"He That Giveth to the Poor Lendeth
to the Lord

Dining on one occasion with Baron
James de Rothschild Eugene Della
croix, the famous French painter, kept
his eyes turned upon his host in so
marked a manner that, when the COM
pany rose to leave the dining-room,
Baron James could not help asking his
guest what it was that so attracted his
attention. The painter confessed that
for some time past he had vainly sought
head to serve as a model for that of
a beggar he intended to hold promi-
nent position in painting on which he
was then engaged, and that, as he
gazed at his hosts features, the idea
suddenly struck him that the very head
he desired was before him. With this
explanation he ventured to ask the
baron whether he would do him the
favor to sit for him as the beggar
Rothschild being great admirer of art
in all it's forms, and pleased to be con-
sidered one of it's chief patrons, readily
consented to assume a character never
before undertaken by millionaire. The
next day found him at the painter
studio. De1acroix placed a tunic round
his shoulders, put stout staff in his
hand, and made him pose as if he were
resting on the steps Of an ancient
Roman family. In this attitude he was
discovered by one of the artists ia
vorite pupils, who alone had free access
to the studio at all times. Naturally
concluding that the model had only
just been brought in from some church
porch, and never dreaming the charac-
ter assumed by him was far from the
true one, he seized an opportunity when
his masters eyes were turned to slip
piece of money into the beggar's hand.
Baron Rothscild thanked him with
look, and kept the money. The pupil
soon quilted the studio. In answer
to inquiries made, Delacroix told the
baron that this young man possessed
talent, but no means; that he had, in
fact, to earn his livelihood by giving
lessons in painting and drawing.
Shortly after, the young fellow received
a letter stating that charity bears in
terest, and that the accumulated inter
est on the amount that he had so gen
erously given to one whom he supposed
to be a beggar was represented by the
sum of 10000 franc, which was lying at
his disposal at the Rothschild offices.

girls with alluring faces-the sort OF
beaute du diabTe of which Ouida is
always writing-eyes of most unholy
blue, and lips which could smile mans
soul away. A fascinating mink with
the most graceful and winning man
ners; being of moods, tender, repel-
liant, kindly and icy by turns, she had
created havoc and strewn devastation
wherever her dainty feet had trod.
Suddenly she wearied of the endless
round of gayety and fashion to which
from her teens she had been &C
customed, and amazed her coter1e by
declaring her intention of writing re-
alistic novels. Of course, every one
said It was merely a fad and would soon
blow over. But it didn't, that was the
astounding part of it.
Her first novel attracted more than
passing notice. She was commended
for her original and auda ;lOus style,
her clever plot and a certain dainty
feminine touch She was written
about, interviewed; her beauty and tai
ent were praised by the photographers,
and all the details of her luxurious life
were brandished about the country.
From being merely typical society
girl, a young woman of elegance and
fashion, she suddenly became a some
body to be pointed out and stared at
and raved about.
This spasmodic adulation pleased
Violet She had always Toasted upon
fattery, but now she reveled in it. She
threw herself into life of feverish
emotion, became cynical, disdainful,
and thought of nothing but her miser-
able ambition.

mania with her. She was always pratt

She made up her mind she had not
been misinformed when a month later
she met Jack Weatherby.
Weatherby was child Of the plains.
He had never been east of the Missis-
sippi and had an infinite contempt for
the land of the rising sun. He had
hunted for a living; he had been cow
boy, and raised as much of a rumpus
in mining camps as the next fellow.
Now he owned his own ranch and herds;
had settled down somewhat, and had
begun to think he would like wife
and home.

as the mustang he rode, and as tender
hearted as a woman-some women

Three Eccentric Wills.

That is they would all be con-
sidered eccentric to the refined taste
of the present day. There is So
ciety of Friends or Quakers in Dor
chester county whose founders set
tied in the county at an early
period in the history of the State.
A very exact and careful record
has been kept by the meeting of all
important matters pertaining to the
society. Recently their record book
was taken into court as evidence in
an important case. Among other
things found in the old record book
were three eccentric wills, or such
as most persons would consider &C.
centric. One of the requests ap-
propriated a sum of money to be
invested and the proceeds were to
be expended to purchase whiskey
to entertain travelling preachers.
The other will set apart sum to
purchase harvest Whiskey for the
poorer members who were farmers
and not able to lay in a sufficient
stock of this very important, in
those old days, harvest beverage.
The third will probably be CON
sidered the most unique of them all. .
A deceased husband hequeathed
one-third of the proceeds of his
estate to his wife as long as she re-
manned widow, but if she mar
ried again she was to have one half
of the estate. When the clerk read
this clause the court stopped him
and ordered him to read it again as
he had evidently made a mistake.
The clerk read it again slowly and
carefully and assured the Judge the
language of the document was as he
had read. Then the members of
the bar one after another went up
to the clerks desk and peeped over
his shoulder at the old document,
refusing ia be convinced till CON
firmed by their own eyes: that a
man ever lived who offered his
widow bride to marry again.
