CHAPTER VI.
STILL OBDURATE.

The little bell had not stopped it's tinklng
summons on the following morning Wien
Geotfrey took his usual seat in Mrs. Will
liams pew but Mrs. Elton was in her place
before him, and Cecirs golden head popped
up to nod to his new friend in spite OF his
mothers OBTAINING hand. Her eyes were
never once turned toward him, and, as she
sat in the church at right angles with him,
Geoffrey's thoughts were q good deal dis
tracted by watching the perfect profile, the
long black lashes, and the pure oval OF the
delcately tinted cheek She looked lovelier
than ever in her white dress and bonnet, the
faint pink roses matching the pure, clear
skin, and Geofrey thought, again and
again:
"How wish l were an artist! What a
perfect study she would make for Ma
donna"
There was almost triumph in his glance
as he met Eva Dayrells eyes. Gould she
help admiring such faultless beauty, to
which it was an insult to apply the word
'pretty"?
Poor Eva's heart was sick and heavy
through that long morning service. She
saw, though he was unconscious of her
watching, how Geofrey's eyes sought that
exquisite young face again and again with a
look in them that she had never seen there
before. She was quite ignorant of the fact
that he had spoken to Mrs. Elton but three
times in his life; but, had she known it, it
would not have brought much comfort to
her. No man can hide from woman that
loves him his infatuation for another, and
that Geofrey was utterly infatuated by this
mysterious stranger was evident to Eva's
eyes, though others, watching him less
closely, failed to perceive it. He did not
Join Mrs. Elton at the end of the service,
and, unwilling to follow her too closely, he
let the Abbey party get between them: AS
he reached the porch, however, he heard
Cecil exclaim Mamma here comes Mr..
Godfrey! Oh, do wait for him y but he
made no effort to catch them. Evp heard
the words, and her heart sank at the chid's
knowledge of Mr.. Chetwynd's Christian
name. Did the widow call him by it al
ready? Then they must be engaged, or she
was no fit person for Lady Temple to visit.
"Dont let us keep you from your friends,
she said bitterly as Geoffrey shook hands
with her. ''You must be very intimate to
have already got to Christian names. "
He looked at her in grave surprise, and
again q suspicion that Tom Lee had hit the
truth fitted across his mind as he saw her
flushed cheeks and the angry glitter in her
eyes.
sCacil and 7 ara GREAT friends" he said
The Morning herald., 1878-05-25
CHAPTER Y.

Geoffrev Chetwynd was not the man TO
s,ccumb easily to the fascination that the
lovely widow exercised over him, and on the
mornino after his interview with her cut

that glance from the wonderful gray eyes
might upset his plans and turn hlm from
his resolution. A ride Of ten miles pfouSht
him to the old cathedral town that was the
only place Of Importance in the nelgnool-
hood, and there he put up his morse, anu
after .silapl0 luncheon at the hed Lloh'
amused himself as best he could, hrst py go

and then strolling about the narrow stfeetS
OF the town, where he bought tirsta beau'l,
full little ship for little Cecil Elton, ana
then, after much hesitGtlon, two CT tIee ol
his own favorite modern songs, .,

himself; "out surely she will not oo]ect 10

eyes was Lady Temples card. He took 1t

The Missing Word.

The Moline (lll.) Dispatch says that
the Peoria Transcript has an editorial
deserving of more attention than it W II
receive, we venture to say, on the subject
of n want in our language which should
be supplied. The want is a pronoun in
the singular numberand common gender,
third person. Without this the litter
ate, and many who would not like to be
considered so, constantly blunder, and
scholars resort to all manner Of circum-
locution. Thus: " If any person tres
passes on tn Sc premises, - suffer pen
atty" Who shallY The illterate will
say they" But nothing can be more
absurd unless it be the word he" which
the scholar would use if forced into such
a sentence. But, as we were saying, the
scholar will avoid it by some circumlo-
cutiop. OF this the Transcript gives a
good example: Let every brother or
sister examine himself or herse f, and,
looking into his or her heart, find out
his or her besetting sin and resolutely
cast it from him or her." A good sug-
geston was made by somebody over a
year ago on this subject-so good that
we believe now as we did then that moth
ing more IL DtCtsshiy llhh lOI goOu
writer's like these Transcript people to
adopt it, and the thing is done. Our adj
vocacy of the new pronoun then sub
jected us to good-natured sarcasm, but
that matters not. Rdicule is the ordeal
through which every step of progress is
made. The suggestion was simply nom.
"e," pos. "es," obj. en-" The use viii
be readily seen, thus: If anybody
trespasses on these premises "e" shall
suffer the penalty of "es" trangressions.
1t will not be well for "em." Nothing
is needed but use to make "E" just as
good pronoun for the third person as
az" is for the first; and it will hardly be
denied that the various cases, as given
above, are etymologically good and har-
monious. In this light let us examine
the sentence quoted above, as an ex-
ample Of circumlocution. Let every
brother and sister examine "emself,"
and looking into "es " heart, find out
"es" besetting sin, and resolutely cast
it from "em."

