him, and he finally recovered 10 find
( himself the object of a great deal of at

could speak no Chinese or English, and
Wing had no comprehension of their

the solicitude with which they fed him,
and the interest they took in watching
the accumulation of fat on his ribs At
last the horrid truth dswned upon him

TO barbecue and eat him.
he attempted to escape, but was
captured and returned to the village and
put under guard. The fatal day arrived.
Wing was informed by pantomime that
an incision would be made in his neck
and his life fluid allowed 10 escape into
soapstone basin. He gave all up for
lost, when be was inspired by the sight
of Julie in tears. He made love to her.
She comprehended and went to ask

The remainder of the village protested,
and the chief was obliged to state why

and Wing begged them 10 take him
away with them. Wings father-in-law
gave him leave of absence for three
months and sent Julie along with him
TO insure his return.
MIXING THREE LANGUAGES.
They sailed away, and after much
marine wandering and transferring from
one vessel to another, arrived in San
Francisco. Wing had taste for the
needle and secured a job at tailoring
The faithful Julie proved an adept and
shares Wings labors. They still find
some difficulty in conversing Wing
knows a few words Of English and a few
Of Indian. Julie knows a few of En-
glish and few Of Chinese.
When their discussion becomes ami
mated they resort to all three languages

There is a little Wing now, and he il

Their home is on the top floor of a,Ros'
alley tenement, where Julie is rapidly
