t:APTKK iv.-Contlnncd. As ire spolro. a sudden idea, suggested by his words, struck Felix's mind. Superstition is tho great Jov-r by which to move tho arivtltlo intelligence. Gathering V.p a few dry leaves and frairmShts of stick on the shore, h? laid them together in a pile, and awaited in silence the arrival of the foremost islanders. Tho first canoe advanced slowly and cautiously, the moll in it eying theso proceedings With evident suspicion: the rest huh;? back, with their srears in aVvay, nml thir hands just ready to ujo thr-ttt with effect shonla rmii"ion demand it. The l(Mdor of t he first canoe, coming efcse to the shore, jumped out umii the reef in shallow watr. H'alf a dozen of his follow"' jiimped after him without Hesitation, and brandished tjioir weapons round their heads as tuoy advanced, in savage unison. But Felix, pretending hardly to tinlc'6 i theso hostile dcmpnst''a,i?i',s, stepped boldly up toward his little 7i!o with I great deliberation, though trembling! inwardly, and proceeded before their i eyes to take a match from his bos, ! which he displayed ostentatiously, all guttering in the sun, to the foremost savage. The leader 6tood by and watched him close with eyes of silent wonder. Then Felix, kneeling down struck tho match on the lx?x, and bpplied it, as it lighted, ift the dry leave's beside him-. A chbru of astonishment burst Unanimously from tho doliirhcd natives as tho dry leaver leaped all at once into a torie of tlame, and tho little rtfiu caught quickly from the fire in mo vesta. The leader looked hard at the two white faces, and then at the fire oh the beach, with evident approbation. ''ItSs as Tu-Kll-Ki!a said," ho rrxclWYned at last With profound iwe. "They ai-e Bpirits from the sub, and they carry with them pure fire in shining" boxes." Thctt, advancing a pace and pointIn toward the eanoo. he motioned Felix and Muriel to take thoir seats within it with native savage politeness. "Tu-Kila-Kila has sent' for you," ho said, in his grandest aristocratic air, "for your chief is a gentleman. Ho wishes to receive you. Ho saw your message-fire on the reef last night,and he knew yttu had corno. He has made you a very great Taboo. He ha! put you' under protection of Fire and VTater." Thepowptein the boats, with one accord, shouted out in wild chorus, as If to confirm his words, ''Tabori! Taboo! Tu-Kila-Kila has said it! Taboo! Taboo! Ware iPtvo! Ware Water!" Though the dialect in which they spoke differed somewhat from that in use in Fiji, Felix could still rnak.? out with care almost every, itrtt'd of what the chief had sid to" him: and tho universal Polynesian expression, "Taboo," In particular, somewhat reassured him as to their friendly intentions. Among remote-heathen islanders like those, he felt sure, the very word itself was far too sacrod to be taken in vaifi; They would reepec its iuViolability. He turned round to Muriel. "It's our one chance left of life now. Don't be ttob terrified: there is still some hope. They say someboay they call Tu-Kila-Kila. has tabooed us. No one will dare' to hurt us against s" great a Taboo: for Tu-Kila-Kila is evidently some verv important king or chief. You must step into the boat. It can't be avoided. If any harm is threatened, be sure I won't forgot my promise." Muriel shrank back in alarm, and clung still to his arm now P.s naturally aa she would have clung to a brother's; "Ohj Mi-. TBurstan," she cried -"Felix-, I don't know what to say: I can't go with them." Felix put his arm gently round her girlish waist, and half lifted her into the boat in spite of her reluctance. "You must," he said, with great firmness. "You mast do as I say. I will watch over you and take care of you. If the worst comes, I have always my snue, ana i won t loract. .ow, friend hnT TS , lrleDU', I ah I hall-clad figures, "we are ready start We do not fear. We wish to to go. Take us to Tu-K lla-K 1 1 a. " And all tha savasres around, shoutingin their surprise and aw.Bj exclaimed once more lu concert, "Tu-Kila-Kila is great, Wo will tane them, as ho bids. torthwith to Heaven." "What do thev say'?" Muriel cried. clinging close to the white man's side in her speechless terror. "Do you un derstand tneir language ? "Well, I -?ff 'J1 i 1 d' ?uu?; ,bat ! b elix answerod is to say, not every- word ot it. Thov say they'll take us somewhere, I don't qiuto know where: but in Jri;ian, the word certainly moan to Heaven." Muriel shuddered visibly. "You don't think," sho said, wi;h a tremulous tongue, "they mean to kill us?" "No, I don't think so," Felix replied, not over-coufldently. "They said we were Taboo. But with savages like these, of course, one can never in any case be quite certain." CHAl'IEH V. ENROLLED IN OtYMPCS. They rowed across the lagoon, a mysterious procession, almo it in silence the canoe with tho two Europeans aromg lirst, the others following at a slight distance and 1 :nded at last on the brink of the central island. Several of the Boupari people leaped ashore at onco; then they helped Felix and Muriel from tho frail bark with almost deferential care, and led the way before them up a steep white path, that zigzagged through tho forest toward the center of tho island. As they went , a band of natives proceeded them in rogular lino of march, shouting "Taboo, taboo." at short intervals, especially as thoy noared any group of fan-palm' cottages. The women whom they met fell on thoir knees at once, till the strange procession had passed them by; tho men only liowed their heads thrice, and made a rapid movement on their breasts with thoir fingers, which reminded Muriel at once of the sign of tho cross in Catholic countries. So on they wended thoir way in silence through the deep tropical jungle, along a pathway just wide enough for three to walk abreast, till they emerged suddenly upon a large cleared space, in whose midst grew a great banyan-tree, with arms that dropped and rooted themselves like buttresses in the soil beneath. Under the banyan-tree a raised platform Btood upon posts of bamboo. Tho platlorm was covered with tine network in yellow and red, and two little stools occupied the middle, as if placed there on purpos and waiting for thoir occupants. The man who had headed the first eanoo turned round to Felix and motioned him forward. "This is Heaven," he said glibly, in his own tonguo. "Spirits aseond it!" Folix, much wondering what tho ceremony could moan, mounted the platform without a word, in obedience to the chief's eoininaml. closely followed by Muriel, who dared not leave him for a second. "Bring water!" the chief said, shortly, in a voico of authority to one of his followers. The man handed up a calabash with a little water in it. The chief took the rude vessel from his hands in a I

