"Have you?" she abed. "How nioe you will find your wolenrned rest. See, your chair Is wiiiting lor you. " "It shall not be empty a minute longer. It is wondertully comfortable. Sit thete, won't you? I like to see Your f aie: it rests me. " "Then I may consider myself useful, as well as ornamental," she laughed, wondering why tho rebellious color should fly to her face in such a disagreeable way. "When did you get my message, Mar garet?" he asked. About o ciock, i ininn. i was sorry you could not come home to dinner." You have had some, of course'.'" "I had an apology for one," he returned. "I hadn't lime for auy other; so many Important c isos brought in today, ihis hospital practice is worth a great deal to me, i tell you. I was getting rusty, and it lias polished me up considerably. I supposo Miss Hilton left, as she intended: " "She went early this afternoon." This answer was given with a faltering voice. "Dear Margftret," ho said with feeling, "I know how you will miss her. I wish you would let me comfort you. Don't go away. "Only for a few minutes," shfi an swered hastily. "I am coming back. True to her proriise she returnea quiokiy, with a snial. Iray in her hand. "Only some cake and coffee," she said, "to make up foi that apology for a dinner. I made th'i coffee. lo you think you wUl like if'" "Will I? Its fragrance is sumciently tempting." Brian jumped from his chair, ana took tne tray irom Jiargnret s hands. "I'm just beginning to realize that I am hungry. Yju will help mo to drink it?" Of course." laughed Margaret "I want to show my appreciation of culi nary ability. Xorah thinks I will be quite a mushed cook in time, ltiis is nice, and if wo had some Elmwood cream it would bo all to do desired. You like it? I am glad. I want you to tell me now the cause of your serious face. It looked ever so long when I came In.' I am the least bit unxious about you. I fear you are losing the old strength you used to boast of. Don't shake your head so decidedly, I see with an experienced eye. I saw how that ring slipped about when you were pouring this coffee, and seven months ago, when I put it thero, Margaret, it was very tight and snug. I want to see it so again. You need the country breezes. I know that Klmwood is tne magical medicine which your case demands, and if I prescribe it, I don't believe you will find it so bitter to take. " 'And you?" she askeJ, after a mo ment's silence. "That is to be just as you say, Mar garet" "Then." she returned with aradUnt taot, "we will both go home." when wllson learned ol this decision, The fascinations of New York have been exercised in van,' ho declared. "I think you will find something to regret when you have gone from us. Still I am sure you will reali.o a much needed benefit, and in view of that I must be glad that you will so soon enjoy the pleasure of the country. I hope you will not quite forget us. I will never forget you, was the im pulsive answer. "The servico you have rendered Brian I cannot even realize, much less thank you lor. The most I can do is to give you a place among the friends I cherish most highly. Brian and I will hope to see you quite often. I know you will like Elmwood. It Is so beautiful. I never knew how much I longed to see It until this moment. I believe I haven't dared to think. The other day I took a long ride on the Madison avenue cars, just for something to do, and when we got out in the nine ties there was a real littie bit of country before us. l eould not stay m the car. Tho sun really seemed so much brighter: and when I heard the hens and saw the ducks and geeso walking along the narrow pavements I wanted to sit down ana cry. Wilson smiled. "Did you think better of the impulse?" he questioned. Oh, yes. Fortunately, I oame upon a woman sitting on the grass with the whitest, fattest baby I almost ever saw. adore babies, and I began to admire that one extravagantly. The mother was delighted, and by way of recom pense, l presume, gave me a detailed history of the seven fatter and whiter ones which had preceded this one. By the time she finished I had forgotten that I ever wanted to cry." ho tne oaoy proved an effective anti dote. You were very fortunate in vour meeting. Now, I believe I must hurry away. I could only steal a moment just to run in to say good-by." i aon t Deiieve you have stayed that moment," complained Margaret, "and I am sure if you were very anxious vou could stretch It just the least bit. Brian win be so sorry not to have seen vou. Are you so very busy. Doctor?" wen, rather, was the half hesitat ing reply. "Summer Is near at hand, and that is a time of wretchedness ;or the unfortunate poor. I wish we had a larger corps of free doctors. We certainly need them in those crowded, mis erable districts, where the white crape ana liny nearses tell tnetr own story of suffering and death. I have brought a Bhadow to your face; I will say no more." 