ANDSOME Lawrence Mere dith stood spell bound before his finished pic ture, while he light breeze from an open window tossed his wavy hair about his brow. He was charmed and delighted witn nis own handiwork, but it was , some thing more than the mere beauty of his model s face that caused his heart to beat so raptur ously. Oh, how ha loved her ! but she. roor cirl. sittms: bo wearily m a distant corner, did not dream of what was passing in his mind Suddenly he turned his eyes in her - direction and a look of astonishment crossed his handsome face. Could it be possible that thoss were tho features which he had so cleverly portrayed upon the canvas? There were flashes of fire in the sweet blue eyes now and tho delicate mouth was curved in an expression of bitterness that he had never seen be fore. He was amazed at tha sudden revelation, for in all his weeks upon the picture he had never seen that etransrelv bitter expression upon her w face before. ; Ho crossed the room and spoke to her pleasantly, even tenderly, and was intensely relieved to see the bitter ness -partially disappear before the tenderness of his manner. "You are very tired, Yioletta," he said eentlv. "and I am so sorry ! But the picture is beautiful ! Exquisite ! With a sudden movement Violett sprang from her chair and ran hastily across the floor. "Ho loves his pic ture, but not me," she muttered anrrilv as she left the room. "Fool that I am to think that he would care for me ! He is bound body and soul to his art. What is the pretty face of a woman to him but a model for his wonderful creations?" After she had gone, Lawrence Mere dith stood a moment in thought, then lighted a cigar aui drew tho chair be fore the easeL lie iiaa woraea 60 hard on that last picture. His moJel's face had haunted him from the first, but as days went by and he realized that he was dailj loving her more and more, a new purpose seemed to take possession of his soul and fill his brain with tender fancies. He wa3 an honorable fellow and ho knew he was too poor to marry. He determined at onco that he would never speak ono word of love to Vio- letta until he was fully able to lead her to the altar and giro her at last a comfortable home. He felt that she was learning to love him, and although it was hard to see her daily and not speak of what was in his heart, he wits, in a measure, contented when ho thoueht of the blis3 that would shortly to reward him for his hours of self-denial. "For he had decidod from the first that this picture of Violetta should brine him fame and fortune. He would not sell it, of course, but the picture should be sent to 'the National Academy's exhibition, and if it was a success the orders that he wonLl receive would start him in a lucrative profession. Now that the nictnre was finished he was almost happy. It was only that momentary expression upon his model's face that brought a shadow to his own. What could it mean? Was Violetta un happy? Had she any tormenting secret, or was it the pain of parting with him that had distorted her face with such sudden bitterness? Then it occurred to him that he had not even bade her good-night, and this was the last of her daily sittings. The memory startled him a little and he looked in his pockets for the ad dress that she had given him. "I will go and see her this evening and arrange for other sittings," he said to himself as he read the little scrap f paper that he "found in his pocket book. An hoar later he was on his way to Violetta's humble lodgings. It was a dreadful disappointment to. learn thU she wa3 out. "She had not returned from her afternoon's sitting," the old landlady told him. Absently, Lawreace catered a res- Mi mm taurant and ordering his evening meal, then he went slowly back to the studio, intending to write her a lengthy letter. He wonld not tell her that he loved her yet, but would sim ply explain that he had decided to paint another picture, and would con tinue to require her services if she were not already fatigued from her weeks of tiresome sittings. He entered the studio without his key, bnt some way it did not occur to him that he had locked the door care fully when he left it early in the even ing. Without even glancing around he stepped across the room and raised the gas jets higher, then turned to gaze upon his picture. Horror of horrors ! What had hap pened? His eyes nearly burst from their sockets as ho gazed upon the ruin of that which was to bring him fame and happiness. Violetta a lovely face hal been slashed into atoms and the torn shreds of the canvas dangled from tho easel in a manner that nearly drove him in to frenzy. With a hoarse cry ho flung himself upon the floor and groaned in the ag onv of suirit: "Oh. God! Must