Hans Christian Andersen.

From a paper on Hans Christian
Andersen by Prof Hjalmar ii. Boyesen.
in the Century. we quote as follows:
THE conversation then turned upon
his writings, and | told him how his
stories had been the dearest books of
my childhood, and seemed associated
with all that was delightful in the
memory of it. told him how happy
and fiattered had felt at finding the
name of the little boy in Ole Shut
Eye the same as my own, and that half
unconsciously had appropriated his
experiences and half believed them to
be my own.
This little conversation seemed to
touch Andersen strangely. Tears
filled his eyes; he seized both my hands
and pressed them warmly.
"'Now you understand he said,
what happy lot it is to be the child
ren's poet.
Il rose to take my leave. but linger-
ed talking; and on my expressing a
desire to hear him read, he half rose
upon his sofa, adjusted his pillows,
and began to recite from memory
The Ugly Duckling.'

sational, full of caressing infections,
such as one employs in telling tale 10
child. In the pathetic passages he
was visibly affected, and he closed al
most solemnly.

said. 4 was myself the despised swan
in the poultry-yard, the poet in the
house of the Philistines.' | felt sud-
denly, as he finished his recital, that |
understood the man. Ihad caught the
keynote of his character. All that was
good and noble in him rose in vivid
light before me. l never saw him

Beautifying the Eyes.

According to the London Optician an
interesting case NAV soon come before
the courts involving the disclosure of
one of the mysteries by which the eyes
of fashionable lady are made daz-
zingly beautiful. 1t appears that in a
well-known street in the West End an
esta blishment exists of which the
speciality is the Identification" of the
eyes. Thither lady of fashion went
few days ago to be ~beautitied' pre-
paratory TO some social gathering
which she proposed to attend. The
operator applied to the ewes mixture
of which the principal ingredient is
supposed TO be belladonna, but, either
on account of mistake in the lotion or
through maladroitness in the spplica-
ton, the pupils of the lady's eyes be-
came so distended that shortly after
reaching the street she became almost
blind and staggered about helpless.
A friendly policeman found her in
this condition, and, with the best in
tentions, proposed that she should ac-
company him to the police station.
The unfortunate sufferer implored him
not to take her there, and by persuas-
ion and promise of reward induced the
constable 10 place her in a cab and
convey her to her doctor.
There she, in contrite tones. con-
fessed the dire results of attempting to
improve upon nature. Relief was
promptly forthcoming, and the ply
stefan warned her strongly of her folly
before sending her home.

Circassians for Sale.

Circassian boys and girls may still
be bought even in Constantinople, and
will be SO long as parents are eager to
sell their children. The government
may pass laws and honestly carry
them out, but a friendly transaction of
this kind cannot be prevented. As
the young slaves grow up, however,
they learn their rights, and naturally
they give trouble. But of late years
it has become a common practice in
households of the middle class to train
a Circassian boy, educate him-often
at Fobert College-and start him in
life with view, if he turn out well,
of marrying him to one of the masters
daughters. So with girl slaves also,
but less frequently. We have been
told by parents that such marriages
are nearly always happy. No shadow
of excuse can be urged for the slave
trade. But it will not be thought sur
prising after the facts detailed that
respectable Moslems find another point
of view. The Saturday RerieIC.

its about the same. The cod were

What She II rceived.

Some wears ago suit was tried be-
fore justice of the peace in a western
town, in which lady was plaintiff
and bank defendant, says the Youths
Companion
The evidence on the banks side was
strong and showed conclusively that
the plaintiff had no right to recover.
No one could have the shadow of a
doubt on this point. Her counsel knew
that unless he could get the sympathy
of the Squire" for his clieut hers would
be a lost cause. He therefore spoke
with gushing eloquence and warmth
of his clients rights and at last sue
ceeded in summoning up two large
tears, which he suffered to trickle down
his cheeks.
At this sight the justice, who was an
emotional and tender-hearted person.
was also moved to tears. The attorney
was satisfied that the sympathy of the
court was with his clisnt and closed his
argument SAYING:
ut does my heart good TO believe
that this honorable court in the exer-
else of sound discretion will not allow
the rights of noble woman to be
trampled beneath the feet of soulless
corporation.
Then he sat down. confident that he
should get judgment. Thereupon
the squire rendered the following COM
prehensive decision:
The plaintiff in this case is wo-
man, and her counsel has for the last
hour touched the sympathy of the
court in her behalf. and | am glad of
it. But think, under the law. that
justice is on the side of the bank.
therefore will find in favor of the bank
and let the record show that Mrs.
Blank has the full sympathy of the
court

Jenny Lind's Temper.

