Der Ladies' Home Journal. | once
heard of a lady who wrote down in or
der the particular fears and anxieties
which were harassing her, inclosed the
paper and sealed it, hoping by this kind
of mechanical continuance to be en-
abled in some sort to dismiss the SUBJ
ject from her mind. The paper was
put away and forgotten. Several
months later it came to light, when she
found that not one of the fears therein
set down had been realized, and the
difficulties had all been smoothed away
before she came to the time for theil
solution.

THE CHATEAU DIFF.
Alexander Dumas Visited the Scene
of His Greatest Work.
From the London Daily News

From the London Daily Newsl
On one of his visits to Marseilles, Just
before 1870, the year of his death, Alex
ander Dumas visited the Chateau DIFF.
Our Paris correspondent writes: Old
Grosson, the custodian, who has Just
died, showed his visitor over the dun
geons with his usual thoroughness. At
the proper place he showed him the
hole in the wall through which the
Able Faria communicated with Ed
mond Dantes. "This hole," said the
custodian, "the Able bored with a fish
bone. Alexandra Dumas says 500
''Then, said the visitor, "Alexandre
Dumas was acquainted with a good
many things. Perhaps you know
him?o "Know him. exclaimed Gros-
| friends" ''He is glad of it, replied
the great romancer, slipping two gold
louis into the mans hand, which he
grasped. Grosson complained of the
stinginess of the municipal authorities,
who left the custodian OF the Chateau
DIFF dependent on the generosity of
visitors, merely allowing him to live
rent free. l saw him a year ago for the
last time. The poor man was already
in his dotage. People were teasing him
about his yarns. "You know Monte
Cristo?" they suggested mockingly.
"Don't you know he never existed
replied Grosson, pettishly. 81 will
show you the cell, if you like, but the
whole thing is fiction.n From this |
know that poor old Grosson was draw
ing to his end. Pere Grosson had the
whole history of the castle at his finger
ends. 1t was genuine history, and even
better. His yarns, repeated and amend
ed in the course of half century, and
improved with gleanings from the wit
and erudition of many thousands of
tourists, made him one of the most in
teresting personages it has been my for
/ tune to meet. He finished by believing
in his own tales, and his listeners were
ready to plunge with him into dream
land. Around the rocky coves of the
island of If, lavender, fennel, and rose
mary grow like weeds. The fishing
smacks ply the sea, painted in bright
colors, with strange sails-the descend
ants, for all we know, of ULYSSES ships.
| Even the gloom of the castle is south
ern and oriental. Perhaps the charm
of the Chateau DIFF is due as much to
the fascination of Dumas's romance as
to individual impressions.

TALKS ITSELF.

Our Democratic exchanges. after the
first nauseating effects of the tariff dose
were over, had with poor grace whip
ped into line and begun to figure out
for the farmer how greatly he was to
be benefited by the new tariff sched-
ules. To begin with it would save
them thousands OF dollars on grain
sacks alone. But of what advantage
it that when coupled with information
brought by cable that Russian barley is
being shipped to this country at price
equivalent to As cents, and the price of
corn dropped in the Chicago markets
in consequence two cents a bushel and
wheat five-eights Of cent Can the
farmer see the benefit? Democratic
organs might well cease interpreting,
for this thing called the tariff bill will
do it's own talking.-Genesee Nea0s.
