The Right Mam After All. .Viola had found a lover ; or at least, John Ellsworth aspired: to that distinction. Two years ego, the paternal Ella worth had criven J hn on his twenty-third birthday a deed of a small, good farm near his own. John set about making a home for himself, with one of his halfdozen sisters to manage it, and went at his farming in earnest. And the younger female portion thought him rather a desirable object to maneuver for. Perhaps that was one reason why Tiola had been so gracious to him. It was something to secure, without an effort, attentions that all the other girls schemed for. But John Ellsworth did not realize her ideal. Under her calm exterior, she dreaded romances of the most vivid rose-pink. One June night, driving over to see his lady, John found her with an unusual flush on her fair young face. She rode with him accepting his invitation in a matter-of-course, way that was dreadfully discouraging. It came out, after a little while, that Mrs. Mornington, a great-aunt, had sent for her photograph a month ago, not having seen her since she was a child. Two days ago hao come an invitation to spend a couple of months with her (the great-aunt) in New York, and she was going to-morrow. "It's no use denying," the young fellow said, his voice growing husky, " that Fm sorry for this. I don't know what wfll eome to you from this. Ton are not contented here ; yon never will be until yon have had an experience beyond it perhaps not then. I am not wise enough to tell yon now, 1 suppose-: but I love yon, Viola; Mmd, I do not ask yon now for any return. I shall wait for what the future may put in yonr heart to say." "Indeed, I do care for you, John; and ' you can't blame me for wanting to go. Aunt needs me, yon see ; and no one does here, particularly. And I've never seen anything of society." "I know; dear" "And I shall not forget you," interrupting him. "I shall always think of you " giving him her hand. "For two whole months," a little sadly. Good-by, then," kissing the hand he held. And then Viola found herself alone, and then went to finish her packing. Viola's next two months were delightful. She was always prettily dressed, and Frank Thorpe passed Jus valuable time beside her. John Ellsworth called on hex the night after her return. "You look well and happy," he said, scanning her face!, ' " I am," she said ; and she told him all about her delightful visit. - "And are "yon going to settle with us now?" " " Oh, no! ' I stay here only a few days. My aunt is coming for me as she returns from a visit she is paying." "Poor fellow !" Viola said, as he went down the moonlit road. And then Frank Thorpe's dreamily sad gray eyes came np before her, and she forgot John Ellsworth's shady brown ones. Mrs. Mornington came and took the young lady away, and Frank Thorpe was once again hanging around her- a most desirable matrimonial prize. The Christmas holidays came and went. Frank Thorpe lounged in on Christmas dayv and was paler and more listless than even Mrs. Mornington gave her first bit of advice to her voting charge that night. "Frank Thorpe is not a man to trifle with, my dear. I think he is in love withyou. You could hardly do better." "Do better?" raising her broad lids for a Ml, steady look. "I hadn't thought there was to be any calculation. No, Frank does not care for me, aunt." -" If he is in love with yon, so much the better. But come ; Mrs. - Grove's ball must be attended." . Viola went to that ball, and froze Frank Thorpe, who, unconscious of offense, languidly assumed his usual station near her. Among Mrs. Grove's guests that night was a rather good-looking man, who certainly was no longer young. Having lost one wife, he was now looking for another. "When he was presented to Viola she was barely cmt Mr. Nicolson seemed to like it. Frank Thorpe" had ceased being frozen. To tell the truth, Viola made the advances. There was a shade more of languor in his manner, and his sad gray eyes had an added shadow.; but he rought no explanation from her. One frosty, sparkling morning Viola hod been out for a walk. On the way she met Frank Thorpe, as she was very apt to do. He accompanied her home and entered the house with her. Then Viola, feeling bright herself, began lecturiiig him on his purposeless life. " If I were a man "emphatically, "Thank heaven yon are not ! However, go on." " You put me out, Mr. Thorpe ; why don't yon do something ? " "Do something? Don't I? I am yonr devoted attendant three-fourths of my waking life." " Yes, and get yourself and me talked about by everybody. Not . that I care, certainly,1 hurriedly to recover her blunder. 'I shall choose my friends where I please," making matters worse, of course. . " Yon see," he said, leaning forward and laying his hand confidentially on her arm, " I cannot bear to see a clearbearted, honest girl lowering herself to the ways of these artificial, brainless SfirLs who have been bred np all their lives in the' business of catching a husband. You don't need any paltry ambi-t-'en. Wait until you find a man worth iAlhig in love with, nd then marry him. Wait forever, if yon don't find him." Viola sat motionless with astonishment if any dumb thing had found voice Khe would not have been more hg- azed. And she felt so fully called to iidniniter advice. While she sat, his iisod still on her arm, and his eyes still on her face, the door opened, and John Ellsworth was ushered in, Viola swept

