THS TINTED TENDS A Farcical Romance.
“Tremble not for your worthless bodies,’’ she said; “had you been slain, as 1 purposed, you would but have escaped me after all! Now a vengeance keener and more enduring shall be mine. In your gross blindness you have dared to turn from divine Aphrodite to such a thing as this,and for your impiety you shall suffer. This is your doom, and so much, at least, I can still accomplish: Long as you lioth may live, strong as your love may endure, never again shall you see her alone, never more shall she be folded to your breast. Forever I will stand a barrier between you; so shall your days con-| suiue away in the torturing desire for a
felicity you can never attain!"

eyes, “that we may as well
“Tillie,’’he said, with a convulsive effort to remain calm, “you gave me up of your own free will—you know that —and now you've come round too late.
The other lady spoke first!"
As she still clung to him, he tried tc whisper some last words of a consoling | or reassuring nature, and she suddenly ! relaxed her grasp and allowed him tc make his escape without further dissua- ' sion—not that his arguments had reI eoneiled her to his departure, but because she was mercifully unaware of it.

could see my way to something, even now.” he thought. "I can but try!” “Lady Venus,” he began, clearing his throat, “it’s not my desire to lie the architect of any mutual unpleasantness, anything—but 1 don't see any use denying that you've got the best of it. I I’m done—reg’lar bowled over; and ill ever there]was a poor devil of a toai!' under a harrer. I've no hesitation in | admitting that toad's me! So the only point 1 should like to submit for yjour consideration is this: Have things gone too far? Are you quite sure you won't be spiting yourself as well as me over this business? Can't we come tc an amicable arrangement? Think it
over. ”
“Leander, you can’t mean it!" cried Matilda. “ You leave me alone, ” he said hoarsely; “I know what I'm saying!” Whether the goddess had overstated her indifference, or whether she may have seen a prospect of some still subtler revenge, she certainly did not receive this proposition of Leander's with the contumely that might have been expected: on tUe contrary, she smiled with a triumphant satisfaction that betrayed a disposition to treat. “Have my words been fulfilled,then?" she said.' “Is your insolent pride humbled at last? And do you sue tc me for the very favors you so long have spurned?” You can put it that way if you like," he said, doggedlv. "If you want me you'd say so while there's time, that's
all!"
Little have you merited such leniency," she said, “and yet it is to you I owe my return to life and consciousness. Shall 1 abandon what I have taken such pains to win? No! 1 accept your submission. Speak, then, the words of surrender, and let us depart
together!”
Itefore I do that,” he said, firmly, “there's one point I must have settled
to my satisfaction. ”
“You can bargain still!” she exclaimed, haughtily. “Are all barbers like you? If your point concerns the safety of this maiden, be at ease; she shall go unharmed, for she is my’ rival
no longer!”
“Well, it wasn't that exactly,” he explained; “but I'm doubtful about that ring being the genuine article and I
want to make sure.”
“ Hut a short time since,and you were
willing to trust all to me!”
“ 1 was; but, if I may take the liberty of observing so, things were different then. You were wrong about that thunder-bolt—you may be wrong about
the ring!”
“Fool!” she said, “how know you that the quality of the token concerns my power? Were it even of unworthy metal, has it not brought me hither?” “ Yes,” he said, “but it mightn't be strong enough to pass me the whole distance, and where should 1 be then? It don't look more to me than 15 carat, and I daren't run any extra risk!" “How, then, can your doubts be set
at rest?” she demanded.
“ Ka:;y." he replied; “iliere are men who understand these things. All I ask of you is to step over with me, and see one of them, and take his opinion; and if he says it's gold—why, then, I shall
know where 1 am!”
“ Aphrodite submit her claims to the judgment of a mortal!” she cried. “Never will 1 thus debase my’Self!” “ Very well," he said, “then we must stay where we are. All I can «ny is.
