HIS CHANGE HAD GONE.
interruption Deprived Diner
Wished-Eor DeIicacV.


A certain woman in Paris gives
periodical dinners, at which assemble
most of the best-known wits and lit
erati of the day. The rule of the man
sion is that while one person dis
courses no interruption whatever can
be permitted.
It is said that NJ. Renan once attend
ed one of these dinners, and, being in
excellent vein, talked without q break
during the whole repast. Toward the
end of the dinner a guest was heard
to commence a sentence, but he was
instantly silenced by the hostess. At
ter they had left the table, however,
she at once informed the extinguished
individual that, as Renan had now
finished his conversation, she would
gladly hear what he, the guest, had to
say.
The guest modestly declined; the
hostess insisted.
81 am certain it was something Of
consequence, she said.
ALIAS, Madame" he answered, sit
was, indeed, but it is now too late! I
should have liked little more of that

When / had finished reading this,
the room was as still as the grave.
We were all waiting for Graviscourt TO

He rose and an involuntary ex-
clamation broke from me. His hair
had turned as white as snow. He
stepped into an adjoining room, and
so certain were we all that he would
not try to escape that none followed

Suddenly we heard a pistol shot, a
groan, and fall. We rushed pell-men
in the direction of the sound, and
found Graviscourt lying on his bed,
the blood oozing from a wound in his
temple.
We stood spellbound with horror
The last scene in the tragedy had
been enacted.
Ralph Graviscourt was dead.

A Game.

Spinning the thread of the stars
Do you know, little girl, how it's done,
When the daylight has gone with it's
jars
And the stars blossom out-every one
And, sitting SO silent, you raise
To the sky where they glisten your
gaze?
It's simple. Close both of your eyes,
Not tightly, till lashes do touch
And then look at a star in the skies
(Remember! Don't close them too
muchD
And see what sight you will win.
What thread all of gold you will spin!
Oh, it's pleasant to sit in the gloom
OF the long old varanda at night,
With mother near by in a room,
Or at hand, lest the shadows alright,
When naught the vast silence mars,
And spin the gold thread of the stars!
Oh. grandma was wonderously skilled
With the distaff and spindle, no doubt:
But she couldn't, although she had
willed,
Have spun such a miracle out
AS you by half closing your eyes
When you look at a star in the skies!

Joke on Jacob RiiS.

Once in a Massachusetts town ia
cob A. Riis was asked by a gaunt, flu
neral sort of chap what he should
say by way of introducing him to an
assemblage. "Oh," replied Mr.. Riis
in a spirit of levity, SAY anything you
like. Say I am the most distinguished
man in the country. They generally
do" Whereupon his serious-minded
friend marched upon the stage and
calmly announced that he did not
know this man Riis whom he was
charged to introduce, and had never
heard of him. Gle tells" he went on
with never a wink, that he is the
most distinguished citizen in the
country. You can judge for your
selves when you have heard him. >

'"Theodosia, l do not wish to say
anything harsh or uncharitable of your

as to charge him with penuriousness,

to make the most trif1ing expenditure
unless assured that it will rebound ul-

half-remembered stirred in his heart,
and he felt a queer flush rise to his
temples. True he was but acting
part, but the part was all at once
strangely real to him.

She regarded him intently for mo-

She laughed.
"Really?"

a seconds silence she clasped her

Danvers grew hot and discounted

pining for him and laying her heart
and thoughts on the altar of his love,
while another woman's face shrined
his own, was very different matter
from Dolly casting his advances and

frivolous style.
He had come home on his vacation
with the express determination of
acting the part of an honorable gentle
man, he thought bitterly, and sacri-

duty. In reality he had come to have
the veil torn from his eyes, and to
learn that life held but one POSSIBLE
