pose Of the girl ourselves"

ly, "and have her severely punished.
my dear Marcia, nothing could be
gained by that. Hallam would be sure
to see her again. She must be placed
beyond his reach. We will send her to
Aunt Somerset"
She drew a letter from her pocket
bearing the motto and crest of her an
cient relative and read from it these
lines:
Should you, in your travels among
the mountains, chance to find a wait
ing maid who does not mind a box on
the ear or the rap of cane, and who
can hold her tongue on all occasions,
you may send her to me, for today l
have packed that French baggage,
Zephine, out Of the house, and will
have no more of her kind in it."
1 started at Ada for moment, then
burst into a fit OF laughter.
In ten minutes our plot was laid.
We wrote letter Of explanation to
Aunt Somerset, then sent my maid,
Felce, to invite Kallam to drink tea
with us in our private parlor.
He came promptly. Ada had put on
a travelling dress in preparation for her
Journey. She met him with a gay
smile.
You dear, good fellow, 1 am de-
lighted to help you!" she cried. Il am
sure the affair does you credit See, 1
am quite ready to bear you company"
He thanked her in a pleased, sur
prised way; it was plain that he had
no suspicion of treachery.
We all talked in the most amiable
manner and Hallam drank two cups
Of Ada's strong tea. l drew back the
curtain from the window.
THE clouds are breaking" I said,
lightly. After all, you will have a
fair evening for your journey"
Presently Hallam looked at his
watch. 1t was seven o'clock. With a
heavy sigh he flung himself down up
on Ada's sofa.
MY head aches abominably," he
said. I'm afraid your tea was too
strong"
Strong tea is good for headache"
smiled Ada.
After while we ceased talking, Ada
and I, and looked at each other. He
was lying against the arm Of the sofa
silent, motionless. I touched him
gently. He did not move-he was fast
asleep.

IN GOD WE TRusT."-This is the
motto which is stamped on all our sill
yer and gold coins. Yet 1t was not un-
til 1864 that it became a custom, and
the first coin which bore the motto
was a copper two cent piece which
was coined on April %, 1864, especially
to have this motto stamped upon 1t.
The idea was originally suggested by
man from Maryland. who said that
as we were a Christian people it was
only meet that we should make proper
recognition Of the fact in our coinage
The motion was taken from the ma

Blindfold a Londoner Of the centre,

then take off the bandage and ask him
where he is. The chances are ten to

the London World. They are not in
habited by Londoners in the true
sense, but by people whom accident
or necessity has brought within the
metropolitan area and who would be
just as happy 200 miles away. Their
atmosphere is not metropolitan. They
are not of the centre. They are on the
fringe.
That is why London has so little To-
cal pride. 1t Is not a community Ii
Is a congeries of suburbs, each with
its separate narrow interests, grouped
around a little city whose citizens
have so wide horizon that they can
spare next to no attention for local az
fairs. How can civic patriotism be
expected from a man who spends all
his week ends at a house in the coun-
try, the spring on the Riviera, the
autumn in Scotland or the Mediterra-
mean? London is to him only an incl
dent with boundaries probably small
er even than those which I have sug-
gested.
The real Londoners are those who
would not consider life worth living
anywhere else. The real London is
the small space wherein are to be
found the interests which fill their
lives. Hundreds of thousands Of SUBJ
urbans have never seen a picture In
London. never been to the opera OF

fringe.

constant subject of bewildered COM
ment. It is the littleness Of London
which astonishes me.

her. The fine clothes that she wore

That girl was the envy Of her associ-

known. She had pretty face and
wore costly dresses. She would have
been beautiful in calico, but the lust
for fine clothes ruined her. She was
not a thief at heart, but, being poor
and too ambitious, she stole to wear
silks and satins.

wickedness, but it Is true. There Is
more drinking among the sober class,
more lewdness among the better peo-

than ever before, and this, in compar-
ison to the population. Honesty, and
virtue are not held in as high esteem
as they were ten years ago. Marriage
vows are not as binding. There are
women in Charlotte who spend more
on clothes than their husbands make.
This class is on the increase.-Red

In 1851 pineaples were rare in San
Francisco. One day in that year one
of the passengers who had crossed the
isthmus Of Darien before leaving Pam
anna purchased from one Of the ma
tives Of that place a dozen pineapples
for a quarter of a dollar, and when he
landed in San Francisco he had six

landing place at the foot OF Vallejo
street, where there were boat steps al
the end of twenty foot wharf, which
new arrivals approached by Whitehaa
boats from the steamers that In those
days anchored in the stream 300 yards
from shore. The man was accosted
suddenly by a stranger who asked him
what he wanted "for that lot Of pine
apples"
They are not for SALE"
But I want them," said the Cali
fornian.
I'll sell you three" said the new ar-
rival, who on the voyage had heard
that San Francisco people were liberal
buyers, and he added, but they'll cost
you IS EACH"
Take 'em," was the curt reply, and
the fruit changed owners, the resident
passing over a Spanish coin known
then as a gold ounce" worth SIG In

Before the new purchaser had moved
across Battery street, where the trans
action had taken place, he was accost'
ed by an acquaintance, who asked him
to let him have the fruit A dieker

Duplication of names of the towns
and cities of the state has been the
subject of investigation on the part
of the railroad commission and a
movement has been started to change
the name of a number of places that

two or three times. Railroad COM

but no great progress has been ac-

that there are about thirty places,
