referred. "1 should thiuk he would call
for us. The Sirene is not in the bay ; she
must be round in the CSITIUS Bheag, to Mr.
Rose will be coming down from Minard."
Kethelienh antimpatione proved correct.
Young ;Roes in paesing Leehgarra House
stopped for a moment to ask if the iadies
lied gone on, and findiog that they were
just &bout ready te set out he waited for
them. And thus it was that the inhabi-
t ott of Lochgarre again witneesed a strange
s ght-tomething far more wonderful than
t 0 opening of a fri e library. They beheld
young Donald of Heimrs acting as mart to
this Englishwoman -this alien -this repre-
seetative of the family thst had drained the
waters out of Heimrs Loch and torn down
the wallet of the old -castle. And not only
that, but when they came along be seemed
to manage everything for her. He drove the
people into the large, long room, and
got the benches filled up. He had two
chsiis placed on the platform, one for Mini
Stanley ana one for Mime Glen
dinning; , and then, standing by the
bide of the baintighearna, proceeded to
speak for her, and to explain the conditions
attaching to this bequest.
And here -once more Mary, sittiog there
silent and observant, may have been. :Amick
by the curious directness and simplicity of
speech. Concise, explicit senteuces, they
seemed to accord welt with hit own bearing,
which wee distinctly straightforward, in-
trepid, resolute. Indeed so little of effort,'
no little of talking for effect wee there about
this address, that once or twice, and in the
most natural way in the world, lee turned to
Miss Staeley and asked for information on
certain point,. Finally, he told them that
Miss Stanley wished for no ceremony, ()pee-
ing or otherwise; they were merely to take
possession, and. they would now be left to
examine the reeources of the building, in-
cluding the duplicate catalogues of the
library. "Three cheers for Donald Ross of
fleimra!" called out u voice, and a cap was
twirled to the roof.
"Don't make a fool of yourself, Gillie
-Ciotach 1" said Ross, with a quick frown,
and then he went on calmly: "It is Mies
Stanley's express wish that there should be
no formalities whatever, otherwise I should
have proposed a vote of thanks to her for
her very great kindness and thoughtfulness;
However, that is not to be; and the beet
way you can show what you think of her
munificent gift is by making ,a good me of
it, and taking every care of it." He turned
to the baintighearna. "1 suppole that is
about all I have to say, Miss Stanley ?"
"Yes, I think Eo ; thank you so much 1"
ehe oiled, in rather a low voice, for she was a
trifle self conscious before all thme People.
Then she rose. He btepped down from
the platform and led the way along the
hall. There was some covert c'apping of
hands and stemping of feet, but the Gillie
Ciotaoh had been snubbed into silence; and,
indeed, the majority of those end and
weatherworn countenences remained Stolidly
indifferent, as if they hardly knew what
was happening around them. Ross opened
the door for his two eompeuions and follow-
ed them out irito the goleen &ear afternoon;
the villagers were left to overhaul at their
leiaure this new possession, and become
familiar with its opportuities.
But no eooner were those three out in
the open and 'by themselves than Mary
Stanley's manner underwent a complete
change. She had thrown elf that planforin
constraint; she was profuse in her express-
ions of gratitude! her eyes were shining
with pleasure.
How can I ever eufficiently thank you?"
said she. "I could never have got through
It by myself -never ! And of coulee they
will remember everything you said: any
word` of yours is sill -important with them. I
am a stranger. I an suspected. But when
you are on my side all goes well: And now
that this serious businees has been got over,
I feel as if I bad earned a holiday for the
rest of the day," she continued, in a very
radiant and light-hearted fashion. "What
shall we do, Kathchen ? Can't you devise
something? Can't you devise some wild
escapade -something terrible - something
unheard of ?"
" The Lady Superier of Lochfarra," said
Donald Ross, "is Much too distinguished a
person to indulge. in wild escapades."
"At least," said she, turniug- to him -
and they were now on their way to Looh-
garra House-" it would be very hard if we
three, having i so successfully got through
the solemn duties and labors of the day,
were to separate now. Don't you think we
sin entitled to a little relaxation? Now, tell
me, Mr. Rees, where are going at this mo-
ment? Back etoathe Sirene, are you not?
And you Will be dining alone? And after
that a book and a Pipe in the solitary sialeon
-isn't that ,about how you will pass the
evening ?"
You have guessed pretty near the truth,
Miss Stail1ey,1" said he, with a smile.
" Ihen," said she boldly, "why should
we separate? Come in and dine with us.
Give bp your book, and let two frivolous
creatures talk to you. We will allow youto
go away at ten, and it -will be a clear star-
light night -you will have no difficulty in
finding your way round to the 'Chinni'
Bheag. Now, will you ?"
" Indeed, I shall be most happy," said he,
without an instant's hesitation; and again
Mias Stanley's clear gray -green eyes think -
ed him -as they could, when she had a mind.

