The Terrible Tragedy.

The thick thunder threatened tor
rcnts; the tempest tossed the trees,
throwing their trembling trunklets topsy-
turwy.
Tripping coward the town, Theresa
thought, "To-night Theo1 1ore treads the
tir"some thoroughfare, thinking things
THAI"
ThUd
The terrified truant turns to trace the
threatening turmoil. There, toward the
toll-gate, tramped Theodore, trying to
throttle two thieves.
"Take to the timber, Theresa !" thun-
dcrcd Theodore.
"rell that to timid things" thought
Theresa, treading tiger-like, tip-toe
toward the trio. Then, telling Theo-
doro to throw the taller thief, Theresa,
taking t'othcrs toga, tied through the
thickness tho thicf's throat.
Thus terminated the terrible trouble
that threatened the twain. They turned
trilmphantly TO town, there to tell the
tale. Tomorrow ties them together.

Special Dread--A Professional
Experience.

Few things give more pain than dread or ap-
prehension. Most people are able to face APP
parent danger heroically, but the sudden and
unexpected coming Of some indefinite calami-
ty very naturally strikes terror to even the
bravest. For this reason lightning and tor
nadoes are considered terrible; their coming
and going are so sudden, unaunouncei aud
unknown. For this same reason an uulinowu
disease, some poison In the blood, some mala-
dy that is gradua ly undermining the lie, Is
specially dreaded by all thinking peoIle. And,
indeed, there are good reasons for such dread,
for modern science has discovered that some
yirulent disorders show the least signs in their
beginnings, while they have the worst possi-
bic symptoms. We ow Of many persons
