Euataoj was vtith the family at the evening meal, so important to the New tons, and uiet the revelation which Lil lian conveyed to him as a true hearted son should dq. While at tea Grenville was announced. Rose excused herself, preferring to see her lover alone before joining the family in the library. Some time elapsed Itefore they apj»eared, and then Jasper expressed nie sympathy >4 th a sincerity and earnestness that could leave no doubt of the real interest he felt in the joys or sorrows or the family. Yet George, with his perception sharp ened by previous knowledge, discerned a restless nervousness that betokened some deeper source of uneasiness than the us. Then, subject now before them, and from Willing, wi Rose’s mood he thought she herself had detected something unnatural in his manners. When all were seated after supper, Mr. Newton entered at once upon the subject under considerations and briefly narrated th« substance of that which'has already been told., ‘•And now’, my dear ones, we are in no danger of interruption this evening, and here no separate interests need prevent each from expressing his or her opinion with perfect freedom. Dunbar and Gren ville, you have cast in your lot with us so far as to make it very proper and desira ble for your views to be heard with the others. But, my dear friends, remember you arc not bound to cling to fallen fortunes.” “Surely,” interrupted Eustace, “mv Lilly lias lost no grace for which I have loved her these many years by your di minished wealth, lias she? Ah, she is only the more precious, and if I could only make it apparent that it might be best to lmsten our marriage I could re joice in your trials if J had not learned to love the parents almost as much as the promised bride.” “Although I cannot boast a love of many years, as can Dunbar,” said Gren ville, with unusual hesitation, “I think it will defy any of fortune's vicissitudes. 1 had heard some intimation of these trou bles before I came and hastened hither to urge you to shorten these two long years, and as Dunbar seems meditating a similar petition I am hopeful of success,” All this appeared right and natural, but why should Jasper, usually so free and open in Conversation, manifest an embarfasaiAent so foreign to his nature? George evidentlv does not trust him. and «ven fio® lm ill TneKe thought« pasted rapidly through Qeyton’s Fnlijd while Jasper was speaVinZ And a dull pain was at his heart, but concealing it lie quietly re- to vour buggwitii aS, I must bespeak your (gflcnce wliile wA, as is most just, listefi to A word from all. George, my son, what have you to offer now?” So the various members ot the New ton family agreed to the plan suiumed up by Balpli. “Well, I vote for the country, the farm ing operations,” said he, “and we will make our Rose a true, genuine Yankee housewife. Jasper, a burning aud shin ing light among our southern dames. Whew! No offense, my lord, I trust! You surely can put up with a little sport without such jiortentous frowns.” “I am not conscious of frowning.” said Jasper moodily. “But I own I do not understand the spirit there can 1» in speaking of your sister as doing hard labor, nor will I tamely listen to your sneers against my countrywomen.” “Nor will I hear you, Jasper Gren ville, speak in that tone to iny brother,” said Rose, laying an ice cold hand on her lover's arm. "You strangely forget your self to imagine an implied insult from one who has ever been a true and loving friend.” “Pardon me, Rose, 1 have no wish to imagine an insult, but it sounded very like it.” “You are in a strangely auspicious aud captious mood tonight, Jas(>er, and could I believe for one moment that our re verses”— “Say it not, Rose, dear Rose! You know perfectly well you have no cause to believe me capable of any but the ten- derest and truest sympathy.” “Pardon the interruption,” said Nr. Newton firmly, “but this must cease. In my presence disputes or unkind re- fparks can never be tolerated. It is un looked for, my friend, to see you so dis turbed by a simple remark, which, al though it may have seemed ill timed, a short time since you would have been the first to laugh at and enjoy,” THE BRITISH MUSEUM Vieron CASTOR If for Infants and “CMtorlabso wellrulo;.ted to children that I recommend Itassuperior to any prescription known to me.” II.

