LOVERS PLOT.
"Pass the cake. y

"Pass the cake"
These words, spoken in imperiOus
tones by Rosalind Mcclure, foated
diagonally across the parlor to
where Pansy Perkins was seated
on a faute1tiL conversing with
George W. Simpson. Pansy was
looking even lovlier than usual, the
gaslight, softend and made less
garish by the tinted shades through
which it came, bring out in all its
beauty the peachy complexion for
which the Perkinses, of Perkins
vile, had long been noted.

as she spoke so close to that of
George, that little vagrant tress of

suddenly taken hold of the handles

"No," he said, 81 never was in

but with cold feet, whose eyes were
never taken from them, and in whose
heart the fires of jealousy were rag
ing in all their lurid fierceness.
Rosalind Mcclure loved George W.
Simpson with all the passionate fer
vor of a highborn woman, whose
heart attacked in vain by countless
suitors, suddenly pours out unbid-
den all the hidden treasures of its
love.
Such love is terrible in its inten-
sity, and only those who have seen
a three base hit made in the ninth
inning can realize the agony to
which a woman, loving thus, is SUBJ
Jected when she sees the object of
her passion bending tenderly over
another and whispering words that
can never be recalled. The sight of
George w. Simpson making love to
a girl who didn't have an invisible
net to her name was more than Ros-
alind could bear, so she went into
the supper room.
sPut some oysters near the hole
in the WALL" she said to waiter,
pointing with her jeWeled hand to
the portiere through which she had
just passed. The man did as he was
told.
In moment George and Pansy
entered the room.
'Would you like some oysters 2"
he said.
"Oh, yes" replied Pansy. 81 think
they are just lovely"
George placed before her a platter
of SeVres ware, on which the null
luskS were heaped, and as the first
one disappeared with a dull thud
Rosalind smiled with cold, Boston
smile, and felt that her hom of
triumph was at hand.
When the oysters were gonr, Pansy
looked up with a glad smile.
"You are very kind, Mr.. Simp-
son." she said, and I shall not soon
forget this night"
But the happy look had faded
from the mans face, and the RANT
mouth was quivering with pain.

Scientific Nursing.

There is no subject OF so much
general interest as this, concerning
which there is, at the same time,
such q widely prevalent ignorance.
There are few, especially among
women, upon whom will not de-
volVe, at some time in their lives,
the care of the sick; fewer still who
will not at some time become de-
pendent upon such care; and it
might naturally be supposed that
matters of such primary and uni
versal Importance as sanitary con-
ditions aud the practical application
in the sick-room Of scientific princi-
pies would be too familiar to every
one to need to be further enlarged
upon. But the fact ia it too FREE
quently happens that all the sciens
tific knowledge which ever enters
the siok-room comes in with the
doctor and goes out again with him.
This state of things requires to be
improved. knowledge, and that
correct knowledge We call science, is
just as indispensable to the nurse as
to anybody else. It is great mis-.
take to suppose that all wemen-even
all good women-make good nurses.
The best intentions and the tender
est heart may coexist with an utter
lack of executive ability, and be more
than counterbalanced by ignorance
and prejudice. Native aptitude gives
advantage, but it cannot be relied
upon alone. Even those who possess
in the highest degree the natural gift
of ministrstion which renders them
80 acceptable to the invalid would
find their power OF usefulness very
largely increased by q familiarity
with what may be properly called
the science OF the sickroom. Ply

watermelons VS.. Hog Cholera.

