P Jl Crosses. p> E began to play first on a W || bu )( scrap of paper which I bad ? Vv ? utilized to make a diaft i * )R gram of tbe neighborhood ft Sro>r to show her the relative H position of our respective homes, that K is to say, of her home and the little house which I had bought and furM^^qished in the somewhat wild hope that she might one day by becoming its j|| mistress convert it into my home. On W that occasion she had treated the diaw gram flippantly by guiding my hand io 2 make a nought in the area which stood 1 for mv front crarden. and her mischiev fous look conveyed to me that the teypher was meant to represent the lum of my worldly goods. Accordingly, I responded with great independence by making a big cross? the symbol which I believe is popularly supposed to denote a kiss?on either side of the little square which in my amateur drawing stood for the front door. Sh? resented this because she said I h&d played out of turn. She thereupon drew the correct figure for a game that she termed noughts and crosses and instructed me how to play in accordance with rule. The figure ;was very simple, merely two perpendicular strokes crossed by two horizontal ones, and there was no skill required, it seemed. One merely put a nought or a cross into one of the lit itle spaces ana am one 5 ievei uesi m get three in a row, which counted one point. It was a very childish pastime, and yet after that day I found myself playing it with her at every opportu-j nity; and it had at least the merit, j like, mediocre music in a drawing room, of affording cover for conversa- j Hon. "I don't think." she said one day. in 'an interval which I spent sharpening her pencil, "that I'm exacting; but one naturally expects something out of life, either love or money, and you can't give me either.*' | "At least" 1 said, in a low voice. "I give you krve." "iio; that's where you make the mistake. You think that in loving me you give me love. But you don't? not an emotion even! Cross out love!" "I shall do nothing of the kind," I |E responded, indignantly. "As for money," she pursued. "I dor't think, I don't really think that 400 a year or so is the height of my & ambition. Put a nought for money." Hfe , "I decline," I said, "for I can at least look to the future with tolerable certainty." gfi^L "It's no good looking too far ahead." said; "you must remember we've to love in the present." jSBB^fc'ou're richt." I said, mildly, "and n^rafiHnot mueli consolation to me at the BnggSHsent moment to reflect that you'll ^HHFtainl.v be sorry some day that BPUyon've let such a chance slip." wA She paused, looked hard at me, and IffijiHesuTned. gffijH'To put the matter in a nutshell. really have nothing to offer me. gggMgShing, that is to say. except marSffiSHrge. and I don't think that of ilself M^^Kfticiently attractive."

She shook her head and put a nought Into the middle of a new diagram, and I responded belligerently with a cross underneath. "As regards the money," I said, "you can't expect me to make a fortune without ever having had an opportunity." t. "No," she admitted. V "rfut you seem to expect me to make ^ you love me without any opportunity at all. You haven't given ru? much H opportunity," I said, regretfully. ? "That depends." she said, "upon .what vou call onnortunitv." "Well," I remarked. "I think Miss f 'Arnold gave me a pretty good opporf tunity tlie night of the dance whpn I | sat out with her in the conservatory." "Miss Arnold?" she asked5 quickly, t "What Miss Arnold? Do you mean hft| Jessie Arnold? 01). I always said she fas a most atrocious flirt!" Hi 4,I don't know her Christian name," m I said vaguely.

"And in the meantime you've always ?0t the house," she said, thoughtfully.

