HOW IS IT ,A WOMAN CAN SEE WASEHER HANDS .ALMOST WELL EYASES!WITH HER Women have at least one sense which men lack. It may appropri- ately be called the Mirror sense, inns-' much as it enables thein to see them- selves without a looking -glass, and even gives them a consciousness of what is behind them. Alae, they have a sort of vision in their finger-tips, the sense of touch being to them a form of sight. By tnet}ne of this seventh sense women are constantly working small miracles. Take the tying of a knot in a thread with the fingers of one hand. That there should be any difficulty about it never oeeurs to a wornan until some man comments with astonish- ment upon the feat which is so un- consciously executed.

The squaws chuckled and looked at each other; and the judge listened to hear the joke. "Mox-mox Totlum," said one. "Him smart, man. Heap good friend of Hawk -eye Jack. Him Hawk -eye Jack's brothel." On investigation the judge found ' that the two )radians were in partner - shat. I GYPSIES ON '1'IIE MARCH 'l'he German peasant hates beggars and gypsies almost as much as he hates fire. We were six months in the Black Forest before the war, writes Mrs. Alfre Sidgwick in her book Home Life in Germany, and ,net only one beggar the whole time. He was a decent -looking old man who seemed to tisk :elms unwillingly. Ilut in some parts of Germany there were a great many unpleasant -look- ing tramps. The village council puts up u notice that forbids begging and has a general fund from which it sends tramps on their way, but it dues not seem able to deal with the caravans of gypsies that conte from Hungary and •Bohemia. In a Thur- ingian village the cane. down one morning to Mill our inn locked and barricaded as if a riot or an attack were expected. Even the shutters were drawn and bolted. "Was ist dean los?" we asked in amazement and were told that the gypies were comi "Bung.t will they do you any harm"." we asked, "They will steal all tliey can lay hands on," our landlady assured us. She was a widow, and her brewer, the only roan in her employ, was prob- ably standing guard over his own house. We thought the panic seem- ed extreme. but we had never en- countered Hungarian gypsies on the warpath, and we did not know how many were seining. So, after us - our excited little frau that we should stand by her as well as we could, wd went to an upper window to watch for the enemy. Presently the procession begun, a straggling procession of the dirtiest, meanest - looking ruffians ever seen. There was wagon after wagon swarming with ragamuffins of both sexes and of all ages. The Jaen were mostly on foot, casting furtive glances to right tend left, evidently snappers -up of unconsidered trifles, truculent, rag- ged, wearing evil -looking knives by their sides. During their transit the village had shut itself up, as Coventry did for Lady Codiva's ride. - Tom Moore ;ue'a of silk. will you?"

In the year 1880 he enlivened the town of Colfax, Washington, with some highly unus- ual transaction in horseflesh. The old judge in Colfax, who settled most of the difficulties between his neigh- bors out of court, had fully won the confidence of the Palous Indians, who were fairly numerous in the neigh- borhood. They came to him for in- formation and advice on all subjects. Whatever the judge told them about the elusive technicalities of law they remembered and applied in their daily dealings. One day Moxmox Totlum came to tl'c judge with a serious problem. All his horses had been stolen. "Hawk -eye Jack bad Indian," he said. "Yon know Hawk -eye Jack? Short hair." He indicated with his hands that, unlike the other Indians, Hawk -eye Jack wore his hair bobbed at the shoulders instead of braided. "Him steal horses. Sell um in Farm- ington," The judge was sympathetic. "Do you know whom he sold them to?" he asked. "Yes. Tob Oleson—Mr. Turner— everybody. I see urn horses in Farmington." The case was simple. "You go right over to Farmington and ' get then,, Mox-mox. They're your horses still; that's the law. Whenever a man pays money for stolen horses he' must get it back from the man who sold them to him. Just go over to Farmington and take them." Mox-mox hesitated. "Hawk -eye -tack very bad Indian. Him no pay hack." There was force in what Max-mox said. Hawk -eye Jack's reputation was indeed bad. The men who bought the stolen horses were unlikely ever to see Hawk -eye Jack again. , "They are the ones to worry," said the judge. ",Just find you horses and take them back." Mox-mox Totlum was pleased with the decision. He went in' search of the purchasers and in a few days was hack in Colfax with his horses. The settlers who had lost their money stood the loss and said nothing. In a few weeks Mox-mox visited the judge again for moral and legal support Hawk -eye Jack steal um horses," he remarked dolefully. "What! Again?" Mox-mox nodded sullenly. "Heap bed man, Hawk -eye Jack." "Do you want him arrested?" Mo-mox shook his head decidedly. "Me no want trouble." "Well, I guess there is nothing to do except find them, Mox-mox.

