11’s JUST AS eon MADE IT.

Though pockets grow lighter.
Sing tunes that-are‘brighter—
Might as well sing as be sighing;
There’s no use to double
The measure or trouble,
For time beats the best bird at- flying!

The w orld and all 1n it
Wasn’t mad: in a minute;
Its flowers are blooming and dying;
‘ No use to upbraid it,
It’s just as God make it,
And time beats the best bird at flying!

UN MASKED.

The room was hardly a room. To
'speak strictly, it was a large alcove
furnished to fit the taste and require-
ments of the most exacting of dancers
bent on sitting out. It' opened away
from the drawing room through a
species of Norman archway, ' from
either side of which ran a drapery of
two curtains, rich, yet cool in color.

Mrs. Holroyd was looking through
the half drawn curtains into the draw-
ing room beyond. It so happened that

from her seat on the sofa the most dis-‘

tinctly visible piece of furniture was
an admirable whatnot of Sheraton. In
company with her husband she had

, picked it up as a bargain during the

early and/enthusiastic days of their
married , life. She fell ,to thinking
about her husband with an affectation
of courtesy and in a light vein of com-
fortable sarcasm. .

A man crossed the room beyond, un-
announced. He came forward with an

' easy assurance, and drew the hanging

curtains carefully together as: he
passed through the archway.
“Good afternoon, Kittie!” --he said.
She did not answer his greeting read-
ily; his hand went to his mustache.
“Good afternoon,” she said soon.
“It’s a fortnight—quite, since I saw
you last.”

The man’s face brightened. If that.

was all the trouble, he would rather
have it so, or even more so .

His name was Percy Rundell, and
his profession was to spend his in.
come to thehbest advantage while yet
living within it, a profession sadly lit-
tle practiced and sadly less to profit.
He was a cautious man with passion-
ate moments and a badly developed
force of character.

He sat beside her on the sofa.

“But, Kittie, you knew that I was
absolutely unable to come to see you,"
he went on.

“But you did net stay at Thurston
all the time,” she objected. “You were
in London last week. Besides, you
told me you would be. ”

He hesitated. His relations with her
had gone very far.

“You are not yet
dear!” he said.

“That was very
Percy!” - ,

“I cannot help it.”

He began playing with her sleeve.
After a while, he said:

“Kittie, we are on the giddy verge
and brink of things.”

“What do you mean '1”

“Nothing but what I say. With the
quality of prudence that bids a drunk-
en man sit in the gutter, because he
cannot walk straight on the pavement,
we put up a flimsy handrail along the
edge of our clifi, because we knew‘ it
was steep, and then set to dancing on
the bit of green grass that grew there.
The handrail fell down awhile ago and
the grass has grown brown and slip-
Defy 45

“Again what do you mean?” she
asked, petulantly. Her eye-s sought
his with a strange look; he would not

brutal of you,

meet fliem,but preferred to stare down _

at the carpet.

Suddenly he turned to her, and said:

“I mean that I love you, Kittie!”

He' clenched his hands one over the
other, and knotted the fingers painful-
ly together to keep himself still. The
suggestion of weakness in his face
was accentuated; it was a peculiar
impression of a shadow somewhere
which continually cheated the eye in
substance and locality.

“Percy!” The avowal was too suf-
ficiently prefaced to find her unpre-
pared; but, after all, he had only just

entered the room. “Percy!” she re-
peated. _ . '
“Yes! Percy to you and Kittie to

me!” criedhoarsely. .“I love you, and
you—you love me!” He struggled a lit-
tle with the last word.

She said nothing, but held back from
him and stretched out her hand with a
mute gesture of self protection. So it
was that her mood changed and her
face slowly took an expression of scorn
which seemed in some queer fashion

,to add to the space of forehead be-

tween her eyes.

“You cad, Percy—oh, you cad!”

