point.

Zola's tendency for order is so strong
that it sometimes reaches a morbid stage,
for it provokes a certain suffering in cases
of disorder.
From about the age of 80 certain NOR
bid IDEAS have developed, but they do
not cause him pain when not satisfied;
he let's them run into their manias," as
he says, and he is then contented. The
idea of doubt is one: he is always in fear
of not being able to do his task, on
Of being incapable of completing a book.
He never re-reads his novels for fear Of
making bad discoveries; he has not conf
dence in himself III this respect.
Another morbid idea is arithmetical
mania. He says this is a result of his IN
stnct for order. When in the street he
counts the gas gets, the number of doors,
and especially the number of hacks. III
his home he counts the steps of the stair
cases, the different things on his bureau;
he must touch the same pieces of furni-
ture a certain number of times before ne
goes to sleep.
From this desire to count arise supersti-
tons; certain numbers have a bad influ-
ence for him. If by adding to the number
of a hack he obtains a superstitous num-

night he opens his eyes seven times TO
prove that he is not going to die. Bdt

important date that fate has willed, dis
turbS lola.
But Zola has superstltious ideas outside
of his arithmetical mania. He accom-
plishes certain things from fear if he
should ont, disagreeable experiences
would fall to his lot.
lola appreciates the absurd side of these
morbid IDEAS. which, nevertheless, are ac-
companied by slight emotions. He can
resist these impulses with success, and it
costs him neither struggle nor pain ls
is curious how little morbid ideas affect
his mental equilibrium.

She was posing for the benefit of the

her eyes were fixed not upon him, but
upon the figure of a young man who
was working hard at the other end Of
the room. Ever since she first came to
the studio, just three days before, Adele
had watched the young man very Gu
riously.
His behavior interested her. He
seldom spoke. but worked at his pic
ture with quiet pertinacity. Presently
the young fellow dropped his brush and
walked silently from the room. Adele
turned her eyes upon her companion.
"Who is your friend. monsieur" she
asked abruptly.

"A Bad Bargain.

Bad Bargain.
Look at her." said Jabbs, as he
jumped from his bicycle at the corner
where half a dozen of his friends were
watching the procession of wheelmen.
There's daisy for you. Regular
beauty! All the latest Improvements;
no chain and strong without being
heavy. Nobody has better wheel
and it fits me just as though it was
made to measurements"
"It is fine one," admitted one of
the crowd. "Must have set you back
good deal for it,"
That's where you're off. I'm too
fly to pay 500 for riding machine.
Hain't she dandy? And just among
ourselves, she cost me exactly SLIGO"
"No!'
That's right. If there's bargain
lying round loose anywhere you can
bet I'll find it. Nice looking young
fellow was going through here on a
tour. He went lame in one leg and
stayed at the hotel, thinking that he
would come out all right again. He
didn't, became discouraged, ran short
on cash, and finally offered me the
wheel If I'd buy him ticket home.
Jove! but she's corker. You fellows
better let me buy your wheel for you. ;"
Just at this point two detectives
came along. One of them took look
at Jabbs' wheel, went by, made band
wagon turn and returned, examined
the wheel, compared the number with
one in his notebook, called his COM
panion, and the two led the daisy"
off between them to the station-house.
Jabbs swore copiously and made a
bold start to get out writ of re-
plevin, but he thought better of it,
and is now hunting the fellow he made
the deal with.-Detroit Free Press.

There's glimmer of Joy through the

To darken the husbandman's day:
A sweet reinsurance falls soft DER his

A trust has monopolized hay,
IT'S true that no benefit he may derive
From the price which consumers
must pay,
But pride in his calling must certainly

Since trust has monopolized hay.

And he'll carol content and gay
With excusable glee as he pauses to see

In America People Leave Nothing for
Their Children to Spend.
In America it is the custom-very
nearly the universal custom-for par
ents to spend upon the luxuries and
pleasures of the family life the whole
income, says the North American Re-
view. The children are educated ac-
cording to this standard Of expenditure
and are accustomed to all it's privileges.
No thought is taken Of the time when
they must set up households for them
selves-almost invariably upon a very
different scale from the one to which
they have been used. To the American
parent this seems only natural down.
fall. They remark cheerfully that they
themselves began in small way and
it will do the young people no harm to
acquire similar experience, forgetting
that in most cases their children have
been educated to a much higher stand
ard of ease than that of their own early
life. They do not consider it obligatory
to leave anything to their children at
death. They have used all they could &C.
cumufate during their own lifetime
let their children do the same. The 70.
suits Of the system are cyrstallized in
the American saying, There are but
three generations from shirt sleeves to
shirt sleeves" The man who acquires
wealth spends what he makes. His
children, brought up in luxury, srug-
gle unsuccessfully against conditions to
which they are unused, and the crand.
children begin in their shirt sleeves to
toll for the wealth dissipated by the
two preceding generations.

There was long pause. Seraphine

seemed to remind him of something he

cardboard box.

He drew her toward him and kissed

expression in her face which showed
that she rated her admirer exactly at
his true worth.
