CHAPTlt iirill-Continued. And yet-suppose this hateful newcomer, the King; of the Ifain, whom ho had himself made Korong on purpose to ret rid of him more easily, and so had elevate ! into his own worst potential enemy-suppose this newcomer, the King of the Hain, wore bv chance to speak that other dialect of'tho bird language, which the Kin;; of the Birds himself knew not. but which the parrot had learned from his old master, the anc;ent Tu-Kiln-K'ila of other days, and in which the bird still recited the see rot of the sacred tree he might still have to fight hard for his divinity. He gazed angrily at tho bird. Methuselah blinked, and put his head on ohe side, ami looked craftily askance at him. Tu-Kiia-Kila hated it, that insolent creature. Was he not a god, and should ho bo thus boarded in his own island by a mere Soul of dead birds, a poor, wretched parrot? But tho curse: What might not that portend? Ah, well, he would risk it. Glancing avouud him oneo more to tho right anil left, to make siu-e that nobody was looking-, the cunning savage put forth his hand stealthily, und tried with s friendly caress to seize the parriot. In a moment, before he had time to know what w;is happening, Methuselah-sleepy old dotard as he seemei had woke up at once to a scuso of danger. Turning suddenly round upon the sleek, caressing hunl, ho darted his beak with a vicious peck at his assailant, and bit the divine lingerofthe Pillar of Heaven as carelessly as ho would have bitten any child on Boupart. Tu-Kila-Kila, thunde'.'-stvuckj drew back his arm with a start of surprise and a loud cry of pain. Tho bird had wounded him. Ho shook his hand and stamped. Bloo I was dropSing on the ground from t he man-god's nger. Ho hardly knew what strange evil this omen of harm might portend for the world. Tho t-'oul of all dead parrotB had carried out tho curse, and had drawn red drops from tho sacred veins of Tn-Kila-Kila. One must be a savage one's self, and superstitious at that, fully to understand the awful siynilieanee of this deadly occurrence. To draw b nod .rom a god, ar.d. above all. to let th:;t blood fall upon the dust of th ; "round. is the very wor.-t luck too awful for the human mind to contemplace. At the same moment, the parrot, awakened by the unexpected attack, threw oack its he:.d on its perch, and, laughing loud and long to itself in its own harsh way, began to pour forih a whole volley of oaths in a guttural language, of which Tu-Kila-h.'ila nor the Frenchman understood one syllable. And at the samn moment, too, Mr. Feyron himself, recalled from the door of his hut by Tu-Kila-Kilu'e sharp try or pain and by nis iiere sub ect s vol uble Bow of loud speech and'laus-hter. i ran lip all agog to know what was the ! matter. Tu-Kila-Kila, with an effort, tried to hide in his robe his w ounded hliger. But the Frenchman caught at tho meaningof the whole s. cue at once, and interposed himself hastily between the parrot and its assailant. ""He! my Methuselah," ho cried, in French, stroking the exultant bird with his hand, and smoothing its rnn'e I feathers, "did he try to choke you, then? Lid he try to get over you? " That was a brave bird. You did well, mon ami, to bite him! No, no, Life of the World and Measurer of the Sun's Course," ho went on, in Polynesian, ''you shall not go near him. Keep your distance, I beg of you. You may be a high god though you were a scurvy wretch enough, don't you recollect, when you wero only Lavita, the son of sami but arm rif .on,i l,,,t. I know vour tricks. Hands nff f.