CHAPTER rv.
Three days atter the little dinner in
aalf-Moon Street, Mrs. Waisinghaan
eat at her solitary breakfast -table rath-
er later than usualdawdling over the
morning papers, and wondering drear-
ily what she shou14 do with the sum-
mer day before her. She had seen noth-
ing a Gilbert Sinelair since the din-
ner, and had endured an agony of self -
torment in the interval. His name ap-
peared La one a the morning journals
among the guests at a distinguished
countess's ball on the previous evening,
and in the list of names above Mr. Sin-
clear's she founA those of Lord Clare
yarde alla Ilitt daughter. There had
been a time when Gilbert set his face
against ail fashionable entertainnaents,
voting' them the abomination of Zieso-
lation. lie had changed of late, and
went everywhere, rainug fond hopes in
the breaaie a anxious mothers with
large broods of marriageable daughters
waiting for their promotion.
Mrs. Walsingham sat for some time
looking vaeantly at the long list of
names, anti thinking a the man she
loved.. Yes, she lured him. She keew
his nature by heart, knew how nearly
that obstinate, selfish nature verged up-
on brutalit y. and loved him neverthelesa
Something in A he force of his charact-
er exercised over her own imperfect dis-
position. She had believed in the stren-
gth of his affection for herself, which
had been shown in a pa,esionate, undis-
ciplined kind of manner that blinded her
to the shallowness of the sentiment. She
had. been intensely proud of her power
over this rough Hercules, all the more
proud of his ettlijugation because of
that half -hidden brutishness winch she
had long ago divined in him. She lik-
ed him for what he was, and scari•ely
wished him to be better than he was.
She only warded him to be true to her.
'Wlsen be had asked her, years ago. to
be his wife, she had frankly told lam
the story of her youth and marriage.
Her husbanti was five -and -twenty years
her senior, a man with a constitution
broken by nearly haat a century of hard
living, and she looked forward bope-
fully to a speedy release from a union
that had. long been hateful to her, She
had believed that it would be possible
to retain Gilbert's affection until the
time when t -hat release should come
without sacrifice of her reputation. Had
she not believed and hoped this, it is
impossible to say what guilty sacri-
nee she might have been willing to
make rather than lose the rnan she lov-
ed. She had hoped to keep him dang-
ling on, governed by her womanly tact,
a faithful slave, until the colonel, who
led a stormy kind of existence about
the continent, haunting German gam-
ing -tables, should, be good enough to
depart this life. But the colonel was
a long time exbausting his battered
constitation, and the flowery chain in
which Mrs. Walsingham held her cap-
tive had faded considerably with the
pasea.ge of years.
A loud double knock ,startled the
lady from leer reverie. Who could sucb
an early viator be? Gilbert lum.self,
perhaps. He had one of those exception-
al constitutions to which fatigue is a
stranger, and would be no later astir
to -day for last night's ball. Her heart
fluttered hopefully, but sunk again with
the familiar anguish of disappoint•ment
as the door was opened, and a low, de-
ferential voice made itself heard in the
hall. Those courteous tones did not Ise -
long to Gilbert Sinclair.
.A. card was brought in to her pres-
ently, with James anyatt's name upon
it, and "on special businegs, with many
apologies," written in pencil below the
name, in the solicitor's neat hand.
"Shall I show the gentleman to the
drawing-roinn, ma'am, or will you. see
him here?" asked the servant.
"Ask him to come in here. What
special business eau Mr. Wyatt have
with me?" she wondered.
The solicitor came into the room as
she asked. herself this question, looking
very fresh and bright, in his
careful morning costume, with a hot-
house flower in the button -hole of his
perfectly fitting coat, He WaS more
careful of his toilet than many hand-
somer men, and knew how far the ele-
gance of his figure and the perfection
of his dress went to atone for bis plain
face.
