think my mistress, Phi1omene, the
most beautiful woman | ever saw
yes, and the sweetest and the gen.
tlest and the best. And she says that,
next to my father, she loves me bet
ter than any dog she ever knew.
But 1 am not the only one who
loves Philomene.
The Man has often said to me, when
Philomene wasn't around: Paddy,
old man, really believe you love your
mistress nearly as much as 1 do;
which shows that he doesn't really
know how very much I do love her.
1 knew that Philomene loves the
Man, too, for 1 have watched her night
after night take his picture from its
place on her dressing table, and kiss
it tenderly and say such sweet things
to it. Just as if a picture could hear
and feel! Why she doesn't say those
things to The Man himself I can't
make out; she says them to me.
One night The Man and Philomene
went out alone, and when they re-
turned The Man came in to get warm,
for it was very cold out of doors.
They went into the tea room, and I
followed them there and curled up
under the table. 1 must have fallen
asleep for when l awoke 1 was sure
that The Man had gone, for 1 heard
my mistress talking to the picture,
just as I heard her so many times be-
fore. She was saying:
''Of course 1 love you, dear. You
must have known it for long time.
I tried so hard not to let you see it,
and yet I was afraid in my heart that
you wouldn't. That's the woman of
it you know"
! I looked out from under the table
the picture, but to The Man. They
were standing by the fireplace, and
The Man had his arms around her,
and the light from the fire made her
cheeks as red as the glowing Goals in
the CRATE. The Man was saying:
Sweetheart, my sweetheart, I love
you-ah, how I do love you! You
have foolishly set me on a very high
pedestal, but will try and be worthy
of the priceless love you have given
me-"
Philomene raised her face and The
Man kissed her, and as he did so
felt a funny feeling inside of me, and
i wanted to rush out and bite him on
the leg, but I knew my mistress
wouldn't like that, so I restrained my
self

tress a little package of letters. and

overtaken by Retribution.

Lord Eldon records a strange COIN
cidence. A man was murdered and his
assailant escaped. Twelve years later
the brother of the murdered man fell
asleep in the bar of a Liverpool public
house. He awoke, feeling somebody
in the act of picking his pocket. The
moment he opened his eyes he ex-
claimed: Good God! That man killed
my brother twelve years ago." The
pickpocket was secured, tried and con-
demned. The evidence showed that
Immediately after the murder he had
enlisted and gone to India. He had
but just landed in Liverpool when he
went into the public house, and his
first act in that city was to attempt
to rob the brother of the man whom SO

Old China as Table Decorations.

Georgina, countess of Dudley, is said
to have been the first hostess who
grasped the possibilities of old pieces
of gold and silver as table decorations.
Old china lends itself to this pur-
pose as readily, as was proved at the
dinner party given by Baron and Bar
oness A1phonse de Rothschild this
week in their fine mansion, Rue Saint
Florentin. The flowers were the price
less orchids for which the baron's con-
servatories at Ferrieres are celebrated,
and the golden and mauve tints of the
exquisite blossoms were thrown into
harmonious relief by the pieces of
green Sevres china placed on the
table. A London hostess not long ago
made a sensation by decorating her
table entirely with La France roses
and using a dinner service of pink
Sevres, matching the flowers perfectly.

A Wonderful Tree.

Most people have heard of the polyp,
that wonderful marine animal which,
cut into a thousand pieces, grows into
a thousand new animals. The same
thing is true of the polyp tree, a
species of cereus, which is abundant
in Paraguay. The minutest piece of
this tree, cut from whatever part,
grows into a new plant. 1t is not nee
essary to plant it; all you have to do
is to throw it on the ground, when it
will strike root of its own accord.
These plants, with their relatives, the
cacti, have the remarkable habit of
deriving their sustenance entirely from
the rain and the atmosphere, for they
will grow and thrive in clefts in the
naked rock where there is not parti-
Gle of earth matter. Their succulent
stems are full of viscous matter
which makes an excellent glue. Rid
ding a garden of the weird tree would
probably be a difficult business.

