He Made q Mistake.

To j. S.-We think that the young
lady's indignation has a just foundation
in your impertinence-that is, if your
own statement of the affair be taken as
the basis of facts. You had no business
to hint that she used cosmetics even if
you did honestly think So" Her ring
ing for a glass of water and Offering that
and her handkerchief to you to enable
you to test the matter ON the spot by
washing her cheeks was a masterstroke.
She did a sensible thing in putting the
question beyond doubt by rubbing her
face, when you declined her offer, with
her damp handkerchief, and then did a
most becoming thing when she rang for
the servant to show you out, stating that
you wished to retire. That was well
done. Such a spirited girl as that can
have no need of cosmetics. You made a
mistake and must now abide the conse-
quences. That seems to us about the
whole sum and essence of the matter

Dumas and His Economical Son.

Alexander Dumas. the great French
story writer, was very fond and proud of
his son Alexander, who also became a
famous author. His regard for him was
increased apparently, by the fact that
the son had a very good appreciation of
the value of money! quality which the
father did not possess in the slightest de-
gree.
A recent writer of r~ecollections relates
that he once visited Dumas at st. Ger
main. He had just been bitte2 in the
hand by his dog and was unalxS 10 write.
but was debating a novel.
His son went out as the visitor came in.
Alexander has just left me-" said the
father. what a good fellow that boy
is! Just fancy, this morning I received
$50 francs. He said to me, I'll take sc
francs of it. I didn't quite hear and
thought he was going to leave me only
so. So I called out, Hold on! Let me
have 100 of it at leastv But I tell you
Pm only going to take 5Or he called, out.
oh, OH said I, 4 thought you were go
ing to take the 600. Well, take as much
as you want"
And Dumas added proudly, What a
golden hearted fellow Alexander is, tc

A VALENTINE.

Accept, dear wife. this little token.

You'll find the love I've often spoken =
The love I'll always love to speak.
Our little ones are making merry
With unco ditties rhymed in jest,
But in these lines, though awkward very.
The genuine articles expressed!
You are so fair and sweet and tender,
Dear, brown eyed little sweetheart mine.
AS when, a callow youth and slender,
Iasked to be your valentine. .I.
What though these years Of ours be fieetings
What though the years of youth be fiown2
I'll mock old kronos with repeating,
''IH love my love and her alonet"
And when / fall before his %reaping,
And when my suffering speech is done,
Think not my love is dead or sleeping,
But that 1t waits for you to come.
So take, dear love, this little token,
And If there speaks in any line
The sentiment III fain have spoken,
Say, will you kiss your valentine?

A Natural SuppositiOn.

Awoman planning to remain very late
in her country home found difficulty in
persuading her city servants to consent
to remain. She thereupon tried to pro-
cure some native assistance and found
it necessary to begin with a maid of the
village who was willing to see what she
could do in the waitress line.
The methods of the work were care
fully explained to her, and she seemed
to understand its requirements.
How hopeless the situation really was
showed to the amused employer when
the girl finally said, Il suppose after I've
set the dishes on the table you can do
your w reaching, can't you?"
She was not engaged.-New York

St. Dunstan and the Devil.

One of the most famous smiths of the
Weald was st. Dunstan. archbishop of
Canterbury. Mayield in Sussex is the
site of an ancient archiepiscopal palace,
and here, according to some, took place
the terrific encounter between St. Dun
stan and the devil. At any rate the an

to have belonged to the saint are still

A Duchess und Her Diamonds.

When the Duchess of Marlborough
made a flying visit to America about a
year ago, she dressed very simply and
wore few jewels, three or four dia-
mond stars in her hair and on her cor
sage being, as a rule, her only ornaments.
Some people expressed disappointment
that she did not appear in her coronet.

her crown on her head and a scepter in

A Story of u Painter.

Rossetti was both romantic and
shrewd, and among Yankee spectators
there are few keener men of business
than was this childlike genius. Yet he
treated the purchasers of his pictures
with scant courtesy. George Rae, a bank
er and a fine judge of art, had bought
several of them, but he objected to the
price Rossetti had set on ''The Bride"
A few days after he returned, and Ros-
setti greeted him sarcastically.
"What do you want for your picture?'
asked Rae.
"Three hundred guineas."
"Why, you offered it to me for $50"
81 really don't remember" was the
lordly reply; perhaps I did. But why
didn't you take it? Well, you may have
it for e30O. If the odd shillings are of
any use to you, Rae, you're welcome to

Clerical Criticism of Gladstone.

A reverend parsonage named Porter,
preaching the other day at st. Thomas,
Nottingham, actually announced from
the pulpit that he "abhorred" Mr.. Glad

pieces of silver, but Mr.. Gladstone sold
his mother, the church, for 30 Welsh
