That is little wifey's exclamatinn, in a very snatchy, pettish tone; but she likes it ali the same, and every now and then the little head will turn in my direction. At the end of a minute the burglars break-in ence more, and she continues - "There have been no less than ten robberies since Christmas, Fred.." "Indeed, my dear.! Then. I shall start a Burglary Insurance Company. Why not? How dues her nose look lio`wC'a?i1 pitaI ; but isn't it a little toot re- trousse ?" "1 love retrousse noses," I responded.

I, for one, had spoken to the in- spector of the police after the upset at our friends', the Wilkinses, and he had very sensibly remarked that they (the police) could not be everywhere at once. " You see, sir," he said, " it' e just this. They plant a robbery, and work accordingly. By a little watching they get to know our times for being in eVety street -for we can't work at random, we must have our regular beats, so as to check the men. Well, sir, they sees a man out of such and such a street, and they knows how long it will .be before he conies back, and goes to work in the meantime." A fortnight slipped by, during which I worked hard_ at the Blue • Belles" - and the burglars rested, for we heard no more of their depredations ; when one day our studio was entered by a brigand. -a swarthy -looking, black -bearded fett low, in olive velvet, very much worn, and a soft sombrero. He looked a regu- lar burglar of the order of the long knife ; but it was only Tom Norris, who had come straight to ns from Spain, after - a six months' stay. _ As thesoft spring evening closed in, a . . we had a grand debauch. Milly brought out the great glass jug, into which was emptied a shilling bottle of claret, and a bottle of soda -water ; vhik, after throw- ing up the great, heavy plate glass sash of the studio window, we sat and smoked the Spanish cigarettes, of 'which Tom lull brought a store. There was so much picture lore to cara vass, that ie was twelve. o'clock before we were all snug in our rooms. Then isaid my catechism, and. we went to bed. . the way, I may as well ex -plain that my 'cateehism is repeated. to Maly every -night ; ancl the questions are some - What of the kind.- " Are you sure the kitchen fire ids quite out? . Did. you turn off the gas? Wee the studio window securedt, _ Has Mary Put out her light ?"' Et cetera, et cetera. Then. I put out our own, and sleeti fell upon our humble roof. . I was just busy paying the Spanish woman for the great, luscious water- melon she had sold me under the walls of the old palace, when a fleece brigand fellow presented - a.° formidable, bell- -mouth trabuco at my head, and bade me give up my cash. T elosedewith hintin a tierce struggle, but it was all in vain ; hershook me and tossecl me as he liked, and all the while he kept on saying- " Fred ! Fred ! Oh, pray do wake : " Eh ? What's the matter ?": " Pinisure there's somebody breaking " Bother !" I was drawing the clothes uptwer my ears, when Milfy began. to sob. " Oh, pray, believe me, dean There is indeed some -one getting in." " Didn't you send me down stairs a month ago because the wind rattled the front door ?" I growled.. " Yes, yes, my dear ; but I'm sure this time." ," So You were when it was only Jane snoring up stairs." • ' "-But, listen, clear, yourself." "o I did when the sweeps tam. e next door at & o'clock." - " But I heard. it at plain as poseible- a heavy, dull noise, and then a sharp snap, like a window -fastening forced back. Pm sure it's thieves.".._ "My dealt"- I said, quietly, you've got burglars on the brain. I shan't get up, so that's flat. Go to sleep; no one will come here." "Then let me get up and get a light - I'll go, dear." " aladarn, hiy manhood'honor-" Bang! here was a thud which shook -our window, and a strange, gurgling noise succeeded it, but smotherecl and muffled, as if some one was being suffo- cated. • "There !" exclaimed Milly, "we shall all be murdered. Pray give me the baby, dear." - "It's only Tom Norris dreaming about bull -fights in ,Spam:" I said thastily drawing on some clothes; but, though I spoke in tones of credence, and could hear some one moving upstairs, I was far from satisfied. Lastly, I struck a light, arid opened the door, just as one was opened over- head. • Anything the matter, old fellow ?" "Anything the matter, old fellow ?" Theseltwo questions crossed on their waytup and down. "1 thought you .were queer !" I thought yott were queer' These remarks, too, crossed; and then we took counsel for a mornent end listen- ed, for all was perfectly still. "Well, I'll go down and see," I said; for that was absolutely necessary, though I ton -fes s I did not like the task. I had hardly. uttered the words before there came up, evideutleefroni the studio, a sound as of the window being rattled furiously, then a- hand was beating at it evidently, and before we could reach the door, the whole house was tilled with a most dismal howl that .sounfled hardly human. And again, in an instant- " Help, help !