Crowds and columns Of prisoners
were being marched to Versailles. The
prisoners camp at Satory was an
anomalous picture, even shudderful to
contemplate
A man with baleful eyes and snakS
lips approached one of the entrances to
the stable pens. The prompt "Qui
viveT halted him.
Pardon" was the affable, grinning
response, ''but 1 am a quartermaster.
You have here, by a great mistake, .
good cousin of mine who will answer
to the name of Henri Edouin. Be so
good as to summon him to me. am
not so great fool as to ask his release
just now, but would speak with him II

Villainous Giuseppe, ever treacher-
GUS and fearing that Henri might es-
cape to annoy him in the future and
jealous to insanity that the man should
live to whom Hortense was so avowed-
ly attached, had sought the prison
ers' camp with murderous intent In
his bosom he carried pistol, and with
the weapon he was resolved to slay
the rival he hated.
His speech at the gate was inter
rupted by a savage cry.
A bronzed gendarme who was stand
ing near threw aside his musket and,
springing forward, gripped the pseudo
quartermaster by the throat
This wretch liesw he vociferated
excitedly. "He is Giuseppe Of the
commune, Giuseppe the spy, who or
dered 40 Of my comrades shot. alone
escaped l know him wellY'
A fierce struggle ensued.
There were fash, a bang, and the
gendarme dropped dead.
But simultaneously a musket butt
crashed down through the skull Of
Giuseppe. The baleful eyes were dim
med forever.
1t would be difficult to describe the
fearful pleadings of beautiful Hortense
before the gentlemen Of the military
bureau in Rue Satory. She knew and
revealed the trick which had placed
Henri in Giuseppe's power. She told
the story of her hearts sacrifice to save
her lovers life and his unwilling yield
ing to the proposition Of his arch enc
my. 1t was an appeal to touch the
deepest sympathy Of her hearers.
Henri Edouin was forthwith set at
liberty.

A young man about town who thought
he had seen the limit in strange happen

If not wealth, came in and ordered a
drink of - cent whisky, inquiring al the

The Vigorous Way They Have Of
washing Clothes In India.
The following extract is from the letter
Of a young medico in India:

awkward fix. The washer people here
take your best shirt to a stream, dip IT
In the water and then smack it hard on a
bowlder, repeating the process again and
again till a hole is made in the linen.
Then and not before do they regard that
particular article as finished

man that l didn't want holes knocked
into my clothes.

head, so | tried to get somebody else to
do my work. But nobody else would do
1t for me. | discovered that sort OF
tribal trades union exists here. Each
kind of work is done by a particular
caste.
zone caste limits itself to boot clean
ing, and the only scope which another
allows for its genius is carrying. II you
badly treat the man who cleans your
boots or sack him, he reports you to his
tribe, and unless you clean your boots
yourself they will ever remain dirty, for
no other member of that tribe will clean
them for you. nor will anybody else. for
the work is not consistent with the dig
nifty of the carrying, washing or any 9th
er caste.
"There being no help for it, had to

was only by brides and entreaties that !
could get him to forgive me.
"Now, want you to send me two doz-
en- shirts and let them be of the strongest
quality. If he must knock holes in them,
| am determined that he will have to
work hard. 1t is possible that may
have some further trouble with him. for
if the holes take a long time coming he
may complain that he cannot finish my
washing.

quire some sign by which their actions
are to be guided.

CARE oE The EYES.
1t Should Begin With the Moment Of
the Baby's Birth.

