"
Lugare smiled again as he made the
last observation. He grasped the rattan
firmly and descended from his seat.
With light and stealthy steps he crossed
the room and stood by the unlucky
sleeper.
The boy was still unconscious of his
impending punishment as ever. He
might be dreaming some golden dream
Of youth and pleasure J; perhaps he was
far away in the world Of fancy, seeing
scenes aud feeling delights which cold
reality never can bestow.
Lugare lifted his rattan high over his
head, and with the true and expert aim
which be acquired by long practice,
brought it down on Tins back with a
force and whacking sound, which see ned
sufficient to wake freezing man in bis
lethargy.
Quick and fast blow followed blow.
Without waiting to zee the effect of his
first cut, the brutal wretch piled his in
strnment of torture, first on one side OF
the boys back, and then on the other,
and only stopped at the end Of two OF
three minutes from mere WEAKNESS
BIT still Tim showed no sign Of mo-
ton, and as Lugare, provoked at his tor
pidity, jerked away one of the child's
arms, on which he had been leaning
over the desk, his head dropped from his
grasp, and his eyes stretched wide open,
glsred at some monstrous spectacle Of
horror and DEATH, The sweat started in
great globules seemingly from, every pore