toward him with eager, outstretched hands. Frank Thorpe, being disturbed by this new-comer, who was called John, and received with such an outbreak of enthusiasm, gathered himself up and lounged away; John Ellsworth was in town for a fortnight. Viola always accepted his invitations, and when the time canie for their fulfillment there was some unavoidable obstacle in the way. Then Lent came and there was a sudden cessation of gayety.; " John was called away by his father's illness, -and Viola felt the inevitable reaction. It was alike everywhere. In the narrow circle out of which she had come there were jealousies and heart-burnings, and petty scheming no better and no worse than she had come to know in t he past weeks, though possibly less disguised by smooth, conventional polish of manner. Wait till she- met a man she loved ! She might wait until she was gray and blind. There had never appeared one to whom she could give a second thought, unless it was well, perhaps, John Ellsworth, if the life that would follow with him were not too narrow to breathe, in ; or Frank Thorpe, if he were not too lazy to speak. And then, by contrast, there came a vision of Mr. Nicolson and all his wealth. If she had shown the first symptoms of her moods to Mr. Nicolson he would have desisted from his attentions at once. Here was yonth and beauty in a statuesque state of perfection. " That was what he wanted the statuesqueness, and everybody considered it. a. settled affair. I think Viola began to consider it herself. She had just one letter from John Ellsworth after his return, and lie said : " I love you, Viola, and am waiting for you." She did not even answer the letter. But Bhe was cross, even with Mrs. Mornington, for two days after it. Then she was seized with a fit of homesickness, and, had her friend not been taken very suddenly ill, nothing would have kept her there. Mr. Nicolson came more frequently than ever ; in his way, very lunn and considerate. One night in early spring Frank Thorpe came and took Viola out for a drive. "You are looking tired. We may not have another such night for a month," Frank said. . In the half hour they did not speak half a dozen sentences, and yet when he set her down at her own door, and held her. hand for a minute as he said "Farewell," Viola felt that they were nearer each other than' ever before, Viola was one morning summoned to the drawing-room to meet Mr. Nicolson. In the occupation of the past weeks she had had very little opportunity to think about him or his purposes. No girl ever went to meet the final question with less determination as to her answer. She knew his errand the moment she entered the room. Not that he was confused or hesitating, or in any way disconcerted. " My dear young lady," he said, "I want your permission to ask you a personal question." . -" Yon have it, sir," ahe'Bakt" " And then, in a speech which was more like a set oration than anything else Viola had ever heard, he offered her his hand and fortune; She went up-stairs to Mrs. Mornington, saying: "And I've, done it I And I am so surprised !'"'.'" 1 "At what?" I refused Mr. Nicolson."

