§ *# $ RIGHTED AT LAST X Royden raised his head, and for s ~ _ mipute or two looked dreamily around "I buve very little to add to my faâ€" thor‘s confession. What I told at the trial about Mr. Myddelton‘s assuming a disguise at our cottage was true in every particular. What I did not tell, was his confession to va, so honestly given, and which my father has related. IIe threw himself upon our merey, and we botrayed him, and swore away his life. ‘Phat thought stings me, even now, with a prin worse than death! "It was an unmatural and unenconrâ€" g~ 1 thought of mine. but I should have said, up to the day of that trial, that I world have laid down my life for Gaâ€" briecl Myddelton. ‘Then I proved its falscmess by laying his life waste inâ€" gtead, and my fear of my â€" father‘s threats and anger, and my submission to his command of obedience, are no exâ€" "But I have promised it shall be writâ€" ten, and I will keep the outh my ‘ather made me swear, as I have kept the other oath he wrung from me three yecrs ago. ‘The task of writing bis conâ€" fession has been hard arfd sore, but to write my own will be far harder. My father looks upon his bodily sufferings as his punishment; but no punishment which could be given me on earth eould relieve me from the load of guilt which has been secretly and slowly killing me since I met that one glance of Gabriel Myddelton‘s, while the judge pronouncâ€" ed upon him the sentence of death. My fither olmest seems to feel that be is pardoned for his share in this vile deed; I wish I dared to hope that when I stand upon that awful threehold of the door of denth, I might feel that I, too, am pardoned.

A. STINSON FROM STONE IN * THE BLADDER. Many a man suffers untold tortures from Stoneâ€"inâ€"theâ€"bladder, before he discovers what is wrong with him. No disease causes more agony, and none is more easily contracted. Those who suffer from it do not need to have the symptoms of the disease described to them. They know all about them from bitter experience. What they do want is to find some way of getting rid of their affliction. To find such a way, simple, sure, and painless, read the following staiement:â€" 844 Queen St. E., Toronto, Nov. 24th, 1899. For more than three years,â€"up to five months ago, I endured sufferings as severe as mortal can endure. The tortures I went through were more than my tongue or pen can describe. Those who have not experienced the agony cannot understand it. My trouble was stone in the bladder. I used one kind of medicine after another without getâ€" ting even theslightest relief. I thought I could never be cured, and death would have been preferable to the torâ€" tures I was undergoing.

Then, after a few mirutes, a sudden recollection struck him, and he turned sharply round.

So it was that mo breath of suspicion attached to either of us, and permission was resdily granted me to see Gabriel Myddeiton, on the plea that I bad lived near him all my life, and w* had been children together "By skilful means, my busband atâ€" tructed the turnkeys as far as possible from the passage to the cell, though of eourse they stayed where they could see me walk back to the dogâ€"cart.

On the highâ€" lzl‘d I may have to walk ten miles beâ€" f I can obtain one. I will manage it if it is within man‘s power." _ Roydeo knew ‘this well. It was not in ignorance that he started on that ride. But the thorse that he had bought was fresh and feet, ond the floodâ€"tide two hours‘ distant yet. Bitting straight and firm im his saddle, his fingers tight mpen the reim, Royden galloped along the narrow and uneven path, while the parsengers he met looked nfter the horse and rider wonder‘ngly. Once or twice the young horse faltâ€" ered in his pace; and once or twice he siipped, and would have fallen but for the strong restraining hand upon the rein; but still be made his way bravely under the frowning rocks. "On, good fellow, on!"‘ Now with caresses, now «with stroke®, did Royden urge him, while the tide rose and rose. That bay was reached at last of whose danger, at the flowing of the tide, he had told Lady Somerson and Homor, as they stood at the window looking down upon the epot. Ah; it was so near home! It almost felt like having reached home, to have reached this well knowm spot, on which the windows of the Towers looked. But it was twe miles across the bay, and the tide was riwing, and a mist gliding northâ€" ward from the sea, and slow!y shroudâ€" ing horse and rider in its chilling, darkâ€" ening embrace. It was within this man‘s power; and. an hour after the London traim bad passed om its way northward, Royden rode from the old farm where he had promptly bought a horse, which its masâ€" ter had mever hoped to sell so profitâ€" ably. The animal was . young . and strung, and fresh from fts stable; and Royden had mounted with a pleasent sense of its power and will to carry him flectly along the dangerous shore. The master of the farm, as well as his old father, urged Mr. Keith not to attempt the ride. The tido was treachâ€" erous, they said, and the distance across the bay much greater than it seemed. But Royden, shaking the men by the hand in bis quiet, cordial way, told them he had no fear, only a great anxiety to get to Westleigh Towers that night, and much confidence in h‘s new horse. "I know the vov well." he added, in hig plenssnt. carmt voice, "and it is a grond June evening." On and on, while the sun slowly nearâ€" ed the water. On and on until it set, und Roydem breathed a sigh of relief, for the path had reached the shore at last.

When that moâ€" ment‘s panuse was over, leaning forward in his sddlo. he pressed his knees agninst his horse‘s flanks, and dashed mlong that treacherous road beside the treacherous sen.

Professor Francis Gotch describes the electric fish of the Nile, of which the Egyptians made pictures thousands of years ago and which still inhabits the waâ€" ters of that river, as being provided with An eleetrical organ that incloses the whole body. It is situated in the skin, and when viewed with a microscope is scen to be composed of about 2,000,000 benutiâ€" fully formed little disks superposed upon connected rows of minute compartments in which are the terminals of nerves. The shock is produced by an intense current which traverses the entire organ from the head to the tail of the fish, returning throngh the surroundings. 1t stuns small fish in the neighborhood. Profesor Gotch likens ite action to that of a self loading and self discharging gun. The electromoâ€" tive force of the organ in a fish only eight Inches long can, he asserts, attain the surprising maxintum of 200 volte.
