I re-entered; the deserted drawing room. i "She is only fifteen." she murmured, in a tone little resembling that- in ! which the "great girl of fifteen" had been exhorted to better ways. "Only tilteen and there are yet' three full years before she need be presented to : the world. Hut what if she gees on as she is doing now? .'o, she wiil not, she must not. No, we shall see a change ere then. She will tone down. ' soften, grow less wild and eareies-. ;ni- ! prove in shape.

After her own fashion, my child is grace itself; "ami if only she would not overdo it. and wo ild not, make herself such a guy -but, however, I suppose she will meet nobody, and the : ervants inns': bo uoeastouicd to her ways by this time and she is a dear child.jnnd would obey me if I seriously dBsiro'd her td do anything, so Why should I thwart her in a t itle?

And really, con.-i ieriug that I was both able and wil ing to undertake the charge, she need not have wished to see rue laid on the shelf quite so soou " And tho old lady drew herself up and bridled, although she was alone, and no one could have the benefit. She was not really old, being only a little over tiO, and w'as still handso'i e, cheerful, humorous, oversowing with energy ana with an acklowledged zest for neighborly intercourse, pleasant scenes, summer galas, and winter dinner j arties. Above all. however, did sho affect the London season on the tlowery, showery Mav days, when the luster is yet upon it: when the a aleas and hyacints in the parks are still more orniiant than the many-tinted throngs j around them: when the shop winnows I are gayest and the roar of wheels is loudest, and even the dingiest, dustiest j alloys in the background put out their little Dower-pots and make a feint of enjoying life. It was the thought of all j tins, and mo prospect oi some day returning to take her art in it, which, more than any matronly anxiety, occasion!found vest in remonstrances such a- those with which our i-luipier opens; it. was the ftetera ii ation that in duo time the heire-s should be by nil the world admired, honored and e; chance envied, which made her every now and then discontented with the humble pleasures and modet aspirations of her darling. Tor Jorry hated the very idea of London. She had never been therevowed ;-ho never would go there. What did she want with a dirty, smoky old town, with nothing but ro', s of houses, shrieking underground trains, rattling ouiuibv.ses, and every kind of horror? Oh, sho krew she had hoard about it all: It was all very line for granny to svnilo. Sho always knew that "grown-ups" liked towns, and she could remember how, as a child, sho had been used to see the men servants and maid-servants in high glee when the time came for going into F. linburg for tho whiter, and how she hud been by them instructed that it was very silly and naughty for her not to be glad, too, when sho ought to be thankful and proud that her papa Lad a fine 1io,im' in Moray l'laeo to take her to, in-toacl of having, as many rai as had. to stop all the year round in the nasty, cold, wet Highlands, where there was no one to Ijj seen, and not a s hop nor a kirk to be reached, once the weather tiu'im 1 bad. That was what the stupid maids had said, wh n all they wanted was to get to Hdinburg to seo their stupid sweethearts. She knew better. It hud been nothing but "you must do this," and "yon must not do that." from the moment sho had arrived it. Moray I dace. Sho had not been allowed to stir outsido tho doors, be the day ever so fine until Katio ha 1 been free to at t en 1 her: sho had not been allowed to give her dog a run without putting oji hut gldvos, and even boots. There had been no rushing lound stables, and kennels, and gardens in the dusk after lessons: no dairy, no poultry-yurd to take refuge in: no hens, no pigeons, no young rabbits nor ferrets to feed: no anything. Ten to one when she hud been let loose from the school room it had been. "Miss Gcra'dine, your miimm:i wishes to see you in t lie drawing room: sho has ladies with her." Aiid, of course, nothing had been worse than that. Now at Inchmarow there was a'ways something to do or to see new puppies, or chickens, or romothing. And there was the shore: and on the shore there was always something. And j there was her pony. ' But Geraldine was not prone to d well upon the pony, for in her heart of I hearts the young horsewoman was j aware that if the truth w.s out, her j rides at Inchmarow over a rough, hilly j district, arnl alwav,. along one monotonous road, with only a choice I etwixt turning to the right or the left us the rider emerged from the lodge gate, would ill bear comparison with tho grand sweep of country to be traversed in all directions round tho Heart of Midlothian. It had been enough ttiut she could affect to add this to nor list of grievances: and so it had gono in with the rest, and helped to add up tho sum total. Yes, sho had hated Edinburgh, and she was sure, eiiite sure, sho should hate I ondon e (itally. if not more. In vain granny had protested, dilated and assured. Jerry lad invar ably listened with as ranch intention ot being onvin, cd, mid ef budging one hair's breadth from her position :is u young mule and by this time every one know with w hom lay the reins of j lower at n'hii:arew la.

Bit by bit granny had yielded on almost c.ery contested point, until at
last it had eo;ne about that even the spoilt child herself was fain to be gei:.ero.is. and at times ashamed. For Geraldine had a liner nature than ha I ever yet been muni tested.

