Punishment of Envy.

An eastern potter, it is said, became en-
vious of the property of washerman, and
to ruin him, induced the king TO order him
to wash ono of his black elephants white,
that he might be "lord of the white ele-
phant, which in the East is quite dis
tinction. The washerman replied that, by
the rule of his art, he must have vessel
large enough to wash him in. The king
ordered the potter to make him such n
vessel When made it was crushed by the
first step of the elephant in it, Many times
was this repeated and the potter was
ruined by the very scheme he had intended
should crush his enemy.

breakfast dishes.
All day they never spoke on the subject,
but on retiring to bed, Jessie found her
mistress in her bedroom wrapped in a
shawl.
"Fm ready you see, " she said, and Jessie
merely loosened some buttons and hooks,
and lay down dressed.
Ten o'clock -eleven-twelve.
Mrs. Culverton began to doubt, when sud
denly she saw Jesses eyes dilate in
strange manner, and in an instant more,
the girl said:
Why, here he is, ma'am y
"There's no one here" said Mrs. Cul-
vertOn.
"Oh, yes, maam, see him. said the
girl. =" He's in great excitement, ma'am,
he's taking out his watch to look at and
the chain is made of such bright, yellow
hair thought it was gold"
" His wifes hair" said Mrs. Culverton.
" 1t was buried with him. You see old
Uncle Hiram. Does he look at meP'
"Yes, ma am, " said Jessie. ....
"Uncle said Mrs. c., do you know me
after so many years.
"He mods" said the girl.
"Have you come to help us, dear uncle ?'
said the lady. ...,
Uncle Hiram was described as nodding
very kindly and beckoning.
"IIe wants us to follow him." said the
lady, and took up the light. The moment
she opened the door, Jessie saw the figure
pass throughit Mrs. Culverton still could
see nothing.
Obedient to the girls movements, Mrs.
Culverton descended the stairs and entered
the library
The ghost paused before bookcase.
=" lie wants me to open it, " said Jessie.
"Do so," said the lady.
"He signs to take down the books" said
the girl
And Mrs. Culverton's own hands went
to work. Book after book was taken down
novels and romances, poems and plays.
A pile of volumes lay upon the library
carpet and still the ghost pointed to the
rest :ill they were all down.
He looks troubled ma'am lie seems
trying to think" said the girl.
"Oh, ma am, he's to the other case ~
And so, to cut long story short, the
four great bookcases were emptied without
apparent result.
Suddenly Jessie screamed:
"He's in the air. He has risen, ma am,
to the top of the book case. He wants to
climb up"
Get the steps, JESSIE" said her mistress,
and Jessie obeyed.
On the top of one of these cases, and
covered with cobwebs, she found an old
German book, and brought it down.
"This was there" she said. Mrs. Cul-
verton took it in her hand and from be-
tween the leaves dropped folded paper,
fastened with red tape and sealed
The lady picked it up and read on the
outside these words:
"IHe last acM and testament of Hiram
Hardy"
For little while she could only weep and
tremble; soon she found words. r,, s..
"Dear Uncle" she said, Gin the name
of my husband and my dear children,
thank you from my SOUL" .u's
Do you think he hears me, Jessie ?"
Yes, ma'am, he mods and smiles,"
said the girl ..l
He has gone,' said the girl. " He
waved his hand and has gone"
And so he had gone for good, for from
that moment he was never seen again by
mortal eyes.
