I BROUGHT IT ABOUT. J[j
Nobody likes long stories. People 171
haven't got the time to read them in
the^e days of "short cuts." Even love
stories have to be trimmed to suit the he
age People may love quicker than they co
used to, and some people say they repent ^
of it quicker than they used to. That is w
the reason so many short cuts have been
invented to untie "whom God hath joined
together." Tiicy don't believe, 1 suppose,
that God has anything to do with it; ^
they don't believe that matches are made
in heaven. Well, to my short storv. lo:
I will never forget my love making. It ev
was not done in a gilded parlor, where my wj
dear girl lived. Her father was 7erv much ca
opposed to his daughter receiving any com- sa
pany. He had a strange suspicion that
they wanted his money?that is, the young ey
men. This is sometimes the case; indeed, pa
this fear has gone into history, and books th
are quite needlessly full of it. I met
Mamie Miller at a friend's house. It was ^
one of the few places she was allowed to vo
visit, and I happened to be there on one of sfc
rhpsp visits. I was sitting m the little ^ul
? 0
parlor, reading, when the door opened and ^
my friend Sarah By ere entered, leading by t0
the hand a beautiful, entrancing creature,
dressed in pure white with a bunch of
fresh ros??, a? white as her own soft white nji
dress, fastened at ber throat. I am entirely
on^inced that the moment my eyes fell ed
upon her I wa? a captive. There never lai
was anything accomplished more quickly tsl
and quietly. I sa'd at once: "Mamie H
Miller, you shall be rav wife." 1 spent an sei
hour?one delicious hour?with her, in sic
that bright little parlor, scented with the pr<
fragrance of the garden which bloomed just
beneath the windows. We talked and st*
laughed in a wild, free mood, and I felt
that I bad known her always, to say the nu
least. She was dark-eyed, dark-haired,
and laughed in little silvery tides, till I sai
felt it running into ray heart like the wine as
of sunshine. Then a rose fell from her tir
bosom, which I picked up and placed in if*
my coat. A little white band was stretched as
pleading after it, but I kept it, and she at
let me keep ir. th:
" May 1 come to see you V I said softly. oc<
as 1 bade her good-bye. pk
She flashed and half shook her head. ab
" I would like to see you, Mr. Brock,
but?you see, my father don't allow me to ha
see young gentlemen." -it
44 And why ?" du
" I don't know," she replied, in such a his
captivating little way that I made up my in)
mind that I would find out the reason. tbi

and said:
" I sometimes walk on Ashmore street,'* he
" When ?" Cc
" In the afternoon.'* ha
What was the harm ? If I could not m<
get in her house, what would be pleasanter on
than a little courting on Ashmore street, oh
A tew davs after that I met Sarah tb
Bvers. sil
" Tom Brock, I know you are in love
with Mamie. Confess it. I saw it. What tb
is more, she is quite in love with you;
says you wear such a pretty little gray de
hat, and have such a handsome face, ms
and tb
" Hold !" Tell me wbat you think of wi
the prospect ?" oft
"It will be absolutely madness to at- pc
tempt the bouse. The old gentleman is tn
quite besides himself about his money. *e<
He thinks every young man who looks at foi
his daughter is after his money. It will I
n t do lor you to meet her on the street, | ne
for that wonld be improper. Sbe can come an
but seldom to our house. I advise you to i
give it up before it goes any further.'' ! *ai
That afternoon 1 sauntered down Ash- cai
more street, and had not walked over three de
squares, before I saw the little beauty
daintily and innocently coming toward me.
We talked of beautiful things for an hour dii
that day, and I left her with an inspiration foi
ot the future. I was practical enough to
comprehend the situation. I was getting ' I
a salary of twelve hundred a year, with su|
limited prospects.
I resolved to inform old Miller of my
intentions, as became an honorable gentle- wl
man. i de
There is nothing like pluck. I thought mi
I had an immense amount of it. It is a mt
good thing to have; so also is brass. to'
Hi was aeenstomed to iro to his ware- i VO
house at a very Leathenish early hour, i
after the mistaken notiou of the last cen H<

convenient distance, and when I knew him his

It was in vain I opened the door of the wa
commercial sanctum and beheld the morn- mi
ing newspaper between me and the win- iiu
dow, with a pair of hands holding it. I! of
advanced a step. The paper still remained : '
undisturbed. i

i
voice. wa
The pa|?er slowly lowered, and the keen 1
black eyes of a little gray-headed man ho
peered at me over the gold rims of a pair am
of spectacles. ? do

"Mr. Miller, I will state my business.

