From the train It rises Interview , n restful-looking building with pyramidal towers , all painted n taint rose color , the monotony whereof. Is relieved by darker shades on door Jambs nnd window frames nnd by the green screens. All around the building runs a broad nnd ample veranda , where people sit and walk children plav. There Is n Ono lawn , inter sected with devious ways and planted with beds of llowors pf nil shapes and hues , stars , crescents , circles , rhomboids , and most boau- ttful of all , n whole canoe full to overflowing of scarlet geraniums.

Tbo beach Is a paradise for iho children ; they dabble In the water and scream to their hearts' content and nobody says "don't" to them , and our little Omaha lads and lassos ara in ovorvthlng , you may bo sure.

"Tools Itnxli in" to Mutiipli.vftlcsVliuro Four to Trend , " A lady , wife of a gentleman In an influential position , says the Brandon VI , Banner , chanced to moot at a party one night a parson who had a great re putation as an amaluer soothsayer. "Oh , just toll mo my fortune , " she said , jocularly. "I'd rather not , " replied the fortune teller , after looking steadfastly at her for a little time ; "I'd rather not it would disconcert you terribly. " The lady urged her request neverthe less. less."Then "Then , " the soothsayer continued , "I'm sorry to toll you that I am afraid that in throe months you will bo a widow , and that in six months you will bo mad. " The lady told her husband , who soon fell ill and died , while the other part of the prophecy was to some extent ver ified. I have called this incident peculiar , but there is in it , at any rate , some di rect connection between the cause und the effect. Tlio man during his illness would certainly bo depressed' by the prophecy that ho could not recover , nnd tlio same fact would alToct his wifo. Imagination , which.is more potent than medicine , was sot to work against tlio couple. That not only explains n mys tery in aonio degree , but it illustrates the need for imaginative people to bo careful how they handle occult subjects. JtiilKu Wiixiim'it 1'ollilvitl Trover ! .

Ho lived in good style In a Imndsomo bouso , and Muttie was generally under stood to bo as wall oil In money mutters as she was attractive In parson and win ning in mannord. She visited in the most fashionable circles and was rather noted for her pretty tollots and the number of her beaux. Mattlohad , however , made her choice. Unreservedly she had given her aiToc- lions to Mark Taylor , a young man of no particular family , but of ban dsomo exterior tind fair business prospects. Mnny , indeed , wondered at the major sanctioning the match ; but there are always reasons within reasons , nnd the poor father had his private motives for forwarding1 the views of the man who scorned most in earnest about marrvlng Matlio. But before Mattio's pretty wardrobe was linished , and while the lovers wore yet undecided as to whether the wed ding was to bo n nubile or a private ono , Major Dai-ley was found dead In ocd ono morning , and the house of pleasant an ticipations became a house of mourning. This was but the beginning of Mattlo's troubles. Vague but terrible rumors of sulclao and ruin began to bo heard , nnd Mattie , even in the first gush of sympa thy for her desolate condition , could fool that indefinable something which expressed - pressed disapprobation as well as pity ; and after the funeral was over she was quito sensible that her acquaintances aud friends wore ready to stand aloof from her at the Hrst good opportunity. The world , upon iho whole , is not flagrantly unjust ; it thought it had good reason for its disapprobation. Major Darloy had done wrong ; ho had squan dered money not his own ; and poverty nnd dishonor it refuses to sanction. In the main it is right. And when JSIaltio know till and know also that it was gen erally bnliovod that her father had slunk Into the grave because ho was afrnia to face t.ho wrong ho hud done , she did not much blame the world. She know It must judge men and women on general rules. But she did blame Mark , for ho had no such excuse. IIo.jb.nd made particu lar promises to her and her ulono. But when misfortune dpps not strengthen love it kills it ; nnd before Major Darloy was in his grave Murk's bohilvior had lost something of Us respect , and ho soon became quoruloui and inattentive. Mattie did not hesitate long. In a low dignified lines she gave him his dis missal , and it was cooly accepted , with n very unmanly and'ungenerous reflec tion upon the ( load , i Then the poor girl began seriously to consider her future. ' * There was absolutely - lutoly nothing for hoWbut the furniture of the house in whioh'sho lived , and the half-and-half Invitations which she had received from her two'iiunts to make liar homo for.a . time wltlMhoni. Ono had a largo 'family and'.Hvod ' in a pretty