A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.^

[(Continuedfrom Sixth Page

Applied' ISciei^e^i

Poor inuocents! Thoy little knew how their pictures bad been taken in spite of themselves, and tbey little kyew the terrible cousequehces that were to flow from tbe stolen photograph so strangely made. Elmer took the little slide from the lantern, and was on tbe point of shivering it to fragments on the hearthstone, when be paused in deep thought. Was it wise to destroy it? Had be not betu preserve it? Perhaps be could some day solve tbe mystery that bung about it and find out the cause of Alina's grief and anger. Perhaps he might help her and then tbere came a softening about bis heart that to him seemed both new and wonderfully unscientific.

Shortly after this the dinner bell rang and he went down U» tbe dining room. Alma sent word that she had a severs headache, ancl could not appear. Mr. Belford waaafreadv tbere, and he looked at Mr. Franklin with an expression that made tbe young man uncomfortable in fplte of himself. Mr. Denny was nnusualiy thoughtful and silent, and conversation between tbe_ younger men was not particularly brilliant or entertaining. At last the dreary meal was finished. Mr. Belford rose first and went oat into the ball, Mr. Franklin followed him, and saw something that quite took bi.s breath away.

There lay tbe bat of the photograph double ribbons and all. Mr. Bel lord quietly took it up and put it on, and it fitted him perfectly. Elinor stopped abruptly ana looked at the" man with the utmost interest. The confidential clerk, tbe chimney builder, paid no attention, and quickly passed out of tbe front door. 'E. Franklin, you have made a discovery. Tbe pursuit of pure science never showed fuiytbing half so interesting as this. You had better raise a cloud on the subject. Gad! It's cloudy enough alreadv!'

This*to himself as he slowly went up stairs to his room. Selecting a pipe, he filled It, and finding a comfortable seat, he fired up and prepared to examine mentally toe events of the day. 'It was the confidential, making love to some village beauty, supposed to bo 'Green' by name, if not by nature. Alma loves him. That's bad. Perhaps she's engaged to him. Has she a ring? Yessaw it the other day. The affair Is cloudy —and—Gadl Blessed if 1 don't keep that lantern slide! It may be of use some day. Come in.'

This was daid In response to a knock heard at the door. Mr. Belford entered panatnu hat with two ribbons in band. •Good afternoon, Mr. Franklin. I thought I might find you here.' 'Yes, I'm at leisure. YVbat can I do for yon? Smoke?' 'No, I can't, to-day. Tbe fact is I have a bad tooth, and smoking troubles it.' 'Indeed? Let mo see it. I'mabitofa dentist.' 'Are you? That's fortunate, for it aches sadly, and our nearest dentist is five wile* away.' 'Sit right here by the window, where I can bavo a good light.'

Mr. Hellord, a physical coward, could not bear pain: and though ho was really unwilling to bo undor any obligations to «no whom ho considered but a mere jroffered boy, ho now sat down in the proffered chair, and opened bis mouth uutilully. 'Ah, yos—dontes sapientia. It's quite gone, shall I take It out for yon?' •Will it be painful?' 'No. I'll give you souio nitrous oxide. Without it, it might bo rather painful, for the tooth is much broken down.'

Mr. Belford hesitated. Had he better »placo himself so utterly at the mercy of this voung man? •It'wiil pafwott'ln a momoni.and leave no ill effects behind. You had better take it.' 'Well, I will luitmake it very mild, for I am afraid of these new fanglpd 110 tlou.s.' 'You need have no (bar,' said Elmer, bringing up his iron bo* ot nitrous oxide, and selecting a pair of forceps from tlio mass of instruments In one ot his trunks. 'It's very odd. It's the merest chance that I happened to have a pair of forceps. Are you ready now? Put this tube in your mouth, nud Lroathe easily and a a

The patient leaned back in t»ie chair, and the ainatear stood silently watching him. •It's a fearful risk, but I'm going to try It. I succeeded with Alma, aud fanoy I can with this fool. He was fool to run right Into my arm* in this fashion. No wonder bis wisdom tooth was rotten. I'll bave it out in a moment.'

