HIS LAST CIGAK.
"Hullo ! Jack , old boy , when did
you come ? " and I rose from my
chair by the desk to grasp the hand
of Jack Marshall , who had most un
expectedly walked into my office one
gray afternoon in November.
"Last night. Came in on the mid
night train. We were several hours
late , and you may guess I wasn't
sorry when we struck this old town , "
answered Jack , as ho returned my
welcoming hand-shake with one of his
own large-hearted grips.
"I am right glad to see yon ; but
what brings you back to our neck of
the woods just at this time ? " J asked ,
while I offered him a chair , which he
drew up beside the grate. "Business
or pleasure or both ? " And having
seated myself opposite him I leaned
forward and punched the fire to get up
a more cheerful blaze.
' That's it , Ned ; you've struck it ex
actly. It's both , " answered -lack , as
lie settled down in his chair and clasp
ed his hands back of his .shapely
1 head.
The day was a chilly one , and best
to bu enjoyed in a nook by the ingle-
side. 1 minht have busied myself
about a number of small matters with
profit , but it was all business that
would keep , and I didn't get a chance
to have a chat with Jack every day.
For years we had been the most de
voted and confidential of friends , as
loyal as Damon and Pythias , and up
i to this time neither had shared the
affections of the other with a rival of
either sex.
We had never been separated for
any great length of time till three
years before , when Jack , havinggrown
impatient and restless , determined to
\ . ' lit-1 41111.1 CITC1V U1O 1U1 l/UIIL . ,111(1 , pos
sibly , if he liked it , to stay and " row
up with the country. "
lie had grown very eloquent in his
efforts to induce me to accompany
him. and for a time I had quite a no
tion of yielding to his importunities.
Hut the knowledge of how great a sac-
.rilice it would be to the little mother
.to leave the home and friends so dear
to her had finally prevailed , and I
staid behind to pound hiw-books on
my native heath , and to forget , as
best I could , the rose-colored dreams
that I had cherished of wealth and
fame coming to me as if by magic in
the new west.
I had already been to a great extent
rewarded for the sacrifice for sacri
fice it certainly was by a piece of
50od fortune , which bade fair to be of
vonsiderable financial benefit. I had
been taken into the firm by my fa
ther's old friend and partner , and I
will confess that I had been highly
gratified , not to say flattered , to be
thought worthy to step into my fa
ther's shoes. To my further ques
tioning asto what good fortune I
owed my present vibit with him Jark
replied in the rich , musical voice that
I loved so well to hear :
"You're lust right in guessing that I
came on business , and that there's a
deal of pleasure mixed up with the
Business. I've missed you more than
rou know , old fellow , and T should
nave been back here a good many
Limes in the last few years if money
grew on bus-lies , as it doesn't , even iii
the great west , though I've no reason
to complain. I've done even better
: han I-expected. but until quite re
cently 1 have all the time had a vague
notion that sometime I should be
: > ack here again. To stay , I mean.
I've nothing to keep me here as you
nave , but it's the old homo , after "all ,
and although father and mother are
gone and the boys scattered , I have a
oed many tender thoughts about old
Marshalltown when I am gone away.
But now my plans are more definite ,
and [ have come back to settle up my
affairs connected with the estate , and
then 1 shall have burned my bridges
Dehind me. "
-What does it all mean. Jack ? " I
gasped faintly , feeling intuitively that
there was .some revelation to be made
which would explain what had so
suddenly settled his plans. "You
ilon't mean to tell me that you are
2oing to be married ; " "
For a moment I felt an almost
feminine jealousy , and an insane
desire to throttle the girl who had
come between me and my best friend.
My worse fears were realized when he
answered ;
"Right again , Ed. Why , you're
really quite a mind-reader.
Ms there anything particularly
moon-struck in my apperance that
enables you to read my secrets ? " and
Jack took a squint at himself in the
> lass across the room.
