'Now, Mrs, Piddiford," insisted Mme. Debries,y, impressively, to her landlady, "I give you your choice -either that say - age brute 'coves the house, or I will." "I'm sure, Mme. Debrisay, ma'am, it would vex nae sore to see you leave. Such a quiet lodger, and sure money. I will speak to Mr. Rigden, ma'am, and see if he can send the dog to the country. He is a good lodger, toobut that taken up with the dog I don't know he will ever part with it." "I neither know nor care," said Mine. Debrisay, solemnly. "I give you two days to expel the venomous cur, at the end. of which time, should no remain, consider I have given notice." "Dear, deari why will gentlemen fancy these wild beaste?"annost whimpered the landlady. "Gentlemen!" repeated. Mme. Debri- say, with a fine acorn, as she regulated her cap, "To think how nicely settled I am, with two such first-rate lodgere, and then to think of being upset by a nasty dog. Ah! get. out with you!" This to the audacious animal, who dar- ed to present himself on the threshold with an inquiring look. A violent flick of the duster she had brought, in antici- pation of something to be "wiped up," again routed Dandle. "Be sure you explain matters to Mr. Rigden *le night!" said Mme. Debrisay, with emphasis, "and let me know the result. Either he send e away his do - or goes away with his dog -or Mise Craig and I go, this day week!" tragic- ally. "I will, ina'am-I will!" sniffed the lit- tle landlady. "I foresee a heap of trou- ble. Mr. Rigden -he is that obstinate and touchy!" "And you will find I can be touchy, too, when I stand on m rights. Now, Mrs. Puddiford, I wish to hear no more about this until you bring me your de- cision to -morrow." The landlady retired, pressing the cor- ner of her duster to her eyes, while the yelps of the dog were heard from be- low, where he was being tied up. "I think, dear Deb, I saw the very net whiale would go with the ground of this shone'," said Mona, examining it care- fully, "at Peter Robinson's; then I could lay the broken pattern over it ,and copy It with black filoselle."

I am not always thinking of the past when I seem in a brown study -I am sometimes speculating on matters that puzzle me, which are probably beyond. me, still, they have a fascination." "What are they, cherie?" "Oh, there are a geat variety of puz- zing things. One, for instance, is the awful risk of marrying. It seems to me that the rarest of all qualities in human nature is constancy -yet marriage is for life! Your own character and taste may change several times before you are forty-five or fifty ,and how cart you still love the same person?" "Ali! don't talk like a heathen, child. True love grows with your growth, and always sees the same charm in the thing it loves -unless, indeed, that thing proves faithless and cruel; ev'en then, some natures cannot be choken off?' "I cannot understand," returned Mona. "1 understand forgiving a great deal - even faithlessness and change -for the sake of the old love; but to love anyone who was bidifferent to ine seems im- possible." "Stick to that, my dear; it. will marry you safe through a good deal. But 1 don't think you know much of love, or you'd know, as I do, that it hopethall things and endureth ali thinge."

As far AS 1 tan see, the one unpardonable sin of life is poverty." "Of life, Mona ? No, of society. Yes, life is world-wide, society is a corner - often a shabby corner. Faith, dear, you and I are a brace of philosophers; only we are too wise to have a theory. Here's dinner; I hope It will be more digestible than your doctrines." The next day was stormy, with heavy thunder showers, and Mine, Debrisay would not hear 'of Mona taking a jour- ney to town in search of materials to repair the damage done by the deunqu- ent Dandle. Moreover, a council of war had to be held. Mr. Rigden was observed that morning to draw his umbrella from the stand with a degree of violence which upset all the other umbrellas and sticks, and "banged" the front door with a reek.- lessnese which was in itself a easus belti. Soon after, Mrs, Puddiford appeared with a rueful countenance. "Well'in, I have spoken to Mr. Rig- den. He is noways inclined to hear reason!" "Ire wouldn't be a man if he did, on - less it were on his own side!" ejaculat- ed madame. "He spoke most disrespectful," con- tinued the landlady, beginning to play with tbe corner of her apron. "He said he would stand no more d -----d nonsense (them was his words, ma'am), and was sorry he had just begun a month, as he would have to pay for it (he is a month- ly tenant); that he would look out for rooms, as soon as ever he found another place, free from cantankerous old wo- men, he'd leave, if he forfeited a fort- night's rent, I am sorry to any he so far forgot himself, but them was his very words, ma'am." "I assure you, Mrs. Puddiford, it is not of the slightest consequence wheth- er Mr. Ridgen considers me old and. can- tankerous or not. I congratulate you on getting rid of a troublesonae, ill-bred inmate!" "Well, that may be; but it is hard to lose six pounds a month!" "Very well, Mrs. Puddiford, if you pre- fer it, we will turn out and leave Mr. Rigden to make a menagerie of your house!" will look out for you, and praise you up to the skies as the best of landladies, which you are!" e sure,1 am ma'am, you are very good, and I believe you are lucky!