How do these objections appear to you. Lucy?’ ■T sympathize with you fully. Edward. I have no doubt that Eustace's plan could be most successfully carried out. but the turmoil and distress you have passed through of late are too fresh in my mind for nt«* to feel anything but repugnance at the thought of seeing yon again enter upon the same business, even under such Iglearant auspices.” “So that plan is laid on the table, Eus tace, and though it was n grand one I Im glad that it did not meet with favor,” laid George. “Now. father, please call for plan the second.” “Yes, Eustace, we would gladly have It. You must not think me obstinate or iuappreciative of the really sound, good judgment your first suggestion evinced. Only circumstances make it undesirable with the present state of feeling.” “Yon will all recollect,” resumed Eus tace, “that fine country residence about 20 miles from the city that old Squire Montgomery used to own. full of shrub bery. fruits and vineyards. I have bought it a» an anticipated wedding gift for Lil lian. George's remarks about his tastes for amateur farming brought iny pur chase at once to mind, and the idea that in your hands it might la* made a most delightful and lucrative arrangement Hashed upon me like inspiration.” “Hurrab! Here's a chance for our amateur farmer and horticulturist,” <^ied Ralph. “A second Daniel! Oh. wise youug man. how I do thauk yon! Any chance for me, eh?” “Yes, mocker,” said Eustace, laugh ing heartily. “1 was going to offer you a place as plowboy. You could manage to ride a sober farm horse, couldn’t yon? And now, Mr. Newton, if this place can be made of use to you. will you not give me the opportunity of placing it in your hand», leaving you to arrange all the preliminaries to your own satisfaction, only stipulating that you will not make a bnsiness arrangement of it between us as with a stranger, but give me my place as a son in the matter." , Again the parents' eyes met. and this time there was no mistaking the mean | ing that long, earnest look revealed. Pride in the filial affection of one they liad so long loved, ami intense satisfac- tioq that each day's development of his noble nature gave increasing assurance of their daughter's happiness. Lillian's afwoying smile was ample delight for her lover. Ralph was longing to banish th* momentary silence by some waggish remark when his father said: “I wish. Enstace, yon could realize truly we regard you as a eon. But bttp:» I reveal your mother s thoughts <Bd wishes and my own. or reply at all It might be thought that the inhabi tants of a land held so precariously, who have to .otter a constant and unre laxing resistance to the rapacity of the sea, would be content to do this suc cessfully, satisfied to retain their own. The struggle is, however, vigorously carried into the aggressor’s camp. Day by day, and foot by foot, the lost acres are being rewon. Since the thirteenth cetrtury in East Friesland alone, about five hundred square miles have at one time or another been torn away by the storm and Hood. On the other hand 300 square miles of cultivable soil have been added to this province, nnd this new land is, by the nature of its con stituent elements, the most fertile in the country, says Chambers'» Journal. The composition of the new soil and the processes of its formation and de posit are subjects upon which there are differences of opinion, but the most generally accepted theory is that cin- bodied below. Twice a day the tide visits the coast and at each visit leaves behind it a deposit of solid matter which settles on the foreshore. This substance is, according to one writer, the product of the meeting and mixing of the fresh water coming from the land through which the “Siele” or locks which drain the ground with the salt water of the North Sea. Analysis of the latter shows—owing, it is sur mised, to the existence of submarine liedsof clay, ealeerousearth, etc., in the vicinity of the coast—an abnormal of solid constituents. The deposit, how ever created, is extremely rich. It occurs most plentifully round about the mouth of rivers and canals and on those parts of the shore where vegetation is found, lieing caught and retained by t lie stems and branches of the plants. The efforts of the inhabi tants are directed toward increasing tlie amount of this deposit, or rather toward retaining the greatest ]>ossible quantity of it. With this object par allel rows of stakes are driven into the foreshore outside and running out at right angles to the existing dike. These stakes are connected and bound together by willow branches and twigs tli»-. whole forming an immense silt trap which catches ami keeps the tides deposits. Day by day, inch by Inch, this ma terial is increased and solidifies until It raises itself to the level of the tide. Af ter a time a straggliug vegetation ap- ears, and when the entire surface reaches this condition aud its extent warrants th« expenditure, it is enclos ed by a dike ami another piece of land is added to the balance in favor of man. Another method largely prac tice«! Is that of digging long trenches parallel to the shore, into w hich the deposit falls, to be subsequently shov eled landward. be consults the catalogue, writes the name on a slip of paper, deposits the slip in a basket aud resumes his seat. Ten or fifteen minutes afterward an at tendant places the book on his desk. And what a vast store of books are at his disposal. People often ask how many there are in the British museum, but nobody seems to know. In fact, there are so many that it is impossible to count them. Some years ago it was estimated by measurement that there were2,000,080 books there. Since that estimate was made the number has considerably increased. Under the Copyright Acts publishers are bound to send to the museum every book, pamphlet, periodical or newspa per that Is oflered for sale in the British Isles. Every week an enormous shoal of literature is poured into tlie vaults of the museum, and strange to say it nev er comes out again. Books good and bad, newspapers worthy and worthless, pamphlets poor and paltry, all hurry along In a ceaseless stream to the mu seum, to be most religiously preserved in its cavernous depths. In addition a large number of books are added each year. Parliament glM^s a sum of money each year for the pur chase of desirable books that are not al ready in stock. Then, extensive gifts of books arc often made by enterprising collectors. The Greenville library, containing upwards of 20,000 volumes, is a notable example. It was built up there by the Right Hon. Thomas Greenville, and consisted chiefly of the rarest editions and the finest examples of binding which money could buy. The magnificent library of George III is another instance of the way in which the museum library has been stocked by generous donors. The li brary contains upward of (>>,000 vol umes and 8,000 pamphlets, and is plac ed in a tine gallery known as the Kings library. The catalogue of this stupendous li brary Is a colossal afTair. It is a library in Itself. Until its contents were eom- preessed by printing the catalogue con sisted of 2,200 folio volumes, each vol ume seventeen inches by twelve inches in size and about two Inches thick. Al together the catalogue weighedflve tons. The gigantic task of re-editing and printing this manuscript catalogue Is now in progress, ami it is computed that the work will not be completed for another five or eight years. No less than five volumes are filled with tlie list of books which have been written by the Smiths of the world. The word “Bible” is another important heading, occupying no less than twen ty-one volumes. This will give a faint idea of the large collection of bibles aud portions of the scriptures which the British museum possesses. Mile«' Nervine for Nervous Prostration.
