"Selections. A DYING MAN'S STORY. NOTES BY HIS PHYSICIAN, When I was young I had a friend whom I loved better than life itself--better than anything but Ggace Claussen. He was named Benjamin Redburn, and we had been schoolmates, and were now together in the great importing house of Claussen Brothers. He was a dashing, splendid, handsome fellow--I quite a quaker, and no beatty; but we were seldom apart. I introduced him first to Grace Claussen, and I thought that he understood that my greatest hope in life was to make her my wife some day, Perhaps hadid not. My father and Mr. Claussen had been dear friends, and the old gentleman liked me. There was nothing to prevent me from making my way in the world, and offering Grace a home and a portion worthy of her; and I thought she liked me, and . knew of my love for her. I was glad that she liked Ben, and never a bit jealous when she spoke of his good looks to me. Iloved to see them talk together, and hear him say how sweet she was. I fancied that he meant to.téll me that he was pleased with my choice. The happiest part of one's life is always that which makes the poorest story. - The days passed on very quietly; we were often together --Grace, Ben, Grace's cousin Rose and I. We took walks and went to hear plays together. We sang all the new songs in that pretty music-room in the Claussens' house; we talked over wonder- ful plans, and built magnificent castles in the air. We were always to be together, all four of us. I believed that Grace and I would belong to each other, and that Rose would marry Ben. What the oth- ers believed I do not know. It seemed to me then, that they thought the same as I did. : All this went on for a long while. Ben madé the first break in it. A cousin of low who spent money fast, and had a way with him that somehow made me shun his society. He thought more of himself than was quite bearable; or rather, he ex- pressed his egotism more plainly than most people do, and so offended those who had sense enough to veil theirs more [closely. Ben was tantly his panion, and so we fell apart; not that I cared less forhim, but that I felt he did not care for me. Soon also I found that Grace and Rose were in a Measure parted from me. I often found them absent from home, dri- ving or rowing, amusement with Ben and his cousin. There was sone talk at our place about Ben, Prudent, old - clerks shook' their Miss Grace Claussen had engaged herself tohim. I used to reply that I was not Miss Claussen's confessor; but the question did wound me as the stab of a knife might. I now believed that she had given Ben her love; and though I did not wonder at it, pon with me. | gentlemanly. his came to our town from Ireland--a fel- | or at some. place of | heads, and said that he drank too much. | Others asked me whether it were true that | for I knew how superior Ben was in ap- | pearance and manner te myself, I had | once fancied that Grace liked him the best.

" As I talked to him he looked downupon | it with his black lashgs sweeping his crim- | son cheek, and the dimples coming. and | last T said-- "Ben, they say you are going to marry Grace. = Is it true!" He looked at me then in a startled sort | of way. " Jack," he cried, "you wouldnt mind much if it were sol" "It is so, then!" I asked. "1 hope 0," he said. said 'No." "God bless yon both! 1 said, and I meant | that from my soul. "You are the best fellow that ever lived said Ben." But I was not.

I shook hands with Ben and went "She has not HT thought then that I must soon die; but T had not learned how much a man going at the corners of his mouth. At | I warked hard, and was spoken: of as a steady young man who would do well by the old clerks of the store. Of Ben they began to speak. doubtfully. He spent too much money, and had been led into wild ways by his Irish cousin, they said. But the talk could scarcely have reach- ed old Mr. Claussen; or if it had, he gave no credit to it; for when the first snow lay on the ground I heard that Grace and Benjamin were to be married in a fort. night. I thought I should feel no worse for that news, but I did. The whole room, desk and packages, and clerks, and all be- gan fo swim before me. I heard a noise like the roafing of the sea, and I knew that if 1 did not get away I should have them telling how Jack Harrison had faint- ed when he heard that Grace Claussen had jilted him. I got to my feet and walked out of the room pretty steadily. 1 went straight up to the loft where packages were stored, and there sat down on and knew no more about it. That was at five. o'clock. An hour after I came to myself, and found that I was alone in the building. Everybody had gone for the night, the doors were locked, and I might have made what noise I chose without being hurt out- side. It was no pleasure; but, after all, no harm was dome. I could make myself comfortable for the night in Mr. Claus- sen's office, where, besides the great safe and the pretentious desk, all pigeon holes and drawers, stood a great arm-chair and an easy sofa. Thither I went, and upon the sofa I threw myself down, and soon slept soundly. I dreamed of Grace, as I had done every night for a long time. I dreamt that she came to me in tears, and then kissed me. The touch of her lips in my dream seemed to awaken me. I started to a sitting posture, and then listened. There was a sound below--a little gra- ting sound, stealthy, yet sharp.. Ia a mo. ment more I heard a door open and shut, and a light step on the stairs. The truth flashed upon me--burglars had entered the building. I had no wea- I did not know how many were approaching, and I had never boast- ed of any very peculiar strength or 'prow- ess. I certainly would not have admitted myself to be a coward; but I had no thirst for unequal combat. I determined to conceal myself till I had discovered with whom I had to deal, and drew back into-the shadow of a pro- jecting window, with my eyes fixed on the door. one, At this door ina Toment more a figure entered--tall, broad shouldered, erect, So much the moonlight told me, as it fell through the window panes. . The figure looked familiar. The next instant the gas was lit, and I saw it was Benjamin Redburn, My blood curdled in my veins, my heart stood still. In a state of horrible suspense; for movements. I saw him go to Mr. Claussen's desk and file the lock away. '1 saw him take thence the safe keys and open the safe. 1 saw him take thence certain rolls of notes, and count them with the trembling fingers and frightened eye of a thief unused to but I was no more likely to die than I had' beh. "You shall not leave the place with those notes," I replied. "" We shall se," he said, and a gleam of passion shot from his eyes. : I returned his gaze, but it was simply firm decision to do my duty. " Come, Ben, call the better man into your heart now, and return the money." He had a white face towards the door as I spoke ; and as [ ceased, he suddenly took the roll of notes from his breast, crammed them into my hands and fled. Surprised at this sudden surrender, I stood clutching the money in my fingers and staring at him, when another figure before me: You can guess the rest. for burglary. There was every proof against me.

At its gate a woman was standing; she turnéd towards me. In the moonlight,*] saw a wan, worn face; but I knew it' was what Grace had faded to. She called me by name ('Jack Har- rison") and put her hand upon my arm. There we stood, face to face. " You've come back," she said. ""'Notto trouble you," T answered. Her hand closéd on mine. "Jack," she said, 'a woman cannot be a man's wifé without learning him by heart. There's, a mystery between you two. He fears youn; will you tell me why "No," 1 wid]-*v0, Grace Redburn."

Apropos of this branch of our subject it may be remarked that a gentle- man of many years experience in Califor- nia and elsewhere, possessing a thoroughly practical knowledge of the subject, has just returned from the country watered by Nichola Lake, where he has selected home- stead for himself and friends. This gen- | tleman tells ys--and it is 'really nothing new--that in 1io part of the world has he seen unhoushed stock, or; indeed, the most tenderly cared-for-stock, looking so well asin British Columbia.

While the child was still taking its milk, the mother was summoned to the font. In her agitation she drew the bot- tle from the babe's mouth hurriedly, when the nozzle caine offand the milk was spilled upon the child's new clothes. 'When the clergyman took the child in his arms, he looked down at it and asked the mother what name should be given it. She, with {her mind troubled about the accident, 'thought he was asking how the clothing became soiled, so she answered, " Nozzle come off." Rather surprised, he asked again for the name, and she, thinking he did not understand her, bawled out, " Nozzle come off, 1 say!"