"My dear, Hrs. Walsixigham," he be-
gan, "I owe a thousand apologies for
this unseasonable intrusion. IL I did
not think the nature of my businesa
would excuse-"
"There is nothing to be excused. YOU
Lind. me guilty of a very- late bieakfast
that is all, Why should you not call
at half -past ten as well as at half -past
two? It is very kind of you to come
at all." t.
There was a tone 'of indifference in
all this politeness, a half -weary tone
which dui not fail to strike James Wy-
att. He had naade this woman a study
during the last year, and he knew every:
note of her voice,. every expression of
her face
ratuipex. my business recreires me to
be au courant as to Contuiental af-
fairs, and I get several French and Ger-.
man newspapers. In one of the last I
found the account of a duel, succeeding
upon a quarrel at the gaming able, in
waicla your husband fell, shot through, the langs. He only survived a few
hours. His opponent was a Frenoh-
araan, and is now under arrest. Shall
/ I read the paragraph?"
• "If you please," answered Mrs. Wel-
' singhina with perfect calmness of mea-
ner, 'Her heart was beating ttunult-
, otaisini nevertheless. She had a dismal
convnition that no advantage -that is
to say, not that one advantage for
; witieh she longed -would come to .her
trora her husband's death. How eager-
ly she had desired his death once! To-
day the news gave her little satisfaction.

• "As many a my friends believe me
. to have been left a widow long ago,
• I shall raake no fuss about this event;
and I shall be very grateful if pais will
be good enough not to ta.lk of it any-
where," Mrs. Walsinghean said, by and
by, after a thougatful pause.
"I shall be careful to obey you," ans-
wered the lawyer.
"I wonder how ypu came to guess
that I was not. a widow, and that Col-
onel Walsingbaxis was illy husband. He
took me abroad directly after our mar-
riage, and we were never an England
together."
"It is a solicitor's business to know
a great. many things, and in this case
there Was a strong personal interest.
yOU. aecused me just now of flattering
women; and it IS quite true that I
have now and then aniused myself a
little with the weaker of your sex, lin-
til about a year ago I believed myself
incapable of any real teeling-of any
strong attachment -and had made up
ray mind to a life of solitude, reueved by
the frivolities of society. But, at that
time a great change came over me, and
I found that I too was doomed to suffer
life's great fever, In a word, I fell des-
perately in love, think you ean guess
the rest."
"I am not very good at guessing, but
I suppose the lady is some friend of
mine, or you would scarcely choose me
for a confidante. Is it Sonlay Morton?
I know you admire her."
"As I admire wax dolls. or the Hai-
dees and Zuleikaa of an illustrated By-
ron," answered Mr. Wyatt, with a. wry
face, "Sophy Morton would have about
as much power to touch my heart or
influence my mind as the wax dolls or
the Byronic beauties. There is only
one woman have ever loved, or ever
can love, and ber name is Clara Wal-
singliam."
alrs. Walsinghara looked at him with
unaffected surprise.
"Of course I ought to feel very touch
flattered by such a declaration onyour
part, Mr. Wyatt, if I could. quite aring
: myself to believe in your sincerity."
'Put me to proof,"
/ "I can not do that. eau only thank
you for the honor you have dune me,
and. regret that you should endanger
the smooth course of our friendship by
that kind of declaration. I have learn-
ed to rely: upon you as a friend and ad-
viser, a thorough man of the world,and
the last of mankind to lapse into sen-
timentality."
"There is no sentimentality in the
business, Mrs. Walsingbaan. I offer you
a real and deeoted affeotion, such an
affection as a man feels but once in his
life, and which a woman should scarce-
ly - rejecit without a thought, of its
value. I know I must seem at. a• disad-
vantage among the men. who surround.
you, but they are men of the butterfly
species: and I believe the best of them
to be incapable of feeling as I feel to
you. Yes, you are right when you call
me a man of the world. It is to such
men that love comes with its fullest
force when it comas at all. I have not
yielded weakly to the great master of
mankind. 1 have counted the cost, and
I know the devotion which I offer you
fto-udnady.,ns as unalterable as it. is pro.
