A great lake, one of the chain ol
inland seas which part of oar country
from the Cftnfccffaii Dominion,
lay shining under the rays of the
descending sum iAi little- Tillage
nestled on the western shore of an
ample bay 8tadden;^jth green .}&
innrifl and on the noint at the /en
trance to the bay, ih tile shade'bf
&e strange old-fashioned lighthouse,
a woman stood looking
Jrearnily oot to aea, .with . that f$*away,
preoccupied expression which
ive see in those.whose tljopghtaare
not upon the scene before them*.
' A beautiful gifi! TSTot' tTSe beauty
of perfect regularity of feafure,

A quick sfcep stirred the gj&Ss
behind her, and another woraian
same out;of the lighthouse and
stood beside her A ,dark, gypsv>

not have looted so much out ot
plaee in the front of some great
battle. A great soul, warped by
passjou aud marred by pride.:

.,"There ah? comes," cried Nellie,
takiug out her handkerchief.
"There is Archie on the lee rail."
There came.a rushing sound as
of the wings of a great .bird, and a
swift 6choo'ner dashing the water
from her sharp prow, came down
the bay, heading out into "the lake.
On the rail, holding by the fourmttlins,
was a handsome young
follow with curling-, broivn hair*
bud deep-blue eyes^.who waved his
hat and shouted a gopd-byeto Nellie,
as the sc^opn^p passed; and
the look of love in his face was reflanfo^
ifi tli-if nf hia wife. And
Sarah Belton set;her teeth together
with a clinking sound, while her
hands opened and closed convulsively..
.'.Neither spoke for some
moments, until the schooner was
so far away that.they-could' no lonfer
see the ,?gtjre of Walter Var.en.
. . ,. UH ......
"Ah, cry away, you silly fool/'
hissed Sarah. "YOU will never see
him again, until they carry his
body up the beach "to a grave on
the hill yonder.'' 1 r
"Sarah!"
'*Bah : whv do von take the in
jured tone with me, when you knew
well that you robbed;me of the
love of Walter Varden? I have
never forgotten, and I shall never
forgive, uutil I see him dead and
cola on the sandy shore.
"I nevfcr lenew that yon cared for
him, 8arah,'? sobbed Nellie.
"False! You knew it?no one
so well as you?that I worshipped
the earth he trod, for hie sake. But
you came with O'Our. simperine
doll's face and baby ways, and 1
was forgotten. ,He loved me wel]
enough before. There; I have
said ray say, and shall speak nc
more?except this : I have had ?
vision of the coming time, anc
Walter Varden is to die before f

She turned and darted into th<
lighthouse unheeding the plaintiv(
call of Nellie, and.tjje young wife
turned away with a deadly eickneai

for the coming of the Floating

Nelly stood upon the beach and
.looked out upon the broad expanse
of water for the _coming. of her
husband ;'and Sarah Belton, up in
the light house tower, looked down
upon her and delighted in her
grief. :

Fattening Cattle.
??
One would hardly suppose it necessary
to sajy that in fattening stock ^
warmth, is of great importance; t
yet, particularly in fattening hogs, i
we see this principle continually a
neglected. Styes, pens, and stables J
are built often in cola, exposed r
places; and, though the locatiou 1
may sometimes be good enough, t
the buildings are so roughly put c
together that the cold winds whistle c
through in every direction. The t
food which cattle, eat a great s
measure goes to supply'waste neat i
The internal af-rangeroerits'of an t
animal afe much the same as the a
heating arrangements of a building, i
and the foocl is so, much fuel that is a
being consumed in this internal t
stove. To havea'cold, open place \
for cattle, though they be well fed, e
is much the same as to have a large i
fire in one's t office of. a qold.day, 2
and then leave all the dpors and 'k
windows open for the heat to es- c
cape.4 "Warmth, howevfer, is not c
the only,thing needful to 'make cat- (
tie fatten well. - Good health is an t
essential eleme^^, No matter how 1

looks back on the pleasures he
leaves behind, and forgetful of pres,
