“ I will go thither and behold you." “No!” he exclaimed. “Do you want to ruin me?” “1 will make no sign; none shall recognize me for what 1 am. Hut come !

Leander pondered awhile. There, was danger in introducing the goddess into his saloon; he had no idea what she might do there. But at the same time, if she were bent upon coming, she would probably do so in any case, and besides, he felt tolerably certain I that what she would see would convince lier of his utter unsuitability as a

consort.

Yes. it was surely wisest to assist necessity ami obtain the most favorable conditions for the inevitable experi-

He went upstairs again, half fearful, half sanguine. “I don't altogether like it,” he was thinking. “Hut if i put a print wrapper over her all day, no one will notice.

—^'he Winter's Tale.

The next day ll^-ght Leander a letter which made his heart beat with mingled emotions—it was from his Matilda. It had evidently been written immediately before her return, and told him that sin* would be at their old meeting place (the statue of Fox, in Bloomsbury Square) at 8 o'clock that

evening.

The wave of tenderness which swept over him at the anticipation of this was hurled back by an uncomfortable thought. M hat if Matilda were to refer to the ring? But no; his Matilda would

do nothing so indelicate.

All through the day he mechanically went through bis hair-dressing.singeing ami shampooing operations, divided between joy at the prospect of seeing his adorrd Matilda pgnin nnd anxiety rerpecting the cold marble swathed in the pent wrapper, which stood in a corner

of his hair-cutting saloon.

lie gianeed at it every time he went past to change a brush or heat a razor; but there was no sign or movement under the folds, and he gradually became reassured, especially as it excited

no remark.

But as evening drew on he felt that, for the success of his experiment,it was necessary that the cover should be removed. It was dangerous, supposing the Inspector were to come in unexpectedly and recognize the statue, but he could only trust to fortune for that, and hoped that even if the detective came he would be able to keep him in

the outer shop.

It was only for one evening, and it was well worth the risk. A foreign gentleman had come in.and the hair-dresser found that a 4resh wrapper was required, which gave him the excuse he wanted for unveiling the Aphrodite. He looked carefully at the face as he uncovered it, but could discover no speculation ns yet in the calm, full gaze of the goddess. The foreign gentleman was inclined to be talkative under treatment, and the conversatiort came around to public amusements. “In my country,” the customer said, without mentioning or betraying what his particular country was, “in my country we have what you have not, places to sit out in the fresh air. and drink a glass of beer along with the entertainments. You have not

that in London?”

“Bless your soul, yes.” said I.Lander, who was a true patriot, “plenty of

them!”

“Oh.I did not aware that—but who?” ” Well." said the hair-dresser, “there's the Eagle in the City Uoad, for one; and there's the Surrey (iardens—and there's Kosherwieh, ” he added after a pause. | (The Fisheries Exhibition, it may be

said, was as yet unknown.) “And you go there, often?" “I've been to Kosherwieh.”

“Was it goot there you laikc it.ch?" “Well, said Leander, “they tell me it's very gay in the season. ' B'rhapa I went at the wrong time of year for it.” “What you call wrong time for it?" “Slack, nothing going on,” he explained, “like it wan when I went lust

Saturday. ”

“You went last Saturday. And you

stay a long time?”

“I didn't stay no longer than I could help,” Leander said; “all our party was

He walked straight up to the and stuck out his under lip.

“Where did you get that thing?" he inquired. “Isn't this place of yours small enough without lumbering it up with statuary out of the EustiXi Load?” “1 didn't get it there,” said Leander. “I—I thought it would be ’andy to 'ang

the 'ats on. ”

“Dear, dear," said tlie old gentleman, “why do you people dabble in matters you don't understand? Come here, Tweddle, and let me show you. Can't you see what a miserable sham the thing is—a cheap, tawdry imitation of the splendid classic type? Why, by asrely exhibiting such a thing, you're i vitiating public taste, sir, corrupting

it."

. Leander did not quite follow the rebuke, which he thought was probably based upon the goddess's antecedents. “Was she really as bad as that, sir?” he said, “I wasn't aware so, or I shouldn't give any offense to customers

by letting her stay here.”