(reverential manner, and poured a few drops ftf t he ;eonUuits on Felix's head: ,Tno water trickled down over his hair 'and forehead involuntarily, Felixshook his head a little at tho unexpected wetting, and scattered tho drops riffht and loft on his neck and shoulders. Tho chief watched this performance attentively with profound satisfaction. Then ho turnod to his attendants. "The spirit shakes his head," ho said, with a deeply ( onvincod air. "All

is well. Heaven has chosen him, Korong! Korong! Ho is accented for his purpose. It is Well! It is well! Lfit us try the tHher one." Ho raised tho calabash once more, and poured a few drops in like manner on Muriel's dark hair. The poor girl, trembling in very limb, shook her heart afco in the same unintentional fashion. Tho chief regarded her with eti:l more complacent eyes. "It is well," he observed onco more to his companions, smiling. "She too, gives the sigh of acceptance. Korong! i K'orong! Heavou is well pleasod with both. See how nor body trembles! ' At that moment a girl came forward with a little basket of fruits. Tho chief chose a bananna with care from tho basket, pooled it. with his dusky hands, broke it slowly in two, and handed one-half verv salemnlv to i Felix, I "Eati King of the ifcdil," he 8aid as : he preseiHed it. "The offering bf i Heaven." , Felix ate it at onpe, thinking it best ; under the circumstances not to demur 1 at all W anything his strange hosts might choose to impose upon him. ' The chief handed tho other half just as solemnly to Muriel. "Eat, Queen of tho Clouds," ho said, as ho placed it I in her fingers. "The offer; rir ff iHeavoU;" I Mutip.1 hsttalea. She didn't know W hat His words meant, and it seemed to hor rather tho oiTering of a very j dirty and unwashed savago. The chief eyed her hard. "For God's sake eat it, my child: ho tells you to oat it it!" Felix exclaimed in baste. Muriol lifted it to her Hps and swallowed it down with difficulty. The man's dusky hands didn't inspire confidence. But.thfi chiflf seeiried i'e'lioved when ho had sien her swsdlow it. "All is W6U dune," he said, turning again to his followers. , '"Wo have obeyed tho Words of Tu-Kila-Kila, and his orders that ho gave us. We haveoffored tho Strangers, tho spirits from the sun; as a free gift to Heaven, and Heaven has accepted them. We have given them fruits, the fruits of tho earth, and they have duly eaten thorn. Korong! Korong! Tho King of tho Rain and the Queen of the Clouds have indeed come among us. They are truly gods. Wo will tako them now, as he bids us, to ru-iuia-ruia." 'What have they dono to us?" Muriel askod aside, ina terrified undertone to Felix. "I can't quite make out, Felix answered in the self-same voice. "They call us the King of th'e Rain and the Queen of the Clouds in their own language. I think thev imagine we've come from tho sun and that wo'ro a sort of spirits." At the sound of these words tho girl who hold the basket of lruits gave a sudden start. It almost seemod to Muriel as if sue understood thbm. But when Muriel looked again sho gave no further sign. Sho merely held her peace, and tried to appear wholly undisconcerted. Tho chief beckoned them down from the platform with a wave of his hand. They rose and followed him. As they rose tho Peoplo around them bowed low to the ground. Felix could see they were bowing to Muriol and himself, not merely lo tho chiof. A doubt flitted strangely across his mind for a momont. What could it all roeaa? Did they take the two strangors, then, for supernatural beings? Had they enrolled them as gods'? f f so, it might serve as some little protection for them. The procession formed again, throe and three, three and three, in solemn silence. Then tno cniel walked in front of them with measured steps, and louder-and louder thMc "IV i