J There was such a rosy flush on her cheek, so bright a gleam in her eye, and on his face such an utter abandon of joy, that any one, even a man, could have guessed tho truth. ' ' Fortunately they had chosen the hill road, the least ' traveled of all the ways that lead down from the Montecito valley into Santa Barbara, and for the first half hour after the event they met no one. It was what the inhabitants of the v Channel City call a "genuine Satrta Bar bara day." Tho, sun "shone warm and bright and a soft perfumed breeze came out of tho wost. There was June in the air, although tho calendar was set for mid winter. The birds sang in the trees above thorn, the squirrels chirped from the hill side, and their horsos wandering at times from the road, sank to theknoe in a wav ing soa of flowers. - - NX "First of all," sho said, breaking the si lence of a whole minute, "you musfctell my father." , ' . . . " "x. "Certainly,": said the young man,- "Who's afraid?" "You have nover seen papa do the role of the cruel parent," said the girl. "He can be quite a dragon. As you are a kins man, however" "A fifth cousin, ". cried the young man, ' with a laugh. "Well, fifth cousins are better than noth ing, aren't they?" "Truly; how else should we bo here to day?" Then the young man dded with peculiar and significant emphasis, "I am inclined to pride myself on that little scheme." The girl brought her horso to a sudden stop and turned her clear brown eyes, half opened under their long lashes, upon her companion. - "That littlo scheme, she repeated slow ly. "I don't understand." -j The young man laughed uneasily. 'Whv. Catherine." said he. "you don't mean that you have belioveri in tho enter taining fiction a bout our great-great-et- cetera-grandf at her ?' "Old Ebenezor Strong?" exclaimed the girl. "How dare you call him fictitious, when I saw his portrait at my own grand father's." : i "As your ancestor, my dear one, he is an undoubted reality, out as mine, a re gret to say,; he is merely a figment of your worthy father's imagination. ; In short I would fain break it. to you as gently ns possible-we are not fifth cousins at all, but just plain ordinary" j . - "Not fifth cousins!" !- "So, darling, and if you are going to faint pleaso fall on this side, with your head right here on my shoulder." . - "I won't! Wretchea boy, now coTua you deceive poor papa so?" '.-! "I didn't deeeivehim. Heleceived nim- self. , From the very beginning or our tB quaintanco he seemed determined to locate mo somewhere on the Weston family tree, and you aided and abetted him in the at tempt." ! " Richard Strong, now can you : "I have a sweet and gentle disposition, and when he asked mo if I was not de scended from Ebenezer Strong of West Brighton Center, and you looked at me so appealingly" ; ; I. "I didn't any such tningi r "Why shouldn't I assent? I have doubt less bad several hundred ancestors named StronK. and I took the chances that some one of .them rejoiced in the jjraenomen of Ebenezer. It is just the sort of a name that my forbears were given to putting upon themselves, as an effective and con tinuous mortuication or the nesn. a norse hair shirt, now. would be nothing to it." "You may rangh, if it pleases you, said the girl severely; "but if papa had known you were not a relative we should not be riding alone together, lie generally aisap proves of the eastern people who spend the winter at the hotel." ; j "If you really feel that I have been guilty of false pretenses,' , said the young man, drawing his horse a little nearer, "suppose we begin allover again. "Keep your; distance, Birr ; exclaimed the cirl. steering to the opposite side of the road. "If we are to start afresh, let it be from tho very beginning, three weeks ago."' ",T "Now. as to your lather, " resumed me vonna man, A tninK a unacrsremu uiu Drettv well, because my one ano oniy par ent, the governor himself, is constructed on much tho same plan. Wherever ho goes he is continually in search of the lost tribes of the Strong genealogy. The last letter I had from him in Colorado, where ne M Bnonding the winter, contained tne an nouncement that he had uneartneo iour or five new cousins choice ; specimens, A doubt not. that he will expect me to meetr and embrace on my way home. "Perhaps it was wrong, he continued after a moment of reflection, "to play upon that little peculiarity of your father's, to irtt into hia good graces, but you must consider the extraordinary provocation, dear. It seemed like my only chance arc von sorrv I took it?" : - - - . .. . . 