"On what other persons account should it

which she tried to keep down by forcibly
laughing at her nurses attempts at re-
monstrance
Pedrilla saw that it would be useless to say
more SO she patiently followed her mistress,
who set of running along the road as happy
as a lark escaped from prison, and as light as
hind bounding through a glade Every
now and then sne stopped, in order to give
Pedrilla time TO rejoin her; and, while wait
ing for the duenna, she would gaze with
rapture on the beautiful scenery that sur
rounded her.
Before her was the azure bay, in which
were seen in the distance the little verdant
islands of Procida, Ischia and Capri, three
graceful emeralds, placed there on purpose
to break the uniformity of this ocean of
sapphires.
On her left, Vesuvius raised its majestic
head, and the setting sun crowned it with
diadem of gold and fire; and behind her, on
the declivity of its hills, lay Naples. in the
form of an mphitheatre-Naples, that frag-
ment Of heaven, fallen by accident to the
earth-Naples, that ever smiling city, the
foot of which is washed by the finest sea of
ali the world, and whose head is hidden like
a driad beneath the shade of Pausilippo

CHAPTER III.
THE CABIN ON THE MERGRLL1YA.

THE CABIN ON THE MERGELLINA.
Ten minutes afterward, Masaniello brought
his bark and its occupants safely into the
roadstead of Pozzuoli. They Immediately
set off for Naples, whence they were distant
two good leagues. Such was the origin Of
the singular acquaintance which was formed
between the daughter of the viceroy and the
poor fisherman and his sister.
From that time Isabella constantly en-
deavored to inspire her father with some
compassion for the misery of the people. But
the viceroy of Naples, whose policy was in
spired by cold, unrelenting nature, and
whose heart was closed to every generous
feeling, facetiously joked his daughter on her
new "hobby;" and when she limited at the
possibility Of revolt, he replied, with a
burst Of laughter:
"The people, my dear child, are like beast
Of burden-the more you load them, the less
viii they kick"
A few days after her attempt to convert
her father, Isabella, who strove to persuade
herself that she was attracted by the sister
rather than by the brother. paid another visit,
with Dame Pcdrilla, to the cabin OF
Masaniello
Az they approached, they perceived Jeanne

Tobacco Smoke as q Disinfectant.


From the London Daily News.
We referred some time since to the revival
of the opinion that tobacco smoke is disin-
fectant. This was the old impression, which
scientific men, after some investigation, de-
cided to be entirely false. But this is an age OF
revivals, and science is beginning to find that
it has sometimes spoken in haste. This seems
to be the case with the Superstition" about
the possession by tobacco snyske of disinfecting
powers. There is basis of scientific fact
which tends to bear out that claim. Some
scientific and medical journals have lately
published an account of some experiments by
Mr.. v. Tassinari, which were devised in order
to put the question to further and decisive test
Smoke from cigar or cigarette was drawn over
piece Of linen which had been dipped into a
fluid containing numbers of microbes. When
the cigar was finished the linen was at once
placed in tube containing liquid in which
such germs could breed and multiply. The
experiment was repeated with a number of diff
ferent micro-organisms, including those OF
cholera, anthrax, and pneumonia, and, oil
course, check experiments were also made in
which the smoking was omitted. In every case
the effect Of the smoke was greatly to delay the
growth Of the organisms, and in some instances
Il was entirely prevented. 1t thus appears that
tobacco smoke II a. fatal to the microscopic
forms Of life a. il is to the small insect plaques
which infest our greenhouse plants. The au-
thor proposes to follow up his investigations in
the hope Of isoIating that part Of the smoke tc
which It's germicidl property il due, and 90 Of
possibly adding new disinfectant TO the Ions
list OF those We have.

"Cheek" Achieves Some Things.

From the Chicago Herald
There was quite big fire over ON the north
side the other night. Two young men saw the
reflection in the sky, hailed cab, and told the
driver to drive them to the scene of the con-
fagration. He did SO. When they arrived
there the burning structure was blazing
fiercely. Directly across the way was an unoc-
cupied building. yet unfinished. in the win
dows and open doorways of which were forty
or fifty people watching the progress of the
fire. One of the young men in the cab COM
planned that he could not see the fire. His
friend said that he would fix it," and. getting
out and going to a policeman near by he said
to him: Here, officer. how is it that those
people can oyerrun my building? They are
liable to deface it." The officer addressed
called two other policemen and together they
cleared the vacant building of sight-seerers il
jiffy. Then the cheeky young man and his
friend took possession all alone and watched
the fire.
