Jack never failed to have something
in his pocket. at least twice a week
But Eugenio had more important mat
tiers to consider. He had his club, and
his Wagner society, and his golf, and
his bicycle, Frequently he dined out
with bachelor friends. When Sophia
demonstrated with him he told her
to mind her own business. He even
went so far as to strike her. The blow
was not so sweet as Sophia had antic-
ipated. in spite of Adolphus.
In years time he had drunk him
self to death. The gossips declared it
was a happy release for Mrs. Fitz-
Jones.
But the flowers were always fresh
on Eugenio's grave And his magniti-

OF the widows provision, was the envy
OF every mourning neighbor.
When Sophia died a year later the

broken heart. She passed away with

American Shoes in Germany.

Twenty years ago American shoes
were unknown in Germany. Indeed, at
that time our shoes were not regarded
as superior to those of German manu-
facture, but the many improvements
which have been made in machinery,
together with the careful study which
our manufacturers have made Of style
and comfort, have placed our shoes in
the front rank. An American can al
most always be distinguished in a
crowd by his shoes. In 1880 the value
Of shoes imported into Germany from
the United States amounted to $1.666;
in 1890, to S9,O44; in 1896 it was $780,
sos, and for the first five months of
this year the total value of the shoes
imported from the United States was
500, 500

A WOMAN'S IDEAL.

Mrs. Blenkins laid down her novel
with a deep sigh The hero Of the
elopement in the last chapter was such
a splendidly romantic figure. No won
der his friends wife ran away with
him. Any woman would have found it
impossible to resist him. He was SO
unlike Jack Poor Jack was so dread
fully prosaic. He never even quar-
relied. He was too phlegmatic for an
ger.
At least that was the way Mrs. Blen-
kins put it to herself. OF course Jack
was fond of her. She knew that per-
fectly we'll But his affection took the
form of placid contentment, a desire to
be amiable, sckening domestic bliss.
No rich Southern blood flowed in his
veins. His eyes would not flash; he
never seized her by the wrist, or stamp
ed and called her woman" He never
opposed her. If she expressed a wish,
II was carried out without murmur. II
she scolded him he bore it meekly. An
| exasperating man; puny creature; the
reverse of Adolphus de Montmorency,
the hero aforesaid.
Fate had clearly treated Sophia
Blenkins badly in uniting woman of
her temperament to such a man as
Jack Others might be contented to
lead a hundrum life by the side of an
unambitious, domesticated husband;
/ but Mrs. Blenkins possessed higher
4 ideals. Her passionate nature and ar
4 tistic suseeptibilities demanded some
/ thing nobler than commonplace virtue.
4 She felt herself utterly thrown away
/ upon Jack. He was only fit for the
ordinary woman.
i Mrs. Blenkins' reverie vas SO deep
/ that she did not hear the sound of the
latchkey. The first intimation she re-
ceived of her husbands presence was
/ when he stood before her. He was not

/ pockets of his overcoat bulged out un-
/ symmetrically; from under each arm
an ungainly brown paper parcel pro-
truded.

exhibition of YOURSELF" exclaimed So
phia, with a look of intense disgust;
its so dreadfully bourgeois Why
didn't you have the things sent?'
Nobody saw me- I'm sure" said
Jack, putting the parcels triumphantly
down on the table. land | wanted to
give you surprise"
He took out a peAknife and cut the
string, The first package contained a
pair of warm sleeping socks; from the
second he produced beetle trap. Il
know you suffer from cold feet" he
said, "and | heard the cook complain
OF the cockroaches this morning" The
rest of his purchases consisted of vari-
Gus household requirements; a mouse
trap, set of backing brushes, some
digestive candy. and so forth.
As Jack displayed these tri1es, one
by one, he looked anxiously at his wife
in the hope of detecting a gratified
smile. But Sophias thoughts had gone
out swiftly to Adolphus de Montmor-
ency. Adolphus would not have pre-
sented himself before the woman he
loved with muddy boots and turned-up

THE DREYFus FAMILY.

