"This takes the life out of me, but I'll have to go through with it somehow. It's as if I saw this room, but a good deal different, of course. This table ise here, and there is a single candle burn ing upon it. Beside the table is a man el sitting in a chair. Ie seems to have a a sort of light sack coat on over a part si of a ilitary uniform. He is very , broad in the shoulders. He's one of E the strongest looking nien that ever I saw, though not very tall, I should judge. He has a little black mustache that is too small for his face. It looks ridiculous on a man with such a heavy jaw." "That's Westcott - Norman West cott:" gasped Bunn. "When I was a boy"- - Donald went on without seeming to in hear this interruption. "I never saw a man sit so still," said ST lie. "It startled me at first. I thought a he was dead. After quite a long time another man comes into the room-the man whom I described to you this morning.

He comes in by that window, and the other man seems to see him without looking' that way. - "'Have you brought it?' he asks without a movement except of his lips. a The other seems to go into a sort of a panic. He walks up to the table like a crab, the pistol in his left hand and t tZr.t side of him coming foremost. "'Yes; I've got it,' he says, and then he breaks into a sort of harangue.

VIRGINIA SWALLOWWORT. s Beautiful Blossoms Are Pitfalls For Bees and Bugs. Honey bees and insects and bugs of ss degree find pitfalls and often death the beautiful blossoms of the milk ed, otherwise known as the Virginia rallowwort. If these flowers are ex nined any sunny day, one will be etty sure to find them decorated with miscellaneous assortment of strug ing or dead ipsects with their legs st in the slits of the peculiar blos ms. The pollen of this common plant, stead of being a powder, as in the se of most plants, consists of sticky, axen masses hidden within the blos im. When a visiting insect thrusts proboscis or leg into the opening of ich a flower, some of these masses 'ck to it, and the natural course is for te insect to flay off to another flower id fertilize this with the adhering pol n. All insects, however, are not strong ough to extricate their legs from the icky places, and then ensues the slow rture of hanging there until death or helping hand releases them from mis y. Besides being beautiful, it could quite a useful plant if we cared to velop Its virtues. Thus its milky ice contains caoutchouc. Brown sug has been made from the flowers. be silky hairs of the seeds are serv eable in the manufacture of textile hbrics, as cotton Is, and a fiber of )od quality for ropemaking may be :tracted from the stalk. The London Silly Season. "Always at the beginning of Au st," says Sydney Brooks, "the editor each London daily casts about for subject that will 'fetch' the great itish public and fill the correspond ice column, such as 'Is M~arriage a ailure?' 'The Decay of Domesticity,' nglish Versus American Women,' Chy Don't Young Men Marry?' hould Women Work?' or 'Are We provident?' A member of the pa. r's staff will write a letter to the litor opening the bail. Another mem r will reply to him. Instantly from lapham and Brixton and throbbing orincal households there sets In a eady stream of letters-all genuine ad argumentative and for the most trt quite appallingly earnest It is most curious phenomenon, such, I ppose, as no other country can show. or thousands of men and women iese annual discussions would seem be their one chance of really open g their hearts and minds to the orld, and a very strange spectacle ey make when opened, the minds es. ~cially. No one who really wanted' study England could ignore these ~bates. They throw more than a lit. a light on the English character and e average English intelligence." Chinese Etiquette. The polite Chinaman will always re 'r to himself in deprecatory terms. his trait of Chinese etiquette Is aptly pressed in one of their own tales, in hich a visitor is represented as call ig in his best clothes and seated in e reception room awaiting the ar val of his host A rat that had been -ying in a jar of oil on a rafter above, ightened at the intrusion of the call -ran away and in so doing upsetb the 1 jar, which fell on the visitor, satu tting his elegant robes with oil.

Unjustly Punished. A friend of mine returning to camp ter a day's shooting, says a writer Navy and Army, suddenly came in ght of a big she bear with two cubs flowing in single file proceeding ong a ridge, the forms of the three ing sharply silhouetted against the :y. It was a very long shot, but he ~termined to try it, so drew a bead i the old she bear and fired. The re ilt was curious. The procession opped, the she bear scratched her If hastily, then turned around and, garding the cub immediately behind ith grave disapproval, boxed its trs soundly and then went trundling along the ridge, evidently under e impression that her frolicsome off >ring had been up to some unusually jectionable tricks.