.side himself. ' ' .- s . 1 ..
‘ “Yes, I know it! I’m a cad, a black-

it, and because I say so, I am a cad,
Heaven help. me, I had rather be ten
thousand cads and your love’s love and
your lover than all the gentlemen on

His voice had risen to a tremulous

pitch, and now he stood there wrought
to silence, with his arms outstretched
toward 11e 2;: ‘

She rose with some dignity from the
sofa and stood facing him. “Percy,
you were right in What you said about
:he cliff. ' But you have fallen, I have
got, and I will not throw myself down
after you.”

lIe shifted uneasily upon his feet,

‘ but made no efiort to reply His pas-

sion was gaining upon him, though he

. save her no reason to suspect this, for

his head hung low in the uncertain
light, and his hands were clasped be-
hind his back.

She turned and moved toward’the'

button of. the electric bell. _

“I think you had better go now
Percy,” she said, “I cannot quite trust
you to stay any longer-to-day.”

“Kittie!” he burst out, “don’t send
me away like this without a word.”

She felt herself growing distressed.
Would it really come to turning him
out? She believed she loved him. To.
day" he had hurt her pride by his
maladroit avowal, and she welcomed
the power of self-control the affront
had lent her. '

“I really wish' you to go, Percy, You
must yourself know that it is better
you should, much better.” She spoke
more gently.

Something in the appearance of the
man suddenly frightened her, and she
made a rapid plunge at the bell but-
ton, but missed it and half fell. In a
moment his arms were round her, and
she lay helpless under his kisses.

“Let me go!” she gasped.-

, Rundell did let her go, for the cur-
tain before him parted and her hus-
band came through;

Holroyd was a physically Small man,
with a head so finely modelled that at
timesh‘e showed a considerable pres-
ence and became even remarkable. At
such moments his deficiencies of phy-
sique, oddly enOugh, rather added to
than detxacted from the force of his
personality. '

He walked at leisure across to them.
“I have arrived,” he began, with a con-
ceit of courtesy, “I have arrived at In
apparently inopportune moment. Is it
not so?”

The question was unanswerable.

“.I will not conceal from'yOu that I
have, by the simple process of stand-
ing behind the curtain there,overheard
most of what has been said; I have 111-
so by the equally. easy ‘method of
parting the curtains slightly, seen
nearly everything that has occurred. I
came a trifle late, and the scene has al-
ready begun, or, doubtless, I should
have witnessed all of it. I apprehend-
ed that I did not miss any material
portion. Have you anything to say for
yourselves?”

He spoke like a schoolmaster lectur-
ing a couple of naughty children, and
they looked the part. It was the
height of pathos. Perhaps he realized
this for he went on:

“I-'do not wish to make you appear
in any way ridiculous. I recognize
your mutual positions, which from a
worldly point of view, were not diffi-
cult to understand. I would not will-
ingly step in between your happiness,
Kittie, or indeed, of yours,, Rundell,
if it be knit with hers.” He faltered
somewhat from his measured, sarcas-
tic tones. “I have a request to make.
If you can comply with it I shall
be content to advance no argument,
no protest.”

He took his wife’s hand and pressed .

it into Rundell’s, and still like two
children they obeyed him in silence.

His voice grew hard- again. “Percy
Rundell, will you swear by the grave
of your mother, and your honor, as her
son, that you love my wife as you
would love a woman of the highest
integrity, that you love- her as a faith-
ful man might love a faithful woman,
that you love her so and would forever
look upon her as an honorable woman?
Will you swear this with her hand in
yours and before me here?”

And Percy Rundell, gentleman, was
speedily gone, cursing Richard H01-
royd,husband, as he went.

Holroyd turned to his wife. “When
you called him a cad, Kittie,” he said,
“you were within measurable distance
of the truth.”—.-Pick-l\le—Up.

