IN. de Prevaret!" exclaimed NJ. Tarvenue.
"Why, yes" said madam, initiating her
daughters self-possessed and Indifferent
mien. 'Solange is not astonished. He has
been noticing her q great deal of late. And
II he should want to marry her there would
be nothing surprising in that either. She is
handsome enough to make q messalliance
possible
A discussion then arose between Nine.
Tarvenue and her daughter as to whether
they should call, In their turn, on the dowa-
ger countess-a discussion which was thus
concluded by the young lady:
ION general principles 1t should be papa
who returned the call. But he would not
know how to appear in q way that would do
us justice. Now, if it were I, having the
habit Of the world, should know how to
manage perfectly. SO, it is best that mamma
and should go to call on the countess. By
doing 50 we will make her understand that
we are very willing to know her, but not
willing to accept the attentions Of her son
against her wishes"
The plan was cleverly conceived, and q
week later was carried out.
On the same day the dowager Countess
de Prevaret was chatting with her son in
large salon filed with fine old furniture.
He, who was the most touchingly devoted
OF sons, had been asking his mother how
she had passed the afternoon. She had
been too tired to receive, she said. But
there had been several callers. "Among
others these"-and she took up a card

countess. II waa surprised to get their

20, yes, remember now. believe they

"Good souls, Perhaps" laughed her son,
''but frightfu]ly ordinary The mother is
impossible. AS for the daughter We call
her the empress. l assure you the name
suits her. She is tremendous poscuse"
but why should they como to see mel'
asked the countess.
''Perhaps to solicit subscriptions for some
charity. The mother and daughter belong
to different church organizations, think"
"Pcrhaps. I don't care to know them,
but want to be polite. I might leave my
card some day at their house. That would
not commit me to any thing"
"Of course not, especially with the Tar
venues"

Such investigation as we have been
able to make convinces us that the
Smiths have attained all the honors
and eminence to which their numerical
strength entities them. About one
eighty-ffth of our population are Smiths.
Though the last House of Representa-
tives contained only one Smith among
its 325 members, four of the 226 Cabinet
officers since the beginning of the Gov
ernment, or one out of fifty-six, have
borne that name. One of the fifty-fve
signers of the Declaration of Independ-
ence was Smith, as was also the writer
of one of our two or three really excel
lent patriotic songs, MY Country, 'Tis
of Thee" But averages come nearer to
being an expression of the truth in pro-
portion to the increase of numbers to
which they are applied. Of the 679 mem
bers of the Chamber of Commerce of this
CITY nine (including the president), or
one out of seventy-seven, are Smiths; of
the 5000 members of the Produce Ex-
change thirty or one out of seventy
seven. Of the 5,721 students at the Ma
val Academy from it's foundation to 1876
seventy, or one out Of eightytwo, were
Smiths; and of the Is, 406 citizens of this
State who have at various times held the

Home Treatment.

Home Treatment.
Sufferers are not generally aware that
these diseases are contagious, or that they
are due to the presence of living parasites
in the lining membrane of the nose and
eustachian tubes Microscopic research,
however, has proved this to be fact, and
the result of this discovery is that a simple
remedy has been formulated whereby
Catarrh, Hay Fever and Catarrhal Deafness
are permanently cured in from one to three
simple applications made at home by the
patient once in two weeks.
N. B.-This treatment is not a snuff or an
ointment; both have been. discarded by
renlltable physicians as injurious. A pamph-
let explaining this new treatment is sent on
