Dexter's conscience gave twinge, bu
he also was delighted to be SO noticed
and his eyes laughed shyly as he dre'
her on.
"How could you know me SO quickly ?
he asked.
INV sister Hetty has told me all abou
YOU. That you are clever and fine AM
chivalric, and she says you can teach m
all want to know"
"And what may that be-"
Daisy blushed again. She looked int
his willy face with tender, thoughtfu
light in her limpid eyes.
II am dying to know about this thint

presently; want to hear you talk
now"
Daisy flushed rosy red, and Dexter
hooked the scissors over his thumbs
1t was enhancing TO see this beautiful
bud unfolding before his very eyes.
She told him about the convent; how
they said their prayers and asked
Heaven to protect them; how the dear
sisters ignore such worlG-minded things
as gladden. the heart of women; but her
own soul was filled with yearning for
domestic tenderness and she longed to
be like real, everyday people and learn
everything and help to do her part in
the world; she was very fond of chill
dren; she clasped her hands in her ear
nestness and tears filled the blue depths
of her eyes.
And Dexter, like an ancient war horse,
hearing the sound of the trumpet,
warmed up to the occasion.
He gave the rein to all the sentiment
that surged in his mind. Was not such
q chapter needed to soften his steel-cut
story?
He narrowed his mind and raked his
l~ain for tender, fanciful language to
paint Dan Cupid. He got "Romeo and
Juliet" and ranted as much as he could
without peeping in the book.
"How beautiful" cried Daisy.
He got Tennyson and read until his
voice grew hoarse, and Daisy still MUIR
"Beautiful-oh, how beauti-
fulw
She wanted to hear more about love.
Dexter made bold resolve. He knew
a little song that his sister had taught
him ages ago-one only-and he had
worked himself up to SO wild and reck-
less pitch that he went to the piano
and thumped out some sort of accom-
paniment to:
st love thee. love tflee
! swear by the stars above thee!
and sang six verses of it with chorus
Zach time.
Daisy sat in trance and murmured:
"Beautiful-oh, but you do make such
beautiful music!"
Suddenly he looked at his watch and
found that hours had been consumed in
this pathos. He sprang up to go.
"Oh, thank you'll" cried Daisy. II will
think over all the beautiful words you
have said. / could never have dreamed
It ALL"
"You dear little dimpled darling"
thought Dexter, and ne could scarcely
refrain from saying it aloud.

Once at his desk, he tore down from
her stills his wooden heroine, while the
fever was hot within him, while the fire
burned.
But what the dickens did she mean
by so much blushing?" he continually
asked himself Sand she was afraid
afraid I'd never notice her. Poor little
thing!"
He smiled until his mouth ached.
He never wrote with such enthusiasm
before. He even let in a verse of the
song he had sung.
'She says ! sang it beautifully" he
murmured, and hummed softly the re-
frain, 81 love thee"
Day after day Dexter found sweet
Daisy with the thimble and rufile,
stitching away, and equally ready to
talk or to listen--the incarnation Of
youth and womanliness. She always
greeted him with that smiling, rosy
blush
But what the deuce does she blush
about?" he asked himself over and
over, and was always on the watch and
striving to solve the mystery.
MIR. Dexter" she once told him, 81
don't believe forget word You ever
tell me. OH, am going to astonish
you some day-see il don't''-and she
spread her pretty hands over her burn
ing face.
Dexter stepped about" as lively as
young boy. He took Daisy driving,
and his friend, meeting him, a sly look
passed between them.
But letter came for Daisy; she was
called home-all the way to Texas
and she showed openly that it grieved
her to the core.
Just when / am doing so well,r she
pouted, "and SO happy and content"
Dexter really blushed himself-the
first time in IS years.
There is something I will have TO
hurry up, Mr.. Dexter; 1 have made mp
my mind to ask you to-I mean want
you to tell me-show me-exactly how
they act when they are truly in love.

THE TROUBLE IN BRAZIL.
1t Is Probably Due to the Claims Pre-
sented by Italians.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 26.-The recent po-
litical conflicts in San Paulo. Brazil, be-
tween the Italians and the Brazilians as a
result of which there are rumors that the
Italian legation TO Brazil will be with
drawn, may have had some connection, 1t
is believed here. with the claims which the
Italian government has against Brazil for
damages inflicted its subjects during
the late civil war in that country. There
were a large number of these claims and
an arrangement was arrived at by which
it was thought they would be adjusted A
protocol was signed containing a clause
providing that claims concerning which
the two governments could not reach an
amicable settlement should be referred 10
the President of the United States for ar
bitration. President Cleveland had already
given his consent to act as arbitrator. Very
recently the protocol was submitted to the
Brazilian Congress for its ratification but
that body refused to agree to IL. and it may
be that the Italian government has taken
umbrage at this action. following close on

Russia has again allowed the sultan

the Turkish war indemnity. In 1875 il
was contracted that Turkey should pay

Russia agreed TO accept 100000, and
now, on the principle of take what You
can get, she agrees TO accept 25 per
