That night, when the bell of Miquilet
told the midnight hour Isabella stood in her bal
cony, which overiung the garden. Aslight move
ment was soon heard among the orange foliage,
and tall figure. shrOuded in flowing mantle,
advanced and stood beneath the balcony.
Are you ready asked the mask.
"OKw answered the maiden, in breath scarce
audible from terror.
Secure, then, this ladder to the rails and de-
scend" And throwing ladder Of silken cords it
was caught by Isabella, VINO having fastened it as
desired, the next moment she was in the arms of
her lover.
Now, then for the chapel of the nearest Justice
of the peace. Ere the sun-glntS fall upon the Al
hambra Saloon you will be mine"
That morning you must never see" cried man
Who advanced from an outrageous shrubbeTy
close by. and struck Pedro a powerful blow behind
The left ear
Il am slugged - cried the unfortunate man. as
who bore him swiftly away.
The next morning the Donna Isabella was buried
in grief and a peTcale wrapper. Corsetless, and
with tear-Stained cheeks, she sought her mother.
- They have taken my Pedro" she cried, despair
iHgly who could have done it?'
q Il must have been the tcn-sp0t or jack" re-
responded the mother. Nothing less than that
can take the pedro"
In one corner of The Valencia cemetery NAV be
seen grave kept beautiful by flowers, which low
ing hands have strewn upon it, It is the grave of
the Donna Isabella She died at the age of seventy
Ihantic but y0u can bet on its being centre shot

To All Friends.

Having had numberless inquiries for ad-
vertising cards from ladies in all parts of
the country who are interested In the pre-
vailing fashion OF making "card collec-
tions," we are having printed for them a
set Of seven beautiful cards, each in six
colors and on a gold background, in the
very highest degree OF art, illustrating
Shakespeare's "Seven Ages of Man." We
have spared no expense in these cards
they are simply little art gems. Our only
aim has been to publish the finest cards yet
shown. Applications for them have come
In so rapidly that nearly the whole edition
Is engaged before the receipt by us of the
cards from the artist. We have, therefore,
been obliged to adopt the following plan
for the distribution of the remainder No
more Of the gilt Shakespeare cards, seven
in the series, will be sent, excepting upon
the receipt of statement from
8 grocer that the person applying
for the cards has bought OF him on
that day at least seven bars of Dob
bins Electric Soap, with price paid for
same. All applying In this manner will re-
ceive the full set of seven cards gratis BY
mail. This will insure us that our friends
and patrons get their share of these beauti-
full designs, although 1t in nomanner repays
us for the cost of the Cards. Your grocer
has the soap, or will get it, and the pur-
chase by you OF seven bars Of it at one time
will secure for you gratis seven really beau.
tiful Cards The soap improves with age,
and is an article of necessity in your house
every week. Therefore you are not asked
to buy useless article, but one that YOU
must have any way. Please send us your
applications at once, and tell your lady
friends making "Card Collections" to do
the same. Price to ladies not buying soap,
rs cents a set. Yours respectfully,

The proposed Masonic bazaar and fair in
aid of Solomon's Lodge No. l, OF Free and
Accepted Masons, should receive the sup
port of every citizen of the States, but more
especially those who are members Of the
fraternity. The lodge is the oldest in the
State, and the second Oldest in America,
having been instituted in 1873
by General Oglethorpe and his
followers, and chartered by the Grand
Lodge of England in 1875. Georgia be-
ing founded In spirit Of benevolence,
the colony was particularly recommended
by the Grand Lodge of England to the
kind consideration of Masons throughout
the world Old Solomon's Lodge has wit
messed two great revolutions, and in the
busy period of nearly one hundred and fifty
years has contributed with liberal hand to
all charities. Owing to the Lodge being in
volved necessarily In debt by the building
OF the Masonic Temple, 1t has of late years
not been able to indulge its old llberalitV,
and It is for. the purpose of relieving itself
of part of its present indebtedness that the
bazaar and fair will be held.
The brethren of Zerubbabel No. Is, Clinton
No. 81, Ancient Landmark No. 23l, Georgia
Chapter No. 3, and Palestine Commandery
No. z, knights Templar, are all interested,
as according to an old agreement with them
they are to have the use of their present
rooms free of rent forever, when Solomon's
