The principal wife Of thoshah Of Per-
sia, who is suffering from cataract in
one of her eyes, has reached Vienna and
submitted to an operation, whereby 1t il
hoped she will be able to view all the
moro clearlyyon her return to Teheran,
the charms and grace3 Of her worthy
and exalted husband. the king Of kings.
The feelings Of the viennese dudes, who
hovered around the railway station ON
Wednesday in the hope of catching a
sight of her, have received q rude shock.
Instead of young and lovely houri,
they saw from the distance decrepit
old lady, not far short Of 90, lifted from
carriage by number of elderly nc
groes, who assisted her into the waiting
room, where she was received by the
ladies of tho Persian embassy. Her
majesty, besides being blind, was muffied
in thick, black veil, and all that the
gilded youths obtained for their trouble
was far away sight OF the ladies afore-
said and the scowls Of the eunuchs de-
puted by the shah TO follow his wife, by
way of concession TO the Persian equiv
alent for Mrs Grundy. Professor Fuchs
has already operated upon the royal eyes
and has little doubt he will be able to
effect permanent cure.-Cor. Pittsburg

Tho Smallest of Twins.

Mrs. Charles Orton, wife Of, the cough
drop man, who is known by nearly every
person in the two, cities, gave. birth q
few days ngo to two Of the smallest
babies that there is any authentic record
Of. The babies weigh three-quarters Of
O pound and one pound respectively, and
are well developed and apparently In
perfect health. The. news soon spread
over the neighborhood Of the arrival OF
the tiny strangers, and tho house was
thronged with curious women until at
last it was necessary for Mrs Orton's
health to oexclude visitors from tho house,
and scales wero procured from a grocery
ltore near by. The babies were weighed,
and the boy tipped the beam ut one
pound, while the girls weight was one
quarter Of pound short of this .p.u
I Mrs. Sadie Gray, the nurse in charge
of the midgets, was presentat tho weigh
ing, and sh6 said that both babies had
gained at. least three ounces since their
birth. She was sure that Wednesday
the weight of the two was not more than
three-fourths Of pound and~a half
pound respectively. Either child could
be hidden under u quart measure, or
both could be slowed away comfortably
in an ordinary ovcrcoat pocket. Both
have black hair and have very pretty
faces. Mrs. Gray told tho. reporter
that both children were remarl1a-
bly,, healthy. and she thought there
was no danger Of their death. They are
very lively, and are not rs "cross" as the
average child, she said. Mr. Orton Is
the. father of six children. = The other
four are Of ordinary size. He is thirty
nine years of age, and is the son Of tho
late Chief Of Police Orton. His wife is
also thirty-nine years of age, and is q
very pleasant ana attractive woman.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Orton are ordinary
sized people.-PittBburg Commercial

How women Can Dress We'll.

There is no reason in the world why
anybody should have an tfhbecomipg
costume this season In fabrics and in
colors all sorts and conditions of women
are catered to, and all tones, from the
faintest to the deepest, are deftly
wrought out SO that tho particular shade
that the wise woman finds becoming to
her can De gotten without any trouble.
There are plain colora for woman who
likes stuffs that are not conspicuous
There are spots big and little, plaids bias
and straight and stripes Of all widths
and kinds. Be little careful in choos-
ing your colors, and remember that be-
cause somebody tells you how well you
look in costume of navy blue you must
not conclude that every blue shade is
suited to you, for that extremely trying
but very beautiful one known as army
makes the average womans complexion
look as yellow rs a lemon.
Because scarlet makes your hair look
warmer and gives deeper color to your
eyes, it does not follow that magenta is
suited to you. General rules do not ap-
ply to women who are nothing II not in
dividual. Somebody says that small
bonnets are universally becoming, and
you, whose face is rather broad, whose
nose is a bit retrousse, put one on and
believe you look well. A bonnet, more
than anything else, needs to be tried on,
and although ono may gcneralize and
say bonnets are ladylike it can no more
be asserted that bonnets are always be-
coming than it could be that all women
are good figures. SO just think out
things before you choose them.-Mrs.
Mallon in Ladies' Home Journal

A MIlIionniro,s EARLY Sweetheart.

An interesting story is told Of Mr.. Ar
mour's early life He recently met in a
business way, quite by accident, an old
friend of his youth. After tho greeting,
which was the first for twenty years, he
exclaimed ut once to the gentleman: 81
say, what has become of the girl who
used to visit our shop? You remember
her--that charming blonde, Miss Blank?
The old friend smiled as he replied; ooh,
she's married and got big family"
"Whom did she marry?" demanded Ar
mour. "She married u teamster named
Bill Brown-you must remember him"
"What has become of hirn!" "Oh, he is
teaming yet" was the reply.
The gentleman who relates this Incl
dent afterward observed to a friend
"What a little event may change. the
whole course of a girls life! Armour
was butcher boy then, and he loved
that sprightly blonde, but Brown, the
teamster, was successful rival and
nearly broke Phil's heart by carrying
her off."-New York Journal.

THE OLD SILVER WATCH.

Charles Eames stepped into the Office
of his friend Bowles, editor of The Glen

"To you? congratulate you heartily

years."
"How is that?"
"She didn't approve Of my becoming

should, doubtless, have been her sole
heir. This small legacy Is meant more
as au aggravation than anything else."

In the next issue Of The Glenville

to read the following paragraph:

this paragraph that l had inherited my
aunt's entire property"
He put on his hat and walked down
the street. He met Ezekiel Brooks, presi-

Mr. Brooks beamed with cordiality.

For q moment he regretted his daugh-

that his son-in-law, through lucky mis-

management, might be increased. So he
