Dc'roii Free PrGSy.
One day last fall, after talking until his
throat was sore, q Detroit stove dealer
succeeded in selling widow coal stove,
but it was with the proviso that il every
thing didn't work satisfactorily he was to
make 1t. Two days after delivering the
stove he got his first call. A boy entered
the store and said
"AIrs. = wRnts you to come up and
fix that stove. The house Is full Of
smoke"
A man was sent up and found the
trouble to be with the chimney. Only
three or four days had passed when the
boy came in again and said:
"That stove is putting and blowing and
soaring the widow to death, She wants
the same man to come up again"
He was sent, and 1t was discovered that
she didn't know how to arrange the damp
eTs and drafts. Everything seemed to run
we'll for week, aud then the boy walked
in to announce:
"Shs sent me down to have you send
that man up again. The house is full OF
coal gas"
The man went up and applied the
remedy, but inside Of three days the stove
got to putting; two days after that the fire
wouldn't draw; then 1t drew too much;
then gas escaped again. At length the
dealer went to the house and said;
MADAM, you gave me $50 for the stove;
how much will you take for itY"
N wouldn't sell IT,
"But can't be sending my man up here
every two or three days all winter"
you won't have to. I've concluded to
marry him in order 10 have some one here
in case OF accident"
And three days ago they were quietly
and happily married.

The Isnglishwoman of Rank.

The young married Englishwonlan OF
rank is perhaps the best example of her
class. Her position is assured; she is
neither uncertain nor anxious nor eager
now, but entirely at her else; and if her
elevation by marriage has not been too
great or too recent, there is a dignifed
grace that is very captivating. She has
acquired knowledge of the world, has
mixed much with cultivated and i'm
portant men. becomes herself sometimes
a talker or politician; and the choice
specimens are very choice indeed. As 2
class, the English matrons are certainl,
not 50 brilliant as Ameri 'au or French
women of the world; they have less tac-
and suavity, but the rare examples are
equal to those of any race or cline. The
older women sometimes become softer
as they advance in years, and gain q
fascination of manner that compensates
for waning beauty.
The physical clsarins of the English
women, however, do not speedily fade.
The first enchanting grace of girlhood,
of course, is early lost; but the rich
beauty of majority is more sumptuous,
and lasts much longer than with Ameri-
can or Latin women. There is far
greater number of pretty girls in Amer
lea, with a finer delicacy of complexion,
more exquisite symmetry of figure in
the early outlines; but when you find
the full blaze of English beauty it sur
passes the most perfect of the American
type. There are no such rayishing,
sumptuous queens in America as every
now and then you see in England.

Private Schools in Prussia,

Strenuous measures are being taken in
Prussia to limit, AMI even SO far as pos
s;ble to suppress, the whole system of
private education. The educational Of
ficia's make a distinction between "haus-
lehren" domestic tutors and governesses),
"privatleilren" (teacheTs who give pri-
ate iessons), and "privatschullehren"
the keepers of private schools, for board
