Yes ; there was something. Without oeeitation ne tnrust uis nana into tne bed of feathery ashes, . and drew forth a large, crumpled sheet of charred brown papor. Stifling an exclamation he started to his feet and going over to a marble ta-i ble Hear he laid it upon the slab and smothered it out. He bent his head, and en exclamation of horror passed his lips.

Buby XiKntvuee. How came that paper in Buby's room, in her grate? Arthicr started to his feet-, and pushed baok the damp hair from his clammy biow as the horrible thought crept like a noisome reptile over hia heart "It looks as if she had takou the, will, as that woman down stairs insinuated," he groaned; "and then, in her haste and fear of exposure, tossed it into the fire. She wanted it destroyed, anyway 1 But the dying fire only charred tike paper, and it has arisen in evidence against her!" But Arthur Wynne dashed these thoughts aside as though they had been poison. "Heaven forgive mel" he cried, "that I should for a tingle moment harbor such thoughts as these. My, Sior darling; my poor liltlo Buby! eaven help her and shield her wherever she may bet" : He placed the charred naper careful! v between the folds of TnewsDAoer. 'and, carrying it with him, turned to leave the room. At tne door He paused and glanced back, and his eyes fell upon small object lying upon the carpet near the fireplace. He stooped aud picked it up.. A comb which had evidently fallen from some woman's hair an oddly shaped ornament of imitation coral. Not such a comb as Buby would have worn. But Arthur Wynne slipped it into his pocket with a strange, eager look upon his face. "Worth inquiring into at least I" he muttered, sharply. Then he paused as his eyes fell upon something else. , Over the jnantel there hunt; a painted picture the portrait of Gilbert Lawrence and at the top of the gilded frame, like a crown, -hung a wreath of green ivy leaves. He had henrd some one say (hat the wreath had bee n placed there by Buby's .hands. "As though a child who loved her father so very dearly could be guilty of his death 1" he cried aloud, indignantly. "Heaven forgive them all for the infamous charge! Oh, my little lore! ThearenaU dawn when tnoy shall jrage Deiore you ana sue tor pardon 1 wonlil lav mv life down to boa that day! I would die in her defense!" he. iwut on, his eyes flashing with enthu"fri tiffin. There was no longer any excuse for lingering, so he left the room and looked its door behind him. Then he went down stairs, with a pale, troubled face. In the hall below he encountered Gabrielle, and mentioned the necessity of still retaining the key of the room in his possession for a time. "I am obliged to report to the Chief of Police, madam 1" he said quietly, "after which your key shall be restored toyoul Her face grew red and then pale, and her dark eyes flashed ominously. "A curious lawthat which permits strangers to take possession of one's own house!" she cried, angrily. Arthur bowed. "I regret the necessity, madam," he returned, "but it cannot be avoided. Good morning r He was turainir toward the outer door but .GsjbrieTffe checked him. Her face was wreathed in smiles. "3" trust you will not dislike us, Mr. Wynne, simply because of our unfortunate position 1" she cried. "It is not my fault or darling Adele's, that this unpleasant notoriety has besn forced upon us. Mr. Wynne, you will call upon us often? It will be a charity, for we are strangers here, and know no oneT Every impulse of his nature cried out against accepting the overtures of this woman. But an after-thought reminded him that it would be policy to apiear amenable; and, perhaps, who knew but that he might learn something -which would serve him in his quest? He murmured some half-audible reply; but he bad wavered in his manner, and this lack of firmness was a fatal mistake. In the grounds without he met tho housekeeper, a garrulous old lady, with whom he had already become acquainted. After a few words of pleasant greeting, he drew forth the coral comb. Before he eould utter a word, she ejaculated; "Good gracious ! If there ain't Maggie Willett'B comb that she lost ! And the way she's fretted about the thing, one would believe it was worth a pretty penny l Arthur returned the comb to hia pocket. 'I will hand it to her to-morrow," he observed, trying to conceal his satisfaction at the words that he had heard. Then, with a hasty farewell, he hurried on, out through the gates, aud was soon back in the great busy city. His objective point was tho Stanford Mills. It waa a new manufactory, and but little paper had as yet been issued from it. Mr. Stanford himself, the proprietor, examined .the sheet of paper upon which that letter was written the fatal letter found in Buby's room, "Ah!" he exclaimed, "I know all about it It is the only paper of that quality that we have as yet turned oat of the mill, aud it was all sold to to . He referred to his books. "Ah, yes, A. J. Graham, stationer. No. Blank street You know the place," Arthur nodded. "Yes. Thanks, Mr. Sanford. And now I must make haste to the office." Arrived there, he found Chief Ludlows quite excited over a bit of a clew just sent to the office. A woman, ia a dark traveling suit and sealskin saoquo, with a round hat and a thick veil, covering her face from sight, had been known to leave the city, upon a South-

What Is a Strawberry.

