Painful Photography.

A resolute young lady of five years
found herself before the photogra-
piers camera for the first time, says the
Philadelphia Record She had been
posed along with the other members
of the family and sat as rigid as a
flagstaff, her big black eyes fixed with
eagle gaze upon the camera. After the
exposure had been made tie others
moved away, while she sat as still as
a mouse and as brave as lion, with
every muscle at highest tension, her
legs like two sticks, her hands tightly
crossed, her chest up, the veins in her
neck fairly bursting. She was SO
straight as to almost bend the other
way. Fearing to hurt her feelings by
laughing at the uncompromising RI
gidity of her pose and her searching
stare into the camera, her mamma at
length said, "Come, dear, with NAM
ma"
The anxious child replied through
her teeth so as not to Interfere with
her pose, mo; / amt taken yet"
1t was some moments before she could
be induced to bulge, as she had a firm
conviction that there would be some
visible, tangible sign of the taking"
Great was her surprise few days
later when the proof arrived. She had
been taken" without so much as feel
ing or even knowing it.

A Trick Of the Trade.

Residents Of certain block which
boasts long sustained responsibility
We're astonished recently to see the
basement Of brownstone house con-
certed into blacksmith shop. The
block beheld with dismay, which grew
when 1t SOW the bold signs which
the proprietor put upon his walls. I'res.
emily tailor's shop was opened on the
block. This was the final stroke.
Property began to exchange owners,
and furniture vans were busy for a
time. Then the blacksmith shop and
the tailor's store suddenly vanished.
What had happened? Nothing more
than that some designing real estate
dealers had attained their ends They
had bought few houses and had pur.
pose!y set about depreciating the value
of the adjoining property SO that they
could get it at bargain rates. The black
smith and the tailor were allured By
the bait of cheap rents in the houses
mich the dealers had bought, and per-
haps there was a secret understanding
by which the newcomers in business
Were to make themselves as obnoxious
as possible to the .residents.-New York

her bare shoulders with their burden of
bananas. She was always the link in
the chain behind old Tamasa. her moth
er, and Rafo never had time for more
than one swift glance into her eyes be-
fore Tamasa had deposited her bunch
and whirled upon them with her hawk
like eyes.
It was just the same on shore at the
Tamasa hut-the two links were al
ways together. Tamasa loved but one
thing in the world, her daughter Fana.
Nothing was too good for Fana, moth
ing too high to be hoped fer her. So
Tamasa's keen eyes studied the youth
whose gaze followed the link behind
her in the circlings of the endless chain,
and the result Of the study was made
apparent In open encouragement or
harsh reputation.
At the gang plank Tamasa's eyes
were almost kindly, for Miguel, the
scrutinizer Of fruit, received 3S cents
a day. But Fana's gaze at that point
dropped resolutely to her feet, for Mi
guel was Ill favored and morose
In the ships hold Tamasa's good ma
ture changed to black looks, while Fa-
mas gaze rose swiftly and sweetly and
happily. Rafo received but 10 cents
day, but he was handsome and blithe
hearted and straightforward
Round and round circled the endless
chain, bearing its stream Of bananas
from the wharf to the hold, and like
alternating belts Of sunshine and cloud
changed the faces of old Tamasa and
youthful Fana as they went from gang
plank to hold and hold to gang plank.
Under ordinary circumstances the
gang plank was amply wide for the
loaded chain, bat Rafo's unchanging
politeness in the hold and Fana's per-
sistent coldness at the plank had dark
ened more and more the tempestuous

A long line Of bending figures passed
up the gang plank into the hold of the
vessel, then back by another plank to
the wharf, where they again connected
with the line, forming an endless
chain. Each link was woman, and
upon every sloping back was a bunch
Of bananas.
At the wharf end of the gang plank
q man gave glance at the number Of
clusters, OR hands," upon the punches
as they passed and then called out their
sizes in a singsong "'one-half bunch"
lone bunch" two and half" 'two,"
zone and half" "one," 'tone," "two,"
and another man with a book upon a
board placed across a barrel marked
them down.
Ip the hold two men directed the wo-
men where to place the fruit. Both of
these were "conchs," one a rough, bru-
tai looking fellow, who merely nodded
directions and scowled, and the other q
laughing, jesting youngster, who gave
his orders by springing forward and
helping each woman to deposit her
bunch in its proper place.
Usually the women thanked him with
looks or words, some of them adding,
'You good boy, Rafo," or, "Ev'body
goin' smile on you If you keep on like
dis"
But one link Of the human chain
there was that did not thank him with
looks or words either. She was old
and shrunken, with covetous, suspi-
cious eyes, and when Rafo sprang for
ward she always met him with angry
snarlings and would never allow him
to touch her bunch. But not whit
difference did it make to Rafo His
song or laugh went on just as light
heartedly as ever. and when her por-.
ton of the chain came round again he
was waiting, as usual, with his ready
offer of help, his ready laugh and his
friendly eyes.
Just behind the old woman circled
young girl, . young as Rafo, and beau

feet and tattered garments, In spite of
