Love CAME TO ME.

Love came to me when I was young;
He brought me songs, he brought me flowers,
Love wooed me lightly, trees among. . .
And da'llied under scented bowers:

For he was riotous as Spring
And careless of the hours—
When I was young. 4
Love lingered near when I grew‘old; _
He brought me light from stars above; .
And consolation manifold .‘ ‘
He fluted'to me like a dove; ‘ r41? .
And Love leaned out of Paradise “ 1
And gently kissed my faded eyes l~.~_.k \ :
And whispered, "God is love"— '

A BRILLIANT, MATCH.

It was a moist, unpleasant day. The
rain had begun immediately after break-
fast, and now at ’11 o’clock it looked
like raining till the crack of doom. I
had wandered up and down seeking,
congenial company and finding none,
and had finally cast anchor in the bil—'
liard room, where I practiced the spot
stroke.

1 had made a break of nine, and was
beginning to feel more cheerful, when
suddenly the door opened and Miss An-
struther appeared.

“Oh,” she said, as she shut the door
and stood with her hands behind her on
the handle, “I thought it was Mr.
Evans.” ,

“It is a better—and a poorer—man,”
said I; resting my one on the floor. “Do
you want to find Mr. Evans?”

“Yes—no! it doesn’t matter,” said
Miss Anstruther.

“Perhaps you can say it ,to me as
well?” I suggested.

She thought a moment or two and
then shook her head.

“No; I couldn’t say it to you”.

It may have been my fancy; but I
thought that she blushed.

“Anyway,” I said cheerfully, “if it
doesn’t matter you can come and pie

"What should ”a girl do when her
mother wants her to——you know—and
the man is—”

“Rich,” I suggested.

“Yes and— like that.” .Miss Ans-
truther nodded toward the window. .

“It's a difficult question’,” I said. “3
very difficult quesoion. As you have
asked me to advise you, well. do you
love him?” .

“You may put that aside.” said she
with a sweep of her hand.

“That simplifies matters,” I said.
Then there comes the question of filial
duty. You see, a parent judges in these
matters with less, I mean with a greater
freedom from personal'feeling.”

is a very personal matter, isn’t it? Be-
sides, I am sure mamma would never
want me to marry anyone whom she
thought I didn’t really, I didn’t, or,
mean, if I——-”

p I shook my head gravely.

“You must really be frank with me.
if I am to advise you profitably,” I
said. ‘

. “If I really cared for some one else?”
said Miss Anstruther, very softly.

“Ah! there’s some one else?”

Miss Anstruther nodded.

“Who doesn’t care for you?” .

“Oh, yes he does, said she quickly,
raising her eyes for a moment to mine.
and then dropping them again.

I was just addressing my mind to this
fresh complication, (when Miss Ans-
truther jumped up.) *

“Oh, but We are not playing,” she
said. “It’s my turn, isn’t it?”

“It is,” I said, with a sigh; for I
should have preferred to follow out the
subject. “You have an easy losing haz-
ard off the red into the tOp pocket.”

“A hazard?” said Miss Anstruther,
rather vaguely.

“It is a hazard,” I explained, “when
you go for the pocket.”

“How funny!” said Miss Anstruther,
stopping in mid stroke. “It’s like—”

 

billiards with me. I’m lonely.” -

“But I play very badly,” she said.
doubtfully. “I don‘t think I ever
played seriously.”

“Well. this won’t be serious,” I said,
selecting alight one and chalking the
tip. “Now, all you have to do is to
make your ball hit the red and go into
a pocket, or put the red into a pocket—
or both.”

“Oh, dear,” said Miss Anstruther,
“what a lot to think about! There!
What does that count?”

“One to me,” I said, and missed an
easy hazard.

“Why were you so funny last night?"
said she.

“I am never funny,” I said; “serious,
humorous, stupid— perhaps—but not
funny.”

She aimed wildly.. Her ball went
twice round the table and hit nothing.
1/ “How provoking!” she said.

Then she lifted her chin and rested it
on the tip of her cue.

“You know what I mean,” she said;
“why did you leave me alone all the
evening with Mr. Evans?”

“Well,” I said, “I was talking—let
me see—to Annie Bates.”

“You found her amusing?”

"Not amusing; better; pretty.”

“Oh, you couldn’t call her pretty.
Nice, but——-"

“Decidedly pretty, in her way. Now,
you are plain, aren’t you?” I said, see-
ing a likely cannon. :'

"I beg your pardon,” she said, very
coldly. '

“I mean—I’m playing with spot. By
Jove!” I exclaimed, asI turned away in
disgust . after missing the cannon.
“There he is I”

"Who?" she asked. .

