she nuked niixloua

three?"
Sho holds my fate
with my cup In her
fair handy.
I boo the Blow
juices of the Flori
da rune rising from
the moist earth un
der the. sun's com
pelling hiss. I henr a rustling among
tho yellow stalks of sorghum as the
wind waves their silken tassels. Vis
ions of blood red beets, dissolved In the
Ichor of their souls, visit me. Verily,
nil these are sugar. And yet- these
nro not all!
"Three." I make shift to reply, re
garding her gravely as she poises the
old Dutch sugar tongs tentatively over
my cup.
As she offers the Assnm-Pekoc In Its
Jeweled bauble of a chalice, a wave of
tho fragrant liquor overllows upon my
wrist.
"Oh, I have hurt you!" she cries.
"Irremediably," 1 icply. The word,
is I utter It, staggers with significance.
Sho lifts her eyes, under puzzled brows,
to mine.
"Surely," she hazards, softly, "the
pain will soon be gone?"
"It 1b undying." I aver solemnly,
"and yet," I add. "I ehcilsh It."
"Then I may give you another brim
ming cup, since you woo pain?"
Alas, might she not have said more
truly, "Since you woo painfully."
"No, I will have no more tea."
"I may glvo you coffee, then?"
"Nor coffee."
"Chocolate?" Her hnnd rests upon
the fantastic lid of the silver box which
contains the perfumed powder. Sho
has lifted the carved handle of un apos
tle spoon to her lips. At the sight my
passion breaks Its bounds. I bend over
her until my breath stirs the lock of
hair In Its warm resting place on the
nape of her white neck.
"Would you caress a dead apostlo
with n living disciple so near?" I whis
per. Her answer comes so low that I am
fain to ask for It again, and yet again.
Ttie apostle hears It, and laughs in his
long beard.
For has not he, too, been kissed?

A shadow from the old church tower
falls upon two figures, the shadow of a
cross.
Within their walled garden mission
priests chant midnight prayers for
souls In purgatory.
Betty's black eyes burn, her breath
comes fast; she Is young and bold.
As she leans ngnlnst n slender Cot
tonwood, the south wind whispers to Its
heart-shaped leaves, and the girl thrills
with the tree's tremulous reply.
Or do her pulses mnrch with her
lover's at the touch of his arm against
her sleeve?
"Hetty?"
The man stoops to the black eyes, out
of which there leaps a sudden firo
nearer to the red lips, ripe as tho bios
pom of a cactus. From a clump of high
sage, ghostly gray even In the splendor
of the night's high noon, the soul of
tho hour speaks In an owl's cry, once,
twice, three times, the thick, soft, echo
less notes robbing it, in a breath, of all
Its safety and sweetness.
"They passed mo In the canon. I
crouclied behind a bowlder and heard
them curse each other for having lost
my trail."
The man shakes his shoulders at tho
recollection. In the luminous haze
which has overspread the sky, tho scar

changes oddly to the likeness of a gap

"How may my house serve mo?"
"With a sight of Its fair mistress."
"I hear a step upon the stair. Tho

The old serving woman turns away,

I turn and see a slender figure In vio

Above the low fair brow riotous locks
make sunshine In curling tendrils, but
whether the eyes beneath arc violet