Heart Trnazedies That Line the Route of Letter Carriers. "Tell you a story? Why, yes, I might tell a good many stories if that was in my line." The letter carrier blew a pearly wreath of smoke upward and fiecked the dead ash from his cigar, says the Denver News. "Let me see. There's an old lady on my route down in Alabama who sits knitting the live long day by the front room window. Every morning and afternoon when I whistle at the door of her next door neighbor she lays down her knitting and peers with a tired, eager face out of that window until I go by. She's got a boy somewhere out west. Ile doesn't write to her twice a year, yet twice each day the whole year through she sits there, with that anxious look, waiting, waiting, waiting. I feel a twitch at my own heart every time I pass by and see the look of expectancy fade into disappointment. Sometimes I'd give .70 to be able to stop and give her five lines from that good for noth ing boy of hers for whom she's eating out her heart." "That reminds me," said a younger man who heard the letter carrier's sto ry, "of a pretty baby on my route in a Louisiana city. She's a dainty tot about four or maybe five years old. She has blue gray eyes like a wood vio let that look a fellow straight to the heart. Some little girls can do that after they are older. This tot's mam ma died six months ago, and for a month afterward she used to come tripping down the walk to meet me with a little white note In her hand, and, looking me to the heart out of those big trusting eyes, she would say, 'Mr. Postman, won't you please take this letter to my mamma in heaven? I used to take the dainty missive from the w=e pink hand. I couldn't tell her bow far away her mamma was. One day she came without a letter, and there was pain in the great, sweet eyes. 'Mr. Postman, baby wants a letter from mamma. Please, Mr. Postman, tell my mamma me wants some letters too.' And, boys, every day for a week [had to pass that baby with the pain in the gray blue eyes, and I wondered the angels did not find some way some how to make her baby heart under stand." FRUITS AND FLOWERS. Water in which mignonette has been placed should be changed often, since it quickly becomes foul. The best use to make of old bones 5s to break them up and bury them aear tha roots of fruit trees and grape rines. By sowing nitrate of soda in small ;uantities in showery weather under trees a most beautiful verdure will be >btained. It is not a good plan to fill an old 3rchard with young trees. The soil is too much exhausted by the growth )f the former occupants. Geraniums bloom most satisfactorily when grown in comparatively small pots and soil which is termed rich, but sot rank with excessive manure. Stir, spade, rake and pulverize soil thoroughly before planting or sowing. he importance of this work cannot be verestimated] if you desire fine blos soms. Geraniums that have been used for ummer bloomers will not flower again sntil the late spring months. Plants or winter blooming should be grown aspecialy for this purpose. THE SNIPE. lueh Lead Is Wasted on the Artful Dodger at Migration Time. The snipe, properly Wilson's' snipe, lallinago delicata. but commonly snown as English snipe and wrong ully called half a dozen other names, s a widely distributed species. It vis ts every state at some season. Its orthward migration extends within the arctic circle,- while it is known to go uthward to northern South America d the West Indies. Comparatively ew of the birds whlich move north vard from February until May breed south of the internationg line. It is uite true there are breeuing grounds it various points of the northern states, ut the great breeding range extends rom latitude 42 degrees north to some .determined point much nearer the pole than most sportsmen will venture. Some time In September the first southbound birds pass below the Cana lian grounds, and soon most of the suitable marshy bits of east and west 2ave their share of long billed prizes. rhen begins an astonishing attack Tvhich extends from ocean to ocean and renerally sweeps southward from Can ida to California, Probably tons of Lead, half of which is wasted, are fired t the artful dodger.-Edwyn Sandys . Outng._______ That Awmul Boy Jones. Fitty or more years ago "that awful by Jones" wvas the torment of Queen Victoria's life, and his short career in public contains a mystery which would try the mettle of Sherlock Hoclmes. - He was a barber's apprentice who in some unexplained way discovered a passage into Bluckingham palace, with which he alone was acquainted. When be was first found trespassing, he was ently admonished and sent home. Soon after he was encountered again in the palace. He would not tell how be obtained access. Again he was sent ome, and again he reappeared. Once he calmly admitted that he had been lodging in the palace for a fort night. He had laid snug during the day, sleeping in the royal apartments, and at night had wandered from i'oom to room, helping himself to the food Left over from royal repasts. Hie had seen the queen repeatedly and indeed bad never been far from her. The matter was considered so serIous that the boy was summoned before a special meeting of the privy council. Ie refused to give any account of his secret. Soon after he disappeared, and it is supposed that he was removed un er state protection. Promising For the Tenors. Three tenor's while strolling in Paris began to talk of their engagements for the coming season. "Where are you two fellows going?" isked one. "I'm going to Rio Janeiro," answered yne of his companions. "So amn I," answered the other one. "That's very 'queer," said the first speaker, "for I'm