Having early acquired the faculty of closing Iiis ayes to painful sights, he rnrPlv looked upon his past, lt was now and then brought to h's rotnombraneo In ehnreh. when, his Impressionable senses being stirred to their depths by solemn music, somo allusion in the service tsi tho groat deliverances wrought by Jehovah for His peoplo, betrayed flavin Into momentary introspection. At such times ho found himself thanking Hod very fervently for hav'ng raised him up out of deep waters, llo invariably distillled his contribution to iho si'eissry on these occasions. There won- ulso times — tho faintest ri* ollstl ion of which made him shuil- dPr — when he found himself Obliged to give utterance to words which all the cns'iirtry he had at his command could n I prevent him from knowing to he untrue: these, happily for his peare of mind, were Infrequent. of Inte a new Influence had stolen into his lie, diminishing his pleasure In finely flavored cigars, distrait ng his thoughts when he was bent on en- jov in'-; a sonata of Mozart's, or Iliun- erton's "Intellectual Life."

The foreman seemed quite unable to control tho mill hands, who rushed hither and thither frantic with terror, blocking lhe passages, crowding ut the doors and windows, crushing against each other, praying, shrieking, cursing. Outside aiil was lung in coining and Inefficient when It came: there was little left to save when the fire was at last subdued, ami meantime such scenes of horror had been witnessed that the newspaper readers shutldcr- ed over their comfortable breakfasts next morning. They censured the mill owners (who were absent at ihe lime) for not leaving more coin- 1 eti-nt men in charge; for not pro- \ Idlng more numerous exits to a building where so many people were employed; for having allowed the fire extinguishing appliances that were on thc premises to fall into such disrepair us lo be almost useless; they began lo censure Ihe foremen for not keeping lietter order niiinng the panic stricken workers— but the foremen's names were in thc list of the dead, and censured ceased. Every one agreed that something must be dono at onco to aid the survivors. The question was, who would take the matter in hand? The Provosl wus out of lovvn, most of the inllucntial people had gone to their country houses— thc fire coulsl not have occurred at a more unfortunate timo-of year. "Every one's business" would have been ls'ft to lhe proverbial No- one, had not the Itev. ltr. Forbes of St. Martin's, wiih Mr. Claverton, Mr. Twiss, and other representative men, met in consultation, and decided lo enlist tho sympathy of Ga- vin Wishart. "If he has inherited anything of my old friend's benevolent spirit, along with his name und his money, he will be eager to 6Cizu this opportunity to help the needy," remarked Dr. Forbes hopefully. •'It certainly is an excellent chance for him to take that leading place in the ranks of philanthropists which I um persuatlesl he intends to occupy. If the Provost had oeen In town we must have applied to hlmi I look upon lt as quite providential that he is absent," said Klcnard Twiss. "Very providential—when you compare the Provost's Income with Mr. Wishart's," added William Clav- crton. Mr. Twiss with his usual practical forethought, suggested that he should go at onco to tho scene of the f.re, and bring back word of the extent to which help would be needed: the reinainsler of the deputation, afler some delay, retirs*U to Uuvin Wish- art'B house. They were ushered into a room, where, for many years, |ietltioners of all kinds had hivn welcomed by the remarkably benevolent old man whose death hud thrown such gloom over the whole of the churitablc worlsl. That section of the charitable world, which maintains itself by extracting money from A and handing part of il over to B, hud ne;n bitterly grieved to learn thai beyond bequeathing considerable sums to be administered in trust for two special bobbin of his—tho Aid of Discharged Prisoners, and the Ke- lief of Indies in Distressed Circumstances—olsl Gavin Wishart had done nothing for the numerous other schemes he had starled and assisted, but had left the bulk of his property to a very distant relative, a young man not yet thirty, hitherto a clerk In a lawyer's office. There was just u chance that the heir might prove to le lavishly generous: it was considered ominous, however, that he lost no time In transferring to the hands of Messrs. Claverton nnd Anderson, his lato employers, the fortune that Hiihiird Twiss had hnd the management of for years—Rich- ard Twiss having come to be Identified In tho public mind with his client's benefaction's, since he was the channel through which the olsl man chose latterly to be approached. "Wo always looked to your relative for help in such distressing cases as this." said Dr. Forbes, when Gavin had greeted his visitors. "Old folks nre slow to learn new wnvs; that, must be our apology for finding our way here, as usual, now that we are In want." Gavin assured him, gracefully en muli. that there was no need