Imitation without Fl.ttery.

The habit Of thinking aloud was a pc
euliarity of one of the Earls Of Dudley,
and of this an amusing anecdote Is told.
Lord Dudley, being invited to the house
of friend, had ordered his carriage at
an early hour, having some miles to
travel before he could obtain his accus-
toned repose. To his great mortifica-
ton, after repeated inquiries for Lord
Dudley's carriage, it had not arrived.
One Of the guests, seeing how much his
!ordship was disconnected by the event,
very politely offered him seat in his
carriage. The gentleman in question
had to pass his lordship's house on his
return, and though he was almost q
stranger to Lord Dudley, the latter's
rank and position in the county were,
of course, well known to him. Never
theless. they had not been seated in the
carriage more than twenty minutes
when the peer, who had, up to that mo-
ment, maintained a most perfect ST.
lence, observed. In a low, but distinctly
audible tone Of voice: I'm very sorry
I accepted this offer. don't know the
man. 1t was civil, certainly, but the
worst is, 1 suppose, must ask him to
dinner" He then relspsed into his
former state of taciturnfty, when, after
n few minutes, the gentleman, pretend
ing to be afflicted with the same feel
ing, and. initiating his lordship's tone.
observed: Perhaps he'll think I did 1t
to make his acquaintance. Why, l
would have done the same to any far
mer on his estate. / hope he won't
think it necessary to ask me to dinner,
for shan't accept his invitation" Lord
Dudley listened to him with earnest in
terest, Immediately comprehended the
joke which he himself had provoked,
offered his hand with much hearty
goodwill to his companion, making ev-
cry proper apology for his Involuntary
rudeness, and from that night the tray.

There are certain circumstance unoH

these circumstances do not surround my

ed, wondering at her strange appearance.

Yes she said, slowly.

He turned quickly, but she seemed to
have forgotten him, and was looking
through the open window.

1t was almost noon before Lord Arleigh
saw Philippa, and then it struck him that
SDe was not looking well. She seemed to
have lost her brilliant color, and he fam

She had sent for him to her boudoir.

build the house. When the house was
completed, he came to Molly in high
spirits.
"Lenken Is coming next week." he
cried. Zach, Gott, l vas so glad"
Molly inquired the. day, but Meyer
could not tell her He-said he was GO
ing to watch every incoming train until
she arrived. Molly. too, somehow man
aged to be at the depot at train time,
and watched Meyer.
Il am so curious to get first glimpse
at Lenken," she said to herself. Il
nave wondered so long what she looks
like, and have heard her praised so
much by Meyer that the curiosity is al
most killing me-"
One evening, when the train came in,
.she saw Meyer rush forward, and knew
that Lenken had come at last. She
peeped around the corner, and saw a
woman looking around bewildered
That woman had beautiful eyes. Molly
looked straight into them for moment,
and everything else in the woman's
appearance was forgotten.
Come, Lenken," Meyer whispered,
touching her hand. "Ach, dn Lieb-
chem" he murmured as their eyes met.
Then both turned, holding each other
by the hand like children. and started
to walk away.
AS Molly looked after them there was
a soft moisture In her eyes. Then she
reused herself. and, smiling. murmur:
ed: why, she must weigh at the very
least 200 pounds"
The bell of the locomotive rang out
a warning. There was putting and
Wheeling and the train was in motion
Then there came piercing scream
and the train stopped suddenly.
When Molly looked through the
crowd that gathered in a moment to
see what had happened, she saw Mey-
er lying on the ground, and Lenken was
bending above him.

Maine Disaster Sent to Show Horrors oi
War, DIR. Talmage Says.
Dr.. T. Dewitt Talmage spoke of the
Maine disaster at the First Presbyterian n
Church in Washington. His subject was
"The Dead Warship," the discourse being
on the text James ill.,, 4-"Behold also the
ships.'' -.
'!The nation is stunned by the destruc-
tion of our war steamer. The heart of the
world Is wrung with sympathy for the
wounded and dying, and for the bereft
households. The steamship Maine has
gone down .and been buried in the great
cemetery of dead ships. Woel Woel Woe!
Let one united and universal prayer go up
in behalf of the broken-hearted fathers and
mothers and wives of those who perished
amid the awful calamity. And do not for
get the men who are on many seas in naval
service.
Star of hopel beam DER the billow,
Bless the soul that sighs for thee,
Bless the sailors lonely pillow,
Far, far at sea.
Star Of peacei When winds are mocking
All his tolls he flies to thee.
Save him from the billows rocking
Far, far at sea.
"Just why this destruction OF our war
ship was allowed was at first mystery;
but l think 1 understand 1t now. 1 believe
the calamity was allowed in order to teach
this nation som ething Of the horror Of war,
so that we might keep out Of it. Havewar,
and instead of 260 men slain, you will have
10000 slain, 20 600 slain, and instead of
260 bereft American homes, 10, 600, yea co.
600 homes in blackness and darkness. Is
it not appropriate, under these circum-
stances, that l show you the debt this ma
tion owes to our American Navy and
speak of the heroism of some OF those who
have trod the decks, and express to those
who may hear, rs we'll as to those Who may
read these words, our gratitude and appre.

The pallor of the lovely lips deepened.

Lord Arleigh kissed the rose. As he
did so their eyes met; and it would have

deeply. After that, meetings between