"1 am sorry that I should have in-
epired any such sentiment, Mr. Wyatt.
i can never return it."
"Is that your irrevocable reply?"
"It is," she answered', decisively.
'lour reject the substance -an hon-
est man's devoted love -and yet you are
content to waste the best, years of your
life upon a shadow."
"1 don't understand you.."
"Oh, yes, I think you do. I think
you know as well as 1 do how frail
a reed you have to lean on when you
put your trust in Gilbert Sinclair."
"You have no right to speak about
Mr. Sinclair," answered. Clara Walsing-
ham, with an indignant flush. "What
do you know of him, or of my feelings
in relation to him'?"
"I know that you love him. Yes,
- Clara, it is the business of a friend. to
speak plainly; and even at the hazard
' of incurring your anger, I will do so.
Gilbert Sinclair is not worthy of your
affection. You will know that I am
right before long 1! vou do not know it
now. It is not in Allot man's nature
to be constant under difficulties, as I
' would be constant to you. Your hold
upon him has been growing weaker
every year."
"If that is true, I shall discover tha
fact quite soon enough froiu the gentle-
man himself, replied Mrs, Walsingham,
in a hard voice, and with an angry
cloud upon her face. "Your friendship,
not require o en-
lighten me on the subject which seem-
ly come -s within the province of a so-
' Reiter. Yes, Mr. Wyatt, since plain
• speaking is to be the order of the day;
I am weak enough and blind enough
, to care for 'Gilbert Sixtcleer better than
, for any one else upon this earth, and if
'• I do not marry him, I shall never marry

i "I hold it one of my dearest privil-
eges to be received by you," he replied.
with a certain grave tenderness. "There
are some men who do not know when
they are happy, Mrs. Walsingham. I
am not one of those."
She looked at him with s surprise
that was half scornful
"Pray spare me the pretty speeches
which make you so popular with other
women," she said. "You spoke of busi-
ness just now. Did you really mean
Inisme.se?
"Not in a legal. sense. My errand this
morning is of rather a delicate nature
I would not for the world, distress or
offend you by any unwarranted allus-
ion to your domestic relations, but I
believe I•am the bearer of news which
can scarcely have reached you yet by
any other channel, and which may not
be altogether un.weloomen
"What news can you possibly bring
me?" she asked, with a startled look.
"Would it distress you to hear that
Colonel Walsingbara is ill-daiagerously
ill, even'?"
Her breath ca,me quicker as he spoke.
"I am not hypocrite enough to pre-
tend that," she answered, "My heart
hes long been dead to any feelmg but
antger--I will not say hatred, though
he has deserved as much -where that
roan is concerned. I have suffered too
much by my alliance with him."
"Then let me be the first to con-
gratulate you upon your release from
bondage. Your husband is dead."
Clara Walsizeghames cheek blanched,
and she was silent for sonie moments;
and then she asked, in a steady voice,
'Bow did you come by the news of his
death?'`
"In the simplest and most natural
. es,
I have seen the change in hira. It
would be vain falsehood if I denied it.
' I have seen the change, and I am wait-
ing for the inevitable day in which the
• man once believed in shall declare
himself a traitor."
"Would it not be wise to take • the
initiative, and give him his dismissal,"
"No. The wrong shall come from
ff he can be base enough to for-
get all the promises of the past, and to
ignore the sacrifices I have made for
bira, bis infamy shall have no excuse
, from any folly of mine."
"And if you find that he is false to
you -that he has transferred. his affec-
tion to another woman -you will ban-
ish him from your heart and mind,
trust, and begin life afresh."
1, Mrs. Walsingham laughed aloud.
"Yes, I shall begin a new life; for
from that hour I shall only live upon
one hope."
! "And that will be-"
I "The hope of revertge."
"My dear Mrs. Walsingharal" remon-
strated the lawyer.
