But I think that we are ease if we stand like this." The opened window looked out upon a eloping lawn, well trimmed and pleasant* with fuzzy rose bushes and a star shaped bed of sweet william. It was bounded by a low woolen fence, whioh eoreened it off front a broad modern, new - metaled road. At the other side of thia road were three large detaohed, deep - bodied villas, with peaky eaves and email wooden balconies, each standing ha its own little square of grass and flowers. All three were equally new, but numbers one and two were ourtained and sedate, with a human, sociable look to them ; while number three, with yawning door and unkempt garden, had apparently only just received it furniture and made itself ready for its occupants. A four -wheeler had driven up to the gate, and it was at this that the old ladies, peering out bird- like from behind their curtains, direoted an eager and questioning gaze.

There is only one English Sovereign who hes sat twice in the 'coronation chair at Westminster Abbey, and that is her present Majesty Queen Viotoria, who eat in it for the first time at her oor ()flatten on the 28th of Ione, 1838. The second occasion of her doing so was when .11er Majesty attended at the Thanksgiving Servioe in the Abbey for her Jubilee, on the 21st of June, 1987, when she sat in the °hair during the sere vice, surrounded by her children and grand- children. Special prayers were offered for her Majesty, and, efter the benediotion and when the preaoribed ceremonial was finish- ed, the Queen enthroned. all the members of her family present. The chair, which was firat used at the coronation of Edward I. on the 19th of .August, 1274, is similar in ahape to the high-backed chairs fashionable in England about a century and a half ago; its height is six feet seven inches, its depth twenty-five inches and the breadth of the aeat, measured inshe, twenty-eight inches. At the height of nine Welles from the ground is a ledge which supports the Stone of Destiny, which Edward. I brought from Scone Palace. LEOPARD ON A RAMPAGE.

