THE OLD FRIENDS.
Tho old friends, tbo oM friend)
Wo loved when we were young,
With sunshine on their f u:es
A:.d mu«tc on their tongue!

The birds renew their stro n:
But the old friends, once lost to us.
Can never come again.
Tho old friends, the old friends I
Their brow Is lined with care;
They've furrows in the faded oheek
And silver in the hair;
But to me they are tho old friends still
In youth and bloom the sumo
As when we drove the flying ball
Or shouted In the game.

THE SfOLEN JEWELS.
‘•Why,” cried Eleanor Goode, “it’s
a perfect palace! I really had no
idea of grandeur like this.”
“Isn’t it?” echoed Miriam Kasson.
••I wish, dear, I could ask you to
stay and spend the day, but I dare
not; I’m too much of a stranger here
to take any liberties. ”
“Oh, I shouldn’t expect it!" said
Eleanor, looking around at the dec
orated ceilings, pale blue silk
draperies and lovely bits of land
scape on the walls. “I'know exactly
how you’re situated, Milly. But
can’t you come shopping with me?
Bob has given me a five-dollar bill to
buy a new gown with, and there are
some of the sweetest old-blue ging
hams at Tuck & Nipp’s. ”
Miss Kasson shook her head.
“Impossible!” said she. "You see
the family have gone to Barrington
to a funeral, and I am left in charge.
And you don’t know,” she added,
with a comical little pursing up of
the lips, “how afraid I am of Mrs.
Yerkes, the housekeeper, or how my
heart beats when I feel myself com
pelled to give an order to the butler. ”
“I wish I were you!” cried Eleanor.
“It would be such fun.”
“One hardly knows,” sighed
Miriam, whether one is a lady or a
servant!”
“Oh, there can't be much doubt of
that!" said Eleanor. “Look at your*
self in the mirror, dear. Wouldn’t
you say you beheld a princess in dis-*
guise?"
“Nonsense! But at least let me
get you a glass of cool water, Nell;
you look so flushed with your long
walk.”
She slipped away, while Eleanor
beguiled the time of her absence by
a lengthened survey of herself in the
mirror.
Yes, it was no unsatisfactory view
—a dimpled, rosy young Venus, with
sparkling hazel eyes, red lips and a
complexion of purest pink and white.
And then—Good gracious! one of the
ribbon loops of her airy summer
dress had come loose. She looked
frantically around for a pin to repair
damages, but no pin was to be seen.
“They’re in the bureau drawer,"
said she to herself. “Milly always
was too distressingly neat for any
thing. Oh, here they are!" grasping
at a paper of pins. “And here too—
oh, the delicious little glutton!—
here’s ft box of chocolate caramels,
tied with pink ribbon. I'll teach her
to hide her sweeties away from me!
How she will stare when she finds
them gone!”
It was the act of a moment to whisk
the bon-bon box into her little shop
ping-bag and appear deeply absorbed
in repairing the damages to her
wardrobe, when Miss Kasson came
in, bringing a glass of water and
some fancy crackers on a small
Japanese tray.
By the time she reached the fam
ous emporium of Messrs. Tuck &
Nipp, the “bargains" in old blue
ginghams were gone, and nothing
remained “fit to be seen” at any
price to which she could venture to
aspire, and so she betook herself sor
rowfully to the pretty flat which she
called home.
And none too soon, for a telegram
awaited her there, announcing that
her mother, in Orange county, was
very ill, and it was necessary for her
to go thither at once.
At the end of two weeks she
brought her mother home nearly re
covered.
Liitue saran, tne youngest sister,
received her joyfully.
••It’s been so lonesome without
you, Nell,” said she. “I’ve kept
house beautifully, only Biddy has
scorched the oatmeal every morning,
and the coffee hasn’t tasted just
right, and Bob has been so busy he
couldn’t find time to go walking with
me.”
“Busy!” satirically echoed Eleanor.
“Oh, but he really was! He’s got
a real case, Bob has, and it’s awful
interesting, too. The judge assigned
it to him because the defendant—I
think that’s the proper law phrase,”
with a pretty little wrinkling of the
eyebrows—“hadn’t any means to
provide one for herself. And she’s
ever so pretty. Bob says, and he’s
quite sure she isn’t guilty; and won’t
it be strange,” nestling her curly
head against her mother’s shoulder,
“if Bob should fall in love with his
first client?”
Eleanor looked distressed.
“Mother,” said she, “didn’t I tell
you what would come of your allowing
Sarah to read so many novels? In
love, indeed! Most likely the woman
is an adventuress. ”
“All the same,” persisted Sarah,
“Bob says it’s a very interesting case,
and it’s in all the papers headed, ‘The
Great Diamond Bobbery. ’ ”
“Well, I declare!” said Mrs. Goode,
who shared the romantic proclivities
of her young daughter. “A diamond
robbery and a beautiful girl! Of course
she didn’t do it.” j
“Oh,” cried Eleanor, impatiently,
stamping her foot, “how impractic
able you all are! Why shouldn’t she
be guilty? Can’t a pretty girl be
wicked as well as a plain one? As if
looks mattered! But all the same I’m
glad Bob has had a good opening in
the courts. And now, mamma, you
must have a cup of tea, and lie down
awhile before dinner. I’ll go out for
a little; I want to see a dear friend of
mine who must think I’m negleoting
her shockingly.”
