A Pretty story Of clever French Critic
and His Two Friends.


and His Two Friends.
Many odd aud amusing stories are
told Of the clever French critic, jules
JaDin, and his friends. None is more
pleasing or more to their credit than
one in which Janin, Theodore Burette
the historian, and Leon Satayes, the
author and critic, figured
One Of Janin's best friends was an old
aunt, who sent him to school when he
was boy, kept house for him and took
good care Of him when he, n young
man, was making his reputation, but
not much money, in literature.
II was perhaps in memory Of her that
he made protege Of poor old woman
whom he noticed one day in the street.
He placed her in a home for aged per

other garret it was reached by climbing
great many stairs. Slowly and pain

flights. She had to sit down often to
rest. It took her nearly two hours to
reach the top. Janis was breakfasting
with Theodore Buretto.
He received her with great cordiality
and affection, and the three had a happy
breakfast. The two men devoted them
selves to entertaining her. They in
quired all about the home, the rules, the
diversions, the food, her recent illness,
and listened with genial interest to all
she had to say. She said goodhy, and
they made ready 10 escort her down

said, and placing themselves ON either

stairs. But the effort and excitement
had been too much for the feeble old

An artificial eye is not made in the
form of a globe, as many people imag-
inc, but is much the shape of half wal
nut shell, though not so deep, and very
thin and light Even this, however,
causes irritation if kept in the socket
constantly, and case lately came un-
der my observation in hospital of a
young man who had worn a glass eye
continuously, night and day, for several
years, with the result that an inhamma-
ton started in the socket, which will
probably prevent his ever wearing one
again. n.-LondOn Tit-Bits,

two years ago, and i have never smelt

THE LATEST IN SLEEVE BUTTON,

FTUHI tHt JtWbIeF5 OIFeUIHF.
Single sleeve buttons are larger than
ever. They are worn chiefly by men, and
women who effect masculine dress. They
prevail in dead gold. The more elaborate
have a section in repousse work. A new
style has a vertical border of raised work,
and is altogether commendable. Smaller
buttons of twisted cords and folded tapes
are square, and usually different metals
or tints, which is not a new but a persist
ent style. The still smaller buttons with
bars show the same mingling OF lusterless
gold and repousse work. In n style the
bar has fiaring raised ends and a plain
band iii the middle, which seems to be
suggested by a paper ready for the mail.

MHo Is snLKING NOW.

Under the above caption the Kansas
City Star has the following:
Senator Hill followed up his Brooklyn
speech by n rousing appeal in behalf of
tariff reform at Buffalo on Saturday night.
On the latter occasion as IN the former,
he placed special emphasis on the fmpor-
lance OF Thorough unity of action among
The democracy and the urgency of subor-
dineting all factional differences to the
success of the party in the presidential
v The Senator was cordially well
coined TO the former home of Mr.. Cleve-
land, M the meeting was distinguished
by unusual enthusiasm. Thus western
New York responds to the keynote which
has gone up from Manhattan Island and
and Kings county, and seals the pledge of
democratic victory in the great empire
state. Tammany has rallied to the SUP
port of the nominee of the Chicago con-
vention, not because he reflects the prin-
ciples of hat organization, but because
party success means more to that society
than the suicidal qualification of jealousy
and revenge. The support which it will
give will be none the less effective for that
reason.
Before the Chicago convention. while
the mentioning of Hills name was SEN
ding cold chills Nancy Hanksing up and
down the mugwump spinal column, and
driving the ex-postmasters ETC., into
conniption fits for fear the ''old job
was desuetuding, it was the threat of
certain people that they would not sup
port Hill if nominated and the prophesy
of many others that he would not near
get the full democratic vote. This was
a declaration plain and simple that there
were many democrats who were not
good enough democrats to support the
nominee of the party should that nomi-
nee, perchance, be the able and illustri-
Gus democratic senator from New York.
It was considered reasonable by this
sort of a democrat to not favor Mr..
Cleveland's nomination, but the ulti-
mate of party faith and loyalty to de-
nounce Senator Hill and declare against
him even if he were the nominee. Even
in this county of intelligent democrats
there were men who carried their asin-
Unity to the extent of disseminating their
patronage to this paper because it had
Die courage and manhood to demand
ia r treatment of David B. Hill.
The INTELLIeENoER r~ejoices that all
this is past now and that even mugwump
papers like the Kansas City Star are will
ling to do justice to democracy's great
est champion, David Bennett Hill.
