If be never offended Heaven much it was lucky, for his onyere were not fervent enough to as - mud beyond 'the church's roof, He had the wisdom of a fool, when a fool is wise, not the folly of a, wise- man. If a man struck him, he would walk calm- ly to the poiice-offiee and state his com- plaint. It ne found a traveler by the wayside who had leen badly used by thieves, lie would walk =laity to the poliee-office with the news. Among the men, he knew there was a,, general belief that a good kicking might do him good. But, out of all Ins acquaintance% there was not one ma,n who felt sufficient interest, in him to try the 'experiment. He never offended any one, mei no one ever offended him. Even. rude women were aiot rude to him. He was the chapinan of small scandals in \Valeria* and Leamington, and yet his talk was looked on as ham - lees ; for, although he could thrust the fang of fact into the flesh, he had not force enough to squeeze the vernom in- to 1 he wound. He had. not courage enough to fear danger, nor was be coward enough to be exalted by despair. No place in this world seemed to suit him exactly, and whe,n those who were weary of hem thoughtte had better seek e.uother, they could never exactly de- termine the region in which he would find a fitting home there. Now Mr. teanley Bayless% had the re- putation of being very rich, and he was not. He had a few hundred pounds, the last of a small fortune left him by his maternal grandmother, and upon this money and the hope of being able to marry a woman of means he was now living. He had never told any one he was rich, but he had led people to suppose he was, He rarely spoke of his financial affairs, but when he did it was always in a vague and general way, as though he himself had no very clear notion of what his position was. He spoke of his man of business, the 'man who looks after me, affairs,' 'my agent,' 'the man who advises me in all legal matters,' mei so on. But whether these were all one and the same man, .or sev- eral men, no one knew for certain. For some tune he had been ind ing the hope that the widow Wanklyn would fall to his het. True, she was not as young as she had been five -and - twenty years ago, but then, like every other woman, she was very nice, and had a most comfortable income. He did not want youth or beauty; but he liked good. clothes and the other ususal attendants on a competency. 'Mrs. Wanklyn had made up her mind that her niece Louisa should marry this man, and thereby. not only prevent the folly of the. girl mating herself with poverty, but at the same tinae be pro- vided with an irreproachable husband with an irreproachable income. For her own. part she had never the least intention of marrying this man or any other; and it is more than likely that if she had any thought of changing her etate and laying aside her widow's cap, she would have chosen a man of much more robust and ungenteel manners and tastes. Tip to this time he had served her purpose, and run of errands and brought her gossip, but now she was re- solved to put him to more important use, and make him solve theadifficulty which had arisen in the Starner family. A.11 throughout dinner and all throughout that evening, Mrs. Wank - en did little else than expatiate on the solid merits of Mr. Baerleess. .He was so good, so amiable, so gentle, so amusing, so useful, so well off, that Mrs. Wank- yn thought any girl who might have he good fortune to get him for a hus- and would be the envy of every other iri who knew him. He was exactly the kind of young man o make a girl happy ; for, while he was free from alt the weaknesses that blem- ish youth, he possessed all the qualities. which could win the affection of a young an.d lovietg heart. He would never cause a. wife a moment's unea,siness, and he would be her. slave. There was no man' more careful or thoughtful -about ladies. He was old enough, too, for marriage; not like a silly boy of five -and -twenty, who did not know hes own mind five minutes, and. fell in love with apretty face wheti he saw it, and renaaaned iri love with- it until the .next pretty face came his vray. ' No girl of any sense would think of marrying a man under thirty; for, until that age, the character of a men was not formed.No matter how amiable and good a 'tha,n might be at twenty- five, there was nothing but time could tell that he would not .be a demon at thirty. But owe a man had passed out of the twenties, his iclisposition was finally farmed. That night, before airs. Wanklyn went to bed, she wrote a note to Stan, ley Bayless, a.skiria him to came over without fail for luncheon to-rnorrow. When tho twa girls got to their room, they sat down ta enjoy a Chat after the ceaseless rattle of their aunt's tongue. .a.bout ten years ago I first became afflicted 1 with Rheumatism and Gout, and during the t last ten years 1 have been treated by several b physieians, and they all advised me that it was g impossible to cure me here, and that the only t remedy tor me was to go to a warmer climate. 1 was confined to my house last December owing to this disease, and was unable to do any work whatever.