. Whales or: a Cable. '

Submarine cables are usually imbed-
fled in the slimy bottom of the ocean.
but at certain points they hang like
wirebridges" over deep submarine val-
leys, so that whales and other inhabi-
tants of ,the deep may become danger-
ous to the cable. Once in a while it is
the cable that becomes dangerous to
the whales, as was recently shown in
an accident to the Western Brazilian
cable. There was some trouble with
the wire and after—many futile efforts
the seat of the trouble was discovered

seventy-six miles north of Santa

Catharina. The repair ship Viking
was sent to repair the damage, and be4
gan to take up the cable near where
the seat of the trouble had been 10-
rated. After the cable proper had
been grappled and was taken up on
the large drums provided for the pur-
pose, it was found that it floated very
much easier and was more buoyant
than was ordinarily the case, The rea-
son was discovered when in a loop of
the cable the carcass of a whale more
than sixty feet in length came up. It
appears that the whale had become
caught under the cable, and not being
able to lift it nor to go forward or back,
It suffocated. By its last 'spasms' or

attempts to free itself, the whale had

damaged the cable so that the insula-
tion was rubbed all and the wire be-
came useless.

WAYAMID LOFTYLPEAKSA _

It Climbs 7,500 Feet Among the ‘M'ogtime-
turesque Mountains of Switzerland,

But It Doesn’t Get Much Custom Al-

though Its Fares are Cheap.

Brienz, at the upper end of thelske
of that name, is one of the quaintes‘t
and prettiest villages in all Switzerland.
From this point, Interlaken, on a level
with the lake, starts the Rothhorn
Mountain Railway, which, the pro-
prietor claims, is the highest mountain
railway in the world.

It 13 a curious thing that if a man in-
vests his money in an enterprise juSt a
little out of the beaten line of travel he
runs a great chance of losing it. This
is what has happened to the projectors
of the Rothhorn Railway. People stop
at Lucerne, and, therefore, the Rigi
and Mount Pilatus cog-wheel paths are
paying investments. They stop, at In-
terlaken andLLauterbrunnen, and so the
Scheinige Platte and the Murrenand
the Wengern Alp railways all pay large
dividends, but Brienz, situated between
Lucerne and Interlaken. is not a stop-
ping point for the tourist, and so the
Rothhorn Railway, starting at Brienz,
bankrupted its first promoters. The
present proprietor of the road has re.
duced fares. It costs now only $2 for
the round trip—up and down this rail-
The hotel at the top is marvel-
Oue can get a room there
for ‘70 cents, including service and
everything else. Breakfast costs 30
cents and dinner 70 cents—with wine.

The trip is magnificent. First the
ancient town of Brienz, with its quaint
wooden houses, sinks gradually down'
then we get a view of the whole Lake
of Brienz, and by and by we look over
the tops of the high mountains that
surround it, and the still higher peak:-
of the Bernese Oberland begin to ap-
pear. Part way up there is a. magnifi-
cent waterfall, tumbling down a depth
of 656 feet ;. but perhaps the most re-
markable sight is where a person gets a
glimpse of a dizzy precipice through
the openings Of the tunnel. The geo
logical formation 1s very st11k1n0‘ The
mountains appear to be built of obricks.
Every stone seems to have been squared
by a mason.

The scene from the top is most im-

Brienz, on the north terminate in a
range as sharp as a knife, falling away
on each side in tremendous precipices.
The region has been at one times most
dangerous part of the country to live

Biltniore as aRefuge.

Abree:y writer for the New York
Journal has this to say of GeOrge W.
Vanderbilt’s famous palace in North
Carolina:

In alluding to Biltmore being a place
of refuge to discontented scions, I was
rather thinking of young Shepard, who
has been laboring under a case of stern
paren't for some time, and who, after a
straightly guarded visit abroad, sought
refuge in Cambridge with his brother
in-law, John Hennen Morris, who e11-
joys the distinction of being the only
undergraduate of Harvard who is mar-
ried, and keeps an establishment there.
Mr. Shepardtook up certain studies at
Harvard, but unfortunately he devel-
oped an eye trouble and spent many
months recuperating under the broad
and hospitable roof of stately Bilt-
more.

