How lou" will it be betoro we snail probably hear from Jacquetta 1" she asked. Paul could not sav exactly, but the question reminded him to ask if Miss Rivers had seen the new silhouette pictures just I'nm Paris and her attention was switched off in another direction.

Pretty soon she forgot her prejudice, for it was evident that Mr. Lathrop could not help being charming. He made a Ions call, went away, came next day with the silhouette pictures took Lmdsley to see a rare collection of private pictures in the evening, gave her Howers, and the next day met her in Williams Everett's. I am going to morrow, but wish to see you first may I call he asked. she answered.

She was busy and a little distracted with new orders. She really slid not give him another thought until he came next day. She tumbled a roll of drawing board, a stereoscope, a photograph of Murillo's Virgin and a crayon case out of an easy chair, and gave him the seat. 1 cannot stay loug. i told you had errand."

She had been familiar with him too tree, one was so innocent, she had not thought to be afraid and he was without honor, and had no respect for her. Her heart felt like stone only that there wai a gnawing pain at it. She sat, pale and silent, though she was wild to smite her companion in his handsome, waiting face. Then her pride took lull possession, Mrs. Paul Lathrop would hardly con sent to such an arrangement, even if I were willing," she said, looking straight into his bland, brown eyes.

"My mother No si; your wife." My wife I never had any," he replied with a kind of schoolboy candor and blunt ness that would have been amusing if Linsley had not been so deeply moved. She could not speak. Her companion's face grew shocked. Good heavens lie cried. The two pale countenances confronted each other.

You spoke of your brother in law, and I have thought you married all the time." "My brother in law! I thought you would understand. I meant Jacquetta's husband John Blandford. He is from Philadelphia. He bought the marble Bell Hughes ior his new house," said Paul beginning to apprehend. Why did'nt you say soT' wept Linsley, reproachfully.

This' trace of feminine weakness in hit angel made the gentleman laugh. My dear girl, this is an awful state of things; but you see it is all a mistake. I am not married, and I meant to offer myself from the very hrst moment I saw you. Jacquetta has employed reams of stationery telling me about you I fell in love with you independently of that. 1 am nch and you are poor, but 1 am not an insane idiot you are sweeter and better than any girl of wealth I ever knew, and if 1 might call you my wife, 1 should be more truly a man of fortune than I have ever been.

Experiments with Fetrolenm. Some time since a series of exneri ments Was instituted in St. Louis for the purpose of ascertaining the practicabil ity of using petroleum as a fuel the manufacture of iron. These experi ments have non been continued for several months, and the results are sur prising, as they go to show that the liquid fuel is not only more economical than coal, but is far better adapted for the conversion of ore into superior qualities of iron. One of the tests em ployed would seem to demonstrate con clusively the value of petroleum heat in iron mills.

A lot of pig iron smelted with raw Illinois coal in 1859 had been thrown aside as worthless owing to the large abasement by sulphur, and though trequent attempts had been made from time to time to reduce this mixture to merchantable iron, they had all resulted in failure. A mass of this impracticable material, 1,000 pounds in weight, was treated with petroleum hent, mid in a single hour's time was turned out in the shape of iron of the finest nualitv. closely resembling steel, perfectly free irom suipnur and all other impurities. It is claimed that common Iron Moun tain pig iron can, by a single application of the liquid fuel in the puddlinsr fur nace, be made into the best flange boiler iron, equal to the first quality of Sligo or Low Moor iron. It is said that iron manufactured by this process exhibits a tensile strength far greater than uiai oi jjow moor iron, as well as a capacity to sustain weight much above the average.

The experiments show that petroleum is cheaper than coal in its use and handling, so far as the heating oi tne iron ior tne rolls is concerned, while the saving in "scraping" gives it a still further economic advantage, actual trial having shown a saving over coal by its use of 993 pounds in the amount taken out of the scraping furnace from a quantity of 7,050 pounds of iron 1 1. TWl a wnicn was meiiea np. wnen it is con sidered that these experiments have been made under many disadvantages, with temporary machinery, and hitherto untried apparatus for the application of the fuel, their great importance to. the iron industry of the country will be reuuuy appreciated. A biseuLAB Case Captain Elisha Freeman was granted a divorce from his wife, Charlotte A.

Freeman, in San rancisco, on the ground of fraud in pro curing the marriage.

Thus to the Earth the fading light Gave benediction of the night. A MISTAKE. My brother Taul Miss Linslev Rivers," said Mrs. John Blandford, introducing lier pet brother to her very particular friend.

Mrs. Blandford was just married, and on the eve of starting for Europe, and around her stood a group of friends to whom she was saying good by, Linsley smiled upon I'aul Lathrop, and was then seized UDon by the bride "JSow, my dear cirl, write often to your old Jacque. Don't get blue, do your hair in a becoming way, and, my dear, doii't go and get married because did. 1 dare say it's horrid I am beginning to suspect so, lor John says I've cot too much baggage, when, Linsley, you know there isn't a thing I could do without And he won't let me take Ibmp, thouzh the noor aear win go into consumption anil di without me oh there's the bel! Good by, darling. Good bv, Paul, gee Linslev safe en shore.

