"I declare," gasped Rlioda Fillcy,
I've
laughed until my sides ache!"
"You ought to bo an actress, Patty
Price," said Mary Ellis.
The. eirU utood around, in a little
group, laughing and applauding. It was
a dull, rainy day, and business was not
brisk at tho "Dry Goods and Fancy Em
poriuni" on the corner of Main struct and
Willow avenue.
JIaj. Carson bad just been in to look at
yellow silk pocket handkerchiefs a tall.

complexion that matched the pocket
bandkerchiefd and liad gono away,
leaving a curious old Madras 6ilk urn
brella with a hooked ivory handle, carved
in tho similitude of a stork a head, on
the counter.
And Martha Price, tho youngest, mer
riest and prettiest of all the 6liop maid
ens, had caught it up, twisted a yellow
bandanna around her neck, put ono of
the "newest styles" of gentlemen's felt
hats on tho side of her chestnut curl.
and was parading down tho middle of
the side aisle, with an excellent imitation
of the half halt that characterized Maj.
Carson a gait. Even Mr. Hoyt, tho dig
nified floor walker, looked on from a dis
tanco and smiled.
"That Patty ItJco Is a regular little
lump of withcraft," said le to Miss Daly,
tho cashier. "Just look at her, will you?
I'm told she Ucap'tal in private theatri
cals. And she U certainly very pretty."
"Yo-es." primly assented Miss Daly.
Sho liad nothing against Patty Price,
but it Is hard for a woman of 50, afflicted
with chronic neuralgia, to sympathize
heartily in tho praises of a woman thirty
veara her iimior.
Just ut the- moment when the laughter
wa3 loudest, tho 6toro door noiselessly
owned. Maj. Carson himself re-entered.
Did I leave my umbrella here?" ho
nsked, with a quiet glance which swept
the wliolj auditorium, and took n every
detail of tho scene. "Oh, yes, 1 see. A
thousand thankb!"
He lifted his hat with the quaint, old
fashioned bow, and left the store.
Patty Irice stood aghast, the felt hat
till topping her crop of curls, the yellow
pocket handkerchief yet displaying its
Hat bow under tho central dimple of her
chin.
The sudden laughter of her Audience
rras Jmslied. Mi:iS Daly uttered a littU
gasp of horror. Mr. Hoyt rapped sharpN
with hisknuckles on the nearest counter
top.
"Girls." said ho. "go back to your de
partments. This isn't business.
Tho knot of damsels dispersed at once,
but Patty lrice carried the heaviest heart
if all leneath the coquettish surplice
folds of her blue delaino frock.
"I oughtn't to have done it," she falt
ered, busying her hands among the rolls
of colored ribbon that the jwrter had just
brought uistairs. "I'rudence always told
me that my foolish, nighty ways would
bring roe into trouble. I'm qiute, quite
sure that ho saw me!"
"What if Ito did'" encouraged Rhoda
Filley. "lie can't have you arrested,
can he?"
"Oh, but he has been so good to us,"
lialf whinnied Patty, "lie left his
handsome suit of rooms at the hotel and
took board with mother just to help us
along; end sister Prudence 6ays ho is the
most perfect gentleman she ever knew.
Oh. I don't know how I shall ever look
liim in the face again!"
"Is ho an old leau of your mother?"
asked Khoda, Indifferently.
Pattv started.
"No!" she cried; "of course not! Why,
he's not 40 yet, for all he looks so old.
It's the East Indian climate has done
that. Prudence says she thinks he's
very handdomo and'
"Oh!" laughed IUuxla: "then it's sister
Prudence he s in love with'r"
"I wish you wouldn't 6ay 6uch dis
agreeable things," said Patty, frowning,
"ilush! don't you see there's a customer
coming?"
All day long Patty was in low spirits.
Sho went homo at night with a liead
nchc, taking care to be a little behind the
regular family tea time, so as not to see
JIaj. Carson.
Jf ho told mother," she pondered, "as
it would serve me entirely right for him
to do. v. hit will she say? Prudence, too
if Phoda Hpcaks truth, and she is re
ally in 1 ve with Maj. Carsou sho will
never for.pve me. And now I come to
think of it. Maj. Carson's profile is per

