'Frlghtenecl," echoed the nymph, looking for the first time toward Philip; "do you think lam afraid of him 7" drawing herself np to her full height, end clenching the tiny st,harder; then, turning again to Ilarxy, she asked, defiantly, Who are you, sir, and what do joa want?" "This little bonnet," replied Ilarry, advancing still closer, and, pickisg it up from the ground where it had fallen, "I fay, yc: are a regular Tartar, aren't you?" "And what if I am, old impudence 1" she retorted, quickly, snatching the bonnet from Ms hand, and preparing to dart away. "Wait, Ilarry," said Tbilip; "let me speak to her, you only vex her;" then, turning to her, "won't you look at this ?" holding the picture bo Ehe could see it. Glancing eearchingly at him, and Bceming pleased with his gentle manner, the angry frown slowly left her brow, her clenched hand relaxed, and, after a moment's hesitation, she was beside him, gazing with childish delight and admiration. " Why 1" she exclaimed, " that is just like this spot, exactly; see that old mossy log, and those trees and atones. Oh, it is just lovely ! Did you make it ?" she added, curiously. " Yes, and, if you would only sit down on that log for a short time, I would put you in, too; would that please you ?" " Oh, wouldn't it ? Would you make one for me, too ? If you only would I'd keep it as long as I lived." "And think of me, I suppose, when you looked at it," ha added, smiling at her earnestness. "Indeed I would; I'll never forget vcu, never," vehemently. " I never saw any one half so nice as you are; shall I ever see you again ?" " 1 hope so, little one; I'm going back to the city soon, but trust I shall have the pleasure of seeing you many times before I go." During this conversation, Ilarry had started home, expecting his companion would soon follow, but not until late in the afternoon did he make his appearance; A telegram was awaiting him, recalling him immediately to the city, and he was obliged to leave ou the night train, without again seeing his little rustic friend. Not until he reached home did he recollect that he had not ascertained her name. "However, it will not be dimcult to find her, for I could recognize her among a thousand," he said to himself. Three months, elapsed and he was again at Wild wood, that being the name of the little village. Immediately on hi3 arrival he sought the place of their first meeting. It was late autumn now, and the leaves, which then, bright and green, had crowned the forest monarchs, were now lying sere and yellow at his feet. lie seated himself on the old log, from which the moss hud now crumbled, and waited as if expecting her to appear, but she came not. Returning to the village he made inquiries. "WlS it the widow Wilde's niece," they asked; "she had gone with her aunt some two months or more, no one knew where; to the city," they thought. "Was ehe a relative ?" " No." " Then why was ho so anxious to find her?" and he returned to the city, to dream over the picture, which was tenfold dearer to him now that he had so hopelessly lost the original. " Going to Mrs. I.Iidileton's party tonight, Phil ?" asked Ilarry Thornton, as he Eat pufang a fragrant cigar, watching the wreaths of eoaoke curling fantastically above his head. "I understand it is to be a select aJlair, given in honor cf one JILss Madge IIorelL I have not r.u t her, but Xod IT'jTu:d fc-.iya she is a da-hii g brunette, bright, bewitching v :id Lt autirul; just your style cf beauty, i a't it ?

" Who is that gentleman talking with Miss Lane? lie reminds me of one whom I have met before." "That is one of nature's noblemen, Philip Chester by name, and is my particular friend. lie has a romance, quite interesting, which, if you care to listen, I will relate." "I am fond of romance, please'do," she said, with an eagerness that surprised him. "About eight years ago," he commenced, " Phii and I took a run down to the little village of Wildwood. "We passed the time pleasantly, trouting and boating alternately. Phil, being somewhat of an artist, often amused himself by sketching bits of scenery. One day, while engaged on a particularly-romantic scene, we encountered a wood-nymph, such aa we read of in Scott's poems.' Phil persuaded her to let him sketch her, and, would . you believe it, although she was not more than 10 years of age, he fancied himself in love with her 1 " He has never met her since, being called suddenly away the same night of their meeting, and, not having ascertained her name, it was impossible for him to find her on his return to the village some Few months later. It seems a hopeless vigil, but he has not yet despaired. Only the other day he said he felt more hopeful than ever. Do you know," he continued, "that you strangely remind me of this little forest maid?" " Nonsense !" she said, while a rosy flush overspread her face, making her more beautiful than ever. "Tour story has interested me greatly, and I would like to become acquainted with the hero of your romance : perhaps I can furnish a sequel to your little story." "I will present him immediately," and, starting np, he was about to rush off in search of his friend, when she detained him. "Noc to-night, please; I am not prepared; but to-morrow if you will bring your friend and and the picture you spoke of I " she paused. " With pleasure," he responded; " our dance, I believe," and, offering his arm, they