AN AMATEUR DETECTIVE.

Ascertained Facts by Sherlock Holmes
System of Deduction.
Sherlock Holmes has a promising RI
val in barber known to the Philadel-
phia Record. He astonished one of his
customers the other day by asking him
If he were not left-handed. The man
admitted that he was, and suggested
that the barber had probably seen him
hang up his hat.
NO" said the barber; 81 have other
ways of finding out such things. l see,
to, that you are bookkeeper."
YES" admitted the customer your
guesses are correct. How do you
know?"
Its easy" said the barber. "Tn
shampooing your head noticed ink on
your hair at the left temple. This ink,
| concluded, must have got there from
a pen resting on your left ear, which in
dicated that you were a person who
used pen great deal, as only such
persons use their ears as pen-racks.
THAT didn't convince me that YOU
were bookkeeper, however, because a
literary man might stick his pen behind
his ear for convenience. | learned of
your profession when l applied the
lather. This made the ink on your hair
wash out, and discovered two shades
of ink-red and black. Nobody but
bookkeeper uses red and black ink. so
it was easy to class you as bookkeep-
er.
81 knew you were handed be-
cause the ink was on the left side-the
side that left-handed writer would in
voluntarily use when sticking his pen
back of his ear"
Wonderful, wonderful" said the
customer. Now, suppose you stop
talking for while, and finish shaving

with a plate litter When the negative
is redeveloped enough, fix for three
minutes in weak hypo bath-one
ounce hypo to ten of water-and wash
for half an hour in running water. The
operation may be repeated if the mega
tive is not yet satisfactory. This for
mula may also be used for intensifying
weak negatives.
The ambitious beginner, starting out
with his first camera, is very apt to
make the mistake of fancying that the
more comprehensive the view he can
get upon his plate, the better will be
his picture. A few trials, however
serve to show him that the Camera g
not adapted to this kind of work, and
that the view which embraces "all out
doors" Is fiat and uninteresting from
the fact that all details are so minute
as to require a good deal of study to
identify them. The camera worker Of
experience seeks rather to obtain small
bits of scenery which repay him much

cellent opportunities will present them
selves for the photographing of reAec-
tions, which in quiet pools or deep and
slow running rivers often make very
charming subjects for the photograph
er. 1t is good plan in photographing
these reflections to break the surface
of the water in the immediate fore
ground by throwing a stone or stick
into it just before the exposure Is made,
thus giving variety to what would 9th
erwise be perfectly unbroken expanse
of water. Exposure In such cases
should be full, and development direct
ed to the bringing out of all details,
care being taken, however, not to de-
velop so far as to produce an over
dense negative.

Died of improvements.

An uptown physician tells of a Ger
man friend, poor journeyman baker,
who sent his wife to local hospital
when she fell Ill. The physician al
ways asked with interest after the con.
dition of the sick woman when he met
the German, and was told in reply:
well, doctor, they say at the hospital
there's improvement" This reply did
not vary from day to day for a month
or more, and was always spoken by
the German very stolidly, as though
he really did not see In the report any
grounds for hope. Then one morning,
meeting the physician and being asked
the usual question, he said:
20, she's dead, doctor"
"Deadr repeated the physician.
What do they say she died off"
"They didn't say-they didn't have
to-" answered the German. 81 knew.
She died of too many mprovements."-

