CHAPTER V.

When she found herself alone Filomena
sank on her knees and prayed tcrvently !:
then she threw herself on the bed, dressed
as she was. and, mUrmuring that she could
not sleep, fell into one of the heavy SUM
bers which benehcent nature so often sends

physical exertion. Her brain however, re-
manned painfully active. and she was visit
ed by the most horrible nightmares, IN
which she seemed over vainly striving 20 es-
cape some shadOwy danger, which. as soon
as she eludod it il one shape, changed ITS
form and menaced her III another still
more terrible
How long she remained in this phantom
haunted condition she never knew, but at
last she distinctly heard her dead fathers
voice saying in her ear: " Awake, child.

came so great that she awoke suddenly.
with her heart beating violently; and the
cold dew of terror on her forehead. As She
sat up in bed tryingto collect her scattered
senses she was startled by sharp rap at
the door of the cottage: this reused her
thoroughly, and she listened Intently. APP
parently her hostess had also been asleep,
for the knock was repeated impatlently,
and she could hear the old woman yawn-
ing and Dluttering 10 herself rs she shut
fled across the room and unfastened the
bolt; then she clearly distinguished the
heavy footsteps of two men entering the
room below.
What! sleeping. mother?" said gruf
voice. the hoarse tone of which had not
been improved by the night air.
You are late. my boys" responded the
old crone; "what luck have you hadY"

mule colt of such perfect proportions that
Padre AntOncllO. the parish priest, declared
she was q 10 mount ior The Cardinal Arch

that II would be san TO yoke her 10 the

YOUR AFTERNOON NAP.
The Siesta, as the Spaniards call 1t, In
valuable to Health.

From the Youths Companion.
The word siesta is Spanish and means the
short sleep after dinner in which most people
indulge who live in hot climates. The heat OF
midday is so enervating that it is impossible
then to do effective work, so that the siesta,
while it gives brief rest, does not cause a loss
of working hours. The need of a short map"
after dinner is not less here than in the torrid
zone. Its effect is to furnish a new supply of
nervous force; to do on smaller scale what
the nights sleep does on a larger one.
Both the climate of the country and our ma
tional habits tend to keep the brain and nerv-
Gus system at high tension. From youth to
old age we are on the race for wealth or posi-
ton. for pleasure or fashion. for reform or re-
ligion. How different is this from the indolent
life of the tropics. and even from life in the
European countries, where the pressure, per-
haps also the rewards of ambitious striving
may be less
We need something more than the midday
nap. We need to see that. without a radical
change, there is danger ahead for us. Indeed
much of it is already on us. in the rapid multi
plying OF apoplexy, paralysis, softening of the
brain. heart complaint, nervous prostration and
nervous ailments generally.
We need to force ourselves to take things
more quietly; to think more of the rest and
solace and duties of home, and less of the shop
and club and the parties of pleasure. We need
to preach up the virtues of contentment and
self-control and preach down the vice of all
consuming greed. But meanwhile, the mid
day nap is of vast help. 1t is wonderful how
much recuperative power there is in nap of
a few minutes. No one who has ever acquired
the habit of brief siesta has failed to expert
ence 1T, and perhaps there is no way in which
a quarter of an hour of our time every day can
be invested, with prospect of better divi-
dend IN health and length of days, than an
after-dinner nap.

ENGLAND SUPPORTS AMERICA.
The Governments Have Been I'm Accord
Throughout on Samoan Affairs.

A British blue book on the Samoan question,
containing dispatches from April 30, 1885, to
February %, 1889. was issued in London yester-
day. The dispatches show that England has
been Throughout in accord with America, and
that she declined to accede to Germany's re-
quest for assistance in the restoring Of order in
Samoa until she had learned the American
governments views.
On January 20 last, Lord Salisbury COM
planned to Count Won Hatfield, German am
bassador at London, concerning Prince Bis
marcks statement in the reichstag that in
Samoa Germany and England were advancing
hand in hand" The British prime minister
SAID that the views of the two countries were
identical as far as the future government of
Samoa was concerned, but not otherwise.
1t is now admitted in Berlin that Prince Bis
marcks efforts to form an alliance between
Germany and England have failed of contract
ing the alliance, and it is understood that he
still has hopes of bringing it about. 1t is this
hope which has induced him to invite the
Prince of Wales to visit Berlin.
The Cologne Gazette says that Germany, in
1887, III Difference to American opposition,
abandoned the idea OF the control of Samoan
affairs being vested in a single power.
