Jack had given up his tense alti- tude of listening for those ligba steps that never came, Which indeed he had forbidden to come, bat that he had expeoted all the same, with a long- ing that turned to aching as the days went by. He had seat Blize.beth a message that he would not see her at anyatime, that the earison officials would not ad- mit her, no matter haw loudly and tong she beat for admission, and she had not beat so `much as once and softly—and. the, terrible silence filled his ears, and heart, and soul, as he. sat there day after day, and week after week, alone. But Elizabeth was very proud, and once ha had shut the door against her, no prayer for the reversal of his sentence would ever cross her Lips. The woman who claraors in vain, -in- flicts on herself a double pang, Lor the Loss of self-respect is even more bit- ter than the refusal of what she de- mands. And Jack could not call her back. In these long days of loneliness he was living over again the time when he and his little Elizabeth had dwelled to- gether in a world out of which every one else was shut, save Daffy; when he was as sure of her love and' faith- fulness as hie own; wheu his know- ledge of her goodness, for who could live with and doubt her? made hire think tenderly of all women for her sake, and in the best sense of the word she had made his house a home, and shrined him deep in the purest heart he had ever known. Wbatsoever thing is defaced and broken was it not clean and whole once? There must be a beginning to all moral defilement; but looking back, Jack could find no lightest sign to mark the decadence of all things love- ly, and of good repute, in Elizabeth. lie thought of her always now as one thinks of somebody dead, for the new woman who had risen in her stead was not Elizabeth, and he knew her not. He wondered if her mother's love had. gone by the board with the rest —yet in tne same breath hoped that Daffy was taking good care of her, Daffy, whose firm conviction it was that she needed a great dea.1 of taking care of, and whom he consequently led over crossings, to his own imminent danger, and hers, very often. He was eiso most particular to explain every- thing said by the shopmen who served her, and his high, clear little voice often brought some amusement, and a good deal of gentle nommiseration down on the head of Elizabeth, whose chief misery in her misfortune was the eonstant reminder of it she got whenever she moved abroad or eaw new faces. Daffy did not konw this, but he secretly felt himself a much older and more experienced person than his mother, a.nd never failed, on going out, to tell the servants "to take care of mother," as if she would be in serious jeopardy until he came home again.

