ALTHOUGH it is dangerous to have
too much knowledge Of certain SUBJ
jects, it is still more dangerous to be to-
tally ignorant of them.

was on the verge of losing it now; and
Madge, all unconscious of the commo-
ton she was causing in one breast, sang
herself more and more into his heart.
AS she finished, she saw thrown from
one of the boxes little bud which fell
at her feet. She glanced up, smiled,
bowed, and withdrew.
The papers next day rang with her
praises. Her name was on every
tongue. Dinners and receptions were
planned in her honor. She became
the rage. Meanwhile, George Courte-
nav had gone to Bertoni, who told
him the circumstances of the case, and
he left convinced that he was right,
and with a determination to make the
singers acquaintance; but how, ne did
not know. Fortune favored him, how
ever, for upon reaching home he found
an invitation to reception from one
of his old friends, to be given in honor
Of Miss Bronson.
Already he saw himself at her feet,
telling his love. The thought that ne
might not be successful never entered
his mind. Our friend George had his
share of conceit, but with it all he car
ried noble heart.
II seemed to him as if the evening
would never come; but it finally ar
rived and found him, in faultless at
tire, paying his respects to the host
and hostess, whereupon he was pre-
sented to the honored guest, MISS
Bronson. A.
Madge felt sure she had seen the
vonne man before, but where she
could not tell. Her heart gave little
fiutter as she noticed his look OF ad-

The appropriation made by Allegheny
Councils for commencing the long-neglected
work of improving Seminary Hill, on
which is erected the Soldiers monument,
will be used in making driveway up the
hill, and roadways around the top. The
driveway will be up the north side, and
will come down into English street. The
drives win be paved with asphalt block.
The work is in charge of City Engineer
Ahlers, of Allegheny.
A few facts concerning the monument
will be of interest to those who do not know
all about it. In 1868 the funds for the pdr-
pose of building the monument were raised
among the people of Allegheny county,
through the efforts Of veterans Of the Rebel
lion.
The monument cost nearly $50, 900. Soon
arose the question of where to place the
structure. It was decided by vote OF the
county to place it on Seminary Hill, the city of
Allegheny promising to improve the hill and
keep it in good condition.
BY the action of Councils these long forgot
ten promises will be redeemed, the top Of
Seminary Hill will become accessible, people Of
our own vicinity who have never seen the mon
ument except from distance will find pleasure
in taking the trip up to it. visitors will be able
to inspect it at close range as one Of the points
of interest of the city and the hill will become
a pleasant resort in summer.
By bill passed by the Assembly some years
ago the County Commissioners were directed
to see that the monument itself was kept in
good condition. 1t seems that this work has
attention very much. Some action will soon be
taken in this matter

the Biiou Theater has been so called since the

idea is being overworked it looks as if this

such trihes.
OF course the stories ABOUT Mr.. Booth treat
