The warm, glowing afternoon of a
Spanish day was waning to its sunset,
and tho dimness of tlio room where Mara-
qnita was sitting was lighted up by little
flecks of western rays that came through
tho lattices and played upon her white
dress and tho cool wnite of the marble
alphabet. With what joy he now related
to her his wbolu i\fe^—its mournful qhild-
hood and youth, when no souiid of bird
or breeze or human voice could reach his
car; nnd how he used to go wandering
for whole days through pieturo-galleries,
until the idea seized him that he, too,
must paint,- and how that, ever since that j
hour, ho had lived in a higher and mora
exalted sphere, nnd was no longer the
lonely man, apart from his fellow-creatures,' but that his art was the one grand
link that bound him nnd them together.
And what" more did Fernandez impart?*
He told, her, too, that the moment he
saw her he lelt that she wns to bo tho
connecting one between him and happiness.
"And yet how—oh, how* Can I take
you from the living, speaking music of
the world, and bind you to the speechless silence that ever surrounds me ?"
Her trembling lingers telegraphed to
his mind that she sought no higher destiny. It was enough for the affectionate' girl that he loved her. She would
givo worlds that Mb lips could speakj;
but her love could nover be lessened because they were silent.
How to break the tidings to her parents was now the great object of lier sjo-
lioitude; anil on this very night sho had
promised Fernandez [that it should be
told them. He came at the twilight,
held a brief interview with her, and I
then left her to tell what he felt it im-1
possible for him to make them

Db. OXssEMiS, a distinguished aural
surgeon of Glasgow, Scotland, lately read

Si'eakish of tho uses of pain, tlie
£an.<!£<.observes that generally it may be
set down as an axiom that; tlio ahief and
most obvious service of pniu, to humanity
is as a" deterrent and warning sensation
to ward off danger. Pain, however, hns
n secondary nnd educational value as regards tho"mind and. temper, and some
sorts pf pain may be specially designed
for this purpose. In this view, also,
pain has a practical interest, because the
development of mind is a process governed by nnturnl laws of which science
is perfectly competent to take heed.
most of us have opportunities of noticing—if we choose to tako tho trouble.

greeting, but with another language, always understood—the language of kisses.
No, not with words—for the painter,
Navarette, is both deaf and dumb 1 But
there is no need of words for lovers.
And so it was with these two lovers;
they met and parted, with only the
soul's telegraphic signals, and they
needed no echo from the lips.
Donna Maraquita had been invited by
a friend, somo months before, to visit
the. studio of Juan Fernandes Ximeues
Navarette, to see. a beautiful painting of
the Virgin which he had recently executed. This young painter, who was
called El Mudo, from his misfortune,
was rapidly gaining fame, and this very
• painting was tho great stepping-stone
to public favor. The excitable Spaniards warmed with enthusiasm at the
beauty of the head, which wai said to
havo been copied from that of the artist's
mother. Donna Catalinn Ximenes.
Among tho many who visited the studio were Don Albeit and liis daughter.
Tho beauty of tho painting, the filial,
admiring reverence of tho artist in taking his mother's head as a model, the
" silent world " in whioh he lived, all
wrought upon the susceptible imagination of the young girl, and from thenceforward El Mudo was associated in nil
her dreams.
On his part the painter had Been a
vision of beauty such as he thought he
had never before beheld; and yet it must
have< been only the sympathetic and
cordial manner of Donna Maraquita that
induced the thought—for, although ahe
was indeed noble-looking, aud with a
grace blended with dignity, yet so were
many others.
Again and again she came, sometimes
accompanied by her father, but oftoner
alone; And at last tho painter was delighted to find that sho could converse

Single Copies: Five Cents, The warm, glowing afternoon of a Spanish day was waning to its sunset, and tho dimness of tlio room where Mara- qnita was sitting was lighted up by little flecks of western rays that came through tho lattices and played upon her white dress and tho cool wnite of the marble alphabet. With what joy he now related to her his wbolu i\fe^—its mournful qhild- hood and youth, when no souiid of bird or breeze or human voice could reach his car; nnd how he used to go wandering for whole days through pieturo-galleries, until the idea seized him that he, too, must paint,- and how that, ever since that j hour, ho had lived in a higher and mora exalted sphere, nnd was no longer the lonely man, apart from his fellow-creatures,' but that his art was the one grand link that bound him nnd them together. And what" more did Fernandez impart?* He told, her, too, that the moment he saw her he lelt that she wns to bo tho connecting one between him and happiness. "And yet how—oh, how* Can I take you from the living, speaking music of the world, and bind you to the speechless silence that ever surrounds me ?" Her trembling lingers telegraphed to his mind that she sought no higher destiny. It was enough for the affectionate' girl that he loved her. She would givo worlds that Mb lips could speakj; but her love could nover be lessened because they were silent. How to break the tidings to her parents was now the great object of lier sjo- lioitude; anil on this very night sho had promised Fernandez [that it should be told them. He came at the twilight, held a brief interview with her, and I then left her to tell what he felt it im-1 possible for him to make them Lend, When Don Albert and liis wife re I'AliSMiSS DEATH.
