A MISUNDERSTANDING.
Cbeedle and I Lad spent tbe eve

ing out of town on a visit to some rel
i atives. and this was oar crucial glass
iof whisky and soda. We had been
very candid with one another, and
; were in a line glow of Honesty.
“It’s a breach of coulidence, I’m

thing you ought to know, because you
are vain enough already. (Nooffence,
of c< *m-e. old man. We’re being frank,

gooi taste; fur whatever else you may
be. Phil, you are a gentleman”
“ V colorable imitation at least, I
hope,” said 1.
“You know my wife’s cousin ?’’ he
began
“She has so many.”
“Awful crowd I Rail mean the pret
ty one.”
“Little girl with flaxen hair? Rather
a shade—too conscious for her pro

“Yes Ha. ha 1 Miss Marsh.” He sip

“It is a pity. My wife told me. I
should never have suspected it myself.
She's a little impressed by you,"
“lu love with me ?”
“Damn your complacency! I sup

“Poor girl!” said I
“She isn’t a fool, either.”
u Not a bit of it.” i cried.
“ I’haf makes it all the more extraor
dinary.’’
"1 don’t see that.”
“My object m tolling yon is to warn
you against playing off that infernal
trick of yours on her. Yon know
what i mean ! That way you have of
talking to a woman as if sue were the
only one of her sax in the world.”
“A reprehensible habit. S. *. linger

“Yes, do be careful, old mat*.”
W e were silent awhile. 1 got up,
murmuring again, “Poor girl!” bade
farewell to Cbeedle, and went home,
1 had not intended to be at the Massio’s
party on the following evening, but
,mowing that Miss Marsh would be
there, and feeling anxious to begin the
i iiel business of disisliusioument at
once —that it might be the sooner ovei
—1 dressed and went-
The drawing room was very crowd
ed. I looked about for Miss. Marsh
and presently espied her in a far cor

toward her. Mie marked my ap

“How hot it it in here!” said she

od’ we sat down side by side under a
tub palm, and looked at one another.
“How pleasant it is out here!” she
murmured
•“So cool 1" said 1.
Conversation was certainly difficult.
“•The usual rumor concerning you is
out.” said she.
‘“lndeed! ’ 1 cried. It was no time
to be witty.
They have married you again, Mr.
VVroughtnight.
“U ho is the unlucky lady this time ?”
“it would not be fair to tell. —And
two are mentioned.’’
Poor girl 1
“You know that rumor is a lying
jade. .Miss Marsh?”
“By nature yes. But sometimes -
oy accident she speaks the truth.”
11 i’v valiantly women cover up their
scarsl
“()f course.” said 1. “there is no foun
dation for the rumor.”
"I had hoped there was,” said she.
softly.
Brave heart! It was a dire business'
““There maybe someday,” 1 mnr
nured- ““1 mean that I expect 1 shall
marry sooner or later.”
ti Oh, 1 hope so,” said she, “When

“if she were like yon,” said 1, and
-topped.
“She won’t be,” said Miss Marsh,
quickly.
ih heart was torn with pity for her.
"One so seldom marries the persi u
lie* wants to,” said 1. breaking the
truth to her gently.
“And how much better for its that
.s. isn't it ?”
Toe rejoinder hardly pleased me.
“How do you mean, .Miss Marsti?"
“I mean that the o! ject of our lirst
ev.- is so rareiy the person to make us
really happy.”
1 remembered that this was her
third season.
-First love is :he only love,” said I.
“Ob, no,’’ said she.
“Oh, yes.’ I repeated iinnly. It was
no time for mawkish labeling, Ms
duty was plain.
“Air. U roughtnight.” said she. “he

too young yet to kiK-w what is best £oi

It seemed an odd way to talk, as 1
was at le -i two years her senior; but

happiness.

j teuce of death!
1 A gre.it silence fell on us. She mils-
I ed. looking at me with strange intent
! ness
“Mr. Wroughtnight,” said she. “1
1 have a mind to be honest with you.
I have a strong prejudice iu favor of
honest dealing. My honesty may cost
ime your good opinion, but 1 don’t
mind that, I mean that I have enough
faith in your good sense to believe
that you won’t think me unwomanly
I and immodest in saying what I pro
pose to say.”
I rose in great agitation.
“Miss Marsh.” I said, “pause, reflect,
i Don’t speak yet. You may save us
both much pain.”
“Nonsense!” said sLe sharply.
I was surprised and a little affront
| ed.
“1 beg your pardon,” said I. “Go
Ion.”
•She fluttered her fan nervously.
' I am afraid,” said she, “we don’t
quite understand one another. At
least, I think 1 understand. Rut you
don’t.”
I moistened my dry lips. “Go on,”
I said again, breathlessly.
"Mrs. Cbeedle has told you some
thing about me?”
“No.”
“Mr. Cbeedle. then? Somebody?”
“ Yes,” said I.
“U hat have they told you?”
“1 I cannot repeat it. Miss Marsh
let me implore you to say no more.
Let ns go back.”
"No.” she replied. “I will tell you
what they said. They told you that I
—I am—ah in love with you?”
“They were mistaken!” I cried, still
willing to spare her.
“G*s. they were,” she responded
calmly.
i gasped and leaned back in my
chair
"l hey told me,” she said, “that yon
were in love with me.”
A bitterness of humiliation ff< oded
my soul,
“I have no doubt they meant well,”
she said.
“Ob, there is no doubt of that,” I
agreed sourly.
““Perhaps they thought they might
make a match between us thst way.
“i miDg married couples are alwavs the
ousiest matchmakers. And really, do
>ou know, I think they showed some
knowledge of poor human nature iu
this instance, at any rate?”
.She smiled. 1 felt too sick to smile.
“'I am sorry,” said she, “if vou feel
at till hurt by this revelation of truth.”
Then 1 saw the absurdity of my po
>ition, and summoned my sense of
humor to the lescue. It was not pos
sible to remain insensible to Miss
Marsh’s magnificent command of her
own dignity.
*‘l was a fool,” said I.
““I too," said she. ““Rut it does not
matter, now it is all over, does it?”
And, anyway, nobody will know. Wo

