THE BEAUTIFUL LAND OF NOD.
Come cuddle your head on my shoulder, dear
Your head like the golden rod
And we will go sailing away from here
To the beautiful Land of Nod,
Away from life's worry and hurry and furry,
| Away from Iife's shadow and gloom.
We will float of together to q world of fai

| Where blossoms are always in bloom.
Just shut up your eyes and fold your hands
Your hands like the leaves of a rose
And we will go sailing to those fair lands
That never an atlas shows.
On the North and West they are bounded b.
rest,
On the South and East by dreams.
IT'S the country ideal where nothing 10 real,
But every thing only seems.
Just drop down the curtain of your dear eyes
Your eyes like the bright bluebell-
And we will sail out under star-lit skies
To the land where the fairies dwell.
Down the river Of sleep our bark will sweep
Till it reaches that magical isle
Which no man has seen, but where all have
been,
: And there we will pause awhile.

CHAPTER III.
There was sale HI Brixby Lodge and
in due course one of the Lancashire
manufacturers sons, who had recently
married, Came down and was installed
rs his fathers representative.
Edgar ArntOu had arranged that Kate
Gerrow should reside in London with
his sisters, until such an interval had
passed as etiquette prescribed. At the
sale he Was large purchaser. and poor
as by comparison, he had once sty led
himself, the house he furnished was one
of he best in the village
Wedding and honeymoon were both
over. Edgar had just come in from his
days round of visits, aud was standing
with his wife at the window, gazing out
at the fast-falling snOw-fakes.
Suddenly there was crash behind
that caused both to look round. A Per
sian kitten, ,gamboling mischievously on
the top of au escritOire, had knocked
down the plaster figure of an antique
cupbearer. The fragile article of vertu
was broken into dozen fragments,
amidst which tiny silver key revealed
itself
"That is where the key of uncle's
japanese cabinet went then,n said
Kate; "the hand and arm of the image
must have been hollow, and the key
once put into the cup. slipped through
intO the interior"
"Odd. certainly" answered Edgar;
'let us try If it is the one"
He went out, anu from the next room
fetched y small, inlaid cabinet of ex-
quisite workmanship. The key fitted
at once.
II was sure it would. Iknew it again

"Oh, but there is =" CALCULATED Edgar.
as at that instant he poised up the deli
cate lid aud caught sight of tight little
roll Of paper.
Kate watched in silent surprise Ed
gar slowly undiu the bundle, a shrewd
suspicion of what he had found flashing
upon him, and making his ordinary
firm, white fingers hot and bungiing.
ut is your uncIe's real will, his last
and legal will, l should say, rather"
said Edgar, with a gasp, ''found just
where he might have been expected to
have placed it, aud where searchers
might equally have expected to miss it
Quite a wonder bought the cabinet 7"
And then he read slowly, till the full
moment of the discovery had been rea.
lized by both brains, how land, and
houses, and money snugly invested in
cpnsOls, had been devised, without re
servatiOD or qualification, to Mr. Ger
rows beloved nlece, Kate, thecompan

Husband and wife gave each other

mutual smile and caress.
