“He! Who?” “John—John Tinsdale. O, I don’t wonder —now that I’ve seen you!” Marion opened the door of the ladies’ parlor hastily and drew the other woman aside. Gently she forced her into a chair and, drawing another before it, took the cold, lifeless hands in her own. “Now,” she said, steadily, “tell me who you are. Not his wife?” “No, but —we have been engaged for eight years.”

The saleswoman at the dress goods counter looked up with a bright smile as the overdressed young woman approached. “Well, Pearl!” she exclaimed, “I wondered why you didn’t come in some time. How are you?” The overdressed young woman smiled in a constrained way. “I’m pretty well, thank you,” she said softly. “I’d like to look at some of your albatross cloth, if you please.” The cordial manner of the girl at the counter changed. Her smile faded. “What price V” she asked, sharply. "I want something good, in a pink.” “Here’s a pink at 35 cents.” “Pet me look at the piece on that shelf.” “Oh, you wouldn’t want that; that’s 50 cents a yard.” The overdressed young woman bit her lip and frowned; but, recovering, said: “No, that wouldn't do. Show me a little better quality, please.” “Would GS cents be too high a price for you?” asked the girl at the counter. “I suppose it would.” “You needn’t suppose anything of tire kind.” said the other tartly. “Let an<■ see the (58-cent goods.” “Maybe you’d like something better than that?” suggested the girl at the t L-'-lT* ■ . ■■■ ■ . . . ■. r--.--.-r .■

I • ain’t stuck up because I quit my job and got somebody to marry me. Did ; you say you wanted pink, ma’am?” “That’s what I said.” “Well, we haven’t a pink In that ’ quality. You might find a remnant down in the basement.” The overdressed young woman tossed her head and moved languidly i away. “She didn’t make much out of you,” observed the wrapping girl. “Who Is she?” “Used to work here,” replied the girl at the counter, “Hy, but she thinks she’s some now! I turned down the feller good and hard before he got to going with her. I guess that’s why she came around here and tried to put on so much agony over me. She’d look well In pink, too, wouldn’t she? Oh, some people make me awful tired!”— Chicago Daily News.

The tears rose quickly in Marion Sohueler’s eyes. “O, my dear! That is a long time to wait for happiness,” she said breathlessly. Her own engagement might have been counted by as many weeks. Her hold upon the small, work-worn hands tightened. e “Indeed, indeed, it is not as you think,” she said earnestly. “I knew at the time that my speaking to Mr. Tinsdale' as X did last Sunday meant more to him than I could understand.

Possibly she was the only one who even tried to follow him as he plowed bis near-sighted, nervous way through after page of manuscript. And possibly, also, three months before she might not have done so, but the song of the springtime was singing itself in Marion Schueler’s heart, and the Jibunda.nce of her happiness overflowed in pity for those less blessed thafi herself.

The Fable of Four Men.

“I got oft a street car this morning.” said a doctor to me, “and, being in no hurry, I began moralizing on the actions and probable character of three men who had alighted just ahead of me. The first one was even then halt way down the block and was going on with such rapid strides that he had already put a couple of hundred yards between himself and the next man. ‘There,’ thought I, ‘goes a hustler —a man who’s bound to succeed in life.’ The second man was walking rather slower, and impressed me as one who would do fairly well, perhaps, in this world. But the last fellow was just dawdling along In the most shiftless sort of way. I very quickly set bios down for a loafer.

Arriving at a Verdict. Kushequa, Pa., Aug. l.—(Special.)— In this section of Pennsylvania there is a growing belief that for such Kidney Jiseases as Rheumatism and Lame Jack there is only one sure cure and that is Dodd’s Kidney Pills. This belief grows from such cases as that of Mrs. H. L. Davison of this place. She tells the story herself as follows: “I have suffered from Rheumatism for thirty years and find that Dodd’s Kidney Pills have done me more good than any medicine I have ever taken. I was also bothered with Lame Back and I can only say that my back hasn’t bothered mo since I took Dodd’s Kidney Pills.” Considering that Mrs. Davison only took two boxes of Dodd’s Kidney Pills, the result would be considered wonderful if it were not that other# are reporting similar results daily. Kushequa is fast arriving at a verdict that “Dodd's Kidney Pills are the one sure cure for Rheumatism.”

HAIR IS AFFECTED. Londoners Who “Go” Gray and Black Again Within a Few Hours. Not only is “emotional” hair well known to medical specialists, but every hairdresser of experience recognizes ifURtSfeatly in connection with his own customers, says a writer in Tit-Bits. With some peculiarly constituted people the hair is affected by every passing emotion, and not only does it reach the extremes of crispness or limpness within a very few hours, but it varies in color vastly. This latter peculiarity is so well recognized by every hairdresser that some members of that calling are prepared to say definitely of a given regular customer, “Blank is not well, or he has wane great trouble oh his mind just now.” Many a man who appears exceedingly gray on one day is comparatively dark-haired the next, and cases are known where the single white locks of hair t<hat sometimes are found on a head otherwise wholly black have disappeared almost entirely and then, come again. That is to say, the white tuft has gone almost black like the surrounding hair,. and has then become quite white again, and so on. We all know what use Shakspeare and other dramatists and poets have made of the influence of emotion upon human hair, but one of the most celebrated detective inspectors now at Scotland Yard said to the writer in regard to this very subject:

■ No one would be biased for or feainst him. If anyone, even a ...Je |iild. said afterward that lie had helpid him he would keep on. If not—|His eyes grew hard and bright with jitter certainty as the people moved Jowly out. . Then he became suddenly [Ware that someone stood beside him. ; It might have gone hard with John Pinsdale just then if 10 years of love md allegiance to another woman had lot run like a bright thread through ns life, for the girl who had come forvanl to speak to him was the very emlodi merit of beauty and happiness. “Mr. Tinsdale,” she said eagerly, “I vant to thank you so much for what rou said this morning. 1 really think rou were sent here to save me from lecoming selflshly absorbed in—my iwn—joy.”

Shellfish as Traps. The familiar story of a mouse being trapped by a live oyster, though curious, is not the only Instance of the kind. The great naturalist, Frank Euckland, records the story of a rat which was caught by the same apparently harmless shellfish. Some years ago a common rail was found dead on the shores near Penzance. Its beak was tightly caught In the clutches of an oyster, which was still alive. The bird and oyster were removed and mounted. An even more leer case was that of a small salt

Two of the best-known hairdressers in London have assured the writer that they have customers who go gray and black again within a few hours. One instanced the case of a financial magnate who came to grief and was tried for fraud. During the proceedings he went iron gray, but directly he had been acquitted his hair returned to its normal color—of course, quite without any artificial means. Another strange fact is that there are a comparatively limited number of people whose hair will ever fake any dye, no matter what It may be, sucessfully and thoroughly. Bottle after bottle of hair dye may be expended upon It, hut It will never take any pigment properly.