But strange and true as it was, that the moment ukase little feet came into the house, however far away, Elizabeth always felt and knew they were there, and she could always hear his voice a long way off, though a wall seemed built round her to ordinary sounds. Night and day Jack thought of these two—his only two in the world—a.nd sometimes he wondered if they prayed for him now, . . . they did, they must, just as his own lips framed the same prayer each night that they had done in the days of his happiness. One prayer he had added, that on the day of the trial he should not look up to behold her face. The sight would unman him, and he required all his strength; still, if he had been able to endure what he had done, his back would grow to the burden of the rest. If, indeed she were there, he wonder- ed. which -face she would wear ?—the one that he had known and worship- ped, or the other, all disfigured and branded, as it had been that awful morning, with the terrible stamp of —but his thoughts seldom got further. Often, too, he thought of Barry, the fast friend of over twenty years, wkuo had remained his friend tong after bothhad outstripped the ephemeral friendships that bad strewn their paths; and wild= he had taken into his house as carelessly and securely as if he were his other self. True they had met but seldom. Bar- ry dined each night at his club, and their morning hours of going out were not the same. It had, moreover, been an undeestood thing that there was to be no running in and out of each other4s rooms, and a message was al- ways to be sent to know if one pould receive the other. This rule had al- ways been adhered to, and Jack could scarcely have told how it was that such meetings had become rarer and naore rare—only one day, whenEliza.- both was sitting working apaat, too fax off to hear their voices, shut in within those walls of deafness in whicli she sometimes sadly dwelt, and in whose coldness she must have peri- shed, but for the Love that surrounded her, jack caught a look on Barry's face, quite unconscious, but betray- ing such a hunger of love and devo- tion as flashe& upon bine an altogether disagreeable and unexpected revela- tion. The look was gone in a moment; the next, Barry presented the spectacle of an ordinary young man iriteritly Watehin.g a young woman in the net of threading her needle, threading it, too, as, if she, loved it, as Elizabeth las- aurally dia. Jack had pondered long over the circumstance, loth to put into words what he had seen, arid suppoeing Eliza- beth to be perfectly unconscious, he elt, it impossible to speak to her on the subject. And Barry? Ile thought he had not known his friend's heart all these years for nothing. Then a few weeks liag gone by, and sudden1 without the Warning of a niOnient, h come the eatastrophe. tie saw before him now that frilk,d' ace, VIVid in deall4 and in hkears desolate voice rang oat, "His , wen down while, it was yet day," with all the ,strength of his soul he woad wisa his friend back, and that one lightuieg moment of crime Un- done. In fanoy Barry once more walked be- side. him, as in those constant days of compauionship when they, and the world, were young, and their hearts were fresh as their hopes were high; when they mapped out their lives in glorious 1a.slaioa, and vowed to make themselves known by all manner of brilliant deeds, and great thoughts, and now—Barry bad died before ever attaining to frame, and Jack's only 'grand achievement, as he thought it, was wheni he persuaded deaf little Elizabe,th to be his wife. Would he have loved her so roach if Nature had extended her cruel stepmother's touch on the „girl's ears to the lines of her face and figure? I trow not. Idea will do a great deal for what pleases them, but nothing at all for that which pleases them not. And deafness is an unbeautiful thing, end needs much Love and patience in those who have to bear with it. Poor Elizabeth used to Say • that deaf people were sent into the world to practice patience themselves, and discipline others to patience also; but Jack would, not have changed her for the most perfect person, mentally and physically, in the world. But that was then, and this was not. And on the inerrow his cell would be empty, and he standing in the dock. CHAPTER IX. "0, gentle Maurice, AEI my bairn, 0, still hini with the keys!" "He winna still, fair lady, Let me do what Iplease." A message from Elizabeth to Jack was evennow outside his door, though he did not know it, and indeed, he seemed to come out of a stupor, in which he had heard no sound of locks unbarred, to see a light figure all in white, save where the gold of his hair was shining, come dancing in, and flutter into his arms, with an ecstatic cry of "Daddy!" Jack thought himself mad at last, but here was no visionary touch, only a very real pair of loving arms throt- tling his neck, acid soon he realized that this was indeed his own little child in the flesh, and nestling his head into the soft neck and curls, could have wept. for the jjoy and anguish of the moment. "Daddy," said the boy, "my own, dear daddy, won't you cdme along 'ome with me, and see mother ?" Jack did not answer, only pressed his face down ()loser, and smoothed with hungry hand the soft head lying so close with lips warra against his throat. 'Poor mother,' said Daffy, with a catch in his voice, "she's growed quite finn, and said she was so welly tired she couldn't jest come out to -day." 1 Jack's broad chest was heaving, he was struggling for the mastery of him- self, and when he had got it, he un- loosed Daffy's arms, and, put hina back so he might kiss him. : "How do you like my new house, Daffy ?" he said. , "0—oh!" eaid Daffy, looking round with much interest, and speaking in the wise little voice he usually af- fected, when not quite sure that he knew his subjeet, "there's lots of room for bat and. ball. Shall us 'ave a little game, Daddy ?" "Another time, my boy," said Jack, steadying his voice; "but who brought you?" "Rose She's outside with such a funny old man—got such lots and lots of keys! I wanted to bring the mouse," he went on; '"he's so full of tricks, and growed such a rediklous person V' He paused to laugh indul- gently. But mother thought he might get out—and she have cared for him SO arid fed him. every day." Daffy looked exquisitely cared for, and a very picture of health and hap- piness as he sae on his father's knee. He had been born healthy, and pass- ed triumphantly through all the love- ly gradations of a joyous. babyhood to the sweet dignity and majesty of four years old—the most delicious age, pro- bably, to his mother, in a child's young life. Jack felt the soft warmth of the dear little boy like the blowing of a soft wind on a poor wretch scrammed with cold. and hunger, and for awhile he only held him fast, saying no word. But presently; "Did mother send any message?" he said. , " 0, course!" said Daffy, holding up to his father's gaze a face upon which the very paint of Elizabeth was set, " lots and. lots of kisses, and thanks with cuxnplements 1" " Thanks with cu.mplernents," was Daffer's invariable formula for extra fervid love. "Daffy'," said. Jack, holding the lit- tle fellow away from. hine "are you quite sure? Can you remember if it was only one kiss or heaps and heaps?" Daffy knitted his soft brows, and put the best part of a tiny kid glove in his mouth, to assist raemory, but at last committed hinaself to the bold assertion that hie mother had said thousands—not beeps and heaps. Jack sighed. , "I've got a message for mother," he said. "Will you tell her, Daffy?—now tey and remember it—that I read in a paper the other day that some things are gold how to make people hear—and I should like her to buy some. P11 write the address down, and put it ii your bosom, and you'el be sure and give it her ?" "0' course," said Daffy with an im- portant air. "New ears for poor Moth- er—tatt she always hears me." Jack wrote the address down—,just that, and tIO Mere—and pinned it against hte bore soft, warm neek.

