on a plan that is desirable to all. How do these objections appear to you, Lucy?" "Isympathize with you fully, Edward. I have no doubt that Eustace's plan could be most successfully carried out, but the turmoil and distress you have passed through of late are too fresh in my mind far me to feel anything but repugnance at the thought of seeing you again enter Upon the same business, even under such pleasant auspices." "So that plan is laid on the table, Eus tace, and though it was a grand one I am glad that it did not meet with favor," said Gteorge. "Now, father, please call for plan the second." "Yea, Eustace, we would gladly have It. Ton mußt not think me obstinate or inappreciative of the really sound, goo<? judgment your first suggestion evinced. Only circumstances make it undesirablo witfr the present state of feeling." "You will all recollect," resumed Eus tace, "that fine country residence about $0 miles from the city that old Squire flontgomery used to own, full of shrub bery, fruitg and vineyards. I have bought ft as an anticipated wedding gift for Lil lian. George's remarks about Ms tastes for amateur farming brought my pur chase at once to. mind, and the idea that in your hands it might be made a most delightful and lucrative arrangement flashed upon me like inspiration." "Hurrah! Here's a chance for our amateur farmer and horticulturist," cried Ralph. "A second Daniel I Oh, wise young man, how I do thank you! Any chance for me, eh?' "Yes, mocker," said Eustace, laugh- Ing heartily. "I was going to offer you ft place as plowboy. You could manage to ride a sober farm horse, couldn't you? And upWf Mr. Newton, if this place can oe made of use to you, will you not give me the ppportunity of placing it In your hands, leaving you to arrange all the preliminaries to your own satisfaction, only stipulating that you will not make a business arrangement of it between us as with, a stranger, but give me my place as a son in the matter." Again the parents' eyes met, and this time there was no mistaking the mean tag that long, earnest look revealed. Pride in the filial affection of one they had 69 long loved, and intense satisfac tion that each day's development of his noble nature gave increasing assurance of their daughter's happiness. Lillian's approving smil© was ample delight for her lover. Ralph was longing to banish the momentary silence by some waggish remark when his father said: "I wish, Eustace, you could realize' bow truly we regard you as a son. But before I reveal your mother's thoughts and wishes and my own, or reply at all to your suggestions, I must bespeak your patience while we, as is most-isst; listen to a word from all, „ .George, my son, what have you to offer now?" So the various members of the New ton family agreed to the plan summed up by Ealph. "Well, I vote for the country, the farm ing operations," said he, "and we will make our Rose a true, genuine Yankee housewife, Jasper, a burning and shin ing light among our southern dames. Whew I No offense, my lord, I trust I You surely can put up with a little sport without such portentous frowns." "I am not conscious of frowning," said Jasper moodily. "But I own Ido not understand the spirit there can be in speaking of your sister as doing hard labor, nor will I tamely listen to your eneers against my countrywomen." "Nor will I hear you, Jasper Gren ville, speak in that tone to my brother," said Rose, laying an ice cold hand on her lover's arm. "You strangely forget your self to imagine an implied insult from one who has ever been a true and loving friend." "Pardon me, Rose, I have no wish to imagine an insult, but it sounded very like it." "You are in a strangely suspicious and captious mood tonight, Jasper, and could I believe for one moment that our re verses"—— "Say it not, Rose, dear Rose! You know perfectly well you have no cause to believe me capable of any but the ten derest and truest sympathy." "Pardon the interruption," said Mr. Newton firmly, "but this must cease. In my presence disputes or unkind re marks can never be tolerated. It is un locked for, my friend, to see you so dis turbed by a simple remark, which, al though it may have seemed ill timed, a Bhort time since you would have been the first to laugh at and enjoy." CHAPTER VH. Mr. and Mrs. Newton were unable dur ing the evening to forget the intimations George had given them respecting Jas per's predictions. They struggled faith fully against suspicion and would have rejoiced to be convinced that thej had been mistaken. But that Grenville had com© to them that evening laden with , some disquiet which he was anxious to conceal was too apparent, and that Rose was disturbed and made uncertain by it was also equally manifest. After all were seemingly calm Mr. Newton again referred to Dunbar's prop osition and acknowledged that they had always