JACK'S TOIL.

Jack Barr settled his tarpaulin a trifle more jauntily on his head took a lost preparatory pull at his pipe sonorously cleared his voice and began: "Wulys," he said reflectively, gazing at tho well-filled bowl of the pipe "widyg arc a wonderful institution! there 8 something about a widy that there ain't about any other created woman. To put it poetically, gentlemen," looking from his pipe to his auditors, "the widy is like a rose. In the rose you'd call it a perfume, in the widy a charm. You take the rose and smell of it, and you can't, for the life of you, say what makes it the queen of flowers. You can only say it's arose! Ah "Hear, hear!" shouted Jack's auditors uproariously.

Jack raised his pipe to his lips with serene satisfaction, indulging in a placid whifl' till the noisy demonstratkm came to an cud.

Quiet restored, Jack resumed: "1 repeat my last words. You can only say it's a rose. So, gentlemen, it is with the widv. That something about her is nameless. Afar or near you fuel it, but you only say—it's the widv."

Ii, hi!" responded the audience. Jack took another puff and somewhat sadly continued: "(ientlemcn, we have so far had tho widy in general now we'll take the widy in particular—-my widy. Gentlemen, she w. as clean-timbered a craft as ever set sail for a Imslmml. Her eyes were as blue as the ocean, her lips like two coral bunks, and her teeth and skin like solid sea-foam! not a speck on the whiteness of cither. And the color on her choek! Bless you! no rose ever equaled it whilo her chestnut-brown hair was enough to entangle tho soul of of well, of a sailor! It got met "Well, tho upshot of my ensnaring was that 1 took board with her. She kept a neat, handy girl, ami nobody ever had a nicer home. Tho longer I stayed the mow I swore it should be mine forever, and tho widy with it. I didn't lose any time, but set straight in to courting, and with very good success. Mrs. Merrihew, soon acknowledged that I was the man for her, and tho thing was settled. "Hut. about two weeks before the banns were to be published, I began to notice Mrs. Merrihew looked worried, ami a little mora worried every day. For ten days or so, she put rue off. At last she told me all about her trouble.

Tm an orderly woman, you know, Jack?' she said. 'Such another dou't live!' I cried. 'Well, Jack,' she answered, "there's a ehest,' pointing to one aerosstheroom, all done up fanciful in chintx, 'there's a chest that won't stay in order one night! First, 1 accused Mary Ann' (the girl) 'of meddling with it Sho most Veft me, she was so wad, and I soon found 1 was all wrong. But who wai at my chest every bussed night, ami who is? There ain't a thing in it but old bills and papers. They are of use to mo aftd 1 often look over them, but they ain't of use to any other living soul! Jack. 1*11 toll you what I think. 'Well?' "'I think the chest's bewitched! And Mary Ann thinks so, too, and threatens to go if I don't burn it! As true as you live. Jack, I put that chest in apple pie order every day. and every night it't turned topsy turvy. I lock it, and put the keys under mv pillow, and lock and bolt my door, and screw down the windows—it's all the same. The chest is sight the next morning!' "The widy stopped to sob, and I sat still to think. It was curious, very curious. I couldn't deny it, and didn't try to. At last I hit on a plan.

Til stay down here and watch!' I •aid. "The widy first looked at roe with eyes as hlg as saucers, and then she did something better. She threw her arms around tuv neck. Naturally, we wandered off from the chest then, But before bedtime we got back to it, and we agreed that I should alt there in! the dark, keeping close In a corner awav from the chest. If I heard nothing. II was to do nothing. If I heard a rustling among the papers I was to strike a match and look into it That all fixed, the widy left me looking as happy as an angel "But somehow. I felt pretty aneer when she left me alone there with Use glim doused. It wasn't a hit like knowing what you were going to meet, and meeting it under a good light. 1 had my own id ears about witchei. and they wasn't pleasant idears. I began to see eves glowering at me through the dark, and to feel slimy hands touching my neck, and to hear whisperingrofcws and all over the room.