D "Oh , no ; not at all , " I hastened to
assure him , feeling ashamed that I
had experienced any emotion but jcy
at the idea , when I saw how his face
lighted up at the mere mention of his
matrimonial prospects. "lint let's
nave it. For of course you have come

Soften a trifle toward the irl who had

chanced to nnd a roaa to Jackb
manly heart.
I hitched my chair near the fire ,
feeling an unmistakable interest in llitf
forthcoming love story , despite a
sharp twinge of jealousy which would
obtrude itbelf , struggle against it as
I might.
"Have a cigar , old'boy , " i said , as
beseemed about to begin.
"No , thank you Ned ; I don't
smoke , " returned Jack , with a smile ,
which immediately broke into a
laugh , as he saw the look of surprise ,
almost consternation , on my face.
"Don'tsmoke ! " I exclaimed. "Since
when , I should like to know ? If I
remember rightly you were 'the one
most fond of the weed when last we
met. 1 shouldn't have been at all
surprised if you had told me that you
smoked like chimney all the while by
this time , for i used to think you were
very fond of your cigar. "
"So I was. but I've sworn off , and
I'm not sorry for it , either thougli
when 1 see you looking down your
nose as though you'd 16stw your last
friend I could almost wish my resolu
tions were like Rip Van Winkle's , so I
needn't 'count this time. ' "
"Well , well , will wonders never
cease ? " T said , trying to cheer up a
trifle. "Going to jump the broom
stick , and have quit smoking. Jt' I
was a woman I'd faint. " Per
haps , " as suddenly a new thought
struck me , "your approaching nup
tials have something to tlo with this
new whim of yours , " I said , a little
spitefully , feeling that a great gulf had
come between Jack and I indeed ,
when we could not even have one of
the old time smokes together.
"You have guessed just right , for the
third time. "You are surely very
clever , and I'll bet a good hat that
you're a sharp lawyer. However , I
won't keep you in suspense any longer ,
for as Nan would say : 'I know you
are dying to know all about it. ' "
"Nan well , thename sounds rather
jolly. On the whole 1 believe I like it ,
and now for the love story.
/'All right , here goes , " said .Tack ,
tipping back in his chair ; "but don't
be disappointed if it isn't much like a
novel , for although I'm free to confess
that I'm head over ears in love , I sus
pect I'm not very good at romancing ,
after all , and you will bear with 3ne.
"To begin with , she isn't a beauty.
Never in my wildest moments have I
called her beautiful , though she is just
as far from being homely. The first
time I ever saw her was in no more
romantic a spot ; than a crowded street
car. It was toward the close of a
Saturday afternoon last June , when
the streets were full of busy people ,
hurrying , scurrying in all directions ,
walking or riding , as the case might
be. I had let several cars go by my
self before attempting to board one ,
tor they were crowded to their fullest
capacity , and I had rather walk any
time than hang on by my eyelids when
every seat is taken. For this reason
I could understand the situation per
fectly , when at one of the crossings , a
lady , after a moment's hesitation , sat
down in one of the seats usually re
served for smokers.
"I had just lighted one of my
choicest , and as I sat so far from her
as to feel sure that my smoking could
not possibly annoy her , and as she
was an entire stranger to merldid not
feel that I was guilty of an unpardon
able breach of etiquette , because 1 did
not see lit to cast my fragrant cigar
beneath the jugernautic wheels of the-
car. 1 smoked on for awhile , arid had
almost forgotten the little lady's ex
istence , when chancing to look up , I
caught her eye.
Of course , she looked away instantly ,
but not until I had seen an expression
of surprise and reproach in her honest
brown eyes which made me feel a trifle
uncomfortable. It didn't seem to me
that she was so particularly annoyed
at my smoking in her presence as she
was troubled that 1 was doing it at
all. I think I considered myself quite
an exemplary fellow before , but that
one look set me to thinking and won
dering.
