NONA,
Some years ago I passed several weeks
t a fishing village on tho coast of Brit
tany. What a hole it was I But how
picturesque I A miserable anchorage,
for ten boats at the most, a single atony
street, which I can compare to nothing
better than a mountain torrent On top
of the hill a church, a veritable gothio
toy, which stood In tha middle of a
cemetery from which a magnificent
view of the ocean was obtained. Find
tag myself in the vein for work, I lin
gered in this out of the way corner until
the end of the month of September,
which by a rare chance in rainy Finis
tere, was that year exceptionally mild
and clear.
, But one cannot always compose versea
and write, and a walk wag my hygiene
and my distraction. My most frequent
promenade was along the beach, having
on my right the bleak and rocky cliffs
and on my left the uncovered stretches
of sand an immense desert of sand left
bare by the outgoing tide. Two or three
times I had exchanged civilities with
gome custom house officer . going his
rounds, his gun along over his shoulder.
I was so regular and peaceful prome-,
nader that the sea swallows were no
longer afraid of me and hopped in front
of me, leaving the print of their star
shaped feet in the wet sand. I walked
six or eight kilometers a day and re
turned home with my pockets filled with
those dainty shells which are found by
burying the hand deep down in the
damp pebbles.
This was my favorite excursion.
However, on the days when a strong
breeze was blowing and the tide was
very high I abandoned the seashore, and
climbing the village street X strolled
long the sandy moor, or else I settled
vnvBAlf xjritl, a. lirv-ik nn a in a, cor
ner of the cemetery, which was shelter
ed by the church tower from the west
end. ' . "
; . It was lovely spot, conducive to sad
ness and revery. The church tower
stood out against the autumn sky, over
which dark clouds were scurrying.
Crows, whose nests were in the steeple,
flew out with their hoarse cawing, and
the .shadow of their large wings glided
over the scattered tombstones, almost
hidden in the grass. -
In the evening more than at any oth
er time, the last rays of the setting sua
bathing the sea as though with blood,
the ragged branches of the skeleton of
an old apple tree silhouetted against the
crimson sky and the deep intense still
ness of the wild home of the dead flood
ed my soul with melancholy.
It was on such an evening as I have
just described that, wandering among
the tombs, many of which bore under
the sailor's name this mournful legend,
""Died at sea," I read on a new cross
, the following words, which astonished
and puzzled me: "Here reposes Nona
Le Magnet Died at sea Oct 26, 1878,
at the age of 18." V
, Died at seal A young girl! Women
hardly ever go out in the fishing boats.
How did this happen?
"Well, monsieur, " said a gruff voice
behind me suddenly, "yon are looking
at poor Nona's tomb?" "-.,
I turned around aad recognized an old
sailor, with a wooden leg, whose good
graces I had acquired by the aid of a
few glasses of brandy, which I had giv
en him in the taproom at the inn. "".
Vl" I renlifld. "But I thoncht
" that yon fishermen never permitted
women to go out with yon, I have even
been told that they bring yon misfor-
. tune." ;
And that is the truth," responded
the good man. -"Besides, Nona never
went into a boat Would yon like to
know how the poor little one died?
Well, I will tell you, ',
"First of all, I must tell you that
Pierre, her father, was a topman, like
myself, and an old comrade. At Bonr
get, when Admiral La Ronciere raised
his golden helmet on "the point of his
saber, and we flung ourselves, hatchet
in hand, on the embattled houses, we
marched elbow to elbow, Pierre and I,
and it waa he who received me in his
arms when those cursed Prussians put a
ball in my thigh. That same evening in
the ambulance at the fort Pierre held
my hand to give me courage while the
surgeon amputated my limb, and he
was there at my .bedside when the ad
miral brought me my medal. But those
' rascally Prussians got the best of us,
and we were sent home. I, with my
wooden leg, was practically helpless.
But Pierre, who was uninjured, hired
on board a fishing smack. Very soon