"That sounds melodramatics', does it
not Bat, You see, there is a strong
mixture of the melodramatic element in
real life. Gilbert Sinclair should knoin
that I am not a woman to be jilted with!
that I should poison him or stab
impunity. Of ceurse I don't mean
That sort of thing 10 un-Eaglish and. ob-
selete, except among tee laboring
classes, who have a rapid way of takings!
payment tor the wrongs that are done I
them. No. I ehoula not kill hira ; but
rel. • upon it, 1. should make his life rais-
er°. le.
Mx. Wyatt watched her face with. A
thoughtful expression in his owu. Yes,
she looked the kind of woman whose
anger would take some tangible and
perhaps fatal form. She was not a. ,
woman to carry the burden of a broken '
heart in silent patience to the grave.
"Upon my life, I should be afraid to •
offend her," thought Jamas Wyatt, :
"Revenge is a bad word," he said,
after another long pause. "Redress is
tau& better. If Mr. Sinclair sbould
ntarry, as I iutve some reason to think
he wane"
"What reason'?"
"Public rumor. His attentions to a!
certain young lady have been remark-
ed by people .1 know,"
"Tile lady is the beautiful Miss Clan- ,
Yarde."
'How did you discover that ?"
"From. his face the other nigbt."
"You are quick at reading his face. •
Yea, I believe he is over head and ears
in love with Constauee Clain_yarde, ea
inueh better man, Cyprian Davenant,
waii before him; and .1 have no doubt
Lord Clanyarde sent do his utmost to I
bring the matob about."
"How long laa,s this been going on ?" I
"Sinoe the beginning of this season.
He may have lost his beart to the lady !
last yeax, but his attentions last. year !
Were not so obvious,"
"Do you know if Mies Clanyarde cares
for him ?"
"1 bave no moans of knowing tile 1
lady's feeling on the subject, but I
have a considerable knowledge of her
father 10 the way of business a and 1
am couvineed she will be made -Induced
is, I supposes a more appropriate word
-to aceept Sinclair as a Ousband. Lord i
Clanyarde le as poor as Job and as
proud as Lucifer. Yes, I think we may
look upon the marriage as a certainty.
And now, airs. Walsingham, remem-
ber that by whatever means you seek
redress I am your friend, and shall
hold myself ready to aid and abet you
in the exaction of your just right. You
have rejected me as a, busband. You
shall discover bow faithful 1 ean be as
an ally."
"1 don't quite underetand the nature
of the alliance you propose. Do you
mean you will help use to come lie-
tween that man and all hope of domes-:
tie happiness? Yoe. do not know how
raercilesn I could be if chance gave me .
the power to punish Gilbert nanclair's
infidelity."
"I know that he will deserve little
passion from you."
"But from you? He has never in-
jured you,"
"Do hot be so sure of than There
are petty insults and trivial injuries
that make up the sum of a great wrong,
Gilbert Sinclair has not treated me
well. I will not trouble you with the
dry details of our business relations,
but I have sufficient reasons for re-
sentuaeut without reference to you.
And now I will inteede upon you no
Imeger. I see you are a little tired of
Ibis conversation. I only entreat you
once more to remember that I am your
friend."
Mrs. Walsingliam looked at him with
a doubtful expression. He had sub-
jugated her pride completely by the
boldness of lits attack. Ac another
time she might bare been angry with
hins, but the weariness of her spirit,
the dull sense ot impending sorrow,
were more powerful than anger. She
only felt humiliated and perplexed by
James Wyatt's proffers of love and
frieridsbip, uucertain how far be had
been sincere in either offer.
"I have no doubt I ought to be grate-
ful to you, alx. Wyatt," she said, m a
slow, weary way, "but I do not think
your friendship can over be of much
service to me in the future business of
my life, and I trust that you will for-
get all thai bas been said this morn-
ing. Good-bye."
She gave him her hand. He held
it with a gentle pressure as he ans-
wered her.
"It is impossible for me to forget any-
thing that you have said, but you shall
find me as seeret ae the grave. Good-
bye."
He bent his head and touched her
hand lightly with his lips before releas-
ing it. In the next mMant he was
gone.