We are permitted to print the fol-

the interests of a few high military au-
thorities, who have found it necessary,
in order to screen some individuals, to
identify the honor of the army, which
has nothing to do with the case, with
their own individual honor. The peo-
pie, even the bourgeosie, have been
misled by the sloppy press to which it

her sleeping socks or digestive candy.
1t was almost more than she could
bear To be tied to a man who could
not soar above mouse traps
Take them away. How could you
buy such thrash?" she cried, exasper-
ated. The panied look on Jacks face
nearly drove her mad His meekness
! irritated her beyond endurance. Why
didn't he swear at her? A blow even
would be preferable to silence. Adolf
phus would have fired up instantly and
/ probably bundled her out of the room
with physical violence. 1t was terri
Bile to have this provoking saints sor-
rowful humility.
Sophia refused to wear the sleeping
socks. She declined to mollycoddle,
she said. And next day she laughed
at Jack putting comforter round his
neck. Jack had a bad throat; but to
please his wife he left the wrap at
home and went out without it, When
he came back in the evening his cold
was much worse. Jack would have
committed suicide to please his wife;
and he did. Day after day he carried
that cold about with him Sophia
thought it more manly and romantic
not to give way TO such trihes. Con
sequently Jack caught one chill on top
of another; he became feverish even
delirious. Then the doctor was sent
for. But 1t was too late. Jack had a
severe attack of Inflammation of the
lungs, from which he never recovered.
And even at the last Sophia could not
help rejecting that Adolphus would
never have given in to such a disease.
His will power would have saved him.
Sophia became a widow. She wept
over Jack, of course; but behind her
grief there was a kind of exultant feel
Ing that the ideal man had become,
after all. possibility.
OF course Sophia met him. The or
binary conventional method of making
his acquaintance was too commonplace
for her emancipated soul II was a
case Of love at first sight, and the lat

rade. Love ripened into acquaintance.
His name was Eugenio Fit2Jones. The
Jones she forgave because his mother
had been an Italian.
They were married a year after
Jacks death. II made no difference
to the dead man; the flowers on his
grave had ceased within six weeks OF
the funeral For a whole fortnight
Sophia lived in the delirious atmes-

promedarIes Tint Smoke cIrnr.

Dromedaries are said to be partic-
ularly fond of tobacco smoke. and can
be made to do almost anything while
under its influence. Travellers, it is as
serted, rely more on tobacco smoke
for their control over these huge
beasts than anything else. When
travelling on long Journeys, the drome-
dares are in many cases required to
travel night and day without rest, and
they are kept up to their task by smok-
ing cigars The driver carries a trian-
gular piece of wood which is pierced
at one point like a cigar holder. This
is inserted in the mouth of the animal
the cigar being lit and pressed into
the hole The dromedary closes its
eyes and puffs away through its nos
trils until the cigar is burned away.
The indulgence appears to refresh it,
and the keeper has no difficulty in per-
suading the animal to plod onward
without any further rest

Spain Slowly Evacuating the West Indies
The evacuation of the islands of
Cuba and Porto Rico is progressing
as rapidly as circumstances will allow.
On each island the Spanish forces are
moving from interior districts toward
main point of ultimate departure
in Cuba, Havana; in Porto Rico, San
Juan. As one district after another
is vacated by the Spaniards it is oc-
cupied by the Americans, who are
obliged to exercise civil as we'll as
military and police functions. The
evacuation of the districts and the en-
barkation Of the troops are slow proc
esses, but the unavoidable delays are
proving highly beneficial to the Amer
leans. BY the time the work of the
Joint military commissions is finished
and the last Spanish forces are ready
to embark from the capital cities. the
United States will have perfected it's
permanent armies of occupation, now
being modified and hardened to SER
vice in various southern camps. The
weather, too, will have become more
propitious.

having originated the idea Of blocking the

the plan, as well as its execution, was in
