"You said you would give one hun
dred dollars for them," said Victor
and here they are" ar- III esq
Adrian burst into peal of laughter
as Lefty turned her perplexed face
from him to the child. ar
"What was your mother thinking of
to let you do such crazy thingT' said
she, sharply. woo
Mamma didn't know; but she said
she would give her eyes for one hundred
dollars-and there was nothing more to
eat. Here Victor, who had not looked
for such a reception, broke into loud
sobs, in which he was joined by Marie.
There, there, little ones, don't cryW
said Lefty, the tears starting to her
own eyes, Venus, bring plates for the
children. You shall take breakfast with
me, and then | will 90 with you TO see
your mother" III .f..i. uI
Mrs. Lorelli has just begun to wodern
where the children were when she heard
their voices They rushed in, talking
both at once, and very fast. Behind
them was gracious vision; beaming,
pitiful face, wreathed in golden hair;
light young figure that crossed the room
and held out her hand to the wondering
woman, who, looking into the gentle
eyes, read there so sweet an assurance of
sympathy and help, that che could only
weep, and kiss the tender hand. ala
The evil days we're indeed at an end
for the Lorell family. Lefty dis
covered that Mrs. Lorelli had very
pure French accent and that her own
ho1 cla cd har
her pupil, and was soon Joined by as
many as the French lady could teach.
She found, too, use for the heaps of
underclothing that had been thought
indispensable to her trousseou, and we're
following, unused, in her trunks.
1t was very nice to give away, and
Lefty could do this so sweetly that the
most sensitive pride could not take
offense.' Furthermore, Lefty gave
portion of her attention to Marie, and
made her the neatest little maid in all
the town. Victor was sent to school.
He became prodigy at his books,
though he was always dreamer, absent
minded and credulous.
But the greatest good, after all was to
Lefty. Her ministrations did not end
with the Lorelli family. She was like
the man in the Eastern story, whose eyes
were anointed, and he opened them
upon all the treasure of the genii. A
new world was revealed to Lefty, rich
in precious opportunities for doing
good. I.t.
Lefty has treasure-box. Even in
her girlhood it held precious collection
white stones to mark happy days,
pressed flowers given by loved hands,
her grandmother wedding-ring, her
canary-bird's feathers. AS the years
crept by, dearer treasures were added /;
a baby's curl, bit of christening
robe, husbands love-letter. But to-
day, among them all, there is none she
looks at more tenderly than little
jewel-box that holds parcel wrapped
in silver paper, and bears on its outside
the label Dear Eyelashesn

Electric Time-keeping.

Prof. S. P. Langley writes in Harper's
Magazine for April: Imagine piece of
iron (called the "armature " suspended
in every telegraph station between a
plate of sonorous metal and coil of
wire, the coil being a continuation of
the telegraph wire outside, which con-
duets the electric current into the build
ing through the coil, round an iron core,
out, and on again to the next station.
While the current is passing through
the coil it exercises that very magnetic
virtue" the early Spectator dreamed
of, the armature" being attracted and
held as firmly to it as by common
magnet. If the wire on the telegraph
poles were cut, and the severed ends
separated by so much as the hundredth
of an inch, the current would cease
all along the line at once at once every
"armature" would be set free, and,
falling back against the resonant metal
behind it, produce a sound distinctly
and simultaneously heard at every sta
ton. When the wires are Joined the
current leaps in a fraction of a second
through thousands of miles, the coils
regain their attractive power as sud-
NtChIg % ipo0 lty UuC IuldtuitS move
again, to fall back and sound once more
when the next interruption comes, and
so on, without end so long as the "cir-
cult" is unbrokeD, and the distant bat
terry, which sends the impulse, is fed
with its zinc and acid fuel.
At certain hour in every day, in
any one of the principal offices of the
railroad-at Jersey City or at Philadel-
phia, for instance--thers is a moments
pause in the. rattle Of the telegraphic
instruments, and Their in one of them
we. see and hear the armature moving
back and forth, not with the irregular
motion impressed upon it by the opera
tors finger, but with a uniform beat
every second. 1t sounds like a clock
ticking somewhere in the room; it is a
clock ticking, but the clock is many
hundreds of miles away, and it is mark
ing of minutes and seconds in this
manner, at one and the same moment
in hundreds of points, in distant cities,
or scattered along some thousands of
miles of main or branch roads.

On a Coffee Plantation.

from "a Trip to Central America /" scribner for
= ...t. March,
Coffee culture is very interesting, and
the growing crop is very beautiful. The
trees at maturity are from FIVE to eight
feet high they are well shaped and bushy,
with glossy, dark-green foliage, and
planted eight or nine feet apart. The
flowers are in clusters at the root of the
leaves, and are small, but pure white
and very fragrant The fruit has rich
color, and resembles q small cherry or
large cranberry; it grows in clusters,
close to the branches, and when it
becomes deep red is ripe and ready to
be gathered. The trees are raised from
seed, and do not Begin to yield until the
third year. In Central America they
bear well for twelve OF fifteen years, al
though, in exceptional cases, trees twenty
years old will yield an abundance of
fruit. The tree is particularly beautiful
when in full bloom or when laden with
ripe fruit. .
The process of preparing coffee for
market is as follows the ripe berries when
picked are at first put through machine
called the " despulpador," which removes
the pulp; the coffee-grains, of which
there are two in each berry, are
still covered with a. sort of glutinous
substance, which adheres to the bean !;
they are now spread out on large
patios," made especially for this pur-
pose, and left there, being occasionally
tossed about and turned over with
wooden shovels until they are perfectly
dry. They are then gathered up and
put into the retrilla,' circular trough
in which heavy wooden wheel, shod
with steel, is made to revolve, SO as to
thoroughly break the husk without
crushing the BEAM The chafT is separ-
ated from the grain by means OF fan
ning-mill, and the coffee is now thor
oughly dry and clean. After this, it is
the custom of some planters to have it
spread out on long tables and carefully
licked over by the Indian women and
children, all the bad beans being thrown
out 1t only remains then to have it
put into bags, weighed and marked, be-
fore it is ready for shipment to the port.
On some of the larger plantations this
process is greatly simplifed, with con-
siderable saving in time and labor, by
the use of improved machinery for dry.
ing and cleaning the coffee.