Good by, papa, and Nellie. and Aunt Lou Amid tumultuous kissing the croup was torn asunder, Linsley at length finding herself on shore, and watching the receding steamer. bo we have really lost our Jacouetta. Miss Kivers. Linsley's thoughts had gone, in advance of the steamer, to Rome.

They came back witn some difficulty. les," she sighed, unconsciously, Jac quetta has gone to Europe." Mr. Latlirop smiled. He carried her shawl and wraps to the carriage. iou will allow me the privilege ol calling on you, Miss Rivers Certainly," with a little wave of her hand.

She sank back among the cushions, and the carriage rolled away. Excitement exhausted Linslev. Now that the wedding was over and the bride gone, she went to sleep for the better pait oi iwo aays and nights. Linsley was not a wealthy voune ladv she was only a little water color arthte, living in rooms just out of the city. Her brother artists said that she had talent she was a favorite with her natrons.

Jacquetta Lathrop, the heiress of a cool hundred thousand, had fallen in love with her at sight, and made her her Wnm friend. Jacquetta was a good natured, energetic brunette; Linsley was one of lloimess golden blondes: conseauentlv the attraction was mutual, after a fashion. Linsley had often heard her friend speak of her brother Paul. She knew that he was a lawyer, in New York but more than this she did not know. She was never interested people she had not met Jacquetta had other brothers Will, Oscar and Harry; they were all married, she thought, but was not sure.

They lived South or West, with their families. It did not matter to her about people she was never uiceiy to see. And Paul Lathrop she was equally indifferent to. As I said, after the excitement of the weadmg was over, she was in a torpid condition lor the better part of two days. Then she roused up and began to look over her cards and letters, for Linsley had an extensive acquaintance.

She had a power of her own, which was neither in her beauty nor in her talent and her acquaintance once made, she was not easily forgotten. One letter from her only relative, a retiring maiden aunt; two from pupils; one from a broken hearted lover (Linsley always had one article of this kind on hand), and one from in old professor of painting her best friend; cards from half a dozen people, friendly artists and other acquaint ances among them one of Paul Lath rop's. Jube, the porter, had had these missives in charge for twenty four hours, awaiting her resuscitation. "Well, Jacque's brother has been here. Pity can't stand a little excitement without becoming cross as a bear and invisible to mortal eyes immediately afterward Heigho Well, this won't do I must go to work." Linsley got out of her easy chair, dashed cold water on her face and temples, pushed her clustering hair into a little velvet cap she wore while painting, and sat down to her easel.

She had a spray of Jacquetta's orange flowers, in a cup of water, and she began to draw it. Pretty soon there eame a knock at the poor, and Jube put his woolly head in. Want to see gemman, Miss Rivers No, I don't want to see anybody; but if any one has come vmi mm acnri l. 1 .11 Whereupon Paul Lathrop immediately presented himself. He looked a little amused Linsley slightly confused.

I had only a day or two more in the city," said Paul, seating himself easily near her easel. I wanted to do myself the pleasure of calling. Pray go on with your work, if you don't mind it's very interesting to me to see artists at work. Are not these some of my sister's bridal blossoms?" He was very easy and charming. Linsley began to smile and look entertained as he talked.

And while this unexceptional gentleman sat opposite her easel, with tiie light on his rich hair and mustache and faultless dress, it occurred to Linsley (surely it was not strange), to wonder il he were married. Somehow she thought not. Just then Mr. Lathrop was saying Lovely little figure in marble, by Bell Hughes My brother in law bought it of the artist in Philadelphia." His brother in law his wife's brother 1 Then Mr. Paul Lathrop writ married.

Don't yon think so, good people? Exchange. TAKixa Cams or Lamps.

The easiest way to clean petroleum lamps is to wash with thin milk of lime, which forms an emulsion with the petroleum, and re moves every trace of it, and by washing second time with milk of lime and a small quantity of chloride of lime, even the smell may be so completely removed as to render the vessel thus cleansed fit for keeping beverages in. If the milk of lime be used warm instead of cold, the operation is rendered much shorter. The best time for cleaning them is in the morning, for reasons of safety, if not convenience. Scarcely a week pass durinff the winter months, but we read accounts of frightful accidents from kerosene lamps, exploding and killing, or scarring for life women and children. A simple knowledge of the inflammable nature of the fluid would probably put a stop to nearly all the ac cidents.

As the oil burns down in the lamp, a highly inflammable gas gathers over its surface, and as the oil decrease the gas increases. When then oil is nearly consumed, a slight iar will often inflame the gas, and an explosion is sure ir 1. Atirln.nHrv. 1 1 .1 lentil awiiww, ucruij.iig uci uuiuuu uuvi vicwuA with it.

Now, if the lamp is not al lowed to burn more thanhaif way down, such accidents are almost impossible. Always nil your lamp in the morning, then you never need fear an explosion Careless About It. It is astonishing how culpably careless people are about their wills, and what trouble they thus entail upon survivors.
