The Duchess sat by the isttIced pane.
AMI Watched the world as il passed below.
A chri>tmns world in its garb of snow.
And her look was full OF line disdaln-
She countc,l her presents one by one:
The puke'- great pearl with its ruby set.
The Epprcss's splendid coronet.
And hundred more ere the tale was done
She ionecd for the F'lies OF southern land.
Fer light ard beauty on every hand.
And the Christmas bells Of her native Spain,
She felt the breath OF that warmer air.
and saw the cathedral, old and gray.
Where ON festival days she was wont TO pray.
With a lace mantilla upon her hair.
A quiver crept t.her naughty mouth.
Thonsh she had more than Queen could
She pIned mid the ice for the South the

At length there entered dainty page,
a ca<kFt he bore from some mighty lord.
Which should have hidden Peri's hoard
or treasures held from another age
She lifted the lid in a listless way.
hen her face was filled with sudden light.
Which had bloomed in Spain but the other
Fafrer she seemed than ever before,
Dancing that night at the Emperor's ball:
But. as for her jewels, she scorned them all;
Her only gems were the flowers she wore.

The most periIous hour of a per-
sons life is when he is tempted to
despond. The man who loses his
courage, loses all; there is no more
hope of him than of a dead man.
But it matters not how poor he may
be, how much pushed by circum-
stances, how much deserted by
friends, how much lost to the world
If he only keeps his courage,
holds up his head, and with uneon-
querabIe will determines to be and
to do what becomes a man, all viii
be well. 1t is nothing outside oi
him that kills; it is what is within
that makes or not makes.

world is the matter with you, that

would let the greatest catch of the

And, to my astonishmcnt, she an

come To me that have educated you
to be that something without a heart
Ia perfect society girl-and that 1
must not blame men if they do not

they call" OF course, was disap-
pointed, irstat Jacks bad taste, and
then at mammals ridiculous out
break. Mariory was quietly mar
ried the next month, and to day she,
who used to wear my cast off clothes,
who wearied me by talking of the
beauty of love and religion, is the
acknowledged leader of society in
New York.
After her marriage we went
abroad In London and in Paris
vcrybody raved over me as the
beautiful American. My pictures
were eagerly sought for; the gowns
L wore were copied; color fancied
by me became the fashion. And so
year after year went by, some spent
in this country, some spent on the
other side, until one day 1 had a
sharp pain of curious kind come
to me when l heard a fiippant boy
of nineteen say in rude, slangy
fashion: "Baby is beginning to be q
back number" 1t was horrible
slang, but-but-I thought of the
girls who had come out with me-
They were married and had little
children about them; 1 thought of
my father and mother; they were
both dead. Then thought of my
SELF All that great forturne has
come to me, but l was alone. AS /
drive in the park of an afternoon,
sitting, as only l can sit, in my Vic
toria, | see the people look ut me
and hear them say: "That's the
famous beauty That's the woman
who had so much money and SO
much beauty that she might, at any
time, have married any man she
wanted to-"
l see the stability dressed girls
stare. at ne and hold on a little
tighter to their sweet-hearts' arms,
and once / heard little woman say:
"John, that may be beautiful wo-
man but she is not a happy one" =
'She is a selfish one, my dear, and
the most beautiful face ceases to be
lovely when in the heart there is
only thought of itself"
Is this true? Has my life been a
failure? Is there something better
than the admiration of the aristo-
cratic set? Is there anything bet
ter than luxury and beauty and sur
roundings that give pleasure to all
the senses? There must be, else how
can these people be happy? Well,
it's too late for mel cant begin
again. 1 don't know that L want
to; but should have liked to have
it decided if those people who talk
about love and goodness are right
or whether it is just best to be what
always have been and am still-a
society girl.

and fall asleep as if he had nothing

his head and his nerve. l remem-
Der that one evening he went to his
headquarters in log cabin. A big
battle was to be fought next day,
and one of his division Generals, full
of anxiety, was pacing back and
forth like a Gagged bear. Grant put
his saddle down with blanket over
1t, lay on the floor with his saddle
for pillow, and was asleep in no
time. In the morning his head was
cool and clear and he could make
his plans without confusion, while
the division General, who had been
awake all night, began the day by
being thoroughly used up.

A Problem for PrOfecffOnfsfa.
When a man sits down seriously
and tries 10 work out the problem
the protectionists submit when they.
assert that the building up of man
ufacturing industries benefits agri-
cultural interests he is apt to en-.
counter file. The reports of the
Massachusetts, Bureau of Labor Sta
tistics resolve themselves into pref
ty sharp and hard file. These show
that the abandoned farm lands in
that State arc about 3.45 per cent.
ofthe total farm acreage of the State.s
When we seek the reason it is
patent that railroads have contribu-
ted largely to the decline of agricuI-
ture. This exposes the falIacy that
the railway only pcnetrates region
to make it blossom and yield gener-
ousIy to the hand of the husband
man. 1t is not true of the New
England States; we question wheth-
er it holds good in all the Western
States.
Another surprise is to find that
in the county which boasts the State
State Agricultural College the hoe
and plow have been laid down to
the tune of 6.s5 per cent. Finally,
we find that there are twelve towns
in which agricultural and manufac-
turing interests have declined, FIVE
in which manufactures hayeincreas-
cd and agriculture declined, and
twenty-one in which agricultural
products have increased while man
ufactures have fallen off. Here is a
paradox for the protectionists.

indeed, tbs whole building, from cellar
70 atttcs 70 make sure that no reporters
wore concealed In any corner, where the
days proceedings might be overheard.
Oue Of the first things to come up. was
. rosumpti0n OF the discussion ON the
amendment 70 the constitution providing
for two assistant national lecturers. Az
ter . somewhat lengt thy debate the ques-
tiOn came tc vote and the amendment
carried.
The election Of officers took up most
OF the forenoon and resulted a. follows:
President, John II. Powers; vicc-presi-
dents, Thomas Spinx. OF New York;
Chas. Morgan, Of PcnnsyivAnia; III. Lick

The election OF officers was quito har :
rnOntous, except with respect to the na-
ti0nAl lecturer, N. Il. Ashley was can
didAte for reelection, but the delegates
from Ohio thought that as that state was
second In Alliance strength the national
lecturer should come from there. The

finally resulted In the choiceof Mr.. Law
renee.
The president announced the following
committee on education: Mrs. Pratt,
Miss Mcdonald. ID. III. Talbot, Jay Bur-
rows and Milton George.
II was decided to hold the next an
nnal meeting at Chicago, the executive
