'A? he went to his daily tasks his way
Led down a lane that was mean and
bare;
He journeyed alon-: day after day
Beholding naught that was lovely there;
He went with ti wish to be free to po
Where the winds were sweet and the
vistas fair.
He thought of his tas'ts as he went along,
And pitied himself for his han'ess lot:
There was hate in his heart for the rich
and stronsr.
He dreaded the toil that the long days
brought,
| And others passed onward and up to train
The fair rew ards that he once had sought.
As he went to his hateful tasV one day
^ Another passed through th? lane and
W' where

Sweet petals of (lowers were blown in

The birds that never had sun before
Burst forth in a churns of gladness there.
So. day by day. as he went along
A newer beauty enlnrred the scene;
Dav by day with her simile and son?
Another gladdened what once was mean.
And a man passed umvard and onward
who
Had once done his work as a mere machine.

that no jealous competitor had
stolen his sign. During the second
month he had almost hoped for some
gentle little epidemic which would entail
a well-paying run after the good
physician. During the third month
his ideas had expanded to an ambitions
extent. He yearned for a pestilential
plague or something. He did not
wish this through any selfishness of

" Jimmy Bockerty sat in the Imperial
Third Avenue Beer Talace, blandly
' " philosophical. His legs were graceful[
- ly crossed. One arm was thrown over
i the back of his chair. With his other
hand he lovingly and reflectively caressed
his flowing beard.
Occasionally Jimmy referred to a
paper in his band. He read with close
interest a fully detailed account of a
newly discovered malady with which a
royal personage had been afflicted. At
these times Jimmy's face became sufb
fncofl TiTitVi ?i cmiln of olfich Tncmicli
f ness. At length he gave a well-sustained
chuckle of finality and picked
' up his hat.
"There's easy money and bed and
board in this thing," said he, "and I
think that young Dr. Beebe is the
man for the trick."
Now Jimmy had always been proud
of his ingenuity, but he really surprised
himself at the fluency of his
pantomime as he described his symptoms
to Beebe a few minutes later.
Beebe sat there, full flushed with the
dignity of his first patient, an eager
expression on his face, making copious
notes.
"And I feel a dreadful tightness
here," said Jimmy graphically, "and a
frnimr rlrnirn hprp" hp pnn
tinned.
"Glorious!" murmured Beebe. Ho
could restrain his rapidly increasing
enthusiasm no longer. "My good man!''
said he, "do you know what ails you?"
"Sure," said Jimmy, comfortably.
f- Beebe fell back with a puzzled gesture.
Jimmy took the paper from his
pocket and pointed out the article that
had interested him in the Beer Palace.
"That's what I've got" he announced,
proudly tapping the paper.
"Only I've got it in an aggravated
wM form." He hitched up his chair and
prepared himself for confidential
' speech. "Now that disease is rare," he
AAnfUiiAfl wl+h n refill mnrtnln Hnn
I of his voice; "it is likewise mysterious.
Royalty has just had it, and it's bound
to be fashionable." He fixed Beebe
with a benevolent eye. "Young man,"
said he, "do you know that if you
could cure me of this mysterious malady
it would make your reputation?"
"Ob, I can cure you," said Beebe,
with all the confidence of a single man,
"that Is, if yon really have it," he continued,
doubtfully.
"Yes, sir, it would make your reputation."
declaimed Jimmy with robust
emphasis. His voice suddenly sank to
a whisper, "and it will cost you $100,"
he added.
Beebe showed Jimmy the door with
labored politeness. "You pet out of
here." he tooted like a foghorn. Jimmy
looked at him more in sorrow than in
anger.
"By the way, you might leave your
nddress," said Beebe, carefully avoiding
Jimmy's eye.
Beebe. it may be remarked, had emulated
the foghorn perhaps because he
fplt himself drifting. It is possible
(that it was for the same good reason
that he deemed it wise to throw out a
little anehoV to windward.
*?** ?*
In the sickroom a porteneous quiet
prevailed. The blinds were drawn. An
| occasional clink of a inedkine bottle
|v was th-e only sound that broke the op.
pressfve silcnce. A trained nurse in a
^ cool blue dress crossed the room. Her
feet fell silently on the carpeted floor.
Iu the next room a consultation was
Ik ng held. William Boolio, M. D., Tras
there. Drs. AVillet and Stcnton Avere

