Ihrq»-ladies were, seated in Agatha Foster's parlor j Miss Fortescue, large, dark and. of uncertain age, who mon- opolized the most comfortable arm- chair; Mrs. Becker, shrunken and sandy, who: was constantly sliding oft the sofa and reinstating herself with a Jerk, and Miss Agatha herself, who sat apart from the. others, glanc- ing ttneasily'out of. the window, as if distressed by their/, garrulity. Miss news is scarce. Sometimes she the flaMrorr. For my part j would nevergo to that trouble,\ But Agatha oould.not respond t o her staid humor. She helped put away the wraps, and inquired after thesuburban friends. \You look pale ; aren't you well?\ asked Miss Nannie when they were seated. Thegirldroppedhereyes. \Nannie I have some news for you,\ she said with, an effort; \I-r-last night—I promised Mr. Peters:—to— to marry him/ Then she sighed as if relieved of a great burden. The room was still, utterly still. .-If! Miss Nannie were surprised or shocked she gave no token, She only sat quietly \ looking at the girl and taking time to collect;,- Agatha never lifted her eyes until, after some moments, her cousin cleared her throat and tranquilly- in- quired : \ Well,,dear, are you satisfied that you will be happy?\ Then thegirl rose and threw herself upon the sofa. \Oh Nannie, I don't 'know; I can't tejl.\' 'More silence, Then Miss 2STannie ; asked if she lia I told the boys. ' To these women George and Lewis would be \the boys\ as long as they Uvea., \1 told George at noon,\ replied Agatha, in a voice heavy with tears. \Lewis was not here. I wish you would tell him/' \And what did George, say?\ \He only said, ' I congratulate Peters.'\ Miss Nannie leaned.back in the chair and meditated,, bringing Peters up for a mental review. Poor little whiffet I Tobejsure he had money, some social standing and a fair education. They, had known him a long, long time, and even felt for him a, sort of distant rela- tives''^affection. They would do any- thingin the world for him. He often took Agatha about, to places of amuse- ment,., t o church, or riding. But he was aj6 least fifteen years her senior, .and they .had never dreamed of his as- piring to marry her, His appearance was pitifully against him. Miss .N\an- nie reviewed his bad build,; his bowed legs, Ms \ wild eye,\ as she called it, a suspicious eye that seemed t o skirmish aboutftberoom whileits mate regarded you mith steadfast respect. Then she turne| her thoughts to Agatha—Aga- tha perfect in face and figure and en- nobled by education and advantages— Agathia, for whom a senator had pro-; posed t and a congressman languished, to siiy nothing of her lesser adorers— Agatha, who had rejected the senator because he lacked principle, and the congressman because he was a wid- ower. Nannie remembered that the girl had suffered and shed tears over re- fusing these and others, She had a curious disposition, as the boys had said. At length' Nannie, rouged. and spoke/ factory. \X Vita, tell Lewis; and. now, dear, *\\\ slowly and with an evident distaste for the subject, \do you, think you did well to engage yourself to .Mr. Peters before consulting your family?\ \I was of age three years ago,\ she said, regarding him with serene dignity. \ Yes, yes, of course. IJut there is such a thing as advica Mr. Peters is our good friend, but is he a suitable husband for you?\ \ What i s there against him?\ she asked, unflinchingly. She was not blind to her lover's bodily imper- fections. She had lain awake all night mentally endeavoring t o straight- en his crooked limbs and control his recreant orb, -B^? with daylight they had dawned upon her as uncompro- mising as ever. But George would not stoop to per- sonalities. \Nothing he answered, quietly. \Only we have looked very high for you. We want you to be happy.\ \Then do not speak against Mr, Peters,\ she said.in a way that soenied to dismiss the subject. George betook himself to his own room, and -Lewis took his place by A gatha. \I suppose I am t o congrat- ulate,\ ho said, with a careless disre- gard of Nannie's injunctions. \ You do not seem very enthusiastic,\ responded his sister, t-uimly, recalling his secretly-heard exclamation upon first learning the news. \ I can't help it if I don't,\ he an- swered, half impatiently. \You know how proud wo are of you, Gath, and we can't be expected t o think any man good enough.\ She smiled: He went on recklessly: \ I don't be- lieve you knew what you were doing. You don't love Peters, you only pity him, just as you used t o pity the sena- tor and all the rest. This crooked little curmudgeon! Why, he is older than George, and cross-eyed—\ She sprang up in a rage: \ Lewis, you have said quite enough. Never speak to me again. I forbid itP Then she sought her own chamber and threw herself upon the bed. Nannie came to her after awhile \My poor darling! Why are you feel- ing so bad ?\ \ Lewis has been saying such awful things!\ \ And are you quite sure you have made no mistake?\ \Quite sure?\ She arose and arranged her toilet; Mr. Peters was to come that evening. Ho arrived early. Nannie endeav- ored to be gracious, but excused her- self, leaving Agatha to her luver, the boys having both gone out. And Agatha, with Lewis' cool criticism still ringing in her ears, f ult as if in a dream. Fortunately Peters made ho inquiries as to her brothers' opinions of the marriage. Miss Nannie hod con- gratulated hikvas though$U was satis- date fixed for the wedding, the subject discussed by the Agatha Was a fair young woman, with j you had.: -Better-^ress, it is near dinner- * »oM« head and. a^^ countenanca ex>itlme<\ Jt*^. i X t'- R^t^. •BMmt*+<A s31 grace and goodness. \Set M U»i« moment sue entertained feel- *M5» *«4aedly hostBei to lief callers, ^£k^iuilto,;:xyith.thefamiliar free dom of fellow hoarders in a fatnily hotel, to-ehat away the afternoon. , At heart thex were immensely sorry that Miss Haniu'ej'osterhadhotyet returned from a suburb, where she had gone' the day before.

