The land alone was worth more than the price asked for the house and lot together, with carpets and fixtures thrown in. The former owner had had greater business interests in another part of the world, and having found himself unable to live in two places at once, had wisely concluded to convert thc superfluous house into cash. Mr. Dan vers had bought it for a ridiculously small sum, and felt that he ought to be congratulated. But although good Mr. Danvers was jubilant over the purchase. Mrs. Dan vers, on her first inspection of thc new house, sat down upon the thrown in carpet and burst into tears. The moment she beheld the parlor wall paper she forgot all else and eave herself up to grief. It was really enough to make one oblivious of other things. Mrs. Dan woman, who loved pink-and-white rooms. The late occupant of tue house had been a big red-and-yellow man, who liked rcdand-yellow rooms, and his taste in wall paper was certainly deplorable. There'was only one thing in the house worse than the paper, and that was the carpet. "What, don't you like the paper!" exclaimed astonished Mr. Danvers, who was not artistic. "Why, that's splendid paper! It must have cost $3 a roll. Pattern's a trifle large, per haps; but just think how it'll wear! It will last a lifetime!" But, strange to say, this consoling information only made Mrs. Danvers weep the more. "There's great stuff in that carpet, too," said Mr. Danvers, eyeing it ap provingly. "It'll wear like iron, in spite of the children running ovei it Those big-magenta- roses stand out well, don't they?" Mrs. Danvers shuddered. The; car pet was a calamity. Reasonable as the price had been it had taken all Mr. Danvers could spare to make the purchase, so there was no money to be foolishly wasted in replacing the perfectly good paper and carpet. Poor Mrs. Danvers, cover ing as much of the ugliness as she could with her pictures and furniture, wisely made the oest of it, but all her day dreams for the next ten years cen tered about thc repapering of thc dis figured parlor. Her daughter Margery understood and sympathized with her mother, and together they would deplore thc dura bility of the obnoxious paper and car pet. "It would be such a pretty room,". Mrs. Danvers would mourn, "if only something would happen to that out rageous carpet and that horrible pa per!" "Wouldn't it be glorious," Margery would say, "if our chimney should get struck by lightning as the Browns' did? The paper was torn off the din-; ing room wall, and soot from'the chim ney ruined the rugs. The Browns seem to have all^the good luck," Tho Browns' selfishly retained their monopoly of the lightning, and* the h-ied paper continued to bear a charmed life. No warning voice jj? ever raised when the little Danoises approached the parlor waU^jfttn sticky fingers; and alt?flr?^S^frs. Danvers and Marge???reurly courted disaster, noii^reVer came. >**?Tt last, when Margery was 17, both paper and carpet showed unmistakable signs of wear. "Do anything you like about it. It's" your house," said Mr. Danvers, gener ously, when Mrs. Danvers pointed out the defects. "Yes, get anything you like; all paper looks aliketo me. Hard wood floors? Ye-es, I don't mind. Still I am a little disappointed in that carpet. I thought it would last for ever." "So did I," saul Mrs. Danvers; but if she felt any disappointment it was well concealed. I Then came deligthful weeks. The house was all torn up and turned over to the carpenters and paper-hangers. Mrs. Danvers and Margery spent all their days and part of their nights studying samples of wall paper. Mr. Danvers spent all his in trying to dodge the pails of paste -and varnish that lurk?d:4n every corner. At last, however, it was all finishel, to the complete satisfaction of Mrs Danvers and Margery, who ceased to covet the Browns' share of devastating lightning. Indeed, the renovated par lor became the object of Mrs. Danvers' tenderest solicitude, and the little u*n verses began to see imaginary "Keep off the grass" signs on every side. And then, when it was. n? longer wanted, the disaster came! Just a week after the departure of the last workman Mrs. Danvers went with her husband to a concert, leav ing the house and sleeping children in Margery's care. Margery spent the first hour in thc kitchen, maKing peanut taffy. When at last she returned to thc front of the house she was greeted by an odd pungent order. "I wonder," said she, "if I could have scorched my candy? No; the smell seems to come from the front hall. Perhaps something is burning upstairs." . Sne stopped appalled when she had reached the top step. Something cer tainly was burning. The upper hall was full of thick, gray smoke. i.he children!" gasped Margery. ..