Some men we see fly up’ardB, On the wings of fortune mountin, J While Providence keeps others. Better far, forever standin In tho midst of tribulation. On the lowcs' earthly landlD In a way that, think our best, Roaches over all accountin. Ev’ry day wo meet with Dives, Full o’ wickedness an might, Oppressin some poor Lazarus At mornin, noon an night. Yet he’s clad In gorgeous purple An tho fines’ kind o* linen, While his ears he closes tight To the beggar’s piteous plcadin. An keeps addin to his treasure, So mighty an exceed in. Till it seems as if his power Had no endin or beginnin. An if t his world we’re placed in Was the final en of livin. An after death to mortals No fulur’ state was given. We’d be right in thinkin Providence Hail missed its calculations. But w’en we rer-'**1-'*’ that some day There’ll bo a changin places Wo jes* keep right on pullin steady In contentment’s easy traces, Fcelin sure that at tho endin She’ll even up the rations. —Chicago Record. SABINA WILKINS. Miss Sabina had finished her morning duties, had dressed tho butter, swept the back porch and turned the broom up in the corner, as neat housekeepers do, had gathered flowers and seed and eggs and now seated herself by the window to crochet. But the fingers moved laggardly. She was clean sickened out of fancy work, of nursing the sick, sitting up with other people’s children, going to funerals and to church picnics to see young people in love enjoying themselves. She was tired, top, of being asked why she didn’t get married. She had been literally joked to death on the subject. But to look in the little room where Miss Sabina sat one would think she might be tolerably happy. Old Puss purred kindly at her feet, ready to fol low every step. On the mantel stood vases of gay flowers, and between them an old clock, ticking and striking tho hours softly, out of respect, it may he supposed, to the sensitiveness of Miss Sabina, who fain would linger awhile longer at the rosy gate to the temple of time. On a table lay the family Bible, in which, however, was recorded one date that saddened Miss Sabina—-her age. Near by hung a birdcage whose occu pant, with head askew, perceived his owner’s melancholy and forthwith began to sing. Between the windows stood an old fashioned bureau, whose mirror kept Miss Sabina informed of all the changes in her face, which she prayed Father Time to touch gently, as it might yet be her fortune. Feeling lonelier than ever before in her life, she looked about her, sat for some moments in deep meditation and then exclaimed: “Is this all there is in the world for me?’’ Here was the key to her discontent. Miss Sabina was right pretty, hadn’t a sharp tongne nor a long neck and was well off. Now, why did she have to live alone? God’s original • plan must cer tainly have included her happiness. Why not? What could Providence possibly have against her? She had never harmed anybody and never talked spitefully of men—a remarkable thing in a single wo man of 40. When Miss Sabina contem plated the shrews, the redheads, the femi nine scarecrows, that were flourishing like green bay trees with husbands, and with children to spare, she just settled it that there was a hitch somewhere— something out of gear in the world’s marriage machinery—and it never oc curred to her that it is always darkest before day. as Miss baoina sat musing on me and its inequalities she heard the sharp whis tle of a train which passed right in front of her house. Something must have hap pened. The whistle did not usually sound so far from the station. Looking out, Miss Sabina saw the train at a standstill, men running back on the track and passengers looking excitedly from the car windows. Seizing her sun bonnet, she dashed down the yard to find out what had happened. Four men were approaching, bearing gently a gen tleman who had been hurt. Attempting to walk from one car to another, he had made a misstep, lost his balance and fallen. The result was a badly muti lated foot. Miss Sabina’s house being the nearest one in sight, he was taken to it, a surgeon summoned from town and the train moved on. Amputation was at once pronounced necessary, and David Ware would not preach the next Sunday in the city to which he had accepted a call. He lay moaning on a cot in Miss Sabina’s neat little pirlor. She never had anything iu touch her feelings quite so much in her life as his sufferings and his big brown eyes, which she caught sight of now and then through the door. David Ware’s foot was taken off, and a trained nurse employed to attend him. Miss Sabina had nothing to do in the case hut to fur nish fresh flowers and dainty edibles to David. Slie was relieved of much em barrassment when she heard that it was a minister tinder her roof. People wouldn’t be so apt to joke about a man being in a house that never had such a thing before. As David, in his pain, saw the little woman moving through the hall and heard her giving orders for his comfort, he thought of the cloud with silver lin ing about which he had so often preach ed. A realistic vision was passing be 'fore him. The third day that he lay in the little