A SAD ROMANCE.
Involving the Emotions of Two
Young People in Three worlds.

From the sun.
once upon time there lived a seri-
Gus young man. He was serious all the
way through As in some streams his
depth revealed itself at the very top
No light waves played upon the sur
face. He seemed 20 have no surface.
He was all inner soul.
This young man loved seriously an
idle young woman. He saw her first
as Naujok's St Cecilia in a church
tdbleau He had loved the picture.
lie row loved the young woman more,
He saw in her face much that he had
not seen in the picture. She parted her
hair in the middle and she had n st.
CeCela nose, SO that the young man
did not observe that there was also
much in the picture that was not in
her face She could not even play the
piano before which she had posed.
The idle young woman loved serious
ly nothing whatever Least of all did
she love the serious young man. If he
had no surface. she was all surface,
like a brook. all waves full of light and
brightness. The young man was at
tracted by the waves and imagined a
depth beneath them. She was repealed
by the darkness of his depth and could
imagine no waves upon its surface
So when he asked her to say Yes,
she answered mo" He suffered great
ly and, after a time, he died, and he
| went to purgatOry.
Some months later she caught pneu-
monia at dance and she went tc
purgatory too. She found INN seated
at glistening dinner table paying
| nj
to a woman in a decollete gown The
woman she recognized as the head OF
the missionary society i'm her former
| home. "Of all peOple!" she exclaimed
| How do they ever come to be doing
that?' she asked the keeper. They
are doing penance for having beer
bores ON earth and they are learning
small talk SO as to be agreeable in
| heaven" was his answer. How nicen
she thought. "Purgatory is quite
agreeable after all! May l sit at the
end Of tn" table furthest from :hem?'
| she asked Your task is different
was the reply, and to her We're giyer
seven books on sociology and seven on
| psychology and seven ON philosophy
and she was made to manage sever
missionary societies-"To teach you tC
think enough to be agreeable in
| heaven"
In time her thoughts made her seri.
Gus, and it CHANGED that as she sat
among her books the talk of the diner,
| tloated to her ears, and after a while
| she grew seriously to love the voune
man at the table, for the light anC
dash of his talk attracted her and she
took for granted depth beneath them
| But he loved her not at all and thought
How dun and unresponsive she ha,
| grown She might take the trouble t,
be agreeable even If she does read bis
books" This caused her to suffer
great sorrow.
At last the time of their preparation
was ended and it became time for then
to enter perfect into heaven, and a.
they stood together, perfect, upon the
| threshold, they loved each the other
at last. "Mne?" he asked. "Foreverv
she answered, and they entered the
gate.
But in heaven they neither marry
nor are given in marriage.

American Women Abroad.

American Women Abroad.
The latest American women to make
their, mark in foreign lands are Miss
Alice Luce, who is a native Of Maine,
and Miss Ida J. Hyde, who halls from
CINCINNATI, but who has been identified
OF late years with Cornell and Bryn
Mawr. Each has received Phi. D. from
heidelberg, and is the admired Of many
ADMIRERS. There is a great difference
among universities abroad in regard to
their treatment of women.
In Oxford and Cambridge they are al
lowed to study, but cannot compete
with the men. This is very fortunate
!or the latter, as in the past ten years
mere have been over 80 women who

Girls and Home.

Technical training for girls in the
arts Of the home is very much needed in
this country. says q New York writer.
Abroad it is carried on extensively.
Hundreds Of institutions are maintained
by private subscription, others are man
aged by the proprietors of large manu-
featuring establishments, who see in
the training of the mothers and daugh-
tiers better labor results in the fathers
and sons, and, still more, are conducted
BY municipalities. Many of these
schools have perfect courses in house
keeping. The pupil begins at the bottom
round of the ladder, learning how to
manipulate the tools Of cleaning, wash
ing, ironing, dishwashing, waiting at
table and all the rest of the household
detail She learns to market aud make
out palatable menu and is taught the
nutrltive constituents and economical
values Of each food served.
She must keep record Of her expend-
itures and waste. She learns to buy
and make clothes, and when she enters
her own home is fitted to be its keeper,
AL through Germany the schools are
growing in number. Holland, Belgium.

schools, intended for the most part for
the children Of laboring people. In the

one SOW is allowed in lot before she

The sows are fed on oats, barley and
q small quantity of corn ground togeth-
er, shorts, beets, parsnips, turnips, for at
least week before narrowing, in small
rations. When the pigs come, nothing
is given the SOW for at least "a hours
except cool water. The third day should
begin with mixed feed, again in small
quantities, increasing feed gradually
until you get to null rat1ons again. Ihen
I add all the milk that can be had,
sweet or sour. When pigs are strong
enough, they are allowed full sway to
go where they please except in garden.

When pigs are s or 10 weeks old,
the sows can be removed without any
harm being done to either SOW or pigs.