And in the toft July sunset she
went to the big house on Fifty-seventh
street, and timidly pressing the elec
tric button, inquired for Miss Kasson.
The tall butler froze her with a
glance.
•Ain’t been ’ere for a long time,”
said he, and shut the door unceri
moniously in her faco.
And she returned home in great
amazement.
in her absence Mr. Robert Goode
had been “turning the place upside
down," as Tittle Sarah expressed it,
in search of a bag to carry his pa
pers in.
••The lock of mine is out of order,”
' said ho, “and I can’t get it back un
til Wednesday. Any one of your
bags will do. Nonsense! Do you
think I want a Saratoga trunk P” as
Sarah produced her mother’s travel
ing case. • *Or a doll-baby’s satchel P”
as she reached down her own from
the top shelf. “Is this all you have
got?’’
“There’s Nell’s shopping-bag,”
said the little girl. “It's littler than
mother's and bigger than mine.”
“Get it, then—quick! there’s a
dear little dot! Oh, don’t stop to
dust it!”
“But I must,” pleaded the house
wifely little thing. “It was on top
of the wardrobe where Nell put it be
fore she went to Orange county to
bring mother home. And it’s—awful
ly dusty! And I think there’s some
thing in it, too.”
••Pshaw!” said he impatiently. “A
box of candy.”
He tore the pink ribbon knot apart,
the lid dropped off, and little Sarah,
standing on tiptoe to look into the
bag. stepped back with a Shriek.
Something from the inside seemed to
flash up into their eyes like impris
oned fire.
At the same time Eleanor came
into the room, flinging1 her hat and
scarf wearily down.
••So,” cried Robert looking up with
a face which would have furnished a
study to any physiognomist, "you
are the one who stole the Grafton
diamonds!”
••IP The Grafton diamondsP What
do you mean. Bob? Have you gone
crazy P" gasped Eleanor. “What are
you doing in my room?”
••We found the diamonds here in a
box in your leather bag,” said her
brother. ‘ The diamond necklace
for the theft of which poor Miss Has
son is on trial!”
••Miss—Kasson. You never meant
that it is Miriam Kasson—my friend
Mir lam P”
••Didn’t I tell you so this very
day?” cried Goode.
••You never mentioned her name at
all. You kept saying my ‘olient’—
•the defendant.' But, oh, Bob, I
know it all now! I was there—at
the big house on Fifty-seventh street,
the day before I went to Orange
county for mother. 1 was in Miriam’s
room, and I opened her bureau
drawer to find a pin, and I thought
it would be a joke to take her box of
candy away. I never opened it I
never dreamed what was in it, and
when I got home and found the tele
gram from Aunt Laura, I first flung
the bag down and thought no more
of the whole thing. Oh, poor, poor
darling Milly! But how came the
diamonds in her possession?”
• ‘Don’t you knowP But how should
you?” said Mr. Goode. ‘‘The necklace
was put in her special charge to be
delivered to the jeweler who was to
call for it at 3 o'clock. And when he
came it "Whs gone. But it’s all right
now. Great Scott! Nell, who would
suppose that you were the thief!”
Eleanor made an hysteric'grasp at
her brother’s arm.
“Will they arrest me, Bob?” stam
mered she. “Will they put me In
prison? But I don’t care, so long as
Milly is no longer unjustly suspected.
Yes, I am a thief! But—but I didn’t
know it And I never meant it!”
And she burst into a storm of min
gled tears and laughter.
j.nere was a ratner unusual scene
in court that day when the necklace
itself was presented in evidence be
fore the legal luminaries.
The complaint was withdrawn and
the prisoner honorably discharged.
The composed and aristocratic Mrs.
General Grafton was greatly moved
and made many apologies to Miss
Kasson for the position she had
taken.
The newspaper reporters got a
great many “points” for the evening
editions, and Mr. Goode, the “rising
young lawyer,” left the court, with
Miss Kasson leaning on his arm, am id
a tempest of applause.
“Lucky dog, that!” said his com
peers. “After this his fortune is
made!”
“And all because of my foolish lit
tle practical joke,” said Eleanor.
“After this I shall never want to look
at a chocolate again. But, Milly,
darling, why didn’t you send to me in
your trouble?”
“Could I bear to have my dearest
friend know that I was suspected of
theft?” sighed Miriam. “And when
I knew the name of the coun
sel assigned to me by the court
my lips were more tightly sealed
than ever. Oh, Nell, he has been so
good—so noble! He has never doubted
me for a moment, even when appear
ances were most against me. No. I
will not go back to Mra Grafton’s,
although she has begged me to do
so.”
“You will come home with me.”
said Eleanor, caressingly. “Yes,
you must—you shall!”
