home and the garment that be had in the
top of his trunk and took out first when he
unpacked was this same dress suit, and he
declares TO this day that he would have
gone crazy or committed suicide out in the
west if it had not been for his dress suit.
Did any one ever hear OF a dress suit saving
the reason or the life of man befores
THE PROBABLE FATE OF SOME.
1t will be convenient now to answer the
question which one Of the swells put to the
other in the lightning Of this article, when
he asked the man who is on his twentieth
dress suit what he did with his old ones.
1t is clear that there would be no object In
keeping all or them, as they are 80 rusty
and shining that they would DO available
for no other purpose than that OF being
hung up as mirrors. He gives. them away.
They have thus a very varied and singular
career. Let US suppose he gives an old
dress suit to his waiter; the latter uses 1t for
some years and then sells it to dealer in
old clothes. Here it is none over again, the
polish toned down and the ragged edges
concealed. A countrymau, coming to town
to get a wedding outfit. sees the old
dress suit, and, admiring it, is persuaded to
buy it, and is married in 1t. He in turn
gives it to a relation, who gets married IN
it, and this relation wears it at country
ball, gets thrown out OF his buggy on the
way home and splits the coat from the col
lar to the tai Is that the end Of itl No.
In the spring when the corn is planted and
the crows are hungry the old dress suit Is
hung upon a pole and hat is put above 1t
and it stands in the open field looking most
disreputable, but terror TO the crows.
Aud the swell who has been through nine
teen dress suits, riding along the road. sees
the scarecrow and laughs at it without
having the slightest idea that he is max
ing fun of one Of his own most glorious
Oarmanta

Mrs. Green shook her head. She had not
heard her ather mention any one of that name /;
she did not know any Hawthorne in Salem.
My father was one of the pioneers of the in

ELDER WAYBAcK,
A Curiosity.

On the farm of S. R. T. Jones, about
three-fourths of mile south of Hub
bard and only few rods from the
stage road, is a curiosity which at pres
ent Is attracting considerable attention.
1t has been noticed for the last fifteen
years but never has aroused such in.
terest as in the past few months. On
a space of say 20 feet square, appears
this "What is it?n 1t can be seen best
just after rain, or while the ground
is filed or covered with water. There
are numerous holes, about as large as
common lead or slate pencils, from
which gas or air is constantly escaping
with sound as of meat frying or the
Kissing of water on hot stove or iron;
sometimes the pressure may be strong
er than al Others, but it is there just
the same. The pressure is so great
that if these vents are closed they will
in few minutes send the mud flying
as though miniature blast had ex-
ploded. A large heavy iron pan was
inverted over some Of the strongest
vents, the rim being buried in mud
preventing any escape of gas; man
then sat down on the pan and awaited
results, which were not long in COM
ing, as pan and man were lifted bodily.
The gas or air was forced through lime
water, but no change was noticed.
Was tested by fire hut cannot say it
burned. One popularity of the soil is
that no matter how wet the surround
ing ground may be, this spot plows up
hard and dry. A well close by kesps
up constant kissing and the water
reveals nothing out of common.

business together the changes caused
an arrangement between them. The
girls, too, were not the same to each
other, and Madam Rumor was not
long in narrating the fact that these
were two very unhappy families.
Emma found some consolation ig
cohfding in the tristy old ljncic Nd,
not dreaming that Edna sought the
same source for consolation. "Now
don't you breathe word tell you,
Uncle Ned,h Emma would say, and
Edna would exact the SAINT promise.
1t was only through the fear Of the
law, and believing that the law would
compel him to divulge his secrets, es-
pecially to detective, that Uncle Ned
was induced to make known 10 me the
secrets which be held as sacred, aud
which proved to be the most impor-
tant threads by which Twas able, after
lapse of four years, to unravel tbe-
great complicated mystery which with
be made known in the next chapter.
