Strawberries OH Toast,

An ex-officer of the British army, who
has spent many years in India and AT.
rica, came to New York and is striving
hard to learn how people in this city act.
He finds a great deal to amuse him in the
way food is served in the restaurants,
and his friends usually enjoy hearty
laugh when he takes dinner with them,
as he seldom fails to see something about
which to make some quaint remark in
expressing his astonishment. A few days
ago this loyal Briton was, as usual, eat
ing dinner, enlarging upon the superior.
ity of things English as compared with
what he had seen here, when, the more
substantial viands having been con.
sumed, one of the party ordered straw.
berry shortcake for dessert. The waiter
filled the order about as promptly as Is
usual in down town restaurants, and the
captain viewed the dish with surprise.
He seemed unable to comprehend it at
first, but before the delicacy had been
eaten he seemed to have solved the prob
lem. Then he surprised those around
him by exclaiming: "By Jove! that must
be nice! Strawberries on toast is queer
dish. though. New York Tribune.

Cremation I'm Paris.

The cremation furnaces in Pere la
Chaise cemetery at Paris are now in
complete working order; and the munich
pal council of the city has, after due de-
liberation, reached decision as to the
scale of charges for the incineration of
the dead in cases where this system may
be preferred to burial Fifty francs is
the tariff. and as the payment of this
small sum gives, in addition to the use
of the furnace, the right of occupying a
shelf in the "columbarium" for five
years, the charge is not in any way ex-
cessive. OF course, the urn required to
contain the ashes OF a cremated person
constitutes an eyrra, as likewise the
pomp to be displayed in cremation, for
which latter item the sum of from
twelve francs 70 200 francs may be
asked. For the simple burning process,
however, and for i've years right to a
shelf in the "columbarium" the price of
a couple of pounds is really low.-Lon-
don Standard.

The Art of Leaving.

Among the minor arts that add much
to the happiness of life is that of leaving
gracefully after you have paid visit.
1t may seem q small thing, but it is real
ly a large one Who does not know the
individual who rises to go and then
stands talking for an hour? And the
host and hostess feel that they must
stand, even if they almost drop with ia
tigue, and when the visitor is finally
gone they give a sigh of relief and sink
into their chairs. Pay your visit, say
what you have to say, and when you get
up to go do not linger by the way. Do
not stand and talk and keep your host
ess standing. You have enjoyed your
visit, and so, probably, has she; go, then,
while the enjoyment lasts and do not
finger until it departs and she wishes you
would do the same. Some wise man has
said that it is better to leave behind you
wish for your company than safety,
or words to that effect.
Men understand this better than wo-
men, and here comes in the advantage
of business training again. They ap-
preciate the value of time more than
women do, and when they have finished
a call they go without the tedious linger-
ing and interchange of commonplaces.-
Miss Palfrey.

more 80 by the halo of haunting romance
that was supposed to hang over the old
mill
Then again, they had been talking Of a
mad-house, and each one had conjectured
the terrors of such an institution so that
their minds were full Of horror, and ready
to receive any new impressions much
more quickly than usual.
Still they showed no new signs Of turn
ing back, and Jack even led them on in
tho direction from whence he thought the
groan had come.
Again it sounded In their ears.
This time his face frightened, for he
saw the hole in tho great chimney, and
striding up to 1t he cried into the oriflce {:
"Hello! where are your"
The answer came Immediately, and yet
was so muffled that they could hardly
distinguish it,
"In the chimney. For Heavens sake.
get me out quick; I believe am dying"
There was but one way to accomplish
this; Jack realized the fact at once.
He handed the lamp to the little widow
and replaced his revolver, feeling that he
would have no occasion to use it, at least
for the present.
Then he commenced enlarging the ori-
flee by tearing down the brick, always
working downward.
Sometimes he had difficult work, but in
the end he always succeeded in his task
and the result was that at the end of ten
or fifteen minutes he had cleared the way
to within foot or so of the ground.
Then stepping In, he bent down and
raised the form Of tho foreign detective in
his stout arms.
When he had laid him on the floor of
the mill, he bent over to examine The
mans ghastly wounds.
"Who did this foul deed?" he asked in
horror.

A Live Rattlesnake in a Depot.

A colored waiter in the new Central
Railroad depot restaurant in Jersey City
saw rattlesnake crawling along the
floor near party of ladies. He yelled
''Snakes!" and the ladies ran out into the
car shed screaming. The waiter had an
armful of Dishes AS the snake was
heading for him he dropped the dishes
and ran. Two men who had been eating
at the llalch counter followed him. One
of the ladies who had run out told John
Van Pelt, a conductor. about the snake.
Van Pelt got stick and friend of his
got another, and they went into the res
taurant Half a dozen walters, q cook
and three passengers were sitting on the
lunch counter. They were freed. The
snake was crawling toward the door,
shaking its rattle savagely. Van Pelt
and his friend made combined attack.
Van Pelts stick was pointed, and he
speared the snake through the neck, pin
ming it to the floor. The other man beat
the reptile to death. Then the walters
and cook and passengers came down
from the counter. The snake was about
two feet long. 1t had four rattles. How
it got into the depot is a mystery. Pos
sibly it had been shipped as freight, and
had in some way escaped from confine-
ment.-New York Sun.

Civil Lists.