" What do you call that, Bertha ? It looks to me like four batter puddings." "Those are what young men box each other with," said Bertha, with a consoione air of superior worldly knowledge. " And those ?" Two great bottle shaped pieces of yellow shining wood had been heaped upon the cabman. "Oh, I don't know what those are, confessed Bertha. Indian clubs had never before obtruded themselves upon her peaceful and very feminine existence. These mysterious articles were followed, however, by others which were more within their range of comprehension—by a pair of dumbbells, a purple cricket -bag, a set of golf clubs and a tennis racket. Finially,when the cabman, all top-heavy and bristling, had staggered off up the garden patla-there emerged in a very leisurely way from the cab a hig,powerfully built young man,with a • bull pup under one arm and a pink sporting paper in his hand. The paper he crammed into the pocket of his light yellow dust -coat • and extended his hand as if to assist some one else from the vehicle. To the surprise of the two old ladies, however, the only thing whioh his open palm received was a violent slap, and a tali lady bounded unassisted out of the cab. With a regal wave she motioned the young man toward the door, and then with one hand upon her hip, she stood in a careless, lounging at- titude by the gate, kicking her toe against the wall and listlessly awaiting the return of the driver. As she turned slowly round, and the sunshine struck upon her face, the two watehers were eanazed to see that this very active and energetic lady was far from being in her first youth, so far that she had certainly come of age again since she first passed that landmark in life's journey. Her finely chiseled, olean-cut face, with some- thing red -Indian about the firrn mouth and strougly marked oheek bones, showed, even at that distance, traces of the friction of the passing years. And yet she was very handsome. Her features were as firm in repose as those of a Greek bust, and her great dark eves were arched over by two brows so black, so thick, and so delicately curved, that the eye turned away from the harsher details of the face to marvel at their grace and strength. Her figure, too, was straight as a dart a little portly, perhaps but waving into megnificent outlines, which were half acoentuated by the strange costume which she wore. Her hair black but plentifully shot with gray, was brushed plainly back from her high forehead, and was gathered under a small round felt hat, like that of a man, with one sprig of feather in the band as a concession to her sex. A double- breasted jacket of some dark frieze -like material fitted closely to her figure while her straight' blue eitiit, untrimmed and ungathered, was cut so short that the lower curve of her finely turned legs was plainly visible beneath it, terminating in a pair of broad, fiat, low-heeled and square - toed shoes. Such was the lady who lounged at the gate of number three, tinder the curious eyes of her two opposite neighbors. But if her conduct and appearance had already somewhat jarred upon their lim- ited and precise sense of the fitness of things, whet were they to think of the next little act in this tableau vivant? The cabman, red and heavy -yowled had come beak from his labors, and held out his hand for his fare. The lady passed him a coin; there was a moment of mumbling and gesticulating, and suddenly she had Mtn with both hands by the red cravat which girt his neck and was shaking him as a terrier would a rat. Right aoross the pavement she thrust him, and, pushing him up against the wheel, she banged Ms head there several times egainst the side of his own vehiole. "Tan I be of atiy nee to you, aunt ?" asked the large youth, framing himself in the omen doortvays "Yet the slightest," panted the enraged lady. "There, you low blackguard that will teach you to be irtipertinerkt to lady 1" The cabman looked helplessly about him in a bewildered, questioning gaze, as one to whom alone of all nren this unheard-of at extraordinary thing had, happened. Then, tubbing his bead, he mounted slowly on to tho box and drove away with ati uptossed hand appealing to the universe. The lady samothed down het arose, pushed back het hair tinder her little felt het, and 'strode in through tila hall deer, which was closed behind her, away from the winter quarters, A big boarhound went in pursuit, and afterasome diffioulty found the leopard hiding in a golf field. Not being hungry, having just eaten a sheep, the beast was running round a big bowldet to get up an appetite for the golf players, who were eutirely unconscious of the approsoh of any other mealtime than their own. The leopard was tamed once, and at the beginning of the season used to jump over a stick in the street paradea of the cireus. One day she bit a piece out of a olovvn and was sent to Bridgepert to be further tamed by Barney Duke, the professional terror of the animal kingdom. She lived in an old building, which is being torn down to make room for an new elephant house. The workmen, who did not know there was a leopard on the other side of the wall, tore oub enough bricks from the back of her cage to let her escape. She waited until nightfall and then got out. In another part of the leopard house is white -eyed horse, used for ring purposes, and now under treatment for insanity. In the seine building is the boxing boarhound, Irene, which has been left behind to nurse her puppies. She uaed to perform in a den with the lions, tigers and leopards. When Mr. Duke went to feed the white -eyed horse he found her bitten and scratched. He thought at first she had attempted suicide in a fit of insaxaty, but when he missed the leopard he knew that the creature had got oat and had begun to eat his crazy patient. Duke says the leopard probably did not like the taste of the horse, and, dropping it, went to look for something better. According to his statement he has known escaped wild beasts to se.mple A DOZEN ANIMALS before they tonna something they oared to eat. One of the lions got out last spring, and bit small pieces out of a zebra, a camel and a bear, but, finding none of them fit to eat, went and devoured an ostrich. The lion tamer resolved to go leopard hunting. He took a gun and the big boar - hound Irene with him. Her five puppies sniffed. at the horse's blood, wagged their little tails and followed. Duke showed the boarhound the empty cage, and gave her to understand she must take up the scent. Irene put her nose to the ground, and then bounded over the fence in full cry, her five puppies runningssiong in singe file on their first leopard hunt. "And I'm blamed if that leopard didn't walk backward so as to fool me. I suppose she did not think I would run her down by scent," said the trainer, later. On Miles Bethwell'a farm was found a dead sheep. Its jugular vein bad been torn open and most of its blood was gone. Here the dog was for a while confused, but soon took up the trail again. Behind a bounder, waiting impatiently for an appetite, was the leopard. When she saw the dog, she gave a his and ran. The leopard, being closely pursuedran half a mile and then shinned up a trolley pole. When she got to the top she touched a live svire and fell to the ground unoorts- Moue. The boarhound and. her punier' ' sprang upon her, and were beaten off with difficulty by the keeper. Duke tied a string around the leopard's neck, and when she recovered her senses the procession to the town began. The boarhound led, the leo- pard, with her telt between her legs, oame next, and Duke and the five puppies brought up the rear.

At bile present time it is known that five are killed, and, the injured are numbered by Boone, many of them, it is believed, fatally. Great masses of wreckage were carried through the air by the gale, adding to the destruetion. Among thebuildings wrecked was the Dutch Reformed (Morelli, a brick structure reoently erected. Three large beams, picked from the wreck of other buildings by the wind, were borne, and on, against the side of the church, and they went through the walls like °anis= balls.

The oyolone wreaked thirty houses at Wood- haven and a very large schoolhouse there, There were twenty residents of Wood- haven injured by the cyclone, and two deaths.