"It is true I had often heard women
and worthy women they weretoo
rail about the 'vile , filthy habit , ' but
that always rouses my antagoniaii ; ,
and then I don't care. On the other
hand , I had heard ladies mincingly re
mark that they 'rather liked thesmell
of a good cigar. ' You know that
chestnut. But there was something
unlike very different from anything
like hai > h or unjust criticism in the
mild rebuke which I saw in her eyes as
she looked up. There was none of
that air about her as though she con
sidered a man who would smoke on a
par with a sot in the gutter. Only she
made you feel that she expected better
things of you , and was sorry to have
you disappoint her.
"However , I shifted my position a
little , and tried to feel indifferent ; but
somehow the cigar had lost considera
ble of its flavor , and though I still
continued to smoke , I could not for
get the look with which she had re-
carded me. She was a lady ; every
inch. It was evident in every detail
and in the refined ease of her manners.
You know , I'm something of a crank
in my ideas of a lady's dress. I al
ways was particular , and I've no
doubt it's the natural result of being
in the dry-goods business.
'
'Well'this little woman couldn't
have pleased me better if she had got
herself up purposely for my scrutiny ,
and I beg.ili to feel interested. I stole
a look now and then when I could dose
so unobserved , and theoftener I look
ed the more 1 felt thrit there was noth
ing about the choicest of tobacco
smoke in harmony with her. Not that
she seemed an ethereal creature one
' wise and for human
of the sort 'too good
man nature's daily food. ' Not at all.
She was only a nineteenth -century
girl who was going home from a shop
ping expedition ; but a perfect lady ,
and one whose high ideas and lofty
principles shone out in her frank ,
bright eyes.
"Well , I presume I've no need to tell
you that I watched to see in which
direction she went when she left the
carwhich she did only a few blocks be
fore I reached-my own destination. To
say that I was really smitten would not
be the truth. I don't think it entered
my head at nil that I might have fol-
lowed at a respectful distance nnd
found out where she lived , as they do
in the regulation love story. I 'pre
sume I didn't have the least'iden that
J should ever see her again , but I will
confess that 1 thought about her a
good many times during the next few
weeks , and though i didn't stop
smokingat this juncture , 1 never light
ed a cigar without feeling that she was
looking at me with reproachful eyes ,
and after I had lighted it I didn't altogether -
together enjoy it. (
"In all probability , 1 should have
forgotten all about it in a little while ,
however , had it not been for an in
vitation to a reception which I receiv
ed not long after my street-car ride. I
had no particular interest in the re (
ception except that the lady who gave
it Mrs. Wells is an old friend of
father's.and she has been very kind tome
'
me since I have been in the 'city. At
all events , I went and had the unique
pleasure of meeting the lady who had
so interested me. I had paused by
the library door for a short chat with
Harry Wells , who is a line young fel
low about my age. when , happening to
look up , saw the same pair of eyes re
garding me that had caused me so
much uneasiness on the car. They
were turned away as quickly as in the
former case , but I was not a little
pleased to see that she evidently rec
ognized me , and , better still , that
she seemed interested.
" 'Who is it , Harry ? ' I asked. 'I
mean the young lady who is talking
to your father ? '
" 'Oh , that's Miss Lawrence , ' said
Harry , 'a young lady from Chicago ,
who is spending the summer with her
aunt , Mrs. Briggs , one of mother's
friends' ; and apparently guessing my
desire to make her acquaintance , he
led the way across the room to where
Miss Lawrence stood. I shall not try
to tell you what was said , for I don'lb
suppose you would be interested. In
deed it was all quite common-place ,
but one thing struck me very favor
ably , charmed me , I had almost said.
"The reception was quite a grand
affair , and , as a matter of course , the
younger ladies were nearly all in full
dres = ! . You know that always makes
'
me tired , and so , perhaps'you can
imagine how pleased I was to notice
Miss Lawrence's dress. It was as
faultless as on the previous occasion
stylish , elegant , though not showy ,
and perfectly suitable. The dress it
self was cut quite low in the neck , but
it was worn over another waist of
some soft , lacy material , which was
gathered about her slender throat ,
and fastened with a small pearl brooch.
