And she took up the newspaper and
looked over the advertisements.

“Perhaps that might do, if I can swal-

Linda smiled.
" Would grandma do 9” she asked.
And then she told her little story.
Mrs. Possstt listened and considered.
Finally she agreed to waive reference.

Linda knew would secure a nice room in
her present place of residence for her
grandmother. and she accepted the posi.

the old lady wept afresh. as well she

Master Tommy was'aa unmanageable
little boy. who seemingly inherited his
mother‘s temper. A regular battle was
necusary before he could be washed or
clothed Hetcro things for more mis~
chief's sake, and was as fond of biting
as a mad dog; but Linda was cool, quiet
and good-homered. In a week or so she
got the mastery over him, and even be-
gan to teach him something. Of the
father she saw nothing. but at night she
heard him pacing the room overhead
with long and solemn strides
“It’s his conscience, my dear," said
Mrs. Posset. "He says he is sure he
wasn't all he should be to his poor
Amanda. and that he broke her heart.
He never answered her back; and I‘ve
heard him get up in the night and go
everywhere to buy strawberries when
they were not in season, because she
was set on having ’em. She was a Miss
Penfeather. and the family despises Mr.
Bellamy ; but I never saw such adora-
tion. even when she gave himablack

Tommy obeyed, and ran to her. The
martyr lifted up his head.
"Don't disturb him." he said, mourn-
fully. “I would deny nothing to her
child. I wish to do my duty by him at
least." .
"That is not the way to do it. sir.”
said Linda. “Absurd indulgence is in-

From that day Mr. Bellamy sat in the
nursery a great deal. In the evening he
took Tommy to walk. At the end of
that month he raised Linda’s wages.
As the summer wore on. and the year
of his mourning sliddd by. he bestowed

holes. He remembered each cause “of
complaint his late wife had had against
him. and desired Linda's opinion. Gon-
erally she found him not to blame.
By slow degrees he grew more cheer-
ful, and at last brought home a top for
Tommy and set it spinning.
he took Linda and Tommy to her grave
and wept there.
“A broken-hearted man is Mr. Bol-
lamy," said Mrs. Posset. “But it seems
singular to me that he didn't ask to take
the child instead of you."
The week after Mrs Penfeather and
one of Tommy’s aunts came to make a
visit. There was a good deal of whis—
peringin the housekeeper’s room; and
one evening Mrs. Peufeather entered the
nursery with a haughty air, and, seating
herself in a rockingphair. addressed
herself to Linda.
"I am the late Mrs. Bellamy's mother,
as I suppose you know, and I have come
over to see how Tommy is getting on.
I can't say I think he is doing well at
all. and I believe I can find a better
nurse-maid for him. So, as your month
is up next Monday, I'll pay you now in
place of warning, and you can pack up
at once.” ’
Linda looked at the old lady quietly,
paused a moment. said " Very well, " and
walked out of the room.
Her little trunk stood in the lumber-
room; she opened it, and began to take
down her few plain gowns.
Suddenly To nmy’s voice reached her
crying. “Where's my Linda 1’"
And she heard the graudnother say,
“ Linda is going away. She's naughty."
Theu'she’realized that she had come
to love Tommy. and tears fell fast upon
the garments she was packing.
“Crying?" said a voice behind her.
"Why. Linda, what has happened i"
“I’m very foolish, that’s all. Mr. Bel-
lamy. It is only leaving Tommy?" she
answered, without looking round.
“Leaving Tommy? what do you
mean i" cried Mr. Bellamy.
He came into the lumber room and
stood near her. looking down at her.
“Mrs. Peufenthcr has dismissed me,”
she said.
“ But I have not." said Mr. Bellamy.
He'beut towards her; he looked at
her as a master seldoms looks at a ser-
vant. Suddenly Linda understood all.
D“ It is right that I should go."sho
thought: analyst her tears fell faster.
Yes. she not only loved Tommy, but she
certainly liked Mr. Bellamy very much.
" It will break the child's heart if you
go," said Mr. Bellamy. “Mrs. Peu-
feuther oversteps her privileges. L uda,
my dear child, you can't go. I have
thought for some time that you never
must. It is my dutyto give little Tommy
smother, and l-—I’m so very fond- of
you. Won't you marry me i"
He put hisarm about her waist. He
had such a soft. kind way. though he
was weak and womauish.
“Say yes, Linda." he said.
But she answered. “Not now; not
here," and hurried her clothes into her
trunk. ‘
He stood by dejectedly.
“Think it over, Linda," he pleaded.
And she promised.
She talked it over with her grand-
mother that night. '
Linda had had dreams of gallant
knights and young princes. like other
girls; and Bellamy was neither. But
she felt as though he needed to be taken
care of; and there was Tommy. And it
wuss good match. as her grandmother
said. Andsoitcan‘mtopass that there
was awedding one day. and that after-
ward Linda and her grandmother went
home to the old house. where Tommy
waited for their coming. .
Mrs. Possett gave warning. She could
not keep house for a former nurse-maid,
Ashe declared But no housekeeper was
needed, and what Grandma Peufeath'er
said mattered little to young Mrs. Bei-
lsmy. .
She is very happy, and so is the old
grandmother, whom Tommy adores ;
while Mr. Bellamy admits to himself,
that though his saluted first wife was
adorable. his second \one is simply pen
faction, and has the advantage of a sweet
temper and no nerves.
“I had no idea my nurse-maid's place
would be so permaueu ." Linda often

