A JUST 1MJNISIIMENT.
In a spacious and richly furnished
apartment of a largo and imposing
mansion, situated in a fashionable
quarter of the city of London, sut the
capricious belle and haughty beauty,
Agnes Templeton.
Every object in the room botokoned
wealth and tnste.
The only occupant of tho room was
the fair Agnes, who was roclining in
dolently upon a velvet sofa, indulging
In a dreamy roverio.
She was nearly 17 years of ago, with
regular features, a lily complexion,
and a queenly form; but the greatest
charm of her peerless beauty lay in her
hair her dark, glossy, luxuriant hair,
which full from lier small regal head,
in long, clustering ringlets, eomplcto
ly enveloping her suowy neck and
shoulders.
"Lady Montford! How grand it will
sound," she soliloquised. "I shall soon
be mistress of Montford manor, and
the envy of all the belles in the city.
But I almost wish that I had declined
the old baronet's offer, for I don't love
him as 1 love Lawrence Arbuthnot.
The adulation and admiration that I
shall receive, will, I liopo, fully com
pensate for the sacrilieu that I have
made."
After a natisn she continued!
"Although 1 shall bn Lady Montford
and caressed and Haltered by my
titled husband I shall not bo so truly
happy as I would wore I the wife of
Lawrence. All, 1 lo not Know oi a
diviner happiness than that! lint why
repent now? The time for that is past,"
and she bowed her regal bead and
iglied.
At this moment a trim littlo maid
servant entered the apartment.
"Well, LusotteP" said her mistress,
raising her head languidly.
"Mr. Arbuthnot is in the hull aud do
sires to see you," replied the girl.
For several minutes Miss Templeton
the costly ring which, signified her be
trothal to Kir Guy Montford. It was a
strugglo between love and tlrtty. She
loved Lawrence Arbuthnot ns woli as
her sellisli and capricious nature was
capable of loving, but she knew it was
wrong now to encourage hint as u
lover, and moreover, she was certain
thatue now visited her in thatcapacity,
and was not aware of her. engageiuout
with tho baronet,
"I will see him, Lusulto," she proud
ly said.
The girl immediately withdrew, but
in a few moments re-entered the room,
conducting a handsome young man of
prepossessing appearance, who greeted
the young beauty with deferential
politeness. It v his demeanor he still
evidently considered himself a favored
suitor.
Agnes returned his salutation with
a bewitching smile, and lief maiiuei
was particularly grni't ful and winning.
"1'lease be seated,'' she said in a soft,
musical voice, and he carelessly com
plied, remarking:
"An absurd r 'port Is current to-day
that vou are soon to be wedded to Sir

lie topped abruptly, for her cheeks
were (lushing vividly, and the fair
hand that be clasped was trembling
Violently.
"Miss Templeton," ho said, coldly,
"I believed tins rumor false, but your
agitation does notcoulirni my belief."
Seeing she did not reply he added, in
a low tone:
"Agnes, is It true?"
"Alas, too true," she fullered.
"And yet," he said, Utterly, "vou
did not refuse to see nio this evening
you, the atllanced wife of another."
A redder glow suffused her face ns he
made this remark, and Mm betit her
head low, lint did not reply.
"Why did you allow me access in
your presence this evening?" he asked,
trivng in vaiu to catch a glimpse of her
bowed face.
"Oh, I don't know; I cannot tell,"
he murmured.
"Is it possible that she loves meP''
asked Lawrence Atbulhnot to himself.
"Agnes Templeton," he said, "have
you deliberately bartered your soul for
an empty title? When you pledged
your hand to Sir Guy, did your heart
go with ilP"
'I cannot answer your question," alio
returned, confusedly.
"Agnes," lie exclaimed, passionate
ly, "you do not love your alliauced
husband! Tell me, do you love an
other.' Is it is that one myself?''
The low, faint whispering answer
was in tho alllrnmlive,
"Yet you are tho promised brido of
another, he resumed, with passionate
vehemence. Oh, Agnes, why did you
accept the baronet's offer, when
you did not love him? Ask him to re
lease you from this iniquitous engage
ment at the earliest opportunity, or
your peace and happiness will beruinn I
forever. Agnes, 1 beseech oti, ro
uounce this marriage,"
"Too Intel" she uiurmurcd. "Mv
wonl Is given. I cannot retrace now.''
""Whall will you become a perjnreii
bride, an unloving w ife?"
"I must; there is no alternative now."
"Weak, misguided woman f
"Call tue what vou will. I caunot
retrace now I cannot do as you wish
"I hope your wedded life may be
happy. Miss Templeton," he said,
calmly relinquishing her hand, and
rising to depart.
She bowed her head slightly in ac
knowledgement, and said:
"Remember. Mr. Arbuthnot, that
you will always bo a welcome visitor
at Montloru manor.
"Thank you," ho raplcd; "but do not
be disappointed if I do not avail my
self of tho opportunity which your in
vitation allows me."
"I trust you will change you decision
before tho season is over." she said,
with a vain attempt to smiln.
"Next week I shall sail for India,"
he observed gravely.
"You will not forget me?'' she said,
witli a sigh.
"Forget you!" ho exclaimed. "Think
vou that I too, am falseP No, Agnes
Templeton, I shall never forget you;
but I shall strive until I have utterly
subdued tho deep love that I now bear
you."
They quietly exchanged partings,
and with a long, sad clasping of hands,
and a tremulous '-(jood-by" on her
part, a calm, sad one on his, they
separated.
After Mr. Arbuthnot had departed.
Agues threw herself upon a sofa, and
gavo vent to her long-restraiuod fool
ing in a Hood of toars.
For some time she remained so,
weeping silently, and bitterly regret
ting the irretrievable past.
At lenglh Lusetle, roused her, and
announced the urrival of Sir Guy Motit
ford. Agnes hastily arose, bathed hor tear
ful eyes, brushed out her luxuriant
ringlets, and was soon ready to meet
her future husband.
One month subsequently they wore
married with great pomp and splendor,
aud Lawrence Arbuthnot bad sailed
for India, in hopes that among new
scenes the harrowing past would be
forgottou.
It was a mild delightful afternoon,
and the balmy air was cooling and ex
hilarating. In tho pleasant apartments of Mont
ford manor sat the Lady Agnes Mout
fort, attired in a partly mourning
dress.
Six years have passed since her un
happy marriage, but the latter three
of those years have been passed in
silent widowhood.
Timo has not deprived hor of her
beauty, and she is still tho fascinating
and enchanting creature she was when
she captivated the heart of Lawrence
Arbuthnot
"I wonder what Lawronco finds o
Interesting in KflicP" she murmured to
herself, "for a month lie lias been a
guest hero, but nearly the whole of
that timo he lias devoted himself en
tirely to my atep-daughter.
"No, no, he does not love her; he has
moro sense than to fall in love "'