-'.:~? through the smoke and into the nursery. Here the smoke was dense, and through it, at the far end of the room, wnere a closet dcor was standing open. Margery could see a dull red glow. "Quick! Quick!" she sobbed, drag ging the heavy, half-stupefied children out of their beds, out of thc suffocating room, through the hall and down the stairs. "Ob. do hurry! The house is all on fire!" "There!" said she. snatching a vatfe of flowers from a table in the lower hall, and dashing flowers, water and all into the faces of the poor, aston ished children, thereby producing two indignant howls. "There, your lungs are all right if you can cry like that! Now go sit on the carriage block, and don't you dare to come into this house again until I call you, and don't you tell a soul that this house ls afire. I'm going to put it out myself. "Oh, I must-1 must do it!" cried Margery, seizing the two; heavy pails of water which Mrs. Danvers kept ?eady in her-little-conversatory for tho purpose or w?tering her plants.' "Tho fire is all in tha*- one roon}. If I let the firemen in tuey'll ruin the new floors with their muddy boots-, and they'll flood the whole' .blouse" with water. Oh, I can't let them spoil that lovely pale-green paper and those love ly floors!" s I So, never thinking that her mother would rather lose a thousand beauti ful parlors than one. little loving daughter,. Margery rushed" into the dense smoke and burled the contents af her pails straight at the scarlet glow. The smoke stung her throat and al most blinded her, but she groped her way from the room, felt her way across the hall, ran down the stairs, and refilled .her pails at the kitchen sink. Thc hath room was nearer, but Margery remembered that the faucets there were small, and knew she would save time by going to the kitchen. She drank a little cold water, filled her lungs with fresh air at thc open door and tucked up her skirts. Then up she went with her heavy burden, not spilling a drop on the precious floors. After thc third journey. Mar gery noticed that thc scarlet spot had diminished in size,'although the smoke was quite as dense. 'I must be careful not to put on 'a scrap more water than I need," said this model fireman, as she toiled up ward with her heavy pails. "I mustn't spoil the dining room ceiling. I be lieve the fire is in the pillows and bed ding stored In that closet. I'll open the window and throw them all out, lt I can." And she did, but lt was not a pleas ant task. The smoldering quilts burst into flames as she pulled them apart, and the sparks burned her wrists and hands. But with the win dow open it was possible to breathe, and when the r3king pillows had been added to thc blazing heap..on the lawn below, the atmosphere was. decidedly improved, although still by no. means clear'. . - . .- ? . As they discovered afterwards, the fire started from a few oiled rags used in polishing the hardwood-floors, and tucked into the closet " by a careless maid. It had bumed almost through the. base-board, .and would in a few moments have eaten its way into, the partitions, where it would have been beyond control. Margery had undoubtedly saved the day and a great many dollars although she had. without realizing it, risked something far more precious. She had bathed her lace and hands, had opened "all the windows to let out the disagreeable odor of buried feath ers, and was going down-stairs, well satisfied with her .evening's . work, when her lather and mother appeared at the front door. Perched on the newel post in tiro front hall; she told them all about'the catastrophe. "Where are the children?" was Mrs. Danvcrs's first question. "Goodness!" said Margery. "They must be outdoors oh "the stepping stone yet. I told them to stay there until I called them, and I never gave them a second thought!" And there Mrs. Danvers found them, sound asleep in their little white night dresses, but none the worse for their unusual experience, for- the night was warm. Mr. Danvers opened his mouth and closed it several times before he man aged to find words to flt the occasion. When he finally succeeded all he said.' was: * ' ' Marge;,, y?u-saeJl^C?ike a little driej?^nerring." ""-- _ ^But there was something besides smoke in hi? eyes, and Margery knew she was being "thanked.-Youths' "Com panion. . PEARLS. ?F THO J CHT. . Gratitude unspoken may tum to self granulation.

