beginning to feel more cheerful, when

"Oh' she said, as she shut the door
and sscodwKh her hands "behind hex

It is a "better and a poorer man, "
I said, resting my cue oa the Soon "Do

shook her head.
"7s o; I eonktn't say it to you."
It may have "been my fancy, but I

"But I piay very badly," said Miss

""Well, ihiswont bo-serisus, " I said,
selecting a right cue asd chalking

"Oh, aear!" raid Miss Anstruther,

bail went twice round the taMe and hit
nothing.
"How provoking!" she said.
Then, she lifted her chin ad rested it
on the tip of her cue.
" You know what I mess, " she said.
"'Why did you leave me alone ail the

"Tvefl," I said, "I was talking let

you, should I?"
"Bat you haven't toM me," I said
consolingly.
"Oh, but you can guess, " said Miss
Anstruther. shaking her head. "You
must have noticed something. And
Pve no right to say anything about it-"
I paused judicially.
"It seems," I said after an appropri
ata intervaL "quite a suitable arrange
ment. Mr. McDonald is very wealthy."
"Yes said Miss Anstruther reftect
ivelv, "he has money. But, then, so
have I."
"That is what makes it so suitable, "
I said
fBut," said Miss Anstruther, lifting
her evebrows pathetically, ''he's
well"
"That is true, " I said. But we aH
have our faults. And poverty's" the
wttrst of them."
"I gen's rWV so," said Miss An-
Struther quickly.
"Mrs. Anstruther think? so," I re
plied. "Yes, of course, you could see mam

"If I really cared for some-one else,"
said Miss Anstruther, very softly.
"Ah there's some one else?"
Hq; Anstruther nodded.
"v7ho doesn't care for you?"
"Oh, yes, he does," said Miss An
struther quickly, raising her eyes for a
moment to mine, and then dropping
them ngnTK.
I was just addressing my mind to thi
fresh complication, when "ivrfc An
struther jumped up.
"Oh, but we are not playing," she
said. "It's my turn, isn't it?"
"It is," I said, with a sigh, for I
should have preferred to fellow out the
subject- "But, excuse me, you won't do
it that way, and if you hold your cue
like that you'll dig a hole in the clefch. "
I went round the table to where Miss
Anstruther was standing.
' 'Keep quite still and I'll show you, "
I said I placed her hand in the right
position at the butt end of the cue, and,
holding it there, showed her how to
make a peeper bridge with the left hand
and slide the cue smoofcbiy and horizon
tally over it.
"How, " I said, sfcQl retaining a guid

Miss AHfitruther made her stroke. It
was a ridiculous stroke.

"I think," said she, turning and fac

Misa Anstrather was strangely agi

Isaid:
"Tell me, what are yeu going to sav

We were, as I have said, of necessity
very close together, and Miss Anstruther
dropped her eyes,
"I am going to Sell ism, " she said,
"that I don't care far Tfw not is that

"And that's what you meant when

Women's Talent Tar SnTing.
If anything conclusive could be in
ferred from experience, without psycho
logical analysis, it would be that the
things which women are not allowed to
do are the very ones for which they are
peculiarly qualified; sinee their vocation
for govemmeat has made its way, and
become conspicuous, through, the very
few opportunities which have been
given; while in the lines of distinction
which apparently were freely open to
them they have by no means so eminent
ly distinguished themselves. We know
how small a number of reigning queens

Tisht Sleeves.
The latest development of French
fashion shows a tight sleeve banded
with straps cf embroidery insertion, or
narrow,, rich gimp, revealing the nrm
to nearly the entire length of it. At the
top of the sleeve is a double puff set in
at the armhole. It is not a large full
puff, and frequently it is looped up at
the shoulder point to show the whole
arm. The sleeve may be puffed, but still
the arm is in fufl evidence. At the
wrist the fashion to extend the sleeve so
that it partly covers the hand still finds
favor. On the upper port it is elongated
in a leaf point, the sleeves being cut
away on the underside- Another style
is to cut the sleeve very long, and then
divide the wrist portion into square
tabs, finishing these underside with a
frill of plaited or gathered lace. 25ew

NEW MERRY GO ROUND.

