The Sweetness of Fame.


The death of Balzacs widow at the
age Of seventy recalls charming
anecdote told in one of his letters.
When travelling in Poland he arrived
rather late in the evening in the neigh
borhood of an isolated chateau, and was
asked to stay there. He soon made
himself known to the mistress of the
house, and had some conversation with
her, when beautiful young girl came
IN, and silently poured out the tea. She
was advancing toward the stranger with
Q cup in her hand, when the lady of the
house again took up the conversation
and said: 'You were saying M. de Bal
zac-" At that moment the cup the
young girl was holding dropped to the
ground, and she clasped her hands ex-
claiming: "Can it be the great M. de
Balzac!' For that one instant" writes
Balzac, II tasted the sweetness of fame.
The young girl was Eveline Rzewuska,
who afterward became Countess Hanska,
and who, finally, after many years Of
tedious waiting, married poor Balzac,
who died few months after the we'd
ding, which took place in 1850.

A Twenty Thousand Dollar Kiss.

A st. Louis woman has recently sued
an old beau for forcibly kissing her,
and has demanded twenty thousand
dollars damages. In land where kiss
es can be had for nothing by any man
who is worthy of them this seems a high
valuation, although the trial may de-
velop some justification for the lady's
claim. It may be that the man had
been eating onions. If he had the sum
claimed is entirely too small. Or he may
have been an habitual smoker or drink
or, which would have made the case
still more serious. In the absence of
any detailed evidence it is possible to
imagine only one of two reasons for the
magnitude of the lady's claim--either
the man was personally obnoxious or he
made grave mistake in taking only one
kiss. A man who values such a bless
ing enough to steal it, yet is satisfied
with single one, is not the sort of ma
with whom lady of spirit can have
particle of patience.

Al fond mother, when the day is DER,
Leads by the hand her little child to bed,

Still gazing at them through the open door,
Nor wholly reassured and comforted
BY promises Of others In their stead,
which, though more splendid, may not please

So nature deals with us and takes away
Our playthings one by one, and by the hand
Leads us to rest 30 gently that we 60

Being too full Of sleep to understand
How far the unknown transcends the what we
we know
