certain woman had daughter of her own and step-daughter. She long wished to get rid of her step-daughter. At last she said to her husband, "Take your daughter away from my sight; carry her wherever you like. Leave her in the open field to the cracking frost" The father vept and walled. but at length he yielded, placed his daughter on his sledge, drove her out into the open field, and there deposited her. Then, having crossed himself, he hastened home SO as not to witness his daughters death. The poor girl, left alone shivered and uttered a silent prayer. Up came frost and said: 'sMaiden. Maiden, am Red nosed Frost" stGood- day to you, Frost" she replied 'I suppose God has sent you for my sinful soul" Frost had intended to smite her, but he was pleased by her way Of speaking, so he took compassion on her and threw her 8 warm cloak. She wrapped herself up in it and remained sitting there. Twice did Frost come again to visit her, and each time she pleased him so much by her sage replies that he made her all man ner of presents. She decked herself with the gold and jewels he gave her, and sat on the box which had contained them, singing songs. Meantime her step-mother was bak- ing cakes for her funeral feast When they were ready she sent her husband forth to fetch his daughters body home When he had been gone awhile the house dog parked from under the table, ''The old mans daugh- ter is being brought home all in gold and sil- yer, but the old woman's daughter has no suitors-" In vain did the step mother regale 1t with cakes in order to make it change it's tune. It parked on as before. When the girl arrived in all her glory the step mother was at first astonnded. Then, after hearing what had occurred she ordered her husband to take her own daughter out to the same spot in the open field and leave her there. He obeyed. Presently Frost appeared, and addressed the girl as he had addressed her predecessor but no good words could he get from her, so he flew into rage, and froze her to death. When her mother sent for her after time, the house dog beneath the table again began to bark, this time excIaiming :: ''Suitors are coming for the old mans daugh- ter, but the old woman's daughter is & bag of bones." The door opened, and the girl was brought in dead. Her mother wept and walled, but it was too late

 The letters from their brothers while cruising In the Bacchante are always sources of unbound delight to the young prineesses. George is tho favorite, and such excIamations as {:

 Simier was one of the handsomest men ot his day, the most fascinating and polished oj l courtlers, and one whose 60nnes fortunes were the envy of every gallant in Paris. He had no sooner presented his credentials al the English Court than the inhammatory Elizabeth became completely subjugated by the manners and appearance of the captivat- 1 ing envoy. Leicester at once recognized in I the charming Simier formidable rival and ! hated him accordingly. The Queen took no pains to hide the pleasure she derived from | the society of the new Ambassador; not a day passed without her sending for him : sometimes she would call for him in her barge, and they would take the air together on the Thames she asked his advice on all matters, and it was often not until late in the evening that she dismissed him from her apartment. Such intimacy naturally did not pass without comment I'M de Simier is no stranger to me,' said Elizabeth when re-
 preached with the Ievity of her conduct,
 but faithful servant of my future hus-
 band, knowing all his secrets, and therefore
 best fitted to advise me and to train me for
 the position l am to occupy" Under the
 guidance of the envoy the conditions of the
 marriage proceeded swiftly and smoothly
 The Queen declared that she would marry
 the duke; and acting upon the advice of
 sImler, Alaneon hurried to Boulogne, crossed
 the Channel, and was met at Greenwich by
 the Queen. The interview between the two
 passed off better than had been expected i;
 Elizabeth was not disgusted, and the young
 man played the lover to perfection. He WAS constantly in her society. and when absent
 from her wrote letters burning enough. :" said one of the envoys at the court, ''to set
 water on fire" Heswas lavish of the prom ises and pledges which eourtship generally engenders, and the Qusen permitted herself to be fascinated. He was lodged in the next apartment to hers in the palace and Eliza
 beth, with her usual disregard of the worlds opinion, behaved to him very much as she had behaved to Simier, who, his mission now accomplished, had returned to Paris laden
 with gifts. Mary Stuart. well aware of the remarks her sweet cousin had passed upon the intimacy between herself and Rizzio was not slow to retaliate.

Mir. John Martin, member of the National Republican committee from Kansas, is in Washington. He says that prohibition in Kansas is practically played out, and has been, for that matter, ever since the iron clad law went into effect. In many of the smaller towns there are no saloons, but in cities saloons are running with open doors. They pay no license, but in lieu thereof they are fined once 8 month. The authorities sometimes save themselves the trouble and the saloon keepers the annoyance of arrest and prosecution by sending man around to collect the amount at stated intervals Sa- looms and breweries in Kansas are known as laboratories.

prisonment where there are successive terms
 to serve. The statute authorizes deduction
 of two months on each of the first two gears,
 four months on each of the second two, and five months on each following year. It has
 been the plan to regard successive sentences as distinct terms. Thus prisoner serving two successive terms of three years would have no larger reduction on the second term than on the first. The attorney general holds that the time is to be considered one contin- ual period of imprisonment. The change made by this ruling is thus stated: Suppose the criminal is sentenced for two terms of five years each. By the former practice he could gain only two months' reduction for each of the first two years of his second term and four months for each of the next two. But by the new rule heis allowed reduction of five months on the first and on each suc- ceeding year of his second term

The case of Montreal boarding house mistress, who resorted to extreme measures to drive out the occupants of suit of roems, has been decided against her. She first tried to freeze them, and then went to the other extreme by letting on the steam until their apartments were too hot; but they defeated one torture with gas stoves and the other by opening the windows. Then starvation was tried, and they had their meals sent up from 9 neighboring hotel. Next the furniture was taken away, and they promptly brought in some of their own.
