half enough covering on your bed But
that is easily remedied."
So saving she few round the room
with surprising rapidity, and began
piling the furniture on the invalid
bed. First the chairs, then the wash
stand, table, and foot-rest. just as she
began tugging at the dressing-case hu-
ried footsteps were heard outside in
the hall, and directly the door-knob
was tried. "Locked!" exclaimed a
well-known voice, that of the matron
'NIrs. Vernon never locks her door.
She must be in here, of all places"
"Open the door, Lisette, fell in tones
of mild yet firm command from the lips
of portly gentleman, one of the little
group.
cit is my Uncle Isaac! Anal" cried
the insane girl, gleefully. HE has
walked up and is seeking me. But we
will not let him in; he is too aupen-
g1ich. Shall l smash the door in his
face and astonish him little? I could
do it easily-easily! See how strong l
am" and she lifted the dressing-case as
few men could have done.
mo, no." cried Mrs. Vernon appre
hensively;" at least not until you have
got me hot jug for my feet" she
added with sudden inspiration; 'they
are very cold, you know"
"You are right" replied Lisette,
chat is of first Importance" and pluck
ing the key from her bosom, she un-
lock the door, only to find herself con-
fronted by the matron, one of the
house, physicians, and the strange
doctor, whom she at once hailed as
"Uncle Isaac"
1t is needless to say that she was
taken into custody, notwithstanding her
urgent protestation that she must get a
jug of hot water for Mrs. Verron's cold
feet.
The strain aud nervous tension over,
our poor invalid tainted away, and be-
fore consciousness was fully restored
the unwilling cause of all the trouble
was speeding as fast as steam could
carry her towards a more suitable
abiding place than a houseful of feeble
and nervous sick folks.

PEOPLE WHO LOvE Il DIM LIGHT.
Permit me to suggest measure OF
reform and relief which the Fifty-tirst
Congress might pass and which would
reflect greater luster upon President
Harrison's administration. It might be
entitled "a Bill for the Relief of People
who Walk in Darkness" or can Act to
Prohibit the Use of Gas by People who
Cannot Afford It." And I'll tell you
why favor such legislation. I am fond
of the light; I love airy houses with
many windows and not too many shades !;
1 enjoy bright rooms at night; I dislike
sleeping in dark room; don't care to
sleep under an electric light and know
that darkness rests the eyes, but al
ways want enough light around to en-
able me to distinguish a rocking chair
from bureau and door from a win
dow. But we can get along we'll enough
when we are asleep; what we want is
plenty of light when we are awake.
Well, now; you know the house [ mean
YOU have been in it, where the people
burn gas and economic with it. A
parlor as big-though not quite so
cheerful-as the morgue, is Lighted"
that isn't the word want, exactly, but
you know what l mean-by one burner
in chandelier Of half dozen, and the
dim religious light makes you feel as
though you were attending your own
funeral. Suppose you are guest and
come out Of your own room, leaving the
gas burning brightly; if you will return
in five minutes you will find that some
careful body has been in there and
turned the gas down till it burns blue.
If you venture to turn gas jet on to a
full head, that you may read, the
minute that you lay down the book
somebody turns down the gas. There
is one drop light in the sitting-room ;
around this ray of cheerfulness the fam
lily gathers, now and then looking
timidly over their shoulders toward the
shadows that lurk in the gloomy COR
ners of the room. The house, from
sunset to bedtime, is shrouded in a
CHASTITY twilight-no sort Of joke in
tended; it's subject too solemn for
TESTING. There is no economy in this
sort Of thing; gas bills never vary; and
it's no way to live. A dim religious
light is the boss light to 60 to sleep by,
but it's heathenish wicked to live by
Bata'Cette.

nov BOYS SHOULD TREAT GIRLS.

HOW BOYS SHOULD TREAT GIRLS.
Boys should always be polite to the
girls, however vexing they may be-.
When anybody is giving anything away
always let the girls have their turn first.
They like it. Girls are not SO strong as
boys, their hair is long and their faces
prettier, so you should be gentle with
them. If a girl scratches your cheek or
splits in your face don't punch her, and
don't tell her mother. That would be
mean. Just hold her tight behind the
arms for minute or two, till she feels
you could give it to her if you had a

.lT COULD NOT HAPPEN NOW. .
BY FREDERICK LANGpR1pGE.

Ere country ways had turned TO stfeet
And long ere zoe We're born,
A lad and lass would chance to meet
Some merry April morn;
The Willows bowed to nudge the brook,
The ccwslips nodded gay,
And he would look, ind she would look,
And both would look away.
Yet each--nnd this is 80 absurd
Would dream about the other,
And she would never breathe word
10 that good dame, her mother.
Our 0irIS are 7Dtser 1,O,U.
Twas very quaint twas very strange.
Extremely strange, you must allow.
Dear me! how modes and customs changed
1t could not happen now.
Next day that idle, naughty lass
Would rearrange her hair,
And ponder long before the glass
Which bow she ought to wear;
And often she'd neglect her task,
And seldom caro- to chat
And make her mother frown and ask,
"Why do you blush like thnt?"
And now she'd haunt with footsteps slow
That mead with cowslips yellow,
Down which she'd met week ago
That stupid, staring fellow.
Our girls are a0iser no,U.
Twas very quaint, twas very strange,
Extremely strange, you must allow
Dear me! how modes and customs changed
1t could not happen now.
And as for him, that foolish lad,
He'd hardly close an eye,
And look SO wobegone and sud
He'd make his mother cry.
"He goes" she'd say, from bad to worse!
NV boy, SO blithe and brave.
Last night found him writing verse
About lonely gravel
And 10! next day her nerves he'd shock
With laugh and song and caper;
And there shed find golden lock
Wrapped up in tissue paper
orr boys are aciser ',o'D
Twas very quaint, twas very strange,
Extremely strange, you must allow.
Dear me! how modes and customs change!
1t could not happen now.

Brig.ndAss in 1Gaoedonia.

Tho causes and character Of Macedonian
briEandags are complicated BY a possible
political element; but it isno easy matter to
learn tho true state Of ths question:. Turks
and philo- Turks assert positively that it Is
supported by secret societies in Bulgaria and
Greece, with the visw of discrediting the
Ottoman government in the eyes Of the DOW
ers; but Ia spite Of the preponderance of
Greeks in the brfgand bands one is loath to be-
ieve in the completely of the Greek nation,
even through secret society. In any case
the authorities are absolutely innocent of such
foul play, and do what they can in the alb
sence Of an extradition treaty. It would be
well, nevertheless, to be more careful, and
not to allow notorious ruffians to harbor in
Thessaly, as was asserted to be the case not
long ago, for no diplomatic jealousies ought
to give security to blood stained monster
like the infamous Nicko, who was said to have
lived for some lime at Larissa.
The taking Of Col Synge was the least Of
this brute's misdeeds the atrocious character
Of which shocked even his own villainous pro-
fession. Here i one which can be absolutely
certified. Some years ago he took two little
children, for whom he demanded four and
three hundred lras respectively. The larger
sum was paid, and, like strict man of bust
ness, he gave up the child; in the second case
he had to do with poor parents, to whom tho
sum demanded was an impossibility. Fifty
liras were sent up, and sent back again. The
wretched parents sold all they had, raised a
subscription, and got together another hun
dred. Nicko sent this back as before, with
the brief message that if he was not satisfied
in three days the child would not be living.
He kept his word; the parents received the
body in four quarters, and Nicko told his
own Mortified ruffians that business was bust
ness in this as in everything else.-Macmil.

again. This has q tendency to
make the coyote very tired, and he
IS soon easy prey for the fox hounds