had aieepted with alacrity Roche's
invitation to help hiui out with this
case, for the ailment happened to he
that new European malady, and the
thing promised to become fashionable
after the Easter festivities.
The doctors entered the room. The
nurse immediately held up a warning
linger. In silence the group tiptoed
over to the bed. The patient was
asleep, his beautiful flowing beard
resting peacefully upon the pillow.
His temperature, respiration and pulse
were rapidly ascertained. Drs. Willet
and Stenton looked with a certain
veiled admiration at Beebe upon findi
ing that the figures agreed with that
risiug young physician's prognostications.
"He is yielding to the treatment,"
they whispered as the nurse accompanied
them out of the room. Beebe
! soon returned alone, happily rubbing
| bis bands. The patient sat up in bis
bed and lie. too, began happily rubbing
bis bands.
"I say. Doc," remarked the patient
cheerfully, "you're making such a
great success that I'm going to raise
my price to $2r>0."
"You agreed to $100," objected
Beebe.
"Not a cent less than $250 or I wont
respond to your blamed old treatment,"
ultimated the patient reealc-itrantly.
He suddenly subsided as the
nur& entered the room and began
bathing his brow. The patient fluffed
out his board with both hands and
winked flirtatiously up at the nurse.
I The nurse winked flirtatiously back
again.
The patient, as it will have been obwas
.Tiimiiv Bockertv. and it
tickled him immeasurably to think
that the nurse mistook his wink for
delirium and winked back merely to
soothe him.
Jimmy awoke the next morning with
a vague feeling that all was not quite
as it should be. He felt aged and
querulous. His organs were playing
discords, so speaking. His feet seemed
to be a thousand miles away and after
Jimmy had followed them all that distance
they appeared to be somebody
else's feet. His pulse was feverish.
His pyes bulged from his head.
"Poor old chap," said Beebe solicitously,
feeling his pulse. "Here's u
complication, to be sure!" Beebe's
startled face as he said this was a
pretty thing to see.
"What's tie matter?" asked Jimmy
weakly. From Beebe's tone he was
"1 fn fon 1 fiftrrv for
ancauj wvfeiUMiu0 wv
himself.
"I'd hate to alarm you," began
Beebe, "and it wouldn't do you any
good to know," he continued after a
weighty pause.
Beebe stepped "back and gave the
nurse certain whispered instructions.
Jimmy faintly caught something about
deadening the pain. He also heard an
order for a barber to shave the patient's
head and beard. Jimmy feebly
called Beebe to the bed.
"I say, Beebe," he whispered, "you
remember what I said yesterday about
wanting $250 before I'd let you cure
me?" He paused for breath and weakly
wetted his lips. "Well, now, that's
all vight," he went on. "You get me
out of this safe, and sound and we'll
call it square, see?" He fell back
upon his pillow and began feebly
moaning. In a few moments he called
Beebe to the bed again.
"And I say, Beebe," he whispered,
"just don't let them shave my beard,
will you?" "With a strong effort he
controlled his rising emotion. "I'd almost
rather die than have it shaved,"
he gulped. "Honest, I would."

Monthly Crop Reports.
The monthly estimates of crop conditions
issued by the Department of
Agriculture, while recognized by those
most interested as being reliable, do
not meet with much popular favor or
appreciation. When a new census is
to be taken, and the Government corps
of statistic collectors is increased to
the number of about 50,000 people, and
the whole country awaits spellbound
for the result of their compilations,
and the figures issued from Washington
ax-e accepted on every hand as ne::r
correct as it is possible for human
agency to make them. As a matter of
fact, the Government's crop reports are
apt to be much more reliable and accurate.
In the first place, the data are
gathered bv no less than 250,000 ob'
servers, or five times as many as comprise
the Census Bureau corps, and
they are, moreover, all experienced and
iraiufj oustrvers, iiinaicni caucus iu
their several lines of industry. These
observers voluntarily give the Government
the benefit of their judgment on
local conditions. It is remarkable that
the work of this great army of figure
gatherers should be so little appre?
dated.
Studying Liquid Drop*.
The formation of liquid drops has
been investigated by MM. Ledue and
Saeerdote. and the result published in
Comptes Rendus. This Is an experimental
investigation of the relationship
between the radius of the tube and the
weight of the drop emitted. It is found
that Tate's law, viz.. for the same
liquid the weight of the drop is proportional
to the radius of the orifice, is
satisfied for radii from 0.5 to 1.5 centimetres.
but that it becomes less and
less true as this range is departed from
on either side. For orifices greater
than two centimetres the weight of tho
drop is practically constant. Tate's
law is theoretically derived from the
supposition that the surface tension is
the only molecular force acting: but it
is pointed out that cohesion pi ays J
large part in the phenomenon.

Linen of Grace and Beauty.
The present day Empire gowns require
great artistic skill to produce j
without obtaining a hardness or stiff
effect, which was quite unknown to the
soft supple flowing garments worn in
the days of Josephine's court. The fair
Josephine de Beauharnais, as immortalized
at Versailles by David, certainly
bequeathed to the world of
fashion a gown which is in every wny
seductive to feminine charms, while it
is admirably adapted for the robe
d'interieur, the toilette de bnl, or the
robe de diner. The Empire gown certainly
ranks to-day as a picturesque
example of the refined and artistic
taste of the gracious wife of Napoleon
the First. It is an inheritance which
all fashionable women of to-day strive
to possess, for a perfectly attired worn

style and simplicity of dress.
Lines of grace and linos of beauty are
the primary considerations of the well
appearing woman of to-day. Everything
else must be subservient to these
j two factors. The most supple and
I clinging materials, with harmonious
j trimmings, are sought for. No style
I introduced seems to fit the manner of
! dress more than the fringe which was
j brought out in the early autumn. It
! was a little stiff and ragged then, but
i that now brought forth ty the maker
cannot lie improved upon. It is satiny,
soft, and while It possesos enough body,
seems to shape itself in just the curvcs
and draperings desired. Many of the
! handsomest new gowns are garnished
. with it. One, a wedding dress to be
sent to England, was in wood brown
cloth, the entire front being of wide
brown fringe. The three rows were so

Uolng Smoke I'rofltmbl/.
To put smoke to profitable use has
?en. the aim of Tobiansky, the Belian
engineer. In his process the smoke
forced by a fan into a filtering
iwer charged -with coke or other porjs
absorbent, sprinkled with naphtha
r alcohol, and the soot is retained by
le coke, while the filtered gases,
lixed -with vapor from the naphtha or
Icohol, are collected in a gasometer,
) be fed to Welsbach burners, stoves
* gas engines. This gaseous mixture,
hich has been named pyrogas, burns
ith a bright flame and an entire ab?nce
of smoke. The value of pyrogas
ren makes it profitable to burn fuel
f low grade for its smoke alone, and
is computed that plants of small
>st will enable cities to derive a marial
income from the conversion of
leir garbage into purified smoke for
ght and power. Large factories and