boo! Taboo." l'eoplo who met them foil on their faces at once, as tho chief cried out in a loud tone, ' The King of the Kain! tho Queen of tho Clouds! Korong! Korong! They are coming! Thoy arc coming:" At last they reacted a second cleared space, standing in a large garden of manilla, lorjuat, ponicans, and hibiscustrees. It was entered by a gate, a tall gate ot bamboo posts. At the gate all 1. . lolt. awe-struck. Onlv the chief went calmly on. He beckoned to Felix and M'riel to follow him. Thoy entered, half terrified. Felix still grasped his open knife in his hand, ready to strike at any moment that might be necessary. Tho Chief led them forward toward a very large tree near the centor of tho garden At tho foot of the tree stood a hut, somewhat bigger and better built than any they had yet seen; and in front of the trunk a stalwart savage, very powerfully built, but with a sinister look in his cruel and lustful oye, was pacing up and down like a sentinel on guard, a long 'spear in his right hand fand a tomahawk in his loft, held close by his side. -all ready for action. As ho prowled up and down he seemoa to be peering warily about him on cvory side, as if each instant he expected to bo set upon by an enemy. But as tho Chief approached, tho people without set up once more ,tho crv of "Taboo! Taboo!" and tho stalwart savage by the tree, laying down his spear and letting his tomahawk fall free, dropped in a second the air of watchful alarm, and advancod with somo eourtosy to greet the new-comers. "Wo have found them, Tu-Kila-Kila," the Chiof sai , presenting them to tho god with a graceful wave of the hand. "Wo have found tho spirits that you brought from the sun, with the fire in their hands, and the light in boxes. Wo have taken them to Heaven. Heaven has licceptod them. We have offered them fruit, and thoy havo oaten tho banana. The King of the Rain the Queen of the Clouds! Korong! Receive them!" Tu-Kila-Kila glanced at thein with an approving glaneo, strangely compounded of pleasure and terror. "Thoy are plump" ho said shortly. "They are indeed Korong. My sun lias sent mo an acceptable present." 'What is your will that wo should do with thom'?" the Chiof askod in a deeply deferential tcno. Tu-Kila-Kila looked hard at Muriel such a hateful look that the knife trembled irresolute for a second in Felix's hand. "Give them two fresh huts," he said, in a lordly way. 'Give them divine platters. Give them all that they need. Make everything right for thom." The chiof bowed and retired with an awed air from the presence. Exactly as ho passod a certain line on the ground, markod white with a row of coral-sand, lu-Kila-l"ila seized his spear and his tomahawk onco more, and mounted guard, as before, at the foot of tho great tree whore t hey had soon him pacing. An instantaneous chango soomed to Muriel lo come ovor his demeanor at that moment. While he sj:oke with the chief she noticed lie looked all cruelty, lust, and hateful self-indulgence. Now that ho paced up and down warily in front of that sa-

cred floor, peering a round him with keen suspicii m. he s'jemod lather the personification of watchfulness, fear, and a certain slavish bodily terror. Kspocially, she ohsciMul, he cast upon Felix, as ho went, a glance of angry hate: and yet he i ill not attempt to hurt or molest him in (my way, lic enceless as they 1 oth wen? )xfore thesd numerous savage.-: As t.hey emerged Iron t'n; . criclriuurc'i the girl with the iruit buskct stood hear the gate, looked outward fro:n the ivallj iier faced tiu'ucd .'.way from the awful lUMiic ol Tu-iClla-lcfli;, At the

Scotland The thistle was first adopted as a national emblem by the Scotch during the Danish invasion. The Danes thought it cowardly to attack an enemy by night, but on one occasion deviated from their rule.

