IN A BOTTLE
It was a beautiful day in mid
summer, and the baif-a-hundred-
odd cabin passengers of the good
steamship Nantic were listlessly
lounging about the deck.
I and she sighed—a bitter, quivering
sigh.
I Papa Gale was a rich pork mer
chant, and in his rough way wat-
kind to her.
He paid her liberally for the ser
vice she rendered in polishing np
the somewhat neglected creation
of his two daughters, but they wen

was not by any means a happy one

and he produced from his inner
pocket the identical message sht
had written onboard the N-intic, i n

joy at the strange discovery of your
hiding place,and, a breeze spring

unfortunate accident, which had ho Pe d " ould be waited shoreward
occurred early on the voyage, only
half the distance to their port of
destination had been accomplished
The accident had been attended
with no danger to the precious hu
man freight, but the monotony ol
the voyage was becoming unbear
able, and the passengers were begin
ning to grumble.
Every artifice had been resort* d
to to relieve the tedirra of the slow
ly movi :g days, end now they wei
literally at their wits’ end.
Charades, mock trials, skettle-
and amateur theatricals, had i
turn been resorted to, hut now witl
their faces turned longingly towan
home, they lounged about the di ck
and bemoaned their s.id fate.
A particularly discontented groui
leaned against the port-rail, amid-
sldp, composed of two young ladles,
showily dressed, two young men
who looked rather jiunty in their
semi-sailor dress, a stout, red-faced,
coarse-lnoking man, and an equally
stout, red-faced, and coarsc-lnoking
woman.
The two latter were called “papa’
and “mamma” by the simpering
young ladies, and deferentially ad
dressed as Mr.and Mrs. Gale by the
young men in seini-sailordress.
They were venting their indigna
tion against the steamship, and the
combination of untoward circum
stances that had delayed their voy
age.
standing a little apart from the
jjroup wai a slim, pale-faced girl, in
a dress of quiet-gray, unrelieved
save at the throat, where a cherry-
colored ribbon was gathered into n
pri m bow.
This was Elsie Annabel, and she
was maid and companion to the
Misses Gale, who were named re
spectively Agnes and Eunice.
She took no part in the conversa
tion, but there was a sad and wist
ful look in the gray eyes, as she
turned her face toward the western
horizon.
“It’s outrageous!” cried Papa Gale.
“Shameful !”*choed his wife.
“It’s killing me!” sighed Miss
Eunice.
“I am really fa>nt witfi ennui!”
chiruped Miss Agnes.
“It’s deucedly unfortunate!” cho
rused theyoung men.
“If something would only hap
pen!” continued Agnes.
“I tell you what ?” cried the eld
er of the young men, addressing
Miss Eunice, in particular.
“Well ?” interrogated that young
i«dy, with a listless attempt at in
terest.
“Let’s write letteis to our friends,
enclose them in bottles, and throw
them overboard. They’re no doubt
considerably worried over our long-
absence, and as it’s impossible to
tap tile cable and telegraph them a
message, we’ll make old ocean’.-
waves our letter carrier.
“Pshaw, Rob!” retorted Miss
Eunice, shrugging her shoulders
“How sentimental you are! As
though a letter put in a bottle and
thrown iuto the sea would ever
reach anywhere!”
I’ve read somewhere,” said Rob
Carrington, “that ship-wrecked
sailors often send messages to theii
friends that way. We’re about as
bad as ship-wrecked, why can’t
we?”
“Let’s ask the captain!” said En
nice; and she walked toward tha’
officer, who was moodily pacing u;
and down the bridge.
The others followed.
“Yes, Miss,” answered the captain,
when Eunice had asked him about
the possibility of the bottles being
washed ashore. “I’ve no doubi
they’ll reach shore somewhere. Th»
steward will furnish yon with bot
tles if you desire to make the ex-
peri ent.”
There was something novel ir.
this idea, and every empty botth
on ship-hoard was soon brought on
deck.
Everybody, young and old, begat
to - Lie letters—everybody except
E -it- Annabel.
Nu waitiug kindred anxiously
expected her return, and the only
real friend she had ever bad, hand
some Guy Chambers, was lost to
her. •
Two years before she had engag
ed herself to the young artist, but
they had qnarreled, and separated
in anger, as lovers will.
She was too prood to ask his for
giveness, and he was too stubborn
to ask her’s.
Gradually they had drifted apart,
and finally lost all sight of each
other.
Elsie sighed as these thoughts oi
the past surged through berated,
All «orts of letters were -written,
read over laughingly, placed in
their frail receptacles, and cast into
the sea.
Even the sailors became interest
ed in the experiment, and sent out
messages to wailing friends, or
anxious sweethearts in dear Amer
ica.
“Have you written your message
yet. Miss Annabel ?” asked Agnes
Gale, halting fi-r a moment, besidi
her maid, as shs leintl over thi
rail and watched the tightly-corket'
bottles, as they bobbed up and down.
“My message?” said Elsie, wit!
a guilty star’, for she had just heei
thinking of Guy Chalmers, “Ah—
eh—really—I have no one to writ<
to!”
"No one?” persisted Agnes.
“No!” was the low answer, and
Elsie’s eyes dropped.
“That’s too bad!”said Agnes com-
miseratingly “Everybody is send
ing out a message. If I were you
I’d just write something and send
it off at random. You could sign
your name and address, and per
haps some one would find itwho’d
be anxitius to know who* you arc
and would write. Tnat would b,
romantic.”
“I’ve notaste for romance!” an
swered Elsie, but she nevertheless
procured a bottle, and after a mo
ments thought, wrote on a piece of
paper:
“In Mid-Ocean, on Fteamek
Nantic, Aug. 12.—An accident
which happened to our propeller

Everybody is well.

She placed this si mple message in
a bottle, corked and sealed it, ami
tossed it overboard.
The bottle was particularly long
What answer she made him ca:
but be imagined. Anyway—when
Papa Gale returned to dinner he
heard the whole story, and declared
in his hearty way' that he’d give
away the bride.
Accordingly, as soon as a suitable
trousseau could be prepared,the two,
so strangely reunited, were made
one.
The Misses Gale officiated
bridesmaids, and Bob Carrington
and his cousin were the groom’s
best men
Papa Gale, true to his word, gave
the britie away, aud the great pyra
mid of flowers which occupied the
centre of the banquet table was
crowned by the identical bottle that
was responsible for the happy
event.
Why The ‘.‘Royal” Is The Best.
The improved method by which
it has been made possible to pro
duce pure cream of tartar, has had
an important bearing u|»on the
manufacture of baking powder. By
the process heretofore generally em
ployed, it has been found impossi
ble to removeAll impurities, more
particularly the tartrate of lime,
which remained to such an extent
as to greatly impair the qu dity ot
the cream of tartar, and to inter
fere seriously with the strength and
wholesomeness of the baking pow
ders into which it entered.
In the new process, which is
owned by tha Royal Baking Pow
der Company of New York, and
exclusively employed in its exten
sive tartar works, the imported
crude grape acid is so treated as to
remove all vestage of tartrate of
j lime or other impurities, giving a
product before unknown, a chemi
cally pure cream of tartar.
By the employment of these _su-

Elsie was considerably surprise
when she was told that a genth

She halted for a moment on th
threshold, and the gentleman wh-
had been idly drumming on th
window, turned.
At the sight of his face she reeled