‘“1 am afraid you must think me
rather a conceited ass, Miss Marsh?’’
"Don’t be silly,” said she: “yon l
thought as 1 did.”
““Rut with less reason.” said 1, bow
ing.
She looked reproachfully at me.
“1 have been sincere with you, Mr.
vVroughtmght.”
“That is why I pay you compli
ments. 1 want to restore the balance
of things.”
• We seem to understand each other
uoxv. 1 thought we might be friends,’’
said she.
She gave me her hand and I clasp

that absurd interview my very body

“MARKED BOWN.’
ffce Wise Shopper Know* Ja How
to Take Advantage of Tfcls
Situation.
The phrase “marked down" has great
fascination fur women. This is not dis
creditable to their hearts, for while
one-tenth may hunt bargains hoping to
shine thereby in finery they ei uld not
afford at first cost, the other nine
tenths are merely straining their
nerves a little more in the effort to
make their husband's earnings go even
further, and provide yet more liberally
for him, homo and the children, says
the Gentlewoman.
But women's hearts often play sorry
tricks with their heads.
1 here are many kinds of “bargains. '
Some are real. Many are spurious.
Merchants are human and therefore
fallible. They are in business to make
money for themselves, not for y our ben
efit or mine. Just remember this when
you go bargain hunting.
Discriminate.
T ake advantage of the mark down on
goods yon need that are worth buy ing
Let all others alone, if you truly w ish to
be economical. The greatest reductions
in price generally are on pronounced
styles that are rapidly going out of
fashion and will soon be noticeably odd
and out of date.
Buy as cheaply always as voi ran
buy good qualities. But don’t be mis
led by grandiloquent statements into
buying poor goods at any price, and
when a “tremendous mark down"
-tares you in the face be sure there is
some excellent reason for the drop it;
price. Perhaps the reason does not pre
vent the article being a good bargain
for you. Often the reason of the reduc
tion is one that makes the article no
bargain for anvone.
LUCKY DEUCE OF SPADES.
\ Komn rkalile linn of Luck, Bui
II At as* AI! for the Other
One by one tlie old super?!itions are
being torn from n>. Ik-oph l nowadays
walk ostentatiously under ladders and
suffer no evil consequences. Fridav is
quite a popular day for the commence
ment of a long journey, and sitting
down 13 at dinner is frequently nnat
tended with untoward results. A deep
ly rooted superstition among card play
ers is a belu f in tlie lucky propi rties of
the two of spades. The present writer - !
faith, however, was severely shaken by
a phenomenal coincidence which oc
curred only a few days ago. says the
London Mail.
Sitting down to a game of whist, he
thoroughly shuffled both packs of
cards, and happened to notice that the
two of spades was the bottom card of
one of the packs.
“This ought to bring me luck," he re
marked to his friends.
He then took up the second pack, and
was astonished to find that the two of
spades was also at the bottom of that
Words failed to express his amazement
when, in drawing for partners and deal
—the cards had been shuffled again—he
once more drew the two of spades.
The odds against this triple event oc
curring must be enormous, but more
was to follow. The deal fell to the wi it
er, and the turn-up card was the in
evitable two of spades!
After this the dealer felt justified in
believing he was in for a good evening
Asa matter of fact, he lost six rubbers
in succession.
BAZIN’S ROLLER SHIP.
Cost Over One Hundred Tlionmind
Dollars to Disprove a \evv Idea
An Xavibration.
Bazin s roller ship, which cost over
SIOO,OOO to test an entirely new idea in
navigation, has rtecnt!y been snid ;.t
Hull. England, and will be tii.-mantiei
and broken up. according to the Sk. tch.
Bazik’s central idea of laciiitatii.g vhi
chip’s progress by rolling over the wa
■ t.r instead of turcir.ga pa .-agi through
it was just one of thc.-e pro bit ins which
-an be solved only by a full-sized trim
and the maritime world is indi bud to
him for definitely set'ing al rest fo
all time the impossibility of attaining
any notable impro ement in sited or
stability by the adoption of the roller
principle. The six hollow rollers art
uuout 35 feet in diameter and 12 fet I
thick; the shape closely resetr.bh s two
saucers having the edgis joined U
gether. About one-quarter of each
roller is submerged; no part of tlu
hull of the vessel touches the water.
The deck, about 130 teet long and 44
feet wide, is elevated cons idem b4x
above the water line and carries tlu
superstructure devoted to passengei
accommodation and maehini ry spaces.
1 he method of propulsion is the usual
screw, rotating in an inclined position
between the rollers and driven hv a
500-horse power engine; the rollers
also possess independc nt tr.ut iv j -,wer
in the form of a smader eng , e ecn
; nected to each pair. L’nfort unateiy. ou
trial the ship hardly realized half the
, speed anticipated.

inoculation ft r the prevention or miti
gate a of smallpox, and vaccination,
which is the grafting of cowpox, as a
protection ng ii.st the severer malady.
Inooti aii: . was practiced by Turks.
Greeks. Syrians and Circassians long
before Lady Mary Worthy Montague
brought ir to England. It was after
this that J nner made his so-called dis
covery of vaccination or inoculation
with virus from the cow instead of
from the human subject. There is.
however, not the slightest doubt that
true vaccination in this sense was long
ago Known to and practiced by the Hin
doos as a previ ntive smallpox, because
