She had never been out of theI y efore, eacet during the' ear she had been at boarding -hool at the expense of the eccen. ric old aunt, who had late . biought herself to die, leaving all err property to a sectarian 'Home >r Old Ladies,' and the sublime rests of the everlasting bills were s new as they were delightful to er. Glens, c.scades, wild gorges rid desolate ravines, clothed with ae black-green groWvth of pines ud cedars, succeeded one another i bewildering array-and the Lountain stage was actually at ie door of Mount Sorel before 4sio realized that she was more lan half-way on her journey. It was a fine old mansion, with central tower of gray stone, and No long, low wings, situated up. n a level plateau on the hillside, riLh a wall of almost perpendicu r mountain at the rear, and a iperb view extending to the uth. An old colored servant-man, rith wool as white as snow, and suit of genteel black, came to be door. 'Is Mrs. Sorel at home ?' Miss >ale demanded, with what dignity be might command. 'Yes, miss, do missis she's to ome,' briskly answered the sable rvitor. 'Tell her it is the music teach. r.' said Elsie. And the old man showed her 2to a pretty little apartment, ung with antique chintz al prinkled with trees and-butter ies in colors that would hav( riven a naturalist wild. , A fire of some scented wood lazed on a low marble hearth ,nd was far from disagreeabl( mong these chill mountair eights, August evening' though i as. Presently a stout lady, in blaci ilk and fluttering cap-stringe ame hurrying in. 'Goodness gracious me ' ejacu ated (the stout lady in black there's some mistake.' . Elsie rose up and dropped ai darmed courtesv. 'There is no mistake, ma'am, hink,' said she. 'But you are a child,' said MrE iorel. 'I am eighteen, ma'am,' sai Elsio. 'I wrote for Madam Duchesne.' 'Madam Duchesne could no :ome,' said Elsies, feeling he leart-throbs begin to aceelerate I am her favorite pupil, and sh was convinced that I could repre ent her. Didn't you get her lel 'I have received no letter,' sai< frs. Sorel, still viewing Elsi brough her eyeglasses as if sb ere some sort of an unaccount ble rara avis. Then succeeded another err yarrassing silence, which Elsi D~ale felt must be brokens at a: >azards. 'If you would be so good as t ntroduce me to my pupil,' sai she, 'I think-'. 'Oh, certainly,' said Mrs. Sorel with a little hysterical laugh, will introduce you to your pupil And opening a door which sli gently back under porteres< pink and blue chintz, she lcd tb way into a study lined with book where, by the soft light of a sh led lamp, sat a dignified genti tnan of thirty, busy over a heap< manuscript. 'My son, the rector of~ the p rish,' said she. 'Rudolph, allo mue to introduce you to Miss Dal who has come from New York 1 give you music lessons.' The dignified gentleman rol and bowed. Elsie felt as if she could slid invisible, through a crack in ti floor. 'Rudolph h,as had every music: advantago at Prague and Vienna said M rs. S.,rei ; onu Madam Dcehesne has a reputation f< clssical sacrea nulusic, and m son thought it might be well1 refresh his memory with a cour: of lessons in HUaydn and Moza before commencing to instruct b choir boys himself.' Elsie colored like a rose. 'I-I am. very sorry,' said sh< 'and so will Madame Dachesne t She thought-and I thought, t' ...that the pnnml wa* child. believe I am pretty well-grounded in my musical education. but of course I couldn't undertake to teach a gentleman like Mr. Sorel. Perhaps I had better return to New York by the morning's stage.' Here Elsie, quit3 forgetful of her dignity, burst into tears. 'Stop a minute!' said Mr. Sorel, gently. 'Why should yoa not re main at Mount Sorel and instruct my little choir boys in my stead ? !And while they are still in the rudiments you can be practicing with me.' 'If I could earn my board in that way,' Elsie said, feebly. 'You can do a great deal more than that,' said Mr. Sorel, kindly. 'And now, mother, I am sure our pale little visitor needs a cup of tea.' Hospitable Mrs. Sorel made haste to conduet her to the break fiast-room, where fragrant tea, boiled chicken, and biscuits as light as a puff of' snow, wer spread appetizingly on a little round table, glittering with old silver, and lighted with wax can dies in antique bronze sconces. 'That was an excellent thought about the eboir-boys,' said Mrs Sorel as she poured the thick yellow cream into Elsie's cup 'Now, wasn't it, my dear ?' 'If-if you are quite sure that it wasn't merely to make me feel easy about staying here ?' faltered Elsie. Mrs. Sorel smiled wisely. 'Nothing would have induced him to say what he did not think, I said sho. 'Rudolph is truth it self.' So Elsie stayed at Mount Sorel going down day by day to the little chapel among the wik mountain ledges, with its pictur esque gables and windows o: stained glass, to teach the smal choir-boys the difference betweer sharps and fiats, 'sol fa's 're mi's. And then, when the lesson wai over, she wandered into the ra vines, gathered rare ferns an copied slender-stemmed wild flow ers in water colors, and grew a rosy as a milkmaid. Until September came, with th early frosts that turned the fern to rold, and hung pennons of scar let and russet among the mapi t trees in the glen ; and then, on day, Rudolph Sorel found Mist Dale sitting gravely on the moss Scovered rocks, beside the noun tain spring, with an un wonte< shadow on her face. 