.Betsey: Monroe, Mich.
According to data, you are a mixture
of the signs of Taurus and Gemini, and
therefore Venus and Mercury are your
ruling planets or significators. You are
medium height or above, and medium
to dark hair, complexion and eyes; the
eyes have a peculiar sparkle and
sharp light; you are energetic and am
bitious and will make a great effort
to rise in the world, yet you will find
many obstacles to overcome and will
not be appreciated or paid in accord
ance with what your ability should
command, yet you will succeed far
better than the average of people. You
are a natural born orator and if you
take ordinary care of the money you
get into your possession you will be
come wealthy.
C. A. J„ Webster City, Iowa.
According to data, the sign Leo,
which the Sun rules, was rising at your
birth, with Mercury and Venus on the
ascendant, and therefore the Sun, Ve
nus and Mercury are your ruling plan
ets or significators.
You are medium height or above;
medium to light complexion, hair and
eyes; you will be disposed to baldness
early in life; you will be active, ambi
tious, energetic, and will hold a good
f position in any locality; you will always
| be regarded as a leading man not so
VBMich from your wealth as from your
ability. You will also be noted as hav
ing a great gift of language and as an
orator you would make a great suc
cess. You are very popular with the
ladies.
W. A. W., Dubuque. Iowa.
You have the zodiacal sign Virgo ris
ing and therefore Mercury is your rul
ing planet. You are medium height or
slightly above with a well proportioned
figure; the complexion, hair and eyes
from medium to dark; you are rather
reserved in your manner until you get
well acquainted. When young you
were quite bashful, modest and avoided
strangers. You are active, energetic,
ambitious and industrious; you are
very humane in your nature, kind to
all, make many friends, and will be
very popular with the ladies; you are
gifted In one of the fine arts and very
fond of any kind of art work; you have
good command of language. You will
rise to a high position in life, and if
you avoid hazardous speculation and
take good care of the money that comes
into your possession you will become
quite wealthy. It will be hard for you
to keep money after you make it.
Gertrude, St. Joseph, Mo.
You have the zodiacal sign Cancer
rising, therefore the moon is your rul
ing planet; you are medium height or
above, with rather well proportioned
figure; the shoulders good width, the
complexion fair; eyes light; hair me
dium; you are fond of making changes
in certain ways, and will be rather of
an emotional nature, and will some
times change your mind very quickly
and apparently without any good rea
sons for it. Your constitution is not of
a robust kind, and you are subject to
feverish ailments and especially severe
headaches when these attacks come
on. You are fond of having your own
way and are liable to rebel if opposed
strongly. You are endowed by nature
with strong intuitions, and might easily
develop some mediumistic powers if
you would make some effort in that
direction.

ILL you have the
kindness to ring

Harriet, and in
quire whether Mrs.

