why the Postage stamps Are Poor.

WASHINGTON. Feb. l6.-The subcom-
NIT, es of the house committee on appro-
priations, which has in charge the def
cheney appropriation bill, has decided not
to include the proposed paragraph to dis
continue the government postage stamp
agency, over which there has been some
discussion ny the senate and house COM
mittees. When the postage stamps were
printed by the American Bank Note COM
pany in New York under contract. there
was established n 5; amp agency through
which all the orders and accounts passed,
while the agent. DIR. W. r. Davis, repre-
sented the government and haGgencral
oversight of the work under contract.
When the contract vas given to the bu-
reau of printing and engraving last sum
mer. Dr. Davis brought his force to Wash
ington and OBLIGATED as the Intermediary
between the bureau and the postoffice de.
partment. There has been no little fric-
ton between the agent and the bureau
ever since
DR.. Davis has reported tina. the work of
prin ing amps was poorly done, and that
the department was badly hampered by
the failure of the bureau TO fill its or
ders promp ly. There has been dissatis-
faction also because the bureau has ignor-

partment. The usual appropriation for
the agency was included In the postotlice

proposed to amend the bilkby striking out

WASHINGTON, Feb I6.-The senate con-
fined itself strictly to business, and as
result passed the postoffice appropriation

As he was making his way to his ac-

the shoulder
Read this" he said, handing him a
note.
Edward opened 1t and read hastily:
My Dear Mr.. Mcdonald: My physi-
clan has forbidden my leaving my
room. Fortunately I am able to send
you substitute in the person"
The first notes of the organ an

Allen was forced to leave the rest OF
the message unread and hurry to his
seat.
He did not look at Miss Edmanson's
substitute until slender figure in
mourning rose to sing with him ana
then a glance revealed to him the face
of Esther Morton.
By mighty effort Of the will he mas
tered his emotion and began to sing.

RAMS HORNS.

DO the wounds made by friend ever
heal?
The man who wrongs his brother de-
fies his God.
Sin is detective that never gives up
or turns back.
Only those can sing in the dark who
have a light in the heart.
A good man is a living witness to the
fact that the devil is a liar.
1t is foolish to do nothing because we
cannot do everything at once.
A sinful woman did the first work for
the devil that was done in this world.
The devils cause is booming when
Christians quarrel among themselves.
Our faith can be measured only by
what we are doing and enduring for
God.
Isn't there something short-sighted in
trying to get rich without first getting
God?
What shall it profit man. if he
shall gain the whole world, and lose his
own soul?'
Is it not true that the man who finds
money in following the devil, finds it to
his souls cost?
If God will bless the work Of our
hands, why undertake to do anything
without his help?
The man who is not willing to be good
is an enemy to God no matter how near
the pulpit he sits in church.
The devil has no quarrel with the man
who thinks he can be a Christian with
out making any change in his habits.
Don't you know that there are church
members who are afraid to ask the Lord
to go with them to their places of bust
ness for fear he will take away their
prosperity?

A EEAUTY'S ANGER.

Great Sensation.

One of the Partisan Queens Creates a
Great Sensation.
The scene is Mentone, a resort foS
consumptive people, but which becomea
fashionable. since few members of the
light squadron of the army Of beauty
have decided that Cannes was stuck
up, Nice, dusty and vulgar, Monte Carlo
good enpassant only, and that Mentone
would do better than any other place
as the headquarters on the blue coast
Lame de Pougy was the first to start
the movement when she fitted up at
Mentone the daintiest of the villas,
which is always en- fete, and looks
every evening like an enchanted bower
She felt like the queen of the place. and
behaved as such till the day of the bat
tie of the flowers came, when she ex-
pected to be crowned by her admirns
subjects. She arrived last on the
scene, so as not to mar the effect; she
appeared standing, driving tandem, her
carriage completely hidden under a
thick bower of carnations, roses and
hyacinths she herself being got up as
bunch of lilacs of different shades, from
the deep reddish Charles x. to the pail
est Persian, and then pure white. A
murmur of delight received her and her
vanity was almost satisfied; but how it
happened nobody knows, at the distri-
button of banners she received the
smallest and most Insignificant one.
The superb beauty took it with a grin:
then. pulling from her hair long dia-
mond pin, which held two punches of
lilac, she pricked the satin and tore a
big hole in it, then handed the rag to
her groom with whisper. The man
broke the golden handle in two and
threw the whole on the ground. After
this the tandem was turned around and
the offended beauty drove home. Till
now the story is not extraordinary, but
the point comes with the worthy mayor
of Mentone, at the same time president
Of the committee of the battle. who
few minutes later drove to the enchant-
ed bower, insisted on seeing the fairy
of the place and actually asked to be
forgiven for an involuntary and much
deplored error, but the punches of lilac
nodded mercilessly and said mo" and
the fair LANE, after having shown the
door to the ineonsolable dignitary, de-
clared that she was leaving Mentone on
the morrow After that the banquet of
the committee turned out to be a fail
ure and almost battlefield, the MEM
bers putting the fault on one another'S
back, and Mentone seriously thinks of
rebuking the authorities who have stu
pidly offended and driven away such
superb signboard from their sleepy hole.
