A SUMMER SlIOWEK.
"Sojouwlll not lorijlve mCoayf
George Wharton Raked, as he atood In
the garden path below, looking tip at
her a the learned out of. the old li
brary window ot Aahtey Manor
house.
"No, I will not,"
"Aud we are to part (or evci f"
"I hare told you so."
The unforgiving maiden, whose soft,
elear voice was lu Itaelf aoontradlntlon
ot the ver word It gave ulterauoe to,
was looking away with her tearful
bluaeyos to the distant hills which
were already enveloed in the eveulng
mists, and trying not to look where
her lover stood anxiously waltlug and
watohlug tor alga ot forgiveness.
The window almost reached the
ground and was shrouded In blossom
ing roses. Suddeuly Cosy turned and
broke oft a large spray, and directed
nil her attention to the task ot smooth"
tng out every leaf and peering mys
Urlously under every petal, a warm
flush gathering on her face.
"Darling, forgive met I'll never
vex you again I awear III And,
Cosy, i was so awfully cut up too."
The spray was thrown down at bis
feet, the blue eyes regarded hliu with
a scornful, flashing anger In their
troubled dupthe, aud the rosa-bloom
deepeued luto passionate crimson.
"You mean you sat for an hour aud
a half smoking, for Daisy saw you
anioklng those hateful cigars, while I
was waltlug tor you, and wondering
why you did not come, and fruiting
myself to death about you. And you
were enjoying yourself all the time,
and never thinking or caring Vhat
bad beeome of me; and you call that
being awfully cut up. i ''
'Com- ," with one hand litld up
on the ledge ot the window.
"Don't call me that name aaitt, sir.
I aru no longer "Cosy to you. Our
engagement Is at an end, and the
sooner that la known the better."
She drew herself away from the
caressing hand that aougiit to touch
ber, and stood passive and silent by
the ourtaln.
George Wharton stepped back from
the window and threw away the end
of a cigar ha had held concealed all
this time In bis hand, lie lonkod per-
Elexed and angry, although he lifted
la straw hat with a profound bow,
and said pleasantly and carelessly
enonghl
"1 have the honor of bidding you a
very good-evening, Miss Middlutouf'
There was no answer; Cosy had
gone.
George walked away to tlio very
same spot whore he liad spent the
greater part of the evening a little
summer house, called the llciwor, built
nnder one of the tine cedars that
spread their dark arms over the
grassy lawn. It was a favorite spot
of bis, perhaps because he was fret to
moke there to his heart's content.
"A summer shower dear little
girl!" he thought to himself, with a
smile, recalling her inddon, girling
anger, and remembering how very
Sretty she looked with her blue eyes
ashing and her cheeks glowing llko
damask roses. How strange that she
could ever dream of taking horsolf out
of his life forever!
The rustle of a white dross, the
gleam of an exquisite face shrouded in
toft satin and lace, a lnugh clear and
musical as the notes of a bird, and
Cosy bad passed right through the
cloud of objectionable smoke leaning
on Percy Winyard's arm. and appar
ently quite unconscious of any need of
anger or regret
"I will sing to you to-morrow, and
perhaps I will toll you then," the
iweet, soft voice was saying.
Percy bent lower over the fair
speaker and whispered something that
George did not hear, but the reply to
those low, tender words came back to
him suddenly, painfully, like a knife
thrust into his heart. He sprung to
hla feet and atood by the little green
bower trembling with excitement.
"Yes, 1 care fur you a little only a
Terr, very little."
Was it really Cosy who was taken
Into Percy's arms and klssod once,
twice, under the cedars, with the
fragrance of the Portugal laurels
around and the moonbeams shining
through a rift in the durk boughs over
head Gosy, the dear little girl of bis
hopes and dreams, the swcot little
love for whose sake he had traveled
many thousand miles and resigned
willingly all the advantages that might
hare accrued to him from a longer
stay In the land of pagodas and pig
tails Could It be that the gay,
trifling girl whose merry laugh had
roused ban from bis re very was his
own sweet Cosy, who, despite her
hatred of smoking and her pas
sionate temper, hnd so often timid
ly confessed her love for him, and in
whose pure eyes he had read nothing
but truth aud honesty P Oh, It was
impossible, simply impossible he
could never have been so deceived.
"False and cruel as the emblem she
wore,", murmured Ueorge, "and I
would have staked my life on hor
goodness and faithfulness. " "
He went Into the little bower, and
sitting down by the rickoty wooden ta
ble strewn with fancy work and books
belonging to Cosy and tier sister, he
leaned bis head upon his arms, and a
few great sobs struggled upward from
his proud wrung heart. All the years
before him were a long desolate blank.
He must never see her again, the
false deceitful girl! lie must tuke up
the duties he bad reilgned so gladly
only a tew months before, and away,
in far country, without home, wifo,
or child, his days would henceforth ba
passed in a routine of dull monotonous
work for his country's service a fu
ture uncheered, unlighted by one rny
ol coming joy or one smile or kiss.
A shadow darkened the doorway,
and, with a sudden desporato effort,
be went out and faced the intruder.
It was Cosy, without the satin hood,
and looking very palo, with swolleu
red eyelids, and ber pretty evening
dress of delioate cashmere wet ana
draggled through trailing It over the
damp grass and paths. She started
back upon seeing ber lover's face and
shivered a little as she drew her cling
ing dress about ber.
"This is your bracelet, I believe,"
began George, struggling to preserve
a dignified resarve and colduoss of
uiauuer. "I tumid It here, ouly a tow
minute ago,"
Hutilug the pale fuoe, with the eyea
no longer glowing with anger, but
full of sorrowful plvadlug and minors,
lis could say no more. For surer!
moments there was a profound alienee)
then George Wharton roused himself,
and offerftig htr lh bracelet was
about to puss by her, when she laid
her hand gently upou hit arm ami so
detained him. ,
"Cosy," h said, almost despairing
ly, turning to her aud wouderiug
what her tiomluct could possibly mean,
"how could you do It when I loved
you soP
"I am sorry, dear," returned Cosy,
trying not to cry again. "I know It
was all very wrong- of ma to get into
such a rg: but 1 had waited for you
so long, aim of eourstt 1 thought Daisy

