Was Sold.

How an Ambitious French Woman
Was Sold.
An amusing story was told some
wears ago of a certain Madame de S.,
a French woman of high social ambl-
tions. She was anxious to become ac-
quainted with and be known as the
friend of persons of high rank, and she
left no stone unturned to further her
interests in that direction. Returning
from the country to Paris one day in a
railway carriage, as the story runs, she
fell into conversation with a renurka-
bly well dressed but quiet and reserved
man who sat on the seat opposite.
After q while she CHANGED to mention
impressively that she had observed that
the Countess Lemoine was passenger
in the next carriage, and, to her salts
faction, she found that the gentleman
to whom she had been talking was init
mately acquainted with her. or the
countess establishment and circle OF
friends he told her a great many in
teresting particulars.
So pleased was she with the talk on
this subject-proving her acquaintance,
she thought, to be 4 man of decidedly
high position in Partisan society-that
she ventured to make what was even
for her a bold stroke, and asked him
for his card. politely requesting his
company at her next soiree.
The train arrived.
Madame de S. alighted on the same
platform with the countess. She looked
then to see the familiar recognition she
expected between the lady of rank and
her new friend. But what was her sur
, prise when the countess. holding up her
finger, beckoned unceremOniously to
him. and said:

She soon regained consciousness, and
she was not seriously harmed by her

"Oh, love, my precious one, why did
you put yourself in the power of that
scheming woman? You must let me

Of sunlight, which acts chemically On
the blood, increasing the heamog1obin;
