But she felt that this letter was
not genuine.
A feeling that danger menaced
her crept over, and she resolved
upon course of action. Iacloslng
the letter and one hastily written
by herself she addressed them in
a common envelope 10 Edwin For

Not trusting herself to lift her

A smile gradually briEhtens the

pleads.
Six months later the great clock
in the church tower, In the town of

party enters the door and in a few
moments Edwin Forester and An.

handsomer couple was never seen

gaining so lovely a bride as An.

THE EARL'S DAUGHTER

In the serrated mountains o
Spain there is situated a convent
Many years and many battlln;
winds have swept over the wild
tangled forest that stretches away
in the rear of the convent. Time
hast cast a picturesque shade ovel
the walls and buttresses of this Sc
cluded retreat. | have often
thought it be very delightful TO
live a life as tranquil and pure as
that of the white capped sisters
seems to be.
The sun had sunk by the western
wing. The mantling ivy aud odo-
rous jasmine were almost undefin-
ed i'll the darkness, bat their per-
fume was waited on the cool night
wind, as the birds stirred them in
their homeward fight. Many a
mother bird had made her nest on
the jutting angle of the roof that
lost itself in the surrounding ver-
dure.
The softly pealing bell had rung
the evening chime that died away
among the cadence-repeating peaks
and beetling crags.
The gates of the convent are open,
but a sentinel watches while 3
great st. Bernard dog lies snuffing
the evening air.
A slight, girlish figure, clad in
deep mourning glides quietly out
the gate, smiling pleasantly as she
passes the watchman and calls
Carlos To follow her.
What does she seek without the
walls at such an houri
Let us follow her. Tripping rapid
ly along she keeps close to the
walls of the convent, The dog
follows close behind.
On reaching the farthest side of
the convent she attempts to cross a
little branch that flows smoothly
along under the walls into the spa
ciOus courtyard. A step rattles a
pebble into the bed of The brook

SCRANTON, Miss, July 20, 1888.
Editor Democrat-Star:
A wise man once said that a wise
man talked because he had some
thing to say, and a crank talked
because he aeGRted to say some
thing. Whether The assertion of
the aforesaid wise man is correct,
may be inferred from a perusal of
the communication to the DEMO
cRAT-STAR of to-day, over the sig.
nature OF Crank 0. Cranky.p
If your correspondent had been
wise man he would have known
that there is no record extant that
furnishes the genealogy of Noah,
and consequently no means by
which to determine at what "point
in the generations or age of the
world Old Father Noah" first saw
the light, or the name of the gen.
ueman Immediately responsible
for his advent into this world. The
name of Noah'5 father being an
important factor in the determine
ton OF the answer required by
"Crank o. Cranky;" and as there
is no reliable record Of that gentle
mans name, his question is one of
those impossible problems that
leads one to believe that the prob
lem and The propounder are both
of the same ilk. Is
The 4th chapter of Genesis be-
begins the genealogy of Lamech,
the father of Noah, with Cain, and
the 9Th chapter declares Seth to be
the forefather of Lamech; and
from the same chapter we learn
that Cam was the first fruit of the
welded life of Adam and Eve. and
that Seth was the third; therefore,
it follows that it must first be de-
termined whether Cain was Noah's
lorelather, or whether his younger
brother Seth was entitled to that
honor, before solution of "Crank
0. Cranky'S" problem can be ar
rived at.
If "Crank O. Cranky" will read
Genesis, 7lh chapter, 21st 10 oath

Now, the 21st verse, of the 7th

1t is mistake. Just behind us we are

right here 5000 acres of as good land as
hes out OF doors, with 400 inches of
water brought to the land. for

be paid until the water is there. Then