I give up all?" he cried, brokenly; "my beautiful picture, my treasured hopes! Oh. Violetta. if you only knew! If you were only here to seo and under stand!" For a few moments everything else was forgotten, then the question sud denly entered his mincl, who could have done this shameful deed? He sprang from the floor and glared ancrrilv about the room. Inere was no one there and no traces of any one having been there, except the condi tion of the picture itself until his eve fell suddenly upon the chair that he had drawn before the easeL What was that small, dark object lvinz carelessly across the cushion? He bent and picked it up absently, but with a feeling of horror creeping slowly about his heart. It was one of Viotetta s gloves. He had noticed them day after day as she drew them on over the slim, white hand at tho close of each afternoon s sitting. Her treachery was as clear as day to him now. for the srlove had not been there when he drew the chair before the easel after her departure that evening. His brain reeled at the thought now, not so much at the loss of the picture, but at the horrible disappointment in the woman he so deeply loved. There was madness m his eyes as he glanced again about the brilliautly lighted room. Violetta was lost to him and tho world had suddenly be come both cold and bitter. Ho rose from his chair and began searching among his paints' with a feverish lustre. It was nearly midnight when Vio- lettn reached her room, bhe was wretchedly unhappy and the memory of her evening's work made her trem ble a littl even in the safety of her chamber. Oh, how she worshiped the courtly t -. -i 1 young arcist wno naa aiwaya ueeu bo gentle and kind to Vr an' wuo ma-ny times had pressed nor nana wica a tendernes3 not unlike a3ectioa. Day by day her heart had gone out to him until now every fibre of her being was vibrating with the fierceness of her passion. Not until to-night, when he was ad miring his own handiwork, did a sug gestion of jealousy cross her mind. But now she was jealous madly, furi ously jealous of that painted picture, and in the frenzy of that madness she conceived a cruel, heartless plan. It was over almost before she knew it, not, however, as she had at first in tended it, for at the very last moment affection conquered and reason guided her a little. Now, after the deed was done and aha was alone in the seclusion of her room, she grew more calm and began to be ashamed of her evening's work. She tried to sleep, but the artist's sad, reproachful eyes seemed to haunt her constantly. Over and over his voica was whispering in her ear, "Why could you not have trusted me, Vio letta," until at last she sprang from her bed in a perfect agony of remorse and fear. She glanced at her watch and saw that it was nearly one o'clock ; the key of tho studio was in her pocket, for of late Lawrence had given her permis sion to enter at her will, rather than wait in tho hall outside when he chanced to be late at his appoint ments. It was dark, but she was not afraid, and 6he dressed herself as quickly and silently as possible. "He shall not see it," she whisper ed, over and over in reproachful ac cents. "It was cruel of me to even think of such a thing." There was a bright light in the stu dio window when she reached the door and her heart beat furiously as she paused for one timid moment to Us ten. Yes, Lawrence was there ; she could bear him fumbling about among the bottles. Almost instinctively she turned to run away, but something stopped her abruptly upon the stairs, while a shiver of horror suddenly passed over her. She returned cau tiously and ben ling, put her eye to the keyhole in the door. Great heavens! What was the man about to do? He was standing before the ruined canvas, One hand clutchin j wildly at his throat while in the other, held steadily to his lips, was a bottle she had often seen, with a skull an i crossbones on its IabaL With a shriek of horror she opens! the door and rushed headlong into the room. "Oh, Lawrence? My darling. Don't! Don't!" she shrieked frantically, but Lawrence, still holding the bottle, only turned angrily and pointed to the dangling canvas. "You have ruined my lite, ne be- . . ' A - gan Hoarsely, "uy aesiruyiug my faith and trust in yon," nut beiore h could say more, something so strange had happened that for a moment he seemed thoroughly dazed by a sudden revulsion in his feelings. With a swift movement, Violetta had torn the mutilated canvas from its fastenings, and in another instant the beautiful picture of herself had been drawn from behind a VllQ 01 "amea and wa3 standing, in all its glory, ia its proper place upon tho easel. Then it was that Yioletta ten at nt3 feet and tearfully begared