p the question.

1t was seven long years since Jonas
Harris had begun to "keep company
with Miss Hannah Bell. and yet in all
that time he had not mustered courage
to propose u certain question. His
house was lonely and waiting; hers was
lonely enough to be vacated, and Jonas
could not bring himself to speak the
decisive words. Many a timo he had
walked up to her door with the courage
of a lion, only to fluid himself a very
nous when she appeared.
He had never failed in dropping in
to cheer her loneliness on Christmas
evening, and this year he presented
himself as usual. The hearth was
swept. tho fire burned brightly and
Miss Hannah was adorned with smiles
and Il red bow.
Conversation went serenely on for
an hour or so, and then, when they
both sat pairing ~rcd-cheekcd apples
with great contentment, Jonas began
to call upon his recollections.
"It's a good many years, amt it,
Hannah, since you and l first sot here

br;skly.
This was a blow indeed, and Jonas
felt it.
"Whcrc" he gaspcd.
"Oh, l don't Know she returned,

''But there wouldn't be anybody ovcl

"Muybe could get it MYSELF

Jonas, his eyes beginning to sparkle.
"But there wouldn't be anybody tc

AT that moment Jonas plate fell be.

broke in two, but neither of then

Department Red Tame.

Washington Post: An ex congressman
from Pennsylvania desired the appoint
mcnt of a chaplain at u post where there
was a vacancy. He sent a number of
communications to the department, and
would receive a reply to each dated
from two weeks to a month after ii had
been received. On Saturday he arrived
to look after it personally. On going to
a friend, a member of congress, the lat
ter promised to write to the department,
and added his Endorsement.
"When do you think you will hea
from itY' added the ex member.
ooh, in about ten days" he replied.
"Not any sooner than that, when it
wouldn't take five minutes to dictate a
reply2'
Il hardly think &C." replied the mem
Der with the air Of a man who knew.
The magnificent system which they
have prevents any such reckless haste as
answering a communication within a
week. If you send an important mes.
sage there by a special messenger, You
will get al answer in about two weeks.
If you send it by a riding page, without
special instructions. you will hear from
it probably within ten days. If sent by
mail. with a line or so in the letter indi.
eating that you don't care whether you
ever get o reply, it will be rushed back
at the end Of a week"

the troughs is covered with iron plates,
on which is spread q thin layer Of

A MilIiuer's Mistake.

Not far from Twenty-third street on
Fifth avenue, there is 6 clever little shop
where, some of the prettiest girls in New
York are in the habit Of asserting, are to
be found some of the prettiest bonnets in
town, says the New York Wsrld. To
the magic windows of this shop there
were drawn one day two we'll dressed
women, n young and one old. AS they
hesitated for that moment which marks
the women who are to be the last the
first assistant spider whispered two
words of warning to the woman of bust
ness. The two women, chattering OF
the bonnet which had attracted their at.
%tention, entered. Out flew madame, dis
turbed and voluble.
go away!' she cried, Il want you to
go right awayl'
The two charming women looked over
their shoulders to see the unfortunate
person whom madame was scolding.
1--WE would like to see the bonnet in
the window, if you please" said the elder
lady with a concillatory smile. II would
like to try it On"
Madame, only talking before, now be.
gan with uplifted hands to fairly shoe
the ladies from the door.
go away; go right away. am
bothered to death with such as you. Go
right away this minute. l should think
you'd be ashamed"
With heads erect and flaming checks
the ladies departed, understanding at last
that it was really they were meant.
With rapid hands madame whipped the
bonnet from the window, pressing it like
a lost infant into the arms of the gasping
first assistant.
why. madam!" she cried. "Why did
you treat them SOY
Treat them! Did you not say Of
yourself they were two milliners come to
steal my Styles
"Oh. madam! | said two mlllionaires.'
1t was Mrs. Crocket and Miss Amy
Croker, of California
AS might be expected, that same little
shop, just between one woman and an.
other, is now a pretty good place to visit.
The lofty and the lowly are alike re
ceiyed with open arms, and conn
speed the parting guest. Madam Is n
a true democrat in principle as well as a
perfect milliner, and she who comes to
look is at least invited to stay and look
some more.

The A,dean Lama and Ills cartous and
Interesting Habits.

As tho camel is to the people of the
deserts of Asia and Africa, so is the
llama to those who dwell in the andes,
u faithful, patient. and enduring beast.
without which The inhabitants wonld
he utterly helpless. for mules and
horses can neither survive tho climate
nor climb the mountain trails.
But the llamas Il sees in Bolivia,
SAYS n writeri in the YOUTHS Companion,
arc as much unlike the animals shown
in the geological garden rs the tiger in
the jungles of Indiais unlike his anne
sake that growls in u circus cage.
Their bodies are covered with a soft,
thick gray wool like that of the merino
sheep, their giratfc-like necks are
proudly and gracefully curved, their
eyes are large. lustrous, intelligent,
and have au expression of constant in
quiry.
Their cars are shapely, aud culver
continually like those of a h~igh-mcttled
stallion, as if to catch the first sound
of approaching danger.
The llama is to mo the most fasci.
mating study. While hu is docilc.
obedient, and enduring. there is al
ways an air of suspicion or distrust
| about him, and a silent dignity that
| forbids an intimate acquaintance.
He carries his load of one hundred
other merchandise up and down The
precipitous pathways whore no other
beast of burden can go, and where it
is difficult for u to follow. But
when he is overloaded he rcsents il,
and lies down. No amount of coaxing
or bullying, or beating can get him to
his feet until the surplus is removed
from his back. when he rises; solemn
ly and marches Off with his load. He
will carry Il hundred pounds, but no
more; and his cargo is packed in
sacks or panniers, onc-half on either
side. Therefore all freight subject to
this mode Of transportation mast be
packed accordingly and limited To
packages of fifty pounds.
When frightened llamas always
cluster in groups, with their tails to-
gether aud their heads out to meet thu
enemy, and tlleir only weapon of de-
icnso is their saliva, which, when
angry, they squirt through their tcetl
in showers MS a Chinese laundrymal
sprinklcs his clothes.
A drop of this saliva falling in III,
ear. or eye, or mouth, or. on any par
of the body where the skin is broken
will instantly produce a most painful
irritation, and often dangerous sore!
like the venom of 4 serpent. Ih'
llama-drivcrs keep away from the
heads of their animals as carefully a
a colorcd man from the heels of
mule.
When they lilo down they fold thei
long slender legs under them in som'
mysterious II and chew thei
cud With an air Of abstract contem
plution and absolute content.
The kids afford excellent food, bu
!, the bodies of the old llamas are masse
of muscle. tendon, and gristle that ar
tough and rank. They live to Il grca
age, subsist upon almost anything i.
the shape of food, and have as power
| full digestive apparatus as Il goat or a
J, ostrich.

hours, s TO 10 a. m, 3 to 5 p. M" On

was attracted by this huge sign on the
opposite side of the street, and also by
the number of people focking into the
building. Entering the building. | was
at a loss what to make of the matter, as
all could see was the crowd and a large
tank in the center of the room. This
tank was some seventy feet long, thirty
feet wide, and, as l learned afterwards,
about 30 feet deep, having been con
structcd at a great expense. While wait
ing patiently for Developments, l found
that the liquid was being lowered or let
out by some means. Soon a smooth
black surface appeared to view, and as
the water continued to rccedc l became
aware that a captive whale was on ex
hibition. Surprised at not having to pay
any admission fee, | was soon made
aware of the reason. A framework had
been constructed, on which the animal
tested, and o o an expert milkman was
engaged in extracting for the consump.

was greedily absorbed at five shillings