afterward his wife died from an inter
mittent fever, leaving him the care of
little Nona, who was going on 10 years
of aga
"Naturally while the widower was at
sea it was I, his comrade, I, the old
VnAhnlrw whn V7w t.Via lir.fla nna
She was a good and pretty child, mon
sieur! courageous and sweet tempered.
We very often went to the rooks at low
tide to gather turtles, shrimps, prawn,
and sometimes we were fortunate enough
to find a lobster. Ah, bat we were good
friends! ;
"This went on for about two years.
Nona had mad her first communion,
grown and shot np like a thistle in the
sand. But one day the Amelia, Le
Magnet's boat, was overtaken in a storm
and wrecked. The skipper did not haul
in his sail soon enough, and the boat
struck on that reef too can gee over
there just a little more to the star
board. There were four men In the crew
the skipper, two sailors and my poor
Pierre. But the sea only gave np three
of the drowned men and retained my
comrade. Nona became an orphan. ' It
goes without saying that I did my best
to replace her father. But the child,
even after the first sorrow passed away,
did not seem to oonsole herself. And do
you know why, monsieur?-. Because of
an idea all the women around here have.
They believe that a soul must remain in
pain unto the judgment day unless it re
poses in consecrated ground. We men
do. not believe in all this nonsense when
we know what happens when there is a
death on board ship. But Nona could
not be forced to believe other than the
women had taught her and continued to
burn candles at all the pardons in the
neighboring towns for the repose of her
father's soul. ,,, . - .
"However, in spite of everything,
time is a famous merchant of forgetful
ness, and Nona after a few years ap
peared to me to become somewhat rec
onciled. Besides, her grief had not pre
vented her from growing handsomer and
taking a pride in herself, and it is not
because 1 loved her like a father, but,
upon my honor, she was the freshest
and prettiest young girl in the parish.
We lived so happily together. We were
not rich, to be sure, but we lived, and
we enjoyed ourselves all the same. I
had my pension and my medal, and
then we used to go together to hunt for
lobsters in the rocks. The trade is a
paying one, and there is only one danger,
that of being overtaken by the tide.
Ah, unfortunately that was how she
met her death, poor little one I
"One day when my rheumatism con
fined me to the house she went fishing
alone. It was just such a day as today,
the sky clear, the wind high. When the
rock searchers gathered together with
full baskets, they perceived that Nona
failed to respond to their calls. There
was no possible doubt Great God, she
had been delayed and surrounded by the
rising tidel She had been drowned!
Ah, what a night I passed, monsieur!
At my age, yes, a hard hearted man
like me, I sobbed like a woman, And
the remembrance came to me of the
poor child's belief that to go to heaven
she must be interred in consecrated
ground. Therefore as soon as the tide
went down I went to the shore, and.
With the others, searched for the body.
' "And we found poor Nona," con
tinued the old sailor in a trembling
voice. "We found her on a rock covered
with seaweed, where, knowing that she
was going to die, the poor little one had
prepared herself for death. Yes, mon
sieur, she had tied her skirts below the
knees with her fichu, through modesty,
and with her old idea uppermost had
attached herself to the seaweed by her
hair, her beautiful black hair, certain
that she would thus be found and in
terred in consecrated ground. And I can
say, I, who know what bravery is, that
there is perhaps not a man brave enough
to do likewise. "
The old man was silent By the last
gleam of the twilight I saw two great
tears rolling down his weather beaten
cheeks. We descended to the village side
by side in silence. I was profoundly
touched by this simple girl's courage,
who, even in the agonies of death"; had
retained the modesty of her sex and the
piety of her race, and before me in the
distant immensity, in the solitudes of
the heavens and the sea, gleamed out
the beacon lights and the stars.
Oh, brave men of the sea! Oh, noble

