The Charm Of n Smile.

A beautiful smile is as potent In the
drawing room as on the stage. Every
woman can count among her acqualnt-
ances the favored few who possess the gift,
not studied, conventional smile that
simply tightens the lips across the teeth,
but the quick, responsive expression that
springs first into the eyes and then to the
lips. Another noticeable feature OF this
CLEAN of sunshine, which transforms the
plainest face and can transngure the most
commonplace surroundings, Is that IL
leaves the features as quickly as 1t appears.

Anxious for Cash.
Washington, July 12.-Uncle Sam has
not paid his soldiers for the month Of
June and some Of them have grown
tired of waiting. Several soldiers OF the
Third cavalry, stationed at Jefferson
barracks, Missouri, have written to war
department headquarters in Washington
demanding their money.
The soldiers at Fort Sheridan have not
been paid. 1t is said that about $65,O0O
is due the enlisted men at the various
posts Of the department of the Missouri
under the command Of Major General
Brooke at Chicago. The appropriation
for the pay of the army In the fiscal
wear ending June 80 fell short about
5000. 900. and a clause appropriating that
sum has just been inserted In the gem
eral deficiency bill now pending In the
senate. M,
II Is probable that the soldiers VIII
get their pay within the next two
weeks. Uncle Sam does not often get
behind in his payments. and the pres
ent lapse is due to an oversight by the
pavmaster general of the army.

How He Became a Cynio.


Some lOvable traits Of character in
Prosper Merlmee, tho famous French
novelist. who has left to posterity the
reputation Of a misanthrope and a
cynic, are revealed In the pages OF Au.
gustus FllOn's "Merimee and His
Friends"
Monsieur Fllon tells Va how this cele.
bmtcd author devoted 100 louis of his
salary as Senator toward pensionlng
an old project Of Louis Philippe. who
had been ruined by the revolution OF
1s4s, and how, for twenty years, he as
sisted ana protected an humble sculp.
tor In whom he had become interested.
Monsieur Fllon relates an incident of
Merimee's childhood that shows how
susceptible his nature was to strong
impressions, ana how responsible older
people, and particularly parents, are
for the development OF certain traits In
children.
When the future novelist was five
years Of age he was once punished by
his mother for some naughtiness OF
which he was guilty. Madam Merimee.
who was an artist, and who was ut the
time engaged at her easel, put the cul.
prlt out OF the room, and closed tho
door upon him.
The little Prosper, already penltent,
anxious, besOught forgiveness through
the closed door. expressing great con-
triton and promising good behavior;
but the door remained inexOrably shut.
Finally, after much effort, he opened 1t
and dragged himself upon his knees
toward his mother His plteOus sup
plications and his pathetic attitude so
amused Madame Merimee that she be-
gan to laugh.
Instantly rising from his lowly pos.
ture he exclaimed Indignantly, "Slnce
You mock me, will never ask pardon
again." He kept his word. Thus was
sown the seed Of certain synical phil
Iosophy that tainted his after life.
