LEGEND OF THE OPAL.
The Tale the Fairies Tell of the Loves Of the Moonbeam and Sunbeam.


 Philadelphia Times:
 nave you ever heard how the opal got Its beautiful rainbow hues? This is the way 1t is accounted for in fairy land: i'i
 First of all. you must know that the sunbeams are really tiny sun fairies. Wno come down to earth on golden Iaooers. which mortals call rays of the sun. The sun and moon are enemies. rms IS why they never shine at the sdine tune. The moonbeams are little women. who come down on silver lad ders. but the sun fairies and the moon fairies cannot play together.
 Now it happened that one hot sum- mer's day little sunbeam slid down ms ladder and crept under a big oak tree. Soon he heard a bullfinch say to woodlove: The nightingale says she IS so very lovely I shall keep awake tonight to see her."
 The sunbeam shot into the bullfinch's nest. and said: "Of whom are you talking?"
 "Oh. only a moonbeam, you would not like her a bit" replied the bull finch.
 But the sunbeam said he would wait till the nightingale came.
 It was Just before the sun set that she appeared and began to sing. Tell me about the moonbeam,' said the sun beam to the nightingale. "Is she so very beautiful?"
 Most beautiful" replied the nightin- gale. Her hair and dress are silver. and there is a lovely tight in her eyes"
 Let me see the moonbeam, just once, pleaded the sunbeam, but the nightingale replied:
 When the moon is full she will come pefore the sun sets. and you can see her. but you must not shine upon her or you will hurt her"
 At last one night the moon was nearly full. Down stole the sunbeam and hid in the oak leaves.
 Soon the nightingale came and whis- pered. "She is coming" and he looked and sure enough there was the moon heam climbing down her little ladder. So lovely did she look that the sun beam fell in love with her at once, and he could not resist the temptation of appearing before her.
 She was frightened when she saw him. but he begged her not to be. In another moment the sun set, and the sunbeam's little ladder broke, but he seemed obliviOus of its destruction. OTlIIe0 near the ladder of the moonbeam. and 1t too was shattered. But the sunbeam and the moonbeam sat together all night. and the sunbeam grew paler and paler. and soon they saw the approach ing their enemy. the spirit of the gain. But under the oak tree lay common stone. which ofttimes lamented hay ing no use in life. The homely stone pitied the plight of the sunbeam and moonbeam. and said, Take refuge in the hole in my side.'
 In they crept and soon nothing was left of them but a beautiful light, like a rainbow. which completely transfig- ured the stone.
 When men found this stone they called it an opal. but the fairies will tell you the commingled colors were left by the sunbeam and moonbeam when they died.

[. 6. Remy in Short Stories:
 The young man was from town, and vas spending a Sunday in the suburbs. He knew far more about horses and carriages than the local liver salesman, and so his interview with the latter, when he sought to hire ''rig" for the afternoon, was tinged with a gentle air of patronage on his part. "Oh. have you a trap you can let me have?" "Yes. certainly"
 "One that will hold two?"
 ''Yes. or twenty" from the oblong countryman.
 "oh. really. Have you a stylish road wagon?"
 "Yes."
 Perhaps you have spider or Brewster buggy. on second thought. l might prefer rubber-tired hanson; you can accommodate mel"
 ''Yes, all kinds cheerfully furnished" "Can you give me lash whip "
 "Yes; with a fancy tassel." "Oh, well. what kind of horse can you turn out; a short-tailed one?"
 ''I think so." came gently from the wearied proprietor. Jake, can you give this gentleman a short-tailed horse? If not. cut one at once" ~.

Sins and Sins.
New York Times. ...