He was a ftimous fisherman, and so much devoted to angling that he was r gar cd by our juvenile llslierineu as a perfect walk ng (or boatingi editiob of 1 auk Wa ton. On a fine spring morning about two years since, 1 started, In com pany with a party of friends, for the Little 1 ails of the I'oloinac. We were 'prospec, ing' the chances of luck lisii. belter known In your latitude as 'stripe ; bass.' It was quiet early in the season, but not to i early for Judge Uibb. lie had arrived long 1 efore us, and sat upon a ledge of ro k, rod in ha tl the very picture of sent nel patietue unrelieved. Hailing him from a distance, I asked, with liic natural instinct of a lishcrnian: "What uck, Judge?' " 'Luck, sir? worst luck in the world, sir; been ilsliing here lor four hours, and haven't had a nibole:' " 'What bait are you using?' ' 'Capital bait; live frog, sir.' "I ventured to suggest, mildly, that perhaps dive fr g' was not such very capital bait,' w creupon the Judge burst forth: 'Don't tell me, sir! you can't teach mo anything, . sir! Don't 1 know? Hest bait in the world, s'r; only the lusk; awful luck! four hours without a nibble.' "fly this time we had reached the Judge's position, und while preparing our tackle Mr. D , one of the parly, observed a frog sitting on the bank, within a few feet of the Judge. Mlid he: ' 'Judge let me catch a fre-di bait fory ;u. 1 see a frog on the bank cl jse bes de you. ' "Thank you, sir: I wish you would catch that frog, sir. It's been staring mc in tbe face ull the morning. 1 ' cllcve it knows that t have one of its family on my hook. Ha: ha! ha' Catch it, sir; by all pica s, in ten it.' "Mr. H shortened li s rod and cautiously striking with the -harp end, pinned the frog through one of its 1) I nd legs. Just then, as Mr. II was lifting aloft his prize, the Judge began winding up his reel an i uttered a joyous cry. "Hold still, sir! Keep quiet! I've got a bite!' "Ilapidly wound the wheel, rapidly can e in the slackening line, till the last tew yard, of it floated upon the surface of the stream; and then with a face that boded thuuder, the Judge turned to Mr. 1) . " 'Why, sir, you caught my fro,';' "And so it was.