'You are merely giving mo a glimpse of the other side of life," she said thought, ully. "I find the contrast, as usual, sad and strong. I wish the world was different. I wish wo lived urAler Bellamy's order of things." v lison smiled, l rear such order is too Utopian ever to be realized," ha an swered. "Perhaps, though I dare say Are you really going? Well, then I must say good-by. I hope it is not necessary ior mo to repeat the assurance that Elmwood always holds a welcome for you. I thank you ,or your good wishes, and 1 wiah you to remember that I ntreclate more than I have nower to ex press the happiness you have helped o give me. "No more," said Wilson, with nainful rbruptness. "My service is not worth ,uch mention. Without another word ho pressed her land and was gone, leaving her rather iurpnsea at nis unusual manner. CHAPTUK XXI. ELMWOOD AOAI.V. Margaret had finished her breakfast, ind even after Briaii had loft she still at over the table, her heart filled with . tweet content, and her eyes dim with ne nappy tears tnatsiiut from her vision he familiar ob eels about hor. For she was home. Home in dear old Elmwood. And now, after eating what she deiared to Brian to be her biggest breakast in three months, she wanted to sit still and feast her eyes upon the smooth reen lawns where tho bright sun sifted

itself through a luxuriant network of gioou brunches, and the lilac and tho hawthorn were bursting into a breath of fragrant flowers, an.l say to herself it is good to be here. She repeated the eahie words to Brian when ho enmo in at luncheon, and he, looking at her face, almost marveled at. the change ih;ii, had tome over it. "I daro say, you are right, Margaret; it is good for you to be here. I don't believo I exaggerate when I declare that there is already some color in your cheeks. What have von been doing w .th yourself this morning . " "I don't believe I can l ogin to toll you. First, there ins so much to talk alioul with Mr. Dav s. We have been laying our heads together nml evolving some delightful plans. You will see tho results after awhile; an I then, this afternoon I must go to The Cedars. I ata pitting for a sijlit o. the Colonel." "And he, no doubt, is pining for n sight of you. I suppose that will complete your happiness." "As neatly ns it, can I e completed, Do you remember how we left Elmwood, Brian, under tho chili and cold of winter, and we return to it in tho joy of a glad restirrooton.' I a.-eept it as an ocien, and I am very happy." She left 1ho table with these words and walked to the op.-n window. Brian followed her. "Let me sharo your happiness," ho said, in a low voice. "Darling, the probation has been very long." He slippod his hand about hor waist, and drew her to tho veran la outside. "You remember our compact? I shall keep It bo sui e of that until the day comes that you shall bid me break it, And it will come, Margaret, as cert i inly as we both stand here. You will tlnd mo very patient until I have won my vi-itory, for I foel that even the price which Jai ob paid ior Kacliel is not loo dear to pay for you. Now, may I tell ycu what I have been doing to-day?" "Yes; I shall like very much to hear." "Wdl, I have been taking with Dr. Philips. I wish you would let me 6eo your face, Marguret. It will be more encouraging than your back. There, that is better; thank you. I saw Dr. Philips, as 1 said, and 1 told him of my wish to build up a practice hero. Just as I expected, he feels his advancing years, and will be very glud et a young assistant. He is delighted to help the son of his old partner, he tells me. So yo;i see I am particularly fortunate. I can step right into his shoes, and, though I may find them very large " "You will grow," put in Margaret, glr.d of this now turn to the conversation. "And I am very much pleased," sh'j added, more gravely. "So am I. It is tho first step toward winning my wife." A hail hour later Margaret was sitting in the chair of honor in Alico's rooms, half-laughing, half-crying, and trying to ask and answer questions In the same breath. "I'm going to keep you a fow minutes ail to myself," declared Alice, "because I have so much to tell you, Margaret. So much I could only hint at it in my letters. I could not express one-half the happiness I longed for you to share." "I am so glad, dear," .Margaret answered. "So very glad for you and for Bertie, roll m all about it now." It was fully fifteen minutes beforo Alice sent tho message telling her uncle that Margaret was there. It brought the Colonel in very quick time. "Oh, Colonel," she cried, and the next second sho was folde:! in his arms. "Back again, Margaret. I am so glad, child. This timo wo mean to keep you. Bless your dear heart; it does my eyes good to see you. Even though you have grown so thin and your face Is as white ns our own snow-balls." "Colonel, you