CHAPTKB III. .«f\ Summer waned, and the autumn came 'With a breath of freshness and a sobering touch that lent a fuller charm to the mulga ridges, and chastened the sun's heat with gentle breezes. Its first month brought no new experience to the two lonely dwellers by the Salt Lake further than that testified by the change iu heir surroundings. They lived their solitary life â€" undisturbed, ex- cept by the rare visits of the sheep over- seer from the head station â€" pursuing a daily routine that seldom altereil. 'The -old shepherd fulfilled his trust to the utter- most letter. He scarcely ever allowed the child out of his sight. He made her a bunk in his hut, and every night undressed her, and remained by her till she bad fallen «aleep. He looked after her with a tender- ness ner own mother could not have sur- passed. His (juiet dock re<)uired little care ; of their own accord they would come •nd go to the yards at the accustomed time ; and so he vas able to devote him- self almost entirely to his little charge. No Act of bis that could give her pleasure was too much trouble for him. He lived in the -child. Her slightest wish was law. Almost the whole day was spent in trying to amuse her. At first little Lizzie enjoyed to the otmost the liberty and independence of her new life. She had no lessons to do now â€" no reading or spelling. And Scotty cooked her nice things. She could have as much '• brownie " as she wanted. It was very '^ice to have so much cake ; and sometimes he made her "lolly" from the brown ration sugar. Then he got her luscious currajoug roots â€" bush cocoanut, as he called it â€" and wild fruits and berries and nice sour binil grass. It was all very pleasant at first, •ad Lizzie felt herself a veritable ijueen. •Scotty would do anything she asked him â€" make her toys and tell her stories and carry her pick-a-back when she was tired, and catch a sheep for her to play with, and hold her hand at night till she fell asleep. But soon the solitude began to weigh upon the child's spirit:. She longed for her iatber and mother again, evenifor the sound of the hammering and the ring of the a.xe strokes that used to make her head ache .so. The bush was so silent now that some- times It frightened her, and even the batter- ing of the mawl on the iron wedges would have been a welcome change. As the days dragged on their weary length this feeling became stronger and stronger. The child began to pine for other companionship than that of the half-witted old man ; the very intensity of his affection became irksome to her. And so the months ofautumn passed, and then a sudden change came to the mulga ridges and the silent Salt Lake. The wet season was unusually late that year, but when at last the rain did set in, it fell in un- asual ijuantities. For two day: it came down iu an almost continuous downpour, and then cleared off, only to recommence in lighter showers. During that time little Lizzie was confined to the hut; and a weary, 'weary time she found it. The old shep- herd would take advantage of any teuiix>- rarv break in the weather to let his flock out. in order that the sheep might pick up • mouthful; but he would not allow Li/zie to accompany him, fearful of her getting wet. The rain came down, and the patient sheep stood nearly all day long with hang- ing heads under the lee of the brush yards; the mulga ridges and the Salt Lake were blotted out ; the air was heavy and moist ; and the hut was so dreary that poor Lizzie, ased to being out in the fresh air all dav long, hardly knew what to do with herself. All Scotty's efforts failed to amuse her anv longer. She longed for some change in her dull life; she sighed for the return of the snnshine, for her father and mother to come back again. It was better when the rain cleared off, «nd the warm sun came out again, and made everything bright and pleasant. As though by magic the mulga ridges, with the Btoney hollows between, assumed a new appearance. Two days of bright weather were sufficient to bring the sweet-smeiling herbage out, and to cause the grasses to put forth their tender green shoots. Pools ({listened in the hollows ; the red loam -be- fore 90 parched â€" was moist and soft, and exhaled a fresh earthy smell that mingled with the more delicate perfume of the young **Slierbage. The mulga trees assumed a iresher green ; the drooping fronds of the tall peiipermint trees dripped a resinous thanksgiving for the fresh nutriment their spreading roots sucked up ; even in the patches of scrub the rain seemed to have washed off some of the dinginess. All was bright and fresh, and Lizzie, freed from her imprisonment, forgot, for the time, her â- weary longing and impatience. The two vere seated one day aew the gibbera hole, now overflowing and filling