- Oh, pray, help." "This is a rum start," said Torn Nor- ris, as Innlocked the door and threw; it open ; when we entered together; and I 'held up the light aheve my head. I have seeii strange sights, but that WAS one of the most strange; for there, half-straugled and with starting eyes, was the head Of a man apparently being guillotined by the window sash, which bad fallen right across his neck, holding him securely there, so that it was im- possible to move. I could read. at a glance how it hap- pened, for the broken sash -lines bung down into the room. The fellow had forced. back tile catch, and thrown up the window to get in. '• when, in a most inopportune rament for him, the llnes had snapped, letting the heavy, one - paned sash fall -fortunately for the scoundrel -upon his shoulders, or it must have been his death. As- it was, he hat' Wriggled 'and struggled hard, striving in vain to free himself, till the sash rested upon his neck, where it glided down more tightly; and, as his efforts grew weaker and"his hands impotent to hold it up, he huug there securely trapped, with nothing left, for hirn to do but howl for h elp. Well, you're a pretty sort of a scoundrel, you are," said Tom coolly. For Heaven's sake, sir, let mego. Oh, pray, sir, let me out, and I'li never do so any more, I shall be dead direct- ly." "Anda precious goed. job too," said. Tom.. " We could get on very well without burglars." . ";But, please, sir," said the poor wretch, in stifled accents. "1 ain't took nothtn'.'t How many pals have you got out there?" " Oh, sir, 'strue as goodness, sir, only two sir ; and the cowards cut, sir, as soon as they saw me here -hooked it like a pair o' sneaks, sir ; but only let me get out, sir, please sir, and -I'll blow on 'em both, sir. 041 -h -h !" _ Here the poor wretch uttered such a howl that Iran to the window. No, no, let him be," said. Tom cool- ly. " He won't hurt. I'll see to him. You go and tell them upstairs that we've caught the scoundrel and they need. net be afraid." I ran and performed the task, and came back to find Tom arranging the light so that it fell upon the burglar's face. "Hadn't we better drag hire iii and tie him hand and foot ?" " Yes, presently," said Tom, coolly; "but I havn't done with him yet." "Oh ?" groaned the burglar in a faint voice. "Now, look here, young fellow," said Tom, giving him a sharp cuff on the ear, "stop that TOW, please." " But I can't breathe, governor, 'stele as goodness I can't." , Pr HE HURON .EXPOSITOR. "'Tis rather tight," said Tom, putting his hand to the fellow's neck. "What do you say" he coutinued., turning to me. t` Shall we press the sash down hats', and put him out of misery ?" The poor wretch half screwed his head around to gaze at the speaker. What !" he shrieked,hoarsely, "you cowards ; murder me, would you? and. you call yourselves-" " i "Pow !" The speech wus cutsort by Tom dab- bing a great oily painter's cloth, gag -like, a.ganist the fellow's mouth. "Now, look here," said Toni. "You Make another sound, or so much as move and I squeeze.your throat with that sash Here, stick this book ander edgewise so as to ease his neck a little. There, that will do. Now, hold on, my lad, and be quiet." The fellow clung convulsively with his hands on the sill, his eyes -rolling hor- ribly as they followed Torn. Norris's m.ovements, my curiosity being moved to the utmost. What are you going to do ?" I said. "To do ?" said Tom, catching up a broad brush, and some Indian ink- " take him, of course. What model could ever do that so natnrally? Make your hay, my boy,' while the sun shines." "But that distorted face ! Oh, -come Tom, lot's have in the police and hand him over." "No, my boy -not if I know it. Too great a veneration for nry art." And he went on painting away. "But of what good ?". - - "What good? Why, my dear boy, where are your eyes ? A Spanish male- factor in the garotte ! Titus Oates in the pillory ! Splendid subjects, both of tbem. You keey him quiet, and if -1 get good sketch, I could almost forgive him, and. let him go." I kept the poor wretch quiet, though he groaned -heavily, and must, I ain sure, have -suffered no light punishment. Then Toni painted, away with the rapidity of a finished hand -; but at one and the same itiontept the burglar groaned, faintly- - " I can't stand this much longer, guv'- nor-- pray let me go." And a heavy knock came at the front door. I opened to the police; who had been -summoned by Milly from tue front win- dow, and when two men eutered my studio, their satisfied, grim expression was so telling, that Tom wanted to make another sketch. However, that was not done, and he was satisfied with that which he had matte, helping merrily to drag in our prisoner, while I held up the heavy sash. !.." Well, sir, all I can say is," said the sergeant, as he fitted on the handcuffs to the shivering wretch's wrist, "if you set that there trap to ketch burglars, it was very clever; only," he continued, rather contemptuously,. as