“I will stay with you,” she said,
“until I get another situation.”
But she never took another situa
tion. Anyone could have guessed
the outcome of it all. Even little
Sarah guessed it, when she said:
“I do believe that our Bob has
fallen in love with Miss Kasson!”—

THE MENDACITY OP VANITY.
A Drummer Adopt* • Method to Bottle
o Disputed Poles. >
From the Washington Star: A Star
reporter was contending the point that
however vain a person might he, es
pecially a woman, her vanity was not
strong enough to destroy her sense
of truthfulness. The opposite side was
defended by a New York traveling
man, commonly known as a "drum*
mer,” and he was not only a stylish
fellow, but he had the nerve that Is
sometimes ascribed to that perlpatetlo
fraternity.
“Come with me," he said, “and I’ll
prove my point.”
It was about 11 o’clock In the morn
ing, and the conversation was occur
ring in an offlee on F street.
"How?” Inquired the reporter.
"I’ll show you how, it you’ll come
with me.”
The writer agreed to the proposition,
and the drummer escorted him to a dry
goods store where women congregate,
and led him inside. They moved about
the place for fifteen or twenty minutes,
the writer asking for an explanation
of the strange manoeuvres every time
he had a chance, and getting no satis
factory answers. Finally the drummer
overheard a lady tell a clerk she want
ed her packages sent down to the train
In time for her to get them there and
carry them home with her. The next
minute, as she turned away, he rushed
up to her with his hand extended, and
the lady shook hands with him.
"How do you do?” he said in the
friendliest way.
“How do you do?” she responded, but
with some doubt in her voice.
"I don’t believe you remember me,”
ne said in a hurt tone.
"Your face is quite familiar, but I
don’t quite place you."
"Don’t you remember,” he explained,
"that I met you at the German am
bassador’s not long ago, and also at the
dinner dance at the Brices, and again
at the Assembly?"
She hesitated a moment, looking him
over as she did so.
"Why, yes,” she said, smiling very
pleasantly. “I remember you quite well
now, but I wasn’t expecting to see you,
don’t you know, and didn’t recognize
you at first. You know how It Is in
Washington."
She smiled again and he smiled and
chatted with her a while, then they
parted, and the drummer came back to
the writer and took him out on the
street.
"Now, what do you think of It?" he
asked. ■»■■■*?:
* “Think of what?”
"Of my proof that I was on the right
side of that discussion."
“I don’t see any proof. You merely
met a lady whom you had met before
and recalled yourself to her. There
wasn’t any proof In that"
“Wasn't there?” and the drummer
laughed. “Think a minute. You know
I don’t know anybody In Washington
outside of three or four merchants I
sell to here, and them only In a busi
ness way. I never was at the German
ambassador’s In my life, nor any of
those other places I mentioned. I
have read of them In the newspapers,
that’s all. And the lady? Why she
doesn’t live In this town at all. Didn't
you hear her order her packages sent
to the train to meet her? I never saw
her before. Just the same when she
saw a well-dressed man identifying her
as a member of the fashionable set of
the capital, and knew the clerks and
other women were hearing It, too, she
let It go at that e-1 never said a word
to correct me. S’ never was at any of
those places any more than I was, but
she was too vain to deny it, even
though she had to lie to maintain her
position. See?"
, The writer saw very clearly, but he
never would have aeen if the proof had
not been presented In each unmistak
able form.
The Whet* Teaehleg el Lite
The whole teaching of hia life. In
deed, le to leave ua free and to make
ua reasonable, and the supreme lesson
of hie life is voluntary brotherhood,
fraternity. If you will do something
for another, If you will help him or
serve him, you will at once begin to
love him. I know there are some casu
ists who distinguish here, and say that
you may love such an one, and that, In
fact, you must love every one; but that
you are not expected to like every one.
This, however, seems to be a distinction
Without a difference. If you do not
like a person you do not love him,
and If you do not love him you loathe
him. The curious thing In doing kind
ness Is that it makes you love people
even in this sublimated sense of liking.
When you love another you have made
him your brother: and by the same
means you can be a brother to all men.

Celebrated a Death Senteaee.
Dr. Smolka, formerly president of the
lower house of the Austrian legislature,
'recently celebrated an unusual anni
versary—the "golden Jubilee” of his
sentence to death. The doctor was
found guilty of membership In a trea
sonable society and was first Imprisoned
for four years and then In 1845 was
sentenced to death. The general am
nesty came, however, before the sen
tence was executed and the enly thing
the doctor suffered was the loss of his
title, which prevented him from prac
ticing law.—Exchange.
Of Court* Thof Com
Bishop Butler, the author ot the
"Analogy,” walking in hip garden one
night with bis chaplain, asked
whether "public bodies might not go
mad as well as Individuals," adding
that "nothing else could account tor
most ot the transactions In history.”
"This Is very sudden,” replied Mr.
Huggins. "I thoroughly appreciate the
honor you center upon ms, but you will
give me a week to consider, I sup*
pose?”—Harper's Baser.
