THE“ ps’fir‘édr WOMAN.
She was a phantom of delight .
When first she gleamed upon my sight;
A lovely apparition, sent
To,be a moment's ornament.
Her eyes as stars of twilight fair;
Like twilight‘s. too, her dusky'hair. ,
But all things else about her drawn, '
A dancing shape. an image gay.
To haunt, to startle, and waylay.
I saw her upon nearer view,
A spirit, yet a woman. tool
Her household motions light and free.
And steps of virgin liberty:
A countenance in which did meet
Sweet records, promises as sweet;
A creature not too bright or good,
‘ For human nature’s daily food;
For transient sorrows, simple wiles, .
Praise, blame, love. kisses, tears and smiles.
And now I see with eye serene,
The very pulse of the machine;
A being breathing thoughtful breath,
The reason firm, the temperate will.
Endurance, foresight, strength and skill;
A perfect woman, nobly planned,
To warn, to comfort and command,
And yet a spirit still, and bright
With something of an angel light.
——Wordsworth.
WAS SHE A. FLIRT?
Tall, debonair and smiling: Jack Dal-
ton looked worthy to woo and win even
so fair 3. prize as pretty Norah Carew,
the Belle of Hampden town. And as he
looked at the bewitching face once
more he made up his mind that to night
he would put his fate to the touch and
win—or lose it all.
’ “What energetic people you all are,
to be sure I" said Mrs. Carew, placidly
surveying the two young peeple. “Ten-
nis all day long, and now a dance.
“Where is Gladys, Norah?”
“Here, mother,” answered a calm,
suave voice, and Gladys Hastings, the
well-to-do married daughter, surveyed
her young sister critically as she spoke.
Then, as her eyes fell to the impas-
sioned eyes of Jack Dalton, she turned
hastily away. " ..
“Come, Norah,” she said, “the car-
riage has been waiting some time,” and
in silence the young peeple followed
her.
And now at last Jack will put it off
no longer. The girl he loves with all
the strength of his honest, manly heart,
is seated by his side. They are in the
conservatory and not a living being is
in sight.
“Nora,” he says softly.
The girl blushes a bright pink, but
does not appear to resent his famil-
iarity.
“Nora,” he repeats, taking hold of
the little hand in his, “you knewn al-
ready what I would say, do you not, my
darling? Nora, I love you, love you
more, I think, than ever man loved be-
fore. Nora, will you be my wife?”
The blue eyes were raised for one
second, and in their misty radiance
Jack Dalton read his answer.
“Nora!” broke in a voice in tones
of measured severity, which made
Nora start like a guilty creature. “I
have been looking for you everywhere.
Nora, Mr. Pontifex has arrived unex-
pectedly at home, and apparently, from
what I can gather, does not wish to
meet you first here. So of course you
will at once leave, and——-”
“I do- not see why, Gladys,” said
Nora, but her voice trembled, and her
fair face was very white.
“Then, allow others to judge of what
is'right and fitting under the circum-
stances,” said Mrs. Hastings, sharply.
“I have made your apologies to Mrs.
Pelham; she quite understands the cir-
cumstances. Run quickly and get your
cloak.”
As the girl goes reluctantly forward
Jack Dalton makes a hasty step toward
her, but Mrs. Hastings gently detains
him.
“Pardon me,” she said, in a soft
voice, in which there is a slight ring of
pity, “but I cannot but fear you do not
quite know the facts about my little
sister. If you have been led to think
anything from her manner, I am very
sorry, but it happens so often. Naughty
child] She is a sad flirt!”
Mrs. Hastings gave a gentle, amused
laugh, which died suddenly as her eyes
fell on J ck’s white, stern face.
“Exc‘T me,” he said, in a haughty
tone, “but I do not understand what
you are endeavoring to convey to me.
Why does the advent of this gentleman
appear so important to her, and—”
“Ah, it is as I said; you do not un-
’ derstand the facts!” laughed Mrs. Has-
tings. “They are briefly these: Nora
is engaged to Mr. Pontifex, has been
since the end of the season, and they
are to be married in the autumn.”