A Boston woman, whose name is not
printed. is reported BY the Mahogany
Tree to have taken singing lessons OF
Jenny Lind good many years ago
and to have found the Swedish nigh
tingale great scold. Her temper al
this time was such that she would
often fly into great rage and her
husband would have to entice her out
of the room to sooth her, after which
she would come back with affabiity
drawn over her wrath, SO oppressive
in her courtesy that the student hard
ly dared to breathe for fear of staring
her off again. The American con-
fessed that she spent more of her
lesson hours crying than singing, and
added: Her reprimands were often
personal. She would look at ME and
calculate; "Oh. you look SO ugly when
you sing," 1t was impossible to resist
apologizing for ones appearance when
she spoke like that. and that threw he's
into a new rage"

WHAT is HEART FAILURE.
Here IL q Pertinent Question Tor '"e
Learned Doctors to Answer.

We really wish our esteemed con-
temporaries, the doctors. would ex-
plain to US exactly what they mean
when they say that so-and-so has dled
of heart failure. remarks the Wasnlng-
ton Post with discouraged sigh. VI
course we know in a general way that
a citizen dies when his heart comes TO
a determined stop, and no doubt that
contamination might be loosely de,
scribed as heart failure on the ground
that it is the reverse of heart activity.
But the term is now employed as
though it described some specific COM
plant. like consumption or Bright's
disease, or diptheria, and we are
building up within ourselves yearn-
ing curiosity to know just what 1t
means.
Mr.. Thompson. we will say, IS a
large man, of liberal ways of life, with
a fiorid complexion. jocund nose and
a coming appetite for rum and water
He eats with catholic taste and Broo-
dignagian energy. He drinks as does
the painting hart which finds an unex-
pected fountain in the desert. Some
fine day Thompson dies with his boots
on. so to speak; that is 10 say, he
reaches for his glass of hot whisky tod
DIV. misses it. and passes. Several
eminent physicians gaze upon the
cadaver. wag their heads mournfully
and say Heart failure" Within a
week old Joskins, round the corner,
takes a tumble. Joskins is cadaver-
ons and lonp buiIt like a tunin fork
and equipped inside of him much like
the crane of song and story. He eats
little. drinks less. and mirrors his
generation in a bilious eye. Some
body leaves the door ajar and Joskins
blows out through The chink into
another world. Doctors come and
ponder him and say Heart failure"
once again.
We do not understand il. We wish
we did. What is heart failure, any
how? Is it a new disease. or is the
term merely q scientific subterfuge?

KEEPS BEES IN HER BEDROOM.
A Staten Island Girl Who Finds the In
dustrious Insects Quiet Companions.

There is girl in Staten Island who
has kept a hive of bees in her bed
room during the winter. She recently
told an Erening Sun man that they
were the most unobjectionable of COM
panions. They are quiet, orderly and
attend strictly to their own affairs.
When the warm weather comes they
will be sent out doors. where there
are beds of mignonette and other
sweet-seented flowers. which tue bees
fully understand are planted for their
especial use. This hive of bees is the
nucleus OF her contemplated bee farm.
Last summer they supplied her weekly
with thirty-six pounds of honey. For
each pound of honey she received 80
cents.
The profits of bee keeping are great,
the cost small. The labor of honey
raising has been materially lessened
for the bees by modern improvements,
and they seem proportionately CRATE
ful
The bees no longer make their own
cells, which are produced by machin-
cry out of wax. These artificial cells
are placed in the hive and the bees
seem to be glad to get rid of the labor
of making them. Immediately they
get to honey making. This business
they conduct alone. When the cells
are full the hive must be watched from
without. lest the bees begin sealing
them up. which they do in order to
| Law up their winters food. To guard
against this, additional cells are put
on top of the hive. called supers.
In these the bees deposit their extra
store. and this is reserved for their
winter outfit. When the bees begin to
seal the cells the box is removed. a
small machine is put inside which is
set vibrating, and this empties the
cells of their honey, which is drawn
off, aud the cells having been drained
arc put back to be reiilled. This
young woman SAYS that the bees know
her and are as tame to her hand as
doves. The occupation of honey maxi
ing has proved pleasurable aud profit
able.
