"Where did you and (be kid, Dougher ty?'' "I didn't. It found me. ' I guess Its mammy was a-shoppln', and it must have walked out of a mtore. Anyhow I never caught night of it until It trot ted out into the street and took Lold of ny hand. I waited round with ft a long time, hopln' its mammy would come for it. and then I brought it hero." "Ilia me me, if It ain't the dandiest youngster I ever clapped eyes on!" put n the sergeant as the nbsurd llttlelinnd patted the silver star on the sergeant's coat. Seems to 1h well togged out too. Ain't no ordinary, everday kid, Judgln by its clothes." The object of this conversation now held up its short little nrrjs . and wrinkled up its face. The tiny lips be gan to quiver as no move was made to take It. "Blamed if I dare hold you!" said the sergeant. "I'd break you some where or iet you drop, and then wbere'd you beV' Dougherty took the bundle of white stuff and carried it to the window, where the aavphire eyes looked out and blinked merrily at the passersby. The sergeant sniffed and blew his nose vigorously. lie had suddenly remem bered that many years ago Dougherty had lost his three children in some frightful accident. The plump ringers ran along the win dow glass, and the white hooded head nodded at the stream of people that hurried by. But no one noticed, and Dougherty was about to plan somo new amusement when n well dressed man caught sight of the baby's face and then, nervous and excited, ran into the station house. "How came this child here?" ho de manded, almost fiercely, as he took the little creature Into Lis arms and press ed kisses on the dimpled fists. "1 am the child's father. Tell ine quickly how came she here." "No. 740 found it in the middle of the street," answered the sergeant, refer ring to the register. "It was at the cor ner of S and M. in the busiest part of the shopping district." "My Clod! It's a wonder she wasn't crushed to death by the cars or tram plod under horses hoofs." There was u hurried toning of the station house door, the rustle of silken skirts, mid a white faced, trembling woman appeared. At sight of the man and child she stood as If too bewildered and paralyzed to speak. Then the bundle of lace and the white hood and the small shoes began to wiggle and squirm, aud in another moment the baby was running toward its mother, who now was softly weeping. She clasped the child In her arms, and the sergeant noticed that Dougherty drew his rough sleeve over his eyes and then hurriedly left the room. It seemed strange, thought the ser geant, that the mother and father of the child apjtoared so distant. He was Still more bewildered when the child's father lifted his hat aud said. "Shall I take Muriel to the carriage?" and the mother answered, half audibly, "If you will be so kind." Then they thanked the sergeant for bis kindness and passed out into the sunshine. At the carriage door the man assisted his wife into the vehicle and then handed the baby to her. She nodded her head in silent thanks. He again lifted his hat and was soon lost In the crowd of passersby. . That night a woman with a L.tvy. sorrowful heart knelt by one side of her baby's cradle and wept bitterly. Ic'or the first time In several weeks she had been face to face with the man whom she had loved and married, the fluttering or irregular pulsa tions arc an indication of weak ness of the nerves or muscles of the heart.

Had she but taken the opportunity to bid him return, had she but begged him to end the wretchedness of the past month, had her lips but obeyed the commands of her heart, could she for once have murdered her pride and ex tended her hand to him, how different might their future be! Such thoughts flew through her mind with agonizing, tormenting quickness. There was no world outside her own heavy heart. Her head fell among the down coverlets of the cradle, and she 6ohled aloud. She did not hear the soft step behind her. She did not know that some one had entered the room until an arm was about her and a beseeching voice was eaying: "Claire! Wife! I have returned to beg forgiveness. Tlease be friends again. I cannot exist without you. riease! Tlease!" "It Mas such a silly quarrel, wasn't It, dear?" she said, struggling closer to him and raising her wet eyes to his. "And yet we were so stubborn. I'm sure we'll never quarrel again, and even If we do you won't go away, will you? And we won't wait a ' whole month to make up. will we?" The tiny creature In the cradle moved. The small arms reached out and clutched at the silken hangings of tbo canopy. Two sapphire eyes opeued and looked at the man and woman to whom the happiness of renewed love had come. ! thopplB."

I believe I am safe In saying there , were extensive fisheries carried on for . them in the sixteenth century at St. I Mawes and Fowey, Cornwall, and in , most of the narrow harbors of Britain their flesh being highly valued by the ! gentry in those days, but now nothing of them is appropriated to man's use in England. Contemporary Review. now Sponnri Are Sold. When offered for sale in the local market in the Bahamas, sponges are either piled tin loose or made into strands or beads of from two to' ten sponges each. lhe best sponges are usually made Into strings of from eight to ten sponges each. Others arc generally sold in lots not strung. The buyer, however, is not guided In his purchase by the number of sponges mi a string, but by what a certain lot will weigh, and the weight is never given. but the buyer must estimate it; hence practical experience Is needed in the purchasing of sponges. Ills Cork L.era. "Along about 1S90," said a veteran physician, "I amputated the legs of a man who was blown up in a boiler ex nlosiou and helped him procure a couple of cork substitutes.

A Broadway shoe manufacturer was asked what method of advertising he found most profitable. "Placing my men near the window," he said, "so they can work In view of the public. I don't know of anything that catches the attention of tin passer by more quickly than the sight of a demonstrator sitting close to the win dow running a machine for dear life. . "Manufacturers of all kinds of goods have adopted this plan. Walstmakers put their most skilled workers on exhi bition to show how the finest garments are cut and-sewed. Cigar manufactur ers take the public Into their confidence and let them see the process of rolling as performed by the cleverest bands. Men who deal In mechanical contriv ances have found that it pays to have at least one machine set up near a win dow so the crowd outside may observe the iutricacy of its parts and the rapid ity of Its action. Jewelers have station ed their most expert lapidaries within view of the street that possible custom ers may see how precious stones are cut and polished and set. "It isn't everybody who can work la public. It takes a person with good strong nerves and concentration of thought to do difficult work in a show window. I have men In my employ who are excellent workers, but they get flustered when subjected to unusu al surveillance and ruin everything they put their hands to.
