awaiting her pleasure at the park

Louisa went back to the house to
speak with Mrs. Waymoor, the window
lady of the Manor. At the door she
came on the artist, who stood watching
Anna and her companion crossing the
park, watching so intently that he was
unaware of her neighborhood until she
spoke. He turned with an apology.
81 was watching the golfers; they
make a handsome pair, do they not,
Miss Blackston?"
She followed his gaze; when she
looked back at the man, two queer lit
tie upright burrows marked her fore
head.
"You admire her?"
81 am an artist. / must admire
her."
Her eyelids were lowered as she
went by him into the hall; she was
shivering, though the September after
noon was warm and bright.
That evening, after the choir prac-
tice, she said abruptly to Anna:
''My dear, I think why Mr. Royce
has grown stupid is because he loves
you"
The girl leant against the garden
gate, and laughed till the tears ran
down her cheeks-the notion was so
funny. Louisa's notions often were.
'Love me! Mr.. Royce! Why, if
he wore elevators in his boots hewould
barely reach to my shoulder. 1t never
occurred to me that the little manil1in
could fall in love. How absurd!"
Louisa turned, almost angrily.
Though it has not occurred to you
it might to him. And you are such a
fool that you cannot see the man in
him! You make me impatient, Anna.
Flirt with Gerald Maxwell by all
means; it is all you are fit for. !"
"Why are you cross, Lu? Mr..
Royce is clever and I like him; he is
very kind. Poor little scrapl 1 like
him very much. But he is in love
with his Academy picture, not with
me-"

show. Every millinery queen of Paris
is we'll represented in the superb dis
play. Side by side with the French
models, but not to be distinguished
from them, We're Gerson's own crea-
tions. The new hats are fascinating.
Everything is of rich material. There
are velvets, glistening spangles, che
miles, luXuriant ostrich plumes, great
birds in natural tints and paradise

Hours might be spent in looking over
the myriads of styles, each a gem,
harmonious in color, material and tone.
"he great feature of the opening is the
sale of imported hats at prices almost
less than the amount of the duty. In
the untrimmed hat stock are shown
new shapes innumerable. Near by are
the ribbons, feathers, birds wings, vel
vets and the French novelties that go
to the making of a "chic" hat. The
handmade chenille hats are in all the
new scarce shades of Castor, Beige,
Gray, Mousse, etc, and are old at sur
priSnGly little prices.

HIGH.CLASS LAW BREAKERS.
Fail to Report Births to the Board of
Health.

There is a very stringent law pro-
viding that clergymen, aldermen,
physicians and midwives shall report
each month to the board of health all
marriages and births respectively COM
ing under their notice. Secretary Muir
ray, of the board, has been directed to
prosecute all persons who do not heed
the law mentioned.
1t is a fact that no midwives and but
a very few clergymen and physicians
make birth or marriage returns.
AS a consequence the report sent
monthly to Washington contains
a ridiculous and incorrect birth
rate. The penalty attached to the
law mentioned is a fine of from
IS to 500, recoverable before the mayor
or any alderman, the fines so collected
to be "for the use of the CITY,"
The city has a chance to obtain a
considerable revenue from the follow
ing class of individuals, according to
the Act of 1881, who may be involved
in one way or another in breaking the
law: ANY clergyman, magistrate,
physician, coroner, midwife, under
taker, sexton. clerk"

penurious War Department.

Live heroes, when they serve in the
ranks, can always count on shabby
treatment from the British authorities.
When the transport ship Warren Hast
ings, with 1,246 souls on board. went
ashore on the rocks of the island of Re-
union last January, in a pitch dark
night, with a heavy sea running. all
England rang with the praise of the
bravery and discipline of the troops,
who stood drawn up in companies on
the deck till the women and children
were saved and then went ashore as
they were told off. Many of the officers
were then mentioned in orders and
some were promoted. The soldiers and
their families lost all their baggage.
After six months the war department
allows each man six dollars TO renew
his kit and each family $3.50 as COM
pensation for lost property.

ENERGY SADLY WASTED.
A Calculating Barber's Astonishing
Figures of n Bicycle Century Run.

Cnlcuinting Barber's Astonishing
Figures of n Bicycle Century Run.
SNYDER, the calculating barber, was
taking about cycling, and was holding
forth upon the energy expended by
women in making century runs. says
the Philadelphia Record. II have done
little figuring on the subject" he re-
marked. "and the result is most surpris-
ing.
Take a woman who weighs 100
pounds and who rides Il wheel weigh
ing 20 pounds. In riding 100 miles
have calculated that power of more
than 100000 pounds of energy, or
about 100 horsepower, has been
brought into play. And to think that
all this has been expended in riding
bicycle.
Had the womari directed this energy
in running a sewing machine, where
force of two pounds will run a needle
over a piece of cloth for distance of
foot, she could have hemmed piece of
muslin about 100000 feet, or nearly
800 miles long.
THE same amount of energy used to
propel baby carriage weighing 10
pounds. containing baby weighing 12
pounds more. would send the young
ster 500 miles. The same amount of
energy expended in churning would
produce 80 tons of butter, or would
push carpet sweeper over an area of
25O.O0O square feet
THE woman also could have ironed,
without any more fatigue, a strip of
muslin one foot wide and 210 miles long.

think of all the bargain counters she
