' 2 MAJiCA.. Well, Bianca, darling, I'm glad this couain ot yours is coming to Oakwold." "Why, Anthony?" " Because you need society, and that of Eaatbury is rather too, orthodox and primitive for your taaten. As for my ovn, my medical labors have become no longer a sinecure since old Doctor Tar ton's death, and you see very little of me during the daytime, just at present." "Indeed, that is true, Anthony ;" and IWntiful Bianca Stanley clasped those graceiul arms of hers very . lovingly abonther young husband's neck. " I mias you more tlian words can telL somo times. You remember what pleasant mornings we used to spend during May tho first month after our arrival at Oakwold ? You read me those charming 'IdyLi of the King, and it was all no delicious; and now" Now I am a man of leisure no lon ger," Anthony Stanley interrupted, " but one of the busiest doctors in all the county, perhaps. But, Bianca, I want to ask you a few questions about this xusin. Do you exactly relish the idea of her coming here to pay for her board ? I confess, candidly, that I do not." ULmea laughed merrily. " Perhaps I ought to feel very much afihamed of our limited circumstances, Anthony ; that's the way to express yourself, elegantly, I believe, when you want to say that you are not well off; Imt, somehow, I would just as lief the wholo world knew exactly how we are situated. Of course, Ellinor nndcr ntauds i .11 about it. Not having seen me since her return from France, hhe is anxious to spend a few weeks here at Oakwold Cottage, and I am immensely iuixioim to have her. Accordingly, she proposes doing so, instead of accompa nying her mother and sisters to Scar lxrough. She is not willing to make a third member of our family, you know, without" : " Yes, yes, I understand. Well, Bi luioa, you may take her payments for pin-money, if you choose. And now tell rao something about your cousin. What is ahc like 5" "Like a very lovely woman, An thony." "Handsome?" " Very. ' "Clever?" 4Ar a schoolmistress. You will be lelightcd with her conversation, I know. Hho has a faculty, people say, of making all other women appear stupid and triv ial by contrast." "Nonsense, Bianca. That simile of the schoolmistress was very poorly chosen, if you want to prepossess me with your cousin. I abhor schoolmis tre8ti. Just hand mo that bottle di rvctly behind your elbow, that's a dear." 3frs. Stanley turned toward the row of OiTtfJef? plr.eed upon a shelf in her hns surgery, in front of the desk at which Ltf was then seated. "WUch, Anthony? This one, con taining wliite liquid?" " Gracilis, no ! Tliat's a horribly poisonous compound. Imagine joor 3ra. Marlowe's feelings if I took over to hexjSck luilry a vial of that deadly stuff. Tho onetoth right of it, if you please. Thanks, my dear. And now, one more question. ' When is Miss Ellinor Erskine going to make her appearance at the cottage?" " To-morrow morning, she writes me. .'Awl we may expect her, for Ellinor is in fallible about keeping promises." The next morning Mirs Erskine justi fied her cousin's remark by arriving at Oakwold. The greeting which she re ceived from Bianca Stanley was warm and affectionate. The two ladies had been intimate friends for almost as long an each could remember, and the love wliich existed between them was, on Bianea's fide, at least, of the sincerest nature. Physically, they formed a striking contrast, Mrs. Stanley's delicato Yink-and-vhite complexion, pale-gold hair, and yntitr, figure being widely dif ferent from her cousin's statuesque, stately 1 cauty. It was beauty of a superb type, most people vre fain enthusiastically to ad mit on seeing Ellinor Erskine for the lirst time. Unusually tall, but of such perfect cnace. in her every posture and gture t kut tallness was a charm, not a defect; possosHing a skin of tho purest whiteness, hnir of that glossy blue-bhek hue which is so rarely sem, and eyes of kep, lustrous hazel; showing, in her lnann-r and conversation, all that the most 'cultivated, and fastidious taste ornild d'tfire, Miss Erskine was what we may term u fascinating woman in every .respect. The first evening following her arrival at Oakwold, fhe ooeompanied lier host and hostess on a twilight walk along tho exquisite wooded shore near wliich the cottage was situated a line of rugged, picturesque land, where rocks, and liowldcrs, and f ringy cedars made quite a 'Ixittlo for predominance, yet mingled their wild elements In one wilder sort of .harmony beautiful beyond expression. "We must show Ellinor the arm chair, Anthony," Mrs. Stanley remarked, na the party stood on a low cliff over hanging the waters beneath, bathed just then in the soft purple of sunset " It's only about a yard from where we now arc." " The arm-chair !" Miss Erskine said, in surprised tones. What can you pos sibly mean, Bianca?" "A perfect arm-chair," was the reply, " carved out of rock by that alow old sculptor yonder, the sea, Anthony and I discovered it about a month ago. They reached the spot presently, and found the curiosity Bianca had men tioned a muss of rock, so worn by the immemorial action of the waves below it as to bear an exact resemblance, legs omitted, to an exceedingly comfortable, commodious arm-chair. " Hew delightful 1" exclaimed Miss Erskine, seating herself in this piece of natural furniture. "I suppose you come here often, Bianca you and that loving husband of yours ?" with a glance of