TXe haven't any money, but I'll work ad car vou all when I am a woman! Dr. Reynolds knew very little about por people, and cared still less, but th1 child interested and touched him. "Perhaps I couldn't cure him if I went," he- said. "Oh. yes. you will." she replied. "Ton are so good and so great. Tou cere everybody." The doctor winced- He had his own private opinion about his goodness Stella had passed throurh a great deal that day. and as she waited for h.ts answer with her heart In her eyes she grew white, tottered, and would have fallen if the doctor had hot caught her in his arms. He remembered re- morsef ully what his servant had told him. The child felt herself gently lifted from her feet- She hardly dared, breathe when she -realized that the grat man was holding h-r in his arms. He carried her into a more beautiful rrvm than s.he had ever even dreamed of before, and laid her on a white bed. "I shall zn with you." he said, "as j soon as I can "Lie and rest till I am " ready, then I shall call you." Ke left her dnd- soon after a "motherIy-Iookinz woman brouzht her such a dainty. '. lunch. Stella ate It eagerly, for she was very hun'rry. She lay for awJiile looking around the beautiful room, then . kr yeKds closed and she fell asleep. When she awoke the doctor stood be- 1 side her, and his face wore a look she did nbt understand. He would not let her -walk, but took her in his arms, again and earned her to his beautiful carriage. Somehow. sh lost all her fear of him during that ride; she told him all the adventures she had on the way, all about her home life and her father's 1 Illness. He drew her closer to him when she told him how the tramp had fol lowed ber. Great was the neighbors' surprise to see such a handsome carnage stop be fore Mr. Wynn's door, and to see the great doctor step out. Mrs. Wynn was too anxious about her husband to be awed by his presence. , She received him with a quiet dignity i which pleased him. ' He examined Mr. Wynn carefully. . asked many auestions. then said: "It is. a critical case, but I think we can , save him." And they did; never did man have "better care than he. and when the leaves on the maples were red and -gold. . he was- well again. Dr. Reynolds had I-amed many things. Stella had grown very dear to him. and he could not bear to have her ' living confidence in him shaken. So it came about that many poor people were attended by the greit doctor, while pome rich ones were neglected-. He :raind less money by the change, but more of a sweeter, trutrr joy than he had ever known before. Stella often .visited him in the hand some house, and later on became very fond of the beautiful lady he chose to b its mistress. His little children Iarnd to love her. too. and to look for t"T crrminc. Onj day. when sh was sitting on his knve. sb put her arms around his neck and said: I love you. my doctor, be cause you cured papa-" He kissed her softly on the forehead and he re plied; "Indeed. Stella. I think you had as much to do with the cure as I did. . It was. on your part, a Genuine Faith Cure." DORA AXXI5 CHASE. The ammrr ;irl' .IareliTr.

As the recog nized cradle of the human race, it is of overwhelming interest, but it is of the very utmost interest, too. to the scientist and naturalist for-entirely dif- ferent reasons. From this remote and i almost inaccessible corner of the earth. for instance, came originally nearly every one of our domestic animals. The Bible says, in the Book of Gene sis: "The Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden." And. indeed, if ever there was a spot which seemed to have been especially created and i clothed with marvelous richness of I foliage, of climate and of- diverse . species of birds and beasts, with its j verdant' valleys and luxurious plains, j framed by an encircling range of i snowy mountain peaks, it is the won- ! derfui Vale of Cashmere- Here it was that Adam was created .the first man.

And now that the ex plorer has begun work among them the possibilities of the work of research and discovery are almost boundless. Who can foretell what may not de velop in digging 4n the very ground where Adam and Eve trod? Who can say but that here, in this divine gard en spot, the Creator may not have left relics of the first man and woman..to be carefully preserved for the explorers of the year 1S35? What would not be the sensation created throughout the scientific and religious worlds if the American ex plorer now searching for prehistoric relics in this "roof of the world" were to find undisputable evidence corrobo rating the .Biblical story of the cre ation? On the very spot where Adam was created to dominate the world and the creatures thereof and where Eve was brought into existence, may there not be found proofs of their origin and of the tragedy which drove them forth in shame? Here, where time has stood" still, where a people older than any known en earth are living in patriarchial style, may there not be found some thing which will bridge the chasm from the present time to that of the first man?