"Ansi mother," he said, with trent- bling voice, "does mother play and have games with Daffy now "Mother tries," said the boy, the corners of his lips Jailing, "but she says—mother says she. don't fink she's quite so young as she used to be."

"1 wish," he added, wistfully, "he could take mother's pain away, too, she says it aches, just here," e.nd he spread his hand out expansively above his smart sash. ' The door opened wider; Jack clasped the boy in a last embrace, and gat him down. - "Tell your mother," he said, "your mother---" In the distance was heard Rose's voice calling to the child. A sudden impulse seized Jack; he strode to the door, and there, just be- hind the gaoler, stood the French maid., her face white in the dusk, as she cow- ered away at sight of her master. What did that look ansi attitude mean —of what was she in fear? d. ,poor wretch who might beat his own life out against his prison bars, but who had no power to harra her or any oth- er now "Your mistress is well, Bose ?" he said.

"Time's up," said the gaoler not un- kindly, aled Daffy recognizing him in- tuitively as an enemy, clung round his father and hid his face in his knees. Did those little tender hands raake Jack think of those others that he had so remorselessly unbound a few short weeks ago? " I know not—but when Daffy was borne away sobbing bitterly by the woman whom jack felt he could no longer trust, with a newly added'pang the husband realized how utterly alone and friendless hie little Elizabeth was now.

It is of moderate size; has bright yellow flowers, which grow in tufts, and leaves of a dark green color, its fruit is a pod or capsule, stuffed with a velvet-like ,padding, in which lie snug- ly imbedded two or three seeds resem- bling small black beans. 'The natives dry these seeds, and then eeduce them to powder. When adna.baistered in judicious doses the powder produces effectvery much like those arising from the inhalation of nitrous oxide, or, as it is called in common parlance ' laughing gas." The person to whom the powder is given shouts, laughs, sings, dances, and acts in a ludicrous way. Hes icaer- riment lasts fe.a about an hour, then he quietly falls asleep. After several hours he awakens, and has not the slightest recollection of anything that he said or did while under the influ- ence of the powder. It is said that an overdose of laugh- ing -plant powder is likely to cause serious results, but a small quantity does no harm.. The powder is sweet, and it is a common joke to put a lit- tle -of it into the coffee of some Unsas- tpecting person, in order to have a laugh a.t his expense. ...

It Is Thaf With \Vlach .efrican SaVageS Lblp Their Arrows. During his last visit to East Africa Prof. Robert Xoeh procured some of the poison.eci arrows and. the poison used therewith by the W.akamba peo- ple, a primitive race settled. between Xenia and Kilimanjaro. Prof. Brit g- er, the head of the Institute for Infec- tions Dieea.ses, has been making exper- iments with Waltanaba poison, which is extracted from plants, and has corae to the conclusion that it is a heart poison. In cold-blooded animals it causes gradual diminutio4 of the heart's pulsations, and finally heart failure. In warm-blooded animals symptoms of poisoning appear within 10 or 15 tolinutes after absorption of 'the poison, breathing becomes diffi- cult, cries of pain are provoked, ceamps occur, and death speedily en- sues. Prof. aBrieger has found that the active prixicipal of the poison is ai crystalline body, of which so infinite- simal a quantity as 0.00005 grain causes the deatb of a guinea pig weighing 'AO grams within 20 minutes. It is believed in scientific circles here that the investigation of the Wakaraba poison is of the highest medical importance, as, it will probab- ly prove valuable as a drug having a specific action on the heart. It is hop- ed .that the experiments will ultimate- ly show the W.akanaba drug to be as useful in the treatment of heart dis- ease as quinine has proved in fevers and malaria. THE PAARDE KRAAL.

This has reference in the first place to the Boers who under Andries Pretorius defeated Dingaanathe Zulu king, on. the Ilinhtatoozi river, De- cember 15, 18e8. Dingaan had raided the settlements of the whites, and with only 400 mounted Boers Pretorius went to get satisfaction, Thee encountered it Zulu array of 12,000 men and after an obstinate erigageuaent totally de- feated -them, the Zulus leaving 3,000 dead on the field.. • When preparing for the rising in 1830 every Boer who paesed into Kru- geradorp vowed that he would only retrace his steps homeward a free man In commemoration of his oath, each one took up; a stone and threw it on a certain spot, By the time,the. commandeering was ended, the pile of stones had assumed coloseal propor- tious11 remained, until the close of , the war, when the Boers erected, the monument, associating it with the ' victory over the British at 1V1a,juba, and as commemorating the indepen- denoe o 1081."
