 Get upl you cannot" said his wife; besides the doctor has told us not to disturb her. She has been sleeping naturally for two hours.
 Naturally" he cried, ''then she will recover.
 Do not rejoice too much" said l Mrs. Dormoy. "but she is certainly much better than she was yester- day"
 The following day she said-''She is improving; Courage, the doctor said as he left her"
 That meant" exclaimed the father, that we may hope" Outside ot the room; the poor woman's $ sobs burst forth, as she ran to the bedside ofher daughter, whose l agony, sweet and calm, had lasted since morning. She arrived in time I to see her breathe her last. She | pressed kiss to the cold brow ofthe dead girls, and then sinking down, gave way to her despair | A form came forth from behind the great white curtain. The mother made gesture of repnlsion, IS the young girl, pale and sad stood be- fore her, and said slowly: l s'I am now Lucienne.h The next day, while the church bells tolled, and all the weeping ueighbors walked behind white bier laden with flowers, the blind man shut np in his tiarkened room, 1 dreamed that Lucienne was cured, and that she stood before him.
 1t is best that he should never know of her death, snid the neigh bors who shared in the secret
 The following day the blind man, feeling better insisted on seeing his daughter.
 She Is too weak to come" said his wife.

preiadieed people.

Persons without preiudices are gen. orally insipid. They are very nice people morally. but usually lack force of character.
 We like men who have decided opin- ions of their own on all important subjects. and who make a stout fight for them even when in tho wrong, for in the sharp attrition between minds Of opposite prepossessions many a brilliant spark Of truth Is struck out.
 Every human being Is. or ought to be. prejudiced in favor of his native land, says the New York Ledger We have no sympathy with your cosmo- politan who tells you that all countries are alike to him. lt Is not necessary that any Englishman who loves Eng land should hate the French; or that an American who insists that the un- ited States is 'rhe most enlightened nation under tue sum should depre- ciate the another coantry.n To believe that there is no place like home is wholesome. Christian par tiality; but to laugh another mans home to scorn because it Is not fac simile of one's own, is illiberal and ungentlemanly
 There Is no harm in being prajudicea in favor Of one's country. ones family, or one's friends; but your people who will quarrel on the ninth part of a hair out Of sheer obstlnancy and liti- giousness of spirit we most cordially despisc.

How the Plano Grew.

The piano, as We see it to-day, is the growth of centuries of invention. In it's infancy it was harp with the two or three strings. From time to time more strings were added, and, after while the cithara was born. The cithara was in the shape of the letter r, and had ten strings. It took many centuries for musicians to get the idea of stretching the strings across an open box, but somewhere about the year 1900 this was thought of and the dulcimer made it's appearance, the strings being struck with hammers. For another hun 1rcd years these ham Iners were held in the hand of the player, and then genius invented q keyboard, which. being struck by the fingers, moved the hammers. This instrument was called a clavi- cytherium, or keyed cithara. This underwent some notifications and improvements from time to time In Queen Elixabeth's time it was called virginal. Then it was called d spine, because the hammers were covered with spines of quills, which struck or caught the strings of wires and produced the sound. From HOO to 1900 it was much enlarged and improved, and called hnrpsichord, and this was the instrument that Lady Washington, Mrs. Hamilton and the fine ladies of our revolution nry times played upon. In ITO, Bartoldmco Cristofoli,. an Italian, invented n key or keyboard, such as we now have substantially, which caused hammers to strike the wires from above, and then developed the piano. In the past 15O years therc iS no musical in6trument which has so completely ahsorbed the inven- tive faculty of man as the piano. Tho rsason is obvious; 1t h the househeld instrument pr ezcollsnce.

Will the Earth Fall to Pieces?


 One writer asks whether it is safe to bore the earth too much. He as- sumes the earth to be n hollow sphere filled with n gaseous substance called by us natural gas. and he thinks that tapping these reservoirs will cause disastrous explosions, result ing from the lighted gas coming in contact with that which is escaping. Earthquakes, he says, arc probably caused by vacuums created by the outflowing gas. He compares the earth to balloon floated and kept distended by the gas in the interior. which, if exhausted, will cause the crust to collapse. affect the motion of the earth Ill its orbit, cause it to lose it's place among the heavenly bodies and fall in pieces
 Another writer thinks that boring should be prohibited by stringent laws. He, too. thinks there Is a pos sibility of an explosion, though from another cause. should such disas- ter occur the country along the gas belt from Toledo through Ohio, In- diana and Kentucky will be ripped up to the depth of 1 200 or l ,500 feet and Topped over like pancake, leaving chasm through which the waters of Lake Erie will come howl ing down, filling the Ohio and Mis- sissippi Valleys and plotting them out forever.
 Still another theorist has investi- gated the gas wells with telephones and delicate ethermometers, and he an- nounces startling discoveries. He dis tinguished sounds like the boiling of rocks, and estimated that a mile and q halfor SO beneathF Findlay the temper ature of the earth Is $500 degrees. l This scientist says an immense cavity exists under Findlay. and that here l the gas is stored, that mile below l the bottom of the cavity is a macs Of roaring, seething flame, which is gradually eating into the rocky floor of the cavern and thinning it. Eventually the flames will reach the gas, a terrific explosion will en- sue, and Findlay and it's neighbor- hood will be blown skyward in an instant. Such are some of the the ories gravely propounded in respect ! to this new flel,--

 oily this was easy for the guilty girl paling before her father. She was full of vigor, yes she felt herselffaint- ing.
 The blind man shook his head and said, "She must be kept quiet;" then in whisper, "She is not yet out of danger"
 In a short time the father became strong enough to resume his after noon walks. His neighbors saluted him heartily and many among them congratulated him on the recovery of his child.
 "Yes, yes," he aswered, "She is well again. Her life has been spared. We are both strong"
 Oh! how long and delightful to the blind man were those walks with his cherished "Lucienne," but they were full of pain to Adrienne, who offer ed her right arm to the old man, this arm which had been diseased ever since it was broke in her clildbood. If she should fail once to conceal her identity in this way, it might lead to the discovery of her deception and it would bring shame to her and death to her father.
 But she never forgot her role, and crushing back her own personality she tried to become more and more like Lucienne Oftentimes when the old man, whose legs became more and more weak. leaned heavily upon her arm, shesaid smilingly, Father, support yourself more on me-"
 No one thought of disputing her right to Lucienne's name. So dead became her old self that she atlength almost believed that she was indeed Lucienne The pages of her life's romance were burned by hot tears.
 "Where are we?"said the old man to her one day.
 Rue des Dames."
 "Let us hasten, do not like this street."
 "Why?v said the girl suddenly for getting the past.
 "Bacause they say that she lived here"
 "Who?"
 "How can you ask? Adriennel"
 "Ah!"
 "Oh, my father" said Adrienne who always listened sadly, ''it is no, right to blame her now; she is not here to defend herself"
 That is her fault. Her place is here"
 No, her place is elsewhere. ]"
 As the blind man raised his head in astonishment, Adrienne carried away by emotion, said:- "She is dead" 'Dead?" repeated the old man in a trembling tone. 'Yes, ask the neighbors.
 Strange, had u presentment ol 1t. Deadl'' repeated he, wiping away his fast falling tears, dead, what a happinessl The thought that she was still alive often tortured me. Let us never speak of her again.
 "Ohl neverl'i said the poor sob ping girl, what good can it do, since she is dead?'
