Rogers w as made tem porary chairman and was loudly applauded j when he declared that all differences, if there were any, would be settled within j party lines. A resolution was offered and referred that the republican party of Pennsylvania de mand the enforcement ot the railroad anti discrimination. A resolution to change the rules, doing away with the senatorial dele gates in the future and making one repre sentative for each 2000 votes and one for every additional thousand, to be estimated on the last presidential vote, wras referred to I the committee on rules. The convention then proceeded to name members of the state committee. The committee on permanent organization reported in favor of Jaine S. Briery of Lehigh i for chairman and a vice president from each senatorial district as well as four secretaries. The report was adopted. The resolution committee not being ready to report the committee proceeded to name the candidates for state treasurer. Col. M. S. Quay of Beaver, J. H. Longnecker of Belford, H. C. Greenwalt of Franklin, J. A. McDevitt of Lancaster and T. H. Wighton of Blair were placed in nomination. The first ballot resulted as follows Quay, 19t>4 Longnecker. 27$ McDevitt, 15 Greenwalt, 7 Wighton, 5 The nomination was made unanimous. A platform was reported and adopted. It reaffirms faith in the cardinal principals of the party, advocate the repeal ot the internal revenue taxes except on spirituous and malt liquors, declares federal revenu« s should be raised by additional taxes on imports, insists on protection for all home industries ami prompt revival of our commercial marine I and promotion ot foreign commerce by 1 proper discount on duties imposed on goods in American bottoms and proper bounties to goods imported in American bottoms. li declares that the live issues of the present campaign are protection to American imlus try, not only through adequate taritl laws but such as will effectually stop importation of foreign contract labor, the establishment ot i a irue system civil service, one which will give competent officers and yet not bind either political thoughts or actions of Amer- lean citizens, one which will give fixed tenure of office except for adequate public j c tuse necessary for enforcement ot the richt of j every voter within our national boundaries to freely cast his ballot and have the same fairly counted at elections; preservation of a sound financial system; maintenance of a currency worth 100 cents on a dollar, at all limes redeemable in coin; protection of tin national treasury from unwarranted ami cs- pecially from disloyal claims; the mainten ance ot the credit of our government as es tablished by republican administrations. We invite the public attention to the acts 1 of the present democratic national adminis tration, to the unjust war upon ‘offensive partisans,” to its hypocritical avoidance of pledges touching civil service, to its star chamber proceedings again-t republicans, for which removals no public reason can he giv en and to its constantly disloyal preference tor rebel elements ot the democratic parly at the South and the semi-rebel elements of the same party at the North. After expressions of sympathy for Gen. Grant, the committee adjourned sine die. TEXAS C HOPS

The Most Mount if ill Ever Known. Galveston, Texas, July 8th. The News to-day publishes complete crop reports from seventy counties in Texas. The districts embraced comprises almost the n tire cotton and grain belts of Texas Editor- I ially summarizing its reports the News will say “An analysis shows that the yield of small j grain has never before been surpassed in Texas, while the corn crop also bids fair to be the largest ever grown in the state. It would he unwise to predict beyond what the outcome of the crop is likelv to be, a* the plant at this time is considerably later than in average seasons and their are coniingen- ces to be encountered before the cotton cron is made. The reports show an increased acreage amounting on an average to about* 17 per cent, over last year with prospects Mat tering for a splendid yield. “The rains of the past ten days have now been general over the cotton belt, and there is moisture enough in the ground to carry the cotton crop well forward If not checked by sudden and continuous drouth, which is not anticipated, the cotton crop of the state bids fair to he the greatest ever made. This j is saying as much as is necessary, while the quantity is qualified by the conditions quite possible to arise. Brit My summed up. how ever, the crops prospects in Texas at this time has rarely been excelled, the acreage 1 being larger than ever before known, and labor in all departments of agricultural in dustry abundant and painstaking. The out look is most assuring, the cotton yield of the state for the coming year being variously t s tiinated upon the present basis of the crop prospects at 1.5o0,O00 to 1,800,000 hales."

The president this afternoon appointed the following cadets at large to West Point Don Darios Buell, Nadra Kvkes, F. D Hatch, Thomas Newton. S. H. Buggies and K. M. Cleary.

