He looked tearfully around him. The elitf, the sea, the sky were silent and solitary. Suddenly the moon showed herself be- tween the clouds, and in the luminous space it seemed to Pierre that white spectree passed. Ile looked down at tite expanse of waters before him, and will-o'-the-wisps appeared among the rocks on the littera. Hither and thith- er they pussed, brilliant and lignt, eancehing and reappearing ceaselessly, like the souls of shipwrecked 'marin- ers baunting the breakers on whieh the bodies they had inhabited had per- ished. Fascinated, Pierre was unable to take his eyes from these vaporous phantoms, these wandering lights, and a species of torpor took possasion of him. Murmuring sounds filled his ears. At first confused, they gradu- olly resolved themselves into these words, like a chant: "Come with us, where suffering no longer exists. Die In order to live again, reincarnated in a being of your choice, Come with us!" Pierre made an effort to rid him- self of this hallucination, but without success. He felt himself deprived of force, incapable of making a move- ment as if he were in a state of cata- lepsy. His gaze penetrated the depths of the sky, and supernatuyal accents vibrated in his ears. He thought to himself: "The revela- tion I demanded has been made. Spir- its have manifested themselves to me. I believe in them, I will obey them -but let them cease to possess As if he had pronounced a magic formula the vision disappeared, the chant ceased. He rose and walked along the deserted shore, and he might have thought that he had been dreamiag. But he did not think so, He hoped the visien might be real; he saw in it the delightful end of all his ills. Ascending to the summit of the cliffs, he stood there, took out his pocket -book, and wrote these wards on a card: "My dear Jacques, -I am of no use to others and I am hurtful to myself. I wish to end this. I am going to try the experiment which Davidoff de- scribed to us. You are the being I love most on earth I make you a present of my soul. Live happy through me, and for me." He signed the card with his name, and taking his hat passed the folded Paper between the felt and the silk band. He tranquilly dieested him- self of his overcoat and placed it at the side of the path together with his hat; then with quick steps went down again toward the sea. The coast eurved at this point, forming a little bay, where the waves died away with gentle murmur. A path, running up the side of the cliff, led to a little fishing village. The attention of Pi- erre was attracted by a barque corn- ing slowly toward him, propelled by the breeze that swelled out its low sail. It seemed to be empty; but when it reached the strand sailors made their appearance everywhere. At the same time men sallied froin be- hind the rock, and entering the water went toward the boat. Bales and casks encumbered the stern of the vessel. The painter, interested, notwith- standing his depression, guessed that these were the smugglers of whom the custom -house officer had spoken. He sought this later with his glance among the brushwood behind which he had hidden himself. He had doubtless quitted his post, for there was no sign of Movement on the cliff. The men from the rocks had joined those on board the boat, which they. had already begun to Unload, when a whistle from the summit of the cliff interrupted the operation, The men ran along the beach. The sailors hastened to put out to sea. At the same moment a shot was heard in the silence, and a red flame lighted up the rocks. It was the custom -house officer who thus made known his pre- senee. At anather point near by ahother shot was heard, and shadowy fornts ran up the side of the rock. The men climbed up the path with their bales, the smugglers pushed their boat out into deep Water, Duritig this manoeuvre a salloe fell over- board. Signals were heard.

Here it was that, two months before, Madame de Vignes came to establish herself with her son and daughter, far from the agitation of the Parisian world, in the sweet and salubrious repose of this enchanting country. Left a widow at thirty, after a mar- ried life made stormy by a dissipated husband, Madame de Vigrads had con - secreted herself with exalted intelli- gence and profound wisdom to the education of her children. Jacques, a tali and handsome boy, of an impas- sioned soul and enthusiastie nature, in spite of prudent counsels daily re- ceived, soon gave signs of having Inherited his father's faults. His Water Juliette, four years younger than he, or the new mode of arranging her hair that caused them both this embarrass- ment? Or wits it rather tbis sudden blooming of the chile into the young girl. like a rosebud opening ib the sun- shine? Be that as it may, the painter did not now feel, as on former occa- sions, the epontaneous impulse to give a brotherly kiss to Juliette. It. was necessary for Jacques, who observed them with some surprise, to sny: "Well, what's the matter? Don't you know each other any longer?'' Then 'Mlle. de Vieace took a step forward, Pierre took two, and they found themzelves in each other's urms. The young men bent his face down toward that of hie little friend. She raised herself slightly on the tips of her .tocs, and, with strange emo- tion Lourier saw that she trembled aud turned pale at his kiss. All the evening he remained preoccapied, speaking rarely, as it absorbed by some secret disquietude. Front this time on, in his inter- course with Juliette, he showed him- self more' eircumh speet, watcing every word he said. At the same tiuie his gaze returned continually to the young girl, whomw a eek befere he had treat- ed like a baby. And '10 email not but confess that a rap'.13 traueformation had taken place. in her. lier figure had acquired a flexible ronndness, her Cemplexion a Velvety brilliance.

The commonplace chry- salis had opened, and a trilliant but- 4erfly, which irristibly attraeted the attention, had enterged from it This metamorphosis produced in the mind of Pierre an agitation which he found diffieulty in mastering. He began to dream of things altoge- ther different from those whickup till now had occupied his thoughts, Artis- tic triumohs, the free existence suited to them: the stimulus given to thought by variety of sensation, all that had eenstituted the programme ot his life, in the post, was now regarded by him as ridiculous and conteniptible. Ho thought now that the tranquility of dernestie life, the pewee of tile heart, the even course of days well employed might ecattribute as surely a% these to the achieveinent of great wores, and that there was more probability of in- spiration in regularity of labor than in spasmodic efforts. Marriage seemed to him like a fresh source at which to acquire new vigor. He began to thinlf of settling down, of giving prof 6f wisiom. and he allowed Iriniself to regard Mlle. ile Vignes with a tender- nesa which had nothirg in common with the feeling he had entertained for her in other days. • No one perceived this, but Julleete hereelf.

