The Architect and the Devil.


All over the north of Europe the
greatest aversion is felt to be tine first
to enter Il new building or go over a
newly built bridge. If to do this is
not thought everywhere and in all
cases to entail death, it is considered
supremely unlucky. Several German
legends are connected with this sup.
erstition. The reader, if he has been
to Aixla- Chapelle, has doubtless had
the rift in the great door pointed out
to him, and has been told how it came
there. The devil and the architect
made a compact that the first should
supply the plans and the second gain
the kudos; and the DEVILS pay was to
be the first who crossed the threshold
when the church was built. When
the building was nearly complete the
architects conscience smOte him, and
he confessed the compact to the Bish.
op. we'll do him." said the prelate;
that is to say, he said something to
this effect in terms more appropriate
to the century in which he lived and
to his high ecclesiastical office. When
the procession formed to enter the
minister for the conservation the
devil lurked in ambush behind pill
lar, and fixed his wicked eye on a fine
fat and succulent little chor,ster as
his destined prey. But, alas! for his
hopes! this fat little boy had been
given his instructions, and, al he
neared the great door. loosed the
chain of wolf and sent it through.
The Evil One uttered howl OF rage,
snatched up the wolf, and rushed
away, giving the door q kick as he
passed it that split the solid oak.

Two Stories of Congressman
Pettigrew.

1 heard two good stories to-day of
Pettigrew, of South Carolina, the
great lawyer and Unionist, which l
had never heard before. He was
practlcing at one time before q Judge
who was a Presbyterian of the
straishtest sect and g. very hard
working officer. 1t came to be Maun-
day Thursday, and Pettigrew and the
Episcopalians and Roman Catholics
thought they would like an adjonrns
ment OF court over Good Friday.
Pettigrew was selected to make the
motion. "Your honor" he said, II
desire to move that the court ad.

said Pettigrew, "to.morrow is Good
Friday, and some of us would like to

decidedly, after moments thought,

usual" Every well, your honor"
replied Pettigrew. adding, as he turned
away, II know there is a precedent.

The same judge was great stickler
for etiquette, and when one hot July
day Pettigrew came into the court
room in black coat and yellow
nankeen trousers the judge took HIM
sternly to task. asking him whether
he did not know that the rules OF that
court required it's counselors to ap.

black coat and trousers means that
both shall be black. '"Then," said
Pettigrew, II call your honor's
attention to the fact that the
sheriff Of this court is in
contempt of it's rules, for they require
him to attend upon its sessions in a
cooked hat and sword, and while his
hat seems to be cooked his sword GER

more about the trousers.-Philadel.

"Why, how strange she is!'' exclaim-
ed Barbara. Ibid you notice how
queenly she acted, Ralph?"
"She was always strange" answered
the husband, who was busy just then
sorting some other prints. "All these
rich ladies have queer manners, but
she has been a good friend to me-"
They never saw her again. She was
too proud to remain in the city, and
soon they learned that she had made
Paris her home. BY and by there
came a letter from her to Barbara, a
letter full Of love and tenderness, ask
ing kindly after her husbands success
and fame. So she did not forget
them. And they spoke often of her
and the old time, and one twilight
evening Ralph told his wife of what had
passed between them at that time:
II cannot blame her; how can l,
Ralph?" murmurcd Barbara, kissing
him fondly on the lips. "And can
hardly believe that you did not love
her just little" with a roguish look
in her eyes. 81 do hope she is not un-
happy. 1t would hardly seem right
for us to be so happy if she were mis-
erable."
And ever. after from that night there
went up q prayer from the heart OF
the wife for the welfare of the imperial
beauty whose heart wasso sad among
the gayeties and splendors OF the city OF
the world. There was no jealousy i'll
that innocent, happy heart, and when,
few months later, u littlegolden-h haired
daughter came to bless the married
pair, it was Barbara who named the
