There was but one hope—that o f giving the patient a supply o f artificial air by means o f oxygen. This plan was at once adopted. Tho doctor procured a tank containing 100 gallons o f oxygen. A t tached to this was a rubber tube with a mouthpiece. There were tw o stop cocks—one at the mouth o f the tube, the other at the point where the tube joined the tank. Whenever It became evident that Mr. Kelchling was suffering from a want of breath lie was required to inhale gas from the tank.

But the old friends, once lost to ua, Can never come again. The old friends, the old friends! T h eir brow is lined with care; T h ey ’ ve furrows in the faded cheek And silver in the hair. But to me they are tho old friends still. In youth and bloom the same As when we drove the flying ball Or shouted in the game. The old men, the old men, H ow slow they creep along! How naughtily w o scoffed at them In days when we w ere young! Th eir prosing and their dozing. Their prate of times gone by, T lieir shiver like an aspen leaf I f but a breath went by.

The child picked np the com and stared in silence. “ Say, kid, is dere a dago here?” one o f the policemen translated. The boy pointed with a thumb to a door at the left of the landing where the three men stood. Bronghion felt the th rill o f the righteous avenger. The malicious brnte who had twice destroyed the wares of the poor little image vend er would soon be sent to the island. And a good riddance for the community. One o f the police opened the door, and they entered. They saw at one side of the room a long work bench, covered with plaster images. The iconoclast sat there, carefully meuding a broken figure. The woman was leaning over his shoulder, laughing as they chatted in their own language. “ Eh, I always say it, Pietro, you have a holy hand at mending them ! I f not, w e m ight lose by the game. ” “ I don’t say, Marianna, that St. Sam uel is lietter than new, hut at least he w ill stick until he takes another tum ble. ” So that was their trick! A piece of real Neapolitan cunning. Broughton de cided that lie ought to have seen through it sooner. The woman caught sight of the visitors, aud ran forward with hands clasped: “ We ain’t dot.e-a nottin,” she pleaded. “ Dis our heez-a-uess. We all- a-right-a. ” “ Yes, yon’re a ll righ t,” said Brough ton impulsively. “ It was my mistake. I owe you a dollar for it. ” And he laid a silver dollar on the work bench of the maker, breaker and mender of images. The Italian looked np w ith a real N ea politan smile, radiant, many toothed, wide and irresponsible. “ T e ll me abont it , ” said the reporter. “ You not give-a me ’ way, gent'meu cops?” “ No. G o o n .” “ Look, it like-a dis. We not sell im age. And I say, you hear-a me, Marian- □a, we get more money to break a ll! She carry de image. Den I eome-a with grand-a force-a. Patatrac ! A il ruin-a! A-a-a-ar m e! Dat, Marianna.

