MRS. MEADE'S RUSE.
ODNEY SMITH loved. his ease
better than anything else in the
wide world. He had a compe-
tence which enabled him to
gratify hie every whim, to travel
in a first-class manner, or to stop
at home in luxury and indolence.
It is needless to add that he had
become selfish, and now, at 35, was averse
to seeing the dark side, of any event per-
• taining to himself or anybody else. It was
not strange a certain letter, which reached
him when all without ' was cold and cheer-
less, proved disturbing at first, then irri-
tating. Forced to think and act, he touched
the bell at his albow—the summons brought
his valet.. •
" John," /said the master, " order 'the
close carriage and bays to'meet the 2
o'clock train from Philadelphia. I will go
myself."
• The lackey bowed and withdrew. Two
hours later the wealthy owner of " The
Pines" and vast manufacturing interests in
the'adjacent city was pacing the railway
platform, inwardly grumbling :
" Just like my sister to thrust upon me,
without warning, or my consent, the, ward.
'whom, I suppose she has•' found trouble-
some or too expensive to keep on her own
hafds. Of course I remember Tillie Green-
: field—God knows I have occasion to do so 1
• Did she not spurn my advancea and marry f
another? I 'was but a boy at the time; but
her refusal made me what 1 am:` And now '
' Mary sends me 'her orphaned. daughter,
, with the cool injunction that,. -while doing
my best for her comfort, I am notate fall in. o
love with Mabel, as she has other views for t
her ! Cool, upon my word ! ' And her gov- . h
erness is to accompany the girl, 'end' my
house is to be invaded and turned irate .a g
young ladies' boarding school without so t
mach as 'By your leave'! "
A shriek of the whistle announced the
coming of the train, and Rodney stood .with b
his brows sternly knit, determined to show. o
his unwelcome guests, from the outset, that a
they had no great enjoyment to anticipate .
from his society, • t
Alighting 'from the train, two ladies, one
of them -young and beautiful, stood in some h
embarrassment, while Rodney advanced b
toward them. ' With cold politeness he s
asked : bl
" Are you looking for Rodney Smith of a
The Pines ? " s
With great dignity the elder lady re-
plied : lo
" We are."
" I am he," he curtly said, and added, as b
if issuing an order, " follow me to the car- td.
ridge." - m
Speechless with indignation and wounded' t
pride, Mrs. Hermann and her pupil followed w
this man, of whom his sister had spoken as
being " so kind, so generous, and so al
anxious to do something for poor Tillie's as
daughter." td.
The- rive was embarrasing in the extreme bl
to thet>fl, for by the greatest effort only va
. could 1)1' bel Greenfield keep back the tears hi
which she would " rather have died than w
shed," she said afterward. Mrs. Hermann
attempted no conversation save to. call the w
' attention of her charge to the fine scenery eh
through which,they were rapidly driven. er
Once .in their rooms—an elegantly fur- or
nished suite had been hurriedlyprepared for
them—they gave way to their griet and in- yl
dignation. . It was hard to meet with such as
coldness when they had anticipated the
light and warmth of a cordial reception. he
There was nothing to do but to await de- fo
velopments and the arrival of Mr. Smith's fo
sister, who had promised to join them upon th
her arrival from her European trip two ha
months later. he
They dreaded to meet this haughty auto- en
crat, who so ovideiitly resented their intru-
sion ; but time inevitably brings around the ee
regular meeting tunes, breakfast luncheon led
and dinner, and however easy it may be to sei
ignore household members when they are an