to apologise. "How can T help?" he asked. "You must have money, of course; Is there anything else I can give?" They rs'-ed leave fo send out their appeal for aid in his name. "Does that mean that you wish mc to act as seretiry, Dr. Forbes?" "Not at all, not at all: we could never dream of making such a de m nd on your time! Our good friend liich >r I Twiss. who is always ready to indertnle the drudgery of Ihs kind of th'n-r, authorized me to ofo" Ivs services as secretary anil treasurer, if he were not hire in time to offer them hin self." Mr. Claverton was tinders'ood to remnrk that as .Mr. Twiss had a goo I deal of such work on his hands already, it was scarcely fair to allow him lo burden himself with more; nnd Dr. Forbes, who was a little c'ssat, responded warmly, "Quite true, Sir! a must experienced man. as ,vou say. We are all agree 1 think that no ono could be better lltted for the task?" 'Iho majority assented. So far, they had been staniling; but now at Gavin's requsst ihey seated themselves around tho table, uud prococdrd to arrange the details of the r ssheine. Most of them being business men to whom time was valuable, they discussed point after point with great rapidity, delayed occasionally by having to explain some matter at length to Ur. Forbes, who wus more benevolent than practical, Their work was almost complete whin Hichard Twiss arrived, und ilie information he brought proved the necessity for immediate action. Some of those present left at once to relieve the more urgent cass'S. others went to canvass for further aiil—the meeting wus at un end. "1 fear you have seen some slis- tressing sights, my dear sir." said Dr. Forbes laying a sympathetic hand on Twiss' unn. There was some cause for his remark; Richard's face was as white as the papers he held, and his eyes vvoro still that look of extreme terror that tells of clos* acquaintance with what is horrible. He had riss>n to leave — he. Dr. Forbes, and Mr. Claverton, alone remained with Gavin — but he now drop|>ed back into his chair as though his limbs had suddenly lost their strength. "It was sickening." he said, with a shudder, "absolutely sickening: I hope to God, I mav never see anything so awful again! I thought ijie notvepa] er accounts were exaggs-rat- ed, but tliey give a very faint h'ctx of the reality. I can't get the sight out of my mind. And I have had bud news since I left the mill. I found a note ut my oirce telling tne of my brotltr Alan's death." "Dear, dear, dear!" euculu'ted Dr. Forl.cs. "Wus he at the Cape'.'" "No, ho sooms to have been on his way home: h ■ vent ashore at Tenerife, and died thsre." "Can ho have gone to Tens-rife in tho hope of meeting John Corbett. I wonder? they were such friends, those two. Hut he must have heard of Corbett's death. Dear, dear, dear' Well, Mr. Wishart, we will not trcspar-s furthi'r on your time." Gavin went with them to the hall. Mr. Claverton was tho last to leave. Vtunsling on the doorstep while he fastened his coat, he said, "Dr. Forbes misunilerstood my remark a' out Hichard Twiss and the tre.t.ii.rcrshlp." "Very evidently," laughed Gavin 'And I hoard you dissent from his opinion; why did you do that?" "I'e-auso I thought you knew much moro about the matter than he did. lie looks 111, Richard Twiss, I nii-an." "Yes, ha does. They ure not a strong family. Andrew Twiss. the father, had heart complaint. I sup- I ose consumption killed Alan, poor lellovv; it astonished me to hear of his death to-da.v, because Mr. Anilcr- son believed him to be dead some months ago. Vou remember him, of couis i?" "Perfectly. I too heard a rumor of his death, it nn.st have been unfounded." "A sad career, his, ertun, "It is a did not transmit mural spiulitiis lo " said Mr. t.'lav- pit.v the father some of h s his sons, An drew Twiss had an extraordinary reputation for Integrity: you are too young to remember It, but 1 never knew another man as universally esteemed. 1 should ihink that in four-fifths ' of the rases that have come to my knowledge Of private disagreements settled by arbitration, he was the arbitrator. I don't know that Hichard has altogether sustained his father's reputation, although your lato relative had such implicit confidence In him: and as lo Alan—we know what he wns, eh?" "Yes," answered Gavin thus appealed to, "we know what he was." When Mr. Claverton had gone, Gavin returned to the room he hud left. lie stood for some minutes staring into vacancy, with eyes that looked as those of Hichard Twiss hud loo'.ed, dreadfully afraid. He felt, shaken. unnerved; his hands, even, were noticeably uiistiudy. " 'Deter began lo curse and lo swear,' " he rs*poa.tod to himself In u Whilpor, "1 feel like cursing and ■wearing. How many more times shull 1 havo to acquiesce in thai lie? Bach time is to be lhe last, and yet I do ii again. Whut was it they sail'? He went ashore at Tenerife in the hope of meeting Corbett. He did, I know he dtd! Merciful God! ho is dead, nnd the other is deud, and at lust 1 um safe! Dut the Insane folly of it nil! 'For ii.-iO!

