At last 1t was finished; and long
deep-drawn sigh escaped the throat
OF the artist, AS his practiced eye
followed the detail in search of some
slight imperfection and found none.
How long had it been? How many
hours? How many days? He had
kept no record of time. Nothing had
come up to him from the streets Of
London since the first news of the dis
appearance of the Countess. In
reality almost a week had passed.
The Countess had been given up as
dead, and Alfretti was plunged into
the depths of grief, while his friends
and the friends of the Countess were
wrapped in gloom out Of sympathy
and sorrow.
But on the evening of the fifth day
just after nightfall, a figure crept into
the house of Alfretti and threw itself
into the Counts arms. The Countess
had returned, and new life surged
through Alfretti's veins. The beauti-
full woman had wrapped a large shawl
round her head and shoulders, and
she was still dazed for some moments
after her return to her husbands
arms.
ooh. tell me what has happened?"
she exclaimed. II found myself in the
street, alone, and in the darkness
the street lights were SO dim. And
you-you started for Florence this
afternoon. But you did not go?"
Alfretti knew by these last words
that her mind was a blank since the
time of her disappearance She had
been the victim of some mental aber-
ration and had been wandering-God
knew where. Quickly he fabricated
some story explaining everything. and
set her mind at rest Then he secret
ly instructed the servants and re-
quested all her friends to- refrain
from mentioning the strange dfsap-
pearance in her presence.
When the Sleeping Naiad' Of Mar
golius was hung, critical London paus,
ed in wonder-struck admiration.
One day, at an early hour, before,
the salon had received it's daily crush
of visitors, Margolius paused before,
his own picture. Hearing a footstep
behind him he turned and saw A.
fretti approaching.
"It is my first view" said the lat.
ter, turning his eyes toward the paint.
ing.
The next instant an intense white.
ness settled upon the Counts face, his
lips Quivered and a labored breath,
surged up from his breast. His eyes
sought those of Margolius, and the
hypnotic fire that leaped to meet his
gaze told the story of the Countess

The conception was perfect, but
where throughout all Europe was to
be found the model? In his thoughts.
Margolius carefully went over the list
of models that he knew. One or two
came nearly to the standard he had
set for this piece, but not quite. He
Travelled, visiting the principal cities
of France, Italy and Germany; then
returned to London. Still the model
of his conception had not been found.
Once more he sought throughout Lon
don, but without success. From those
who might have been hired for money,
Margolius turned to those in the
higher walks of life. There was
subtle power he had always held in
reserve for some situation in which
every other expedient had failed.
Should that power now be resorted
to?
Margolius sat one night in a box
at Her Majesty's Theater and sur
veyed the audience with his eyes,
from pit to roof and back again. Sew
'eral times his gaze had fingered on
some especially beautiful woman to
study minutely the nature of her
charm, only to be withdrawn at last
unsatisfied. The boxes had been left
inviolated-for there sat the nobility.
But when the vast audience from the
pit to the roof had been passed in
review and found to yield not the
thing sought for, the vision Of the
artist began boldly to sweep the
boxes. One after another these Gid
ed under his gaze, until an occupant
of one Of them arrested the attention
of Margolius with an electric-like sud-
denness. The Countess Alfretti who,
with her husband was residing in Lon
. don for the season, sat in a box op-
posite that which was occupied by
1.-The artist; and hers were the face
and form that had made such a sud-
den appeal to his sense of perfection.
The model he had sought was before
ihim--but she was the Countess AL
4fmtti However, smile of triumph
stole over the features of Margolius
and he determined that the Countess
should serve him.
The fame of Margolius gave him
eentree to the best society of London.
and 1t was not long before he met the
Countess Alfretti and made the trial
sof his subtle power. She yielded
,quickly--none had ever withstood it.
He found that he swayed her as the
breeze might sway some tender flow
er. In his presence she moved as in a
dream. but there was an ecstacy in

Ode to a Pig.

Bards and sages, through the ages
winning fame instead of wageS),
Have mussed up million pages
With their outcries, small and big.
Singing wrongs that should be righted,
Causes blighted. heroes sighted.
Yet no song have they indicted
To the pig.
Gentle Porous. suOid mammal,
Does the thought that lard and ham'll
Be YOUR future never trammel
Your fond fancies as you dig?
Does it harrow to the marrow
AS YOU pace your quarters narrow,
Dreaming of the storied, glory
OF the pig?
For time was, ere man got at you,
Using squalid means to fat you,
That YOU were to be. congratu-
Lated on figure trfg.
And most daintily You ate your
Food less mingled in its nature,
Fine of face, full fair and graceful
Was the pig.
Oh, the S. p. c. A. be gracioNSs
If your SympathieS be spacious
Bar such treatment contumaciouS-
Teach that 1t is mira dig:
For although some genius nightly
Has described the pen as mighty
You'll admit a sword were inter
For the pig.

GREATEST NATURAL BRIDGE.
One in Wyoming Is, 1870 Feet From
Butress tu Butress.

"a great natural bridge is situated
twenty miles southwest of Douglass,
Wyo., where La PreIe creek breaks
through the foothills of the Laramie
mountains" said Robert Jacobson of
Butte, Mont. "In span of arch it ex-
ceeds anything of it's kind in the
known world. From buttress to but
tress the bridge is $50 feet, and the
highest part of the arch is about Is
feet above the water The arch is al
most as perfect as Tf built by mans
hands instead of formed by the action
of water. The stream here flows, or
rather tumbles amt pitches, through a
narrow, ragged canyon about 1000
feet in depth. Near the lower end of
the gorge ledge or wall of solid rock,
about $50 feet lin height, stretches
right across the canyon. In time long
past the water has plunged over the
top of this rock; wall, which was then
a NATURAL DAM, but finally the water
found it's way underneath, and the re-
suit is the bridge" Free
