The PRINCIPLES Of Jesus.

The principles Of Jesus plainly are
that God is an Infinite Spirit; that He
is infinitely good; that the best quail
ties Of humanity are but hints Of His
excellence; that all souls are His chill
dren; that evil is our most dreadful
foe; that God desires our rescue from it;
and that Christ is the expression OF
that desire, and his holy and I'M
changing love.-T. s. King.

The countess bent her eye to the
little aperture, and plainly discerned
three figures, all alike, so that one
might be readily taken for the other.
They sat down, not two yards from
the tree which sheltered their unsus-
pected watchers.

"Gloriously, comrade! Paris is all

The three laughed coarsely.

Il do not believe in ghosts, Felicle,"
was the dry response.
And still the countess looked around
her anxiously.
Suddenly Felicie, half dead with fear,
seized her arm. She turned hastily,
and behold! some distance down the
path was the same figure retrac-
ing his steps; it seemed like some spec
tire Waterman on his rounds.
Even the stout heart of the countess
was appalled,. But another involun-
tary exclamation from Felicie gave her
renewed courage.
Behold! from the opposite direction
came. another figure, dark cloaked,
spade equipped, likewise attended by
the floating circle of light.
What" thought the countess, "two
ghosts, possibly three, and at this early
hour? Now am certain that this has
a deeper significance than ever"
Mamma, mammal implored Felicie,
what will become Of us?'
1--WE must secrete ourselves some
where. Don't tremble So my precious
one, there is time for us to retreat"
The words died off from her lips as
strange voice suddenly exclaimed:
Trust yourselves with me-there is
not a moment to lose"
From whence did it come, the ground
or the skies? Poor Felicie was beyond
shrieking; her heart stood still, and
she felt cold chill creeping over hel
whole frame.
But the countess, struggling fol
calmness, though her voice shook, an.
swered:
who are you-and where?"
"a friend; one whom you need never
fear to trust. Gomez
AS if by magic, the great tree trunk
against which the countess leaned
yawned, and there stood the dark fig
ure who had so strangely disappeared
Come in hither quickly and you art
safe"
Still, though the other apparition
were rapidly nearing, the countess hes
itated.
"Who are your" repeated she again
He reached forward, and whispered
a name in her ear.
Come, Feliciep exclaimed the lady
and the daughter was strangely thrilled
by the blended relief and sadness of he
voice.
They stepped, both of them, int
what seemed circular closet, and tn
weird, brownie doorway closed afte
them.
Their unseen companion pointed on
several holes in the gnarled trunk
whispering:

The improvements on the Main Line of
the Baltimore and Ohio, west of, and be.
tween Martinsburg, W. Va, aud North.
Mountain, have been completed Novem-
ber lst. They cover distance of nearly
four miles, starting three miles west of Mar
tinsburg, and extending some distance
west OF Myers Hole, which is near the North
Mountain station. At Myers Hole the line
was changed taking out some very OBJ
jectionable curvature, and the roadbed
raised nearly fifteen feet, eliminating two
grades of II feet per mile which came to-
Gether at Myers Hole and substituting there
for an almost level track. This point on the
road has always been dangerous one, and
many freight wrecks have occurred there
Apart from doing away with the dangerous
feature of two sharp down grades coming
together, as was the case in this instance,
the saving in operation of the road by the
change will be very large, as it enables the
tons per train to be greatly increased and
reduces the liability OF accident to the min
imum. At Tablers the road-bed has been
lowered about l3 feet, and the same at
Tabbs, besides taking out Objectionable curv-
ature and reducing the rate of grades at
these points from 42 feet per mile to 10 feet
per mile thus increasing the cars that can
be hauled per train. Though these improve
ments have cost quite sum of money, the
expenditure is fully justified by the great
saving in operation.

Mamie was q beautiful black colt.

And Hardness was noted for his cruelty,

young wife eagerly accepted the invita-

conversation could be carried on dur