' After the Czar's the most luxurious court in Europe is that of Spain. The "batirle de cuisine," which is-very ancient, is valued at no less than $60,000.

As tho Iron track ls bound to force Its way Into most corners ot the world lt is not surprising thai some lines of railways-exist which "are striking evi dence of a singularly bold conception carri?d out in -the faco of obstacles Which seemed almost insurmountable. Sometimes'the route of a future line lies across a desert; then the great law of the "compensation of nature" seems to make itself felt for to bal ance the saving of time and .money due to the fact that long tunnels will nt.t have to be cut through the hills Or mountains the engineers arc con fronted by thc total absence of three essential elements of construction, namely, wood, iron.and water, which have to be transported along a newly laid line as it stretches its slow length across the desert Kassia's Trans Caspian railway, now known as .the Central Asian Railway, wa3 built under these condition?. Thousands of logs of timber were needed, and the region traversed cinnot boast, of a single tree for moro than 700 miles. This timber was required for building the long bridge, two milos in.length, over the river Amu-Darva. This bridge was always the weak point in that highly important' rail way, and -it has been replaced recently by a stone bridge. Between Merv and Charjui, the. line hnd'le^be car ried 'over shifting sands sixty-four feet d?ep. When the work is being carried out in "such regions the trains become a little town on . wheels. They .aro composed cf . two-stor> wagons, which contain sleeping vac commodation, butchers' stalls, cap teens and forges.- As the Trans-S.i berian railway grew in length it was resolved by the authorities that the workmen should have their own "church car.'' "A wagon was fitted up accordingly as. a church .with a little peal, of bells in the ajcove abpvclhe entrance.' The romance of mountain railways by no means ends with their construc tion, and traveling upon railways at a very high altitude is not a thing co be deslr?d. The Peruvian line run ning from Callao to Oroya has a two fold * claim-' lo distinction; ft is built at probably tho greatest altitude of any existing railway, nainely, 15.9?G feet above sea level, and" it affords travelers certainly: the. most unpleas ant -"experience de -/oyage"- that can be imagined.

Ther sofa of our grand-parents is re turning-high-backed, long and broad. Nowadays it is fitted out with such springs as our grandparents knew not, and it ls upholstered in soft and luxu rious ways that, would make it unrec ognizable to them. But it is the old sofa, not a divan. It is much more expensive than the narrow cot which is the foundation of all Turkish and Oriental resting places as they are known in the United States, More over, how lt can be used for a bed by night is not yet clear. This useful convertability is one of the chief , re commendations of the divan. Conse quently thc sofa can never quite take thc place of that in "light" housekeep ing. But for these fortunate beings who have more than one room and who are not driven to subterfuges it is charming. ;. The Tare of Toilet Articles. In these days of luxurious toilet fit tings one is often surprised to see the carelessness with which they are treat ed. Brushes, in particular, suffer from lack of care, although so many are needed for various purposes. Hairbrushes, toothbrushes, nail and hat brushes arc so generally mounted in silver or silver and ebony that they require a good deal of attention, as tarnished mountings are as bad as shabby finery. Silver backs of brushes, if rubbed daily with a chamois leather, will sel dom need a regular cleaning. Occasionally moisten a little whiting with alcohol and brush the silver with this. Brush out again and polish with a 3oft chamois. The backs and handles of ebony brushes should be rubbed over with a little boiled linseed oil after washing, and then rubbed with a soft duster till every vestige of oil is removed. Special care is needed In cleaning sil ver initials on these, and only very slightly moistened whiting should be used or it is apt to leave a white mark on the wood, which is extremely diffi cult to remove. In brushing the whiting off after cleaning be careful not to scratch the ebony, for once scratched it is spoiled. Ordinary wooden back brushes can be treated with linseed oil in the same way as ebDny. . Tooth^jid nail brush?5_^i^ld._al^, rw?ys~stand ilTTucTT? position that all water can drain from them.-New !.
