Arden, in a low, tttetallie voice, drawing a blue satin easy -chair close by the bedside, "when I looked upon your face. as I entered I saw tears upon your eye- lashes, and I said to myself, 'The dear child is penitent this morning.

Evidently no thought Iingered in Rosebud's hind of the handsome hero who had saved her life, she thought. "This morning's mail brought a. letter; to Maud from her engaged lover, who had the pleasure of res- cuing you from what might have been quite a severe accident. ITe begs he may also have the pleasure of meeting you, too, Rosebud," she said, toying nervously with the white silk tassels of her morning robe; "and I have come to have a little talk with you on the subject," "Oh, please don't!" cried Rosebud, impulsively, "I don't iritot to hear about it! It makes me faint and terrified to bring up the subject." "I merely wanted to ask a favor of you," said Mr:s. Arden, sweetly. "May I?" "Why, yes, just as .many 118 yo please," replied Little Rosebud, con. pietely decals by her step -mother's winning cordiality. "It is a very easy favor to grant," safcl Mrs, Arden, musically, her voice failing to a lots murmur: "and that is, that you will have as little to say to i<Ii', Porcy Fielding as pos "Why?" asked Rosebud, a terribI faintness creeping over her. ''Iron would not understand if should attempt to explain," sh answered, with well -assumed frank nests. "1 am forced to admit this much, however, even though lie is Maud's engaged lover, Percy is quite a flirt. The following quotation seems particularly adapted to hien: " 'She was a winsome little maid, And he a gallant, Eine and gay -- He won her simple, foolish heart, :.'hen laughed in scorn and rode away,' Now, Rosebud, I want you to pro- mise axe one thing—you at a so young, almost a child in years, and know nothing of the ways of the world—I know just holy thoughtless and hu- pelsiVe young girls are, especially where there is a handsome young man in the case, and I want you to promise axe to avoid Percy Fielding our every possible occasion, it is a slight' favor to ask—promise ate, Rosebud, that you will grant it."

Prof. %night said his further ex- periments showed that the destrnc. tion of fish in stagnant water by sawdust was not due to putrefaction of the sawdust, but to these extract- ed substances front the wood, and that in time with fresh air and sun- light the water would purify itself. 'Wonderful Animals. Nothing from cattle is allowed to go to waste; from the horns to the long hair on the tip of the tail all is utilized. The latter is turned in- to curled hair for upholstering. The hoofs go chiefly into the kettle to be boiled for glue, and the residue is made into hoof -meat, a valuable fer- tilizer. Even the tankage water is boiled to extract its fats. The coarse bonds are either carbonized and teotd for sugar -refiners' use or turned into fertilizers, and the blood Is Mostly dried and turned into another aid of agriculture. Before the horns are sold, the pith is extracted from them, and the finest grade of gela- tine is obtained from the pith. The sinews are separated to be used for glue stock, and the ;bladders are sold for holding snuiT,and the greater part of the intestines aro used for saneness casings. ase glning or ane wtncgnper is also of - particular value, being used for a fancy sausage casing, and also as lining for pipes through which beer is passed in breweries. A new use has recently been discovered for the contents of the paunch, which until lately had to be thrown away to the dogs.