Jersey Village ; the otH'qi ' : was. Qgj invalid " nnd traveled.a groat.donl. / , , r She sold the furniture at auction , paid out of it her father's ; June-nil expenses and found that she hud about $1,000 loft. Upon the whole , the invalid aunt Boctned the most dosirnblo , and she ac cepted her invitation Hrst. It was the beginning of Rummer , and Mrs. Dayton was going to Europe "for her health. " Mattto was to go with her , but it was not-untll' everything win arranged that Mattie found she was expected to pay her own passage. She drew $400 and wont to sea with n heavy heart. The next six months were a simple record of an imaginary Invalid's whims and unreasonable tyranny ; and Mattie took under these circumstances her flrst lessons ip that knowledge which teaches "How salt tbo savor Is of others' Dread 1 How hard tbo pasiaso to doscoud and climb By others' stairs I" „ . And in spite of all Mattio's efforts and humiliation , she did not please. Mrs. Dayton nnd her niece parted at last on very bad terms. She had still $000 , and she found herself - self , ono morning in Juno , in n Now York boarding house , asking her heart twenty times an hour : "What shall I do with iti" ' Ono morning she lifted a paper and eagerly ran her eyes over the "Wants. " This paragraph supplied her with the idea on which rested a very prosperous fortune : Wanted A tUorouRhly artistic , profes sional cook. A liberal salary given and two assistants allowed. Apply , otu. Now , if there was ono thine1 for which. Mattiu had n natural aptitude , it was the making of delicacies nnd the beautiful arrangement of a table. "Why should I not learn how to do , this thing ? " she said. "This very dav I will see about it. " She had to inuko many n fruitless walk and to boar a good deal of imperti nent curiosity before nho found what she wanted a professional cook , willing to Improve the sccrots of his art for an equivalent in cash. Even then ho could not take her until the winter season made grand dinners in demand , and Mattie was forced to content herself with an engagement to the great artist in the following Octo ber. ber.Did Did she llvo on her small moans in the interval ? She took a situation as sales woman in n retail store , and immediately began to sell triinmli / nnd laces. Not unfroquontly she had wait on ludlos at whoso houses alH ( had visited and with whom she hau f spent the morning shopping ml lghteon months boforo. Sorno ignd the fact nnd treated her as a simple shop-girl , and seine spoke to hdr in- , Unit tone of con strained kindness stilt harder to boar. Others whispered tovjhoir companions , as they passed , her nUnio nnd rovorbOb ; but , after all , eho wl ? amazed to 11 nd how little those thlngH iurt her. Still she was honestly glad ono morn ing to receive a note from Prof. Doluco , requesting her eorvU-ou. In a plain , neat dross , with her laruoLnpron nnd linen sleeves In her satui.ul , she entered at daylight ono of the principal ho tola nnd took her way roaolutuly to the pro fessor's rooms. Ho Bother to work with a very few words , arid day nftor day , week after week , she assisted him in the production of the most wonderful dinners and suppers. When the winter was over the pro fessor was willing to .endorse Ills pupil in all things , and ho olTorod to secure- her n position for the summer months. Mnttio very gratefully accepted his of fer , and in a few days ho was able to rnako an engagement for her at a fash ionable summer hotel , She was to have $1,000 for the Houson and two assistants. For flvo years Mattie spent her sum mers at this hotel , and her winters with seine private family , making about 81,600 iv year and saving nearly every dollar of it. For oho hud in vlow the opening of a largo private hotel , and she know that in order to got the neces sary funds she must horsolfbo willing to risk a respectable sum. So slio was patient nnd industrious , and the day on which she was SO years of ago saw her the mistress of n magnificently furnished mansion , eVery room of which hnd boon taken before it was oponod. For by this tlmo Mattlo's skill was well known to wealthy epi cures , nnd it was considered something of a privilege to sit at iv table she pro vided for or llvo In a house she ordered. But though obliged now to dross as becomes the lady of such n house , she never relaxed her patient attention to the smallest details of her duty , nnd her boarders know that the elegantly dressed woman who presided at the table had boon hours before in a linen blouse and a cap busy among her bright saucepans for their bonollt and enjoyment , and the knowledge detruded nothing from the respect and admiration everyone de lighted to give hor. In three .years Mattie had paid off the last conl of the money slip-had bor rowed in order to start , her enterprise , and thenceforward she began to make money and save money for Mattio' D.irloy alono. She was still handsome and had many admirers , but she was of that order of women who love once and no more , nnd many things about Mark's desertion of her had loft n sting in her heart which no future love could extract She did not know whether ho remembered - bored her or not ; she had hoard , while In Europe , that ho was going to marry an old companion of hers , but that was twelve years ago , nnd twelve yours rolled in between two lives generally olToctually sonarato thorn. When she was ! 