And I can't wipe it outl I have given the money hundred! of times over—I have hunted other debt driven wretches and helped them—1 have dono every single thing 1 can think of-and jniter all, someone brings tho whole thing back upon me, and I havo to Uo over again, anil curse myself, curse myself, curse myself!" His breath came in quick short gasps like sobs. •Cud! it's not a fair thing tluit I slmuld be tormented so! My life is clean enough every other way: no ono can point a linger at me. I was oaroless and evtravaqant, nothing more. And to be haunted like this! to be di'ven to lie like this! it's not fair, it's cruel, God of love!" His voive broke suddenly into a low wail. "Mary, 1 can't come to you and snv thero is nothing in my life I urn ashamed of. I shall always have to think What if you know! I seem nearly perfect to you, and I daren't let you si*e." He was s!li*nt for a time; gradually he breathed more evenly, he grow calmer. He sat down, feeling rather ashamed of his hysterical outburst.. nnd a good deal fatigued, lie leaned his head back, and rested with closes! eyes for some minutes, his lips moving, ns he silently repeated over and over again words that seemesl to act like n .iuirm uuon him. Ile did not suy them Irreverently or thoughtlessly, lie really meant them. Turn tlee unto ine. nnd have mercj upon me, for I am afflicted. Forsake me not. I) Lord. I) Lord make baste to help mo.

CHAPTER II. .lohn Cayford lingered in the stern of the "Curlew" until Tenerife had disapearesl from view. As he watch- eel the island, it teemed to lower itself gently into the si'a until it was but a dull blue line on the horizon, then it vuuiohed. As gradually and almost as completely, the Bad ov- periencea at Hanta Cruz vanish.*! from his mental vision.

The more he thought of them, the more impatient ho grew of the hinslrance to their accomplishment which the settlement of Alan's affairs might involve. It was a relief to him on inquiry that Mr. Anslerson, to whom Alan's papers were to lie shewn, was travelling on the Continent nnd likely to be absent for several days. T9m- luy was thus forced upon him. At ■nrs8c*iit he could do no mope than acquaint Hichard TwisSs with his brother's death; having done this, he dismissed the matter from his mind. lt was on the day following the disastrous tire at Cooper's Mill, that .lohn Cayford found himself at liberty to carry out his own projects; and us ho niovesl away from Mr. Antler- son's oil co, revolving plans for the (ilment of his wishes, he was seen and recognized by a young lady who came from thc very spot round which his hope; centrsd — Miss Kate Ferris, niece of the Fstubliahod Church clergyman at Feldrossan.