To euro tobacco so as to develop its
fragrant flavor Is no difficult matter.
The leaf is carefully cut from tho Btem
as soon ns It begins to turn yellow,
which indicates ripeness. The leaves
must bo cnrefully handled, and not
bruised. They are strung by tho stems
on stiff wires, twelve or ho on each, nnd
hung up In nn airy place, not too dry;
nn upper room Is a good placo for them,
or an open atttlc. Thero they dry
slowly and fully ripen. Thoy may stay
In this way until a damp day, when they
may bo handled without breaking.
They aro tied in bunches of twelve by
tho Btnlks and slightly spread by twist
ing a strip of a leaf around these
hunches, which aro called hands. As
the bunds am tied they nre laid to?
g'othor, the tips lapping nnd the butts
ouHln a square heap on which n piece
n&-'boa'rd, for a smnll quantity, Is
placed, and a weight is put on tho
board. They stuy In this way for sov
oral weeks, warming up to some ex
tent, and this fermentation Is necessary
to complete the ripening and to develop
the frngrnure and flavor. After again
lAlngdrled byiianglng a few days'or hef
Ing.Hprcadjrto check tho fermentation,
tjio'thnndu aro packed In tight boxeb
where' thoy linnlly cure and became
marketable or usable. Nothing more' is
needed for use, But it Is a common
pKctlco for home use to dip tho leaves
in sweet water ordiluted molasses, nnd
twist them Into a sort of short ropes,
doubling them and thus making what
Is commonly called pig tall. This may
be used In this condition for smoking
or chewing. Plug tobacco Is mudo by
laying tho leaves, stripped from tho
stemB and dipped in sweetened water,
Into suitable moulds and pressing thorn
under a heavy press worked by a screw,
until, thoy become solid cakes. Various
flavoring stuffs are used by the manu

which this prize was secured was char
acteristic of Thiers. Ho wrote one es

but for the fact that It was known to
bo his. The essays were sent anony
mously, but Thiers bad been unable to
refrain from reading his to a literary
society. The royalists on the commit

willing to grant It tho prize and post
poned tho decision. Thiers nt onco
wrote another In n different style,
which Mlgnet copied and sent anony

tho whole town laughed at the clever
scheme The money which he lccelved
enabled him to go to Paris. He had
hoped to practice law, but found he
had not money enough to be admitted
to tho Paris bar. He tried unsuccess

ties of 11 private iccretary, but earned
baiely enough to keep from starving In
his garret. Finally he got a chance to
write for the C'onstltutlonncl. The
editor, to whom he hud an Introdiic
Hon, had thought to get rid of him by
asking him to write a review of tho
salon for that year, lie supposed that
Thiers must fall In such a task. The
artistic taste which had been developed
at Alx made his review n literary event.

The first revolution In tho season's
wheel of fashion hn come like a thief
In the nlcht In dtsturh the tieaio of the
! last days of a restful summer, which
brought no thought of how to fashion
1 our garments, no tiresome visits to the
dressmaker's Now the dainty summer

"What shall I wear?" Is the question
thai confronts every unman tho mo
ment she arrives In town, and the sum
mer vncatlon rapidly becomes an Indis
tinct memory (if relief, comfort and un
appreciated Joy as the trying problem
asserts Itself and the work of refur
nishing her entire wiudrobe goes 011.
The most definite mode which meets
her eye Just at the moment Ih the
bloiiso In every possible variation of
fulness and decoration which fashion
can dovlse. To be sure. It Is not alto
gether new, for It was tentatively In
troduced In tho spring, when It was
well received, but It Is here now with
emphatic declaration, mid a btouse of
some sort seems to be a fashionable
necessity for all the women who 111
slender enough to wear It with grace.
Stout women nre advised by one nu
thorlly on fashion "to avoid it as they
would the pluguo;" but a Blight
pouched effect In the front of n bodice
Is often becoming to generously pro
poit loued figures.
The latest winter blouse has it basque
formed of either squnrc tabs or a scant
frill, tho former being the favorite mo
del, as It adds less to tho size of the
hips. The effect of a long waist Is
essential to the good stylo of n blouse,
and the narrow Jeweled belt Is an
other Important feature. But this Is
rather expensive, and a very satisfac
tory belt can bo made of black satin
vlbhon wide enough to wrinkle n little
on a white or colored satin lining, and
fastened with nn oval cut-steel buckle.
Tho Russian bloiiso Is properly ft
street gnrment, worn over n fancy ho
dlru of silk or lace, nnd fastens up tho
front or not. as you choose, being some
times turned bnek two Inches on cither
sldo to show a pretty colored satlii
lining or velvet facing. It Is decoratell
elaborately with braid and bended trim
mings and edged with handsome fur,
and Is altogether charming on the right
woman. If you urn very slight, the
bloiiso Is cut loose, to fnll n little ovei
