The Baron sat stapeficd with amaze
ment for some moments. Then sud-
denly recollecting that, according to
this strange revelation, Ellie was his
child. that Egbert had gone To find and
marry her, his JOY was so great that he
eagerly forgsve Frida, and promised
not TO punish her mother. AS for
Clever Janet, all her cleverness had
forsaken her. She was in such terror
of the injured Baron that she set of at
once for her own house, and she and
her husband got upon the same horse
they having but one-and fled for their
lives.
When Frida found they had gone,
she sent Bertrand to bring them back.
For, after all, they were her father and
mother. The Baron had FASTENED to
write the whole story to Egbert. and it
was not long before he came back to
the castle with Ellie, whom he had al
ready married.
The wedding of Bertrand and Frida
soon followed, and the Baron be-
slowed as liberal dover on the bride
IS she and Bertrand would accept.
Poor Frida, greatly changed, and
very humble now, was loath to profit
at all BY the wrong her mother had
done in putting her in the Lady Elites
place. But she and Bertrand were
very happy. As for clever Janet, SD
chagrined and ashamed was she. and so
thankful TO be forgiven, that she be-

a WOMAN'S BIBLE.

The Remarkable New Jersey Enterprise
! 10 he Given to tn Public.
Very few people know of a remark
able enterprise that is being under
taken in New jersey i'm the shape of q
female revision of the Bible. The
work is being carried on in this man.
ner: In richly furnished drawing
room about 4 broad table sit half 8
dozen with intelligent faces and bust
pens. Each one has a cheap copy of
the Bible. which she reads carefully
and occasionally clips out a verse and
pastes it at the top of long sheet of
white paper. The others then cut out
the same verse from their Bibles and
dispose of it in the same manner. With
this before them they begin to discuss
il in turn. One of these commentators
is IN excellent Greek and Hebrew
scholar. Another is profoundly learned
in current Bible criticism, while still
another has gone through with care
and has at her fingers ends all the
great commentaries of Henry, Scott,
DIR. Adam Clark and others. After
each verse has been thoroughly dis
cussed each woman writes under
il what she has TO say and the
sheets are then passed To 8 secretary.
This secretary is recent graduate
from Vassar. She cuts out this much
talked-of verse from still another Bible,
puts it at the top of a large sheet of
paper and then appends under it the
notes of all the learned lady common
tators. When asked what was the OBJ
ject of this revision, one of the ladies,
who inspires and carries on this ire
mendous labor, explained that they
were doing what might be called a
feminine revision of the Scriptures.
I'VE find" she said, ''in going over
the Old and New Testaments, that
about one-tenth of the Bible touches,
in one way or another, upon women.
We wish to know whether the male
readings, translations and interpreta-
tons have been strictly fair to us, and
in a spirit friendly TO our sex. We
and a great many other women have
our doubts on the subject, and so we
propose issuing what may be called
The Woman's Bible On our revising
committee sit able women from En-
gland and America"
A well-known publisher has agreed
to issue the revision when il is COM
pleted, and by next summer the "Wo-
mans Bible" will be given TO the
public. y. B'orld.

CLEVER JANET.
How Her Wicked Scheme Came to
Naught.