0 years of ago and a rich woman she liadnnolTorof innrrlago. She refused It , but the circumstances sot her thinking about Marie In a very persistent manner. She determined to make some cautious inquiries about him ; she was too old now for him to attribute any silly motive to hor. The resolution ran in her mind for two or three days , and she determined ono afternoon to go and find out an old friend likely to bo familar with Mark's doings. .But while she was dressing an English nobleman came to rent a suite of rooms nnd was so full of crotchets and orders that she thought it best to remain in the houso. Ho was very peculiar and Insisted upon having all his meals in his own room , but as ho paid extravagantly for the privilago and kept his own servant to attend upon him , Mattie thought It worth her while to humor so good a truest. She soon found , however , this strange servant a very uneasy element in her kitchen affairs. In a week her own maids were at onon war with him ; nnd she hoard so much about his delightful singing and elegant manners Unit her curiosity was somewhat excited. Ono morning , as she was coming down stairs , drosbod to go out , she saw the wine col ored livery of my lord's servant coming toward her with a tray containing doll- cacles for his master's breakfast. As they passed each other Mattie looked steadily into thu man's face nnd saw Marie Taylor. Ho recognized her iu the same moment - mont , but .vith the instinct of a little mind pretended not to know her. After his stare and silence there was nothing loft for M ittio to say. She had boon going to see him and lo , even as a sor- -vnnt ho would not know hor. The next day the servant's parlor was dosolato. Mark had loft my lord's sorvico. It might bo four yours after this event that Mattie ono bitter , snowy day ro- colvod n letter which greatly agitated hor. She was a very wealthy woman now , and though she still kept her hotel she also kept her private carriage. After half an hour's troubled and uncer tain thought , she ordered it , and greatly to the amazement of her servant re quested to bo driven to a very disreput able part of the city. It was hard for the vehicle to make its way to the wretched tenement she indicated , and Mattio's heart sunk at the fllthy , slushy court , and dark , nolsomo stairs before hor. hor.I might say that love made her re gardless of those things , but that would not bo truo. There WUH no love in Mat tio's heart now for Mark Taylor , but his note had said ho was dying , and she had not found herself able to refuse his last request. Indeed , she had doubted him now , for during the past two years ho had bogged money from her , under every possible pretext ; nnd there was now more fear and contempt In her pity for her old lever than any lingering trace of alToction. But this time ho had told the truth. Muttlo barely got there in time to hour his last words a pathetic entreaty for a half-starved little lad sobbing his poor childish heart out for his dying father. The child loved Mark that almost redeemed - doomed Mark In Mattio's oyos. She promised faithfully to bring up the boy as her own , nnd she kissed and forgave at the last the poor , weak , hoaitloss man. After the miserably sottish failure of his life , it was something to die with his child in his arras and the woman who had once loved him so dearly drop ping tears upon his face and praying humbly for his peace. So Mattie buried Mark nnd took to her homo Mark's little Koland. At flrst it was not altogether n pleasure. The love for other people's children Is not an instinct But Itoland had a hand some person and bright , bold manners. Ho won his \\-ay surely and rapidly , and Mattie , in his case , made true the sar casm of a proverb , for this "old maid's bairn was well taught nnd well bred. " About live venra after Mark's death Mattie sold her business and bought'tho loveliest of lovely farms. She came to the country with the intention of taking life easy and enjoying the fruits of her twenty years of hard though pleasant labor. But Mnttio , can't help making money , and her berries and vines , her milk and butter and grains are tl-o wonder of the country. When anyone In our little community Is sick or blue or tired , wo go to see Mattie ; when the church or the Sunday sahool wants a AMUSEiMEiNTS. NEW I THKBB THEATRE , Commencing Sunday , August 21.

