Now, this was not by any moans an assertion sui gonoris. In (act, accord ing to his own stntomout, John Smith was "astonished" at his wifo at least ouco a day on tinavcrago. Mrs. Smith was used to it. Sho was a tall, slight woman, scarce ly moro than a child in yoars, with ?bining brown hair, largo" dark eyes, and cheeks that had boen as pink as Boa-sbolls in tho days of ber happy maiden life They wero wliito and wastod now-a circumstance thal might fiurbaps bo oasily accounted for by tho ittlo babe on bor lap and tho 2-year old ol? who was tottering about tho room in aimless pursuit of kittens, sun beams, and ol her baby delights. "Things aro all at?1X09 aud sevens," wout on Mr. Smith, tying his cravat ?boforo tho mirror and viciously twist ling it into a knot. "Coal wasted, but ttor thrown into tho soap-groaso jar, .dish-towols takuu for stove-cloths, and any third-bost pauts sold to a dotti <or in tinwaro for a funnel and two plo plattors! I ne^or board anything so outrageous in my life." "Hut, my doar," meekly intcrposod tho mucb-ondnritig wifo, "wo noodod tho tinware, aud you had not worn tho garments for a yoar. They woro full of moths." "Thero it is again," said Mr. Smith. "Thc moths would Dover bavo got into 'cm if you had takon proper precau tions. 1 not or hoard of a moth in my mother's timo. And now you aro act ually asking permission to visit your brother up ibo Hudson." "1 havo not been away from homo beforo Hinco wo wero married. John," piteously plcadud Mrs. Smith. "I fud almost worn out, and I think tho chango would do mi good." "And what is to become of mo!" (sonorously domando! tho husband. Mrs. John Smith thought of tho day's masonic excursion last week, tho trout-fishing expedition into tho Cats kills a fortnight since, tho races at Joromo Park, and tho drives lo High Bridgo with Parker, Potts, and Prisbco in an opon buroucho, all within tho month. Hut sho said nothing except: "It don't cost much to go, John. And I'll only slay away a week. Do lot mo go! Tho doctor says tho fresh air miglit help baby along with his tooth, and little Johnny is drooping this bot weather." "Well," said Mr. Smith, as ungra ciously ns possible, "1 suppose you'll havo to go. Five dollars at least it .will cost me, and altogether our ox <pouses aro ruiuous ibis your. Seo how .Georgiana Troltor mar.agos for hor .husband. I don't supposo it costs ithoiu half to livo that it docs us. I nuight havo niarriod (Joorgiana Trottor ouco. I almost wish I bad." It was on Mrs. Smith's lips to uttor: "So do I!" lint she lookod at tho llt tlo ehlldron and was silonL "Yes," wont on Mr. Smith; "I sup poso you mun go. Only, for pity s sako, don't get into tho habit of run running all tho limo. I needn't sond up anything from tho bulcbor's, I sup posoP I shall dino down-town, and there'll bo enough loft ou tho cold knuckle of yesterday's hom for you!" Mrs. 8mlth abstained from remind ing hor hoskin.! that ho had himsolf (breakfasted on tho ronmins of tho ham. .She only sighed and was silent. "It's his way," sho thought. "He means well enough. And I suppose all men aro so. Only I wish ho had kissed mo giod-byl" Woman nature all ovorl She could do without her dinner contontod, oat ing a crust ol broad in stead, but her heart yoarnod hungrily for the omitted caross, tho ignored word ot tendernos*. Poor Mrs. John Smith I How the Btrong-mlndod of hor sox would have pltiedand despised her! No light! no Uro! It was droary enough on that chill August ovening, as Mr. Smith scrowod tho night-key Into the latch and groped bis wey in the hall. Ho sat down In tho bay-win dow and stared about tho vacant room. There wa* bl* wifo's work-basket on the table, horlitllorooking-cbMr stand log vacan? bosido lt, while Johnny s forgotten tattle lay on tho floor olese l y"l4*i deuced lonoly," muttered Mr. HBpw with something of a shlvor.

