The August Smart Sst.
Mrs. Burton Harrison's name has alwa\Ts been identified with particularly entertaining fiction and for many years she has not given us so capital a piece of work as "The Carlyles,'' the long novel which opens the August number of The Smart Set. 11 -is by far her most important story, and is a distinct departure from her former novels. The scenes are laid in and around Richmond, during the stirring days of 1865, and the introduction of several historical events adds greatly to the interest of a splendid dramatic love story. No novelist dealing with the Civil War period has succeeded in creating a more realistic atmosphere or characters more convincing.
Richard Le Gallienne, who is, perhaps, one of the most in-j teresting figures in conteraporary literature contributes to this number an idylic story wherein his delicate art is revealed at its best. "The Butterfly of Dreams'' is the fanciful title he has chosen, and as a mere weaving together of exquisite words

It is an interesting fact in connection with the life of exPresident Moore, of Earlhain College, who just entered upon his last sleep on last Sunday evening, has had only a few opportunities to celebrate birthday anniversaries, as he had the misfortune of being born 1^32, which was leap year, according to the calendar,

"Yes. and there will be a meeting.
you will be defended by this—this .Tolm Jones, and what girl can have a man fight for her protection and not fall
in love with liimV" "Hut, father, has hot our cousin slighted us"? He has been at the university all this time and has never been to see us." "Students at Bonn are not supposed to go gadding. They are there to study." lien* Fleisehman stormed and cursed the day when the Englishman came to town, and his daughter went to her x'ooni in tears. She knew that Mr. Jones would meet the man who had insulted her. and she had not heard that the former was expert with any weapon. She also realized the truth of her father's words. She had liked Mr. Jones, but till his life was periled in her defense she did not know that slit! loved him.
Nothing was heard of Mr. Jones tdl the next afternoon, when Bertha was overjoyed to see him come sailing up the street as though nothing "had happened. But it was evident that something had happened, for he wore his arm in a sling. "Thank heaven." exclaimed Bertha as he joined her, "yon are not killed. 1 liope you have not killed the other!" "No. but he will be in bed long enough to think over his mistake in insulting a lady." "Oh. Mr. Jones, how can I thank you V" "You don't need to thank me. 1 only did what any gentleman would have done under the circumstances." "Do tell me some way by which 1 can show my appreciation of your kindness—the risk you have taken for me." "There is but one way.'' he said, low-
ering his voice, "and that cannot be.''
she replied,
knowing
it was without his felling her.
"Your father has
vUi it
£told
me of your
American cousin." Bertha knew that this was a declaration. She lowered her eyes. "WellV' she said softly. "Two persons cannot possess the same gem." "I wish my American cousin were at the bottom of the sea." "And I were Mr. Maginty. Then we could fight it out."
Bertha smiled. At the same time she did not think Mr. Jones regarded the matter in a serious enough manner. "I shall have to do as my father wishes," she said. "We German maidens are trained to obey our parents in such matters." "Is it your father or you who are to be suited with a husband?'' "i." "Then I see no reason for you io-iiiar ry to suit him instead of yourself." "You taik like ail American. I wonder if my cousin has such remarkable views."
At this point Ilerr Fleisehman entered, sco"*vKn::' at the couple, who were sitting quite close together oil a sofa. "Ilerr Fieisrhman," said Mr. Jones, "we have.been riseussing the German and Ainei.k', methods of proposal for a wife. Fraulehi Bertha prefers the German. I the American. I wouldn't consider a girl worth marrying who would let her father choose a husband for her."
Ilerr Fleisehman turned red with anger, while Bertha looked at her wooer astonished. "1 ask for the hand of your daughter," continued Mr. Jones. "I leave her to choose between me on the one hand and you and this American cousin on the other."
Both men turned to Bertha. She had been captivated by this down treading of established rules and the defense she had received—indeed, the sweeping methods of this novel lover. It was a hard struggle with her to decide between what she considered her duty and a lover who had no respect for established forms, but love triumphed, and she threw her arms around the lover's neck. Ilerr Fleisehman was boiling with rage. "Leave this house!" "Why should I leave a house to iWhieh I have been especially invitedV" said Mr. Jones, with imperturbable coolness. "Invited?" roared Ilerr Fleisehman. "Yes, invited. I've got the invitation right here in my pocket." And he dreW a letter and handed it to Herr Fleiscb-