Harrison, assayer in charge of the United States mint at Helena, Mont., has made a report to secretary of the treasury in which he exonerates Harrison. The Star says the President is preparing to depart from Washington for the summer vacation. His plans have been arranged and j it is expected he will be able to get away i w ithin a day or two. He will go to New York and will betake huuself to the woods for a few weeks to get away from worry and bother of office-seekers ami politicians. He will probably leave as soon as the appointed time arrives without making any previous announcement. The president wants a period of perfect rest ami does nof propose to be followed into his retreat. Office seekers will wake up some morning and find the White House d» aerted. O.X THE MS \H rA I'll.

So long as Diaz retains his hold upon the army it is pretty sure that ho will run the government and crush oppo sition He is only showing once more the natural result ot the incapacity of the peo ple i>f Mexico tor self-government, which inevitably leads to what is practically a military dictatorship. The questions which are being raised as to the right of the Indians to make eon faeta with parties other than the United States relative to their lands are destined to become important ones, and the decis ion of the Interior Department in the premises Is tieing awaited with a good deal of interest. It would seem, from a reading of the statutes and the treaties relative to the matter, that the Indian tribes in the Indian Territory can neither sell nor lease their lands that nobody can interfere with the Indians, or occupy or enclose their lands that the Indians them selves cannot authorize any one to do so. Yet the tact is that the larger portion of the lands of Indian Territory sat apart for exclusive Indian occupation are in the possession of whites, under leases from Indians. It. as is claimed, and as it seems justly claimed, the Indians had no right to lease, then the duty ot the government is clear, and the Indians should be pro tected from the results of their own unau thorized acts. Nature appears to Ih> developing too rapidly in at least one direction. The size of hailstones is increasing, if we may trust current reports, at a rate which threatens to make necessary not only a revolution in architecture but in human headgear. In a recent Ohio storm, stones six inches in diameter crashed through shingle roofs as if they had been paper. Clearly they would have killed any man or woman. In the tropics, where the people go without head-covering, the skull has boon grad ually and considerately thickened so as to protect the brain from being cooked. A similar thickening of the cranium will be required in the Wes it the present form of hailstones is to be tnamtaiued. It will also be necessary to build roofs of stone, a foot thick or so. and every three will have to be guarded with an iron umbrella to preserve the fruit from destruction. These changes may be good for trade in j some respects, hut it is probably too much to expect that the new style of six-inch hailstones will ever become really popular. I The Man at Cleveland’s Elbow. Mr. Bayard is the premier, nominally, of the administration. But be hasn’t a tithe of Lamont’s influence. Xor has any man in the cabinet. The private secretary is virtually a member of the cabinet—and more; if he is not at the head of the cabinet he is ahead ot it in point of opportunity. He is with the President constantly outside of office hours riding, walking, smoking and chatting. The two are as intimate as brothers, and more so than most brothers. It is a little surprising j to democrats of all grades, and especially to members of the cabinet. Senators and members wbo want the Pres ident to make an appointment for them take good care not to offend the private secretary. In ordinary life they might not remember to recognize him aft^r the first introduction. But this isn’t sate fra political leader now. A step or two from L*count's desk is a door opening into the cabinet’s chamber, and s* connecting with the library, the Presidents business office. Senator* and members long ago caught on to the trick of going in to see Lament and stepping in to have a word with J‘r 'Hen thu* »■reaping tfi- door-keeper, «ho takes the visitor’s card and keeps it tor the scrutiny of the new«paper men. The manner of the private secretary i* modest and quiet He talks le*9 than the President to hi* callers, and listens attentively to all that is -Hid to him. Between the two, the Presi dent and the secretary, the M*cal» are likely to be found out if their stories do not hang together. It was discovered long ago by the politicians that the two men talked these matters over. With the exception of Whitney and Man ning there isn’t a member of the cabinet 4 hose recommendations are not revised by Laniont. The fact is a curious one, and worth notice and study. Lamont’s rise in opportunity s i« no more nor le*s phenomenal than Mr. Cleveland’* advance from Ins Buf falo law office to the White House.

