Fling tha gay stuffs above It,
The scar that the wound lias lefts
Hide It with glowing flowers.
With fingers quick and deft;
Speak as l* never a weapon,

The world will look and lightly
Say H is all forgot;
The sneer, the lie, tho treason.

Change in the law of uature.
And love and faith and trust
Are things too fair and dainty
To tread life's common dust.

KADOUR AND KATEL.
Kadour-ben-Cherifa, sergeant major in
a native regiment of tirailleurs, was al
most dying the evening they carried him
to Bippert’s sawmill on the 8anerbach,
and for five long weeks, racked by the
pain of his wounds and bnrning with
fever, he lived as though in a dream.
At times he thought himself still iu the
thick at battle, shonting and leaping
through the flaxfieldB of Wissembourg,
or, again, he was away off in Algeria, ia
the house of his father, the caid of the
Matinatas.
At last one day he opened his eyes and
became vaguely conscious of a bright,
calm, white curtained room, with green
branches swaying outside its windows in
the soft, tempered sunshine, and near his
bed a silent little sister of charity, but a
little sister without beads or silver cross
or blue veil; only two heavy braids she
had, falling down over a velvet bodice.
From time to time some one would call
out, “Katel! Katel!” and the girl would
go away on tiptoe, and the wounded boy
could hear in the distance a sonorous
yonng voice, as refreshing to listen to as
the brook running under the sawmill’s
window’s.
Kadour-ben-Cherifa has been ill a long
time, but the Ripperts have taken such
good care of him tliai his wounds are
healed, and they have hidden him so well
that the Prussia^ have not found him
to send him t-e itj'of cold in the Mayence
prisons. be commences to talk, to
show his white teeth and to take a few
steps around the room, letting one of his
sleeves—the one with a wide, gaping
hole in the midst of its embroideries—
fall empty over a well dressed and ban
daged bnt still impotent arm. Every day
Katel carries u wicker chair down into
the little sawmill garden for the conva
lescent and finds for him the snnniest
corner, along the wall, where the grapes
ripen quickest, and Kadour, who, being
a caid’s son, was educated at the Arabian
college iu Algiers, thanks her in some
what barbarous French, well sprinkled
with bono bezeffs and macach bonos.
Without realizing it, the yonng Arab
is under a spell. This easy gayety of a
Frankish girl, whose life is as free as a
bird’s, without enveloping veils out of
doors or barred windows at home, aston
ishes and enchants him. So different
from this is the cloistered life of the
women of his land—the little white
masked, musk perfumed Moorish wom
en. Katel, on her side, finds Kadonr a
trifle too black, bnt he seems so good, so
brave, and he does so detest the Prus
sians! One thing only troubles her. Off
there in that Algeria of Africa men have
the right to marry several wives. Katel
cannot understand that at all, so when
the Algerian, to tease her, says in his
jargon: “Kadonr marry soon. He take
four wives—four!" Katel becomes very
angry.
“Oh, what a wicked Kadour! What a
heathen!”
Then the Arab laughs a hearty boy’s
laugh, but suddenly he becomes serious
again and is mute before the young girl,
opening upon her eyes so wide—so wide
you would thing he wished to carry her
away in their gaze.
It was thus that the loves of Kadonr
and Katel commenced.
Now that he is well, Kadour has re
turned to his father, and you can imag
ine if there has been merrymaking in
his honor in the land of the Matmatas.
The reed Antes and little Arab drams
have played their prettiest aira to receive
him. As the old caid, who was sitting
before his door, saw in the distance
coming down the cactus alley this be
loved son whom he thought dead, he
shook under his woolen burnoose as
though with a chill. For a whole month
there was an uninterrupted series of dif
fas, of fantasias, in tbe tribe. The caids
and agas of the neighborhood disputed
with each other the honor of having Ka
donr-ben-Cherifa for their gnest, and ev
ery evening in the Moorish cafes they
would make him tell them over and over
again of the great battles in which he
had taken part.
Bnt all these honors, all this feasting,
do not make Kadonr the happier. In
the paternal abode, surrounded though
he be by all the associations of his boy
hood—bis horses, his dogs, his guns—
there is something always lacking—Ka
tel’s cheery words and pleasant laughter.
The perpetual chatter of the Arabian
women, which used to cause his heart to
beat so quickly, now wearies and annoys
