At b-naJh th wedding dav tlrew
near. It had lieen arranged for

to leave for Niw York immediately
Iter the eereiiiouy. Cousin Jose,
mi M-iarei iiiinseu to looK

predated the honor However,5 he
forgave me" at this interesting
eMH-ii. and came iMMiigidv to bless

present a black oyux seal rug, on
which was set a cross in seed
earls. He vM offerei! me it once
efiire, with Ids affections and his
manse, and I had j then 1 refused it.
I tiHk it this time. 4
It help d ,f o 'swell th" list of mv
presents, and Ithey certainly made
a gtMslly show. First, there was
the Stamford estate from my
father and Stephen Barker, and the
settled bill for $1,00 worth of fur
niture which S'ephen had sent to
make the old rooms pretty and
comfortable. Uncle gave' me a s't
of silver, ainf aunt some fin ; china,
both of which gilts I took care to
send to Stamford lefore my wed
ding day. My cousins aud aunts
and friends gave; me all sorts ot
jewelry and pretty personal knick
knack', and these I carefully pack
ed in the half dozen trunks which
were already corded and directed
two days before the -marriage day.
i For Stcdieh had ' prKiHed.! to
semi all my trunks to "our New

oiiler that we inight have no con
eeru ahout them, land that I might
tie sure to have alj I wanted o'u my

first, but aunt said it was-eminently
proper and thoughtful." So

New York, oh the last day of my

Norman Strong calletl that night

I shall call you aliout 8 oVlock,

her good night, ;"lhe hair ilresser

.y sjiil : !'Veryj well, aunt," aud
went to my room. The first thing
I did was to pack tiiy wed'ing
dress in as small coin pass as possi
hie, and then pu im my travelling
costume. This done, 1 sat down in
the dark. About tme o'clock -I
heard he signal I watched for I
went softly doxyii stairs, unlocked
the back door and walked out
Norman was there. We did not
Seak until1 we.:, were outsile the
ground." There a- buggy : waited,
aud we drove rapidly to a main
line about three miles off. Here
we caught the 2 "o'chick express,
ami were safe' in New York and
very rethiectabty -? married by 10
oVlock Mv trunks, which had
arriveil the dny! Iiefore, were then
re-diietel ' for j Washington,' ami
after a delicious, little wedding
break fast all by - ourselves we
left for that city. ('
In the meintinie there was trou
ble enough in Mill ford. Our flight
was not discovered until near S '
iiVojk, ami then Uncle Miles sent
word at once to fetepheit liarker,
A lio secluded himself foi that d iy
entirely. My I aunt and cousiu's
chagrin and din ipoiiitmeiit were
ver great; in fact, when I consid
ered the amount of condolence and
gossip they would have to endure I
felt-that "for sill the'. sl;ghts and
mcotiis or my j unioveu ginuoou i
could cry quits. Aud-1 had got
my fortune also, ami Norman ami
I were so completely happy I We
had not a care, fir Stephen hal
given I. in a 500 bill aud a month'M
li diday, and told us to get all tlie
pleasure we could out of it We
obeyed him implicitly.
liariug that month things settled
down a little, f I did not . expect to
Ih forgiven all at oliee, an t I was
not; but 'then I was in a niti'Ui
not to worry paiticularly about t.
We returned) very quietly afier

children who (have played tiuant
all day and creep home at niglit

man went back to his desk, a id
Stejdien tookm more notice of ins
return than if he had never left. it.
People who had been speculating
about his losing his position knew
in five minutes tint there wonhHe
u change. And. every one took
his tone from Stephen. We were
treated very much like wocliihlreu
who had been forgive i, ami whose
fault was.uot to he throwu up to
b- thrown up to them.
Tnat was tlie way the men took
it, Ul Norinan apearnl to lie

great deal more intelligence. Ti ey

- Ullt wliatj most puzz!ed rV T.V.

had loved my mother dearly. Even
thoe who spoke kindly of him did
not give him credit for more than
half the iiohle unselfishness he had
shown for he would .not let me tell
any one that it was he himself who
had planned everything about thy