I've made you a fair offer. ”
She paused. “Why not?” shc said, dreamily, as if thinking aloud. “Have not 1 sued ere this for the decision of a shepherd judge—even of Paris? ’Ti» but one last indignity, ami then—he is mine indeed, Leander,” she added graciously, “it shall do as you will.
Lead the way; I follow!"
Hut Matilda, who had been listening to this compromise with incredulous horror, clung in desperation to her lover's arm and tried to impede his flight. “Leander!” she cried, “Oh, Leander! surely you won't be bad enough to go away with her! You won't be so wicked and sinful as that 1 Remember who she is—one of the false gods of the poor benighted heathens— she owned it herself! She's nothing less than a live idol! Think of all the times we’ve been to chapel together; think of your poor aunt and how she’ll feel your being in such awful company!

grasping a corner of her robe, he followed. with only the vaguest sense of obstacles overcome and passed as in a
dream.
^ , Hy the time he had completely rej*'| gained his senses he was in a crowded thoroughfare, which he recognized as
Gray's Inn Rood.
A certain scheme from which, desperate as it was. he hoped much, might be executed as well here as elsewhere, and he looked about him for the aid upon
which he counted.
“Where, then, lives the wise man whom you would consult?” said Aphro-
dite.
I/eander went on until he should se«i the colpred lights of a chemist's window, and then he said, “There—right oppi isite!” He felt strangely nervous himself,but the goddess seemed even more so. She hung back all at once, and clutched his arm in her marble grasp. “Leander," she said, “I will not r*i! See those liquid fires glowing in lur® hues, like the eyes of some dread monster! *his test of yours is needless, and I fear it!" “Lady Venus." he said earnestly, “I 9o assure you they're only big bottles. an€ quite harmless, too. having water in them, not physic. You've no call to be alarmed!” Sin. yielded, and they crossed the road. The shop was small and unpretending. In the window the chief ornaments were speckled plaster limbs clad in elastic socks, and photographs of hideous complaints before and after treatment with a celebrated ointment; and there were certain trophies which indicated that the chemist numbered dentistry among his accomplishments. Inside the odor of drugs prevailed, in the absence of the subtle perfume that is part of the fittings of a fashionable apothecary, and on the threshold the goddess paused, irresolute. “There is magic in the air,” she exclaimed, “and fearful poisons; this man is some enchanter!” “Now. I put it to you,” said Leander, with some impatience, “does he look
it?"
The chemist was a mild little man, with a high forehead, round spectacles, a little red beak of a nose, and a weak gray beard. As they entered he was addressing a small and draggled child from behind his counter. “Go back and tell your mother,” he said, “that she must come herself. I never sell paregoric to children." There was so little of the wizard in his manner that the goddess, who possibly had some reason to mistrust a mortal magician, was reassured. As the child retired the chemist turned to them with a look of bland and dignified inquiry (something, perhaps the consciousness of having once passed an examination, sustains the meekest chemist in an inward superiority). He did not speak. I.eander touk it upon himself to explain. “This lady would be glad to be told whether a ring she's got on is the real article or only imitation,” he said, ‘so she thought you could decide it for
her. ”
“Not so,” corrected the goddess, austerely; “for myself I care not!” “Have it your own way,” said Leander; “I should like to be told then. I suppose, mister, you've some way of testing these things?" “Oh yes!” said the chemist, “I can treat it for you with what we call aquafortis, a combination of nitric and hydrochloric noid, which would tell us at once. I ought to mention, perhaps, that extremely powerful an agent may injure the appearance of the metal if It Is of inferior quality. Will the lady oblige me with the ring?” Aphrodite extended her hand with haughty indifference. The chemist examined the ring as it circled her finger, and Leander held his breath in tortures of anxiety. A horrible fear came ovo» him that his deep laid scheme was about
to end in failure.
Hut the chemist remarked at last: “Exactly; thank you, madam. The gold is antique, certainly; but 1 should be inclined to prnnoun' > p it. at first sight, genuine. 1 ». ill ascertain how this is, if you will take the trouble to remove
the ring and pass it over."
