What's In a Name. "
Although the Australian colonies
bare now been linked together In t
commonwealth, protmbly the nick
names bestowed by one province on
another will stick. Tbe Inhabitants of
New South Wales have long been
known as "cornstalks" an nlluslou to
tbe length and slltiiness of the avcrajo
young New South Wales native. Vic
torians aro known as "gum-suckers"
frith reference to Ibe gum found on
many nntlvo trees, some of which Is
relished by Juveniles. "Crow-enters,"
aa applied to the South Australians,
owes Its origin to a statement that. In
times of drought tbe wheat farmer.
In South Australia are driven to the
source suggested for food. "Wheat
fielders" Is sometimes used for the
same province. Queensliiii(1ers are
known as "banana-landers," Westrall
ana as "sandgropers" or "gropcrs." The
Westrallana themselves group nil the
other slntes Into "t'other side," and
cull the residents "t'other-slders," Tas
mania Is generally regarded at very
quiet and rather behind the times, and
Is referred to as "the land of lets of
time," "the land of sleep a lot," and so
on; while the Inhabitants are called
"Tassles" and "Jain-eaters," the latter
being an allusion to the great fnilt pro

their bead man about the farm, loved

He was good and palleni, Industrious
and a fair mualelau, and be was aiso

think of such a Ihlug as ever marrying
t. t-ltm ami liuli-wl. he bad never hinted
at any such thing, thutigb i bsd been
there over five yesrs. Hut he thought
of ber and Intended that she should be
his wife, aud at last be begsu to act
more like a lover than pleaacd Hotly.
Due dsy when Ibe hsy wss ready for

and I lie he hummed drowsily among
Ibem, and Ibe birds fluttered down Into
the alinde, sll the men ou Ibe big farm
went out lo cut the bay wlih rrlls at
their head, and old Mr. Msrtln and bis
wife went to the funeral of an old
friend. Holly was left alone In the old
bouse.
Homethlug weighed upon her spirits.
Khe had seen three black crows circle
three limes rouud the old well, and
she accepted that as a sign of coming
evil, and her little heart grew heavy
aa sb Imagined all sorts of danger
thst might menace them; and theu a
shsdow fell across the doorwsy aud
the rslaed ber eyes, to see an old wom
an standing there.
The old woman waa In rags, and her ,
gray bslr bung down over a wrinkled
and smoke-browned face, and Ibis wss
lighted by piercing Mark eyes.
"Uoud-dsy to you, my pretty Isdy,
tthsll I tell your fortune? I bav route

"Oh. I think not." ssld Holly, itait
frightened. !
"Ho let me tell you. for you hsv a
wonderful lot to life. Vour fortune
w ilt take you far, and I bav com so
far to tell you."
"Hut," said Hotly, "I have no money
of my own. 1 never need sny, aud nev
er have any to speiij."
"Welt, my little one, perhsna you
have an old brooch or pair of esr-rlngs,
or something of that sort Hint you
would glv me. For such a fortune aa
1 read last night In the stars for you,
people would glv bsudfuls of gold."
"1 don't know," said Holly. "I thluk
I have something like thst. If you will
tit dowu here and wait till 1 bring It,"
and with a beating heart, tha foolish
child weut to ber room and took from
a drawer a quaint old pair of ear
rings with yellow topas stones. They
were heavy and handsome, though old
fsshloned, and the gipsy received them
with gleaming eyes, for they suited Iter
barbaric taste.
Holly did not know they were valu
able. They bad belonged to a great
stmt, and they had lain year after year
among her possessions, and sue offer
ed them testing tbey would not be
enough.
"Now, my pretty dear, take hold of
my hands and look m straight In the
eyes, and never forget what I have
said. You were born under a lucky
star. Your life Ilea before you a
smooth and happy path. You will travel
In strange countries and see wonders,
and you will tie a very rich woman.
You will marry a noblemsu; one of a
long line of nobles, and you will be en
vied of all women. Your husband will
adore you to your last dny and .die of
grief two days Inter. You will have
two children a son and daughterand
they will lie both great and distinguish
ed, and you will live to a good old age
and he loved by every one. All this Is
yet to come, but tbe si are say that your
fate Is very near yon."
Holly listened In breathless silence.
Could this be true? Then she asked,
timidly, "but how soon?"
"All, my dear, I don't control destiny,
I only reveal what I rend In ths stars."
"But bow am I to know?"
"That I cannot tell either. It will be
revealed to you In some way. Now,
don't forget, and good-by," and the
gipsy dlsnppcnred, leaving poor Dolly
confounded.
She believed every Word tb old
woman told her. She believed In all
sorts of supernatural things, and th
fnct that any one could read the stars
waa as patent to her as that they could
read a book, but she snld nothing and
went about her duties nowadays with
the same Industry, but with a look of
expectancy lu ber eyes, as If watching

Poor Krlta! in vain be played sweet
airs on his flute or violin; In vain he
sang or talked. Dolly's little heart
was now closed to bis voice, and he
sighed In vain. He was not an ordin
ary man, and she knew It, though he
held a mediocre position In Mr. Mar
tin's farm, and the old folk liked him
so well, and trusted him so thoroughly,
that they would gladly bare had him
for a grnnihon-ln-law, and felt hnppy
In leaving Holly so well provided for,

Holly would have been en -led,

On morning Krlta tried to kls Dol

by a curious throb of aweet pain that
agitated ber wicked llttl heart, draw
back her hand and dealt hi in a sling

A Hill befor noon on of tb men
cam hurriedly up to tha house to aay
that th horses attached to tb reaper
had been frightened and run away,
throwing rrita off among the knives;
that be waa badly hurt, and asking
where b should be taken.
Holly got very wblte for a few niln

of those glittering knives, and ought to
be cut off.
"Why, bring hint ber aa soon ss yon

Aa soon ss Holly coubl see him sbs

tears chased each other adown ber

aud It would not be possible to toll who
