have only q recollection of having seen her
five or six times on the arm of De Musset.
masquerading as q man, in tho theatres, at
Tortoni's or o. the boulevards. 1t was in
such a dress that Eugene Delacroix painted
her; but the art of the painter softened what
was grotesque; the melancholy expression,
the "vagueness' Of the costume were not
fatal to all illusion. In reality this me0 iikin,
aping rakishness, mounted in boots, with a
farillg red necktie, In stays and furbelows,
cane i'll one hand, glass in eye and cigar in
mouth-it was worse than grotesque; it was
pitiable. l am glad that I never knew but

Calamatta has painted her, with two puffs
Of hair on each side of the face.
Serious, dreamy, she scarcely took part in
the conversation. Beside her armchair was
a species Of altar upon which was arranged
On apparatus for cigarette smoking, with a
lighted candle; the idol disappeared behind
q cloud of tobacco smoke. She said little,
and scarcely answered; her answers were
sometimes not pleasing, but this was due not
to ill humor, but to distraction, for she was
naturally polite and knew show to live"
Ono night at Buloz's house. Mime. Reybaud,
the author, was presented to her and at onco
went in e~cstasies over the works of genius
which George Sand had given to the world,
recitirg the whole category. George Sand
listened silent and unmoved. At last, when
something had to be said : II am sorry,

turn these compliments, never having had

An Undesirable Tenant.

We hear a good deal about the selfshness
and inhumanity of landlords who refuse to
let fats to people with families of children,
but after all there may be another side to
the story. In a house agents Office l listened
to All argument between the agent and a wo-
man who wanted to rent a flat from him.
1t was q flat that l happened to know, in a
quiet house, filled with nice people. While
the argument was going on, another house
agent came i'll on some business OF other, and
when he saw the woman beckoned his brother
agent away from her, whispered something
to him and went of. Tho woman did not
get her lease and went away in high dud-
geon. The agent said to me:
THAT is a sample of the people who write
to the papers about landlords who won't let
fats to people with families. Brown, who
was just in, rented her a fiat. She is living
III it yet, but must move by tho LIST. 1t Is q
six rUolned fiat, and in it she and her sister
live, with their two husbands, eleven chill

WARpER,s SafE Cure.
Power of Music,

AO"OA VI AAAcANS
The Spanish and Indian Californians were
p~assionately fond Of music. All the men
could make shoes and play tho guitar; and
every woman could sing Spanish songs to her
own accompaniment. Bancroft, in his zeal
ifornia Pastoral" tells how the people. after
the conquest Of the country by the United
States, were %reconciled to the new rule by
music. a.
The Californians were invited to return to
their homes, and resume their usual occupa-
tiona. Proclamations which promised pro-
lection Of their persons and property were
placarded in the towns; but they would not
come out Of their hiding places. The COM
modore whose naval force had helped to con-
quer the country was at Los Angeles, and,
meeting Capt. Phelps, an old trader on the
coast requested his help.
"Commodore," replied the captain, "you
have a fine band on your ship, and such O
thing was never before in this country. Let
it play nj hour in the plaza each day at sun
set, and I assure you it will do more toward
reconciling the people than all your procla-
nations, which few Of them can read"
The captains suggestion was adopted. At
first the children came forth, and peeped
round tho corners of the houses. A few lively
tunes brought out the vivas of the elder ones,
and before the band ceased playing they were
surrounded by delighted natives.
The next afternoon the plaza was thronged
with the people Of the town and with ranch
men from a distance, who, having heard Of
the wonderful band, had ridden in. The old
priest OF the mission Of San Gabriel, as he sat
by the church door opposite the plaza, listen
ing to the music, was introduced to several
Of the naval officers.
II ave not heard q band," said the old
man, 'since left Spain, over fifty years ago
All! that music will do more service in the
conquest of California thar a thousand bay
onets."-Youth's Companion.

A society GArl'e Bric-a-Rrac.

But the room Of a society girl whose name
I could mention, but may not. The odd
things upon the walls and lying scattered
about are a wonderful mystery to the unini-
tiated. A variety Of cigars suspended from
the mantel by different hued ribbons, or q
bunch Of cigarettes attached to q picture
frame by means Of q huge ribbon bow, these
are eaaiv known for what they are; but q
pretty little box on the toilet table, with tho
inscriptions: "Cremated July II, 1887 calls
for many q guess. The open lid discloses q
heap Of gray ashes, with another inscription:
''Mount Desert, July II, 81" It is the ashes
Of a cigar smoked by the fair owner during
a mild Irritation Of tho last season. A parcel
Of canes, trophies Vol in fencing matches,
occupies a prominent wall space, and a velvet
PLAGUE mounted with pipes Of all kinds,
from common clay through cob and briar-
wood to meerschaum, are souvenirs of gentle
men friends. All sorts Of riding whips rise
like cat tails from a large vase, a pair Of oars
marked isles Of Shoals" are crossed over
the door. and q genuine fishnet is draped
over a piece Of statuary. These are quite
common souvenirs Of vacation delights and
tender recollections, but many Of the girls
vie with each other in collecting oddities
One Of them exhibits a tiny japanese bowl
dlled with shining objects OF ivory white
ness. @

Apparatus for Coolinc Air.

An apparatus has been introduced in the
Standard theatre, of New York city, which
in a very simple way is designed to solve the
problem of securing a cool auditorium in
summer. A fan is placed in the basement
which draws air from outside the building
and delivers it through the furnace pipes
and registers to various parts Of the audi
forum. The mir before it reaches the fan is
drawn over ice arranged on shelves. This
cools it so that a temperature of 20 degs. is
easily a%ttainable. While the fan situated in
the basement is delivering cool air, a second
fan on the roof exhausts air from the inte-
rior, thus maintaining q constant change Of
atmosphere. Tho arrangement in utilizing
the furnace connections and i'll general detail
is remarkably simple, and could be readily
applied to many places, such is hospitals,
where GOODNESS is all important. For u Single
evenings work about two tons of ice arc az.
pended.-Scicntific American.

Sone Long Lived Seeds.

A singular fact can be observed 1T the cor
ner of Commerce and jackson streets, at
Albany. The ground from over which I'M
old building has been but lately removed is
covered with a dense growth of coffee weeds.
The seed or coffee beans could not have been
thrown or blown. there since the house WA
removed, as it was about January when it
was torn down, and no seed have matured
since. Tho only solution Of it is that the
seed dropped o n the ground thirty years
ago before the house was erected. and with
out the sunlight and moisture, have lain
dormant until the house was removed. when
conditions favorable to termination quick
ened the ancient seed into life.-Savannah