Sl®Tako

All this to himself. The patleflt soou closed his eyes and fell into a deep

it strong. It wont hart you and

I must keep you quiet till the deed is done.' High science was to be brought to

the patleut over hlru and turned back his coat, and from tho inside pocket he drew forth

folded paper. He had caught a glimpse of it when he looked in the, man's mouth, and on the spur of the moment ho had oonoeived aud put into practice this bold stroke of applied science. Making the wan comfortable, and giving hitu a little air with the gas, be opened the paper and spread it wldf open before a pile of bdoka in the full sunlight. The patient stirred uneasily. With a breathless motion Elmer plied him with more gas, and he sighed sofliy and slumbered deeper than ever. With a spring he reached tbe camera, rolled it up betore the paper and sot in a new slide. It copied the paper with terrible certainty, and then, witnout reading it, Elmer quickly folded the paper tip again and restored it to bis patient's pocket.

The patient revived. He put bis finger in nis mouth. Tho toot was still in err. 'Whv, vou didn't touch it?' •No.'l Was delayed a bit. Take the gas again.'

Tbe man submitted, and Inhaled more gas. At the instant he slumbered the forceps were deftly applied and the tooth removed. Bathing the man a face with water, the young dentist watched him closely till he revived again. •Do you feel better?' 'Better! Why, I'm not hurt! Is it really out?' 'Yes. Tbere it is in the washbowl.' •You did very well, young man. Excellently. I'm sure I'm much obliged to you.' •You're welcome,' replied Mr. Franklin. *It was a trilling anair.'

Repeating his tbauks, the visitor put on his hat with its two ribbons and retired.

For an hour or more the youthful sou

of science worked over bis new negatives, ana then he quietly closed tbe shutters and lighted bis stereopticon. The first picture be threw upon the wall greatly pleased him.- With half parted lips, a placid smile, and closed eyes, tbe sleeping Alma lived in shadowy beauty before htm. 'Queer such a charming girl should Belong to such a fooL'

Not choice language for a son of pureeyed science, ut history is history, and tbe truth :r.ust be told. 'Now for the paper.* •••&£ llo took Alma's stolonfipictufe firofn tbe lantera, and inserted in Its place a positive copy of' the paper he had cap tured from her. lover. Suddenly thfero flashed upon tho wall document of the most startling and extraordinary character. He read it throngh several times before he could bring himself to understand tho peculiar nature of the important discovery he had made.' Long and earnestly he gazed upon tbe gigantic writing on tbe wall, and then be slowly opened oue of tbe shutters, and tbe magic writing faded away In the rosy light of tbe "betting sun.

A moment after tbe tea bell rang. This over, young Mr. Franklin said he must go out for his evening constitutional. He wished to be alone. Tbe events of the day, tbe discoveries which he had made, and, more than all, Alma's grief and silence at the supper table, very much disturbed him. He wished more air, more freedom to think over these things and tt devise seme plan for future action.

Alma. Whatofber? Was he notgrowing to liko her, perhaps love her? And she was engaged to that—that—he could not think of him with patience. The chimney, the two iu the photo, and the strange paper—what did they all mean? Why were both father and daughter in such evident distress? He pondered these things as ho walked tbrough tbe shadowy lanes, aud then, about eight o'clock,-he returned, in a measure cool and serene.

Tbere was alight in the parlor, and he went in and found Almasitting there alone. 'Ob, Elmer! I am so glad you have come. It is very lonely here. Father has gone to bed quite ill, and Lawrence asked me to sit up till he returned. He's goue to the village on some business. I can't see why he should. The stores aro closed and the last train has gone.'

She made a place for him on tho sofa, and ho sat down beside her. For wme tiqoe they talked indifferently upon various unimportant matters—the weather, the heat of the day, and other liko trivialtie3.