1 She looked her answer, dub aia noi spbhk it. and then, avoiding the hand extended to seize her own, she struck her horse a nrhrr Mow and dashed down tne road ahead. ' ' A long esren canter in silence followed, and they were well into town before the conversation began again. Then, fearful of observation, they spuke in common places. ' - y Thov tnrned into State street and stop r,i at. thn DostofSce. the morning's mail having constituted the chief cause for the trio to town. Richard Strong oismounieu Bnd presently appeared with a letter in his hand. ' ; "None for you." ho said. "Thisis for me, from the governor. ' I'll wager it Las something in it about'cousiiif!." "Xiet mo see," said tho girl, holding out her hand. He toro tho letter oren and cave it to her. Then he swung himself into his saddle, and they started slowi down the street. Suddenly the girl gave a faint c'ry: "Papa has been writing to him !" sho exclaimed. . "Writing to him? What for?" - "He has asked him to pay ns a visit on the score of relationshiD. and your fa ther" , . "' y, j "Well?" said the young man excitedly. "He says he will start immediately the ery next day." "Let me- see the date of -tho letter. Yo gods! It has been delayed! He must have got here this morning!" - , "The train has been in two hours," she laid, glancing at her watch. "I must see him immediately," said her companion, nervously turning his horse first one way and then another. "Who would have dreamed that both the old boys would take that uouslnship so seriously?" "I did, sir. I knew from the very begitr- ning that It would make trouble some time." - , "From the very beginning?" repeated the young man, pausing in his excitement long enough to note the force oi wis chance admiasv "So you acknowledge, do you" . . - "Thoro's t. bus-" cried the girl, hastyy chaDi:-'lUt.Ojo subjgotl' Perhaps the 6Avee can tell us something." f A long, empty vehicle was passing' them j on its way tip the street; Strong called to I tne cinver, and he stopped, v! "Did you bring up a tall gentleman this morning, with a white mustache and goatee and gold eyeglasses?" "xes, sir. Your . father,- don't you mean?" The young neonle exchanged, startled glances. ' "How did you know?" . "He was inquiring for you. sir. as soon as ever he got to the hotel, and when he round you were gone he went and hired a buggy." . A buggy what for?" "He asked the way to Judge Weston's place in the Montecito. He said the judge was a near relative of his." "A near relative!", groaned the horrified Strong,-while his companion turned awav her face, although whether to conceal a look of anguish or a laugh will never be known. - . ' The omnibus proceeded on its way. : "We must hurry," said the young man. spurring his horse to a canter. "The less time they have together before explana tions are made the better .Tr- "What do you think they will do?" asked the girl. . j I don t dare to think. You see on ev erything except this family tree business our respective parents are as far apart as civilized humans can be. Your father, now, is an elder in the church, while mine has lost all the religion he ever had, and he has never recovered from the habit of using swear words acquired during years of service in the regular army." , "Oh, dear! Oh, dear!" "Then, again, Judge Weston is an ar dent Republican." "And is your father a Democrat?" "Worse than that he is a Mugwump." "How interesting! 1 have always longed to see one of them. " "And my father believes that Bacon wrote Shakespeare's plays." -. ; -Heavens! Let us ride faster. Papa will have slain him before we get there." "Really, Catherine." said : the young man, when they had slackened their pace to climb the hills, "it would not surprise mo if they positively refused to enter into partnership as fathers-in-law." "Never mmd, Richard," said the girl smilingly. "Father has never yet refused me anything when my happiness was at stake, as it is now." Strong shrugged his shoulders. "Mine has, " he anowered. "He is made of flint, the old general, and if he should take it into his. head to say no it would be awk wardln ways I don't like to mention." "Never mind," said the girl, , smiling again and lifting her veil to the rim of the jaunty sailor hat. f 1 And a moment later the young man felt much encouraged and the gallop was re sumed- On a slight knoll surrounded by a grove of live oaksNind faced with an -avenue of old palms stood the ample-residence of Judge Weston. Asvthe young people came through the gate and entered upon the graveled roadway theybbserved two elderly gentlemen emerge fromasmall forest of rosebushes and start briskly down the path toward them. Presently the shorter of the two took his companion's arm, and they walked along in evident peace and amity. :; ' "They haven't found it but yet," the young man whispered. Judge Weston assisted his daughter to alight. "Catherine,'' said he, "this is General Strong, the . father of our young friend." ' The general bent low in an old fashioned obeisance, -and Miss Catherine instinctive ly made him a courtesy out of the minuet. "Father!" i "Dick, my dear boy!" i ' ' See here, ' ' exclaimed the judge sudden ly. "You wero mistaken, Richard, in what you told- me about old Ebenezer Strong." , . The young man braced himself for a struggle. - ' "And to think, Dick," cried the general reproachfully, "that-you never once men tioned to the judge that your great-greatgrandfather, Hezekiah Strong, married a Weston." , "And that brings us even nearer than