TUE TWIN •WIVES,.. _' Jack Demon met Mary Learey .at a bell. 'By chauue,. the usual way.' as fell in love with her at once, b'octunately, his passion was return ed, and as Jack and Mary both wisely believed 'delays are danger our,,' their wedding clay oaths along just foul' weeks after their filet meet- ing. -At the wedding J telt fur the first time saw Sarah Learey,-.iillary'e twin sister. The two girls were as much alike as ttv.upeas—Loth blonde, with curliBg heir, soft, dangerous -looking blue eyes, exquisite mouths, and handsome figures. There was but one essential difference between them—Mary wore bouts No. 2, and Sarah wits so unfortunate as to wear No. 4. and a close fit at that. When the girls got vexed with each other—and of course, being sisters, they wove constantly falling out—Mary always twitted Sarah of her No. 4 shoes, and Sarah, by way of rutaliatiou, accused Mary of put- ting India ink under her eyes to make them appear larger. The two girls dressed exactly alike ie the mint'teet particular : they had always done so, 'and now that Mary was to be married Sarah sew Ito reason why she should not have a while silk dress and veil as well as her sister, especially as she was to be first bridesmaid. - As soon as the ceremony was over and the kissing gone through with Jack gave his arm to bin wife, as he thought, to lead her out to supper. 'My darling !' ho whispered in her oar, 'how lunch your sister looks like you ! Only you are a thousand times more beautiful in my eyes !' 'Why Jack Damon ! how you talk V cruel Sarah Leave". 'What would Mary say to that !' `JI ry I Mary who, dearest 7, eck.•d Jack, pressing her hand. • ' iV!1!', your wife, of course !' said Sarah. _. 'My wife ! I don't thing I un-. derataud you, dear I' said Jack, be- ginning to irel a little mixed up in his head. "Do you think I'm your wife ?' asked Sarah. 'I should think so, from what Pa" - eon Smith just said.' Sarah giggled. 'Mary I' she called over her shout der to the sullen -looking bride, who was following after with Tom Grimes, the groomsman. 'Your husband here claims me for his wife 1' 'You can have hirn,and welcome !' snapped Mary, 'and he won't be likely to mistake you for anybody else, if once he gets sight of those number fours of yours.' 'The Great Mogul V cried Jack, turning round and surveying his pretty and angry wife. 'Is this Mary, or the other one 7 Someone please tell me which woman I am the husband of, for by Jupiter ! I do not know myself !' 'Look at the ink under her eyes, and you'll always know her I' whis- pered Sarah, spitefully. ,Jack dropped her arm and went back to Mary. 'My love, forgive me. You look so much alike ! But you are a thousand times lovelier !' 'That remark must be a favorite one with Jou, Jack Damon !' pouted the bride. 'I've heard you make it once before to -night to Sarah I' •Oh, goodness gracious 7' cried Jack, 'what a mess I've got into Forgive me, darling, and I'll never speak to another woman again ! Never ! Not even my washerwo- man !' And after considerable pleading, and great display of contrition on Jack's part, pardon was granted. Two weeks afterward Tom Grimes and Sarah were married and, to make matters as bad as possible, Grimes and his wife, and Damon and his wife all went to live at the same boarding-house. Scarcely a day passed but the ex- traordinary resemblance of the two sisters to each other got somebody into difficulty. Messages were delivered to Sarah which were intended for Mary ; secrete were told to Mary which were designed only for Sarah; the servants were always calling Mary Mrs. Grimes and Sarah Mrs. Damon. Tom Griiuos brought home a set of pearls one night for his wife, She was in the parlor when he came. 'Here, dear,' said he, 'I have brought you something as a Christ- mas gift, but I don't want your sister to know anything about it. She's so confoundedly jealous that there'd be a row forthwith. She _-��.:,vwnisr::a:ads=:of..<,>peanlarherself,�-: b.ut. just between you and me—don't say a word—she's getting too sallow to wear pearls I' Of course it was Mrs. Damon 1. . wbotn Torn was add meting,: and she eat silent wltW1 aetolai,sbi ent. tae had thought To a very devoted hueband, and hero he' •was, uii kip,g; lova to .her, Sbtrdetermined not to bay ,anythlt►g, but as sogn as jack got jlollle to toll him everything.I Her poor Oster! Tom ought to be severely punished. So shethauked Torn for the jeweler and Tom kissed her in spite of herself, and went oil down town, feeling a little vetted at Sarah's want of enthusiasm over his costly preaant. 'Confound the women 1' he said to himself r 'a fellow never knows how to please 'em !' • When Jack game home Mary wept to him at once with the penile, and with tears in her eyes told -him the whole story. Jack was horrified. That Tom should be . unfaithful was bad enough, but the Tom should be in love with his that was—prodig- ious! He decided to labor with Torn in seor a t. He took Tom aside that very night. 'Thomas,' said hp, 'I want to have a little serious talk with you.' 'Go ahead!' said Torn. '1 own up that I did go a little too far. But then what is a fellow to do when such a temptation is but be- fore him ? Don't tell Sarah. By George ! she'd be ferocious !' 'And who'd blame her?' said Jack, solemnly. 