THE PRICE WE MUST PAY.

The thing that we ought to do,
But the tempter comes with a Turing
SPELL
And his wares have a roseate hue;
And we say, This once, if aside we
look,
1t will never count, 1 trow"-
But what of the one who keeps the
book?
And don't you suppose he'll know?
Do you fancy that sin will leave no
scar?
That law may be well defaced?
That you carry no mark of what you
are
Far out on the other side?
The wrong that you did another yet
bears,
Will carry it all of the way,
And sure is the time when, unawares,
1t will come, by your side to stay.
Oh, I know right well-e'en my blind
ness sees
That the price we shall not escape:
The penalty comes despite our pleas,
To haunt us, a grizzly shape.
Forgotten neglect and the hayward
deed,
They shall stand, an accusing row,
With only the good we have done to
plead
For those who have strayed below.
San Francisco Call.

ooh, for seventeen pockets and a
place to carry my money" sighed the
woman shopper at the close of a busy
day. II think there is a fortune in
store for the person who can invent
some safe and convenient method for
a woman to carry her money. A purse
in the hand is absurd, a bag is not
much better, for you may put it down
| absent-mindedly or quick thief may
grab it; a chatelaine bag at the waist
hits against you when you walk, and
the little money case around your neck
inside your dress is safe, but not con-
venient to get at"
The other leaned toward her conf
dentially. Did you ever try your
stocking?"
Eyes, 1 did" confessed the other,
Just once, and it was awful. 1 had
plenty of money with me, but couldn't
get at it. 1 had to get everything sent
up C. o. D., and 1 had to give up ice
cream soda simply because l couldn't
get the money without a scene. 1 felt
perfectly indecent, too, and was worry
ing all the time for fear that something
would happen to me and 1 would be
found with roll of bills in my stock
ing. Never again for me-" And she
shook her head at the remembrance.
But 1 am still looking for a scheme
that is really safe and sane"

Eugene Field on one occasion gave a
most interesting account of the trans
lation of Sarah Bernhard to the legi-
innate stage.
Field attributed this translation to
Col. Horace KGblee, then editor of the
Milwaukee Sentinel, who was at that
time guest of Madame Bernhard at
one of the hotels in this city. The
poets account of the matter is as fol-
lows 1t was while Col. Rublee was
United States minister to Belgium that
ne visited Paris for the first time. Be
ing then a young and enterprising man,
he explored the French metropolis thor
l oughly, and one evening happened to
attend a performance at the Theatre
vabiety houses with which Paris
abounded at that time. 1t was here
that he first saw and heard Sarah
Bernhard, then a mere girl, doing a
song and dance. The unusual beauty
and subtle grace of the young actress
impressed Une sagacious diplomatist Sc
absolutely that he determined to inter-
est himself in her behalf.
In a few days he had set her case be-
fore the American minister anC
through the influence of that officia
10 secured an audience with the directory
10 of the Coincide Francois, who finally
70 consented to give the girl trial in the
role of Phedre. From that day to the
present time Bernhard has trod the
fiowery path to glory, and it is said t
her credit that she has never forgotten
the kindness done her by her gooC
,, friend, Monsieur lie Colonel!
3, She said to me the other day: wiz
I, out Messieur lie Colonel vaire littl
good would my art do. He find me il
i re song and dance, and he say: 'Sairia
q you are one-what you call me-daisy
a Ozzer men see me again, but gay ne
vaire see me to be one daisy. Monsieu
lie Colonel knows one day wnen he see
t me and call me one daisy"
