lane and a good pair of steppers,
said the lover.
Obi said Margaret, opening her
eyes wide, but that would cost so
much money. We should not be able
to afford that, should we?'
EdwardWelby looked up at her curl
ously. Once or twice lately she had
talked about expense and extravaganza
Was it possible that she was ignorant
of the fact of her fathers wealth, and
did she then believe that he was en-
amored of her own plain face? The
idea almost made him laugh. She
could not he thought, be so utterly
childish as to think such thing.
though of course before marriage it
was the right thing to talk about love
and to ignore the money part of the
business; but she must surely under
stand that he expected to get some
equivalent in exchange for his good
looking face and handsome person.
We'll, he said slowly, Il hope we
may be able to afford it; but pulling

garet. every place must be paradise >
and poor, fond, foolish Margaret be-
lieved him, and was supremely hap
py.
The morrow came and with half
past nine the VISITORS bell rang
and Edward Welby was admitted and
shown straight into the rich mer-
chants dingy little back study.
When he saw the matter of fact,
decided-looking, bald little gentle
man who was his would-be father
in-law, Mr.. WeIby did not feel quite
so much at his ease as he did when
he was making love to his plain
daughter.
Good morning, sir, said Mr..
Durnford. Pray be seated. Excuse
me whilst l finish reading this let
ter and he pointed to chair.
Mr.. Welby sat down, and Mr.. Durn-
ford finished his letter. 1t was but
three minutes that he was kept wait
ing, but during those three minutes
his courage was gradually oozing
away.
well, now, Mr.-Welby, said Mr..
Durnford at length, Il understand
that you are anxious to marry my
daughter.
Il love her very dearly, sir. and
with your consent
Exactly, Mr.-Welby' with an irri-
tating pause before his name, and
understand that my daughter loves
you very dearly
4 i am proud indeed to believe it,
Mr.. Durnford, replied the lover,
modestly.
Well, yes. Young ladies are often
enthusiastic; still, as Margaret is my
only child, l am naturally anxious to
accomplish her happiness.

Well; -we--we-w see about the

question or two, Mr.. Edward Welby,
that l should be glad, with your per-

"A dozen, Mr.. Dnrnford, if you
like!'
Well, to begin with, what makes
you love my girl so much?' fixing his
sharp eyes keenly upon him over
the top of his spectacles.
'Sir?' stammered the yonng man,
quite taken aback. 81 don't quite

Don't you, Mr.. Welby? 1 am surely
speaking plainly enough. Why do
you love my daughter?'

PASSING OF SOUTHERN HEROES

Almost within the week there
have passed from the stage of ae-
ton two of the South most illus
trious sons, the beloved Reagan.
the last of the official household of
President Jefferson Davis. while
on Monday last Tennessee consign-
ed to earth the illustrious Bate,
her Grand Old Nam and one of
the South's ablest, brayest and
most faithful sons. Truly, the
Reaper pauses not.
General Bate was a noble char
acter and his career, covering a pc
Rod of sixty years from first to last,
was one of exceptional honor and
usefulness.
Fifty-nine years ago, we find him
serving as a private in the army
that invaded Mexico. After that
struggle, he returned to Tennessee
and was elected to the legislature.
Like Reagan, he studied law af ftteeff
his public i Life e had commenced. In
1854 he was elected district attor-
ney for the Nashville district and
served SIX years, and during that
period he declined a nomination
for congress. In 1860 he was &
| Breckenridge and Lane elector.
! As a Confederate soldier he start
ed as a private and was rapidly
promoted until he became a major
general.
At the battle of Shiloh he dis
tinguished himself, his command
being in the hottest of the figh
throughout the progress of the en-
gagement. From the close of tn
war until 1882 he held no publ
office. In that year he was electe,
governor of Tennessee and was re
elected in 1884. He left the gov
ernor's office to take a seat in tn
: United States senate in 1887. tn
year that Judge Reagan entere,
that body, and served in that ca
pacity until the day of his death.
I In war and peace, in public an,
, private station, he brought to tn
discharge of every duty all tn
best qualities Of a noble manhood
He was brave, honest, faithful
able and industrious. He leaves
name that will be an inspiration
to all who will contemplate hi
long and useful life.

uE-ALTH AND BEAUTY.

