Two Nlisers.

An old miser lived in Connaught, and
seemed to be an utterly forlorn creature,
without "chick or child" belonging tc
non existent chick that such was its
state. for if it had had an existence it
would surely have lacked the means tc
support 1t. This old miscr was so mean
that he denied himself bread, and only
kept his miserable life in its tenement by
gifts of food from charitable ncighbors.
But he was known to have plenty OF
money hidden away in his wretched
shanty, and his neighbors at last got
tired of giving to one SO entirely un-
worthy.
For some days no one went near the
old man, and the cabin stood desolatc.
No one was seen to go in or out, and at
last the constable determined to take
the obstinate old creature to Jail. The
door was broken open, and the old
miscr was found dead. In his wretch
edly starved condition, and frantic at
the thought of leaving his loved money
behind him, he had died trying to
swallow some of his own bank notes.
Pieces of them were clutched in his
hands. and pieces of them in his throat
had choked what little breath remained
in his body.
The other miser displayed an equal
amount of cunning, yet was overreached
as completely. This second old misci
was blind, and lived with a half-witted
son near the seashore. Together they
managed to do little work, which sup
ported them. But everybody knew the
old man had '.bag Of money" slowed
away on which he could have lived with
o ut work ii he wished.
What to do with this bag Of money
troubled the old man greatly. He was
growing feeble, and felt he had not long
TO live. He resolved to take the bag ont
and drop it into the sea, where no one
but the fishes would ever have q chance
to benefit by it. But his son had sense
enough to suspect what the old man was
trying to do, and determined to outwit
him.
The old man, with the money hidden
under his coat, asked the son to row him
out to sea. So they started, but the son
took care to keep only in the shallow
water by the shore.
"Are we far out now" asked the old
man.
"Oh, yes, father" answered the boy.
''Sure there's water far about u.s."
So the old blind miser, with sly
smile, dropped his bag of money over
board, and the son, reaching out his hand,
had nothing to do but TO lift it out of
the shallow water and carry it home
under his own coat. And this old miser
died peacefully in his bed. cont, mt that
his artful scheme had been such a sue.

THE State silk factories of China re-
Gently received an order for 100000
pieces of red silk, each thirty feet in
length and four feet in breadth. These
goods are to be employed in the decora-
tion of the streets of Pekin on the occa-
sion of the sixty fourth birthday of the
Dowager Empress of China. The fac
tories intrusted with this work are the
imperial establishments in Marking, Futs-
chau and Hankow.

just What n Northcr Is.

"What is Texas northern" The
question was put by Globe Democrat
man 10 Major B. NJ. Nanderhurst, of
Texas, who was airing his Apollo Belvi-
dere figure in the glad sunshine that
crept under the awning of the Lindcll.
"A Texas norther, my inquiring friend,
is an extremely damp and disagreeable
wetness that crawls up out Of the hole
where the north pole used to hc and
swoops down upon the sometimes sunny
southland ut Nancy Hanks gait, catch
ing you with your mosquito-bar under
clothes on and your overcoat in soak.
1t is more penetrating than ammonia,
and requires but ten seconds to work
its way to the most secret recesses
of fat mans soul and cause him
to regard the orthodox hell of fire as
the one thing in all the world
most to be desired. When n
northcr has the victim in its grip he feels
tha. he has combination of buck ague
and congestive chills. 1t is the custom
in Texas not to make fire until some
body freezes 10 death. II would hc a
slam on the most delightful climate on
earth Few houses built prior to the war
had any provisions for heating. The
custom was when a norther announced
itself to keep piing on coats until it got
discouraged and gave up the contest.
That custom is still generally followed.
Northern people regard this eccentricity
of the Texas climate with extreme dis
gust. They go down there expecting to
find ten months of summer and two
months of early fall weather; TO revcl in
the glai sunshine and TO inhale the unc-
tuors perfume of magnolia buds all the
year. They get into their picnic clothes
and send their heavy weights to friends
back home to be given TO the poor or
packed away in camphor. Just about
that time n norther arrives and, for three
days, they long to go to Manitoba to get

DRESS FOR TRAVEL.