"Cosy, what are you talking about

since I picked np this proof of your
heartless conduct the bracelet you
now have iu your hand"
"The bracelet I Why, what have I

I gave It to Daisy. I'm sure you used
to say you haled lu It Is you who

"Dut did you not pass hefe hve min

"Daisy did. That is what I wanted
to tell you-Datsy aud IVroy."
"Um she had your hood ou."
"Had she Oh, very likely! We
do wear each other's thing lu the
most shameful way."
"My dnrllug." whispered George,
folding her tenderly lu hi arm, "will

"Why.what Is the matter (ioorge 1

"Dou't let us spunk ot It any more,"
George answered gravely. "Cosy I

Cosy laughed merrily.
"Uttorge," she said, looking down at

One day when a whole 'bus full of ns
drove tip to a hotel In Lynchburg, Vs.,
the landlord remembered that he had
a drummer from New York w ho had
been suffering terribly with toothncho
for two or three day. Ho had tried
every remedy known to man, except
that of having It pullud, but nothing
had availed hliu. He said ha hoped
some one of us might lie able to sug
gest something, and slowly added:
"(iontlnmcu, I havti heard that n
siiddcu shock to n imiu'ii nervous sys
tem would sometimes cure tho worst
toothm-hc. Can't you plan something?"
Six or eight of us got together in

decided that a man named Shunts, who
turned out to be a indent medicine ad
vertlscr, Hhntild go up to the room and
startlo the New l urkcr. lie was to do
it by claiming to having seen a ties
patch to the effect that his wifo hud run

that ought to cure hi toothache If any
thing would.
"How big a man Is he!" asked tho
delegate wiieu ready to go up.
"Oh, he's rather uiitrorsized," re
plied the htmllord. "If ho should get
on his ear, you ran easily slum him all
over the room."
The modleliio man went lip. We
followed, and stood at I he door to huar
the result. He found the Now Yorker
groaning like a sick horso;itnd ufler in