for pardon ; "I was jealous of your picture, so 1 came here after you had gone de termined to destroy it, but some way," and her voice was thick with sobs, "some way, I could not do it, after all, so I played this cruel trick upon 70." . . ... Lawrence stood almost breathless as she hurried on. "I could not sleep after I had gotten home, and that is why I returned to put the picture back beforo yon had seen it and learned my jealous nature." The poor girl broke down com pletely in tho midst of her confession, but the artist, without so much as a glance at the lovely picture, bent, with a look of love and raised her gently from the floor. "Ton have saved me, darling, audi must forgive you," he whispered. "It was all my fault that you were kept in ignorance of my love, but now that tho picture is safe and my fondest hopes are not destroyed, I can tell you freely how I lova you, li tie one, and what that picture that you were so jealous of, will some day mean to you and me." He placed her in a chair; then.tak ing the fatal bottle, went quickly across the room and dropped it harshly on tho marble hearth. The young girl waited, still tremb ling in the chair where he hid placed her, but before he returned to tell her the story of his love, Lawrence Mere dith ground the fragments of glass be neath his feet as if he were destroying forever the malice of soma dead ene my. New York Mercury. Odi Barometers. Two of the oldest and oddest barom eters, says a writer in the London Spectator, are the leech in a bottle and a frog on a ladder. Mr. Richard In wards ha3 seen an old Spanish drawing of nine positions of the leech, with verses describing its attitude and be havior before different kinds of weath er. Dr. Merry weather, of Whitby, contrived an apparatus by which one of twelve leeches confined in bottles ran a bell wli9n a "tempest" was ex- noMnA. When leaches were kept in every chemist's shop, and often in pri vate houses, their behavior was the subject of constant observation; and it wa3 generally noticed that in still weather, dry or wet, they remained at the bottom, but rose, often as much as twenty-four hour3 in advance, be fore a change ; and, in case of a thun derstorm, rose very quickly to the sur face, descending when it was past. Tho frog barometer, used in Germany and Switzerland, is a very simple ap paratus, consisting oE a jar of water, a frog and a little wooden step-ladder. If the frog comes out and sits on the steps rain iB expected. The weather glass dearest to the old-fa3hioned cot tage in the last generation was the "old man and old woman," who came out of their rough-cast cottage in foul nr fair -weather resDectively. This was almost the earliest of semi-scientifio toys, and depended on the contract ing of a piece of catgut fastened to a lever. The belief that bee3 will not fly before a shower is probably true, and is the rational origin of the bang ing of trays and iron pots with a door key when bees are going to swarm. The insects are supposed to take this for thunder, and - so settle close at hand, instead of swarming at a dis- tance. Squirting water on xnem wuu garden syringe often makes them set tle at once. But no such ingenious process of rationalizing can b3 fouui for the belief that if the insect inside cuckoo-spit lies head upward, the sam mer will be dry, though the increased worrying of horses by flies before rain, aud the rise of the gossamer before fine weather, are abundantly confirmed by observation. Popular Science Monthly. A Yellow Calla Lllr. The white calla lily of our gardens is well known, it still retaining the original name of Calla, although bot anists have in modern times removed it to anot ler genus, which is called Richardia. Calla will, however, long bo its common name. It has been fre quently, hinted that there are speoies with other colors, which would soon come into cultivation ; but so far these have been mere rumors. It is now de finitely known that there is a bright yellow species, which has been named by botanists Calla Elliottana. The one iu cultivation, known as Richardia maculat3, has a slightly yellowish tint sometimes. The new one is said to ne a clear yellow, and has loaves spotted with white, similar to our common maculata. Only one original plant was introduced, and it is said there are only a few propagated frpm it in cul tivation. Ten plants were recently sold at auction in London, and bought by enterprising florists for $2030, which is considered the largest figures ever obtained for auction plants. An other yellow one ha3 been introduced nuder the name of Calla Pentlandi, which is said to differ in having larger foliage and richer colored spathes, but which has not yet been o3erel to the traie.
