A FEMALE SWINDLER.

How She VictImized Boston Firm to
 the Extent of Thousand Dollars.
 There is a thousand-dollar counter felt note in the possession of the secret service bureau in New York with an in' teresting history. One morning, not so very long ago, handsomely dressed lady entered one of the largestdry goods houses in Boston and, after selecting shawl worth S25O, tendered genuine one thousand-dollar bill in payment. The note was, of course, carefully scrutinized and finally sent to neigh boring bank, where it was vouched for. When the lady was informed of its ac- ceptance she became indignant and ex- pressed in no measured tarnas her oPin- ion of a firm that would for a moment suspect her honesty. So wrathy was she, indeed, that she refused to take the shawl, and, replacing the money in her pocket-book, left the store.
 Later in the day she returned. Her anger had disappeared and she explained that, having walked all over Boston without being able to find shawl that suited her, she had returned to apolo- gize for her hasty action and to take the shawl she had first selected. Again she rendered $1,000 note-not a genuine one this time, but a closely executed counterfeit.
 Of course the firm accepted the money, believing it to be the genuine note, without question, and the woman de- parted with her shawl and $75O in change. The swindle was not diseov- cred until the counterfeit was rejected at the bank. The note was sent to the secret Service Bureau, where its history is occasionally related to interested vis- itors. The woman was never caught 1 Boston Herald,

Consequently Percy left the city with out a word being sent to the outer world to announce his reappearance in the land of the living. It was a forum ate thing that such was the case, for 1t gave him the chance to follow up the trail with greater certainty of overtak' inr the man for whom ho was search ing.
 He lost no time preparing to shake tho dust of Buenos Ayres from off his feet and in a few days he was bound for New York over precisely the same route which the objcc of his pursuit had taken few months before.
 In an inside vest pocket of his travelling suit he had placed tho little package which Belle Lorimer had given him, but it never occurred to him to examine it. There 1t lay and did not sec daylight during the whole of tho voyage.
 Upon arriving at New York he pro ceeded at once to the house in Gramercy Park, but was surprised. on applying { Tor admission. to find that his friends
 wore no longer living there. He in-
 quired whither they had gone and was told that they had left for Europe. 1 Again he found himself aimlessly walking the streets of a great city, but i this time he was better prepared for an

VLndictive Energy of Patriotic Son o4
 Bonnie Scotland.
 That eminent political economist who defined murder as "a salutary check to over-population" was certainly an ad- vanced theorist in his own way; and so. too, was that famous surgeon who spoke of tho battle of Waterloo as "a colossal example of unscieLtific dissection" But both these admirable men have been completely thrown into the shade by number professor of the same school, who figured in an adventure that befell no less person than Sir Walter Scott
 During one of the great novelist's journeys through the north of England he was attacked by slight indisposi- tion while halting at Q small village near the Scottish border, and sent out his servant in quest of a doctor. The man soon returned, and ushered in stout elderly person, in whom Sir Walter recognized, to his no small surprise, former servant of his own.
 ''Why, John," cried he, ''is this really you@'
 "Ay, it's me, Sir Walter" answered the visitor; land I'm varra glad to see ye again. I hae gotten some O thae lthosel story-boobs O yours yet, and they're jist grandl Whiles [sometimes1 canna sleep, and then jist talk ane O yon books O yours, and read a wee bit, and, WOW! I'm fast asleep f five min- utes!'
 "Well," said Scott laughing good humoredly at this rather doubtful com pliment, 'g'm very glad that any book of mine can do so much good. But, tell me, John, how came my man to bring you here? I sent him out to fetch me a doctor"
 "Weel," replied John, with quiet dignity, 'T myself am jist Me doctor here"
 Sir Walter was thunderstrucl1, as we'll he might be, knowing as he did that John was as ignorant of medicine as of Chinese.
 '1 should hardly have thought of you turning doctor, John," said he at length. "Pray what drugs do you use?"
 "I hae jist twa O them, Sir Walter calomy and lodomy" (calomel and lauda- num.)
 But, my good John," cried Scott, shuddering involuntary at the idea of such a pharmacopoeia in such hands, with drugs like those do you never happen to-ahem!-to kiu any one?"
 'KStlP'' echoed John with vindictive energy to which no words can do justice "Kill the Englishers? It will be lang ere can mdk' up foU Flodden!" Kerr, in Editors Drawer of Harper's Magazine.

Fruits of Courtship.

Ned Grimes wore sad countenance. He was often asked what was the mat ter; but no satisfactory answer was forthcoming. At length, an intimate friend obtained the following particu- lars of him:
 "You know," said Ned, 'I have been courtipg Sallie w. long while; and so we had a great notion of getting mar ried, when that darned old Colonel"
 ''Go on, Ned, don't be boy; what about Colonel-?"
 ''Why. you see, Sally said had bet ter ask him; and so did, as perlite as knowed how"
 'Well, what reply did he make"
 "Why, he kinder hinted round as if want wanted there!''
 "Well, Ned, let us know what the hints were-what the Colonel said to disturb your mind so."
 "Why, he said if he catched me there again, he would cowhide me till hadn't an inch of skin left on my back; darn his old picterr'-N. Y. Ledger.

that fortune which lies waiting for m owner, and the sooner we commence the better." So spaLe Eugene.
 Persuasion had failed to destrSy the young mans morals, but the green eyed monster had gained an easy victory over his good intentions
 "Now you are talking sense, my boy. We will get to business at once. have . man ready to go to New York and know he will act fair and square and divide with us when the time comeR So the sooner you get that handwriting the better. If you have any smartness at all about you you can easily do it, and we must have the writing to carry the thing through" These were tho words which EugeRe's answer elicited. He listened attentively and asked:
 ''Well, what do you propose to dop'
 "The first step will have to be taken by you," said Emerick, 'but will make a suggestion The man who is to per sonate Percy Lovel is an expert pen man and can easily learn to sign his name like the Englishmsn, but you must get the copy; and the best means I know will be this: you had better maintain your pleasant relations with the Delaros and tell Armida that you made a great mistake which need not sever your friendship. You will then be speedily reinstatOd in your former position with the family. Then some afternoon-the sooner the better-try and persuade that fat old Blodger, whom you say is with them, to take Armida and his fat boy to the exhibi- tion, or anywhere out of the way, and you can stay to keep Mrs. Delaro c0m- pany. If you do not make an oppor-
 tunity during that time to get one of that Englishman's letters you are not quito as active and smart as think you ! are."
 "Yes," replied Eugene. "That ap- pears to be feasible plan, and the least we can do is to give it trial"
 So they parted on this understanding, little thinking under what auspices ; their next meeting would take place.
