the road. As he drew nearer be
recognized the dark, tasteful riding
suit which he had seen Dalton wear sc
often before, And passing from the
clothing his eyes rested upon the face
pale as death, of the unconscious man
Good and bad angels tugged at Har-
rvs soul for one moment in mortal
conflict What call had he to interfere
in his behalf? The sneering fop who
had blighted all his hopes! Let him
stay there and die. But in the next
moment, forgetting all but the welfare
Of his fellow being, he snatched off his
overcoat and raised Dalton's head and
rested it upon it. Then, with frantic
haste, he summoned aid, and all that
skill and care could do was employed
for the sufferers restoration. Harry
hung over him. pale and agonized, the
accusing voice ever ringing in his ears
God forgive mew he cried. ''That
wicked delay"

Now, cannot say whether this state.

Harry was clever enough to under
stand it instantly. All the troubles,
trials and misgivings Of the last few
weeks dispersed like mists before the
sun, and content took the place of

hearts.

Chinese newspapers are Chinese
puzzle. But, as in the press of more
civilized regions, the advertisement
columns are singularly illustrative of
the life Of the people. The way in

the calling of his forefathers is shown

large circulation in the Celestial land
A celebrated dancing master, Hung
Foo-Choo, announces that he is to hold
a religious service, to which he invites
all and ,sundry, in honor of the one