him. He no longer admires headdresses
of coins nor wide trousers of rose col
ored satin. Talk to him rather of long
braids falling down, without pearls or
gauze or flowers, only intermingled with
threads of gold from the setting sun in a
little Alsatian garden.
Bnt if Kadour wonld? In the next
tribe to his there are beautiful black
eyes watching him from behind the
barred windows at the aga’s dwelling
—beautiful eyes so elongated with kohl
that their every glance is an indolent ca
ress. Bnt Kadour no longer cares for
eyes like that. What he dreams of, what
he longs for, is Katel’s kind look, which
used to make tbe tour at his room so
quickly to ms that nothing waa lacking
for his comfort and is.which tbs-iife was
always dancing like light in the bine
depths of water drops.
Little by little, however, the charm of
blue eyes wears off; that tender ch;:r:a
intermingled in his mind with the first
experiences of convalescence, its first
walks out of doors and with the climate
of France, so soft and temperate. Ka
dour has finally forgotten Katel. In the
whole Chelif valley nothing is talked of
but his approaching marriage with Ya
mina, the daughter of the aga of Dzen
del.
One morning a long line of rnnlos
could bo seen on the road leading to the
town. It in Kailonr-ben-Cherifa, who is
going with his father to select the wed
ding gifts. The whole day is spent in
the bazaars examining burnooses all shot
with silver, rich carpets from Smyrna,
amber necklaces and eardrops, and as he
handles all these pretty jewels, these
drifts of silk and shimmering staffs, Ka
dour thinks only of Yamina. The orient
has completely reconquered him. but
more from the force of habit and the in
fluence of the place and surrounding ob
jects than by any bond of the heart.
At the close of the day the mnles,
drawn np in line, laden with closely
packed hampers of finery, were descend
ing one of the outer streets of the town
when on approaching the Arabian office
they were stopped by a crowd assembled
in the street. It was a band of emigrants
that had just arrived. As nothing hod
been made ready to receive them, the
poor things had come to the office to
protest and question. The more dis
heartened remained seated on their
boxes, wearied from the journey, an
noyed by the curiosity of the crowd, and
over all these exiled ones, like an addi
tional touch of sadness, shone the rays
of the setting sun. r,
Night was coming on to make still
more wretched for them the mystery of
this unknown land and the discomfiture
of their arrival. Kadour looked at them
mechanically. But all at once a deep
emotion arose in his heart. The cos
tumes of the old peasants, the velvet
bodices of the women, all those heads
the color of ripe wheat—and here his
dream takes actual shape; he has just
recognized the pretty features, the thick
braids and the smile of Katel. She is
there, a few paces from him, with the
old man Rippert, the mother and the lit
tle ones—all so far away from their saw
mill and the Sauerbach that still runs by
the little abandoned home.
“Kadourt”
“Katel!1’
He has become very pale; she has
blushed a little.
So, then, it is all arranged. The Caid's
house is large, and while waiting for a
piece of land to be allotted to them the
family will install themselves there.
Quickly the mother gathers together the
bundles scattered around her and calls
the little ones, who are already at play
with the stranger children. They are all
crammed into the hampers with the
stuffs, and Katel laughs with all her
heart to find herself so tall, seated high
up in the Arabian saddle.
Kadour laughs, too, less loudly though,
with a feeling of deep, contained happi
ness. As night is coming on and it is
cold, he envelops his companion in a
fine striped burnoose, which drapes its
shimmering folds and fringes around
her. Motionless and straight in her lofty
seat, she looks like some blond Mussul
man girl who has left her veils behind
her. Kadour thinks of it as he looks at
her. And then there come to him mad
ideas, a thousand wild projects. Already
he has determined to release the aga’s
daughter from her word to him.
He will marry Katel—no one but
Katel. Who knows? Perhaps some day
they will again be returning thus from
the town—they two, alone in a lane of
laurel roses, she laughing in her high
perch on the mole, he by her bridle as
now. And feverish, deep in his dreams,
he starts to give the signal for departure,
bat Katel stops him in her sweet voice:
“Not yet—my husbandis coming. We
must wait for him.”
Katel was married. Poor Kadour!—