"I supposo they aro at Hil Worry farm by this limo," said ho to himself. "I suppose tho younker? aro in bcd and Jonny is sitting out on thu piazza, list onlnglo tlie whippoorwills. 1'vo almost a mind to go out ibero to-morrow even ing, and tako some pcaehos and ba nanas and things. It w mid bo a pleas ant Bttrprlso for Jonny, and--hello! What's that! A ring at'tlio bellP" Flinging his cigar into tho utiusod grate, John Smith shulllud along to tho door in his slippers. "Oh - a tulogrnm! Now, I wonder who should telegraph to me!" "Well," said tito shivering and rain drenched niossongor, "p'raps you'd butter open it mid soo. Anyway, I'vo no call to hang around hero un lou*.r or!" And oft* ho wont, while Mr. Smith carried his buff onvclopo back Ut tho parlor light and somewhat nervously toro it opon. CowoiucY, Aug. -,-To JOHN SMITH: Railroad accident. Your wife is killed amt your child dangerously hurt. (Jomo liv tue next train. J A?na?.Mia?anrn, .Vf. 1). Again and nguiu Mr. Smith's be wildered eyes roved over (ho contents of this appalling missive before hu could fully comprehend its duadly moaning. "Dead! Killed!" ho muttered to him self. "My Junuy killod by a railroad accident! And then, catching a railway guide from tho book-shelf, hu whirled over its loaves with trembling hand. Tho next train did not leave tho terminus under an hour ami a half! To bim tho time seemed almost, liku eternity. How could ho enduro this awful agony of soul for an hour and n half? "Perhaps they aro incorrect," ho muttered to himself, wiping tho bonds of cold sweat from Ilia brow. "People can't always j ml go exactly in snob a moment of dismay. Perhaps ?ho is only badly hurt, and I can nuns her through it after ail. My Jenny! my loving, patient, swool-oyod wifo!" A strong sob roso up in lits throat as if it would strangle him. "No. no, ?ho is killod!" ho gasped, as his oyo foll once moro on tho tologram. "Head! and 1 nover can speak to her again or toi! her what a cruel-, exacting bruto 1 have boon! (lod knows I didn't moan ii, and now it's too lato lo make any amends. Why didn't tho children gc too? How can I bring thom up with out Jenny?" His head drooped low on his quiver ing hands; a low, spasmodic groar burst from his palo lips. An hom and a half boforn ho eouhl go to Jenny half au hour then, beforo ho conk look upon hor duad faco; for Cowdroj was an Insignificant way station sunn oight or ten milos up tho road. "if I could only live my lifo ovoi again!" ho cried aloud to tho ban walls, while tight in hi? arms ho clasp od Jenny's little work-basket, with it strips of unfinished hemming-all tha wa? luft to him of tho fair, departot Erosoncc. "if I could only spuak t< er just once, and ask hor forgivonos for a thousand things. Rut, no-it I too lato-too late. And-" Ho '.topped abruptly. Tho sound o a hack driving hastily up to tho door tho reiterated jerk of tho bull-wir roused him onco moro into roluctuu action. "John! doar John!'" "Jonny, my wifo!" He stood, palo and stupefied, starin at her as if she wcro actually n ghos returned from tho regions of ?paco an unreality. ..Th ero has boon a terri bio railroa accident!" said Jonny, her voico faltei lug, as sho laid tho baby on a sofa an took l.ttlo Johnny lovingly on hor la -"a few miles beyond Cowdroy. Thrc or four pcoplo wore killod, but, than God, wo . . .?pod unhurt. Of courso, took tho first train back that I could for I know you would hoar of it and h unoasy. Aud only to think, doai there was a poor mother killed, wit hor little babe in hor arm?, and he namo was tho samo as raino-'Mr. John Smith.' " Ho pointod ono trombllng fingor t tho telegram, which lay open ou th table. Mrs. Smith road it with dilato oyes and pale face. "Ohl my lovo, what a fright yo have had! sho exclnimod. "Aud onl to reduct, it might have bouu me!" "Rut it is not. Obi thank heavoi my own darling wifo, it is nott" gas] ed tho husband, holding his rocoverc ti ea on o eloso to hi? heart. "And have yet timo to livo my lifo ov< again!" And from that hour John Smith wt a changed man. To Jenny it senna almost like millennium, but Mrs. Geo giana Trotter turned up hor nose ai auld: "John Smith must bo in his dotng spending ali his limo and money carriegos to tho park, extra holp, ai fino clothes for that pale-faced wifo his.

