vinced that he had seen her before. As he passed her he at once knew that she was the woman whom he had seen leaving the concert hall with Emerick a few nights after he first reached Buenos Ayres.
 He did not immediately accost her, but turned around and followed her. The woman appeared aware that she was being followed, and when Percy cautiously approached to speak she stopped suddenly and faced him. Her attitude was one of defense, but Percy's first words being spoken in clear En- glish, she felt reassured and kindly asked him what she could do for him.
 'T am searching for MT. Emerick," he replied. 'Can you tell me any thing of himP"
 'sMr. Emerickr' she said, in as- tonished tones. "Why, what have you to do with him?"
 Under the shadow of doorway they drew together, and Percy gave hurried outline of his recent adventures, wind ing up by asking her if she could help him in any way.
 ''I can and will, ," was the reply. 'T have some influential friends here who will soon restore you to your rights. Come to me at this address tomorrow and will see that a gentleman who can render you assistance is there to meet you."
 As she spoke she drew a card from her pocket, on one side of which Percy read the words Belle Lorimer, ":.and on the other her address, written in lead pencil.
 Percy spent that night in 8 miserable lodging house that was scarcely better than the mud hut which had been his shelter during the cold night on the Pampas; but he did not sleep much, his anxiety being too great, and was out on the streets again in the early morn anxiously awaiting the hour when he could meet Belle Lo Timer.

 THE HEALTH OF MIR. HUNTLY. soon stick one of their long, gleaming knives into me as thAy would into a bull lock-" said Percy.
 "Oh, no; not one of them dare lay a hand on you unless you attempt to es. cape, without my orders, 7" was the reply.
 ''Then you propss to force me to spend tho rest of my natural life on this farm among these Alood-curdling sur roundings2"
 "Unless you will comply with condi- tions that I will name, I do most certainly" answered the Spaniard.
 And what are Eour conditional" asked Percy.
 Few and simple" was the reply. ''Get your friends ts pay me a ransom of ten thousand Amarican dollars and you are free the day they pay 1t. But should they make thS least attempt to effect your rescue Eill kill you with my own hands, if naed be, to prevent it."
 "If my friends weSa asked to pay the money they would refuse, knowing that by q determined efS0rt they could re lease mo without doSag so. As such an effort would only cent me my life, shall not ask them te take other means to effect my delivsry."
 "In Q few weeks you may change your mind, so l will give You little time to think it over. In the meantime you will remain here ana do whatever Mir. Van Nepp deems necessary and proper. If you refuse him it will be so much the worse for you.~ These were the last words the SpaniArd uttered as he rode away.
 Shortly afterwards Percy was we'll and strong again. He did not devote his time to uselesslJ bswailinR his fate, but went to work at whatever the Dutchman told hin to do and on.

APretty Dutch Custom.

Quaint and pretty is the Dutch fash ion of hanging sweet-toned harps against the doors. These delicately strung in- struments are called orchal harmonichal tn the fatherland, and ring high, clear welcome as the stranger enters. The majority of them are two feet broad and possibly thirty-six inches in length. They have various fancy convolutions on the top and two sides of their wood en frames, with sounding board hav- ing seven strings strung diagonally across. Above project the pegs, from which depend flexible wires with round metal balls on the end, gilded and so adjusted that each one will strike it's particular string. A key keeps the harp correctly tuned, and the whole is painted to harmonize with the room in which it is hung. Now, every time the door is jared, be it ever so little, the gold balls fall a-jangling on their taut wires and light, thin music is the re- sult.-1llustrated American.

Artificial Skull-Shapino.

Astonishing success has. attended the
efforts of DR.. Lannelongue, an eminent
specialist of Paris, to give intelligence to
little idiot girl. Though four years
old, the child could neither walk nor
stand, and never smiled nor took notice
of anything. The doctor concluded that
the abnormal narrowness of the head OBJ
ssructed the growth Of the brain, and in
May last he made al iucision in the
center OF the skull and cut piece Of
bone from the left side of it. The re-
suit was marvellous. Within less than a
month the child could walk, and she IS
now quite bright, playing, smiling and
taking notice of everything around her.

The Death Plant,

The Farmers Magazine, published at
Parkersburg, Penn, contains the follow
ing:
A magnificent kali mujah, or death
plant Of Java, has recently been received
here by Mrs. Madison Black. The speci-
men, which is the only living one that
has been brought to this country, was
sent Mrs. Black by her brother, Jerome
Hendricks, who went out as mission
ary to the island. The kali mujah is
found only in the volcanic districts of
Java and Sumatra, and then but rarely.
1t grows from two to three and half
feet in height with long, slender stems
armed with thorns nearly an inch long,
and covered with broad, satin smooth
leaves of a heart shape and of a delicate
emerald on one side, and blood red,
streaked with cream, on the other.
The flowers of the death plants are
large, milk-white and cup-like, being
about the size and depth of large cof
fee cup and having the rim guarded by
fine, briar-l like thorns. The popularity
Of the plant lies in these flowers, which,
beautiful as they are, distill continually
deadly perfume SO powerful as tc over
come, if inhaled any length of time, a
full grown man, and killing all forms of
insect life approaching it. The perfume,
though more pungent, is as sickingly
sweet as chloroform, which it greatly re-
scmbles IN effect producing insensibility,
but convulsing at the same time the
muscles of the face, especially those
about the mouth and eyes, drawing the
former up into grin. An inhalation IS
followed by violent headache and a ring
ing in the ears, which gives way to a
temporary deafness, often total while it
| lasts.
Other plants seem to shun the kali
muIah, which might be termed the Ish-
macl of the vegetable kingdom, for it
grows isolated from every other form of
vegetation, though the soil may be fer
tile. All insects and birds instinctively
seem to avoid all contact with it, but
when Accidentally approaching it have
been observed to drop to the earth, even
when as far from it as three Feet, and,
! unless AZ once removed soon dies, evin-
cling the same symptoms as when ether
lied.
Mr.. Hendricks, who writes ,sdescribing
| how he secured the specimen sent his sis
ter says he discovered it drst by seeing q
Dir Of paradise he was endcavoring to
| capture alive fall, stunned By the deadly
| odor of the kali mujah, aad on eyamin-
| in the plant, though warned By the ma
| tiees to let it alone, himself experienced
thc headache and conyulsions which ane
/ its iavariable results.