"How she loves that snob 1" he said
to himself, as he walked away from
Half-Aloon Street. "And how charm -
mg she is! Rich too. I could scarcely
make a better match. It is a case
which inclination and prudence go to-
gether. And how easily I raight have
won her but for that man 1 Weil,
well, I don't despair of ultimate victory,
in spite of Gilbert Sinelair. Everything
conies to the man es -ho knows how to
wait."

WHALES ON A CABLE.
The Insulation Damaged Ry the Founder -
lug er the Rig Fish.
Submarine cables are usually imbed-
ded in the slimy bottom of the ocean,
but at certain points they hang like
wire bridges over -deep submarine val-
leys, so that whales and other large
inhabitants of hte deep may become dan-
gerous to the cable. Once in a while
it is the cable that becomes dangerous
to the whales, as recently shown in an
accident to the Western Brazilian ca-
ble. There was sorne trouble with the
wise, and after many futile efforts the
seat of the trouble was discovered '76
miles north of Santa Catharines The
repair ship Viking was sent to repair
the damage, and began to take up the
_cable near where the seat of trouble
• had been located. After the cable pro-
per had been grappled and was taken
up on the large drums provided for the
Purpose it was found that it floated
very much easier and was more buoy-
ant than was ordinarily the case. The
reason was discovered when in a loop
of the cable the carcass of a whale of
more than 60 feet in length came up
with it. It anpears that the whale
had becomnoaught under the cable, and
• not being able to rift it nor to go -for-
ward or back, it sulfocated, since it
could no more rise to the surface. By
its last spasms or attempts to free it-
self the whale had damaged the cable
so that the insulation was rubbed off
and the wire became useless. This is
the third case of the kind since a sim-
ilar wee once happened in the Persi-
an Gulf and another on the Peruvian
coast.

Commissioners Ministers of Public
Works 0,13tI of the Finances in the
Nubar Pasha Ministry. - This was the
era of good. feeling in Europe.
It couldnot last long. Ismael re-
sented 1 -he inevitable control over his
expenses that the Freston and English
Atinieters exereised; then he reduced
himself, by political concessions, to the
situation of a mere Constitutional sov-
ereign and finally irritated to exas-
peration France and England, whose
Governments applied Lo the Sultan for
Istruters deposition. Ismael was de-
posed by Imperial trade dated June 26,
1879,
ISMA. EL'S 8 CCESS OR,
his son Tewfik Pasha, had no political
sense and no energy. Ile was intelli-
gent enough not to persist ba his fath-
er's fight against France and Eugland;
he was wise enough to accept the re'
forties which were asked, of him; he had
public, spirit enough to aid Blignieres
and Colvin in re-establishing the financ-
es of his country, but he ha,d aot
gth enough to prevent an insurrection
of his array officerstiegun in protest at
a reduction •of their salaries,continued
shnply because it was tolerated, and,
finished in 1881 under pretense of pa-
triotic indignation at the encroach-
raente of foreigners. The leader of
the revolt was Arabi Bey. He be-
came Minister of War., Tewfik daa-
missiug a Cabinet docilely.
Faance and England agreed to make
a. naval demonstration at. Alexandria.,
while France was under the Barthel-
enay-Saint Hilaire Ministry; persisted
in this agreement, while France was
under the Garabetta Ministry, and
England, under Granville, apparently
hesitated, and broke this agreement
in May, 1882. when France Loll under
the Freycinet nlinistry. Freyeinet
was remarkably hostile, as soon as he
assumed power, to an armed interven-
tion in Egypt. His reasons were not
clear. He explains now that bis hands
were tied, that Germany, trash from
its triumphant war, objected to
France's action in Egypt, but the
Chamber of Deputies had no conside
erations of this sort, no knowledge of
their influence on Freycioet, and in-
sisted upon his orders to the French
squadron to accompany the English
squadron to Alexandria. The orders
were issued May 20, but they were re-
voked three -times later.