1t Should Begin With the Moment 81
the Baby's Birth.
Nowhere is the comparison between an
ounce of prevention and a pound of cure
more applicable than in the care of the
eyes, for the neglect of seemingly trivial
affections, perfectly durable in their be-
ginnings, may lead in an incredibly short
time to permanent impairment Of vision
or even to total blindness.
The care Of the eyes should begin with
the moment of birth. The new baby'i
eyes should be the first part to receive
attention. They should be wiped care
fully with piece of absorbent cotton wet
with a warm solution of boric acid of 8
strength of about 60 grains in foul
ounces of distilled water. After the lids
have been thus carefully washed ON the
outside, they should be gently separated
and some of the solution dropped into
the eyes.
In washing the eyes one should be care
full never to dip again in the solution q
piece of cotton which has once been used
A fresh piece must be taken each time
the eyes are wiped.
The baby's eyes must be protected from
the light. Its crib must be placed where
the eyes are not exposed to the full light
from a window, and the carriage should
have shade raised only about a foot
above the baby's head
Children often suffer from inflammation
of the edges of the lids, which are red
and scaly. and the lashes fall out and
break off This may betoken a general
scrofulous condition, or it may depend
upon some defect in the sight which
causes eye strain, or it may be only a To-
cal trouble. If it is only local trouble,
a few applications of boric acid ointment
at bedtime will generally effect a cure.
Conjunctivitis, or Inflammation Of the
membrane covering the globe of the eye
may be due to a cold, to the action OF
bright sunlight, or reflection from water
or from snow, or to eye strain from some
visual imperfection. Usually the boric
acid solution will give relief here, even
when the trouble cannot be permanently
cured until proper glasses are worn.
Another painful consequence of eye
strain is a succession of sites. When a
child suffers frequently from sites, from
sore lids or from conjunctivitis, the sight
should be tested.
Much harm is often done to the eyes, as
we'll as to the general health, by too long
application to books, either school or story
books. Three hours Of looking at print
by daylight and one hour in the evening
should not be exceeded by any child I'M
der IA, for that is as much as his eyes,
even If their vision is perfectly normal,
will stand without injury.-Youth's Com

The crowd huzzas, the music madly plays;

To see, to touch, may be, the very dress
OF those who dared the death when life is sweet
But stayi Where Joy is general, where the SOUND
OF iubilant voices rends the air around,
Why is yon group so silent in its place,
With wars imprisoned image face to facet
Wherefore those eyes cast nunlike on the groundf

The wives whose dearest lie all uncaressed

Experiment has disclosed the fact
that one-fourth OF a teaspoonful of me-

enough vanilla TO cover the strong cof-

A pinch of salt in coffee has long

that country the coffee is roasted fresh
every morning in covered shovel kept
in constant motion over the fire. A bit
of salted butter added after the roast
ing process is begun gives it an inde-
scribable flavor as delightful as it is
subtle.
The French, too, have made their
reputation for excellent coffee by using
butter while roasting it. a piece of
butter the size of walnut. with u des-
sertspoofful of powdered sugar to
three pounds of green coffee, is the
proportion used. This is said to bring
out both flavor and aroma and, more
over, gives the slight caramel taste

Vice President Roosevelt's homestead
near oyster Bay, n. Y. is an ideal
country seat, aud the Roosevelt fami-
ly is a very old one in the neighbor-
hood. The house is large, homelike
and countrified. quite unpretentious. 1t
crowns the very topmost peak of Saga
more hill.
The approach to the house. through
forest and meadow, Is beautiful and
refreshing in the extreme But it is
not until after one reaches tie top OF
Sycamore hill that the full beauty of
the magnificent panorama is revealed.
The view of the bay, the beadlands,
with the Long Island sound and the
Connecticut coast stretching for miles
and resting against the deep blue of
the sea. is So restful, SO altogether
lovely, that it cannot soon fade from
the memory.
The library, which is splendid
room directly off the main hall, con-
tains about 5000 books. The interior
is one of enchantment to the genuine
book lover. A big open fireplace
stretches across one end of the room.
Above it is a magnificent display of
the heads of deer, rams, antelopes,
mountain sheep and other trophies Of
Colonel Roosevelt's skill as hunter.
The floors are covered with rugs
made of the skins of lions, bears, buff
faloes and panthers, all victims of the
vice presidents gun. In fact the whole
house Is adorned with trophies of the
chase.
Here it is that most of his books and
articles, of which he has written many,
were brought into being.
