nav make the circuit of many years;
but come back to US they will as GER
tainly as that God sits on the circle Of
the earth. Jezebel, the worst woman
OF the Bible, slew NabOth because she
wanted his vineyard. While the dogs
were eating the body Of Naboth, Elisha
the prophet put down his compass, and
marked q circle from those dogs clear
around to the dogs that should eat the
body OF Jezebel, the murderess. 'Im-
possible" the people said; "that will
newer happen" Who is that being
flung out Of the palace window? Jezebel.
A few hours after, they came around,
hoping to bury her. They find only the
palms Of her hands and the skull. The
dogs that devOured Jezebel aud the
dogs that devoured NabOth. Oh, what
swift, what an awful circuit.
But it is sometimes the case that this
circle sweeps through a century, or
through many centuries. Tho world

which meant great deal to them. for even
in those primitive days the citizens took
great deal Of pride in the towns and
municipalities in which they lived.
But no one as yet thought of Questioning
the right OF Andrew Manderson or any
other man to do exactly as he liked with
what belonged to him. And that these
properties did belong to Andrew Manderson
could not be questioned for a moment.
The legally recorded transfer settled that
question forevrr-or seemeo to do so.
The Palace Hotel property fell into the
hands of Andrew Manders0n next. The
people were not stunned this time. They
had not recovered from the mental leth-
arey induced by the tennis court and the

II this respectively were right. Yet the
whole city was startled when it became
known that Andrew Henderson had pur-
chased the Stanford and Hopkins man

make room for a private residence which
would occupy the entire block.
My readers ought to be told, l think,
that the Stanford and HOPKINS dwellings
occupied the present site Of the historical
library building, which was then consid-
cred the most commanding residence loca-
ton in the city. Both structures had, in
their time. been the homes of mil ionaires.

man made giant strides and it is fortunate
for us of to-day that the soul of man kept
pace with the W wonderful growth of his in

intellect developed so rapidly in these
days. For more than a century previous
every possible condition had been paving
the way for the gigantic awakening. and
to many the thoughts and feelings which
now became popular were neither new nor
original. They had been thinking and
feeling and prsaching-some even living
that way for many years.
The newspapers Of the period began to
agitate these new found principles and be-

thoroughly awakened to Its past errors.

THE OLD FLORIST.
A City Sketch.


There is florists little shop Just across
from the window where spend my days
for l am one OF the "shut-ins." have
watched the growth of that old mans
business since he brought his flowers
every morning 10 the corner in wheel
barrow, all made up in punches. and stood
there ill dark. After awhile he took
possession of this shop. little better than
a shanty- one OF the shabby buildings that
still stand ON some of San FraDcisco's
busy streets. He has fairly made the
dingy place to bloom with his many
posies. and know it Is fragrant. though l
cannot 60 to see.
He is rather a queer old man, the pro-
prietor OF this little shop. he attends
strictly to business, and never stands In
the doorway when customers are few to
chat with the man of candies next door,
The children are afraid OF him; they sell
dom stop 10 look at the flowers. and never
think of running in and out as they do at
the candy-store. l have often wondered
how he employs his time when ne is not
arranging flowers for customers; although
that keeps him very busy, for people
seem unable to pass the place without
going in, and they come out carrying
bunch of fragrance, or wearing a tiny
bOutonniere.
l wonder if he has family; no one ever
comes that seems to belong to him. can't
imagine him as caresSing a child. think
he must live all by himself and spends his
life caring for the dainty blossoms he
loves so well-fOr he must love them, or
else he could not persuade that lovely lily
to bloom so glOrlously-it stands in his
doorway.
This morning he put another flower be-
side the lily-a pot of lovely carnations.
How the children coveted those blossoms
as they trooped by from school. One little
group even gained courage to step up and
bury their noses in the flowers. although
they kept a watchful eye on the owner.
He came out in moment and the children
prepared for flight, but he seemed to speak
and they stood still. Then l saw him cut
the blossoms off and give one to each child,
and carry the despoiled plant back into
his shop.
The children talked minute and sepa-
rated, each carrying his precious flower.
One of them came toward my window. and
l saw he was my own nephew.
"Oh. auntie." he called. may I come
in?"
nodded. and soon he was by my side.
Just see what that nice howerman gave
me-" he exclaimed, holding the lovely
flower for me to smell. Isn't he goOdp
He gave one to each of us six. and we
aren't afraid of him any more. Just think.
His little girl died the other day, and this
was her own flower. he said he'd rather
give it to us than sell it. Isn't that funny ?
should think he'd want some money for

his buttonhole, while l sat repenting of

his lonely struggles. NJ. Il.

after the completion of his adobe resi-
dence. He frequented Montgomery street
a great deal in those days, and nearly every
sunny morning could be found promenad-
ing back and forth between Market and
Pine streets. He seemed particularly in
rerested in the magnificent business struct-
ures known as the Crocker and the Mills
buildings.
People noticed this; even the papers
took it up, and it soon became noiSed
around that the richest man in the world
was abont to put up business palace that
would totally eclipse either of these splen-
did buildings.
But Andrew Manderson's work in San
Francisco was destined not TO be con-
structve. One dav it became known that
the Mills building had been sold for price
almost double its enormous value. There
was but one man who could have been its
purchaser,
Folks marveled at the sale of the Mills
building aud could not believe the rumor
until the transfer was actually made. 1t
had been paying property TO the man who
built it. No one could have desired a
safer or more remuneratve investment for
their money than this building had al
forded. 1t had never been for sale.
Still it was sold.~ SO much was certain,
for within a week from the date of trans
fer every tenant in the building received