parlor, the nurse left him while he was sleeping and engaged Miss Sabina in conversation on the porch. It was now she learned that David was an un married man. After that the flowers were arranged with greater care, the chicken wasibroiled more daintily, and the bisenit took on a more delicate brown. Woman’s wiles often hide un der just such covers. David, when he was not sleeping, spent i most of his time watching the door. Sabina, when she was not cooking or making bouquets, spent most of her time gliding stealthily by the door, for of course she was too modest and prop er to enter it except occasionally with neighbors who called upon the unfor tunate minister. Mrs. Tabitlia Topp, n neighbor and a great believer in tho law of compensa tion, made Sabina blush herself nearly to death by saying: “Well, Sabina, the Lord tool: the minister’s foot, hut he’ll bo sure togive him something in place of it. You’vo been good enough to let him havo the little parlor you don't oven open for most folks, and maybe you’ll get your pay in some manner you’re not expecting.” Sabina pretended not to be thinking about pay, but she was already thinking about possibilities. Well, there’s no situation in life but changes sooner or later. David Ware, minister, could not lie forever in that little parlor being waited on, and Sabina Wilkins could not go on forever broiling chickens and arranging sweet flowers for a strange man. David was at last able to limp out to tho porch, where he caught Miss Sabina sitting under the vines. Tho nurse was down in the village; Rex was asleep on the doormat. Sabina blushed like a girl of 18 and was afraid to sit with the minis ter for fear a neighbor might come and catch her. She was afraid to get up and leave for fear she would be losing an opportunity, and a woman at 40 can’t afford to be reckless. David rocked; Sabina rocked. Then he said, “Pleasant evening. Miss Wil kins.” “Yes, very,” she answered. David rocked; Sabina rocked. Then he said: “Sweet little home for you here, Miss Wilkins. Suppose you never get lonely, do you?” xe3, very, sue answered mm. It announced to him that here was a ten der, loving woman robbed by some bro ken law of the love and sympathy to which she was entitled. Modest and re fined as David was, he was suddenly moved to an outburst of admiration that filled the very air about Sabina with music and light and fragrance. “Miss Sabina,” he said, “I think you're the sweetest woman I ever saw. Why don’t you get married?” Poor little Sabina felt for her salts bot tle. She had never been attacked that way about marrying! And she never dreamed that love and courtship could be condensed or reduced to one sentence. Recovering herself, after a prolonged quiver of joyous surprise, she came back at David facetiously: “Mr. Ware, I think you are the nicest man I ever saw. Why don’t you get married?” “Because I can’t find a woman with my name in her hand, Miss Sabina.” “Oh, my! What do you mean, Mr. Ware?” “Don’t you know, Miss Sabina, some palmistry philosophers claim that every woman’s hand has a man’s initial in it?” “Do tell!” gasped Sabina, with eyes aflare and palms instantly upturned, while blushes chased with burning hope over her cheeks and throat. “Would you mind my looking at your hand, Miss Sabina?” David asked, construing favorably her excitement. Sabina ex tended her hand. David examined it closely, looked up into her eyes, then spelled slowly, “W-a-r-e! There it is!” Sabina gasped, held her salts bottle to her nose, having jerked her hand from him with a coquettish way that said, “Take it again.” “You mustn’t fly in the face of Providence, Sabina. Be ware!” A pun and proposal in one word. Seeing that Sabina was unspeak ably happy, David continued: “Only as my wife, Sabina, can I repay your kind ness. You and I are a pair of scissors, divided and lonely. Come, let us unite and after this ‘cut the fabric of life to gether.’” Sabina’s head drooped, Rex barked, and the minister and maiden kissed.— Cincinnati Post. Tattooing. That the old world custom of tattooing heraldic and other designs upon the arms, back and chest of men is coming into fashion here is shown by the pres ence in the daily papers of advertise ments offering to tattoo crests, coats of arms, monograms, etc., at the client’s residence for the moderate sum of from $5 to $10. There are a large number of royal and imperial personages in Europe who are tattooed, the Princess Walde mar of Denmark having an anchor tat tooed on her shoulder as emblematic of her husband's seafaring profession, while several well known Parisiennes have their fair shoulders adorned with flowers-de-luce in token of their mon archial preferences. Grand Duke Alexis, the czar’s brother, has his entire right arm tattooed from wrist to shoulder, while the wrist of King Oscar of Sweden is not free from decorations of this character. The reign ing Duke of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha has his left arm tattooed, as has also his nephew, Prince Henry of Prussia, while the Duke of York has the union jack and St. George's ensign indelibly marked on his forearm. —Vogue.