•oft biasing laugh* 1 st nek it out till just as the clock struck twelve, and then I g*v« In to the witches. 1 wouldn't *-«tayed in that room another hour for two widy»—no, not for a down! "With .that ip my mind I started np

to rua. But, bless "you when I got up I couldn't run! My legs and my feet were froze stiff. There was no more ran in me than in the chest! Just as I got square on my feet there was a soft fumbling sound at the door, and then a horrid rustling of something moving in the dark. "I had been frightened thinking of the witch, but I was worse frightened with the witch there! I heard the thing

fo

to the chest I heard the lock torn heard the lid go up I heard the papers rustle. I would have run then, for my legs began to feel a little alive by that time, but I was afraid to go in the dark. The matches were in my band. I drew one quick across my coat sleeve it was very bad smelling but very quiet as it blazed up. "I didn't dare look at the chest till I'd got the candle lighted, for fear I'd let the match drop and be in the dark again. If I had, 1 think I'd a-goneinto a lit. "Mighty sirs! the things I thought of were nothing to what presently faced me! After the candle was lighted I raised it over my head and looked at die chest. In front of it stood something that drew me to it a'most without my knowing. "It*was a woman I saw but what kind of a woman I never guessed till I got to the end of the chest, where I could see the face. As I looked at that, felt my hair rise and my flesh creep. "The face was completely covered by dirty white kid mask, with boles for the eyes, nostrils, and mouth, and tied behind the grey, frowsy head with two dirty muslin strings. The hands were covered with two dirty white kids, and were throwing the papers in the chest hither and yon, as if hunting for something. "Directly, something about the gown •«he wore made me burstoutwitha word .hat wasn't good. It seemed to me I'd een that gown! And then it came to me that I'd seen the gown on the same person. I set the candle down in a hur•y, ami made a dive for the woman. "As I did so, she raised herself up and looked at me with her cold, stony eyes. I shivered, and fell back. But

S

next minute I had her by the arm. 'If it costs me my life, rm goin't see under this kid!' I shouted. "The woman seemed to tremble all over. But I didn't wait to see what the trembling meant I got hold of the kid aud peeled it off."

Jack stopped and gently stuffed a little more tobacco in his pipe. "Goon, go on!" shouted his impatient auditors what did you see?"

Jack turned an eye of sadness on the questioners. He answered in two doleful words: "The widy." "Tho widyP"

Jack mournfully nodded his head. "Them kids was her 'cosmetics,' she said, and her brown wig and freezetts were upstairs with—her sea-foam teeth!"

Jack groaned and hurried on: "She was walking in her sleep, you see, and when she 'wakened up therein front of me, she poured out the greatest lamentations you ever heard." "Well?" "Well, gentlemen, I ran away. I knew if I'd see her with them freezetts and things on again, I'd be a goner. She was a—widy, you know." "And you didn't marry her?" "I couldn't marry my great grandmother, gentlemen.

With that solemn rejoinder. Jack returned to his pipe and his meditations.

The Blind Lion.

In an article on tho Grosvenor Gallery tho London Times says: "Mr. J. T. Nettleship is a painter who has exhibited for some few years, and his animal pictures have attracted attention not only for tho knowledge they show of tho real wild life of the creatures, but for a tragic force and passion which is found rarely indeed in tho works of an animal painter. A certain hardness and dryness of color has interfered with their artistic effect and besides, they are commonly on so large a scale that it requires a special picture gallery to accommodate them. Manv visitors to last year's Grosvenor exhibition will remember the 'Dirge in the Desert' the lion roaring as he stands over his mate, while she, stricken to death, laps a few drops of water from the desert pool, her cubs playing unconsciously about her. Tho picture which hangs this year at the end of the long gallery might well form a pendant to this it is as true, as grim, and as forcible as the other. It is called 'Blind,' and it represents a huge old lion, blinded by the storm which is raging in the distance, stepping among the rocks which he knows no longer, and over whose edge he is about to fall. The gleam of his blinded eyes is terrible the misery and bewilderment of the poor, distracted beast indicated as it is in the attitude of his limbs, and even in the droop of his Up, is most pathetic and the horror of the picture is completed by the group of hideous hyenas—painted to the very life—who have waited on the monarch during his life, and are ready to eat him now that his destruction seems at hand. Mr. Nettleship has made a conspicuous success with this picture, which, if adequately engraved, would certainly become widely known. He wants the technical finish of Landseer and Rosa Bonheur but in knowledge of the life of wild animals and in I sheer imaginative power he is superior to both of them."

