THE ENGINEER’S EAST BUN. wi *. t. vmarm. •* Pile in the diamond*, Tom. for the ran la long, And the Lake Shore train from the Beat i» »little late; And the minute we hear the tap of the depot gong The old girl wants to strike her liveliest gait The nightie as black as death, and the wind is in the west, And the sky above us is streaked with dusky bars; Whether it storms or not the night will be dark at beat, For that climbing bank of clouds is blotting out the stars. “ I wish we could start on time, Tom, for we’re pullin’ a heavy train— Three coaches, a smoker, two Pullman, baggage, express and mail; . .. . . And the old girl leans at the draw-bar as though she could feel the strain— I can see her holding her drivers awfully close to the rail. There goes the gong; look out, Tom, the signal is on your side. , ,' „ 'Afraid!’ I bear him; what does he signal ? ‘All right,’say youT ‘Go ahead!’ Now, giriie, we’ll give these folks in the sleeper an all-night ride, And we’ll laugh at the Mississippi era the eastern skies are red. “ Steady, old girl! Go easy; look out for yourself—don’t s'.ip; Look at you, now I Hold close- that’s right—there ain’t no hurry Just yet; Here’s a handful of sand for your drivers; it’ll help you to hold your grip— Look out for that- crossing—don’t stub your toeeasy, old girl; don’t fret. Nowthen, you run a little; we haven’t no time to dream; I’ll just let you take a six-mile gait till we’re wall outside of the yards; So we’re past Grand Crossing—now rush right along— Just help yourself to the steam, And we’ll give old Time and distance our swiftest and best regards. “ Ha, ha! Do you feel her quiver, Tom 7 It’s a little too fast, I know, She knows she has time to make up—she is running so wild, and so glad; And I haven’t the heart to hold her, Tom, when I see ehe wants to go; When I know by the throb of her nervous pulse that ehe wants to run so bad. “ It must be nearly morning, Tom, the night has worn away, But the skies grow blacker and darker, it seems, as the weary night wears on; And though I can tell by the smell of air that it must be nearly day, x , Yet the clouds have blotted out the stars that should pale in the early dawn. She shows two gauges, doesn’t she, Tom? thia light, I can’t half see— The very headlight shows dull and dim, falters as it flickers along the rails; I reckos I’m nervous with this long ran; and it always seems to me That along in the early morning, a fellow weakens and fails. “We must be near the river, Tom; I wish I could sec it now; But we’ll hear it sweep round the great stone pier, I reckon, by and by; We’re right on time, and I don’t feel afraid of anything, but somehow I wish I could see old Burlington’s hills uploomIng against the sky. Just feel her spring I how eager she seems! how faster than life she goes ! Hear, when I touch the whistle, what agony in her scream; And you cannot count the whirling miles that over her shoulder she throws— Why, the night's run seems to me, boy, like a strange, wild, unreal dream. “ My hand is heavy, the whistle I blew just now 1 could not hear; And your voice is so strange and distant, Tom, 1 can’t tell whore you are. Have we dropped the train ? Its roar is bushed—but murmuring cold and clear, I can hear the sweep of the river now—it can’t b« very far. The headlight’s out, and this air-brake, boy—it won’t work any more; There’s something wrong, but I’ll drive ahead; there is no cause for fear— It’t dark and still as the grave behind, it’s dark on the track before, But the signal-lights are set all right— * the track ahead is clear.’ " The river is close ahead, boy, I can hear its cease less flow, Though I cannot see in the darkness the rush of iti chilling tide; It isn’t the Mississippi, Tom, it’s some river that 1 don’t know. And the shadowy sweep of its waters is dark and cold and wide. There ain’t no bridge I can see, Tom, but I know th< way is sure.

NELLIE'S STORY.

“Is the bona fide New Yorker evei tired, or sick, or sorry ? Does he evei stop ? ” So I used to ask my sister Alice, day after day, as we took our drive to the park, or sat at our window in the hotel, where, in truth, I spent the greater pari of my time, idly watching that busy, restless, ever-increasing, ever-changing crowd, that surges throagh the greai city like a mightv wave, seeming to engulf and hurry all before it. “They tire me so, these people. Where do they come from, and where can they all be going ? And don’t you suppose that among them all there must be a few we should like to know ?”

