"Do! that's a dear, good Dolly." And I did. - my There was a rustle and a flutter of muslin, the sound of a light, s.prinjry step, the glimpse of a fairy form, and Mrs. "Winslaw stood bofore me.

But the time flew swiftly and pleasantly after dinner, and when the great round sun was sinking behind trees thnt burned and glowed in the rich, warm light, she came to where I was sitting, and Jaid a portrait in my lap, without saying a word. It was that of a noble-looking man, with most expressive and faultless features. "Is it your husband?" I asked. "My husband as he was," she an swered, with a sigh. "You have never seen him?" I replied in the negative. "It is almost time for him to be here," she continued. "You will stay with us this evening?" I replied that I should bo happy to form his acquaintance, and once more looked at his portrait. "Ho doesn't look like that now," she answered. wining away a tear. "Yet he savs."'niul a blush overspread her fea tures, "he says he shall ever have cause to bless tho fire by which ho lost his good looks, but which won him what he esteemed a uiousami nines more vaiun bin." "What was it ?" I asked, with an un accountable dullness of apprehension. She pointed archly, and with a sweet smile to her wedding ring. "Do tell me the story; I should be de lighted to hear it." Aomin she smiled, saying : "1 do not know that you will consider it interesting; however, several reasons consniro to make me wish that you should know all, and since you have never heard, perhaps I may as well tell you." "Certainly, certainly." "You see, when Mr. Winslow first began his attentions to me, I wasn't at all pleased. lie was nanusome, i wen knew, but I had set my mind, very fool ishlv. I suppose, on having a rich husband, and one that could keep me above the necessity oi won;. &o j slierhted and repulsed him uiion all oc casions, making him feel not merely ilifl'nrent. but scornful and loathiue;. Such Jtreatmont one might have sup posed would liavequickiy obliterated his passion; on the contrary, however, it seemed only to increase it. "About this time I formed the ac quaintance of a city gentleman, whom rumor reported immensely rich, and whose intense selfishness was veiled be neath a manner of the utmost suavity. His attentions to me were very marked, and not to be mistaken, and though he had not spoken of love, he acted and looked it, and I believed hiin. "At this time l lived witu my motner, in our beautiful cottage at North Uentl; tlie place was very gay, and social par ties were very large ami frequent; I mingled in them all, and llarton was my escort. Sometimes I saw Winslow, but he seldom approached me. "It was in October; the atmosphere dry and cool. As we were returning from a party late at night, I was much surprised by the appearance in the dis tance of a deep red light that seemed to climb the sky and quench the very stars. A wild and awful presentiment of ap proaching evil at the same instant crossed my mind. " 'If that should be our house!' I al most shrieked. " 'Nonsense! it is much farther off,' exclaimed Barton. "But, unsatisiied, I hurried on, drag ging him with me. "We came nearer. My fears were all too true. It was Indeed our beautiful home, wrapped in one broad sheet of smoke and name, wmie up at one oi me skylights stood my mother m nor night dress-.

" 'Great Heavens! and I have loved this man!" The inougm rusneu seeth lnintul seething through my brain.

His wife pre sented him, and giving me his hand, he said:- "One whom my dear wife esteems so much cannot be a stranger to me, and now. since she lias told you a part fori have been a sad eavesdropper let me ten you tne rest." I joyfully assented.

I forgot my own sufferings.

"Oil! William." cried Mrs. Winslow. and blushing to tho very roots of her hair, "don't tell how silly and. foolish 1 was." "It was neither silliness nor folly," I answered, "but the reward of great virtue and heroism. Liet him go on." "I have but little more to tell. When I was quite well I noticed that all the mirrors Had been removed. I had thought little of the scars that had de faced my features. When I requested a mirror to be brought, she implored me to desist, and finally burst into tears. I know it all now, but my scars didn't shock me in the least. I took licr in my arms and whispered, that sliico her beautiful face had become mine, I saw no cause to regret the loss or my old one, and would not for the world change back again.

Instead of giving the traditional scream, Miss Pun-is remained perfectly nulet and awaited development. The llrst man crawled noiselessly under her bed.

Miss Purvis slipped out of lied, seized a bay rum bottle and smashed it over the I... ll l..I U Clml gathered him up , by the hair aud drag ged him to the window. Not a word was spoken. The rellow, under tins mode of treatment, recovered his senses and leaped out. The scoundrel under mo bed did not stir. He no doubt believed that his presenco there was not known. Having disposed of the first fellow, Miss Purvis took a small tin trumpet from her bu reau drawer, and stooping down, at the samo time turning the gas slightly on, she presented the small end of tho trum pet at the crouching rorm or tho thor oughly terrified man under tho bed, and said: "See here, young man. you have been there -long enough. Just scrabblo out instantly, or I will blow you into tho middle of next week." He did not wait for the second invita tion. Miss Purvis kept him covered with tho trumpet, and, fearing that his time had come, lie made a lively shake for the window and went out like an arrow.

But tho first tiling she did that morning was to purchase a cow-hide, and in tho afternoon she met tiic object of her search in CcntralMount Vernon, and, witliout a wonl of expla nation, began to lay the instrument upon Abraham's back.

Diptheria, in its curly stage, may be recoguized by auy person of ordinary talent, by two very marked symptoms; the seus;itiorupf.a,bonc or hard substance' in th'ethrrat, 'rendering swallowing difficult and painful, and a marked fietor, unplcasaut smell of tlie breath, the result of its putrefactive in fluence. On the apjxarancc of these symptoms, If the patient is old enough to do so, give a piece of gum camphor of the size of a marrowfat pca.and let It be retained in tlie mouth, swallowing slow ly tlie saliva charged with it until it is ail gone. In an hour or so give another, ami ai ine cnit oi another a mini: a fourth will not usually bo required ; but If the pain and unpleasant breath are not relieved, it may be used two or three limes more, at a little longer interval, say two or three hours.