we had supposed," added the. judge; "fourth cousins instead of fifth." "It was stupid of me . to forget tMstt," said the young man huskily. "And now that I have seen Miss Cath erine," said the general, taking her hand and passing his arm about her waist, "my only regret is that the relationship is not several degrees nearer yet." . Then Catherine looked at Richard, and he told what had happened on the way to town. Straightway there was a great amount of handshaking and a good deal of kissing done in broad daylight under the palms. Charles Dwight Villard in Land of Sunshine. SARDINE FISHING. The Process From the Time or the Catch to the Canning; and Cooking. ' Toward the end of April thesardine fishermen along the coast of Brittany begin to watch for the bubbling of the sardines on the surface of the sea.. For they know that vast shoals of the little fish are on their way from the coast of Africa up through the bay of Biscay to Jl . .11 ... 1 ll l .A.. A tne norm, ana mat rney muse necaugnt, if at all, as they pass. When any one sees the water agitated, word spreads rapidly and the boats put out from the shore and race to Jhe shoal. When the net is extended, the water is "baited" by throwing balls of "roque" into it. Aa the bait dissolves and sinks the sardines rise and remain long after to nibble it, and their doom is sealed. For this reason "roque" is a most important part of the sardine fish erman's outfit It is made of the eggs of mackerel and . codfish mixed with clay, and is rather expensive, costing from 25 shillings to 70 shillings a barrel, j Within the curing factories or can neries everything is bustle and confu sion, for there must not be a moment's delay in cleaning the fish. All night long the work is carried on by the light of blazing oil wicks. The sardines are spread out on benches or tables, where salt is dusted, over them. Then the women go along and snip off the heads with great scissors.; s The little flat boxes so .well known to commerce are taken one by one and filled from tho glistening pile bt, fish, after which pure olive oil from the province of Bari, in Italy, is poured over them and the tops soldered on In the meantime a great caldron of hot water has been raised to the boiling point ready for tho real operation of cooking the fish. The sealed boxes are thrown into it and left for two orJthree hours. If any oil appears on the top of the water, the master workman knows that some can has not been properly soldered, and the loss is charged up to the man who did the work. A good workman will pot lose more than two or three boxesin lOO.New York Re corder. - . - . - The Work of the Heart. One of the most remarkable things Itbout the heart is the amount of work it does. Considering' the organ, as a pump whose task is to deliver a known auahtitv of blood against a known "head, " it is easy to show that in 24 hours a man's heart does about 124 foot tons of work. "In other words," says a contemporary, "if the whole force ex pended' by the heart in 24 hours were gathered into One huge stroke, sucba power would lift 124 j;ons one foot from the ground. A similar calculation has been made respecting the amount of work expended by the muscles involved in breathing. In 24 hours these muscles do about 21 foot tons of work.

"As yon are kind enough to help me, fesadam, there's a sick lady in a private cabin who needs . some attention. Mrs. Jephson, a young widow lady. The doctor says her heart is weak. ;No. 4 cabin." i ; The passenger entered on the ship's list In the name of Mrs. Marshall took her way to Iho cabin indicated and opened the door. ' - ' ' a , The stewardess tells me you are ill. She is very busy at present. Can I do any thing for you?" . My head, moaned the sufferer, closing her eyes again "I can't bear the pain.!'; A slight expression of contempt crossed the face of the woman. Hor desire to help the stewardess had risen solely from the Wish to occupy hor hands. She bent down by the sufferer and began to rub her forehoad with the practiced hand of the masseuse. Before half an hour had elapsed tho pained expression had fled from Mrs. Jephson 's face and she lay sleeping as peacefully as a child. i "If I spend my life searching for him, 1 will track him down," said Mrs. Mar shall. "To leave me for another woman perhaps such a weak fool as this!" j In her sleep Mrs. Jephson had tossed the coverlet from her shoulders. Her night dress had comet upfastened at tho throat, and the keen eyes mat watched her caught sight of a small white silk case that, even in sleep, was pressed to her bqsom. -; . - ):. Ane pnoto or tne dead husband or the portrait of the new lover," said the watch er sneeringly. "Come, I WiHlook at the face of the man who is guarded so jealous ly." ' y With a deft, duick moVommt shn un loosed the case from the small fingers. A taint sign escaped the sleeper, but her reg ular breathing told that as yet she was unconscious. . - The thief rose to her feet and stole cau tiously to tho porthole. Her long fingers untied the string that fastened the silk case, and in another second the precious contents were in her hand. I "A photo wrapped in a letter! As I sus pected, the husband is forgotten for the lover." - - . . ; The masses of "water surged heavily against the porthole and obscured the light. Mrs. Marshall hold the photo up t; the round aperture- and peered closely at me reatures. , "Heavens! Harry!" 