hurt my vanity. I shall grow wonderfully fat ami well in a few weeks. You won't know mo. Brian thinks I have some color already. " "Brian! Let Brian go to the devil! I beg your pardon, my dear. I see I have horrified you. I am not overpleased with Brian, as you may guess. I dare 6ay you find excises for the scamp, however. I a:ii glad he has somo grace left. You women can usually manage men. I was getting ready to come and shoot, him, but I must acknowledge that your method has been more effectual." "He is growing tired of doing nothing," she nnfwoied, without meeting the Colonel's glance, "and he has decided to practice his profession here. I daro say ho will become as highly respected as dear uncle Stephen was." "Highly respectod! Fiddlesticks! There it is again, Margaret. The outcome of prejudice, most probably. I beg your puidon a second time, and predict that Brian will become all that you want to make him. If he doesn't I'll " "Shoot him, I suppose," put in Margaret, with laughing eyes. "That would bo a fatal blow to my hope;. I beg you you will spare me the humiliation of failure, And please give Brian crodit on his own account." "Certainly, my dear, all ho deserves; though I must add that I don't consider the demand excessive. Alice, isn't that that your rascally husband bawling down-stnirs? I hope you have no intention of going to him. Let him use his loT..g legs and come up to you." "He is using them," obseived Margarot, smiling at the long, heavy strides ascending tho steps. "Alice, don't be jealous, please, if I say that Bertie is one ot tho nicest men in this world." "Thanks ior tho compliment, which wasn't intended for my ears. I just hep.rd from our groom that you had condescended to honor us wiih a v.sit. " And Bertlo burst Into the room. "It is so natural to find you here," he added. "Father feels ten years younger from your very presence. And you are looking bettor much better than when I saw you last, though you might still be the original of Tennyson's '0 rare, pale Margaret.' " "Nonsense," interrupted the Colonel, rather testily. "Don't be a fool, Bertie. What a long tongue you have. " "You boo, Margaret," observed Bertie, with laughing eyes, "my appreciative father still allows his admiration of my talents to surprise him into little affectionate speeches. You must not think anything of it. He is very proud of me." "Humph!" was the eontenq uous reply, at which Margaret and Alice laughed. Throughout tho visit the cheerful badinage continued, and when she was ready to go home, after not a little pressure to stay longer, Ber ie declared his intention of rid ng with her. "It was so g 'Od of you to come," Bho said, after they had left The Cedars and ho nad expressed his pleas un in Brian's (hanged conduct. "Vou knew I had something to say to you." "Your eyes tell all yoiir secrets, Margaret. hut is that something?" "Can you not guoss? It aUccts Brian and you. You have always been such goorl Irienils until very lately, mi l 1 am so anxious for tho.-o olo feelings to bo renewed. Tho circums aneex o your last meeting wore notvery pleasant. He will remember thin, and perhaps you will remember it 1oo. I am (.oing to ask you to forget it. When 1 n. all nil that you have done for me before, 1 fool perfectly confident lhal y.m will 1 ot refuse this favor. Vou understand me, I am sure?" "I nderstand! Who can fail to understand su h goodness as yours? When I think of that, it is all the hauler to forget the Buttering he has caused you. Perhaps I cannot promise, Margaret," "oh, yes, you can. The suffering you spenk of may have been of great advantage. I may become the bettor and the stronger for if . Besides, ilriun lias struggled and suffered too. Yoi eim never know how much. Even 1 can never know how inu h. Ami he s trying now. For that he deserves credit. I tb nk you will have to do as 1 wish. Bertie. Indeed, 1 am sure you will." "There, I havo nothing more io soy. You always have your way. I dare say we don't realize what, Brian had t

overooroe before he won bis vlotryt and as far as my words or actions are conoernod, he shall havo no reminder of tho past." "Thank you," was tho grateful answor. I never liked you better or admired you more han 1 do now, " He sullied his response as they turned In at the gates of Elmwood. As they approached the door .Margaret saw Brian waitiiiii to meet her. Ho hi d evidently not expected to aoo Bertio, and Margaret, noticed a slight embarrassment upon his face. "I have Bertie with me," sho Bidd, riding close to him. "He has come all the way from The Cedars to soe you." "Little hypocrite," murmured Bertie under his breath. "Don't you think It wrong U tell libs?" The next second he had assisted hor from hor horse and turned to Brian. No wonl passed between them, but their hand-da p held a language and a meaning of Its own. (TO UK CONTINUED.

