rich damask curtains, drawn aside, ro- vealed tho snowy world outside, where the keen winter winds whistled sarilly. A few chattering snow-birds flew wildly about, and now and then a passer-by walked swiftly past. All within was warmth and luxury; outsii cold and bitter wind; but to the pai,id iAcs on the pi..ow snow and sun were plike unhceded. Sine had passed the line where earthly elements cease to vex us.
 I sat down near the head of the bed and took one of the cold hands in mine. She smiled up in my fccc.
 "You are kind to me, Dorcas, little Dorcas that wronged so fearfully," she murmured, dreamily. ''Yet he was cruel" she cried. suddenly. "TIe knew how madly, how fierccly I loved him; yet he did not heed me. I was pooT-so poor, and he was rich; ah, mel how rich and handsome was Phillip Caledon, with that dark bonnie beauty that wins women's hearts so easily"
 She paused. I listened breathlessly. Of whom was she spealSingl My heart beat hard and fast with expectation, but she was silent. She soc-led to have been talking more to herself than to me. But presently she started up suddenly.

 "You are better now, Dorcas," he said, his tones calm as though we had met but yesterday. "I must look after Miss Armund, Tor fear she is hurt. We should never have escaped but for her." he added, as he rose to his feet and assisted me up.

THE PROFESSOR AHEAD.

Scholastic Jokes That Worked on the Boomerang Principle.
 A teachers standing, says the Lewis ton (Me.) Journal, frequently depends more on his ability to deal with human nature than with the intricate problems of the textbooks, and this applies to colleges as we'll as primary schools. A wel1-known professor of one of our Maine colleges has always been dreaded moro by the incoming freshman olasS than any other man on the faculty. This feeling wears away somewhat dur ing the last part of the course, but there is always an awe-inspired atmos- phere as thick as Q Down-East fog bank in this mans classroom, be tb filled with qual1ing freshmen, or self satisfied seniors. Jokes have, however, frequently been tried on him, since col 1ege boys are very brave when they think their tracks are covered, but tho jokes have usually been found to have double back-action kick, like an old dint-lock musket.
 With the, expectation of getting an "adjourn" from his recitation the next day, some scamp one night broke into this professors classroom and painted every seat in the room with fresh paint. When the class assembled the next day, the professor said very blandly: "You can sit down, gentlemen, or stand up, just as you please. Mir. A, will you please demonstrate-,' etc.
 The class stood for the full hour, it's members finding relief by standing first on one foot and then on another.
 On another occasion when the mercury had dropped below zero another attempt was made to get an adjourn" The stove and every window was removed from the reoitation-room, but the pro-, lessor was found there at the usual hour seated comfortably in his chair with overcoat, winter cap and woolen gloves on, and without discomfort to himself conducted a recitation of an hours length, with heavens breezes wander ing uninterruptedly through the room.

Leeend of vassar CoIIsrc.

"The old legend at our college" says . Vassar girl, "is that in former times the words 'Vassar Female College were done in stone on the front of the build ing. One night so runs the tale, there came great storm, and the F and B were taken of, leaving it 'male.' This the elements knew to be incorrect, so 0 second storm obligingly took of the M. The 'Vassar Ale College was, however, too suggestive of the manner in which the founder made his money, so the trustees had 'ale' chipped, and to-day 1t reads simply Vassar College"

Iwcut up to my room and sat down by the hre, in dreary, unhappy mood. Miss Armund was dead, and she had died with out revealip 2 the secret of my birth, which felt sure sine possessed. She had only bab- bled meaninglessly of people who were nothing to me. What mattcred itl I said her talk of Philip Caledon he was naught to me, surely.

 'Hou had better go down, Dorcas, and greet them," she said; :'Mrs. Lieberg evil dently thinks you are acquainted with them, and has sent up word for you to meet them. :"

 It is not to be wondered at that I felt some. trepidation on entering. But, reso- lutely swallowing my fears, I crossed to where Mrs. Clayton was standing with her daughter, proud, beautiful Irma Barrett at her side bowed and extended my hand to them in token of friendly greeting But what was my amazement and chagriu when they only returned my salutatioh with a naughty, inauiring stare, as if we were the most distant strangers. felE ready to sink with shame and modification, for saw all eyes were fixed upon me, and my first inn pulse was to rush from the room and hide myself, drown myself, any thing only that might be spared the insults this family had heaped upon me. But the next moment my proud spirit asserted itself. Iwould not be aselled or beaten without struggle. I stepped back cooly.
