The German empire has uniform

Italy, Switzerland. Denmark, Norway

The west European time Is the time

And that the purpose succeeded is
seen in the report that Irish lace, al

cool greens and grays OF the room
took on a little flush, and her face
shared it.
The next hour would decide her
life; she was gambling with Fate, and
there was a pleasurable excitement
about 1t.
It mattered little to her which
came first; the colonel could give her
devotion. not to speak Of his wealth
and position.
The doctor could give her an equal
devotion, and the companionship Of a
keen and vigorous intellect.
Jack did not count. She had given
him the rendezvous only that she
might complete her revenge. He was
not really in the running.
Why should she marry again at

scheneotady's Freak Sent to the
Smithsonian Institution.


Schenectady, N. Y.-Schnectady has
lost its six legged frog. the only
known specimen In existence. II Is
a frog with history, too, from the
time II was captured In New Zealand
until 1t left the other night for the
Smithsonian Institution In Washing
ton.
II was found several years ago on q
marsh. not far from Auckland by H.
Wilson of 302Umon street, this city.
while Mr.. Wilson was accompanying a
party of British engineers ON march.
"A marsh along the route was being
drained, and among the FISH and water
creatures left by the receding water
his frogship lay festively basking In
the sun, proud in the possession OF an
extra pair OF legs.
For some time 1t lived and thrived
in tub of water until an untoward
accident brought It's finish. It had
never been educated up to the point
where It could appreciate soap and
water and one day when someone
thoughtlessly threw some suds into
the tub It was too much for Its hobo
nature. and the only six legged frog
alive was no more. M
The Smithsonian Institution offered
good sum for It and It was sent tc
the national capital by express.

cry Of hounds. The fox ran into

toward him and trotted along by his
side, just as a dog would do. waggine

but the clergyman and what seemed
to be his dog, and galloped away In
another direction. AS soon as the

He stopped abruptly, and she
turned her face to his. She noted the
labby lids OF his eyes. Still
She opened her lips to say yes"
and in moment was surprised to
find she had said no"
When he had gone, she went to her
own room again. The lilies oppressed
her; their perfume seemed heavy and
weak. She buried her face gratefully
in a huge bowl of vivid red roses,
with cool soft petals and spicy
breath. The doctor had thought them
so like her marked personality and
abundant vitality when he selected
them.
She rang.