'What are you thinking of?' h asked. with a smile. s'I am thinking what I shall d this fall,' said she. 'Whether t advertise in the city papers fo music scholars, or to open a littl day-school in some unpretentiou equarter of the town.' I'Why do you go away frox here at all ?' he asked, gravely. S'Because I have my living t rearn.' 'But wvby can't you earn it here said he. I'Because there is nothingt .od,' she replied. d 'Are you quite certain of that if he asked, gently. 'There is a gres e deal to do, Elsie Dale. I wan , you to stay at Mount Sorel-t - stay for my sake. I want you t - be my wife, Elsie !' f 'Oh,' cried Elsie, clasping h hands, 'if only 1 were s-ortby < - that!' r 'But you are worthy,' lhe sai< , 'Sweetheart my life would be o vain void without you, now that have learned to kbow and lov 3e you.' So when Madame Duchest wrote to Elsie Dale that she ha efound a situation for her, Elsi Dale wrote back to Madame Di chesne that she bad found one f herself; and that it had nothir to do witb wusic lessons either. y Algeria has ariver of ink, form ,o by the union of two branches, o1 ,e coining from a region of ferrugi t ous soil and the other from a pei s swamp.

The diet of the consumptive should be simple and nutritious; very strict rules as to special ar ticles of diet are nucalled for, un less the stomtch should have ex hibited unusual signs of imperfect power. 'Meat should be taken once or twice a day, with a good allowance of fat. Fish is nutri tious, especially oysters. Milk is very nutritious, and two or three pints may be taken in the course of the day. At the Hospital for Consumption at Brompton many pf the patients have a glass of rum and milk the first thing in the morning, before breakfast, to help them to dress, and undoubtedly it often does good. Asses' milk may be taken when ordinary milk dis agreos. Another favorite prescrip. tion is fat bacon for breakfast. Sugar is veiy fattening, and there is no objection to taking it even in considerable quantities. A mod erate allowance of wine or spirits is advisable, but it should be taken with caution when it flushes the face or quickens the pulse. Mod erate and frequent exercise in the open air is essential. We do know that now and again it is very essen tial to "change the air ;" but we consider that to do that with any chance of advantage it is neces sary to go far afield; And we think also that such change of the air is only needful when sickness of' the body has come upon us, or when it threatens to come. When nothing else can be done, sitting out in the open air should always be insisted on-in a garden, on a balcony, or even at an open win dow. Anything is better than remaining shut up in the same room fr(,m morning to night. We heard of a man who, on being told tbat riding was beneficial, hired a horse and galloped about till.he was so exhausted that he did iot recover for a fortnight. Exercise should be carried to a point short of producing fatigue. In ordinary cases of consumption therc is not the slightest occasion for the pa. tient to keep his room, but still it is very important that the sleep ing apartment should be properly ventilated. The great thing is to get as much pure air as possible consistent with warmth and the absence of draughts. Only amod erate temperature should be p)er mitted, so that when in bed the patient does not feel cold. Il. summer, good ventilation should bd secured by letting down the windows for an inch or so at the r top. At the Hospital for Con sumption at Brompton the wards and galleries are kept, winter and summer, at a unirorm tempera ture of a little over 60 deg. The policy of this system is open to question, and, in the opinion of many competent judges, the pa tients would do better if' the tem perature were considerably re 0 duced.-Famnily Physician. CRUsHED.-A dashing young tfellow was very attentive to a Syoung lady who secretly did not fatvor his attentions, and who was blessed with an observing little rbrother of only a few summer's growth. The lady's admirer was visiting her when the little chap broke into their presence, and, a mounting the dashing young man's knee, said : 'Haven't you 'e got a fine room ?' 'Oh, yes,' proudly replied the dashing young e fellow, whose vanity was evident *d .ly touched by the remark. See e ing, as he thought, in the circum. stances an opportunity to make a favorable imipression on the sis ter. he gave his mustache an extra twist and reiterated his reply with emphasis: 'Oh yes, a very fine room.' 'I thought so,' said d,the young hopeful, musingly. e .'But what made you think s';?' said the young lady's admirer, his 4curiosity by this time fully aroused. d 'Because,' was the crushing reply, 0'Sister Mag said your room was better than your company.' if The baseball batsman should w never look a give toss in the mouth - THE Boy WHo WAs LEFT.-At t late hour Friday night the po ice found a boy about ten years ild sittiiiglon the steps of theiity. lall, and wher he had been stir -ed up he exclaimed: 'My name's Johnny Stewart, Lnd I live near Grass Lake.
