The cigar fell from the fat fingers of Ireland, and he stared in amazement at the young man. Tt is rather late in the day for that, is ::tt not.. no asked.
 Better late than never,' quoted George.
 "A proverb is no answer" said Ire land testify.
 ''Then, if you wish to know, sir, am in love-"
 That is no answer either"
 Tt will lead to very explicit an- swer," rejoined the young man coolly. Love leads to marriage, and in my case marriage cannot take place un- less know that am legitimate.'' ''Of course you are. I have always maintained that you are"
 What proof have yoH?" asked George eagerly.
 Ireland hesitated and wiped his mouth in quite an unnecessary man ner with a red silk handkerchief. Your father always declared that Miss Lockwood was his lawful wife, and treated her with every respect"
 "Did my father ever tell you where the marriage was celebratedT
 No; I never asked, nor did your grandfather Lockwood. It was not till after your mothers death that Lord Darlington denied the marriage Then MT. Vane was in Italy and never troubled about the matter"
 "He should have done so for my sake" said George indignantly.
 Certainly, and I urged him to do so," said MT. Ireland heavily. q was in Italy at the time, and you were only an infant in arms"
 "Who was my nurse then?"
 Jane Fraser, the Scotch nurse who afterward brought you to your grand father Lockwood when MT. Vane was murdered.''
 "Do you remember the other nurse, the first one I had?''
 MT. Ireland grew indignant and puff ed angrily at his cigar. T do, indeed he said wrathfully, "a vulgar, forward hussy. She was not bad looking either and set up for being lady" Here he began to laugh. Would you believe it, George, my boy, she was in love with your father and showed it so plainly that he was obliged to get rid of her?''
 ''What was her name?"
 Eliza Stokes. And she was hand some in bouncing way"
 What became of herr"
 T can't tell you," said Ireland, with sudden reserve.
 "Did you see her after she was dis missed?"
 Ireland turned his cigar slowly and did not look at George when he replied. 'Yes, did. When and where it does not matter"

TEACHING BY SONGS.
Chicago School Trustees Adopt stCul

(To Be Continued.)

Chicago School Trustees Adopt tsCul-
 turaI" Melodies For Pupils.
 The schoolboy's nature is to be sof- tened by music, says the Chicago Trib- une. Songs have been adopted by the Chicago school board calculated to Inspire in him love of animals and nature. He will sing about the autumn leaves, the squirrel, the hungry spider, the wren and the robin.
 The seeds of patriotism will be sown by songs of inspiring measure. All the songs to be sung in the schools are ''culturap' and are intended to refine the tastes of the pupils and convey to them unconsciously sense of the ..joy of living" The list of songs adopted for use in the schools during the next year was made up with great care. The first grade songs are divided into three classes, autumn songs, winter and Christmas songs and spring songs. Included in the autumn list are such songs as Falls Leaves, 7 Little Gypsy Dandelion,.. .tThe Squirrels Tea,' ''The Hungry Spider" "The Ponies" .'The Bugle," Signs of the Weather and ssThe Moon"
 Some of the winter and Christmas songs for the first grade deal with the following subjects: Winter" Snow ing and Blowing" "Snowbirds," "The Sleigh Ride, Ion Snowy Day." s.The Snow,' The Trees,'' .sThe Windmill, ' Christmas, 7 .sThe Soldiers Song,'' "sing a Song of Workshops and "A Prayer"
 The spring songs include the follow ing: Dairy Maids" May Is Coming z ssWrens and Robins" '"The Butterfly, !" "out Tn the Country" My Dolly, 7 "The Drum" '"The Mill Wheel" .grhe Wind Song to Venus, ]" ''Dew Drops,i' When the Stars and Spring Is Com ing
 l The autumn songs for the second grade bear such titles as Little Doves,' .'The Pet Lamb" Song of l the Bluebird,'' Indian Summer, ,, "The woodpecker,' October Winds of Evening" .sThe Squirrel," 1" 4sThe Ap- pie Tree" and "A Child's Thanksgiv- ing"
 The list for winter includes songs ] dealing with the ESk1mos ana such Nke In this list Is also included I "Hark, What Mean Those Holy voices7' and Heavenly Father The spring songs of this grade include songs about the rafH9 winds, the swal- lows, the robin, Afay time, the morning glory, the violet Tie list for the eight grades contains nearly 200 songs, Tn l the upper grades the songs become heavier and more difficult to learn. "Hail Columbia" and nearly all of the national airs are prescribed for these l grades.
 Many of these songs are to be taught during the winter to the thousands of | foreigners attending the free evening schools. It is urged that these foreign born love music and will readily take l LID the American national airs

COMFORT IN AN AUTOMOBILE
Electric Brougham That Abounds Tn
 Original Devices.

Electric Br0ugham That AbOunds In
 Original Devices.
 There is no man in New York city prouder of his automobile and proba- bly none with better reason than Rob ert Graves, says the New York Even ing World The machine, an electric auto of the brougham type, construct ed after his own ideas and built un- der his own supervision, took seven months to build, and it's cost is esti- mated at nearly $15,OoO. ta
 The machine is constructed of alu- minimum plates finished to resemble mahogany, and, although it carries a storage battery of sixty-eight cells, enough to run the machine at rate of twenty miles an hour for sixty miles, it weighs only 5000 pounds.
 The cells of the battery are so ar- ranged that the front wheels carry the weight of twenty-eight of them, the rear wheels the remainder. The auto mobile has carrying capacity of six persons and is provided with four folding seats, with an aisle between them for easy access. The car can be completely closed in by windows with aluminium frames and is heated by electricity. The vehicle is provided with an ordinary hand brake and an electrical brake, which enables the driver to stop the car without Q jerk within few feet.
 One of the most interesting features of the vehicle are the numerous little attachments which greatly increase the ease and comfort of the travellers. There are lamps for reading, chro- nometer, an electric cigar lighter, 8 stationary rack provided with reading matter, letter paper and envelopes a cardcase and small case for post age stamps. The reed of the signal horn is protected from dust by 8 fine screen, and every part of the delicate machinery is carefully guarded from dust and dirt by rubber curtains and ScrnepS o@ -vzs-.o