View, and Reeammendadon. of the City Board of Health. That the .abject of drainage it of vital importance in considering the matter of pub lic health. i« go universally recognized as to admit of no debate. That improper facilities or the entire absence of any facilities for drainage is the most fruitful source of all typhoid and pulmonary diseases, goes with out saying The soil absorbs moisture from the air and secretes the rainfall, forming what is term-d i ground-water. Where there are p-oper fa cilities, this ground water moves slowly toward the sea by the nearest and most nat ural watercourses. Where these courses are obstructed the water is held in su-pen-e, be coming stagnant and foul, and dealing out disease and d* a*h in prof isi ,n. It is deleterious in two great direction* irst, it is in itself the most direct agent in the production of consumption and other throat and lung diseases arid it gives rise to conditions the most favorable to the recep tion and maintainance of typhoid diseases, cholera, diphtheria, scarlet fever and the lik-. Or. Bowditch. a very eminent authority, as serts that dampness in the soil i« the primary cause of consumption in N* w England. The best German authorities a««ert that typhoid fe\ers are due largely to the same cause; so that water in the *oil may be assumed to be in itself one of the most fruitful causes of those diseases most to be dr a led, and one ot the most notorious features that invite epi demic and contagion* diseases Another feature, equal in its importance and in its darger is the decay of vegetable at d animal matter at or near the surf «ce of the soil. As stagnant ground water holds such matt r in suspense and conrtihutes rn >re 1 than anvthing else to its decay and pollution, especially if the level of th wat r is subject t'» variation, the two subjects are very closely related and may be Considered together under the head of drainage. Tne less the p -rositv of the soil,the great* r the danger and in clayey lands where the I surface water remains standing, subject to varia ions with the varying rainfall and evap- j oration, ordinary diseases rnay he assumed to be frequent, and epidemic diseases will find the readiest foothold. This danger is in creased many fold by emptying onto such soil, slops, swill, sink-drainage, and other offal. Inuestigation* in th** city of New York in 1 1*72 show conclusively that in an epidemic ot diphtheria the disease was far noire preva lent on the sites of old water-courses amt basin* whose drainage had been stopped bv filling. Statistics in the “Cyclopedia of the *’r»etn e ot Medicine” show that in all towns and eilies win re a good system of drainage has been established, the death rate has been i reduced fr- m o to 20 percent an«l statistics fr -in towns m this country ami in Kngland show that in many cases the number of deaths from consumption and epidemic diseases has been reduced in a much larger proportion. Most certainly the interest of common hu j niamtv as well as the vital politic and com mercial interest of tin* community and the instinct of self preservation, demand an at tention to this matt* r. The prevalence of cholera in other coun I tries ami tin* appearance of plagues in certain localises in this country, notably in the j 1 stricken town of Plymouth, where almost a third of the inhabitants have been prostrated by a disease extremely fit a 1 in its nature and traceable directly to detective drainage, have awakened the people to an interest in this matter, and it seems a titling time to take some decided action. rite remedies are found in providing a ready means of drainage, using caution in the matter *>f drinking only pure and uncontam mated w if* r. and extreme care in the matt r of throwing -will, si pi and offal promiscu ously at cni'l I m itters much should be done b.»th by tti if and by individuals. It is a sad "lit an m li-p-.fable fact that this city, situited as well for drainage as any in the country, is one of the poorest drained; *lu»* to the small interest awakened on the subject and to the lack of system in the small amount of work done in this direction. Were i not for the fart that nature has provi fed a hb- ral natural drain »g.* in th fr* quent gullies ami watercourses, it i* probable that thecitv would have 1 mg ago become a hotbed of diseas* s A* these natural c mrses become checked ami filled, and as the populous portions of the city extend over places that were once hogs atid swamps and as infectious diseases ap proach. tin* interest must concentrate on the suhp et of drainage. A* illustrations, a few of the most palpable instane- max he cited: In the vicin ry of Melville, ('hapel, and ^exvall streets there was once a pond. This has been till* 1 up and built upon without any suifahle j drainage being provided, an l i* a **e-ult the soil is continually wet wi»h -t gnini and foul, water, the drainage ami *d! *1 of places a little higher art* poured onto the soil, small and short sewers empty their foul poisonous mat ter on the surface, ami fevers and other dis eases are proverbially prevalent. On Win throp street near the old ('ushnoc House and the stables was another frog pond. Small ami imperfect drains were once built, but many of them have become useless and cel lars are wet, water frequently stands to quite a depth under the stables, the drainage of several houses has no outlet, that of a num ber of others is poured out on the surface and goes trickling down the hill bv the road side. polluting the air of the whole