daughter is absolutely independent of her

There seems no end to the curious stories
about jewels lost and stolen. One of the
latest, says the New York Tribune, is that
OF Mrs. A, who recently took a pair of
large ruby solitaires TO be reset at IS
where they had been purchased. The
morning after, the maid brought her the
card of the firm, saying a gentleman wish
ed to see her, and on going down to the
drawing room, she found one of the clerks.
who told her that the stones which were
apparently of great value. were in reality
false and therefore worthless. Very much
agitated over the intelligence, Mrs A. as
serted that the jewels had never left her
possession since their purchase, any
claimed that the fraud must have been
perpetrated before she received them. This.
of course, the firm denied, but the feeling
on the subject became very bitter on both
oANCSs anu uEltCAlNNS were employed DIV
both to ferret out the mystery. When a
former butler of Mrs A. was proved to be
a discharged clerk of the well known Jew
oilers, the inference was obvious, although
no proof against the man has been found
and the jewels have never been recovered.
Martha Washington, says the New York
Recorder, did not die in the same room as
her husband, but in room in the garnet.

slight in winter, lighted only by dormer

The lower corner of the door of this attic
room is cut off. This was done for the con-
venience of the cat which was Mrs Wash
ington's sole companion in her lonely vigil
of eighteen months after the generals
death, a companion which the old general
himself had often petted.
1t was the custom of the family to shut
up for two years a room in which a death
had occurred. and this was the reason why
Martha and her cat moved to the shabby
and stuffy little garnet.
At a wedding in a little New England
town. the other day. says the New York
Times, the village DOCTOR who is the viii
lage joker, contributed to the hilarity of
the occasion in his wedding present 1t was
a bottle containing 1000 two-grain quinine
tablets, with the advice to the bride to take
two when tempted to scold her husband,
the desire being, it was asserted, sure
sign of malaria Unfortunately, no prophy-
latte for the distemper should it attack the
husband was provided-an obviously most
unfair distinction. The list of presents as
published in the village paper further in
cluded: zone breakfast caster, five pairs
of linen towels, sixty-two yards bleached
cotton CLOTH painted fire screen in three
sections, set of silver buttons for shirt
waist and sleeves, two embroidered table
covers. table mats, pin-cushions, stocking
bag, dust shovel, gem tins, and various
others articles too numerous to mention"
A Savannah girl writes to the Morning
News as follows: "Why is it we so often
hear men say, Il would not
marry poor girl. 1 am going
to marry one who is rich, as
though that would settle the question? We
sometimes hear this from men of wealth.
but in nine cases out of ten it emanates
from clerks and others who possess only !
small salaries and frequently smaller
brains. l wonder if they suppose that |
men who have striven to accumulate
wealth are going to allow their daughters