“Mr. Evans, walking up and down in
,the garden, smoking a cigar in the rain.
Shall I whistle him in?”

“Oh, no,” said she.

“Why not?” I asked, facing round to-
ward her. “I thought you- wanted to
see him?" _ -

“Oh, there’s no hurry—no immediate
hurry,” said she. “He doesn’t leave till
this afternoon.”

“I thought it might be something im-
portant.” I said.

It is important.” said Miss Anstruth-
er. “Oh you are horrid,” she continued,
stamping her foot. “You know quite

4)

well what—. I shouldn’t tell you
should I?”

“But you haven’t told me,”I said, con-
solingly.

“Oh, but you can "guess,” 'said Miss
Anstruther, shaking her head. “You
must have noticed—s—something. And
I’ve no right to say anything about it.”

I paused judiciously.

“It seems,” I said, after an apprOpri-
ate interval, “quite a suitable arrange-
ment. Mr. Evans is very wealthy.”

“Yes,” said she, reflectively, “he has
money. But then, so have I.”

“That is what makes it so suitable,”
I said.

“But,” said Miss Anstruther, lifting
her eyebrows pathetically, he’s —well-”

“That is true,” I said. “But we all
have our faults. And poverty’s the
worst of them.”

“I don’t think so,” said Miss Ans-
truther, quickly.

“Mrs. Anstruther thinks so,” I re.
plied.

"Yes, of course, you could see mam-
ma wanted—” she tapped the floor
with her foot.

I turned to the window and watched
Mr. Evans walking up and down in the
rain. Miss Anstruther sat down upon
one of the cushioned benches which ran
round the billiard room.

“It happened last night,” she: said
suddenly, “when you were—”

“What happened?” I asked.

“Oh, you know.”

“Your engagement?”

“I am not engaged.”

“Not engaged? Then what are we
talking about?” '

“You are stupid. Don’t you under-
stand. .That’s what Ihave to decide——
totell Mr. Evans this morning—before
he goes away. Oh! I oughtn’t to tell
you all this. But you made me, you
know. And I think you might help
me."

“Yes,” I said, “there are many ana-
logies between billiards and the tender
passion. But, excuse me, you won’t do
it that way; and if you hold your cue
like that, you’ll dig a hole in the
cloth.”

“I went around the table to where

"she was standing.

“Keep quite still and I’ll show you,”
I said. I placed her hand in the right
position at the butt end of the cue, and,
holding it there, showed her how to
make aproper bridge with the left hand
and slide the cue smoothly and horizon-
tally over it.

“N ow,” I said, still having a guidIg
hand on the cue, “if you aim so, you’ll
get the pocket—unless the balls kiss.”

Naturally I was compelled to stand

this object lesson, so close that the curl
that nestled round her left ear tickled
my lips as my breath stirred it.

She ma 9 her stroke. It was a ridic-
ulous stro e. ‘

“Were you really going for the poo-
ket?” I asked.

“I think,” she said, turning and fac-
ing me, “the kiss spoiled it.”

tated over her failure. Thinking bet-
ter to change the subject from billiards,
I said:

“Tell me, what are you going to say
to Mr. Evans?”
‘ We were, as I have said, of necessity
very close together, and Miss Anstruth-
er dropped her eyes.

“that I don’t care for him (not in that
way) and—---” ,

“And that’s what you meant when
you said just now that, that, you could
not say it to up?”

Mrs. Anstruther’s attention was fixed
upon the toe of her right shoe which
she was tapping with the butt end of
her one. Mine was concentrated on her
drooped eyelids. Consequently neither
of us heard the door open. .

“Hello!- Playing?” said Evans, walk
ing round toward the marking board.
“What’s the game?”

“The game,” I said, looking up, “is,
let me see, two and love; isn’t it, Miss
Anstruther?”

Miss Anstruther looked quickly at
Evans, and then at me.

“Yes,” she said.

“M’m, lost for ever,” said Evans, go-
ing out and slamming the door.

“I hope so,” I said, as I turned to Miss
Anstruther.--»B1ack and White.

By Balloon to the North Polo.

The search for the Pole is one of the
problems which have excited most en-
thusiasm among explorers. The mar-
tyrology of those who have paid with
their lives for their devotion to science
is a long one. America, England and
France may feel proud at counting
their sons in this list. .

For some years past Sweden, whic
counted few explorers of the seas of ice
among its scientific men, in spite of its
geographical position and special'train-
ing fora cold climate, has been boldly
marching in the footsteps of its prede
cessors.