the young lady's hazel eyes in Doctor Stanley's direction. "There's ample room for two, by the way, isn't there ?" " Oh, yes," Bianca answered. "We do sit there now and then. Anthony read me Tennyson's Idyls' in this spot about a month ago." Mrs. Stanley's remark served to tnrn the conversation, during their homeward walk, upon literary subjects ; and, if her husband had not concluded that Miss Erskine's intellect was fully equal to her beauty, certain clever words which now fell from the lips of Bianca's cousin must have assured him that such was the fact. " I like her immensely," he said to his wife later that evening, when their guest had retired. "S!ie is certainly a very brilliant woman." "I'm so glad you think so," was the pleased response. " Ellinor is going to make your summer, as well as mine, An thony, very delightful, I am sure." Before many days had passed, Bianca Stanley had cause to recollect her prophecy with regard to Ellinor Erskine. . There seemed decided proba bility of her making Anthony's summer far more pleasant than his wife had anticipated Liking her cousin, Bianca began to tell herself, with an occasional pang of something very similar to jealousy, was a different matter from appearing almost fascinatod by that cousin's society. Ot course, the young wife mentally confessed, " I am just the least bit jeal ous. Why should I not feel a: ? It's perfectly natural. Anthony and I have been leading such a mutually devoted sort of existence ever since our marriage that it annoys mo to see him treat an other woman nolitelv. Bevond a doubt. he only means, to bo polite, nothing more. I am very foolisn, but I suppose the folly is common to most newly-married wives. " At the end of another fortnight, how ever, Bianca's slight annoyance had as sumed a far different form. It had grown to be a terror. She believed that he was in love with Ellinor Erskine. ltesolutely proud, she suffered her agony for agony it was, of the keenest sort to ln'tray itself by no word or sign. If her treatment of Ellinor Erskine showed faint traces of coldness she could not refrain from exhibitiog now and then, it was of so slight a nature as not to be observed by her husband. Several weeks wore away. Bianca's life had teeome a torture now. She sel dom joined in the conversation between Anthony and her cousin; she seldom in truded upon their lrequent tcte-a-tctcs. Some women would have shown their anguish in bitter upbraidings and pas sionate accusations; Bianca held her peace, and was wof ully miserable. She loved her husband with an intense depth of love, and was called upon daily to ob serve his reckless admiration of another woman. It was torment, and yet she spoke no word. "Yes, I am forced to go," Dr. Stanley said. "I had hoped to spend this lovely afternoon in your society, but a doctor proposes, a patient disposes, if you'll pardon my mutilation of an old proverb." "I am very sorry," Ellinor Erskine murmured; and those bewitching hazel eyes how utterly had they 1 switched the man who now stood beside her looked even more than the sorrow she professed to feci. " We were going to take a long walk together this afternoon, were wo not V " Yes. Don't speak alont it in that tone, please, or you'll make me do very desperate things in the way of profes sional neglect." "Ah, I have no such power over you, I fear," accompanying the words with a long, soft sigh. Dr. Stanley laughed an odd, harsh sort of laugh. "I have told you what power you pos sess, Ellinor; I have told you of the ab sorbing love that- " "Hush, Anthony, you are Bpcaking too loudly. We might be overheard 1" And Ellinor Erskine glanced toward one of the windows opening out from the veranda in which they stood. There was a faint rustle of one of the curtains at that window just then, which Miss Ers kine, if she noticed it, mistook for a mo tion caused by the light, September breeze. Dr. Stanley's tones had changed decid edly when ho again spoke: " Thomas is at the gate yonder with my carriage. Perhaps I shall be able to return sooner than I expect to do; but now I have no choice in the matter of remaining. We can take our walk at twilight, if I should return in time. That rocky arm-chair will bo a very pleasant spot for such a lovely evening as wo are promised. Good-by!" "Go)d-by !" she answered, 6miliug; and then their hands met Just at this moment, in the little surg ery at tlie rear of the cottage, thero stood a white-faced, wild-eyed woman, search ing for something among tho array of bottles on a certain shelf. That which she came to seek was found presently, and she clutched it with a Herce, eager grap, 1 lurrying, a moment later, from tho apartment " What a lovely evening ! Your proph ecy was a correct one, Doctor." "Y'es," Anthony Si-anley responded, as he and Miss Erskine strolled shore ward with slow, lingering steps. " J list watch tho waters. They are a perfect blozo of silver and crimson from here. Hayo you thought over all that I said, Ellinor, last evening ? Are you prepared to givo mo an answer about our Jtight, I mi au?" He was looking fixedly at her faee; but she avoided the clance. There are some women who love to stand upon the verge of moral precipices, enjoying the danger, but feeling secure enough, during its continuance, in their own powers of equipoise. Ellinor Erskine was such a woman. She hod cone to the utmost limit of a rtrpciniee now. and had