this man, he had actually killed him! He
endeavored to reject the idea as impossi-
bic, but at that very moment the door
opened and four men entered, bearing the
llieless and bloody body of Don Henriquez,
The doctor could not endure the specta-
Gle. He felt a sudden quivering in his
body and everything around him disap-
peared, he found himself on the
straw in the garnet of the inn keeper, op-
positc the broken window in the roof,
through which the rays of the sun were
shining.
His first emotion was one of delight
from having escaped such a terrible
VISION; then the remembrance Of what
had occurred the previous evening came
to him, and he understood it all. The po-
ton, taken on the faith of the Moorish
doctor, was one of those powerful narcot-
les which, exaltlng our faculties during
sleep, turn into dreams our habitual
thoughts and feelings. What he had taken
for reality was but a nocturnal vision.
Don Joseph meditated long in silence.
Then taking up the roll of parchment
which had remained upon his pillow. and
coming to the sentence which he had de
spised the night before he read it over
several times and then with much emo
ton said: " thought that in order to be
happy it was enough to have the power to
do as one might will, without considering
that the unrestrained will of man proceeds
from pride 10 extravaganza, from extrava-
gance to tyranny, and from tyranny to
cruelty. Alas the Moorish doctor is
right. orr scetkness IS a pr0oiaentidl
barrier ,chtch God sets up against or folly."
This dream so well protited Don Joseph
as to lead him to accept more patiently his
humble fortune; and he died, long time
at,erward, AS second major dome in the
chateau of which he hoped one time to be-
come the master --Christidn Union.

TIME OF NEED.
BY NJ. Z. n. HATHAWAY.

BY NJ. Z. N. HATHAWAY.
In olden days there lived man,
United to u simple wife,
Who worked from early dawn till eve,
And saved his earnings all his life.
He kept his precious hoard of wealth
safe in a bag, tied round and round,
Until the store of coins had grown
= In weight to balance many pound.
And when his easy wife would ask:
"What good is so much care and greed =
One answer always was returned:
I'm keeping this for time of need"
And so through patient, toilsome years
This was the burden of his song:
q 7 >. others spend; but will save,
Till time of need shall come along"
The story travelled far and wide;
And so it CHANGED stranger came,
Who entered at the humble door,
Accosting THUS the busy dame:
q Dear madam, am Time of Need!
I've iourneyed over land and sea
To claim the money your good man
Has kept in faithful charge for me-"
oOh deary mel" the dame replied.
INV husband will be vexed, indeed,
That he should be away from home
When you arrived, Sir Time of Need!'
" cannot wait" the stranger cried,
For business calls me to depart"
Then will get your own" she said
And give it you with all my heart"
She dragged the hidden treasure forth,
With eager haste and arduous pull;
While he exclaimed: 81 had not thought
To find my bag So large and full;
And fear cannot take it all,
Since | came hither on my feet"
On! ride the bob-t tailed horse" she said,
"And take the whole, l do entreat."
A lucky thought! And I'll return
The horse when next l pass this way"
So saving, mounted and enriched,
The gentle stranger rode away.
The dame was left rejoicing much
Thather good man from care was freed,
And now, at last, could rest from work
And think no more of Time of Need.

How fortunate" said he to himself,
" that the parchment of the Moorish doc
tor did not fall into the hands of man
ignorant avaricious or>carried away with
evil passions; but rather into those of an
hldalgo, reasonable in his wishes, master
OF himself and honored by the University
OF Salamanca. Thus humanity may be
sure OF him. Don Joseph Fuer d'Alcan-

abuse unlimited power In granting it
Providence has rated him according to
his worth and he has decided to justify by
his conduct its decision"
He resolved to give the first proof of
this by noderating his ambition In has

"A misfortune" cried the servant" a
misfortune. Don Henriquez has just been
fighting"
What, again?''
Yes, sir, and he has been wounded. I"
Dangerously
No, sir; but as he tried 30 pursue his
enemy he fell, and so aggravated his
wound that he tainted in the road"
" And they have just now found him
there?"
" Yes, sir, and coachman, without see
ing him, drove over him, crushing his
right arm"
:" Good hcavens"'
But they took him up to bring him
here"
Then he is safe"
All, mol while Just now coming
through the court beneath the scatiold
where the masons are al work, a great
stone fell and struck him dead"
Don Joseph started back as if before

Of his own doing. First, he had willef

The BOYS Rooms.

