Lester and become engaged to her Then a wretched misunderstanding arose, and they quarreled and parted To change the proverb slightly, "They quarreled in haste, to repent at lels. ure'' Soon after the Lesters left Paris and returned to America. He heard accidently of MT. Lester's death, and then a rumor reached him of the young lady's approaching marriage, but he soon lost all trace of her. On his return to America the previous winter, he tried in vain for news of her. They had no mutual friends of whom he could inquire, and he could learn abso- lutely nothing of her.
 The dress which Millie wore was one he we'll remembered, and aroused his interest and curiosity at once. The rest they knew.
 Here peals of laughter met him, and the judge said, gravely: "You have re- lated events up to seven o'clock this evening. It is with the last four hours we have now to deal. You have onfy to begin the story instead of ending it."
 ssYes; go on, go on," they all cried.
 
 deed. for a moment, polished man of the world as he was, but recovering himself, he said: T must leave that to your imagination. It ought to suffice to be told. that the engagement is re- newed.''
 And Miss Lester, or Mrs. Darrah, as she became soon after, was fond of re minding Millie that because she was kind and obliging and returned to the drawing-room to play, as Mrs. Han cock wished, she had been the means of making two people happy for life.
 These same people were ever the best of friends to Millie, whom they loved hardly less than their own children. She was educated as her first teacher had planned, and became an artist of nc small merit; and, what is better, good and noble woman.-Portland Tran script.

Weddle stole off into the arms of Morpheus, gently and sefenely. As he did not snore his wife did not suspect that he had gone to sleep alongside of her, and gave herself llp fully to inspecting the bonnet of the woman in the pew in front.
 Like all things, good and bad, the sermon came to an end at last, but Weddle slumbered on like baby even after a deacon began taking uf: the collection in a hat. When the derby was passed to Weddle, Mrs. Weddle was surprised to see that he did not respond. She nudged him violently to bring him back to his senses. Weddle, awakened with . start, sat upright, and, bewildered, gazed at the hat in the hand of the deacon. Then he shook his head sleepily and said:
 ''No, that isn't mine. Mine is a gray fedora

SURPRISING MOTTOES.
An Educated Chinaman Translates Some Worn on Young S0-
 ciety Lady's Belt.

One of the latest fads is the wearing of belts ornamented with Chinese characters in silver. The characters are generally chosen at random, for, as few persons can read Chinese, the meaning of the hieroglyphics is. re- garded as of no importance. Never theless, in the case, of one of the belt ed beauties, the fashion had an ex- tremely droll result Quite lately she met an educated Chinese gentleman, who expressed his admirat tion of the sentiments set forth in the lettering on her belt. ''It is beautiful" he said, "and congratulate you on the excel fence of your notices, which I think are unusual in your country" "Oh, the sentimen nts,'' replied the gratified owner of the adornment, 'sdo tell me what the characters mean" 'There are but two wishes expressed" said the Chinaman, ''but as they are re- peated several times over know they must be your true aspirations. One is May all my enemies die by torture, ; and the other is, May I have 50 sons' !"

ORIGIN OF BICYCLE-DIVIEG. c.
Feat First Performed by a Roman Youth on the Banks of the
 River Fiber.

The idea of diving on a bicycle orig mated with a bright and clever Roman youth of 22, named Umberto Diamanti feat which called for nerve and dar- ing of high order, together with the ability of powerful and rapid swim mer. The idea was to ride along the top of the artificial embankment of the Fiber and plunge into the river be- yond. The diver must retain control over the machine, not only after 1eav- iEg terra frma and plunging dizzily into midair, but also during the awful and breath-catching descent to the surface of the water. After sinking deep down with the machine, he must swim to land with it--a most awkward and even dangerous rescue" to effect when beyond ones depth. Thus it may Ge sesen that the contest was one which ga2ed for more than the average Rsnount of physical endurance, as well &s for steady head and unshaken Nerve, says Pearson's Magazine.
 A very interesting contest was ar- ranged between young Diamanti as cyclist and his rival, Borghi, on foot. This weird and extremely novel race was easily won by the iron-nerved cyclist, both as regards time and clean jumping.
 There was tremendous excitement just before the race came off, and dense crowds lined the high embankment that skirts the Fiber. The excitement was quite at fever heat when the order was given-"Go!" and both cyclist and foot runner started off at terrific race. It seemed hardly possible that any sane man could deliberately ride a bicycle over so appalling precipice; but, what is much more remarkable, Sig. Diamanti not only did this, but actually retained his presence oEmind throughout the entire descent through the air as well as on striking the water, and even beneath the surface, for he brought his troublesome mount to land with little or no exertion, amid the frantic applause of the spectators.

Many correspondents, writes a, con-

subject of 'the centenary of trousers"
but l have not observed that any one
has said a word about an article of at
tire which was so widely displaced by
the new fashion-particularly in the
rural districts. l refer to leather
breeches. They were not allowed to
pass away without the mead of one
melodious tear. In districts remote
from the centres of traffic they died
hard 1t used to be said that they
were last seen in actual wear in Amer
sham, Bucks, curiously out-ofthe-
way old country town, and l believe
this was so. l remember once asking
an old laboring man, who was engaged
in clipping hedges in that part, wheth
er he had ever worn them. The an
swer was Did 1 ever wear leather
breeches? Why, on Sundays 1 never
wore anything else when l were a
young chap" And how did you find
them?" l inquired. "Ekally warm IN
winter and cool in summer" was the
reply; but they had one drarback. If
you happened to get 'em soaking wet
you had to sleep in 'em for a week. :"

was the answer, IF you hadn't, you'd

when Dogs Go Mad.

Speaking of mad dogs" said man
who deals with members of the canine
tribe for the various ailments to which
they fall heir, "the popular belief that
dogs go mad because they cannot get q
sufficient quantity of water is not al.
together correct. No doubt a lack of
water at certain seasons of the year
has a great deal to do with it. Dogs
need a certain quantity of water, and
they must have it, else they will suffer
that kind of mental Impairment called
rabies But the most potent factor in
producing rabies, or madness in dogs,
is the lack of meat, the lack Of blood
in the food they eat. The dog is car
nivorOus He must have meat. His
system calls for a certain amount of
blood food, and when he fails to get
this he is denied that which is essen.
tial to his being. More dogs go mad
on this account tnan for any other rea-
son. They are not given the right kind
Of food. / recall one instance of a
uO5 III Il MOUNTAINOUS ACSiOu III al
kansas that went mad He had simply
starved on account of a lack of blood
Before he became violent, and utterly
crazy, he had attacked a calf and
had fearfully lacerated one Of the
calf's legs. He was wild for the taste
of blood We find in this an explana
ton Of that ferocity the dog shows il
the earlier stages Of his madness il
attacking animals Of various kinds
He is blood-mad. If dog owners would
see to it that the dogs get more blood
more of the kind Of food the dog ma
ture demands there would be fewe
cases of dogs with the rabies. "-Nov
