The Dissatisfied Young Woman.

There was once a beautiful young
woman who had the rare good fortune
to receive an offer of marriage from a
Young man who was rolling in wealth,
and living in the same lap of luxury in
which he had been raised. He was so
madly and desperately in love with the
Young woman that he was willing to
agree with any condition she might
name, consequently when she said tina.
she would not marry him unless he
went into business, because she could
not be the wife of an idle man, he prom
ised to go at once into anything she
might name. Being an aristocratlc
Young woman she said she would like
him to besome banker. He at once
went into banking and, knowing moth
ing Of the business, failed inside of two
wears after the marriage, and lost all
his fortune. Being too proud to canvass
for books and too delicate to swing a
pickax, the young man blew his head
off and the beautiful young widow
was obliged to take in washing until
her kpuckles shone like the bosom of G
pair of two-dollar trousers. The mora

HIS FAVORITE DISH.
WashIngton's supper Was Late. But He Got
What He Desired.


Mrs. A. j. Dauds, of Canton, o., relates
an anecdote of Gen. Washington, as
told by her grandfather, Nicholas Firm
ger, of Tarrytown, Nd, who was owner
of the mill in question, and which illus
trates the plainness of Washington's
diet.
During the administration of Wash
ington he found it necessary to take
business trip. of few days duration
accompanied by his staff. 1t having be-
come known to the citizens of Tarry-
town that he would pass through there,
arrangements were made to give him
royal reception and the proprietor of
the village tavern, at which he would
take supper, prepared to serve a menu
fit for king. Everything, almost, in
the line of eatables that one could think
of was secured and placed in readiness
to be served on short notice. About
four o'clock in the afternoon of the
eventful day the distinguished party ar
rived and was driven to the hotel upon
being told when to have supper ready,
the host sent word to Washington
room asking him if he would state what
he would like best He was greatly
surprised to learn that Washington de-
| sired only mush and milk. In the at
| tempt to have everything convenient
| those in charge had not thought OF corn
meal. The nearest place where it could
be obtained was at the mill of Nicholas
Fringer, some distance from the village.
However, one of the villagers, friend
of the landlord, offered to go after the
meal and a minute later was astride a
horse galloping towards the mill. The
much desired article was quickly Sc
cured, and the horseman was soon baci
to the tavern. Although supper was ;
little late, Washington had his musl
and milk, and later thc party resume
its iourney.-Detroit Free Press.

PARADISE FISH OF CHINA.
It Has Chameleon Power, Many of Its
Colors Being Brilliant.

It Has Chameleon Power, Many OF Its
Colors Being Brilliant.
The oldest of all piscatorial raritlcs
is the paradise fish of China. Like the
German canary and one or two other
species of bird and fish, this little finny
beauty is the product of cultivation
only, there being no place in the world
where it is found in wild state. In
the land of the dragon they are kept
and cultivated in ornamental aquari-
ums, each succeeding generation of the
little oddities exhibiting more diversi-
fed colors. The male is the larger of
the two sexes, measuring, when full
grown, three and one-half inches. The
body is shaped very much like that OF
common pumpkin-seed sun fish, its
color surprising in brilliancy any fish
heretofore cultivated for the aquarium.
The head of the macropodus (that is his
generic name) is ashy gray, mottled
with irregular dark spots. The gills
are azurine blue, bordered with brill
liant crimson. The eyes are yellow and
red, with black pupil. The sides of
| the body and the crescent-shaped
caudal fin are deep crimson, the former
having from ten to twelve vertical blue
stripes, while the latter is bordered
| with blue. The upper surface of the
body is continually changing color
sometimes it Is white, at others gray,
black or blue The dorsal and anal
fins are remarkably large, hence its
generic name; Macro, large; podus, fin
| or foot. Both fins are shaped alike,
and are striped with brown and bor-
dered with bright blue. The dull
colored ventral fins are protected by
brilliant scarlet-colored spine, extend
ing three-fourths of an inch behind the
body of the fin. The pectoral fins are
we'll shaped, but transparent and color

Two Wicked Women.

One of the most invetefate gamblers
of any royal or imperial family in
Europe is the Grand Duchess Vladimir
of Russia, sister-in-law of the czar.
Indeed, her passion for games of chance
can only be compared to that of the ex-
king of Servia, and no greater compli-
mentcan be paid to her at the entertain
ments which she attends then to set
roulette going after dinner. The lady
who most panders to this vice of the
grand duchess-a vice which is viewed
with great disfavor by the czar-is
Princess Betsy Bariatinsky, one of the
best known and most influential leaders
of society at st. Petersburg. She is the
most worldly woman, without any ex-
ception. that know, and her entire ex-
istence is devoted to retaining her place
in the vanguard of society. Although
she rarely says an ill-natured word or
utters a sarcasm concerning any one,
vet the smile on the thin lips of the
princess, and the scarcely perceptible
shrug of her shoulders, constitute far
more damaging blow to the reputation
and status of the person under discus
sion than any mere words could.-N. Y.

Mr.. and Mrs. Ford, an invitation which
was gratefully accepted. Suddenly
Fred looked up, and with sound OF
triumph IN his voice, asked:
Mother, shall tell you just how W.
have come out this season.
Certainly, my SON."
1--WE have sold," went on Fred, rapid
ly, "since last March, one hundred
dozen of eggs, which have brought us
twenty dollars. We have sold twelve
tons of hay at fifteen dollars per ton;
seventy-ive bushels of potatoes at one
dollar per bushel; fifteen lambs that
brought sixty dollars, and for Brownies
calf we got six dollars. We have sold
fruit, wood and butter that amounted
to sixty dollars. We have expended
just two hundred dollars. This leaves
balance in hand of two hundred and
one dollars"
Fred hesitated a moment, and then,
dropping on his knees by his mothers
chair, and laying one hand on her
shoulder, he continued, earnestly:
This is saying nothing, mother, of
the corn in the crib, or the pork and
vegetables in the cellar, some of which
we can still spare. Don't you think 1t
will be safe on Thanksgiving day to
pay Mr.. Ford one hundred dollars of
the MORTGAGE"
Fred waited anSiously for his moth
er's reply. Tears gathered in her eyes,
and a moment later she threw her arms
around his neck and sobbed aloud. For
ten years her husband had tried to pay
this debt. 1t had been the burden of
his life, and yet not dollar had he
been able to pay. It was true that there
had been losses during this time which
had increased the expenses. 1t was also
true that the present year had been an
exceptional one. Still, she saw that
had the same forethought been exer-
cised in the past years as in the present
one, the debt of the farm might long
ago have been paid. She saw q
thoughtfulness and thoroughness in hel
darling boy that she and her husband
had never manifested, and her tear:
were tears of JOY and thankfulness fol
such a son.
Five years have passed since Mr.. Nor
toms death, and Fred's farm is in thor
ough order. He keeps several cows an(
has large flock of sheep. The house
has been newly painted and furnished
throughout, and every dollar of th'
mortgage has been paid.-Willard n

II is the same old gang and same old
game at Republican headquarters.
But it is not the same old conditions.
Secret ballot laws have been passed
since 1888 to make bribery and bull
DOING difficult. And the Republican
policy has been revealed since then.
The old tactics cannot win again.
