Of course €very one wished to know just how it was done, and to make It all clear, the prestdeat mounted a rile of sleepers, and told them the whole story. “You all know that in a steam-engine 1s a Dollar and @ furnace, or fire-box. Water 13 put in the botier, and a fire is made in the furnace precisely a8 Ip & tea-kettle on a stove. The water bolls in the tea- kettle, and we see the steam escape. In the epgine the steam ig locked in, and cannot escape, and very g00n it becomes crowded, and if still kept ked in, it will burst the Doller. B- fore this can happen, the engineer opens a valve. and permits the steam to enter two ob- long iron boxes, called the cylinders. Here 1t Meets plece of metal, called the piston, that ‘fits the inside of a ined pretty closely. It cannot get past, 80 1t pushes the piston away Lo the other eud of the cy!nder, A3 soon as this happens, the vaives close of their own accord. and the steam escapes into the open a'r with aloud puff. Then the steatn enters the other end of the cylinder, and drives the pis- ton back ags In this manner the steam pusbes the piston to and iro.as it tries to escape irom the Boller. “Now there is a rod fastened to the piston, and passing through tiie end of the cylinder. Each cylimger has one, and these are connec:ed by means of other rods with the t wheels of the locomotive. You now see that the pis- ten, driven forward and backward, moves the wheels, and thuait is the escaping steam moves theengine. These rods you can see outside the eny ine; the piston and valves are Inside, out of sight. “Now the alr ia elastic, like steam, and it may be used in any engine in place of steam. If alr 1s pumped into a tight box like a boiler, it may be locked up or compressed, and if we were to go on pumping, we might burst the boiler with compressed air. Master Stayboltt knew ail this, and he also knew that when an empty engine, a8 happened on our ride out here, the wheels Will turn round, and these move the rods and the istons, and each cylinder works like a pump. Festead of letting steam out, it pushes air back into the boiler, and very soon the boiler 1s full of elastic compressed air struggling to get out. Master Stayboltt, as soon as the train stop; opened the valves, and the air rushed out the Way it went in, making the pistons move, and the wheels turn round.

Mr. Owens (a gloir of pleasure lighting his face)—Once On a time there lived in the “td! Louse” of a beautiful village a most lovely littie girl with fair curls and the most wonderful daik gray eyes. She was an only child, and cored by her father and mother and ali the Fest of the household, as she well deserved to be, being the quaintest, brightest and most — Uttle creature that ever sang and ced through @ merry childhood.

Mr. Owens—Blue and black, if my memory serves me aright. He was the son of a pretty Itue woman, who, having at lve age of 17 mar- rea for love a poor German geoiogist, found | herself at 20 a widow with no money and a baby boy. An old aunt to whom she applied | Jor assistance offered her and her child a home. That home was the diminutlvecottage to which | Ihave alrtady referred. Here she managed to | make living by the aid of her needle, the lady at the “big house” being her chief patroness. Abd the fact of the lady of the “big house” | being her chief patroness led to the two chil- | Gren growing up, as it were, together. From | the very first the boy constitut himself the | gusrdian and projector of the little gir. He | guideo her first toddiing steps. wag the | first name she ever epoke. And when she grew Old €nough to lead, he followed her faithfully. Never was knight In olden time more devoted to Jady fair.

The picture on the second Plate represents the quarrel She is turning “away from him, with flashing eyes, while she Says: “And yetlama lady.

Patti bas, however, an ever present reminder of that fact by her side Ja the person of Signor Nicolini, whose somewhat uzeaviabie | position, from one polat of view, affords the public a sort of sentimeutai side sLow which they are far from ot appreciating.