were soon among the merry crowd of dancers. Madge Morell descended to the parlor with a light heart, next day when her visitors were announced. Never had she been in gayer spirits. She fairly charmed her listeners. Philip found himself entranced, wondering if she were real flesh and blood. "I am dreaming," he mentally exclaimed. "She is my ideal of a woman, j est what I have pictured to myself what my wood-nymph would be could I find her." "By the way, Phil, did you bring that sketch ? Miss Morell has promised a sequel to your romance, which I was relating to her. I am somewhat impatient to liear it," broke in Harry, arousing him from the reverie into which he had faller. The sketch was produced, and, after looking at it for some time, Madge turned to Philip; and asked: "Have you ever thought that this child must, ere this, have grown to womanhood ?" " I have 1" exclaimed the impulsive Harry. " I have pictured to Phil, time and time again, what she must be like now. Her wild, out-door life, which she probably continued, would render her complexion of the wild Indian cast, quite a contrast to our city belles. She would need training, probably. More than likely she has grown up in utter ignorance, and is now married to some lout of a farmer, her time being chiefly spent in attending the pigs and chickens. Imagine, if you can, her seated on a three-legged stool, trying to extract the lacteal fluid frcm a refractory cow. It is not more absurd than is Phil's foolish faucy." Both laughed heartily at Harry's ideal picture, and Madge, recovering her gravity, excused herself. Returning shortly with a small package, she bade Philip open it. lis gazed in astonishment, as, hastily unwrapping it, he found it contained the duplicate sketch. "Where is she ?" he cried, eagerly. "Have you seen her? Where is she, and what ia she Hke?J Anything like Hairy Las represented her?" "In cue re?prcr, certainly not; she re mains sinle; true to the first alfeclica awakened in her young heart." "Where is the? Please do net tee ma longer in ra?pense," cried Phil:". uuihh? t) r. tr :u Lis :z:'.lrx. " II t I th r ) 'J thr I tL cut : - r r; : 1 it If

i Left alone, the lovers were not long in giving satisfactory explanations. Madge quickly told him how she had watched for his return in vain, how her father had returned from India, and placed her in school until her education was finished. Afterwards of their years' sojourn in Europe, and their subsequent return. "And you remembered me all the time," he asked, and she replied, " how could I forget you ?" but we will intrude no farther ; sufSce it to &ay that shortly after there was a wedding, in which Madge Morell anil Philip played a prominent part. Harry Thornton, good-natured and gay, often recalls the scene of their first meeting when he visits them at their pleasant home in Wildwood, where he is always a welcome guest. Fbezpobt, IU. USEFUL INFORMATION, Small pieces of sponge soaked in creosote will keep away black ants. A bottle of cement, a bucket of paint, with a hammer and nail3, will save to any household ten times their cost every year. Branches of the elder-bush, hung in the dining-room of a house, will clear the room of flies. There is an odor which the insects detest. If pegged boots are occasionally dressed with petroleum between the soles and upper leather they will not be apt to rip. If the soles of boots and shoes are dressed with petroleum they will resist wet and wear well. The pegs, it is said, are not affected by dryness after being well saturated with the oil. A blace-and-blub spot is neither pretty nor pleasant, but there is no reason any small boy should be disfigured with one, unless he like 3 it as an evidence of his war-like propensities., As soon as he comes in crying, because "Tommy hit him," cover the mark of Tommy's knuckles with moistened starch, and it will immediately disappear. Accokpiko to the Pharmacist, an ink that cannot be erased even with acids is obtained by the following recipe: To good gall ink add a strong solution of fine soluble Prussian blue in distilled water. This addition makes the ink, which was previously proof against alkalies, equally proof against acids, and forms a writing fluid which cannot be erased without destruction of the paper. The ink writes greenish blue, and turns black. A gentleman gives the following advice in relation to dogs : "If," eays he, " you enter a lot where there is a vicious dog, be careful to remove yeur hat or cap as the animal approaches you, hold the same down by your side between yourself and the dog. When you have done this you have secured perfect immunity from an attack. The dog will not bite you if this advice is followed. Such is my faith in this policy that I will pay all doctor bills for dog bites and funeral expenses for deaths from hydrophobia." Swimming may be taught in two days in this simple and inexpensive manner: A pole eight feet or ten feet long ia secured and projected from the stern of a boat, an iron ring being at the end of the pole. A man rows the boat slowly in smooth water : another stands up in the boat and supports the learner by a girth around the chest and a rope passed through a ring of the pole. He directs the learner how to make his strikes with his arms and legs (frog lifee), supports him easily in the water, and gives him confidence. The third day he may dispense with the support."