There were feair of them, Mass Agatha, her two bachelor hrotiiers, ten and a dozen years her senior, aadSSiss Nannie;who, 'Since their parents'death, had kept the ^iitdren together.

Of her family, George was m shade more Agatha accepted Ws adoration quite passively, and at lost, when JVo had gone, retired to her own room to pity him, and'-teli herself; how much she loved him.' But as the winter slipped away the engagement was announced, and, hav- ing ^remained unbroken, Agatha's brothers even began to feel quite re- signed. The quiet, intense devotion of Nor- man Peters was touching. lie wor- shiped his betrothed; to him she was a very goddess. \If thought Nannie, with a soft- pned regret, \ if he were only not quite so small I If he were only a half inch taller, to be of eyo'n height with Aga- tha! Meanwhile Agatha was fretting her- self to death. A thousand.littie heart- less sarcasms and glances of ridicule, to which Peters, i n his greathappiness, was Utterly oblivious, were constantly stabbing her. Night after night she passed in wakeful agony, the idea of breaking the engagement\ never once occurring toher. She was sure sh& loved him, and. she realized the depth of his devotion. She endeavored t o rise above morbid sensitiveness, telling her- self that p6ople would cease their cruel ways when they saw that she was de- termined to stand by him. But she grew thin, and her face wore a hunted expression. Mesdames Becker and FortescTie now began to circulate petty little stories about her—ingeniously^ constructed, but untruthful romances. Nothing very bad, for Agatha was a woman to whom no doubtful- mist, clung for a moment; but whispers of \coquetry - ,\ \girlish folly,\ and \last resort,\ which were blown from lip t o lip on the dubious breath of friendship, .came at last to'vex the ears of the Porsters. Agatha only grew more pale. Stormy Lewis, however, one day confronted MisS Fortescue in the hall before his sister's room. \I can tell you, madame, that you must dftcontihue your talk of hly sis- ter s \ he cried, angrily. Agatha came out. \Ob* Lewis, .dear,\ . - ije toojr her by the arm. \ Go back, Gath. I've a matter to settle with this lady. She knows %hat mischief she has been trying t o work, and I in- tend the talk shall cease, or I shailtake measures she may hot admire.\ Without a w'ord Mrs. Fortescue turned and (led. y - 4 *I was sorry for her,\ said Agatha; <«\ she looked so guilty and helpless.\ \ I declare I haven't much patience with you,'* exclaimed her brothel 1 , \ t o think that you would defend her, and she every day assailing your good aame. But all your w^ys ofMate1 are provoking. You are going t o niarry a mm you don't love, because you pity., him. 'For God's sake, ^vhy didn't you i been no nor was family* None but Nannie knsw the terrible trembr i n .which the girl existed. She was. moving about, her hands con- stantly occupied. Day after day, rain or shine, the two women were out of doors. !|0|;hey had always an errand, usually one: of mercy. Nannie, how- ever disinclined, would have felt it a sin t o oppose, and so Agatha dragged her off through the. flitting sunshine, the moodiness, the chill, or the storm of the springtime, until one last morn- ing. . • • Itha'dbeen raining for three days, and so steadily that the sidewalk flags were cleaned and whitened. Agatha said they would not be ham- pered with a carriage, and they took a car for a mile or so, alighting to walk a few squares to another line, The storm had abated, and the rain was but a listless drizzle. Agatha slipped and slid once, and Nannie gave a frightened exclamation. \ My.oversiiOes «re useless,\ said the girl, carelessly. \I must have another pair. I have a good deal of shopping to do soon.\ \ Your outfit—\ ventured Nannie, and stopped. Agatha sighed, but the sigh was lost in the noise of the street. A poor little yellow dOg limped out from under a passing vehicle, holding up one paw and yelping pitifully. \ Oh, see,\ cried Agatha, with her eyes wet. \Poor poor doggie! I am so sorry 1\ the yelps died away in the distance, and the ladies went on. A blind man crying \Cough lozen- ges ?\ upon the corner detained them for a moment. In the next block an old building had been torn away to give place to a new one. Careless workmen had left the sidewalk unguarded in one place, a step from which would have landed one in a deep cellar, where lay a num- ber of loose foundation stones. Just as they had reached this spot they were brought to a sudden hidt by loud cries and confusion. Down the street, and directly toward them, came a runaway team dragging a splendid ciirriage. Agatha took an irresolute step for- ward, and then sprang back as the horse dashed up against the sidewalk. The women were thus separated, and in a second Nannie was reaching forward, cold with horror. \ Agatha !\ SIJP cried, 'but too latp. The girl had lost her balance, and had fallen backward from the unguarded sidewalk down into the deep cellar, antl there lay upon the stones limp and unconscious. * * * * * Hlie would live, .Sadly crippled and helpless; the spine jiad been injured and one bip dislocated.

