leine at once busted herself in the pretty occupation of serving tea to her guests.
 With an air of jealous proprietor ship, Carleton moved toward her, and, looking handsome, though sulky, stood by Willard with folded arms, as if on guard.
 Urged on by daredevil spirit of mischief, and perhaps remembering that Madeleine would soon be beyond his reach as Carleton's wife, Tom el- so moved toward her from the other side. Endeavoring to treat the situa- ton lightly Madeleine held up new ly-filled teacup
 .'Who will have this?" she asked gaily.
 "I will" declared Carleton and Tom at the same time. and each held out hand.
 smilingly.
 Carleton's face was white and set; he was evidently making a serious matter of the trifling episode.
 Tom on the contrary, was smiling broadly. and was quite evidently en- toying his rivals discontinue. 'I shall give it to you, because you look so pleasant" declared Madeleine, handing the cup to Tom. "Now. Schuyler, smile prettily and you may have one, too.''
 But Carleton would not fall in with her light mood.
 Bending a little, he said in tense voice, T will leave you to your cousin | now. Tomorrow I shall assert my 1 claim"
 Though not rude in themselves the | words were accompanied by harsh l and disdainful glance that made sev- eral of the onlookers wonder what sort of life the naughty Madeleine l would lead with such a coldly tryan- nical husband.
 'The brute!' said Tom, under his breath, as Carleton left the room. | ASOSCi hiihu, nielouy, IHc OAu l LII h has left you to me for this evening, and we'll take him at his word.'' | Suddenly Madeleine's mood chang ed to one of utter gaiety. She smiled | impartially on all. She tested with the girls, she bewitched the young men with her merry banter, and she almost seemed to be flirting with Tom Willard. But he was her cousin after all, and much is forgiven g bride-to-be on her wedding eve. Robert Fessenden looked at Mis-. Van Norman with puzzled air. Ht
 couldn't seem to understand her ana was glad when by chance the two l were left comparatively alone for : few moments conversation.
 "A great responsibility devolves or
 the best man, Miss Van Norman" h.
 said in response to a chaffing re
 mark of hers. 'I suppose that to.
 morrow I shall be general director Iin1chief,. and if anything should gt
 wrong, I shall be blamed"
 'sAh, but you won't be here to hea,
 the praise heaped upon me, so what the use?''
 'tNo, shall be gone forever" sai
 Madeleine, putting on one of her far | away looks. 'T never want to com,
 back to Map4eton. hate it.'' Il CTo be continued)

No Criterion.

Once during the progress of certain case Sir Charles Darling demonstrated with barrister for the way in which he was arguing point.
 You will pardon me, my lord," said the latter. but perhaps I may remind you that you argued case in sim liar way yourself when you were at the bar.''
 "Yes. I admit it,'' replied his lord ship, with a quiet smile, tbut that was the fault of the judge who allowed it. . London Tit-Bits.

i.ext Door to It.

An acquaintance of the late Josh Billings was one day talking with him about the remarkable increase of imf- tations and substitutes for original articles, as ''oleomargarine" for 'but- ter" .'celluloid' for ivory" and so forth, and" said he, many of the substitutes go ahead of the real thing I guess in time there will be substi- ute for everything. though I don't know about wisdom
 s'No;' replied the humorist, up tt the present time at least there is nc really good substitute for wisdom. But silence is the best that has so far been discovered"

Killed by Fear.

Frederick I. of Prussia was killed by fear. His wife was insane. and one day she escaped from her keeper and dabbing her clothes with blood, rushed upon her husband while he was dozins in his chair. King Frederick imagined her to be the white lady, whose ghost was believed to invariably appear whenever the death of member o1 the royal family was to occur, and ht was thrown into fever and died il six weeks.
