A SOCIETY DRAMA.
How Gladys de Montmorency Worked G
Scheme Upon the Count.

How Gladys de Montmorency Worked a
Scheme Upon the Count.
$50, count, you desire to marry my dangh-
These words came from the lips of Reginald
de MontmOrency the millionaire banker, as
he stood in the sumptuously furnished parlor
of his mansion on G-st., facing distinguished
gentleman OF foreign appearance The latter
fervently replied:
'Yes, yes, do"
"Tll let you know my decision by toby the
way, count, my daughter and have arranged
for little supper at Orsmbys cafe this even
ing: Will you join us"'
with pleasure
Gladys de Montmorency reclined on an ex-
cellently upholstered ottoman in a boudoir,
the furnishing of which must have cost good
deal of money.
There was far-away look in her eve: there
was faraway look in her other eye
She was thinking of one who was dearer to
her than life. She was thinking of the splen-
did Count Bologni, with his lustrous Italian
eyes, and of the excellent chewing-gum he had
given her.
She was summoned to the library where
her father, the opulent banker, stroked her
silken hair and said:
"Gladys, the count has asked for your
hand"
That's business, father; there are no flies
Are you sure, my daughter, that he is your
kind of peOple?'
dead sure
Because my child" and his voice grew
tremulous with emotion, 'because | fear me
much that he is not count at all. Methinks
that when l was erstwhile at Omaha | saw him
as waiter in a restaurant. Ny child o, my
child These gray hairs would indeed go in
sorrow to the grave-this old heart would be
rended in twain if | were to see you in the
SOUP"
The lovely girl IS breath camein gasps; twined
her beautiful arms about his neck and whis-
pered:
"What are we going to do about it ?"
'Harken," her father replied: Il have
schene-number 207; series d. Well take
supper with him this evening, and I'll put
him to crucial test. Until then let us abide
in peace. Kiss me again, my angelic child"
III
Myriads of lights were cleaning in Ormsby's
magnificent cafe when Mr.. de Montmorency
entered with Gladys on his arm, queenly in
her beauty and grace.
The count was already there, and the three
sat down to a table together.
"What no, waiter Come hitherl"
This stern command from Mr.. de Montmor-
ency was instantly Obeyed
The waiter came to the table.
Gladys could feel the color leave her cheeks.
She knew that the moment for the great test
had come.
Even the stern lips of her father quivered,
and the cold perspiration was on his brow as he
said
Count, my daughter and | only care for a
steak and cup of coffee Will you order for
us?"
The count rose from his chair, and his ring
ing voice could be heard throughout the vast
room as he said:
Slaughter in the pan and draw one in the
dark twice"
".
Reader, there is but little more to add.
Crushed and broken, Gladys retired to con-
vent to end her life in quiet and solitude.
The count left for his native country ON foot,
but haystack in which he was sleeping one
night took fire and he perished in the flames.

A SUMMER GIRL.

She wears a saucy hat
And her feet go pit-a-pat
AS she walks;>
And the sweetest music slips
From her merry madding lips
When she talks.
She fascinates the street
With her CATERS trim and neat.
Made of kid;
For they twinkle as they pass
Like the rillets in the grass
Halfway hid.
Her skin is soft and white,
Like magnolia buds at night
On the bough;
But for fear she'd be too fair
There's a freckle here and there
On her brow.
Dimples play at hide-and-seek
On her apple-blossom cheek
And her chin.
Slyly beckOning to you.
Don't you think it's time to WOO?
Pray begin"
Then her winsome, witching eyes
Flash like bits of summer skies
Ger her fan,
As if to say, "We've met:
You may go now and forget
If you can."

PRETTY HOSIERY.
A Chat About Things Dear to the Femi-
nine Heart

In nothing does the truly feminine soul so
delight as in pretty hosiery.
"Gloves and stockings are my weakness
frankly confesses one of the most exquisite
of women. Il will get on with three gowns
year, but must have well-fitting gloves and
pretty stockings"
And so she has. Nothing comes in the way
of dainty novelty in this line that she does not
add to her already generous store. In her en-
thusiasm she might almost be classed as col
lector of this special line of womanly adorn
ment She is only one of class. although
she may be little extreme.
1T costs me more. in proportion for my
boots stockings and gloves than it does for the
larger articles of my wardrobe, said work
ing girl, the other day. Il can scrimp in some
things, but not in these"
And so it goes The young beauty with an
unlimited purse, the girl with the moderate in
come and she who works for all she has, have
one taste, one idiosyncrasy, in common-the
desire for well-ftting gloves and boots and pref
ty stockings.
And every one of these finds something that
is suited to her purse, that both her taste, and
Judgment, and fashions DEGREES alike approve;
for there's fashion in stockings as in bonnets.
and it is just as arbitrary.
How Mortified well-dressed woman would
have felt quarter of a century ago had 1t been
proposed to her that she should wear a colored
stocking! She would have considered that
illness had been outraged. Nothing was adj
missible but a pure white stocking, one on
which not even speck of dust should be seen.
Fine and immaculate, and sunny white, this
was what the swinging skirt must show if, in
advertently, the ankle was exposed to view.
The first innovation came with the cream
tinted balbriggans, finished so finely that the
surface had silken look. These held their
own for long time. Then came Introductory
stripes of color on the cream-white, these
stripes being very narrow, hardly more than a
hair-line while the white stripe was very
broad. By degrees the stripes widened and
the color deepened until, almost before the
women were aware of it, they were wearing
stockings of a solid color, and admiring them,
too, immensely.
Pale blue, pale rose and soft French gray
were the first innovations; then came scarlet,
navy-blue, and seal-brown; and. by-and-by,
all these colors deepened into black, which
took the place as the proper color for every
day wear Now, the black stocking seems to
have firm hold upon the affections of the
wearers, as white had few years ago. 1t is
the exception when a woman is seen in any
thing but a black stocking in the street or at
home in the morning.

