Thus, as in a dream OF luxury, followed
by many ships, we glided on toward the
wooded slopes of Taurus, at whose foot
lay that ancient city Tarshish. And as
we came the people gathered on the banks
and ran before Us shouting: Venus ID

and an It's people-every one who could
walk or be carried-croWded down in
Thousands TO the docks, and with them
came the whole army Of Antony, so at
length the Triumvir was left alone upon
the Judgment seat.
With them came Dellius, the false

name Of Antony gave the Queen OF
Beauty greeting, biddi1g her to a feast
that Antony had made ready. But she
made high answer, and sid: 'FOrsOoth,

We on Antony. Bid the noble Antony to

an open countenanCe, wherein his thoughts
we're writ so clear that all might read them

power Of the brow. He came accompanied
by his generals, and when he reached the
couch wherein Cleopatra lay, he stood as
tonished, gazing on her with wide-0per ed
ewes. She, too, gazsd on him earnestly;
saw the red blood run up beneath her skin,
and a great plng Of jealousy seized upon
nv heart. AID Charmion, who saw all
beneath her downcsst eyes, saw this also
and smiled. But Cleopatra spoke no word,
only she stretched out her white hand for
him to kiss; and he, saying no word, took
her hand and kissed IT,
"Bshold, noble .Antony2' she said at

Veneer from Persian walnut.

French walnut is said to be the cost
lest of all cabinet woods. Tt does not
come from France at all, but grows in
Persia. Circassia, and Asia Minor. To
work the logs into veneers, they first
steam them until they are almost as
soft as butter, then fasten them to an
iron beam, which revoIves around a
finely tempered knife with q razor-Iike
edge OF the same length as the log
Every time this beam turns around, it
moves q fraction of an inch nearer to
the knife, and q thin sheet of wood Is
shaved off smoothly and laid on pile
on the floor. These sheets are 1-120 Of
an inch In thickness, but frequently
veneers are made as thin as 175 to the
inch. The veneers used on furniture
are somewhat thicker, the thinner ones
being used on picture frames. They
are backed up with paper before being
glued on The latter are also used to
some extent for covering walls

As the winter comes on, the snail
becomes sensible of the approach of
resistless lassitude, scoops a hole in
the ground, lines and covers the cham
Der with kind of mortar made Of dead
leaves and slime, and, retiring within
this cell, proceeds to make itself more
snug by closing the mouth of its shell
with a diaphragm which gradually
hardens, but is infinitely perforated
opposite the respiratory Orifce. As
the animal withdraws further into its
shell other slime plates are made,
which act on the principle of double
windows, inclosing a layer Of air be
tween each pair, and so effectualIy
protecting him from the cold. With
the return of spring, when the woods
are melodiOus with the songs of birds
intent on the perpetuation of their
species, the snail reappears and sets
about making a nest-Iike hole in the
ground, wherein its eggs, a cluster of
from thirty to fifty-in form resem bling
the berries of the mistIetOe-are by

perhaps, twenty days, when the young

two cats In the family. One was
slender, genteeIIy shaped Maltese, very
active In her temperament and exceed
ingly nimble in her motions. It was a
pretty sight to see her gamboling with
her kittens, or leaping up in the air to
snap at a passing fly. On such occa-
sions I often used to wish that her
portrait could be taken by the famous
Swiss artist, whose wonderfully nat
ura1 feline pictures gained for him the
name of "The Cat Raphael"
The other cat was old and infirm.
He was called Grizzly Tom, on ac-
count of the color of his fur Whether
rheumatic pains and aches made him
irritable. 1 know not, but for some
reason or other he was the crOssest
beast that one sees in a lifetime, His
iu-temDar was particularly manifested
toward the kittens, of which Pussy
Malta had several broods year. Woe
to them it, while chasing their own
tails, they tumbled on him as he lay
stretched out in the sunshinei All
agreed that Grizzly Tom was NUS
ance, but he had lived in the family
from kittenhOod, and they had not the
heart to order his execution. So he
lived on, splitting and growing, claw
ing and scratching, whenever ne was
not asleep. He and Pussy Malta did
not come to blows, for she was too
busy to attend to fighting, but she
never sought his company, and while
they We're tapping milk from the same
little trough she would keep one eye
on the lookout to see what he was
likely to do next:
One day Pussy Malta came in from
the barn uttering the most piteOus
cr-es. Whether she had been kicked
by the horses or had eaten something
poisonous, we never knew; but her
suferings we're most painful. Not
withstanding the application of warm
bath and warm blankets, the swelling
continued to increase and her limbs
twitched convulsiYely. Grizzly Tom,
who was sleeping on the "stoOp," was
reused by her first cry, and came look
ing in at the door to see what was the
matter. 1 never saw any dumb crea-
ture express sympathy so humanity as
he did. He walked slowly round and
round Pussy Malta, looking at her
wistfully, and now and then laying his
paw gently on her fur, as if he wanted
to say, II wish I could help thee. But
nothing availed. In less than an hour
she was Iifeless. Her hunting days
1 were OF6Ls duL SIG WOh1u never az 4l
! fTisk with her kittens.
She left three little orphans, so
| young that their eyes were not yet
| opened. When their mother breathed
her last, they lay curled up together in
a little furry heap, on bit of carpet in
a corner of the stoop, all unconscious
| Of their loss. Grizzly Tom had watched
| all that was done for Pussy Malta,
| ever and anon tOuchinc her gently with
his paw. When she lay stretched out
cold and stiff, he looked at her a min
ute, and licked her fur. Then he
walked off to the stoop, and lay down
! by the blind kittens, putting his paw
over them prOtectingly. From that
moment he never deserted them till
they were old enough to take care OF
| themselves; and, though they often
leased him 9y pulling his fur or pay
| ing with his tail when he wanted to
| sleep. he never struck them a blow.