See?” A l l this tim e the w ife stood with four rather clean and very beantifnl children clinging to her skirts, aud peeping shyly at the strangers. How could Bronghton or any one else blame this happy fam ily? Indeed Bronghton has never formu lated his views npou the case, although he used to take social problems very se riously. Whenever he meets Pietro in the street they exchange a glance o f in telligence. Sometimes the Neapolitan, by a quick gesture, iudieates Marianna farther along the avenue. Aud then Broughton, if he has time, assists at the — nth performance of the comedy of tho iconoclast.— Elizabeth Puilen iu St. Louis G lobe -Democ* a t Young Mr. Broughton was, unawares ami gradually, in process o f evolution from the journalist to the newspaper man. It took a ll sorts of rubs and sur prises and facers and disillusions to form him. Thai morning he was hurrying through Printing House square ou an assignment, when lie noticed before him a woman carrying on her head a tray of plaster images and walking w ith the stately gait and even poise of the south Italian. She was small, brown. Kite wore a gown of bine cotton, a woolen shawl, plaided in olive and yellow , aud a red kerchief on her head. These glar ing colors, however, made her a picture. T o observe her Bronglitou passed by her and then looked back. She regarded him calmly. “ Buy a lit’ San Samuele says-a his oration, signor?” Broughton had no particuhir use for a praying Samuel, but he had various the ories about our adopted citizens aftd might have acquired something in the plaster cast line if at that moment a broad shouldered fellow had not come and jostled the little woman so roughly that the tray was thrown from her head and went ruining to the sidewalk. It was the end of the world for that popu lation of graven images. They fe ll in a heap of indistinguishable fragments, m ingling their dnst in a complete de mocracy o f saints, politicians, lambs, the three graces, and even a model o f a beantifnl foot labeled Trilby. L ittle Samuel was past praying for, bnt he was no more thoroughly pulverized titan the bust of Napoleon. Young Mr. Brough ton fe lt stirring within him an essay on the fra ilty of mandat e things. Then the air was torn w ith the lamentations of the womnn. “ O Madonna I” N ext she denounced the cause of the disas er, who was mov ing away. “ Head c f big, yon are-a! Why a yon hit-a me? ^ h a t I ever done at you-a? You break-a ty image— I not eat-a m ore!” she rattled her finger naiLs along her front teeth to indicate the hunger which would be the consequence of the breaking of her stock in trade. Meanwhile tw o bootblacks had seized the man by the elbows, and turning him aronnd ran him hack face to face with the woman. She stood w ringing her hands and wai ling. “ What ruin! Poor-a m e !” The aggressor was evidently also an Italian. " S o y !” one of the bootblacks said. “ Youse has goiter reach down inter yer clothes an square np w id de dago loitly. ” “ H e’s a bloomin dago hisself,” com mented the other boy. Broughton had been painfully com posing a few phrases of sneh colloquial Italian as his Harvard studies of Dante had rendered possible to him, and now uttered them in a stiff aud toneless ac cent. In effect, he said that it was nec essary to pay the compatriot for that which was broken. “ Intnly got, a tencent-a, signor,” said the offender, handing the coin to the woman He was permitted to go in peace. "T e n a cent-a! Madonna m ia! For so mooch im ago!” sobbed she. So Broughton put $1 into hisowu hat and passed it aronnd among tho throng that had been attracted by the noise. When he gave : he col lection to the wom an, she wiped iter eyes, kissed his hands with many benedictions, aud went her way. Broughton's assignment had taken him in the direction of Mulberry bend. As he returned through that quarter he saw a hundred yards in front of him a woman w ith a tray o f images on her head. He qniekeued his pace aud soon was near her. It was the satin Ita lia n ; she had replenished her tray with more saints aud heroes and graces. “ So it is,” mnsed young Mr. Bronghtcn— who still trailed clouds of the glory o f journalism — “ that in this world no one is indis pensable. One perish.-», another replaces h im !” Just then, swaggering around a cor ner, appeared the former breaker of images, and again, as if on purpose, he swung his arm rudely against the wom an. As before, a crash, lamentations and a crowd. The dwellers of Mulberry bend, themselves w ell acquainted with poverty, gave of their few copper coins to her, who sat wailing among the ruins of her wares. They helped her to pick np such of the casts as were not irreme diably broken and to replace them on the tray. This time Broughton did not Btay to act as consoler. The aggressor had walked off rapidly, and the reporter followed him. A fter five minutes’ chase they turned into an nnspeakably dirty alley, where the Italian entered a door way without noticing that any one pur sued him. Broughton, having made snre that he should recognize the house again, hastened to tho nearest police station and told the story. “ She was aquiet, decent little body,” he said totheofficer. “ Thatgreat. hulk ing brute struck her on purpose the sec ond time, even admitting that the first time might have been by accident.” T w o policemen were detailed to ac company Mr. Bronghtcn, who was known to the chief of the station, and he led them straight to the door where the Italian had entered. Up the dark and broken stairs they climbed. Brough ton shrunk from contact w ith the slimy walls. It seemed to him that e v il odors were depositing themselves there in a pestilential fungous growth. A t last they emerged upon a lauding. A c b ild leaned over the baluster of the Rtory above. Broughton tos.-.-d him a nickel. “ M y little man, is there an Italian livin g in this house?” CROSSWISE RIDING. A Riding tlaatrr Believes It For Wom en. Liaugerooa YO UNG N O BILITY.

Investigation at the lo cal riding schools proves that there are a number of society girls taking np this uew fad, which of course it is at the present time.

Nothing could be fairer, more philan thropic or carry more joy in its wake than the offer of T. A. Slocum, M. C „ o f 183 Pearl street, New York. Perfectly confi dent that be has an absolute remedy for the cure o f consumption and all pulmon ary complaints, he offers through this pa per to send two bottles tree to any reader who ia suffering from lung troubls or con sumption, also loss of tieso and all condi tions of wasting. He invites those desir ous of obtaining this remedy to send their express and postofiice address, and to re ceive in return tbe two bottles free, which will arrest the approach o f death. A l ready this remedy, by its timely use, has permanently cured thousands of cases which were given up, and dea. h waslooked upon as an early visitor. Knowing his remedy as he does, and be ing so proof-positive o f its beneficent re suits, Dr. Slocum considers it his religious duty, a duty which he owes to humanity, to donate his infallible remedy where it will assault the enemy in its cidatel, and. by its inherent potency, stay the current o f dissolution, bringing joy to homes over which the shadow ol the grave has been gradually growing more strongly defined, causing fond hearts to grieve.