No one, wo suppose, in these days of opular lectures aud elementary banuooks, needs to be told that what wo call the fruit of the strawberry in not the fruit, but the receptacle or cushion on which the fruit is placed, the fruit being in reality the hard little brown nuts which, if we condescend to notice them at all, we usually call seeds. But while the friilt remains to ordinary ideas unfruitliko; the receptacle be comes fleshy and juicy and red, and acquires the flavor whioh induced old Iznak Walton to say that God could, without doubt have made a better berry, but equally, without doubt, God never did. Now, how comes it, asks Mr. Allen, that tho strawberry has developed the habit of producing this succulent and conspicuous cushion ? It was uot so from the beginning; this was not the "primitive iorm." Tho primeval strawberry fruits were crowd ed together on a green, dry, indelible receptacle. Whence the change? ".Why does the strawberry develop this largo mass of apparently useless matter?" The answer follows unhesitatingly, For a plant with indigestible fruits, like these little nuts, it was a clear gain in the struggle for life to be eaten by birds, and consequently to b.ivo something to tempt birds to eat Some of the ancestral strawberries chanced to have a receptacle a trifle more juicy than their chaffy brethren, and by virtue of this piece of luck gave birth to more than the usual number of seed lings, all reproducing and some further developing the parental characteristic The most developed were throughout the most fortunate, till the present state of affairs was reached; while the strawberry plants which had nos beaten in the f ace"Of life; Wr the extenij ot becoming altogether extinct. By a like process the berries (if we may so call them for botanists will reproving ly tell us they are no such thing) be came red, the color serving as an ad vertising medium to let the fowls of the air know where the now luscious morsels were to be found. Now we aro far from saying that this is an im possible account of the growth of straw-borries--we will not even say that it ia very improbable. But Mr. Grant Alien gives it simply as fact as categorically as he would tell us that Columbus discovered the New World. Is it a certain matter of fact? Are there 110 difficulties iu the way of accepting his piece of history i Month. Where Horses Are a Curiosity. Several incidents of recent African exploration call to mind the stories that were told of the early travels of vrhite men in this country. A white man on horseback is a very unusual spectacle in tropical Africa,- and the animal Mr, Hodister rode a few mouths ago mode almost as much of a sensation as the horse that Cortex introduced into Mexico. Hodister's journey was a short one, extending only from Lcndana, on the coast to Boma, on the Congo, but it led the traveler through a densely peopled region of which little is yet known. "My horse," he writes, "made a great sensation. At sight of him all the wo men in the villages at first were petrified witn astonishment, luey stood motionless, with their eyes fixed on the strange animal. Coming to themselves at last with their hands raised above their heads, they raised their cry of 'Ho, ho, ho!' expressive of boundless astonishment Some of them threw themselves upon the ground, smiting their breasts. Could it be, they said, that such a great beast with a white man above him, was harmless? Suoh an animal must certainly eat black people. "When we convinced them at last that horse was harmless,-and that he was a very useful animal they ventured nearer. They had no eyes for anything but the horse Aa we passed through the villages many of the inhabitants followed us. The men turned back after a mile or so, but many of the women, who showed the greatest inter est and curiosity, followed us for three miles. When my horse trotted they trotted, too, their eves fixed on the beast Unmindful of where they were stopping they fell into the furrows in the manioc fields, and tumbled down iu the tall grass. They kept pointing the ani mals out to the babies tuat were fastened on their backs. From some of the villages deputations came to me ask ing me to stop a while in their towns that they might have time to admire the prodigy." A whole menagerie of African curiosities, would not excite so much attention in the civilized world as this horse aroused in a part of Africa where the zebra never roams and no speoies of the horse family is known. New York Sun, A Bee Story. An interesting bee story was related to me uot long since by Mr. Charles Eugley, of Nobleboro. "Once upon a time, while hoeing iu my field, I heard a great buzzing over my head, and look I j w laaai 11 1 warm oi-beea, o ut once picked up a small rock and be gan thumping my hoe ana using my lungs to their utmost rapacity. I told the folks at the house to bring me a set of old-fashioned Bleigh-beils, and 1 began ringing them with all my might, while the bees circled round and round above me. Neither troe or brush was any where near. As they circled around they began to come very near the spot where I stood, and at last they were all around my head. I kept ringing tho bells very softly, when one lit on my shoulder, and then they all came to gether, in a mass. I started triumphantly for the house, holding my head as quiet as possible.