As he spoke he saw the indefinable indications in the statue's face which denoted that it was instinct-once more with life and intelligence, and he was horrified at the thought that the latter part of the conversation might have

been overheard.

“But I've always understood,” ho said, hastily, “that the party this re presents was pufBckly correct, however free some of the others might have lieen; and I suppose that's the costume of the period she’s in, and very becoming it is, I'm sure, though gone out

si nee."

“Bah!" said the old gentleman, “it’s poor art. I'll show you where the thing is bad. I happen to understand something of these things. Just observe how the top of the head is out of drawing; look at the lowness of the forehead and the distance between the eyes; all the canons of proportion ignored, absolutely ignored!" What further strictures this rash old gentleman was preparing to pass upon the statue will never be known now, for Tweddle already thought he could discern a growing resentment in her face under so much candor. He could not stand by and allow so excellent a customer to be crushed on the lloor of his saloon,and he knew the Venus quite capable of this: was she not perpetually threatening such a penalty on much slighter provocation? He rushed between the unconscious man and his fate. “I think you said your hair cut?" he said,and laid violent hands upon the critic, forced him protesting into a chair, throttled him with a towel and effectually diverted his attention by a series of personal remarks upon the top of his head. The victim, wT«ile he was being shampooed, showed at first an alarming tendency to revert to the subject of the goddess's defects, but Leander was able to ke>‘p him in check by well-timed jets of scalding water and ice-cold sprays, which he directed against his customer's exposed crown, until every idea, except impotent rage, was washed out of it. while a hard machine brush completed the subjugation. Finally the unfortunate old man staggered out of the shop, preserved by Leander's unremitting watchfulness from the wrath of the goddess. Yet such is the ingratitude of human nature that he left the place vowing to return no more. “I thought I'd got a clown behind me. sir!” he used to say afterterwards in describing it. Before Leander could recover from the alarm he had been thrown into another customer had entered, a pale young man, with a glossy hat, a white satin nocktie and a rather decayed gardenia. He. too, was one of Twaddle's regular clients. What his occupation might be was a mystery, for he aimed at being considered a man of pleasure. “I say. just shave me. will you?” he said, and threw himself languidly into a chair. “Fact is. Tweddle, I've been doosid chippy for the last two days 1 daren’t touch a razor.” “Indeed, sir!” said Leander, with respectful sympathy. “You see,” explained the youth, “I've been playing the goat—the giddy goat. Know what that means?” “I used to,” said Leander; “I never touch alcoholic stimulants now, my-

self."

“Wish I didn’t. I say, Tweddle, have you been to the Cosmopolitan lately'.”’ “I don’t go to music-’alls now," said Leander; “I've give up all that now Lm keeping company." “ Weil, you go ami see the new ballet,” the youth exhorted him earnestly; not that he eared whether the hairdresser went or not, but because he wanted to talk about the ballet to somebody. “Ah!" observed Leander, “is that a good one they've got there now, sir?” “Bather think so. Ballet called •Olympus.' There's a regular ripping little thing who comes on as one of ^

I went round after it was all over, but couldn't see a sign of Ijer; So— That's a queer sort of statue you’ve got there!" he broke off. suddenly; nn<i Leander distinctly saw the goddess shake her arm in fierce menace. “He’s said something that's put her out," he concluded. “I wish I knew

what it was."

“It’s a classical statue, sir,’ he said, with what composure he might; “they're

all made like that.”

“Are they, by Jove? But. Tweddle.! say, it moves; it's shaking its fist like

old Harry!”

“Oh. I think you're mistaken, sir, really! I don't perceive it myself.” “Don't perceive it? But, hang it, man, look—look in the glass! There! don't you see it does? Dash it,can't you

say it does?"

“Flaw in the mirror, sir; when you move your 'ed you do ketch that effect. I've observed it myself frequent. Chin cut, sir? My fault—my fault entirely,” he admitted handsomely. The young man was shayed by this time, and had risen to receive his hat and cane, when he gave a violent start an lie passed the Aphrodite. “There!" lie said, breathlessly; "look at that, Tweddle; she's going to punch my head! I suppose you’ll tell me that's the

glass?”

Leander trembled—this time for his own reputation; for the report that he kept a mysterious and pugnacious statue on the premises would not increase ids custom. He must silence it, if possible.' “I'm afraid it is, sir—in a way," he re-

marked, compassionately.