neighbor hood Hack of the Old Fort is a basin in which the natural slope of the land has for many years concentrated the sewage and offal **t quite a large section of territory. Stag nant water, saturated with the very essence of tilth, stands there during a large portion of the warm weather, and no better feeding place for disease could he found On Hridge street between ('hestnut and Spring is a short section of a sew. r lying open to the sun, though both ends f it are well covered. At the corner ot Oak and Flagg streets is the mouth of a small sewer which might with a few hours lab r and at a trifling expense be sunk and trapped. complete system of drainage should be at once inaugurated and pushed as rapidly as ran be done consistently A rigid code of laws enacted compelling ahuttors to connect their drains with sewers, and other sanitary measures adopted. Sewers should be ar rai ,p.*d for the removal of offal and the escape of ground and surface water.The mouths oi all sewers should he carefully trapped to prevent the escape of sewer gas, and in times ot con tinued drouth, all sewers thoroughly washed out bv means of the fire engines or other wise, at least once a week. Various circumstances combine to render the present a fitting time to move in the mat ter of building sewers. The county commis sioners. and nearly or quite every abuttor on the Winthrop street section are willing ami anxious to contribute liberally to the con struction of a sewer from the vicinity of the Cushnoc House to the railroad crossing, j where a sewer already exists, running to the river. The ahuttors are equally ready to aid in the construction of a sewer down the nat ural course from the Melville street basin. Perhaps a system of assessments for better ments might he established, for certainly any building lot on the course of such a sewer would be worth many hundreds of dollars more tor its construction, and it would afford greatly increased comfort and safety to the occupants, and thus incidentally the whole community. In the matter of drinking water it should be carefully seen to that all wells or cisterns are thoroughly cleansed and that no c»-ss pool or privy vault is so situated that its fil tration* can possibly reach the drinking wat-1 or. Filth of this nature will permeate and pollute the earth for a long distance if the j natural slope of the land takes it in the right direction. The public reservoirs should j be kept scrupulously free from filth and surface water, and if water is pumped j from the river, it should be taken from a point above the city and above the mouth of Bond Brook, into which, near its mouth, empty directly a very great num ber of privies, sink drains and other outlets of filth and nastiness We very strongly urge upon the city gov ernment, the n*ce§*itv of immediate action in the matter of building sewers and the ap pointment of a committee to ascertain the probable co«t and the available contributions or betterments. and we specially urge that whatever work is done in this direction, be dune with a view to a system to be perfected at some future time. Respectfully submitted, Wm B. Lapham. Secretary. A daatakiilt deed. Three Tow- BHong'nc to J O. Pillsbury of P«im>ni. fatally Pouunrd. Mr. J. C Pillsbury and wife, who were in Augu-ta last week, vi-iting their daughter, Mr- W H Dunton, returned to their home in Pa'myra i Sunday last to find that a most atrocious deed had been c»mmitted during their absence. Two Jersey cow- lav in the barn Hour dead, and another in the barnvard dving. Saturday night two of the cows came up from the pasture apparently very sick, and did not give the u-ual quantity of milk. Mr. C. F. Longley, a neighbor, being called in, thought they would be better in the morning; but in the morning one of them was deal and the other dying. Mr. Longley immediately w*-nt to Pittsfield and procured a veterinary surgeon, who, up >n examination, pronounced ihem poi- >ne up on which parties started for the pi'tu-e to ascertain the cause. Mr. P. had two more fine butter cows, and two valu able colts besides some s'.\ or eight other i head *»f steers and heifers in the pasture. A large quantity of rotten a: pies and potatoes w as f jund, covered with Paris green, enough to kill all the stock in the neighborhood. This had been thrown down in the lane, w here the stock would come to it in passing from the pasture to the barn. The two colts were found very near the poison, but apparently all right, although it is thought one of the colts had eaten a little of it. One of the cows was found near the fence sick, and this cow died between twelve and one o’clock Sunday night, alter Mr. P.’s arrivai, making the third but ter cow that had died from the effects of the poison. This is a very hard blow to Mr. P., as he is a man who has very nice stock, and thinks a great deal of it. His colts he con siders very valuable, and had he lost them the blow would have been almost unbearable. A person, who could, for any motive what ever, stoop to so mean and contemptible an action as to poison valuable stock or any dumb creature, must be a fiend incarnate. It is hoped tliH guilty party will be apprehended and be brought to speedy justice, for it is not safe to hr ve such a party at large for a day. It will be remembered that Mr. Longley, in the same neighborhood, lost his house, farm buildings and farm tools about two years ago, and he and his family barely escaped with their lives. It was evident the buildings were set on fire. I u«tnl Int ion.