“ Very probably,” replied Alice, laughing, ‘‘but how are we to impress those few with a wish to know us ? Are •we to send an advertisement to the daily papers stating that ‘ Two ladies, possessing many agreeable qualities, but very few acquaintances, would like to enlarge their circle, and will receive applicants (who must bring undoubted references as to character and position) at such and such a time ?’ No, Nellie, that would hardly do. How shall we accomplish it? I am quite ready; tc tell the truth, this hermit life begins tc worry me just a little. I have yielded to your wish to be in perfect seclusion ; but I can see that the inspiriting atmosShere of New York has done you good, [ellie, dear, in spite of yourself, and now the sooner we come out of our shell the better. Lot us look around the hotel, though we should never have the courage to make any advances to strangers, even if attracted by their appearance, and, on the whole, I think the matter will regulate itself. We have been ‘alone in crowd’ long enough, now, and I want to see my Nellie in her proper sphere once more. ** And then we wandered off into a discussion, or rather a long rambling chat, about tho kind of people we should really like to have. The daylight died away, and we looked out at the beautiful city “under the gaslight,” and speculated afresh on the probable destinies of the crowd still tramping under our windows, and with the evening papers and our many beloved books we ended the day. Ours was a strange position. We were both comparatively young. Alice was now 25, and I two years younger. Without being by any means regular beauties, we were sufficiently good looking to have been known in our native town, away”down among the Hampshire hills, as “Ihe pretty Langdon girls.” We were thoroughly well educated. Had more money than we knew what to do with, and were absolutely alone in the world—our parents and only brother had died some years before the time of which lam writing, and Alice was a widow. Poor child I Her story is brief and sad enough. The man she loved and married at 18, 1 proved in every way unworthy, and for three miserable years her young life was a burden to herself and a cause of ceaseless sorrow to me who watched her lovingly, but who was powerless to help or comfort in such a i grief as this. At the end of three years she was released. A fall from his horse, while riding home in a state of intoxication, caused the almost instant death of her husband. After this Alice was anxious to leave the oldTiouse, where there were so many sad associations; where we had been happy children, and desolate orphans, ana where my darling Alice had tasted a bitterness worse than orphanage. But where should we go? It was at the close of Our short New England summer, that we held many a consultation as to where we should pitch our tent Tome it was a matter of utter indifference, for, at that time, all places were alike to me. We knew something of Boston, and my chief pleasure during the memorable winter I spent there, was the recollection of that first day in the Music Hall. .It was, in more senses than one, a marked day, for from it dated my intimate friendship with Henry West. We had met at several parties; each had recognized in the other a kindred spirit; and, as he was an habitue of the house in which I was visiting, it became a matter of course that he should escort pe to the various places of amusement

and show me “the lions.” I loved music, but had enjoyed few opportunities of hearing it; no stars ever wandered so far out of their accustomed orbit as our little country town ; and there was very little native talent there. When, therefore, Mr. West invited me, soon after my arrival in Boston, to attend one of the Wednesday organ concerts, I consented, little knowing what awaited me. When the first piece was over (I remember it was the Tannhauser overture), I sat quite still, the tears rained down my face, but no words would come. Then it was I knew in an instant how perfectly sympathetic were my companion and myself; if he had at that moment uttered one of the commonplace or conventional criticisms one hears so often, I should have hated him forever. But he did not; he only said very quietly after I had recovered myself a little, “lam so thankful you heard it first with me,”.and I replied, “If only it might last forever.” From that day our friendship ripened fast, and during the remaihder of that memorable winter, the world was very bright to me. Every week we went to the Music Hall, and then I studied out with his advice and assistance the music we had heard together. When the spring came, and Alice began to beg for my return to her, it was hard for me to think of all from which going home must separate me. And, to all appearances, he text it too. I could not doubt that he had a very great interest in me, he had given so many proofs of it Would he, I wondered, speak some decisive word before I left? Would not he ask permission to visit me in my country home ? So I dreamed on until the last evening came. For hours the drawing-rooms had been crowded with guests, assembled to bid me adieu. Many a kindly greeting was spoken—many a wish expressed that we might soon all meet again. But not until very late, when almost every one had gone, did Mr. West appear. I knew at a glance that something was wrong, and my heart sank within me. I talked on, however, as merrily as before, giving to each a bright word, a good-by, wishing, oh I how earnestly, that it was all over. At last we were alone. My hostess, wearied by the evening’s exertions, begged to be excused, adding, jestingly; “If one of the single gentlemen had loitered so long, Nelly, after all the rest, 1 should be rather suspicious on this last night, but there is no danger of anything coming to pass now—so I will say good night. Pray, Mr. West, do not be taken with one of your musical fevers and pursuade Miss Langdon to open the piano, for she is very tired and must set out on her journey at a most unearthly hour in the morning.”