looked down nnnn the perilous depths beneath her, and had enjoyeu tne excitement oi her uizzy posi tion, anu nou maintained ner cooi headednesa thrnnclinnt. Tt was time to draw bock. To have taken the leap, as this man at her side had been urging her to take, would have been an act of folly altogether ridiculous. "I must disenchant tho infatuated creature," she murmured to herself, "be fore we return to Oakwold." Then aloud, "I will give you my answer when we reach tho arm-chair, Doctor Stanley." They reached it soon afterward. Its high bock, carved from the living stone, roso up clear and distinct against the evening sky. "Heaven help mo, Ellinor, if that answer is not what I hope for!" he whispered. "Be tho passion sinful or righteous, I havo learned to love you. My God ! Bianca !" Ho stood frozen with horror now, gaz ing within the recess of tho rocky chair. Her face wearing tho unmistakable stamn of death, her croldcn tresses floating upon the soft breeze, one livid hand clenching a small vial-shaped bot tle, the other pressed convulsively ayrainst her bosom, Bianca Stanley sat Wllliin mo gramto urm-uuuir, ui-xjgui, chastlv. immovable. She had told the secret of her agony at List, and had told it in a voice of such terrible power and meaning that they who looked upon the awml rebuke or ner lifeless beauty must expiate their sin .1 1 wiin ineiong repentance i Catching a Bear with a Lariat. Mr. John Wilson, who lives on the Colorado river, near Beasley's, San Saba county, killed last week a -ery large browil bear. He was cow-hunting, and had a revolver with three barrels loaded when he came in eight of brum. He gave chase immediately, and with three balls wounded him slightly. Having no more ammunition, he had recourse to his lariat. Many times did the bear de tach the rope from his neck before it tightened around it, when finally Wilson checked the horse the instant the nooso was passing over tho bear's head. , A quick jerk with the hand, a hard pull from the saddle pommel, as the trained cow horse fell back on his haunches, and the fierce beast was secured. Then com menced a series of plunges, snarls, angry growls, and frantic efforts to sever the lasso; but with each struggle the rope became tighter about his throat. Final ly the air passages were closed, and the bear was, as the horso breaker styles it, choked down. Wilson sprung from the horse and fastened tho rope to a tree, then caught tho bear by tho hind feet and kept him stretched until ho quit btruggling. Then with a small but sharp-pointed pocket-knife he severed his jugular vein. The bear weighed 100 pounds when dressed. Galveston ( Texas) News. Russians With English Faces. The Russian soldiers seem to bo imi tating something besides tho tactics of the Teutonic army. They are well-behaved in camp and on the streets ; they pay for what they get ; they are not in temperate. "They walk along tho streets," says a correspondent of the Standard, " do their business, and take their pleasure with a simple, frank un consciousness that reminds one of no service in Europe saving the English." They not only act like British soldiers, but they even look like them. In figure, face, and expression, the correspondent adds, the Muscovite officer resembles his British contemporary more closely than he does the German. The affected stiff ness of the latter is wanting, while that frivolity which used to bo conspicuous has disMpneared. They live merrily, as why should they not, whose business 'tis to die, but they are prudent and decor ous withal. Such flowing of champagne was never beheld in Bucharest, but it llows with a pleasant ripple. The young fellows mind their own business, crack their jokca modestly among them selves, stare, not offensively, at ladies, and treat the civil population with a per fect courtesy. The physical resem blance to Englishmen can be traced even in the ranks. (Jen. (irant European Tour. In response to a letter of Elihu B. Washburne to ex-President Grant, in quiring whether he will visit Paris on lcaviug England, the latter replies that it will at present be impossible to do so, but that he may do so in September. His present intention is to make an ex tended European tour, embracing Swe den and Norway, and then, sailing down the Rhine, visit Switzerland, his pro gramme of route poosibly including the usual Italian cities visited by tonrists. Cable Dispatch. A Mathematical Prodigy. An Austrian boy, 13 years old, named Solomon Stone, attending school in New York, proves to le a mathematical prodigy.

High Blnffs. "They say the bluff are mighty high on the south side of tho Danube," re in irked one of a party who were about to drink at a saloon counter this morn ing. A th'rsty check-guerrilla seized the opportunity to ring in : " High bluffs, eh i Why, they ain't nothin' to what I see the other night. Why, I see Jim Omdorff plank up $250 on king high, and get away with the pot. Whatoha think o' that for a bluff?" Virgin ia (Act.) Chronicle. A vekt singular feature in the marine landscapes between Terre del Fuegoond the contiguous mainland is tho floating gardens of sea-weed. The plant fre quently grows to a length of between 300 and 400 feet. It gives cover and pasturage to every species of Crustacea, great and small, while the intertanglod mass, swaying like a ponderous enrta in in the water, effectually breaks the shock of the most tremendous rollers.
