A Costly Mistake.

Queen Victoria is said to have a
great fOndness for pearls. She has
taken care that all her daughters
shall have fine pearl necklaces. One
of her first purchases, after the birth
of each, has been two or three pearls,
and every year, until their marriage,
she has added pearl or two to her
stock until the necklace she required
was ready. In this quiet, economical
way she had been enabled to make
up almost complete rope of pearls
for each Of the princessess, and those
VINO have seen the necklaces at court
say that the daughters are, so far as
pearls 60, we'll supplied with jewelry.
Some years ago her Majesty bought
from well-known London jeweler
three very valuable pearls, the united
cost of which was not far short Of five
hundred pounds. A little while after
the purchase had been made the
merchant was surprised to receive a
letter from lady at court, which
read: ~The Queen wishes very much
to know whether pearls will burn. I"
The reply to this somewhat tartly
scientific inquiry was an assurance
that if her Majesty wished to oxy-
genie pearls for her amusement she
would find that they would burn in
az ordinary fire. The rejOinder
brought the secret to light. The
Queen had placed the pearls on her
writing desk. wrapped in piece Of
tissue-paper. As she was writing one
morning she used the tissue-paper to
wipe her pen, and then threw it into
the fire. The pearls, all unobseryed,
went with it. The ashes of the crate
were searched for them in vain.
They had been destroyed SO utterly
as to leave no trace. The Queen
with her own hands had cast three
splendid jewels, worth more than the
average income of her middle-class
subjects, into the blaze

love two men, and say it must, 1
love one as well as the other. It's
monstrous! At times I wish that some
deadly ailment might come upon me to
get me out of this tangle. Have pity
on me. dearest, and tell me what to do.

your heart were open before me and

BILE look of Indifference when he encir-
cled you with his arm, that calmness at
his coming and his going, that marble
composure the day the news came that
he had been challenged and must
fight. All, all, it all breaks upon
me with the hard, harsh glare
of reality after some delicious dream is
ended. No, you never loved NJ. de

or you would not have written me such
words. No one can jest at love who
has ever felt its terrible dignity. its aw-
full seriousness, its dread solemnity.

Gladstone has decided on the advice of his
MUSICIAN to limit his presence in the House
of Commons during the coming session. He
will attend the sittinss only on the days, or
rather nights when questions of importance
come up. Gladstone is now an old man. The
British Parliament sits only at nights, and
it is a severe task for him to continue these
labors. When We reflect that he has been
in public life ever since he was p years old,