Dull eyes With hanging lids are often
induced by apathy and Indifference.
Dr. Mosse, a French physician. al
firmed the good results of administering
potatoes in certain forms of diabeste.
He states that he has effected cures by
this means.
The best and healthiest trade in the
world is that of dyemaking from coal
tss Tar and the smell of it is the best
,if ell tonics and tissue builders. The
average life Of tar worker is Sc years.
The mortality is so per cent lower than
in any other factory trade.
If you want to be young, don't alE:w
yourself to think on your birthday tho:
you are year older and so much nearer
the end. Never look on the dark side;
take sunny views of everything; sunny
thought drives away the shadows. Be a
child; live simply and naturally and
keep clear of entangling alliances and
complications of all kinds.
It's strain on the hair to be curled
and coiffed in devious ways all winter
and many fashionable young women
are giving their locks a rest just now
by dressing them very simply, minus
the Marcel wave and various other addi-
tons to beauty, One girl discovered that
she was running her hair by too frequent
treatments and curlings and the re-
suit is that among her friends visits to
the hairdresser have grown less fire.
Quent, for whatever else the surlmer girl
can afford to lose she can't afford to lose
one strand of her hair.
1t is highly important that Crime ac.
cumulated in the day should be removed
before lying down. Neglect of this rule
will cause shallowness and blackheads.
The face should be washed with hot
water and soap, be rinsed in many waters
and be dried thoroughly. Next, really
good skin food, quite free from wax.
spermaceti and salted lard and contain
ing little or no glycerin, may be applied.
If liquid, it should be brushed over
the parts. If more solid it should be
gently spread. Any massage below the
eyes, or at the eye corners, is sure to
make wrinkles. A brush has marvellous
effect on the softer skin lines.

PROPER GIFTS FOR GIRLS.
Pretty Things That Are Appropriate
and Will Be Greatly Ap-
preciated.

An attractive addition to almost any
girls dressing table would be one of
the new hat pin holders, for in these
days of inexpensive, yet variegated,
collections of hat pins, receptacle in
tended especially for them is most ac-
ceptable. These holders are made of
silver and look like tiny vases, some
being dull, others of bright silver, in
very attractive designs, and they can
be bought for from two to four dollars.
Another article for strictly feminine
use that is rather a novelty is the van
ity bag; this is in reality shopping
bag of very good quality leather, which
has snugly tucked away a mirror that
is large enough to see ones whole face
in, instead of necessitating a study of
the countenance in sections, as is the
case with most mirrors that are in
tended to be carried about with one;
another compartment of this vanity
bag contains powder puff, with
place for powder, and there is also
space for small toilet articles.
Then there are belts of all sorts and
descriptions, and for we'll dressed girl
a belt is always an appropriate gift.
The newer patterns in silver have the
buckle, the piece at the center of the
back and the slides at the sides con-
nected by tiny silver chains which are
very effective when the belt proper is
of some delicate shade of soft ribbon.
In this same style daisy pattern was
particularly noticeable and unusually
pretty; over the foundation belt there
was a row of silver daisies about one
inch in diameter. and an inch and one
half apart, and these, too, were con-
nected by the little chains. In addition
to these novelties there are many
beautiful designs in buckles only,
which no doubt appeal to some girls
rather than the newer fussier fads. to
say nothing of handsome belts of leath-
er with buckles of brass or enamel.
Almost every girl is the owner Of
writing desk, and she would naturally
welcome some one of the dainty desk
| furnishings that are to be had at a
very small cost. Small candlesticks
in plain or embossed silver for use on
desk, inkstands in some ornamental
metal, and penholders of a substantial
design in silver are always acceptable,
and in leather goods there are desk
pads and dainty little clocks in leather
cases. And in this connection a most
useful present would be writing paper.
Find out the quality and make of
writing paper that the girl prefers and
give her not a little old 24-sheet box,
but good supply that will fill up the
/ spaces in her desk and make it look
business-like, so that she will have all
the material at hand for writing her
notes of thanks.
