APPLE GATHERING.
BY SHIRLEY BROWNE.

Miss Marietta Carstairs might we'll
start as she sat in her cushioned chair by
the fire-light, drinking a cup of tea out
of the delicate old china which had be-
longed to Grandmother Carstairs, at
the apparition of tall, slight figure
with mans overcoat buttoned in loose
folds around it, so that the skirts nearly
touched the floor, mans boots pulled
up over the pretty feet, and felt hat
clappcd, in cavalier fashion, on the
back of the head.

"Pretty we'll done, isn't it2"
Miss Marietta stared harder than
ever.
"Is-it mas asquerade9" she asked,
doubtfully.
'Does it look like it3 No." Cas-
sandra swered. with spirit. "No;
I'm simply going to gather my apples.

to make it woman's work. After all,
how does it differ from nutting or
misletoe hunting, both of which are
supposed to be eminently feminine
accomplishments Old Jones is coming
here to- morrow morning at five o'clock
to take them to Weldtown. If they're
not gathered, of course they won't be
marketed; and those red-hcars apples
mean not less than twenty five dollars

Miss Marietta sighed. 81 wish /

'If," she repeated, brusqucly. 'But
what comprehensive if, Polly! I'd

"sooner than to ask that man to help

perfection-that high-bred aristocrat
that dcspiscs all women who-work !"
'.Is that the reason, Classy, that you
gather your apples after dark2 That he
shall not see you2"
''No." sharply answered Classy. But
Miss Marietta could see, in spite of the
dusk, the quick scarlet mount TO her
sister forehead. 81 gather them after

SCIENTIFIC SCRAPS

The longest time thus far reported
for an Misunderstanding to burn is TO-
608 hours.
Experiments are being carried out on
the Thames river with lifsboats pro-
PEELED by the reaction of water pumped
Rstern.
The electric lights have reduced the
average time of vessels passing through
the Suez Canal from 81 hours 81 min
utes to % hours 80 minutes.
In the purest airsubjccted to test for
the causes which produce the dimming
effect of haze there were about 81, 900
dust particles found in each cubic inch.
A novel feature of the coming exhi.
bition in Edinburgh will be working
ship railway in which the vessel will
be immersed in water while upon the
car.
1t is said that ten per cent. of alum,
added to plaster of paris while being
burned, renders it as hard as marble on
setting, and capable of taking fine
polish.
A color test for railway employer has
been introduced in the shape of device
consisting of a revolving series of
colored g.asscs lighted from behind by
flame and tinted like the lamps of the
signal boxes.
In tanning by electricity the ordinary
tan liquid is employed, and the hides
revolve slowly through it, while the
current from dynamo traverses the
vat and helps the tanning to combine
with the gclatine of the skin.
A skillful cork-cutter can produce
from 1900 to 1000 corks a day, his
only tools being two sharp. br oad-
bladed knives. Machines have been
introduced which can turn out about
1000 corks an hour, but they arc useless
for the cutting of the finer qualities.
A new sort of boot. solo has been in
troduced in Nure mbcrg. consisting of a
sort of trellis of spiral metal wire, the
interstices being filed with gutta
pcrcha and rosin. They can be fitted
with nails like ordinary soles, are fifty
per cent. cheaper than leather and
vastly more durable.
When Sir ]. Hcrschel was defending
the character of astronomical science in
view of an error ofnearly 4, 600, 900 miles
in estimating the suns distance. the
correction was shown to apply to an
error of observation so small as to be
equivalent to the apparent breadth of
human hair at distance of 125 feet.
1t is sometimes said that the branches
of very old trees are. properly speak
ing, roots, and that if planted upside
down the trees would flourish. Herr
Kny, German bo,anist, has recently
investigated the matter by planting
vines and ivy with both ends in the
ground and subsequently cutting them
at the arch. The experiments were
fair. successful, though not in every
instance; and Herr Kny intends to con-
tinue them with other plants and trees,
such as willows. poplars and roses.

"Yes, I believe you did," said DF.
Hartford, smiling; and now that Cas-
sandra looked him directly in the face.
he had certainly very sweet smile.
"And," added Cassandra, feeling
herself grow cold and hot by turns, 81
hit you with the lantern when you
were climbing down."
stAnd broke it-yes."
"And all the tina you were trying
to do me favor"
'In mistaken way, as ! now think
yes, I was," said the doctor. 81
should have asked your permission to
make myself of use."
Sand now," cried out Classy, clasp
ing her hands, "Tve shut you up all
night in a moldy Ice house-and I've
sent for the constable-and I've be-
haved worse than any gypsy girl could
possibly do, even down to using op
probrious Language and committing
assault and battery. Oh, Doctor Har-
ford! Inever shall dare to look you in
the face again."
And she fed up to the house, burst
ing into flood of passionate tears, as
she went, and ran straight down cellar
to hide herself.
'I'll go as female missionary to
Japan" sobbed Cassandra. ''Tll enter
sisterhood; I'll never show my face
again to any living soull''
But she did. She neither set sail for
Yokohama nor entered cloister; and
the very next day she went out driving
with DR.. Hartford.
''But why have you always disliked
me so9 Why have you refused to be
introduced to mea Why have you in
variably looked the other way when