"Don't laugh , " as he saw my amazed
expression , "I told you I was a crank
about a lady's dress. I believe I could
give Worth a pointer occasionally.
"But to return to Annie Lawrence.
I won't prolong the agony by victim
izing you any further. I'll cut mystery
story short and tell you that it was
all up with me after that evening. I
never tried to smoke but once after
that , and then 'it was my last cigar. '
I shouldn't have had the face to have
ti
IJ LIU
my smoking days were over. And even
if her answer had not been what it
was , I had thought the matter over , so
I know I should never have smoked
again. No , sir ; I never would ask any
woman to marry me to reform 7ne. I
reformed before 1 asked her , and I'm
the- happiest man alive. "
Shall I tell you a secret ? Well , T
don't smoke either now. There was
nothing as romantic about it as there
was in Jack'sexperience. . It was
simply this , that after a time , in the
course of human events. I fell in love
myself , and the little-woman did not
"like the smell of a. good cigar/ ' Ac
cordingly I followed Jack's illustrious
example and swore off.
We are neither of us millionaires to
day because we have saved our cigar
money , but \ve are quite as well oft"
mentally , morally , physically , arid
financially though we were human
chimneys.
Business-like.
Editors , as every or.e knows , are
a very busy set , with no time to waste
upon long-winded callers or unneces
sary formalities. The Atlanta Con
stitution cites a typical illustration.
A Georgian editor , who is also a
real estate agent , a building and loan
association director , an attorney-at-
law , clerk of the Town Council a ml
pastor of the village church , was re
cently called upon to perform the
marriage ceremony. He was in a
great hurry : in fact , the couple
surprised him in the middle of a
heavy editorial on the tariff.
"Time is money. " " said he , without
looking up from hiswork. . "J > o you
want her ? ' '
The man said yes.
"And do you want him ? "
The girl stammered the affirmative.
"Man and wife. " cried the editor.
' One dollar. Bringmenload of wood
for it one-third pine , balance-oak. "
Hectic.
It was a cheap little dock , Avar-
ranted to run three years , but it
actually did keep on for six and then ,
one morning , suddenly refused to do
itsduty longer. Jt was woundshaken
and then given up in despair.
Another series of efforts disclosed
the fact that it would start for a mo-
men i. , and then stop.
"There ! " said grandma , in one of
its active intervals , "I think it's all
right now. "
' Oh. no indeed , " said Charles. "It
will scop in another minute. ' '
"I don't know about that. It's
ticking. "
"Yes , but you can tell by the sound
that something is the matter. This
isn't a good , healthy tick. It's only
a stor fo a hectic ! "

THEYOUROUK COUNTRY.
Description of the Domestic Life of
a Queer Poople.
Kich : tent has its spinning \vhrel nnd
its loom , a hole for working the pdl-
; ils of which is chit ; in the "round , nnd
nil the women of the tribe were en-
gn ed in making the fur-famed Knrn-
manian carpets. There is tin1 wooden
mortar for grinclinu the roast coll'ee
berries in , the decoroted wooden plat
ter in which they cool the same , the
wooden water jars made out of the
hollowed stems of pine trees. Every
thing almost they use is of wood , and
gayly decorated with rndo patterns ,
according to their fancy. When reap
ing , a Yonrouk uses wooden gloves to
protect his left hand from the sickle.
When tending his Hock , the Yourouk
shepherd has a long wooden flute , in
cased in .a carved wooden case made
of two bits of wood glued together
and strung with ribbons and colored
beads across his shoulder , looking for
all the world like the African assegai
or some other primitive weapon of
war. In it he always keeps a long
stick with goat's hair at one end to
clean it , and really the weird music
that lie produces with this instrument ,
known as the Nai , is very striking and
suitable to the surroundings.
