Mr. Halifont strode at once intn
the room where he knew the househreak-
r wero at work, and, rnnninfin the dark
fo;'"at n powerful man, taekletl- him at
nee.
Tlie li-dit of the lantern 'flashed across
lllC room. There were two more men Thn...
iirainst one. The sound of blows, strol
ling and the report of a pistol aroused the
voting jjnfe once more. "Amidst her terror
she ha.n tho good sense to light the gas.
It shonw upon a spectacle of horror. Her
husband,' weltering in his blood, w restling
with a gi,'autio tuati, whose features were
concealed by a mask of black crape, a
man, the upper part of whose person was
clothed only in a knotty woolen shirt of
H'une dark color, with sleeves that left the
rest of his great arms bare. On the right
one, tho one which clutched Mr. Holifant's
throat, was a red mark or-brand, a scar, a
birthmark. It would have been impossi
ble, for Mis. Halifunt, even in a calmer
iirtiuent, to tell what it was, but it indel
ibly impressed itself upon her mind, as
nho hravely east herself into-the struggle,
and f.mght with all her might to drag the
terrible hand from her husband's' throat,
Bcreatning'all the w hile for aid.
A blow, a kick would have- silenced
her. Tho burglar must have jnown that,
but there nro very bad men who could not
use violence towards a woman to save
their own lives. This man could (not.
1IU companions had flown with their
booty; help might arrive at any moment.
"With a great effort ho wrenched himself
from the clutch of hid victim and sped a
way. It was not too soon; assistance ar
rived now, that it was too lute. Hut Mr.
Holifantdid not live to tell the story. lie
was mortally wounded. His young wife
oatehed by his bedside until he breathed
liij l ist; then dropped beside it senseless.
For weeks she raved, in wild delirium,
f tho murderous hand, of the great, mns-
'ulr nru,wItU cur upon it, and called
wpiiu them all to save her husband's life:
Itnt. she ajt young, and had a hue consti
tution. After a w Idle her health returned,
opd. at last, her mind reirainud its enui-
-poise.
She removed from the city and took 'up
tier abode in her lonely country place,
with a favorite .sister for a companion.
She had resolved, as all widows who have
loved their hnband do at first, to remain
a widow ! forever. And ..-indeed, though
many, young men would gladlv have
tempted one so young, beautiful and weal
thy, she seemed to care less for auy of
them than for the kitten w hich purred np
on her knee, or the little black and tan
terrier which ran by j her side along the
garden paths. She was nineteen when
her husband was married; at thirty -two she
was still true to his memory.
Is anyone forever utterly true to their
lover's ' memory out of romance w ho
does not die young ? I fear not. - In this,
the lapsing fmimor of the . woman's life,
when she pretends to believe that antrfmn
has actually come, temptation to incon
stancy assailed her. For many years a
lino house upon the neighboring estate
had been empty, but now there came to
take possession of it a gentleman not yet
forty a widower with plenty of money and
no children, and a handsome man, well
built and stalwart, with magnificent black
hair and eyes that were like black dia-rnonds-indeed,
he called himself a Span
iard, and his speech letrayed a foreign ac
cent. v '
.Those , dark eyes and those bin ones
met, a few neighborly words were ex
changed, and then followed a fric-ndlv call.

such an nnjdeasai.it thinj as the wounding

as utterly ut ease wondrouslv happy

He.. had taken off his coat and
lis sleeves. Now he 'left the
conservatory, and coming forward proceed
ed to wash his hands in a basin of water
that had bi-en set ready' A. r him. He was
close to Id i Halifotit. He did uot see her,
but she co ild have readied out her hand
and touched himi Why did she not speak
and call him by name Why did she fall
down upon her knees and clasp her hands
and tremble like an aspen leal ? Alas!
lheAwfnl reason was this: Upon that arm
to tthich she was about to give the right
to clasp her in the tenderest embrace, she
saw a terrible mark a mark she had seen
oncejjefore. She knew its shape and size
and color. Her eyes had been riveted up
on it when the sinewy hand, at the wrist
of which il elided, grasped her dying hus
band's throat. She had learned it all by
heart; she could not be mistaken. Though
years had rolled away, that horrible marked
arm could not; be forgotten or mistaken for
any other.
Suddenly Col. Humphries felt himself
grasped by a hand that, small as it was,
had the fierce clutch of the tiger's claw.
The finger: closed over that red mark a
white face came close to his.
"Yon are my husband's murderer!"
hissed a voice in his ear.
Then the two stood staring at each oth