CANDLES FROM PLANTS. Vegetables Which Hear Wax and Tallow -Fuv: About Camphor. Several very curious suhstanees of an inlluininabie nature are produced by plant s, said a naturalist to a Washington Star writer. Mauy vegetable species bear wax, which in the form of minute scales on the surface of the plum and other s'onc fruit makes what is called the "bloom." It exists so abundantly in the fruit of a Virginia iiiytlc that the latter lias received the name of "candle berry." These berries are collected in great quantities for their wax and candles made from them burn Willi rcuiaivaI blc brightness and freedom from j smoke, at the same time giving out I a pleasant fragrance. A wax-bearing ; tree exists in South Africa, the 1,-er-! ries of which yield a substance winch i is made into candles by the Dutch, j There are several species of wax ! palms in South America. One of them has its leaves covered with scales of wax, while the trunk of another kind is covered with the wax as with a varnish. A substance very like tallow is yielded by a tree in China, the seed vessels of which are hard, brownish husks. Each of them contains three round white kernels, about the size and shape cf hazelnuts. These kernels have small stones inside them, around which the fatty matter lies. From the pit of the stone an oil for burning in lamps is pressed. Almost all the candles used in the south of China arc made from this vegetable tallow. A tree abaunds on the Malabar coast of India called the "piney" which bears a pulpy fruit that yields a great quantity of solid tallow approaching wax in firmness and superior to animal fat for the manufacture of candles. Another remarkable inflammable substance secreted by plants is camphor. It is chiefly obtained irom a species of laurel native to the East Indies. In preparing it pieces of the roots are put int: an iron vessel tightly covered. When the vessel is heated the camphor rises In the form of vapor and is condensed on the cover. That is the primitive method, at all events, though I believe that it is Improved upon by newly invented processes. In old trees the camphor is sometimes found, when the trunks are split open, in a very pure state, forming small concretions or "tears." Faraohute Descent. "What does it feel like in a parachute?" "Well," replied Parachutist Spencer, "thai; depends when you mean. Vou go up without a oar, sitting on a kind of a strap arrangement for a seat, and with the bar of the parachute seat so arranged about you that all you have to do In order to let yourself go is to swing on it clear of the trap seat of the ballo.in. The parachute, perhaps yo i know, is li.jhtly attached to the side of tho balk on, and when tho whole weight of the body comes on the parachute seat tho whole arrangement breaks away and down you go. As you go up and miss the friendly ear ,ou feel a little lost at finding nothing between your dangling legs and the bij,, distant earth beneath. But that's nothing to tho feeling when the time comes to let yourself loose from the old balloon. You know you're high enough but let's wait a second or two longer, you think a hundred feet or so can't make much difference. Now we're going too high, it's i:o good, you'd better make up your mind to it. So you set your leet'i tight together now go! Ger-r-r-r-ah-r-r-r Ah-h-h.

I think that's all." An Important Umlsftlon. The mother's suspicions were aroused, says the Detroit Free Press, and that night, when the voung man left the hous') and the daughter camo up stairs, she interviewed her. "Elizabeth," she said, sternly, "didn't I hear Mr. Sniiploy kissing you in the parlor ns I came along the hull?" "No, minima, you didn't," responded the daughter emphatically. "Well, didn't he try to kis you?" persisted the mother. "Yes, mamma," demurely. The mother spoko triumphantly. "I knew it," she said. "Did you permit him to do so?" "No, ma'am, I did not I told him you bud always taught me that I should not permit any young man to kiss me." "That was right, that was right, my dear." said tho mother encouragingly.. "And what did he say to that?" The girl blushed, but was undaunted. "He asked me. if you had ever told me th it I was not to kiss a young man. " The mother began to reel that possibly she had omitted a vital link in tho chain of her instructions. "What did you tell him.-" she i.sked nervously. "I said I didn't remember it If you had." The girl stopped, and the mother hro :e out urgently. "Well, goon goon." "I guess that's what you heard, mother!