-nm birds. savX. A curse is on tho hcbrl nf ! 10 nCbd Of ! foil tried bow the ' the taoul of dead parrots. Y to hurt him. nnil aa Kn curse has worked itself out. Tho blood i ot tne great god, the Hilar of Heaven, has stained the gray dust of the island of Poupari." i Tu-Kila-Kila stood sucking his fin- '. ger, ana looking tho very picture of : the most savage shecpishness. cnAi-Tfia six. DOMESTIC BLISS. Tu-Kila-Kila went home that day in a very bad humor. The portent of'tho bitten finger had seriously disturbed him. For strange as it sounds to us, ne really Delieved himself in bis own divinity; and the bare thought that dab- ! the holy soil of eartn should be bled and wet with tho blood of a god gave him no little uneasiness in his own mind on his way homeward. Besides, what would his people think of it if they found it out? At all hazards almost, he must strive to conceal this episode of the bite from the men of Boupari. A god who gets wounded, and, worse still, gets wounded in the very act of trying to b oak a great taboo laid on by himself in a previous incarnation -such a god undoubtedly lays himself open to the gravest misapprehensions on tne part ot nis worshipers. Indeed, it. srna nt. awn pnRiin whntVia,,. people, if they knew, would any longer regard him as a god at all. The devo tion of savages is profound, but it is far from persona!. When deities nass so readily from one b.dy to anothor, you must always keep a sharp lookout lest the great spirit shoaltl at any minute have deserted his earth iy tabernacle, and havo taken un his abode in a fresh representative. Ifonor tne gods ny nil menus but make sura at the same time what particular house iney are just men inhabiting. It was the hour of siesta in Tu-Kila- ! Kila'stent. For a nhnrt htou-a in thr, I middle of the day, during the heat of : the sun, while n ire and Water, with their embers and their calabash, sat on guard in a porch by t ho bamboo gate. Tu-rlila-Kila, I'UJar of lioaven and Threshold of Earth, had respite for a while from his dailyatask of guarding the sacred banyan, and could take his ease after his moal in his own quarters. While that precious hour of taboo lasted, no wondering dragon or spirit of the air could nui-t the holy tree, and no human assailant dare touch or approach it. Even the dis-ease-makinsr gods, who walk in the rtilence, could not blight or wither At all other times Tu-Kila-Kila mounted guard over his treo with a jealousy that fairly astonished Felix Thurstan's ' soul: for Felix Thurstan onlv dimly understood i s yet how implicitly Tu-Kila-Kila's own life and office were bound up with tho inviolability of the banyan ho protected. Witntn tne nut. during that Play time of siesta, while the lizards .who are also gods ran up iJtd town tho wall, and puffed their orange throats, Tu-Klia Kila lounged at his ease that afternoon, with one of his munv wives tan and hoautitui Polynesian wo man, lithe and supple, as is the wont of her raco, and as o'xouisitlv formed in every limb and feature as a sculptui-ed Greek goddess. A graceful wreath of i crimson hioiscus adorned her shapely i head, round which her long and glossy black hair was coiled in great rings with artistic i,i-ofusion. A festoon of blue flowers and dark-rod dracaena I leaves hung like a chaulet over her : olive-brown neck mid .-welling best. One Dreadth of uaihe Hoiii di i .uty for an apron or girdle round her wai.-it i or Wpe. .all also was naked. Her j