CJarlyle and Emerson as Letter Writers. The fine touch in Emerson's letters, as in his other writings, is always the spiritual touch. For the rest felicitous as they are, for the most part they suffer a little by comparison with Carlyle's they are less natural, more composed, hare too studied a quaintness. It was his practice, apparently, to make two drafts of these communications. The violent color, the large, avalanche-move-ment of Carlyle's style—as if a mass of earth and rock and vegetation had dctached itself and came bouncing and. bumping forward—make the efforts of his correspondent appear a little pale and stiff. There is always something high and pure in Emerson speech however, and it has often a perfect propriety—seeming, in answer to Carlyle's extravagances, the note of reason and justice. "Faith and love are apt to be spasmodic in the best minds. Men live on the brink of mysteries and harmonies into which they never enter, and with their hand on the door-latch they die outside.

An Actor's Vicissitudes.

The other d»v Max Freeman told me a story about Charles Wyndham which I think will bear repeating, "I saw Wyndham," he said, "for the first time in'Berlin in 1874, He was playing in a Germanized version of Brighton translated by Paul Lindau, called "The First and Only Love," the first act of which was laid in the Hotel Bellerue, Dresn. I didn't see Wyndham again until a short time since in Philadelphia, when I reminded Wyndham of bis Berlin performance.

The palm for speed in this country is

Centennial two hours and a half was the shortest time known between NeiD York and Philadelphia. Since then twohour trains have become frequent upon the time-table, and the competition as to which road should make that time the oftener has been very sharp. According to the schedule, the tram leaving Jersey City by the Pennsylvania at 4:08 P* M. runs at the rate of *47.8 miles an hour, while that on the Bound Brook route runs at the rate of 47.7, but has a mile less distance to run and less populous towns to traverse. It is difficult to say which best deserves the palm for fast time. For long distance the New York and Chicago limited is without a rival in the world, making, as it does, 918 miles in twenty-five hours. The fastest long-distance train, and the fastest train for any distance of more than fifty miles, is the express on the Orleans line between Paris and Bordedux, which runs 359 miles in nine hours and ten minutes, or thirty-nine miles an hour.

The elements entering into the shortening of time between two distances are many and they increase rapidly, even out of proportion to the gain in the speed. Exceptional runs have been made on nearly every railway in the country, and there are few first-class roads over which a passenger coach has not been hauled at the rate of a mile a minute. Mr. Vamlerbilt has often traveled one hundred miles in one hundred minutes, and an engine has drawh a single conch between Philadelphia and New York in ninety-five minutes. The 4:08 train previous^ spoken of always runs some parts of the distance at a rate of more than a milo a minute, and its easiest run is from New Brunswick to Trenton—twenty-five miles in twentysix minutes and a half. The speed is only possible, howevbr, vith a heavy engine, heavy steel rails, a solid roadbed, a comparatively light train, slight grades, anu easy curves. All of these elements have their force, and how great force will be better understood when it is known that the improvements now making on the Pennsylvania will enable the compauv to shorten the time between New York and Philadelphia ten to fifteen minutes, without any faster running than is done on many long stretches now. The straightening of che track and the moving of the bridge across the Passaic and the finishing of the last cut through Bergen hill will save four minutes in the eteht miles between Newark and New York, and the reducing of the graje and sinking of tracks through the northern part of Philadelphia will help almost as much more. When the work is completed to New York in one hundred minutes" will be a reality rather than a possibility.—Philadelphia Press.

The high rate of the accommodation train does not offset the worry and fret of the frequent stops, and a long run without getting over much ground is an annoyance almost as grievous .as being side-tracked in the broiling sun on a hot summer's day to wait for a belaid freight train or an aggravating excursion which blocks the way. England, as a recent essay by Mr. A. L. Boch shows, surpasses us both in the number and speed of its fast trains, but Germany, though only a little behind, can hardly claim any superiority over this country in the matter of fast trains. The fastest train in the world for some years, and it probably is so still, though its time has been somewhat reduced, is "The Flying Dutchman," which used to cover the distance between London and Bristol, 118} miles, in two hours. Germany follows with a train frcto Berlin to Hanover, which runs 152$ miles in three hours and forty-eight minutes, which is at the rate of 51.7 miles an hour.

his investment), with a capital of $f00,000, and 4,000 shares of f25 each. The object as the title indicates, is to furnish single persons, families, parties, weddings, etc., with nicely-prepared meals and refreshments of the best Kind, whenever and wherever they may be ordered. The company has engaged a noted chef, with a corps of trained assistants. Buying large quantities for cash, it will be able to save a considerable percentage on the general prices of retailers, and a handsome amount likewise by cooking for a large number in one place and by a complete system.

