never come back-was it likely that ne
would? That he-accustomed to be
courted and made much of by every
one, should come humbly to the girl
who had coldly repulsed him and would
not even listen to the great honor that
he would have offered her! Oh! what
a fool. what fool she had been, and
vet how thrice wretched In having
missed the happiness which had been
so Yearly hers.
"How was to know that he-he-
would ever really care for me?. she
cried aloud to the dark water. "What
could there be in me to attract him?
And yet I might have trusted him
might have Known might nave
staked my very life on his truth, on his
honor. Oh, We're Nugent, you wretched,
wretched girl, you have no one to blame
except your own doubling self.
She went in when the bell rang for
luncheon and made pretense OF shar-
ing the meal, although she did not eat
three mouthfuls. =,
"Do try to eat, dear child" said
Mrs. Jock, looking at her with great
eyes uil Va cCil-iOpiO~NA'

attempt to hide her woe.
but you had no breakfast to speak
OF, and no dinner; you haven't been
hungry for week." Mr.. Jock said.
perhaps shall be hungry by dinner
time" We're suggested.
She took book out on to the lawn,
and spent the next two hours watching
Mrs. Jock play tennis with Nita and
frankie, and though she did not know
it Mrs. Jock was keeping a very vigi-
liant eye upon the drive, so that If tel
egram came from Easl Court she should
be ready to pounce upon it without a
moments delay. And then | think out
of sheer WEAKNESS We're Nugent fell
asleep, and only work up to see Mrs.
Jock running towards her with an
orange envelope and a sheet Of pinkish
paper fluttering in her hand.

famous "Leibartz,' DR.. Sweninger.
"The latter" he replied, 81 am only

of an hour after each meal-and each
time not more than half bottle of red,

character. Burgundy and beer, of both
of which l am extremely fond, are strict
ly forbidden to me; so are all the strong
Rhenish and Spanish wines, and even

Cest of The Government Per Capita,

While our population in 1890 was only
sixteen times as great as in 1890, the ex-
penditures of the National Government,
excluding all payments upon the interest
and principal of the public debt, were
more than 13O times as great. In other
words, the population increased from
3,927,214 in 1890 to 62,4S6, $40 in
1890, while the ordinary annual expen-
ditures rose from 81, 919,5 ,572 to the sum
of S261, 637, ,2O3. If we take the year
1910, twenty years after the adoption oi
the Constitution, we find that the popu'
lation was 7,299, ISL, and that the ex'
penditures were S., 81, ,OS2, or 73 cents
per capita. In 1890, eighty years after
ward, the population was less than nine
times as great as it was then, but the or
dinary expenditures were more than 4S
times as great, and amounted to 1913
per capita. From 1880 to 1S4O, includ-
ing the period of the Seminole war, the
population increased S2.67 per cent. and
the expenditures increased so per cent.
from 1910 to 1850, during which time
the war with Mexico was commenced and
prosecuted to a successful termination,
the population increased 35.S7per cent.
and the expenditures increased SO per
cent. 4; but from 1880 to 1890, period
of profound peace, population increased
24.57 per cent. and expenditures in
creased So per cent. The ordinary ex-
penditures for the current fiscal year,
1891, will be at least II per cent. greater
than in 1890, although tie population,
as shown by the recent census, is increas-
ing at a rate Of less than 2i per cent

A River Deserts a Town.

The town of Saratow, in the southeast
Of Russia has just sustained a serious
loss; it has lost river-the River Voiga.
The water of the river has for some time
past been deserting the right arm OF the
stream upon which Saratow is built, and
flowing exclusively in the left arm, which
is about mile and a quarter distant from
the town. The former bed of the stream
is now quite dry, and Is used as road
to convey passengers and goods which
arrive by steamer to the town. 1t has
been decided that it is necessary to con-
meet the town with the left arm of the
stream by bridge, the construction Of
which will cost about $3.50, ,0OO.-Yan-
kse Blade.

On neighboring peaks are fed from
eprings by means of the windmill and the
steam engine. A third Just below the
summit acts as reserve in the summer
droughts, and is filled with rain water.
The frequent slight earthquakes that
occur in California seriously injure the
walls, so that a daily inspection has to
be made, and the sfgl&est leak stopped

All these difficulties, of course, call
for extra work on the part the astrono-
mers, for their regular routine duty that
has been assigned them must be done
every day. Each piece of extra work is
written on a card and assigned to some
person. When the work is accomplished
the card is returned. During the last
year 2000 of these cards were made out,
including about 5000 to 1000 items, or
corresponding to 5000 hours of extra Ia
Dor. The Secretary's letterpress copy

For His Own Coffin.

George w. Piper, of sebewa, Mich,
formerly a merchant, is dying of con-
sumption, and has developed a queer
mania for economy. He is man Of con-
siderable means, and is sane on all other
points but that Of his own funeral. A
week ago he took a laborer with him in
to a swampy piece of woodland and cut
down lot of red cedars. He had the
logs sawed into boards and took the
boards to the best cabinet maker and sur
prised that workman by ordering him to
build a coffin to measure. He said no
did not propose to have the undertskers
make anything out Of his dying, and he
made contract with the village express
man to carry that box TO the grave. Mr..
Piper watches that cabinet-maker at
work and sees to it that the job is not
slighted. lie is growing weaker every
day, and cannot totter to the workshop
to superiutend the job more than once
or twice more. : Cheap Tribune.
