A NICE LOVE STORY.-COunt de Les
seps, the famous French engineer, who is
now building the Panama canal, became a
widoWer at 6S, with a numerous family.
A few years later he was in the habit OF
visiting a family, in Paris, which COM
that he had undergone great dangers and
difficulties among the Arabs, because they
could not conceive how a man could live
tiers innocently asked, why, ther, do you
old Besides, if I were to fall in love
with a young girl 1t would be absurd to
think that she would fall in love with
me.'' 'tWho knows ?'' observed his ques-
toner. Lesseps told his young listener
about the rose of Jericho. which, after be-
ing dried and placed in water, again bursts
out into bloom. Soon afterwards he OBJ
tanned one of these roses and presented it
to the young girl. In a few days she ap-
peared with the re-blossomed rose in her
hand, which she gave to the Count, say
ing, ''See what a miracle the water has ef
tected upon the rose; it is the poisoning
of love in old age" Their eyes met, and
he believing that she had a meaning in
what she did, said: elf you really dare
venture to share the remaining years of an
old man, here is my hand" But for this
marriage it is very uncertain whether he
would have undertaken his laborious task
at Panama. She is always at his side. and
has been his chief help and support
throughout his arduouS conflicts with pol
iticjans, money lenders, engineers, and
labOrerS.
