She was a had -featured wofnan. ac- customed to the give • and take of the world. She had" no Idea that she had sown tbe aeed ofediecontent in a girl's' heart. Jessie Was always peeky end fanciful, and she was' that set on Dick Liversedge that there was no arguing with her. Dick was all right -a poor, mild sort, that hadn't got a fling in him. The dead -and -gone 'Alderson, who had come home drunk regularly every Satur- day night, had. been different to that. s Everyone has their own standard. Miriam Aidereon Weald havo.chosen a son-in-law of another pattern. But Jessie had chosen for herself, and now, walking up and down Fishergate staring at the hats in the shop windoWs, she told heraelf that she had chosen bad- ly. Her mother Was right. Dick was "near," and Matha Cranfleld, Ins cou- sin, who, had been after him for years, would have a' fortune. All Preston knew that. Three houses in Broad Street, a bit o' Money in the bank. Jessie stared at a bat with a rose in it, and failed to see its charms throuth her tears. , "Let him 'ave 'er," she said to herself. "I don't want him if he don't want me." She turned suddenly. Someone bad thrust his hand through her arm. Dick Liversedge was looking at the hats, too. "Choosin' one ter the weddin', lass? What's your fancy, now ?" "What's yours," said Jessie. Her voice was hard. She dld not look round at him; he seemed so mighty sure of her. "What do you say to that ?" he said, pointing to cne of plain straw. with a bow of ribbon on it. "Nice and neat and natty." "And cheap." said Jessie. "And cheap I That ain't no fault. You and me couldn't have it if it was- n't." "Couldn't we?" said Jessie. "Martha Cranfleld has one with two roses in it. I'm as pretty as her." "A sight prettier," said Dick. "Mar- tha's got to be fine, case folks should forget to look at her. When a lass has big blue eyes and yellow hair—" feesie turned a discontented shoulder to hlm. "It's easy Wein'," she said. "Words is cheap, toe." They walked the length of Fishergate In silence, and, turning up New Hall I.nne, passed the mill where most -if their daylight hours were spent. The girl looked up at the grim building, with its darkened windows and its chimneye looming against the sky. "Hateful old place!" she said. "Them wheels gririd, the life out of you. I ain't never- htn young." She turned Ito the lad who tvalked beside her; her eyes blazed all her rebellion at him. "You ain't never bin Young, neither," she said. "We're old afore our time.

Its ap- proach was responsible for some fren• eied telegraphing, which threw the ship- ping interests into a panic. Orders were issued to hold up the sailing al esery vessel due to leave, and inessages 1,ere dispatched to lower 15elaware sta- tion to intercept several outbound steam- ers and warn them to seek apchorage ont of the berg's path. MARITIME INTERESTS EXCITED. For several hours maritime interests were intensely excited isy the unheard- of presence of an iceberg in the bay. Later when the 'true story of the wonder- ful feat was flashed over the wire It seemed so utterly incredible that the ex- citement, if anything, was increased. It was not until one of the taatest tugs in the harbor had steamed down the bay and wired verification of the story that the panic was allayed. Only the providential co-operation of the winds and tides, and the most fa- vorable weather conditions enabled the lug to accomplish the feat. In spite of the almost Inconceivable resits attendant upon the berg's capture, not a member of the tug's crew was injured. TWO MEN FROST-BITTEN. Two men suffered from bad frost. bites, but this was due to their own carelessness in braving theoirctic tein- perature In the berg's vicinity without proper clothing. Their experience wos a warning to the rest of the crew, and when the tem with the prize passed the Breakwater every man aboard eves muf- fled as if for a Peary relief expedition. The length of the iceberg was 500 fcet. and it Is estimated that it will yield fully 500,000 tons, which is nearly sufficient to make up the ehortage in Ice crop due to the mild winter. The work of cutting up the mountain of lee will have to be pushed because of the rapidity with which it will melt under the spring sunshine. The manatee berg was captured tiff the Grand Banks of "NeWfoundland. It was made fast at great risk by the &ming men on the tug, who, In smell boats tied staunch ropes aroupd the rnotintain of Ice. and then Id out a long tow -line from the tug, and, with grap- piing hoOks, secured a fastening which held flrm after sevetal attempts had 'resulted in failure.

But one Sunday night in the early summer of 1887, while returning from church, M. Muset stopped suddenly, and declaring that he had left his books in the pew, begged his wife to walk on slowly while he returned and recovered them. She agreed; hut though she walked very slowly and finally waited he did not return, and at last, some- what alarmed, she went back to the church, which she found shut up. After aiuch trouble she discovered the care- taker, and, stating that she was sure her husband must be loeked in the building. she got him to open the doors. But when the heavy gain WAR thrown open M. Muset was nowhere to be seen; anti after -making n thorongh earth tip - peered evident that he was not there. Then Mme.

No explorer now -a -days thinks cf searching for Atlantis. the vast island supposed to be somewhere In the Allen. tic Ocean. But many expeditiens in ancient times set out to distover it. Some have thought, that the Canary le. lands are the remaies of the sunken continent. An Egyptian priest is saki to have told Solon ef Its existence, ly. Ing off the Peters of Hercules in tho ocean, and larger than Sibya and Asia Minor together. The legend of Atlantis runs that it wits engulfed by the waves tlirough an earthquake ut the. close of a long contest which Its Inhabitants maintained against the Athenians. For tnore than slx centuries the "Home of Gold," the land of the Aztecs of Mexico, was as much a mystery as lost Atlantis. But that such a place actu• ally existed was proved In. 1900, In Essex, England. It stands in the cen- tre of a rececourse, the only other building being a windmill. The coUrse runs quite close to the church, and 'two or Wm. -races are held there every year. The circumstance Is rendered more re- markable by Wet tact that the ohurett was built after the racecourse was laid out. It Is very probable that In order to attract people to the churchea the ser- mons will be made much shorter.

Whether flirting in church will be en- couraged as a means of bringing more people to worship Is a debatable point. The Rev. M. B. Williams, however, Is distinctly in favor of flirting ln church.