And really this proved to be a most joy--
ono and careless evening, without .an atom
of restraint or reserve; the little group of
friends, brought together in that far -away
corner of the world, developedu very frank
and formal intimacy; the time sped swiftly.
Mary was especially merry -hearted and au-
dacious, occasionally'betraying new moods
of wilful petulance. and then again becom-
ing suddenly bonest,ss much as to say,
"No, don't believe thee of me; it was only
mischief." Even eKathchen was less de-
murely observant than usual; she had 'be-
come a little more acciistomed to the fieme
of those coal -black eyes; moreover, the
young man had a wionieg smile. He was
no longer the proud and austere person
whom she had regarded with a little anxiety
and even awe, Implacable,she was no long-
er ready to call him: surely one who could
laugh in that frankly geme-hurnored way was
not likely to prove revengeful and unforgiv-
ing? As for his being haughtytand imperi-
ous, she noticed one small circumstance -
that ever and again, amid this familiar and
sprightly intercourse he checked himself a
little, and would address Mini Stauley with
something almost of deference. It was as if
he were saying, "It is exceedingly kind of
you to treat me in so very friendly II fashion;
but stell-dtill-you are the Lady Superior
of Lochgarra-and I am your guest, and
sometimes he 'teemed to veil his eyes a little
-those burning eyes that might unawares
convey too much.
The lightning moments fled ; ten o'clock
came ere he knew. Indeed. it was half an
hour thereafter before he chanced to look at
his wstch, and instantly he rose, with a
quite boyibh confusion on his clear, finely-
cut"W
fachen do you go back to Heinira ?" said
Mary to him -the two young ladies having
s000mpanied him out into the hall.

which ribs the comfort and peace of the
household , for an hour. Many a WOMILII is
addictedit to this, sort of temper and calls it
"her nerneie" and considers herself the most
devoted 'Wife aud mother in the world. Yet
if she isi obliged to delay her dinner for any
member i of the family, if she is called from
one tas* to perform another, if the children
scatter ,itheir playthings, or leave their
echoolbdoks in the parlor, she indulges in
euch petulant Ecoiding that a gloom settles
over the whole household. She would con-

to conttol her irritable temper is a task too

Thett were very pretty, and there was
apparefttly five or six years' difference in
their eges. As the train pulled up, the
youngeet girl blushed, fiatteried her nose
nervoyMy against the window, and drew
back iti )(lions smiles as a young man came
dashing' into the carriage, shook hands
cordially and tenderly, insisted on carry-
ing hl valise, magazine, little paper bundle,
and sould probably have carried her had
she permitted. The passengers smiled as she
left, and the murmer went rippling through
the ear, "They're engaged.'
The other girl sat looking nervously out
of the window, and once or twice gathered
her parcels together as though she would
leave, yet seemed to be expecting some one.
At last he came. He bulged into the door
like a house on fire, looked alleng the seats
until his manly gaze fell on her upturned,
eeepectant face, roared, "Conte on 1 I've
been waiting for you on the platform for
fifteen minutes 1" grabbed her bavket, and
strode out, of the carriage, while she fol-
lowed with a little valise, a, bandbox, a
paper beg full of lanai,a birdcage, a glass
jar of jelly preserves, and an extra shawl.
And a crusty -looking old bachelor in the
farther end of 'the carriage croaked out, in
unison with the indignant 'mike of the pas-
sengers, "They're married."'