"Perhaps vou will be sorry that you have said no. "Perhaps. I shall never be surprised at any tiling again." A servant announced Frank. Thorpe. " Aunt, shall I" and paused. Even in her reckless, over-excited mood she conld not complete her sentence. " Shall yon be kinder to him than you have been to Mr. Nicolson? " "Don't ask "me." So Viola went down to see her visitor, who was at the full tide of his languid, tired indifference. " "How. very entertaining yon are today. Yonr conversational powers are something to be wondered at," Viola said at last, impatiently. Entertaining ? " opening his eyes with mild wonder. "I supposed that yonr share of the interview. However, if yon like, 111 begin. You are not looking as well as usual this morning." " Thank you. - What a very promising beginning." " - "But you have infinitely the advantage of Mr. Nicolson, whom 1 met just now. He seemed laboring under the impression that there had been an earthquake." "And so there has been. There : talk about something else. Yon needn't be entertaining any more.". " Miss Rawdon," the servant announced, and that put an end to it all. Viola reasoned herself into the conviction that she was in love with Frank Thorpe, and, if not actually in that condition,.' she .might easily , find herself there. The crisis was not far off. Coming in from an errand, that night, she found all the dimly-lighted house empty, and went on from room to room till, in the library, she opened the door on Frank Thorpe. " Since yon were not at home, I came to find for myself a volume Mrs. Mornington had promised me," he explained. But he closed the door as he gave her a chair- as if the tete-a-tete were a part of his plan.' " We might as well begin with a clean record," he said, with a great deal of hard earnestness in his voice. 1 You are not my first love, Viola. Not guite two years ago she jilted me. I was in an awful spoony condition there's no denying itahd'for a few weeks thought it would be the death of me. One morning my letters and trinkets came back to me. There was not a word of explanation, and I did not choose to ask any." " And the young lady's name ? " "Emily Prescott," " Emily Preeeott ? Why, that is the young lady I1 met this afternoon. Just home from abroad in Paris mourning. Her father and mother both died some where in France in the spring, and she came home with the Mertons. " "Viola," staring at her with-eager eyes, "I can't believe it," dropping into a chair. - ' My poor darling - "It seems to me, Frank, that the little arrangement we entered into ten minutes ago might as well be quietly annulled. Your 4 poor darling' is at present with the Mertons. Hadn't you better go up there at once and rearrange the programme ? " - - "I don't know. Viola, yon will think me a scoundrel, but I behove I love her yet;" " "Of course yon do. Who doubts it ? There, don't say a woman can't be generous." After that nothing could keep her in New York, and three days aiter reaching home, driving her old-fashioned ponychaise over the green country road, she. came upon John Ellsworth walking; and he accepted her invitation to ride. "It is good to be here again. I was thoroughly homesick." " When are yon to be married? " "Never ! " with a burst of vehemence; "unless you oh, John!" with a hysterical sob. At home a telegram awaited her. Mrs. Mornington was dead. Mrs. Mornington died poor. She had spent all her money. So Viola was not an heiress after all.

THE FAMILY PRTSICIA5.

