Jack said 1 did this because 1 was never really in love awl didn't know the power a woman could exercise over a pian in that condition. Of coarse, I laughed him to scorn; oceause I knew my strength and Jaek's weakness,, and. in- sisted that, while sone men might be Waves, there were others who inherited the spirit of liberty and could not ig- nore it, even if they wanted to. A great source of delight to me was Jack's engagement to what he said was the only woman on earth. I had never seen her, and Jack had talked to me about her until i didn't want to see iter, but out of regard for him I never inti - meted what I thought about this incom- parable young woman. Ono day in August Jack came round to my office and insisted ,that I should o down to a summer hotel on the chore. I was about to take my summer vaca- tion, ane' he wanted ane to go there be- ea.use he had some friends he wanted me to meet, and one of them was a girl he was sure was the girl that Fate had intended for me. "There are some awfully nice people down there, and you know I can't get off until September except o';ar Sun- day„ 1 agreed at last to Jack's importuni- ties and went to the resort he desig'nn.t- ed, he acompanying me andpresenting me to his friends. Then1 . c wentba k c. home again after the Sunday was over, and I was left to my own devices. Ethel Lind, the young woman he, had mentioned as the one woman in the world for me, was certainly a woman of unusual force of character, but she had very evidently not met a man of • any type before, for within two days I felt euro that I could twist her around my fingers if I wanted to. , At the same time 1 am free to rue - knowledge that she did exercise a power ores me that no soman laud ever exer- cised over ane. It was a delightful sen- sation; yet it was more so to feel that, while she had me in thrall, it was I who was master of the situation, and could determine what the end of it was to be. "Miss Lind," 1 said one evening as we eat on the balcony of the hotel, "I have known you for a week, and do you know that what was predicted of my meeting you is coming true?" "What was the prediction, Mr. Poe?" she asked, with a little start of nervous- ness or consciousness that what I was about. to say she desired me to say above all things. "My friend. Carson has been bantering me a long time about the influence of woman upon the disengaged mind of ,main," I began slowly. "Is your mind disengaged?" "Never more so." "And your heart?" she asked, with a slight sigh, I thought. She was coming my way, and I knew it. But then, how could she help it? All women are very much the same emo- tionally. 'That was disengaged," I said, with a pretty strong aeent on the was. "Altd isn't it now?" ,She was actually pleading. I could tell it from her peculiar intonation. "I tam not so sure," I said, attempting to take her Band, which she coyly resist- ed, She laughed nervously. "Who has set up a claim against. it, Mr. Poe?' she asked, with a deli,eh'tful innocence. The moon had been under a stray cloud, but at that,;xnoanent it came out in dazzling splendor, and as the light fell upon her face I felt for the first time `":fiat I was in love, desperately in lave, nd I began to have a dread that some- thing was going to happen to destroy my happiness. I have understood since that either men or women when in love have this same experience. 1 was having it now, but I encouraged myself that victory was mine anyway, and I must not now show the white fea- ther. So I laughed when she asked me. "Oh!" I said, "no.bodythas, "but I think if somebody wanted to establish a claim it would not be congested." What I would have said next will never be known, but I was ready to say something I was never before ready to say, for just at that moment I heard a man's footsteps on the balcony, and the next minute Jack came around the cor- ner. "Oh! I beg your pardon!" he cried, starting back in: mock dismay. `Really I didn't know you were within miles." "And I'm sure I didn't know you were any nearer," I responued in no agreeable spirit, for there are times when, a man's temper is not improved by the unex- pected presence of a third party. Miss Lind merely laughed. Being the woman in the case she couldn't very well do otherwise, for the woman cnn's display her displeasure un- der sueh circumstances. "We really weren't expecting you, Mr. Carson," she , said, shaking hands with "I wasn't expecting myself," he ex- plained, "but by' nlucky stroke 1 was enabled to get off for three or four days, and, where better could I come than this?" • -0 "Thank ku,lresnIP a crude Ann we Mel glob ant iaf eigh..b of the betel, '"slue Leven% got hint ou our hamdir,.. t "Year the responded van ii kind of seraphic aoduletion in her voice. r "I wanted to kill him lot night."