convalescent. “It is
after six o'clock,
and I am faint for
want of nourish
ment.”
dependent obeyed, then
slipped from the room to push inves
tigations upon a plan of her own. In
a quarter of an hour she reappeared
with an agitated, yet important counte
nance, that arrested her cousin's re
gards.
“What is it? Where is she?” he de
manded, impatiently. “You have heard
I something. Tell me at once what it
; is?”
11 Harriet collapsed as gracefully as ner
unpliant sinews and stays would allow
into a kneeling heap upon the floor at
his feet. "My beloved cousin! My dear,
deceived angel! I have heard nothing
that surprised me. I dared not speak
of it to you before now, agonizing as
was my solicitude. You would have
driven me from you in anger had I
whispered a word of what has been the
town gossip for months, to which you
only were blinded by your noble, your
generous, your superhuman confidence
in your betrayers. I see that you are
partially prepared for the blow,” as he
grew pale and tried without success
to interrupt her. “Brace yourself for
what you must know, my poor, ill used
darling! Your brother and your wife
have eloped to Europe in company!”
For one second the husband stagger
ed under the shock. His eyes closed
suddenly, as at a flash of lightning,
and his features were distorted, as in
a wrench of mortal pain. Then all that
was true and dignified in the man ral
lied to repel the Insult to the two he
had trusted and loved. “I do not be
lieve it,” he said distinctly and with
deliberate emphasis. "You are the dupe
of some mischievous slanderer, my good
woman. Edward Withers is the soul
of integrity, and my wife’s virtue is
incorruptible. Who told you this ab
surd tale?”
“Mrs Withers stated to you that she
was going to drive alone this after
noon, did she not?” Harriet forget the
pathetic in the malicious triumph as
she proceeded to prove her rival’s guilt.
"You heard her say It,” laconically,
and still on the defensive.
“Yet John says she called by the of
fice to take up Mr. Edward Withers,
and that they drove in company to
the wharf, where lay an ocean steam
er. He saw them go on board, arm in
arm, and, although he waited on the
pier as long as the vessel was in sight,
they did not return.”
“I will see the man myself.”
Crossing the room with a firmer step
than had been his since his illness. Mr.
Withers rang the bell and summoned
the coachman. His evidence tallied ex
actly with Harriet’s report, and she flat
tered herself that the inquisitor’s man
ner was a shade less confident when the
witness was dismissed.
"You have said that this disappear
ance was no matter of surprise to you.
and added something about vulgar gos
sip. I wish a full explanation,” he said,
still magisterially.
Thus bidden, Harriet told her tale.
Before their return to the city in the
autumn, she had seasons of anxiety
relative to the intimacy between Mr.
Edward Withers and his beautiful sis
ter-in-law. Not, the unsuspecting vir
gin was careful to affirm, that she
doubted then the good faith and right
intentions of either, but she feared lest
Mrs. Withers’ partiality for the younger
brother might render her negligent of
her husband’s- happiness and comfort.
The winter festivities had brought the
two into a peculiarly unfortunate po
sition for the growth of domestic vir
tues, and eminently conducive to the
progress of the fatal attachment which
was now beyond the possibility of a
doubt. Although one of the family,
and known to be wedded to their in
terests, she had not been able to deter
busy-bodies from sly and overt mention
of the scandal in her hearing. She had,
on such occasions, taken the liberty of
rebuking the offender, and maintain
ing, In her humble way, the honor of
her benefactors’ name. But she could
not silence a city full of tongues, and
ithey had wagged fast and loudly of
jthe husband’s indiscreet confidence In
jthe guilty parties, and their .shameless
treachery.
He checked her when she would have
dilated upon this division of her sub
ject. "I will have no hearsay evidence.
What have you seen?”
Harriet demurred, blushingly, not, as
It presently appeared, because she had
seen so little but so much. Duets,
vocal and Instrumental, had been the
vehicles of living intercourse—hand
squeezing, meaning sighs and whispers.
Her blood had often boiled furiously
In beholding the outrageous maneuv
ers practiced in the very sight of their
trusting victim. Her eyes, in passing
from their smiles of evil Import, their
langulshlngs and caresses to the serene
face bent over the chess-board, or
wrapt in innocent slumber, had alter
nately overflowed with tears and glow
ed with Indignation.
"But all this was as nothing com
fpared with my sensations on the morn
ilng of the day in which you made your
[will. Chancing to enter your drese
ing-room, on my way to your bedside,
I surprised Mrs. Withers and Mr. Eld
ward Withers standing together, her
head upon his bosom, his arms uphold
ing her, while he whispered loving
I worus in ner ear. He kissed tier at
the very moment of my silent entrance,
with this remark: ‘We have too much
to live and to hope for, to nurse un
healthy surmises and fears.’ I could
testify to the language in a court of
justice, and am positive that his ref
erence was to your passible recovery.”
“No more!” The mischief-maker was
scared out of her gloomy exultation by
the altered face turned toward her.
“Please excuse me from going down,
to dinner today. I am very weary, and
shall spend the evening alone,” pur
sued Mr. Withers, with a pitiful show
of his old and pompous style. He arose
as a further signal that she must go,
when she threw herself before him
and clasped his knees.
“Elnathan!” the beady eyes strained
in excruciating appeal, “do not banish
me from you in this your extremity!
Who! Who should be near you to sus
tain and weep with you but your poor
devoted Harriet—she whose life has
but one end—the hope that she might
serve and aid you; but one reward,
your smile, and so much of your love
as you may see fit to bestow upon so
worthless an object?”

the listener’s proud spirit to break
ing, her factitious transports met no
response beyond weary impatience. The
cajolery that had flattered the unworthy
complacency of his prosperous days
rang discordantly upon his present j
mood. He wanted pity from no one,
he said to himself, and, in his rejection
of hers, there was a touch of resent
ment, the consequence of her unspar
ing denunciation of Constance. He
might come to hate her himself soon.
Just now he almost abhorred the one
who had opened his eyes to his own
shame. “You mean well, I dare say,
Harriet,” he said, in his harshest tone,
"but you are Injudicious, and your of
fers of sympathy are unwelcome. I
am sure that I shall shortly receive a
satisfactory explanation of this mys
terious affair. As to your gossiping
friends, I can only regret that your
associates have not been chosen more
wisely. Now you can go.”
She made no further resistance, but
hers was one of the chamber doors
that unclosed stealthily when, at mid
night, the rattle of a latch-key sound
ed through the front hall, and was fol
lowed by the entrance of the two sup
posed voyagers. There were more
wakeful eyes under that roof that
night than the master recked of, and
a bevy of curious gazers peered from
the obscurity of the third story into
the entry, where Mr. Withers had or
dered the gas to be kept burning all
night.
“You see we are expected,” said Ed
ward to his companion.
Mr. Withers met them at the head
of the staircase, clad in dressing-gown
and slippers. “Ah, here you are. How
did you get back?”
“The obliging captain hailed a fish
ing yacht and put us on board,”
answered his brother. “Have you been
uneasy about us?”
“Only lest you might be carried
Borne distance out before you fell in
with a returning vessel. You look very
tired, Constance. I shall not let her
go with you again, Edward, unless
you promise to take better care of her.”
“Tell him just how it happened,
Connie,” laughed Edward, and the con
ference was over.
“They played their parts well all of
them,” muttered Harriet, stealing back
to her sleepless pillow. “But they need
not hope to gag people now that the
scandal has taken wind; ‘murder will
out.’ ”