Haying If you have any haying to do in dog days, watch the weather at night, and it it looks fair, never stop for fog the next morning. Rake the hay early in the sfter noon. If it is bunched up with the heat ot the sun, it will be drier the next morn ing than if had laid till night. When handled in a dry air it dries very fast; and when lhe air is damp the hay partakes of the moisture. Open the bunches in the ruorni; g as soon as the dew is off. so that a large surface will be exposed to the ‘■un in this wav it may be sufficiently dried, wittmu' sc borching, so as to break while handling, as it does when handled over m the hot part ot the day. If hay has to stand out through a spell e as light as possible, and it will dry off faster, and still be ready fur a rain. Be sure that the lir-t hay you put in i« dry [enough, or it may heal and injure the whole mow. It had better get wet in the field than mould in the barn. Clover hay will keep in the barn when it is dry enough so the bark on the stalks cannot be slipped off with the thumb nail. About salting hay there is a great difference of opinion. If the hay isdry enough to keep without, salt will not hurt it, but packing damp hay in salt, is a questionable policy. Tribune and Farmer. Building up a Haystack. The great point to be secured in stack ing up hay is. to keep the centre the high est. If this is done water cannot pene trate into the stack, but will find its way to the outside under the most unfavorable circumstances It, on the other hand, the centre is hollow, the water must drain into the centre, and so ruin the stack. An ex cellent way to build a stack is to set a tall sapling firmly in the ground, with a foun dation of rails around it; then begin at the centre, anti place the hay about the pole, gradually spreading, until the edge ot the base is reached. Continue build mg up the stack, the. highest in the ceutre around the pole, the builder standing in the centre so as to tread the hay firmly there. As the stack settles, the outside sinks more than the centre, and helps to make the stack better The top of the stack is finished by fastening a covering ot hay to the pole, with hay bands wound firmly around it. A stack so made will not leak, and even clover hay may be safely stacked in this manner, because the water must make its way to tin* outside by the force of gravity, and escape there by dropping to the ground dear ot the stack. Fugitive Wealth. There lias never been, as far as we know, a more remarkable instance ot a tangible ami yet a fugitive wealth than of the fortune that evaded the grasp ot the relative of a friend of the w riter. He w as, many years ago, at school at Harrow, and returning along the i road by the bathing place—to Harrovians “duckcr”—politely went to the assistance of a st nt f.irnii r on horseback in difficulties with a gate lock He opened the gate and held it tin- k for the rider to pas-. “Thank you, inv boy,” said the farmer, one of the wealthy Middlesex graziers who own large tracts nf the Harrow and I’inner rich meadow lands. “\V hat may your name hi?” “My i name’s Green,” returned the hoy, with an I ill-timed hurst of the imagination. “And 1 what is your father?” “Oh, my father’s a cheesemonger,” said the smart scholar, chuckling internally at his ready wit, “and lie liv» s in London in the Theobald’s road, rather a small shop, with two steps down out i»t the strict.” ‘.I'm very much ohlidged to vou," replied the farmer, by no means—as it afterward appeared—a man of straw. “You’re a capital young chap. I shan’t forget you.” •Don’t was the scholar's final thurst. It* member Green, and a cheesemonger in I In i bald’s mad And up tin* hill he went, alnn st as much pleased with himself as if he had been asked to play against Kton at Lord’s. What his feelings may have been when, 10 wars later, a young gentleman of the name of Green was advertised for, whose father kept a cheesemonger’s shop in the Theobald's road, and who. in return for politely opening a gate at Harrow in the year 18J5-, was left a large legacy by the wealthy farmer, recently deceased—what his feelings were then none of his relatives cared to inquire too closely; hut it was i hserved by all that from that hour do* unhappy young man never lost an oppor tunity of insisting on the incalculable bless ings of the most rigid adherence to truth; of the disasters invariably incident to even a momentary deviation from which virtue he hims. If was a m-st marked and melancholy