NICE, Feb. 10.-Miss Mary Anderson
granted an interview to-day on the steps of
the Hotel Metropolis, Mentone. well
she exclaimed, sit seems 70 mo there IS an
awful fuss just because have made I'D nv
mind to get married" Miss Anderson
looked well and happy, as SIC smiled at
her caller. She was ACCOMPANIED by Nr
Navarro and his mother. The young gem
Uleman wore tweeds and knee breecbes
showing a well-turned limb aud graceful
figure.
What is thatF' exclaimed Miss Ander-
son. AN action against me by Mr.. Abbey?
Why, it Is impossible. 1t is only recently
that l received letter from him congratu-
lating me on my betrothal. We have
always been on the very best of terms, and
while there is possibility of such letter
threatening suit have he ard rumors of it
I can hardly believe it. However,
most enphatically assert that no engage
ment exists with Mr.. Abbey excepting the
incomplete engagement Of last winter, but
from that was exempted by Doctors ad-
vice, who said | must give up the stage
temporarily, and my health would admit Of
no delay, or bubble or hesitation about it.
L never signed any contract with him to
appear next October.
Il am sure Mary did not" Mrs. Navarro
interpOsed.
1T is not at all likely" young Navarro
added, Indignantly.
In response to the reporters query about
her other engagement, Miss Anderson said:
mo, will not talk of my betrothal. That
concerns only him aud me- Well, yes, We
that $50, botherl Ask some one else. "
And, grasping the arm of her lover, she
blushed, laughed, and went down the path
to the road, swinging her sunshade and
chatting TO her two companions.
A close friend of Miss Anderson saws that
the betrothal ceremony took place last week
previous to her departure from Bordighera
in the presence of the Princess LobanOff de
Rostof nee Dolgoronki. Prince Czartoriski
and others of the hdute nobleSSe of Eng
land and Russia. The same authority also
says Miss Anderson makes no concealment
of her love for Navarro, while he on his
part waits upon her like slave. The party
intends remaining three weeks longer in
the Riviera.

Safe and Certain

Is the testimony of DR.. George f.
Waller, of Martinsville, Va, in
reference to Ayers Pills. DIR. j. T.
Teller, of Chittenango, N. Y, says -
ayers Pills are highly appreciated.
They are perfect in form and coating,
and their effects are all that the most
careful physician could desire They
have supplemented all the pills former
ly popular here, and 1 think it must be
long before any other can be made that
will at all compare with them. Those
who buy Ayers Pills get full value"
81 regard Ayers Pills as one of the
most reliable general remedies of our
times. They have been in use in my
family for various affections requiring a
purgative medicine, and have given un-
varying satisfaction. We have found
them an excellent remedy for colds and
light fevers." w. r. Woodson, Fort
Worth, Texas.

NOTE.

This company is formed to meet a
growing necessity. The phenomenal
development in Virginia presents i'm
rivalcd opportunities for safe invest
mcnt and large and quick returns. Cap
ital can nowhere earn surer or more spec
dy profits than here whether in town
property, mineral lands, stocks or Sc
curltlcs. Large fortunes have been le-
ultimately and quickly acquired by in
vcstmcnts, both by individual effort and
especially by combined capital. TO
those who have the time and means to
come and see and invest for themselves.
no field offers richer returns. But the
visitor is embarrassed by the very null
titudc of opportunities offered him on
every side in the many localities, and
can. with difficulty. determine where it
is best for him to place his money.
Again: Even those upon the grounds
are often compelled to let slip rare op-
portunitics daily presenting themselves,
simply because of lack of sufficient in
dividnal means. 1t is frankly believed
that this Company meets both of these
cmbarrassmcnts.

ABOUT REPUTATION.
How 1t Adapts It's Form to the Charae
ter Beneath 1t.

ter Beneath 1t.
Reputation is the outer garment of
character. Reputation often conceals
the character; yet, sooner or later, the
characters form will show itself in or
through the garment which it wears. An
old English ballad tells of a magic gar
ment brought to King Arthur's court,
Hhich could be worn only by person of
right and honorable life. From contact
with any other wearer the sensitive fab
ric shrunk away, refusing to do its office
of covering the person. Not unproit-
ably might we fancy ourselves sub
iected to similar ordeals. What if tho
truth of our language could be tested, sc
that words insincerely written by us
should vanish from the page; or if our
voice, in its too much protesting, were
to become inaudible? Would not the
confusion of King Arthur's circle be re-
peated in the society of to-day? Such
liability to public conviction would rem
der many a person more heedfu1 of
thought and word than he now supposes
himself to be; yet, even as things are,
disclosures likc thes. are constantly be-
ing made. A kindly seeming note
shows itself void of the spirit it pro-
fesses, the assurance of the lips is
denied by an infection of the voice, and
the tenor of the inner life IL by mani
fold signs laid open to the keen OBJ
server. There is no lack of tests where
by our real character is revealed to
others, though we may be all uncon-
scious when or how the revelation is eff
fected. And so it is that gradually our
reputation is adapting its form to the
character beneath its. S. Times.

The Cat.

On Sunday, Nov. 6, 1887. Hon. James
G. Mcguire, Justice of the Supreme
Court of San Francisco. addressed two
great meetings at the Academy of
Music and Steinway Hall, New York.
in behalf of the single tax, and in the
course of his speech used an jllustra-
ton that has made the cat the emblem
of that movement. Judge Mcguire
said:
did you ever see what we call
concealed picture? 1t is one of those
pictures OF trees, animals, birds, grass
and plants, which at first glance don't
appear to amount to much. But, if you
look at the bottom of the picture, you
may see the words, where is the Catp"
You examine the picture, but don't see
any cat. BY and by somebody comes
along who has seen the picture before,
or who has had the cat pointed out to
him. He asks, Don't you see that
twig?" '.Yes." Don't you see that
white strip between the twig and the
trunk of the tree?'' "Yes." well
that is one leg of the cat" ~
Still you don't see any cat, and you
may be ready to swear that there is no
cat there. Then he shows you the lit
tie dove-tailed arrangement of grass
and weeds down near the bottom, and
tells you that is the claws of the cat
Still you don't see any cat. Finally he
points out another branch that repre-
sents the ear. Instantly you behold
the cat, and if you do not see that pic.
ture again for twenty years. the very
minute you glance at it the first thing
you see is the cat.
So it is with simple natural truth
So it is with the great truths that arc
involved in the single tax idea. People
may look at the proposition. see moth
irg in it, and have parts and details ex-
planned to them. and still see nothing in
it. But the very minute they take in
the whole situation, they become en-
thusiasts, and point out the cat to
everybody else, After awhile they for.
get how hard it was for them to see the
cat and actually think man who can't
see it in an instant mus. be fool be-
cause it is so clear to them.
Ever since this speech was delivered
when one Single Tax man wishes to
indicate that another has come to fully
understand all that is involved in the
transfer of taxation to land values, he
says that such person '.has seen tho