brella ns it leaned cgainst the rail of the
hat stand in the hall, where a single gas
let burned feebly ts the lantern over-
icad.
'Is it a good spirit, I wonder, she
asked herself, "or an evil one, that
Daphne Li afraid of?"
bhe took the umbrella in her hand and
looked wistfully at the carvings of the
stork's head.
"The Sacred Ibis, I suppose," she pon
dered. "And I vi is' 1 1 hadn't made fun
of it. Frudenco trill be so angry."
She was still looking intently at the
major's umbrella when the street door
opened and the major himself came in.
"I'm afraid," said he, "that I am a
little late for tea. Oh, you were looking
at my umbrella. Hiss ilaxtha. Well, I
grant you" (with a quiet smile) "it is
rather ridiculous: but it is a very old
friend of mine, and Tve a prejudice in
favor of old'frienda."
Tatty burst into tears; the umbrella
fell clank against the iron shell of the
hat rack, splitting the stork's head in
two.
"Please do forgive me, Maj. Carson!"
she sobbed. "I've behaved like a Pata
gonian Indian, and 1 don't dwserr that
you should erer vjpeak to me a3l Dot
I never will again and, oh, please, I've
broken it now I What will Prudence
say?" .
. "It don't matter," said the major,
quietly interrtosing to prevent her pick
ing up the ruins of the Sacred Ibis. ' Dut
what has Miss Prudence Price to do
with it.r
"I I don't know," murmured Patty.
"Sho says 1 have neither discretion nor
dignity, anil she is right."
"Now, Miss Martha, stop crying," 6aid
tho major, gently patting her baud. "If
you think that I bear you any malice on
account of this morning's innocent bit
of girlish masquerade, you are entirely
mistaken. It is quite natural that half
a dozen gay young things should make
fun of an old fogy like me."
"Put you are not an old fojjy!"
"At eight-and-thirty? No? Well, peo
ple differ on such subjects. And you
are not to torment yourselr about it any
more do you hear? Why do you look
so earnestly at me?" ho added.
The long, dark curtains of lashes fell
on Patty's crimson cheek once more.
"1 uon t know, she raltereu. "I was
thinking how good you are. Here comes
mother, and I know by the 6mell that
old Daphne has taken the tea biscuit
out of the oven. And oh, I am so sorry
about the umbrella!
The major picked up the umbrella,
snapped the 6lender standard in two,
and flung it composedly out of the hall
window.
"There!" said ho, "I won't have you
fretting yourself so ceaselessly about an
old umbrella!"
OKI Daphne, coming across tho hall
with tho coffee pot in her hand, stopped
short.
"Press an' sat) us!" cried 6ho, "if do
sjiell ain't done gone outen de house!
Well, it's a pow'f ul lucky t'ing for we
tins. I neber done feel easy while dat
ar ivas stan'in round."
"Martlia," said Mrs. Price to her
youngest daughter that evening while
careworn Iruuence was examining tlio
baker's book down in the kitchen. "Maj.
Carson has been speaking to me"
"I know," interrupted Patty, with a
little guilty start. "He's going away
the best boarder you ever liad and it's
all my fault."
"No, he's not going away. He"
"Then," cried Patty, "he's going to
marry Prudence! And she's a dear,
good girl as ever lived, mother, but
but do you think she id quite young
enough for f.h,e jnajor?"
"My dear child, if you would only
hear mo out. The major"
"Has got a wife already in India!"
burst out Patty "an olive skinned prin
cess, with a diamond as big as a hazel
nut in her tiara, and he wants to bring
her here! There are bpma rhrng9. J won't
stand, mother. The Emporium people
are going to establish a branch business
at Denver, and I'll go out there with
Miss Daly and the Wicklow girls. I
don't believe"
At that moment there was an outcry
in the kitchen. Master Alonzo Price,
the youngest hope of the family, had
just come in with a bloody nose from
smjrlo combat with somo
neighboring
youth. Mrs. Price graspod a camphor
hottlo and rushed to the rescue, and
Putty was left alone,
"I wish I wero dead!" sobbed she,
dropping her head on the cushioned arm
of the sofa. "It's all tho evil spell of
that horrid old umbrella!"
"Has your mother told you, Martha?"
asked a gentle, reassuring vofce pjosa io
her elbow.
And sho started, to behold the
subject of her thoughts.