Emperor and Empress Cure a Man of Writing Scurrilous Verse. A young poet had written a most amirrilous poem, iu whioli he had described and libeled not only the empress, but also the grand dukes and duchesses. The censor of the press went and told. the emperor. "The man had better be sent off to !..4iberia at ones,' he said; "it is not it case for delay." " Oh, no," said the empress, "wait a little, but tell the man I desire to see him at 6 o:olock to -morrow cis:1ring." When the poor man was told this he fel* as if the last hour had come and that the emperor (Alexander II.) must intend him. self to pronounce eternal exile. He went to the palace and was shown through all the grand ataterooms, one after another, without seeing anyone, till at last he arrived at a small, commonplaze room at the end of them all, where was a single table with a lamp upon it, and here he saw the empress, the emperor, and all the grand dukes and duchessee whom he had mention. ed in the poem. "How do youths, sir ?" said the emperor. "I hear that you have written a most beautiful poem, and. I have sent for you that you may read it aloud to us yourself, and I have invited all the grand dukes and duchesses to come that they may have the pleaeure of hearing you." Theis the poor man prostrated himself at the emperor's feet. "Send me to Siberia, sir," he said ; "force me to becnme a soldier, only do not compel me to read that poem." "0, sir'you are cruel to refuse me the Pleasure, but you will not be so ungallant ae to refuse the empress the pleasure of hearing your verses, and she will ask you herself. And the empress asked him. When he had finished she said "I do not think he will write any mare verses about us again. He need nob go to Siberia just yet" A nobleman entered into a conspiracy against the emperor and vvaa sentenced to Siberia. Hia eyes were bandaged, and he was put iu a dark carriege,and for seven days and nights they traveled on and on, only stopping to take food. At last he felt they must have reached Siberia, and in the utmost anguish he peroeived that the car- riage had stopped,and the bandage was taken from his eyes, and—he was in his own home! He had been driven round and round St. Petersburg the whole time; but the fright cured him. A TERRIBLE CYCLONE. New Vox* and Vicinity' Persons iiilled—A Vast Amonrit or PreDerty Destroyed.

Although much is said of the imperti erne of clerks in dry -goods stores, there are many models of longesuffering politeness among them ; and it was one of this nage class to whose lips rose a rejoinder whioh even his diplomatic employer counted as excusable, if nothing better. Whenever a special sale of any line of goods was announced from the store in question, there invariably appeared on the next morning a woman who insisted upon being shown every article on the shelves, but lied never been known to purchase any thing. The store was not a large one, and it had fallen to the lot of one clerk in pertios ular to wait upon this woman again and again. At last there came it day when a sale of blankets was announced. Early the next mottling the woman appeared, and for nearly half an hour the patient clerk dis• played blankets until they were heaped high before him. At lase he announced that there were no more. "Very well," said the woman, indiffer- ently talting up her hand -bag; "1 wan just looking for a friend." " Mestam,' mild the elerk, in a tone of perfect respect, "11 you think there is any chance that your friend is among these ' blankets I will go through them again."

Those of our readers who do their own dressmaking know how trying an under- taking it is to attempt to fit one's waist on oneself; and all know how tiresome it is to stand for the dressmaker to do inespecially in these days of artistic waist draping, says a correspondent.

I know they look as if they were sort, of thrown together, but therein Hee their art, and it la a studied at, too.

Children Cry for Piteiter' Cestorie/ fitting of a modern blouse effect than of an ordinary tightly clasped affair. What shall we do to make thesirrange- ment of our garments, either by ourselves or by some one else' a more comfortable undertaking? Some ladies have adjustable wite forms, some have stuffed forma made according to their measurements, but these are quite expensive. I relieved my own distress by making a dummy by stuffing a well -fitting waist with rags and batting, and thus have something on which to fit and drape and get the prospective lay of collars, revers, etb., ad infinitum or rather to the extent of my needs, without any danger of milling out sighs and perhaps more forcible attestations of physical weari- ness. A halninch-in jab of a pin is just the same to it as a caressing pat, As to method of procedure, use an old, well -fitting waist rather than a fitted lining, because the mere lining will be more apt to stretch. Take in the seams somewhat, that the waist may be more nearly your own exact inze ; in regard to the arms, the waist sleeves will be larger than your own arms, so take your armmeasure at different points and at the arm hole—here pretty tightly, if you expect to sew in the sleeves of the waist—then make the waist sleeves aocording to the measurements. As. to sewing in the sleevesslif I were to make another or to rearrange my dummy's arms, I should stuff the sleeves separately and merely attach to waist by their tops. I am convinced that the new waists could then be more easily drawn onto the dummy, because the arms would swing more readily —more naturally. For mounting thefraine, use a stick long enough to admit of hanging a. skirt frame. .A.t the end of the stick wind rags very tightly, tacking or nailing the first few layers to the pole to prevent the completed form frona slipping down. When a sufficient pad- ding of rags is put on to support a car - set, arrange around the padding an old one already shaped to your ferm—if you wear such, if not, beg one of some one similar to your size. Over the corset place the waist and atuff with batting to fill out the shape of the waist as nearly as you cp. The corset mite as a support to the waist, in - which it is also well to leave the stays.
