npmy to where InarlUn crouched at the tiller ,
almost punilyted l > y the imrrowncwj of tli
eticajie. "If you don't gut out of there , "
thundered tlnrelice , bin voice rising high
above the wind , "d nxnuifl don't throw
yon overboard. "
The Indict * Hcn'amcd ; but in the mtilat ol
her terror MiiH Kthelcould not btille u feeling
of admiration for ti inuii who nwore in tht
\-ery fsiff of death. Still uhe knew itvw very
wicked , mill hIio put her cheek dote to hei
mother'rt and cloMcd her eyes mill pnyed.
Ah for Mr. Ingram , he quitted the tiller Mil
leul.v , mid nut down opposite the ladien with
bin feet dangling in e glit inchcH of water.
Looking at him presently , Clurcnce iMHimne
convinced that the inuu wiih terrifieil beyond
all human understanding , and there uroce in
him a great bitterne * * of Hjiirit to think that
hia brave , lluxen-huircd dmling over theie
hail plnceil her nfTii'tioiiH on micli mi object.
To no fearful n put-8 did Mr. Ingrmn'H t4-rroi >
bring him that he preM-ntly lay down full
length upon the thwart. Iiih face covered with
hib hmnlH and bin occiudonnl groan mid ap-
i enln t < Heaven for mercy , the only Hound ?
lie con ' 1 utter.
For our long hours did Clarence , nssiHlftl
by -gallant Unlicr-youth. who woikcd with
nil 1 .i young might , do buttle with the an
gry watere. Iliri hat bad blown off , unit in
the gathering liaiknchH Kthel could h.j how
wmi mid tired and Iiojm'Ichk his facp looked.
The curly hair , about which hhe hud m ) often
joked him , lay in dump inu'-bcs on lii.s foie-
liend , and hIiu fairly ached to lisk ujisettiug
the darning by lejping np mid Miioothiug
down the matted locis with her white , noft
hand. Clarence utteu'd no word , kivc to as
sure the ladies that they bhould reach the
nhore Hiifely if it took all winter to do it.
Mre. Master's face was a study. Shekept her
amiH tightly about her beloved daughter
mid her glance wandered from time
to time fn.m the Htern. iniberable face
of the man at the helm to the now bilent , mo-
tionlecK form on the seat o [ posite. Mr. In-
gnim had cither fainted or fallen asleep.
Hud he been able to note the expression ol
the older lady's face as she glanced ut him he
would hardly have felt Mattered.
The shore was still a mile and a half ravny ,
mid darkness hud fairly settled down upon
the sea , when a rather strange thing hap
pened. On his List tack Clarence had
noticed the wind to h < > veering , mid now , to
his infinite joy , he felt it coming squarely
abeam. Further mid further it swung , until
almost deud astern ; mid once again the little
craft began her career over the waves under
a full pressure ol sail.
Ladies , " remurked Clarence , icily , "we are
enved. "
His tone did not encourage an extended re
sponse , and none was attempted ; but the
eyes of both ladies contained moisture for
which the spray was hardly responsible.
The novelty of again rushing headlong
through the water arous-ed Mr lugram. Ho
sat up suddenly , rublted his eyes and sur
veyed the situation. Helooked ahead , and as
they rose on the crest of a wave , perceived
lights twinkling along the shore.
"They're out looklngforus , "he said , with a
faint attempt at jauntinesss ' "Forbes , per
haps you'd better Jet mo take the tiller now ;
you must be u.miup. . "
Mr. Fori * * , hkcd > at him savagely and
rejoined , with great emphasis : "Lie down
again and stint up' "
Mr. Ingram disregarded the first mandate ,
but obeyed the second.
On ami on swept the little craft , tiding gal
lantly with her heavy load of water and hu
man beings over the crests of the great seas.
