"I bag your pardon, Miss Ashby." he aid ; "but I oome to solicit charity on the behalf of one of my patienta. lam note rich man myself," with the calm, handsunie eyes on her face, "and your father totd me that I might raiy upon him in this terrible trouble." "I am very glad to be of service," said Bessie. '"What is most needed, Dr. Halifax? He made a few suggestions, as he thought proper, and, under his directions, she fllleci a large basket with food and wine. It neemed as though he was t least ten years older, and Bessie's heart grew very fall at the sight of his pale, grave fec as she completed her tusk. " Can I do nthing more ?" she asked, as she gave him the basket. ' Oh, Dr. Halifax, if I only could V And in spite of herself the 'thick gathering tears filled her eyes. He looked surmised, and then his

face softened, "Thank yoa T he replied. "I will remember what yon have said." . When Tom Halifax mounted hia horse again, it was with a thrill of pleasurable pjdn and a backward glance at the slender figure on the piazza. He had looked down npon the pretty face benoath its Teilinj? curia, the wet lashes and tremulous month, thinking a little sadly of the days when her eyes would have met his with a warmer glow.

"Tin going to ask her to-night," said the Captain, raising his head suddenly, with a half smite. "It's all a lottery, you know; It remains to be proven .whether my prise is a blank or not."

"I didn't think I cared so much, a-td he was. poor, and we quarreled, and I thought I could like you well enough. I don't think I should have been so wicked, but be was so proud, and things sot worse every day ; but lately it has all come backhand I can't help it."

"Broken heart," laughed the Captahfc ' No, I don't think you will The warmth gives me a slight headache ; that; is alt" .4' ; But there was something more. ,Aa the day grew the slight headache became a severe .one, throbbing and pulsing, tbe pale-face flushed and the strong limb trembled and failed as they had never done before. At about 6 o'clock, as Tom sat in his office writing ou; . some prescriptions, Capt, Housted entered' the room and atiweered into a chair.

patient, Halifax, he said, smiling feebly. " I feel rather faint," And as he said this he dropped his deathlv face npon toe table and lay there without moving. He had braved it a long time, but the dreadful pest had come upon him at last; Tom sent for Col. Ashby, and the sick man was carried home. At the door Bessie met them with a pale face. but steady eyes. "She ought to have been sent away," said Tom, " But I am not afraid," she answered, firmly. " Please let me stay."

1 dare say you will decide tnat ltr. Halifax was shockingly unstable when I tell you that from tbat time his mind began to waver as regarded Bessie Ashbj. Meeting her every day iu her cousin's sick-room it was not easy to feel cold and stem. She was so aweet and girlish in her new humility, now the old

capricious coqnetr.7 was thrown aside,

shining heap against Dr. Halifax's broad shoulder. " My dear little girl," he said, tenderly kissing the pretty, tremulous face. "My dear, dear little girl, how happy you have made ma," What more have I to say ? I havo ended my record, bringing both hero and heroine through their adventures, and leaving them 'in apropeWy-dramstio position. I have only to tell you tha"; Capt. Housted has proved my theory of the elnstioity of hearts, and, recovering from his sickness, recovered from bin disapjiointment in a very sensible and decorous manner. In all probability he forgot his penchant for brown eyes and married a blonde. If he did, could there be a better proof that love is a lottery, and " variety the spice of lifeT"

sensitive fear which sometimes troubled, but always stirred his heart. He must take care of her-, too ; every shadow thai crossed the pretty face must be inquired into. He was not going to fall

' in love again, of course ; he was merely

doing bis duty, as a medical man. Hull, it was rather interesting. Cupt. Housted was the last serious case of sickness, but it was a very severe one. For months the poor fellow's life lay trembling in tbe balance ons day fevered and delirious, the next seemingly sinking into death. But in time he began to struggle through it, and, thanks to Tom's skill and patience, the shadowy face began to light with a faint glimmer of returning strength. Gradually the fearful scourge weakened its power, and little by little seemed passing away. .There were still patients to be visited, and work to be done, but the "awful rae of the pestilence had swept by. Then it- was that Tom Halifax began to reap his reward. People who "had never leard ltis name six months before sent for him in all critical eases. Men of wealth and high standing in society courted bis acquaintance as the brave young doctor who did his work so nobly throughout the sickness at Dorning. Men and women pointed him out to each other on the street, saying. " But for him I should

rhave been laid m my grave." "When

my old mother died he was the last man she kneiT;" " When we were in trouble he worked for ns day and night. God bless him!" Had there been nothing else, tbe warnv loyal young heart would have thrilled with tender thankfulness at the simple gratitude of the humble sufferers to whom he seemed almost a Savior, but, apart from this, reality come to