"Sorry for you, old fellow, particul

"WCRK DONE" BY MOUNTAINEERS.
CaleaUtlnn of the For Kipeaded by

i time exerted by the human bodyundei
j cert ui n conditions Is known to be as
tounding, hut no one has ever taken
the trouble to put More us that force
iu ligiirvs. Dr. J. BuchhnlHter ha now
mado a most Interesting calculation on
the "work done" by mountaineers In
ascending height, which will serve as
an illustration. Supposing a moun
taineer weighing 16S jxiiimls I making
the ascent of summit (MHH) feet high
from the point of starting, he has to
exiend an amount of physical force
found by multiplying hi' weight by
tho Ijcight to he a.soeuded. In the case
assumed a w eight of 16$ pound plus
a height of 7.000 feet equal 1 176.000
fo..t-itini!s; or, in other wonl, 1,170,
I.) pound have lo be lifted 1 foot
This I work performed merely by
the muscles of the leg; but, beside
thl. the contractions of the muscle ol
the heart have to lie taken Into ac
count. It function consists, as I well
known, lu propelling the blood collect
ing iu the heart, ou the one hand, into
tho arteries, and, on the other, Into the
lung. Thi 1 effected at an initial
velocity of 1 1-2 feet per second, which
represents in the cose of an adult a
work of 4 foot pouuds for each con
traction of the heart Tho pulsation
of an adult are on the average Ti per
minute, but In ascending height, ow
ing to the additional exertion, their
number I increased to au extraordin
ary extent. " ,
Assuming, for the sake of simplicity
In calculation, only 100 bents ot the
pulse per minute, this would give 400
foot-pounds per minute, 24,000 foot
pound per hour, tvud 120,000 foot
pounds for tho live hours supjiosod to
be required in ascending a height of 7,.
0(H) feet. The work iM-rfurmed by the
muscles in breathing, , by the expansion
and contraction of the Chest, may also
bo estimated at 4 foot-pounds. Assum
ing, further.thut the number of breath
lugs per mluuto is ou tho average only
twenty-live, although, as mutter of
fact, It will be found to lie higher lu t
mountain ascent lasting live hours, we
have to add further Work of 30,000 fool
pound. '
Tho total work performed during five
hours by a mounluineer consequently
amounts to 1,320,000 foot-pounds, lit
this estimate ore not Included the
pnysieui iorce spent in overcoming the
notion on the ground, the exertions to
be mado lu keeping tlto body erect at
dizzy heights and iu dragging heavy
boots and foot-irons, nor tlio loss ol
muscle power In cutting steps in the
loo, not to reckon tho work performed
in carrying an Ico axe, or the physical
force exerted In crossing fresh, loaf
suow. Taking all these conditions Into
account, Dr. But-hhuister arrives at thf
conclusion that tho work done in au
ascent of 7,000 feet, lasting five hours,
ennnot bo placed nt less tliuu 1,880,000
foot-pounds. Iron.

John Stetson, w ho m manager of
Booth' Theater and the Fifth Avenue
Theater some years ago. hasn't very
much of artistic In hi makeup, but be
has good deal of what be call "horse
sense." He doesn't intend that any
actor shall get the best of bim. Some
years ago comic opera, called "Pii
pens." was produced at his theater in
Boston, the Globe, and in the course of
the performance n asuiateur actor who
has beeome quite well known a a
manager since then appeared on the
stage, clad in white furs and made up
to represent an immense cat, and
"mlaued" nd capered about the stage
tor something like ten minutes. The
little specially did not take well with
the first night's audience, and Stetson
I once ordered pussy out ot the cant.
The amateur demanded a week' sal
ary at once, saving that he bad been
engaged for a full week.
"Very well," said Stetson, "come
around to-morrow night, and through
the week, and earn it."
The young man appeared the second
night, and remained on the stage un
til the curtain fell. Then be turned lo
go, but Mr. Stetson stopped him.
"Get Into your costume and give
your performance," said the mauager,
"But Mr. Stetson, the performance
is over."
"Never mind the rest of the show. Yon
have got to do your part of it now for
me."
And so the actor had to "mlan aud
caper" tor ten minutes with Stetson a
the only auditor. The next night he
tried to beg off. and offered to give up
a proportional part ot the salary, but
Stetson held bim to the agreement to
play the part of Pnsa tor a week.
Sometimes the nmuager remained to
witness tho youug man' efforts, and
sometimes be kept a group of stage
bauds as an audleuce. the actor
thought that ho. had fully earned hi
salary when he got it.