Nearer and nearer they drew to the shore ,
where the swarm of twinkling lanterns on
the beach spoke of theanxiety that prevailed
there. In five minutes more the boat was
dashed upon the beach and a dozen men
sprang to clutch the gunwale and drag her
out of reuch of the receding wave. The
first man to greet the voyagers was
Mr. Benjamin Baxter , who had run down on
a late train and down whose big. kindly face ,
tears of joy were chasing themselves. After
he had kissed his wife something more than
a hundred times he turned to look at the
others. But there was only one other , Miss
Kthel stood there , drenched and wretched ,
both men had slipped through the ciowd and
utsuppeansl.
In less than half an hour , having seen his
wilt ? and daugater safely to bod , Mr. Baxter
started out into the corridors to look for
Clarence. He had not to go far , for on pass
ing his room he noticed a light there. lie
went in without knocking , walked up to
where Clarence stood , with his elbows on the
mantel and his face leaning upon
his hands , put his arm about
the young man's shoulders and
looked into his eyes. I can't speak , boy. " he
saal , ia a choking sort of voice , "all that I
eaa { say to you and I say it from the bottom
of , my heart is that vou'ro a noble fellow.
Go.l bless you ! "
Then he noticed that the room was in a
terrible muddle. Clothes , hats , sticks , pipes
u ! 4 every thing else that goes to make up a
young man's summer wardrobe , were scat
tered about the Uoor in confusion : while an
open portmanteau lay near by. "What does
this mean , Clarence ? " the old gentleman
asked.
. "It means. " replied theyoungman bitterly ,
that I'm going away from here before I'm
aa hour older. Yes , I'll tell you
why , " he added fiercely , in an
swer , to the mute inquiry
. of Mr. Baxter ' s eyes , "it's because I love
your daughter Ethel so well that life without
her will be a mi-ery to me , while she * '
choking down a sol ) "she cares more for a
look . from that d d poltroon than she does
for my whole soul and body ; that's why ! "
Mr. Baxter gazed very earnestly at the
young giant , who looked wonderfully hand
some and brave and honest standing there in
his wet clothes. Then the old gentleman ' s
eyes began to twinkle a little. He was al
ways something of a humorist.
"Clarence , " he remarked , oracularly ,
• , 'you're a brave boy ; but you're a fool.
"Don't stop me sir. " he went on , "but I've
just come from Ethel , all I've got to say is
: that if 3 ou leave here this night yon'll wish
you had been drownded , as you deserved to
be. ' ;
When Mr. Baxter was excited , Lindley
Murray frequently suffered. Clarence , how
ever j , did not notice it this time. Having de
livered himself of his parting shot Mr. Baxter
wrung the young man's hacd and left him.
And Clarence stayed. But the queerest
part of thewhole affair was that from the in
stant the boat had touched the shore , Mr.
Ingram vanished from their sight and ken as
utterly as if the sea had "drowned" him as
Mr Benjamin Baxter would have put it.

In Aucient Egypt.
Bull-fighting was one of the amuse
ments of the ancient Memphians.
Type-writers are a modern luxury ,
but sixteen or seventeen centuries
ago young women were employed in
the Alexandrian library copying
books for sale.
"When an ancient Egyptian found
himself in need of money he could al-
wajs negotiate loans upon the mum
mies of his ancestors. Mummies
were considered gilt-edged securities.
The Alexandrians were passionate
ly fond of cock-fighting. Eros , a . '
tax-gatherer , having committed the
unpardonable crime of roasting and
eating , the champion cock , was cruci-
fiedby order of the Emperor Augustus.
The Egyptians were among the
first people to discourage vagrancy.
They had a law making it the duty
of magistrates to cause every man
to give an account of how he earned
his livelihood. Solon , after visiting
Egypt , gave a similar law to the
Athenians.