"No yes" sho faltered,

"It ajj depends on you, Martha,
whether I go or stay, ho answered,-
gravely.
"Does it, really?" ner heavy eyes
brightened a little at tliis. "Then I will
try to bo good to her."
"To be good to whom?" paid the major,
with something of a puzzled expression
in his face.
"To the prin to the lady, J mean,
whom you are going to marry,
"1 shall marry no lady, little Martlia,
unless you will have me." said the ma
jor, resignedly, shrugging his shoulders,

"Yes," 6poke up Maj. Carson. "I
hardly dared plead my own causo
with you; but since Mrs. Price has not
delivered my message, I must even try
for myself. I suppose, dear, I seem very
grim and antiquated to you, but my

Saved by 111 Monkey.
An instance of the instinct and fidelity
of a young monkey comes from Batig-
uoLiCii, a suburb or 1 aria. A little bov (so

habitant of that part of the city, was
playing in one of the rooms of his fath

juvenile caprice, tied the cord of a win

to hang lumself, to the immense amuse
ment or his bimian playmate, which
grinned and chattered on a chair. Sud

around lus neck. In a very short Bpace

TRADING WITH JAPAN.
Bom Tlgarv Showing fl&w Much of It
Do Import and Kz porta.
Governor Hubbard tells mo that wo
buy more from Japan than any other
foreign nation. "Last year," slid he,
"our imports from this country
amounted to 21,000,000 Japanese dol
lars, or about 16,000,000 American dol
lars. We bought $11,000,000 worth of
her raw silk, and nearly $7,000,000
worth of her teas. The fair cheeks of
our ladies wero cooled last vear with
$37,000 worth of Japanese fans, and
our noses were wijhhI with $8 10,000
worth of Japanese silk handkerchiefs.
Wo buy nearly $300,000 worth of
Iorceluiii every year, and our imports
of bamboo ware amount to $102,000 of
Japanese money. We buy more than
twice as much off Japan as any other
country, and our imports are increas
ing every year. In 1887 we bought
$1,500,000 nioro goods than in 1880,
and the United States will probably
continue to be Japan's best customer.'
"What are the chief articles of ex-
rart from the United States to Japan?"
asked.
"Kerosene oil leads the list,' was
tho reply. "Half of the Japanese na
tion lights its houses with our coal oil
lamps, and we sold in 1880 over $2,
000,000 worth of coal oil to Japan.
There has been a falling off this year
in this, but the export is still large.
Then the American clock is popular in
Japan, and you may see thousands of
them in Tokio. The common office
clock, which hangs upon the wall, is
very popular, and one sale of clocks
here amount!" to 160,000 Japanese dol-,
lars a year. Many a Japanese baby is
now brought up on American con
densed milk, and $55,000 worth was
sold last year. We sell sole leather,
books, machinery and provisions, ana
Japan bought $94,000 worth of our
flour last year. Their figures are small,
but American foreign trade is in its
infancy, and it has a world yet to con
quer. Here in the east there are 600,
000,000 of people who require more or

American brains, push and capital can

Why should wo not sell to her?"
"I low much do wo sell?" I asked.

