Mt heart they are very much like two chill

all the world coming this way, agog to

other people like an ordinary railroad on

A Thrilling Scene.

Leaning on my husbands arm, was
walking on the Rue de la Paix, about
one block from the Vendome column,
and was looking up at the column itself,
admiring the effect produced by the
dark bronze of the shaft against the
gold finished hue of the sunset sky, the
hour being about 5 in the afternoon.
Suddenly down the face of the column
fell a human form with white and black
draperies hutterlng in the air; it struck
the wreath of immortelles that surrounds
the column at its juncture with the
pedestal, and rebounded with such force
that it was thrown clear over the railing
that surrounds the base, and fell into
the center of the outside pavement /
could not realize for a moment that l
had really beheld that awful spectacle
human being self-hurled into eternity
but such was indeed the meaning of
what L had seen. In moment the pros
trate figure was surrounded by dense
crowd. The emotion of the spectators
was extreme, and one old lady burst out
crying in her agitation. The victim was
young and neatly-dressed woman. She
lay prone on the pavement as she had
fallen, but no trace of blood or mutila-
ton was visible, as one of the bystanders
had drawn her waterproof cloak around
her shattered head, that having been the
point that first struck the pavement.
Her shoes, q neat pair of black lasting
boots, had been forced from her feet by
the fall, showing clean white stockings
of a quality never worn in France by the
working classes One of her garters, also
jerked off by the fall, lay near her-a
dainty blue silk affair, with a gilded
clasp. She had, as l afterward learned,
gone most deliberately to work to ex-
ecute her purpose. She had concealed
q camp-stool under her waterproof be-
fore making the ascent. Arrived at the
top, she had profited by a moment when
the guide was busted in pointing out
certain objects of interest in the view to
another party, had then gone around to
the opposite side, had placed her camp
stool there, mounted upon it, and so con-
trived to clamer over the high railing. L
passed by the spot an hour later. The
body had long since been removed, and
the crowd was gone but few bystand-
ers fingered under the darkening sky,
looking alternately up at the summit of
the gigantic shaft that lowered above
them and down at two crimson stains
upon the pavement, upon which gravel
had been hastily strown, but which still
revealed dusky and ominous red
through the pebbles and sand that tried
to hide it.-Lucy II. HOOper's Letter
from Paris in Ne1U York World.

The Profit of Cotton. Raising.

The Financial Chronicle has an article
on the cost of cotton production. 1t be-
lieves the turning point has come to that
interest, and that the results of the year
prove that cotton can be raised proftably
in the Southern States at present prices.
1t cites the experience of a planter in
Southwestern Georgia who ran his planta-
ton by an overseer-of course the most
expensive way He raised 80, 175 pounds,
which netted him $7,S2S.50. The total
cost of the crop was So, Alb, leaving him a
profit of g, 2,515.50. Had the crop been
sold later it would have realized about
81, 900 more. If he had lived with his
family on the plantation, and done his
own overseeing, the profit could easily
have been doubled.

TAKING THE END OF THE SEATS

Twas morning clear in the newborn year,
When the frost was holding revel:
The church bells call, from the belfries tall,
Pealed forth DER the town so level.
Then the people drest in their extra best
Went to church on this Sabbath morning
With thoughts fully bent on pious content,
And the spirits meek adorning.
The church doors wide, for the coming tide,
Said plainly as words could say,
You're welcome all, who hear this call,
Come worship in here to-day"
The coming throng, as they press along,
Feel the JOY of the sacred place,
Till down the aisle they walk erewhile
And search with wistful face
And search again mid the selfish train
Who have taken the end of each seat;
Just one in pew, no room for you,
Unless you vault over our feet
VIII you leave the church, be left in the lurch,
Or try the gantlet of thorns;
Tread over the feet to get in the seat
And crush their numberless corns?
If you are slim, your sails in trim,
Your success may be complete;
But, if you are large, tits desperate charge,
The attempt to get into the seat.
'Tis terrible plight to be fastened tight,
Your sleeves in some ones bonnet;
But one more lunge, one vaulting plunge,
At last you've surely done 1t.
One good you get of this needless fret
And you know revenge is sweet
You've battered the nose and crushed the toes
OF the one in the end of the seat.
But should there come a more timid one
Who shrinks such notice to meet,
Or a stranger attend, then heaven defend
From the one in the end of seat.
o what is the reason that every season
These folks with stupor replete
Will compel such search for seat in church
While they sit in the end of the seat?
