"Here is a story of real life in New
York that makes me proud of my
sex," said the young man who smokes.
"It Is the story of a woman's act of
inhumanity that no man on earth
would be guilty of.
"A widow who had been employed
by a large firm was obliged to give up
her position on account of illness.
She was out of work a long time—so
long that all the money she had saved
was used to support the family. As a
climax to her hard luck one of the
children died. The woman was then
broke, and she went to the cashier of
the firm where she had been employed
and asked for a loan of $25. Ho was
a kindly old chap, and let her have it.
Six months passed and the woman, on
account of continued illness, had been
unable to repay the money. At that.
Stage of the game the cashier's wife
learned for the first ttmc of tho trans
action.
" 'What did she borrow money of
you for?' she demanded.
"Tho man tried to explain, but his
wife refused to see matters in a char
itable light.
" 'She has no right to owo you
money,' she said. 'We need it our
selves. She shall pay it back.'
"Forthwith she instituted a system
of dunning. Three times a week she

for a Loan of $25.
wrote, asking for tho return of the
money. The widow was distracted.
Another child, a cripple, was ill. and
every penny she could scrape together
was needed for actual living expenses.
The cashier tried to plead the wom
an's cause. His family counted money
in tens of dollars where the debtor
counted in cents. He hoped to gain
ov/ixic îiiciiijf ιυι IltJI", Dili ail fllS ΘΪ1- I
treaties only hardened his wife's heart
the more. She was an excellent wom
an, too, mind you, sympathetic in
most of the affairs of life, and gener
ous where her own charities were
concerned, but the mere fact that an
other woman had borrowed money
from her husband turned her into a
regular devil. The widow, being so
hounded, tried to pay the debt a dol- ι
lar at a time. After a few weeks the
man In the case got desperate. He
did what any other man with red
blood in his veins would have done.
He looked the widow up and gave her
another $25.
" 'There are still $18 due on that
first debt,' he said. 'Pay it, for God's ι
sake, and end this muddle, and keep
the other seven dollars for yourself.
If you need more let me know.'
"The next day his wife received a
money order for $18. She didn't need
the money herself, so she turned it
over to a Society of Foreign Missions.
Still, she was satisfied; she had col
lected a just debt, and peace again
reigned in the cashier's household."
ι ne intelligent Bird.
About the time when the papers
were full of the controversy growing
out of the stories of the "nature fak
ers," two negroes in Washington were
overheard discussing the intelligence
of birds in general. "Birds is shore
sensible," observed one darky to the
other. "Yo' kin learn them anything.
I uster work for a lady that had one
in a clock, an' when it was time to
tell de time it uster come out an'
say cuckoo just as many times as de
titne was!" "Yo' doan say so!" asked
the other negro, incredulously.
"Shore thing!" responded the first
darky. "But do mos' wonderful part
was dat it was only a wooden bird, |
too!"—Harper's Weekly.
Peculiar "Sea Smoke."
One of the peculiar phenomena of J
the arctic regions is "sea smoke." Ex
plorers tell of a steam as if from a
boiling kettle which rises from the
water when the temperature is 15 de
grees below zero. At 40 degrees the
snow and human bodies emit this
vapor, which changes into tiny icy
particles which fill the air and make
α light noise like the rustle of silk.
At 40 degrees tree trunks burst with
a loud report, rocks from great cracks
in the earth's surface, knives break
In cutting butter and lighted cigars
go out by contact with the ice upon
the beard.
Gypsy Cave-Dwellers.
The gypsies of Granada, Spain, are
unique among the race as cave-dwell
ers, living in recesses hollowed out
af a hillside cot far from the city.

than mere rule and canon, and they