T .. Agnes was interrupted In hor
iflllotjiiji by llio auddeu entrance of
her sou, a handsome boy of some 6
summers.
"Woll, Guy," she said, fondly, lay
ing her baud caressingly upon his
dark brown curls, "where have you
been."
"Out upon the lawn playing with
Carlo," answered the boy. "Mamma,
whore's EUioP" he asked, after a short
interval.
"She is taking a rido with Mr.
Arhothnot."
"There they aro now, coming up the
avenue," suddenly exclaimed the boy,
glancing out the open window and be
holding tho two equestrians, who wcro
slowly cantering their horses in the
direction of the house.
They dismounted when theyroached
tho door, and Ellie Montford immedi
ately sought her step-mother's apart
ment, while Lawrence Arbuthnot re
tired to the chamber which had been
assigned t him while he remained a
guest of Lady MontforU Lady Agnes
looked up with au affectionate smile
ns the lovely Ellio entered,
"Did you enjoy the ride, my doarl"
she inquired, pleas:intly.
"Yes, mother," replied Ellio, soating
herself upon an ottoman, while a vivid
blush stole to her cheek. '
"Mother," she continued, averting
her 11 mlicd face. "Mr. Arbuthnot has
asked mo to bo his wife."
The rich color slowly recoiled in an
icy tide from Lady Agues' cheeks whoa
he heard the fatal announcement
which blasted her long cherished
hopes, aud her face became cold a
marble, aud a pallid hue overspread
her features like that of death.
With a wild cry ElUa sprung for
ward as if to sustain her step-mother,
but Lady Agnes motioned her away,
and in a low but pet luotly oalru voice
she asked;
"What answer did yon give him?"
"1 told him tlsat I could give him no

