She was going back to home and friends, her look seemed to say. (Would not he at least send word to those who loved him of the peril in which he stood? Tho money would be paid at once, Gerald Gildea knew, but then, ho must leave behind the princess, ?he whom her friends call ed the loveliest and her enemies the worst woman in Russ ia.

And make Ivan happy, too, and comfort those two women, Hour or and Alice. And because he stayed for my sake, do thou lay his death at my door. Amen, amen!* Then she opened her eyes and took her fingers from her ears, for, as she said to herself, it did not be come a Karoly to die huddled up like a rabbit in a burrow.

"What is it they say? Whose beauty do they want to spoil? Please God, mine." Then a .wavering footstep came toward her^ and a cold fear suddenly smote tho princess, holding her fast so that she could not speak or. 'shriek, though in some occult way she knew that her companion in danger .was awake. Gildea rose up on his elbow and. waited quietly. In her. corner the princess crouched, listening intently. She could hear steps and whispers, and though not a sound came from Gildea she knew -that they were about their devil's ;Work. There was a dull silence, and then a* very faint moan scarcely more than a sigh, but Princess Ka roly heard it and leaped to her feet, -thrusting her hand into her bosom. ;Bhe went straight to the place where h? lay, gave one steady look into the Blinded eyes, and then, with some thing like a smile on her lipB, drew fiber hand from her bosom and sent a\merciful bullet straight into his ; heart. Then she dropped on -her knees and caught the brown head to her bosom, kissing the marred face with' heartbroken kisses^ and whis pering tender words into the ears that could not hear her--tender words that now her husband hears her murmuring in her sleep o' nights. For, five minutes after her bullet had found its billet in Gerald Gildea's heart, a mule came down the road from Ajaceio, laden with her ransom money. Again fate had been unkind to Princess Karoly.

OLDEST MAP. Pia?'nf the Ancient City of Rome In Fragmente of Marble. There ia preserved ia' Home au in teresting document, which ia tho old est plan of the ancient city oJJ Borne in existence. The Forma TFrbis, ns it is called, was cut upon 140 pieces of mar bk* ol various sizes and covers a superficial pren of 266 square me ters. It was made during thn reign of Septimirs Severus, between 203 and SH A. p., and was attached to a wall, of the Templ?m Sacr?e "Or bis, the present church of SS. Cosmo e Damiano. The most curious fea? turo of this map is that some sec tions or divisions of the city aro rep resented upon a much larger scale than other parts. This ia notably the case respecting the Palatino and Koman Forum. The reason for this distinction antiquarians and ar chaeologists have failed to adduce, and the peculiarity rendered it a dif ficult, matter to piece the fragments of tho map together correctly.. It is also evident that the relic is the' product; of Beveral different hands, since some ..portions oro very skill fully and'diligently prepared, while others are very negligently made. Tho map was also permitted to fall into disrepair and lull* lu pieces in course of time. The.first fragments were found iri 1562 and roughly placed together by. Antonio Cosio, but tho work of building up tho map has been diligently continued ever since, until now 1,049 pieces have been found and joined together. That th?; mao was originally of a tremendous size is testified by the fact that,, according to Professor I>anr;ini, the present portion of the glan is.byt a fifteenth of the whole. This Forma Urbis is of immense value to. archaeologists, since hy its sid several parts of ancient Home hitherto, unknown have been found. ?^Scientific American. , Billy's-Little Talent.

What's the mut ter?" asked the friend1 as the small boy tried to brush past. "I ain't a-going to tell you," he ? announced, ramming his small fists i into his eyes. "Certainly not," acquiesced tho old gentleman cheerfully. ? "Beauti ful morning for a stroll, isn't it?" Jack eyed him obstinately. "I passed your house a little while ago, and it seemed to me that I smelt ginger snaps cooking," observ ed the old man carelessly. "I don't care!" said Jack fiercely. 'Tm running* away." "I don't blame you," said the man cordially. "I wouldn't stay in a house where th ey cooked ginger snaps right under a fellow's nose ei ther." "'Tain't that I" snapped Jack.

The intelligence of animals seems, as a rule, to be underrated rather than overrated. A dog breeder de scribed a wonderful collie that had belonged to Sir John Lubbock. "This dog," he said, "would When, it was hungry lay at its master's feet a card marked 'food.' When it wast thirsty it would fetch a card marked 'drink.' When it wanted, to take a walk it would bring a card marked 'out/ "Sir John Lubbock trained it to do this trick.in less than a month., He put the food card over the dogfs food and made it bring tho card to! him before he would allow it to eat, and in the matter ot drinking and; going out he used a li&e method.!

"I feel as yorong now, at thirty, as I did at eighteen years of age." That is part of the statement of one woman, mother of six children, who found new life by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It is not the or dinary cares of the family, nor the natu* ral obligations of motherhood, which make women prematurely old. But it is thej' womanly diseases, draining away the vitality, and undermining the strength, which take the roundness and supple ness from the form, the bloom from the cheek and the .brightness from the eye. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures those womanly diseases which rob women of youth and beauty. It establishes reg ularity, dries enfeebling drains, heals inflammation and ulceration, ana cures female weakness. It makes weak women strong and sick women well. It brings back to the mother the lightheartedness of her bridal day. This is the testimony of thousands of women who have re newed their youth by the use of n Fa vorite Prescription." ?For four year?
