Mrs. Jennifer said nothing more; but to one used to the interpretation of dumb show, a world of monning might have been deciphered in the awift way in which her needle flow in and out of the cambric ruffle sho was hemming. “Olive 1” she called, sweetly, as the closing of tho front door gave notice that tho visitor had at lost taken his de parture; and by way of answer, a bright faced young girl presented herself in the door-way—a girl with shining browh tresses tied with blue ribbon, sott brown eyes, and afresh, blooming .complexion, like the pink blossoms that clustor on tho knhnia bushes in May. - “Well, auatl” she said. “I’ve been wanting to spoak to you for some time, Olivo, dear—sit down,” purred Mrs. Jennifer,. “Your uncle's circumstunces ate' not what they were, as 1 suppose you ore aware?” “I did not know it," said Olive, •lightly changing color.

Olivo thought of her Cousin Elise, white handed and elegant, who did not even make her own bed or dust her own room; sho remembered tho two damsels whose business it was to wait upon Mrs. Jennifer and her younger daughters. Sho knew that although her own father had died in wretchedly destitute circum stances, yet tho time had been when ho helped Mr. Jennifer in such a manner that the latter had solemnly promised never to forget tho benefits rendered to him; and she also knew that upon that father’s deathbed, Mose3 Jennifer had resolved to take his place toward his or phaned child, so long as they both should live. “Does my undo know of this?” she asked, suddenly lifting lie frank brown eyes to tho crafty face of the matron. “Certainly 1" calmly lied Mrs. Jenni fer, without so much as a couscience- etricken blush. “Then it is settled,” said Olive, with a certain gasp in her throat. “I will be a dressmaker 1” “Iff this really and actually your wish, my dear?” asked kind Moses Jennifer, when Olive told him of her determina tion that evening. “Is it not yours, uncle?” Hr. Jennifer looked up with a little Btartled glanco as the question was asked, “My wish is for whatever will make you feel happy, child 1" Moses answered, for in his secret heart he believed that Olive Martin was not content in his fam ily, and deeply regretted the circum stance. After Olivo had left tho room he turned to liis wife. “She doesn’t seem so crazy after the idea as you gave me to suppose, Marga ret!" he said. “You can’t always judge by her man ner, Moses,” answered the subtle wife, who would have deluded tho serpents own self had she been iu Mother Eve’s place in Paradise. “I am sorry to be obliged to say so, but I do think she is a little inclined to be deceitful!” “Poor child, poor child!" muttered Mobes Jennifer. “We must remember, bluntly ask oo had/ not knew, she jlj ,an- HE IfNEW SHE SUFFEBED. “My wifo is very slok, doctor." “Is she suffering much?" “Suffering?

What should I tell him?” “Oh, Moses!" groaned Mrs. Jcnnifor. “Oh, papal” shrieked Elise. Honest Moses stared helplessly from one to tho other. “Wiiat do you both mean?” ho de manded. “What have I done?” But he could get no satisfactory infor mation from either of tho ladies. Olive Martin was busy over the puff ings of a bluo Batin skirt, when Mrs. Parkman came into tho room. “A gentleman to see Misb Martin," said she, primly. “As a general thing, it is against my rule to allow my young ladies to receive company pertaining to the other sex, but—” But Olive escaped from tho room be fore the lecture was lmlf over, to see Clarenco Walbridgo in the shop without. “Well, Olive,” ho said, gayly, as he took both her hands in his, “you Bee 1 have found you out 1" “Found me out?"

In order to insure more safety in ropes used for scaffolding purposes, particu larly in localities whore tho atmosphere is destructive of hemp fiber, such ropes should bo dipped when dry into a bath containing twenty grains of sulphate of copper per liter ol water, and kept in soak in this solution some four days, af terward being dried. The ropes will thus have absorbed a certain quantity of sulphate of copper, which will preserve them for some time both from the at tacks of animal parasites and from rot. The copper salt may bo fixed in the fiber by a coating of tar or by soapy water, and in order to do this it may be passed through a bath of boiled tar, hot, drawing it through a thimble to press back tho excess of tar and suspending it afterward on u staging to dry and hard en.

Snake Eats Snake. While walking over a dry mesa in Arizona, I noticed a small snaker slowly crawling to the shelter of a mesquit bush. On capturing it I found it to be of a very dark olive-green color, in large square patterns, the lines botween the pads being of lighter green; underneath, white, with very dark-green blotches. Its head was very dark green and rather small; it had small fangs. The length of the snake was nineteen inches. No ticing that the body seemed much dis tended, I opened it, and found nicely packed away inside, the body of an or dinary brown-striped "gross snake,” as we call them here, twontv-two inches long. This green snake may be a new ' species of snake-eating serpent. The grass snake is very swift, and I am puz zled to know how tho green snake caught it; it was swallowed head first. —New York Dispatch. MAKING CERTAIN.
