nicely by Justice Birdsal yesterday. Last

Mrs. johnson made demand for the shawl but
Mrs. Hutton refused to give it up and Mrs
johnson visited the police station.
Justice Birdsall did not issue warrant but
summoned the parties into court Mrs
johnson gave minute description of the
shawl and Mrs. Hutton admitted that she picked
it up on the street Mrs. Hutton gave up the
shawl and the matter was amicably settled

consider what the young man might

was, I suppose, q little note which lay
in his pocket. It contained these

The counsel for the defense said he

Tho Pen.

The earliest mode of writing was
on bricks, tiles, oyster shells, stones,
ivory, bark, and leaves of trees: and
from the latter the term "leaves" of
paper is probably derived. Copper
and brass plates were very early in
use, and a bill of feOffment on copper
was some years since discovered in
India, bearing the date one hundred
years B. G. Leather was also used
as we'll as wooden tablets. Then the
papyrus came into vogue, and about
the eighth century the papyrus was
superseded by parchment. Paper,
however, is of great antiquity, es-
pecially among the Chinese; but the
first paper mill in England was built
in 1888, by a German, at hartford,
in Kent county. Nevertheless, it
was nearly a century and half-in
1713-before Thomas Watkins, sta
toner, brought papermaking to any
thing like perfection. The first ap-
proach to pen was the stylus, a kind
Of iron bodkln, but the Romans for

which she will retrench, will look
we'll to the pennies and think and
calculate with the ablest flnancier.
She may be willing to pay 800 for a
gown, but will shop all over town to
save ten cents yard on the lining.
She may spend S. for a ride in the
park, but she will begrudge five cents
car fare when out shopping. She
may stint the table at one time and
be wildly extravagant at another. She
may ruin a whole garment by the de-
sire to finish it cheaply, which desire
has remOrsefully seized her at the
last moment, but there is one thing
in which she never economies. When
she loves she loves with her whole
heart. There is no stint-only a CIV
ing Of all the wealth Of her affection.
Therefore do not laugh at her little
economies; simply remember that a
woman to be wOmanly must be just
made up Of those contradictions that
seem so ridiculous to the average
masculine mind.

HER SISTERS HONOR.
A Tale of English Life.
By Walter Besant.

Il cannot bear it. How can 1 tell her?
Oh, I wish was dead! How can tell
her? will kill myself" She wrung
her hands. looking round the room as if
for some help or comfort there.
They all say that said the man.
But they don't do it, you know.
She pushed back her hair; then she
tore off her bonnet and let it fall, as If
the sight Of it oppressed her. The wild
look in her eyes and her white cheeks
frightened the man-brute as he was.
Come, Ruth, he said, -be more sem
sible. Consider-think little. Let US
part friends" He held out his hand as
one who seeks to conciliate. In it was
the little dagger.
She snatched it from him. NO." she
cried. Il will never tell Naomi. You
may tell her-you. I will kill myself.
Yes-let me go-let me 60. Twill kill
myself"
She fought with the strength Of despair
while he tried to wrench the weapon
from her hand. Then his-her-feet
caught, and they fell upon the floor-he
undermost.
When the girls shrieks called in the
housekeeper from the next set Of cham
bers. she was standing over Mr.. Harry
Stoke, who lay on his back-white in the
face-lying in his blood. Upon her
dress was blood; upon her hands was
blood, and in her right hand the paper
knife which she had torn from the ribs
OF the wounded man was dripping blood.