It is a Swede, Andre, who is the au-
thor of the plan of exploring the Pole
by means of a balloon. As is well
known, a belt of ice encircles the Pole,
where it is believed an open sea will be
found. It is this belt, which it has
been hitherto impossible to cross in a
vessel, that the bold Swede proposes to
cross through the air. '

The eXpedition will be composed of
three persons, Andre, the chief, Ek-
holm, a scientist, and M. Strindberg.
The last is the nephew of the celebrated
novelist, dramatic author, and illus-
trious mis’ogynist, some of whose plays,
esteemed by literary men, have hen
given this season at the Theatre jLibre.

WONDERFUL THINGS ABOUT THE
SECOND CITY OF THE WORLD.

Greater New York. Its Railroads
Would Stretch Beyond Chicago. Its
Three Millions of ropuiation.

With a pride that is wholly devoid of

of the American metropolis may now
set out upon a journey of exploration in
search of peculiar and interestihg feat-
ures of the new domain of the city of
New York.

Greater New York. now is:

The second city in area,

The second city in population.

The city with the greatest length of
railroads.

ferries. ..

The city with the greatest extent of
wharfage for commerce.

The city with the greatest warehouse
capacity. . *

The greatest manufacturing city.

The city with the greatest number of
ofiice buildings and offices.

The city with the greatest area of
public parks. ' .

The city with the greatest area of
primitive forests. '

If all the surface and elevated roads
within the limits of the Greater New
York were stretched out in a‘single line
they would reach a long Way beyond
Chicago, the actual length of track, as
taken from Poor’s Manual, being no less
than 1,100.58 miles. Of elevated roads
alone the mileage is sufficient to run a.
line beyond Albany, and almost to the
foothills of the Adirondacks. for the
distance to Albany is but 143 miles,
while the length of the elevated tracks
is 155.09 miles. Nor is the length of
the East River Bridge tracks included
in this estimate.

In geographical extent the Greater
New York from Mount St. Vincent to
Tottenville is not far from thirtyfive
miles long as the crow flies. Its width
from the North River at West Four-
teenth street to the inlet between Far
Rockaway beach and Shelter Island is a
trifle over nineteen miles. Its area is
about 360 square miles. When com-
pared with other great cities it is found
to be the second in size. Londonhas
688, Paris, 297, Berlin, 242, Chicago, 189
and Philadelphia 129 square miles.

The resident population of the city by
census reports is 2,785,422 souls, but
that is by no means a fair statement of
the population from a commercial point
of view, for the reason that thousands
of people who have their business in-
terestsin New York city live in New
Jersey or beyond the city limits, while
they come to New York every week
day to attend to the affairs of life. No
accurate estimate of the number of
these people can be made.

SENATOR MORRILL AT 86.

The Father of the Protective Tariff of
' Thirty YearsAgo.

When Senator Morrill, of Vermont,
celebrated his eighty-sixth birthday, the
chaplain of the Senate referred to him
as “hale in body, clear, sound and viga
orous in intellect, esteemed by his ro-
ther Senators, by his State, and by the
whole country, and enjoying the fruits
of long and honorable services in both
houses of Congress.”

 

SENATOR MORRILL.
Senator Morrill entered Congress

forty years ago. He was a member of
the House for six terms and took his
seat in the Senate in 1867. He was the
author of the Morrill Tariff law of the
war period—the McKinley of the tarifi
thirty years ago.

A True Story.

Here i ,a true romance of the woolly
West and giddy Tenderloin: ’

An actor, well known, traveled
through Idaho with his wife a few sea-
sons ago. Since that time he has been
divorced. While playing in a game of
poker in Butte City he quit the game
holding a resident of the city $30 in
debt."

On Tuesday he met the Westerner on

-Broadway.

“Hello, Edwards,” said the Butte
City man, “you never expected to hear
about that thirty, did you?”

“Certainly I did,” replied Ed wards,
“or I wouldn’t have played with you.”

"Well, did you get it all right?”

“Get what?”

“The 830?”

“I’ve never received a cent.”

“Why, I met your wife yesterday an
gave it to her.” '

“Oh.”-—Evening World.

Solid Cookery.

“I made these‘biscuit's myself, Billi-
ger,” said Mrs. McSwat, with honest
pride. ' '

“They look very nice, Lobelia,” re-
plied MI. McSwat, picking one of them
up and making an effort to split it.
"And they are still hot. How long ago
did you‘—ah——cast them?”—Chicago Tri-
bune. - »

The Saddle ~
on.

This is an illustration
of the old style saddle.
",3 If you will observe it
‘ carefullyyou will note
that it fits like a glove
(and a saddle should
not). It presses the sen~
sitive parts, causes sorc-
ness, stiffness and chaf‘
ing, and has made cycl-
ing to a certain extent
injurious, because few
could enjoy a long ride
without fear of injury.
All this is now changed. Here is repre-
sented the perfect saddle—the Christy