81 don't know" said Cassandra, in a
low voice.
''Is there anything SO disagrceable
about me2"
"No, no." admitted Classy. "But ]
thought you looked naughty and super
cilious."
"Como," said the doctor, laughing.
"that's funny! thought it was me
that you dcspised! Was it because |
was doctor2'
"Oh, mol"
''Have y ou anything against doctors,
as rulea"
NO."
"Havc you anything against met" he
persisted.
mot in the least"
"Thcn, shall we be friends2' in a
coaxing voice.
And Classy agreed cordially.
How slight is the dividing line be-
tween friendship and love, Miss Mari
eta Carstairs alone can tell, for she
alone was the confdante of both these
deadly enemies turned into cxcelle Mt
friends.
Suffice it to say, that when next
years apple gathering came around,
DR.. and Mrs. Hartford both went out to
superintend the operation. Fashion

Returning Home.

Elders T. w. Brookbank and
James L. Patterson left LIVERPOOL
on Saturday, February S, 1899, per
Guion S. 5. HyOuliag, en- route for
their homes in Arizona. We regret
exceedingly to lose the valued ser
vices of Brother Brookbank, who has
labored very faithfully in the edi-
torial department OF the KIHenHial
Star for the past fifteen months.
His health has been falling for some
time in consequence OF not being
able TO endure the climate of this
country. Brother Patterson is re-
turning sooner than he would have
done, to be companion TO Brother
Br-okbank on the voyage. We
wish these faithful brethren n safe
return to their families, and the
blessing of God TO attend them in
their future experience.-Miiiennid

Casipo apera COMPANY.

''Eraini" is a very popular comic
opera and has been performed here
several times. It's reputation at
5-agted 4 full house last night at the
Grand. The company We're de-
layei on their way here md arrived
somewha. late and we suppose were
rather wearied with their Journey.
They did not seem to be in good
voice and many expressions Of dis
appointment We're heardamcng the
large audience. The parts o. ''Ja-
v0.-e'' and the two thieves were
vel sustained, the scenery was
COED, the dresses elegant. and the
o-.les-ra excellent, Jut there was
lite really good singing and the
chorus, though numerous, was
rather thin.
Tonight "Naijy'' viii hold the
boards. The company will be rested.
the opera had a long run in New

variety of new tricks appeared TO be
IN endless abundance. The plot Of
the piece has not been changed. 1t
deals with the adventures OF mortlis
IA other than earthly spheres. The
Obstetrics OF the deep are investi-
gated, and this visit is one not easily
forgotten. The dances OF the
witches, the spriteS, and especially
the ChOstly minuet, are beautiful
and lingering. The sword Comhat
under the sea, among most enormous
fishes, was cheered by the vast as
semhiage. This was followed by
the gigantic octopus swallowing IA

moth mouth, the beauty Of the
mermaid was revealed. In the

Or. W. Il. Tike was called to
Ncphi Sunday night, 10y telegram,
because of the serious condition OF
Mr.. Isaac Gadd, Of that city. Mr..
Gadd, who is the son-in-law Of
President William Paxman Of that
city, had been suffering for some
time past with an injury Of his
right knee. How the injured men,
Der became affected is not known.
Mr.. Gadd states that he don't recol-
Iect ever having hurt it. But the
last four months it has continued to
grow worse, necessitating attention
and surgical treatment. DIR. Pike
went to Nephi and stated that TO
all appearance the leg would have
to lie amputated. He said he
would not undertake the opera
ton unless he had the patient
under his care. SO arrange
ments were male for Mr.. Gadd's
removal to this city, and Tuesday
morning he was carried on a litter
10 the depot at Nephi and placed in
the baggage caTof the Utah Central
express, arriving in Provo at half
past seven. DIR. Pike intends, rs
soon as the patient has become
rested, to open the leg and see if is
is possible TO split the bone and take
out the decayed portion. II this is
impracticable, he viii amputate the
leg midway between the thigh and
the knee. Mr.. Gadd is n bright
young man Of about thirty years OF
age, and has wife and two chill
dren. Our sympathies are drawn
out in his behalf, and We sincerely
trust that he may come out of his
afiliction without the loss Of his
limb.-ProUo Enquirer.