The first steamboat vras built by Den nis Papin, who navigated it safely down the Fulda as long ago as 1707. Unfor tunately this pioneer craft was destroyed by jealous sailors, and even tl*> very memory of it was lost for three-quarters of a century. In 1775 Perrier, another Frenchman, built an experimental steam vessel at Paris. Eight years later, in 1783, Jouffroy took up the idea that had been evolved by Papin and Perrier and bnilt a steamer, which did good service for some time on the Saoue. The first American to attempt to ap ply steam to navigation was John Fitch, a Connecticut mechanic, who made his initial experiments in the year 1785. To what extent Fitch was indebted to the three illustrious French inventors named above we are not informed, but that his models were original there is not the least doubt. In the first he em ployed a large pipe kettle for generating the steam, the motive power being side paddles worked after the fashion of oarB on a common rowboat. In the second Fitch craft the same mode of propulsion was adopted with the exception that the paddles were made to imitate a revolv ing wheel and were fixed to the stern— clearly foreshadowing the present stern wheeler. This last mentioned boat was tbe first American steam vessel that can be pro nounced a success. It made its first trip to Burlington in July, 1788. But, after all, it was not until after the opening of the present century that steam naviga tion started into actual life. In 1807 Robert Fulton (who every school child knows was an American), in conjunction with one Robert R. Livingston, built the Clermont, and established a regular packet service between New York and Albany. The success of this undertaking was so satisfactory that four new boats were built before the end of 1811, at least two of them being designed for service in oth er rivers.—St. Louis Republic. The Man In the Iron Mask. A letter to Louvois by Louis XIV, written in cipner, has been long in the archives of the ministry of war and has at length been deciphered. In it the king orders Louvois to arrest General de Burlonde for having raised the siege of Conti without permission, to send him to Pignerol and to conceal his features under a loup, or black velvet mask. The order was executed, and the presumption is therefore violent that the “Man In the Iron Mask”—it was a black velvet one with iron springs—was Gen eral de Burlonde. The story tallies with the known fact that the prisoner made repeated attempts to communicate his name to soldiers; that he was treated with respect by his military jailers, and that Louis XV, who knew the truth of the whole affair, declared it to be a mat ter of no importance. The difficulty is to discover the king’s motive for such a precaution, but he may have feared dis content among his great officers or the soldiery. It must, however, be possible to discover from the lists in the war office whether General de Burlonde was recorded as “missing” or “dead” about the right time.—Saturday Review. > - Tricks In All Trades. The young doctor was sitting in his consultation room chatting with a friend when some one entered the outer office. He stepped out, and the friend heard him say: “Pray take a seat. I’ll be at liberty in a few minutes.” Then he came back into the consulta tion room and closed the door after him. “I’ll skip,” said the friend. “Not for the world. Sit down,” said the doctor. “But you have a patient waiting.” “Well, it’s a woman. Let her wait about 15 minutes.” “You may lose her business.” “On the contrary, I’ll get it regularly. I always make them wait.” “Why?” “To give the impression of a rush of business. It is the only way to keep a woman. If she thought I wasn’t rushed to death, she’d lose confidence in me and go somewhere else.”—Chicago Record. A Cabman’s Revenge. A good story is told of a stipendiary magistrate in a Yorkshire town, not given to err on the side of leniency, who heavily fined a cabman for fast driving. A few days after the magistrate, de tained rather longer than usual in the court, was hurrying along to catch his train when, seeing an empty cab handy, he hailed the driver and directed him to proceed to the station, telling him that he was pressed for time. The driver, however, heedless of the hint, kept to a gentle trot. “I say, I say, my man,” exclaimed the fare, with his head out of the window, “drive faster than this!” “It can’t be done, sir,” replied the driver. “Ye see, if we drives faster we’re had np afore the ‘beak,’ and we gets fined, so we has to be careful.” He did not alter his pace, and neither did the “beak” catch his train.—London Tit-Bits. Women Usurers. Women are, as we know, invading most trades and professions, but it is in teresting, says the London Lady, and not, a little startling to learn that they have even taken to the doubtful one of usury. “You would hardly credit,” said a well known solicitor recently, “what a huge number of women money lenders there are about.” Many of them have small private connections only, obliging femi nine friends or acquaintances pressed for the amount of some dressmaker’s or mil liner’s bill with temporary loans at inter est. But there are others who go in for it extensively—advertise, and, in fact, make quite a handsome income out of it. The Nurse's Business. The Caller—Do the children mind you when the mother is out? The Nurse—I don’t require any mind ing, ma’am. I was not hired for them to mind me, but for me to mind them.— New York Press. Our Thanksgiving Gift T<> EVERY ONE OF OUR READERS. An American Beauty.