Dr. Nisbet's Poultry Notes.
I cannot recommend turkey breeding
as a paying business t,o those who live In
cities and villages, on account of the re
striction of the grounds, but the furmer,
on his ample premises and extensive
fields, can raise them cheaply ana ad
vantageously at the same time. Breed
ing and raising turkeys Is not such a
nurd tapk as "some people suppose.
Adult turkeys are extremely hardy, and
will stand almost any climate without
showing signs of tenderness. The only
trouble about the business is raising the
young poults until they are a couple of
months old. After that time there Is not
much danger; they will grow rapidly
right along, and in tho fall they will be
almost us larf,'0 as the old birds.
The generally accepted feed for the
first week after hatching is hard-boiled
eggs, sprinkled with ground black pepper
aud onion-tops chopped fine. After the
first week add oatmeal, cooked dry, or
bread crumbs. Curds, with the whey
well squeezed out, nearly dry, can be
given at any time in almost any quantity.
Boiled potatoes may bo added, and at
threo weeks cracked wheat and crnckod
corn cun safely be fed. Baked cornbread
or cornmeal boiled dry, mixed with
boiled potatoes, is an excellent feed
everv dav for the firpt few months. A
little water or milk should be given them
three or four times a day, but should
never be lett in such vessels as to render
them liablo to fall into them and thus
get wet.
When quite young it is imperat ive that
they be kept out of storms and heavy
morning dews. Tho coops must be kept
high, dry and clean. They should not be
allowed to roam with tho hen until they
are at least four weeks old, and even
then only in warm dry weather. Keep
your young turkeys growing right from
tho start and you will find that it will pay
when puy day comes. After they aie
fully feathered uud have thrown out the
red on their heads they may be allowed
unlimited range ut all times, and from
that time on as long as the supply of in
sects lusts they will thrive upon two
meals a day.
As there is a demand for turkey feath
ers for making brushes and dusters, we
call tho attention of those who have here
tofore allow ed them to go to w aste to tho
following in regard to taking care of
them :
In saving the feathers of turkeys it is
recommended that they be taken iu bags
like ge'eso feathers, those from tho bodv,
wings and tail being left separate, and
eacli kind packed iu u box by ittelf. For
tail and wing feathers the boxes should
be a little wider than the feathers are
long, and the feathers laid In the boxes
straight, care being observed that tho
ends of the feathers do not curl up, as
this spoils them for making dusters and
thereby impairs the sale of them. In se
lecting the wing feathers leave out the
third joint, or that part commonly used
as a fan, as feathers on that part of tho
whig are uaoUma - Jaeture
dusters. Body f cut hers should be "'l1'
as straight as possible, and alo packed
In boxes. Keep all feathers perfectly
dry, as wet feathers aro unsalablo; for
this reason turkeys should he dry picked.
Study your market and the preferences
of your customers.
It Is much better to study how to pre
vent dlseaso than how to cure sick f ow ls.
Poultry droppings make tho best fer
tilizer for tho tlower and vegetable
garden.
Bize and condition count for more In
market than any particular shade of
color in skin or shell.
"Make hiiHto slowly." Steady, per
sistent improvement will " get there"
sooner than a rapid "mushroom" growth.
Keep thoroughbred fowls only if you
wish to attain tl e best results. There
are enough breeds, und of enough sizes,
shapes and colors for any purpose.
If one breed does not suit your tnste
or your market, try another. This ap
plies to selling thoroughbreds for breed
ing us well us inaiket fowls for consump
tion. ltemember that nn even degree of tem
perature Is essential to young chicks. It
is of more importuned than food or drink.
A chill will upset a chick's digestive ap
paratus on short notice.
Keep your fowls tame. They will do
better; besides it is a great satisfaction
when visitors or prospective buyers enter
your yards to be able to view the fowls
ut short range. It will pay. Try it.
The sunshine of spiing hatches vermin
as well as chickens.
Tho making of sugar from sorghum
is not yet a success
The German prune and the plum are so
nearly allied that they should not be
grown In the nnni orchard or they will
hybrid izo iu fruit.
The romona Time Inquires why tho
Texas electric fence might not bo utilized
in fencing out rabbits, uud says : ' A
couple of small wires, strung around the
young orchard, charged with electricity,
would do the business, und when nn old
long-cared Jack tackles It, ho Would be
knocked clear over into San Bemardiuo
couuty. It wouhl be a good thing for
the trees and a surprise party every

" Did you ever see horses that wore
bustles, (list like a woman?" asked Dr.
Henry Wilson, who is just back from
Kentucky. "John Hughes showed a
pair of horses In a buggy that he had
been offered $;I,51HI for, and asked $5,(H)0.
They took the blue lilibon, und knew
every gait that a horse ever made.
These horses wore bustles nil the time,
except when on the road. When put in
their stalls a wire bustle, Just such as a
lady wears, only smaller, was put under
tho'tail and held there by a strap. This
mode the horse ttirow the tail from the
body, and give It style in action. Many
horsey In Kentucky wear bustles. It is
a regular trade about Lexington to buy a
likely handsome horse from the country
for fllOO to $400, and educate hiiu to all
the gaits, and give him style, speed him
up a little and tell him for a thousand
or so."
Be sure and put sulphur In the nests
and kerosene on tho roosts once a week.
It is much easier to keep vermin away
than to get rid of them when ouco they
guiu a foothcld.
Attention to the quality ot food often
saves a tine lot of birds.
Never buy an incubator unless it Is
perfectly ge'lf-regulating.
Be careful not to feed your birds too
much Bt this set son of the year, else
they will get too f ut aud stop laying.

Rival of Uie Virginia Natural Bridge.
High up in the crest of the mount
ains on the Birmington, Sheffeld and
Tennessee River Kulroad, there is to
bo found one of nature's wonders. It
is a natural bridge, as complete, as
perfect, as symmetrical, and, in some
essentials, more remarkable than the
great natural bridge of Virginia.
Tho bridge lies between tne stations
of Linn and Delimir. It is about fifty
eight miles from Siielliutd aud tweutv
nine miles from Jasper. Its length
from abutment to abutment is 176 feet.
Its width is 35 feet aud the thickness
ranges from 1 to 6 feet It is of pure
sandstone, aud has no doubt stood the
ciimuto of ages. Leaning over the
bridgo you see in the raviue which it
spans, some sixty feet bolow, the
shimmer aud sparkle of many springs
of clear, limpid water, which bubble
from the sandstone soil, aud joining
flow down tho ravine. A singular
feature is a subdivision or smaller
bridge, constructed on the same pat
tern, perhaps even more perfect lines,
which loads from one side of the bridge
proper. Tuscumbia North Alabamian.
