Did some one fall over something?
Yes. Itwas Claude. He did not have
his monocle Oh, and he has fallen into
the fountain.
But now he is out again and at the
door. The young neiress goes to meet
him. They gaze into each others eyes
earnestly, as though in search of some
thing, but all is vacancy.
1t is what they expected.

They belong to her father.
For some little time they sit and look
at each other.
She and Claude, I mean.
Then she says: Claude, we are to be
married at 9:45. Would you like lit
tie something to eat first?''
He said, 'By all means,'' and she
struck the table lightly two or three
times with piece of board, which stood
near, as signal to a servant, who
brought in cold joint. Claude had un-
fortunately said once that he liked a
cold joint.

Claude did not know that his wife
had been talked about a good deal. He
could not have believed that this slight,
quiet girl of 80 had been correspond

AS he looked at her admiringly he
could hardly believe that this treasure
was his with SO little effort, for he had
hardly seemed to raise hand to bring
about his marriage. AS he toyed with
her dainty scissors, slyly trimming the
fringe from the edges of his cuffs, he
felt that his mission to America had
been accomplished
just then her father came in.
'Violet, are you married again?''' he
asked, taking off his coat and stretching
out on the bed
'Yes, father,'' she said sadly.

He did so.

Government Time signals.

As the governments time signals are
not generally understood, it may be said
that the United States time ball is drop
ped from the top of a flagstaff ON the
dome of the Masonic temple as follows:
The time ball is hoisted to the top of the
staff, $50 feet above the level of the
lake, FIVE minutes before noon, central
standard time, every day SUNDAY ex-
ceptedl, remains mast headed FIVE min
utes and is dropped by electricity exact
" at the instant of noon. Should any
accident occur by which the time ball Is
dropped before the exact instant of
noon, it will be hoisted again imme-
diately and left up until five minutes
after noon and then be slowly lowered,
instead of being dropped. Similarly,
should the time ball fail TO drop exactly
at the proper instant, 1t will be kept up
until five minutes after noo and then
slowly lowered.-Chicago Tribune.

Last summer a man i'm my employ
exhibited an act of presenceof mind and
self control that might well be compared
to the deeds of daring ON the field of
battle" remarked John L. Nevins, a
New York contractor. 1.-Two workmen
were engaged in repairing the lightning
rod of the steeple of o church. To ac-
compligh this somewhat difficult and
dangerous task IL had become necessary
for N of the workmen to stand ON the.
shoulders of his companion. While in
this position a sudden gust of wind
caused him to spill a quantity of molten
lead, which fell ON the hand and arm
of his friend. Notwithstanding the sud-
den and intense pain. the brave man
never finched and had the courage to
remain motionless while the lead burn
ed its way into his flesh. He knew that
q movement OF his was liable to precipi-
tate his companion from the dizzy
height into the street below, and he en-
dured the pain rather than risk the life
of his fellow worker. st. Louis Globe

London Abuses

AT o recent meeting in England Of
the Liberal Federation of Women such
startling things were told by women
who had been investigating the need of
municipal reform that their speeches
were constantly interrupted by cries of
shame upon those responsible for such a
condition of things. Lady Henry Somers
set, in the course Of a speech demanding
the appointment of police matrons, said
that she had asked permission to pass q
night in a police station, but had beer
refused IN the ground that the sights
and sounds there were unfit for her to
see and hear. Miss Belgarnie said that
she knew Of woman being brought into
q station in o state Of absolute nudity,
and that the inspector in charge was the
first one to think of wrapping her inehis
coat. Equal need of women al factory
inspectors was demonstrated. Elk