As she turned to go Mr. West said, in a low, strange voice: “ I must say goodbye. too, Mrs. Gordon. Tfris evening’s mail has brought me letters which conkpel me to leave for Cuba.” “What! No bad news from Mrs. West, I hope ?” she asked, anxiously. “My wife is very ill, and wishes me to join her at once.” “lam so sorry; but I sincerely hope you will find her better on your arrival Give her my kind regards and good wishes. How we shall miss you I Pray write and keep us informed of Mrs. West’s health, and let us see you immediately on your return;” and, with a few more friendly words, she left the room. His wife ! These two words burned into my brain like coals of fire. I could not think nor wonder nor ask a question. My one idea was to escape without betraying iny suffering; to insure his leaving me without discovering what those two little words, spoken so calmly and unconsciously, “ Your wife!” had wrought for me I In that supreme moment, in that single flash of time, while he crossed from the door he had gone to open for Mrs. Gordon back to the sofa, where I sat, my woman’s pride triumphed over every other feeling, and I spoke as calmly and deliberately as if no tempest raged within.” “You must let me, too, express my regret that you are summoned away on so painful an errand,” I said; “ and allow me, though a stranger to Mrs. West, to send a message of good wishes for hei recovery.” He looked at me keenly and long, but my impassive face and measured tones baffled even that sharp scrutiny.

“You know, then, that I had the good fortune to lie a married man !” he said. “ From a remark you made yesterday 1 imagined for a moment that you were not aware of it; and, strange as it may appear, I rather think Mrs. Gordon’s mention of my wife, just now, is the first that has chanced to be made before you. I wanted you to know it before we parted. 1 came here to-night partly te define my position, as the politicians say.” “Very kind of you, I’m sure; but you see it is quite an old story to me. Don’t you know, Mr. West, that ‘ Benedict, the married man,’ always shows his color in spite of himself ? I hope, certainly, to have the pleasure of making Mrs. West’s acquaintance, and ol telling how much I am indebted to you for many acts of kindness and courtesy. And now, if you will not think me rude, I must ask you to let me say good-by, for I have still more packing to attend to.” “Good-by,” said he. Not anothei word escaped him, but that piercing eye was fixed upon me, seeming to ask, “Is tliis all true ?”

How I reached my house I cannot tell, even now. My journey was accomplished, however, and on the evening of the following day I threw myself into Alice’s arms; and when shocked, I suppose, at the changed face that met hers, she exclaimed : “What is the matter, Nellie dear?” 1 entreated: “Do not ask me any questions ; only love me always.” After a few days I opened my heart and told her #ll, but begged that the subject might never again be mentioned between us.

And now my life was indeed a blank. I was not ill in body, so I said ; and when it was remarked that I became thinner and paler, I attributed all to my dissipation and late hours in Boston. There was no longer anything that pleased or displeased, interested or wearied, amused or annoyed me. I dared look neither backward nor forward. I read without receiving the slightest impression from the pages I turned over, and listened to Alice’s sweet voice and to the kindly conversation of friends and neighbors without understanding or caring for their words. Thus it was with me when at last the time came that Alice decided on a change of residence, and for a beginning, resolved on trying how we should like New York. I said : “ New York will do us as good as any other place, if you will let me stay quietly at home.” And so we went, Alice and I, and a faithful old woman, who had been with us from childhood, and loved and watched over us as if we were her very own. We established ourselves at the Everett, and had been there for several months.