The place seemed ‘to swim round
Jack’s eyes, but with a firm resolve not
to be beaten he set his teeth hard and
with absolute composure surveyed
Nora as she returned to her sister‘s
side.
“Is this true?” he demanded, and his
voice to himself sounded far away. Is
it true that you are now going to meet
your alfianced husband?”
Nora looked up startled into his
white, stern face.
“I-—I—” she faltered, but her voice.
broke and she turned away.
"That is answer sufficient,” he re-
turned. “I fully indorse your sister’s
sentiment. Miss Carew, you are a sad
flirt! ’
With a harsh laugh he turned away
as Nora, white and trembling, followed
Mrs. Hastings to the carriage, leaving
him standing alone, desolate amid the
wealth of flowers and sweet scents, a
bitter, brokenhearted man. .
“I have come for my answer, Nora,”
said Mr. Pontifex in his calm, measured
voice.
Something in his assured confidence
made the girl; flush with sudden
anger." .
“By what right do you call me by my
- name?" she asked, passionately, and as
her eyes dwell on his complacent, unin-
teresting face. the girl tells herself she
hates him.
“By what right? My dear Nora,
surely your'future husband may—"
He ends very abruptly, for N orah’s
eyes are . flashing . with. unconceaied
rage. , .
,__ffF.iturs husband 1” She exclélllilfiigl.
‘ listen to me first!
“Eleven By what right have you fol-
lo weal me about, tortured me so the last
few months? I never liked you, never
said I would marry you. How dare
you try to imply that you were ever
treated by me with more than ordinary
civility.
“Your sister——-—”-he says, but with
more uneasiness in his assured tones.
“My sister is not me, sir. She appar-
ently thinks she can dispose of me as
she pleases. I claim the right to choose
for myself in the most important. llol-
iest act of a woman's life. Mr. Ponto-
I'cx, I have chosen, and may I ask you
to be generous enough to in future,
when we meet, abstain from remarks
save those of ordinary civility?”
With a. bow at young empress might
have given, Nora swept from the
room. .. ~
She felt choked, suffocating with con-
flicting emotions.
“Oh, for some air 1” she cried l” And,
catbhing up her hat, she ran from the
house, down the garden to the downs
beyond, where she paused, exhausted,
by a large clump of trees.
As she raised her head at a sudden
rustling, a man came quickly from
within the thicket, and Nora confronted
Jack Dalton. Haggard, white, un-
shaven, he looked aged by many years
from the handsome Jack Dalton of the
night before.
He raised his hat mechanically, and
was passing on, but Norah stopped
“Mr. Dalton,” she 'said, in a trem-
bling voice, which, low as it was.
reached Jack’s ears.
He raised his eyebrows slightly.
“I am at your service, Miss Carewl"
he said, icily.
Nora looked nervously at him.
Would he not help her? No; he was
gazing before him with a blank, set ex-
pression. '
“I—I don’t know how to, say it,”
Nora broke out impetuously, ,"but I
heard you were going away to-day, and
——oh, Jack, don’t look away from me—
I was never engaged
to him. I never even liked him, but
Gladys wanted me to marry him, and——
and I cared for no one else. And one
day, before we came here, when he had
wearied me out, I said I would give him
an answer three months later. The
three months aren’t up yet, Jack, but
he came down yesterday, and 1—1 told
him to-day that I could never be his
wife. Oh, Jack! if you are going away
to-day say good-by to me kindly, for—I
love you, Jack !”
There was an instant’s pause, and
then—ah! thenJack’s strong arms were
round the little weeping figure, and her
wet face was pressed in his—Forget-
Me-Not.
MAYOR STRONG’S CHOICE.
The Lady’s Letter to which He Awarded
' the Prize.
In a recent competition in the New
York World for the best answer to
the question, “Does Wage Earning
Unfit a Woman for Domestic Life?”