Cari.BiiAlN9 For the cure of a chilblain once formed, hundreds of remsdies are from time to time recommended, A mixture of. the compound tincture of iodine and liquor ammonia), equal parts, painted over the inflamed parts twice a day, is probably as good as any. Glycerine or lime liniment eases the itching, and some may find relief from bathing the chilblain in a strong solution of alum ; au ounce of tho powder dissolved in a pint of soft water. Cabe of InFatsts; The first two years of life is the period of infancy ; and it is also the period of greatest mortality, Tho things most essential to tho infant are pure air, appropriate and seasonable clothing and proper food. Hence, the room" occupied by the infant should be well ventilated and kept at an equable temperature. Its bed should be an ordinary hair mattress, with cotton sheets and woolen blankets. Its clothing should be carefully adapted to tho changing seasons, to 'protect it from extremes of heat and cold. It should wear a soft flannel wrapper next the skin, thin in summer, heavier in winter. If, during infancy, a flannel band is also worn around the middle of the body to protect the bowels, and woolen stockings long enough to cover the knees, they will secure almost entire exemption from attacks of colic and diarrhea. Chapped Hands, As both a precaution and cure for chapped hands we have -used the following with benefit : Wash the hands, and the face also if it is inclined to chap, with borax water, and afterward rub with an ointment made by melting mutton tallow (or suet), and then gradually adding an equal quantity of glycerine, stirring the two together until cool. For the hands, this mixture can be best applied at night, using iUfreely, and warming it in by the fire, after which an old pair- of gloves can be put on to keep the bedUothes from being soiled, and also make the skin of tho hands softer. An excellent glycerine ointment for chapped hands is made by melting with a gentle bent, two ounces of sweet oil of almonds, talf an ounce of spermaceti, and one drachm of white wax. When melted, remove from the stove, and add gradually one ounce of glycerine, and stir nntil the mixture is cold. The ointment can be scented with any perfume to suit the fancy. Keep in wide-necked bottles. Conns. A- cold in the head, says UalVa Journal of Health, can usually be cured in a few hours, if, as soon as discovered, the person will sniff the fumes o .imiouia, or spirits of camphoi every few minutes as strong as they can be borne. When a severe cold attacks the throat and lungs, there is no safety in neglecting it for an hour, for there is more or less inflammation of the lungs, which interferes with their action, rendering them liable at any moment to take on serious, and, possibly, uncontrollable disease. Go home and remain there. In the evening take a warm foot bath, and at bed time take three or four liver pills. These will stimulate the liver to healthy action, and promptly relieve the lung trouble ; but it renders the system sensitive to renewed attacks, and, therefore, the greatest care should be observed for several days not to take fresh colds. Ordinarily, no other treat- " ment is necessary; but, should the. cough continue, have your druggist make the following mixture, and take one or two teaspoonfuls every hour till cured : Glycerine, four ounces ; whisky, four ounces ; morphine, one grain. Sore throat can be promptly relieved by applying a mustard plaster, or "mustard leaves," on the front of the neck, over the Bore spot. In addition the throat and 'mouth may be frequently gargled with the following mixture : A. teaspoonful of salt, a pinch of red pepper, and a table-spoonful of vinegar. If found too strong, add a little water, A portion of the gargle may be swallowed, or sipjped, little at a time. The Foolish Hen A Fablo. Mrs. Blown Hen was known throughout her neighborhood as a modest, hardscratching, patient biddy. She never complained of the cold or found fault with the heat, and no one ever heard her express an envious wish. Great was the surprise, therefore, when she appeared among the barnyard fowls one day and began : ; "I'm tired of being a hen. It i.s nothing but scratch for worms and lay eggs for the fomily. Let a peacock pass by and all praise'it, but what member of the family ever had a word of praise for me ? I'm going to be a peacock." " That you cannot be," replied a veteran old rooster, as he shook the dust off his back. "You lack in size and shape. Nature intended you for a hen, and as a hen you are a success." " But I can dress like a peacock," persisted the hen, "I'm sick and tired of these brown colors. I see no reason why I shouldn't dress as well as any otherfowl." Arguments and reasons were of no avails and Mrs. Brown Hen walked away to carry out her programme. In an hour she appeared among the peacocks with a red ribbon around her neck, a gay feather over her ear and a rod woolen rag tied around her leg. She strutted about and tried to make herself at home, but one of . the peacocks stepped forward and said : "You are simply deceiving yourself. We all know you for a hen. Vhile yon were acting the part of a hen we all respected you. Now that you are crowding in where you don't belong, and' where neither nature nor education have fitted you, yon deserve only contempt." The hen persisted in trying to be a peacock, and as she btrutted around in her borrowed finery the cuok observed her and &aid : ' "No hen with her means could have come by those things honestly. She was the best hen in the coop as long an she remained in her place, but now that .she is out of it she will be gossiped about and mado miserable, and I will therefore wring her neck and eat her." Women's Shoes. It has sometimes seemed as if horses were as badly shod: as could be, but women are even worse shod at the present day, i . Many years - ago the sohool-books used to contain illustrations of the feet and shoes of the Chinese ladies, which furnished an unfailing source of mirth and ridicule to the American youth. Now fashionable women in this country wear a very similar style of shoe, with its elevated heel under the middle of the foot and its pinched toe. Our esteemed contemporary, the New. York IHmes, says that sensible women would be very glad to wear shoes of a different pattern, but they are not to be found at the shoe stores, nor is it easy to get them made to order. ; Perhaps in time it will come to walk? ing about on stiltH which tho fashionable heels of the,-day approach in. altitude. There is one tiling nbout it ; if girls think small calves becoming, they are Hare to get them by wearing highheeled shoes. How little women realize the draught upon their symmetry and beauty which these high heels make 1 If they did realize it, no woman in the country would have one on a week froxr to-day, New York Ledger.

Maybe you never heard of the disease, and I'll explain. Just wait a minit. " The old lady took a liberal pinch of itnufi1, dusted off her nose on her check apron, and said : " We tried to bring that boy up seusiblOj but when ho was away to college ho got .struck on this gal, and wo never kuowed he was married until he brought her home.