the narrow gully. The sheep were scattered along the edge of the Salt Lake, nibbling greedily at the tender young herbage that bad sprung up, as it were, almost by magic. Old Scotty was gazing out at the desolate waste of the Salt Lake. •' Why are you looking like that ?" asked Lizzie curiously, laying her hand on the old man's knee. " I'm thinking what a terrible place it is," he answered mechanically. "Look at it. It's nothing but a steaming bog. And see, it's trembling and shaking like a hungry thing. It's hidyus." The lake presented a strange appearance. A gray exhalation, drawn out of the rain- sodden, spumy soil by the heat of the sun, partially hid its surface ; through it the vilty incrustations glittered with a strange salorless shimmer. It may have been the cobration of the heated air, or it may have been the (juivering of the rising mist, but the whole surface of the lake seemed to be trembling and shaking. " Ay, it's the curse," mattered otfl Scotty, fearfully. 'â-  It's a drefful thing to see it ; it drors the life out of yoa. It's always worse after the rain." " Couldn't you walk across it now ?" asked the child, gazing with a shudder at the misty waste. " Walk ! It's nothing but a hungry bog that would swallow you up. Nothing dare go on it now, after the rain. See how the sheep keep away from it. They know what a hidyus thing it is â€" and I know it, too. Look at it shaking. Come away, child, or it'll blight yoa the same as it has dune me." The next day, as they were returning with the sheep, toward sundown, the crack jf a whip in the distance suddenly broke the stillness of the bush. '• It's mother and father !" cried Lizzie, with a joyful cry. "Oh! they've come back at last." She ran in the direction of the sound, leaving old Scotty to yard the sheep. Soon the creaking wheels sounded near at hand, and the dray slowly came into view, sur- mounting the last of the mulga ridges. When it stopped at length, before the tent left standing by the fencers, the little girl, weeping bitterly, and with her hand clasped n that of Duke's mate, approached the old man. " They've not come," she cried, sobbing pitifully. " It's only Larry come alone," The man nodded to Scotty, and gave him the usual bush greeting. " Yes, I'm by myself this time, Liz," he said. " But don't yoa cry. I've come to take you to mother." " To take her away !" cried Scotty in a scared voice. " Ay. Her mother's waiting for her at Gidanga. But I'll turn outthe horses first. They've had a heavy time of it. I was near boiled up by the rain. Them mulga ridges are as soft as butter now ; it was as much as the horses could do to pull the empty dray. They'll be glad of a spell. | He unharnessed the horses, and then, leading them down the gibbera hole for water, hobbled them out. Scotty watched him as though in a dream. It had come to an end, then, at last '. The child was to be taken away from him. Their happy life together was over. He would see her no more ; hear the sound of her voice and her happy laughter ; hold her hand in bis ; watch her untroubled sleep, no longer. She was to be taken from him. His feeble mind had hardly realized that such a day must come iu the end. Happy in her companiousbip, he had never wought of separation. It had seemed as if their peaceful, happy life must go on forever. And now the evil day had come. He was to lose her. .\ terrible despair â€" all ti, • more powerful by reason of its dreadful suddenness â€" took hold of him. Heart and brain felt numbed andstupitied. He uttere<l one hoarse cry, but that was all. His grief and despair were too deep for outward ex- pression. That evening, when little Lizzie had been laid tenderly to rest by the old shepherd, the fencer told his story. " I didn't tell her," he said, seated on a wooden block before the fire, " because I didn't want to frighten her. But there's been an accident. Poor Duke's dead â€" crushed under the wheel of the dray. It was at the Culgoa crossing. There wasn t much water in the river, but the crossing place is a bad one. I was in the dray holding his missis up, preventing her from being jolted, for it was nigh on her time, and she was very weak. The place was pretty steep and rough, and be was leading the horses down. There isn't a brake to the dray, and the leader foil, coming down on him. The wheel went right over poor Duke, crushin' his head in. lie was aead when I jumped down and pulle.l him out. He never moved. It was orful sudden, poor fellow." The old shepherd listened as though in a dream. He was dead, then â€" her father â€" and still they wanted to take her away from him. " I took his missis into the township," Larry continued, " and poor Duke's body, too. She had a bad time of it, poor soul ; but I got her in safe to the doctor's, and