Mayor Strong awarded the prize to the
writer of the following letter: “The
best and most contented wife is one
who has marched in line with wage
earners through every stage of mental
and physical tiredness; who, from the
severely practical standpoint of experi-
ence in earning a dollar has learned the
value of it; whose contact with the out
side world has broadened her sympathy
and general knowledge; who has been
denied care and consideration, and who.
through earning enough of a salary.
perhaps, to partially satisfy her tastes
for the beautiful in life, in art or study,
is allowed no time for anything but an
insatiable longing for the same. To
such a woman the care and protection
of a husband, the shelter of a home, is
a heaven. Any womanly woman from
out the ranks of the business world will
prove by a lifetime of devotion and
helpfulness her appreciation of and her
fitness for domestic life if her husband
. be half worthy.”

STRANGE TRAP FOR A WILD CAT.
The Animal Not Aware of the Attractive-
ness of Steel Rails on a. Frosty Day.
What is by long odds the best hunt-
iugstory of the season comes from ‘St.
l-lcgis, says the Anaconda, Mont,
Standard, and the section foreman,
Nels Thompson, who looks after the
snake track at that place, is the hero.
To successfully carry out the Thomp-
son method it is necessary to have a
cold day, a deep stream and a rail-
road track running close by it.
Last Thursday morning, as Thomp-
son and his gang of sturdy Scandi—
navians were pumping their handcar
along the track to their work, Which
that day was along the clay bluffs
east of St. Regis, they were.some-
what startled by the angry snarling of
:1 wildcat ahead of them. They
slowed up the car as they rounded the
blutf, and a strange sight greeted
their eyes. The morning was bitter
cold and a fringe of ice bordered the
banks of the track. Broken ice, and
a wet trail up the bank showed that
the out had just swum through the icy
stream, and explained his present pre—
dicament. For he certainly was in the
gravest, predicament in which ever a
wildcat found himself. He was fas-
tened firmly to one of the steel rails
by one forefoot.
'l‘lie supposition is that tbrf cat hm?
come through the river, and leaped up
the track embankment. His last jump
brought one of his wet forefoot upon
the rail, and, according to the familiar
principle of physics, it froze to the
steel. There he was, held as fast as if
in the jaws of a trap. The ground
showed that he had struggled to free
himself, but his efforts had been in
vain.
As the handcar approached the cat
swung around to face the intruders.
and, in doing so, another foot struck
the rail and was held firmly. A few
more struggles, a strong brace to free
the captive feet, and the two free pedal
extremities touched the rail. Snarllng
and with flashing eyes, the captive
creature watched the section men
alight from the handcar, but he was
incapable of resistance. A blow from
a crowbar cracked his skull, and. the
victim of cold water was dead. It re-
quired a strong pull to detach the
frozen feet from the rail, and when
they did come, patches-0f skin still ad-
hered to the steel.
A Woman’s BightsJEird.
One of the most interesting species
of birds, says the london “Daily
News,” is the rednecked phalarope, a
beautiful bird, of which we see little
in these islands, but which is upon its
native heath in the Arctic regions of
America. It is: especially remarkable
because, as rarely happens among
birds, the female is larger and more
brightly (- Zored than her mate. And
it is the ilC‘D bird that does all the
courting. "The male,” says Mr. Elliot,
“is as cog: and retiring as the most
bashful maiden, turning away from
the proffered attentions, first to this
side, then to that, even flying to the
opposite side of the pool, or to an-
other near by; but all in vain, for he is
followed by the fair one, who has
chosen him from his fellows, and there
is no escape. At last, like any other
poor bachelor so beset, he yields, and
the nest, a slight structure of dry
stalks, is placed in the center of a
thick tuft of grass. The eggs are four
in number. 011 these the poor male, a
victim to woman’s rights, is obliged to
sit 'the greater part of the time, the
female amusing herself on the pool
near by.” '
A Historic Church.
Few houses of worship can boast of
'IS much in the way of history and in-
terest as the old North Church in Bos-
ton. The building itself is supposed
to have been designed by Sir Christo-
pher Wren, the celebrated architect of
St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, and
many other famous edifices. The old
North is celebrated for many things.
