A ROYAL Wardrobe.

The Dauphine was allowed sum Of
10000 livres for her dress alone; but
she never interfered in any way, and
everything was decided, without con.
sulting her, by the dame d'atour, who
ordered what was necessary according
to her own appreciation and settled the
bills of the tradesmen. At the end of
the year she presented incomprehensi-
BILE accounts, which the Dauphire was
required to approve, with the result
that her expenses greatly exceeded the
allotted sum, through no faul: of hers.
Mercy was called to the rescue and dis
covered the most absurd extravaganza.
For instance, three ellis of ribbon. to tic
the powdering gown of the Dauphine,
were put down daily; also several ellis
CT silk daily to cover the basket in
which her gloves and fan were depos-
tied, with many other items Of the
same kind, noted by Mercy in solemn
Reproduction. With all this waste, the
arrangements about her were strangely
deficient in comfort-Anna L. Dicknell

"You are young, you have genius, you
have many friends who expect great things

He turned an earnest look upon her. and
she permitted her long curling lashes to
brush her cheeks.
"Need l tell you why?" he asked, in
trembling tones.
She did not answer.
eff had been permitted to know-some
one, before it was too late," he went on,
"life could have held no drcary moments

He hesitated. She arose and smiled sadly

"Well, JIM" says he, "just see the

Before supper was eaten we buried
old Tom in the sand, and stood round
him for awhile bareheaded in the
breeze. A good deal of firewood had
been got in, but not enough for the cap
tain's fancy, and he shook his head over
it, and told us we must get back to this
tomorrow rather livelier." Then, when
we had eaten our pork, and each had a
good stiff glass of brandy grog, the
three chiefs got together in corner
to discuss our prospects.
It appears they were at their wits
end what to do, the stores being SO low
that we must have been starved into
surrender long before help came. But
our best hope, it was decided, was to
kill off the buccaneers until they either
hauled down their flag or ran away
with the "Hispaniola." From nineteen
they were already reduced to fifteen,
two others were wounded, and one, at
least-the man shot beside the gun
severely wounded, if he were not dead.
Every time we had a crack at them we
were to take it, saving our own lives
with the EXTREMIST care. And besides
that we had two able allies, rum and
the climate.
AS for the first, though we were about
half mile away, we could hear them
roaring and singing late into the night:
and as for the second, the doctor staked
Iis wig that, camped where they were
in the marsh, and unprovided with rem
cdies, the half of them would be on
their backs before a week.

and when 1 got to sleep, which was not

The rest had long been up, and had
already breakfasted and increased the
pile of firewood by about half as much
again, when I was awakened by a
hustle and the sound of voices.
Flag of truce!" heard some one
say; and then Immediately after, with

Serious results often follow strain,
especially when it affects the back, and
few people are SO liable to strain as those
who, are lifting heavy loads of various
kinds: from day to day; The tesms.er
miliarity with the class of wares he
handles, enables him to entirely gage the
load he lifts SO as not to put an excessive
burden on himself. But with the farmer
it is different. He is lifting loads of such
VARYING weights and under such varying
conditions that he is very liable to lift a
little too much some day, with injurious
results. Many serious affections of the
great organs of the body originate in a
strain. 1t was so in the case of H. R. W.
Bentley, of Towuer.. North Dakota, A
strain resulted in serious trouble with the
liver. How he recovered and was enabled
to feed seventy head Of stock during the
winter, let him tell himself
"About year ago, sustained an injury
in my back and shoulders by lifting a
heavy weight After time, liver trouble
came on, which SO weakened me that I
could scarcely lift my hand to my head.
While in this condition, began the use of

Life and the Liver.

"Success in life depends upon the liver
is the way Chas. Lamb, the poetandpunster,
put it. Medical science has proven, that
nine-tenths of the ailments Of living have
their origin in the liver, and in constipation
caused by its arrangements. Keep the liver
lively and all will be well. Modern science
points out Cascarets as the only perfect,
gentle, positive liver regulator fit to be used
in the delicate human organism. All drug
gists sell Cascarets Zoe, 25c, Soc and we rec.
ommend them most heartily.

Warren, Trumbull Co., Ohio, was among

SILVER'S EMBASSY.

Sure enough, there were two men
just outside the stockade, one of them
waving white cloth; the other, no less
a person than Silver himself, standing
placidly by.
1t was still quite early and the cold
est morning that think 1 ever was
abroad IN; chill that pierced into the
marrow. The sky was bright and cloud
less overhead, and the tops of the trees
shone rosily in the sun. But where Sill

still in shadow, and they waded knee