In one corner of the tent are the bee
hives long trunks of trees hollowed
out and the ends stopped with dung
cakes. The bees travel with them ,
wherever they go , on llio backs of
camels , and their honey resembles
cakes of soap , for they boil it , wax
and all. before eating it. The Your-
ouks have not the remotest idea of
letters , and carry on their transac
tions with the outer world by means
of wooden tallies four-sided bits of
wood , sometimes gayly carved , some
times plain. Blackwood's Magazine.
An Ancient "Sell. "
Not many travelers visit Carrara ,
where the finest of marble is constant
ly being quarried , as it has been for so
many centuries , but , once there , much
may lie found in the way of legend and.
scenery to occupy the curious mind.
Innumerable stories float about the
place , says a writer in Cornhill , con
cerning the existence of hidden treas
ures.
Gold lias often been found in the
neighborhood of the town , and not
very loni ; auo a crock of gold coins was
unearthed beneath one of the streets
A most curious experience , however ,
ivas that of a quarryman who , in one
3f his rambles , stumbled upon an old ,
ieserted quarry , within which , hail-
juried in grass and brambles , lay an
? nornious block of heavy marble. On
examining it , he found a number 01
etters rudely cut , and half-hidden
.iiuler a crust of dirt. With some dif-
iculty he managed to spell out the
, vords , "Blessed is he who shall turn
ne over. "
The man nt once jumped at the con
tusion that he had stumbled upon
Mini f.lifi.t } iis ; f
was made , lie rushed home and col
lected some of his friends to aid him in
the recovery of the concealed gold.
After some very hard labor they suc
ceeded in turning the hoary giant over.
Another rude inscription met their
eager eyes.
"Thanks , my friends. I was weary
of reposing so long in one-positionl"
Gettysburg and Chickamauga the
Best Battles of the War.
The national instinct on this subject
is perfectly correct. It was at Gettys
burg and Chickamauga that our Amer
ican armies were at their best and did
their best. Never were they either
before or after those memorable en
gagements so stong , so well otlicered ,
so tierce , so determined to win , so re
solved not to yield. They were then ,
we repeat , at their best containing
none but seasoned troops , under vet
eran ofHcers , inured to Avar , both
armies confident of victory , and pretty
nearly , taking all things together , ,
equally matched. And no one can
read the story of those great battles
without being proud of his country
and his race , for never was there more
resolute and obstinate and uallant
lighting done , nor ever were severe
losses more unshrinkingly borne. Nor
can it truly be said of either of these
battles that the beaten army did not
fight as hard and as lent : as its more
successful antagonist. There is idory
enough for all. Hence it ish'ttingthat
both fields Gettysburg and Chicka
mauga should be dedicated to the
perpetual remembrance of the great
battles so worthily fought there.

No Doubt About the Quality of
American Soldiers.
Infantry , ot cour.-e , constitutes the
main body of all modern armies , and
by the quality of its infantry an army
must be judued. The capacity of Amer
icans to make excellent soldiers was
proved in the war beyond a question.
That hundreds of thousands of men.
most of them entirely unacqainted
with the elements even of diciplineand
drill , were transformed in s o brief a
period into officers and soldiers was
certainly one of the- wonders of our
time. But the material Avas in the
main of the best : the desire to master
the new trade well-nigh universal and
very strong ; and there were from the
beginning many opportunities 'or
practicing what had been learned.
The armies of ] S(52 ( were far and awn y ! i
superior to the levies of lNf l. The i
armies of ISGo were decidedly ' super- j I i
ior to those of 1802. But in'lsiiM it
is probable that the highest point of
efficiency was reached in both the Fed
eral and Confederate armies in the
East , and certainly in the Western
army of the Confederacy. Scribner.
The Secret of Wifely Success.
An Arab's recipe to make a happy
wife : "I advise all women to be as
slaves to their husbands if they would
have them their slaves. Pay great at
tention to his dinner and see that he
sleeps well , , because hunger produces
anger and want of sleep bad temper.
Be silent as to his -ecrets : be not mel
ancholy when he is gay , nor gay when
he is sad ; study his temperand he will
make thee happy and bless thee. "
