The Unpopular Woman.

Who is she? Why Is she unpopular? Is she to blame, or is she the object of a diabolical conspiracy to shut her out from the enjoyment of a circle of friends?
 Did you ever notice how quickly, easily and amusingly she tears new acquaintance to tatters, or with what gusto she rolls under her tongue choice morsel of unpleasant gossip about an acquaintance of longer stand ing? Did you mark her intuitive ap-- preciation of small faults and little vanities, and her unmistakable delight In magnifying them or holding them up to ridicule?
 Then you know she has not one friend. because those who might be friends are afraid. They see she Is sharp and cruel. They have heard her keen satire, her sarcastic jibes.
 This type of woman always gives you the uncomfortable feeling that the moment you leave her she is going to make merry at your expense. For that reason you never quite gave her your confidence The longer she per sists in her bad habit the less likely she Is to ever reform, and unless she reforms she cannot expect to win friends.
 The old proverb warns us not to speak i'll of the dead. Common sense protests against speaking i'll of the living. And herein Is the true ex- planation of the unpopular woman.- Chicago Journal

STORIES ABOUT SEALS.
How n Young One Was Made a Pet
 and Afterwards Ran Away.

ana Afterwards Han Away.
 Some people think that seal has no intelligence, but a writer in Our Little Ones tells the story of seal which was found by a man who was out fish ing. and that later proved to be quite wise in its way. The seal was young one. ard the man found it fast asleep upon dock. and gently lifted it into his canoe. The poor thing cried to get back into the water, but it's captor wanted it, and so he carried it home, fed and petted it until it became quite tame and would go about the house like little dog. Indeed, after few weeks it grew so fond of its new home that it would not stay away from the house more than an hour at time.
 When it was let out of doors it would go to the rocks beside the sea-for the family lived near the seaSide-and would slide down into the water and dive about for a while, catching fish. Then it would come back and climb up on the porch and lie there and cry
 O be let in. But one day he went out a get his dinner in the sea and that vas the last ever seen of him. It was helieved that he followed the tide far ut into the ocean. and there met some nf his old playmates, who persuaded lim to stay with them.
 Another story is told of a seal that resented an intrusion and whipped a monkey. This was a seal that belonged D travelling show. After feeding the monkeys one day the keeper carelessly eft the door of their cage open and in | minute they were out and swarming III over the menagerie. After an hours hard chasing the keepers got the mon- keys together again, all except Jocko, who would hang by his tail and grin just out of the keepers reach.
 At last they succeeded in cornering him, and in desperation he leaped to the cage over the seals. at the top of which was the opening through which the seals were fed. Finding his pur- suers closely upon him. he jumped into the cage and down upon the seals plat form. The big performing seal resent ed the intrusion and proceeded to catch the monkey. now thoroughly frightened, between the huge nippers, alternately slapping and biting him. The teeth of the thoroughly subdued monkey did not stop chattering for half an hour after he had been rescued from his plight

Where the Artist Is Sometimes Re
 war,ied with n Shower of Coin. When the crowd grows particularly enthusiastic in a little concert hall in the heart of Little Italy, nickeis and dimes and quarters. and sometimes larger coins will flash through the smoke-filled air at the singers on the carpeted platform, says the New York correspondent Of the Cincinnati Times Star. These white -toothed. dark-brow- ed, vivid artists never de;gn to notice the silver shower while they are sing ing. But at the close of a song, they grab earnestly for these material evi- dences of esteem. For these gifts are the only pay they get. It sometimes happens that the crowd doesn't loosen up readily. In which case the propri- etor hands a number of his particular friends pieces of money, and at the end of the next song there is riot of "bis bis" and a hail of money on the smeary stage. The singers, of course, return these pieces to the pro- prietor, who does it again. But the other night the men at one table did not throw the money they had been given The singers looked toward them expectantly. and they just grinned i'm pudently. The proprietor came down to reason with them and they sneered at him. And then the angered artists, feeling that they were being deprived of their rights, assailed the short change specialists, first with vocal and later with chinaware reproaches.

What Is TubercuIosi.

It is the ever present scourge of the human race. It is called consump- ton when the lungs are affected. Taken in all its forms, it is the cause Of one-Seventh of all deaths. The germs of the disease are most often carried in the sputum of a consump- tive and are usually distributed in the form of fine dust that is blown about by the air.
 But consumption is a preventable disease The germs are killed by sun light and fresh air. In damp. dark places they will live indefinitely. Peo- pie who live in overcrowded and bad ly ventilated rooms are especially H. able to to contract the disease.