There was no lack of practice now, and the name and fortune that had seemed so far away a year ago became a promise of truth. Of course as yet they were not quite perfected, but still each day brought them nearer, and showed some-

thing of solid advancement in life and I prospect. .The Chateaux en Espagne

were beginning -to stand on a substantial foundation. Perhaps this might have made him very happy. Naturally he felt thankful, but being a very warm hearted and (in some tilings) a very unscieutinc M. D., he could not feel quite restful. The truest of aD truths is tbat whatever we love we can forgive, and whatever we forgive it is not difficult to love. Bessie Ashby had refused Capt. Housted. Why had she done it? Could it be that her foolish little heart was subdued at last? It is easy to be magnanimous when one has been injured, and it is bard not to be magnanimous when the injure is a pretty girl whom one has loved, li this were more than a simple record I should certainly decide-tnat my

hero could not forgive my heroine under ' : 1 a a,

any cireumaumceB, ana consequently should doom them both to misery and despair. Bat, as it is, I am compelled to say that Tom Halifax, M. D., forgave Bessie Ashby, for the simple reason thai, in spite of her faults, he loved her. And Bessie ? During her cousin's illness she had learned the extent of the M. D.'s power. She had found ont that she could look np to him and rely on his strength, that she could trust him implicitly. She began to discover that he had a higher object in view than the regard for self, which had been the one ruling power of her life, and his example taught her the true nobility of generous sacrifice. Still, in spite of the change in the hearts of both, they had not advanced much outwardly from the old coldness.. But in the second month of Copt. Housted's illness' the denouement cane, as a denouement always comes, unexpectedly. , One evening there had been a slight return of tbe fever, and alter a heavy sleep the patient awakened, restless ana wandering. Bessie was standing at one. side of the bed and Dr. HcJifax at the other, holding tbe Captain's hand as he opened bis eyes. "It was you she loved, after all, Halifax," he said, smiling faintly. "I am only Cousin Fred." The blood rushed into Bessie's face. The handsome eyes told her they understoodtold her with one glance that burnt her cheeks and set her heart beating swiftly. The next moment she brushed by him and left the room. Half an hour alter, Dr. Halifax came down stairs altd walked straight into the parlor, aa though he had some object in view. A very pretty figure stood revested in the dusky light by the w;ndow v pretty head, with long, shining ends, resting upon aa equally pretty hand. T wonder if Miss Ashby kn-iw what was coming ? Certainly her pulse fluttered very fast, and she looked out into the garden quite resolutely. She did not move. "Bessie!" He certainly was a determined gentleman, this Dr. Halifax, for he drew the pretty hands away and turned Miss Ashby to the, light. " Was it true?" he whispered, bending very low over her. Tite long curls drooped a little nearer. It really looked as if Miss Ashby was going over to the enemy. "11. think it was," she said, very softly. " 1 think it has been true for a long time.

The Luck of a Historic Knife. Everybody knows raider what circumstances Henry IV. wai assassinated by Bavaillac. The assassin, passing his arm through the window of the coach, struck tho monarch two blows with a knife, the latter of which piorced his heart While still brauduhing the knife, he was arrested by tho orders of the Duo d'Epernou, the knife being wrenched from his hand by Pietro de Mulaghino, an Italian attached to his suit, who afterward declared he had dropped the weapon ia the crowd. It would appear, however, that Malaghino, who wits a great amateur of curiosities, kept his historical relic until his death, when he lpft it to his descendants. It is difficult to day how it came in possession of Maurice de Saxe afterward ; but certain it is that a month before his death the Marshal made it ft present to his physician, Senao.

culty Sig. Farini invented a mode of stretching a net bv means of rubber

springs at the corners, which gave it

such elasticity that, no matter from what height the performer came down into it, or in what way, landing in it was

liKe dropping into a leather-be a. In 1876 Signor Farini invented a oannm for firing a performer from its muzzle to a considerable distance, with much noise and smoke, but without any danger to the projectile. The first cannon was operated by India-rubber springs, but Farini's patents have covered two other modes of propulsion, one by spiral springs and the other actually by the force of gun-powder, which in the spring cannons is simply used to keep up appearances. When the performer is to be literally "fired out,'f a heavy barrel in the breech of the sham cannon is loaded with about twice

i as much powder as would constitute a

charge for a shotguu, and the gases produced by its com bastion are set loose in an air-chamber at the base of a aeries of telescoped shells surrounding tho person in tbe cannon. As tho shells extend toward the muzzle, like the lengthening of a telescope, they Rive a rapid impetus to the performer. Near the muzzle two openings develop, through which pours the black smoke from tbe explosion, without any danger of burning or blackening the fired-out one, who ia at that moment gyrating through space.

The case was go dear that most lawyers of even more experience would have been content with a moving appeal to the jury. Not so with the embryo Executive, who set about in good earnest despite

them to " study np," could not explain; they were, of course, positive that the victim was murdered and that the prisoner ought to be punished, but under the close questioning of Pierce they

halted and blundered. This prepared a way for the defense to make on effective plea. He cautioned the juiy against being swayed by men so ignorant that they could not even tell tbe names of certain tissues, and thence cunningly argued that the victim did not die of the wound, and that the prisoner was not, therefore, guilty of murder.'
