V mother should have tender and
loving but firm control of her child

carefully shield it from self conscious¬

does from scarlet fever and whooping

set it a daily example of justice and

She, Spoke For Herself,
One of the remarkable features of
the French revolution was the almost
universal madness that ruled the time.
People of every class and degree were
insane, some in one way, some in an
ithor. Every passion feeling and
a motion ot the human heart was bu
perlatively and morbidly developed.
Martel Du Buis, a young man of
good family, but of somewhat limited
means, was, at the: breaking out of the
revolution, affianced to the daughter of
n tradesman named Zoulouche—a man
of wealth, but no principle.
Celeste was pretty, artful, ambitions
and treacherous; anil when she thought
it to her interest to get rid of her
lover, see secretly denounced him,
and he was arrested and thrown into
prison.
Meantime a young widow, Mine*
Romaine, who had secretly conceived
a passion for him, on learning of his
incarceration and its cause, determined
to save him.
She went, to the jailer, and by means
of a bribe, for money was potent in
those days as well as in these, obtained
an interview. Dn Bo is was surprised
at her visit.
“I have come,” she said frankly, “in
the hope that I may save a life for
which I would freely give my own.”
“I do not know as I understand you,
Madame!” replied the wondering
prisoner.
“Probably not, for l am a woman;
and women are sometimes enigmas
even to themselves. 1 will not ask if
you know me, for you certainly do
not, but do you know my name?”
“Yes; you are Mme. Romaine,
widow of Jules Romaine, daughter of
Griistuvus D’Auvergne—young, lovely,
accomplished and rich.”
“I see you know how to flatter even
in prison!” returned the other “But
let us not waste time in idle words.
Your life is in danger, and l would
save it! Wo have ton minutes to con¬
verse in private. You must escape
from here and fly from France! You
may be tried ut any hour; and, once
;ried, you will be condemned and exe¬
cuted.”
“But of what am l accused, and by
srboni?”
“You are accused of being an aristo
jrat, a royalist, and in these times of
blood the suspicion is enough to bring
four head to the block."
“But who so base ns to denounce
me. Madame? I would know the name
M my enemy, that, if ever I do escape,
I may at some future time exact rep a
ration for tho injury.
“Oh, perfidy?” exclaimed Mme.
Romaine. “Prepare yourself, Martel
Du Bois. to hear a terrible truth.
Win re you trusted most you have been
most basely betrayed, Celeste Zou
touche is your secret denouncer.”
“Impossible!” cried Du Bois,
gering under the mental blow, i ' lm -

my faith. ’’
“We arc wasting precious time,”
said , J41 the other, „ glancing , . at her , watch. ,

“Thou welcome the guillotine!
Why live in a world so treacherous
»nd base?”
“But all are not like Ueleste Zou
louche.”
“Yonr presence here. Madame, is a
proof of thai. But my faith is shaken
aud life seems of little worth.”
“We should not be too selfish,” re
joiued Mine. Romaine, hurriedly,
“Live, Martel, or one of your friends
will henceforth be wretched.”
“Is it so?” exclaimed Dn Bois, as
♦he truth flashed upon him.
“This is no time for false delicacy,”
pursued the other, with agitation,
‘‘Circumstances have caused me to be

never have suspected, and for which

“If possible 1 will, if only for your

“Quick, then, give, ear to my plan.
Here is a powder, of which you will
take a small portion at a time. It will
make you sick—you will look pale.
Eat little or no food, and you will
lose your strength. The physician
will be called and you will be removed
to the hospital. Once there, I trust I
shall be able to effect your escape.
You will obey instructions? ”