Paying for the Privilege.
Bishop Ooze, in his leoture at the Young
Men's Chrietian Association, in Buffalo, ac-
cording to the Courier of that city, told tide
story :
'When I was a rector of a church in Bal-
timore I used to see a dear old lady In the
garb of a Quaker very often in the congre-
gation of the church. One of the wardens
said to me, ' Mrs. - ie a great friend,: of
yours.'
'1 am glad to hear it,' I said.
Yes,' said the warden; she said to me,
"1 love to hear your pastor preach, but I
should like him so much better if he did not
receive money for it."'
Bue,' said the warden he pays $20,-
000 a year for the privilegeof preaching
-to us.'
'‘ Does he indeed? and how so?' asked the
old lady.
e Well, we both were educated at the same
time we are about of an age, and I earn
$25,600 a year at my profession, while he
only receives $4,000.'
'1 tell thee said the dear old Quaker, I
shall always I:ear him hereafter With a great
deal more pleasure.'"

ground where her own could lie beside
them.
The warden of one of our State peniten-
tiaries where criminals are confined for a
long term of yearn and often for life, was
asked if they were as a rule visited regular-
ly by their friends:
"No," was the reply, "they are usually
men who have been a scourge and disgrace
to their families. It is a relief to be rid of
them. Their friends, their wives, and even
children, make one or two perfunctory visits
at first, and then give them up. In the
course of a year or two, as a, rule, they are
as forgotten as if they were in their coffins,
except by their mothers.
"Their mothers always come, and keep
coming, and trying to influence me in their
behalf. No matter how black -dyed in crime
a ruffian may be, his mother will know some
good point to tell ma of him. She never
wholly loses faith in him."

A Prayer for King George.
Rev. Jacob G-, a Gerrnan and a stanch
Republican, was pastor of a &turd: in
Philadelphia a few years previous to the
Reyolution, The time honored custom of
praying for the king Was not observed by
the worthy minieter, and a number of his
parishioners waited on the minister and re-
quested him to pray for the king on the
next Sunday,which he very readily promised
to do. Accordingly, on the next Sabbath
he introduced the following petition into
the service: "0, Lord! hear us vile ve
pray for de King George and all da kings of
de earth. Grant devise' keen conviction,
sound conversion, and give dem all short
livei and happy death -0, and take dem all
home to Maven, and let us never have any
1 more kings vile the world etands."
It is needless to say that the worthy
Teuton minister was excueed from praying
for the king after that comprehensive pray-

Introducing a Lectiirer.
One of those English customs which
would be more honored in the breach than
in the observance is that of presentiug a
lecturer to the audience by a chairman.
This unnecessary presiding officer, having
read up on the subject, "rises to say a few
words of introduction," and sometimes an-
ticipates some of the lecturer's best points.
In an English village a loquacioue squire
and a garrulous rectoe both introduced a
lecturer, and their "few word." occupied
nearly all the time which had been allotted
to the lecture. The lecturer, however, was
wpm: to the occasion. He spoke about
twenty eninutee, and then, looking at his
watch, said:
"Ladies and gentlemen, I must now
leave that I may catch my train, but I will
ask your permission before I depart to sug-
gest for your consideration an occurrence
which took place on board a small Ameri-
can vessel.
"Tho captain, the mate, and a passenger
dined together. A rolypoly pudding was
pliteed on the table, and the captain said to
the passenger:
"Stranger, do you like ender'
"No."
"Oh, don't yer ? Me and my mate does,"
end the captain cut the pudding in two,
giving one end to the mate and appropriat-
ing the other." The audience -saw the point,
and heartily applauded.
An Englishman, a temperance lecturer,
was invited to speak on total abstinence.
Being nobody in particular, he was placed
last on the list of speakers. The chairman
also introduced several speakers whose
t
names were not on he list, and the audi-
ence were tired out when he said, "Mr.
Bailey will now give us his address.'

