IN PERIL.

Lois-Lois Arnold! Drat the girl!
Where is she nowp"
The speaker was an energetic-looking
middle-aged woman standing in the
door of small house in the side street
of village
What's the matter, Maryp" queried
her husband, a kindly faced man, as he
stepped into the porch beside her.
" Matter enough! Why, here it is
six o'clock and the table ain's even set
for supper. / can't find Los nowhere.
What's more. Reuben, )" she added, with
an anxious look, II mistrust she's after
no good"
"Why, how do you mean, Maryp"
" I'm afraid she's off with that Dray-
ton"
What, that city chapp"
"Yes. He's been moopin' around
here a sight more'n l like, lately. l
saw her putin on her best white frock
two hours ago, and thought then that
more'n likely she expected to see him"
And Mrs. Arnold shook her head SOL
emnly.
At this moment young man turned
the corner of the street and came toward
the couple. He was tall and well made,
and evidently carpenter by occupa.
tion, as the kit of tooIs he carried tes-
tilted.
Here comes Paul Haynes, now,"
said Mrs. Arnold. Perhaps he's seen
her" And, with q friendly nod she
called out, "Seen Lois anywheres round,
PaulP"
"No, haven't" replied the young
man, pausing; then added, anxiously,
You amt worried about her, are
youp"
"Oh, no; likes not she is in to one of
the neighbors," said Mrs. Arnold, with
feigned indifference; and, as Haynes
passed on, she said to her husband: 81
wasn't going to have him mistrust any
thing. Lois had sight better marry
him; he wants her bad enough, and he's
such good fellow"
Lois Arnold was the niece of the good
couple who were thus anxious about
her-a pretty, wayward little thing, who
had already given rs much anxiety to
her sober protectors as does the wanton
duckling to the respectable hen she who
rears it.
At this moment the culprit was walk
ing down green lane not far from her
home, making her way toward it, in
deed, but very slowly.
She was NOT alone. She was leaning
on the arm of man about thirty, evil
IDENTIFY o denizun of the city. He was
rather good looking, with intense dark
eyes, and yet there lurked an expression
on his face that might have inspired
distrust in one more experienced than
our country girl.
And you say we must part here,
IIoisp" he said, pausing under the shade
of large tree, and drawing her into
the shelter of some bushes.
"Yes, Frank" she replied. II dare
not have you go any further; and shall
be late at home, as it is. Aunt Mary will
be sure to scold."
"Lois." said the young man suddenly.
taking both her hands in his, would
you like to escape those seedlings for
everp"
What do you mean, Mr.. DraytonP'
asked Lois, looking up at him with
startled eyes.
"I mean will you 60 back to the city
with mep Will you give yourself to me
entirely, my own pretty petP"
And he caught her suddenly in his
arms, imprinting an audacious kiss or
her trembling lips, and fairly over
whelming her with the force of hi
emotion.
After a moment Lois drew littl,
back from that almost fierce embrace
and looking frightened and bewildered
taltered;
This is so suddeni"

" The EmperOr's Tree"

When Chuntche, the founder of the
present Using dynasty, assembled the
throne of China, he planted tree in the
courtyard of the temple called, Tanche-
ssu, which is situated in the hills short
distance west of Pckin. It is believed
that the ruling family will remain IN
power so long as this tree exists. At
present it shows no signs of decay, and
has apparently a long life before it; but
there is still a more extraordinary su-
perstition attached to it. Saplings
sprout our periodically from the root,
and with the death of ea h prince one
withers away, while fresh one appears
in honor of the new emperor. Each
sa sapling % bears the same relation to the
Individual prince that the tree does to
the dynasty; and not unnaturally the
