again whom he looked ut her wistfullN
pleadingly. When he caught her eye.
he saw pity in ii, and even fancied
there was love as we'll. Her face was
that of n woman--a real woman, tender
and sympathetic.
He continued his monologue. ''Then
the twilight and the music, and may
i say you, too, got hold Of me and set
me thinking of my people that are
gone and the sister miles away in
India, and a thousand other selfish
thoughts Of self-pity. But it's not
too late to join the other people, to
get out Of the narrow world, the pack
of-cards thing I've built-that's now
topping over. He stopped and looked
at her inquiringly for words. He knew
she would comfort him, could comfort
him, that he could find peace, even
happiness with her. 1t was all part
of the new sensation that had made
him pour his heart out to her, and TO
look TO her for help to face his new
life. She spoke TO him. IL was diff
cult for her TO retain her voice least it
should be too tender, but there was
an occasional tear in spite of her self
command, and he loved her the better
for IL. She even thanked him for the
confidence he had shown her; and
then she spoke to him of his family
and himself and other things they had
only dared to vaguely hint at in the
past.
They sat long together, talking as
old friends do, openly, intimately,
without restraint. There was new
sense of rest in both their hearts now;
a vague thing that people recognize
and call happiness when il has become
q memory.
Mr.. VERBAL came in later on and
joined them, until Jack reluctantly
said good night
Doris saw him az far as the hall,
They shook hands, he pressing her
five fingers TO his lips and thanking
her earnestly, saying he had never
spent a happier evening, and asking IL
he might come again and talk to her.
She said, "Of course"
The door closed on Halliday, on all
the vain trumpery Of his past, and he
went home planning new world built
on the ruins of the old. Yet the old
was not utterly worthless, for it had
given him Doris Verrall. -(Black and

A Water-Tlght Door.

The invention il Just announced by
the San Francisco Chronicle of door
that is never closed and never open.
1t is the only door on earth that
person is forced TO shut behind him
under any and all circumstances. Water
cannot pass through il or around the
casing. 1t is the invention of Alex
ander Kircaldy Of Glasgow, Scotland,

present s1ate Of perfection for ten
years. Xkimsrily, thisdoor is Intended

the bsslkhead, where the door ID fitted,
is bolted hollow, cylindrical casing.
In this casing are two doors, but they
are not opposite one another. Within
this hollow casing revolves hollow
cylinder, and there is doorway to
this cylinder. When it is desired to
pass through this novel door the cylin-
der within this casing is turned so
that the door therein is opposite one
of the other doors in the casing.
When the ingress doorway is in line

tom of the casing and revolves the
hollow cylinder by hand until he
brings the ingress doorway into line
with the second bulkhead doorway,
which permits of egress from the cas-
ing.
The remarkable feature of this double
door is, that it is absolutely i'm
possible to leave it open, as one
door must OF necessity be effectually
closed before the other opens. The
revolving cylinder is hung on ball.
bearings, and is easily brought into the
position desired for ingress or egress,
At the same time no gear, which is sc
familiar to other types Of water-tight
doors, is required.

The Earth at the Poles.

A French scientist, M. de pApparent,
finds in Nansen's discovery of the un.
expectedly great depth of the Arctic
ocean an argument tending to show
that the earth is slightly top shaped.
the protuberance corresponding to the
point Of the top being at the South
Pole. This, he thinks, would explain
the different results arrived at by the
various measurements of astronomers
and geodesists. These differences are
very small in comparison with the en-
tire bulk of the globe, yet they are
readily appreciabIe, and one of the
explanations that has been suggested
forthem is that the earth is tetrahedral
in form. But NJ. de rApparent thinks
the top-shape theory is preferable.
The fact that TO an eye looking at the
earth from point in space il would
not ssnsibly differ in appearance from
a true sphere shows how refined are
the methods Of science which enable
men living on the surface of the globe
to detect variations in its general con-
tour.

'Theres no end Of people, said q
man who walks great deal himself
to Boston Joureal reporter, "who
think they can walk four miles an
hour; and very likely they could, but
they would have to move along very
briskly to do il. As matter Of fact,
very few people indeed do walk four
miles an hour; three miles is very
fair gait, and when one exceeds that
he is beginning TO walk fast. II my
recollection serves, the old common
time in the army carried q man tive
aud seven eighths miles an hour. The
distances which the soldier covers in
an hour have now been increased
somewhat by slightly increasing the
length of his steps, but my impression

II costs annually about $3.50, 600, OOO

ment Exclusive of over 800, O00, 900 for
the postal service, much OF which is
paid back from postal receiEts). We
expend annually for the civil estab.
lishment THAT is the salaries of public
officials and employees OF the executive
departments, care of pub ic buildings,
etc. about SSS, 200, 900; for military
establishment, $50, 100000; for the
naval establishment, S97, 200, 900; for
the Indian service, So, 900, 900; for
pensions, $40, 900, 900, and for inter
est on the public debt, $50, 600, 600
making total of 1852, 000, 900.
To meet these expenditures, says
Harper's Round Table, the United
States government has to raise the
necessary funds by taxation. The
greater amount is raised by customs
duties and by the internal revenue tax
upon whiskey, tobacco, beer, playing
cards, oleomargarine, etc. For the
year ending June 80, 1896, there was
collected $3.50, 100000 from customs
taxes and Sl47, 900, 900 from internal
revenue taxes, the balance consisting
of miscellaneous receipts from sales of
public lands, revenues of the District
of Columbia, consular fees, fees on
letters patent, national bank circula-
ton, profits on coinage, etc.
One can easily realize the immense
work of collecting this vast sum of
money. In addition, however, the
treasury through its accounting Off
GERS, has to supervise the expenditure
of every dollar paid out for the sup
port of the government, and to adjust
the accounts of every officer spending
the public money. Not dollar can
be paid into the treasury of the United
States nor paid out without an order
from the secretary addressed to the

United States, directing him to receive