The young man turned paler still. “No!" he exclaimed; “you don't think it is, though? Don’t you see anything yourself? I don't either, Tweddle; I was ehatfing, that’s all. I know I’m a wee hit off color; hut it's not so bad as "[that. Keep off! Tell her to drop it,

Tweddle!”

For, as he spoke, the goddess had made a stride towards him. “Miserable one!” she cried, “you have mangled one of my birds. Hence, or I crush

thee!”

“Tweddle! Tweddle! ” cried the youth, taking refuge in the outer shop; “don’t let her come after me! What's she talking alxnit. eh? You shouldn't have these things about; they're—they're not

right!”

Leander shut the glass door nnd placed himself before it. while he tried to assume a concerned interest. “ You

take my advice, sir.” he said; borne and keep steady.”

“Is it that?" murmured the customer. “Great Scott! I must be bad?” and he went out into the street, shaking. “ I don't believe 1 shall ever see him again.cither,” thought Leander. “She'll drive 'em all away if she goes on like this.” But here a sudden recollection struck him and he slapped his thigh with glee. “Why, of course,” he said, “that's it. I've downright disgusted her; It wn.s me she was most put out with, and after this she'll leave me ahme. Hooray! I’ll shut up everything first and get rid of the boy, and then go in and see her and get away to

Matilda. ”

When the shop was secured for the night, he re-entered the saloon with a light step, “Well, mum," he began, “you’ve seen me at work, nnd you’ve thought better of what you were proposing. haven't you, now?” “Where is the wretched stripling who dared to slay my dove?" she cried. “ Bring him to me.” . “ What are you talking about now?” cried the bewildered Leander. “Who's been touching your birds? 1 wasn't aware you kept birds." “ Many birds are sacred to me—the silver swan, the fearless sparrow and. chief of all, the coral-footed dove. And one of these has that monster slain—his own mouth hath spoken it. ” "Oh! is that all?” said Leander. “Why, he wasn't talking about a real dove, it was a ballet girl he meant. I can’t explain the difference, but they are different. And it's all talk. too. I know him, he's harmless enough. And now. mum, to come to the point, you've now had the opportunity of forming some ideer of my calling. You’ve thought better of it, haven't you?” “Better! ay, far better!” she cried, in a voice that thrilled with pride. “Leander, too modestly you have rated yourself, for surely you are great amongst the sons of men.” “Me!” he gasped, utterly overcome. “How do you make that out?” “Do you not compel them to furnish sport for you? Have I not seen them come in. talking boldly and loud, and yet seat themselves submissively at a sign from you? And do you not swathe them in the garb of humiliation and daub their countenances with whiteness and threaten their bared throats with the gleaming knife ;md grind their heads under the resistless wheel? Then, having in disdain granted them their worthless lives, you set them free and they propitiate you with a gift and depart trembling.” “Well, of all the topsy-turvy contra-

But I’ll put you right, if it's possible to do it.” And he launched into a lengthy explanation of the wonders she iiad Seen, at the end of which he inquired, “Now do you understand I'm nobody in particular?” "It may be so,” she admitted; “but what of that?

SUGAR UNDER THE NEW TARIFF.

Facts Concerning the Price Per Pound That Will Interest Voters. The Republican prophecy that the new tariff would increase the price of sugar is effectually disproved. The official records of the wholesale price of refined sugar in Philadelphia show that the price has not increased, and a comparison of the wholesale prices of refined sugar for the month of September in the last four years reveals t lie fact that sugar at present is nearly 1 cent a pound cheaper than it was in 1893. The figun -i are taken from the official records and quote the price of sugar on Bept. 1 for the past four years as follows: 1H91—18-io cents a pound. 1892— 5 cents. 1893- 5% cents. ism—5 cents. On the 15th of the same mouth, each year, the quotations were: 1891—4% cents a pound. 1893—5 3-16 cents. 1893— 5% cents. 1894— 5 cents. The new law went into operation Aug. 28 and on Sept. 15 sugar was 5 cents a pound, whereas on Oct. 1 the price had fallen to 4 11-1(5 cents a pound. IS A REVELATION INDEED. THE OPERATION OF THE WOOL SCHEDULE OF THE NEW TARIFF.

