The women, of course, hail to stay thorp, unfortunate creatures, but of us men, most had dragged mattresses out on the up per deck and were spraallng on tb.Mii be elde the after w-hcelhouso. The diplomatist was the only one among us out of complete pajamas; his ncthrr llmba were draped In a silken burmcse lungyl, which looked like a petticoat. The rest of us were too languid for speech, but he, (perhaps through some virtue acquired from his flowing garment) seemed full of sententious utterances, which hc delivered confidentially to the clcsc Itcil sea night. This was ono of tho things ho said: "You may bring n woman from the cndi of the earth and rear her In London nnd Tsrls, cramming her to the pins In the hair with all their conventionalities; but It the ho a woman, she will chuck all such u varnish overboard If cvrr she be stlrrcl by a really mighty passion, and she will how again to broad daylight the naked soul. that was born within her ribs." Fomo ono laughed, Indolently yet unbe lievingly, and then the diplomatist broke out Into a tale In support of hla usscrtton. This Is the talor 4.- i. The noman I was talking of was one of the richest spinsters In tha world. ,She tyas raised some 200 miles up-country from Rio nd had It constantly Impressed on her there that every word sho spoke was law. You see, her father doted on her and all the niggers round wcro slaves. There-' a good dcAl of abuse thrown at Prsill, a being a country where people starve, and die of fevers, and get shot In the weekly revolutions, and robbed by a nystem of hrlgaudago known as legal process; but out of every lialf-mllllon there Is ono man who contrive to avoid these pestilences, and )n consequence waxes enormously rich, He makes use of the less fortunato and treads on their heads with hob-nailed boots to assist him In his climb. There arc few' half-nnd-half people In lira" rll," and there Is a small fistful, an ex ttmely small fistful, of tho very abnot rnnlly rich, Marlqulta'x papa was one of these last. He had Immigrated to the country from Chill In his curly youth, and couldn't say certainly Who Ills' parents were, though ho believed he had Anglo Paxon blood In him. Ills wlfo was a New Orleans creole, who spoko nigger French 'patois ns a native tongue, and emphatically asserted herself to bo an Kngllshuoman. Eo what countrywoman by blood Marlqulta really was It Is hard to say. She spoko English, French, Catalan-Spanish and mon grel Portuguese with equal fluency and In accuracy, and when I asked her once In Paris what her nationality was she said ho mostly put herself down as French. Hut then she added that ho wouldn't In sist on that, because It didn't really mat ter. So long as sho was alive and enjoying herself people might say she va a Yaqul Indian for anything she cared. Hne was a most extraordinary woman. father died when she was Ifl and a afterward she came to Kurope and lived entirely on her own particular hook. 8he, apparently, hadn't a relative .or guar dian, or any governing connection In the -world. She signed her own cheeks, had ah unlimited balance to draw upon nnd acted in all ways exactly as seemed to her best. fihn was rather petite In figure, gloriously handsome and would suffer advice to be thrust upon her own perfectly, and laughed irlcefully at the many attempts that were made, to take her In. On the whple, she wasn't badly educated. for although I don't think Bbo ever trou bled herself to grind at any boo'klearnlng he was very quick at picking matters up nd one can learn a good many things from smart conversation If ono listens well nd doesn't forget. She was remarkably In dependent,' but she knew thoroughly how the conventionalities were marknl out; nnd nhen It suited her purpose to do so as It Renerally dld- sho kept within their bounds For Instance, she had an old stone broke, inuddle-wlttrd marquise of the ancient regime as nominal head of hor hotel In the Boulevnrde Haussinan. nut If sho wanted to fling her heels, up they went, no mat ter who was looking. Martqulta was by no means a difficult person to get to know In those days, und had the entree to her salon almost directly ftex l had taken up quarters In Paris Ban danced divinely as all women with ' peninsular blood In them can do sho was most fascinating to look nt and talk to nnd I expect 1 must have shown pretty clearly liow much I was struck, for only the third venlng I camo across her she coolly told We not to propose to her. "I know you were going to." said she "and I suppose you'll do It ntlll. They most of them do. And then nfterward they get sulky nnd go away. I hato that. I like friends and I like admiration neaps 01 totn. nut wpen I want a man for a husband I'll say. I'm not shy, mon ami. I ll do tho asking rayse)fv" After that and remembering tho money. I held roy tongue, though I was honently rery much smitten with her nt the time nd would havo married her out 'of hand If she hadn t possesed n louls. They transferred me to St. Petersburg nd I lost sight of hor for s couple of years, but whrn t got back to Paris again there she was, Just tho same as before, with most or tho old eourt'ers around her and many new ones besides, She hfcdn't chosen . Mr. Marlqulta yet, but rumor pointed to the lucky man. He was Kngllsh aggressively Kngllih long and thin, milk and watery, profoundly Mgly, and. oddest of all, n parson. To be precise, he was a curato from a small south cast village. On the principle that It was impotslble to Imagine a more unlikely man for Marlqulta to lake a fancy for. I wasn't In the least surprised at her rhilrc; but It did startle me to tlnd that ho' wasn't nn torn eprU In return. He mured about at the wonderful Ihngs In her hotel like a board-school child In the llrltlsh museum: be gajed on the . sumptuously dressed erowds that throng'rd her snlons, and ho delighted In all he fcnw, nut by n singular Irony Marlqulta didn't danle him In tho very least degree, and as for thinking that be'd only to sav "fUrkls" to be master of the whole lot, I'm sure uoh an idea never tanned upon him. He wim an awful thick head, fjood heavens! If any of the rest of us had had things put to us a millionth part is broadly as he got 'om for, mind joti, Marlqulta was never the woman to mince matters I know we should have been down n our marrow bones singing out a proposal Ihero and then, even If It had been In the middle of the Avenue do I'Opora, However, ono day It was reported he had uddenly packed up his traps and bolted ack to Kngland, and of courte all ParU knew why. .Marlqulta didn't make the malltst secret nbout It. I saw her that livening and we discussed the mattor quite calmly, She put It frankly. "He said he wouldn't have me- l-Vncy that!" "The man's off his heBd." I suggested. "'"It Isodd. I might havo had any of the rest of you If only I hid gieu in to your pestering, and heron, tho one man I do nt rays 'no' when I fling the haudker-i chief at his feet.' "Judging from what I saw of the gentle man, he Isn't up in metaphor. Are you cer tain he understood you?" "Am I In the habit of mincing matters?" "On rtoeond thoughts, I'll withdraw the last question. You always speak your mind very bluntly, Marlqulta ns I have reason to know. Still, bcllcvo me. I am sorry for you." "Ily all that's curious, why?" "Hecaujc thus far through life you have! carried everything with a high hand, tx-' nctly as you wished, and so this disappoint- 1 ment. will como all the more heavily." "Monsieur I'Attachc, are you trying to be' Impertinent?" I "On the contrary, sympathetic "t "Ah! I see, you arc Jumping at con- the bush, that I wnnted to buy his yacht. He asked mo if I wished to Insult him. I sad. did he think sho was worth 10,00' He temarked frigidly that as she stood she represented 15,000. Whereupon I promptly offered him 30,000 nnd brought out my check book and filled him up a form. He took It like a lamb. Money's a great thing, Isn't It?" "Hum! You have been smart nbout It. Cnn I conclude the arrangements for you?" "No. I packed off his Icy lordship to manage that. I thought he'd do It better than you could. Now, please tell me how you Intend to kidnap my shy one on board." "I, most Imperial?" "Yes, you. My Imperial highness Is gra ciously pleased to depute that trifling serv ice to your hands." "Hut the thing can't be done. It's against tho law, Why, It would entail penal servitude and I don't know You nren't In your cut-throat South America now, Marlqulta."