The corporation proposes to lease, for twenty-one years, one or two lots in a central quarter, near Broadway and Thirty-fourth street, and to build a model kitchen, store-room, offices, etc. Meals and refreshments will be delivered bv a newly-invented wagon, with special apparatus. Each meal for each family will be put up at the general kitchen in a tight coffee box, on special silver-plated dishes and platters, made to fit tne box, and kept warm by steam generated by a small heater under the wagon. This method has been thoroughly tested, meals paving been delivered at long distance in good condition. Each familv is to nave also a willow basket in wkich the bread, sugar, cold pastry and other food will be kept A small refrigerator will be attached to each wagon for transporting in warm weather butter, salads, creams, eto. When the wagon has delivered the breakfast the basket and hot box, to be exclusively used by one and the same family, will be left, the empty basket and box of the previous meal being earned off, and in this way no time will be lost

Although the prices to be charged have not been iully determined, a careful estimate has been made, and they will be, for breakfast and dinner, for service of suyh food as the caterers may select and, send, or for service from a printed bill of fare, about as follows: Ono person per week..... ..$12 or 14 Two persons per week 18 or 22 Three persons per week 23 or 28 Four persons per week 28 or 34 Five persons per week 33 or 40 Six persons per week 88 or 46

The higher figures are for the bill-of-fare meals, which will give change of breakfast and dinner daily, and be issued to patrons three days in advance, affording large variety and including fruits and luxuries in season. The lower figures also embrace a good variety, almost the sole difference between them being the difference of what is known as table d'hote and a la carte. The amount of food served will be sufficient for at least one or two more persons in each case, owing to the number of courses at each meal. Luncheon will be served to tljose desiring it at rates to be agreed on. Where there are children in the family, special arrangements and prices will be made according to age and circumstances.

The prices are not oheap, certainly, on the face but it is claimed the company will furnish the best material, cooked in the best style. Its meals are not intended for persons of small means. Many of the restaurants of the strictly family hotels, and those connected with large and high-grade apartment^houses in the city, are $15 a week per person, irrespective of numbers.— New York Tribune.

"Not yet The cross-tie is my invention." "How did yon happen to think of it?" "Well, I didn't happen to think of it, exactly. I started out deliberately to invent a substitute for the wooden crosstie or sleeper, and I kept steadily at it until I was successful. I thought of paper. There are scores of milk in the country where paper, straw, prairiegrass, and other fibrous substances are converted into straw boards. The process is simple. The straw is reduced to a pulp and ran oat Into boards. These straw boards are sold all over the country as substitute* for wood. My invention utilises straw board.

DKAB SIR,—Please allow me the privilege of giving my testimony regarding the wonderful curative properties of your invaluable mcdlclne, Hunt's Remedy. During the past six or seven years I have been a great sufferer from kidney disease, and during a great part of the tim? my sufferings have been so intense as to be indescribable. Only those who have suffered by this dread disease know of the awful backache, ant) pains of all kinds, accompanied by great weakness ami nervous prostration, loss of force and ambition which invariably attend it. 1 had all these troubles intensified, ami was in such a bad condition that 1 could not get up out of my chair except by putting uiy IUUHIS on my knees, and almost rolling oui before 1 could straighten up. I tried the best doctor*, and many kinds of medicine, but all fniled to help nie, aud I experimented soloug endeavoring to get cured Uiat last spring I was in very poor shape, and in seeking for relief my attention was directed by a iriend to the remarkable cures of kidney diseases, etc., which were being accomplished by unt's Remedy. 1 was induced to try It, and began to take it, and very soon "limbered up" as it were my severe backache, and the intense pains I had suffered so long spoedily disappeared, notwithstanding 1 had been bothered with this complaint so many years.

Wheu I began to take limit's Remedy 1 was considerably run down in my general health, and suffered also from loss of appetite. Ever since I have been taking the Remedy, however, my improvement has been most marked my former complaints, aches, pains, etc., have disappeared, au.l I now feel like my former self, hale, hearty, and sound in health. I shall always keep Hunt's Remedy with me, and would most earnestly recommend all tlins" who are sulferera fron: kidney or liver diseases, or diseases of the bladder or urinary organs to u»o Hunt's Remedy, and tako no other.

Yours very trnly. HENRY H. SHELDON,