he glanced round the bare studio, " I don't see no • bait. i- I think I need say no more than that Her Majesty is to provide for our cap- -tive for soine years to come; and. that Tome -Noir - made a really telling Span- ish picture almost equal to a Philip, of a Spaniel malefactor in the garotte - said picture, nobly framed, being in the gallery of a celebrated eounoisseur, who refused double the sum he gave for it. As for the burglars, their gang was broken up, for our friend did turn Queen's evidence; and. our pleasant dfs- tdct has since enjoyed a' domestic peace which I trust may last. -Once a Weeks How to Cure a Cold. The first time I began to sneeze, a friend told me to go and bathe my feet in hot water and go to bed. I did so. Shortly after, another friend told me to get up and take a cold shower bath. I did that also. Within the hour another friend assured me that it was policy to feed a cold and starve a fever. I had both. So I thought it bestt6 fill myself up for the cold, and let the fever starve a while. I conferred my custom upon. a stranger, who had just opened his res- tauraut on Cortlandt street, near the ho- tel, that morning, paying so much for a full meal. He waited near me in re- spectful silence -until I had finished feed- ing my cold, when he inquired if the people about New.York were much afflic- ted with colds. I told hiin. I thought they were. He then went out and took in. his sign. I started up towards the office, and on the -ay encountered another bosom - friend, who told me that quart of warm salt water would come as near curing a cold as anything in the world. I hardly thought I had room for it, bat I tried it any how. The result was surprising. I believe T threw up my immortal soul. Now, as I give my experience only for the benefit of your friends who are troubled with this distemper, I feel that they will see the propriety of my caution-- ing them against following such portions of it as prove(' inefficient with me, and acting upon this conviction I warn theta against warm salt water it mayebe a good enough remedy, but I think it is rather too severe. If I had another cold in. the head, an_d there was no course left me to !take either an earthquake or a quart of warni salt water, 1 would take my chances on the earthquake. After this everybody in the hotel became interested, and I took all -sorts of remedies -hot lem- onade, cold lemonade, pepper tea, bone - set, stewed quaker, horehound syrup, onions .and loat sugar, lemons and brown sugar, vinegar and.. faudanum, five bottles firbalsa,m, eight bottles cherry pectoral, and LO bottles Uncle Sam's remedy, but all without effect. One of the prescrip- tions, given by an old lady, was -well, it was. dreadful. She mixed a decoction composed of molasses, catnip, pepper- mint, aouafortis, turpentine, kerosene, and. various other drugs, and. instructed. me to take a wineglassful of it every 15 miautes. I never took but one dose; that was enough. I had to take to my bed, and remained there for two entire -days. When I felt a little better, more things were recommended. I was des- perate and willing to take anythine. Plain gin was recommended, then gm arid. molasses, then gin and onions. I took all three. I detected no particular result, however, except that I had. acquired a breath like a turkey buzzard, and had. to change my boarding place. At this new place they suggested a different remedy to any yet tried. A 'sheet bath was re- commended. I had never refund a rem- edy yet, and it seemed a poor policy to comneeuce then; therefore I determined to take a sheet bath, though I had no idea what sort of arrangement it was. It was administered at midnight, and the weather was very frosty. My back and breast were stripped, and a sheet (there appearedto be 1,000 yards of it soaked in ice water was wound around me until I resembled a swab for a columbiad.. It is a cruel expedient: When the Chilly rag touches one's warm flesh, it Makes him start with sudden violence and ,gasp for breath, just as men do in the death .agony. It froze the marl -ow in my bones and stopped the beating of my heart. I thought my tinie had come. When I recovered front this, a friend recommend- ed the application of a mustard plaster to my breast. I believe that would. have cured me effectually if it had not been for young -Clemens. When I went to bed I put the mustard plaster where I could reach it when I should be ready for it. But young Clemens got hungry in the night, and ate . it up. never saw any child have such an appetite. I am confi- deot that he would have eaten me if I had been healthy. -Mar/ Twain.

The cause is deficiency of phosphates, as it is well known that man grows older and - mentally weaker When the nervous system is in- sufficiently supplied with these elements -the sol- idity of the brain -depending upon phosphorized -compounds-and that those foods which are rich- . est in phosphates renovate most speedily weaken- ed brain power and -loss of constitutional vigor.