Then Freycinet's policy became a
long, inexplicable retreat. He said he
was ill; he _asked for a European con-
ference; he signed, with Eugland%
Minister, a protocol of disinterested-
ness. Egyptian events went on with
AMAZING SWIFTNESS.
Europeans were measured. at Alexand-
ria in June, and Arabi fortified the city,
Lora Seymour threatened bombardment
unless Arabi's work ceased;Arabi's work
continued, and. July 11, the English
squadron began the bombardment. The
French squadron had quitted Alexan-
dria's harbour the day before. Still
the 14 rench Chamber of Deputies ap-
peared to insist on the policy of
France's intervention. The Chamber
passed, jute" 19, by: 424 votes against
64, credits of $1,600,000 demanded by
Admiral Jaureguilberry, but a week
later, when new credits were demand-
ed, the appropriation was disallowed
The vote of 416 against 75 entailed the
fall of the Froycinet Cabinet.
England. had continued her active
intervention. After the, capture of
Alexandria, Wolseley went to Port
Said with 35,000 men, disembarked Aug. •
20, defeated the soldiers of Arabi at
Tel -el Keler Sept. 13, entered into Cairo •
with his advance guard Sept. 14, ini-
paisenea the pashas and tried them, and
Jan. 11, 11383, the Anglo-French ad-
minietration in Egypt had come to an
England's installation in Egypt was
not accepted. by France without re-
serve, but England's intervention had
been very clearly intimated by Admir-
al Seymour in a letter to the Khedive,
and by Gladstone in a speech in the
House of Commons March 5, 1.883, to
withdraw the troops as soon as order
was re-established. Until 1885 the
Cabinets of Paris and. London had no
consultation on the Egyptian question.
Then
EGYPT NEEDED MONEY
for its expenses in the campaigns with
Hicks, Wolseley, Gordon, and others;
and England suggested that Egypt
should. borrow $45,000,000 with the col-
lective guarantee of Europe. Jules Fer-
ry, the Frenoh Minister, objected. and
England's suggestion was rejected.
Since this success of French diatom,
acy every French Minister has insisted
on England's evacuating Egypt. Frey -
tenet wrote, Sept. 3, to Montebello.
French Ambassador at Constantinople:
"You may assure the Grand Vizier
that we have no intention to occupy
Egypt. When England quits, we
shall be formally opposed to the occu-
pation of Egypt by any power." Lord
Salisbury was at first conciliatory. He
said to the French Ambassador, Wad-
dington, in 1886 : Your people are
gravely mistaken if they believe that
we wish to remain in Egypt indefinite-
ly. We are only trying to find Demme
of withdrawing honourably. We are
decided to evacuate the country." But
France was not kept informed of Sir
Henry Dronanond' Wolff's negotiations
at Constantinople. They failed. He
proposed that England should occupy
the country after evacuating it when-
ever Egypt's security, in England's
judgment, needed England's interven-
tion. Turkey could not accede to
such a scheme of settlement, and Sir
Henry Drummond Wolff quitted Con-
stantuaople without having accomplish-
edRhusmp
isteobjecaeLha, Turkish Ambassador
at London, tried several times in 1890
to 1893 to re -open the controversy, but
Lord Salisbury closed it at each ef-
fort with the simple statement that

Sir Henry Drummond. Wolff's propoeie
tion was '
' • THE ONLY ONE
tbat Englaud could consider. Later, the
conversation of- banns led to a conver-
sation of the French Ambassador with
Lord. Saltebury on the question of Egy-
pt's evacuation, but an argument about
Walls intervened, the Sputter Minis-
try fell, the Ribot Ministry came into
power, and diplomacy about Egypt was
adjourned again. One of the reasons
that Englarid always invokes to justify
its occupation of Egypt is the neces-
sity of not leaving the' country at the•
raercy of the natives, whose rebellion
the Khedive might not halve the
strength to suppress and. of the Sou-,
demean whom the Mahdists eutY ex-
oite easily to a war of fanatic. But
England lias not been successful in
betties against the nIabdists, or, when
it has been successfal in battles, has
not been able to utilize its ,victories.
