En- 6coutant cette derni6re par
tie du recit de Nabruzzi. en- appre-
nent comment IL s'6tait veng6 de
de ga femme adult4re, Leon de

femme pour la meme cause, Leon
de prangins lie mari tromp6, 3 qni
toute vengeance paraissait bonnie
dams ga cause personnel]e, quel
ques instants a%uparavant. Leon de
Prangins 1essentit un movement
d'horreur contre Get autre mari
tromp6 ct contre 50 vengeance.
FL la trouva f6roca.
Tant de o.lme ct de dissimula-
ton lie r6volterent.
II lu1 sembla qua moins d'etre

de Sc montrer impitoyable; quill y
a quelqde chose d'odieux dams GO
droit que s'arrogel 'homme en- face
de la femme, de porter contre ellie
IN ipgement sanglant ct sans ap-
pei, dams une cause Oh l'on est
tout q Ia fois JUICE ct partie.
La femme qul trompe, la femme
qui ment, peut y 6tfe contrainte
par les circumstances.
Alors, c'est phomme ct Ia soci6-
t6 quill q faite qui sont coupablas.
Ellie peut tromper ct mentir
supplement aussl parce que c'est
dams SO nature deere per6de, ct
que celia la console de ga faiblesse
de Sc louer des chafnes qu'on lui
impose.
Ellie peut atre v6nale, ellie peut
avoir une anne ct IN temperament
de file.
Et alors, ellie ne dot plus rele-
YER que du d6dain ct du m6pris.
La haine est trop haute pour
une creature fate de faDge ct
d'impulssance: impulssance d'ai-
mer.
ST ellie a pinstinct du NAL, ellie
est un animal.
On ne punt pas l'animal, ct on
ne le halt pas.
MATS, 81 ellie a 6cout6 son coeur
quel est le saint qui oseral la juger,
ia condamner? Ouel est celul qui
osera lui dire; tn devais 6ter
nellement renoncer le bonheur!
Leon de Prangins ne s'egarait
pas dane ces raisonnements philo-
sophiques.
II Sc contentait d'6prouver une
sensation.
III lui ar1ivait ce quill nous ar
rive q tout tant que nous sommes.
C'est quill nous sufft de voir
nos propres actions ct nos propres
sentiments chez autrui, pour les
blamer ct protester an nom de Ia

L'avocat Sc tut, n6anmoins.
Plus il entendalt Nabruzzi, plus

How It Feels to Have a Bug i'm Ones Ear.

How 1t Feels to Have a Bug in Ones Ear.
"A bug in his ear" is figure very ex-
tensively used in common conversation.
But, reader, did you ever have bug in
your ear in fact? If not, you have no
idea how it feels. b. +. Tomlinson, who
experienced the sensation, says he never
suffered such torture in his life. The
bug crawled into his ear while he was
lying in bed asleep, between II and 10
o'clock one night. 1t was only COM
mon candlebug or fly, but the degree of
torture one of them can inflict while in
the ear is beyond the scope of the imagi-
nation. Mr.. Tomlinson said that when
he awoke he dreamed that a railway
train had jumped the track, struck him
in the ear and was blowing its way
through his head. The train kept going,
but It seemed that it would never get
through.
Occasionally it would stop and then
start again with renewed force. Then
again the train seemed to be at q stand
still, but the wheels would be turning
with lightning rapidity. The train
would move off gradually with grating
noise, and would not stop till the whistle
blew for the next station or it ran off the
track or collided with another train,
which frequently occurred. Mr.. Tom
linson stood the torture till daylight,
when he sent for doctor, who succeeded
in fishing out the bug, which in the
meantime had died. Mr.. Tomlinson
said that III the bug had remained in his
ear an hour longer he would have been
a raving maniac. (Mo.) Intelli-
gencer.

The crusade which began some months
ago against the habit Of Americans ''sit-
ting on their spines" has suddenly start
ed up again. The lackadaisical, round
shouldered and slanting carriage of New
Workers is noticeable in nearly all public
places. have often observed. in glanc-
ing over the people in the big restau-
rants, that the diners lounged in their
chairs almost without exception. The
man who sat erect in q sensible fashion
was a great rarity. All along Broad
way loungers in hotels are sprawled
over their seats in a similar way, and
nothing is more common than to see o
man slide down In his seat in the thea
ter until his knees are wedged against
the chair in front Of him and his neck
rests upon the back Of his own chair.
In railroad trains there is a similar ex-
hibition Of lackadaisical, sprawling,
lounging and half recumbent men. !
have notion that all of this is due to a
certain extent to ignorance.
Men who have long journeys to go
through should try the effect of sitting
upright in the corner of seat one day
and sprawl all over the seat the next.
They will find that the percentage Of
fatigue is UNNECESSARILY smaller when
sitting squarely in tho seat than when
trying to cover it in recumbent posi-
ton. So it is in the street car, the cab
and the elevated trains. The principal
advantage of the erect posture is that
when person sits in this way, without
leaning against the back of the seat, the
jar of the car is 80 distributed that it
never reaches the head. There is much
more comfort to be had in sitting erect
than in lounging. - Blakeley Hall in
Brooklyn Eagle.

A Door I'm an Old Church

Now and then a small door may be
seen high up in the piers that divide the
nave from the chancel. This is the door
that once gave access from the winding
stair within the pier to the footway on
the top of the screen with which most
churches were once provided. When
screens were found inconvenient and
were removed, these doors were left.

Arthur c. Everett
Santa Barbara, Cal, Dec. 1S.
| write of the Oiai Valley, which from
the earliest period of California has
been held, even by the ancient CaStil-
ians, rs place renowned for the cura-
tive properties of its genial climate and
balmy air, if not Il fountain OF perpetual
youth and health
This valley lacks the presence of the
resious pines of Florida, yet in their
stead are maiectic oaks, offering quiet
resting place for the tired invalid, and
that, too, where not Il vestige of Florid-
ian malaria is found to undo all that
has been accomplished before towards
restoration to health. Here is a charm
of scenery perhaps unequaled in all the
world. Nesting within the embrace of
lofty mountains, ut an elevation of 200
feet, it is literally surrounded, and thus
the valley is one vast mountain pocket.
These mountains shelter IL from harsh
winds and are a complete protection
from the fogs that come in from
the sea.
Until April, 1875, this valley could
only be reached by stage from Ventura,
city on the Southern Pacific railroad
fifteen miles south. On either side of
the route are plpanJlc nils ana DrOau,
rolling plains, dotted, in fact almost
covered, with the large outrageous live
oak, whose perennial foliage furnishes
man and beast shelter from the sum-
mer son or winter rain.
In April, 1875, steps were taken to-
wards opening the Casistas Pass, which
was soon after successfully accomplish
ed, thus giving the tourist and health
seeker another way TO reach this won
derful "nest." From Santa Barbara,
where this route commences, the road
passes through the Carpenteria valley,
thence To an opening in the coast
range. As one proceeds over the CASTS
tas road from Carpenteria, the sea is
lost to view and the way becomes mar
rowed by high cliffs covered with a net
work of vines, ferns and trees. Along
the bottom of the ravine flows tenn
pestuous stream, forming many deep
pools and silvery falls, and on either
side Of it is thick layer of ferns, inter
twined with vines and lighted by sun
beams falling through the overhanging
oaks. BY degrees the road grows more
steep and i'm time the valley lies far be-
low, and is seen winding of among the
