SIBYL sARTORIS.
Evolved from the School of
Emers on, Concord and
Mackerel.

"Kiss me again"
Sibyl sartoris spoke these words In
q grave. calm manner, that betoken-
ed the serious import in which she
held them, and &c Herbert Holdfast
bent tepderly forward and pressed his
! ligs softly to hers she looked up to
him in the shy, catch-on. the back
fence fashion that had 80 witched him
in the golden hued days of courtship
those days when all the world seem
ed filed with sunshine, when every
breeze spoke in whispers OF his love
for this beautiful girl, and the cloud
less skies seemed only to reflect the
deeper azure Of her eyes.
There was no tint OF deception in
the pure nature of this girl, and her
every act was the resnlt of reflection,
otter profound. Hfo1 at up in Bos>
ton, she had all / g life been sccus'
toned to put to its best use the power
of discernment which thoughtful
mind gave her. Surrounded as cha
was oy the mystic influence of Emer-
son, the Concord School of Philosophy,
and several large warehouses where
mackerel were sold, it is small Won
der that when, standi e on the TIRES
hold of womanhood, che beheld suit
ors for her heart and hand approach;
she had analysed with critical care
the hopes and fears OF each-had
subjected the character OF every
wooer 10 the rigid scrutiny OF q mind
that, seated cross-legged on the
starry summit of p pathological re-
search, looked upon man as only
vivifisd protoplssm, and the deepest
emotions of the heart as no srely the
manifestations OF too active nerve
center.
Herbert knew this. He knew that
this girl-the rounded curves OF
whose figure and the sweetness OF
whose lips would have made an
anchorite leave his job without a
pang-hsd naught OF passion in her
nature. And so when be had CONS
plied-oh, go gladly-wilh her re-
quest, there stalked fion out the BAN
Quet halls OF his imagination. where
they had 30 long been unwelceme
guests. the sheeted ghosts OF Doubt
and Apprehension. He knew. now
that sibyI loved him with love that
would never fsl;er or isil-a love that
securely built upon foundation of
respect '.and admiration, was now
crowned with large, roomy. msnsard
roof of q deathlsss, ..never-changing
passion. Her words pre- we'd it. Never
before had she even 90 much as hint
ed at kiss, and when be had sought
tc take one she had submitted to his
csrasses more asa dutiful wife than an
ardent lover. But now all wss chang.

bliss that large. well.reg ulated, three.

give. The thought was ecstscy.
"You love me better to-day, SibYl,"
he said, than you did yesterday. Is
it not 60. darline?'
NO." she answers, standing there
calm and pulseless as clam at high
tide.

day DR.. Nichols, of III West Wash
ington place, who was attending
her, received a copy of the Paris
Figaro, which contained a report
made to the French Academy of
Medicine by DR.. Dslthil. DR.. Dslt-
hill said that the vapors OF liquid
tar and turp antine would dissolve
the fibrinous exudations which
choke up the throat in Group and
diphtheria.
"The patient" DR.. Delthil says:
Immediately seems TO experience
relief: the choking and rattle stop;
the patient falls into a slumber and
seems to inhale the smoke
with pleasure. The fbrinous
membrane soon becomes detached.
and the patient coughs up micro.
hicides. These, when caught in q
glass, may be SEEN to dissolve in the
smoke. In the course Of three days
afterward the patient entirely re-
covers"
DR.. Delthil's process was de-
scribed H. peurs equal parts of
turpentine and liquid tar into a tin
pan or cup, and sets fire to the mix

arises. which obscures the air Of the
room.
DR.. Nichols tried this treatment
yesterday with little Ruth Lock-
wood. She was lying gasping for
breath when he visited her. First
pouring about two tabiespoonfuls of
liqnefled tar on an iron pan, he
poured as much turpentine over it
and set it on fire. The rich resinous
smoke which rose to the ceiling was
by no means unpleasant. As it
filed the room the child's breathing
became natural, and as the smoke
grew dense she fell asleep.