THE A LOB.
Perhaps the most remarkable instance of
rapid vegetable growth that has been heard
of since the famous beau-vine of Jack the
Giant-Killer is one which has been related
to us by Professor Stowe, of an aloe, or
century-plant, now growing on the grounds
of one 1of\ his neighbors, at Mandarin,
Florida. This aloe, during a period of sev-
eral weeks from the last week of April to
the latter part of May, actually increased in
height at the rate of twelve inches a day—
cr half an inch an hour, night and day—
until it attained a height of forty-two feet.
Having reached that height, the tree (for it
is nothing else than a tree) leaned over on a
neighborly orange tree to take a test.
When Professor Stow left Mandarin, the
last week of May, the flower stems had
come out, but up to the end of June it had
not yet blossomed. The American aloe,
according to the English Cyclopedia, has a
period of from ten to seventy years, ac-
cording to climate. “When fully mature
it produces a gigantic flower stem, forty
feet in height, and perishes." In Florida
one sees many of these plants, in various
atagesofgrcwth; but we think theroare
few cases in which the growth is so rapid as

when the Toltec Empire was at the
height of its splendor, Tepancnltzin
being upon the throne, a relative of the
King. Papcntzin by name. was led,
through a happy accident, to observe
the hidden virtuesof the maguev. The
gnawing of a rat in the pulpy body cf
the plant revealed the secret which na-
ture had hitherto guarded so carefully
and brought to the light that milky
beverage which was destined to be the
source of health and pleasure to countless
thousands. Papanizin seems to have
had some idea of the importance of his
discovery, for be resolved to take the
precious liquid up to court, deeming
that it would be an acceptable present to
the King. His lovely daughter Xochitl
accompanied him. and it was from her
fair hands that Tcpaucaltzic received
the jarro of pulque. The monarch was
so struck with the beauty of themaid;
en, which had earned for her the name
of “ Flower, " that he fell desperately in
love with her, and stealing her away
from Papantzin, he kept her a willing
prisoner in a charming retreat near the
City of Tula. Such was the influence
exerted by this T ltec Rosamond over
the heart of her royal admirer that he
afterwards acknowledged her as his
Queen, and placed their son, Mecc-

