A man of the world was won't to call
not infrequently upon young widow.
One day the pretty maid at the door an
nounced that her mistress was out of
town. On some pretext, however, the
man entered. He also talked to the
maid. Some days later, knowing that
the lady had returned, he called again.
He was bit surprised when strange
maid met him at the door and showed
him to the little reception room. While
she carried his card up the stairs he re-
flected that she was not SO dainty as her
predecessor, and she was not so pretty,
though her uniform was similar, and
her cap was as stiff and her apron as
spotless. He was realizing how much
more the woman is to the dress than the
dress is to the woman when the maid
returned and announced promptly:
"Mrs. - is not receiving" The man
of the world bit his lip-it was the first
time he had ever been denied admit
tance-and moved toward the door. The
maid held it open for him, and as he
passed through it she blurted out, "And
she says, if you please, sir, the maids
receive in the kitchen, sir. ILLUSTRATED

A LIFELONG

From the Portfolio Of A Rambling Artist
eEQH q HNlfo V

A bright, fresh May morning smiled upon
one Of the loveliest landscapes in nature,
and revealed to the eye of a wandering
young artist picture of such exceeding
beauty that he found it impossible to con-
fine his attention to his canvas sufficiently
long to produce the faintest semblance of
the loveliness which reigned and revelled
around him.
What a grand effect" he mused, sis

presently disperse. II I could catch the
hue of that many-tinted mist, and throw

The same, bat Duasr.nt.

Two letters were once addressed to q
certain corps commander Of the Army
Of the Potomac on tho eve Of forward
movement. one Of them written by Gen
eral Halleck, chief Of the staff, and the
other by President Lincoln General
Halleck's letter contained n warning
couched in this fashion: ''In undertak-
ing to place your command ON the oppo-
site shore Of the Rappahannock you will
exercise extreme caution in affording
full protection 70 advance, rear and
fianks, in order that the enemy may not
be encouraged to make an attack while
your forces are separated in the act Of
crossing" This was good advice. Lin
coin gave it to the same commander in
the note which he wrote to him. but
this was the form in which he expressed
it: Look out, when you cross the river,
that you don't hang yourself up in the
middle like q steer ON fence, neither
able to hook with your horns nor kich
with your hoofs."

RritIsh Cart Hor.es.

The British cart horse's descent can be
traced from the great horse originally
imported from Flanders and Lombardy,
but much improved since those days by
judicious crossing and careful selection
of parents. The Stuarts first introduced
quality, but size was wanting, for when
William III assembled the throne and
sought to drain the Lincolnshire fens
he found that the British cart horse of
this date was not strong enough for the
tasks imposed upon him. Consequently
he imported large Dutch horses, the old
Lincolnshire Blacks
The Dukes of Ancaster also brought
over to this country similar breeds from
Holland. This was the first step of any
note which gave an impetus for the i'm
provement of our coarser equine stock
and formed the main root from which
our cart horses have proceeded. Mine

:rna rrees Kent Awake.

Electric lights are playing sad
havoc with shade trees in towns and
villages" I" said a visitor recently. "The
effect Is to make the leaves appear as
though they had been subjected to a
blighting breath. Arboriculturists say
that the lights keeps the trees awake,
and consequently they are tired to
death. Trees need sleep and rest as
we'll as any other thing in nature, and
the lack of this rest causes the leaves
to droop. This solution is probably
correct, as It has been noted that sim
liar trees In the neighborhood Of those
affected, but removed from the ex-
posure of the illumination, retain their
strength and color. =" Philadelphia

A GOOD STORE FOR FULL VALUE.
 Robertson's shoe stores, New Milford and Ansonia, are stores at which you can always depend upon finding shoes of the best quality made and always too at the lowest prices possible for the best grade to be sold at, and lower toos than other shoe stores can afford to sell at, for two important reasons: First; Robertson's shoe stores look to the man. ufacturers for their profit, and get it by discounting every bill. Stores without sufficient capital are compelled to look for their whole profit to their customers as they buy on long time from the man. ufacturers and in consequence get no discount on their bills. Second, Buying for two stores enables Robertson to handle large quantities of footwear, quantities impossible for small stores to look at. This means cheaper buying and the getting of better styles and quality. Most people living within days journey of either store think of trading nowhere else but at Robertson's.
