in her-why he did not know-and stud
eyes dWelt for a long time on her beau
tiful gold-brown hair, and he saw that
a hairpin was loose and about to fall.
Stepping forward he called the young
lady's attention to it, and she turned
to thank him..
Then he saw the face that he was in
search of, and boldly told the girl all
about his dream. She became interested
in his strange tale, and when he asked
if he might walk home with her she al,
lowed him to do SO. She told Wheeler
that her name was Alpha M. Heberer,
and when she reached home she asked
him to meet her parents.
At the upper table Wheeler told his
story over again. and asked permission
to pay his attentions to the girl The
! girls father, Jacob Heberer, asked the
young man if he did not think he was
too young to get married, and he added
that it was the Interchangeable purpose Of
heaven that he should be married as soon
as he met the girl whose face he saw
in the dream.
Wheeler was only 10 years old. and
| Alpha was two years his senior, so Mr..
Heberer refused to allow the marriage
to take place at that time, but pronis-
ed the swain that he would not re:rse
his consent if his daughter desired to be
married a year later. Wheeler then t:e-
cided to stay in St. Louis, where he could
see his sweetheart every day.
Last Wednesday the year was up. Both
parents gave their consent, and the we'd
| ding was celebrated.

H GIRE.

ed Thomas Wheeler Of Terre Haute. Ind.
of his father one morning at the break
last table about a year ago.
Wheeler reamed that he was predrs-
tined to marry a CIR! living in st. Louis.
He saw her face in his dream. and he
was unable to forget 1t. At that time
the youth was learning The barber trade
in Terre Haute, and was planning to
open a tOnsorial ablishmen there.
His dream changed all his plans. how
ever, and he spent most OF his time cen
sulting mediums and fortune teilefs to
find out how much faith they placed in
his predestination theory.
Their explanations Vt his dream did
not agree and he placed faith in none Of
them, but decided to foilov his own in
clinatiOns and set out to find the divin-
1ty of his dream. Whenever young
Wheeler got enough money together to
a his railroad fare he iourneyed to ST.
Louis to search for the girl Of his dream.
He made six visits before he found her,
and then his reward came quite mex
pectedly, in a way that strengthened his
belief in predestination.
Wheeler was walking out Olive street
one afternoon, and when he reached
Thirteenth street he noticed Il ycung girl

very lightweight WOOL goods with ir-
regular stripes running through the sur
face outlining small squares.
The skirt has a tunic of dark cloth
trimmed with bands of silk braid and
plain satin. 1t hugs the figure closely,
revealing the outlines of the hips, and is
laid in triple plaits at the back.
The waist is a cross between the long,
rounded coat design and a princess bod
ice. 1t is made upon a fitted lining, and
the front is scalloped and trimmed with
decorative bands off SATIN finished with
other bands of braid. Beneath the
scallop of the goods there shows a vest

The yoke is of lace over satin, and
from it turn back revers of the dark
goods. edged with fancy braid. The col
lar is high and rolls back. revealing the
neckband of the dress material.
The sleeves are trimmed with bands
of satin braid. The hat is a very smart
toque, with a fbrim of chiffon and satin
and a crown of large, blush-pink silk
roses. Voluminous rosettes Of pale pink
chiffon are placed at the left side and
form the only trimming.

Something Abont Trees.

The stems of trees have provision
for a symmetrical arrangement of
branches, the nodes or points where
the buds are produced, being placed
at regular intervals. This tendency
toward symmetry is, however, inter-
fered with by several disturbing
causes, internal and external. The
most important of the former Is the
varying degree of vigor In the buds,
which behave like distinct plants,
some of them growing into strong
branches, while others produce COM
p~aratiyely small shoots.
Even IL all buds were of equal vital
fty, regularity would not result. Many
of the buds and tender shoots are de-
youred by birds, insects or squirrels.
When of larger size, branches are of
ten torn away by high winds, blasted
By lightning, o broken off by acct
dent. i tree will sometimes grow
into an irregular form through the
pressure of prevailing winds. This
irregularity has also its use. In a
gale Of wind it will be observed that
the branches sway in all directions,
and the various movements counter
balance each other. If the branches
were arranged with perfect regularity
they would all sway together, and the
leverage would be so great that the
tree might often be uprooted or broken
of short.

The scaveneer of the veldt,

The vulture is the scavenger Of the
veldt. Throughout South Africa he is
found. Go anywhere you like ON the
veldt, and sooner or later-and in all
probability the former-you will find
him.
His quickness Of eye is simply
astounding. An OK falls out of the
team, evidently i'll. He is out-spanned
from his yoke fellow, and he goes
down to the spruit, or stream. The
sky above and away to the horizon on
all sides is absolutely clear and cloud
less.
Hardly has the breath left the body
of the poor OK, when you may OBJ
serve far away, far away up in the
sky a tiny black speck, then another
and another and another, until there
are twenty of them. Gradually they
get larger and larger, circling round in
ever diminishing circles all the while
they descend.
An hour afterward there is nothing
In the spruit but a bundle of bleached
white bones that might have been
there for months. The sky is clear
and s~peckless again. The vultures
have Scavenged the veldt.