“Religiously.”
“Then if your trial should not come
on meantime you may be saved. I go
to watch and pray and hope. Adieu!
He followed the directions of Mme.
Romanic, and the third dny after her
visit he was removed to the hospital.
Here lie fell under the charge of a lav
sister named Agnes.
“I know all!” she said to him at the
first opportunity, l ( Julie Romaine is
my cousin—1 am her confidante. Wc
have agreed upon a bold and novel
plan for vonr escape, It is this*. You
must seem to get worse and worse, and
at last, at the proper time, you must
feign convulsions and appear to die.
I will cover your face, and, when the
chief physician conies Iri.s rounds, an¬
nounce your death, If he takes my
word for it all will be well; if not, wo
may fail; that is our risk.
“And suppose he leaves me for dead
—what then?"
“Then, after dark. 1 will pretend to
have received an order to have you
conveyed to the dissecting room, where
you will be provided with a surgeon’s
suit, in which disguise you must
escape. ”
Near the close of his fourth day in
the hospital, Martel Du Boiswas seen
by more than one person in convul¬
sions. An hour or two later, when
the pliysiciau made his rounds, he was
covered with a sheet.
“There is no more need of your
services here!” said Sister Agnes,
calmly, as she, intercepted him. ‘The
next patient seems worse ; will you be
kind enough to see him at once?”
The doctor passed on. So far nil
sv<? p
It was quite dark when the body of
I)u Bois was borne into the dissecting
room. The attendants retired in
haste, leaving Sister Agnes and a lad
with him.
ii Now, then, here are your gar¬
ments—quick!” said tho fair nurse.
In less than live minutes the late
corpse looked like a very active and
important surgeon.
“This lad will guide you—follow
him!” said Sister Agnes, hurriedly.
“Linger not a moment. Adieu!
Adieu!”
Five minutes later Martel Du Bois,
guided by a youth,was hurriedly pass¬
ing through the streets of Toulouse.
In the outskirts of the town the youth
led him to an old stable, where they
found two swift horses prepared for a
journey.
They mounted and rode southward,
toward Spain. When morning dawned
there were forty good miles between
them and Toulouse. The second night
they entere a Spain aud were safe.
<< Now> my brave lad, ” said Du Bois,
back to yom . m istress. Mme. Romaine,
and tell her my hand, my heart and
my \< life are at ber disposal.”
She AV ill accept your hand and

They were discussing the wonderful
feats of riders in Wild West shows at
the Uoates House, and now they don’t
know whether to believe Dave Doug

Montana, or not.
“The most expert rider I ever saw
on the plains was a cowboy named
Tom Bride,” he said. i » He was ae
quainted with all the tricks of Wild
West riders and of the regular circus
rider, and was equally adept with a
lasso. His feats with the rope were
remarkable, The last time I saw him
was only a few months ago. near Her

Finding an Egg of an Extinct Giant
Blnl.
A month ago I noticed the sale ii
London of an egg of the extinct giani
bird Epvornis at a high price. The
Epyornis was, in reality, the fabulous
Roc of “Sinbad the Bailor” in “The
Arabian Nights. ” I know of only two
eggs in this country, one belonging to
the Long Island Historical Society and
the other to our own Museum of Nat¬
ural History.
Now one has been brought to Lon¬
don by a Mr. J. Proctor or Tamatave.
in Madagascar. It, was discovered bj
some natives about twenty miles to
the southward of St. Augustine’s Bay
on the southwest coast of Madagascar.
It was floating on the calm sea, within
twenty yards of the beach, and is sup
posed to have been washed away with
the foreshore, which consists of sand¬
hill, after a hurricane in the early part
of the year. The childlike’longshore
men of the antipodes, opining that the
egg had a value, showed the unusual
flotsam about, and it thus came into
the hands of Mr. Proctor.
The egg, which is whity-brown in
color and unbroken^ is a fine speci¬
men, 33j inches by 28 inches, and ar
even higher value is placed upon it
than upon the egg of the great auk,
which lived within the memory of man.
The brobdingnagian proportions of the
egg* are better demonstrated by com¬
parison with the eggs of the ostrich
and crocodile. An ostrich egg is about
17 inches by fifteen inehes, and the
contents of six such are only equal tc
one egg of the Epyornis. The mea¬
surements of the egg of the crocodile
are normally 9 inehes by 61 inehes.
It would require the contents of 16|
emu’s eggs to equal the contents of this

A Currency Mystery.
There are 119,900,000 old coppei
pennies somewhere. Nobody know;
what has become of them, except once
in a while t ■, a single • i specimen turns , up
in change. A few years ago 4,500,000
bronze two-cent pieces were set afloat.
Xliree millions of these are still out
standing. Three million three-ceni
nickel pieces are scattered over the
United States, ’ but it is very rardy

Congress appropriates 1 from §100,
000 to $150,000 yearly- for ,
recoining the uncurrent silver
coins now in possession of the treas
nry. These are mostly half dollars,
and are not circulated because there ii
no demand for them. Not long ago
the stock of them amounted to $26,
000,000, but it is only about half that
now. The money set aside for recoin¬
ing is not intended to pay for the cost
of the minting, but is required to re¬
imburse the treasury of the United
States on account of the loss in weight
which the silver pieces have suffered
by abrasion. This loss amounts to $30
on every $1,000, and it has to be
good in order to set the treasurer’s
account straight.—[Chicago Herald.