A CURIOUS OAI.CUL.VTION, Th? Kn?I of thr Wurdi I-.RH rod Out, niul thn Period Pixed nt 1HIM). Tho following singular ami very cu rilla .calculation, by which tho ap proaching end of tho world h deter mined, ba? never beforo Leon m ulo known to tho public, writes a Water loo, Kan., correspondent of tho Lotlis ??Ho Courtcr-Juttrnal, aud may bc of very groat interest to thone wlio have been studying thc propli-ci?., or watching tin? progress of lin ina II events. Bellove tin; results or not. as wo may, nevertheless boro mo tho ligures which any reader can verify for himself. If thoso results aro hore correctly fore told, thou tho startling fact ?tares us in tho face that tho world is within ti ft oe n years of its close. Ill tho fall of 1899 tho linal winding up is to luke placo. Hero aro tho calculations. Lot tho reader carefully examino them: To bogin. Thero aro several impor tant prophetic periods made known in tho scriptures, and various dates, as well as significant numbers, snell as tho groat period of 2,300 years mon t io ii cd by Daniel, tho period of 1/290 ?ears, and .tho period of 1.333 \ cars, tosidos these thero are in tho book of Revelation other periods amt signifi cant numbers, such as the 1.200 years; tho poriod of tho woman's sojourn in tho wildcrnoss, 1,000 years tho period of Satan's boing bound, and 660 tho numbor of boasts. Enoch's age (30? years), who prophesied of tho second advent among tbs antediluvian sinners, is also beyond all question a symbolic number. Perhaps, like tho 3(50 days which complote ono r?volution of tho earth around tho sun, making ono year, so Ins 305 yoars may bo symbolic of tho groat proph?tie periods known as "days, : one grand revolution of which is to c?mplele ono of lime's groat\oars and finish earth's career. ..Seven" is also one of tho significant niliubors of SOripturo, aud a "week of seven," or 7 times 7, still more so. Tho student of scripturo will readily recall fr?quent instances of this slgllllicunt liguro 7, and especially the more important ono of 7 timos 7, or 49- the number of linal completion, tho finishing of all mys teries, the winding up ol earth's allans. Very well. Now, luke these ligures, add them logelhor, and soe what you got: 2.300 years. Dan's great period for the eicHising of tao sanctuary. ' 1.290 years, measuring Ibo continu ance ot tho "abomination of desola tion.' ' 1,335 years, tho period of "blessed ness" to the saints. 1,200 yoars, tho duration of tho wo man's sojourn in tho wilderness. 1,000 years, tho binding of Satan. OOO years, the number of thc "boast" who is to go into perdition. 30? yoars, the symbolic age of Enoch, tho great prophet of tho advent. 49 yoars, tho number of linal comple tion. Total 8.206 years. . Mow reuiombor thal beforo all tho catastrophes denounced on mankind as tho divine judgments against sin thero wore usually periods of "waiting" be fore the jiidgiuonl fell, so us to afford opportunity of repentance and escapo, and these periods multiples of 40, us, for example, beforo tho Hood, 120 years; before tho conquest of Canaan, 40 years; and before Hie full of Nine veh, 40 days, denounced by the pro phot Jonah. Now udd together 120 your? of Noah's warning before tho Hood came, 40 yoars of Israel's warn ing before judgniout fell on tho guilty Canaanites, 3] years that thu witnesses laid unburied preparatory to resurrec tion, and throe years during willoh tho owner of tho vineyard caine seeking fruit und Unding none, at tho expira tion of winch poliod tho tig tree was to bo cut down, amt you have 1GGJ as tho ! sum. Now, to apply t' eso mystic numbers and loarn their (Uilleance, imagino your life divided imo the four periods of childhood, youth, mai.hood, and old ago, so as to gol it in its completeness, 'luke your ago in yours, leaving .oil I months and days, add it to itself tbroo tiraos (ono for ouch of thoso four periods), add to it tho mystic number i 8,265 (tho sum of tho groat prophetic periods) in order to ascertain tho full sum of timo's revolutions, and divide tho amount of four (tho numbor of universality, became thoso calculations apply equally to every human being), subtract from tho quotient tho other mystic numbor 166) (periods of warn ing given to man beforo tho execution of final doom), and from tho remainder deduct tho numbor of yoars you have lived in this sublunary world, and you got tho number 1.899}. Now it matters not what age you take, that of tho little child or the old man, tho result is tho ?niuo, Ibo omin ous 1,899} always romains us tho ono fatal poriod w hen every human lifo is to close. Hut tho ono yoar in which overy human oarcor is to torminato and ovory life closo must bo tho final year, tho winding up, tho conclusion of all sublunary things, tho year of doom. A singular confirmation of this cal culation is to bo found in tho fact that, according to an old Jowiah tradition, the world was created in tho fall of the year, of which tho old feast of trum pets, occurring in October, was sup-1 posed to bo tho memorial. And it would bo natural to supposo that it would be very appropriate for it to oloso Us career on tho completion of ono of its annual revolutions; in otho words, in tho fall of tho yoar. And so this remarkable calculation plainly in dicates. The three-fourths singularly points out that fact. Hence, if thoso conclusions ara not erroneous, wo havo the startling prophecy beforo us thal when earth reaches one of hor great milestones on tho highway of time In Ootober, 1899. a mighty hand will bo laid upon her and she will stop. Let the world look out for 1899. Au ancient burying ground was ro om i y uncurl i.od in Paris while dig ging a ti i nch ni thu Hue Salando.
