They were girlish things-dainty

worn slipper, and ic!t a thrill akin to

"No elew yet," he murmured.
"Perhaps there are letters in this
box."
Its catch was bent, but he wrenched
it open, and out flew-his own photo
He sat d own plumtp in a box of lace

his 'iitals, and a date he had been

"O0, myi little girl, what has hap

N%o, here are your initials on thiis belt

Th young man grew excited and
rapturous~ over each article; presently
he lfte~d a package of letters from one
coner.
"3Iy own-and they express the
greatest happiness life ever brought
me. They are like the leaves that flat
ter down in the November rt.in. I
wonder why she kept them. How many
there are!"
Unfastening the cord, he turned the
letters over and found many of the
envelopes scribbled upon by a iamiliar
hand. There were items jotted down
to be 1eembered in answering, and
scraps of poetry which had not long
since reached his eye, and been ever
since cherished in his memory. Upon
the last one-for they were all nu
bred-was writiten in ink this giriih
conf esion: "Al Courtney, I love you

Resting his head on the empty tray

"Well !" he cried, "what mystery

"No mystery at all," was the delib

call it. is worth something, and would
be a regular golcl mine to a girl. I've

"Yes," Al reluctantly answered; "I
found her name and an address, but
it is hardly likely you could find her
after so many years. You know, they
keep i:ggage a long time before it is
sold."
"i'.n not sure about that," said
Fre3. "I've thought about it all the

It will be rare fun to try, anyway.

"Brut no doubt this girl was l;illedl

Fred laughed immodertely.

When fairly tlownstairs Al said he
had forgotten his handkerchieF, and
;'c back three steps at a time to get
g the picture and placing
it in an i:iside pocket, he said to him
self:
"Surely there' nothing else to give
me away. But I must wheedle him
out of the trunk."
After dinner Fred "went through"
the contan;s of the trunk, making
boyish rema"irks concerning each arti
dle as he tljrew it aside. Al inwardly
winced at these remarks, and could
scarcely restr.ain himself from kaock
ing him over on the spot.
"What mkes you so crusty?"
queried Fred, suddenly, as one of his
choicest jokes was met by a. gruf
"J'm !" "There's no fun in you, and
why you want this stuff beats me.
Your sisters would turn up their noses
at secoal1-hand clot.hing, if it is pretty.
But it isn't worth fussing over, so take
it along. No dlon.>L it would p)rove' a
white elephant on my handIs sooner or
later."
Not until the trunk was safely in
his room could Al breathe freely ; even
then it was no easy matter to keep it
out of his sisters' sight. They bioth
made a pet and confidant of their one
broter,M ad.sashon of dropping
into his room at all hours to talU him
of their schemes and woes. IHe had
pushed the truk unier a mahogany
table in the corner, the old-fashioned
cover of which reache2 almost to the
tioor.
When he told the:n he was going
away for a little business "trip," they
beset him with q~uestions and petitions
to be taken witii him, 1inally declar
ing that they woul clean house
while ne was gone, and "sort out his
tras]."
So behold him, in the deal of night,
carrying the "white elephiant" up the
narrow attic stairs bumuping his head
on every rafter and getting cobweoe
in his mustache. l{e coere.1 it with
old clothing, pushe'l a big box in
rront of it and then crep d ownstaiurs,
feeling as guilty as it lhe hal beoen con
ealing some crime. At b)reaLkfast the
girls both talked at once about the
burglar who tried to get in. and how
they pounded on Al's door and could
not even get an auswer.
At noon he was off, and as the train
whirled onward he becumo possessed
with fears. She might not be at Hast
ings; she might not care for him after
these three years; she might even be
married or dead.
Arriving at his destination at last,
he only stopped to leave his bag at an
hotel, and walked rapidly to a familiar
house in the suburbs. Ringing the
bell, he inquired for Miss Burr in a
matter-of-f act way, as if he had seen
her the day before. He watched the
girl's face as he spoke, andL saw no
trace of surprise. She simply said:
"Miss Burr may not be able to see
you, but come in, and I will ask."
Presently he was shown into a small,
sunny roo~m, where, on a couch, lay
the one girl ho had ever loved. He
meant to explaia at once the cause of
his foolish going and eager coming, all
of which he had framed into frank.
beautiful sentences; but somehow
they forsook him, and he fell back on
the commonplace. She received him
with quiet words of welcome, and then
"Pardon my position, but I am such
an invalid that it is a trial to sit up.'
"An invalid !" he echoed, faintly.
"es" she answered. "Did you
not hear of my accident scveral months

A REPULSIVE O;CUPAUi0_'

