Al etiquette writer In Oscar Nilde's

similarity OF queries arising from puz-

Among these the perplcxed bride

The bride is 40 longer expected TO
furnish the household linen. this pretty
custom which dates from the days when
the maiden spun and wOve her linen,
having lost its pretty significance and

her to his heart, half lifting her and half
supporting her over the rough way.
As they walked, they discoursed more
quietly, as the mood fell on them; and it
now seemed to Lazarus that he must, if ever,
make known to the maiden the mystical
manner OF her rescue. With some hesits-
tion he inquired of her what she remem-
bered of the shipwreck.
''The boat overturnd-and Rebecca
screamed-snd the slaves cried out. Poor
Rebeccal I forgot Rebecca. I hope the
1ellows saved her She did cling upon the
boat. But 1 fell over into the water-snd
it was colder than death-snd I prayed
Jehovah to save me. And then began to
sink; and some person caught me-and that
is all know"
''Who dost thou suppose saved thee, nv
own?" asked Lazarus tenderly, "Rnd now
thinkest thou such deed was done?"
Verify, know not" answered zahara,
csrelessly.
"But who brought thee from the wreck
unto the shore, Zahara? 1t is long space
two stadis at least think.
Zahara shook her head perplexedly.
''Was it thou?"
"Alas. Zahzra. 1 swan about boats
length to thee. The waters beat me back. 1
could do no more for thee than thy silken
sail"
''It Is SINGULAR" said 7ahSra; twas it
one of the slaves?'
SIT was the King of Kings!" cried Laz-
arus abruptly Zahars lifted her large,
warm eyes They looked little critically
at him through the gloom. Was Lazarus
subject to mania? Had the shipwTeck dis
ordered his intellect?
There was nothing less to do, and Lazarus
told her the amazing facts. He expected
them to overwhelm Zahara, perhaps to con-
vert her to his own faith in the wonderful
rabbi To his perplexity, Zahara received
the story coolly.
''Thou madest some mistake, my love,
she answered; "thy fright and the darkness
did deceive thee. Some Of the slaves swan
ashore with me. !"
"ImpossibleP' cried Lazarus, HE whom
I name did walk the sea and carry thee, and
lay thee at nv feet and disappear, Sawest
thou ever a slave do that?"
''Some of these fellows have wonderful
art, " said Zahara incredulously. "They do
extraordinary things"
Zahara's beauutuI face lifted to Lazarus
bore tine highbred, skeptical expression of
the cultivated doubter. Lazarus was terribly
pained by it for the moment. Then she
smiled, and he kissed her and forgot it-for

the night, suddenly, at curve in the shore.

PIE FOE HER SUPPER.
Secret of Startling UprOar Explained by
the Porter.

the Porter.
Louisville Courier-Journal.l
From my end OF the car down the narrow
aisle see the conductor and the porter
struggling with woman and trying to calm
her while men are starting out of their
berths to lend a hand to the rescue. 1t is
quite apparent that there are enough people
around the woman to prevent the mur-
der and in that opinion the calm and in
different man in the lower berth opposite
unites with me, so we await developments.
A few minutes later, when the uproar has
subsided and the porter comes, making his
way down to that mysterious boujoir, where
he shines boots at 80 cents a pair and medi-
tates schemes of robbery and pillage upon
innocent passengers, my cool nelghbor
across the way puts his head out between
the curtains, and, seizing the ebony official
by the arm as he passes, asks him in tired
sort OF voice:
"Porter, who was killing that woman?"
Nobody, sab. The lady has ct pie for