This suggestion wan made In an address delivered before the Public School association In Boston a few days tgo. Mrs. I.lvermorc expressly dis claims nny Intention of conveying the Idea that women are unjustly treated In New England, dhe acknowledges that her sex Is not treated with proper respect In that sec tion, but clnlms (hat women are themselves to blame for this because they do not make proper effort to maintain their rights and because they neglect their social and po litical duties.

A pistachio for your Insular strnlghl-laccdness. You have promised nmlgo, and I hold you to your word of honor. ' 1 order; It Is for you to obey." in. She left Paris' by the Canls train cxt morning and for a week I heard nothing. Then a cablegram came to my address, in which words w,ero lavished riotously. Even a millionaire would not have scattered money broadcast Into the tclegiaph dapart mont like that, except In a moment of ex tremity. Condensed, it said that she had failed In her negotiations all round. Tho sweet heart refused: the parson would not listen to reason nnd was living behind barricaded doors, nnd consequently Bhc, Marlqulta', was furious, Knowing her as I did, I smiled grimly at thoughts of the scenes with which that sleepy south coast village would be thrilled. And I'm afraid It occurred to mo that the pull up would do her good. To my taste sho had always been far too fond of riding roughshod ovei anyone who ventured to run counter to her wishes. The cablegram wound up with the cool command that I should go over Instantly and assist her to gain her ends. Of course. It was Just tho sort of thing Marlqulta might bo expected to ask, but I saw no particular reason for compliance, nnd so cabled a refusal. "Can't come. No use If I did. You won't get him. anyway." As fast as tho clerks could flash It through the wires n reply came thus: "See hole. Help ine nil you know to get him. If I fall you may propose to mo for tho seventh tlmo and I'll say 'Yes, darling!' That ought to cccnurage you, If you bcllevo what you wroto an hour nRo. Now come." It was h quaint offer, and, coming from ; any other woman on earth. It would have mado mo tabid. Hut Mnrlqulta was Marl- oultn and a law unto herself. So I wont there nnd then, without waiting to pack. Sho wus stopping nt the Grand at Smith ampton nnd her greeting was a nod and the question: "Well, what's your fcchcmo?" "My dear girl, I rouldn't mako any till I knew how tho land lay." "Pesto! You should havo mapped out fifty, lo suit every contingency. Hut If you are so dull-witted, listen! They are to ho married almost directly, I do not know- how you cold-blooded English work such things, but fortunately some delay sepms necessary. Still, their 'banns' (whatever those may he) havo been called out twice." "Then, by Jove, Marlqulta, you've only a week's law. They evidently funk you des perately and are going to got safely tied together out of harm's way. There's only ono method of preventing It that I can see Order around your yacht, kidnap him on board and once safely nt sea you can afford to wait for terms." 1 said this morc or less In Irony, but to my dlskust she took It up promptly. "Yes, that has good points, thoujjh It Is not altogether practical, as my yacht la at Marseilles and would take too long to get Into commission and bring round Hut I can Improve on It." She rang the bell and sent for tho manager. Tho man put In an appearance Very promptly. "What large yacht Is there here ready for sea?" "Lord Hayhury's schooner clears for the South Pacific, tomorrow, madam," "Owner?" "Lord rtaybu'ry." "Where does ho live?" "Ho Is now staying here, madam. " "rtood. Show me to hln room." "If mndam will follow mo?" The itr of them left me and In about' sixteen minutes' time she returned. Shu How that dreadful piece of midnight man lifting was accomplished I bliiBh rve.i now to recollect. When I broke, un announced. Into his room, the wretched victim waa writing laboriously on blue foolscap. At his elbow was an open book, which ho coyly shut on my approach. Ho was copying out his sermon for tho ensuing Sunday. I put the ease to him bluntly, without throwing In a word for Its defense. He was to como with me there and then. If he enmo pcacenbly, so much the better. If he resisted, I had a powerful boat's crew below who would carry him off. wllly-nllly. recommended him to avoid scandal