many pf th6 labor and capital troubles
of the United States. When the home
markets are glutted and factories
closed for want of demand, this for
eign trade could eat up some of the
surplus and keep the mills from rest
ing "Japan buys," Governor Hubbard
went on, "$51,000,000 worth of goods
a year from foreign nations. It sells
in round $52,000,000 worth of goods
abroad, and its imports are thus nearly
$1,000,000 less than its exports. The
needs of the nation will grow with the
new civilization, and an increased de
mand for our productions will be tho
result. Among the chief things it now
buys are steam engines, clocks,
watches, hats and caps, iron, steel,
window glass, sugar, woolen and cot
ton yarns. Its importations of cotton
yarns last year were $8,000,000, and it
bought $500,000 worth of wines. It
sells abroad about forty different arti
cles, and some of these will be new to
you. In camphor there is an export
of $1,000,000, and in cuttle fish a like
amount Japan sells $2,000,000 worth
of copper a year, and it has one of the
largest copper mines in the world. It
sells $1,000,000 worth of porcelain,
$1,000,000 worth of silk handkerchiefs,
and $7,000,000 worth of tea. We buy
nearly all of the Japan tea that goes
abroad. The sales of raw silk amount
to $19,000,000 a year, and of cocoons
to $200,000 a year. It sells $400,000
worth of mushrooms, and $2,000,000
worth of rice. The trade of the country
is susceptible of increase, and Japan is
by no means at the end of its material
development." Frank G. Carpenter's

One Cause of Bala Storms.
A correspondent of the Northwest
ern railroad advances a curious theory
for the increasing prevalence of floods
and rain storms. He says that there
are over 80,000 locomotives in use in
North America, and estimates that from
them alone over 53,000,000,000 cubic
yards of vapor are sent into the atmos
phere every week, to be returned in
tho form of rain, or over 7,000,000,000
cubic yards a day "quite enough,"
he says, "to produce a good rainfall"
every twenty-four hours. Estimating
tho number of other non-condensing
engines in use as eight times the num
ber of locomotives, the total
vapor
thus projected into the air every week
country amounts to 470,000,
000,000 cubic yards. "Is this not," he
asks, "sufficient for the floods of ter
ror? Is there any reason to wonder
why our storms are so damaging?"

Peru's Corse of Wealth.
It was the wealth of Peru and
Bolivia which was their curse from
the time of Pizarro to that of modern
Chili. Guano has been exported since
184b trom teru, and tno annual ship
ments are said to have amounted to
$20,000,000 and $30,000,000, whereas
the whole population of the country
was not greater than Pennsylvania.
The epidemic of riches broke both the
government and the people, and
brought in foreign enemies. How
much better are we off iu some parts
of this country with all our riches and
so little fortitude? The guano running
down, nitrate of soda was found in the
deserts, and Chili came in to get this,
and destroyed Peru.
It was discovered in 1833, in South
America, by an old Englishman
named George Smith. They say it
will take eight or ten centuries to dig
it away. Nobody knows how the ni
trate was formed under the sands of
this desert. Shoveling off the sand,
you come to a course of sun baked
clay, and under this is a bed of white
material, like melting marble, and soft
as cheese. It is about four or five feet
thick, and is broken up by crowbars
and ground. A solution from it is
run into vats of sea water, and crys
tallization is caused. The ultimate i-e-sult
is an iodine of commerce costing
as much per ounce as the saltpeter
brings per hundred weight. The high
est grade goes to the powder mills, tho
next to the chemical works, and the
third to the fertilizer factories. Cin

What Cigarettes Are Made of.
For some time past Tho Chicago
Journal and The Evening News have
been waging vigorous warfare against
cigarettes. The Journal has printed a
series of articles showing the large
number of cigarettes that were sold by
small shopkeepers to the public school
pupils, and has had interviews with
the principals of the various schoohi
and with physicians, showing the ex tent
and injury of the cigarette prac
tice among young boys. -The News
has been investigating the composi
tion and effect of cigarettes generally.
With this end in view a number of
packages of each brand commonly
used were purchased and stripped of
the boxes, cards and every distinguish
ing mark. Each kind was put into a
pasteboard box, the lid of which was
inscribed with a letter. These wero
taken for analysis to Professor Dela
fontaine, a well known chemist.
He found that the cigarettes he
tested were generally made of to
bacco ''imperfectly fermented," which
means that an unusually large amount
of nicotine was present in them. He
found that nearly all had an unnatural
proportion of insoluble ash, that sev
eral kinds were steeped in an injurious
substance, and were impregnated with
dirt in vary in r proportions. New
