THE END.
A Musically Inclined Rodent.

For some time past grand piano in
an East End house has shown signs of
indisposition. Certain chords invariably
sounded dull when struck, and the bril-
Gancy of tone which had been sold at a
very high figure with the makers name
had disappeared. But nobody attributed
the decadence of the instrument to any
thing but little too much use perhaps.
A surprise was in store for them
The other night the household and a
few guests were assembled in the music
room. One Of them, a lady of great
ability as pianist, sat down at the in
strument and began to play. The muf-
fed effect was more noticeable than
ever. Somebody suggested that an in
quest be held on the piano. Then one
of the ladies without more ado lifted the
cover of the piano-and-well, there
was panic.
A big rat jumped out from among the
strings and galloped across the room.
It escaped, of course, for everybody was
too much astonished to attack it. There
were screams and great leaping upon
chairs. When everybody cooled down
the inquest proceeded. 1t was found
that the rat had made a comfortable
nest Of paper among the wires. The rat
had evidently keen sense of the fitness
of things as well as love of music, for
its nest was found to be made of selec-
tons from Beethoven's sonatas, with a
few scraps of Chopin. There was not
trace of "Annie Rooney" or comic opera
in the nest. How the rat got there, why
it staid there, and what the effect of a
training upon the rat is likely
to be are still unanswered Pittsburg

So little thought of fear had she had
when she came to the lonely little house
IN Corinna that she had not once
dreamed of providing herself with pis-
toll How she regretted it at this mo-
ment! A heavy water pitcher was the
only thing that offered itself as an often
slve weapon. She seized it by the ham
die, and placed herself between the door
and the bed.
"f they have come for Carlos they
shall only take him over my dead body!"
she muttered. But now the door opened,
and by the pale light of the night lamp
she saw a bulky figure enter. A long
linen ulster was buttoned about it, a
cap was drawn down over its ears, and
It's features were covered by a bit Of
Grape. One fear, her greatest, departed
at the sight. The officers of the law
would not present themselves in such
guise as this.

corded her Isabelle had great strength
for one of her sex, and the power of love
is mighty. She was almost desperate
for she did not yet know whether it was
a living man or dead body which she
held In her arms-whether she were al
the moment wife or widow.
At last their burden was laid unon
the mattress, which had been spread
upon the old work table.
The blanket was flung back. and the
strangely revealed face of Carlos de Ia
Rosa was revealed. 1t seemed like the
face of death to Genie More.
"Oh, Isabelle! 1t is hopelessl It is
hopelessl" she cried.
''Not SO, cried the other. "Remem-

Yolande set to work. The other girlish
doctor kept herself calm enough to do
what she was hidden to do.
"Look!" said the young wife at last in
a strange, deep voice. ''Look! His lips
are growing red; the muscles of his
cheeks novel"
"He is breathing" replied Genie.
They continued their manipulation with
renewed hope. There was much still to
do. Before nightfall Carlos de la Rosa

reader must not think that Isabelle did
not long for that "good cry" in which
overweight women love to indulge.
She was very womanly indeed when
she thought Of her rescued Carlos. But
she knew that she had still much to do:
that great caution need still be exercised
IN the matter; that some one might have
watched them from the river, or that
suspicion might still fall upon Abiiah
Fem.
Then, too, after the ordeal he had
passed through a serious illness might
be before her husband. He had recog-
nlzed her and had pressed her hand, but
his mind was not quite clear. What
was to come she knew not.
Meanwhile Genie slept heavily; she
was more exhausted than her friend.
Bellies frame was strong and her arms
powerful, and still the effort of lifting
the inanimate form of Carlos had taxed
ler powers to the utmost. Genie felt
That 1t was by a miracle that she per-
formed her part. Every bone ached; her
overstrained muscles were sore to the
ouch; in fact, the little doctor had al
most killed herself, and no one knew it
better than Isabelle.

THE HARVEST MOON.

The full moon of the 18th of
the present month is the most
beautiful moon of all the year, for it
is the we'll known and much admired
harvest moon. 1t obtains this distinc-
ton because it is the full moon near
est the autumnal equinox, the equinox
occurring on the 22d and the full moon
on the 18th for days previous, the
moon under these conditions, being in
Aries, makes a small angle with the
horizon, and rises for several nights
with small average variation in the
time of her appearance.
The average difference this year is
about 80 minutes. 1t is sometimes as
small as % minutes, and still smaller
in high northern ATTITUDES, when the
moon being in Aries, falls near the
autumnal equinox, and is at the same
time very far north. Her orbit in Nor
way and Sweden, for instance, may
coincide with the horizon, and she
will seem to rise at precisely the same
time for several successive evenings.
The ancient husbandmen explained
the phenomenon as a divine interposi-
ton to help them to gather in the
fruits of the earth, the continued early
rising of the moon prolonging the day
for this special purpose. The new as
tronomy explains it as the result of
the action of the same physical law
that rules in harmony every move
ment, simple or complex, in the solar
system. Modern science has made
many discoveries unknown to the an
clients, though it has lost the simple
faith of the men of old who lived near
to nature, while it shows plainly that
the phenomenon requires no special
providence in its production. 1t pays
tribute to the sacred associations of
the past, by continuing to call the full
rounded orb that glorifies September
nights-the harvest moon!