In all this time I had heard nothing of Henry West, but that his wife had recovered from her illness at Cuba and returned with him to Boston in the following spring. In the semi-occasional correspondence between Mrs. Gordon and myself his name had only once occurred, when she wrote : “Mr. West inquired - for you yesterday, and was grieved to learn that you had not been well. He looks himself very badly, and has lost all his spirits. Perhaps madam’s society has a depressing effect; and no wonder, for, as you know, his boyish marriage was the great mistake of his life. They are utterly uncongenial, and for years have lived apart, at least nine months out of the twelve, though they are nominally on good terms. Now, however, her health is failing very rap-

idly, and it may be that a happy release for both is at hand.” On the very day after I had talked with AJioe of the possible material that wight be found in the crowded streets of New York, we made cur first acquaintance there. A lady whom we had frequently met in the halls and diningroom, and- admired for her refined and dignified appearance, and who occupied, with a stately old gentlemap, evidently her father, the suite of rooms adjoining her own, knocked hurriedly at our door one night, after we had retired. Our old Margaret answered the summons, and the lady begged that we would come to her assistance, her father having become suddenly and dangerously ill. Alice hastened to do all in her power, and for several days, during which the invalid slowly recovered, she made frequent visits to our neighbors’ apartments, bringing back eloquent descriptions of both father and daughter. The latter, who introduced herself as Mrs. Gray, of Boston, now came frequently into our parlors, and the acquaintance bid fair to become a real friendship. The ice was broken, and I no longer wished to continue our isolated life. On Saturday Alice came in from a walk with our friend, and said: “Nellie, Mrs. Gray wants you to go with her to-morrow to vespers, at St. Stephen’s, to hear the ‘Stabat Mater. ’ May I tell her you will accept the invitation ? ” I was quite ready to avail myself of Mrs. Gray’s invitation, and welcomed her more cordially than usual when she came a few hours later to repeat it in person. As she sat and talked I found myself wondering who it was she resembled so strongly. The shape of her head, the expression of her eye, the tone of her voice, all seemed strangely familiar, yet we had never met until a few weeks previous. The conversation turned casually on Boston. I was lost in a sad dream when Mrs. Gray said, in answer to some remark of Alice’s : “Yes, we have fine pictures, sometimes in Boston; but we have our magnificent organ always. Of course you heard it, Miss Nellie, when you were there? Your sister tells me you are passionately fond of music, and of organ music especially.” “Yes, I have often heard it,” I replied. “I always thought I appreciated our organ entirely ; but when my brother Henr’y came home from Europe, the year after it was opened, his intense enjoyment surpassed even mine. And all this reminds me to ask if you will allow me to present this same brother of mine to you to-morrow ? He will arrive here late to-night, and will be most happy to escort us to St. Stephen’s where he is a regular attendant whenever he visits New York. ”

I suppose Alice answered for me that I should be happy to make acquaintance with our friend’s brother. I was too bewildered to speak. The strange likeness that made her face so familiar to me at first sight, the name of this unknown brother, Henry, his intense love for organ music—what could it all mean? Was I now to meet him again, to endur# afresh all the misery that the kindly hand of time was just beginning to hide amid the flowers of resignation and contentment ? I passed the rest of the day and night in feverish excitement. I was asked no questions. If it were indeed he I was about to see, I should meet him as bravely as I had parted|from him. He was and could be nothing to me after this one day; our path might never cross again—l could bear it. At the appointed time Mrs. Gray called for me, but came alone ! Then I realized how weak I was; how I had been hoping to see him, though I told myself we should meet as the veriest strangers. “My brother will join us at the church,” said Mrs. Gray. “He was obliged to go first to visit a sick friend, but he will not be detained long.” We reached the church just as the service was beginning, and the first strains of the magnificent “ Stabat Mater” of Pergholese already issued from the grand organ. The aisles were crowded, but, as we approached Mrs. Gray’s pew, she whispered, in a tone of relief, * ‘ How fortunate 1 I see that my brother hjs arrived before me and kept our seats; but I must defer an introduction till after the services.”

The gentleman stepped from the pew to allow us to pass in, evidently listening intently all the while, that a note of the music might not be lost. He cast a careless glance on his sister’s companion —our eyes met. All I saw was a look of joy, of thankfulness, of content. In my face I believe he could read absolutely nothing. Ah, what hours those were to me 1 But for the music I could never have sat there—so near to him, yet so infinitely far away. The music, now wailing, now beseeching, now triumphant, rolled through the church like a voice from heaven, banishing for the time all thoughts of earthly trials and temptations. But it ended at last—the vesper service was over.