"That doesn't seem to do much good, dear lad; I've been suing ever since I came here this afternoon, and I do not seem to have accomplished anything. Tom, say we shall be married soon, there's a dear." "Bessie," he said slowly, holding her at arm's length, so that he could look deep into her eyes, "I'll have to get a clerkship somewhere before that can be. My whole literary work is mortgaged for the future." "You shall not keep that wicked agreement, Tom." "Oh, Bessie, a promise is a prom- ise," said Moore. "When I have found a position I'll consider your proposal of marriage. Can't you see, dear, what poor proof of my love for you it would be to allow you to share my present lot? Think how we should struggle, perhaps, almost starve." I should not care if I were with you," she said. "But I, Bessie? It would break my heart to know you were bearing .such desolation for love of me." "Where there is love there can be no desolation." Moore's vpice shook as he answer- ed her, but he remained firm in his determination. "You are the bravest girl in all the world, Bessie, but even your sweet words shan't make me close my eyes to the truth. We will go on as we are now. I'll fight it out, and when I am satisfied that I can offer you one tithe of what you deserve, if God wills that I, succeed, 1'71 come to you with open arms. I've no head for business. It's a new world I'll have to conquer, dear. We must wait and I'll not let you bind yourself to me. Perhaps there will be some one else some day—" She stopped his mouth with a kiss. "How ran you be so Cruel?" she half sobbed, "There can never be any one but you." "But," he saki mischievously, "you took so long to make up your mind, I thought—" ' Tom, you don't love me or you would not tease me 80." "Oh, ^ if you are to be believed, teasing is no sign of- indifference," said Moore. "It's a leaf front the book you' wrote me this last year that you are reading now, Bessie!" "You are so obstinate" she sigh- ed. "Ah, Tom, you will! succeed in spite of all. I know you Will." "Then, dearest, let us watt. Think, nay wife if yoti 'disobey me •as a' sweetheart?"

"Father is coming after me in half an hbur," she continued, taking off her hat as sale spolo°. "So soon?" responded Moore, re- gretfully. There was a knock on the door. "Come in," said Bessie, quite at home as lady of the }rouse. "What is that?" said Moore, look- ing at her, "Come in," she repeated, blushing as she realized her ,presumption. "So you have established yourself already?" said the poet, his eyes twinkling, as he opened the door.

' The faithless hussy!" ejaculated the poet, in scathing condemnation. "Hush!" said Bessie, now scenting a love story, and correspondingly in- terested. ' "So Isaac—that's the son of the dairyman, you know—" I'm satisfied on that point, if the dairyman is," observed Moore, wick- edly. Bessie took a pin from her dress. "I'll punch you with this if you don't behave, Tom Moore." "Is that a joke, Bessie?" "Yes, you'll think so." f "Well, I won't be able to see the Point of it if you perforate me. Go on, Mrs. Malone." "So he swore he'd get even—" "The dairyman? Oh, then he did have his doubt !after all? Whom did he suspect, Mrs. Malone?" Moore leaped off the table just in time to escape a vicious thrust from the pin, as Mrs. Malone, good-natur- edly indifferent to •his interruption, continued her recital. "Pke thracked the fine fellow home or at least as far as he could, and though he lost sight of him without locatin' his house, he learned beyond all doubtin' that be is a great gentle- man of wealth and fashion." "Ike is? I'il have to look him up if that is so," said Moore, pleasant- ly "Evidently the dairyman was right to be suspicious, and what does Mrs. Dairyman say now?" "I'm not talkin' about Ike," re- plied Mrs. Malone, scornfully. "It's the strange lad who is the rich mean." "Oh, I see, Mrs. Malone. I thought you had discovered the reason, for the dairyman's suspicions. Novi I think he was quite unreasonable to have his doubts." "Go on, Mrs. Malone. I think it is delightfully romantic," said Bes- sie, paying no attention to the re- marks of her lover. "Romantic!" repeated Moore, in a disgusted tone. "Sure, put a bit of a scoundrel after a lass of lower station and instead of shouting for the watch she always says `How ro- mantic!'" 'You will have to leave the room. if you speak again before Mre.
