The actrees, standing item in her
rose-colered gown, with her , fresh
mmplexion toad her brilliaut eyee, the
light fallingeon her from a window
that overloofed the sea, was so beau-
tiful that Davidoff paused an instant
to look at her. Ho could
understand the irresistible spelt
wielded by this fascinating and feline
creature. He could understand the
pleasure a man might feel in allowing
himself to be torn by these polished,
sharp and delieate claws. In her he sate

bold enough to attempt to solve the

Clemence said with a smile:
"What would you have? One must

And she ran lightly downstairs,.
Davidoff rapped, and a voice reepond-
ed, "Come in."
He turned the knob and opened the
door, and beside • the open window,
buried in the depths of a large sofa,
he saw jaCques, his eyes hollow, his
lips livid. As he recognized the doctor
the young man grew a Shade paler and
his brow clouded. Ile rose, and going
toward his visitor slowly stretched out
his hand,
"You are angry with me," he said:
"A little."
"Only a little? T do not deserve s'o'
riuch indulgence. I told you last
that I watt a eowara you have
ieceived the proof ef it soon enough."
He spoke through his clenched teeth,
with a slight contraction of the fea-
tures. Davidoff, Whom he inspired
with pity, sat down beside him and
e.aid affectionately:
"What has happened since we parted
to prevent you keeping your engage-
ment with me? It ought to have been
it Pleasant one to keep."
"Can anything be plea.sant to me?"
responded Jhcques, in a low voice. "All
that I do is hateful and miserable. ,An
evil spirit has taken possession of me,.
and inspires me with the most fatal
thoughts."
"Resist it," reterned the doctor,

"Come with me," said the doctor to
Jacques, "I give you my word that I
will not quit you until you are cured,

Jacques burst into a fit of nervous
laughter that sounded harsh and pain-
ful in the doctor's ears,

Davidoff interrupted Jacques with
a quick gesture; he knitted his brow
and was on the point of saying: "You

is true, but Laurier is still alive. I

At this moment the sound of a cleer
voice calling "Jacques!" in the garden
below, was heard.
He advanced hastily to the window.
Clemence was gathering roses. She
saw him, and cried gayly:
"Well, is your sulking over? The air
is delightful. Come down, and we will
go to Villers to breakfast."
Jacques turned to Davidoff, and cried
in agitation:
"She calls nie, you see. She is wait-

said. She has terrible moments, it is

showing his white teeth in a broad

"You are going to drink a glees of

pushed the child toward his father -in -

uneasiness which Pierre's face „be-
trayed, he said to him anxiously:
"What is the matter?"
Pierre opened the envelope slowly,
unfolded the telegram, and read •the
imperious summons addressed to him
by his friend, He turned pale and his
brow clouded. His heart suddenly
seemed to contract.
"Is there any bad news?" asked
Agostino,

Pierre drew 'the young man aside,

It is pointed out that June is the lay.
mete month for battles, and we all know
that many engagements do culminate
in that same period.
In making buttonholes in materials
which fray easily it rs.a great help to
stitch twice around on the sewing
machine before the hole is cut, as a
firmer foundation is secured and no
fraying results.

The Behavior of Kites.
"The tree -tops eing, the lilacs sway,
The elouds skim by like cotton sails;
I've walked the gardener'a beds all day
Through watching kites with swing-
ing tails.
The kite, when first you take him oui
Upon the hill Where breezes swish,
Will knock his head and flop about,
And wriggle like a drowning fish.
But give him string,' up, up he'll rise,
To soar at ease from place to place;
A -wobbling down when daylight dies,
A smile upon his painted face.
If Aunt would only watch the kite,
Perhaps she'd get to Understand
The reason why 1 fret and fight
At being led about by hand.
If she would let me out instead
Across the fields, I'd never fight,
And end by coming home to bed
A -smiling nicely, like the kite."

ADVERTISING.
(Pittsburg Gazette -Times,)
-Advertising is the connecting link be-
tween the merchant and the customer,
There is not a doubt that daily adver-
tisements, In which there is a compre-
hensive and specific presentation of facts,
fig -urea and commodies, are read with
the seme avidity ap newt, reports and
usually with greater care and a more
definite end in view, Therefore, the mete
chant who falls to advertise is not (siz-
ing up to his real oppottunities and is
not alive to the first aid in prosperity.
Occasionally They Defy All Rules
and Make Queer Flights.
It has been truly said that, once
you fire a bullet from a modern rifle,
none can forecast what it will do or
where it will ultimately come to test.
Even when a pullet has an uninter-
rupted course, says Mr. Frank Scada-
more, in the London Globe, it is cap-
able of upsetting all knowncalcula-
tions of its flight and range. Before
the Battle of Omdurman a sick of-
ficer Was taken across the Nile and
placed under an awning, at least 5,500
yards from the nearest point of pos-
sible fire. This should. have ensured
him an ample margin of safety, but
none the lees a stray bullet ate up
the intervening three miles of desert,
struck him in the head and killed him.
Sheirtly before the Battle of Gilds%
in Sudan, General Sir Archibald Hun-
ter, Colonel Hacket-Thompson, C. B.,
and another °Meer whose narne es-
capes me were reconnoitering through
an 'opening in the wall of a disused
sakeeyeh, or waterwheel. The hole
in the wall was so small that the ;
officers had to stand one behind the
other to see anything, The officer •
whose name I forget was in front us-
ing a pair of binoculars, while Sir
Archibald Hunter was in •the rear.
The glint caused by the setting eun
shining on the glass of the binoculars
attracted the attention of a dervish
who, together with others, was retir-
ing along the Nile. He stopped, took
aim, and fired. It was a very good
shot, for it sped through one lens of
the binoculars, through the brain of
the officer holding them, killing him
on the spot, through the shoulder 'of
Colonel Haeket-Thompson, and finally
lodged in the breast of Sir Archibald
Hunter, where, I believe, It remains to
this day.
The vagaries of a bullet when it
touches the human frame are almost
beyond relief. During another Sudan
battle I caw an officer, a friend of
mine, go down apparently ghat
tierougle the head. To my surprise
and relief I met him walking about
after the battle apparently none the
worse save that his head was ban-
daged. Then he Showed me how it
bullet, striking 'and deflected by one
of the hooks of hie eennet chain, had
run right around his fon:heath cutting
a groove under the skin, and had then,
glanced off the heonit hook on the

A Military Compliment,
During the South African war an or-
der was iesued to the men of the High-
land regiments that they must cover up
their tartan kilts as they made too
good targets for the enemy. The order
proved very unpopular and caused a
great deal of dissatisfaction among the
soldiers concerned. When Sir George
White heard this he thought of a way
Out of the difficulty.
"Let 'them cover up only the front of
their kilts," he said, "The enemy will
never see the other side." -London An.