The travelling woman of to-day has her
wardrobe much simpliiied. The bag she
carries is full of little more than clean
cuffs, collars and handkcrchicfs and alb
solutely necessary toilet conveniences.
Possibly there is one very trig and pretty
shirt waist. For the dress, serge is the
favorite material. The skirt is snug
about the waist and free from the knees
down. II is on a very wide belt, which
assures a trinity held waist. 4 shirt
waist and jacket complete the costume.
With such a costume n clever woman
can make many changes and be fit for all
occasions. The usual shirt is dark wash
silk. Its collar AMI cuffs turn out over
those.of the jacket She wears one under
skirt of stout black silk. 1t is much
cleaner than any other material. She
also has several pockets made in her
dress. They are put in low down at
about the knee where the gown begins
TO spread and where filing them will
not interfere with the fit. The inside of
her Eton, the outside of her jacket and
the inside OF her cloak all have pockets.
Many are made with flaps that button
down over and make them quite safe
The sensible woman will also provide
herself with travelling cloak made OF
brown, blue or yellow silk. A good
model is shirred in yoke form ut the
neck. In back, at the waist line. the
fullness is also shirred, but the front is
loose. II hooks in front and has turn
down collar and full, pulled sleeves with
tight cuffs. No more useful garment
could be devised for long journeys.

MARK TWAIN AS a REPORTER.
Some of His "Fakcs Z" Would Make
Modern Hustlcrs" Blush.

cOfhC VI AAAo -'AofAC
Modern " Hustlcrs' Blush.
Mark Twain was fond of manufactur-
ing items OF the horrible kind, but on one
occasion he overdid this business, and
the disease worked its own cure. lie
wrote an account of horrible murder,
supposed to have occurred at Dutch
Nick's, station on the Carson River,
where Empire City now stands. He
made man cut his wife's throat and
those of his nine children; after which
liabolical deed the murderer mounted
his horse, cut his own throat from ear to
ear, rode to Carson City "a distance OF
three and a half miles and fell dead in
front of Pete Hopkins saloon.
All the California papers copied the
item and several made editorial com
ments upon it rs being the most shock
ing occurrence of the kind ever known on
the Pacific coast. OF course, rival Virginia
City papers at once denounced the item
as a ''cruel aud idiotic hoax. They
showed how the publication OF such
shocking and reckless falschoods" dis
made it as ''sultry" as possible for the
Enterprise and its ''fool reporters.
When the California papers saw all this
and found they had been sold, there was
a howl from Siskiyou to San Diego.
When Mark wrote the item he read it
over to me, and asked him how he was
going to wind it up so as to make it
plain that it was a mere invention.
"Oh, it is wound upnow," was the re-
ply. " 1t is all plain enough. ! have
said that the family lived in little cabin
at the edge of the great pine forest near
Dutch Nick's, when everybody knows
there's not "A pine tree within ten miles

throat from ear to ear, when any fool
must see that he would fall dead in a

FASHION NOTES.

Yachting costumes for women are far
more stylish than nautical.
Sleeves differing in fabric from the
dress continue to be favored.
There does not seem TO be any decrease
Of the shirt waists popularity.
A cool wash hat for a little girl is
made of gathered frils of chambray with
a cluster of daisies where it turns up in
front.
Eulalia has made the red sailor hat the
fashion with one bound again.
In these days dealers tell us that brio
a-brac is a real drug on the market.
Very few OF the stylish skirts have any
great amount Of fullness at the waist
Black and white, in all combinations,
will be in style for the coming season.
Skirts made of black crepon and worn
with plaid silk blouses are practical and
effective summer dresses.
English stock collars and Shakes
pearian rundown collars are favorites
alike for basques and blouses.

A Great Drought.

Just century ago, 1898. there was in
France a great drought similar to the
one just passed through. Heavy rains
fell in the early months OF the year, but
from April to the middle of September
the sky remained always cloudless and
the sun shone with great brilliancy. Dur
ing five and half months there were
only few drops of rain. May and June
were very cold, but in July the cola
north wind ceased and broiling heat
set in. The thermometer suddenly rose
from below the freezing point to 100 to
$50 degrees Fahrenheit in the shade.
Objects exposed TO the sun became so
warm that one could hardly touch them
without burning the fingers. Men aud
women succumbed to the heat. At last.
on September Is, series of rains began,
which refreshed the earth.-I New York

TO ARRANGE A SEWING ROOM,

A most desirable adjunct to house
where much sewing is done is a room set
part exclusively for sewing room. II
eed not be large and it should not be
arpeted or contain more than the ncces-
lry furniture, but the convenience of
,ch room, where one may be sure of
hiding needles and thread, pieces of
gowns, braid and all the accessories of
dressmaking and repairing, can hardly
be over-estimated. The floor should be
stained and vanished so that its daily
brushing up will be easy to do. The
sewing machine should be placed in a
strong light by window; from hooks
on the wall should depend all the family
piece bags, the pieces carefully sorted
shelves should be put up to hold boxes
OF buttons, trimmings, patterns, etc 4
cutting table or lap board is, of course,
indispensable, as is a low rocking chair,
without arms. A long mirror in which
the full length of ones figure may be seen
is the greatest possible convenience, and,
il cutting and fitting is accomplished
without the aid of professional dress
maker. a dress form saves the time and
temper OF some member of the family
who must otherwise serve rs dummy.
