manhood in a saloon, surrounded by q

in half intelligent way:

Alas!

Unheeded by,
And as they fly,

Sit idly slipping here

And he continued to the end of the bril-
liant Bohemian's beautiful lines on the
beverage of Gambrinus.
"Do you know who wrote those lines?'
asked the reporter, becoming interested
in the ragged, blue-eyed and hungry
sample of humanity.

The flag Of the United states is said to
have been suggested by the coat of arms
belonging to the Washington family.
Since it was first adopted by the Cont
mental Congress in June, 1771, it has un-
dergone several changes. At the present
time it bears thirteen stripes, alternate
red and white, with star for each State
embraced in the Union. These stars are
on a blue field and grouped together, and
symbolic the harmonious nature of the
government and the sacred character it
would seek to elevate. The red stripes
are said to Indicate daring, and the withe
purity. ss

The chief reason why evil often seems SO
much commoner than good in the world
is that evil is noisy and always advertised,
while good is quiet and passes without
notice. The daily press chronicles and
emphasizes crime, but seldom makes rec
ord of the manifold virtues, which are to
vice as fifty to one. In, these days Of Excess
sive publication, what we do read of we
are inclined to believe does not exist.
Occasionally however instances of modest
unassertive heroism get into print, and it
is pleasant and encouraging to notice
them. Here are two: Peter Rapp, aged
26, died in Cincinnati few days ago.
Nobody had known or even heard of him,
for he was only driver Of a street car,
earning wretched pittance. Still, with
this pittance he had for years supported
his father and mother, both invalids and
unable to work, and having provided for
them, had actually nothing for himself.
Last winter he could buy neither under
garments nor overcoat, and he was
obliged to walk daily from his poor house
and back, nine miles, because the street
Cal. companies, as generous there as here,
would not allow their employees,
when off duty, to ride free. His

daily hard work, added to anxiety and
privation destroyed his health, and he

BILE calling in st. Charles street for more
than 40 years. She is. the most famous
yellow fever nurse in the south-a fact
which one would never learn from her
own lips. She took excellent care of pa
tients during the prevalence of the
scourge there in 1887, and again in 1865
she was faithfully at her post. Two
years latter, when the fever ragged at
Norfolk, she went there and rendered eff
fcient servece. She went at other sea-
sons to Savannah and Memphis, and did
her utmost to relieve those who had been
attacked by the pestilence. Last sum
mer found her at Grenada, where for SO
days and nights she battled with the dis
ease, ministering to the sick and dying
with tenderness and devotion not to be
exceeded. She has done world of good,
but she never speaks of it, perhaps new
er thinks of it. She, noble, simple soul,
is once more in St. Charles street selling
peanuts, apparently unconscious that she

The lady Lutelia Isidora pulled the

Morgiana, but two words were uttered:
"My father!''
Her father soon entered. Herbert Fitz-
montburg-Boggs was a stern man. He
had been called unyieldlng; but his
daughters manner, her wild look, her
curled lip, her flashing eye! they were
too much for even him. Said he soeth-
ingly
"What is't, Lulu?"

It was now Rinaldo's turn to show his

It was too late. Already had the door
closed ON his retreating form. Rinaldo
was alone with the gathering twilight;
Lutelia Isidora alone with her anguish
and her peanuts.

[Old Song.
Suddenly the door swung open, dis
losing the face and best suit of young
darlington, the accepted sutton Of the
hand and heart of the fair Lutelia Isidora,
If the gossip OF the neighborhood might
be believed. In one hand he held his
hat, Of the spring style; in the other he
held a fishbone, no doubt eliminated from
his evening meal at the celebrated board
ing establishment of Mrs Hashmixer;
with this piscatorial souvenir darlington
ever and anon picked his teeth in man
ner to display to goodly advantage the
gem that sparkled on his finger; gem
that fairly rivaled the wealth of Alaska's
mines or East Cambridge's glass fac
tory.
But the beauteous Lutelia Isidora needs
him not. She goes on mechanically
breaking into and eating the peanuts and
throwing the shells over her shoulder.
She breaks, but she knows it not; eats,
but she tastes not; the shells she throws
she knows not whittier.
Unable to bear the suspense longer,
Rinaldo darlington lays down his hat,
takes out his handkerchief, and blows his
nose with emotion.
ALL she hears; she looks round. But
it is with bitter, scornful gaze; gaze
that curdles the smile that had half ele-
waited his newly-dyed moustache.
What means this?
But patience, she may be i'll? Ill? Oh,
horried thought! But no; she cannot be
ill; she eateth the peanuts greedily. He
has not thought of that. Ha, ha; he be-
gins to feel merry.
He approaches near enough to seize
her hand-the one not engaged with a
peanut.
"What means this singular popularity !
l have come to take you to the walking
match; have had two complimentaries
given me. Wilt go?"
Drawing herself to her full height,
which was something like five feet two,
and tearing her hand from his grasp, she
answered, while her lips curled and her
brow became wrinkled like the neck Of a
young calf
"No, wont; so, there!''

So we sat us down on sunny dixie,
Where the white pond lilies teeter
And went fishing like quaint old Ike
And she like Simon Peter.
All noon lay in the light of her eyes,
And dreamily watched and waited;
But the fish were cunning and would not rise
And the batter alone was baite...
And when the time for departure came,
My bag hung fiat as founder;
But Bessie had neatly hooked her game

CHAPTER T.
Anguish in her soul doth dwell,
AS meat within the peanut shell.

By Ron.
The high-born Lutelia Isidora had
thrown herself on the luxurious fauteuil
in her fathers octogon-tron II by SO
mansion, finished in hard wood and with
all the modern improvements the latter
including two superbly heavy mortgages.
Abstractly crunching between her teeth
the peanuts with which her pocket was
stored, she devoured the meats hysteric-
ally, tossing the shells over her exquisitely
rounded shoulders. (Her maid, Morgiana,
had been heard to put this differently, in
timating that the fair Lutelia Isadora
was round shouldered; but this was but
the homage that ugliness ever pays to
beauty.)
What was it that had SO wrought upon
the lovely Lutelia Isadora, heiress Of the
house of Fitzmontburg- Boggs?