.The first pool of eighty-one bells
brought to this country hangs in its
tower. It was from this same tower
that Paul Revere swung his lantern
just before he began his midnight ride
in “those days that tried men’s souls.”
The clock in the front of the gallery
has hung in the same position for 145
years, and still keeps good time. A
fact of especial interest is connected
with the pulpit Bible. It was pre-
sented to the church by king George
II, in 1733, and is celebrated as the
”Vinegar Bible” on account of a ty-
pographichl error in St. Luke, the word
"vineyard” being printed “vinegar.”
An Old Theory Disputed.
~ A physician who draws his conclu-
sions from twenty years of study as :1
specialist, is responsible for the state-
ment that early rising ,may be an in-
direct cause of insanity. 'He cites the
accepted fact in medical statistics that
the percentage of brain weaknesses
is much greater in the farming and vil-
lage communities than among the
dwellers in cities, and ingeniously
reasons out early rising as a chief
cause. “A peremptory command to get
up,” he says, ‘when one's sleep is as
yet unfinished, is a command which
grinds the soul, curdles .the blood,
swells the spleen, destroys all good
intentions, and disturbs for the entire
day the mental activities .of a boy,
just as the tornado disturbs and lev4
els with advancing ruin a. forest of.

that “being :mad all day” for many
continuOusgdays has an ‘appreciable
effect upon‘the mental equilibrium.

How a Yale Student Won a Pretty
Girl.
An exceedingly pretty young lady
passed three students at Lake Whitney
one afternoon last week. On compar-
ing notes the students found phat one
knew her name, the second had seen
her at last year’s promotion and the
third was a stranger. .
The third member of the group was
Jones, ’96, and the young lady Miss B
——-—. Jones made a wager with the
other members of {the group that he
would have a skate with the young lady
in question before the afternoon was
over.
J ones left the group and went in the
direction ‘of Miss B. When within a
few feet of" her he stopped and with a
surprised look exclaimed :
“I beg your pardon, but is this not
Miss B?”
"Why, yes, but I really do not—- -’
and before she could finish, he said:
“Now, you don’t remember me. Why
I ,think I had two dances with you at
the prom last year. Don’t you remem-
ber .Mr. Smith, gave me an introduc-
tion?”
Miss B, in a perplexed state of mind
hesitated. He would not have spoken
unless they had met before, she thought.

Then, as if to make up for her hesita- .
tion, she exclaimed:
“Why, yes, I suppose he did. You
must excuse my forgetting you, there
were so many there that night. Par-
don me," she continued, "but I do not
recall your name?”
“Oh, Jones,” was the reply, and ac-
cording to the story the two spent an
enjoyable afternoon.
The names used in this story as given
in the New Haven Register are fictiti-
ous, but the facts are true, The young

One on John Bull. -
A delightful story from J ohannes-
turg, which is peculiarly timely amid
the present worship of Dr. Jameson and
his freebooters, has just reached Lon-
don. It describes a dispute among a
group of Boers over the color of the
English flag. There was great ignor-
ance and much difference of opinion
on the subject until an old patriarch.
clad in a blue shirt and soiled yellow
moleskin trousers, arose. His rifle was
slung over his right arm, his board was
long and white, his face was yellow
with seventy years’ exposure to the sun,
and his eyes, once clear, were dull. He
knew nothing about the English, was
ignorant of their language, their ways,
and their grievances; but he was solid
on the color of the flag that the sun al-
ways shines on. When he stood up
there was a murmur of 00m Pest and a
respectful pause.
“The English flag,” he said with an
air of placid certainty, “is white.” And
when he explained the various places
where he had seen it of that color, his
statement was accepted.

'story of Joseph and Esther Green who

.’ oivcacgg FOR LOVE.
After a Year Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Greer \
Have Been Reunited.
The New York papers tell a queer
were married a second time. Their
first marriage occurred thirteen years
ago. '
They lived together happily at 92
Cannon street until 1895, when Green
became sick. His ailment was pro-
nounced incurable, and as it rendered
him unable to work he told Esther
they had better be divorced in order
that she might marry a man who
would be better able to support her.
