eau de Cologne. What on earth have
you been doing in the night! This
morning, seeing that you did not come
down, entered your room and found
you stretched full length upon the floor,
dressed in an old Louis XVI. costume,
and pressing in your arms fragment of
broken porcelain, as if it had been a
beautiful young girl. !"
"Pordieu! it is grandfather's we'd
ding coat" said the other, lifting up one
of the tails of rose-colored silk with a
green figure. "There are the strass and
filgree buttons that he used to boast
about. Theodore must have found it in
some corner, and have put it on for fun.
But what made you faint?" added
Borgnioi.
That is all very well for young girls
with white shoulders; you unlace her
corsets, take off her necklace, and it is a
good opportunity for them to shipper and
give themselves airs

dryly; 81 am subject to these fits. F"

memory of what had passed distracted
me.
After breakfast, as it was raining
steadily, there was no possibility of 60
ing out; each occupied himself as best
he could. Borgnioi beat warlike
devils tattoo on the window panes, Ar
rigo and our host played draughts, I
took out my sketch-book and began to
draw.
The almost imperceptible hneaments
traced by my pencil, without my having
thought in the least what was drawing,
resembled with marvellous exactitude the
cofee-pot which had played such an i'm
portant role in the scenes of the first
night.
cit is astonishing how that head re-
sembles my sister Angela" said our
host, who had finished his game and was
watching the draw
Indeed, that which just now had SEEM
ed to me a coffee-pot was in reality
the sweet and melancholy profile of
"By all the saints in Paradise! Is she
dead or alive?" I cried in trembling
voice, as if my life had depended on his
answer.
"She died two years ago from inham-
nation of the lungs, caught coming home
from a ball"
"Alas!" l replied, painfully.
And, restraining tear that was ready
to fall, I closed my sketch-book. I felt
that there was no longer any happiness
on earth for me-

EUGENE Sues Bottle Trick.

The London World tells story of
DR.. Sue, the father of Engene Sue. He
had been presented by his patients all
over Europe with choice samples of the
most celebrated wines. He had received
Tokay from the Emperor of Austria,
rare hook from the king of Prussia, fine
Alicante from the Queen Christiana,
genuine Cachet dor from Prince Meter
Mich, and SO on. Some of these wines
were kept in a large iron cupboard in
the doctors studio. Eugene Sue, then
college lad, discovered the hidden
treasure, and, with his friends, sampled
the wines every night; but, to avoid de-
lection, they drank only half the con-
tents of each bottle, filing it up with
water and resealing it. When the doctor
treated his friends, with solemnity befit-
ting the occasion, to bottle or two from
his famous cellar. the guests frequently
failed to be thoroughly impressed with
the glory of these famous brands But
Eugeue Sue never confessed the trick
till after the death of his father.

A Clever SWindle.

One day last week st. Louis railroad
conductor was asked by two men known
to him as gamblers to cash two 81, 900
United States bonds. The conductor
took the bonds across the way to a brok-
er, and finding that they were ali right
agreed to cash them. One of the gam
blers took the bonds in his hands for
moment, gazing fondly at them, put
them in his coat pocket, and said he had
better keep them after all. Taking the
bonds out again in moment, the gam
bier laughed. saying: Cali right; they're
yours. The conductor counted out
1000 in greenbacks. At home that
evening he again looked at his bonds.
Then he saw that they were secured by
the " United Republic of laexico, be-
ing faithful limitations in every other
particular of the $1,000 United States
bonds. The gambler had changed the
United States bonds for the worthless
Mexican ones when he put the former
into his pocket.

The Bank Piuuet.

One of the most curious guards
in London, says Chambers Journal, is
that which is termed the "Bank Piquet, F"
and which proceeds to take up its night
ly quarters inside the Bank of England
every night at 7 o'clock all the year
round, remaining there until the next
morning. It is an officers guard, and
consists, besides, of drummer, two
sergeants and over thirty men. Each
man receives shilling from the bank
authorities Immediately upon his arrival,
the sergeant's share being two shillings.
The officer is allowed dinner, laid for
two, with three bottles of wine, and is
permitted to invite friend. The guard
or piquet is comfortably housed, each
man being "served out" with a watch
coat and blanket; and sentries are posted
during the night at the bullion vaults
and the counting house parlor.