I think, apropos of Mr. Shepard, that
it was he who remarked aneut the
sporting procliviiies of the Morris fam-
ily, when the tempest in a teapot ove1

his sister's marriage to Mr. Morris was”

brewing:

“If piety produces the beasts that
draw the Fifth avenue stages, and the
other thing results in the Morris string
of thoroughbreds, give me the other
thing.”

HE CAUGHT JEFFbAl/‘léiw '

ture in Hoops.

William P. Stedman, the man who
actually captured J efierson Davis when
the President of the late Confederacy
was trying to escape, is now a messen-
gar in the Agricultural Department,
where he was appointed by Seeretary
Morton two or three years ago. Mr.
Stedman is a resident of Owosso, Mich”
and has been engaged in farming since
the war.

He is an unpretentious man, but talks
and writes well, and hisgrecollection of
the historical events in which he was
the second actor of importance is very
clear.

The story he tells is that while at
Abbeville, Ga, on May 9, 1865, Col.
Pritchard of the Fourth Michigan Cav-
alry met Col. Harnden of the First
Wisconsin, who informed them that
Jefierson Davis and some other refu-
gees from Richmond had crossed the
river the night. before; that he had
been following them for two days and
claimed the right ofway. Col. Pritch-
srd acceded, and odor-ed to lend a part
of his regiment, which Col. Harnden
declined, and proceeded south on the
trail of Mr. Davis.

Pritchard afterward learned that
there was another _ road in the same
directidn, and taking 120 of his best
mounted men, started to follow it.
That night they accidentally ran upon
the camp of .Mr. Davis’s rarty, which
they surrounded and wait-ed for day-
light. '

"AsIsat by in the morning,” said
Mr. Stedman, “some of. our men went to
the tent door, but were met by a woman
who asked them to keep out. as they.-
were undressed women waldo. £230.,

arm.

“The tall person was stooping over as
if to appear 'shorter. I concluded i:
must. be Davis in disguise, and as the
guards did not halt them, Irode around.
recognized Davis and told him his dis
guise would not succeed.

“A man of the name of Andrew Bee.
a Swede, who was cook for Col. Pritch-
ard, .‘came up on the run, grabbed both
hands into the front of the dress that
Davis had on, jerked it open and said
to him: ‘Come out of this, you old
devil 1’

“Davis, at this attack, straightened
up and showed anger. At the same
time he put his hand to his back under
his dress. I thought he was after a re-
volver, and covered him with my car-
bine. But Mrs. Davis threw herself in
front of the gun and cried out that her
husband was not armed. Davis then
took ofl his dress and shawl, threw
them on the ground, and started back
to his tent. The clothing is now in the
War Department.

“When Col. Pritchard came up short-
ly after, Davis was sitting on a log,
across the road from his tent, calm and
cool. Col. Pritchard asked him what
his name was. He answered.

“ ‘You may call me what name you
please.’

“Col. Pritchard placed the prisoner
in my charge, and as we sat by the fire
a. soldier by the name of Lynch came
up leading a fine bay horse and said:

“Jeffie. here is your horse, you won’t
need him any more , won’t you give him
to mel’

“Davis did not answer; but Col.
Lubbock, one of his attendants; became
very angry, and declared that he would
not see his President insulted. Lynch
responded with an oath:

“ ‘What is be President of?’

“Lynch and one of his officers after
wards quarrelled about this horse, and
on Saturday morning shot him. Lynch
isthe same man who got Mrs. Davis’s
valise containing her valuables, said to
amount to several thousand dollars.
He hid it near Macon, and went there
and got it after he was discharged from
the army.

in my hearing except by Andrew Bee,
when he torso open the waterproof on
Mr. Davis. ”—Chicago Record.

"“YIGREA'I 18 THE BANANA

All the People of the Earth Could Live-
on it Alone.