ney ordered his saddle horse and rode
four hours to overcome hie resentment
" such an open insult."
sbayrafl;e 'day- passed; wfth linin- ar
concession on the part of the ladies forced
upon Rodney Smith's hospitality, until this
bachelor longed for the companionship
within his reach yet denied hires. Day by
day he grew more interested in his sister's
young ward, until after due deliberation he
determined to make still greater overtures
to win her favor. He decided to invite
some friends to dinner and asked Mrs. Her-
mann if she would assist him in entertain-
ing them. To his joy, she consented,, and
added that as Mabel was a fine pianist she
ight be able to add her share to the
general enjoyment. Words are powerless
to express Rodney'a satisfaction at this
concession.
The guests arrived in due time, and Rod-
ney was pleased to see that all admired the
fair young girl whom he had learned to love,
but to whom he dared not breathe even a
word of admiration.
Mabel was indeed radiantly beautiful
when seated at the piano, with her middle-
aged lover standing by her side, jealously
watching the effect of her charms upon he
friends. Even he was satisfied, glorying in
their surprise and. the just praise poured
into his ears.
When Mrs. Mary Meade arrived al New
York 'from her trip to Europe a telegram
awaited her in tbese words :
" Come at once: You have wrought my
ruin. RODNEY."
She• laughed heartily when the bell boy,
who delivered the message with her letter,
left the room.
" Ah, ha, Rodney !" she exclaimed. "So
you -have been caught at last ! I have my
sweet revengefor your stubbornness when
I begged you time and again to " just see"
my lovelyward, the daughter of your old
sweetheart, whom you loved as a boy
loves."
but who did not care for you. You never
could forgive her for your wounded pride,
and so cruelly refused to even look at her
child after death had taken both parents.
But I have you now, old fellow ! "
In the airy apartment used as a study by
Mrs. Hermann and her pupil, Mrs. Meade
buret into uncontrollable laughter when the
former confided her alarm at the dilemma in
which she found herself.
* " We came here; as you know," she said,
" with very little money, prepared to be
graciously met, and our dependence robbed
of its sting by a cordial welcome. Our recep-
tion was anything but flattering, and had
our purse being less vaunt we would never
have left the station in your brother's com-
pany. But the misery of the first few days
was as nothing . to the anxiety of the last
month, for Mr. Smith is madly in love with
Mabel, ' and she . has grown very fond of
him: 'I have been at my wits' ends td
keep them within bounds until your return;
or I could.- not, risk your displeasure.
Well I remember'your parting injunction.
Bear in mind, Mrs. Hermann, you 'are
not to.,allow.Mabel to conceive any foolish
notions concerning -my ,brother., . I have
ther views for her•.' I tried to be faithful
o your commands and to my position, but
ave failed_ dismally. • . _ ,
• While Mrs, Meade was. mystifying the
overneas by' her laughter, a knock upon
he door announced the arrival of Rodney,
who, ignoring the presence of Mrs. Her-
mann, first; embraced, then began to up,-
raid
p;raid .his sister for destroying his peace
f mind.. Mrs. Meade still laughed, and,.
eked
" Where is Mabel, that she does not com
o greet me ?" -
For answer the young girl glided,, toward
er, springing into her open arms and
timing into tears. Mr. Smith envied'his
inter, and wished ` hiniself in her place.'
rs. Meade held her ward at. arm's length.
nd, looking first at her, thee at Mr. Smith,
aid: .•
" What do you two mean ? You •are in
ve with each other all through my own
Tanning, and instead of thanking me for
ringing you together, one upbraids and
to other showers me with tears. Now, be
anly, Rodney, and tell Mabel in words
hat you are dying 'for her love, and [see
hat she will say !" -
Rodney Smith needed no second bidding,
though he was almost paralyzed with
tonishment and joy as he began to see
trough his sister's ruse. Shy, sweetMabel
ushingly placed her hand in his as he ed-
uced with the all-important question in
s eyes, for he could not speak, so great
as his happiness.
Mrs. Hermann declared that Mrs. 141eade
as the most mysterious of women, when
e fairly understood that she had delib-
ately planned the closing of her home in
der to bring about the result.
Of course there was an engagement, but
r2. Meade would, not listen to any propo-
la for, a hasty marriage.
" Mabel must go to Europe to complete
r sudies, and Roduey must wait patiently
r," she added impressively, " love's trans-
rmation is great, but a man of five and
irty years who has lived for himself alone, ,
s much to undo and to learn before
can be fitly mated to a bright, inexperi-
ced girl."
Rodney submitted to this with tolerable
ace. So while Mabel was gaining know-
ge, lie faithfully battled to overcome
fiahness, striving to be noble in thought
cd. deed.
One day, not long ago, on the deck an of
oming steamship a party of ladies' looked
ong the waiting ,rev'd for one dearer to
o of them than all the world beside.
at one was RodneySmith—not the selfish
rtal who had chafed under his forced
ition as host two years before, but a