Not even Dickens, I think, found
room for a butcher amid his Babylon of

a list of Dickens' characters, classified
by callings, and it reads like nothing so

Iridium.
Singularly enough, iridium, though a
taetal of such comparative rarity, is said
to be a source of no small trouble in the
operations of our mints, on account of
the difficulty experienced there in sepa
rating it from gold bullion. Practically,
as is well known, this metal is utilized
to some extent for making instruments
of delicacy which require to possess the
property of not corroding, and is obtain
ed from iridosmine, a natural alloy of
iridium, osmium, rhodium, platinum
and ruthenium, an extraordinarily white
mixture of rare metals, much of it be
ing found in washing for gold in the
beach sands of Oregon, and it resists the
action of all singlo acids. In its use for
tipping gold pens, in which it is special
ly serviceable, the grains of it, which
are flat, like gold dust, are picked out

THE GHOST LAID.
The Brewers were not at all a auporstl
Uous family. Had thoyboen they would
have moved to the city and taken a fiat
When the father fulled, instead of uolng u
that ramshackle old house at Comerk. I
was a lovely old honso, without doubt,
but '
Well, Mr, I) rower fixed tho houso up so
that it would do to live In for awhile at
any rate, until better times would come,
and they had furniture enough to make
them comfortable. Grandfather Brower
declared that he dldu't cure (or even a bod
when he had his wheel chair, and, In fact,
any on of tho family would have been
content to sleep In It
This wonderful ohalr was a potent one,
and when grandfather was not using IN or
the twins were not punning eoon ouier
around in It m t "chooohoo oar" or a
steamboat, Its four legs were allowed to
stand upon the tloor, tho wheel lo being
raised under tho seat so that they would
not be In the way. This was all that was
wonderful about grandfather's ehalr, ex
cept that It was covered with line, soft
loathor, and not one of the springs was
broken. It stood tu tho corner of the sit
ting room nearest tho bay window, when
not in use, and was quite an ornamont
As you may have Inferred from what 1
have Bald, the Browers had very little
money, and in consequence they had to
condense themselves, as It were, to lit the
part of the house which was furnished.
The sitting room was a large, square room
and throe bedrooms, and the nursery opened

with, the twlus.
- Everything went on very smoothly in
the Brower household until ononlght Em
ily commenced to hear nolaew Iwy were
queer noises that seemed to efflne from the
sitting room, and she couldn't just no
count for them in the sleepy state of hor
senses at the time, but she wasn't afraid
oh, no. So she did not mention the fact to
the family that she had been kept awake
nearly all night by strange sounds.
But the noises were really there, for To
ny and Ben announced one morning that
the house must be haunted, as they hod
heard such peculiar whluing sounds dur
ing the night It wasn't long before the
whole family became aware that something
that wasn't visible In the daylight occu
pied the sitting room at night
"If it's a person," said Ben, "I'll fix
him." And that night he tied cords in
many different positions about a foot above
the floor, hoping to trip up the Intruder.
But if ho expected to hear a loud thump
from tha falling of a heavy body which
hod been trliinod by the eorda he was dis
appointed. Ail the sound that was heard
was tho same old whlr-whtr-whlzxuig
that they all knew by heart now.
"Spirits," hinted Tony darkly the next
day when they found that the cords had
not been touched.
And Emily, who was of a very senti
mental turn of mind, wove a sad romance
about a beautiful girl who had lived then
many years ago, when the house was new.
The beautiful girl (according to Emily's
tale) had been wooed and won by a dash
ing soldier, who hod to leave bis promised
bride and take up his duty on the battle
field. The girl had promised not to mourn
In his absence and set herself to work to
make her wedding garments. So alio sat
at her wheel and wbiled away the weary
hours by spinning and wearing and think
ice of her soldier lover. . For a long time
she kept this up, singing blithely at first
and sitting at the window, where she could
catch the first glimpse of his return. Day
after day her singing grew weaker, as her
lover failed to coma, and before her wed
ding garments were finished her singing
had been hashed, her work dropped, ami
she had died. The whirring and whizzing
noise, Emily declared, was the ghost of the
beautiful moid working her wheel to hare
her wedding garments finished by the time
the dollying lover turned up.
Mr. and Mrs. Brower didn't try to solve
the problem in any such way as tills. They
said that even in the best built houses
queer noises were often heard, and they
must expect It in that old house.
Grandfather was very much interested
in the noise, and he told Emily ho thought
her solution was captivating, and he in
tended to leave the lamp burning In ths
sitting room and see for himself the ghast
ly maiden at her spinning wheel.
. That night he left a light in tho sitting
room in order that he might keep watch,
and the next morning announoed that he
had solved the mystery.
"If yon will all stay awake tonight yon
will probably see the ghost, too," said
grandfather mysteriously, and conse
quently the children each took a nap In
the afternoon and drank a cupful of strong
coffee in tha evening the latter without
their mother's knowledge, I am sorry to
say to keep them awoke.
The waiting was very tedious, and it
must have been about 13 o'clock t he Urns

"Sht There she la now 1" And In a min

"Where?" whispered Emily. "I don't
see her." -
Then grandfather pointed to the eorner
near the window where his patent ehalr
stood, and there was what do you sup
