The Midmays were satisfied with the
gondola, and with Antonio's recommended
tions for they could not read italian hand
writing, and when Antonio informed them
that the notary'5 letter was a certificate that
he was the most honest man in Venice, and
that it hal been given him by German
Prince whom he had served 10 years, they
were not in position to contradict the as
sertion. Moreover, they were already half
in love with the handsome and happy face
of their gondoler, and would have taken him
without any recommendation at all, sooner
than have taken an old and ugly gondolier
with the recommendation of the British
Consul and the resident Chaplain. The next
day Antonio entered upon his duties, and
began the joyous task of making hay while
the sun of the Englishman shone on him. Is

mays to lay in their entire stock of firewood
In September instead of waiting until the
price should be higher, they said to one
another what comfort it was TO have
servant who really locked after their inter
ests. So Antonio was commissioned to buy
the wood, and he bought it. He made
handsome commission on the transaction,
and, in addition, he had about one-fifth of
the whole amount of wood delivered at his
own residence. 1t is true that this was not
quite enough to provide him fuel for the
entire Winter, but the deficiency could easily
be remedied by simply carrying home three
or four sticks under his coat every night,
and Antonio was not man who shrank
from any honest labor when the good of his
family was IN view.
About 10 days after the arrival of his
Englishman, Antonio informed him that
the gondola needed to go to the sguero to
have its bottom cleaned, at a cost of 10 francs.
This, however he insisted upon paying out of
his own pocket, because the fouIness of the
bottom had been incurred before he entered
Mr.. Mildmay's service. This scrupulous

display of honesty still further convinced
the Englishman that he had the pearl of
gondoliers, and when the next day Antonio
asked him TO give him as loan, to be deduct
ed from his future wages, fifty francs, where
with to make certain essential, but wholly
unntelligible repairs to the gOndola, Mr..
Mldmay was of his wife's opinion that it
would be a shame to require the poor man
ever to repay it.
The first thing that shook the Mildmays'
confidence in Antonio was little incident
in connection with a chicken. They had
had pair of roast fowls for dinner and had
eaten only one, intending to have the other
served cold for luncheon the next day. When
late in the evening Mrs. Mildmay accident
ally discovered Antonio in the act of going
out of the house with the cold fowl stuffed
under his coat, she demanded an explana-
ton. 1T Is true, pdrOnG," said Antonio,
" that took the fowl. And why? Because
all the evening 1 had seen you and the paron
sitting together in such love and happiness
that my heart bed for poor Antonio, who
has no happy ireside at which to sit. And
so | said to myself, 'Antonio surely you
deserve a little happiness as we'll as these
good and noble people Take the cold fowl,
and eat it with love and gratitude in your
heart! ,"
Mrs. Mildmay could not scold him after
this defense, and she simply contented her.
self with telling him that he might keep the
fowl for this time, but that such method of
equalizing the benefits of fortune must not
occur again. Antonio promised both her
and himself that it should not and though
he continued to keep his wife's table fully
supplied from that Of the Mildmays, the
latter never again found him in possession of
surreptitiOus chickens.
One day Antonio found a gold piece, 90
francs, in fact, on the floor of his gondola.
He knew it must have been dropped by
the paron, and he promptly brought it to
him. How wrong | was" said Mrs. Mild
may, "to doubt the poor fellow because
of that affair of the chicken. No one would
ever have been the wiser if he had kept
that 20-franc piece, but he brought it to us
like an honest man." For once she was right
in believing Antonio to be honest. Nothing
could have induced him to sully his soul and
hands by unlawfully OBTAINING his masters
money. He was determined to make all the
money out of his providential Englishman
that he could make in ways that every Condo
lier knows to be perfectly legitimate, but he
was no thief, and Mr. Mildmay could fear
lessly have trusted him with all the money in
his purse.

in Venice, but one morning he came to Mr..
Mildmay with face of pathetic sadness,

the mans sorrow and the quiet heroism with
which he bore it. He gave him the days

line at mothers-in-law, and Antonio re-
ceived only his half-hOliday to accompany
the corpse to the cemetery. This miScar-
riage made Antonio think more than ever
of that failure to keep his promise to the
Madonna in the matter of the wax candles,
and he sometimes wondered if she were
capable of carrying her resentment so far as to
take his EDglishman from him.
There is gas in Venice, but the judicious
householder does not use it save when he
desires to enshroud his rooms in twilight
gloom. If he wishes light strong enough
to read by he burns petroleum. 1t was, of
course, Antonio who supplied the petroleum
to the Mildmay household, and equally of
course he bought the poorest quality and
charged for the dearest. Now, IN spite of
ali the care which timid person may lavish
on lamp burning cheap petroleum, it is
nearly certain, sooner or later, to accomplish
its mission of setting somebody or something
on fire, and Antonio's petroleum, which was
rather more explosive than gunpowder, un-
accountably spared the inmates of the casa
Mildmay until late in the month of March,
when it suddenly asserted itself
1t happened in this way. One evening
Mrs. Mildmay took lamp in her hand and
started to cross the wide and slippery floor
she trod moved under her. and she came
near falling In the effort to save herself
she dropped the lamp. 1t broke, and in an
instant she was in blaze.
Antonio was in the ante-room. The door
was open and he saw the accident. He
sprang to Mrs. Mildmay's assistance. He
did not attempt to avoid the 1ames but
rushed directly through the pool of blazing
OIL burning his feet and ankles horribly.
He seized Mrs. Mildmay and tore away her
dress with his bare hands. He had nothing
to wrap around her, for he was wearing no
coat at the time, but he clasped her close in
his arms aud smothered the flames that had
caught her petticoat by pressing her against
his bosom. She escaped with nothing worse
than q slightly-burned finger, but Antenio's
hands, arms, feet and ankles were burned to
the bone. By this time Mr.. Mildmay, who
had been in his study, heard his wife calling
for help and made his appearance.

TRAP FOR skUNKs.
4 Simple Yet Eficacious Device for the
Poultry Yard.

4 Simple Yet EHicacious Device for the
Poultry Yard.
One of our subscribers complains that
the great enemies to his success in
chickens are the skunk and rat He
says that he has suffered SO much from
this source that he writes for some
method of trapping the ''varmints."
The barrel trap may be used for skunks
with success.
The barrel may be used in several
ways for entrapping animals. To catch
the skunk, bore two holes with a gim-
let in the center of the bottom, and
with string tie to the spot a piece Of
meat. Set the barrel at an incline, as
illustrated, so that the animal may get
into it. When the skunk reaches the
bottom, the barrel turns upright and
the game is secured. For entrapping
rats, take barrel head little smaller
than the barrel; across the center OF
the head screw or nail stick half an
inch square. projecting an inch each
side. Round the parts which project,
then cut notches in the top of the bar

SKUNK AND RAT TRAP.

rel for these to fall into, so that the
head wi. be suspended in proper shape,
but touch the slaves nowhere. If it is
not perfect balance, add little
weight to one side to make it so. Tie
cheese to each side, then set an inclined
plank SO that the rats can run up to
the end of it and jump down upon the
balanced head to get the bait OF
course the rat goes into the cavity be
low, and the head swings back into
place for the next.
In addition to the barrel trap before
given, the skunk, when infesting the
neighborhood Of a chicken coop, may be
taken by means of the steel trap. Shut
the coop SO tight that the chickens can
not get out, then set the trap on the
ground six or eight inches in front
The skunk is not suspicious animal
and will blunder into the trap when
prying around for supper. Generally
they will not emit their odor, and if
shot through the spine before modest
ing, may be removed without leaving
their scent--Farmers' Voice.