example. For neither was his name Green or anything approaching it. nor had ins father.a quiet country gentleman, ever, even in the n muted fashion, been interested in cheese; indeed, as his son ha- been heard pathetically to remark, in the smallest ammints it invari ably disagreed with him The Cornhill Magazine. Iii Charity’s Name. A great scandal has been created among the best people of Philadelphia by a prank played by two society young men. the other dav, says a New York Herald special. One of the most famous girls’ seminaries of the city, heated in the rural suburbs to the northward, was visited by two young sister* of charity, who solicited alms for the sick and siiff- ring. The supposed sisters reached the seminary in a close carriage and were hospitable received by the principal of the school. The visitors were shown through the dominie* and about the entire building. They affected unusual interest in the pupils, and finaliy a«ked ami obtained permission to open a subscription in swe* t haritv’s name. The young women subscribed liber dlv, and some of them even insisted on a blessing and a holy kiss. They r»ceived both, adminis tered with a fervor that gr-. atly impressed the recipients. The supposed sisters ex pressed themselves as highly pleased, and. after a pathetic farew• 11. took their departure across the lawn to the outer gate, wh-re, uriouslv enough, they had left their carriage. The curiosity of several of the young women to see more of the good nuns caused them to approach the gate-way by another and shorter route. There thev saw what horrified them, for in getting into the carriage the boots and pantaloons of two men were exposed under the black draperies of the jdsters. They re turned in hot haste to the school tnd the secret was the property of everv girl in the institution. Every effort was made, however, to keep the matter quiet, and the story has reached publicly through the clubs. Two prominent societies tor dispensing charity received 850 each in bank notes by express. This sum is believed to have been greatly in excess of the amount obtained. The affair is alleged to have been the result of a bet in one of the most exclusive clubs of the city made between a partv of gildea youths. It is estimated that 81000 a side was wagered that the seminary could not be visited and thoroughly inspected in any way by men. Fits.—All fits stopped free by Dr. Kline’s Great Nerve Restorer.

AFTER MAST DATS. Continued from yesterday.) “Kingsley tells me that Dr. Canfield thinks it would be a good thing for him to take charge of a church somewhere.” Miss Gravle says by and by. “He could goon with his studies, you know, and the discipline would be good for him. I shall hate to have him go away, but it may be for the best.” “Very likely," answers Miss Crawford, carelessly.as if the matter holds but slight interest for her. That night a telegram comes to Miss Gravle from her sister in Trenton. She is sick. Will Mary come to her for a few days In the morning Miss Gravle goes away. That afternoon King-ley Dunham calls. Miss Crawfi rd knows that she cannot help seeing him.for the servants would suspect her ot untrutht'ulness it she sent down an excuse pleading headache or any other illness. So she puts on her armor ot self defense and takes her shield of pride and goes down to meet him. "And Mary has gone he says. It has alwavs been “Mary” and “Kingsley” be tweeen them. “1 am sorry. I am obliged to go awav this afternoon, and I shall not come back until alter she has gone to Europe. I wanted to a«k her a question. But it seems that I am too late. 1 shall have to write it and leave for you to give to her. It is about something that will affect my whole l.fe.” He says this looking at Miss Crawford with a strange excitement in his face. She fancies that she knows what his excitement is about. His glance makes her tremble with its power. She goes to the window and drops the curtain to shut out the sun light that floods the room. Her face is left in the shadow, and she feels safer. “If I only understood you better,” he savs, coming to her side. “But I hardly feel if I understand you at all. I wonder if all women can be as perplexing to a man as you are to me “Perhaps, if they try to be.” she an swers. "We are said to be riddles, you know,” with a little laugh that sounds forced and empty of merriment. “If I only knew,” he says, and then pauses with his eyes upon her lace. “What does he mean?” She feels a strange mesmerism