Not all the awkwardly ex- * pressed admiration which the swains of Ctuinbletown had laid so generously at P her feet had ever been unftirient to in* ' spire her with the smallest portion ol P that self-confidence which usually alii- d mates a belle. She was hopelessly'Shy, 11 and her conversation was terribly uioujf ^ syllabic?except to her cat. v Alice Mary (Juiublctou hod a Maltese r( rat upou which t^he lavished the treasures r< of her heart and her intellect. Every *J one who ever saw that cat said it was ^ t'he wisest looking animal iu the world* a An?l It ought to have been wise; for r Alico Mary talked to it by the hour and fi gave it the choice results of her long po- s rioda ol silence and meditation. The o uaiue of the cat was Jane. And the eat d was lis beautiful hs its name. Yet in o spite of Alice's devotion to this animal f she was obliged one duy to speak to the * l'rofessor, or I should say that it was f because of Iter devotion i A few doors away from the home of tin; fair Alice dwelt a hideous youth < whoso favorite companion was a largo n hull-dog.

His soul was tilled with per- li pctual gloom, and bo went about the <1 world with a depressed ?I might say y hang-dog?look which boded no ouu good. One day Alice was aroused from p u deep meditation by a series of heartrending shrieks followed by a dire dU- 11 cord of hissing and spitting, which she ti at .mice recognized as being the product v cf the energies of Jnue. Hushing to tho c window she beheld the dear cat mounting the fence with less dignity than * haste. At the fool of the fence stood 1 the obnoxious ball- log, looking very aiigrv. "Oh, my beautiful Jane I" screamed Miss Alice. She rushed from the house with a broom in her baud prepared tc meet death in the defense of her pet.

"(Jo away, you nasty beast!" she said. i ilut tiie dog Puled to catch the idea, and remained where he was, still keeping a , watchful eye on the cat. "Oil, dear!" raid Alice, "what shall I do!"

The chief entered into the idea with enthusiasm, lie set out froin bis far-off reservation in his native costume, hut befoie he had been in the towns many days he acquired an ambition to wear tbe white man's clothes. Tho people who had him in charge coaxed him to rctaiu his Indian garb, fearing that the picturesqucticss of their change would be destroyed by the change. But the chief was stubborn and had liis way. Ou the night chosen for his appearance before au Ottawa audience he came on the platform dressed in a I'rince Albert coat, broadcloth trousers, prunella gliiters, flowered waistcoat, white shirt, a gaudy handkerchief around his ucck and a battered brn69 wanning pan in bis hand, which he carried with considerable pomp. The audience enjoyed him and his kettle immensely. At first nobody understood why he carried it.