she's there now. She got a child â€" a boy, and I've come out to take little Liz to her. She isn't comin' back here now her old man's killed, and I ain't either. I've given up the fencin' contract, the boss allowing me and her for what work me and Duke did. She hadn't got the heart to come out here again, and I'm going to stop and take care of her. Duke and me were mates for nigh on five years, and I'm going to look after his missis and the kids. We're going to get married when she's better. So I've come out with the dray to get the tent and tools, and take little Liz back with me to Gidanga." Poor Scotty ! His paralyzed mind hardly understood what the other wa.s saying. Oniy one idea whirled through his brain. Her father was dead, and they still wanted to take the child fro#i him. " No, no," he exclaimed, answering his thoughts more than the other's words. " Don't take her away. Leave her with me." " Leave her? What wo,uld I leave her for ? Her mother wants her." " But! want her," he cried iu tones of agony. " I can't give her up. She'sniiue. I love her so. Oh, leave her with me." The fencer looked with an air of astonish- ment Ht the trembling old man. "Why, you're off your head, mate, " he said, with rough good nature. "I suppose a mother can have her own gal. No ; I can't leave her. I've come out special for her. " " I love her so, I love her so," mattered poor Sctty. " Oh, you'll get over that. There's others coming out to take up the fencin'. There's a contractor coming with five or six men and his family. He's got four children. You'll find one of them to take up with. " Scotty made a hopeless gesture, and his head sank on his breast m mate despair. " Well, I'll turn in. I'm pretty tired," said Larry, rising and laying his hand on the old man's shoulder. Don't be down- hearted, mate. You'll soon take up with theui others. I'm going to spell the horses for a couple of days. 'Then I'll pull down the tent and load up and be off." " Little Lizzie," murmured Scotty, wag- ging his head unmeaningly. " No, no ; don't take her away." The next two days were spent by the old shepherd iu a state of pitiable collapse. The shock was so sudden that it seemed completely to take away the remnants of reason that remained to him. Almost for the first time during all those long years he neglected his fiock. He never went near it, but sat for hours together holding the girl's hand in his ; or else, when she ran away to join her newly-found companion, in gazing vacantly out at the Salt Lake. His mind seemed to be completely unhinged. He mumbled unmeaningly to himself : his head wagged from side to side ; bis bleared eyes were sometimes dimmed by moisture, sometimes lighted up by a gleam of excite- nioiit. .\t times he followeil the child about like her shadow, praying her in broken accents to stop with him, wildly offering her every inducement he could think of. At night he sat by her bed. gazing absorbedly at her peaceful face, listening to her regular breathing. He would sit motionless like that all through the night, listening, watching, bowed down with anguish and despair. Toward the eiui of the second day a change came over him. He muttered con- stantly to himself ; his hands and arms moved restlessly : his eyes gleamed with excitement. Her father was dead ; why should she be taken from him ? That was the one thought that surged through his mind. The man who had come to take her away was nothing to her ; he should not have her. The old man's mutterings and his wild exclamation showed what was passing in his mind ; but he made no fur- ther appeal to the fencer. And so the evening of the second day came, and on the morrow Lizzie and her new protector were to take their depar- ture. The tent had been struck and rolled up, the tools collected, the dray laden, and everything was ready for an early start at sunrise. Scotty passed the night at the child's bedside, at first iu dumb despair, then in gradually increasing excitement. It w^s the last night. In seven hours she would be taken from himâ€" in six â€" in five. The thought was madness. Once he woke her gently to ask if she would not stop with him, and when she answered yes, fretful at being aroused, but knowing with child- ish intuition that that answer would sat- isfy him, a gleam of wild joy lighted up his face. After that he never stirred again during the whole of the night, but sat there with bowed head watching the sleeping child. With the first gray streak of dawu afoot- step outside the hut aroused him. It was the fencer, who had camped for the night under the dray. " Hullo! You up ?" he said, peering into the dark hut. " You're early. I'm going after the horses, for I want to make an early start. Uake up the fire and put the billy on, will you ? Liz and me have