ing the occupants of the other carriages
as they passed her, and was wholly OBJ
livious Of the admiring glances cast back
from them at her. She was thorough
bred and knew it, and one fancied, look
ing into her eyes, that there was coldly
critical air about them. Suddenly turn
ing away from gazing at her world, hav-
ing failed to recognize any one, her
glance for a moment fell upon him. In
stinctively she shuddered back into her
downy wrappings and averted her eyes,
with a startled look about the corners Of
them. She was too proud to make any
sign, although in her heart she felt
fearful dread of him spring up. His
eyes seemed to devour her, and the car
riage was delayed long enough for her
profile to burn itself into his brain. He
loved her, in his own vindictive way, at
first sight.
During the next fortnight he was in
variably at his place at the ratings and
saw her roll past in her carriage every
morning. He had discovered her resi-
dence and knew all about her goings in
and goings out. He had even in some
extraordinary manner become possessed
of her genealogical tree and had COM
mitted the names of her illustrious an
cestors to memory, curious manifesto
ton of interest for one with his ante
cedents. There was some sort of
fascination about him, too, for her, as
every time she passed him her eyes were
Iresistibly drawn in his direction for a
moment.
Jim had followed her carriage to the

A Hard Nut for Mckinley to Crack.


Mike Doran, a car driver in Washing
ton, who had been a diligent reader Of
McKinley's speeches and had been led
astray by his heresies, has received new
light on the tariff question. Mixes
mother in old Ireland sent him twelve
pairs of woolen socks, which were re-
ceived at the custom house by Mixes
cousin and brought to him with a re-
ceipt for three dollars. Thereupon Mike
addressed the following letter to Nc
Kinley:
DEAR SIR-I read your speeches in the house
of representatives during the Fifty-frst con-
gress when the tariff bill was under discussion,
in which you asserted and made me believe
that the foreigners paid our taxes. also read
your speech as presiding officer OF the Repub-
lican national convention at Minneapolis, in
which you asserted again that the foreigner
paid our taxes. My mother sent me q dozen
pairs of socks from Ireland few days ago
each pair being worth about twenty cents. My
cousin. who brought them to me, had to pay
twenty-five cents pair tariff duties on the
socks at the New York custom house. Will
you please be kind enough to tell me to what
foreign government shall apply to have that
three dollars refunded to me? II the foreigner
pays the tax, as you say he does, am entitled
to get my money back, but ! do not know Just
exactly to what foreign government to apply
and hope you will be kind enough to inform
me by return mail. Yours truly,
MICHAEL DoRAN.

Electricity in Fran ce.

Is electricity dutiable? Can it be stoleni
In France it was moot point until a
short time ago whether an electricity
supply company was societe civile or
a societe commerciale, a matter of no
little importance to investors, who in
the latter case would only be liable for
the amount of their shares. A societe
eommerciale, it appears, is one which
has for its principal object "the accom-
plishment of acts of commerce." such
ss buying raw material and reselling il
at profit, manufactured or in its nat
ural state.
The Edison company, of st. Etienne,
summoned before the tribunal of COM
merce of that town by one of its Gus
toners, declined to submit to the juris.
diction of the court ON the ground that
The supply of electricity from central
station did not constitute commercial
act; "the company only sold a product
which it gathered from nature and
which was res nullius." The tribune
Of commerce nevertheless declared it.
self competent to try the case, and on
appeal its decision was upheld, so that
in France, at any rate, electricity when
supplied from central station must bt

FIRST STORY,

which all the drain water, slop water and
everything else connected with the house
may find its way. The basement laundry
is altogether cooler, pleasanter and gener-
ally m1se satisfactory than one on the first
floor. It Is a pleasant place to can fruit in
the summer or to do other work of SINH
lar character. Such laundry is arranged
with small stove for heating water, a
sink, as mentioned before, and the pumps
for well or cistern water, or with city water
connection. In rainy weather the clothes
can be dried in the basement.
The second floor has four rooms over the
four rooms below and bathroom and rear
bedroom over the kitchen and porch.
Each of these bedrooms is provided with
sufficient wall space for bedroom furni-
ture. In each there is a closet, and an ad-
ditional one is placed in the hall for bed
linen. There is a stairway to the attic in
which there is large, square room, plas-
tered, properly connected and ventilated;
altogether very pleasant place. Build
ing a house in this way-four rooms on
each of the two floors and one in the attic
makes an economical plan, economical in
many ways. A compact, properly ar
ranged house contributes to the enjoyment
and satisfaction of all who live in it. With
the added social and other duties which
have come to American housekeepers GER

rrogressive Tax on Bachelors.

The bill for staying the .depopulation
of France, which M. LIE Roy is preparing
to lay before the chamber, is by no
means laughing matter, as the French
bachelor of the future may discover.
For among its provisions is proposal to
puta progressive tax upon bachelors,
while, on the other hand, creating q
sliding scale of taxation, to be reduced
in proportion to the number of children
in a family.
M. LIE Roy proposes to follow English
law in reducing the legal age at which
man becomes his own master to twenty
one, and in giving woman the right Of
compelling the father of her child to
recognize and provide for his offspring.
It was none too soon that this last pro.
vision became French law as well %

mediation. One goes into the reception
hall, finds a little screened vestibule in
which to hang up coats and wraps, which
affords place slightly removed from the
hall itself. This makes it possible to use
the room as something more than pas
sage. From this reception room one may
go into the dining room, up short fight
of stairs to a landing, and from thence to
the second floor. One can go to the second
floor by means of the same landing by go
ing up the dining room stairway. In this
sense the stairway is combination. One
goes from the dining room to the landing,
through the door and from thence to the
front stair landing and the second floor.
The kitchen is conveniently arranged
a pantry with cupboard under front stairs
and passageway to the cellar next to it,
q sink for the pumps and dishwashing at
one side of the wall and place for the
range on the other; then, connecting the
kitchen and dining room is little passage
in which is located the china closet. The
passage is lighted by window; the china
closet has glass doors above and panel
doors below. Back of the china closet and
kitchen is a porch These porches and
summer kitchens are frequently used as
| laundries. A better arrangement is to dc
the laundry work in the basement on a
cement floor, and to have sink which
connects with an outside drain or sewer to

By this is meant economical and careful
planning in the arrangement Of floor plan.
In the cost of the plan which is here pre-
sented one can see how the house itself
could be built for 1000 But the house is
not all that one needs for comfortable liv-
ing. A furnace, bathroom, mantels, gas
fixtures and other details would add some
$500 or $500 to the cost of the house. How
ever, this sum of money is relatively small

death from lightning. The house was
struck, the lightning passing down the

cut in two. Her neck and chest were
terribly burned and her clothing torn to

were broken and the walls of the build