A New Impetus Given to the Sheep Ilnlsing Industry—lletter Prices For Kaw Wool and Cheaper Prices For Clothing ami lllanketSf With More Work For Employes In the Mills —Free Wool a

lllesaing to Everybody.

Since the repeal of the McKinley blight and the enactment of the new Democratic revenue tariff' the Republicans have ceased to taunt Democrats by tlie cry of “Democratic times,” says the Evansville Courier. The tremendous reduction in all of the necessaries and comforts of life since the new tariff went into operation on Aug. 28 has convinced everybody who has made purchases since then that a Democratic tariff means good times for the consumer however it may affect anybody else. But it also benefits the manufacturer and the wage earner. It enables the mill owner to employ more men at as good, and in some instances at better, wages than they have received under the McKinley curse. Here is a letter which shows that as p. result of free wool wages have been restored: Lowell MANfFAcrritiNii Company, 95 Milk Street, Boston, Sept. 21 Bernard Goldstein, Esq , Milwaukee: Dear Sin—In reply to yours of the 18th would say that, in accordance with the understanding the special reduction of wages made to take effect Dec. 26, 1893, was restored Sept 4, 1894, said understanding being tha, the wages would be restored if the tariff bill, making wool free, passed. Yours truly, John Houo,

Treasurer pro tern.

This is an instance where wages that were reduced under McKinleyism have been restored under the new tariff, for it should be remembered that the McKinley abomination was in full force np to Aug. 28, 1894, the day on which the new tariff became a law. But this is not all. Free xvool has stimulated the manufacture of American fabrics and even those who have stoutly opposed it are now warm in its approval. Here is a striking instance of this kind, taken from a letter written by one of the leading woolen manufacturers of Philadelphia, a Republican, to a prominent dry goods merchant of Pittsburg: The operation of the new tariff has been a revelation to me. We are making more woolens, because of free wool, of a better quality, are selling more goods and employing more men. The operations of the new tariff are “a revelation” to this manufacturer because he had been deceived by his party leaders into believing that to make raw wool free would destroy the wool-grow-ing industry in tlie United States and compel all home manufacturers to rely entirely upon foreign wools for their supply. Bu' it is already apparent that the number of sheep will be increased under the new tariff because the increased demand for wool consequent upon the removal of the tariff from wool and the preparation of American woolen mills to turn out goods fine enough to compete with English and French made cloths in the world’s markets, has already strengthened the wool market and will undoubtedly advance the price of wool grown in the United States. Domestic wool is not suitable by itself for the mnnuraernre of the tinesr grades of goods, but mixed with Spanish wools, which now come in free, it answers every requirement and our woolen mills need no longer hesitate to reach out for the best trade in every part of the world. The Philadelphia mill owner is firmiy convinced afrer two months’ experience with the new tariff that lie can compete with English and French goods, not only in the United States, hut can successfully iu”:»de English and French markets with American “all wool" cloths No wonder tlie result of free wool has proved “a revelation” to him. He has been following false prophets and never uoul 1 have known it had not tlie new tai.ff' law, with its free wool schedule, taught him by actual experience that th” Democratic position has always been right; that he can make better qualities of goods at less cost than those of inferior quality have cost and that the increased demand makes it necessary for him to employ more men.

TO PUT ON needed flesh, no matter how you’ve lost it, take Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It works wonders. By restoring the normal action of the deranged organs and functions, it builds the flesh up to a safe and healthy standard — promptly, pleasantly aud naturally. The weak, emaeiated, thin, pale aud puny are made strong, plump, round and iosy. Nothing so effective as a strength restorer and flesh maker is known to medical science; this puts on hcallhvflesh not the fat of cod liver oil and its filthy compounds. It rouses every organ of the body to activity, purifies, enriches and vitalizes the blood so that the body feels refreshed and strengthened. If you are too thin, too weak, too nervous, it maybe that the food assimilation is at fault. A certain amount of bile is necessary for the reception of the fat foods in the blood. Too often the liver holds back this element which would help digestion. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery stimulates, tones up ami invigorates the liver, nourishes the blood, and the muscles, stomach and nerves get the rich blood they require.