“Why?” demanded Aphrodite, obstin-
ately.
“I could not undertake to treat it while it remains upon your hands,” he protested; “the acid might do some in-
jury. ”
“It matters not!” shc said, calmly; and Leander recollected with horror that, as any injury to her statue would have no physical effect upon the goddess herself, she could not be much influenced by the chemist’s reason. “Ho what the gentleman tells you," he said in au eager wliispet as he drew
him. her aside.
“I know’your wTIes.oh per.fidlousone" | she said. “ Having induced me to remove this token you would seize it yourself and take to flight! I will not remove this ring!” “There’s a thing to sayl" exclaimed Leander; “there a suspicion to throw against a man! If you think I'm likely to do that I'll go right over here, where I can't see it, and 1 won't stir out till it's all over. Will that satisfy you? Y'ou know why I'm so anxious about that ring; and now, when the gentleman tells you he's almost sure it's
gold"
“It is gold!” said the goddess. “ If you're so sure about it,” h.« retaliated, “why are you afraid to have it
proved?"
“I am not afraid,” she said; “but I re-
quire no proof!"
“I do,” ho retorted, “and what I told you before I stand to. If that ring is proved—in tho only way it can be | proved, I mean by this gentleman, testing It as he tells you he can—then j there's no more to be said, and I’ll go j away with you like a lamb. Hut without that proof I won’t stir a step, | and so I tell you. It won't take a mo-1 ment. You can see for yourself that 11 couldn't possibly catch up the ring from
here!"
“Swear to roe," she said, “that you will remain where you now stand; and remember, ” she added, with an accent of triumph, “our compact is that should yonder man pr >n,ounce that the ring has passed through the test wish honor, you will follow me whithersoever I bid
you!”
“You have only to lead the way,” he said, “and I promise you faithfully I'll
follow. ”
Goddesses may be credited with some knowledge of the precious metals, and Aphrodite had no doubt of the result of the chemist's investigations: so it was with an air of serene anticipations that she left Leander upon this, and advanced to the chemist's counter. “ 1'rove it now," she said, “quickly,
that I may go!”
The chemist, who had been waiting in considerable bewilderment, prepared himself to receive the ring, and I.eander. keeping his distance, felt his heart heating fast as Aphrodite slowly drew the token from her finger anil placed it in the chemist's outstretched hand. Scarcely had she done so, as the chemist was retiring with the ring to one of his lamps, when the goddess seemed suddenly aware that sho had
committed a fatal error.
She made a stride forward to follow and recover it; but, as if s ime unseen force was restraining her, she stopped short, and a rush of whirling words, in some tongue unknown both to Leander and the chemist,forced its way through lips that soiled still, though they were
freezing fast.
Then with a strange, hoarse cry of baffled desire and revenge, she succeeded, by a violent effort, in turning, and bore down with tremendous force upon the cowering hairdresser, who gave
himStd f up at once for lost.
Hut the marble was already incapable of obeying her will. Within a few paces from him the statue stopped for the last time, with an abruptness that left it quivering and rocking; a grayish hue came over the face, causing the borrowed tints to stand forth crude and glaring; the arms waved wildly and impotently once or *wiee and then grew still forever, in the attitude conceived long since by the Grecian sculp-
tor!
Leander was free! His hazardous experiment hud succeeded. As it was the ring which had brought the passionate imperious goddess into her marble counterfeit, so—the ring once withdrawn—her power was instantly at an end, and the spell which had enabled her to assume a form of stone was
broken.
He had hoped for this, counted upon It, bift even yet hardly dared to believe
in his deliverance.
He had not done with it yet,however; for he would have to get the statue out of that shop and abandon it in some manner which would not compromise himself, and it is by no means an easy matter to mislay a life-size and invaluable antique without attracting au inconvenient amount of attention. The chemist, who had been staring meanwhile in blank astonishment, now looked imploringly at Leander, who
looked helplessly at him.
