Mr.. Burritt's face became flushed,

haste and hot indignation which would
have done credit to one of half his
years. "Jamesi" he cried, with pas

CHAPTER III.
Midniaht Reflections.

Mr. Burritt passed a very restless
night. Perhaps his dinner had dis
agreed with him. More probably it
was the result of the agitation and
excitement caused by the meeting
with the old friend he had not seen
for so many years. At any rate,
whatever the cause. there was no
doubt as to the effect; for he found
it impossible to sleep, or to do any
thing but toss from side to side, as
hour after hour YEARLY wore itself
away BY some peculiar action OF the
brain, he also found himself compelled
to review all the past scenes OF his
life, and mentally, step by step, re-
trace the path he had trodden during
those fifty years or so, which went
to make up the sum of his existence
on this planet.
AL last in despair, he rose. and go
ing to the window, looked out upon
the night 1t was a very moonlight
night-too much so, in fact. There
was something almost weird and
CHASTITY in it's effect. So he dropped
the blind with a crash, and went back
to bed again, hoping that, this time,
he might be able TO sleep.
But it was the same thing over
again. Only this time his thoughts
concentrated themselves upon his
family and his home life. He remem-
bered, with a sense of remorse, that
he had been a little-only a little
irritable at breakfast that morning
and that he had spoken rather sharply

of his sudden expedition.
Certain of his friends sayings had
grated upon his ear. and caused a
chill feeling of dissatisfaction and re-
greet.

heard of the deaths of those others,
cut off, more than one of them, be-
fore they had attained their proper

membered that he was the only one
left who knew all The only one his
friend had to fear. To fearl Surely
that was not the right way to put it?

old friend believed that he had cause

eyes of my child, as well as in those
of the world, whenever you pleased"
The question was, had he. at the
time, really meant what he said? Had
he, for an instant, believed him
capable of such baseness as this?
II so-good heavens. it was a
dreadful thought-would he not have
still greater reason to exclaim, thank
Gody when he heard of his death?

A gallon is exactly ten pounds OF
distilled water; so when housewives
say "a pint's a pound the world
around" they are mistaken. The I'M

same as our own, is the distance be-
tween two fine lines on a bar OF
bronze, measured at 81 degrees Fan
renheit. The bar is kept mounted on
eight rollers in a special steel safe IN
London. The standard pound is kept
in a silver-gilt box contained in
bronze box, the top Of which is secure
ly screwed down and the whole placed
in a special compartment of the same
safe. The German metric system
took the place of more than twenty
local measures. The Hesse-Darmstadi

than fifteen.

Cause of Ocean Tides.

Tides are caused by the gravita-
tional attraction or pull of the sun
and moon upon the water, and upon
the earth itself. The moon being so
much nearer than the sun, is, of
course, the principal cause. When
the moon is directly over a given
thus tends to keep up a tidal wave
just under the moon. At the same
time it is pulling the earth itself; but
it pulls the water more than the earth
underneath, simply because the moon
is nearer to the water on the surface
than it is to the solid earth behind it.
