'sSee that lady moving along there,
said a gentleman standing in crowd
yesterday afternoon.
The lady to whom the gentleman re-
ferred was handsome, attractive
brunette. She was attired in beauti-
full walking suit of gray silk. and be-
side her was boy of Is years, who
was her only son.
.'There is sensational story about
her." said the gentleman who had
directed the attention of the party to-
And this was tie story story a he told. ID.
The lady is now resident
lanta, and her husband is wrfiA khowff'
as one of the best commercial tourists
of the south. They have been living
in Atlanta only few months. Be-
fore coming to Atlanta their home was
in Augusta. and it was there that the
sensational story about her had tits
origin. And the existence of that
story had much to do with their re-
moval to Atlanta.
just before the recent flood in
Augusta the lady was quite i'll. Her
illness baffied the best physicians of
the city, and upon two OF three oc-
casions her death was momentarily
expected. During all this time the
lady remained perfectly conscious and
freely conyersed with the doctors
about herself. From them she ascer-
tanned that her condition was some
thing new in their profession. One
day, when two of the most eminent
physicians of the city were sitting be-
side her bed, she turned to one, say
ing:
doctor. my case puzzles you all,
doesn't it?'
..It does, indeed" replied the doctor,
"and we have never seen anything
like it before"
ssThen," said the lady, ''my case
would be study after am dead,
would it notp"
What do you mean?" asked the
doctor.
II mean," said the lady, ''that if
you could get my body after | am dead
and study the case medical science
might be benefited.
at would, indeed" replied the
doctor, a bright smile spreading over
his face.
The lady then astonished the two
gentlemen by offering to give them
her body after death. At first the
physicians would not listen to the
proposition, but the lady insisted, and
calling her husband, consulted with
him about the matter in the pres
ence of the doctors. The lady. in
sisted, and finally succeeded in over
riding not only the objection of her
husband, but that of the physicians
who sided with him.
That evening a lawyer was sent for
and deed of gift of her body to the
physicians to be used for scientific
purposes was made out and signed.
After the signing the lady appeared
happier and better than she had for
weeks. On the next day she began to
improve, and in short time aston
ished all by getting well.
After recovering her health she be-
came uneasy about the deed of gift
she had signed, and Notwithstanding
the fact that the deed was returned to
her. finally prevailed upon her hus-
band to move away from Augusta,
saying that she feared her body would
be taken from the grave If she were
buried in that place.
..Since them" said the gentleman in
conclusion, "that lady has holy hor-
ror of doctors. "--AtlantG Constitution.

Fair Trad . l,eteetixes.

The other day, says the Philadelphia
Tunes, two pretty young ladies, both
uaintiiy ufessed entered one of OH.
large dry goods establishments, took
the elevator to the SECOND floor and
the fur department. Here q careful
examination of costly furs resulted in
the selection of sealskin 6elsiiaii.
One Of the ladies opened Her purse.
At that moment The noor-walker step
ped up He was excited and spoke
harshly. 'sPnt that dolman away,
Williams" he said; ..and you," turn.
ing to the purchasers, "leave this store
at once" Astonished and terrified,
they stared helplessly at the man.
Come, get out I tell you," he con-
tinued, Tor I'll have you bounced in
short erder.n The ladies were thought
to be .'pricers." A detective and
several statesmen assisted in their re-
moval to the street. That this was
case of'niistaken identity became pain
fully apparent to the startled firm
few days later. Suit was brought and
IS, 900 was required to settle, in order
to keep che case out of the papers. 1t
transpired that the ladies were the
daughters of wealthy residents of the
city. The incident serves TO show
to what lengths great firms go to de-
tect these ''pficers.
This term .spricer" needs explana-
ton. Some of the most successful
houses in Philadelphia and New. York
keep small book entitled: "Purchas.
ing account" The pages of this brass.
bound little volume are scanned only
by the members of the firm and by the
confidential clerk, who has exclusive
control of this interesting bit OF trade
policy. At the close Of the season the
amounts which '.balance" run nearly
into six figures. These represent dis
bursements for purchasing. for
salaries, carrage-hire, luncheons,
messenger service, and incidentals,
and show credits for goods purchased
from rival houses, ranging from laces,
gloves. hosiery, silks, and satins, to
imported costumes, fur, nantes, brio
a-brac, art embroideries, bronzes, and
other costly articles. Some of the
names of ladies which appear on these
pages opposite heavy purchases also
appear prominently in the social
world. The competition between big
houses is SO keen that the only way
each can keep even with the other is to
employ professional people to 60 from
one to the other and inquire prices
and compare goods. For obvious
reasons the mission of these people is
secret, while their appearance must
be exceptional. 1t would not do for
communicating people to be buying
$500 sacques, 81 silks, and $40 velvets
every few days. Really fashionable
and wealthy people are required for
the delicate service, and strange as il
may seem are readily secured.

A Tank for Drinking Water.

Many methods r suggested to keep

lowing will be found to possess advan-

ten gallon jar and an empty salt barrel,
which can be had for the asking, put suf-
icient dry, well tamped sawdust in the
barrel, so that when the jar is placed
therein it will protrude about n inch
above the barrel. Fill in around the jar
with sawdust and lamp as before, leav-
ing a space of about two inches to be
filled out with cement nicely smoothed
of and sloped, in order that any drip
ping water will be carried over the edge
of the barrel, and your cooler Is COM
pleted in about one-twentieth Of the
time required to make a box, and far
more handy.-Cor. Boston Budget.

Lying beyond st. Andrews, a long
drive from Bridgetown, and occupying
the eastern face Of the northern end of
the island, are a series of remarkably
steep cliffs, that climb out of the sea to a
perpendicular height Of hundreds of feet.
To their bases come along Atlantic swells
that have met no hindrance to their will
for 1900 miles, and these attack this
rocky barrier with a ferceness that gives
to the coast some of the most magnif-
cent sea effects that I lave ever watched.
Even North Irish or Hebridean cliff
surges were but baby play beside them.
Striking with a boom, they mounted
almost to the summit with a green, CLASSY
rush that reminded me of Niagara just
above the fall; then combing into spray,
lashed out greedy fangs of foam at the
locker on, and retreated with a o like
near and heavy thunder.
They followed In quick succession,
each seeming to climb a little higher than
the last, until ones senses were quite up
set by enormous force, and we expert
enced n curious illusion of motion. Land
and wave were waltzing 10 the music OF
of the sea. An internal one, two, three,
one, two, three movement began; solid
rock lost its anchorage, and the world
went round and round until giddiness
came and the steadiest head dragged the
rest away. There was a wild look in
my companions eyes, and she wa half
hysterical when the earth regained Its
senses a little away from the orchestra's
reach.-Dr. William F. Hutchinson In
American Magazine.
