QUEEN 1sABELLA's KIND HEART

A little incident illustrative of the
kindness of Queen Isabella is told of a
Spaniard who had tried to take the life
the Queen. The report that he was dy-
ing of hunger in Paris reached her.
''Send him five hundred francs" she
commanded.
"But your Majesty knows that this
man is an assassin, that it is he who"
"What difference does that mAke?
answered the Queen. "You are absurd
with your hatred and your ideas of ven
geance. The unhappy man did not wish
to kill me, but the party l represent
Go now and do what l bid you. "-Netc

IT WAS on THE YOUNG MAN.

1t was on Cass street, only last night.
The strains of music had died away in
the parlor and the old gentleman on the
floor above stuck his head over the ban
listers and called plaintively to his daugh-
ter
"Oh, Mary!'
''Whati is it papa?" she asked tenderly,
coming to the hall door.
"What was that?" he inquired.
"What was what, papa?"
THAT noise"
There wasn't any noise, papa, except
my singing"
''Was that all, Mary?"
Eyes, papa, all, except that Mr.. Man
let was accompanying me on the piano"
''Is that what it was, Mary?" he com
planned, ENORMOUSLY. 81 thought he
was accompanying you on wagon load
of empty barrels"
A large wad Of silence, fell into the
hall and lay there for as much as min
ute, when the old gentleman complain
ingly called out again.
MARY; oh, Mary"
eyes, papa" she responded dutifully
Are you going to sing again, Mary?"
he asked.
mo, papa; but Mr.. Manlet is"
The old gentleman was quiet for about
half minute, then he called again.
MARY; oh, Mary"
Eyes, papa"
"Are you going to accompany Mr..
Manlet?"
mo, papa"
rs he going to accompany himself,
Mary?"
Eyes; papa"
"On the piano, Mary?"
Eyes, papa"
Another pause.
"Ah, Mary!" called the old gentleman
again.
Yes, papa" but a little more fret
fully.
Won't you please ask Mr.. Manlet to
accompany himself on a street car down
town this time and give the piano a
rest?"
Then an audible chuckle came down
stairs and the two young people looked
at each other silently.-DetroH Free
