her story that win only give a brief
summary of her confession.
She told me that she was engaged to
Mr.. Frank Holden, and had been for
more than year, but that the engage
ment had never been announced About
six months before she had learned that
her fance was paying marked attention
to shopgirl in Jordan & Marsh's, with
whom he had become enamored.
He offered her honorable marriage,
but the girl was too sensible not to fore
see that complications would arise owing
to their different stations in life and re-
fused him. Holden, however, was per-
sistent, and Miss Mason, who did not
know that he was already engaged, sub
mitted to his wishes to this extent. She
told him he must leave her and see moth
ing of her for three months. II at the
end of that time he still wished to marry
her she would consent.
1t was further agreed that he should
inform her of his decision in the follow
ing manner, When the three months
were past if he still loved her he should
send her bit of red ribbon; if not, a
scrap of purple.
All this Miss Ornsby discovered, as
well as the date on which he would send
the token. She knew we'll enough that
it would be red, and she knew also that
as long as Miss Mason lived her own
love was vain. She likewise learned
that Miss Mason was of highly nervous
temperament and very much in love
with Mr.. Holden, SO she felt quite sure
that should he disappoint her she would
do something desperate.
1t now only remained to send bit OF
purple on the day that Holden sent the red
ribbon, and SO arrange matters that the
shop girl should have several hours at
her disposal before her lover could dis.
cover the trick.

The MistIefoe.

Kissing under the mistletoe is reid
of Scandinavian mythology. Lohi hated
Balder, the Apollo Of the North,
and as Everything that springs from
fire, air, earth and water had been
sworn not to hurt the celestial favorite,
the wicked spirit made an arrow OF
mistletoe, which he gave to blind Homer
to test. The God Of Darkness shot the
arrow and killed Bladder. Being restored
to life at the urgent request Of the gods
and goddesses, the mistletoe was given
to the goddess Of Love to keep, and
every one who passed under it received
kiss, to show that the branch was the
emblem Of love and not of death. The
mistletoe is a parasitical plant which
fourishes ON the branches of many kinds
of trees in northern Europe. 1t is the
viscum album of botanists, and is fire.
quently found on the apple, and less
often on the oak. The druids regarded
it with peculiar reverence, from its con-
nection with the oak, the favorite tree
of their divinity, Tutanus, who seems
to have been identical with the Ph9ni-
clan god, BaaI, or the sun. The plant ID
very rarely found in Scotland and
nowhere in Ireland. Itabounds in some
parts of England. Brooklyn Eagle.

Sings sweetiy Though Nearly 80 Years old.
Mrs. Emma Bostwick, once known as
the American Jenny Lind, has probably
retained her voice to a greater age than
any other public singer. She is now
seventy-seven years old, but her voice Is
still pure and fresh, and she sings in adj
mirable time and tune. She is the
daughter of an English violinist, named
Gi1lingham, and began her career on the
concert stage when only twelve years Of
age. By the time she was twenty she
was widely and favorab1y known. Her
voice had range of three octaves.
Theodore Thomas, then rising young
violinist, was among those who took
part in her concerts,
She was married in 1885, but did not
retire from the concert stage. For a
number of years she was the soloist OF
the New York Philharmonic society.
She has never sung in opera, and the
wonderful preservation of her voice il

ly to the care she has observed in her
diet and mode Of life Exchange.