His Reward.
Richwood, a little town Booth of here,
is all agog, not only in colored circles,
bnt also among the white brethren.
The trouble is that a certain colored
brother who takes an active part in re
ligious circles, and in whom his asso
ciates have placed implicit confidence,
has been detected having a piece of
sticky fly paper in his hat when he went
to take np the collection at the church.
All the coins that were dropped upon
the fly paper staid there, and it is amaz
ing how the big pieces crowded the little
ones off. When the audience had been
solicited, this smooth individual would
advance toward the pulpit and turn his
hat upside down over that of another
who had been soliciting the audience on
the other side of the house. All the
coins that dropped belonged to the
chnrch, and that which remained in the
hat was to remunerate him for the
good he had done in the blessed work.—

THE OLD VALENTINE.
A souvenir of tlio bygone yean,
Breathing ohl odors faint as musk
Wuioh roses »j<iii in dew and dusk;
Its blazoned pages dulled by tears;
Its faded Cupid drooping low.
With broken v. ing and rusty bow;
A leaf of life turned old and sear.
Yet still she holds it sweet and dear.
For love embalms each simple line
Of that old, faded valentine.
She pores upon the cherished page—
A lily past her morning glow.
But fair as in the long ago.
To such cs she what matters age.
Whose love is ageless, and whose truth
Makes in her soul oternal youth?
Still unforgotten kisses thrill
With rapture her swift pulses; still
She cries: “How bright this world would be
Could you, O Love, come back to me.
As once my own and only mine.
My bonny knight and valentine!
• “The fault was mine—oh, hapless fate!—
To learn our needs and blame too late.
When prayers and tears cannot atone
For wrong and sorrow dealt our ownp*
But, lo, a tread of eager feet
Presages something strange and sweetl
He comes, forgiven, to forgive!
“Sweetheart, to love that is to live.
And love like oars can never die."
Nor need to voice her heart's reply!
More eloquent the dumb, dear sign
Of that long treasured valentine.

An Acrobatic Shin*.
The man was tall and lank, with keen
bine eyes, looking over a nose like a par
rot’s beak. A shaggy growth of uneven
whiskers sprouted in patches from his
face, and he wore a long drab ulster,
which partly covered a huge pair of mud
covered topboots, into which were stuffed
the ends of a varicolored pair of overalls.
With a badly worn carpet gripsick m
his hand he leaned against the wire fence
beside the register’s office and called a
bootblack.
Two Italians responded, and each
claimed the customer. After a volley of
Mulberry street expletives each grabbed
a foot and set to work. The man eyed
them closely and clutched his grip a lit
tle tighter. In a moment the bootblacks
renewed their dispute, and in their anger
yanked the man’s feet in the air. For a
moment he poised, balanced on the wire,
and them with a whoop fell backward
upon the withered grass plot. A crowd
collected, and the Italians scampered off.
Their victim, with one boot shined and
the other muddy, picked himself up
slowly.
“Gosh,” he muttered, “maybe them
'ere fellers knowed I kept bills in my
boots, or else they were durned hard up
fer work.”
He ascended the steps to the bridge
and wae soon swallowed in the crowd.—

Fast Colors.
A useful point is made by a writer in
The Economist in regard to the term
“fast colors,” as applied to printed and
woven cottons. The rule is laid down
that the more delicate in shade a dye is
the more difficult it is to fix it in the cot
ton fiber, but even the crudest colors will
fade if goods are imperfectly treated in
the laundry. Any of the goods, in fact,
that are sold as fast colors, whether of
domestic or foreign manufacture, are
practically fast, bnt when subjected to
the powerful chemicals of which many of
the washing soaps are composed, or when
hung out for honrs on a clothesline and
exposed to the bleaching influences of
sun and air, the colors must necessarily
fade to a greater or less extent. It is
well known that the chemicals con
tained in washing soaps and similar
compounds are in many cases as power
ful as those employed in the process of
bleaching muslins. In not a few in
stances, too, they are probably of a
greater degree of strength, the result
being that they weaken the cloth to an
extent that the bleacher wonld not be
disposed to risk.
Shnffleboard.
Shnffleboard is popular enough in Eng
land and Scotland and used to be popular
here but it is doubtful whether it ever
penetrated this country as far as Buffalo
or Pittsburg. It obtained here in drink
ing saloons run by Scotchmen, and the
last of the boards are now to-be found
in one such place in Brooklyn and a very
few in this city. It is the same game as
that which is played on shipboard, but in
reality both are forms of the old Scotch
sport of curling. Shnffleboard as it is
played most commonly is played with
one pound weights on a long thick board
kept well sanded. It requires skill to
slide the weights to just the right place,
and it requires more skill for the other
fellow to knock them off after they get
there.—New York Sun.