A JAPANESE HOUSE.
A New York dealer in Japanese goods
has fitted into the back of his storea
real Japanese house in miniature. Only
two rooms. however, are represented,
corresponding to our reception room
and parlor; but these are complete and
exact in detail. The house was brought
to America from Japan in sections, and
was put together by a Japanese artisan,
after their custom, without nails, glue
forming the necessary substitute. The
material for the framework is of Japa-
nese cedar bamboo; a strong, trans-
parent paper form the little square panes
for the'wiudows, glass being only used
by the lower classes. The mouldings of '
the rooms are of a very artistic and
beautiful pattern, and the ceilings are
bamboo, braided in different designs
and colored in different shades of brown.
The floors are especially curious, being
made very elastic, a sort of split bamboo
or straw forming a padding underneath
the squares of matting, which are finish-
ed separately with a neat binding. The
rooms in a Japanese house are desig-
nated by the number of pieces of mat-
ing required for each. as the seven, six
or five matted room. The reception
room is furnished with a. sideboard with
a rounded front, placed in one corner,
on which are richly ornamented tea
caddies. a huge teapot and all the ac-
cessories of a hospitable cup of tea,
which they offer to all callers; and a
very elaborate lacquer and bronze table
near by holds a. decorative jardiuicre.
‘A little sliding door of paper. gayiy
painted with Japanese flowers; separates
this room from the inner one. or parlor.
This is the “five-matted room," and has

ABOUA‘ THE HAIR.

To have beautiful hair and keep it in
health requires as much care as the
teeth. nails or face. So many twist the
hair up in some becoming fashion the
year round, and wonder that it gets
streaked. thin in spots, and seems harsh
and dry. The hair should be loosened
every night before retiring, combed free
from all tangles with a bone comb (rubé
ber combs have done much to split and
break the hair—nearly all have too much
electricity to use rubber); then use a
stiff brush for a long time, brushing
from the top to the very ends.
It is well for the lady who has a maid,
for it is impossible to properly brush
. one's hair if very long. Then braid and
for the night.
The scalp should be kept clean and
healthy; wash occasionally, and have it'
thoroughly shampoood two or three
times a year as well.
To wash, braid the hair loosely in
several braids, take raw egg and rub

water with a little ammonia incorporated
in it. wring {the braids in o’coar'se' towel,

Bmcx ISLAND.
Block Island is the quaintest ocean re-
sort on the American coast. It is a min-
iature world in which the habits and
customs are those of 150 years ago. Near-
ly fifteen miles ofi‘ the Rhode Island
shore, almost directly south of stormy
Point J udith. it appears from the main-
land a dark, purple cloud on the south-
ern horizon. As soon as you reach its
shore you are out of the world. The
bustle of work day life are

m. , id-blown trooloss hillook; the
note 0 'cket is rcrely heard, and the
only interruption of the quiet is the reg-
ulnr swash of the surf on the distant
rocks. The drowsy landscape and un-
rufied flow of life invite the visitor to
repose and reverie. Block Island is
called the "lazy man's paradise.” It is
a healthful place. The income of a real-
dent physician in 1881. from medical at-
.frrv'4*""" ~ 2
. tendance on the 1,400 in habitants, was
$2.25. Before quitting the island at the
end of the year, he told an islander that
he had lost his own health in trying to
work up a practice. The Block Island
fields are of miniature dimensions, about '
an acre to a lot. There is hardly land
enough to go around, each resident bo-
iug a farmer as well as a fisherman, and '
the island is only about seven and a half
miles long by two and a half miles broad.
Every knoll is capped with a small, old-_
fashioned. oueostory farmhouse, whose
shinglcd walls are thickly coated with
whitewash, the only wash that will with
stand the, intensely vaporous salty air
which melts the salt in the glass collar
on the family table into a thick lumpy
mass. Some of the dwellings are 150
years old, and the "old wind-mill " was
built of lumber from trees that grew on
the island early in the last century.
There is not a tree on Block Island ex-
cept a few pinched and starvcliug pop-
lars that were set out around a few of
the dwellings as an experiment. Trees
do not get a foothold on the bleak farms.
The front door of almost every house
opens into an orderly kitchen garden, a
pebbly walk leading through it to a
white paling that opens into the street.
All the families are members of the Bap.
tist church. There is not an acknowl-
edged sinner on the island, the popula-

ter revival several years ago. Every
voter of native birth is a Democrat. The

Garnets have not heretofore hold very

of those who own exceptionally fine

half-hidden color is especially becoming.
But they have certainly of late acquired
a new interest. Their possibilities are
beginning to be better understood, and
their pecuniary value has been greatly
enhanced simply by new and artistic

nets robbed them of half their beauty.