Italian Brigands.
A German gentleman was one evening riding along the public highway near Imola wr.cn his horse threw him and bolted. lie picked himself up and lighted a match to see what time it was. but found that his watch had stopped. Just at that moment two bicyclists hove in sight, and he went forward, making sign.? for them to stop, but the men pedaled furiously of sight. About two months after the gentleman was reading an account of travel in Italy when he came across the following passage: "One evening we had an adventure with a brigand. We were bicycling near Imola. when an individual in a long dusty cloak suddenly sprang from the ground and with a small lighted torch, which he flourished with furious gestures, demanded our watches. We with great agility, but by the skin of our teeth, avoided the ill into itioned fellow and. shouting that we had no watches, made off as fast as we could. Whether followed or not we did not wait to see."—Home Letter to Fall Mall Gazette.
Tlie Old Man Cactus.
Nature indulges in an occasional joke. There is found growing in the desert region of North America a species of cactus known to botanists as Pilocereus senilis, or the "old man cactus."' There is in this plant a wonderfill resemblance to a human head covered with gray hairs. Tlie piant is slow of growth, and small specimens are more frequent than large ones. The plant is covered with long wliite*4iairs, which completely hide the body or stem of the plant. These hairs are frequently gathered into locks, adding to the resemblance of the frowsy head of an old man. Plants known to be twen-ty-live years old are but a few inches in height, yet specimens are found which are twenty-live feet tall and a foot in diameter, representing, it is believed, the growth of several hundred years. In these gigantic specimens of "old man cactus" the term "old" is quite the most appropriate part of the title.
His Seidlitz I'owder Cartridge. How a man's life was saved by a common seidlitz powder is described by a German physician, Dr. Franck, who was called to treat a man who had swallowed a large piece of tough meat which stuck in his gullet. As it was impossible to dislodge the meat by natural means and as the patient's condition was critical, the doctor tried the etiieaey of the gas which is generated when the constituents of a seidlitz powder are mixed. He directed the man to swallow the two halves of one of tlie powders separately, and the resulting pneumatic pressure, aided by the man, who shut his mouth and closed the nasal passages, was suilicient. to drive the piece of meat out of the gullet into the stomach.
Making Wives Happy.
"It seems to me that the way to make a woman happy is to give her all your sympathy and affection," says Dr. Edward Brooks in Rochester Herald. "As for overlooking any faults, a man ought not to see any faults in his wife. If it does happen that there are a few very patent ones—and I suppose there are some women who are not exactly angels—a man ought not to see them any more than he sees the spots on the sun when it is shining brilliantly in the heavens,' and ho ought to remember that no matter what disillusions he may experience after marriage it Avas he himself who undertook the responsibility of taking to himself a young woman that lie promised to love and honor."'
'.Uuiden Treasure In JHIujsIa ml, In England when hidden treasure is found ihe law requires the coroner to hold an inquest
over
mt
it. Formerly it
was a coroner's duty to hold an inquest in case of a burglary. A suitute of Edward I. decree* that "when coroners are commanded by the king's bailiffs or by the honest men of tlie county they shall go to the daces wfrJTO any lie slain or suddenly dead or wounded or where houses are broken or where treasure is said to be found and shin l'ortliwith command four of tlie next towns, or five, or six, to appear before him in such a place."

In a recent article on Americans an English writer gives the following as a characteristic American after dinner story, its subject being a politician in bathing: "All at once a shark, a man eater, was coming the other way and swam up squarely in front of him. They eyed each other for a moment, and then the shark—blushed and sped away."

Mrs. Hi Uppe—Dear, did you see any of those line old aqueducts while you were in Italy? Mrs. New-Itich—Never seen a duck. And while we was riding across Germany we kept a lookout for some of them German peasants, but I never seen such a scarcity of fowl no place.—Kansas City Drovers' Telegram.