The victories of Graham and Stewart
vould not prevent the fall of lahar-
toura and the death of Gordon.
Since 1885 Englan.d has made no at-
tenipts against tbe Alarmists, except

virons of Suakixa. Encamped quiet-

fare to Cabinets that recall the Egyp-
tian evacuetion ;question. It servee to
postpone discussion forever, and .biug-
land had no need of an expedition to
Dougola in order to snake this post-
poiseinent exeusal ie. The most plau-
sible explanation for that, expeattion,
which leading Lilerals in the House
of Commons and the English people
apparently condemn, 18 that the Mah-
dists are eot united, and that this is

..DISCIPLINING AN OFFICIAL.

Experiente or tut EnglisallItillt
Pers
The English employes tes of the tele-
graph department in Persia are ex-
empted. by treaty from the payment of
custom -house duties. Theta- goods how-
ever, are often detained by the officials
until an order to admit them duty free
is obtained from the authorities at the
capital. The action of the officers is
dictated by the expectation of receiv-
ing money from the employes, who
prefer to pay rather than wait weeks
for the order, during which delay their
goods are spoiling in the sun. Doctor
Wills, pbysician to the telegraph de-
partment, had been often annoyed by
these customs exactiotas. and one day',
on the arrival of two cases from Eng, -
land, he retorted on the collector. Tho
suecessful retort is described in the
doctor's book, "The Land of the Lion
and Sun."
He had imported photographic appar-
atus for the governor of Shiraz. On be-
ing informed that the two cases were
in the custom -house, he sent a messege
to the customs master asking him to
lea the messenger take them, as he
knew no duty nas payable by the Eng-
lish employes. Back came a rude re-
ply that, unless tbe doctor had an or-
tirt.31z must pay five per cent. on their
Even a personal interview with the
customs master only made him more
curt and exacting.
"Where is your order, sahib? I can
deliver nothing without an order," -but
the man's eye said, "Give me something
and take your boxes."
The dootor argued, but was raet by
the reply: "Of course you can pay the
duty, five per cent(, or I -will take a
twentieth part of the contents in kind."
"I dare you to take a twentieth," an-
swered the doctor.
"Break open the boxes!" shouted the
enra-ged official.
This was done in the roughest. man-
ner; Lhe tin cut open, and parcel after
parc,e1 paed on the ground. A parcel
of albumenized paper was opened and
the official proceeded to count the
quires and Lake his twentieth. The
loafere looking on were delighted:then
the doctor interrupted by announcing
that the things belonged to the gov-
ernor!
The customs master turned pale, and
from command to entreaty, "0 sahile
doctor sahib, do lielp mel On, ashes on
my head! 0 descendant of seven genera-
tions of asses" (apostrophizing himself).
"Sahib, I will never annoy you any
more; but do help mo to repack these
accursed boxes. You have burnt my
father, indeed you have. You will
help ,me."
"No, my friend," answered the deo-
• tor: "you are doing your duty. I evil).
inform %he governor of your virtue;
he will be pleased to possess a 4overn-
raent, servant so just as to detain even
his superior's cases. He will also be
pleased to find the goods unpacked and
even examined. These things are eas-
ily injured, and. I fear you may have to
pay for some.
The official wept. He was afraid to
touch the unpacked parcels. The doc-
tor retired, telling him he would
doubtless hear from the governor. He
did. The customs master was heavily
fined. Whenever the doctor, during
his stay at Shiraz, seat for his boxes
they were given up at onoe.
"Would you not like to examine
them?" the doctor's servant would in-
nocently ask the official.
"Go, eon of a burnt father, no; I
have opened his boxes once, I never
want to do so again," the customs
master would reply.

RENT -DAY ABOLISHED. •

day.

too, said Monsieur Calin.o, but I have
found a way to deprive it of all its ter-