Late in the afternoon Jack and I had gone out on the lawn to wait for the ladies, who always appeared there an hour before dinner. "Well, old man," he said, 'what'do yo think of Miss Lind by this tine?" "You wore right about her," 1 respond ed, "How?" "Well, as to her attractiveness, I never saw a woman more so:' "Does she come your way?" "I should say she did. But. I'm not exertingeemysclf much. I'm as much in love with her as site is with me, but I can conceal better than she can." "Can't she conceal it?" "She thinks she teen, but she can't Why, old fellow, the woman doesn't live who can hide her true feelings from me in such a matter. She's 'nine, sure, and I'll lot you be best man, and thank you for introducing me besides." Jack laughed. It seemed to be quite the appropriate piece to laugh, too, but There somehow I didn't like it, aro more laughs than one kind. As Jack was about to reply MIs Lind's aunt, Miss Lind and a roan I did not know' came, toward us from the hotel, and eve arose from the grass to meet. them. Ethel's smile when she spoke to me was something divine. "Do you know Dr. Drape, Mr. Poe?" said. Miss Lind's. aunt, •and I shook hands with the stranger after Jack had greeted him moat warmly. "Jack, my dear boy," said Dr. Drane, who was a man of sixty and quite fath- erly, "I have just heard the good news, and let me eond atulate you. .And, Ethel," he said, turning to Miss Lind, "you have certainly found a pearl of ,great price." I was dazed for an instant, and then their atrocious plot dawned on me. "Jack," I stammered, "what is the meaning of all this? 1 didn't—" Jack laughed, and it rasped like a file on a tender tooth. "Why, Mr. Poe," cackled the young woman in that egregiously silly way some women have, ."didn't you know Jack and Z were engaged?" How should I know Jack and she were engaged? He had never told me the name of that incomparable young woman of his, and I had never thought enough of her to ask him what it was. And now I thought less of her than ever.

His decadent is chiefly due to numerous small stores and. street traders with horse and wag • gory, which the daily needs of large area of London have brought forth, For ' merly, children born to casters either took uf, their father's work or intermar reed with others of the same calling, thus evolving a distinct class.

Famous old Petticoat Lane ' could boast of 575 stalls. A visit paid recently to the neighbor- hood of St. Luke's, in the East End of London, where the genuine `pearly' is mostly in evidence, elicited this naive definition ef his calling: 'A coster is a covey wot works werry 1 'ard for a werry pore living.' One who claims to have worked in St. Luke's as a poster for sixty years, and whose people for generations were cos- ters before him, lamented the decay of his tribe. 'They costers!' the old man said when the street traders were refered to; 'not much! Any bloke could call 'isself a coster wot sells matches in the street, but 'e ain't.

"Moved by the many suggestions that have been made by individual Writers for the cure of desertions in tie army," said Inspector General Burton, "the Gov- ernment has made great efforts, at vast expense, in the last five years to'mica- iorate the condition of the soldier in re- spect to his living, dress, enjoyments, comforts and contentment. "It has constructed for him barracks luxurious in their appointments compared to the .housing of the armies of other civilized countries throughout the wrold: it has provided in these barracks air space in dimension equal to the demands dictated by the best scientific thought; it has given him spring beds, mattress- es, pillows, shceta and pillow cases; it has provided him with toilets and baths of the most modern manufacture and much superior in general appearance and effect to similar necessities enjoyed by people in middle life; it has provided spacious reading rooms, supplied with newspapers and books: calculated to cater to the soldier's taste; it has bettered the amount and quality of his clothing; it is to -day supplying hien with the largest variety and best quality of food that is given to any army, and at many of the large posts it has provided magnificent exchange buildings, net a few of which have swimming tanks and gymnasiums thoroughly equipped for athletic exer- cises. It has made the domande of dis- cipline and authority over the soldier, in conformity with the spirit of the age, mild compared to what it was twenty years ago; it sends the uneducated sol- dier to school and gives the partially edu- cated every advantage of an extended education; it has provided outdoor amusements for him in the way of ath- letic games, and it has; in fact, aecom- plished everything to make him content- ed and to cause him to live out his en- listment—with one exception, it has fail- ed to provide an adequate punishment far the crime of desertion."—From the Washington Star. - - Among His Own.

