Lady Waterford.

More than fifty years ago Lady
Louisa Stuart was one or England'S
beauties; yet she was the least self
conscious maiden ever seen, and 1T IS
even said that one evening she ex-
claimed, in going UP a staircase to a
ball: Mamma, do look at that girl
with the handsome profile" Her
mother saw, with amusement, that
she had not recognized her own re-
feCtiOn in the mirror.
Very early in her career Of con-
quests a young nobleman, known as
1.-The wild Lord Waterford" was de-
voted to her. He had become ce!e-
brated far and near for his strange
exploits, not one of which was I'M
worthy ChivalrOuS gentleman, and
everybody wondered what he, devoted
to hunting and sport, could have in
common with the spintuelle, art-lOv-
ing daughter Of Lord Stuart de ROthe-
say. Even Lady Stuart, the mother,
saw but one answer to be made him,
and one day said TO her daughter:
Il have had the most extraordi-
nary proposal for you from Lord
Waterford, / must lose no time in
writing a refusal"
"Oh, but" hesitated the daugh-
ter wait little, l should like
to think about it first"
They were married, and a long life
Of happiness and tranquility followed.
Lord Waterford gave up his esCa-
pades, and seemed to live only in his
wife, and was always happiest in fol-
lowing the pursuits she loved. She
devoted herself to the peasantry of
their little village. and quite changed
its condition to one OF prosperity and
cOntentment.
With one Of her husbands
old pursuits, his hunting, she
had the greatest sympathy, and
never complained of the dull
weeks spent with him at Rockwell.
where he kept his horses and hounds.
Sometimes he did not return from his
excursions tell 10 o'clock at night.
Then he slept for two hours, and at
midnight dinner his wife was alwa' S
smiling and ga,
He had been made a different man
by her devotion, and no one ever
heard the beauty, who might have
lead the gayest possible life in the
fashionable world, express a W sh for
am other career than that Of serving
her husband and his people. She was
always known among the latter as
''Our lady" and when she died their
grief was almost uncomfortable.

Tell me the truth; did you really come

CHAPTER VII.
INTERCHANGE OF CTvILITIES.

All night long, without intermissiOn.
the heavy tropical rain descended in
torrents; at sunrise it ceased, and a
bright blue vault of sky stood in a
spotless dome over the island of
BOuIari
As soon as the sun was well risen,
ana the rain had ceased, one shy native
girl after another came struggling up
timidly to the white line that marked
the taboo round Felix and Muricl's
hutS. They came with more baskets
of fruit and eggs. Humbly saluting
three times as they drew near, they
laid down their gifts modestly just out
side the line, with many loud ejacula-
tions OF praise and gratitude to the gods
in their own language.
what do they say" Muriel asked
in dazed aud frightened way, looking
on: of the hut door, and turning in
wonder TO Mali.
They say, Thank you, Queenie, for
rain and fruits. Mali answered, I'M
concerned, bustling about in the hut.
missy want to wash him face and hands
this morning? Lady ALWAYS wash every
day over yOnder in Queensland.
Muriel nodded assent. 1t was all so
strange to her. But Mali went to the
door and beckoned carelessly to one Of
the native girls Just outside, who drew
near the line at the summons, with a
somewhat frightened air. putting one
finger 10 her mouth in cOyly uncertain
savage fashion.
Fetch me water from the spring.
Mali SAID authoritatively, in Polynesian
Without a moments delay the girl
dartcd of at the top of her speed. and
soon returned with a large calabash
full Of fresh cool water, which she lay
down respectfully by the taboo line,
not daring to cross H.

Muriel asked of her Shadow. rather
relieved than otherwise that Mali
hadn't left her. 1t was something in
these dire straits 10 have somebody al
ways near who could at least speak a
little English.
Mali started back in surprise. "Oh.
that would never do" she answered,

often heard before in Queensland

After breakfast, Felix came in to in
quire how she had passed the night in
her new quarters. Already Murial
felt how odd was the contrast between
the quiet pOliteness OF his manner "a

Rats that Get Tipsy.

"Rats are crafty beggars," said a
wholesale dealer in California wines the
other day as he sat in his office and
looked at an empty trap into which the
tempting bit of cheese had not lured
victim.
"You would think that even the most
fly of New York rats would forget itself
and 90 into a trap when it had a jag on,
but I'll be hanged if the rats around
these premises do, and they are about
as hard drinking a lot as you'll find
anywhere What do they drink? Well,
claret mostly, and they get genuinely
groggy, too, but it is only once in a
while that one SO far fOrgets its rules of
safety as to get into the traps We
set. Now that trap was in the
storeroom last night, and so were the
rats, and they are Il very hungry lot, but,
you see, it isn't sprung. They will nib
bic place in a Cask of Claret lust thin
enough to let it soak through the wood,
and then lick the drops as they oOZe
through, but there they stop, and very
seldom lose cask by having it tapped
hard enough to run out. The same
thing happens on the ships in which the
wine comes around the Horn from Cali
fOrnia, and the rats on these vessels live
life of such riotOus dissipation that
they can never be reformed. I'm going
to try and tempt few into our traps by
soaking the cheese ia brandy, and be-
ieve it will prove too much for them, or
at least for the old fellows who have
grown to regard claret and the white
wine as mere matter-Of-faCt beverages.

SURPRISING FIGURES.
The Extent of Advertising Done by the
Lydia +. Pinkham Medicine Company.

Lydia f. Pinkham Medicine Company.
Some idea ofthe importance of the Lydia
Z. Pinkham Medicine Company, as a Lynn
enterprise, may be estimated by the amount
of advertising which is placed by them in
the leading newspapers of America. Adj
yertising is in their line one of the surest
gauges by which to judge the extent OF their
business.
The newspaper advertising of this famous
concern is all placed through the advertis
ing agency of Pettingill & Co., Boston, and
the writer recently learned while in their
offices that eight tons of electr otypeS were
shipped by them to the newspapers in one
day, all OF which were advertisements OF
the Lydia j.. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound.
Some idea Of the extent Of such advertis-
ing can be formed when one considers the
fact that a tiye-inch electrOtype weighs but
few ounces, and that eight tons consists
OF 1861 ounces, or an amount sufficient
TO furnish all the leading publications OF
America with more than five electrotypeS

Photographing in Colors.

Considerable attention is being paid
in Paris to the new method originated
by member of the National Academy
of France for photographing in colors,
the process being pronounced, from
scientific point of view, the most inter
esung ever invented in this line.
Briefly, the operator LAYS upon a sheet
of glass a very delicate, translucent film
of chloride of silver, and against this
film is placed vessel containing mer-
curry, so that the latter is in contact with
the film. Thus arranged, the glass
sheet and mercury are placed in the
camera like an ordinary sensitive plate,
and, exposures being made, the image
Of the object to be photogra pied, pro-
iected upon the glass, the light covering
the image passes through the glass, on
through the translucent film, and is re-
tlected pack by the mercury behind.
The action Of the light splits the silver
in the film into thin layers, which
breaks up the Light rays into their com
ponent colors. As the play of colors in
an opal Is due to that gem being com
posed Of layers of quartz superposed one
upon another-these layers breaking Up
the light into different hues a similar
result follows the placing of the layers of
silver in the film, which, through the
operation of a curious law, reproduces
the tints of the object photographed.