'Di n't you pro- mise to love and honor her, and none other, till (loath did you part ?' `I guess the thing did read about so, Jack.' 'And yet here you are, only five months married, making love to an- other woman.' 'What I' cried Tom, springing to his feet, and glaring at Jack like a tiger. 'You admitted it,' said Jack, cold- ly. 'Admitted it? Whoever says I admitted that is a liar !' 'You said you had gone too far—' 'And so I did. I drank too much at Higgin's the other night, and, at for the matter of that, so did you, Jack, and you know it.' 'But you gave my wife jewelry and- you kissed her.' 'I never, so help me Peter ! Your wife ? Why, good gracious ! Jack Damon ! Who'd ever think of kissing your wife when he could kiss mine as well ? Don't be offend• ed, Jack, but your wife is beginning to look old and sallow I was tell- ing Sarah go only a little while ago.' 'The deuce you were ! And Mary says you told her the same thing about Sarah !' 'Never ! I trust I am not a fool !' 'Very well ; we'll call up the women and see what they say,' said Jack, in desperation. The ladies were summoned. 'To which of you did Torn Grimes present a set of jewelry I' asked Jack, 'To me 1' said Mary Damon. 'And you are my wife I' said Tom, looking doubtfully from one to the other. 'His wife 1' 'shrieked Sarah. 'Only hear him !' 'Jerusalem 1' cried Tom, 'what a muddle 1 If either of you women is my wife step forward.' Neither stirred. Mary pointed to Sarah's feet. 'Tont Grimes, behold those feet. Haven't you lived with them long enough to recognize them 7 And you gave me jewelry and kissed me. And poor Sarah trusting you all the time.' Torn leaped forward and caught the weeping owner of the No. 4 fent in his arms. 'Thank Heaven that your feet are No. 4 I' said he. 'I wish they were No. 10, and then I might know my own wife when I saw her. Mrs. Damon, I mistook you for my wife, and hope you'll excuse me for in- timating that you were getting sal- low.' 'Come, Mary,' said Jack, '1 guess we'll be going ta our own room. Matters seem to be getting straight- ened out.' The pearls found their rightful owner, but a little coolness sprang up between the two sisters, which resulted in Tom taking his wife to Chicago "and Jack taking his wife to Bengal.. And now the resemblance of the sisters has ceased to be a source of annoyance. AN INTRODUCTION TO THE QUEEN. is en honor conferred upon only a favor- ed few.

Hepith ,letam t) , '!PF41ri}itionists'f .should calla der well the effeet9 of the efE'ortwto au '- prese the nee of whiskey in Ireland some, years ago. Not long ago the able editor; of the j#ritish Medical Journal; Dr.. Ernest Har.t, `Lade an investigation , and .lepgthy report upon the. terrible effects or ether. drinking ili Ireland, The Tlmee is t'ow `drsougsing the Subject. 1:t seems that in Ave csoanties, with a total population of $50,000, there are about 46,000 who actually drink 17,000 gallons of i'vite," an impure form of ether, per year, 'PL's habit is said to have originated years ago, when illicit stills were suppressed and Father Matthew's crusade made whiskey -drinking disreputable. The ravages of the habit are desorrbed as comparable only with those of the use of opium among the low classes of Chinese. Insanity is largely on the increase in the districts and the death -rate among the children of the ether maniacs is yery high. We have always contended that until mankind can be properly : housed and fed and trained into healthy vigorous subjects, able to exercise sufficient self-control, the suppres- sion of the use of alcoholic stimu- lants will but give rise to worse forms of intemperance. Tobacco users may get "food for re- flection" too from the contention that the decrease in the average sta. Lure of man as compared with that of women, which investigators have pointed out to be taking place in England, is due to the stunting effects of the tobacco habit on the men. This we think, considering the well known effects of tobacco on the hu- man cdnstitution,—on the circulation especially,thechief nutrient function, through the nervous system, is a rea- sonable contention. What habit, pe- culiar eculiar to men only, is there which would be more likely to cause such decrease ie stature ? As we have before stated, we believe that the to- bacco habit, in its powerful and in- sidious effects upon the constitution, is on the whole more injurious, more lowering to the human organization, morally as well as physically, than the alcoholic habit ; while many have declared from their own experience that the depressing effects of tobacco have absolutely created a desire for alcoholic stimulation. In this connection we may note what the Journal of Heredity says, as follows: One of the first things de- manded of a young man who is going into training for a boat race is, stop smoking 1 And he himself, long before his body has reached its high- est point of purity and development, will become conscious of the lower- ing and disturbing effect of smoking one inch of a mild cigar. No smoker who has trained Beverly for a race, or a game, or a fight, needs to be told that smoking reduces the tone of the system and diminishes all the forces of the body. . , E .N S1VIE O C4AN ' '`RAP, WivenAway with Baking Powder, Be s} O fa,r Ye.. t . .- See the.