DOWN TO BATE. Special Cases Crowing Oat of th XjOoIlana and i'lorlda Elections Tffelch President Hayes lias Provided For. From tfee Washington Post Some time ego the JPost published a list of the " special cases" that had been brought to the attention of Mr. Hayes, and disposed of by him or his associates. This list was far from being complete, aa it included "ily the most prominent. of the ballot-box staffers, election-return forgers, and tha thieves who had been rewarded for their peculiar services, but the following is what might be styled a more ambitions' effort. Doubtless it is yet far from being complete. Doubtless there are hundreds of petty criminals, such as manufacturers or forgers of affidavits, and manipulators of small election precincts, who have been shoved into out-of-the-way places, of whom the naiion is as yet oblivious, but the following enumeration will answer all practical purposes. Of course th& man wno is indebted to this worthy crowd for the office he holds has no object in lifting them from the mire into places of emolument, of trust, and of power. It was purely accidental, of course. To believe otherwise is to believe Mr. Hayes privy in some measure to the frauds of which he is the beneficiary, and that will never do. We publish the list, therefore, only for the purpose of calling attention to tne wonderful coincidences which sometimes occur in politics. J.

I 1 t Hayes civil-service order of June 22, 1877, which declared "xto assessment for political purposes on cScera ci subordinates should be allowed." The methods for raising money arepreelselj those which were practiced under Grant! The salaries are all regularly arscssed in advance, at a fixed percentage, to bring a certain amount into the treasury of the Congressional Committee, of which that -eminent reformer, Charles Foster, is now the directing mind. A collector,, who receives 3 percent, on the toll lie gathers in, goes around with a book into all the public offices, takes down the names of the subscribers, and', at the close cf the month, those signatures are recognized by the disbursing officer as authority to deduct a certain portion of the salary of the clerks. Nearly all the chiefs of bureaus and divisions, who draw large pay and perform little service, have set an example to their subordinates by subscribing more than the sum assessed on their salaries, in order to make their loyalty conspicuous. At first there was a partial resistance to the assessments, under the delusion that the civil-service order had some meaning, and that those who obeyed its letter and spirit would be protected. That error of judgment was soon corrected, for it was discovered that every person who refused to be assessed was reported, and John Sherman ordered summary dismissal in his department and its branches a3 the penalty for recusancy. Tho Sixth Auditor's OSice, which settles the Postofilee accounts, and is known as the Botany Bay of the treasury, with 300 or mora clerks, was selected as the first point of attack; and, after one removal for this cause, the whole force fell in and even sought to subscribe as a measure of self-protection. Hayes gave Ms name to head the list cf contributors, which of itself was a warning to the whole army of officeholders that they were expected to do likewise. But he has not yet paid in a dollar to the fund. He. is willing enough to see the poor clerks made to pay, but, with 50,000 a year and nearly everything free that makes up the ac tual cost of living, he loess his iron chest and intimates that his name alone ought to be sufficient, because his example put tens cf thousands into the political exchequer that might not have got there without it. He has shown himseli in this matter to be a double fraud. First, by encouraging assessments which he had formally declared should not be allowed. Sec ondly, by lending his name without making it good with a money value. The consistency of Li character hasbeen maintained in this duplicity. If he had been an honorable mnn, even after the crime by which he reached the Pres idency, Hayes would have seen made good the advances of money whicn Zacn Chandler had loaned for his benefit, af ter John Sherman and othra failed to redeem their pledges. But he never lifted a finger to pay what every gam bler, even, would have regarded as a debt of honor, and dismissed it as a trifle unworthy of attention. He first began by cheating his opponents, and now he cheats his friends. New York Sun. John Sherman on the Stump. A correspondent says of John Sherman's speech at Toledo, Ohio: He was constantly interrupted by jeers and insults from the audience something that never before happened any other public man in this city. "Eliza Pinkston," "Mrs. Jenks," "Jim Anderson," were howled at him from all parts of the houee. When Hayes' name was mentioned, a tremendous yell of " Fraud !" went up, compelling Sherman to cease speaking. The interruptions were so constant that he delivered, his proposed speech only in part, but lost his temper and went into a personal explanation of his official conduct. The audience was made up of Democrats, Republicans and workingmen in about equal parts. The crowd, which was immense, packing the house, would not hear tJhei man's defense of the Louisiana steal, but hooted him down with cries of "Fraud" and "Eight by seven," mingled with calls for "Sweet Eliza" and " Mrs. Pinkston." The Secretary's meeting closed with shout? and cheers for the National candidate and platform. Hi humiliating treatment was the greater because witnessed by many distinguished men, including Speaker Grosvenor. of the Ohio House, Gen. Robinson, of the State Republican Committee, Congressman Willets, of Michigan, and others. It was one of the most remarkable demonstrations known in the history of Ohio politics. He advocated resumption; said that the Republican, party was for keeping out eni in circulation all the rrenIv1. 3 thut ecu" 3 r::lu::i d t -J 1 par a. ..ii a were coi li in 1" 7J. but 1th vote cf ths ilt i'. w.i3 1 for impu lully 'fl V c X v LoiiiKiu. m 1cf Ch.D;" i: -r tn: 1 to chc lly r ,3 fully '..j D :ru" -t ju Q: - u; t: -? i : t T- TV.'., i-i : c.