indulged the hope that some time they might retire from the city and de vote their last days to just such pursuits as were now open to them. But present indications portended a • year of strife, and any day might see our j country involved in all the horrors of j civil war. Was it wise, therefore, to enter upon an occupation that would be difficult to manage, particularly should such a calamity come upon us? He then acknowledged that every scheme which had risen before his mind as desirable had been checked in the outset by the steadily increasing conviction that the arrogance of the south was fast taking such shape as would compel the north to meet it with the strong arm of law, if not with military force. ] For a moment Grenville's face was in dicative of such intense and passionate emotion that it very nearly mastered him, bufc his eye quailed before Mr. New-1 ton's steady look, and George's attitude | greatly disconcerted him. j Most fortunate for him, Ralph had drawn Rose's attention to himself, and

neither remarked his strange excitement, | but it was a sad confirmation of the par- ■ ents' fear for their daughter's future. Noi could they fail to notice that while Dun bar's countenance evinced sorrow there was no mark of surprise. Lillian's fears were also awakening, and George's Indignation could hardly be controlled. A sign from his father of warning—al most of entreaty—restored Ms composure sufficiently to esoape Rose's notice as she suddenly exclaimed: "Ralph says he will accept Eustace's offer of a plowboy's place, only, by the I way, until he sees if our country shall need him in a less peaceful field." "Oh, my children," said Mrs. Newton, "do not give utterance to such a thought. Wait, hoping that God will restrain the ; I folly of our misguided brethren and keep ,us all in peace. Should our country need any of you there will be no withholding the most precious. But the time is not j yet!" "No, my dear wife, not yet, but any week, any hour, the storm may be upon us, and it is wise in whatever form it comes that we are not found unpre pared. Still my impression is that we may manage to bring the farming j ncheme into some definite shape. Or course, Eustace, you and I will enter more fully into details after I have had % day or two to think upon it. "One week will bring everything to a close here and leave us free to enter up- j 1 on other labor; therefore you had better take Lillian and her mother out to the place on Monday and learn if all is in habitable order and bring back a full report. Should everything be favorable jfou and I will have an agreement drawn Qp that will be satisfactory to both, guarding my pride and your affection from collision. "Of course this is but a rough draft and very crude. Reflection may greatly modify and perhaps compel us to relin quish it altogether, but as I have rough ly sketched it how does the idea of this 'new life' please you all?" "I would ask nothing better, my hus band. If I remember aright, we cannot fail to make labor a pleasure in such a spot." "I am sure it will not take loEg to make my hands acquainted, with real la bor," said George, "an<J I would serious ly propose, father, as soon as you can decide that you allow me to begin the work preparatory to moving the family." "Indeed you may, my boy, and I shall cheerfully find you active employment in a few days, for we can afford no loiter ing now." "Well, father, you may as well find ' work for Alfred and m© at' the same time," said Ralph. "We have no inten tion of "being the idle ones, I assure you." "My son, I cannot yet bring my mind to allow either of you to leave your stud ies till your full course is finished." "Excuse me, father; I cannot consent to that delay. I mean to begin with you at the very beginning, and I believe I love study sufficiently to promise that my evenings and leisure hours shall be employed in continuing the course I am I now on." ! "I am sure you could, but lam very j reluctant." "That is to say," said Rose, "seating I lerself on a footstool by her father's knee and smiling roguishly up into his face, "our good papa has to battle with his pride a little on this point also," "Ho, no, sister," interrupted Lillian. "I think it is affection, not pride, that disturbs our father." "Well, Lilly, that is the most reßpect ful way to state it, and I must own the | most correct one too. But, father, you I will not insist on Ralph's returning to college when he cannot help knowing that now, if ever, ia the time when we should all co-operate. I know if it were ' me I should study to no purpose." ; "Well, dear, we will think of it. Per haps you and Ralph are right. But I don't like to think so." "Yes, father, I am sure they are right," said quiet, thoughtful Alfred. "And let me beg you will not separate me from this work and insist upon my remaining in