HOY He Wore His Shoes.

mel Jack Gambill said to group OF ac-
ouaintances one day, "that I did some
thing when a growing boy out i'll Old
Tennessee that has never been done by
any one before or since.
"What was that, colonel?"
II wore out my first pair Of shoes
without both feet being shod at the
same time. s"
Explain. y
"You see, it was this way. Shoes
were novelty to me. The shoemaker
was slow, and was impatient, as all
boys are, for a new thing. He finished
one of the shoes on a Saturday and told
me would have to wait another week
for it's fellow. l couldn't stand that, SO
I took the one shoe and wore it to such
an extent that when l went for the 9th
er [ had to leave the first one for re-
pairs. 1t went on this way week after
week. and somehow never could bring
that pair of shoes together on my feet.
The family was too poor to think OF buy
ing me an additional pair. Odd thing,
wasn't it, to have one foot in leather
and padding the hoof with the other?

The Natural Death.

The natural death is no utopian
dream. Both longevity and euthanasia
are within the reach of mankind. Not
a few have already secured both, while
many more may find them. | have seen
the man. He was old He had neither
pain, anger nor sorrow. Finally his in
tellect began to lose its power His am
bition changed to a desire for repose.
His ideas of space time and duty lin
gered for moment, then passed away.
Step by step his powers waned. HaI-
PLY, painlessly, carelessly the moments
flew. The merry sounds of youth at play
and the hum of the busy world only
rocked him gently to sleep On and on
he passed until his intellect ceased and
consciousness was no more. This is the
true euthanasia. 1t suggests no terror;
it inflicts no pain; it brings no agony.

snakes known to naturalists, and only
four kinds of snake or snake-like
creatures are to be found in England.
OF these, but one is poisonous, and it
isvery rare. The ordinary snakes to
be found in the countries inhabited by
civilized man are harmless, and but
few of the poisonous snakes are deadly
In their poison, even though the effects
may be serious. A study of snakes
and their ways would do much to do
away with the educated fear of the

AND STRING.
1t is true that We're the action made
rs was an instrument that IIelmholz
discusses in one of Ais essays, and were
it arranged SO as to be somewhat out
ofproper condition, it would, if it were
conceivable that one could appreciate
the fact that overt ones below the
higher octave continue to sound after
the fundamental has died away, dif-
ference could he made in quality. 1t is
this fact, that 1t Is conceivable that an
instrument could be made whose single
tones would have difference in quality,
that renders the di discussion of this sub
jcct interesting.
John Sebastian Each refused to
adopt the use of pianofortes in place of
the clavichord, for the single reason
that he preferred variety in quality to
variety in quantity if he could not have
both. There is no apparent limit to
the variety CT effect that one may OBJ
ta:l in combining tones, but the great
gain that would be ours if we could
command vcriety il quality where the
use Is made of individual tones only is
incalculable.
"Where 50 much is accomplished on
old and primitive lines, it Is my belief
that vastly more can be done when the
manufacturer has the artists practical
collaboration,
st is marvellous, this power of the
pianist to produce gradationa in color,
tones which are as SPARKS. of fire and
others that are as duh as lead, with
this thing called touch. this quality
that individualizcs the playing of an
artist and so largely goes to character
ize his ability for good or for bad; but,
if cause and effect were thoroughly un-
derstood 1 believe that what now is
done almost entirely from impulse and
emotion might be accomplished with
far more security and open up grand
possibilities There is enough that is
subtle in all branches of art without
leaving unlearned that which is tangi,
bic and can be brought into intelligent
uss."

She rose hastily, drew her black lace
veil over her face and slipped away in
the crowd After moments hesita-
ton, the count followed her. He want
ed to make her some fiattering speech,
tc see those soft cheeks redden once
more, and those wonderful eyes raised
10 him in gratitude, when he should
tell her that he renounced the kiss un-
less given willingly and that he would
redeem the saints image even with
out so sweet reward, for no other
reason than that her name was also
Elena. But he had hes;tated too long:
she had already disappeared in tho
crowd. The count elbowed his way
recklessly out, but she was nowhere to
be seen, neither on the steps nor in the
Jiazza. Could she have slipped out
by another door? He ran around the
church. No, there was no other en-
trance. Perhaps she was still inside.
He entered the cathedral again Choir
boys and acolytes were eXtinguishing
the lights. She was not there.
But wait, what was that? A slen-
der female form with black lace
mantle over the head, All, there she
was at last She stood before the pull
pit in earnest conversation with a
black cassock which could hardly be-
long to anybody but Padre Sebastiano.
Now the old gentleman turned
around. 1t was indeed he. The sound
of footsteps had attracted his atten-
ton and when he recognized the count,
he opened the little bronze door under
the pulpit steps and pushed the lady
through
The count rushed up, seized the good
priest by the arm and in his excite
ment said to him in German What
have you done with her? why do you
hide her from me? Am 1 to have my
kiss or not?"
Padre Sebastiano placed his broad
back against the door and waved the
excited man gently away. A broad
smile lighted up his kindly face and he
cooed softly to him, Gently, gently; be
quiet, be quiet my son! She has
changed her mind, the little pigeon.
You shall have your kiss, excellenza,
but not here in the lighted church.
The poor little thing is too timid."
"Of couse, of course; in outer dark
ness, if she likes it better" cried the
count impatiently. Then he tried to
get hold of the door handle.
EXCUSE me a moment. Do you
happen to have tine one thousand lire
by you? If so, l must beg you to"
and with an insinuating smile he held
out his open hand.
The count felt in his breast-pocket
and said with an angry shrug: How
suspicious you Italians are. Well, I'll
pay in advance" and hastily took a
red bank-note from his pocketbook and
pressed it into the hand of the priest.