We wish especially, says. Scribner's
to urge upon mothers the propriety of
giving up to the boys, as soon as they
reach the age of twelve or fourteen,
one om(nOt bedchamber), for whose
reasonably good order they shall be
responsible, and which they shall con-
slider wholly their own. The floor
should be uncarpeted, of oiled wood I;
the furniture of the same material.
Let it be papered, crIrtained, decorated
according to the boys own fancy; if
the taste is bad, they will be interested
after awhile in correcting it. There
should be plain bookcases, a big solid
table in the center, by all means an
open fire, and room after that for Joe's
printing press, or Charley's box of
tools, or Sans cabinet of minerals; for
chess and checker boards, or any other
game which is deemed proper. To
this room the boys should be allowed
to invite their friends, and learn how
to be hospitable hosts even to the ex-
tent of an innocent little feast now
and then. Father, mother and sisters
should refrain from entering it except
as guests; and our word for it, they will
be doubly hOnOred and welcomed when
they do come.
Somebody will ask, no doubt, what
is the use of pampering boys in this
way, or of catering to them with
games and company? Simply because
they will have the amusement, the
games and company somehow and
somewhere; and if not under their
fathers roof, with such quiet surround
ings as beft those who are to be bred
as gentlemen. the games may be gam
bling, and the company and supper
those which, the nearest tavern affords.
As for the cost, no money is i'll spent
which develops in a right direction a
boys healthy character Of idiosyncra-
sizes at the most perilous period of his
life, or which helps to soften and
humanize him, and to make more dear
and attractive his home and family.
If it can be i'll spared, let it be with
drawn for this purpose from dress,
household luxury, the sum laid by for a
rainy day-even from other charities
and duties. We do not wish to help
the lad SOW his wild oats, but take care
that the oats are not wild, and are
thoroughly well sown.

Old Time Detectives.

A New York paper speaking of the
inefficiency and corruption of the detec-
tives of the present time relates this
anecdote of a detective of the last
generation:
One of our banks kept losing money,
only in small sums, yet the loss was
constant and mysterious. A celebrated
detective was called in. ''Let every
body leave the directors ROOM he
said. "Send in everybody, one by one,
who has had chance TO steal" 30
the president, the cashier, the tellers,
the book-keepers and clerks had pri-
vate interview with the detective.
Every one in the bank knew the pur-
pose of the visit, and all but one were
slightly nervous and uncomfortable I'M
der the searching questions Of the
chief. The last who entered was a
nephew of the president. He walked
in cool, unembarrassed and Indifferent,
and with an air that said proceed"
He was dismissed as well rs the rest
The detective said not a word, left the

had been shadowing the presidents
nephew. In a clear, fair hand, was
written out the whereabouts of the
young man for the past six days, the
companyhe kept, what he drank, the
hours ne spent on the road, his night
orgies, and all his movements by night
and by day. Nobody in the bank
knows to-day that the presidents
nephew was the thief That his health
was not good, that he was travelling in
Europe, and that his place in the
bank was filled by another, was well
known. The bank was saved from
robbery, the family from dishonor, the
detective commended for his skill and
prudence, and all the happier for
check of 81 900.

A MYSTERY IN MAINE.-A large
mound stands near the Maine Central
track, about a mile from the village OF
Cumberland Centre, and in plain sight
from the road. Mr.. Sweat, a track
man, has several times lately seen two
men standing near the mound and
pointing toward it. Last Tuesday
morning the mound was discovered to
have been disturbed. 1t had been dug
into in a slanting direction five feet and
then down five feet. The prints of a
box were plainly observable, two and
a half feet long by one and a quarter
feet broad. Mr.. Sweat's description of
one of the men answers to a man named
Elisha Philips, aged about seventy
years, who is native of the village,
and was convicted twenty or twenty
five years ago in Massachusetts, for rob
bling a Boston bank. At the time he
pretended to be able to point out where
the treasure was hid to the officers, but
ran away from them and was afterwards
recaptured. His term of imprison-
ment must have expired not very long
ago, and the villagers think he has re
turned for the bank treasure.