We known tietter, I and , we will
keep our se-ret until uucle Miles
(MUMes round." ; . j . ;
, Aunt and nude both came round
sooner than we expected. Whe
it was kuowif that Ste hen sMiit
so much of his time with us Aunt
Mjles considered the advantage of
naving uer uaugiiters familiarly in
contact with Kim, aud for their
sakes &he came to see me and gave
me the kiss of, reconciliation.
But as far as catching Stephen's
heart Hii thw. rebiuud" was con
cerneil, she was just t a little too
late. -NoruianV sister, who was a
teacher in otic of the public acho U
of New York, came to1 spem' her
vacation with us. and Stephen fell
in love wiili her in a way that con
vimnil uiethat his hive for Frances
Halliday had only lieen the shadow
of the love he had for lier mother.
Why, Normati hiuiself never tie
Iiaved more" foolishly shout m
than Stephen alut this little plain
Kutli Strong,: for she is plain -
evey one must allow that. j
And the preparations " that are
going on for the marriage otiite
amuse me, who might have been
the bankers wife myself. Dear
me, I think Lve uust laairh ai
the kind of people he.come iu con

doubtless say they don't lielieve
such men as Steoheu exist. But
'tH girl, wheu she discovers she
does not like a man, tell him so,
and ask nis ailvice and beln. and
ten to one she will, find; another
Stephen. How c. ii men be ehivvd

don't give them opportunities J I
think that is wrong, amlj I intend
ti give Norman every chaee to
cultivate such noble qualities. "

The origin of the Egyptian cam
paign dates from the reign of Is

ulous intriguer, who succeeded
Slid Pasha iu 18t3, and aintiimu
latetl a fortune from the! exporta
tii. of cotton during o ir eivi-. war.
This money he latisheif on Turkish
officials till he soon - found himself
a favorite with the Sill an ami en
dowed with almost xegal iniwer.
Ui'had been educated in Paris and
hi ambition - was to Enroeaiiize
Bgypl ami make Cairo the Paris of
the east, ' To accomplish this pur
pise he b irrowed money by; the
million at the most exorbitant rates
of interest. Tin's money was not
devoted to national purposes, but
was exeuded iu Oriental display ,
iu bribing favorite friends of the
sultan iu Constantinople, in cover
ing Egy pt with palaces, and stock
itlg harems The fellaheen, or na

pay the interest oil these lebts,
from which they derived no tieue

contracting, and. when the m- iiey
could not tie raised, the klodive's
tax gatherers used to surround tlie
villages, catch the inhabitants, ami

were paid ' 1
At last things come to such a
pass that Ismail could borrow no
in-ire "money, and the fallaheeu
could pay no more taxes. Iu the;

it owed t beiu exorbitant salaries.
A spirit of j diss isfaetioii soon
manifested itself, and a uational

that the average, attends ce on

aud tint the vast maj u ity of these
pupils are iu public a hools which,
at iH'st, iu Virginia, give five
mouths, but iu i several of those

tlie teachers in jthose schools are

- Buying Tree.
Every farmer should set a few
trees every year, and. he should
make i; his practice to decide'early
in the sen son what varieties to boy,
aud where it is best to buy hem.
As a rul4 it is best to buy of those
who have a nursery near enough to
visit; then the trees can be seen to
letter advantage, and a selection
can lie made to more nearly suit
the particular faticy of each par
chaser. ! There is a great choice in
trees; some may have been years -struggling
to get large enough tOY
be put on thejnarket, while! others 1
will lie j strong and vigorous from
the start, and get large enough for
the market in a very fe years. -
By selecting iu ihe nnrse'ov-if
b.-t growing and most healthy "
trees can lie residilyseleeted. In ,
the selection of varieties,! if fo'r 1
home. use. never rely entirely on
the ojiini ii of others; but examine
ami test the, fruit yourself; you ;
will thetf get undesirable rarities
quire often enough, but no as:
ofteii as it entire reliance be
placed oirothers. The tendebejtjs f
to set t.si many varieties ; rt few of.
the liest is uinch to be preferml, to
a large nnmlier which ramt neces-
sarily embrace many of only a fair;
quality. To gather the apples of anj
orchard that contains 50 or morej
varietiHs, is to say itlie least very
N-rplexing; if each variety! is to be,
kept by itself, it requires jthe con
stant presence of the owner, fur jio
ordinary lalmrer can ditingoish no
many varieties, even if he felt dis-
