BUYING votes is the sowing of seeds
for the worst crop ever harvested on
the American continent. When it
becomes generally accepted that a
nam to hold Office must first buy it,
then the day for peaceful, quiet cleo
tons has passed and that of anarchy
begun. Nothing can be more humil-
iating to a party than to have its mem
bers sell their votes for money, for
whisky, or for price In promises. If
Democrats buy votes they must be
Republican votes and if Republicans
buy them they, in turn, must be Dem
ocrat votes but be they Democrats or
Republicans they are sowing for a
harvest that will be full of bitterness,
strife and danger to the Republic and
a harvest not so far distant as to be
hoped for by all true patriots and
lovers of country.

CHAPTER XVI.


Perhaps three-quarters of an hour after
the ''Namovna" had captured her prize, while
the shores of Brittany Were fast receding
in the distance, the Princess regained her
consciousness. She did not seem to rea-
lie her situation immediately: but soon
memory returned, and she sprang to her
feet, her checks scarlet with indignation
and her whole being quivcring with anger.
She saw. seated IN the adjoining room,
busily occupied with some duty or other,
Blanche, tho maid whom the steward had
secured in Paris. To her she appealed IN
perfect torrent of hasty words:
''Why am 1 treated thus: Where am II
Who are you! Do you know who anna 1 am
the Princess Natalie
''Be quiet, my dear lady. You can do
nothing. You are comfortably settled. l
am your maid. Pray, calm yourself" COM
placently said the woman, strong, hearty,
red-checHed widow OF about forty.
Every one on the .'Namovna' was care
fully informed that this young girl was
Fairfax's relative, whose mind had become
little unsettled by recent Illness, and
that, for the sake of greater privacy, he
was conveying her to her American home
on Mr.. Nebbitt's yacht.
She glanced around. This was, clearly,
the cabin of steamer. She could feel the
throbbing OF the screw and the rolling of
the boat on the waves. Yet, only ten min
utes ago-at least, SO it seemed to her-she
had been riding among her beloved hills OF
Brittany, several miles from the sca-cOast.
She remembered the old peasant-womaI and
the rude grasp from behind, the horrible
sensation of choking, and then-an was
blacl1ness and blank.
She looked again. There was the pleas
ant Aad comely-faced maid, with her honest,
mothtrly face, bending over the table in the
adjoining saloon. Here was her own
cabin. adorned with all sorts of lovely pict-
ures. many of them familiar. Some repre-
scented scenes in Brittany, others IN Swift
erland, or Italy. and-could she believe her
eyes!-there was photograph OF her own
fathers palace.
Electric lamps lighted the vessel. Ele-
CANT oil paintings hung % the walls
Shelves, flied with books, attr,sted the eye.
An easel, with canvas stretched -eady for
use, stood in the corner, and close by We're
paints, palette and brushes.
A fine piano stood opposite. a song lay
on the rack. Natalie started in surprise
II was, OF course, again the 'tAddio,'' and
here she sprang forward and gave cry OF
genuine delight Suspended by silk rib
bon and resting against the song was her
lost palette knife. A note was attached TO
it The envelope bore the words: For the
Princess Natalie-''
She opened it aud read:

IT PAYS TO DO RIGHT.

When men are pursuing
Acourse of fll-doing
OF crime or unkindness, how little they reck
The anguish and sorrow
That waits some tomorrow,
With foods of remorse they've no power to
check.
They're blind TO all beauty
Suggestive of duty;
They heed not hfes warnings, but hurry aisng,
In evil delighting,
With comrades uniting,
And firmly believing ii pays to do wrong.
Eut oh, there's season
When men wake to reason,
And sec themselves fully as black as they are;
No longer descending
In great fear and trembling.
Sad culprits, they stand at the Great Judgment
Bar.
Then conscience accuses
And sternly refuses
TO furnish excuses but seems TO delight
In fortunes and troubles
That Time but redoubles,
Forever repeating: 1T paqs 10 do TiJhf!"
It's little we re winning
BY soothing and SHINING:
TITS little We gain by q dissolute course;
For the glittering treasure,
Or moments of pleasure,
Are not worth the terrible pangs OF remorse.
IT'S better, far better,
TO loosen the fettcr
That binds to evil, while strong for the tight;
For, living or dying
There no use denying
That il pays to be good, and 10 pays IA do raght.
-J0Sephine Pollard, in ". 7. EedGer.

CHAPTER XIV.

CUMMING MEETS CUNNING.
Before quitting Paris, Dick wrote perhaps
the FIRST deliberate ana Colo-blooded lie OF
his life. Il was contained in a brief note to
Lydia that ran thus:
Il am Mortified to hear from Baudrcy OF
the abduction of the Princess Natalie. What
does it mean! 1t is the most daring. and at
the same tune dastardly and outrageous,
thing have ever heard. l have written
my friend, Mr.. FGirfax, about it. and pre-
sumo my letter will reach him soon after his
arrival in America. see, by the way, that
his name is il the list Of passengers that
sailed from Hayre. via the Vile de Lyons
on the 18th inst.-she very day before the
abduction.
''Peur Fairfax, hope some day he may
attain his Wish-tO become n man OF infiu-
encc His has been u peculiarly annoying
and trying career l shall often think on
nim far away IN that quiet little village OF
Drifton, in Pennsylvania Please God. we
shall have him here in year or two again,
although he says not"
This depression in his letter upon the sub
ject of Fairfax. the unselfish Richard had
inserted to please his oTn within The first
paragraph of the motto was really Fairfax
own composition.
Oxford said he had observed his friend's
