Brunette, now the Duke d'Arcos. He
was 10 have succeeded Dupuy de
Lone as Spanish minister here If the
war had not broken out. He is COM
ing now in that capacity, and his ar
rival will mark the last step in the
making OF peace.
His wife was before her marriage
the beautiful Virginia Woodbury. Low
cry, of Washington. Jack Brunette
won his victory over Dewey in WIN
ming Miss Lowreys love. He had
still to fight fond father, but he held
on with grim determination and in
the end won.
When BRUNETTE was in Washington,
dozen years or so ago, he was only
a count But counts are more numer-
Gus in Washington than are hand
some good fellows of just his stamp,
so everybody called him Jack
Dewey was in those days in Wash
ingtop IN suburban naval position.
He had his pay, which was not large,
nothing else. He fell in love with
Miss Lowery BRUNETTE, who was
then quite as poor, but had prospects
OF a duchy, did the same.
Archibald Lowrey, who is rich and
proud and patriotic, did not like
either sutton. He thought his daugh-
ter could do better than marry Dewey
AS for Brunnetti he was not an Amer
lean In the fathers eyes he was
fpnossible
Perhaps that was one reason why
the beautiful girl preferred the hand
some Spaniard. She gave him a
vow that she would wed no one else
but she told her father she would not
marry without his consent. She kept
both promises, but there was a long
and weary time of waiting.
For years the father was obdurate;
the lovers were sundered. In the
mean time Dewey had married an
other girl. She was in her grave
twenty years and more before the
guns at Manila echoed around the
world.
After many years the old duke
died and Jack Brunette became the
Duke d'Arcos. He was named Span
ish minister to Mexico Mr. Lowery
finally concluded that further oppo-
sition was useless and gave sanction
to the marriage, which was carried
out very quietly.
The new Minister from Spain will
be an important man in Washington
and his wife a great lady. But there
are people in Spain as well as in the
United States who think Miss Lowrey
missed a great opportunity when she
said mo" to Dewey.

loved her sister, she must be happy
IN another way.

own that It was so. stlll there was a

IN strange manner this wish was
gratlned Evelyn Leigh had severe
and dangerous Illness. Tor many days
she was IN the greatest peril. When
she had somewhat recovered, the doc
tors for once agreed in saying that
she must have change of air and Of
scene. Hastings was strongly recon-
G-moH-ed and Mrs Leigh took a house
there Evelyn pleaded hard that
Agatha Lynne might accompany them,
and Agatha herself was anxious 70 go,
Mrs. Lynne slightly demurred, and
said that she would be duh and lone
ly: but she yielded TO the cntreaties Of
the sick girl, and It was decided that
Agatha should spend the autumn
with the Leighs at Hastings.
Inez watched her sisters departure
with the greatest relief,
Now | have the field to myself"
she said "and It will be hard If ! do
not succeed"
When Philip heard from his mother
that Agatha had gone for a long visit

Lord Lynne had been grieved and
panied and annoyed. He did not like
to Judge Agatha harshly, but he could
not help feeling that she had In
some degree misead him. She must
have seen how much he cared for her,
he thought and she might have saved
him the modification. They had been
confidential friends at least and
Sc might have told him that she
loved Allan Leigh.
Philip could not forget Agatha, He
smiled when he remembered that he
had once fancled he loved Florence
Wyvcrne He knew more Of what
love was now He had laid his whole
heart at the feet of that gentle fair
girl. and he could not forget his love.
No mercenary thought had been
mixed with It, He wished to marry
Agatha Lynne because he loved her.
lie never dreamed of marrying Ine2
without love. simply because she had
money Just at this time he thought
very little about his uncle's Will; he
only remembered that he had loved in
vain He thought but little, and
cared az little, that the time was
coming when he would have to lose
the splendid heritage that might have
been his.

BRUSHING IMPROVES THE HAIR.

The very best brush should always
be chosen, and at the very least one
hundred strokes a day should be
vigorously administered, The bristles
of the brush should not be so hard as
to drag the hair out in case Of a
tangle obstructing their course, Nor
should they be yielding. 1t is useless
TO brush the hair unless the skin OF
the head be brushed as well. The
friction stimulates it and makes the
hair grow. Brushing the hair with
slow and languid strokes is simply
useless, Nisor and intention are
necessary to produce a really good
effect and induce the bright, healthy
gloss that hair should have.

RELIGION OF ADMIRAL DEWEY
His Brother Says the Sailor is ar
Episcopalian.

EplsCOpdlldH'
Much has been written in newspa-
pers all over the country concerning
the religious faith Of Admiral Dewey
and much that his family declares is
untrue and misleading. In published
articles he has been allied to every
faith known has been proved Cath
Ollie, an Episcopalian, a Presbyterian
and many other things. A letter writ
ten by Charles Dewey, brother of the
admiral, should set at rest all doubt
on this question. He says:
"You may state on my authority and
that of George Goodwin Dewey, his
only son, that my brother is member
of the Episcopal church.
Another letter, in the possession of
Edwin j. Dewey, written by William
T. Dewey, nephew of the admiral and
son of Charles Dewey, gives these par
ticlars
"As to the admiraps religion, he was
baptized in the Episcopal church, all
ways attended same, was married in
the same. He was educated at Nor
wich, Vt, Episcopal Military acade-
my His son was educated at
st, Pauls Episcopal school Concord
n. II. His father was one
of the first TO organize the Episcopal
church here and was warden for about
thirty years; his brother, my father,
has been warden about forty-fiye
years, His sister was en-
ucated at St. Mary's Episcopal school
in New Jersey and the admirals neph-
ews and nieces, fourteen in number,
are all members OF the Episcopal
church
Il is noticeable that there is a sin
guar appropriateness about the motto
borne by the Deweys. Their coat Of
arms is thus described in Burke's book
on heraldry:
Sa., on a Jesse between three drag
ons' heads. erased or. langued gu. as

means: Upon a field Of sable (black)

between them, upon a Jesse lbarl

The tongues of the dragons are red.

The crest above the shield is "a drag