Cleopatra , in addition to her other
charms , was somewhat of a practical
joker. One day she accompanied
Antony on a fishing expedition. An-
tony'sluck was poor , so he surrepti
tiously ordered one of his men to
dive into the water and put upon his
hook a fish that he had previously
caught , Cleopatra saw the trick ,
but saitLnothing. The next day she
brought a large party of friends to
see the fishing , and when Antonr let"
dow&his line she sent one ofher own
dfrwrsto attach the fish. "When the

THE TIGER'S EYL
By tho author "Ab in a Looking-Glnss. "
Colonel Yandelcur wub a British ofllcer
who , on mnny occasions , had done a good
deal more than hmell powder. Aaa mere boy ,
fresh from school , he went out strnightto tho
Crimea and got Iub first promotion for head
ing a little party of volunteers who captured
a rifle-pit and from it turned tho enemy's
lino by taking them in flank. At the time of
our story ho wns stillin the prime of life , capa
ble of any amount of hardship and fatigue , a
keen sportsman , and , among men at any
rate , a universal favorite. Nor werehis good
looks spoiled in any way by his glass eye.
Some sand thrown up by a Itussiun shell ,
which had burst in the trenches , hud struck
him in tho face and his right eye had to be
sacrificed. In its place he carried an eye of
glass , which was perfectly well matched nnd
almost defied detection , his own features be
ing , ns a rule , if not exactly stolid , certainly
very far from vivacious.
He had made but one mistake in life. At
tho ago of 45 ho had married a girl of 18 ,
nnd ho was now the veriest slavo ofher
caprices. The match had been a matter of
regret to all his friends , many of whom had
found that tho young wife's intolerable self-
assertion and petulance made it almost im
possible for them any longer to see their old
comrade , except on rare oecnssions at the
club. Now it so happened that the colonel
and his wife were btaying at the Bedford
hotel at Brighton , and that Sir Grevillo
Sykes was nlso fixed in quarters at the Old
ship. Vnndeleur and Sykes had known each
other for some years , and so it was only
natural that tho Vandeleurs coining across
Sykes on the beech should ask him to dinner ,
and afterward see a good deal of him , and
thnt they should mako up between them a
little party of three.
A stroke of luck hud befallen Vnndeleur.
An old uncle had died suddenly , leaving him
all his money. Ninety-five thousand pounds
is a comfortable sum. The sooner you get it
out of the hands of tho lawyers and into your
own tho better. So Vnndeleur wns always
hurrying up to London , and , as he expressed
it , pegging away at themusty old dullards of
the courts. One day he had a downright ex
plosion with the second partner of the emi
nent firm of Tail , Tail , Bemainder & Tail ,
and had oven gone to the length of threaten-
ings to transfer hiB business to the younger
and quicker hands of Messrs. Shortcroft &
Raid. This so terrified the man of tape that
he not only promised to wind the whole busi
ness up in a fortnight , but actually suggested
a check for a couple of thousand pounds for
any little immediate needs , and , what is
more , drew the document and signed it.
"This is jolly , " said Vnndeleur to himself.
"It is now only 12 , and I can easily be back
for dinner. "
So first ho drove to tho bank and cashed
the check , then ho paid the bulk of the money
into his own bank , and then he had some
sherry nnd a caviare sandwich at the club.
Next he strolled up Piccadilly and made some
purchases some gloves , a bracelet , and a
Bunshudc for his w ife , together with a most
charming silver chatelaine. And for himself ,
half a dozen boxes of cigars and a walking
Btick to which ho took a fancy. Then he re
turned to his club to lunch. Being much in
cumbered with the dust of travel he set to
work about his absolutions in earnest , and
before commencing them removed his glass
eye. It somehow blipped through his lingers ,
fell with a crash on tho stone floor , and
splintered into a thousand fragments.
Now , it is not so easy , as Vandeleur knew ,
to get a glass eye at a minute's notice. You
mtibt devote a morning to the carrying out
of such a matter and have your own eye very
carefully matched. It is aB troublesome an
undertaking as a visit to your dentist. So he
resolved to make a second visit to London
next week and bring up his wife with carte
blanche to ransack the dry goods stores on
her own account. Meanwhile he hurried
round to tho eminent taxidermist who had
alwdys set up his big game for him and ex
plained his position.