At last the latter, unable to be silent sny longer, said, “The lady is unwell,
»ir. ’’
“Why,” Leander admitted, “she does 3HDI ftefi :
ATT) TIIEV OP.KW STILL FOUEVF.R. appear a little out of sorts!” “Mi.s die h.id these •»»*■,,<•!*« before, do you happen to know?” “She's more often like this than not," said Leander. “Pctir e-e sir, but that's very serious! Is there nothing that gives relief?—a little sal volative, now? Does the lady carry smelling salts? I f not I could” And the chemist made an offer to come from behind his counter to examine the strange patient. “No,” said Leander, hastily, “don’t you trouble—you leave her to me. I know how to manage her; when she's rigid like this she can't bear to be taken notice of. ” I TO BE CONTI SC El). | The papillae of the finders are about onehundredth part of an inch high and one-two-hundredth-and-tiftieth of an inch in diameter.

A FOREIGN INDUSTRY. W« V— Millions of Split steel Bings, But
Don’t Make Any.
“I’ve handled and sold forty thousand gtoss of split key rings since 18(37,” said the little man in an overcoat and a white sweater, "and not one of them was of American make.” “Why, how is that'?” asked a New York Sun reporter. “Because there are none made in this country,” replied the little man, with a smile that lifted one corner of his gray mustache. “No, sir," he continued, “the making of split steel rings is an art that we haven’t got hold of yet, somehow, and I must say 1 often
winder at it.”
“Where arc they made, then?” “The best, sir, are made about fiftyseven miles outside of I’aris, at a little manufacturing town whose name I can't just now recall. The next best rings are made in Sheffield, England, while rings of inferior quality, made from Swedish iqon. are manufactured in Alsace. I don’t know that the steel in the French rings is any better than that used by the Sheffield manufacturers, but the Frenchmen in this, as in so many things, have got the hang of making their things look well. The Sheffield rings are polished with oil and emery, and that gives them a dull steely look, while the French rings are polished by the dry process, with what they call ‘crocus powder,’ a sort of
coarse rouge.”
“What are the extremes iu size of split rings?" the man was asked. “The smallest that I ever handled," he replied, "were three-sixteenths of an inch across. They are gilded when they reach this country and are used in

There is no doubt that both the typewriting machine and the phonograph are very ingenious and useful inventions, but the chief dillieulty with them, says the New York Times, is that they cannot be made to act automatically. It is in order to fill this want that a distinguished inventor, whose name is for the present withheld. has invented an automatic writer, and, judging from the private exhibition of the machine which was recently given in London to a committee of members of the Royal society, it bids fair to prove the greatest invention of
this or any age.
In appearance the machine is said to be not wholly unlike a typewriting machine. It, however, is provided with a sort of hopper, in which are placed blocks of type metal, each one of which is provided with a complete word, instead of a single letter. When 'his hopper is filled and the small electric engine which furni -lies the motive power of the machine is set in action it instantly begins to print. Of course, what is printed depends in a good degree upon the selection of words which are placed in the hopper, but it is understood the machine can be used for almost uny sort of composition. At the exhibition already mentioned the hopper was filled with a supply of words relating to the English political situation, and in ten minutes after the engine had been started the machine had fprinted two-full columns, each of about the length of an ordinary column of a newspaper. When these were read thpy were instantly recognized to be a speech on home rule in the general style of Mr. Gladstone. The hopper was next filled with a choice selection of the very finest words in the language, and the machine thereupon printed what was at once perceived to be au essay after the manner of Mr. Rusk in on political economy. More words were added and three pages of what any critic would have unhesi-
ture, farming implements, carpenter tools, one cow, one lot of barb wire, about 1,300 lbs) of Hour, 800 bushels of corn in crib, hal f in ' terest in 10 acres of growing wheat, eight! bushels of clover seed, poultry, etc., etc. TERMS.