Becre, ir | JtJlack and White. FEAR OF DEATH DIMINISHING. Undertakers' Customer* Less Afraid That Formerly. That people stand less in awe o] death than they did a few years age is the belief of several New York tm dertakers. They say that nowadays twice as many persons make prepara tions for their own burial as a genera tion ago. In accounting for this, out uneral director said: "It is my opinion that the displace ment of the gruesome wooden coffin by the modern burial casket, which is not offensive lo the eye. has done mucli to rob death and interment of theii horrors. Some people when they arc sick and are fearful that they will never regain their health sometimes call In an undertaker, or his or he* friends do it, for the ill one. and make air arrangements for the funeral, selecting the casket and designating what kind of a hearse is preferred. It is the same with some persons in advancing years. A well-to-do man living in this neighborhood wen1 abroad last year, uud before going provided for any contingency that mighl arise while he was on the voyage. He is still abroad, and, peculiar as it maj seem, a few weeks ago I received s letter from him, dated at Amsterdam telling me that he was still alive. 01 course he did not say it in those words but, while he wrote me about some trivial affair, I could see plainly that il was simply a pretense under which ht informed iue that he had not died yet When he shall die he is to be taken to his native town, and there buried in a specified cemetery, and everything will be done in strict compliance witl his desires as he expressed them to me I "Men who are going into hospitals to have serious operations performed frequently make arrangements with us for their funeral and burial, should the operation terminate fatally. Such men seem to approach the subject with entire calmness. But it is different with the man who is in perfect health seemingly, at least, but who wants tc make arrangements for the burial ol his body after death, whenever thai shall occur, because he has uo rela tives or near friends who he is certair will look after 'all that is left of "I'" or because he fears he might not have the money at the end that he has al that time. One day a middle-aged man came into my office and approaclied the subject with manifesl embarrassment. I understood what hf was driving at, and pulled from my drawer a score or more of contracts such as he wanted to make, and he, seeing that he was not the first ta think of such a thing (although probably ho thought he was when the subject first entered his mind) seemed reassured. and we proceeded with the business in a business-like manner. "Some of these contracts I have made for a "ertain number of years, the amount of money sufficient to cover the expenses and the payn^enl for ray services being deposited. Ana it has happened that when that period has expired the other party to the contract has decided that he isn't goinp to die. or that he needs the money, and he takes the prepayment and goes ou his way rejoicing. It is the same way with those who go into hospitals tc have operations performed. Of course, if they don't die the contract is null and void, and the patients, regaining their health, seem to forget it entirely as they go on their busy way tbrougl life."?Nt'W York Times. Not Absolutely Helpless. Some few persons still cherish the idea that all women are. absolutely helpless in business matters, and thai they are so lacking in financial ability that they cannot safely be trusted tc handle money. Mr. Black belonged to this class. Il< had been in the habit of paying all th( household bills at the end of cad: month, and his wife, although allowei! unlimited credit, had never had an al lowance. One day the Blacks hap pened to be passing the comparatively new building in which the duuk was situated. "Do you know, John." remarked Mrs Black. "I have actually never been in side the bank since it was built more than two years ago." "You haven't!" exclaimed John. "II that's the case. I guess I'd better givt you a check this month and let you paj the bills. Do you thiuk you'd know how to cash it?" Mrs. Black received the check. Thai evening Mr. Black asked, not withoul sarcasm, if she had succeeded in in dorsing it properly. "Oh. yes," returned Mrs. Black cheerfully. "How many bills did you pay?" "None?it seemed a pity to waste al that money paying bills." "Then what in the world did you d< with it?" "Oh," returned the little woman, f?e I "T -Suet ripnnsited it to mv OWI account."?Collier's Weekly. The Only Titled Mate.

As a great many children are failures and as children are the Q joint product or Heredity ana environe ment, both elements preponderantly st under parental control, it would seem r- more sensible to say that there were y too many people undertaking parental 5- responsibilities instead of too few. And, 1* further, parentalhood has many cares y and sorrows and exasperations. Still, y when all is said, how many persons n who found themselves childless at .v forty-five have been able honestly to congratulate themselves? Cuildren have a lse as an assurance against destitution and loneliness in > old age. They are satisfactory to the ie vanity for family immortality. But :e more than these and all other advank tages is the advantage of prolonging k one's life.

It is a strange and startling fart that, according to the latest available figures, the proportion of the blind to the sighted in India is one in every GOO, so that, allowing for the usual native reluctance to eater into bodily defects j in the census reports, it shows that more than a half million people in that country are deprived of sight. Diseases of the organs of sight have for ages been a peculiar feature of : Eastern lands. Among the causes are i the continual glare of the sun, the 1 prevalent dustiness of the air, the lack | of cleanliness and due care of the eyes of the young. It is a common sight to f see the eyes of babies one muss of flies and dirt, which the ignorant, careless | mother is too indifferent to drive away. This peculiar Oriental affliction has long engaged tbe attention of philan- ' tbropists in India, and several societies are turning their eudes^ors to the j mitigation of the evil, as well as to j providing books for the b'*ud, and j make more adequate provision for their needs in every wajr.