"I don't want to go down to Brighton
with a green patch , you know , " he observed.
"What can you do ior me ? "
"We don't keep human eyes , sir. Ton
should go to an optician's or a surgical in
strument maker's. "
"So I will when I am next in town , or will
come up on purpose to do it. But I've only
twenty minutes to catch my train , so you
must fix me up somehow. "
The shopman hesitated , but at last pro
duced a box with trays full of eyes of every
kind. One was selected which fitted fairly
well.
well."It
"It will do" said the colonel , as ho looked
at himself In the glass. "At all events it is
better than nothing. What beast was it
meant for ? "
"A tiger , sir. "
The colonel laughed as he took his change.
"Begad , I ought to have known it , " said he ,
"without being told ! If anyone knows a ti
ger's eye , it's your humble servant. I've
shot them , ah ! by the score , the brutes. " '
The shopman thought his customer was
bouncing , and was just about the giggle ,
when he buddenly looked at the colonel ,
seemed to catch an awkward expression in his
features , and recovered himself abruptly.
Away rattled Vandeleur in a quick hansom
to the station. "Drive sharp ! " ho said.
When deposited at the depot he tendered the
Jchue his legal fare. The fellow looked at
him in disgust. "Why. what's this ? " he was
beginning , when he suddenly seemed to think
better of it "Beg your pardon sir. I wns
a-thinking it was live miles. " And he clam-
bored into his seat and went awav immedi
ately. "I'd as soon drive the devil himself , "
he said , when he joined his friends upon the
rank. "It was awful. No beak in London's
in it with this covo. 'Six month's' I 'eard im
say. Leastways I 'eard 5im look it. That's
to say I see 'im look it. "
Innocent of all this , the colonel purchased
an assortment of pnpera and seated himself
in a carriage. It was a very odd thing he
thought. Actually a lady who was in the
same compartment whispered something to
her husband in a state of great excitement.
The guard was summoned , and they trans-
fered themselves to another carriage. "A
curious business , " said the colonel. "They
can't take me for a vampire. " Then the train
6tarted and he settled down to his papers.
From the station he drove to the Bedford ,
telling the porter to bring up his packages.
His wife was seated in the window , busied
with "Ouida's" latest effort of imagination.
She jumped up and came to meet him.
" 1 was wondering when 3ou would re
turn , " she said. "I thought perhaps you
might stay and dine at your club , and come
down by the last train , or perhaps to-mor
row morning. "
"Why should you think that ? " he asked ,
not at all unnaturally. It was annoying ,
when he had come down with a lot of pres
ents for her , that she should not be more
cordial in her welcome.
She looked at her husband , for a moment ,
made a step toward him , and turned re id.
threw herself upon the sofa , aud buret into
tears.
" 0 , don't kill me ! Don't kill me ! I've
been dreadfully wicked , horribly wicked , but
don't kill me ! "
Colonel Vandeleur wentback to town that
night by the late express , and took up his i
quarters at a hotel much frequented by hnn |
in his bachelor days. Next day he received a j I
short letter from his wife , which was at once
incoherent and yet explicit. Also , was truth
ful , which her letters as a rule were not.
He meditated a good deal and went around
to his lawyers. Then he went to the club ,
hunted out an old friend , and took him to
dinner. dined tete-a-tete in
They - - a private
room , and sat talking until very small hours
in the morning. The consultation over at
last , the colonel wrote a letter , and a confi
dential clerk from the office of his solicitors
took it down next morning to Brighton to
make sure of personal delivery.
"At my time of life I was averse to a scan
dal , nor have I any wish to marry again. I
have no secret and no attachment or even an >
ordinary entanglement thnt I have hidden
from you. Your position will not be affected.
