And with its fragrance filled the air.
Out the sweet , red rose , ah , it never knew
Of the Joy it gave to a maiden falrt
The rose knew not , as it drank the dew ,
Of the charm it spread in growing there.
A radiant maiden smiled one day ,
And hope crept into a doubter's breast ;
He turned , transformed , and went his way
With new resolves to do his best
A man had sprung from a lump of clay ,
And the maiden , ah , she never guessed 1

How a ZiOver Brought a Dallying :
Girl to the Point.
The suggestion that brought it all
about came from ine , I believe.
Suggestions of any eort nanally caiao
from me rather than Margery , for I
have in my veins the adventurous blood
of stanch New England ancestry , who
had burned witches and fought Indians
and later pursued a relentless traffic in
wooden nutmegs with the same high
courage and fine disregard of consequences
quences , while Margery is of Dutch de
scent and inclined to be cautions , if not
a bit pig headed , as I often told her.
But no one could help loving her , in
spite of her little touch of Dutch ob
stinacy , least of all myself , for of all
the provoking little women that were
ever created for the express purpose of
charming and tormenting their fellow
men Margery was the most deliciously
dear , and I loved her so well I could
forgive her anything that is , anything
but the way she treated Jack Beasley.
The dance she led that poor fellow
was something to move even a bearded
Turk to pity. For a whole year she had
kept him dangling after her as abjectly
as a dancing doll at the end of a string ,
and yet , as far as we could see , he had
made no progress "whatever in her way
ward affections.
We had been talking things over ,
Jack , Ned and I , in Margery's absence
( I never dared mention Jack to Mar
gery for fear of still further exciting
that famous obstinacy of hers ) , and
even Ned , the most hopeful of mortals ,
had had to admit Jack's chances looked
blue. Ned , be it known , was the daring
youth who had undertaken to guide my
New England enterprise and other vir
tues ( too numerous to mention ) through
life's pilgrimage.
He and Jack were partners in a law
office and occupied the flat on the top
floor , where they indulged in certain
mysterious rites they called light house
keeping , while Margery and I taught
music and Delsarte and practiced the
modest virtues of hospitality in tue flat
below.
Nothing , therefore , could have been
more n't. suitable and otherwise to be
desired than to have Margery and Jack
fall in loye with each other , even as
Ned and I had done. Jack was willing
enough , poor boy , but Margery balked.
It was too provoking.
As I said before , we three had been
talking it over the day before while
Margery was absent teaching the luck
less children of a rich soap manufac
turer to play Wagner on the piano and
had all agreed that the situation looked
hopeless.
Jack had been in the depths of de
spair because the tenor of the choir for
which Margery played the organ had
called three times that week , and ,
though I didn't believe she cared a pin
for the tenor , I had never known naugh
ty Margery to appear more willfully re
gardless of Buck's feelings.
We had parted , therefore , gloomily
enough , after a fruitless conference ,
and I had relieved my mind by being
especially cross to Margery all day ,
though I must own she didn't seem to
mind much.
It was an awful day , raining cats
and dogs , and in the afternoon I got
tired of being cross all by myself and
proposed that we should shampoo cur
hair and dry it on the parlor radiator ,
the only one in the flat large enough for
the purpose. Of course Margery object
ed. Visitors might come , she said , and
then who would let them in ? I scouted
the idea of visitors on such a day un
less , I observed with saraisu. she was
expecting the tenor again.
She didn't notice this stab , so I pro
ceeded to say that as the radiator was
in the corner we could pull our big Jap
anese screen up in front of it and , se
cure in our hiding place , let our entire
visiting acquaintance , including mes
senger boys and duns , knock at the
door till they got tired and then de
part , blissfully unaware of our proxim
ity
Accordingly it wasn't long before we
were snugly ensconced on a pile of sofa
pillows on the parlor floor , wrapped in
our bathrobes and with our wet locks
streaming out behind us across the ra
diator , over which we had stretched a
steamer rug We were armed with a
novel apiece , but soon got to talking
girl fashion and were deep in a discus
sion of Amos Judd when there came a
loud knock at the door.
"Great Scott 1" I exclaimed in a
ttage whisper , the rosy advantages of
iny plan suddenly fading in the cold
light of reality
"There. I told you sol" cried Mar
gery ungenerously , sitting up abruptly
so that her hair fell all about her in a
great shining , coppery shower.
"Sh shut up ! " I whispered , reach
ing out with an agitated stockinged toe
for the bedroom slipper I had carelessly
kicked off a moment before.
Again .the knock came , this time
more imperative
"What , in heaven's name , shall we
do ? " gasped Margery.
"Keep still. " I said sotto vcce.
Then the door handle turned , and we
heard Ned's voice saying"There's no-
body home. Let's come in and wait foi
them. "
"All right , " wan the reply in Jack'a
bass tones. "Maybe it's not the proper
thing , but we might as well risk it. "
And we heard the door close as our vis
itors entered and took possession of our
apartment.
It was too ridiculous. I'd have had
to laugh if our lives had been at stake ,
and in spite of the imminent danger of
discovery in this mortifying plight I
stuffed all of a sofa pillow that would
go into my month and shook till my
sides ached.
It was the expression on Margery's
face that recalled mo to myself at last.
Chancing to glance up from behind a
corner of the cushion.I was trying to
swallow , I caught her listening with
strained attention to something that
was being paid on the other side of the
screen , with every bit of color gone out
of her face and a look in her eyes I'd
never .seen there before.
"Yes , " Jack was eaying , "if they
don't hurry , I'll have to go without
saying good by. My train leaves at 7.
and I've lots to do. "
Ntd lighted his pipe before he re
plied. Dear Ned , I believe he would
smoke in heaven if Peter didn't take
the precaution to search him before ho
let him in.
"I gueps it'll surprise them eome , "
he remarked at last. "Especially when
they hear you're never coming back. "
I nudged Margery violently at this ,
but she didn't look at me the minx
and then , l ck went on dolefully :
"Oh , they won't care very much ,
I'm afraid ! "
"Of course they will , "protested Ned ,
puffing away. "And I will anyway.
Must you go , old boy ? "
"Well , it's this way , Ned : As long
as I hoped that Margery might care for
me I wouldn't give in to my uncle's
proposition that I should marry his
ward , Miss Wilson , and become his
heir , but now that I'm satisfied I have
no chance with the girl I love , I might
as well marry the other one and please
the old man , I suppose. I'll be miser
able anyway. " And Jack heaved such
a sigh that the big paper screen waved
about till it threatened to come down
upon our heads.
I gave a horrified look at Margery ,
but her hair had fallen over her face ,
and I could only see one little hand
clinched fiercely as if she bad a pain
somewhere. I reached dumbly over and
tried to take the little hand , but she
shook me off , so I fell to listening again.
"Well , it's not so bad as it might
be , " Ned was saying encouragingly
"I hear Miss Wilson is a beauty. "
"She is , " said Jack with enthusiasm.
"And then think of the money , my
boy ! Most any fellow would envy you. '
"I suppose so. " said Jack drearily.
"But I must go. Time's up. Will you
say goodby to the girls for me. Ned ?
Tell Margery"
Here Jack choked , and I was so busy
catching a large , warm tear that was
chasing toward the end of my nose that
I forgot to look at Margery , when , to
my amazement , n little figure in a gray
bathrobe , with a cloud of coppery hair
flying after it , bounded right over me ,
tnd , as the screen toppled over with a
crash , I heard Margery's voice cry :
"Oh , no. Jack , you mustn't go ! I I
love you , Jack ! "
I had a confused vision of Jack seiz
ing the little figure in his arms , and
then I started to run. I don't look so
pretty with my hair wet as Margery
does. But somehow when I got to the
door I met Ned , and as I looked up
wrathfully something I saw in his eye
made me stop short.
"Ned Tucker , " I exclaimed , "yen
knew we were there all the time ! "
"Well , " he said , not a whit ashamed ,
"if you will leave the ventilating shaft
open"
"You wretch ! " I cried , and then
something else struck me. "And the
uncle , " I gasped , "and the beautiful
Miss Wilson"
"Are about as real , " said Master
Ned , "as a rainbow. " Edgar Temple