business house, and talk about loving my
daughter! Where did you know my
daughter ?" <*hi

her." " 5

The eld gentleman flung iris paper to
ie side and looked at me with astonishent.
" I mean just what I say, sir. .1. am an
morable gentleman, and take an honorile
method ; will you talk with me ?"
" What are you worth, young man, and
here are you from ?"
I named my lineage and status.
" No man marries my daughter, sir."
I bowed and left the room.
That afternoon I met Mamie, and told
r that I loved her, and leceived one of
ie sweetest smiles that a fair girl ever
ailed upon man.
I told her of my interview.
" Let me manage that," said she. " 1
tve a way ; let me trv mine, or we will
>th try."
I formed a resolution to go every morne
to the old gentleman's office. I per isntly
followed it up. Sometimes I woud
and fifteen minutes without a response,
vcral time* 1 was ordered out of the
Bee. I kept my ground aDd looked hira
uare in the face, with my plea upon my
?s and in my eyes. This went on for
ontbs. The afternoon meetine also went
i, with an occasioned meeting at Sarah
yers', who sedulously favored our love.
One evening I went boldly up to Miller's
>use and rang the bell. Who should
me but Mr. Miller himself.
"Young man, you must be insane; you
ive pestered my life. What do you
ant ?"
" To marry your daughter."
" But I bare told you "
" T know vou have, but vou have never
ven a good reason, and I must marry
tr."
' I will not be bothered in this way any
Dger. I will talk with you to-morrow
ening. I will invite vou to take tea
itk me. You are the first young fellow
bo has ever been in the house. You
nnot see my daughter, however. You
id you wanted to sec me."
' I do, most emphatically."
I was on har.d at seven o'clock the next
ening. As I passed from the hall to the
rlor, I heard the rustle of a dress, and
e quick patter of little feet in the hall
ove, and a wee little fairy laugh over
e bannisters.
" Courage !" whispered a well-known
ice from the invisible height. It was a
itelv old pat lor, but the most mcagerly
rnished room 1 ever beheld. I had picred
my darling in a gilded cage ! One
irnor in the chandelier was lit and turned
its lowest ebb.
The old gentleman met me.
' We will not talk till after tea. You
List eat som*.thing."
Pre.-entlv the bell rang and we iescendto
the basement. The dining room was
ge and sparsely furnished. A very large
ble stood in the centre of the room.
dod entering 1 beheld *an elderly lady
ited at the end of the table, and on one
le m.y beloved, looking very demure and
etty.
' Mamie, did I not tell you to stay up
lirs ?" said her lather.
" es, papa, but I didn't believe you
?mt it."
" Let her stay now, that she is here,"
d the elderly lady, who was introduced
her mother. The table was almost enely
bare?a perfect Sahara. A small I
ipot before Mrs. Miller contained about
much tea as I ordinarily drank myself
home. Two Dlates of bread, cut so thin
? g ,
at you c >uld read tine priDt through it,
cunied c'ther end of the table. A small
ite of butter in the centre contained
out one liberal heap.
After we had all seated ourselves, and I
d cast a lavishing look at the girl oppoe
me, a dead silence brooded down,
ring which the old gentleman bowed
5 head into his plate, and asked a blessi
upon " the bountiful repast spread for
e use of our bodies, and that we may be
mperate in the use of it."
Upon the elevation of the venerable
ad, Mrs. Miller poured out a libation to
mfucius in a thimblebleful of tea, and
nded it to me. Mamie administered to
? a slice of the attenuated bread, and put
e between her own pearly teeth. The
I gentleman nibbled at his share, and
e starvation meal concluded in deathly
enee.
The ladies withdrew, and, clearing his
roat, Mr. Miller remarked:
" My daugbhr has been luxuriously and
licately raised, young man. 1 have
ide inquiries concerning you, and find
at you are apt in business matters, and
II in time, make a business man. I
er you a situation in my store at $600
r annum. If you prove worthy of the
jst I will increase the amount $200 the
;ond year, and so on in proportion for
ir years. At the expiration of that time
will decide. I ha\e a parent's tenderss
for my daughter, sir. You are young
d arduous, and you have much to learn."
" I can do better than that, Mr. Miller,"
d I. " If your daughter loves me, 1
a provide for her; what is the use of
ferring our marriage."
" I will it," said the solemn old Shy lock.
1 arose from the table, and, quietly bidig
tiro good night, went up stairs and
rnd Mamie loitering in the hall.
u Can't do anything with him, darling,"
said. " il i can get money enougn to
pport you, will you marry me?"
" Of course 1 will."

f y isits to the old gentleman's office. I
him at his door and walked down
ivn with him. conversing affably and
lublv, constantly edging in my claim,
stuck to him like a haunting shadow.