Who wul love and care for him now ?\ Then she asked that he be sent for at once. When he arrived Nannie and the boys were in the room, but they withdrew to the window. Peters' fare was as pale as Agatha's own. \ Norman, dear,\ she said, without a prpface, \I am a cripple for life. I may npver walk again. I sent for you ,—to give you buck your freedom.\ 'A frightened expression overspread his countenance; his lip quivered, and he sank on his knees by the bed and buried his face. \ Agutlia, darling'!\ he cried, with real pathos, \don't don't cast me off, You are a thousand times dearer to me now. All I ask is the right tc care for you\—his voice broke, and he fell t o weeping. By tho window three persons heard it all. They looked i n silence at each other, then Lewis strode swiftly across the room. \ Peters.\ he saidi \ we haven't done right by you. f, myself, have acted despicably. But if you will forgive and forget, it will be very different in the future;\ then Peters, who had risen, s^tood silent and bewildered till, through the mist, the room grew suddenly bright, for they had encircled him and were claspinghis hands with sudden warmth.

The brain requires one-tenth of a second to transmit its orders to thenerves which p\eside over voluntary motion; but thi» amount varies much in different individuals, and in the same individual at different times, according to the disposition or condition at the time, and is more regular the more sustained the atten- tion. Experiments upon over four hundred individuals of all classes; ages and oc- cupations show how great is the diver- sity of opinion as to the size of objects seen through tho microscope* The ob- ject used in the experiments was a common louse magnified t o a theoreti- cal size of 4.6G inches. The majority of observers underestimated this value; two estimates were only one inch ; soven wore over a foot, and one was at least five feet. New students of the microscope usually re- ceive an impression somewhat larger than the real value, and adhero to it for a considerable time. Dr. Mittendorf states that Ameri- can students aro less afflicted with near-sightedness than ilerman stu- dents. The affection is developed by sedentary occupations an I lack of ex- ercise, women being therefore moro liable to contract it than men. It usually appears in childhood, raroly after the twenty-first year. Weak glasses of slight blue tint should bo worn early to stay its progress, as blindness often follows neglect of treatment.

A national characteristic is the re- markable care that Norwegiads bestow on their graveyards, I stumbled on one at Chrrstiansandt on a Saturday evening and f(«m<l it alive with people biisilv engaged i n Hie work of dressing „ U.6 plots and ornamvnting the grayes . I'lie graveyard was not an untidy lieul liko many of our old: churchyards, nor vet was it a stiff and trim garden like ment of Our modern cemeteries. It was ;i quiet and secluded rustic retreat in the midst of a little wood, under the I shade of ash trees, birches, beeches and limes. The graves were not mounds covered with green sod; they stood hiffh idniost like boxes, ami were overgrown with periwrnMe and covered on the top with ilowep eitiier crowing in the soil or in dower-pK or let in vases and crystals X*vaM shapes, that of the cross being the most cdmmph, The caro and neatness with which the graves and gravo-plOts were kept were qult^ remarkabli. Each family plot formed a litUe garden, with walks and flower- lfi£and generally with a little iron seat at one side of it, vvhere the sor-, rowing Wends might sit.and meditate On nearly every plot one or two ladies wore busily engaged in tri.n.n.ng^nd dressing the gardeh.

Fuschias, roses, gmuuums, iiies and other flowers were growing luxuriantly on many graves.
