The other day Johnny came running
home from school and handed his mother
note.
Mamma" he said, "here is a lef,
handed compliment which / just received

His mother, upon reading the missive,
found it to be highly praiseworthy of
Johnny's spelling.
"Why this is no left handed compli-
ment, she said. This is very encour-
aging"
''fes, replied Johnny, but our teach
er wiote it with her left hand. She's

The First Express Package.

The first express package carrier was a
rather consumptive-lOoking young man
Of the name of Harnden (his given name
has escaped my memory who in 1886
instituted the business in New York by
calling on bankers, brokers and mer-
chants with a carpet-bag and soliciting
the carrying Of money and other valu-
able packages between that city and
Boston. Like all new undertake
ings, it was not long before a com.
petitor appeared in the person Of Alvah
Adams, who selected Philadelphia as his
objective point, and who adopted the
same tactics as Harnden.
James HOey, who is now a prominent
figure in the Adams Express Company.
and a reputed millionaire, was at that
time a young Irish boy employed to
sweep out 10Xl5 Office on William ST.
west side, between Wall and Pine. and
to deliver and call for packages which
became too large for the carpet-bag.
The business grew rapidly, the trunk
took the place Of the carpet-bag, sue
ceeded by irOn-bOund crates strongly
padlOcked, which had to give way to box
cars on truck wheels. for the convent
ence Of transfer from the New York and
Providence line Of steamboats, to the
Boston and Providence Railroad. Harm,
den continued the Eastern route and
Adams the Southern. Later on a con-
sOlidation took place under the present
title, and Harnden' S Express was merged
into the Adams Express Commonwealth
cagO Tribune.

A Woinan's Wrath.

The Veritzins were mobiles of enormous
e-ealth and power. Paul held a high
Office in court. One night, glittering
with Jewels and orders, the young Prince,
who was one Of the handsOmest men in
Russia, danced in q quadrille opposite
the Empress.
As she passed him in the dance she
fancied that his eyes scanned her gross
figure with covert amusement. After
the quadrille she beckOned to him, and
with a smile handed him her tiny ivory
tablets, containing seven pages. one for
each day in the week. On the first was
written:
The imperial ballroom, st. Peters
burg"
On the last:
The mines, Siberia"
He read it, his face grew gray as that
Of a corpse; he bowed low, kissed her
hand and withdrew, taking" says the
old chronicle, his wife, the beautiful
Princess Of NOvgorod, with him" He
was heard to say as he left the ball
room:
My minutes are numbered; let us
not lose one"
Flight or resistance was impossible.
The hold of Catherine on her victims
was inexorable as death. Prince Verit-
zin was forced to remain passive In his
palace, while each day the power, the
wealth and the happiness that life had
given him were stripped from him.
First he was degraded from all his
Offices at court; next his estates were
con1scated by the crown; his friends
were forbidden to hold any communi-
cation with him; his very name, one Of
the noblest in Russia, was taken from
him and he was given that Of serf.
Then his wife and children were driven
out Of the palace to herd with beggars
On the last day" says the record,
Paul Veritzin, in rags and barefoot,
chained to a convict, bade an eternal
farewell to his home and departed to the
dark and icy North. He was seen OF
men no more. Chatter.

Why Do Diamonds sparkIe .

Many persons have been puzzled to
account for the ceaseless motion Of dia-
mOnds in the earrings worn by ladies'.
1t makes no difference that the head of
4he wearer is in perfect repose, and that
she is speeehless, the twinkling goes on.

OF the gem.
The secret Of this motion IS in the set

patented. The patentee is reaping a

lege of using it. The stone is set in the
usual manner, except that a band like
the handle Of diminutive basket is at.
tached to the framework.
On the other side Of the band is a cup.
like cavity. On the lower part Of the
hoop is pin, pointed with rhOdium-a
metal which never wears Out-some,
thing like the iridium with which gold
pens are tipped.
When the diamonds are put into posi-
tion on the hoop the rhodium point pro,
iects into the cup. The result is what
scientists call a condition OF unstable
equilibrium. Like the pea blown with q
pipe by schOOlbOy, the diamond is
given no rest with the difference that
no effort is required to keep 1t dancing

The search for Prettv Uir0s.

Girls to be successful to-day must have
something more than pretty features.
The men who are worth marrying are
looking for something else than pretty
faces, coy manners or fetching gowns.
They are recognizing full we'll that
women are progressing at a pace which
will quicken, rather than slacken. They
realize that the woman OF tomorrow
will be brighter in mind than her pre-
decessor Of to-day. Hence, they are
looking for wives who will be the equal
of those of their neighbors. Beauty is
being considered an adjunct to common
sense. '' I want wife who knows some
thing, who is worth having for what she
knows; not one of these social butter
fies, said one of the greatest q catches 1"
OF the last New York season to me at
the winters close. And he expressed
the sentiments Of thousands Of the
young men Of to-day. The scent for
pretty wives is over, and the lookout
for bright young women has begun.
And the girl who to-day trains her mind
to knowledge will be the woman Of to-
morrOw.-Ladies Home Journal.
