Origin of a Slang Term.

One who has studied up says that the
word 'snide," which has come into
general use, like many slang words,
means more than the nearest English
word in its meaning. There is the
''snod," from the provincial English,
which means '.sly, cunning" and is
derived from the word ''snood," used
in fishing tackle and in the way artful
young misses tie up their ha,r so as to
tie the young mans heart within.
The word ''schnide," from Pennsylva-
MIA Dutch. means the cut as applied to
tailor, who is called schneider, y"
and probably cuts the cloth too short.
"Snide' is now applied to almost ev-
erything manufactured which is under
quality. A ''sniden buggy is one
loosely constructed and painted up to
look well, but out of which the spoke
will fly driving round the turns. A
'snide" piano is one which has we'll
vanished case and brass fiXings, but
with harp like that in Tara's halls,
and which VIII soon be mute.-1roJ

The Frozen Wonders of Siberia.

"When | was in Siberia" said Cap
tain Furskins, cit was so burned cold
that your breath would freeze and drop
in Jumps to the ground. But we had
lots of fun. There were plenty of jack
rabbits and other game, but it was
most too cold to handle gun. So on
a clear moonlight night we would set a
couple of big headlight lanterns on the
glistening snow, way out on the steppes,
and just wait for developments. The
rabbits would be attracted by the in
tense light, which was reflected for a
great distance over the snow crust, and
would all gather in circle around the
lamps in mute astoniShment at the free
picnic they were having. By and by
their eyes would begin to water from
the intensity of the Light, and as drop
after drop rolled down it formed an
icicle from the ground up, which finally
froze solid to the eye-balls and there
we had 'em. Next morning all you
had to do was to take 'em by the tail
and break 'em off the ic.cles. Mis-

CHAPTER W.

Late one evening Jassamine and l
were strolling in the woods not far from
her fathers house. / had not spoken
to her of love since the time of her re-
fusal. | knew that she would never
alter her decision, for could read de-
termination in every expression of her
face.
LET lis return. We have walked far
enough"
mo, let us 90 TO the brow of the hill
and look down on the river"
l had scarcely finished the remark
when four men sprang from behind an
enormous log. Each one wore a mask.
Jassamine tremblingly grasped my
arm.
"What do you want?" l dcmanded!''
drawing brace of pistols.
ave have come after that woman!'
replied one of the men.
Raising both pistols, fired in rapid
succession. The rascals fired at me, but
luckily their shots took no effect. Jessa-
mine tainted, just as the ruffians closed
upon me in hand-to-hand encounter.
When she regained consciousness, the
ruflians had gone. She looked up CRATE
fully, and when supported her in my
arms, she placed her head on my breast.
All, delightful moment of victory and
love.
II have judged You hastily" she
said, as we drew near the house.
Your bravery surpasses anything l had
ever hoped to see. F"
kissed her.

CHAPTER V.

The entire country rang with my
praises. There were no sensational
daily papers in those days, or would
have indeed been far-famed hero.
The Judge took me warmly by the
hand when l told him how | loved
Jassamine, and said:
"You have made noble fight, my
boy. When you presented those letters
of recommendation, | knew that you
were generous and brave, even though
others thought differently. / have for
sometime known that Jassamine loved
you, but | knew that, with her foolish
ideas of chivalry, she would not marry
you after your refusal of the challenge
unless you could do something to re-
deem yourself.
Jassamine and / were married with
great ceremony. All of the neighbors
were invited. Whole calves were bar
becued; and, it seemed, whole distill-
cries were turned loose. Shortly after
our marriage, we moved to Little Rock,
then flourishing town. My business
prosperod, and, within five years, l
owned well furnished house.
One day, about six years after our
removal to Little Rock, Jasper Patter-
son, with whom | had been intimate
during the days of my courtship, paid
me visit was delighted to see him,
and late ut night, he and sat in the
library, talking over old times, as we
termed the first days of our acquaint-
ance. The lamp was burning low. We
sat by the fireplace. My wife had gone
to bed thought, but | afterwards dis
covered that she was DOING on the sofa.
81 never saw anything work so
well,n said Jasper. "You not only Sc
cured wife, but it made you hero.
Your wife has never suspected any
thing, has she?"
mo, not thing. The boys played
their parts well. l was afraid that
Nick Jones would ruin everything, for
after Jassamine tainted, he snorted. He
was so full of laugh that he could hard
ly run away. ~
Bip! Something struck me on the
head. The room SWAN. l saw Jasper
getting out of the way; | saw my wife
standing near me, and then sank to
the floor. When | recovered, | was ~
ing on the sofa. Jassamine was bend
ing over me-"
ooh, don't die" she was saying,
Don't die, for / didn't mean it. l
found the paper weight in my hand and
| threw before | knew it, But it was
cruel TO treat me that way
Yes, replied, "but it was because

another was a raving maniac. The lat

waves. to tell his companions below, he
said, that help had come.--N. Y. Post.

CHAPTER III.

CHAPTER IIIs
soon learned that the doctor bore
the name of q desperate character. He
had fought several duels. l expected
that he would post me as a coward, and
he did so. but he kept out of my way.
The people, saw, attached great inn
portance to what they termed the de-
Tense of honor. No matter how prompt-
w u man resented an insult and knocked
the aggressor down, he was not to be
taken into the fold of brave men until
he had shown his willingness to burn
dangerous powder. When any one re-
preached me for not fighting the doctor,
l attempted to laugh it off, but to my
sorrow found that it was u serious
matter.
"He would have killed me,h l said
one day to an acquaintance who sat in
my office.
Presumably" he replied.
"Well, then, do you suppose want
to be killedah
"0f course not. but what is life UNI
less il be honorableg"
Do you mean that since have re-
fused TO fight duel with that desperate
man my life is no longer honorable?"

have acted dishonorably, you can not
deny"
Il don't believe that Judge Blake
thinks so.
Butt warrant you that Miss Jassa-
mine does"
My blood tingled; my face burned
"Why should she pay any attention TO

Il don't suppose she pays any more
attention to it than she can help. Gray

have proved to be true. Miss Jassa-
mine is rather q peculiar girl. You can

not.n