The Great Ocean Free for All.
The race for social prestige and the prizes
of the Four Hundred seems always out of
place and an impertinence beside the impar-
tial, grand, relentless ocean wavesetbat

known and unknown alike. And what a
Wearing Mourning.
Despite all protests to the contrary,
mourning will be worn as long as the
world lasts, for it is the only outward evi-
dence of grief one is permitted to make, as
well as 'being a shield from the untimely
gaiety of the passing stranger, who, were it
not for such a garb, could not be expected
to know diet his mirth grated on the feel-
ings of a °hence acquaintance.
Mourning is the most expensive apparel,
yet the poorest families, though unable to
afford it, stint themselves in other ways in
order to show to the world the reipect they
hied for the dead and the sorrow they ex-
perience for their loss. The. etiquette of
mourning is entirely apart from any senti-
ment in the matter, for one's own feelings
rather than a social circle should govern the
length of time the sable robes should he
worn. Widows wear deep Mourning, con-
sisting of woolen stuffs and crape, for two
years. Children wear the same for parents
for one year, and then lighten it with trim-
mings of silk. Complimentary mourning is
black bilk with crape. Second mourning,
which follows the allotted period of deep
mourning, is, of course grays, black and
white, all white and heliotrope.
In France mourning is governed absolute-
ly by the nearness of the relative, but in
America, with the depth of hue optional
with ourselves, things sometimes become
complicated through the assumption of the
very deepest mourning for distant relatives
or connections by law, leaving no deeper ex-
pression when a parent, a husband or wife
or child dies.
For one year no formal visiting is done,
net' is there any gaiety in the house.
Friends should call on a bereaved family
within a month, not expecting, of course, to
see them. Notes expressive of sympathy
are most grateful to those afflicted, as they
call for no recognition, yet- tell of a kindly
thought. -Philadelphia Times.
World's Fair Accommodation.
Visitors to the World's Fair who are
infirm, crippled or simply weary, can do
their sight seeing in the various buildings by
making ilia of rolling chairs. A
company was granted- the right,
some time ago. of operating
such vehicles, and by May 1 will have 1,600
young men, chiefly college students, in its
employ to push them. The cbarges to visitors
for making use of these chairs will be as fol-
lows: For -chair carrying one person, 75 cents
per hour, 40 cents per half hour; two per-
sons, $1 per hour, 50 cents per half-hour;
one p-erson, when chair is taken for a period
of not less than ten hours, $6 for the first ten
hours and 40 cents an hour for the time over
San hours ; marrying two persone, $8 for the
'first ten hours and 75 cents an hour after

At What Did They Laugh.
"In an art exhibition of London," wrote
the Shah of Persia in the journal he keeps
during his last visit to Europe, " we were
looking at a painting representing an ass.
asked: 'Whitt is the price of 'this paint-
ing?' The director of the exhibition, who
was a corpukut man with a white beard
looked up the price -list and said: 'One
hundred English pounds.' which are equal
to 250 Persian toman. I answered 'The
price of a live ass is at the most five pounds;
why should this be so dear when it is only
the picture of an ase?' The director re-
plied : Because it causes no expense and
neither eats hay nor oats.' I seed Al-
though it causes no expense, it CAII on the
other hand, neither carry burdens nor give
a man a ride.' We both laughed."

says:
A young wife who was at a famous sea-
shore resort wrote a breezy description of
the situation to a friend:
"You cannot imagine how homelike it is
here. At the hotel with us is the man we
buy our groceries from, and his family is
with him. At a place across the street is
our butcher and his wife. The man who
comee to us with vegetables drove past this
morning in a yelrow dog -cart. The woman
I got chickens from in the market is at a
hotel on the next sciaare. Tom spoke to a
man this morning who, he says, is a police-
men on our street, clown hero on an excur-
sion. My dressmaker is here taking hot
blahs, and Tom declares his tailor is making
love to her. A man went past the hotel
singing last night, and Tom laughed and
said, • That's the man who drives the wagon
of the man I get Apollinaris water from.'

Blue Glass Spectacles for Cows.
A remarkable gory comes all the way
from Moravia to the effect that all the cows
in that pert of the country are"bumped
In the rail fence corners, chewing their
cads with great blue spectacled fastened
before their eyes." It seems that the ground
in that country hail been covered with snow
since the latter part of October. Nearly
every day has been clear and cold, the re,
flection of the sunlight from the snow be-
ing very disastrous to the eyes of both man
and beast. Thousands of cattle went en-
tirely blind before the attention of the gov-
ernment director of agriculture was called
to the fact. That gentleman, Dr. Verin-
court, recommended blue spectacle glasses
set in wooden or wire frames, and the re-
sult is that thousands of cows are now
roaming about over the Moravian pastures