on one

side they could distinctly hear each other
talk, and held a conversation in a low
tone, although they were 139 feet apart.
The dome has an inner and outer wall,
and between these is the staircase for the
ascent to the lantern. When half way up
there is another door, by which we entered
a small gallery on the" side of the dome.
Looking down to the floor of the Cathe
dral, the height was so immense that the
people walking about below looked like
mete inf infs. After resting here awhile
we exaniiued the mosaics, which looked
from below like tine oil paintings, bnt we
found they w ere very coarse, each stone
being about a. half inch square on the face.
Ai.o lier ascent brought us to the top of
the dome, w here there is an outside balco
ny surioundiug the colonnade lantern
which .surmounts the dome. From this
point a grand view of Koine and all the
surrounding country can be had, extend
ing to the Mediterranean, a distance of
thirty-five miles, over the almost bare
Campagna, betw een Rome and Civita Vec
chia, w hilst on the other side is the Alban
Hills ami the chain of the Appcnine Mountains,-."
After enjoying this view and the
fine, cool breeze, we entered the lantern
and ascended by another spiral staircase
to the top of the lantern, where an upright
iron ladder gave us access to the ball,
which is formed of copper plates eight feet
in diampter mt Ins' lt.1 c!t
though, we rather suppose, not of the size
of the four who -entered it to-day. It is
not often entered by ladies, who usually
give out by the time they reach the bal

of our party made the entire ascent.
A Little Cradle. In the majestic
Cathedral of Westminister, London, famed
a3 the burial place of kings, princes, no
bles, and the great in literature and war,
there is a little cradle, chiseled from mar
ble that has grown gray with time. Peer
around beneath the canopy, and smile
lovingly at the little chubby face, with
cap and frill, that presses the pillow so
quietly in sleep. Why is the babv so
honored as to sleep besides the dust of
greatness! lhe marble bears no name,
bat the record reads: '-princess Sophia,
daughter of James I., died 1600. a"-ed 3
days.'
A golden rule for a young lady is to
converse always with your female friends
as though a gentleman were of the party
and with vonng men as if your fetuah
kfiieuds were present.
The sweetest life is to be ever making
sacrifices for Christ; tho hardest life a
man can lead on earth, the most full of
misery, is; to le alwr.ys doing his own will
and seeking to please himself.
However uncontrollable the circumstan
ces of our life mav be, the qualities of
character wnicu we seek to cultivate in

Oil YouiiSELr a Little. Once upon
a time there lived an old gentleman in a
large house. He had servants and every
thing he wanted, yet he was not happy;
and when things did not go as he wished
he was very cross. At last his servants
left him. Quite out of temper, he went to
a neighlor with the story of his distress.
"It seems to me said the neighbor, sa
gaciously, "'twould be well for you if you
would oil yourself a little."
"To oil myself
"Yes, and'l will
nn.
Some time
ago one of the doors in my house creaked.
one, therefore, liked to go in or out of
it. One day 1 oiled its hinges, and it has
been constantly used by everyliody since."
"Then you think I am like a creakin"
door ?" tried the old gentleman,
do yon want me to oil myself V
"How
"That's an easy matter," said the neigh
bor. "Go homo and engage a servant,
and when he does right, praise him. If.
ou tho contrary, he does something amiss,
do not be cross; oil your voice and your
words with the oil of love."
' The old geccfemau went borne, and no
harsn or nglv j words were ever heard in
the house afterwards. Every family should
have a bottle full of this precious oil, for
every famuv is likely to have a creak in
hinge in the shape of a fretful disposition,
a cross terjiper, a. harsli tone, or a fault
finding spirit.
