Lavving Over the ChemeIeon Craze

Lawing Over the Chemeleon Craze.
The chameleon craze has developed
a knotty point of law in Montreal. The
Canadian criminal code prohibits cruel
ty to domestic animals And under
that law a merchant of the city was
arrested for exposing reptiles in the
window Of his shop. When the case
came I'D in court the question arose
whether a chameleon is a domestic an
imal within the intention of the law
when a chain is attached to it. On one
side it was contended that it is not, be-
cause it is not ''tamed.' and on the
ether side it was asserted that. though
the reptile is not tanned" it is "tar:1e."
and. therefore, domestic. The police
magistrate has thrown the case out Of
court, but it is intimated that it may
be appealed to the court of the highest
resort, and possibly final appeal may
he taken to the queen.--New York

A Cinderella Story Without the Fairy
God-Mother.
[CONCLUsIoN.]

Miss May Gregory, the into whose
possession the shoes passed, was Lowell.
creature on somewhat large scale
and Laving only lately left school, sht
was desperately anxious to be married
So anxious was she, that matrimony
was the first consideration, and the
man only the second. she had two
lovers, whom she called Jack and Tom,
and she was so fond of both that she
would have married either. Her papa.
who knew her pretty well, said she was
a setiIhental goose, and he was SO
feared by both Jack and Tom, that
when they heard his voice in the Silly
night asking who that was playing the
guitar beneath his daughters win
dow, they leaped the orchard wall aid
ian.
"You can't marry both," Mr.. Gre
CORY explained grimly to Miss May;
"and as they would only make a man
between them, it is obvious that you
can marry neither. No tears, please,
and let me hear less nonsense about love;
who ever heard of girl loving two
men at oncep"
Miss May thought her papa very un-
feeling, and pointed out that, of course,
she only loved one of them. Her trag-
edy was that she could not decide which
one.
My own idea Is that they were so
very much alike that lady could not
be Indifferent to the one and love the
other. But am bachelor, and often
wonder how young ladies can choose
young man out of SO many young men
of the same pattern and hold him
higher than the rest. Financially Jack
and Tom we're easily distinguished,
however. Jack had ready money but
no prospects; Tom had prospects (he
said) but no ready money. You may
be sure that she considered this no diff
ference at all. She had sufficient
money and prospects for both herself
and husband, whichever one be should
prove to be.
Though it was in the city that Miss
May bought the shoes, 1t was in small
country town that she first tried to get
into them, the town where she and her
severe papa lived. She was going to
the theatre that night, and to Gretna
Green afterwards, if the fates proved
friendly. It was her father who was
to take her to the theatre, and Jack
who was to take her 10 Gretna Green.
The arrangements had been made clev-
erly as you will see.
For nearly half-an-hour did the car.
riage wait at the door before she was
ready to step into it. When she at
last Joined her father, who was fuming
for he detested being late for the play,
her face was red. l wish I could say
that this was because she was blushing
or had been crying over the impro-
priety of the contemplated runaway
marriage. But 1t was not. She was
merely red in the face because her
fight with the shoes had been pro-
tracted. She had gained momentary
triumph, however, for in her own
words, she had got into them" True