The Albany News has beer furnished
with the following valuable information by
Mr.. W. r. Talley, the pioneer of the water
melon industry in Lowdnes county, Ga:
Mr.. Talley is strong advocate of the
watermelon, and has experimental with it
in more ways than one He saws that
watermelons not only afford excellent
pasturing, but that they ARE good, pre-
ventive of cholera. He has never lost a
hog from cholera since he has been plant
ing melons. After all the marketable
melons have been gathered he throws those
that are left into heaps, taking pains to
break every melon as he casts it into the
heap. In few days they begin to sour
and ferment, and hogs prefer them in this
state toany other. Each heap fnallyibecomes
mass of sour mush, and the hogs will con
tinue to eat it as long as there is "a piece of
rind or seed left. Melons thrown to-
gether in this way will furnish all the food
necessary for two months or more. In
fact, the h6gs viii not leave them for any,
thing else. G2c xviii fatten every day. Mr..
Tale. says that he is satisfied from expert
ence that it gould pay every farmer who
raises hogs to plant few acres in water
melons for them every year. He pastures
his hogs on the remains of his melon crop
through the months of August and Septem
Der, and they get as fat as they can roll.
lie does not attempt to account upon anv
known theory or scientific principle, for
the fact that melons are a preventive of
cholera in hogs, but he says that experience
has satisfied him that the same is a fact
nevertheless At one time the hogs of a
neighbor of his, separated from his own
only by cross fence, nearly all died with
the cholara while his never showed the
slightest symptom of the disease. His hogs
were pastured on watermelons. while .his
neighbor's were not. Finally he gave his
nelghbor the privilege of hauling as many
melons rs he wanted to his hogs, and as
soon as the melons We're given them the
deadly havoc Cf the cholera ceased. Mr..
Falley furnishes other instances which
seem to clearly establish the fact that the
watermelon is not only a good fattening.

Fixing the Door.

There was a crack under the kitch-
en- door-a crevice large enough for
one to put hand under-and early
in November Mrs. Crispo began
saying
''Now, Orispo don't let this day
pass without mailing down a cleat to
stop that crevice. It will let in more
cold this winter than two tons OF
coal can drive OUT
And Crispo began replying:
"Certainly, my dear-certainly.
That crev ce shall be stopped this
very day"
On fifteen different occasions in
November she reminded him of the
fact that he had forgotten the orev.

occasions was twenty. Daring the
month OFF anuary she spoke of it TWEEN
ty-liye times. In March she began
referring to the matter at each meal,
and the other day she nailed him

was at the job.

"Well, the old crevice is shut up I"
"You fixed it, eh? 2"
"Eixed it better than any carpen-

Food For Thought.

Glass not the idea among the liv,
ing; they are a sort Of dead men
who can't he buried.
When good resolution is formed
beware OF the tempter-he is then
always nearest.
Charity obliges us not to disturb
a man; prudence not to trust him
before we know him.
When thou prayest, rather let thy
heart be without words than thy
words without heart.
Retribution stands with uplirted
axe, and culture, rank, and robes of
sanctity cannot stay its blow
Every person you meet with in
the pecnharlty of rhe character pre-
sented, affords food for thought.
Be loving ana you will never want
for love. Be humble and you will
never want for guidance.
1t is the great art and philosophy
of life to make ne best Of the pre-
sent, whether it be good or bad.
Rashness generally ends in folly
and shame; young men are exhor-

find the flaw when they may have

Modesty is the appendage of so
briefly, and it is to chastity, to tenn
perance, and to humility; as the
frlnges are to garment.
The man who contents himself to-
day with that which he has, will con
tent himself tomorrow with that
which he may have.
True glory takes root, and even
spreads; all false pretenses, like flow
ers, fell to the ground nor can any
counterfeit last long.

that said, gossip is putting two and
two together and makes it five.
1t is the favor of man which gives
the beauty and comliuess to woman,
as the stream glitters no longer
when the sun ceaseth to shine.
Humility is everywhere preached
and pride practiced they persuade
others to liable for heaven, and fall
out about earth themselves.
There is no time in mans life
when he is SO great as when he
che erfally bows to the necessity OF
his position, and make the best of it.
There is 40 short cat to excellence
In every department TO human
achievement superiority is based up
on toll, aud success is reached only
by effort.
Your relations with God decide
your life in the world. Ifyou would
walk with Go first be With Him in
the depths and intensity Of your own
soul.
All who have meditated on the
art OF governing mankind, have been
convinced that the fate Of empires
certainly depends on the education
of youth.
If men would spend in doing good
to Others quarter Of the time and
money they spend in doing harm to
themselves, misery would vanish from

There is deep significance in 81