n. He c >ased going t:? his office in the |
iming. I went to his house, and, walk:
past the servant, proceeded to the
rlor, and waited till 1 heard his step in
8 hall.
It was an awful strain on my system,
t I persevered. The old gentleman
ally did not go to his business at all. I
lited upon him at home. He regarded
? with a sickly smile ; he lifted his hands I
ploringlv. Mamie even put in a word
caution.
"Father is not well?what had we bet
do ? Sup|H)sp we stop awhile."
I knew him too well. My only chance
s to follow out my plau and sicken him. j
One day the doctor was called to the
use. I saw liirn enter. I followed hiiu

Heartburn.?Why the sensation occa
sioncd by the presence of an acrid acid ii
the stomach should be called heartburn 1
is difficult to say, as the distress is no
even in the immediate vicinity of th
heart. Common parlance, however, ha
sanctioned the misnomer, and, like man1
other erroneous teims in common use, i
is a fixture in our language. Bi-carbonat
of t;oda is usually giviyi for heartburn, bu
it merely neutralizes the acidity for th
time being, and does not prevent a speed;
return of the complaint. In fact, all tL<
alkaline solutions given to relieve th<
burning serve to weaken the stomach, am
thereby aggravate the cause ot the ailment
viz., indigestion. What is needed in sucl
cases is something which, by toning an<
invigorating the gastric membrane, an<
thus promoting a Tree How of the secftioi
which dissolves the food, accelerates th<
work of digestion and assimilation. Av(oi<

Stanley has reached Ujiji, where he ha
met my father, who has received the sup
plies sent up to him. There are no let
ters from them at this moment. I am in
clined to think that some supplies havi
reached Ujiji, and there is little doubt tha
Stanley has left Unyamwezi. All report
speak of my father being wounded by i
buffalo, which makes him limp badly.'"
Cakat.?The word carat, used to ex
i* e* 11 ll.j i
press me nneness 01 goiu, is so caiieu iron
an Abyssinian bean, which, from the tiim
of its gathering, varies very little in it
weight, and for this reason is used ii
Africa as a weight for gold, as it is it
India for gems and pearls. It is, with us
an imaginary weight, U9ed to express thi
proportion of gold in a given mass o
metal. Thus, if an ounce of gold is divid
ed into 24 parts or carats, then gold 2(
carats fine is that in which 20 parts an
pure metal, and 4 parte silver, copper, oi
some other alloy.'

i Hanging a Man Twice.,
3 A letter from McKmney, Texas, de- 11
scribes the horrible execution there of ^
Stephen Ballew, a notorious ruffian, who [a
had murdered a youth named James Gol- w
den lor money, and afterward married the
victim's sister. The prisoner was taken
S from the wagon by the Sheritf and led up 1?
to the gallows. His face wore a sullen and 11
cold-blooded look as he sat there, calmly b
e smoking a cigar, while the clergymen were
performing the sr~"ice, showing most
- dogged indifference.
8 After a few short prayers, of which the
prisoner took no notice, the Sheriff adj
vanced and announced that the prisoner
had nothing to say ; having positively de- ^
e clined to utter a single word. Ballew was
o then informed that his time had come, ai
1 <h
when he got down from the railing upon _
i- which he had been perched, advanced toa
fc
ward the Sheriff with a sneer, and with a &
devil-may-care indifference lowered his *1
^ head in order to allow the Sheriff to pro- ia
perly adjust the rope.
;t After the black cap had been drawn the
e Sheriff knocked the dtod from under the t(
trap, and Ballew was swinging in mid air ?
J The fall failed to break his neck, as was tl
0 seen by his convulsive struggles. After
j swinging fifteen minutes, during which
time the prisoner made desperate efforts w
to free himself, it was ascertained that the
p rl
o noose was so loose as to admit air into his ai
e lungs. The assembled crowd were unani- J?
mously in favor of a second hanging, and were
not slow in demanding it. The voice
of the cattle drovers and backwoodsmen cl
3 could be heard above the confusion, shout- ,r
g ing, ''Give th? villain another dose;" C1
"Shoot him;" ''Cut his throat;" and ^
* numerous other ejaculations or similar
^ tenor.
e . u
Women fainted, and a scene of the wild tl
e est excitement ensued. The Sheriff re- P
e gained the platform, and by a determined b
t effort of his assistants, the half-hung man
^ was raised, the noose tightened, and amid sl
u shouts Ballew was 8 wung off a second time, *
and in thirty minutes was pronounced b(
dead. Ballew was one of the most notov
rioos desperadoes in the State, and is known t]
e to have murdered a number of men. K

A Model Policeman.
They have some model policemen in ?H\
e New York. Take the following as an 51- ?
' lustration. A policeman went into a ti
saloon seized hold of a man who was U:
.. ) standing near the counter, and without ^
1' any word of explanation, began beating
a him over the head and face with his heavy ei
: night-service club. In a few seconds the tr
v man's features were beyond recognition ~