got a long day's journey before us. I'll wakeher up. It's nearly time she got dressed." It had come at last, then. " No, no," cried Scotty, suddenly start- ing up and brandishing his arms iu mad excitement; "leave her be. She's not going. She's going to stop with me ; she Mkid so." " Goin' to stop with yon ! You're off your bead. Hers, get out of the way and let me pass." " No, no; stand back." The man made his way into the hut ; but Scotty, whipping up the child from the bed, with a hoarse cry darted past him in the obscurity, and gained the door. Kudely awakened, little Lizzie began to cry. " Where are you off to, you looney?" exclaimed the fencer. " Come back, will you ?" But the old shepherd, still grasping his burden, ran iiiiickly from the hut. Utter- ing a startled uath the man followed, try- ing to oveftake him. Outside, a grey mist obscured everything. Nothing wos vibible but the nearest trees, standing ahaduwy an<i impalpable like phantom forms. The Diulgu ridges were veiled by the dense fog ; the Salt Lake wos nothing but an indis- tinguishable mass of shadows. The old man's fiying steps took him in the direction of the gibbera hole ; he stag- gered along the top of the rock, the child crying bitterly in his amis. He did not Seoul to know where he was- -his sole idea appeared to be to escape with iiia burden from his pursuer. Ho staggered blindly across the plateau of rook, slippery with the fog. A shrill cry broke from the fencer's lips, and he stopped suddenly, with blanched face. " Stop, stop, vou madman," he screamed. The Salt Lake ! The Salt Lake !" Right beneath the feet of the fiynig shepherd curled the chill mists that hid the lake. But he did not seem to be con- scious of anything. He staggered on, stumbled, recovered himself, and then tottered blindly over the edge, the crying child tightly pressed to his heart. There was a loud scream from little Lizzie â€" a hideous, dead thud as man and child fell into the morass- a dull splash of the foul spume â€" a sickening gurgle as the choking slime closed over them â€" and then all was quiet. The Salt Lake had its victims at last. The Italian Chamber of Deputies yester- day passed a Bill to increase the army, en- tailing an additional charge of 92,200,000.

MEXICO SHAKEN. An Earthquake Shook YmUrday nomine .Seared the Natives. A last (Sunday) night's City of Mexico despatch says : A heavy earth(iuake shock was felt in this city and throughout the valley at 2.50 this morning. Saturday afternoon had been extremely warm, iii fact the weather for the last four days had been extraordinarily warm for this region, which generally enjoys a very mild degree of temperatnre even in sammer. Late Saturday afternoon there were several whirlwinds iu the valley and in the city, carrying clouds of dust and fine gravel high in the air. Old citizens, with the memory of previous earthquakes iu mind, predicted shocks here, and to-day they are regarded as prophets. At exactly 10 minutes to 3 o'clock there was felt, not only in the city but suburban towns, a violent shaking of the earth or sort of lifting motion which lasted five seconds. Next there came, pre- faced by a low roar as from the bowaib of the earth, and accompanied by a stiff breeze, a violent oscillation of the earth from east to west, which awoke nearly every one, lasting, as it did, thirty-nine seconds. Houses swayed as if they were ships at sea, and persons arising from their beds were in some cases thrown with force to the floor. Bells were rung in hotels, and everywhere doors were forced open. Then came still another oscillation of much vio- lence, proceeding from north to south. During this shock crockery was thrown down and pictures demolished in several houses. A scene of the wildest confusion followed. Thousands of persons dressed themselves and did not go to bed again. Reports received to-day do not show any fatalities as the result of the earthcpiake. At the School of Mines the 8e»smic instru- ment showed that a heavy shock had taken place. These instruments are self register- ing, and prove that the shock this morning was a severe one. The weather today is still warm, aud another shock is predicted. â-  ^ The C >rr,fct Time. There are very few men who do not pride themselves on always having the correct time ; aud wonderful and delicate mechan- isms are devised to enable them to do so. But the more delicate a chronometer is made, the more subject it becomes to derangement, and unless it be kept always perfectly clean it soon loses its usefulness. What wonder, then, that the human machineâ€" so much more delicate and in- tricate than any work of Manâ€"should require to be kept thoroughly cleansed.

Even consump- tion (which is lung scrofula) is traceable to the imiierfect action of this organ.