As the crowd slowly dispersed we sat listening to the really-beautiful march of Beethoven. Then Mrs. Gray begged us to wait one moment, as she wished to speak to some poor women who were assisted and employed by her, and were now waiting for her. She simply named us to each other and left us. The “ one moment" lengthened into an half hour ; the last notes of the organ died away; only a solitary worshiper knelt here and there in the lonely aisles. And I was listening to the “ old, old story;” how, from the first day we met, he had cared for me, and me only ; but, fettered by that uncongenial marriage, into which he had entered thoughtlessly when a mere boy, it was impossible for him to say one word. Yes, he had loved me from the first; and now he was free, and had come to seek me out, to ask whether I remembered him. And this time I had no need to tell a falsehood. When Mrs. Gray rejoined us, she looked from one to another with a bright, loving smile, and whispered to me : “I never knew until just as I was coming for you this afternoon, that you and Henry were old friends. May I be your friend also, Nellie, for his sake ? ” Then we walked slowly home in the twilight to Alice, who looked up inquiringly as we entered the parlor together. She must have seen at a glance that my sorrow was suddenly lifted from my heart, and when I presented Mr. West as “ an old friend from Boston,” the truth flashed upon her in a moment. When he left me the other evening he said: “I cannot wait long for you, Nelly. Say all that’s good of me to your dear sister, and persuade her to give you to me very soon. ” Alice was neither obdurate nor selfish, and the next summer she joined my husband and myself in a happy wandering over Switzerland.

Blasting Without Drilling.

An Austrian engineer named Lauei has discovered a new method of disintegrating rock. The chief feature of his system is to employ a hollow cylinder like a gas pipe, and to place the dynamite cartridge, not as hitherto in a hole bored in a rock to be blasted, but in the cylinder in question. The cartridge only touches the surface of the rock which it is desired to shatter. The explosion of the dynamite is effected by means of electricity, and the effect is said to be greater than with the usual cartridge in a hole bored in the rock. The rock is shattered into fragments so small that a feir stream is able to wash them away without help, whereas in the case of gunpowder the rock is only split up into small blocks more or less large and troublesome to remove. The Lauer system is calculated to effect a saving of fully 40 per cppt, as compared with the old system.

Swimming in Ice-Cold Water.

It has been considered impossible for a human being to swim across Grand Lake, Middle Park, Colorado. The water is cold as ice the year around, and all who attempted to swim from shore to shore were said to have perished. But the feat has recently been accomplished. While the Messrs. Stover, Sheldon, Love and Hottel were at the lake during their recent pleasure trip, a French Canadian bet SSO that he could swim across the lake. The bet was. readily taken. The Frenchman prepared for the undertaking by removing his clothing and dipping in the lake until he became accustomed to the temperature of the water, and then dashed in and swam across without any apparent difficulty. He declared that he could swim back again. The feat caused great excitement among old-timers, who lost heavily.— Fort Collins Express.

Happiness is in the Strife.

The most unsatisfactory thing in life is success. It sounds paradoxical to eay so, but it is profoundly true. The only thing about it that is worth the having is the struggle for it, and when it is attained the predominant feeling is a question as to whether it is worth the effort. Nine successful men out of ten, if they told the truth, would say that it was not, still if they had to live their lives over again they would struggle every bit as hard, because it was in them to do it and the struggle was the only Eart of the game worth having. It ept thorn alive, and once so successful that nothing lay ahead, they become morbid, dissatisfied and restless. A Maryland exchange refers to Mr. Thos. G.

Mr. E. G. Gartman, the business manager of the Evening Dispatch, of York, Pa., was cured of neuralgia by three applications of St. Jacobs Oil. Boston (Mass.) Saturday Evening Express. At the National Industrial Exhibition in Milan was exhibited an electrical voting apparatus, designed by Signor Roncelli, a member of the Italian Parliament. The idea is simply as follows : Each member of the house has iu front of him a metal plate bearing his' name. The plate is furnished with three metal buttons, marked respectfully, “ Aye,” “No ” and “ Abstain.” This plate is iu connection with a central printing apparatus, which prints in three separate columns the yeas, noes and abstainers, according as the members depress their respective buttons. A fourth column marks the absentees. At the moment of recording each vote, a number corresponding with the number of the vote appears, so that the total may be seen at a glance. By this system, members can vote and keep their ssats, a great saving of time being thus affected. If the mother is feeble, it is impossible that her children should be strong. Take Lydia E.