Esther agreed to this, and they were
accordingly divorced by a rabbi on
July 1, 1895, Esther had not long to
wait for an admirer. She was still
verychhndsome, and within less than a
year after her divorce she became Mrs.
Raphael Eisenberger. .
Green had always loved Esther. He
had willingly sacrificed his own feel-
ings in order to make her happy. And
as long as she remained single he was
contented, But when she became 'the
wife of Eisenberger jealousy began to
distract Green and he became a prey
to the keenest remorse for having been
the cause of his own undoing.
He begged Esther to return to him
and be his wife once more. But Esther
is a pious woman, and, although she
still loved Joseph, she told him that
her duty to her present husband came
first and that she could not think of
abandoning him. ,
Green thereupon took legal advice,
and was told that Esther had never
that she was therefore guilty of big-
amy in marrying another.
In desperation Green denounced
Esther and her new husband, and
Esther was arrested for bigamy and
locked up in the Tombs,
Judge Cowing said he had no doubt
that the woman had been an innocent
victim of her own convictions, and
that he would therefore not impose
any penalty upon her. ‘
Joseph easily made Esther under<
stand that it had'been love for her that
had prompted him to become her ac-
cuser.
She forgave him. and wept for joy
when informed that her Joseph was
her own again and that she could ‘go
home with him.
THE SPIRIT THAI WINS.
The Same Characteristic is Posseued by
Most Successful Men.
Patient industry always wins a
measure of success, but nearly always
takes the best part of a man’s life to
reach the goal to which he aspires.
Enterprise, ability and a trained judg-
ment of human nature puts a man to
the front in rapid strides. These are
the qualities that make the wealthy
and influential citizen out of the poor
boy. The people call it luck.
We see a young man whose qualities
and prospects would be called-ordi-
nary, just starting ln life. He is po-
culiar in being of a reserved, modest
and seemingly diffident character;does
not communicate his motives and as-
pirations to associates; rather inclined
to ignore sport and merriment, but
withal harmless and unobtrusive. He
engages in some line of business that
not one person in fifty would think of
doing, and presently makes some show
of accumulating, It is soon found
that he has interests in various in-
vestments, notes, stocks, bonds,houses
and lands. People open their eyes in
amazement, and wonder—and call it
luck. They know little of his methods
or maneuvers,for they view him super-
ficially as a magician, the touch of
whose hand turns everything to
money. They see not the channel of
deeper thought that courses through
his mind. The extent of his knowl-
edge, far-reaching and intuitive, is not
even a matter of conjecture, To neigh-
bo‘r‘s and friends he is an enigma, his
life comes and goes in epochs. Five
years pass andhe is unusually pros-
perous; ten years and he is well-to-do;
fifteen years and he is wealthy;
twenty years and he is rich, the pride
of his birthplace, the joy of his family,
and the real but fabled prince of many
a fairy story that is told of his life
work. The reality is not known, but
fabulous tales are on every tongue and ’
he is the hero, who alone can see the
secret of his success. He leads a life
of ease, comfort and luxury, wtih
earth’s best fruits at his command.
Two words express it all—study and
reserve. _ These elements combined
with ordinary reasoning faculties, per-
severance and zeal, "will'make the life
of any man an eminent success,
The Eye as a'Test of Strength.
It is said that the health of the
brunette type of eye is, as a rule, su-
perior to that of a blonde type. Black
eyes usually indicate good powers of
physical endurance. Dark blue eyes
are most common in persons of dell--
cate, refined or efieminate nature, and
generally show weak health. Light"
blue, and, much more, grayeycs, are
most common in the hardy and active.
With regard to diseases of the eye,
brown or dark colored are weaker or
more susceptible of injury, from vari-
ous causes, than gray or blue'eyes.
Light blue eyes are generally the most
powerful, and next to those are gray.
The lighter the pupil the greater and
longer continued is the degree of ten-
sion the eye can sustain, The majority ‘ -
of first-class shots are men whose eyes
are either blue or gray in color.