A Wonderful Munition luvuntnil l > f n Clu- clnnitlnii. A wonderful machine , which is destined - tined to revolutionize the manufacture of tin , shoot iron and brass hollowvaro , has been developed and matured by a Cincinnati man , after three years of constant study and labor without anyone ono dreaming" the inlluonco whion this invention will exert on this Im mense industry. Much has boon said and written of late , says the Cincinnati Commercial , with regard to the manu facture of American tin nnd the relative cost of production of any article of everyday nouso- liuld use in this line , nnd tlio fact remains that at present the only reason of tlio increased cost of produc tion of manufactured tinware is that the work , as done by hand , as it in at pres ent , by spinning joints and rims of such articles as cups , pails , packing cans , otc. , requiio a higher standard of wages than those paid in England , where the strongest com potion comes from. But the advent of this machine , the work of J. U Paddoclc , of this city , into the field will , according to the inventor , knock down all the barrlors raised by English competition , and lesson the cost of pro duction of tinware over ono-hiilf. Up to about three years ago Mr. Pad dock was a partner in the business of J. M. Hobinson & Co. , in the manufacture of dies and presses for sheet motnl work ing , and by his long service and great experience in this especial business bo- cnmo an export in the making and de signing of a ton in presses. During the close of his connection with the firm lie became earnestly interested in the scheme of cheapening American manu factured tin plate , and as his line of business was in direct harmony with the movement ho sot his brains to work to study out a scheme whereby the cost of manufacturing household arti cles could bo materially reduced. His Hrst thought was to perfect a diojor shaping , edging and seaming the blank pieces of tin at ono stroke of a press , thus turn ing out a complete utensil at every stroke of the machine. His first exper iments were made with defective ma to rial , and were naturally discoura ging but by calculating the pressure used antl the relative resistance used in the dies , ho nt last succeeded in making thorn1 td his satisfactionalthough ntthat time ho could only join the II it plecoi of tin together , hut the 3olnt was made so nearly perfect and HO practicably Indestructible - destructible that it clearly showed to this anxious mind the great possibilities of his scheme. So lie at once sot to work to construct a press that would bo capable of taking blank pieces of tin , aud at one stroke of the die form a complete hollow vessel. Ho wont to Bridgeport , N. J. , to thu works of the Farivcuto Press eompiny , and there spent over a yo.ir in the build" ing and porfocllngof his machinewhich was llnallv accomplished , a few wooua ago , and tlio mauhino shipped to Cin cinnati , where it now lies at the works of the Standard Hadtal Drill company , in Covlngton. The maohlii" Is of the upright , pattern , nnd stands about seven feet six inches high. The work is Jlrst laid on a table , which travels with each stroke from under the die to the opera tor , so as to facilitate the putting in and taking out of work. As soon ni the work is placed on tl\a table and the lever pressed U > start tha nuichlno in motion two stool Jaws closu upon it Irom each aide to support it in place nnd preserve the shape ot tha utensil , and as soon as the jaws close thu upper die driven by a crank and a cam connected with the My wheel descends and in a second's time completes a ves sel that would r'oqulro nearly an hour's work by a good tinner. Tlio pressure is iiutouuUeally withdrawn by Iho cam and as the die raises the Bide jaws unlocktho tiblo swings outward and thu operator removes the produbtas another iniui places more im'.torlul on the tible , and the machine once moro performs Its almost luuniin duty perfectly. The ma chine is capable of mvtrly twenty pres sures a minute , thu.i doing in a minute's time that which would "Vcqulro a man's tlmo nearly half a day. Any kind of plinblo metal cnn bo used in the machine , nnd anything of any shape whatsoever cnn in a moment's time ho transformed from a blank piece of metal into a perfect utensil , ready without any soldering whatsoever for immodlato use , and by the system ol curling and joining used by the monster , leakage is impossible , as after the pres sure of the die is removed the joint is HO powerfully wcdgod together by simply curling that it is practically ono piece and cannot bo torn apart. Iiloulorn rittont ( irnvu-.Miulccr. Tlio expense ot a funeral in a .largo city has grown to such proportions that the average mancommits , moro extrava gance in the act of dying than ho over did during llfo. It is suggested by the Philadelphia I lorn that a much loss costly form of gravestone than that us ually eroded would mcatall the require- inon'ts of ailoctionato remembrance and respect , nnd the suggestion has boon carried into oiTect in tlio patenting o ( "a gravo. marker. " Tills is simply a me morial loaf. It consists of two outer plates bent so as to form a holder for loaves or tablets , adapted to bo suspend- ou fem a frame to receive and retain objects desired to bo kept as mementoes of tlio deceased. Tha tablets beneath tho.outor plates can bo designed in any dostrod form , and as they have sides of mica or transparent material to protect the tokens , any object , such as photo graphs , sketches , otc. , can bo inserted : For instance , a sketch of the llfo of tlto departed or a lock ot hair can bo placed in the receptacle , where it is securely protoetod from the weather , and , ns it is covered with mica , it will last for many years without bleaching or de caying. It is astonishing how those war widows cling to life , and how profuse are their numbers. There nro still over 8,00(1 ( widows of veterans of tlio war of 1813 on the rolls , notwithstanding the lapse of nearly three generations slnco the close of that interesting struggle.