What the Director Said.

—A Boatetr-reporter, while in Ute rite* <* the New York and Boston Dispatch Express Company, had a comreraatiow witfc Mr. B. RLaSbee, ©ne ©Abe DKeotop of the company, who gave the following personal experience: “A little over a year ago I was taken si k. I did not know what tho trouble wasTbut 1 continued to grbw and my complaint baffled the skill of my doctors. At last my svmptoms developed into that terrible complaint, Bright's Disease, which has been pronounced incurable by all physicians. My sufferings at that time were unspeakable. I was bloated from head to foot; my heart pamed me; my pulse was irregular, and I was unable to breathe except in short convulsive gasps. While suffering thus I learned of Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure; and, although I had been given up to die by the prominent physicians of Bo«on, and they had told my friends I could not save a weak, I resolved to try this remedy at a lastvesort lam rejoiced to say it has effected a perfect cure inmy mm, Mid with many of .my Inends, who have been afflicted with kidney troubiM, either ci Wag standing or acute forms, and who, under my advice, have used thia most Wonderful remedy.”

One of Those “Mash" Letters.

When- Horaqo Weston, the coloied banjo player of the Plantation troupe, was traveling in Europe with the Jarrett & Palmer Uncle Tom Combination, he received a large mail daily. One day he was shoving his letters to Mr. Jarrett, who was-reading them to him, as he had never learned to read. Suddenly Mr. Jarrett was overcome with emotion. “ Where did you get that letter ? ” he asked, holding out one with the royal insignia printed on the corner, and signed by a court official. “ Dat one ? Why, I’ve carried dat in my pocket a week.” “ Why, you idiot!” shouted Jarrett, “ that is a "command to appear before the Queen, and is worth §IO,OOO to the company for an advertisement.” “Is dat so?” replied Weston, “I thought it was one of dem mash letters.” —New York Sun.

FACTS ABOUT UMBRELLAS. Antiquarians say that the umbrella was invented shortly after the flood, and has been the least improved upon of all appliances for humau comfort, the shape being now as it was in those youthful days of the world. An umbrella is much like a pigeon as to the question of possession—the last one who gets it owns it. The following facts about umbrellas —especially the last one—may serve every reader a splendid purpose sooner or later: To place your umbrella In a rack indicates that j* is about to change owners. An umbrella carried rfver a woman, the man getting nothing but drippings of the rain, indicatescourtship. When the man has the umbrella and the woman the drippings, it indicates marriage. To carry it at right angles under your arm signifies that ap eye is to be lost by the man who follows vou. To put a cotton umbrellaby the side of arnica silk one Signifies that “ exchange is no robbery.’* To lend an umbrella signifies that “ I am a fool.” To carry an umbrella lust high enough to tear out men eyes and knock off men’s hats, signifies “I am a woman.” To go without an umbrella in a rain-storm shows I am sure of getting rheumatism, and will have to use St. Jacobs Oil to get well.” To keep a fine umbrella for your own use and a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil aiways in the house, in esse of rheumatism or accident, would signify that you are real philosopher. The following communication to the editor of the Salem (Mass.) Register shows how an artist treated his visitor: “ I would have accepted your kind invitation to visit you in your new quarters with pleasure before this had not my old enemy, Mr. Rheumatism, pounced on me so suddenly. He arrived last Friday, and, without stopping to send up his card, rushed in and grasped me by the hand with such a grip that in a few hours my hand and wrist were so badly swollen and painful that I felt os though one of Mr. Hatch’s coal teams had run over me. Mr. Rheumatism has been a constant visitor of mine for several years; he always swells and put on a great many airs, making himself at home, devouring my substance and leaving me poor in flesh and pocket. Last winter he came and stayed two months. I then decided that the next time he came I would change his diet. I was somewhat at a loss what to feed him with, but finally concluded to give him three square meals a day of St. Jacobs Oil—morning, noon and night. This fare he is disgusted with, and is packing up his trunk and will leave by to-morrow or next day; says he cannot stop any longer, as he has pressing business else, where. He is a treacherous fellow, and he intends visiting some of our Salem friends; if h« does, just give him the same fare that I did and be won’t stop long. J. S. Lefavquk.