The banana, which alone of fruit:
possesses all the essentials to the su=-
tenance of human life, is worth more
than all the others, and is thus. the most
valuable fruit in the world. Even with
us it fairly holds its Own when com-
pared with any other fruit, while in.

, some ecuntries—Africa, for instance-

its position is as important as that of
wheat in this country or rice in China.
Over the larger part of the Dark Con-
tinent it is the staple article of native
food, and every Afripan village has its
banana fields, as we have fields of pota
toes or corn. .

Although some varieties of the ba-
nana attain the size of small trees, it is
an herbaceous plant, and the kindmost
generally cultivated for their fruit are
the dwarfs, which grow to a height of
but four or five feet. The smallest of
these produce the delicate fig bananas,
unknown to Northern markets, but 111-
most the only ones eaten as fruit' 1n
countries where the banana is grown.
While the little fig banana is always
classed as a fruit, plantains, which'are
the largest of the family, are invariably
grlied or baked and regarded as vegeta

es

A number of delicious desserts may
be prepared by Cutting‘ripe bananas in-
to thin slices and serving with custard.
with lime' juice and sugar, with lemon
juice and desiccated cocoanut or in
other ways that will suggest themselves.
Bananas can be dried as easily as peach-
es or apples. In this condition they
will keep for a long time, and may be
eaten by themselves or used in the mak-
ing ofpies, cakes or puddings. '

Bananas require a damp, rich soil;
but that being given, they repay the
labor of planting and such slight culti-
vation as is required to keep them free
from other growths, with a yield so
great as to be out of all proportions to
the work expended upon them.

After a while, too, the plants aid in
their own cultivation by so covering
the ground about them . with their own
refuse leaves as effectually to prevent
any other growth in their immediate
vicinity.

So generous is the fruitage of this ex-
traordinary plant that its food product
was estimated by Baron Von Humboldt
to be one hundred and thirty-three
times greater than that of wheat, and
forty- four times more than that of po-
tatoes. In other words, if a. certain
area of ground would produce thirty-
three pounds of wheat or ninety- nine of
potatoes, an equal area of banana land
would yield four thousand pounds of
fruit, containing all the life sustaining
properties of both wheat and potatoes.
Von Humboldt also asserted that the
arable lands of Central America alone

can produce enough of the fruit to feed

the world.

Few bananas are raised within the
limits of the United States, only the ex-
treme southern portions of Florida. and
California being available for their cul-
tivation; but with the ever increasing
facilities for their importation they are
becoming so plentiful that new and
hitherto undreamed of uses are rapid. _;
being found for them.

A banana meal which will keep as
long as wheat flour, and make an in-
finitely more nutritious bread, is prom-
ised for the immediate, future. Beer
and sausages made from the fruit have
successfully passed the experimental
stages. Banana skins contain a tough
fibre from which the finest of cloth can
be woven.
skins during the process of extracting
their fibre can be used either as an in
delible ink or fermented into good vine'

gar Could anything be more contrary t1
our preconceived notions than bananas:
as a food for babes? Yet only last sum
mer I was introduced to a perfectly,
well, sturdy and rosy checked little
chap a. year old who, so his parents as
sure me, had never tasted milk, and
had, during the first six months of his
life, been fed wholly on ripe bananas. -

TWO CANADIAN STAPMS FOR $1, 320.
High Prices Paid for Bin-e Postage Stamp:
by Collectors.

Two little pieces .of paper, which.

Government, were valued at 12 cents

each, were sold at auction in Boston re-
cently for $1 320.

All Canadian stamps of the issue of
1851 are rare, but these two 12-cen1’
stamps are believed to be the only un-
used ones of the kind printed on laid
paper. The stamps were bought by
Mr. Needham, of Hamilton, Ont., who
sold these stamps to the company hold
ing the auction and got 81, 500 for them.
Mr. Needham bought a number of other