'p The cold, contemptuous woman had dis appeared. In her place stood one whose features, distorted with passion, bore the aspect of a fiend. H Her trembling hand, still clutching the photo, opened the sheet of paper. The let ter was short. The contents ran thus: ;. My Own Daruko Nbij To avoid susnicion follow me by the next boat. Shall meet yoo at New York. Darling, my marriage has been hell. With you my life will be paradise. Bless you, my own aarnng, in giving your dearest self to yours in life and death, Harry. The reader's breath came In deep, con vulsive palpitations. Great drops of mois ture trickled down her livid face. Her eyes wero uxed in awful dilation upon the words that mocked her by their love. ! j The ship swung heavily to one side. The Sleeping woman uttered a faint moan, and hernand closed unconsciously over her bosom. i Still holdlngthe photo and letter in her fingers, t he watcher crept to the 6ide of the berth. . ' "Delivered into my hand! Heaven, I thank thee for this justice." Sa That cunning, stealthy look that marks tho eye of the maniac was in the face' that, peered over the sleeping woman. i A small pillow lay near at hand. With unfaltering fingers the forsaken wife grasped the innocent looking object and held it a few inches above the mouth j)f the woman who had supplanted her in her husband's heart. -jf.- But 'even as she lowered ,the pillow that should suffocate the life of the frail wom an who lay helpless in her power the look of madness faded from her eyes. She rose from her knees. SI "A painless death! No, there is a sweeter revenge than that, She shall live and suffer." . ; . When Mrs. 'Jephson awoke from her sleep, it was to find Mrs. Marshall sitting patiently in the same place by the side Of her berth. r i The invalid uttered some words of thanks, and though inwardly shrinking from the cold face that confronted her gaze folt compelled to accept the minis trations that her self installed nurse insist ed on showering upon her. As the weather improved, the nurse Insisted upon Mrs. Jephson leaving her cabin and coming on deck. - M ' "You will feel the benefit of the fresh air," she said, installing herself by the side of the deck chair in which Mrs. Jeph son reclined languidly. "Alas, would that my pains could be as easily cured as yours!" " . ' : 4 ' ' H "You are .in trouble? .Can I do any thing for you? You have been so kind to me that I should like to help you, if I can." The sweet voice rang harshly upon Mrs. Marshall's ears. "My trouble is mental," she Eaid, try ing to subdue the harshness of her own tones. "Another woman has robbed ine of my husband's love, and my heart is broken." Mrs. Jephson had fallen back in the chair, her hand pressed to her side. f j "I see you are sorry for me," went on the cold voice, while the speaker's eyes gazed triumphantly at the sudden white ness that blanched the check. " You can not understand why; a woman should j be so wicked as to rob another .of jthe husband she loved. When the storm raged the other day, one of the sailors said there must be a Jpnah on board But you are faint, Mrs. Jephson." - M A broken gasp came from the Invalid's llpS. ' Mrs. Marshall seized tho cold hand that hung limply down by the deck chair. j ."May heaven curse this wicked woman who has supplanted me. May she live to see herself thrown aside, and may she suf fer as -1 have suffered. May every blight fall upon her who has robbed me of my Harry." "Harry!" The white lips breathed tho name in an dibly; ho hazel eyes opened with" 'a look of torture in their depths. . ," I am the wife of Harry Carstairs, and may my curse fall upon his But the words fell upon deaf ears. y very saa news, sir. ane lady you came to meet died suddenly of heart dis ease two days ago. Mrs. Marshall here will tell you all about it." And as Harry Carstairs reeled against the wall of the captain's cabin his Wife confronted him, her thin lips fixed in a terrible smile.

Mr. Foster drew from his pocket a bunch of Keys, and selecting a small steel oe he slipped it off from the ring and laid it on the floor of the car directly over the motor. When the current of electricity struck the key, it raised it up until it stood perpendicularly. Then, as the current became stronger and lighter by turns, the key began to perform come strange gyrations, bobbing up and down and jumping around. Every eye in the car had been upon Mr. Foster while he was preparing forJiis experiment, and the surprise that was depicted upon the coun tenances of that carload of people when the gyrations commenced was laughable in the extreme, and Mr. Foster enjoyed -JM more than" any one else.