233. ITar Xoun-j. People.
Anew kind of merry go round has
just been -nut up in Paris. It has sails
just like a small yacht. The idea, of
is a simple one a big beam, with
pivot in the middle, is fitted at each end
with niiniaturo fciocp rigging, which,
as you know, consists of a mninsafT and
jib-
Seats to carry one or more riders are
slung under each, of the big beams. TTtp
curious men v go- round has automatic
brakes, and it can be made to go around
fast or slow, no matter how strong the
wind that is blowing. On a breezy day
mis ooxl lano, coat kittis arouna in a
way to make you dizzy just to look at it.
Each set of the sails is put up in such
a manner that they "tack," or change
around, all by themselves, so that those
who are cn the merry go round do not
have to bother about "trimming' the
canvas of their craft to suit the breeze.
At the same time there are ropes by
which, one can handle the big sails, just
as in a real yacht. The novelty of this
airship for that's what it really is
delights crowds of young Parisians ev
ery day, and it is more than likely that
one of these sailing merry go rounds
will be put into place down at Coney
Island this summer.

mother-in-law. She was gifted, had
many viraiies and a few oddities. She
had a passion for cold air. In 1S50, not
very long after my marriage, she hon

one unlucky winter afternoon, on re
turning from the admiralty, I found my
home desolate cold, empty and com
fortless. The drawing roam was nearly
pitch, dark and very cheerless, for the
fire had been allowed to go out, and
though, the curtains were drawn a win
dow was wide open. AH thig depressed
me and constrained me to heave a
wholly languid and only half audible
malediction. I had an unHghted flat
candlestick in my hand, my first act
was to drop our the candle. This pro
duced another, a more audible, impreca

an oath, as round as possible.
However, having picked up and re
placed the candle, I continued to grapo
my way to the writing table for a
match, but in doing so I stumbled bad
ly over an abominable foot stool and
dropped candlestick, candle nnd extin
guisher with a clatter on the carpet.
This corapletelv demoralized me. I
broke into a storm of execration, lone,
deep and prolonged, but not launched at
anything in particular. I again essayed
to find the table, but stretching forth

Azores in 1591 4iwere the first who
had smoked cr (as they called it) drunk
tobaeco publiekly in London, and that
the Loudoners flocked from ail parse ta
see them. Pipes were not then invest
ed, so they used the twisted leaves, or
cigars. The invention is usually as
cribed to Sir Walter Raleigh. It may be
so, but he was too good & courtier to
smoke in public, especially in the reign
g James." Again, in the 1658 transla
tion of Dr. Everard's "Panacea" (Ant
werp, 25ST) it is remarked that "Cap
tain Richard Greenfield and Sir Francis
Drake were the first planters of is here
(England; and not Sir Walter Raleigh,
w.bieh is the common error, so dimcuk
is it to fix pepfshtr discoveries. ' ' These

A Woman's Invention.
Mrs. T. H. Holmes of 2?ew Orleans
recently invenwd and patented a con
trivance to elean cisterns and keep them
clean. The invention is another evidence
of the genius of southern women in con
triving successful mechanisms foe she
aid of the housekeeper. As 2iew Orleans
households are dependent upon cisterns
'cr their water supply, nothing ie more
important from a sanitary sSaaogioiBS
than that cisterns should be kept clean.
Mrs. Holmes' invention, which, has
been examined by experts, accomplishes
Mrs. Laura E. Mhris. of Sniithville.Ga.,
says: A small pnnpie cx a strawberry
color appeared on my cheek; it soon
began to grow rapidly, notwithstand
ing ail errorts to cnecg it. iy
eye became tembiy
inflamed, and was so
s -voilen that for quite
a while I could not
see. The doctors
said I had Cancer or
the most ntartgnant
type, and after ex
hausting their eSorto
without dcing- me
any srood, tfaev gave
up the case as hopeless. When in
formed that nrr rather nad died from
the same disease, they said I must die,
as hereditary Cancer was incurable.
"At this crisis, I was adnsed to trv
S.SJ5., and ia a short while the. Cancer
began to discharge and continued to do
so for three months, then it began to !
neal. I continued the meaicme a while !
onger until the Cancer disappeared en- I
tirely. This was several years ago and i
there has been no return of toe disease." .