The Baron Sterne had married foi
love. His wife was young and very
beautiful, and he adored her. He was
rich. He owned grand and stately
castle in a most delightful part of Eng
land, and had besides a fine town
house, where he and his lovely wife
could 60 and partake of city gayeties
whenever it pleased them to do so.
The Baron came of very old family.
Indeed, the first Baron Sterne must
have come in with the Conquest, if the
traditions of the house were to be cred
tied. 1t was natural that the Baron
should desire an heir to represent the
honors of his house after him. Conse-
quently when, after they had been
married over two years. his wife pre-
Sented him witt daughter instead of
son, his disappointment was great.
But he dissembled it for the sake of his
dear wife, who, they told him, was in
danger of death at any moment. In
suite of all that could he done for her
by the most learned and skillful physi-
clans in the country, the Baroness died
that evening. Not, however, without
clasping her poor little babe in her
loving arms and giving it once a
mothers caresses. The Baron was
almost beside himself with grief.
Fears were at first entertained for his
reason.
The child which had cost his beloved
Elfrida her life, be refused at first to
see at all. But at length an old and
trusted servant ventured to remind him
gently that the dead Baroness had
caressed the babe almost the last thing
before she died.
On hearing this the heart of father
began to throb in the breast of the dis
consulate husband. He ordered the
babe to be brought TO him, and kissing
it. said that it should be called Frida,
after its dead mother.
The nurse who held the child shud-
dered at the name.
Every one knows that Friday is an
unlucky day." she said. land to call
the babe that will surely bring it bad
luck. Why couldn't he give it the
whole name, or not name it for the
Baroness at alp
But her grumbling made no differ
ence, of course. The little one at her
christening was called Friday. Now,
as it happened, this babe was not the
Baron's child at all, but belonged to
the nurse, who was called Clever Janet
because she was so shrewd; and she
was as wicked as she was clever, for,
taking advantage of the great confu-
sion and preoccupation of every body
at the time of the Baroness death, she
had exchanged her own child for the
Baron's.
The babe which was not hers was
lying neglected at the cottage, while
she was codling her own child in
spiendor here at the castle, and exult-
ing in the success of her wicked cheat
The Lady Frida had every within
gratitied, and had she possessed the
sweet and gentle disposition of her
supposed mother, would not have been
injured by'it. But having the seeds in
her of evil, she grew up perverse, OBJ
stinate and willful. She had fright

full, naughty and overbearing to the
verge OF cruelty. She was very fond of

A BEAUTIFUL LAKE.

Description of Crater Lake, One of the
Wonders of Oregon.
There can scarcely be as great a
natural wonder within civilization. and
at the same time so little known, close
at hand, as Crater Lake. Situated
twenty-five miles west of north of Fort
Klamath, in Klamath County, directly
on the summit of the Cascade Noun
tsins, and about ninety miles east of
Medtord, it is easily accessible, there
being a good mountain road to the
very top of the walls surrounding it,
and fine camping grounds about half
a mile distant. The lake itself is about
six by eight miles in diameter, and
ranges from east of north to west of
south. The surface of the water is
six thousand three hundred feet above
sea level, and is completely surrounded
by cliffs or walls from one thousand to
nearly three thousand feet high, which
are scantily covered with fir trees. To
the southwest is a circular island,
which our party named Wizard Island.
1t is six hundred feet high, and in the
top is circular hole, or extinct crater,
four hundred and seventy-ive feet in
diameter, named by us the Witch's
Caldron. The base of the island is
covered with very heavy and hard
rocks, over which scarcely score of
human feet have ever trod. Further
are deep beds of ashes and
einders, giving evidence of the
most intense heat in days gone

Consumption a Parasitic Disease.

Consumption Parasitic Disease.
/ Drs. Biedert and Siegel have been
Employing microscopic observations to
confirm the theory of Koch, which is
tbs It consumption is parasitic disease,
IcasIsed by peculiar or special form of
bacteria. They found in every pro-
uounced case of consumption that the
bacteria were always to be discovered
in the expectorated substanceg But it
also appears in their studies Fthat the
bacteria are not likely to begin opera
tons in a healthy lung, but rather in a
lung which has been already damaged
by some process of disease, such as in
hammatiOn. When a cold on the lungs
paves the way for consumption. it is,
according TO these observers, by weak
ening the lung tissue and preparing the
evil for the consumption bacteria.
While, therefore, it may be compare
lively safe for healthy person to as
sociate with cOnsumptive friends, it
might be dangerous for the same per-
son to be equally sociable with such
friends at time when his lungs were
sore, sensitive or in any way under the
weather, for then he would be in a con-
dItion to become infected with the dis
ease in an atmosphere laden with germs
of the disease exhaled from the lungs
of any consunptive patient.
