ROMANCE OF A NUN.
Her Northern Lover Shot as Spy by Ell
Southern Rival.


Southern Rival.
''One day 1 was strolling through the
orange fields of a place on the gulf Of
Mexico" said NJ. p. Corcoran of New Or
leans, "with Father Bally when we sud
denly approached the figure of nun. She
was tall and shapely, and though her face
was perfectly white her beauty was such
that paused involuntarily and exclaim-
cd, There is a picture for an artist
''Father Bally returned dryly that hers
was not physical beauty, but beauty of
the soul. / replied that 1 could well be-
lieve that, having looked for moment
into her dark, soulful eyes. 1 saw her fire.
quently thereafter and had no difficulty
in learning of her past, for every ono SEEM
ed to be acquainted with her romantic ca
reer.
Before the war she was the only daugh-
ter of an extremely wealthy planter and
lived in one of the large, handsome home
steads which then were SO often seen in
the land of Dixie She had been educated
in Paris and had acquired all tho graces
which are supposed to accompany per-
feet education in the fine arts. AS she was
an heiress she had many admirers, ono Of
whom was southorner, while another
plished girl in Paris. There was hot
race for her hand, but her heart evidently
inclined to the latter sutton, who was
graceful and talented and altogether a
worthy young fellow. The southerner
witnessed his rivals success with much
chagrin and when the announcement Of
the engagement was made he was heard to
remark that he would kill his hated rival
at the altar. However, the wedding bells
did not ring, for war troubles were immi
nent. The lovers took sorrowful fare
we'll, vowing to be loyal to each other,
though he perforce was going TO join tho
ranks of the enemy of the south and as
sist in putting down the Confoderacy
"The denouement to the story was sad
and startling One day man, worn out
and travel stained, sought refuge at the
house and was admitted into the young
woman's presence She gave a cry of rap
ture, for 1t was her northern lover, and
then exclaimed with CONSERVATION,
"'How did you get heres'
by crossing the line
"'But If you are found hero they will
kill YOU
II could not resist seeing you.
"Then, in an agitated manner, she in
formed him that detachment of south
ern soldiers was encamped beyond the
small wood and that the officer in COM
mand was his former rival.
''At this moment the door was burst
open, and number of soldiers entered the
room.
"'Ah, here is the spyp said voice. 1t
was the southern rival.
"The young woman threw herself before
the southerner.
"'You know he is no spyp she ex-
claimed
"'Well, he will be shot as one
"'Have you no mercyp'
"What mercy have you had for me'
He shall die like a dogl'
"'See, she implored. L beg on my
knees. Could you not withdraw your
men or so arrange it that he may RETURN
"'Possibly could.
"'And you will?'
"'On one condition.

she bent over her and whispered in her
ear.
"'NeverI' she exclaimed.

GRAMMAR WITH A VENGEANCE.

johnson once made bet with Bos-
we'll that he could go into q fish
market and put Billingsgate woman
in q passion without saying word
that she could understand. The
doctor commenced by silently indi-
eating with his nose that her fish
had passed the state in which mans
clfactories could endure their flavor.
The Billingsgate woman made YER
bal attack. common in vulgar par
lance, which impugned the classifi-
cation in natural history of the doc
tors mother. The doctor answered,
"You are an article madam mo
more an article than yourself, you
by misbegotten william" you
are noun, womaD." "You--you,"
-stammered the woman, choking
with rage at list of titles she could
not understand. "You are verb
an adverb-an adjective-a conjunc.
aproposition--an interiection!"
suddenly continued the doctor, ap-
plying the harmless epithets at
proper intervals. The nine parts of
speech completely conquered the old
woman, and she dumped herselfdown
in the mud, crying with rage at being
thus "blaekguarded" in set of IN
known terms, which, not understand
ing, she was unable to answer.

"Going into a decline" How often
do we hear this expression. What
does it mean? 1t means that peo-
pie are losing flesh, growing thin,
wasting.
The way to correct this condition
is to improve the digestion. The
condition arises from an inability to
eat and digest food. In fact food
does more harm than good because
it ferments and putrefies in the
stomach, developing poisonous SUBJ
stances which when absorbed cause
various disorders.
What is required is that the
stomach be made to perform its
duties. The Shaker Digestive Cor
dial is food already digested and a
digester of foods as we'll 1t will
make the stomach healthy. Get a
book from the druggist and read
about it.

TREATMENT OF AN ORcHARD.-The
treatment of an orchard is subject
of Importance and should be we'll
studied. If the land is so wet that
it needs drainage it is not fit for use
on this account. The land must
then be drained, or the trees will not
thrive. The roots will run into the
drains and choke them, making
double mischief, for the land will
soon be as wet as before and the
labor and money will be lost.
Clay land is not the best for an or
chard lightisb, gravelly land is
better, and still more so if it is lime
stone. 1t would be better to set the
orchard far from the house in lighter
land than in clay because of its near
ness. If the land is clay, but not
wet, it may be improved by subsoil-
ing it; that is, by blowing in the fur
row of a common pillow and immedi-
ately after it with bar plow-that
lie, one with long bar like coulter
that will break the subsoil and loos-
en- it. This might be done in strip
between the rows and about six feet
wide, but near the trees the land
should be plowed no deeper than
few inches, lest the small roots be
checked in growth. 1t is a good thing
for an orchard to be sown with Glow
err and pastured by swine or sheep.

This illustrious scholar, compelled

arch was eouched in terms of great
elegance and pathos. s'Look not

countenance upon the humble adj
vances of a man whose SOULS devoted
to your service, one, who, a beggar,
vagrant, and an exile, has endured
every species of misfortune which a
per6dious world can inflict. A
savage host of inveterate enemies
pursue him, and the palace of his
sovereign resounds with their men

altar of Mercy, and, exhausted by
calamities, cast myself at your feet. :"
Alas London was not the Athens
the fugitive sought, nor Henry the
Periculous, whose generosity was to
succor him. But who can wonder
that, after sacrificing to the axe that
beauty on which he once reposed
with delight, neither the m;sfortunes
of greatness, nor the Sequence OF
genius, should have been able to
make the least impression on the
heart of the savage Henry.