The civil list of the United Kingdom
amounts to e3S5. 900; the revenue Of the
duchy of Lancaster amounts approxi-
mately to 100000. making a total Of
e445 900. To this sum may be added the
income of the Prince of Wales-annuity
e40,000 and 100000 from the duchy of
Cornwall-and annuities to the other
members of the royal family making
grand total of e6S5. 1000. In Austria the
civil list is e7S0, 1000, and the emperor has
private fortune which probably brings
him as much. In Germany the emperor
as king of Prussia has q civil list Of
e670, 900, and besides has large domains,
the revenues of which enable him to
provide for all the princes and princesses
of his house. The crown prince Is en-
titled to e50,0O0 per annum from the
country. In Italy the civil list of the
king is over 100000. The revenue OF
the car is probably as great as those Of
the other sovereigns combined.-London

"Black Hends,"

A correspondent much troubled with
"black heads" asks for n lotion. They
should be pressed out either with the
thumb nails or watch key. The opera
ton is likely to cause some congestion OF
the skin, hence the face should be bathed
with water as hot as can be borne. As
a rule, those who have "black heads"
are sparing of the use Of soap, which
ought to be used quite freely by them.
Ladies who object to it might use, in.
stead, borax water, or water to which
bran is added. Twice daily the follow
ing lotion may be applied: Ether, one
ounce; carbonate of ammonia, one
drachm; boracic acid, one scruple; water
sufficient to make two ounces. This
should be applied after the "black heads"
have been pressed out and the face has
been bathed in hot water.-Boston Her

she felt that, when the sun went down
that day, it would have witnessed their
parting forever, never again to meet, ex-
cept as the most distant strangers.
When she left the mill she wended her
way slowly through the forest to fav-
orite spot of hers, and. reaching it, sat
down at the base of a huge elm tree. 1t
was the summit of quito an elevation,
and the view on either hand was perfectly
grand, embracing, as it did, so many
vistas where openings occurred, through
which the eye ranged far away to the
river, and to still greater elevation.
Alone with her thoughts she was accus-
toned to seeking this spot, and it seemed
as if her very surroundings gave her COM
fort, yet nothing could ease the terrible
pain that tugged at her heart-strings.
She held book in her hand, but it did
not occupy her attention, for her gaze was
far away, and her mind evidently upon
the one subject nearest her heart.
Thus she sat, when the eager eyes Of
an approaching man fell upon her, and
the spectacle brought him to a sudden
pause. There was that In her attitude
that brought most vividly to his mind
their first meeting, when she sat by the
brook, with a copy OF Tennyson in her
lap, watching tho gambols of a little dog;
and, as he gazed, Roger stihed a groan
Of despair.
1t was terrible to see his life look so
dark before him, when he had fought
against it so-terrible to have all his no.
Bile aims and purposes, together with his
life's happiness, buried in one common
grave by the evil deeds of one with whom
he was not even connected, save by fam
lily ties.
Still he had already gone over all this
field, and there could no good come of
fighting the battle over again.
If Carol had declared that, so long as
Nora lived, they would be nothing but
friends. he would keep his part Of the
compact manfully, and try to hide from
her the fact that his great love was
slowly, but surely, killing him.
All little did the poor follow suspect
what evil influences had been at work
since he had parted from the one he
loved, or what terrible reception he was
about to receive.
Recovering himself, therefore, he
strobe forward.

been enough to have entirely crushed
her.
At the time she did not remember that
her mother and herself had seen Capt.
Grant, or some one closely resembling
him, leave the mill on the previous night
some time between the hour when Nora
Warner was carried off by her jailers and
daybreak.
All she could think of was this one
fact, that besides being guilty Of all those
other misdeeds, her Roger was not only
a murderer at heart, but was in q fair
way to become one in fact, for the un-
fortunate man upon the mill floor looked
as though he were dying.
When her eyes rested upon those gaping
knife wounds in his breast, Carol did not
faint, but terrible revolution of feeling
swept over her in reference to her lover.
Whatever he may have seemed to her,
it was now plainly evident that he was q
villain of the deepest dye, and her heart
was like lead when this conviction came
to her and she realized that she must
give him up-must send him from her as
if he were leper, with the scathing
words the case demanded.
Her heart was now steeled against
Roger, and at their next meeting she
must let him know that he could not
even call her friend.
While Carol was thus thinking upon
the matter and deciding as to he~future
plans, Jack was examining the wounds
Of the detective.
"My man," said he finally, "you shall
live, aye, live for vengeance on the fiend
whose hand struck those cowardly
blows"
The face of the detective lighted up
and fierce gleam came into his eyes, for
he would ask nothing better on earth
than this.
Gently raising him, Jack carried the
poor man into the habitable part of the
building, and laid him upon the blankets
prepared for him by the widow. Then he
proceeded to dress the wounds, and the
skill he exercised in this proved him to be
young physician of more than ordinary
talents, which was In fact the truth, for
Jack was a graduate of Heidelberg, in
Germany.
He had case of remedies with him,
and before leaving the old mill on his
search for lost Nora, he left the medicines
to be used in the hands of Carols mother.
The detective possessed magnificent
constitution, and his wounds were not
fatal so that he was in fair way for
speedy recovery, being in excellent hands.
Besides that, the burning desire for re-
venge upon the man who had dealt him
such cowardly blow, was enough of an
incentive tokeep him alive, for it brought
his will into play.

The man whispered in reply, for he was
weak and almost dying. Jack uttered
smothered curse, and, gaining his feet,
cried in q voice that froze Carol with hor-
ror:

forever. He Is one of Satan's fiends, and