THE ANIMALS ARE EASILY TAUGHT AND QUICK TO LEARN. Tliey Can, Without Much Tronltle, Do Made to Blarnal "Yes" anil "Ne," to Shake Hands and Iv Me Down nl the Word of Command. There nre so many things that a horse can be taught to do, snys Success, that it Is hard to tell which to seleet as best illustrating the methods by which we tench them. The following, however, will furnish tbe key: Take n pin In your hand, nnd, standing abreast of a horse's near shoulder, prick him lightly on tbe breast. This resembles the bite of a fly. und to drive off the nuisance be will bring down his nose to his breast. Tbls you accept us "Yes" and Immediately reward blm by feeding hlin u lump of sugar or some otber trifle that be likes. Repent the operation till he brings down bis head at tbe slightest movement of your hand toward his breast. By degrees you can substitute a simple downward movement of the hand, which Is less noticeable to an onlooker, but equally effective. Standing In the same position, priek him lightly with u pin on the top of his neck. He will nt once shake his bead, which Is accepted as "No;" then re- wurd him as before. Repeat tbls until be shakes his head nt the least upward movement of the band. This signal. as he learns his lesson more perfectly, can be gradually lessened until It Is very slight indeed. To say "Yes" or "No" Is n very simple trick, uud yet there is none thnt shows to better advantage. Of course when a horse litis thoroughly learned to obey the Signals yon ean usk him some questions and then, by the motlou of your band, make him say "Yes" or "No" its you please. To teaeh a horse to shake bunds, fas ten fl short strap to one fore foot below the fetlock. Then, standing lu front of the horse und having the strap In your hand, say, "Shake hands." nnd Imine dlntely pull up his foot and lake it lu your hand. Then, still holding the root, reward nnd caress blm exactly as you would If he had given It to yrfn of his own accord. Keep repeating the operation, being careful to reward him only while his foot is in your baud. He will very booh learn to give you bis foot the moment you reach your hand toward It. To teach a horse to lie down at a word of command first select n good, smooth piece of greensward, where he will uot hurt himself. Harness him wltb a surcingle and bridle and strap up his off fore foot. A common breeching strap Is best for this, the short loop iiround his foot between the fetlock and the hoof ami the long oue around his forearm, l-'ntiten one end of a strap to the near fore foot below the fetlock, pass the other end up through the surcingle and take It In your right hand and the bridle rein In your left hand. Push him slightly, and the moment he steps pull sharply on the strap. This of course will bring him to his knees. If he Is a horse of any spirit, he will generally fight very pertlnn eiously before he goes down: but. Iinv Ing the use of only his two hind legs, he Boon becomes wearied and rests with his knees on the ground. Now pull his head toward you. aud be will full over the otber way. Hold him down for some minutes, menu while speaking to him very soothingly. Feed him lumps of sugar; In fact, make as much as possible of him while In this position. Then release him and repeat tbe lesson. He soon learns to lie down very readily, nnd then you can omit strapping his off fore foot Later you con also abandon the use of the strap and surcingle by taking his near foot ln your hand. Then you can accomplish the pui'imse by simply touching the near fore leg witb your bund and tlnalty by a motion of your bnnd toward his leg. You should always accompany the signal by the command. "Lie down!" Ily degrees he learns Its meaning, und the signal can be dispensed with. If a horse is large and strong, the trainer must be cool, wide awake and alert; otherwise be may make a botch of lt nud injure the horse or himself or both. Flral Ksill SrsnK.

" After mentioning how strong alkali tuch as potash and soda, disastrously affect cotton, linen, and wool, hu aays: "On one occasion I employed this property of soda ln a useful way. There wss a large quantity of new blankets sent to one of our hospitals, Which, when given out. were said by •he patients to be not so warm as tne old blankets were, and that led to an ■s-'eitlgatlon as to whether tne biauketa were genuine or not They tooket well, and weighed properly thoroughly woven throughout, and It was only by detaching the fine fibres from each other that you Identified the cotton fibre. I fell on the device of using soda. I took a bit ot blanket and put lt In a vessel wltb soda, and boiled It thcro, and very quickly the wool got eaten away by the soda, and thcro was left behind the cotton as a kind of skeleton—a sort of ghost—of tho original blanket out of which lt was taken. 1 invntlon this merely to Indicate to you tho pernicious effects of using caustic roaterlaU, which, ..lien employed strong by themselves, affect woollen articles In this way, and which, even whon not very ttrong, will more slowly, but with et*.nal certainty, tend to ili'Htroy the woollen fibre." Now, 1 want to tell you that we neighbors have had a talk over the matter, and wc aro not going to hare our clothes and hands ruined In this way. Several of our neighbors who know have proved to us that Washing Sodas, Potash, Chloride of Lime, and " soap substitutes" are most injurious to clothes and hands. " Free alkali " ln soaps Is practically the caustic soda that brims tho clothes. Why, you daro not keep Caustic Soda In a Un canister; lt must bo in an earthen Jar, or It will even corrode the tin !