going there too." They then compared notes and, find [ng that the same theatrical manager bad engaged each of them, they called :m him and asked for an explanation. "I don't see why any of you should be dissatisfied," he replied. "I've en ;aged each of you because 1 don't want to be left without a tenor in Rio Ja neiro. It is very probable that before you are acclimated there yellow fever will carry off two of you, and wouldn't [ be in a nice fix then if I hadn't a third tenor on hand?" Experience worries more men than It THE FASTING FAD. There !s No Advantage to Be Gained From Gcing Ilungry. We are living in an age of fads, re marks Good Health, and as its opinion has been solicited in regard to the "fasting fad" it proceeds to give it as follows: There is no particular advantage to be gained from going hungry. Hunger is the voice of nature telling us that the system necds food and, like all of nature's warnings, should be heeded. To be sure, a great many, we might say the majority, of people eat too much as well as too often. But the entire abstinence from food is an ex ceptional remedy if it is used at all. In cases where one's stomach is filled with germs it is far better to fast than to go on eating in the usual way, but even then it is not necessary, for one can get all the benefits of fasting and more without discomfort by subsisting for a time upon a fruit diet. In this way the germs are starved out, the fruit juice acting as a disinfectant. Usually one or two days of this kind of fasting is all that is needed, and it is not always necessary to use the fruit entirely alone even then. Some dry sterilized bread, such as zwieback or granose, my be taken with it with out interfering with the purpose of th3 fast. It is really wonderful what.can be accomplished by the use of fruit in ridding the digestive tract of germs. Eau de Cologne. How many of those who use cau de cologne from Cologne daily, one might almost say hourly, are aware of the fact that it was invented by an Italian and not by a son of the Fatherland, which gives its name? Almost 200 years ago an Italian priest, Giovan Maria Farina, eked out his modest fortune by selling perfum ery, little art objects and so on at Do modossola. In 1702, happening to -be in Cologne and making use of some of the finest vegetable productions of the country, he discovered the secret of the miraculous perfume, which has never been revealed to this day except to his descendants. He soon devoted himself to the sale of his Invention, which was so satisfactory that, need ing help in its manufacture, he had his brother and nephew join him from Italy. The increasing fame of the water brought increasing difficulties of rival ry. New firms who stole his name, his trademarks, stamps and so on sprang up like mushrooms, but they could not steal his secret. Smoking a Narghile. "The narghile is the best instrument to smoke tobacco through, provided you use it in the right way," said a man who knows. "Most people use it in the wrong way. They load i: with'tobacco and light up with a match as though it was a pipe they were smoking. This is incorrect, and the narghile, so abused, has an abomlna&le taste and' odor. The right way to use the nar ghile is first to dip your tobacco in water, squeeze the water out and place the so'ked, damp mass in the pipe bowl. Then you take a lump of burn ing charcoal and set It on the top of the wet tobacco and begin to smoke. The tobacco itself, you see, Is not really alight; it's the charcoal that's alight; it is the burning charcoal that eats the tobacco up. This is the secret of nar hile smoking, And a narghile, smoked properly, is .delicious-makes, in fact, the very best smoke in the world." Philadelphia Record. Hler Great Fault. A Georgia citizen recently said that while riding out from Savannah on horseback he saw a typical southern matron outside a whitewashed cabin, while on the lawn in front a bevy of young colored children were playing. There were eight of them altogether, seven of their number being very, very dark, while the eighth one was light complexioned. "You've got some fine looking chil dren there, auntie," he said. "Deed I hab, boss," she replied. "Dere ain't any better pickaninnies in de whole state of Georgia den dat first sben, but dat eighth one, dat mulatto, she done make me more trouble dan de whole oder seben put togedder." "In what way?" I asked.* And she replied: "'Cause she done show dirt so easy!" Chased and Refined. At a recent police court sitting a man wasged 40 shillings and costs for as sauuug a policeman. Considering him self a much injured man, on reaching the door he began abusing the magis trate in very violent language. The magistrate sent an officer after him, and the delinquent found himself once more in the dock and fined again for contempt of court. "My man, if you had been more chaste and refined in your language," sid the magistrate, "you would not have been chased and re-fined."-Lon don Tit-Bits. plow Goshawks Are Trained. A French traveler states that the goshawk is still used in Persia In hunt ing the gazelle and that it is trained to feed on that creature's beautiful eyes by placing its food in the emptied eye balls of a stuffed gazelle, so that when used in the hunt the goshawk stops its victim by attacking Its eyes, a horribly cruel form of sport. A Lovers' QuarreL "Halloa, Fitzy! where did you get that black eye?" "Oh, it was only a lovers' quarrel." "Lovers' quarrel! Why, your girl did not give you that. did she?" "No; it was her other lover." The ink of the Greeks and Romans was merely lampblack mingled with gum in the proportion of three parts of the former to one of the latter.