Theodore Hook. Tim fact In that during the twenties arid thirties, the years ;f Hook's fame and fo; tun , the country was very badly off for novelists, ami espeaially for novelists of modern and contemporary life. Nearly all Scott's best wore written, and Miss Austen had ceased to write when Hook began; Dickens had but just appeared, and Uulwer not long, when Hock died. ,'eott's line was different. Miss Austen had made no school, and though novels were being written in ever-increasing numbers, their writers
were for the mo t part all abroad in the novel proper. They could not get out of tho tradition of yielding and .Smollett, it'elf a survival of the picaresque romance Although the life of their heroes and heroines was suppased to be modern and actual, it had to bo spiced with adventures and adjusted to a sort of Odyssey, comic or tragic, as the case might be, watered with the tears of sensibility or loused by the guffaws of (road larco llxcept Miss Ati-toii, nobody had yet dared with conspicuous genius and success to depict purely ordinary li to. Hook, for all his talent, all his facility, all his experience of the world, was certainly not the man to strike out the new lino. : It Is perfectly obvious, not mereiy j fiom his carelessness of style and I story, but from consideration of the ' life ho led, that ho must almost al- : ways have written in a scrambling hurry. Ho was, in fact, a born im- ; provisatorc, and I should imagine : t at the ".-'uyinKS and Doings" cost him vcrv little more labor or, in pro- ' portion, more time than the famous Impromptu comediettas which lie used to throw oil at rich men's dinners by way of payment for the claret and retainer for a further Invitation. Macmillen's Magazine. Tho Gold Sweaters. A stailling discovery was made in the Sub-Treasury this morning, and as a result all people are warned against the $20 gold piece, as the "sweater" is in town says the Cincinnati Times Star. Cashier Stout received a sack containing irlj.OOu In gold coin from a liank on Third Street As usual he neighed each piece before accepting it and found five double eagles each a dollar short Careful e animation shows that they had all been reunited. Hemllling gold coin is the latest trick of the men who llnd counterfeiting too dangerous. They go to a large city and deposit a sum ol money in bank and a few days later draw it, out in gold pieces. These they put into a lathe and trim off the milling, which they caretully put on again, gaining at least a dollar's wo: th of gold in the operation. As the coin is not mutilated, but only slighiy reduced in d ameter, the coins are readily passed on the stores and in market, where money is not weighed when received. Tbe wife of the "sweater" makss trilling purchases at the stores with them, and the good money received in exchange is rebanked and drawn out in gold again. Thus the capital is kept, turning over at a lively rate, c nstantly growiug, at a f-'ight ri-k of detection. A diligent 'Sweater" can clear from?.oto 475 a day easily. These are the first indications that Cincinnati has been worked, but f:om now on all double eagles are under suspicion. Tho Professor's Chicken This may not, bo new, but it "as new to the reporter who overheard it on an liast Providence car, Sunday, so it is likely that there arc others w ho havo never heard It The young man who told it was evidently a collegian, as was his companion: "I heard a good one on Professor , of Andover." he said. "What was it?" qr.ericd the other. "Well, you know, he was married during the winter and went to housekeeping lust outside the village Thlspring he thought he would add a few bens to his stock: he already had a dog. He set a couple of hens and in time bad two large broods of chickens. He was very proud of them, but in a week or so the hens began todie He called in a neighbor to look at the chickens and oiler advice. They were certainly a pretty scaly lot of chickens that the neigiibor viewed. They were skinny looking a d appar ently without ambition. ' What do you feed them'' asked the neighbor, after a brief survey. " 'Feed ttiem-' responded the professor, as though he didn't hear arii. lit 'Why I don't feed them any thing. 1 thought the old hens had milk enough for them.' " SCIATIC RHEUMATISM. How a Promturut Keatncklan Suffered, with It His Cnro a Marvelous One. Tew men In Kentucky uro better known than lion. John &i. ilice, ef Louisa, Lawrence County, late Circuit Jutlse of thj Sixteenth Judicial District of Kentucky, and few mon In lhat or any other Stat-.' have p'issou through a inoro reiuarkabto experience aud live to tell the tale. About six years aiu ho was attacked with sciatic rheumatism, which developed so fast that he soo.i lost alt Control of 'it i legs, ills whole systaia became derailed ;iml ho was Indeed a physical wreck. The muscles cf his limbs Mere reduced byatrophy to mero string, and ho felt that his life was gradually wearing away. Eminent physicians were consulted and all known means of relief employed without avail, and it lndeei seemed as tliouti Kentucky was to lose one of her most valued cltt7.eus. It was at this ttnio that Judge Itlce first heard of lir. Williams' i'lutc l'llls for Palo People. He promptly applied ihem to his own case, and as a result ho ts to-day a volt man. The (ffect of tho Pills w;is marvelous. JudKo Iiieo regained the power of his limbs, his appetite returned, and nature again performed her functions properly. Tho above case was Investigated and vouehoi for by the Covington Post, and stands as one of the most remarkable cures known In the annals of medicine. No discovery lit medicine has created more discussion, botti In medical circles nnd In tho newsp:l;ers, than Ir. Williams' I'luk Pilli. The ninny it rant kabte stcrlo-i that have been published of the cures effected by these pills havo brought them Into tho greatest prominence bo:h la tlit. country aiei abroad 'I hey havo been analyzed t.y some of the most eminent cbemIsts and it has been ascertained that they are an unfalllior specific for such diseases as locomotor atuxla. partial paralysis.

Good Logic. Forty years since, "Porto Crayon" was down on Albemarle Sound, und told a native that there wero men with mouths t ight inches wide. The native declared that was a iish-storv: Porto reproved him for his incredulity, and pointed out that deductions from known facts proved this statement. "Wo know," ho said, "that oysters must ho eaten wuold: we know that there aro oysters eight inches across the minor diincns'ons: tl:e:e!ore, there must lie mouths eight inches wide to take them in. or the beautiful chum of harmony iii the untvei'f? is I rokeib"

An Experiment In Co-operation. Agneta Park, near IDelfth, in Holland, is the result of an interesting experiment in co-operation. A trai t of ten acres lias upon it 150 houses, each with its little garden and with certain common buildings and common grounds. The houses aro occupied by the employes o' a groat distilling company, who form a corporation which owns tho park. Kach member owns shares in tho'oorporalion and pays rent for liis honso; tho surplus alter expenses aro paid comes back to him asdi vidends. f he wishes to go away or dies his shares aro bought up by the corporation and sold to tho man who takes his place. Irrlsal Ion. A correspondent says: "In irrigating you must use largo quantities oi w ater. A small quantity applied to the base of a plant is of no benolit. Tho rule I have found out is f.O gallons to the square foot of ground. With this quantity we can keep sweet peas growing and full of (lower the whole of the season. As a test 1 gave ono plot half the amount and lost them all. Give liberally or not at all. it would be better to give 101 irallons onee a week than to give 50 gallons twice a week."

By restorins the normal ac tion of the deransred ' organs and functions, it builds th: flesh up to a safe and healthy standard promptly, pleasantly and naturally. The weak, emaciated, turn, pale and puny are made strong, plump, round and rosy. Nothing so effective as a strength restorer and ilesh maker is known to medical science; this puts on healthy flesh not the fat of cod liver oil and its filthy compounds. It rouses every orpfan of the body to activity, purine?, enriches and vitalizes the blood so that the bod feels refreshed and strengthened. If you are tos thin, too weak, too nervous, it may be that the food assimilation is at fault. A certain amount cf bile is necessary for the reception of the fit foods in the blood. Too often tho liver holds back this element which would help d'srection.
