rhs Romance d ! MiIIIonaire

There were three romances in the life
of the late Joshua Sears, the millionaire
grocer Of Boston. The first was when
he was poor young man. He started
a Irritation with a wealthy beauty on
railroad train, called on her afterward,
and finally found that his suit was in
vain, because he was poor and she was
rich. He became engaged to dashing
young widow. One Of her friends asked
her: "What are you going to be married
to that old fellow for ~ z For his
money, of course said she. Sears
heard of this; ''For my money, eh y
he cried; mot by a-blessed-sight. =
He went to his lawyers and was told she
would have a good case in breach Of
promise suit He didn't want lawsuiE
SO he handed confidential friend $40,
600 and told him to 60 and see the widow
and fix things up" which was done,
she accepting the bribe and giving hihl
his freedom The third was when he
was an old man. He found himself
enormously rich, but thought; When
am gone, as l soon shall be, who viii
enjoy it all?n So be went to his friend,
Alpheus Hardy, and said: Hardy, I'm
thinking of getting married What do
YOU think about itan Hardy thought
he knew lady who would Just suit.
''Wel, then, Hardy, YOU 60 and ar
range it, So Hardy conducted the ne
gotiations and Sears was accepted On
his wedding morn the bashful BRIDE
groom called Hardy aside, and said:
Hardy, I don't know anything aboat
this ceremony, and you do. So ! want
YOU to stick close to my side and coach
me, so that l won't make any laundering
mistake" Hardy did 50. and all went
well.

Flooding the Sahara Desert,

This is the giant undertaking of the
world, says the Christian at Work. 1t is
a fact that Count de Lesseps has explored
the route for himself. and he declares
that the construction of canal to food
the great African desert with the waters
of the Mediterranean is feasible. There
has been doubt as to whether the surface
of Sahara is higher or lower than the
surface Of the sea; but his triumphant
dispatch from Tunis indicates that he
has obtained information that to perform
his feat it will not be necessary to make
water run up hill. 1t is proposed to cut
a channel through the narrow neck of
land which separates the salt marshes
south of Tunis from the gulf of Gabes,
and thus pour an ocean into the vast
basin of sand whose farther rim is the
border Of the Soudan-a land of the
riches of India and the population of
the United States. France has been
eager to bring the heart Of Africa to the
light of civilization and the wealth of
the same to the pockets of Frenchmen,
and Colonel Flatters expended three
years oftoil and $100, 900 of treasure in the
attempt to fulfil his ambitious prediction:
~ will cross Africa with a railway
Since his slaughter by Arabs, the scheme
to penetrate the heart of the clark CON
tinentn with railway has dropped from
public attention, and Count de Lesseps,
the great uniter of the earth's waters,
has laid his stupendous project before
his admiring countrymen, with sublime
confidence In his ability to secure $15,-
900, 900 for the work by merely asking
The count is now nearly eighty years of
age, and in his long and romartic career
he has accomplished prodigious achieve
ments; but if he restores to the burning
sands Of Sahara the waves which In a re-
mote age rolled over them, the creation
of the ocean and the civilization of con-
tinent will be the climax of his career
and the chief marvel of his fame.

the other denominations to be frst-class
cemeteryl" and Mr.. Spoopendyke put on
his hat hind side before and started for
the funeral to find that while he was max
ing up his mind as to what Improvements
his wife needed, the cavalcade had left
and another pall-bearer had been ap-
pointed in his place.
~ don't care, murmured Mrs. Spoop-
endyke, as she picked up the torn gloves
and inspected them with view to mend
ing them for her own use. 'Idon't care.
l suppose they will have gloves at the
funeral for him. They always do; and
if they give him any, it will be pair
that will reach from the calf of his leg to
his shoulder blade, and wanted him to
have pair that would fit him nicely.
Anyway, can use these to go to market
in during the winter, (" and Mrs. Spoopen-
dyke put them away carefully, and sat
down to the paper Of two days before to
store her mind with useful knowledge on
the freshest topics Of the day.

Rather Small For Him

"My DEAR said Mr.. Spoopendyke, as
he surveyed himself in the glass, with
preternaturally solemn countenance.
'eMy dear, how do you think these clothes
fit me?"
"Splendidlyl" !" emphasized Mrs. Spoop-
endyke, walking around him so as to take
in all the glories of his new garments.
'1fI hadn't seen you dressed for funeral,
I should say you ought always to wear
black"
''Think the Grape on the hat is the right
height for a pall-bearer2' asked Mr.
Spoopendyke, shaking his hat on his head
and regarding his wife with steadfast
eye, as though he expected to catch her
in a lie about the hat.
''Iust exactly right" replied Mrs.
Spoopendyke. "And here are your black
gloves
'fDon't want any gloves . growled Mr..
Spoopendyke, turning again to the glass.
s'How'm going to catch hold of those
handles with pair of tight gloves onan
''But you must wear gloves" protested
Mrs Spoopendyke. "All paIl-bearers
wear gloves, and want you to look as
nice as the Others This is a real nice
pair, and | bought them for you myself.
Put them on, that's love-
Mr.. spoopendyke yielded more to the
argument than the entreaty, and held out
his hand for the gloves.
s'Are these mates?n he asked, as he
turned them over and scrutinized them
carefully. s'These things both go on
the same hand Where's the thumb of
this off glove2"
s.They are all right" said Mrs. Spoop-
endyke, smoothing them out. Now
they are all ready, and all you have got
to do is to put them on"
Mr.. spoopendyke jabbed his right fist
into the glove and commenced to tug.
ssWhere's the steam derrick that goes
with thisfa he demanded, stopping to
eye his progress with some migivings as
to his ultimate success.
"When you get your hand in, you

behind her Once more, once morep
she whispered. Thirteen came, and the

a soft sigh. Give her air; she has

ment had communicated itself to the
crowd who had gathered and watched.
No more she managed to utter It
was over. The croupier gave her her
money in English bills, 800 each, and
calling carriage she and her friend left
with an enormous fortune made in half
an hour. At the next turn the red lost.