New York Times: .-.
 City Judge Austin of Los Angeles. Cal. has lately taken a brief vacation. Openlng court on the last day of his term he made a little address announc- ing his intended absence, and saving:
 Gentlemen, this is positively my last appearance before you for eight days Next week. should you come hither you will be intrusted to the tender mercies of my honorable colleague and compatriot. Judge Morgan, whose fa- nous lectures from the bench have gone down on the never-dying pages of the Police Court chronicles There are only few of us here today but We can have a little heart to heart talk together about our sins, and I hope we will be good friends. I like friendships like these. They don't last long enough to lag. It's like a glass of beer before the foam is off. Of course, sometimes friendship deeepens into passionate tenderness and endures but the court does not anticipate anything of the sort in the present instance
 Now, as to our sins. First allow me to insist on the distinction between sin and sins Sin is the attitude of vour minds. sins are the separate acts aris- ing out of that attitude. You need not tell me for instance, William Matth- 'NS. 'hdt your SetunE drunk was an accident. Ii was not. It was the positive act of shining that is the nat urA wicked result of your vicious will ingness to take a drink I shall fine you S4-S2 for the sinful act and 8 for your sinful attitude. John Lhez, won need not tell this court that you were dragged into disturbing the peace. If Your attitude hadn't been sinfully ma lignant. don't believe you would have been in this row. However we will let the jury, decide that on July 10. Thomas Bolaires both you and P. P. O'Riley sinned in flesh and spirit. and you will each he fined g for the flesh and $2 for the spirit"

Plain Sailing for Girls.

Woman's Home Companion:
 It is indeed a good time for girls to live, and l think they should realize : by whose effort it became the good time" Do they ever think what wo- men and girls had to contend with be- fore this time dawned upon the world. and how much they owe to some of these same women? Just think of it! The women breadwinners of the United States, by the report of the last cen- sus count away up in the millions, and it is not so very long ago when not only the industrial avenues, but those of education as well, were closed to girls. Think of their lack of oppor- tunity even half a century ago and contrast it with the present. What were the possibilities of education? Un- less she happened to be the daughter of a family who believed-in advance of the age-that a girl had the brains and ability to learn, and that education would not spoil her or make less of a woman of her, and a family could af- ford to give her private masters, she had to be contented with the merest common school education, less, even, than children get now in the lower grades of the grammar schools; and even that was grudgingly bestowed upon them.

Honest Farmers Loss.

New York Herald.
 A wealthy provincial farmer who came to Paris recently has just con- fided to the police how he lost almost his entire fortune. A charming demi- mondaine suggested that he establish a roulette table in her establishment. The provincial was delighted. Marvel ous to relate, however, some one sue ceeded almost every night in breaking the bank. Not until the fourth failure did the coniding farmer become sus- picIous. Then investigation showed that the croupier was friend of the lady in the case. and those who won were other friends. The croupier, who could make the little ball roll any where has been arrested.

more about the management of her property than an infant in arms.
 When the men of affairs told her that to pay off certain accumulated debts tho hotel in Rue de Calais would have to be sold, she merely said she would go into the country. and gather ing up her books there she went.
 Soon everything else went in the way of the hotel in Paris.
 The farms that had shed their har- vests of the gold of Brest. and the broad lands of historic Vile h'Avray: ancient Jeu de Paume of Louis XVI that he gave to Clery-all melted into the air or were appropriated by the ravening sharks that fed upon her credulity.
 All, everything. until there was noth- ing left but the rattling walls, behind which she camps in the plidst of dis order: resigned and awaiting the in evitable day when she must move on to the promiscuity of a hospital, or join her once powerful father. and her husband. should death intervene to Ntay the hand of her tormentors.
 Alone, neglected forgotten, with the occasional noise of the new triumph Of someone whom she knew long ago. someone who knows no ideal worlds and to whom Parnassus will ever be in the Latin quarter, the story of the Comtesse de Treguain is one to tempt the dramatist: her home one to tempt the seeker after bric-a- brac, and her pale face one to tempt the painter who strives for psychology in color.
 My hrst sensation of pity rapidly gave way to warm sympathy as listened to her.
 Roobed. deserted. forgotten, with s2 years on her bent shoulders and the chimera of fame still beyond her. with no living friends about her but her oogs. for whom. lest they suffer too great a privation, she had denied her seif food for as long as thirty hours she waits-and waits.

More Hunger. Less Rheumatism.

 A well known physician writing in the Medical Record declares that the most prolific cause of rheumatism Is indigestion "If only such food" he says. "as can be easily digested were put fin the stomach thehe would be lit tie heard of rheumatism" It follows as a matter of course, that one of the most effective methods of treatment for rheuma tism is through the dietary. "The longer I can stand hunger the less rheumatism I have" says this writer, but in many cases the remedy is worse than the disease. In other cases. however a perpetual hungry condition is the lesser evil. l have taken this cure partially. but never have been quite able to do so fully. It is not a popular treatment.
