A nem,ni.cence Of Marie An,oinette.

Old Jean (who was a child them had
no idea who she (the queen OF France)
was as she was always spoken of as Neuvc
Capet and her daughter as Cheyenne
Marie On entering her room he looked up
and saw pale, cold, stern looking wom-
an with snow white hair, standing bolt
upright, facing the three men and boy as
they came in. Some childish instinct made
the boy reverently bend his head To her
and If he dared he would have dotted his
cap and bent his knee.
Constantly he carried the pitcher TO her,
and one day, when his uncle was more
drunk than usual, he slipped three prim-
roses, which he had in his hot little hand,
into hers The queen took them, hid them
in her dress and burst into tears. The
child was frightened at her hysterical sobs.
Loud and fierce was the roar of laughter
from the ribald guards on hearing Vcuve
Capet cry She had not shed tear since
her boy had been taken from her, but the
flowers had opened the foodgates.-"F For

An Improbable Hope.

In looking into the future we find our
selves staring at blank wall, for with
the exception of the phonograph and the
typewriter, no recent advance has been
made in lcsscning literary work. The
ideal method of composition would be the
use of some machine into which the oper.
ator could talk and have his spoken word
reproduced at once on paper as the writ
ten word, but unfortunately, ike print
ing photographs i'm colors, each succeeding
advance and discovery in the world of in
vention seems TO make this hope more and
more improbable The insurmountable
difficulty lies IN the fact that there Is no
connection between the sound of word
and its appearance on paper. We will
never reach this ideal state.--J. Howe
Adams in North American Review.

HIS FIRST CONTRACT.
II Had an influence on His Choice of
m Profession.

"I was only 10 years old when secured
my first contract" said the we'll known
contractor, who was in a talkative mood.
my father was living on farm at the
time and as winter drQw nigh he conceiv-
ed the plan of turning the little creek that
ran through the farm into hollow near
by, thus forming pond from which TO
cut ice during the winter.
my father figured up the cost, and
finding that il amounted to more than he
had thought il would was about TO give II
up, when l looked the situation over and
told him that I would take the contract
for $40. He laughed and told me TO go
ahead, not dreaming for an instant that
would have ambition enough TO begin on
the work. as up TO that time l had not
shown liking for hard labor
II called the boys of the neighborhood
together and placed the situation before
them. The nearest pond was matter Of
ten miles away, and even boy with a
pair of brand new skates did not thrill at
the prospect of walking that far for a
skate. / showed them how with n little
work we could have a place TO skate right
at home They fell in with the idea, and
we went to work To carry out the plan.
1--WE were over month working at it
that Is, the other boys We're, while stood
around and bossed the job.
II was proud of the work when IL was
finished, and think my father was, too,
although he couldn't see for the life of
him how managed to secure so much
help for nothing.
with the first heavy freeze there was a
rush for the pond by the boys that was
only equaled by the rush away from II
when father discovered them there and
started after them with a horsewhip.
HE said that he wasn't going TO have "a
lot of fine ice spoiled 10y pack of pesky
boys skating on it,
