occurs in Hawthorne's Marble Faun:

genius, or endowed with awful beauty, have
always some little handiwork ready to fill
the tiny gap OF every vacant moment. A
needle is familiar to the fingers of them all
A queen, no doubt, plies it on occasion the
woman poet can use it as adroitly as her
pen; the woman's eye, that has discovered
new star turns from its glory to send the
polished little instrument cleaning along
the hem OF her kerchief, or to darn a casual
fray in her dress. And they have greatly
the advantage of us in this respect. The
slender thread of silk or cotton keeps them
united with the small familiar, gentle in
terests of life, the continually operating in
fuences of which do so much for the health
OF the character, and carry Off what would
otherwise be dangerous accumulation of
morbid sensibility. A vast deal of human
sympathy runs along this electric line,
stretching from the throne to the wicker
chair of the humblest seamstress, and
keeping high and low in species of COM
munion with their kindred beings"

and Was Tripped by the Quiet
Man.
There was a social party gathered
in the porch of pleasant country
house, and one Of the gentlemen had
just told the story of the criminal
condemned to death by some ancient
ruler.
He was to be beheaded, and as the
executioner stood beside him with
drawn sword the culprit was given a
goblet of wine to drink. He turned
to the King and asked as last favor
that the executioner be directed to
hold his hand until the goblet of
wine had been drained
"You have my royal word" said
the King, "You shall not die until
you have drained the cup"
Thereupon the ingenious criminal
dashed the goblet to the stone floor,
spilling its contents, and thus defer
ring his death sentence indefinitely.
The story happened to be new to
some of the party, and was greeted
with so much favor that another
gentleman endeavored to cap it.

"Quite as interesting as the other"
exclaimed a lady, when the narrator
had finished.
"Shows that there is nothing new
under the sum-" chimed in another.
"Hum-yes," said small quiet man