THE TRAINED SEALS.
CAPTAIN WESTON TELLS ABOUT HI8
THREE PERFORMERS.
flow Do and a Famous German Fisherman
Captured Bobby, Blbby and Tommy.
Some of Their Tricks—They Live Upon
Salt Water Fish.
Of all the different animals that go to
make up the animal kingdom a fish is
tjerhaps the strangest that should he
:hosen for training, yet the acts dune by
the three seals under Captain Weston ’a
guidance show that even a fish cun do
wonderful things. Those now perform
ing every day are the oldest seals in
captivity. Seals are extremely delicate,
and they rarely live away from their
native aea and rocks for more than a
year, and yet these seals, Bobby, Bibby
and Tommy, have been performing reg
ularly for six years. Their longevity is
undoubtedly due to tbe fact that they
receive great care.
Tbe exact spot of the birthplace of
these seals is not known, but when they
were youngsters they were found on one
of the islands off Coxshaven in Germany.
Tbe German government does all it can
to protect its fisheries, and as seals are
a constant menace to fish the govern
ment pays a reward of 5 marks for tbe
capture of each seal. There is a famous
Beal fisherman in Germany nam d
'.Vortbman, and when Captain Weston,
who bad been on many sealing and
whaling expeditions in the North sea,
determined that he would give up the
life of a sailor and become a landlubber
it occurred to him that the training of
seals wonld be uovel and profitable. He
went to Worthman, and together they
captured the three sleek little fellows.
There are many islands outside of Coxs
haven, and one of the smallest was
chosen. In describing the capture Cap
tain Weston said:
We stretched the net on one side of one
of tbe smaller islands and then went to
the others and shot oil pistols and made a
noise, driving many seals into the wa
ter and against the Det. We bad to
work very quickly, because the sealB
dived down and became entangled in the
net, and a seal will drown if kept five
minutes under water. When we finally
palled them up, we found that we had
about 20 seals, but when they found
themselves altogether they became en
raged and fought among themselves,
biting, scratching and tearing, even
killing one another, until there were
only three left, aud these three are tbe
same three 1 have today.
One has only a faint idea of the
amount of patience which it requires to
teach a fish, for such a seal really is.
It looks easy to see oue of my seals play
the banjo or a harp, but it took me
three months of hard work every day
to teach them to do this even in an im
perfect manner, and the only reason
that 1 can give is that they have been
at it long enough to learn.
1 have never before known a seal to
live in captivity over one year, and yet
1 have bad mine many times that. 1
am often surprised at their intelligence.
Especially is this true of Bobby, the
clown. 1 believe that that fish under
stands humor, because be does things at
times which actually make me langh,
to say nothing about the audience. He
is the best seal I ever had, the best 1
ever will have, and I think that he has
an affection for me, and that he knows
almost everything that 1 say to him.
Yes. the care of seals is a great one.
1 keep them in a tank, and above the
water is a shelf for them to lie on when
they feel so inclined. This water is
changed three times a day, and 20
pounds of salt are put into the water at
each change, for a seal cannot live in
fresh water, yon know. They are as
plump and fat today aa they were lying
on their native rocks in the North
sea, and they know a great deal more
about the world than they otherwise
would have known. It may surprise
some people, but it is nevertheless a
fact, that these three seals eat 500 pounds
of fish a week. They will only eat sea
fish, such as herring or flounder, and I
attribute their long life to the fact that
1 am very careful with their food. The
fish are washed and cleaned and the
heads cnt off jnst as carefully and jnst
as cleanly as though going on a hotel
table. The seal does not chew a fish,
but swallows it whole, and it would
surprise you to see how a great mass of
fish will disappear when three seals get
at it. All the accomplishments of these
Beals are not shown. They have been
tanght water tricks. I can throw a 10
cent piece into a tank of water, and,
amall as the piece is and flat as it lies
on the bottom, at a word of command
any one of my seals will dive for it and
get it. This 1 do not show in pnblic,
because the tank is an nnwieldy thing
to keep abont.
Have they ever bitten me? Yes, sev
eral times, and the seal’s bite is a nasty
one. The last time was when 1 placed
the tambourine in front of Bibby.
Without warning he grabbed me by the
arm. and 1 certainly thought he would
take a big piece out of it before 1 could
make bim let go, and I was obliged to
strike bim very severely before 1 could
get him to let loose. My seals to me
are great pets, and i think as much of
them as 1 would of a child, for their
great, big, intelligent eyes look up into
mine with an expression which tells me
it they only knew -how they would cer
tainly talk to me.—New York Tribune.
