A PUZZLING QUESTION.

How is one to know when she is
doing kindness, and when she is
offering an insultP asked the business
woman dejectedly. She had taken off
her rubbers in the hall and was warm
ing her feet and drying her skirts bv
the CHEEKY little fire on the sitting room
hearth.
What do you mean ? said the woman
of leisure, laying aside her book; and
the busy mother OF four boys under
ten said the same thing as soon as she
could take the pms out Of her mouth.
She was putting a patch on her second
sons knickerbockers.
Well, I'll tell you, said the busy
woman. As l came along the street
this evening, | saw woman in front
of me who mad about half yard of
hounce trailing in the mud after her.
| assure you walked behind her for a
quarter of block before | could make
up my mind what to do, I didn't
want to speak to her about the gown.
But | thought of the good Samaritan,
and the Golden Rule, and she hath
done what she could, until | braced
myself up to overtake her and say, in
my sweetest manner, | beg your pardon
madam, but your ruffle is torn, and l
have pin. Shall just catch it up
for you2
And what do you suppose she did
| She turned on me with the look Of an
Insulted tragedy actress, and said in
the most cutting tones. You needn't
trouble Yourself | can pin it up for
myself if l wish to, and then stalked on
leaving me speechleSs.
You were very foolish to have said
anything about it, said the woman OF
leisure, calmly. You should have let
her ruin her gown at her own sweet
will. Only today, when | was out
saw nice looking elderly lady walking
up Broadway with her skirts clutchec IN
both hands, in the good old fashioned
style. The hem of her petticoat was
Just above her boot tops. But do you
suppose l was so lest to myself as to
stop her and intimate that she could
lower her draperies six or eight inches
without anv risk of their touching the
sidewalk Not |.
Now, don't know about that, said
the busy mother, laying down the
knickerbockers. One muddy day this
winter | went to the bakers, and just

gentleman as love2 inquired Clayton,
with the most exasperating empha-
sis.
Ruth burst into a hearth laugh.
Clayton sat aghast at this new develop
ment he had expected her to be
dumbtounded by the revelation, but
evidently he had miscalculated.
Perhaps, if it 50 amusing, you will

| will at least explain In tennis,
if not in human afflirs, love is synony-
nous with nothing. Thus, if my side
had gained thirty points and my
opponents noAe, l would call the score
3o-loye, which signifies thirty to
nothing. Perhaps this may enlighten
you.
Can that be true, Ruth said Clay
ton, his whole manner changing.
II you had accepted that invitation
that afternoon you would have learned
the fact for yourself
Humph observed Clayton very
pointedly. He also made some other
remarks which as they were only
intended for Ruth, | will not repeat.
When he bade her good night, nearly
two hours later, he said: Ruth my
actions must have appeared very
ridiculous in your eyes. And Ruth
laughed happily as she answered /:
Hardly in keeping with one who is

THE ETHICS OF COURTSHIP.

A clever woman once said: 81 consider
an engaged girl as practically dead to
her family and society. One year after
marriage she will come back to normal
conditions, but before then you might as
we'll leave her alone" Sweeping as this
statement is, yet for the credit of the
American girl we are told there is too
much truth in it. Although we are told
that "all the world loves lover" still
it is difficult for the ordinary observer to
feel kindly toward two young hearts who
are so selfishly absorbed in each other as
to violate the laws of good breeding and
ignore the right of others.
There are many girls who never appear
at such disadvantage as during the
days of conrtship. They become unami
able in their own homes, negleotful Of
their friends, anG even deteriorate ment-
ally. 1t may be truly said that one of

MEN AND THEIR MONEY.

In the modern race for wealth
men are impelled by rivalries lmpos-
sible in the Middle Ages, though
these have bequeathed to us-ac-
cording to M. Ryan-but one in
stance of man perfectly free from
the leprosy of acquisition
Sir John Lubbock, however, has
given US a nearer example; for,
travelling few years ago in Swift
zerland, he paid q visit to distin-
guished archalogist whose income
he found to be only sIoo a year,
part of which the savant expended
upon the maintenance of a small
museum.
He valued his leisure and oppor-
tunities lar more than silver or gold,
and would not waste any of his time
in making money.
The money makirg faculty may
be regarded as special gift, not
necessarily of a very high order.
The history OF the so called Bonanza
Kings of Colorado is striking COM
mentary upon the abuse OF the gen
uine spirit of enterprise.
Absolute inaptitude for business
was their most general characteristic.
Rich to-day, almost beyond the
dreams of avarice, their improvi-
dence was such that few months
often sufhced to bring them to abso-
lutte beggary.
| Another American millionaire,
whose wealth was admittedly due to
high qualities of commercial sagacity
and integrity, has complained OF
being completely enslaved by his
money. With financial success
come cares, responsibilities, and
there is no escaping them. A rich
man ought to be judged pretty gen.
erously He has great deal more
to contend with than people who are
not rich are apt to suppose.
These, however, are extreme cases,
and the pecuniary pleasantries which
so often reveal human idiosyncrasies
lie, as a rule, much nearer the sur.
face.
Fonteneile has left us a character.
istic story of the trait of closeness in
money matters, not the less effective
for the wit with which it is told. Or
one occasion, at a sitting OF the
French Academy, the Able Reigniel
its secretary, made a collection il
his hat OF one pistole from every
member to defray the current ex.
penses.
The Able did not observe tha
the president, who was very avari
cious man, had put a pistole into The
hat, and presented it to him seconc
time.

believe it, but | did not see it
replied the Able. And |, said Fon
tenelle, who was by his side, saw it
but did not believe it.
Perhaps what are known as wind
falls have been more ruinous to mul