A mosaic is a jvork framed bv the use of Hes- i serae" or small cubes of enamel, mar ble or other material and of a gold-and-silver leaf between two films of the purest glass of various colors. which are skiilfullv mixed on ement so as to produce the effect of .a picture. The composition of .human figures in diffrent attitudes, -animals, draperies or other objects repuiring a careful de lineation are intrusted to the best workmen and the execution of the background to iess trained workmen- The splendid mosaics which are made at Venice continue to be in great de- , mand in the artistic markets of the i world for the skillful manner in which I the tesserae are arranged, for their ex- I treme beauty and delicacy of color, the rich harmony of effect and from their being nearly indestructible. The man- , nenin which mosaics are now- made for decorative pumoses is quite dif ferent from the elaborate system taed by the ancients, which consisted in fix ing the tesserae one by one on the cement previously applied on the wall. The modern method of the Venetian school cpnsists in executing the mosaic H ? PA-3TcJc3 a GARDEN OF EDEN. in the workshop by having the tesserae ( fixed with common paste on the section of the cartoon assigned to each work man. When all the parts of the mosaic are complete they are put together on j the floor or on a special wooden frame. The mosaic, which is then a perfect representation of the original cartoon, , is again divided into sections on the reverse side, marked with a progres- j sive number and carefully packed to J be sent oft to the place for which it is ; intended. The surface of the wall ' vihere the mosaic is to be fixed is then ' covered with cement, into which the sections of the mosaic are uniformly pressed according to their numbers j and the key-plan supplied to the fixers. When the cement has hardened the I paper on which the tesserae have been ' pasted is gently taken off and the faith ful copy of the original cartoon is again j exhibited on the right side.

Mr. Peary determined to map the entire northern coast from Victoria Inlet to Cape Bismarck. The expedition of ' 1533-94 was organized for that purpose. Driven back ia the spring of 1S94. he determined to make another attempt in the spring of 1S25. Scientific instruments, camera and a full supply of provisions- for the Kite were put aboard the Portia, and the little steamer was crowded to the rails with boxes and -barrels. The little Eskimo girl Echi-ocha has been Irving with Mrs. Peary in j Washington. She had become recon ciled to her daily bath and eats with relish food that she could not taste when she came here, a year ago. She is down-on the passenger list as Miss ."Bill." ; Mrs. Peary did not sail. She wanted to go. but the party dared not take her , 2-year-old daughter, and she would not leave her at home.

Grant, portions of which are printed in the Century for July: A year .and a half later a circus-rider entered his village. Desiring to see the show, Gurando Kuen-, on his father's arm. entered the place. Point ing to the horse, he insisted on riding it himself. Hi3 father consequently asked the circus-rider to let his boy ride. Gurando Kuen, showing in his face perfect satisfaction, rode on the neck of the horse and appeared to be persuading the horse to go. One day. when he was older, he was playing ball by his own house, and he accidentally broke a" glass window of his neighbor. Having regretted what he had done, he made up his. mind, and went into the neighbor's house, and excused him- self to the lord of the house, sayicg: I accidentally broke the window of thy honorable house. I have no word to excuse myself. The only thing I can do is to my father tell, a new glass win- dow buy, this loss repay. Please ex cuse." This house lord, having been much pleased with this child's unusual thoughtfalness. without any condition excused his sin. Indeed.

Adam .was gravely watching ta proceeding, and. suddenly descending into the neighbor's yard, he seized a kitten as he had seen the cat do. and with it dangling from his jaws, he scrambled up the fence. He was not slow either, for right behind him was Mrs, Cat with her back up and her tail as big as a muff. Along the fence to the window Adam ran, and jumped into the room.

Mrs: Cat knew no stopping, however, and through the glass she dashed, and after Mr. AdanL Walker managed to separate them, but not un til he was scratched and bjtten. too.