steal over her beneath his glance. Is he playing with her heart He. Kingsley Dunham, who is to stand before men as one of Hod’s teachers? “You can write your letter to ntv cous in and leave it on tlie table. I will give it to her,” she savs, turning to the door. “I must beg to be excused, there is so much to do.” Then she bows and leaves him. The truth is, she does not dare to trust herself with him longer. II she docs her secret is not safe. Sin- linds the letter there when she goes down. “I know what the question is that he has asked her.” she says, as she takes up the missive. “He has asked her to be his wife. Her answer to the question is what will affect his whole life,” and then she laughs discordantly. She teels like drop ping her head on the table and crying, for tlie pain at her heart is sharp and bitter. She feels a kind of fierce, hard anger against Kingsley Dunham, against her cousin Mary, against all the world. She takes up the letter again, and looks at it with eyes and face full of rebellion at destiny. “I am to be to her the bearer of a mes sage of love from him,” she cries. “I. who love him as she never will. Fate is lull of bitter irony when it makes me such a messenger. I—I will not do it! with sudden, tierce determination. She crum ples tlie letter in her hand and looks about her. She sees the old clock in the hall. She goes to it. opens it, and drops the letter into its mysterious depths. “Stay there forever,” she says, and turns with a guilty start to the postman at the door: he has brought her a letter from tier mother. “The schools will open two weeks earlier than usual,” she reads. “You must come home at once or you will lose your place as teacher.” Two days later she goes back to the New England village in which her work is waiting lor her. And that day Kings ley Dunham goes to a little church in the West to begin his work. “So our paths ritn apart,” she says as the train whirls her away from the citv where she has passed a summer full of sad and sweet experience; for love, even it it gives all and receives nothing, is always sweet; “and perhaps it is better so.” Three years have gone Alice Crawford is again a visitor at her cousin's home. Mary is married, but not to Kingsley Dunham. Why she iliil not marry him Alice never asks. The remembrance of what she had done and of what the old clock knows tills her with guilty shame She never goes through the hall without feeling a hot flush come into her face as she hears the clock tolling out the hours. It seems to be accusing her. She isafraid of it. She is glad to know that Mary was not robbed ot happiness by her act. That she was sure of, for if ever a woman was hap py in a husband’s love that woman is Mary. If she had found her cousin griev ing for what tier life had lost she could never forgive herself for what she had done She begins to think she cannot, as it is. She hates herself for having given way to temptation. She has lost self respect. More than once she resoWes to confess everything to her cous in. But the humiliation of such a con fession she feels to be more than she can bear when she comes to attempt it. She is alone in the world now. Her mother is dead. Henceforth ihcre is none I to toil for hut herself. She misses the in centive that urged her on to steady, hard work. The outlook is not a bright one for a woman who feels the need of something to live and work for. “You cannot guess what I heard to-day,” Mary said one evening as she and Alice i sit in the nursery together, where the pride of the family is having a hard time lot it trying not to go to sleep. “Kingsley Dunham is coming hereto fill Dr. Can field's place through the latter’s vacation they sav." A sudden light comes into Alice Craw ford's eyes. And with it a warmth kin dles for a moment in her heart, then leaves it colder than before. But it is enough to j tell her that she has not conquered her heart, and that she never will. “I shall be so glad to see him." Marv I goes on. “He was always like a brother to me.” They are sitting together in the pew at j church the next Sabbath evening, when they become aware of the fact that Kings j ley Dunham has come. “O! Alice,” whispers Marv. "there be is coming in with Dr. Canfield. How he has changed What a splendid looking man he is! I knew Le would be. I wish I could go right up to the minister’s desk and speak to him and shake hands with A TOILET LUXURY. Ayer's Hair Vigor is the most cleanly of all preparations for toilet use.
