turn from the marble mantel at the

The girl sprang forward, q cleaning

cheeks.

1t was the old pet name for her when
she was a little child. When she grew
up a fair girl graduate, with golden
hair" she was Miss Florence" Now
the old name sprang first to his lips.
Both her slender white hands rest in
his own-not reluctantly now. The
man in the shadow of the velvet por-
tiere looks on with compressed lips.
All, he recognizes him now-his rustic
rival Of three years ago.

With womans quick perception she

For a moment she is a shy girl again.

suitors and countess coronet, she has
faithfully guarded the love awakened
three years ago-the true love that
fiourlshed when the false love died.
Have you no better welcome, Flor

Silence! This lady is my promised
wife"
1t Is Edgar Reynolds, white with
rage, who speaks, but Florence turns
to him with her calmest, sweetest
smile.
You are mistaken, Mr.. Reynolds. A
pretty girl with whom you hirted three
years ago helped to pass the time. but
she was only shy, wild rose, and you
could not afford to ruin your prospects

Ortol is good all around developer
for snap Shots where pyro is disliked,
but with all its staining qualities, pyro
can be excelled. Pyro and metol in
combination is developer that can be
adapted easily to long or short expos
ures by diluting the developer and a
much under-exposed negative can be
made to yield fair print by leaving
1t IN diluted pyro-metol developer
until well stained through the film.
Such a negative is disappointment to
look at but the print is better than
the negative in detail and contrast.
The amber color of a pyro developed
negative, although thin, makes 1t a

dense, black and white negative devel.

should be only absolute opacity in the
very highest lights, such as the
glancing of the sun on the crest of the
waves, and absolute transparency only
where the lines require to be pure
black. Between these two extremes
these must be even gradations through

HE GOT THE HAlF-DOlLAR.

One of the best dog stories which has
been told in long time is related In the
Nashville Banner. The narrator of the
anecdote was driving in town in Mis-
sissippi with the owner of the dog. To
show the animals cleverness he got out
Of the carriage, held his pocketbook To
the dogs nose, and then taking there
from a half-dollar, hid 1t under large
rock. The men drove on for half.
mile, and then the dog was commanded
to fetch the half-dollar.
The animal, without the least hesita.
tion, started back on a rum and my
friend explained that as the rock was
heavy the dog would be unable to turn
1t over, 80 would have to scratch under
II to reach the piece OF money, and II
would naturally take him some time. 1t
did, for he had not appeared when we
retired, about 10 o'clock
Early the next morning we heard a
sharp bark at the door. When the door
was opened In rushed the dog, dragging
with him pair OF trousers which he
dropped on the floor.
or course we were mystified, but the
explanation soon came In the shape OF

made much OF by society at the capital.
Senor Quesada is descended from an
old Spanish family. One of his ances-
ors, Gonzales Quesada, was governor
)f Porto Rico. The Quesadas held
,arge estates In Cuba and before the up
rising were among the rich families Of
the island. His parents were suspected
of disloyalty to Spain and were expelled
from the Island.
Young Quesada, who is about thirty
five years of age, was educated In New
York City and is graduate of the Col

NEW PIPES FOR SMOKERS.
Come from Philippines and Some Use
full for War Clubs.

The Increase In the number of tourists
to the Philippine Islands has flooded
New York with various styles OF pipes
that are new to local dealers. They are
In the main unique and are more valu-
able as ornaments and additions to col
lections than for the actual satisfaction
obtained from smoking them. Yet pipe
smokers who always are on the lookout
for something novel have grabbed them
up and wouldn't trade an old reed stem
and coblike bowl for the finest meer-
schaum in town.
The large Morro pipe, which Is intend.
ed to serve as war club when not 9th
erwise In use, is by far the most novel
Of the recent importations rom the
Philippines. 1t has an immense stem,
covered with short barbs, and the bowl
is of sufficient weight TO make II dan
gerous weapon when welded by ma
tive Filipino. There are several of these
Moro pipes In this city, and smokers
have taken TO them with alacrlty sim
ply because they are queer.
one pipe smoker Is the owner OF
highly priced specimen that was carved
out of steers horn. A bowl of briar
was inserted at the end and connected
with a reed stem tipped with amber.
He spends his evenings smoking his
pipe and couldn't be induced to try any
other. 1t is heavy and hard to handle
but he likes 1t, nevertheless.
Some curious designs are to he found
in the collections of pipe smokers who
appreciate carving. One man who con
sumes a pound Of tobacco every week

FRIENDSHIP.

What is the best a friend can be
To any soul, to you or me?
Not only shelter, comfort, rest
Inmost refreshment, unexpressed.
Not only a beloved guide
To thread life's labyrinth at our side.
Or with loves torch lead on before.
Though these be much, there yet is more.
The best friend is an atmosphere
Warm with all inspirations dear,
Wherein we breathe the large, free breath
OF life that hath no taint of death.
Our friend is an unconscious part
OF every true beat of our heart;
A strength, a growth, whence we derive
Gods health, that keeps the world alive.

In his address before the convention
OF the Photographers Association of
America, Lucius W. Hitchcock said the
following, which is excellent advice for
any amateur: Get your impressions
from nature, and don't try to manufac-
ture them In cold blood. Art is largely
a matter of seeing. 1t Is the same old
story of a young student starting out
With his sketching outfit, and walking
-FOUR miles to find something to paint,
and the master doing beautiful things
IN his back yard. Not that everything
Is beautiful. and worth painting, for it
isn't but there are lots of beautiful
things that you will pass every day
because you have not the eyes to see
them. Keep on the alert for beautiful
combinations and arrangements all the
time. You are just as apt to see them
in the street cars as anywhere else, and
If you store up a reserve of souvenirs
Of this sort you will do more original
and better pictures. 1t Is far better
than copying what another fellow sees
and does before you"
