NIT him? Good evening. Mr.. Gable!
Then Miss Marsh had taken up her
bouquet, had gathered around her the
folds of her opera wrap of old-rose
panne velvet, had sent a sweet, swift
ed-and was gone.
But, although she heartily enjoyed
the gay comedy to which they went
she had no faintest idea of the comedy
in which she played wholly uncon-

social but intellectual pre-eminence.
Her father had been twice senator from
his state. Her brother had held high
diplomatic post abroad. Their friends
were Of the most exclusive. Their ac-
quaintances were those Of the cultured
the artistic world. To be sure, the
Marshes had no money to spare. But
what was money to him? And when it
came to grace, and wit, and distinc-
ton, and beauty, and above all, that
exquisite, indefnable possession we call
breeding was not girl in the

Then she laughed up at the young

Aristocrat and plebeian are only
comparative terms. Some years ago
Professor Geddes of Edinburg moved
his family into a slum district, where
they hoped to do friendly work among
the poor. One evening he asked dis
tinguished statesman to dine with two
local guests, a chimney-sweep and
scavenger. The statesman accepted
with unfeigned pleasure, che scavenger
said he would come; but the chimney
sweep refused to sit down with the
scavenger. At another time the fam

What are the two changes in the per-
sonal appearance of people which
would most surprise Rip Van Wrinkle,
opening his eyes after sleep of CEN
tury? According to a recent observer,
they would be the number of persons
young and old-who were wearing
glasses, and the few of any age who
were pitted with smallpox. A very
agreeable exchange. Perhaps another
century will teach man how to re-
cover normal eyesight, as well as Ic
save the smoothness of his skin.