Mrs. Fremont , in a sketch of her fa
ther , Senator Benton , tells the follow
ing story of the French bishop at St.
Louis at the time of the purchase of
Louisiana. She says :
It was a point of honor among the
older French not to learn English , Lnt
the bishop decided that it would be
better to acquire it. especially for use
from the pnlpit
To force himself into the familiar
practice of the language , he secluded
himself for awhile with the family of
an American farmer , where he would
hear no French The experiment proved
very successful Soon he had gained a
bufficient fluency to deliver a-sermon in
English
Senator Benton was present when it
was to be given , and his feelings may
be imagined as the bishop , a refined
and polished gentleman , announced :
"My friends. I'm right down glid to

There is a story told among the peas
antry of Sleswick , the former Danish
province annexed after the war in 18G4 ,
of how Prince Bismarck was confound
ed by the tongue of a shepherd lad.
Shortly after the close of thewarPrinc'e
Bismarck went on an inspection tour
through the provinces , as he desired to
study the feelings and sentiments
among the people He talked with the
peasants , getting valuable though not
always agreeable information. For days
he was annoyed by constantly hearing
dogs called "Bismarck. " Desiring to
know what it meant , he called out in a
gruff voice to a shepherd boy who had
uttered the dreaded chancellor's name
in connection with his dog-
"Are all dogs in this country named
Bismarck if'
"Ach nein. mein herr , " the urchin
replied as he doffed his cap ; "es ist
