CHAPTER XVIII.

The wonder and mercy were that he did
not fall dead in that moment. He sprang
from his seat with a cry of terror on his
lips; and there, standing under the lines,
with the sunlight on her hair and dress,
was Violante, his loved, lost wife. Was
1t Violante, or was it the restless spirit Of
the girl he had loved?
'Vivian, do not be frightened. May L
come to your
He stood rooted to the spot. Had 1t
been to save his life he could not have ut
tered one word. Remember, he believed
he had seen her buried-and-she stood
therel
MAY l come to you?" she repeated.
"Say only one word"
But that one word he could not utter;
he opened his arms, and the next moment
she was kneeling, clasplng his knees with
passionate tears, with passionate cries,
with passionate prayers for pardon. He
could not realize it-could not understand
1t. He was like a man stricken blind, deaf
and dumb. He only felt the clinging
touch of the white hands-he only saw
the golden head bowed in deepest humil-
ity at his feet.
Then he recovered himself; he bent over
her, he raised her from the ground, he took
her white hands In his.
"Violanter' he cried, looking at her. '1n
the name of heaven, what does this mean
isis it you? Speak to me. Have you
risen from the dead or did you not die 2"
She stretched out her hands imploringly
to him.
"Will you even forgive me, Vivian?"
she asked; will You forgive me, if | tell
you all the truthY
His half-formed superstitious fancy died
away. He put her at some little distance
from him and looked earnestly at her.
"Violante!' he cried. "Have you been

lei must have led to our custom of
taking apple sauce with roast pork,
rich goose and like dishes.
A good, ripe, raw apple is one of the
easiest Of vegetable substances for the
stomach to deal with, the whole process
of its digestion being completed ip
eighty-five minutes. =
In the Hotel DIES Invalides Of Paris
an apple poultice is used commonly for

and its pulp applied oyer the eyes with.

Fruits were given us before drugs,
and they were all given some medicinal
virtues. Prunes, apples, pears, figs,
peaches, are all aperient, and how much
better it Is to keep the liver and bowels
free from clogglng by pleasant fruit
laxatives than by resorting every few
days to drastic saline purgatlves, or to

other members of the community; nor,
so far as we are aware, did any serious
calamity fall upon their daring imita-
tors In London.
1t is idle to imagine hat an inveter-
ate superstition can be got rid of by
such merely theatrical bravado as this.
The case stands with 1t as 1t does with
a similar Idea about the folly of under
taking any serious enterprise on Fri
day. There are whole classes of man
kind to whom these notions form a sort
of unWritten creed. Every one knows
that a sailor does not like have his
ship to be commissioned on a Friday.
Indeed, one of the explanations given of
the disaster which befen the Thrasher
torpedo boat was that 1t had unluckily
commenced its cruise on the penuIti-
mate day of the week. Soldiers. though
not quite so superstitious as sailors. are
by no means free from similar preiu-
dices, and gamblers who live the life
of the nerves believe in luck with oh.
stlnate tenacity. The theatrical profes.
sion, again, has its fixed beliefs.-Lon.

Farm Notes..

The hens of America last year packed
inside the shells of the eggs in roun
numbers, $50 tons of water. This Is
enough to fill a canal one mile long,
20 feet deep and 800 feet wide. The
shells required to hold this water con-
tanned 10, 900 tom of lime, An acre Of
corn requires about 800 tons Of water
during the growing season to produce
a full crop. The hens of the country
last year put enough water n their
eggs to irrigate owe 1000 acres Of
corn.
There are many different kinds of
weeds and some of them start off early
in the spring, almost before the frost
leaves the ground. 1t is the early
weeds that give the farmer the most
trouble. If the lane was plowed last
fall cross pillow it the coming spring,
and then harrow or cultivate it as
often as can be don until time to put
in the seed. Every time the LAM is
cultivated more weeds will terminate
to be killed and more weeds hat can
be destroyed before the regular crop
starts the fewer there will be to COM
bat later on.

A Hare Com.

While engaged in digging under his
farm house, near South Windsor, n. Y,
a few days ago George Buell. found a
curious copper coin. The diverse side
of the coin has upon 1t a sun and q sun
dial, the date of coinage, 1877, and the
inscription, mind your own business"
The reverse side has thirteen links
about the margin and an inscription In
the center, Omitted States, one cent"
The coin is known is a Franklin cent"
and Is the first coin authorized by the
United States. 1t is rare and valuable,
being quoted at from $25 to S1OO.

Bicycle.

The re-opening of the Ambrose Park
track at Brooklyn is talked OF. 1t is
said that MesSrs. Salisbury and Am
brose, owners of the property, have
decided to settle the obligations against
the track and prepare the place for a
renewal of racing next season.
There is some talk in Providence of
an indoor track and a week of cycle
races to be pulled off about the time
of the National Assembly. AS the
races will be under N. C. A. sanction
the League magnates will not be asked
to officiate, although they may attend
if they have the price.
A receiver has been appointed for
the Cincinnati Bicycle Club, the Oldest
L. A. w. organization in the State of
Ohio. The embarrassment is only
temporary, however, and re-organiza-
ton will take place within a short
time.
Jack Robertson, the Englishman
who raced with success in America
last spring, has retired from the path
to take up the practice of law. In
England Robertson has had a most

CHAPTER XVII.

1t was not until the first bewilderment
Of his sorrow passed away that Lord Wv
ian Selwyn thought of asking how 1t hap
pened. No one could tell him. The lady's
maid told him all that Lady Beatrice had
said, and he could not understand why
his wife had been so determined upon WIS.,
iting Redruth-what could have induced
her to brave his %oya and anger, to
disobey his commands, to disregard his
wishes? There must be some reason why,
but he never discovered it. The secret of
that journey, for which she had been will
ing to risk her life, persisted with her.
Deepest gloom seemed that day to have
fallen on Selwyn Castle. Every one was
stunned and bewildered. BY the doctors
advice all knowledge of the accident was
carefully concealed from Rupert. What
ever Lord Selwyn thought or felt, he was
obliged, in his sons presence, to carefully
conceal all emotion.
That same day his lordship visited the
groom's cottage. The man left a wife and
three little children to lament his loss.
Lord Vivian did all he could for the
woman. He gave her the cottage, and
settled upon her a pension that would for
ever keep grim want from her door.

O matter of course, accidental DEATH"
On Mrs. Rivers the sad, sudden death
produced a strange effect. 1t gave her
time for thought. She had dreaded the
revelation Of her secret, she had dreaded
the terrible scene that must have ensued
when 1t became known; and now it was
once more her own. She deplored Bea-
trlce's sad death more, perhaps, than any
one, for she alone knew the secret of The
terrible crime the dead woman had plan
ned. She mourned not only for the lost
life, but for the sin-laden soul SO swiftly,
so suddenly summoned before its Judge.
She was miserably undecided what to
do There were times when it seemed to
her the only atonement she could make
for her error was to confess her fault to
her husband, to tell him every motive
which had actuated her and let him pun
ish her as he would. That idea would
take possession of her until she was near
Iy throwing herself at his feet and telling
him all.
Then came the reaction. The same mo-
tiyes that had led her to make the sacri-
fee existed still. They were rather deep
ened by the thought of how her son would
listen to such a story and how it would
affect him.
She resolved at last upon ke9fing silent

Debo, "a prosperous farmer OF this

calves. and although each would be

nape of tho neck and shake IL Wig

top of his voice the mule did not let
go until he had nearly reached the
scene. and then the vicious animal
gave the calf a swing that landed II