VELOCITY OF LIGHT.

In sixteen Minutes 1t Traverses tho d.
ameter of the Earth's Orbit.
Light moves with the amazing We
locity of one hundred and eighty-five
thousand miles a second, q speed a
million times as great as that OF a
rife-bullet. 1t would make the circuit
of the earth's circumference, at the
equator, seven times in one beat of the
pendulum.
For long time light was thought to
be instantaneous, but it is now known
to have a measurable velocity. The
discovery was first made by means of
the eclipses of Jupiter's satellites.
Jupiter, like the earth. casts a
shadow, and when his moons pass
through it, they are eclipsed, just as
our moon is eclipsed when passing
through the earth's shadow. Jupiter s
shadow far surpasses in magnitude
that of the earth. His moons revolve
around him much more rapidly than
our moon revolves around the earth,
and their orbits are nearly in the plane
of the planets orbit. Consequently
they all, with the exception of the
fourth and most distant satellite, pass
through the planets shadow and are
eclipsed at every revolution.
Roemer, Danish astronomer, made
in 1915 some curious observations in
regard to the times of the occurrence
of these eclipses. When Jupiter is
nearest the earth, the eclipses occur
about sixteen miSutes earlier than
when he is most distant from the earth.
The difference in distance between the
two points is about one hundred and
eighty-fiye million miles, the diameter
of the earth's orbit, or twice her
distance from the sun.
1t takes light, therefore, sixteen min
utes to traverse the diameter of the
earth orbit, and half that time to span
the distance between the sun and the
earth. Light is thus shown to travel
one hundred and eighty-fve thousand
miles in a second, and to take eight
minutes-or more exactly, five hundred
seconds Sin coming from the sun to the
earth.
1t follows that we do not see the sun
until eight minutes after sunrise, and
that we do see him eight minutes after
sunset. When we look at star we do
not see the star as it now is, but the
star as it was several years ago. II
takes light three years to come to us
from the nearest star, and were it sud
denly blotted from the sky, We should
see it shining there for three years to
come.
There are other methods of finding
| the velocity of light, hut the satellites
of Jupiter first revealed its progress.

ABOUT SUNDAY WORK.
The Question Considered from Strict
Physiological Standpoint.

Physiological Standpoint.
The question Of Sunday work has, OF
course, moral side. and it is that side
which most strongly influences many
who are striving to lessen the evil.
Psychologists are universally agreed
that men need, for purely physiological
reasons. one days rest out OF the seven.
There is plenty of evidence upon this
question, all pointing in the same
direction, and the conclusion is newt
able that the almost universal desire Of
workmen for rest on Sunday, and
their strong objection to working con-
tinuously every day, is the result of a
natural physiological law, which, like
all other laws of the kind, can not be
violated without some one having to
suffer the penalty. There is good
reason for believing that many rail-
road accidents are directly traceable to
physical and mental exhaustion Of
train-men caused by the strain OF
severe and exacting duties, performed
without relaxation for a period of time
beyond that which is allowed by ma
ture. And in the case of street rail
way employees. who are required to
work from twelve to sixteen hours
every day, Sundays included. it is
probable that society suffers, and will
suffer, a large share of the penalty.
For the presence in the community OF
a considerable body Of men to whom
civilization means almost, if not quite,
nothing, upon whom society has inn
posed burdens almost intOlerable and
infinitely heavier thai are imposed by
nature as a condition of living-we say
that the presence of a body of men
living under such conditions is a
menace and da,>ger to republican in
situations. MachiRist.

PATENT POSTAL BOX.
An Ingenious Invention Exhibited la Me
bourne, Australia.

An Ingenious Invention Exhibited la Mel
bourne, Australia.
A patent postal pillar box of an in
genious character has been exhibited
at the Athen9um Club, Melbourne.
The box is octagonal in shape and
stands seven feet in height, having a
diameter of about two feet. and it has
three divisions. The top one contains
a series of compartments, in which there
are police and fire alarms, the former
being communicated with by means of
a telephone, while the fire brigade is
appraised of an outbreak of fire in the
locality by the pressure of an electric
button. The central division, which is
the largest, is devoted to the reception
of letters and newspapers. the ordinary
slot or opening through which the let
tiers are placed being covered with a
wire comb to prevent the letters being
extracted by the insertion of thin sticks
or pieces of wire.
The letters fall into an iron box which
is fastened on to the door, and when it
is desired to clear the box all that the
postman has to do is to touch a spring,
which causes the bottom of the box to
fall, ana this allows the letters to drop
into the open bag underneath. There
is dial Immediately above the door
denoting the times at which the box is
cleared. and on the door being closed
the hand on the dial indicates at what
time the next clearance will take place.
The bottom division is reserved for the
batteries used in connection with the
police telephone and fire alarms, and
on top of the roof an electrical lamp is
affixed. Sydney Herald.