Well, my dears, I am sure you will have a fine day and, a gal- lant cavalier, at all events,' eA gallant, =Yeller!' thought Lizzie, with a smile. Now, to the reeidents in Warwick and Leamington Jephson's Gardens were not only genteel but fine. To any Londoner used to Clepham Common and the Parks, the Gardens do not appear wor- thy of partieular notice, and in the mid - die of whiter they look rather dreary and forlorn. There is no other place so like the country as the romantic, parts of the Loadon parks. Bat a fine dee' anywhere among trees ci,nd shrubs, when, one is young and el good bealth, is better than a wet day anywhere among bricks and mortar. But a winter day does uot keep alight long after luncheon; and in a short time, just as tbe long gray winter twi- light began to fall, Stanley Beyiess led the two girls down to the railway -sta- tion, got tickets for them, and took them back to Warwiek. When they got back to Mrs. Wank-- lyn's they found the owner alone in the Ian ina-room. There was yet some tune between then and dinner; and after a few minutes Lizzie and a Loo went to take off their hats. Thus, for the second time that day, the widow and the young man found themselves alone together. Mr, Stanley Bayless had no objection to youth and beauty. He was a man of modest desires. and did not ee-pect to find youth, beauty, and a fortune combined in a wife. But if youth, Int3', and a fortune had came hie way, ha would not have avoided them. Mrs Wanklyn certainly had not youth or beauty, but she had a fortune, and. he valued the la.st more then the other two. But, she had plainly announced to him that very day that. she did not intend to marry. If sae had said no ' more ha would have tried for a short , tune to break his heart over her, and -7" he would have failed. But, when tell- ing him she had resolved to remain single, she had revealed to bine her K heiress. Now this heiress had, any way, e . eoutir and a fortune; that is, she pos- sessed the youth now, and would pos- s seas the fortune one deer in the future. e He would have preferred the ready - I money with the mature charms of the 11 widow, but that could not be. No one ; was ever better off after crying for the moon; so he immediately resolved not toebreak his heart aver the widow's xesoluaion, but to try, insteed, if he , could not win the widow's niece. & 'Well,' said the widow, 'how did you. . get on with the girls?' '0, very well. indeed. They are most , charming, most charming a -; 'And you and Mass Starner chatted e part of the tiny ?' e • Yes, almost all the way, I may say/ 'And you made frientle?' said the we- , dow, with a radiant smile. 0 'Friends, yes—the very best of friends.

'Against what?' asked alra. Stainer innocently. '0, generally,' said the widow vague ly. 'Indeed, I hope so,' said Bayless, as though he thought it would lie an ex- cellent thing to warn her still more °role y by twisting the other out tco. When .luncheon was over tbe girls ieft e table to get ready. Mrs. Starner made. an. excuse and. followed them. 'Well, mother, what do you think of aunt's paragon?' asked Lizzie, when her metlter hadrecovered breath after run- g upstairs. ship Joe.' ' '.1 declare I think we will make a match of it.' 'It is uncommonly kind of you to say saoseeitasaidalsifetedadajausting his isollar with th`nleaid what did Lizzie do the whole th'el ebeagmereur pardon, I have confused A nice lover, indeed, who does not know the name of the lady he honors with his attentions!' Tha widow had not felt so happy for a long time. 'The tall fair Miss Starner seemed out of spirits, and spoke but very little.' • 'And who on earth was it you, talked with so much, and who gave you the spray of myrtle?' 'The Miss Stainer who is dark, and is not tall,' he answered, looking down at her in surprise. Mrs. Wanklyn rose and turned im- patiently upon him. - 'Why, you have been making love to the wrong sister Ife started. 'Ah, that is unfortunate. HadI not better apoligize to her, and begin over again with the other?' 'Hush! Here they are.' (To 'Be Continued.) 'Isn't he dre,adfui?' said Mrs. Stainer, holding up both her hands. 'And yet,' said Lizzie, 'I am greatly afraid Loo is already half in love with him, and I am sere by the time we mane back from this walk it will be all over with poor Loci ' 'What I' cried Mrs. Starner, with un- qualified disgust; fall in love with him! I'd rather live all my life in a garret with a man than sit behind the carriage of such a creature as that.' 'But then, you know, he is so rich and amiable,' said Lizzie maliciously. She thought it better to provoke Loo by any mesas than to let her brood. in silence with her melancholy eyes fixed on vacancy. 'I hate amiable men,' said Mrs. Sta- iner hotly; 'and I don't think riches are much of a recommendation in a young man.' The mother rose, went over to her younger daughter, and put- ting her arm round her, said, There now, Loo, don't mind hare Loo had not seemed to mind her sis- ter in the least. She had not uttered or looked, a protest. The mother knew this, and she knew that Loo hardly heard the words uttered by Lizzie; but she was not content with that. She wanted her youngest daughter to know that all her sympathy was with the 03.1180 of young Aubyn. In the mean time Mrs. Wanklyn and Mr. Stanley Bayless were alone in the dining -room. 'When I called last evening,' he said, standing over the easy -chair in which she lounged, 'it was in the hope of find- ing you alone, as there was something of great consequence I wished to speek to you about. 'When may I have the pleasure of a few minutes' conversation with you?' Ile looked tenderly at her, and sighed. 'Now, if you wish it.' She knevv very well what he wanted to say. 'Ah, yes,' he said but the ladies will soon 13e down, and I Should not care for an interruption once I had begun.' He moved bas hands softly towards her.