J raw flesh. The man who was thus assault- ^
i' ed was John B. Christie known as "Bour? ?'
bon Johnny," a Broadway gambler and ~
| 41 sport." He did not offer any resistance,
e but merely said 44 for God's sake, stop, w,
0 don't kill me." When partrolman No. H
- 795 had growing tired of beating Christie
he flung l.im out on the sidewalk. A citi- b
zen who had witnessed this action of the
g
officer entered the saloon and asked the =
proprietor what was the reason of the
R man being so terribly clubbed. "Oh,"
j said the proprietor, "he came in here and
ran up a bill of 31.70, and had no money fe
;1 to pay. I sent out for the officer to make pi
e him." 44 But why wasn't he arrested?" a'
J said the citizen; 44 if he was liable to be
1 st
clubbed, surely he ought to have been ar- jB
rested." 44 Well," replied the saloond
keeper, with a dry smile* on his face,
f 44 there was an old grudge between the tl
two, and I rather think the 4cop' took it e'
out of Johnny." This ingenuous declara h'
n tioti on the part of the saloon-keeper, was
n all the expanation that could be gained eI
R By that time Christie had so far recovered ie

as to be able to get up from the sidewalk, w

The Diamond Drill.?The value of cl
the diamond drill and diamond saw can
11 best be estimated from the followingstateimentof
the Bosion Herald. Speaking ol r
* ' the diamond saw the Herald savs: An ex- ?\
t i
ample of its power of savin? labor is shown h
in the fact, that it will cut and dress, in
v ^
the quarry, some twenty square feet of
ordinary stone in an hour; while the most tl
that can be cut by hand in a marble-quarry
is one and a half square feet per day, at a
1 cost of $1.50 for the labor by the latter 3l
^ method. A specimen of Quincy granite
was shown, with a perfectly finished face, p1
0 . fo
j which was cut by the machine at a cost of si
less than 25 cents per square foot; and
1 , quairymen estimate that the same work
j done by hand would cost $5 a foot. On
j 1 this basis, it does the work of fifty men at
^ a trifling cost. B

* Extraordinary Cures.?We have read ^
- many accounts of the extraordinary cures p,
_ by I)r. Walker's California Vinegar l
Hitters, which have seemed incredible. B
We are inclined to believe them, as many
e ; of those who vouch for them are persons
t whose veracity we can guarrantee. The
s newspapers teem with testimonials of this o
character, and there is an air of particularity
and truth about them which canoto e
be resisted. One manifest superiority the
Vinegar Bittf.rs possesses over other Al- 3
" terative and Tonic preparations: it con- H
1 tains none of the burning fluids with which ^
s most advertised Hitters are impregnated, c
8 It cannot create Fever. Instead of clouding ^
? the brain, it clears it if clouded. It is well p
1 known that Alcohol, even of the purest l
i description, weakens and nntones the w
stomach instead of bracing it, and is. there- r
a fore,poison in cases of Indigestion. Fancy, ?
then, what must be the effect of the cheap 0
r fre-rcater, employed in making ordinary
- Bitters and Tinctures, on the weakened ^
) and inflamed digestive organs. Vinkoar
? Bjttkrs, on the other hand, soothes the c<
stomach, while it increases the appetite p
r and relaxes the bowels. Dr. Walker is a c
regular physician, and his remedies have^
just as much authority as any standard" 0
i remedies of the faculty. We believe they F
are destined to beoome a household medi- *
oine.? Chm. a

Quinine in Typhoid Fever.?An in- I
resting ca?e from the records of the 1
amerton Fever Hospital, illustrating the
wer of quinine to control the temperature
the body in patients sick with typhoid
rer, is given in a late number of the
iiicet. The patient was a little girl seven
are'old, who came into the hospital on
e ninth day of her illness, with a temrature
of body of 105 deg. Falir. She at
ce commenced taking quinine in tbreeain
doses every four hours; and the ^
mperature immediately began to fall, 01
ntinuing to do so until the morning of
e eleventh day, when it had reached 97
g. Fahr., a fall of eight degrees. The i
ministration of quinine was then stopped, *
ion the temperature at once began to thj
c, and by the evening of the twelfth day po
d reached its old point, 105 deg. Fahr. |n]
ider the influence of quinine it again ^
:nt down; rising as before when the quiae
was a second time suspended. A syi
ird and a fourth time the temperature tll,
is brought down in a similar way, relining
normal after the permanent dis- tto
ntinuance of the quinine on the twenty- pe
:ond day. Another case, also that of a ni]
tie girl, was marked by a similar fall
d rise of temperature under similar s"
5atment. Profuse sweating in both a
'es generally followed the administra n
of the quinine. ' B1j