"I am sure," added Mme. Debrisay, sotto voce, when Mrs. P. had gone, "I hope, I'll succeed, for if her rooms re- main empty she'll think I have lost her six pounds a month, and 'there will be , wigs on the green'!" "I hope nothing disagreeable will arise for I have grown quite at home here!" t exclaimed Mona. "That man had a nice little room above stairs for his lumber. If I could I get her a good lodger at six pounds a month without it, she might let you have it for a song," said Mme. Debrisay, reflectively. "Ali, Deb, you are a profound scheme erl" • • e * The next day was bright and fren af- ter the thunder, and Mona having given a lesson in Gloucester Place early in the afternoon, went on to Regent's Circus to match the Iace, intending to raa,ke madame's shawl as good as new, Having done her shopping, she cinema to the other sitle, and walked a little way toward Tottenham Court Road, hop- ing to find room in an omnibus, with- out having to struggle at the regular stopping -place. Presently a Royal Oak omnibue came up, and palmed before she hailed it. Mona hastened to enter as soon as en elderly and somewhat de- crepit -looking man had descended, with the help of a stick end I' baggy Um- b r e lhl a e. Tomnibus moved on before the old gentleman had one foot clear of the step and he fell prone on the damp, profusely watered ground. The driver of a hansom could hardly draw up quickly enough to prevent his horse from trampling on the prostrete figure, which seemed tine able to recover tbe perpendicular. Mona, by a natural iinpulse, bent down to assist him, and a burly polieemart soon set him on his feet. "No bonen broken." he said, neerfully, feeling his legs and arma.

"Tliank ye, thank ye." He put the glass to his lipe and drank very slowly. "The Lord be nankin" he said, plaeing it half emptied on the table, "for saving my life; but I am noir shaken!"

Having heard her friend's summary, and assisted to reduce the sea of small account books, scribbled ecraps of paper, bills, and receipts to something like or- der, Mona related her adventure, and ma- dame did not scold.

(Boston Tranecelpt.) The government has undertaken to super- intend the introduction into this country of the sacred cattle of India for breeding pUr:Nr.- poets. The reason why these cattle are de- sired by cattlemen is that they are immune from pleuro -pneumonia, -which has caused such heavy losses through infection by cattle ticks. The ticks, it is assorted, can not work on the sacred cattle. Experiments have been carried om for years to demonstrate this fact. The introduction of one -eight of sacred blood in the ordinary American eattio is said to be enough to obtain immuuity. Secretary Wilson agreed to afford facilities for the im- portation to Indian cattle, but on condition that government veterinarian should examine every beast before it wea bought and give his approval to the purchaee.

Probably the most important step that has been taken in this country during the 18.st decade has been in the direction of reclaim- ing arid and semiarid lands by means of irrigation. Vaetas tracks In the west and middle west are now richly productive that once was considered worthless for raising crops. Deserts formerly given over to meag- er bush and cactus are now wonderfully fruitful fields and gardens. In thia develop- ment the department of agriculture has boon a most potent factor.