Brooklyn Eagle, Copying from Xatnrp. That the (1 signer who copies from nature is the one that obtains success most readily cairn t be doubted. The days of copying from old designs are fast going, and now vhe designer who would keen up with the times must be as original as possible. This has been said many times before by many writers. .-The most unique: nuthod of designing from na ture, thus assuring originality, is a way wnich your correspondent has i:ad explained to him recently by ( ne of the designers in a Lawrence mill. This man h is designed fancy figured effects for intricate shawl patterns for many years. Since the advent ot the demand which calls for a closer imitation of nature in designing, this man has found it to be advantageous to copy from flowers His ability to copy offhand from a Mower model is deficient: so he does like this: lie gets a bunch of rosesor a twig of leaves and buds, and places these upon his design paper. A light pressure with the hand i!attens the objects upou the paper suiliciently to permit a true out line to be made of each leaf or (lower. This outline he makes by the use of a pencil. Then l:e is sure of getting the correct forms ot the figures. After he has made the outline of each leaf and (lower tho bunch is removed and ho proceeds to llll in the shapes. Then he checks off the risers and sinkers i.ccordlng to the outlined forms, and therebv is sure of getting the correct shares of the objects into his design This appears to b quito a n ivcl way of copying from nature. Any one can do this. Commercial Bulletin. Not Disguised A Walter Scol t party was to be given, each guest being expected to appear as one of the great novelist's characters.

Don't Eilame the Cook If a bakin g powder Is not uniform in strength, so that: the sams quantity will always do the same Work, no one can know how to use it, and uniformly good, ligl' t food cannot be produced with it All baking powders except: Royal, because Improperly compounded and made from inferior materials, lose tr eir strength quickly when the can is opened for use. At subsequent bakings there will be noticed a falling off in strength. The food is heavy, and th.'.: flour, eggs and butter wasted. It is always 1: te case that the consumer suffers in pocket, if not in health, by accepting any substitute for the P:oyal Baking Powder. The Royal is the embodiment of all the excellence that it is possible to attain in an absolutely pure powder. It is always stri:tly reliable. It is not only more ecpnomical because of its greater strength, but will retain its lull leavening power, which no other powder vill, until used, and make more wholesome food.

1 Calling Bidinarel; Naiaes. The following little story shows the celebrated statesman 1' 'incc Bisinarck In a pleasant, light, aad proves that the "Iron Chancello,', " as ho has been called, possesses at oart that can feel for an enemy in digress. One day, after a battle bn'.ween the Prussians and Austrians, c. irinp; the war of is(i, be was strolling about the camp, when he came uivm a num ber of his soldiers who had captured ; an Austrian peasant '.bey bad placed the unfortunate countryman in their midst, &u,A were be ttinghim unmercifully. Bismarck, then Co ant, hastened up to the croup, and at tin sight of him the soldiers stopped. 1 'Hullo! What's all this 3ln about? what's the matter now?" l e asked. ".Matter enoueh. The i olt called us names!" a score of v ilces answered; "and we are sho fvinp: bim how Prussians can puuist," added one bolder than the rest. "It's false!" cried outtb-3 prisoner, turninz to the Count, and t ot knowing who it was he acdresi ed. The newcomer's uniform insjrred him with the hope tbt he miitl.t be rescued from this persecution "I tell you 'tis false! I only called. Bismarck names! 1 assure you, flood sir, I only called Bismarck namci ." This daring assertion trought a loud roar of launhter froa his captors, who now looked inquirinirly at their chief for permission ;o renew their Hogging. Bismarck, pleased perhaps at the man's ca ndor, and aware that he was not recognized, only smiled, and said "Nay. let him go. He is not the first. Many, and greater ones than be. have called me names tefore." A Wonderful Cane Out In a Western reniten r fined a most ingenious oi l ary lsconminal.