• It is advisable that, he or She who wishes
to find a pair of spectacles adapted -to their
wants should be content with the lowest
number with which they can see objects
clearly—that is,aff the age is'50, try to get
along, if possible, with No. 24 before taking
to No. 20. Persons as they advance in
Vara require to change their glasses from •
time to time for those of a higher power.
When the eyes are afflicted with weakness,
colored spectacles, green, blue or gray, are
found to be very useful. Indeed, there is
no defect of sightwhich cannot be greatly
assisted by the skill of the optician. -
• TEE HUMAN EYE.
The man of science sees that the eye wars
made . by One who understood the 'trans-
mission, reflection and refraction of light ;
how to make lenses of different powers, ad-
just them for clear perception of near or
distant objects how to make and use moat

crease or diminish light how to place the
eye sa as to be of moat service, protected
Hem injury, moistened from time to time,
and able to close or shut. , Common sense is
,sure that Divine Intelligence made the eye ;
and, in duty bound, worships God. .
THE STRUCTURE OF THE HUMAN EYE.
The cornea is that transparent window in
front of the human eye, like' a watch -glass
in front of the metal case. • A short dis-
tance behind this is a crystalline lens,
'covered by the iris, a curtain of vary-
ing color, perforated in the centre
by the pupil -a round hole,- the edges of
which are in contact with the front of the
lens. . The lens is circular, biconvex and
elastic, It is attached at the edge by a
circular band, the ciliary body, to the inside
of the eye. The tension of this ring, and of
the lens itself, is regulated by muscular
fibres called the ciliary muscle. The con-
traction of this muscle diminishes the 'ten-
sion of the lens, and its surfaces, chiefly the
front one, become more convex. The
healthy eye, when at rest, 'sees distant
objects distinctly. By contraction of the
ciliary muscle it is accommodated to discern
those .which are near. Thus the images of
objects, whether near or far off, are brought
to a focus on the back of the dark. chamber
of the eye. Defects are partly the result of
an artificial way of life, and partly of
changes wrought by old age. By the eye is
seen the wealth of Corm and color among
flowers, the distant landscapes of the earth,
all the varieties of sunlight that reveal, them,
and the countless shining worlds that fill
immeasurable space. It is the unsurpassed
model of opticians ; philosphera extol it as
an organism full of wonders ; poets and
orators justly celebrate its praise. Every
instant, with rapidity, we turn the eget
from one point to another in the field of
vision ; and this rapidity, with perfection
of the mailer field, and the rough sketching
in of the larger, make the eye far superior
to anyother
optical instrument.,
I'Ai'EY ON VISION.
Paley, in " Natural Theology," says :
" In' considering vision by means of an
image formed at the bottom of an eye, we
ern never reflect without wonder"upcn the
1,mallness.' yet correctness of the picture,
the snbtilty of the touch, the fineness of
the lines. A. 1'ir-,c'a^ape of five or Six P,!uare

stantially represented. A stage -coach
travelling at its ordinary speed for half an
hour passes in the eye over only one -twelfth
of an inch, yet is this change of place in the
image distinctly perceived throughout the
whole progress, for it is only by means of
that perception that the motion of the
coach itself is made sensible to the eye."
THE EYES OF INSECTS.
In all creatures the eye is a wonderful in-
strument ; but, probably, the eyes of in-
sects excite highest admiration. On the
heads of beetles, bees, flies, butterflies and
other insects, are, two protuberances ; these,
examined by the microscope, are found to
contain a prodigious number of small, tran-
sparent hemispheres, placed with the
utmost regularity in lines crossing one an-
other as lattice work. These hemispheres
are eyes which, like so many mirrors, reflect
the images of surrounding objects. Some
insects possess thousands. A manifold
infinite adaptation of means is thus unfolded
for contemplation.

British Courts Not. Yet Debauched.
British society may be at a low ebb,
morally, and sections cut from it anywhere
will undoubtedly show diseased strata' near
the top. But if British society is de-
bauched, British respect for law is not, nor
are the processes 'of law enfeebled by cor-
ruption as yet. A system of jurisprudence
that can compel the presence of the heir
apparent to the throne as a witness and
subject him to cross-examination as com=
pletely as the humblest of his subjects, that
does not hesitate to fling . one feminine
ornament of the rotten ,society into jail for
theft and another into prison for murder, is
still reasonably sound.—New York' Com-
