tenor; he played the guitar for her at
the window in the evenings when the
other boarders wished him sick or dead,
or something Of that sort; he sent her
costly flowers and forgot his business
entirely, which is sometimes the way Of
men in love.
But Miss Agnes Dickinson, which was
the name of the young lady, seemed I'M
responsive to his appeals. Indeed, she
did not hesitate to inform the dashing
young lieutenant that she had precious
little confidence in what unmarried army
officers, who had been educated at West
Point, had to say about love. She had
known too many of them. She had seen
a half dozen of her young female friends
heartbroken because they had listened
to, what some of them had had to say
when the moon was soft and the chick
ems had been to roost a very long time.
One day she went into more specific
details. She asked if he had ever known
Lieut. Ewing Did he know Ewing? The
question fairly took his breath away.
Was it possible that she really knew
who he was-that he was sailing under
a false name But he did not permit his
mental perturbation. to betray him;
Why, certainly" he replied. Il know
him quite well"
They say that he is handsome; that ne
is bright, and that he made gallant
officer in Cuoa." was her reply
To acknowledge possessing these gifts
and that afterwards he should tell her
he was Ewing would be an act Of vain
gloriousness that might operate against
him.
"WeI, I don't know so much about his
brightness. Neither would I swear that
he is handsome; and for his department
in Cuba I think he did no more than the
other members of his regiment. Still. he

himself of this speech he felt easier. But
he was treading on dangerous ground

Proper SCHOOL Ace for GIRLS.

DR.. S. Weir Mitchell deliberately MAIN
talns that for all the best purposes Of
female society it would be better that
American girls were not educated at all
until they were seventeen than that they
be overweight, as they are at present.
They study seven or eight hours a day
when two or three would be sufficient to
keep their intelligence in train:ng-ard ali
for what? TO spend their after years
on sofa or sick room, and to be bur-
den instead of a help to those who are
dearest to them.
1t is a tremendous saying, from one
speaking with authority, that as much
domestic unhappiness is caused in
America by nervousness among women
as by dram drinking among men. Yet
such is DR.. Mitche1ls verdict.
He holds that every girl ought to be
examined as to her nervous temperament
when about to go to school and at fire.

exercise and wholesome meals ought to
be insisted upon. and that studies ought
to be compulsOrily diminished or discOn-

Woman's life. But let there be no mis-

Unique Decorations for Luncheon.
A suburban woman, entertaining rather
hastily at luncheon the other day, and
having only vanilla ice cream at her
command, cleverly adapted the potted-
plant service of city caterers with the
resources within her reach. There was
no greenhouse in the town, but there was
cemetery, and from the gardener in
charge dozen unused tiny earthen pots
We're procured. These were carefully
washed and dried and fitted with a lining
of oiled paper. Into each then the vanilla
cream was packed and chocolate was
grated thickly over the top to simulate
earth, and a little sprig of maidenhair
fern thrust in the center. They were
served on plates, with fern leaves laid
loosely around the base, and were re-
ceived with great admiration by the
guests.

MARY AND THE MEAT TRUST.

Mary had a little lamb,
With mint sauce on the side:
When Mary saw the Meat Trusts bill
1t shocked her so she cried.
Mary had little veal
a outlet, nicely broiled:
Her papa, to pay for that veal,
All morning sorely toiled.
Mary had little steak
A pOrterhOuse, quite small;
And when the bill came in. she sighed.
NO dress for me next fall"
Mary had a little roast
AS juicy as could be-
And Mary's papa simply went
Right into bankruptcy.
Mary isn't eating meat:
She has a better plan;
She vows it's ladylike to be
A vegetarian.

dainty underwear. The material is net
used for men for underwear alone. but
also for negligee shirts in the more close
~ woven varieties, and also for pajamas.
1t is not always called the ''open-meshed'

A NEW TINE FUSE.
Gen. Crozier Says No Warship Can
Stand Against It.

New York. July 3e.-A new time fuse for
use on armor- piercing shells loaded with
a recently discovered secret explosive of
great power, has been invented by war
department ordnance experts and WILL ac-
cording to a New York dispatch from
Washington, revolutionize foreign war
ship building.
Tests of the explosive and fuse have
been made, and SO long as the United
States government holds the secret for
efgn battleships either must double their
steel walls or be as wooden frigates
against the new destroyer.
General Crozier, chief of ordinances is
quoted as having said that a test of the
new explosive had been conducted with
eminent success at the Sandy Hook prov
Ing grounds, that the shell carried it's con-
tents through the thickest armor, and
that the fuse lived long enough to have
exploded in the interior of ship of war.
The greatest penetration secured was that
of a shell fired from Pinch gun It
pierced 14inch krupp armor before de-
t0nation. The heaviest shield now in use
is said to be only 12-inches thick.
