time gave the matter my attention. How
much the thought Of pair of brown eyes
had 10 do with this resolution cannot
say.
For ssvsral days wandered round ths
various places Of amusement and interest,
with . vague hope Of meeting her again.
One evening strolled into the opera
house, and stood near the door where
could observe all who entered. My
patience was rewarded, for the two ladies
came In Just befsre the curtain rose. A.

all the evening, falling more hopelessly In
love each moment, and this without know
ing II she were married or single.
At the close Of the performance,
managed to keep very near them. As
they passed me, my brown-eyed beauty
dropped her fan. sprang forward, picked
1t up, and presented 1t with the most
gracious bow at my command. She
thanked me most graciously, and passed
on and entered q carriage, leaving me in .
state OF bliss bordering upon imbecility.
A week passed without my seeing her,
though haunted the principal thorough
fares by day and the theatres by night.

Gate Park one day, / again met her, ac-
companied by the same elderly lady. They
were examining some rare orchids. When
her eyes met mine, distinctly saw pink
flush steal over her lovely face, and fancied
/ saw q smile in the brown eyes, but she
bent over q flower, and I passed on,
mentally cursing my luck at my inability
to obtain an introduction.
They soon passed out and took .
shady seat in the park. / sat down a.
near as possible without being obtrusive,
and taking out q paper, pretended to read.
In reality, I watched her over the top.
Presently they arose and passed on, and
saw with q thrill Of delight, that my
divinity had left her portmonnaie on the
seat. Instantly q spirit OF covetousness
took possession of me. must have that

pairs, found their capacity for resting

much habit with them that they could
not stop without "going 10 pieces.
What does it profit man to gain

much more rational it is To take little

Carried Grants Famous Message.

John B. Lynch, watchman in the
money order building Of the postoffice de.
partment, received notification OF his dis.
missal He went home, got his records
and discharge papers as u private soldier
and carried them TO Mr.. Enright, the su-
perintendent of the building. The rec
ords showed that he had served through.
out tho civil war with distinction; had
been wounded AZ Antietam, and being
disabled for field duty had been appointed
orderly TO Secretary Stanton.
After the battle of the Wilderness,
when Grant had not been heard Of for
seven days, Lynch was intrusted by Pres
ident Lincoln with the dangerous task Of
conveying dispatches To Grant. Lynch
succeeded IN his mission, and brought
back Grants answer, which contained the
famous sentence: II will fight IL out oh
this line if IL takes all summer" On
learning these facts Mr.. Enright promptly
rcinstated Lynch within an hour of his
receipt Of the notification of his dismissal.

THE ALTHORP LIBRARY.
The Collection of Literary
Treasures.
SOME VERY RARE BOOKS
Many Of the Volumes Of Priceless Value
Examples of the Work Of Early
Printers.

Already the first consignment OF books
from Lord Spepcer's famous library has
reached Manchester, and soon the Long
ROOM" the ''Od Book Room," the Bill
lard Room" and the Large Library" at
Althorp will have lost nearly every Inca
ment with which Time and the Book Col
lector have been impressipg them during
hundred years. writes a correspondent OF
the London Graphic. Many of the state
ments which have recently appeared in
print with reference TO the sale of the II
brary have been more or less Inaccurate.
The real facts, so far as they are known,
are these: Earl Spencer placed the sale Of
his famous library in the hands of Messrs.
Sotheby, Wilkinson and Hodge, with two
specific conditions-that it should, if posi-
sibe, be sold in one lot as library, aud
that it should not 90 out of the country.
AS all the world knows, IL was bought by
Mrs. Rylands. but the price paid for it Is
not known and will not be known unless
Mrs. Rylands chooses to mention 1t.
From the first there was very little chance
of the library being broken up and dispersed
by auction throughout the civilized world,
because. had not Mrs. Rylands or some
other wealthy English collector come for
ward, negotiations were in progress to sell
the whole library TO an American million
aire. Happily that fate has been averted.
and the AlthOrp library remains in England.
In December. 1S49. Lord Macaulay wrote:
Il am curious TO see that noble library-the
finest library / believe. in England" The
next day the great historian wrote: After

fair lost his dog on June q and advertised
for IL on June %. Murtha owned dog
which had been lost a year, but day be-
fore the advertisement appeared his dog re-
turned home Hammesfahr found out about
Murtha's dog and then claimed it as his
own. Mnrtha refused TO give it up and the
other brought q charge of grand larceny
against him, besides taking out
writ of replevin and furnishing bond
of $1,000, which was demanded by
Murtha's counsel Then Murtha replev-
ined the dog on his own account and the
other mans counsel insisted that large
bond be given. Murtha's counsel said they
could 60 TO any extent; Hammesfahr then
said he would be satisfied with $780, and
Murtha qualified in SCI, 600, $4,000 for the
dog and S11, 900 to cover Hammesfahr's bond.
While the dog was in the jurisdiction Of the
court the constable had a sleepless time OF
it, thinking of the heavy responsibility he
had assumed, and built structure especially
for the dog. The trial resulted in testimony
which favored Murtha as the owner, and
Judgment was given in his favor. The end
is not yet, for Hammesfahr intends to APP
peal, and the case may resolve itself into
repetition of the famous Western ''calf
case"

braids affected by the ladies of classic
Greece. one passed on through the quaint
headgear of medieval times in France, such
as the headdress affected by Isabeau de
Bayiere in her later DAYS and by her
daughters and the ladies of her court, down
to the feathery rnglets of the Louis XIII
epoch, and so on to the eXtravagances of the
era of powder. Here is reproduction of
the famous couture in which q ship at full

NIT of the hish-raised, much-powdered
locks OF a fashionable belle, the mimic ocean
in which the vessel rests being composed
of crlnkled pale-green gauze interviewer
with pearls.
Also very odd to our modern taste seems
the way in which Merveileuse of the D-
rectory has her red gold locks cured in a
close crop all over her head, and adorned at
the back with bunch OF tightly curied ring
