of meeting our old friend, JnO. Wilson, OF

the sights of his deadly rife. He informs
us that the law prohibiting the running

Uttered my life and have never looked

ooh, Deane! how you have suffered.
know now that my father wrote these

for being your fathers daughter, God
forgive him the misery he has wrought.
Take me buck and we may yet be
happy. Give me the right to guard
your life from every shadow, and will

There was wedding in church
near by that afternoon, with only old
Chloe and the sexton for witnesses.
As Fred Carew and his bride entered
their home little Deane ran toward her
father, then stopped in engagement as
she recognized "the pretty lady" Her
father held out his arms to her, saving,
Come here, Deanie. This is your new
mamma. She will never look sorry
again. She loves you, and you will
not be lonesome any more when pap,

The child ran to them and kissed
them both. "Oh! I am SO glad" she
said; II guess I found her for you,
didn't I, papa?"
Il guess you did, little Sunbeam:

Mrs. Fred Carew has beautiful

that wealth and love can purchase; but
she says that next to her husband and

division. Can it be that these are the
bodies of our late antagonists? Their
faces are so absolutely black that I
said to myself at first this must be o
negro regiment. Their eyes are pro-
truding from their sockets, their heads,
hands, aud limbs are swollen to twice
their natural size. All! there is little
left to awaken our sympathy, for all
those vestiges Of our common hui
manity which touch the sympathetic
chord are now quite blotted out. These
defaced and broken Baskets, emptied
of all that made them manlike. hu-

Death the Reaper must have

burying parties were already busily
engaged, and had put away to rest
many of our own men; still. here as
everywhere, I saw them scattered over
the fields. The ground was strewn
with muskets, knapsacks, cartridge
boxes and articles of clothing, with
carcasses of horses and thousands of

The Story OF Two Novels.

Two friends of mine spent each of
them the best part of the year 1883 in
writing and revising a novel apiece.
Both stories were published by leading
houses during the early part Of 1889.
They were we'll advertised, skillfully
handled, and both novels are, according
to the popular acceptance of the term,
successful-that is, they have been
widely written about. Photographed in
the press from one end of the country
to another; English editions have
been printed of each, and to every liter
airy person the names of both novels
and authors are thoroughly familiar.
Now, what have the authors received
in hard cash for their years work. 1
will tell you exactly: OF one, LOO
copies were sold; no royalty was paid
on the first thousand to cover manufac-
ture, ETC., and upon the remaining 700
copies the author received the regular
10 per cent. royalty. The book sold
for one dollar. The net revenue to the
author was, therefore, $40. His type
writer's bill was $61.5O. Net profit,
$3.50, and the book has stopped sell
ing. The other author was trifle
more fortunate in that his novel
reached sale OF 1900, all but five
copies. Like the first, he received a
10 Ter cent. royalty only after the first
thousand copies. Unfortunately, he
bong ht so many copies of his books for
friends that, when his publishers state
ment came, it showed a credit in his
favor Of just $3.50. Had he type.
written his manuscript, the novel would
have thrown him into debit And these
are bat two of score of instances
within my knowledge that I could cite.
