bright; because she had been crying all
to herself, filled again with tears. She
edged away into the anteroom and he
followed.
"I meant" she replied sotto voice,
"that when you love her, and she loves
you and when you come out into the
backwoods and have plenty Of oppor-
tubities; and when we are all looking on
from respectful distance, it is perfectly
stupid of you not to offer yourself to
Genevieve, and should have tainted and
died both If / had been in her place.
She showed great self-control not to
have died. You had no business to
stipulate the tree, anyhow, for of course
she would expect everything to be settled
before she got there. Oh, of coiirse,
you think me outrageous to meddle with
you and talk right out as if 1 we're a
novel, without respect of persons and
open secrets, but I'm nobody in par
ticular, you know, and seeing that love
Genevieve, will put my finger into her
affairs if like to. And I'll just add
this-that Pm going to arrange to have
you both driven by the coachman to-
night in the big sleigh while we are
portioned of to little cutters. The
drivers seat is way up"
"But my dear Miss Featherly-
Nellie"
Snow, don't be disrespectful. OF
course l can only ask for an outward
show of respect after telling you to offer
yourself to my dearest friend, whom we
all know you are hoping to win, but that
show of courtesy stipulate for"
"But how can ask Miss Chamberlain
in marriage if l love you4" Balkan
squeezed in desperately.
Nellie sat down on the arm of chair
aud looked up at him aghast, blushing
and. appealing.
"Oh, you can't he in love with me3"
she said, breathlessly.
'I wish you would not be so scornful.
You ought to have known it. Months
ago l was crazy about Genevieve, like
the rest; but only for a week, for then
met you. A man doesn't sit staring
all day at a girl unless he loves her.
While stare at you your utter indiffer.
ence to me is something appalling, but
had hoped to win you in the end.
Then you take me by the throat, yank
me in front of somebody else, with
orders, martial in their haste, and now
cast me into perfect sea of premature
ness for, of course, you'll spurn my un-
heralded revelation. But I'm as obsti-
nate as you are, and love you will, by
Jovel"
Balkan sat down on the other arm
chair, and being trim as marble statue
for dinner, and not having time to brush
his hair again il he tore it little, thrust
his thumbs into his pockets and glared
at the fire.
A feint rustic of heavy silk at his ell
bow made him feel exultant.
Ifshe consents to it, you might pro-
pose to me in the Russian sleigh, then. "
He turned, and heI superb eyes met
his. He caught her hands and studied
her face with blissful care.
81 thought 1 was of no account" she
murmured, all of a tremble; and was
suddenly kissed in way that made her
feel that for the future she had some
one to guard her against all harm, and
give her all the happiness she could wish
for.-New Orleans New Delta.

This has been great season for sport
in the hunting regions of the New Eag-
land States, announces the New York
Sun. One taxidermist in Bangor has re-
ceived fifteen moose heads for mounting
this season, all of them being unusually
large and fine. A fur buyer in Farm
ington who returned a few days ago
from purchasing trip among the trap
pers of Maine, New Hampshire, and YER
mont brought more than a score of bear
skins, a great number of fox skins, in
Guiding very fine gray, thirty beaver,
about as many fisher, a quantity of otter,
sable, coon, and cat skins, five or six
hun ired mink, and as many skunk. He
bought about two thousand muskrat
skins in New Hampshire. The auimals
mad been killed this season.

A Famous Maxlm's Origin.

The famous maxim about two blades
of grass growing where one grew before
has been attributed to many prominent
men, and among others, especially to
Lord Palmerston. 1t really occurs for
the first time in "Gulliver's Travels
"Whoever could make two ears Of corn
OF two blades OF grass grow upon a spot
of ground where only one grew before,
would deserve better of mankind and do
more essential service b his country
than the whole race Of politicians put TO-
gether. New Yark Recorder,

singular Capture Of a Swan.

John Jordan brought a large white
swan to Peudleton the other day, and
tells a queer story rs to how he got it,.
While near his house, on East Birch
Creek, he saw some eagles chasing the
swan in the air above hlm. The unfor-
tunate bird, in its anxiety to escape, flew
directly over thcyoung mans head, and
with quick spring he managed to seize
and bring it down, the disappointed
eagles flying away.-Portland Or

Voices TO Order.

A knowledge of the physiology of the
human larynx has made it possible to
supply artificial voices to persons who
have been deprived of the one nature
gave them, and number of cases exist
where the cavity has been opened, and a
larynx made of suitable material with
rubber membranes has been inserted,
ana become practically useful in speech.

you in an important matter and request
you to attend to it at once. Ny grand

The grain and feed market has developed but
little of special interest during the week. The
market is almost bare on corn. Dealers say 1t is
almost impossible to get any from the East, as
farmers have been unable to market their corn
there owing to bad roads. Choice oats are very
stiff and choice hay in small bales for shipping
is getting scarce The live stock market con.
tinues strong.
In the jobbing trade prices on groceries and
provisions generally remain steady. In the
green fruit aud vegetable market choice applea
have been advancing as the supply grows less.
Cherries are cheaper and the quality of those in
the market has materially improved. Spring
chickens are little cheaper, but the supply is
limited. Butter and eggs remain steady, but
cheese has dropped a little. The hardware trade
IL reported fairly active and prices steady.