Captain now Rear Admiran Schley,
but he has a greater distinction than
having been a member of this expedi-
ton. He is one of the three survivors
of the Jeanette expedition. He was
steward of that Inflated vessel when,
In 1879, she sailed on a voyage of ex-
ploration in the Arctic seas. His splen-
did physique and natural hardness were
all that brought him safely through the
hardships, exposures and horrors of
that terrible experience.
Charley joined the Jeanette expedi-
ton at San Fra 1cisco. He was then
an experienced sailor, having served
aboard American merchant ships in
various capacities He acted the part
of a hero during this trip, and when
he returned the Navy Department. in
recognition of his services, presented
Charley with a handsome medal. Upon
1t is inscribed: Charley Tong Sing,
Arctic Steamer Jeanette; Fidelity,
Zeal, Obedience" On the reverse side
is picture of the old frigate Consttu-
ton, and the words, United States
Navy" By special act of Congress,
September 80, 1890, another medal was
presented. 1t bears the date upon which
the act was approved by the President,
and around it the words, "Jeannette
Arctic Expedition, S79-1SS2." On the
reverse side is presented the Jeanette
in the Ice, with the crew waving her a
farewell. The medal depends from 4
clasp held in the beak of a silver eagle.
1t was not great while after the
Jeanette adventure when Charley
Tong Sing started with Capt. Schley on
the Greedy relief expedition. After his
return from that voyage he served in
the navy on the Tennessee, and then he
decided to abandon the life of a sailor.

MOTHER IN THE WEDDING GOWN.

Here's picture of my mother in her wed.
ding gown. Ah me,
7 wonder if there ever was a fairer bride
than she.
Not a wrinkle on her forehead, not line
denoting care
Can be traced upon her features; what a
wealth of wavy hair
Fell away from her fair temples! And
the smile she wore that day
Was the smile of one whose sorrows still
were lurking far away.
! can fancy that my father, as he gazed
upon her then,
Must have held his head up proudly,
favored Ger all other men:
And, beholding the sweet beauty of the
face depicted here,
/ imagine | can see him, young and ar
dent standing near
/ have loved-and l can see him as he
caught her to his breast,
When the strength of youth was in him
and his lips on hers were pressed.
The picture of my mother, taken on her
wedding day,
Shows the face of one whose sorrows
were all lurking far away,
And a fairer bride than she has never
charmed a man, l trow-
Yet there's one whose smile is sweeter
than her smile was long ago,
One whose brows have many burrows
proudly looks sometimes on me-
And | see the fondest, gladdest smile a
man may hope to see.

his handsome face.
"My dear Geoff, do be CAREFUL said
the lady, with laugh; and then she
| advanced to the stall where, as a rule

ems.
SIS this Mrs. Radley's stall% she
asked, with a surprised glance at the
girl, who rose from her seat.
"Yes, maam," said Angela, with the
demurest air. "She has just gone out
of the market for a moment, but l am
looking after the things for her. What
can serve you with, ma'amY
The man was still looking at her, but
Angela took not the faintest notice oil
| him.
"a dozen eggs, please" said the lady
getting out her purse, and looking
about her; "and- Oh, what lovely
roses there are on the next stall! Are
those yours?"
Eyes, ma'am," said Angela with
alacrity. Twill you take some? They
are quite fresh this morning"
"Give me half the bunch, will you
please? How much? That is right,
think. Perhaps you could bring them
out to the carriage for me?
"Let me take them, Maude," said the
man stepping forward. There is no
need to trouble any one to carry your
parcels when | am here. Is that ALP
"Yes. You look rather absurd with
that basket of eggs and the roses,
Geoff; but have your own way. Good
morning"
The man cast glance at Angela and
lifted his hat, as he followed the lady
from the stall; and Angela withdrew
to her seat with a mischievous smile
curving her red lips.
OF course, be thought she was farm
er's daughter, or something of that sort,
and she laughed TO herself at the rec
objection. He was such nice-looking,
soldierly man, too; and she wondered
who he was, and where he came from,

people were. Didn't | play my part
well? 1t was quite amusing, and

you have, If they are not solo, said a
voice; and Angela turned swiftly, to
find the good-looking man beside her.
He was looking at her with a queer
smile, and she reflected that he might
have heard her remark.
Certainly, SIR" she said, remember
ing her role. q
Thanks very much. Good-morningw
"Why, he has given me too much.

in dismay, as the man disappeared.

Godfrey Lawler and Angela are like
