7HEDrFFERENCE.
When Washington was President

When Washington was President
AS cold as an icicle,
He never on railroad went,
And never rode bicycle.
He read by no electric lamp,
Nor heard about the Yellowstone,
He never licked a pOstage-stamp.
And never saw telephone.
His trousers ended at the knees,
BY wire he could not send dispatch,
He filled his lamp with whale.oil grease,
And never had match to scratch.
But in these days it, come to pass,
AIlwork is with such dashing done
We've all those things; but then, alas!
We seem to have no Washington.

CHAPTER XIII.

Early next morning Bridget, Monica's
maid, enters Kits room in somewhat mys
FERROUS fashion. CHANGING all round the
room furtively, as though expecting an
enemy lying in ambush behind every chair
and table, she says, in a low, cautious tone,-
IA letter for you, miss"
AS she says this, she draws note from
beneath her apron, where, in her right hand,
it has been carefully hidden,-so carefully,
indeed, that she could not have failed to
create suspicion in the breast of babe.
For me p says Kit off her guard for once.
"Yes, miss" .-.
"Who brought it?'
"a bit Of a gossoon, miss, out there in the
yard beyant. An he wouldn't give me his
name; but sure know him well for boy
of the Maddens', an one of the Coole peo-
pie. His father, an his gran father before
him, were laborers with the ould Squire"
"Ah, indeedp says Kit By this time she
has recovered her surprise and her compos-
ure. THANK you, Bridget" she says, with
quite grandiloquent air; put it there, on
that table. 1t is Of no consequence, dare
say; You can CO."
Bridget-whO, like all her cOuntrywomen,
dearly likes love-affair, and is quite aware
miStreSs-is disappointed.
THE gOssOOn said he was to wait for an
answer, miss" she says, insinuatingly. "An'
faix," waxing confidential, 81 think caught
sight of the coat-tails of Misther Desmond's
man outside the yard gate"
you should never think on such occa-
sions, Bridget; and coat-tails are decidedly
lOlD," says the younger Miss Beresford, with
scathing reproof.
''They weren't very low miss. He wore
one O. them cut-away coats" says Bridget
in an injured tone.
"You fail to grasp my meaning" says Kit,
gravely. However, let it pass. If this note
requires an answer, you can wait in the next
room until write it."
Then she tears open the envelope, and
reads as follows . -4.....s-

Prompt action is as the breath of her nos
trils to Kit. Drawing pen and ink toward
her, without moments hesitation, she
scribbles an answer to Desmond 49,
"We are going toward Ballyvoureen this
afternoon, to take pudding to old Biddy

DO you suppose, when Aunt Priscilla was
young, she would have deserted-let us say

to do her credit. Though 1 must say her
spirit Is rather out of place now, at times.
But" with concentrated energy, Il would

"Brutal?" family.
Yes, brutal, to keep him waiting for you

Having discharged this shell, she waits in
stony silence for reply. She waits some
time. Then
Are you speaking of-of Mr.. Desmond?"
asks Monica, in trembling voice.
Yes. lie is standing there now, and has

'Oh, what shall dog' says Monica, torn
in two between her desire to be true to her
aunt and yet not unkind to her lover
"As l said before" says the resolute Kit,
turning her small pale face up to her sis.
ter, II know am not entitled to dictate to
any one, but this know, too, that if were

side, I should still-go to himl Therep'
She conquers. Monica rises slowly, and
as a first move in the desired direction goes

say, also, that she feels dissatisfied with
her appearance? aE .."r; g~a .i.a

then Monica steps out lightly, fearfully, up
on the corridor outside, and SO, with her
heart dying within her, creeps past her
aunts' doors, and down the wide staircase,
and through the hall and at last into the sill

The unmistakable hope her pause con-

About Chanpagnc.

With the latter part OF October comes tho
harvesting OF the champagne vintage. and the
whole district Of Champagne becomes as busy
as bee hive. About 15. 900 hectares are covered
with vines. The yield is estimated at $25.000.-
600. It is difficult for anybody who has not
seen It to appreciate the extreme care taken
with the champagne vintage. The grapes are
plucked one by one. are selected according
to their ripeness. and often they have to
be cleaned before they are put into the
presses. There are two things about
champagne that arc not generally known.
The vino is not the product Of white grapes.
Three.fourths OF. the champagne vines pro-
duce black grapes only. and the almost white
color Of the wine Is obtained through the per-
lection OF the presses. Again. while In Borde-
lais and In Bourgogne each crop Of grapes has
its own individuality. and admits OF no mixing.
It Is quite tho contrary In Champagne There
tributes its own peculiar quality to the wine.
The annual production Of champagne wines
Is abundantly SUFFICIENT for the consumption
OF champagne In the. whole world. despite
what has been said to the contrary. 1t am0unts
