and smiling breahless, her delicate nostrs CULVER
ing as she painted, she bowed her thanks, especially
in the direction of the big young fellow whose blue
eyes never quilted the daughter of the Emr.
She bowed and the audience returned her saluta-
tion as though she princess; the good souls OF
St Malo looked with awe on her bespangled rament.
Pierre also bowed trying to convey to her some ex-
preston of his admiration, his wild devotion, min
gled with sincere respect.
Ladies and gents'' said the manager, 'Mlle.
Kadja will take up a collection for her own
benefit. What you give her will be for herself. DO
not forget the daughter of the Emr of Bskra. Mile.
Kadja has not always been obliged to dance in pub
lie. Let hope your generosity Will recall to her
the palace of her eminent fatherl"
Little smokers of mirh from the Parsians greeted
this speech, which made in a sarcastic Tone A
smile even passed Kadja's mocking red
lips; but Pierre took it all in good faith, and turned
pale with pity. "Poor, poor girl, he thought, how

donors rapidly by pretty caressing Arabian word,
and all at she stood before Pierre Pomerio, who
had also risen As her soft, dark gaze met his blue
eyes, ahl how he longed to snatch her in his and
tear her from this booth lie stared at her tiny ears,
pink as the shells he gathered the beach at home,
her lovely face her sweetly perfumed hair and stood
for moment speechless, trembling with emotion.
This fairy was unlike those he had heard Of for she
was pretter, a thousand times pretter, when
close by.
She began to laugh and without speaking shook
her tambourine though to say: every well-but
what next2'
Ah-truel Everybody had given her something.
Pierre fumbled in his pocket at hazard, gathering
sous, silver, all the change he could find, and let his
fist fall into her receptacle. There a chinking
sound the copper pieces rolled against the silver.
Kadia bushed little smiled and sad "Ohl'
Then in French, with her fresh, sweet, infantine
voice, she added: ''Did you mean to give me the
heart, too?''
:" HeartR What do you mean?'
Pomerio looked down and saw that with the money
he had brought up like big fish in netful of
shrmps, the heart of Jersey granite-the heart
bought for he didn It know whom-Marie, Jeanne,
Anne or. Lilly-and had let it fall into the tam

heart find sweeter resting place than the white

into his own as she said very sweetly, THANK you

cord valuable information published
in the different papers and magazines
of that class? The majority of your
readers will find it difficult to salts
factorily devise proper headings under
which to file data, SO as to admit of
ready reference. A drawer full of
books and pamphlets is not very con-
venient in which to find anything. A
writer of your wide range could easily
prepare list of subjects with proper
sub divisions so that with these
guide cards an ordinary mortal could
make notes ON a suitable card, and
drop it before proper guide card tor
future reference. | frequently make
notes on cards in this wav, but in i'll
ing them have found the difficulty
referred to, and and occasionally have
to rewrite my notes and change my
headings. Take the subject of graft
ing, it admits OF many subdivisions,
outside Of the civic variety. and it
seems to me that a main guide card
|
GUS sub divisions in black, would
make it SO simply that any one would
know how to keep such information
in "getatable' shape. There IS much
valuable information which could be
noted in toto ON an ordinary card, 3x5
and where space was insufficient there
complete reference to the original
source could be inserted"
l confess that | have not given much
thought to such a method of cards. /
would feel my incompetency to get up
such system of cards as here recon-
mended. Only person who had Civ
en- the subject much thought could
hope to succeed. l feel quite sure
that man who can give such a good
outline of proper method as friend
Hamilton has in his letter here quot
ed, could do far better than | could.
[ know that many methods have been
tried by students to preserve clip
pings from papers SO that the matter
wanted could be easily found. have
tried some of them to some extent
but confess to more or less disap-
pointment in their use. One method
is to use large envelopes with divi-
sions and Subdivisions written on the
outside while the clippings of course
were put on the inside. l confess that
| have generally come out in the use
of these envelopes as the man did who
could not find his hat one morning.
He spluttered as men do in such a
state of mind. His wife said to him :,
'My dear, you ought to have place
for your hat. 81 have'' he replied,
"but can't find the place. That
has been my experience in filing away
clippings, l know l have place for
them but the difficult is to find the
place. | thank friend Hamilton for
his valuable suggestions, but am
too much engaged to work out his
suggestions and so ! will ask him to
do it, for it is clear to me that he
has thought of the matter to better
purpose than | have.
