dressed him in solemn, far-away tones as of one talking in sleep. He could not have said with certainty that the language was his own,though somehow he understood her perfectly. “You know me not?” she said, with a kind of sad indifference. “Well,” Leander admitted as politely ns his terror would allow, "you certainly have the advantage of me for the moment mum. ” “1 am Aphrodite the foam-born, the matchless seed of .Kgis-bearing Zenus. Many names have 1 among the sons of men, and many temples,and I sway the hearts of all lovers' and gods—yea. ami mortals—have burned for me, a goddess, with an uneousuming, unquenchable

lire!”

“ Lor!” said Leander. If he had not been so much flurried, he might have found a remark worthier of the occasion, but the announcement that she was a goddess took his breath away; he had quite believed that goddesses were long since “gone out.” “You know wherefore I am come hither?" she said: “Not at this minute I don't," he replied. “You'll excuse me,but you can't lie the statue out of those gardens? You really are so surprisingly like, that I couldn't help asking you. ” “1 am Aphrodite,and no statue. Long —how long i know not—have I lain entranced In slumber in my sea-girt isle of Cyprus,and now again lias the living touch of a mortal hand upon one of my sacred images called me from my rest ami given me power to animate this marble shell. Some hand has placed this ring upon my linger; tell me, was it yours?” Leander was almost reassured: after nil, he could forgive her for terrifying him so much, since she had come uu so good-natured an errand. ■Quite correct, mum — miss!” (he wished he knew the proper form for addressing a goddess). “That ring is my property. I'm sure it's very civil and friendly of you to come all this way about it,” and he held out his hand for it eagerly. “And think you it was for this that I

youth. ”

“1 don't know what there is modest in expecting you to behave honest!" he said, rather wondering at his own

audacity.

“How are you called?" she inquired suddenly on this, and after hearing the answer remarked that the name was known to her as that of a goodly and noble youth who had perished for the

sake of Hero.

said; “the Tweddles have always kep’ themselves respectable. Hut I'm not a hero myself, I'm a hairdresser.” Nile repeated the word thoughtfully, though she did not seem to quite comprehend it; and indeed it is likely enough that, however intelligible she was to Leander, the understanding was far from lieing entirely reciprocal. Nile extended tn-r hand *0 him smiling not ungraciously. ‘Leander," she said, “cease to tremble, for a great happiness is yours. Hold have you been; yet am I not angered, for I come. Cast then away all fear, and know that Aphrodite disdains not to accept a

mortal's plighted troth!”

Leander intrcnelieil promptly behind the armchair. “I don’t know what you're talking about!” he said “How can I help fearing when you come down on me like this? Ask your-

self. ”

“Can you not understand that prayer is heard?” she demanded. “What prayer?” cried Leander. “Crass and gross wilted has the world

grown!" said she; “a Creek swain would have needed but few words to divine his idiss. Know then that your suit is accepted; never yet lias Aphrodite turned the humblest from her

“Well, well,” he said, soothingly “there's nothing of that sort about her,

I do assure you.”

“Then I spare her." said the goddess. “But how, then, if this Vie truly so, do you still shrink from the honor before

you?”

Leander felt a natural unwillingness to explain that it was because he was engaged to a young lady who kept the accounts at a florist's. “Well, the fact is," ho said.awkwardly, “there's ditlieulties in the wav.” “Difficulties? I can remove them all!" she said. “Not these you can't, mum. It's like this: You and me, we don’t start,so to speak, from the same basin. I don't mean it as any reproach to you,but you can’t deny you’re an Gathen.and, worse than that, an Kathen goddess. Now all my family have been brought up as chapel folk. Primitive Methodists, and I’ve been trained to have a horror of superstition ami idolatries, and see the folly of it. So you can see for yourself that we shouldn't be likely to get on together!” “ You talk words, ” she said,impatiently; “but empty are they and meaningless to my ears. One thing I learn from them—that you seek to escape me!” “That's putting it too harshly,mum,” he protested. “I’m sure 1 feel the honor of such a call: and, by the way, do you mind telling me how you got my address—how you found me out, I mean?" “No one remains long hid from the se.nehing eye of the high gods,” she re-

plied.

“So T should be inclined to say,” agreed Leander. “ Hut only tell me this, wasn't it you in the omnibus? We call our public conveyances omnibuses, as perhaps you mayn't know." “I. sea-born Aphrodite, I in a public conveyance, an omnibus? There is an Impiety in such a question!” “Well, 1 only thought it might have been,” he stammered, rather relieved upon the whole that it was not the goddess who had seen Ids precipitate bolt from the vehicle. Who the female was in the corner ho never knew; though a man of science might account for the resemblance she bore to the statue by ascribing it to one of those preparatory impressions projected occasionally by a strong personality upon a weak one. Hut Leander was content to leave the matter unexplained. “Let it suffice you,” she said, “that I am here. And, once more. Leander.are you prepared to fill the troth you have plighted?” “I—I can't say I nm." he said. “Not that 1 don't feel thankful for having had the refusal of so very 'igh class an opportunity; but as I'm situated at present—what with the state of trade, and unbelief so rampant, and all—I'm obliged to decline with respectful thanks." He trusted that after this she would see the propriety of going. “Have a care,” she said. “You are young and not uncomely and my heart pities you. Do nothing rash. Pause, ere you rouse the implacable ire of Aph rodite!" “Thank you,” said Leander. “If you'll allow me, I will. I don't want any ill-feeling. I'm sure. It's my wish to live peaceable with all men.” “I leave you, then. I se the time before you till I come again in thinking well whether he aets wisely who spurns the proffered hand of Idalian Aphrodite. For the present farewell, Lean-

der. "