His knowledge of geography was nil, but he thought he ought soon to be getting into "de Souf," and with that hope at heart rang the bell to a fine house on Charles street.

Walker claims that many city men when in doubt on some ab- struse point of business law, refer it to him, and he also acts as their almoner, distributing their hospital tickets and other contributions, out of which ho has a hobby for forming infinitesimal pen- sions for some who can no longer work. —London Globe. THE RUSH CITYWARD. 'Continued Decline in Population of Rural Counties in New York State. Twenty-one of the sixty-one counties of New York had fewer inhabitants by the census of 1901 than they had by the census of 1890. These counties, which include one-half of the area of the State, showed a falling off in ten years rang- ing from a few hundreds of inhabitants in some small counties to several thou- sands in some of the larger ones. Essex county, in northern New York, for instance, declined from 33,000 to 30,700 in the ten years. Wayne county, in western New York, famous for apples and mint, declined from 49,700 to 48,600. By many persons this decline in popu- lation was attributed to the continuance between 1893 and 1897 of a period of in- dustrial hard times, the general effect of which is to diminish population in rural or semi -rural districts. In such times, the demand for employment being decreased and the provision for public relief in farming counties being small, the larger cities are sought by needy, persons, and these conditions are re -1 fleeted in the ensuing census. The years between 1000. and 1905 hav- ing been marked by prosperity and abundance throughout the State, it was supposed that the decline in repletion in interior counties would cease, that some of the former loss would be re- gained, and that, perhaps, improved con- ditions would be reflected in the enesus figures of this year, which the en - shop v tire population of New York to bo more than 8,000,00, enincrease of 11 per cent. compared with the census of five years ago. Instead of this however, the recently completed state census shows that twen- ty -ono of the sixty One counties have fewer inhabitants than they had five pears ago. Some of those which show the largest decrease in five years are Chcmung, whieh includes the city of Elmira, heretofore one of the largest manufacturing towns in the southern tier, and Steuben, one of the most fer- ile of the farming eounties in the same region. The failing off in Chemung in five years was 2,458 and itt Stauben 1,007. Some of the eountiers of the State which do not show a decline in five years show at least very littlo gkln, Ocie of shore is Dutehess, which ineludes the city of T'ongghkeepsie and which is one of the best known of the dairy and fail - .bolt. . tog tlomilo s of tato Ittoote, vino rim "A woman has no sense of humor, they say," said Miss Hattie Williams, come- dienne, to the Chicago Chronicle, "but this has always struck me as being the best story I ever heard: "Mike McCarthy and Jacob Schmidt were fishing from a pier one day, and finally one of them bet the other $10 that he would catch the first fish.

People who tell you that there is no money in raising chicks may have tried to make money in the business by using setting hens as hatchers, and they might as well have tried to locate a gold mine in the cabbage patch. The business of a hen is—to lay eggs. As a hatcher and brooder she is out- classed. That's the business of the Chatham Incubator and Brooder, and they do it perfectly and successfully. The poultry business, properly con- ducted, pays far better than any other business, for the amount of time and money invested.

A use to which the submarine tele- phone may be put in time of war, says the Technical World, will be for com- municating with submarine torpedo boats, as well as for detecting the pres- ence of the latter class of vessels be longing to an enemy, For the former purpose an instrument called a multi- ple sounder has been constructed. This has an alphabetical keyboard resembling that of a typewriter, a pressure on, a key causing a set of hammers to beat on a diaphragm. the Morse telegraph sign for each letter. Anyone who can oper- ate a typewriter can in this way send a submarine message. A special appara- tus somewhat like a stock ticker would enable the v message to be picked up on a submarine boat and printed on a tape. In the same way a message could be sent from the submarine boat and received at a shore station or on the flagship of a fleet. A more simple way of sending messages would be by attaching a strilc- ing gong or bell to the sides of a ship and tapping out a certain agreed-upon ode. Was His Wife.