Your settlements will remain ns they are. But
Iimposeoneconditiononyou.Youwillhaveto
live at Mnrgate , whether you like the place or
not , and I forbid you to leave it , even for a
day , except by the written order of my doc
tor , who will at any timo como down from
London to see you.
"I may as well tell yon that your move
ments will be duly and regularly reported to
me. A day will be enough for you to make
your arrangements. On any .business matter
however small , you may write to my solici
tors.
"There is thus nothing that need trouble
yon. For myself , I am leaving England , and j
have no fixed plans. Ifyou write to me I shall
refer tho letter to my solicitors , so that you
may spare yourself all attempts to shake an
irrevocable determination. "Were you not a
protcstant , I should advise you to go intoa j

thing for you. drAm-ty Vandeleur. "
Mrs. Vandeleur is much respected at Mar
gate , whero the curates and the old maidfl
compare her troubles und BorrowH to those
of poor dear Lady Byron. Shoisvery char
itable and immensely energetic , nnd on minor
points of parish administration the rector re-
fers to her.
Colonel Vnndeleur himself is yncting nnd
shooting , not extravagantly at all , but in
true sportsmnu-liko fashion. His hair is griz
zled , but ho is still erect as a dwarf , and , as
his friends profanely put it , with covert ullu-
Bion to the principal misfortunes of his life ,
"his eyo is not dim nor his natural forco
abated. "
It Dines off "Wool and Ftir.
"Well , " said the careless young
person resignedly as she looked
at her sealskin jacket and her
otter-trimmed suit , "I suppose the
moths will play the mischief with all
my winter things before next sea
son. "
"What makes you think that ? " de
manded the good housekeeper.
"They always do , " replied the
careless young person in tones that
indicated that she felt a certain sad
pride in being singled out by ftite as
a victim.
"That is nonsense , perfect non
sense , " said the good housekeeper in
most unsympathetic tones. "Ifyou
lived in a properly regulated house
3ou wouldn't know what si moth
looks like. I never have them in my
house. How do I keep them out ?
By simply not giving them anything
to live in or on. I don't make nests
of woolen rags around on purpose
for their accommodation. I don't
have anything woolen around in
summer except things in daily use.
I take up the carpets of the rooms
not in use or sometimes I put down
matting alt over the house and put
away the carpets , or if they are
down I keep some good moth pow
der and put it around in the less fre
quented corners.
"How do I keep them out of the
carpels after they are taken up ?
"I don't know how I'd get them in
unless I took particular pains to.
There is no sense in the world in any
one having anything mobh-eaten.
There is forty ways of preventing it ,
each easier than the last. To begin
with , you can have a cedar chest or a
cedar-lined closet ifyou live in your
own house. It costs something in
the beginning , but nothingso oppres
sive as people generally imagine , and
there it is for the accommodation of
your children's children. "
"I'm afraid they'll never arrive to
get the good of my cedar chest , " in
terrupted the young person pertly.
"Ifyou haven't a chest , " went on
the good housekeeper , ignoring this
side issue , "yon can put them in an
ordinary trunk and put in 10 cent's
worth of camphor and defy all the
moths in Christendom. "
"I don't like my things smelling ol
camphor , " objected theyoungperson.
"I like my things smelling of cam
phor better than having no things to
smell of airything , " was the satirical
response , "but you don 't need to have
camphor. If you 'll just do up your
furs and winter woolens in cotton
cloth , wrap them up in one big sheet ,
you'll be perfectly safe or you would
be ifyou had some one Avith a grain
of common sense to do up the bundle
for you. It won't do to roll a sheet
around themiddleaud leaveit open at
both ends. The sheet must thorough-
yl enwrap your things , with no Iogsb
corners or cracks. Moths won 't go
through cotton , nnd if they have no
other way to get at your sealskin
they'll go with out it. "
"I haven 't any sheet , " objected the
young person , mischievously. She
wanted to exhaust the resources as
well as the patience of the good house
keeper , but that lady was equal to
the occasion.