When ho said to me : Mother, this is my wife, Mollie,' I should have swooned away, only I thought my emptings might run over before they could bring me to. There she was, a green young thing, hardly taller than a boot-jack, face painted, false hair, laced to kill, eyebrows blackened, and proud ns Lucifer of her small feet. I was rollin' out. pie-crust, and the thing took mo so sudden and fluslrated mo so much that I put' a pie to bake with nothing but my spectacles between the crusts." " "' She held the spectacles up to the light, polished up the brass bows a bit on her knee, and went on; ( We had to put up with it, but I told Henry how it would be, and I believe he has repented in sackcloth and ashes nioiv'n a dozen times. She was a fash-, ionable doll. She couldn't sew, sweep, bake, dust, darn or make her own bed. She'd laced till her ribs were all ont of shape. She'd been so fashionable about her stockings and shoes and clothes that she had a chronic sore throat, and one lung was half gone with consumption. She'd painted till her face was blotchy. She'd drawled around until she had a gait between a limp and crawl. That's the kind of a wife he brought home to be his consolation and help-meet. His father could do the work of two men, and I could get up a dinner for twenty harvest hands and keep the leach nuiniug, and he expected us to be father and mother to that doll 1" She shut her lips, trotted her foot, and it was a long time before she could go on : "They live across the road there, rihe hain't seen a dozen well days since he brought her home, nor done an hour's w"ork. I've been over soaking her feet, making her herb tea, combin' her hair, fixin' up gruel, and tellin her slovenly hired girl what's what, but I'm discouraged.

Angels don't have to plan or patch or darn," trec Press, A Chinese Execution. The criminal is conveyed to the execution ground in a basket slung on a bainboo between two coolies. 'Half stupefied by fear and rendered almost inseusk bio to the fate about to he suffered from the effects of snmshoo, which is given to the victim in abundance, the procession wends its way between throngs of Celestials. The road is lined with sedan chairs conveying the oiheials, both high and low, to witness the sight. Upon arrival at the place of punishment, a crowd of chattering Chinese may be seen, some engaged smoking their pipes, others discussing their early bowl of congee at the stall of the perumhulae-. ing venders ' of edibles. Not the least trace of any feeling of awe or compassion is exhibited at the tragedy about to be enacted, A stolid indifference marks the countenance of fhe assemblage, and it is only when the cortege files into position before the dais, whereon the Viceroy and the provincial Judge have taken their scats, that any observable emotion animates the crowd, The criminal is made to kneel, while a subordinate officer reads the edict of the Viceroy, This sets forth the crime and the penalty, and exhorts the culprit to confess fuily. All the victim can do is to cry for mercy, of which quality there is apparently a lack. At a given signal from the Judge the two' executioners step forward and seize the unfortunate wretch. Divested of every particle of clothing he or she is bound hand and foot to two upright pieces of wood in the form of a Saint Andrew's cross. The minions of the law draw from their lelts two short, sharp knives. They are How ready for their bloody work. With a devilish skill they commence to slit the skin and flesh at the wrists. Proceeding up the arms until the neck is reached, their attention is then directed to the lower limbs. The ankles upward, the fleshy part of the legs and thighs right up to the chest are under operation. Tho whole body is now one quivering mass of strips of skin and flesh, from which the blood is pouring in streams, dying the gruuud and the executioners' clothes a vivid red color. By this time the vast crowd are on the tiptoe of expectation, straining their bodies to get a glimpse of the gory figure, and eager to watch the least sound of a sigh or groan. After tho sliriek of pain which attends' the first nse of tho knife, frequently nothiug but low, agonizing moans escape iho lips. While this horrible seemis being enacted, the peanut hawkers, the beancurd and candy hucksters ply their trade, oblivious of the fact that a human being is undergoing torture With head drooping on the breast, closed eyes, and face bearing an unutterable look of pain and agony, the victim now stands. The Judge, seemingly tired at the disgusting sight, claps hia hands. The chief executioner, at the signal, plunges his knife into the breast, and with one hand te;r.-i open tho flesh, while with the othr he pull the quivering heart out by tho roots, holds it up tn view, and then dashes it to tho ground. Thus justice vindicated. Coercive Measures. A Galveston Irishman has a very bright boy, who reads the papers,- The other morning the old man asked Patrick junior why ho didn't return tho change from the marketing. There was no answer except that tho boy muttered : "Tim toirant." " Have you fed the pig, Patrick ?