He was overjoyed at his coming deliverance. “Good evening, mum." he said, as he ran to the door and held it open. “If you’ll allow me.I'll light you down the staircase—it's rather dark,I'm afraid. ” “Fool!" she said with scorn,and without stirring from her place; and, as she spoke the word, the veil seemed to descend over her face again, the light faded out, and, with a slight shudder, the figure imperceptibly resumed it* normal attitude, the drapery stiffened into its chiselled folds again and tiie statue was soulless as are statues generally.

she wouldn't!" But Aphrodite continued immovable, and at last he concluded that, as he put it, “she had done for the evening. ” His first reflection was. What had best be done? The wisest course seemed to be to send for the manager of the J gardens and restore the statue while its animation was suspended The people at the gardens would take care that it did not get loose again. Hut there was the ring, he must get that off first; here was an unhoped for opportunity of accomplishing this in privacy and at his leisure. Again approaching the figure, he tried to draw off the compromising circle, but it seemed tighter than ever, and he drew out a pair of scissors ami. after a little hesitation,respectfully inserted it under the hoop and set to work to prize it off, with the result of snapping both the points, while leaving the ring entirely unaffected. He glanced at the face; it wore- the same dreamy smile, with a touch of gentle contempt in it. “She don't seem to mind.” he said aloud; “to be sure, she ain’t inside of it now, as far as 1 make it out. I've got all night before me to get the confounded thifig off. and I'll go on till I’ve done it!" Hut lie labored on with the disabled scissors, and only succeeded in scratching the smooth marble a little; he stopped to pant. “There’s only one way," he told himself, desperately; “a little diamond cement would make it all right again; and you expect cracks in a statue. ” Then, after a furtive glance around, he fetched the poker from the fireplace. He felt horribly brutal, as if he were going to mutilate and maltreat a creature that could feel, but he nerved himself to tap the back of Aphrodite's hand at the dimpled base of the third finger. The shock ran up to his elbow’, and gave him acute “pins and needles,” but the stone hand was still intact. He struck again—this time with all his force—and the poker flew from his grasp, and his arm dropped paralyzed by his side. He could scarcely lift it again for some minutes, and the warning made him refrain from any further violence. “It's no good,” he groaned; “if 1 goon. I don't know what mayn't happen to me. 1 must wait till she comes to, and then ask her for the ring, very polite and civil, and try if I can't get round her that way." He was determined that he would not give her up to the gardens while she wore his ring, but in the mean time lie could scarcely leave the statue standing in the middle of his sitting-room, where it would most assuredly attract the charwoman's attention. He had little cupboards on each side

the Situation.

"Coming our way, sure!” This was the response made the other day by Hon. Thomas Taggart, chairman of the Democratic state central committee, to an inquiry as to the way things political were going in Indiana. "I am free to confess," he continued, "that 60 or even 30 days ago the outlook was gloomy enough for the grand old Democracy of the state. Business was dull, the Republicans were jubilant and confident and Democrats seemed listless and uninterested. It did look then as if there was some reason for the boastful claims of our friends—the gpemy—that they would carry the state without

much effort.

“But that was some weeks ago. The situation has undergone a complete reversal. Instead of being doubtful or despondent Democrats are now hopeful and confident. So complete has been tho change that I now feel absolutely certain that we will carry the state by a substantial majority, and that Indiana will have as many Democratic congressmen in the next house as we have in the present one. The legislature will be Democratic by a safe and sufficient majority, insuring the retention on the st.vtute books of all those wise and beneficial laws which have been placed there by Democratic legislatures

iu the past.

Kvaxons For Confidence.

“There are a good many reasons for this changed aspect of affairs,” said Mr. Taggart in reply to further questions. "First and foremost among these may be placed the business revival which has followed so closely on the enactment of the new tariff law, and of which the evidences are to be seen on every hand. Early in the campaign the Republicans were charging all the hard times to the attitude of the Democrats on the tariff question. Since then, however, the people have had time to think. They nave come to a realization of the foot that the panic of last year and the continuing depression were but the legitimate climax of the system of legislation whicli the Republicans, so long intrenched in power in the national government, had fastened upon the people. "The people, too, are learning that freer trade, brought about be reforming the tariff laws, is doing all that Democrats have claimed it would do in the past. It is setting in motion the machinery of the factories, giving employment to tens and hundreds and thousands of people who had been idle under the system of protection, is cheapening the price of the ueci ssaries of life and increasing the price of farm produce. It is putting commercial ! travelers on the road again and filling

BUDS, Society buds, young women just entering the doors of society or womanhood, require the wisest care. To be beautiful and charming they must have perfect health, with all it implies — a clear skin, rosy cheeks, bright eyes and 'good spirits. At this period the young woman is especially sensitive, and many nervous troubles, which continue through life, have their origin at this time. If there be pam, headache, backache, and nervous disturbances, or the general health not good, the judicious use of medicine should be employed. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is the best restorative tonic and nervine at this time. The best bodily condition results from its use. It’s a remedy specially indicated for those delicate weaknesses and derangements that afflict womenkind at one period or another. You’ll find that the woman who has faithfully used the "Prescription” is the picture of health, she looks well and she feels well. In catarrhal inflammation, in chronic displacements common to Women, where there are symptoms of backache, dizziness or fainting, bearing down sensations, disordered stomach, moodiness, fatigue, etc., the trouble is surely dispelled and the sufferer brought back to health aud good spirits.