Was it the long dress had, by a happy contrast, inherited all her mother's serious wisdom. So that if the one was a source of grave anxiety to the mother, the other seemed made to console her for it. With these two, so different from each, other, Madame de Vignes, up to the age of forty, lived a comparatively tranquil life. Jacques, extremely intel- ligent and tolerably industrious, had finished his studies with brilliantsuc- cess. His health, delicate during his childhood, had become stronger as he grew up, and when he attained his majority, he was, with his tall sta- ture, his long blonde moustache, and his blue eyes, one of the most charm- ing young men one could see. He made no delay in abusing these advan- tages. Put in possession of his father's for- tune, he had freed himself from do- mestic restraints by installing himself in a handsome bachelor's apartment, and begun to lead a gay life. He re- membered. however, from time to time to ask an invitation to dinner from his mother. On these occasions he was often accompanied by oue of the companions of his childhood. Pierre Laurier. On such evenings it was a festival at, the villa, and Juliette lavished her tenderest attentions on her brother's friend; who, she imag- ined. rightly or wrongly, had an in- fluence in bring% g about theee re- turns of the prodigal son. The even- ing passed joyously, thanks to the original turn of mind of the painter. And while these hours fled all too rapidly, the youne girl. for Mademoi- selle de Vignes was at that time only fourteen, was ecstatically happy in the society of the two young men. Pierre Laurier with his intelligent and mobile countenance, his piercing eyes, his sarcastic mouth, and thought- ful brow, had for a long time inspire her with fear. But she had soon dis- covered that his strange moods were only the consequence of his artistic preoccupations, and that his mocking accents served to mask the confiding goodness of his heart. in the ',nidst of bis fantastic discourse che could very weel discern his love for his.art, to which he was devotedly attached, and in his passionate sallies she saw flash forth a love for the true and the beautiful. She divined, with singular penetration, that the painter made es- ery possible effort to restrain Jacques his dissipated lite, and that the influence he exercised over him could not but prove favorable. This had made her like him all the more. And then his manner toward this child was like that of a brother. For her he sof- tened the expression of his skepticism, and became innocent and playful to adapt, himself to her. In this he showed Want ot penetra- tion, for Juliette, whose reasoning powers had been early developed, was quite capable of comprehending him. But Pierre persisted in seeing in her only a little girl, tind it was alweye with aatonishment that he heard her, when she allowed herself to be drawn intaethe conversation, put forth in a few timid phrases judgment extraor- dinarily just. He did not give her cre- dit for them indeed; he said to him- self: "This little girl is surprising; she remembers what she hears and brings it in in the right place. In ev- ery woman there is something of the ape, to imitate, and of the parrot, to repeat!" If Juliette, however, had, where art was concerned, a precious faculty of assimilating the knowledge of others, the was altogether herself in the ten- der effusivehess of the thanks she be- stowed on Laurier for his protecting care of her brother. Here she neither imitated tor repeated. It was the very heart of the ehild that spoke, and the Minter, however absorbed he might be by preoccupations of which Mlle. de Vignes was singularly ignorant, amid not avoid being struck by her emotion and her gratitude.

Professor Armbruster asserts that the reason very young children are re- latively immune to infectious diseases Is that their hearts beat so much more rapidly than those of older persons that the blood flows swiftly through the arteries, and this swiftneees of flow makes it difficult for micro-organasms to gain a foothold in the blood Stream. -New York World.

Iron which is actually in service in buildings and similar structures, it is found., often behaves in a rather unex- pected manner as regards its tendency toward corrosion, writes L. C. Wilson In the Engineering Magazine. Those parts immersed in a few inchea of water may corrode with great rapidity, while other parts placed a considerable distance un- der the surface will remain in practical- ly perfect shape almost indefinitely. Simi - tar conditions are found In Darts buried In the ground. The explanation is to be found in the fact that both water and oxygen are necessary to produce cor- rosion. If. therefore iron naafi are im- mersed in water or burled in the ground to a depth greater than that to which oxygen can penetrate. they will be pre- served because the conditions for cor- rosian have not been attained, A little observation will show that "busy" iron, as It has been termed, does not rust as readily as that which is not In service. Perhapa steel rails are, the commonest example of this and it is well known that little or no corrosion is seen In lines on which the traffic is fast and heavy. 1g12 (Min ONE HUNDRED ACRES grain and stock farm -be- tween Burlington and Appleby, Solai brick house, two bank harns, gplendid water, clay loam.

Where Were Ultima Thule and the Lost Atlantis Located? - A. most puzzling geographical mys- tery has come down from ancient time. This is the old qpeetion as to the identity of tatima Thule. It was about 400 B. C., that Pytheas, a citi- zen of Maseila, sailed on his famous voyage. He discovered Albion and then coartinued farther north until he reached a spot whieli he named Ult- tima Thule. What this country was hes never been determined. It may have been Shetland, Norway or Ice- land. ' Another ancient .puezle is that of Atlantis. It is commonly believed nowadays that this vanished continent did once actually lie beyond the pil- lars of Hercules, and there are theor- ies unending conceening it. Some re- gard the Canary Islonds as fragment- ary remains of it, others think that the supposedly loat lana was really America; but; in considering these speculations, it is well to bear in mtnd the feet that the first mention of the pountry was made by Plato, and many echolars are sure that the philosopher merely indulged in an imaginative flight. The solitary evidence that Atlantis ever existed is his reference to it. -Chicago Herald. SICKLY CHILDREN . . . PROMPTLY CURED Easy to Cool Water.
