DICKENS AS HE WAS IN 1883
Interesting Description Of Great
Writer Published In tho knIcker-
booker Of That Year.

In person he is q little above the
standard height, though not tall. His
figure is slight, without being meagre,
and is well proportioned. The face,
that first object Of physical interest, 10
peculiar, though not remarkable. An
ample forehead is displayed under q
quantity Of light hair. worn in q mass
on one side rather jauntily, and this
Is the only semblance Of dandyism
In his appearance. His brow is
marked, and his eye, though not large,
Is bright and expressive. Tho most
regular feature is the nose, which
may be called handsome; an epithet
not applicable to his lips, which are
too large. Taken altogether, the
countenance, which is pale without
sickness, Is In repose extremely
agreeable and indicative Of great re-
finement and intelligence.
Mr.. Dickens manners and converse
tion, except perhaps In the perfect
abandon among his familiars, have no
exhibition Of particular wit, much less
Of humor. He is mild in the tones Of
his voice, and quiescent, evincing
habitual attention to etiquette and the
conventiona1isms Of polished circles.
His society is much sought after, and,
possibly to avoid the invitations press
ed upon him, he does not reside In
London, but with lovely wife and
two charming children occupies re-
treat In the vicinity. He is about 20
years Of age, but does not look more
than % or "a. Mr.. Dickens ia er,
tirely self-made, and rose from an
humble station by virtue OF his moral
worth, his genius and his industry

CHANGE IN CANDLES LUCK
Finds q IS Bill, Then Two Tens, bU1
the Next Find 10 Something
Else.

George Gamble struck 4 streak OF
luck the other day. Mr.. Gamble, IN
cidentally. Is manager Of the POre
Marquette fast freight line. He walk
ed into a hotel in Kansas, and there,
upon the lobby floor, he saw a small
green wad. "A IS BILL marveled Mr..
Gamble when he unrolled it.
A week or 80 later he ambled into
the lobby Of another hotel in another
state. The first thing his eyes lit
upon was a pellet of green near the
clerks desk. Business of making a
hurried dive for 1t and then discover.
Ing two $40 bills, packed together.
Mr.. Gamble observed that he was
sure enough In the middle Of the lucky
curve. He wondered what he would
find next
He came to town, walked into the
Cadillac, and there, in the middle Of
the lobby floor, appeared that familiar
little emerald bulb. Mr. Gamble
sidled toward 1t, trying to look as II he
was looking another way. Just at
that moment a small dog butted In.
He seized the little green wad and
frolicked toward the street. Mr. Gam
BILE abandoned his pretense at indif-
ference and dived for the mutt.
Grab um," begged Mr.. Gamble;
"catch um."
A gentleman standing by the door
obliged. He took the little bundle out
of the dogs mouth; then he looked
up at Mr.. Gamble. This yours?" he
asked
Mr.. Gamble thought he would take a
chance. Yep" he said; "it's mine.
just missed It,"
The gentleman handed over the bun
die with an odd look at Mr.. Gamble.
and went away hastily. Mr.. Gamble
examined 1t. The wrapper was Of
soft green paper. 1t had broken in
several places from the dogs teeth.
Inside was a pair Of lady's garters.-

fEMEMBER THE LOVED ONES
Pathetic Religious Ceremony That Is
Observed by People of the
Isle of Ushant.

In the Island Of Ushant-the isle
of Fear"-there exists a custom prob
ably unknown in any other part Of
Christendom. When a native dies
abroad or is lost at sea, his relatives
have small wax cross made, some
seven inches long. This is solemnly
taken to the church and presented to
the priest, who deposits 1t in a box,
shaped like cinerary urn, that hangs
on the south side Of the altar of st.
Joseph. This Is called the PRO Ella"
cross, and is supposed to stand for
the spirit Of the dead. These memo
rial symbols are allowed to accumu-
late in the box till the next church
mission comes round. AS these revi-
val services are held only once in ev.
cry four or five years, the number OF
crosses may be very considerable. A
day is then set apart for their solemn
interment. 1t is the great day, the
climax OF the mission. The church is
draped in black and crowded with a
mourning congregation, many OF
whom break out into loud wailing
The crosses are brought from their
urn in solemn procession, requiem
mass is said over them, and then they
are carried to the churchyard, tho
iron door Of the tomb is unlocked, and
they are Inferred with full honors.
Throughout the year hardly a day
passes but some pious soul comes to
sprinkle the tomb with holy water
and say a prayer before it for the
dead.--Wide World Magazine.