How the Legal Decrees Are Carrie
Out in Cuba, Fraue, Spair
China and Elsewhere.
ROBABLY more legal execn
tions occur in Cuba at pre:
ent, according to the Ne1
York Herald, than in an;
country in the world, but there ar
no professional executioners in tha
war-ridden island. Garroting in Cuba
although under the requirements o
Spanish law, is a very rar_ oceut
tence. The circumstances must b
very grave before a Cuban judge wil
sentence a prisoner to deatih; not fron
any sentiment, but from the fact tha
powerful pressure is usually brough
to bear by the friends of a condcmnei
man uno n the judiciary. Genera
Campos has firmly objected to the re
vival of the garrote as a means of pun
ishment for rebels caught under arms
althourh a strong effort was uiade br
Cuban tories to have the barbarou
relic brought to use a~ain. The gar
rote has been considered barbaron
because of the horrible spectacle i
makes of a victim dying under it
grip. After the victim is secured it
the chair, and the "cravat" place:
around his neck-the cravat being th
band which presses again,st his thro;
-the executioner gives a saddcln hal
turn to the garrote handle,and almos
instantly a screw punctures the nec
at the back and grinds into the verte
brac, breaking the bone anl piercin;
the marrow canal. For an instant th
body of the victim shivers, tremble
and stiffens, as if sufering intens
agony. This lasts but an instant, fo
death comes as soon as the screw ha
broken his neck. There is no profeC
sional garroter in Cube. That ofie
is alvays performed by some al tach
of the prison where the execution is ti
take place. There is the usual Span
ish aecnmpaniment of priests and pln
toons of soldiers. At present most o
the executions in Cuba, being of
military character, are by the bullet
and sometimes the poor markamanshi
of the soldiers mikes the scene fa
more painful than if the prisoner wer
guillotined.

In this State, where condemue
prisoners are executea by electricity
the man who turns on the curren
stands in another room and is public
ly unknown. This makes thme lot c
the executioner a :omparatively cas;
one.
In Scotland the duty of witnessin;
executions is imposed on the civil
magistracy, one of whom m?uteuds so
this purpose. Since 1807 Edinburgi
has had no regular executioner, bn
depends one the L'ondion executionea

Nobody could be found willing to car
rv out the sentence. Finally Caleraf
himsel offered to execute his fathe
and brother, provided he was give:
his freedom. The compact was mua:lE
and the father 'and brother were dui:
exeuted. Caleraft was then mad

over England in the perforance o
his duties. e never seemed to worr;
over public opinion, but rather er

peculiar trade.
Besides the usual fees of L1 pe
month as a retainer, the E2nglish es
ecutioner received E10) for every es
ecution. In addition to this the Eng
lish executioners from early time
have claimed the clothes of the ex
ecuted as a perquisite.
So numerous were the public c.,
ecutions in England in fern: r time
that almost every town and cont
had an executioner as an acknowledge
oficer of justice, with a salary. 0
many noteworthy occasions specia
executioners were employed. Whe:
Charles L. was put to deatht the execal
tOiner concealed their faces undle
visors, but this was trore in the wa'
of precaution than of custom. Th
ofice of executioner seems to hay
been at one time hereditary in Eng
land. This custom died out in time
and the oflice was filled by appointl
ment.
Calcr aft was suceced ed by Mar wood
who became quite as celebrated in hi.
way as his predecessor. The last es

r HIngenious Advertising.
A citizen with a swollen jaw was
hastening along one of the principal
streets of the city, when a sign in
front of a tall building caught his at
t tention. It was as follows:
f "Painless Extraction Of Teeth Free."
He stopped long enough to note the
number of the floor on which the
business indicated by the sign was car
ried on and then hurried inside and
made his way to the dental parlors.
s "Is this the place where you pull
teet4 without pain free ?" he inquired.
r "Yes, sir," said one of the painless
extractors on duty.
"Well, i've got a grinder that's been
giving a good deal of trouble. I wish
you'd yank it out."
The sufferer took his place in the
chair and opened his month. The
operator, after applying to the swollen
gum a pungent lotion of some sort,
speedily relieved him of the offending
molar.
"Thanks," said the caller, climbing
down and picking up his hat.
"That will be fifty cents," remarked
the dentist.
3 Fifty cents?" echoed the other.
"I thought it was free. That's what
ou told me a minute ago, and it's
Swhat you say on y:me sign."

The Emperor's Surprise.
The German Emperor is a master of
little surprises quite other than those
which occasionally fetch his troops ont
of bsd in the m:ddle of the night when
they least expect it. While at Low
ther Castle he took the opportunity
afforded by the absence of Lord Lons
dale to unpack a very fine marble
bust of himself and put it in position,
screened by the leaves of a large palm.
The sadden unveiling and presenta
tion were quite dramatic in charac
ter, and it need hardly be said that
Lord Lonsdalo was highly delighted
with the carefally planned compli
ment.