pearance in the next day’s issue of an
extensively circulated journal of a con
spicious article headed "Scandal in
High Life!” setting forth the elope
ment, per steamer to Europe, of the
junior partner in a well-known bank
ing house with the beautiful wife of
his brother, the senior partner of the
aforesaid firm. The intimacy of the
fugitives, the chronicle went on to
say, had been much talked of all win
ter in the brilliant circle to which
they belonged. The deserted husband
was a citizen whom all delighted to
honor for his business talents, his
probity in public life, and his private
virtues. "This affliction falls upon
him with the more crushing severity
from the circumstance that he has
been for some months an invalid. He
has the sincere sympathy of the entire
community.”
The editor of the humane sheet, al
beit not unused to eating his own
words, never penned a more humble
and explicit retraction of the “unlucky
error into which, through no fault of
ours, we have fallen,” than graced his
columns the following morning. He
could hardly have expressed himself
more forcibly had Edward Withers
really horsewhipped him, instead of
threatening to do it, and to bring an
action for libel as well.
Constance breakfasted in bed, at her
husband’s request, on the day succeed
ing the Pynsents’ departure. The pop
ular daily, above referred to, lay as
usual by Mr. Withers' plate when he
went down-stairs, folded with what
was known to its constant readers as
the naughty corner outermost. Har
riet was engaged in concocting her
cousin’s cup of foaming chocolate
when he opened his sheet, but she both
saw and heard the paper rustle like a
paper bough before a storm, then
grow suddenly and unnaturally still.
When Mr. Withers lowered it there was
nothing in voice or expression to be
tray to his brother that ought was
amiss. When the meal was over he
repaired to his wife’s room, taking'
with him the newspaper which he bad
not, as was his custom, offered to pass
to Edward.
Without a word he spread It before
the pale woman whose haggard coun
tenance should have moved him to de
lay her accusation and atence. One
swift glance took in the import of the
cruel article, and she buried her face
In the piilow with a cry that destroyed
what faint remnant of hope might
have lingered in his bosom. “My sin
has found me out!”
^ A heavy hand was laid upon her arm.
1 This is childish, Constance, and you
have shown yourself to be no child
in craft. Nothing short of your own
confession would have persuaded me
that much contained in this paragraph
is true, that you have abused my con
fidence, sullied my name, and made
me the object of universal contempt—
you and—and—my brother!”

Tame Catamount.
Probably it is true that some men
have by nature a peculiar power over
wild animals, and it Is a matter of com
mon experience that animals sometimes
strike up sudden friendships with per
sons they have never seen before. An
extreme instance of this kind Is de
scribed by a military correspondent of
the New York Sun; "Perhaps of all the
wild animals that may be at least par
tially civilized or tamed, the Rocky
Mountain lion or catamount offers the
least promise; and yet in the writer’s
experience one specimen was as gentle
and docile as human kindness could
make him.. He followed his master
around like a dog, obeying every wish
or nod, but would allow no other per
sons to approach him with offers of
kindness or anything else. This crea
ture was a full grown mountain lion,
that for some strange reason had taken
a fancy to a Cheyenne Indian. Wheth
er in camp, on the prairie, or in the
post, the brute could always be seen
quietly following the Indian, but he
would never leave his master’s heels
for any reason except at his master's
bidding. Often would he accompany
the buck into the post trader’s store,
where his entrance was the signal for
all dogs to get out and for bipeds not
acquainted with the situation to lose
no time in taking to the counters. The
officers of the post finally persuaded
the Indian to part with his pet for a
consideration, and the lion, after being
securely caged, was shipped as a pres
ent to the National Museum at Wash
ington.’’
The Wisdom of the Crow*
A naturalist who Is much lnteresteu
In birds says that the crow Is the wis
est of all feathered animals. He has
made a number of experiments recent
ly, and declares that an ordinarily well
educated crow can count to twenty, and
that he has found a sentinel crow, very
old and very wise, that can count to
twenty-six. He made these discoveries
in a very interesting way. Recently
he spent some time in the mountains
of Wales, where a company of boys
was camping out. One day he found
a flock of crows gathered round t.he
body of a sheep that had died, and
which lay near a barn. They flew
away as he approached, so he hid him
self in the barn and waited; but they
would not come back. Then he went
out and walked up the mountain, and
they all settled down again to the feast.
That afternoon he took four boys from
the camp with him and they marched
into the little building and waited. No
crows came back. Two of the boya
went out. Still no crows. Then the
other two went out, and only the natu
ralist remained. But the old sentinel
crow had evidently counted them as
they went in, and he knew they had
not all come out. At last the natural
ist left the building and straightway
all the crows returned. This experi
ment was repeated a number of timeis
with varying numbers of boys, but the
crows kept count, and would not come
down until the building was entirely
empty.