Au American, Suing a Railroad Company l'or $50,000. In the trial, of his $50,000 damage suit against the Mexican Central Railway Company Herbert 13. Geier relates his experiences in. a Mexican prison. The trial is heard by Judge Neely. The suit charges false imprisonment, his arrest and incarceration batting been due to a robbery committed ia the office of 'the company ia the City of Mexico, where he was employed in June, 1890. The rob- bery occurred on the morning of June 17. On teat morning he arrived at the raiheted office shortly before 8 o'cloek, and was inforrued that 8,000 had been stolen from the safe of the payraaster during the nigbt. He and seven other employes of the office were locked in a room and he was compell- ed to make a statement, giving an ac- count of his movements. Later he was taken to the prieon in tale center of the eit,y, called "Belera," which is both a jail and a penitentiary, On reaching that place he was taken down several flights of stairs and given into the charge of a Mexican who, witb One hand, held a buladoge by a chain, and in the other had a club as large as a baseball bat. This 1E04 pushed him in- to a dangeon, whiclt he said he eould not describe, for the reason that he saw nothing of the interior. It was too dark to see his nand before his face, but. he was there for neari,y three hours, stand- ing on a floor which was SLIPPERY WITH SLIME, He was then taken out of the dark dungeon and played in a room, 5 feet by 7, with a heavy wooden doorevlaich was locked tiglit. The only other open- ing was a small wiadow a foot from, the ceiling. There was DO bed or an3r- thing else tri the room, but he remained there for .seventy-seven. hours. Each morning he was in Oils room, the door was opened by a Mexican, who pushed a pan of gruel into the room and then locked the doer again. At, on the door was again opened and a piece of boiled meat and a chunk of bread throe n in upon tale floor, In the evening the door again opened and a small pot of beams was pushed in. That was the daily bill of fare, with water, which was handed in occasionally. "Front the solitary cell," said Gehr, "2 was taken to a larger room, in which tbere were forty-five prisoners. The room was 25 feet wide and. 45 feet long, and had two email windows on one side opening into a court in the ecu - ler of the parasol). There was no fur- niture and no bedding in the room,and each man marked out a plaike upon the floor where he slept. 1Ve lay on the floor in rows. Many of the prisoners were convicted felons, and in the orowd were eight murderers, several thieves and men convicted of every other crime." Gehr was in tbis place for fifty-five days when he was released by order of President Diaz, after the latter had re- eeived a denaand from the United States, Sereetary of State.

New Idea in Schools, Ari important measure to be present- ed to the next Pennsylvania Legisla- ture by the Department of Public, In- struction will provide for the abandon- ment of the country school houses and the centralization of the sohools into two or three buildings in each township. These central schools would have the ad- vantages, as compared with the country schools, of being graded and of having superior apparatus and facilities. The plan contemplates also the use of convey - anew, at the public expense, for pupils living at a distance from the schools. Several townships in the State have ex- perimented with the idea, and are pleas- ed with it. They not only have better schools, hub they find that there is ec- onomy in centralization, the saving in maintenance of school buildings and in salaries of teachers nibre than balancing the cost of transportation of children The plan is not peouhar itt Pennsylvan- ia. It has been adopted with good re- sults in Connecticut towns a large area' and small population, and has the warm approval of the Board of Education of that State. Tit for Tat.

In many cases the doctors are powerless to cure these troubles. They can relieve the suffering little ones, but in South American Nervine we have a medicine that does more than simply give relief. Its peculiar strength is that it completely cures where physi- cians relieve. A. case in point came to us the 24th ult., in a letier from Mr. James W. McRitchie of Bothwell, Ont. He says :-.-"My daughter Maggie, aged 9 years, *was afflicted with nervous fainting spells for over a year, which left her in such a con- dition of weakness afterwards that the child was practically an invalid.

Seeing South American Nervine advertised, as par - Ocularly efficacious in nervous dim. eases, 1 decided on trying it for ber, and I must say that I noticed a decided change in my daughter for the better after she had taken only a few doses. As a result of using this medicine, she is now entirely free from those faint- ing spells and possessed of that life and brightness that is the happy lot of childhood. I am satisfied it is an excellent medicine for any nervous weakness. My experience has been further supplemented in the fact that my wife has also been using South American Nervine for indigestion, dyspepsia and nervous prostration, and has found very great relief."