"It's So Different, So Different"
bear to tell it to you. Still, as you
say, you have a right to know, and 1
will tell you all-the whole truth"
"Yes, DEAR" said Philomene, "all of
it, please"
81 met Helen Burnett at a recep-
ton given by an artist friend in Lon.
don. Her wonderful beauty of face
and form caught me, and before
knew it 1 was, as 1 thought, desper-
ately in love with her. She was an
actress-not so great on the stage
as she was off it-as 1 discovered to
my sorrow. We left London together
and went to Paris
you married herr"
''Well-no, not-you see, she had .
husband living somewhere and she
had not yet secured"
A low moan from Philomene caused
a spasm of pain to cross The Mans
face. He hesitated and then went on.
But 1 intended to marry her just
as soon as 1 could do so. Then one
day, some kind friend-I never knew
who, but 1 have blessed him ever
since-told her that had reached the
end of my fortune; that I was prac-
tically a beggar. When she came to
true the mist cleared from my eyes,
and I saw her as she really was. To
get rid of her was my only thought,
and so did not deny the rumor, but
allowed her to think that it was true.
Later when she found out that she
had been duped, she was furious at
the loss of her prey, and she swore
she would some day get even with
me. Fearful of what she might do,
I sent friend to her with instructions
to buy from her my letters. She sold
them to him for an enormous price;
but it seems that she kept a few Of
them. She has sent them to you
| and-well-and that is all"
Philomene looked at The Mans

A Remarkable Operation.

The left arm of Thomas Shay, Jr..
which had been shattered with bird
shot, was saved by forcing the i'm
poverished limb into his stomach for
nourishment.
The operation ranks among the
most skilfu1 surgical feats performed
at the New Orleans Charity Hospital.
By nourishing the arm in the abdom-
ina1 region the torn ligaments became
reunited, a complete new skin grew,
and after the parts had grown sufi-
cientIy the arm was removed from the
stomach almost intact.
The operation obviated the neces-
sity of amputation, and soon Shay
will be able to use the arm.-New Or.

A Tibetan Monastery.

Nagar-tse Joig. in Tibet, is situated
on the shores of Yamdok-tso, or Scor-
pion, lake. On the summit of a conf
cal hill stand Sanding monastery, a
well-known establishment, of both
monks and nuns, presided over by a
great abbess, the incarnation of the
Goddess Dorje Phagmo. The hill on
which the monastic buildings stand is
ascended by numerous stone steps,
now in a dilapidated condition. From
the top there is a striking view, not
only of the great lake and its noun
famous peninsula, but also of a gloomy
inner lake just below the southern
cliff, known as the Dudmo-tso, or Fe-
male Demon lake. The abbess is a
great lady and the only female in
Tibet allowed to be carried in a Sedan
chair. When she dies she is succeed
ed by female infant in whom she is
supposed to live again. The reincar-
nation of the goddess-abbess is now a
child of z years of age.

OLDEST CLOCK IN ENGLAND.
Erected in 1920 in One Of the Towers
of Peterborough Cathedral.

Erected in 1920 in One of the Towers
of Peterborough Cathedral.
Peterborough cathedral has the old
est working clock in England 1t was
erected about 1920 and is probably
the work of a monastic clockmaker.
1t is the only one row known that is
wound up over an old wooden wheel.
This wheel is about IL feet in cir
cumference, and the galvanized cable,
about 800 feet in length, supports a
leaden weight of cwt, which has
to be wound up daily.
The clock is said to be of much
more primitive construction than that
made by Henry de Nick for Charles v.
of France in 1870. The clock cham
Der is in the northwest tower, some
120 feet high, where the sunlight has
not penetrated for hundreds of years,
and the winding is done by the light
of a candle.
The gong is the great tenor bell OF
the cathedral, which weighs 80 cwt.,
and it is struck hourly by an so
pound hammer. The going and the
striking parts Of the clock are some
yards apart, communication being by
a slender wire. The clock has nc
dial. The time is shown on the main
wheel of the escapement, which goes
round once in two hours.
