Why She Took the Paper.

81 should like to show you q paper
which L have" remarked a spruce
young man in q o-doubt-you'l l-be-glad-
so-see-me tone to the lackadaisical
young lady who responded to his ring.
"Agent?" she replied.
Yes"
The young lady turned on her heel
and walked toward the inner depart
ment. He hardly knew whether to con-
slder this an invitation or not, but you
don't have to drag an agent in to con-
stitute an invitytion in his mind, so he
entered.
Our paper" he began enthusiastic
cally, at the same time drawing a copy
from his pocket, contains short stories,
anecdotes and descriptive articles. We
have the best serial stories that can be
procured. All the most celebrated nov
elists are engaged to write for us the
coming year. Our poetry is unsur-
passed, and there is no poet of eminence
but Will be represented in our columns
during the year. We have engaged Al
fred Tennyson to contribute q poem
every week at q cost of S13, 200 each.
We shall print during the year seven
unpublished poems found among the
papers of the late lamented Henry w.
Longfellow. In fact, no one possessed
of literary taste can afford to be with
out our paper"
',Yes?" said the young lady. inquir-
ingly.
Our paper" he continued, twas
started only six years ago, but since
that time it has reached an unparalleled
circulation solely through its intrinsic
merit. We employ but few agents, and
those the most reliable, high-minded
young men that we can find. At the
present rate of increase our circulation
at the end of next year will be reckoned
among the millions. Our attractions
for the coming year are LUMINOSITY
grand. superbly magnificent and en-
tirely unequaled, and all for three dol
lars per year. Of course, no beautiful,
accomplished young lady like yourself
would think of being without it. l shall
take your order for one year, shall
not?"
WELL" she murmured refiectiyely,
half to herself, 1.-THE paper is a good
sized one, and bustles are coming into
fashion again, don't know but what
you may. My name is Agnes De We'll

on the sofa and wondered if dinner was
