THE GRAND RoUNCE.
chicago g,risune.

They sst alone in the deeply shad-
ed recess OF the bay windows. Violet
Caryll and Adelbert Jones, while just
beyond them, through the tilmy lace
curtains Of marvellous texture and
priceless worth, could be seen the
merry dancers as they swept languid-
y by in the sensuous measures Of the
waltz, fair young faces laid trustfully
against shoulder blades, and beauti-
full forms encircled by strong, manly
arms, that would gladly have held
them forever, and sheltered them
from the stormsthat life, however fair
it seems, must bring to all.
Nearly twelve months ago these
two, sitting in the window, had plight
ed their trotll. Violet Caryll was
the only daughter Of purse proud
millionaire, and accustomed to every
luxury that money could purchase,
while Adelbert Jones was only o poor
book-keeper, with no chance to steal
anything and get ahead in the world.
He had come to the soisee dansante
given BY Violet's father in honor of
her nineteenth birthday, and had
wandered with her to the bay win
dow, where, secure from observation,
they might talk OF the all absorbing
passion that bound their hearts to-
gether in the letters Of love.
Il have been thinking of you, dar-
ling, all the day." said Violet, in a low,
sweet voice, the very modulations of
which told better than words of how
her whole being was wrapped up in
the love she bore the strong limbed
young man whose eyes looks into hers
with such tender expression. ~ have
not been here az al, but away,
away hardly know where. Only
in the land my footsteps have linger-
ed in all day, never cried for love
that did not come, nor felt hungered
for loves own. gifts, nor felt lonely
nor desolate, nor afraid. Because,
beneath the turquoise skies ofmy mys-
teal dreamlAnd, in the rose laden air,
love was always with me; love with
strong arms and clinging kisses and
deathless tenderness And know
no loneliness, nor sorrow, nor heart
break"
"But you do not doubt my love,
sweetheart he murmured, bending
over her with loverlilse tenderness
and kissing softly the wine-red lips
tliatoverIlpng the sensitive, dropping
mouth
No she said, looking at Am with
proud, love lit eyes, while o winsome
smilel lent additional beauty 10 the
fair face. Il do not doubt you for an
instant, only when am lonely and
sad, and then | think some one more
beautiful than ! may win you from
me. know thar ! am not beautiful,
Adeldert. and in my Jealous moments
IL comes to ne with great thrOb-
the power OK beauty over IL man.
Soft, pearly flesh, rounded curves,
sweet, red lips, velvety eycs-all the
magic and marvel of tint and texture
of outline when think of this, | say
70 utter despair" and the proud girl
crushed with cruel force between her
white, tapering fingers q flower pot
that stood with others in the window.
The noise attracted the attention OF
her father, who was passing by, and
he pushed aside the curtain and en-
tered.

APersistent Spectre.

Gentlemea'S Magazine. While the
subject Of ghosts is attaching attention,
1 viii offer a nut for our scientists to
crack. For obvious reasons / am
compelled TO omit names. The wife
of one of our most distinguished scien-
tific men-I use the term "mOst dis
tinguished" advisedly, since the repu-
tation Of the man in question is cos
mOpolitan-saw nightly an old man
seated in an arm chair near the fire
place in her bedroom. Being thor
oughly imbued with her husbands
views upon scientific subjects, she
held her peace, and tried with partial
success to convince herself that il was
a delusion.
Somewhat later this room was con-
verted into a night nursery, and ulti-
mately into a spare bedroom, with
the result that each successive accu-
pant juFeniler or the mature years de
scribed the old gentleman who came
and sat by the fire. Ny scientific
friend has 'pished" and 'pshawcd' at
these statements, and has treated the
whole matter as ridiculous. He has,
however, been compelled to concede
something to the vision or the delu-
sion. and to quit the house. / simply
advance this as a fact, and leave to
others the task Of explanation.

Primitive Tribe.

DR.. Hunter describes peculiar
tribe in India which has preserved an
extreme primitiveness. The people are
called Leaf Wearers because they wear
the costume of Adam aud Eve before
the fall; or. more strictly speaking.
they did SO until the English persua-
ded them to adopt cloth. In 1871 the
English officer called together the clan,
and after speech handed out strips of
cotton Tor the women to put on. They
then passed in single file 10 the number
ofone thousand nine hundred before
him, made obeisance to him, and were
afterw wards marked on the forehead
with vermillion AS a sign of their enter
ing into civilized society. Finally they
gathered The punches of leaves which
had formed their sole clothing into a
great hcap, and sOlemnly set fire to il.
This leaf-weariug tribe had no kuowl-
edge Of the metals until quite lately,
when foreigners came among them,
and no word existed in their native
language for iron or any other metal.
But their country abounds in flint
weapons, so that the Juaugs form a
remnant, to our own day, of the stone
age. "Their huts." writes the officer
who knows them best, ARE among the
smallest that human beings ever delib-
erately constructed as dwellings. They
measure about six feet by eight feet
The head Of the family and all the fc-
males huddle together in this one she'll,
not much larger than a dog kennel
The boys and young men Of the village
live in one large building apart by
themselves and this custom Of having
acOmmon abode for the whole male
youth of the hamlet j. found
among many aboriginal tTibe-.n dis

Pickles and Vinegar.

The author of Food Adulteration,"
before quoted, states that il is within
bounds TO say that not one Of the very
green cucumber pickles found in gro
cerv shops is free from copper.
DIR. Puts SAYS verdisris is used in
making green pickles, ard sugar of
lead in making yellow pickles, which
are quite as dangerous. lie writes
me, October IA, 1879, that the head Of
a large drug house in Chicago tells
him that one pickle factory bay Of
them subacetale of lead in quantities
in five gallons at a time; and the
same drug house sells yerdigris TO
pickle men to be used in making
green pickles. / find ia the report Of
the Massachusetts State Board Of

twelve different Wholesale dealers, ten

Good Words and strong words.

From a sermon preached in the
Church of the Strangers Memphis,
Tenn, by the Pastor, Rev. L. H.
Long:
But, my friends. there is one kind
of moth that has spread its desOlations
wider aud pushed its horrors further
than ali others. 1t eats its way down
iuto the very core and heart of man
hood, and corrode<, detiles and black
ems into ruin every trace and Inca
ment Of beauty, goodness and nObili-
ty of soul and body. This Is the moth
of intemperauce. | would that 1 had

aph's fire, that l might paint in true
and living colors TO the horrors of this
internal worm of death that is small
in its beginning and beautiful and
bright, but that grows larger and
blacker until it carries the head and
cruel teeth of the fiercest hound of
he'll, yields the terrible hands Of
harpy and breathes the breath and
shoots the glance of all gOrgOn hOr-
rOrs, turning men with every pulse of
honor and of generous sentiment into
hopeless qualifications of corruption.