A Lively Subject. There used to be a story current of a perplexing incident in the life of John Hunter, tho celebrated surgeon, which has a certain grim drollery about it. One night, on receiving from Jack Ketch a "subject" who had been hanged that morning at Newgate swh hangings and such subjects were very common in those days ho perceived somehow ur other tho vital spark was not quite- extinct. His professional xenl ws instantly aroused j lie applied ail his skill to tho task, and, in short, succeeded, to his scientific satisfaction, in restoring the law's victim to his entire faculties again. But his satisfaction' was somewhat short-lived, fur the resuscitated felon insisted upon looking to his benefactor for his future subsistence. He argued that, as he had striven to bring him, as it were, a second time into the world, he must be regarded in hco parentis. Hunter, always a nervous man, and by no means convinced that he had not offended grievously against the laws in his little e-NperUnent, had no alternative but to comply to the demands of his ungrateful patient, who was byno means modest in his visits. After a time, however, they ce:ued ; but even that brought no comfort to poor Hunter, who lived in perpetual terror of his tormentor unexpectedly popping upon him. At last he reappeared before him again. One fine evening another Newgate importation was brought to the private door of the dissecting-room, and, to his intense satisfaction, he once more recognized the well-rcnienibercd features. Hunter used to say, with a grim smile, that ho took speedy care mot to give him a second chance. Music Hath Charms, Eto. j From the St. Louis Western Walchmau.

Aak your neighU;r (bin same question, 2imes, Light on Mooted Questions of the War. T had long desired to know the exact truth from the fountain of Southern knowledge on the subject, in regard to several important events of tho war, and was agreeably surprised at the freedom with which Mr. Davis met my inquiries. Why Beauregard Was ordered to tire upon Anderson in Fort Sumter after his surrender was inevitable at a specified time without assaulting the flag, baa never been entirely understood. It was the act of madness, as it made division in the North impossible, and I have always believed that the real cause of the order to open lire was to unify the South and end the threatening movements for reunion on terms. Mr. Davis answered promptly' and' emphatically that . the order waa given solely because faith had been broken by the'Lincolu administration in attempting to reinforce Anderson, and that the South needed no war

to solidify its people. 1 thmfc he errs in underestimating the probable power nf the movement in the South for reconstruction before the war, but it is evident that in deciding to issue the fatal order for the assault upon Sumter, he believed the Confederacy invincible, and defiantly resented what he regarded as fi violation of the pledge of the Federal Government, That act practically consolidated the North, aud thenceforth the P,nTifrtdraev was a fearfully hopeless

venture. On another important point ! he answered with the same freedom. When Bsked whether the aggressive movement of Lee that culminated at Gettysburg was adopted as purely military strategy or tho offspring of political necessity inside the Confederacy, he answered that it was the wisest of both military and political strategy, but that it was not dictated at all by political considerations. He said that the wisdom of the -military movement was proven in the recall of Meade from Virginia and the transfer of both armies to Northern soil ; but, he soberly added, the battle was a inisfortvme. The chances were equal, as he ! regarded it, for military success, and that - would have deranged the whole plan of the Government and impaired its resources for the campaign of that year. As a military movement, Mr. Davis says, the Gettysburg campaign had the entire approval of Gen. Lee, and there were no political divisions in the South to dictate any departure from the wisest military laws. I desired, also, to know whether, at the time of the Hampton Roads conference between Lincoln, Seward, Stephens and others, Mr. Davis had received any intimation from any credible source that Sir. Lincoln wouVd consent to tho payment of $-100,000,000 as compensation for slaves if the South would accept emancipation and return to the Union. He answered that he had no such intimation from any source, but that if such proposition had been made he could not have entertained it as the Executive, of the Confederacy. Ho said that he was the sworn Executive of a government founded on the rights of the States ; that slavery was distinctly declared to be a State institution, and that such an issue could have been decided mly by the independent assent of each State. Some of them, he added, would have accepted such terms at that time, but ot iters would have declined it, and peace was, therefore, impossible on that basK Vol Alex, JC, McClure. Fast Thinking.
