again; its windows were decked with

"Oh, is it you, Mr.. Caxton?" she said

THE RARE GOOD FORTUNE OF
BOOBY BAINES.
BY ANTHONY HOPE.
fcepyright. 1888. by. Anthony Hope Hawkins)

Yet il leaked out--who can tell nowf
that the greater part of the book
had been written and then destroyed
bv its author. Caxton's share in the
transaction was not mentioned, and
MIS-. Baines was not unkind enough tn
expose him; thus the way was left clear
for the natural inference. The inter-
cnce was duly drawn, and the admirers
of Mr.. Baines wearied not in praising
an artist whose regard for perfection
was SO scrupulous as to lead him to
destroy the work of months, and set
TO again on % blank sheet. Booby
Baines himself said little, but he owned
10 having found faults in the first
draft. This admission was enough; the
version was now authorized, and admir-
ing sympathy watched the CONSCIENTIOUS
author as he set to work again. Yes,
he set to work again, in helpless bond'
age to his loving wife, in loathing de-
spair of the task There seemed no
avoiding il and no performing IL, and
Addie was more cheerful and confident
than ever. She laughed away doubts,
and was sturdy in refusing to regret
the lost board of trade. But towards
Caxton her bearing was cold and her
manner stern.
Now In those days certain eminent
person put himself at the head of q
great movement for the promotion OF
artistic culture in the masses of the
people. Great sums were raised, great
buildings built, and couple of bar

was invited on to the general commit.
tee, and, being an energetic man, took
q large part in founding the first of the
great buildings, the College Of Art in
the Old Kent road. And when the Col.
lcge of Art was nearly finished Mr.. Tom
Caxton began to be most assiduous in
calling on Prof. Martin. In vain the
professor declared that he had no in
fluence with the eminent person or
with the general committee. Caxton
knew better. In v6in the professor
pleaded that public interests alone
could be regarded in the appointment
of n secretary TO the College of Art in
the Old Kent road. Again Caxton knew
better.

that IL was.
Booby Baines turned to the writing
table. He opened a drawer, and with n
dexterous sweep of his hand shot njl
the papers into it. Then he closed the
drawer with bang, and said, with tho
.happiest smile;

And Tom stayed TO lunch; and they
talked about the baby, and the College
of Art, and what could be done with an

"I'm afraid" said she, "that IL means
the eud of the book-for ever SO long, at

The servant had gone, and they three
were alone. Disregarding Cations

that you could do it if you liked, and I

Hint. for the Hou.sho,a.

Grapes are excellent for leanness
therefore may be INDUCED In freely
and in winter small doses OF cod liver
oil. commencing with a teaspoonful i'm
mediately after meal, will often assist
materially in producing flesh.
Impure air and overheated rooms are
a fertile source OF wrinkles. The
nerves of the face are deadened by
close and impure air. the fine muscles
lose their tone, the tissue of the face
shrinks, and these shrinkages become
wrinkles.
When out in the sun the upper part
of the face should be shielded from
the light; IL the sun shines full into
the eyes they will naturally attempt
to protect themselves from the strong
effect OF the light by involuntarily
screwing themselves up, which quickly
produces lines.
For the crows feet" at the corners
of the eyes press the balls of the second
and third fingers lightly, but firmly,
just above the eyebrows. bringing the
second finger down the side of the
eyebrow till it meets the cheek; then
transfer the light movement to the
third finger, and continue 1t around
the edge of the lower eyelid to the
nose.
Two important points must be at
tended to in dressing infants. They
must neither be loaded with clothes
nor exposed to catch cold. With a
young child, to shield II from draughts
and wrap it up comfortably is essen
tial. Over clothing weakens children,
and by causing profuse perspiration
predisposes them to cold, while colds
are the beginning of all kinds OF dis
eases.

ways drew the Ill will of his fellow
players by Sinking the fast grounders.
Fred w. Clausen, the left-handed
pitcher of the Louisville Club, has been
signed by Manager Larry Twitchell, OF
the Milwaukee Club. He was a men,
Der OF the Southern League last year,
and has a good record. He is an old
Milwaukee boy, and played with CO.
lumbus four years ago when that city
was a member of the Western League.
In 1889 he was the Milwaukee's star
pitcher, but in 1890 he was unable to
render satisfactory service to the club
and was released. The record made by
Captain Twitchell's players has of late
been of such a character that any en-
thusiast may be proud of. Not often
do you find team dealing out such
snappy, full-of-life game OF ball as
Larry Twitchell's aggregation is at
present doing. II this is doubted in
quire of Managers Watkins, Lotus,
Ellis and Vanderbeck. These genial
fellows will inform you that they
struck something like a cyclone in the
neighborhood of Milwaukee. 1t is a
pleasure to watch the steady improve
ment of the Brewers. Each player
seems to have only one object in view,
and that is to win out games. Rettger,
Baker and Nonnomaker are doing gilt
edged work in the box. and Barnes
oil fnh A
ent he Is not TO the good behind the
bat. Spears and Outcalts steady work
is worthy of mention, and there is no
surer hitter on the team than Spear.
III there ever was an improved player
Stafford is one. In fielding and batting
he has developed into one of the best
in the League. Hartman. Taylor and
Wetterer are easily the best in their
positions seen here this season. These
men are doing good work on the coach
ing line. Twitchell, Mezena, Weaver
and Nicol guard the outfield as 1t
should be, their work the past two
weeks being the best seen on the local
grounds for some time. III the Brewers
present fast gait can be kept up they
will surely be leading the procession
ere long. Captain Twitchell has his
eye on the ball, and of late has picked
up wonderfully in batting. The phe-
nomenal work of Wetterer is the talk
of managers throughout the League.
Tom Lotus and Peck" Sharpe were
welcome visitors last week.
Tommy" Mccarthy worked the out
field trap ball trick on the Cincinnatis
recently, and followed it by catching
Germany" Smith Off second when the
REDS" short stop thought Mac"
might make another muff.
Dan Brouthers says that in 1894 he
considered Rusie the hardest man in
the League to hit. He attributed this
to his terrific speed and change of pace.
He believes, however, that Rusie has
seen his best days.
According to a Washington claim
Billy Lush can make faster time to the
first bag than any right-handed bats
man among the Senators. and it is
doubtful IL any player in the major
League who yields the stick from the
starboard side can beat him.
In Minneapolis one day last week
Umpire Charley Snyder had to be es-
corted to his hotel by policemen, to es-
cape a mob, and in st. Paul the next
day Umpire Mcdonald was chased into
the players dressing room by the
crowd and kept prisoner for several
hours. L. Il. SULLIVAN.