A Few Ki flections Upon KIglit. It is night;. A policeman awake! with a suddon titnrt and moves around tho comer, having a secret fenr at his heart that he luul slept through all that night, all next, day and fur into to-morrow night. I ; is night iii n great city. Tho poker and ft.ro-rooms are iu full blast. 10,00(1 loafers are holding down street corners, an 1 hero and there an intoxicated Alderman can be. seen making his way to a policy shop or a gathering of tho pavement ring. Under cover of darl ness, iirst manufactured over 0,000 years ago, tho hotel beat lowers his d'u s from tho fourth-story window; all who -iave dead-head tickets htart for the oper.t-house.s; hundreds of Young men soi oic; to spark; reporters look forward to fires, robberies ami murders, and church choirs meet to reiiearte and wrangle and lay up clubs for each other. ' Tis night in the country. The stock lias been fed, the squeil of the pig is hushed, and the tired horse mnn-.hes at bis corn and wonders why his master throws in so many coin without a kernel on them. The watch dog sits a the gate, perfectly willing to chew up imy of the neighbors for a cent, nnd within tho fnrm-houso all is serene, or would lie if J( hn Henry could lind the greiftte for hei boots, Mary Ann could lind her novel, the old man discover tho hiding-place of the bootjack, and the mother solve tlio mystery of how some of her neighbors managed to get a dress costing 2 shillings per vard while slu) bad nothing b it calico. 'Tis night Oil the ocean. Tho proud Ktoamor sails irallantly on and on, tho Captain snoring ia his berth, the mate playing eucliei', tho lookouts asleep, and everything in readiness to swear, in case of oollisicn, that it was all the other vessel's fault. Nothing is heard but the steady beat of the propeller, tho groans of the immigrants and tho voices of men and women declaring that anybody who plans an ocean voyage ior pleasure ought to bo shot to death with codfish balls. The sportive dolphin gambols away his hard earnings, the whale rolls ovr for another nap, and the business-l;ke shark follows in tho wnko to pick up any opportunities! which may tumble overboard. 'Tis night on the JJprairie. The ree'. men gather xbout the camp-lire to count tho seal is they have taken within the last week, and to grumble at the Government for not furnishing them port wine tin I repeating rifles. Tho white hunter and trapper curls himself up to wonder where he can find old Ikuics for breakfast, and to re;',;e what a fool he has made of himself, and the gaunt wolf shoulder;, his cWpty stomach and sets out, in search of something to make life worth living for. Night grown apace. In the city the weary wife tal es her place in the hall with club in lima. Inthe country the old folks full into bed aweary with the work of the df y, and the young people (park and chew pop-corn. On the ocean the sea-nickers continue to grow worse, and the songs of the mermaids fall flat.

Authorship of the Book o! Mormon, The Prt tibytcrian Observer throws a new light on tho authorship of the liook ol Morn on. The book, it says, has commonly been credited to the l!ev. Solomon Spalding, a Presbyterian minister -a roman 1 purporting to give the origin and history of tho American Indians. He sought to lind a publisher lor this story in Pittsburgh, but was unsuccessful. The author died a few years later. The manuscript of this story unaccountably disappeared, though it was generally believed that on-' Sidney lliafdon, a printer, afterward a Mormon His (top, got-possession of tho same, altered and added to it, and. thus altered and amended, was sent forth to the world as tlio Mormon Bible. This point is expl di ed by the following letter from Mr. James Jaffries, of Harford County, Maryland, whoso boyhood was spent a few miles from l'ittaburrh. He says: ""I know more about the Mormons than any man east of the Alleghanies, although I lmve given no at1e itien to the matter for twenty-live years. I did not know I was in possession of any information concerninrr the origin of tho liook of Mormon unknown to others. 1 supposed that t.s liigdon was so open w.th me, he had told others the same things. Forty years ago I was in business in St. Louis. The Mormons then had their temple at Jiauvoo, Illinois. I h(.d busi:ie-s transactions with them. Sidney liigdon I knew very well. He was general manager of tho uli'airs of the Mormons, liigdon, in course of conversation, told me a number of times that there was in the printing orlice, with which lie was connected iu Ohio, n manuscript of llev. Spalding's, tracing tiie origin of the Indian race from the lost tribes of Israel ; that this manns i-i it was in the ofliee for several years; :hat he was familiar with it; that Spaldilg had wanted it printed, but had not lind the means to pay for the printing; t .iat hc'ltigdoni and Joe Smith used to look over the manuscript and read it over on Sundays. Ilig.lon and Smith took the manuscript and i a d : 'I'll pr lit it,' and went off to 1'almyra, New York. I never knew this information wis of any importance; thought others knew of theso facts. I do not now think the matter is of any importance. It will not injure Morruouism. That is an 'ism,' and chimes in with tho wishes of certain classes of people. Nothii'ig will put it down but the strong arm of tho law." Ho Tlluusht Out l.oud. The lato Dulse of Cambridge was in Hie lial it of thinking out loud, so to (peak, and there wcm times when his audible expressions of opinions was at least inopportune. It is related of him by a London journal that during divine Service, whenever the rector said "Let u pray," his r.iyal highness would an(iwer in a voice audible throughout the church, "Aye lo be sure; why not?" Once at the opera, after tho duke bad Mvept the house with his glasses, lie called out in a lone that reached from pit to dome, "Why, I declare, there are not half a dozen pretty siifls in the house not half a dozen, not half a doseu."