nnd uproar and submit to the stronger hand. le said he would. He sought permission o pack a small black handbag with books and raiment, but I was too much scared to oltor an unnecessary moment, and carried him off as ho was lu boh-tall coat nnd slippers: nnd tho steam launch set us on board; and the forestaysall sheet wns let diaw and' tho schooner stood off down channel, I ushered that poor devil Into his state room and went to report to Marlqulta. "Won't you go and see him at onco?" 1 asked, as sho lay back on a sofa with a sigh of utter contentment and showed no llsposlllon to move. No. Tbo moment for hurrying Is past anil tlmo shall hnvo a chanrc now. I'm very happy as I am and can quite afford, to wait. The yacht li provisioned for three years, and, If necessary, sho shall keep the seas for nil that while." 'Oood havens! Then you can't expect to keep me meandering about In your train? Why, my dear girl. It would utterly blast all my professtoncl " S'ib laughed coolly, "Pooh! What a hypocrite you are. Not very many weeks ngo your dream (as yon put It) was to bo near mo always. You said you envied my dachshund, And now that you are offerod the chance " She completed the sen tence with an eloquent shrug. "Hut don't fret. I'll set you free tomorrow. Perhaps we shall never see one anothor again," "Unless, of course, you tire of your present game and revert, as per agree ment, to me." "Precisely. When that Interesting mo ment arrives I'll let you know, nut, mon ehe. I wouldn't wait for It If I were you. You might tiro If you did," IV. The schooner hove to off St. Hellers next morning and I took a curious farewell of the captive who was the very picture of mulo resignation, and a warm one, of Marlqulta who expressed herself ns Infinitely obliged to me; nnd In half an hour's time I was on tho St. Malo boat, getting back to Paris, Tho bright city fairly hummed with this last freak of hers, but about my shnro In It I preserved the silence of the dumb, though happily for my peace of mind I cot homo leave directly afterward. Thob. other things filled my mind nnd I studiously for got that lawless raid till Marlqulta forcibly reminded me of It. Tho news camo In an extravagant cablegram from Shanghai, and, condensed, Informed mo that the par son had relented (or been coerced) and mado her his brldo at the British con sulntfl of that .treaty port. I don't think I was surprised. Sho wasn't a woman who ever brooked contradiction. Eh? What's that? What about tha Jilted sweetheart? Well, I didn't Intend to tell you men tnai, uui as I vc ra moien on so deeply already you may as well have thn lot, You see. that was tho matter which occupied mo when I got back to England the population of Massachusetts It Is not surprising that the women do not receive the attention and courtesy' that Is not only duo them, but which Is given them In the morsn sparsely settled sections at the coun try where women are in the minority. What you And anting In this world Is what you most desire. "In tho western part- of our country the society of true nnd noblo women Is fnr morn rare than It Is here In Boston nnd conse quently more appreciated. Tho women of tho west have a much wider sphere of Influence and can assert themselves, and can In tho social nnd business life mnrk out for themselves a career far morn dis tinguished than can their sisters In the cast.

Few women are Lime and Wind, but a majority of women to-day are crippled physically and mentally by female suffering. Irregular menses are sapping their lives and weakening their vitality. Bearing down pains, lfjtor rhota and pains in the head, back, neck and limbs are disabling them so effectually that few women are found sufficient for all the demands of life. It is to these sufferers that WINE 0 CARD 1 1 is offered to-day. That Wine of Cardui will cure you is supported by the fact that 1,000,000 women have secured relief from this wonderful emmenagogue. There are few cases where Wine of Cardui has failed to give relief. Presented with these facts can you go on suffering when your dwggist is waiting to sell you this remedy which will give you strong nerves and perfect health? You need not be a cripple.

I had been a sufferer for ten years with all that could all a woman. Wine of Cardui has done me more good than all the doctors ever did. I ut think I can't live without it, I keep It all the time.
