The greatest dandy and fop of mod ern tinmes was George irummoll, known as Beau Bruinmmell. Ile lived a, life delicate and leisured, and since ho. was poor his living deIAend3d uponl the favor of the court. Thle court at that time was represented in the set where the beau's influence was felt by the prince of Wales, who was, if truth must be told, not a slender man. It happened that the prince and the beau quarreled. To be a dandy is not generally con sidered the first mark of being a brave man, but Beau Brummell gave instant proof that he was not only a great dandly but a great man as well. The details of the story are somewhat vague, but the main facts are certain. l3rumnimell knew that his quarrel with the prince would mean an end of his prestige, but he refused to yield, and on the day following the quarrel went walking with a friend, said to have been' Sheridan. The news of the rupture between the prince and the dictator of fashions had spread, and there were not a few who gathered in the hopes of a passage at arms between them. It happened that Sheridan and Brummell met the prince and his party. With princely ostentation the royal personage called Sheridan aside and spoke to him, pointedly ignoring IBruminell, who stood by. itrummell lid not flinch in tlie crisis, he was the only person who seemed to be in differen t. Telin Sheridan returned. With a gesture of indifference Irum m1ell lifted his glasses to his eyes and, indicating with a slight wave of his hand tile person to wh1onm lie re ferred, he asled in a clear but lan guid voice the famous question: "Sherry, who's your fat friend?" irunmiell spent the greater part of the remaindr of his life in Calais, ana outeast, a brolken man. ulit with th inemory of his great rebuke, it enn hardly he said (hat in the crisis he was found wantnhg.

Cupid Simply Had Repeated and Daughter P,-eferred to Do as Mother Did instead of as She Was Being Advised. "Listen to me, Abigail," said Mrs. Wiso to her daughter. "Remember, please, that I'm older than you. Wis dom comes only with age." "Yes, mamma." "Why are you so cold to Mr. Willing -so distant?" "Am I?" "le says so. He has my indorse ment as a suitor." "Yes. He proposed." "What answer did you make?" "I declined. But he said he wouldn't take that as final." "Of course not! He'll persist-with my consent, child. Why did you re fuse to go motoring with him? He is dissatisfied over your manner, which I fear isn't nice. Has he done any thing to offend?" "le wanted to kiss me." "And didn't? You refused? Child. when a man pays court to a woman to a girl-and is serious about it when his Intentions are honorable there's no harm in a kiss." "But, mamma, isn't a kiss some thing that should be mutual?" "What do you mean?" "Should a girl let a man kiss her when she has no wish to kiss the man ?" "Certai'aly, when the man is a man of character and honorable purposes. You mustn't forget that such a match as you can make isn't the fortune of every girl. If your dear father were with us, he'd advise you as I'm advis ing you." "Is a girl to marry a man nmch older than she is because lie's honor ablo and has money ?" "Perhaps not. Solely, dear. Hut Mr. Willing ln't so old. Only forty-five." "And I'm twenty. When I'm forty five-which you say isn't so old-and he is still alive. if I shoulld Imarry him. he will be seventy. Surely that's old enouch!" "Abigail! What nonsense! What has arithmetic to do with it?" "llut figures tell fihe truth, mamma. You we're twootity when you married papa, weren't you? I think you told me so." "Yes." "And he was twenty-two?" "Yes." "And you were both poor in wvor'dly goods, and grandma wanted you to marry a rich baker, who wanted you-" "lilt. my child, you don't realize that times and manners are very dif ferent now-very different. Now everything is money - everybodv wants moley -- an(d lrsens without monrey are alsoliutely submerged. "Iit people fall in love still, don't they-young people?" "They may think they're in lovo omet imes, child, but life these days dissipates romance. Look at the di vorce courts." "Ilut I'm talking about a man I don't care a box of candy about. When you were of my age, you no dloubt thought just as I'm thinking now. You've even told me you eloped with papa to escape marrying an cld man. You were in love." "You aren't in love. And the situa tion is different." "Yes. The situation is different. But I am in love." "in love! With whom?" "With Charley Lyman." "'That boy? WVith no money, no po sition. no-" "Ilut haven't we money enough?" "Pudge! What l'oollshness! And I let you go to the tennis court with that chap yesterday!" "We did~n't go to the tennis court."
