"tiood Lord!" I ejaculated la die far having come to this good old southern luw,i to spend the winter quietly compiling ami classifying data tor a work I waa engaged on, I expeeled to spend moKt of my umruinga ami evenings tn the atudy 1 had instructed llarrta to have fitted up for me. That waa before 1 was aware of the musician next door. Well, if he gave music lessous. playing beside Uedelhoven und Bach by the hour, 1 would simply have to move out, thut Vffjg all there was to It.

And yet. these spacious old rooms, i ('modeled und so graciously rcininiatent of times and days long past, hail taken a strong hold on my funcy, and I would certainly leave them with reft "I think the old gentleman goes out to give his lensons, sir. 1 see him pass with his iolin case every day," Harris explained, lighting the candle, placed in bronze candelabra again I the wall. I insisted on their being used, be cause the light mingled pleasantly with tlie gna and softened it. Who eures for any but the old maslers, tf once familiar with their sublime inspirations. 1 thought, lazily enjoying the glorious strains.

Monsieur Danliert's sonatas carried me pleasantly bail; to Heidelbnrg and Lelpeic, aad my university days, and in the light curl of smoke, going

up from my cigar to the faded frescoes of the ceiling, I seemed to see the laughing: face of a certain little baronness. who certainly taught me more and better German thun the professors did. l'.ach and Handel, and those days of youthful love und folly, nnd the lighthearted joy all came back on the rip pllng notes. It was late when Hon stetig Dnubert closed his Erard with a bang. Brushing away the pleasant old memories, ; nd getting up from my easy chair, I prepared to follow his example and tro to bed. "It won't be so unendurable," I thought, tha moonlight sonata still ringing In my ears, "provided he doe an I give music lessons." Things never torn out as they are expected to, which of course makes tha turpi! es of joy and anguish which go to make up human existence.

I unconsciously grew to wait Im

patiently for those pleasant evening

hours of practice on the piano by my

next-door neighbor.

It seemed to me when I had lived for softe months In mv beautiful old

rooms, from whose balcony a distant

limpse of crowded shipping along the river front was visible, and into whose recesses the wind wafted

scents of sweet olive and other w inter

blossoms from a square uearuy, as the early spring came, und the BOOTS on the balcoiiy were thrown open, 1 crew to imagine 1 could read the

There was neither strength nor

at mv absurd interpretation of imag

pages of music.

Monsieur Daubert grew flushed ami decidedly voluble, and enjoyed the Yqt:eni and Koederer Harris poured all to liberally in the glasses. He became communicative when coffee and lipnors were placed on the table, nnd Harri went out. , "It was sad to be a poor fellow, playing nightly in an orchestra, when tortnerly there had been so much wealth His manner was that of his ancestor, .lean Pierre Bauveur d'Au

I took out my pap-rs and manu

script and p pared for soma feoan of solid work. Hello, how did Monsieur Hauben get back so soon ? Well, that waa hi business. 1 was glad of the cause, whatever It waa. I put down pen and pencil, aad prepared to enjoy mjr usual coart, as the light fingers rippled over a pre

lude, all the more so. that soon at lagsM would reign in the room aext door. Bitting in a dimly lit room, dago to the open door of the balcony, and looking out at a flood of moonlight,

resting calo aud white over the quiet old street and ancient buildings, my neighbor's melodies came like the farewell of one long known, whose absence would leave a strange void. it was fast approaching the hour when Monsieur usually left off play ing. A cab, rapidly driven, stopped he fore the front door. There were voices, hurried aiopg and a alight cry. and that indefinite commotion which indicates trouble of some sort. I rnn down Htairs and asked the driver what was the matter. "One of the musicians at the French iqiera got into a little trouble." the man explained. "Nothing much, only there had been Mune stabbing. He was brought bome bv bis friends, lie had been drlnldng. He'd be all right n the morning." Two men coming out of my neigh

bor's door, speaking volubly In

French, corroborated the man's state

ment.

I went bnek, turned on the elec

trie lights and prepared for an BOUT or two of bard work, wondering over what seemed rather inexplicable.

It was quite late when there was a

light, hurried knock at the door.

'I'm afraid he is very ill. He Is ao

restless, and he does not recognize

said, gently taking Alma's hand and leading her away.

Of all the vagaries of women, the worst are those little superstitions about opals und new moons, or the belief in for.unes. which leads them to spefd money that an ill looking

We are, all of us, very susceptible to suggestion; to suggest nn Illness or a trouble is often to bring it about, or at least to make somebody miserable through worrj-ing over it. We are that which we think we are. and to look for ills is to find them. We have troubles enough without adding to them imaginary ones.

of the railroads to control either

or both of them. With the merger company holding a majority of the stock of the three railroads such aa attempt MM prevented. The entire in teres of the public of the states through which the railroada run is the reasonableness of the rates on passengers and freight, aad th a question is not settled by the merger

decision but rests on the action of tha

interstate commerce commission as it

has ior vesrs gone by. It is therefore useless to raise the hopes off the customers of the railroada involved, by making them believe that a great victory Las been gained, when the fact remains that no material advantage has been gained, except the principle involved that competing lines of railroads cannot be merged.
