Ubby laughed bitterly.
"I was j.sLing for letters," paid the.
"There xvere none for me. I didn't much

"Luck;" Job looked at her in a per

"Nonsense!" retorted Lfbby.
"Your uncle gives you all the spend

"He gives me all I ask for." Libby an

little enough that is!"
"You're not discontented at living
with him?" v
"Not especially."
"because, Libby, if you don't like it

"Oh, Job, there comes Alice Mark

Job Lindley utood puzzled, in the
middle of the road, watching Libby 's
figure vanish against the yellow bar that
still marked the tKt where the sun had
gone down half an hour ago.

In the mean while Libby had joined
Alice M u khani. the young district school

"Alice," s:.i I she, "I've thought of
nothing else anil dreamed of nothing else
for a xveek. And it's strange so strange
that I never have received an answer to
any of the three communications!"
Jti.t then little Tommy, the youngest
hope of the house of Morse, came trot
ting across the sear meadows.
"Oh, look here. Lib!" said he. "The
storekeeper he's found a lot o' letters as
got hid away under the meal bugs, where
they was sol-tin" the mail on Thursday.

They were already inside the little

"Let us go upstairs to your room,

"I couldn't speak to any one just noxv,"
tho pleaded. "You'll keep my secret,
Alice won't you?"
Just there at the gate stood Job Lind
lev, a black shadoxv against the starlight.
""Libby!"
It xvns all that he said, but the one
xvoid xvas so full of devotion, allegiance,
tender appreciation, that Libby stopped
involuntarily.
It xvas a healing balm to her hurt
spirit and xvounded pride.
"1 xvas coming to ask you to go to
Sxvcipe's Corners xvith me to-night," said
he. "There's to be a concert there, and
but is anything the matter, Libby?
he asked, checking himself in mid-explanation.
"Yes, Jeb, 1 should like to go," said
Libbv. "It's very good of you to ask
inc."
"Iut you're in some sort of trouble,
Libbv!" exclaimed Job. "You've been
crying? Has your uncle teeu cross to
you? He-cause, Libby, you needn't stay
another day under his rof unh'ss ytu
choose. If you'll come to me and be my
wife, Libby, there's nothing yon need
ask for in vain. It may sound abrupt to
you. this love story of mine, but it's
been trembling on my lips every time
I've seen you for three months."
It xvas a strange, short xvooing, but
when they came into the noisy, cheerful
house room, Libby had promised to be
honest Job's xvift.
The failure of her fantastic ambitions
had luckily drixen her into the sure
haven of a good man's kwc.
"I have got my oxvn love story noxv,"
she said to Alice Markham. "Hetter

"And you are really happy at last?"
xv ist fully asked Miss Markham.
"Yes. dear Alice, I really am happy at

And her radiant face bore witness to
her xvords. Saturday Night.
A Horse S-.val'.ows a Hall of Twine.
A horse in a small toxvn near Norxvich,
Conn., xvhich is disjMised to swallow any
thing that comes within its reach, re
cently bolted a large ball of xvrappirg
twine. The ball rolled n easily, but a
knob at tho end of the cord anchored
itself xvindward between the animal's
front teeth, anil the knot ami the visible
piex-e of txvine served as a key to the
situation xvh en the young groomswoman
visited the stable anil inspected her steed.
There xvas a somexvhat troubled look on
the horse's face as he stood with feet
braced, ears lopped, mouth open, and in
his eyes xvas a mute appeal that be
tokeneel a growing suspicion that prob
ably the case was hopeless. The young
lady unloosed the knot, xvound six inches
of the cord around her hand and began
to unravel the mystery. The horsp kept
his mouth open, looked V. IoC-, and seemed
perfectly to understand what xvas going
on, and out, yard after yard, fathom by
fathom, the animal compliancy yielded
up his peculiar .'r.r.cr, and on neither
side of the manger xx-as a comment ut
tered, except that noxv and then the
grateful beast emjttce' a sigh as he ol
served the e;tei.al ball swelling in mag
nitude and felt the internal one steadily
diminishing. Finally the last yard of
cord xvas reeled out of the horse, wound
up and the ball taken ir.io the bouse,
xvhtre the animal couldn't get at it again.

Vesuvius has lately been very active.
It has been rapidly throxving up a nexy

yards to the south wes of the original

While St. Louis cannot boast of any
Turkish bath houses marked by Parisian
or even Ixwantino luxury and elegance
as to fittirgs and conveniences, bhe can
claim to hare a large contingent of fresh
looking, ha.'idsome women who give full
creilit to tlio beautifying influence of
regular Turkish baths. All tho public
Turkish baths have "Indies' Days," and
tho register of the leading establishment
yield.? on inspection a long list of names
of ladies prominent in society, in the
schools, in the churches in all tho 6ets
and circles of tho lody social of our city.

xvhere the spray soothingly falls on tho
just and the unjust alike, for most often,
too, sonio of their recalcitrant pupils
come in gay. noisy little shoals and make
the corridors ring xvith their laughter and
little screams of merriment.
The faith of many women in the vir
tues of tho Turkish bath is limitless.
Those xvho are tK thin Ixdiex'e that they
will attain the plumpness of their stand
ard of perfection by continuing the
baths. Those xvho groan xvith flesh think
the bathing and the rubbing will make
the burden roll axvay; those whose com
plexions are too pale or too sallow seek
there color and clearness. The pimpled

face pale in sooth, they think the Turk

youth and beauty. Women as ugly and

ZOVXVIXQ THE MAN ALARM.
The mother of nine children, whose
friends tell her sho "doesn't look a day
older" (than whom or xvhen?), comes reg
ularly, and says, "it's tho Turkish bath
does it." The phrase may bo a little
promiscuous, but it seems to be under
stood by her friends and felloxv bathers.
After her xvill come a beautiful matron
of ten years' standing, who never had
any children, and her acquaintances will
tell her she never looked so beautiful
and steng, and congratulate her on the
good times sho has going around tho
xvorld and having no children to keep
bar at home, and xxnnd up by saying sho
looks younger than ever, and she says, it
is all the Turkish bath.