"Well , " said she , "paper will do
just as well. If you'll save the big-
sheets of wrapping paper that your
new spring things are now coming
home in you can do up all your winter
ones in a way that will baffle the
most enterprising moth that ever
wiggled. "
"But I think they have already
gotten in the jacket. "
"They haven't gone far if they have ;
all you need to do is to shake and
beat it out well and then sprinkle it
well with powder before you put it
away. The moth powders are gener
ally good things. "
"But they are poisonous , aren't
they ? "
"As harmless as arrowroot. They
don't poison the moths , they suffocate
them. "
And the young person saw no way
out of being obliged to take care of
her things for once.
A l ew Story Ahout Washington.
From the Independent.
There is an unpublished story of
Washington told me by a descendant
of the ancestor who is in the storv ,
which represents the great general in
the pleasant family life we have all
liked to contemplate , and not as the
grand man and the hero at the head
of his army. It was when Washing-
ton , after the revolutionary war , was
traveling through Connecticut and
visited Hartford , staying at tho
Bull's Tavern there. A boy came in
to the kitchen of the tavern and said :
"I want to see Gen. Wsishington. "
The functionary on duty did not
propose to let any mere boy see Gen.
Washington merely for the asking ,
and said as much.
"But I have a note for him , " rem
onstrated the boy.
"From whom ? "
"My father , Chief Justice Ells
worth. "
"Oh well , " and the functionary
relented. Gen. Washington read the
note and said to the boy : "Your
father invites me to dinner , I will do
more than that , I will go and break
fast with him. "
And he did the next morning. And
after breakfast he took the twin sons
of the justice , each on a knee aad
sang them the "Derby Baman old
English ballad , beginning : "It was
on a market day , " and setting forth
that the Ram of Derby was so big
that the birds built nests in the wool
on his back and the butcher who
undertook to kill him was di owned
in the blood.
Forltino Entara a Tailor Shop.
Cblcaco i ( Ills. ) Arknmaw Traveler. July 7th.
Had shoomnkors always followed tho
old adage "stick to your last , " nnd hnd
tailors likewise "stuck to tho cooao , "
tho world would have lost many a
statesman i , philosopher , inventor , author
and ; poet. Tho unsatisfied mind of man
Iiub , however , in ovory ago and country ,
caused them to break away from their
arduous aud often ill paid toil , to suc
cessfully ombark in trailo or specula
tion and sometimes in science , art or
literature. F. W. Lebin , a Swedish
tailor , of Chicago , is ono of those.
Some six weeks ago he was told bj' a
friend of tho great drawing soon to tako
place in Tho Louisiana State Lottery
and invested in ft small way. His ven
ture proved successful his name being
attached to one of the capital prizes.
To confirm the report that Mr. Lobin
held a winning ticket in tho Juno draw
ing of this enterprise , r Traveler repre
sentative called on him at his reBidenco ,
977 Northwestern avenue. Ho was
found , surrounded by his wife and six
bright , health j' looking children , sitting
upon his tablo in true tailor st3'lo , busy
with his needle. In answer to an in
quiry as to the trnth of tho report of
his good fortune he replied : "Yes , I
held 1-20 of ticket No. 71,678 in Tho
Louisiana State Lottery , which drew on
June 12 the second capital prizo of
$100,000. As soon as I learned of my
good fortune I forwarded my ticket to
the managers at New Orleans and tho
money camo at once by express. I took
it from the express oflico directly to the
bank where it is still deposited. I am
going to buy me a lot somewhere in tho
suburbs of the city whero I can have a
garden and a grass plot for the children
to play on , build me a nice littlo homo
and try and enjoy lifo. I shall keep
right on working at my trade and send
my children to school. With a homo
of my own and no rent to pay I may
soon save enough from my earnings to
go into business for myself. " Mr. Le
bin is but thirty years of age , and tho
start his luck gives him , coupled with
his own industry and good senso will
doubtless make him one day a leading
business man of Chicago.
