"The Story Of a Nine" by Bret

is an uncommon story, considering
that Mr.. Harte is the author, for
the worst woman in it is only a

mitg one small murder, Theirs is
a neat tribute to Massachusetts, in
the shape of a kindly description
of Senator Sumner, which will be
gratefully welcomed lust now, Whaa
neither sHmner nor Massachusetts
are receiving too much potting
from the country at large. The
heroine, Carmen de Haro, goes to
WashingtoH, hOnins TO Illustrate
her fathers fraudulent claim to a
mine and to secure it for her lover.
She effects this by inducing Mr..
Sumner to make q sevan heurs'
speech at the very end of the ses-
sion, and thus consigning her faith

development of science and philos-
ply to teach that there is one
grand law Of the universe to which
all are subject and from which it is
highly impossible that any special
departure will be made. 1t is not
thus that Providence deals with us.
The rain falls alike on the Just and
unjust, and were it within the
problems of the Divine Mind to
cure one poor woman of consump-
ton or one poor man of infamma-
tory rheumatism, the same favor
would be extended to all; or, were
it intended as grand demonstra-
ton of power, and a convincing ar
gument in favor of Immortality or
any doctrine of the church, it would
not come through any doubtful
channel or be open to the jibes Of
the newspaper reporters and the
jeers of the commonalty. 1t is not
thus that He works who holds the
world in the hollow of His hand,
and writes His greatness upon the
scroll Of the heavens. Indeed, all
such nonsense as this at Mauch
Chunk is the reverse Of any proof
of Divine interposition; it proves
merely how much there is yet to
overcome of ignorance in the hu-
man mind. There is q lower as
well as an upper realm of thought,
and when such stories as these are
palmed off and greedily swallowed.
a loud call is made for the school
master. It is not a case for thu
churches to handle, but for tha
broad catholicity of science which
ought to be able to solve every ques
ton relating to the body, It's dis
eases, and their cure.

The little speech had its effect.
The crowd began to thin out at the
edges and swearingly steal away.
In half an hour more only a thou
sand or two of people were left
hanging about, idly and to all ap.
pearances without purpose; and
most of these were women.

DR.. Wilson, a prominent English
physician, says in a recent paper in
the Lancet:
For the active, outdoor laborer
and artisan, an early breakfast be-
fore work, midday dinner, with
an interval Of rest, and supper af.
ter the days work is over have long
been proved by experience to be the
most conducive to health. For the
business man a later breakfast, a
midday luncheon aud a late dinner
after the days work is over, is the
best arrangement. For literary men
who write more in the evening than
during the day, an early dinner and
light supper will be found to be
the most advantageous for steady
work. Idlers, to enjoy life, if they
possibly can, should dine early if
they intend to spend the evening at
the theaters and the like; but il
they accept dinner invitations freely
they should be careful not to eat
too much at the midday meal. The
breakfast hourshould be determined
in great measure by the hour of
rising, but in any case food should
be partaken of before the material
business Of the day is commenced,
Those who like to take a "consti-
tutional" before breakfast would
find their appetite whetted and
their work made all the more en-
IjOyable if they took a little milk OF
caf-au. .lait, with bread or biscuit,
before starting. Work done before
breakfast is always irksome and fa-
tiguing, and on that account is very
badly done. The last meal should
be sufficiently late for the whole
not to be absorbed before retiring
to rest. TO a person in health three
meals a day ought to be quite suf
ficient, and the practice of continu
ally taking something" is sure tt
bring on indigestion.

ProvIdence in a "Reer. ;,
Philadelphia Times

Philadelphia Times
Down by the West India wharf
the other morning crowds of men
gathered around the corners and
on the sidewalk discussing the loss
Of the Metropolis. Apart from the
crowd, against the wall of build
ing, stood three men-one tall
individual, with brown mustache
and chin-whiskers, and dressed, as
were his companions, like wharfng-
ers. The tall man was talking
rapidly and excitedly, and aiding
articulation by sundry motions of
finger and thumb. 1t was John
Hannipg, wharf commissioner, first
| Junk man, and, by his own account,
at one time in his life "a case"
cit was terrible" said John, his
small, steely blue eyes swapping
with excitement. "Suppose YOU or
had gone on that boat. Where
would we be now? Those men that
went on it could not forsee the
danger ahead. And those that in
tended to go, but didn't; what a
narrow escape they had. A man
named Hotferon-a rolling.mill
man, out of work-took a notion
he'd 90 to Brazil. His wife didn't
want him to go, nor did his chill
dren. HeiIeron wouldn't listen to
reason. His wife and children
pleaded, but in vain. HefferOn got
angry at them standing in his way,
and all their pleading only made
his resolution stronger. His neigh.
bors reasoned with him for his
wife's sake, but he turned a deaf
ear to all. When the Metropolis
was about to leave, HelIeron was on
board with his trunk. Even then
his wife did not give up, but went
aboard, with her children. With
tears they again besought him not to
go. His neighbors also still fol
lowed and reasoned with him. But
it did no good. They mightas vel
have spoken to a rock. Everybody
that went on board to say goodbye
had left the boat, and Hefferon',
wife and children stood on the
wharf crying. A few moments be
fore the boat pulled off a friend OF
Hefferon's ran aboard and asked
him to come off and take a 'beer
before he left, for old acquaintance
sake. Seeing the saloon was near
Hefferon did not object. While
they were in the saloon another
friend ran aboard and got his trunk
of. When Hetferon came out the
steamer was gone. He had nc
money to hire IL boat to oyertake
her, and his friends would not loan
him any. All he could do Was to
rage and boil over on the wharf.
Hefferon is at home, alive and well,
but had he not accepted that invi-
tation to take a drink he might now
be lying stark and dead on The Cur
rituck beach. Some would say that
it was chance that saved him, but
| call it special providence.