The Name and the Origin OF Cats.

One of the most singular proofs, says
the London Daily Neps, of the foreign
importation and perhaps of the late ar
rival in Europe of the cat is to be found
in its various names 1t is said that
none OF them came from the old Aryan
source from which most of our language
is derived. Most of them, like the fami-
liar chat, are connected with the late
Latin cdtus which took the place of the
earlier felis, when cats drove out the
former foes of rats and mice.
1t seems to follow that cats came into
the West with the Romans, but whence
did the Romans get the name and the
animal7 NJ Picket traces the name to
the Syriac cato, and the Arabic qitt, out
of which by an easy and natural pro-
cess we make kitten. QiH and cato, how
ever, are not the primitive native forms
of the cats long descended title, and we
must go from Syria to Africa to find
gddd, kadiskd, and kaddiska. AS for the
ancient Egyptian "mau," that is merely
the NEW cat and the "pussy NEW F"
of English nurseries. Here, then, in
Egypt is a native onomatopeic name of
the cat, such as any human being might
give IL When ne nfst neard the peevlsh,
prolonged note of is voice.
The Indian names of the cat are not
very old, and they are easily explained.
The cat is the horse-wolf," the "rat-
eater " Though snakes are the ratters of
some districts), and the " foe of mice"
The most endearing title of the cat
comes from the land whence the most
pleasing specimens of the race are also
derived. The Persian cat, wild or tame
is "puschak, which the Afghans pro-
nounce ''pisjek," and the Lithuanians, as
old an Aryan-speaking race as any in
Europe, "puije." The English "puss "
in the long run is derived from San
scrit word for tai" there is a curious
coincidence between the word used by
Herodotus for the Egyptian cat. "the
creature with waving tall" and the
term found in Persian, Lithuanian, and
English.

Chinese Dentistry.

1t is well known that the Chinese at
tribute toothache to the gnawing Of
worms, and that their dentists profess
to take these worms from decayed teeth.
But how they performed this trick, and
80 artfully concealed it in the hurry of
daily business, was secret only recently
solved by European inquirer. After
some difficulty and delicate negotiation,
an intelligent looking native practi-
toner was induced to hand over the i'm
plements of his trade, together with a
number of the worms, and to give in
strucuions in the method of procedure.
When patient with toothache applies
for relief, if the tooth is solidly fixed in
the socket, the gum is separated from it
with sharp instruments, and made to
bleed. During this operation the cheek
is held on one side by bamboo spatula,
the end held in the hand some minute
worms are concealed under thin paper
pasted to the spatula. When all is
ready this is adroitly turned and in
serted in the mouth, and the paper be-
coming moistened is very easily torn
with the sharp instrument used for cut
ting the gums; the worms mix with the
saliva, and the dentist, of course, pickt
them out with his forceps. The patien
having ocular demonstration that the
cause of the disease had been removed,
has good reason to expect relief, which,
in many cases, would naturally follow
the bleeding of the gum. When the
pain returns the same operation is per-
formed over again, and fresh supply of
worms fully accounts for the recurring
trouble. These worms are manufac-
tured in quantities to suit the trade,
and they are very cleverly done; still,
to carry on the delusion fully, the dent
lists are obliged to keep on hand few
live worms to show their patients, ex-
planning that most of these worms from
the tooth are killed either by powder
which is often applied, or by the process
of removing them with the forceps. The
practice just described, it may be added,
is resorted to when the tooth is firmly
set in the jaw.