Suddenly she turned upon him, and exclaitAed, with ill-suppressed excitement: 'What did yon do with it, Elmer?' 'Do with what?' 'Tho picture.' 'Oh, yes—the lantern slide. I wish I had never made it. It's up stairs in my room.'

You didn't know that it was Alice Green?' No. How should 1? I did not even know who either of the people were till tho picture was thrown upon the wall.' 'Do vou know now—know both of tbem, I mean?' 'Yes—L think I do. One was Mr.

'Yes, Elmer, you may as well say it. It was Lawrence.' El trier, thinking of nothing to say, wisely said nothing. After a brief pause Alma said slowly, as if talking to herself: 'It was a cruel thing to do.' •I did not mean to be cruel.' 'Oh, my dear—cousin, don't think of it in that way. It was Lawrence who was so cruel.'

Yes. It was not very gentlemanly but perhaps he does not care for—for this person.' 'He does. The picture was only confirmation of what 1 had heard before. I've done with him,' she added, in a sort of suppressed desperation. 'I'm going to break our engagement this verv night. I know it will nearly break my heart and father will bo very angry with me but, Elmer, come uearer let me tell you all about it. I am so afraid of him. He has such an evil eye, and yon remember the ohimney—the day you came—I thought he would kill you be was so angry.'

Evidently she was in sore trouble. Even ber language was marked by doubt and difficulty. 'Advise me, Elmer. Tell me what to do. I hardlv know which way to turn, and indeed I am so lonely. Father is busy every day, and I can't talk to him. And Lawrence—I dare not trust him.'

Here she began to cry softly, and hid her face In her handkerchief. The son of science was perplexed. What should be door say? All,this was new to him. That a young and pretty girl should appeal to him with so much eafnestnoss disconcerted him, and he did not know how to act. A problem In triangulation or a knotty question In physics would have charmed him and braoed bim up for any work. This was so new and so peculiar that he said, 'Don't cry cousin,' and repented it at once as a very silly speech. •I must. It dees me good.' •Then I would.'

Thereupon they both laughed heartily and felt better. "He recovered his wiU| at once. 'Do you think you really love him?*

Tne man of science was now himself ag*in. •No, I don't.' •Then—well, it's hardly my place to say It.' •Then break the engagement. That's what you mean. I intend to do so but, Idlmer, I wish you could bo here with me.' •It would be impossible. Ob, I've an idea.' •Have you? Tbere! I knew you'd help me. You're so bright, Elmer, and kind

He quickly nipped her enthusiasm in the bud. •Do you think you could telegraph me from your pocket?' •I don't know what you mean.' •You kuow the letters now perfectly, and if you had your hand on an armaatare, you could send off messages quickly?' *Ys. Yon know I learned the alphabet in one day, and it's nearly a week sinew you put up that line to my room. Tbink how we have talked with tt already. Aud you remember the tea table when the Lawaons and the Stebbens were here. Didn't I answer all your questions about Minna Lawson, while I was talking with her, by tapping on the table with a spoon?* •Yes. So far so good hot now I'm going totrv dangerous and difficult piece of scientific work, and you must belp me. My plan is for you to keep in telegraphic communication with me while the interview goes on. Then, If be is insulting or troublesome, you cm call me.' •How bright of you, Elmer. If Lawrence bad been half so good and kind aud bright—if he knew half as much as TOO do—I might have loved him longer.'

Alma sat down on a box, and her new Lohengrin set to work with shears and file to make something that would answer for an armature and still be small enough to hide in the band. Cutting off two small pieces of insulated copper wire, he bound them together side by side at one end. The loose ends he separated by crowding a kit of rubber between them and then with tbe file and his knife he removed a small part of tbe insulating covering till the bright copper showed at the tip of each wire.

There! You can hide that in the pocket of your dress, or bold it in your hand even. When you wish to close tbe circuit, pinch tbe wires, and they will touch each other. When you withdraw the pressure the rubber will push them apart.'

Alma declared she could do It easily, and the armatare having been connected with the wires and the battery, they both ^immediately prepared to go to tbe parlor.