plump, brown arms were set off by the groen and crimson of tho flowers that docked her. Tu-Kila-Kila srlunced at his slave with approving eyes. Ho always liked Ula: she plot-sod him tho best of all his women. And sh knew his ways, too; she never contradicted him. Among savapes, guile is woman's best protection. The wife who knows when to trive way with hvuoeritiral

Obedience, ana when to' coax or ! wheedle her yielding lord, runs the I best chance in the end for her life. ! her model Is nut the oak, but the wll- j low. She must be able to watch for rising signs Of ill-humor in her mas- j tor's mind, and guard against thorn i carefully. If she is wise he keeps out of her husband's way (v hen his auger! is roused, but sooths uud Hatters him to tho top of bis bent when his temper is just slightly or momentarily milled. "The Lord of Heaven and Karth is ill at case," I' la miuiui red, insinuatingly, as Tu-Kila-Kila winced on.o with tho pain of his swollen linger. 'What has happened to-day to tho Increase!' sf Bread-Fruit!' My lord is ead. His eye is downcast, Who has crossed my master s will? Who has darod to anger him?" Tu-Kila-Kila kept tho wounded hand wrapped up in a soft. leaf. Mko a wooly mullen. All tho wav ho;no he had been obliged to conceal it. and dissruise the pain ho felt, lest Fire and Wator should discover his secret. For he dared not let his people know that the Soul of all dead p:;rots had bitten his linger, and drawn blood from t he s tcred Veins of tho man-god. But he almost hesitated now whether or not ho should confide in Ula. A god may surely trust his own wedded wives. And yet such need to be careful women aro so treacherous! Ho suspected Ula sometimes ot being a groat doal to fond of that young man Toko, who used to be one of the t emple attendants, and whom he had given as Shadow accordingly to tho King of the Kuin, so as to get rid of him altogether from among the crowd of his followers. So ho kopt his own counsel for tho moment, and disguised his misfortune. "I have been to see the King of tho Birds this morning," ho said, in a grumbling voice, "and I do not like him. That god is too insolent. For my part I hate these strangers, one an I all. They have no respect for Tu-Kila-Kila like the men of Boupari. They are as bad as atheists. They fear not the gods, and the customs of our fathers are not in thorn." Ula crept near, with ono lithe round arm laid caressingly close to her master's neck. "Then why do you make them Korong?" she asked, with feminine curiosity, like some wife who seeks to worm out of her husband t he secret of freemasonry. "Why uo you notcook thorn and eat them at once', as soon as they arrive? They are very good food- so white and lino. This last newcomer, n.iw the Queonof the jiouas-wny not eat nor? bho is plump and tender. , "I like her, 'Tu-Kila-Kila responded, in a gioaung tone, "t hko nor every way. I would have brought her hero to my templo and admitted her at oneo to be one of Tti-Kila-Kilu's wives only that Fire and Water wo.iid not have permitted me. They have too many taboos, those awkward gods. I do not love them. But I make my strangers Korongs for a very wiso reason. You women are fools; you understand nothing: you do not know tuo mysteries.

Xot the great secret itself, of course the secret- on which hung the Death and Transmigration of Tu-Kila-Kila-oh, no: not that one.

"Here, drink some m.re kava," she cried, holding a bowl to his lips, and wheedling him with her eyes. "Kava is good; it is fit for gods. It makes them royally drunk, as becomes great deities. The spirits of our ancestors dwell in tho bowl; when you drink of the kava they mount by degrees into vour heart and head. They IV.t brave words. They givo vou thouirhts of heaven.

I Midsummer madness. lllgli Bred 1oes Mors Suhjoft to It than Common Curs 'or course yon know there is no connection between the hot weather and canine madness," said a Wash ington veterinarian in speaking to a 1'ost man the other day. "The dog days are a myth, for statistics have shown that rabies in dogs or any other animal does not depend on the heat for its development; but in fact, there are more mud dogs in Pans every winter, according to government statistics, than in the summer. But r.'. is tr. o, nevertheless that there Lave been a great many mad dogs in Washington lately. The iuosd of them are not recognized as such,- but they are real rabies nevertheless, and every time nowithat any one conies tome to attend a dog with a bona in his throat' I start out loaded to kill a niau flog if necessary. "The most people do not know it, but there are two sort of rabies, the dumb aud the raging. In the latter there is no mistaking the disease. The dog starts out to run amuck, and goes snapping and biting at, everything in sight till he falls exhausted. Hut the other variety is principally indicated by paralysis of the lower jaw, which makes the animal go about with his mouth hanging o,eii as though he had a bone in his throat. The disease does not seem to make the animal vicious, but he goes around looking for sympathy, rubbing ulfcctiouately against his master, aii-1 begging to be caressed. He will lick the fa- e and hands of bis owners, if allowed and the virus is as easily transmitted in this way as through a bite, should the subject of the caress have any cut or abrasion of the skin that the poison can reach The animal wilt try to drink, but cannot, owing to the paralysis of the throat muscles, and the madness is rareiy discovered till in the last stages. I have had several cas s ot this sort lately among the owners of line pet Cogs, but. of course, when the animal is killed the matter Is kept very iiuiet. Madness does not seem to be so common among the curs of the city as with the high-bred specimens." "Rather Interesting,'So far as man is concerned, the panther of India according to Mr. it H. Elliot, is practically harmless. In proof of this, or perhaps in illustration of it, he cites what he calls "rather an intere-ting incident" which happeucd at the house of one of his friends. "Kaiher interesting" wju probably seem a rather mild form of expression to some feminine readers. One nip,ht my hostess, sometime after retiring to rest, heard a noise in tho o,.ien verauda which runs round I tho s de of the bungalow just outside her bedroom, jn band went Mil- got up. and lamp round a corner ot the the direction of the building in sound. As she turned the corner there fell upon her astonished vision the spectacle of a panther devouring the family cat. Seeing the lady, the panther tried to make off along the veranda, which at that point was shut in by a trellis, but just then the cook, who also had hea d the noise, appeared at the opposite end of the veranda with a lamp in his hand. The pauth r turned back in the direction of the lady. She stood spellbound with the lamp in her hand, and as the cook, to alt appearance equally spell bound, remained stationary with his lamp, the panther found himself between two (Ires, and lay down under a table which stood against tho wall. At last ho got up, made a move in the direction of the cook, and then, changing his mind, rushed past the lady, and so effected his escap Household Furniture In Franco. In France, as in every other country, the style in which the house is lurnished depends largely upon the ti ste and ptuse of the housekeeper, writes Maria i'arloa In an Interesting article on "House Furnishing in Paris" in the Ladies' Home Journal.

Absolutely (lave Them n Ilieh Fall. A well-known Philadelphian, who in his youth was given a littlo to sport, has a particularly line boy who is very spirited. At school ho suffered verv much up to a few months ago from big - ger boys who abused and "pounded" pounucu him. Enjoining the lad to tho strict - est secrecy, the father employed a retired pugilist, a little bit of a fellow, und had him give tho boy lessons several timos a wook in boxing. At odd moments he practiced with the boy himself. Finally tho lad, with that assurance and sense of prowess which comes mitler such circumstances, wanted to be let loose, but the father held him back until he felt perfectly sat'slled. Not long ago, just as tho school was about to close he told his son to go ahead. An opportunity soon presented itself and it would be hard to describe tho sensation that followed, when the young whipner-snappor who had been taking thumps for a year or two sailed in and laid out completely two ot tho biggest bullies and braggarts in the school. Philadelphia Times. Baby's Sitting Posture; Careful mothers give much attention to the first sitting posturo of a child in the baby carriage, where tho continued motion may exert a wrong lnlluence on curving tho spine, says the Philadelphia Ledger. Miss Lind-1 ley, a physical eulturist. observes that "careful thought should bo given to the chair tnat succeeds the high chair at the table. This must have the seat of a length to correspond to the child's thigh from the back to the bent knee. Then the leverage of the spine in supporting the body in its correct sitting posture is brought trom tho extreme lower end, instead of at tho waist, as is tho case when tho chair is too deep for the length of the child's thigh, Tho back of the chair Bhould be straight instead of hollow.

Built a Aloauinent to His Recovery. A tiny nubble visible on a bare rocky dome to tho north represents an extraordinary proceeding on the part of a Massachusetts man, who came into the neighborhood of the mountain two years ago next summer and stopped at a farmhouse for the benefit of his health. He climbed the mountain daily for a couolo of months and on the top indulged in the pastime of pit-. ing up a monument of loose rocks. It is ten feet high and some of tho rocks ; are so large that ho must havo used skids and pries and labored with the energy of enthusiasm or despair. At all events, he built the monument, and it stands there now intact, and he went back to Massachusetts in better health than when he came. Where a Town Crier Is Heard.