college." The young man had spoken timidly, but his face was glowing with deep feel ing. He was at once interrupted by a simultaneous voice from all. They were fully united on that subject, Alfred's education must be finished. He listened with attention and heard each objection to his wishes, and then all timidity van-^ ished, and one of those changes so pecu- * liar to his face transfigured him. The earnest, manly dignity with which he set aside the objections raised commanded a respectful attention. He modestly reminded them he had heard with great interest, but in silence, all that had been said of future plans, because being so young he felt his part was to work whenever the mode of oper ations was defined, but he surely had not deserved to be severed from all he loved and trained for a different sphere. With a tinge of Ralph's humor lie re minded them that they were always urg ing him to be less sedentary and live more in the open air, and now a way waß open to make that a duty which they had only set before him for idle amusement. How proudly all listened to the young lad's manly words, and his father could not but admit that he was really not in circumstances to carry out their earnest desires for their youngest without an outlay that was scarcely warrantable. "And in acknowledging this, my chil dren, which I own I do with very great unwillingness, I show to each of you that it will take time and very close watchfulness before we learn to adapt our expenditures to our present income." The family now prepared to separate for the night, understanding that after the visit to Eustace's place the course to be adopted would be definitely settled. Toward the close of the evening Gren ville aroused himself to take part in the general conversation, but it was with a visible effort. Eustace bade them an affectionate good night, but Jasper's preoccupied manner could not be concealed. Rose lingered with him for a few momenta in the hall, and on returning to the family said anxiously: ''I can't learn what ails Jasper. Som©» ] (To be Continued)

In searching for the cause, sus picion fell on the tea they had used. A sample taken from a one pound tin is use was analysed and found to contain strong traces of muriatic arid, titt presence of which'is caused by the use of spirits of Baits in welding the parts of tin together. The analyst warns consumers that tea packed in small tins, owing to its very absorbent natuw, is very liable to become impregnated with this acid, and therefore dangerous for human consumption, and advises that the very safest package to purchase is that packed in lead with an inside lining of vegetable parchment. This style of packet is quite impervious to the air, and tea m packed has been known to retain al its aroma and strength for a period of five years.'

SAINDEJ* Sc »ous JEuca lypti Extract. I Under the distinguished patronage of His | Majesty the King of Italy, as per communica tion made by the Minister for Foreign Affairs through the Consul-General for Italy, at Melbourne, March 14, 1878. Awarded diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medical Olinica and Universities all over the Globe. There are imitations of Eucalypti Extraot in the market, products of simple distillation forming crude resinous oils. In order that these crude oila may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUCALYPTI EXTRACT, which is recognißed by the medical division of the Prussian Government to be of perfectly pure origin, as per information forwarded to us through the Consul at^ Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we state :— It is proved by tests by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Greifswald, Prussia, and reported by Dr. Scbu!z,Professcr of Parroacology, at Boa, and Professor Dr; Moeeier, Director of the Medical Clinics at Greifswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of aoida, resinous and other substances, adherent to primary distillation, will develope the B<»native qualities proper to the plant Alierude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts are to be classed according to the named authorities, among the turpentines, which are abandoned long since as an internal medicament. These crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts, are discernible :— 1 By their deficiency in pnngenb odour— which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extract develops most freely through its surplus oxygen. 2 By their alcoholic thin and mobile appear ance being reduced in specific density through the presence of acids. 3 By their taste, the result of the contracting tendency of resina and tennates. If these crude oils, so-called eucalypti oxtracts, are applied by mistake ia cases of oroup, bronchitis, diphtheria, internal cflamations, dysentery, etc., the con sequences are most appalling.