Down the stairs they crept, slowly unwinding two delicate coils of insultaed wire

back against the wall well out of sight. When they came to the mats Alma lifted them up, and Elmer laid the wires down and then the mats covered them from sight. 'Now you ait Here in a comfortable chair, and hide the wires in the folds of your dress. I'll leak them oil over tbe carpet behind yeu, and unless the Lawrence is brighter than I think he is, he'll not find them.

These mysterious operations were bardly completed before the door bell rang and Lawrence came in, He did not seem particularly pleased *to find Mr. Franklin there sitting up with Alma, and the meeting was not a very cordial one. After a few unimportant remarks Mr. Franklin said that he must retire. •I'd like tokpow, miss, whr.t that puppy said to you. He's been here all the evening, I dare say.' •He has, Lawrence but I will not have my friends spoken of in that way.' •'Your friends indeed! What do you intend to do about it?'

Meanwhile her hand, persistently kept in her pocket, nervously moved the electric armature, and a sudden twinge of pain startled her. Her finger, caught between the wires, felt tbe shock of a returning current. Suddenly the pain Hashed again, aud she understood t. Elmer was replying to her. She forced herself to read his words by the pain the wires caused her, and she spelled out: •Keep cool. Don't fear him.' 'Seems to me you're precious silent, miss.' 'One might well keep silence while ou*re using siich language as you do, awrence Belford.' ,, 'Who's abetter right?' 'No man has a better right not to be a gentleman, and as for your right, I have decided to withdraw it.' 'What do you mean?' he cried in sud den anger.

She drew her hand out of her pocket, slowly took off her engagement ring, and said: 'That.'

'Oh! We'll have none of that. Yon may put your ring on again.' 'I shall never wear it again.' .{ 'Yes, you will.' 'I Bhall not.' 'Look here, Miss Denny. We'll have no nonsense. You are going to marry me next week. I suppose you know that mortgage is to be foreclosed on Monday, and you and your father will be beggars. I know how to stop all this, and I can do it. Marry me, and go to New York with me on Wednesday, ard the mortgage will be with drawn.' 'We may find the will before that.' 'Oh! You may, you may. Yott and your father have been searching for that will these ten years*. You haven't found it yet, and you won't.'

Alma under any ordinary circumstances would have quailed beford this man. As it was, those trails of copper wire down berdress kept ber busy. She rapidly sent off tbrough them nearly all that was said, ana her knight or tbe battery sat up stairs copying it off alone in his room, and almost swearing' with anger and excitement.

Suddenly the messages stopped. He listened sharply at the ioor. Not a sound. The old bouse was still as a grave. Several minutes passed, and nothing came. What had happened? Had he cut the wires? Had Alma fainted? Suddenly the sounder spoke out sharp and clear in the silent room: 'Elmer, come!'

He seised 9 revolver from tbe bureau, and thrusting it into his pocket tore off the strip of white paper that had rolled out of the instrument, and with it in his band be went quickly down stairs. He opened tbej door Without knocking, and advanced into- the middle of the room.

The moment he entered, Alma sprang up from ber seat, pulling out the two wires as she did so, and throwing ber arm about tbe young man, she cried out in an agony of fear and s'jame: •Oh, Elmer, Elmer! Take me' away! Take me to my father!'

He supported her with his right arm, and turned to face her assailaut with the crumbled ribbon of paper still in his hand. •What does this mean, sir? Have you been ill treating my cousin?* 'Go to bed, boy. It's very late for school children to be up.' •Your language is Insulting, sir. I re-

A Great Remedy!

MR. LUTES of this city has had for several years a receipt for the cure of Rheumatism. which is a quick and sure cure for this terrible affliction. He has only used it an personal friends now and then without charge. But in the last year the demand for his medicine has been s6 great, and being constantly asked to placo it before the public, he has concluded to devote his whole time and attention to this truly wonderful medicine. He can be found at all times at his residence on Swan street between Sixth and Six-and-a-Half streets. Below we givo a list of a few persons who have tried this medicine and are now well:
