the better restaurants of New York,
and hundreds where you can get a
very fair dinner for so cents, or II
YOU would have wine, for 10 cents ad-

which does an enormous business in
supplying cheap and good food for
Farisians. 1t was founded by butch

100 or more restaurants where yon can

Lavender Leaves.

The waving corn was green and gold,
The damask roses blown,
The bees and busy spinning-wheel
Kept up a drowsy drone.
When Mistress Standish, folding down
Her linen, white as snow,
Between 1t laid the lavender,
One summer long ago.
The slender spikes of grayish green,
Still moist with morning dew,
Recalled a garden sweet with box
Beyond the oceans blue;
An English garden, quaint and old,
She nevermore might know;
And so she dropped homesick tear
That summer long ago.
The yellow sheets grew worn and thin,
And fell In many a shred;
Some went to bind the soldiers wounds
And some to shroud the dead.
And Mistress Standish rests her soul
Where graves their shadows throw,
And violets blossom. planted there
In summers long ago.
But still between the royal rose
And lady lily tall
Springs up the modest lavender
Beside the cottage wall.
The spider spreads her gossamer
Across 1t to and fro
The ghost of linen laid to bleach
One summer long ago.

picture that scene on the fourteenth
of March, 1888, when Charles Thorn
son, the clerk of every Congress since
that first one in the old colonial days
fifteen years ago, announced to the
President-elect the solemn news that
the burdens and the honors of the
Chief Magistracy of the young nation
had been laid upon his shoulders.
Washington had for some time ex-
pected the news and had held himself
In readiness for the journey.
It is interesting to note that 1t took
Charles Thomson seven days to
travel from New York to Mount Yer
ron. Overland flyers" and limited
express" trains make light Of that
journey now.
Before Washington set out on his
trip to New York to take up his stu
pendous duties, he paid visit to his
aged mother at Fredericksburg and
received her blessing. His ride to
New York was in the nature Of q
triumphal tour, for everywhere he
was welcomed by the people with tok-

to her.
At Sheboygan her aunt met her and
chided her for being careless about
the money. In her heart Helen won
dered II The had lost or gained.
The sur amer days passed swiftly,
but when alone. she thought of her
hero, and sometimes of Tom, who
would have been quite wretched had
he known how he suffered by com.
parison, and how slender his chances
were becoming.
But on Sunday he came in holiday
attire, and drove up after dinner With,
as he said, the best single rig he
could get at the livery to take Helen
driving. They drove to the falls along
the pretty lower road, each feeling
the constraint Of an important qucs-
ton to be decided.
Tom, being more nervous, talked
more. Funny thing at little sta
ton down the road" he began. I'VE
stopped for water, and there was such
crowd that l got out to see what
was up. They had just caught a
murderer, man who killed his wife.
He was a fine big fellow, a college
man, they said. 1t seems she was
much older than he and not his sort,
but anyway, he'd married her, and
she'd nagged him ever since, and fin
ally she said something about his
mother, and he struck her,-she fell
against something, and died later
from the effects. Meanwhile he got
away. Last week the detectives got
trace Of him here, but it's only the
last few days he's been seen poking
about the bushes near the track, and
early yesterday morning he came into
town to post letter. They tracked
him into the woods, where he'd been
hiding, but he eluded them and put
out into the lake in a canoe. A little
way out the boat struck sunken
spar and sank. He knew how to swim
but they think he was hurt by the
spar, for after few strokes he went
down. They brought him back into
the village, dead, and there wasn't a
thing in his pockets but withered
rose. He had not at all bad face,
but it's queer what a man will do
when he's reused isn't it,"
But Helen was silent and looking
into her pale face Tom exclaimed in
CONSERVATION, why did l tell you
about the horrible thing. We have
happier things to talk about, and"
He drew her to him unresisting as
he whispered. "Ypu have not forgot
ten, dear, that you are to give me my
answer to-day? What is it?"
Very low it came, "Yes."
The next morning the postman
brought Helen an envelope in which
were two rain-washed five-dollar bills.

A Little Too Enthusiastic.

One of the many things Prof. Brew
er is interested in is the Agricultural
experiment station maintained by the
state of Connecticut in the outskirts
of New Haven. One day the professor
took his sons through the place, ex-
planning to them the different pieces
of apparatus. They were particularly
interested in certain machine de-
signed to smoke cigars automatically,
whereby the finest ash possible is OBJ
tanned and analysed.
81 noticed that the boys were at
tracted by this machine and explained
it to them carefully" said the pro-
lessor, recently. 81 thought no more
about it, however, until one Sunday
found our house full Of smoke. And

New Smoke Burner.

Here is an invention that comes at
the right time. Two practical engi-
neers of Toledo, Ohio, have invented
a smoke consuming device while it is
not a consumer of smoke. It is
simple a method of feeding coal
ground into fine dust direct into the
furnace, much as planning mills do
with shavings. The invention steam
dries the coal, grinds it to dust and
sprays the dust into the fire box with
just enough oxygen to produce instan-
taneous combustion. Little smoke
can be seen and the saving is claimed
TO be 80 per cent. AS the desire Is
to use more soft coal than ever before
this invention will be just the thing
to help it along.
