One would expect the gods to weep at the spectacle of Hymen waiting, cap in hand, for the peace commission to untangle itself from a web of red tape. But fiince his waiting ended in a happiness so much the keener for being long deferred, weeping would be outyW order. ''But suppose there should be war between my country and yours?"

It was in the early part of this year, when men were talking of nothing butwar. May Frances Cronin, the daughter of a rich widow whose home is at 1Q5 South Second street, Williamsburg, had just confessed that she returned the love of Louis Philippe Nebofc, lieutenant in the Spanish army of occupation in Cuba. But the warcloud hovered ovor her thought of happiness.

He was ft very learned young man, this Spanish lieutenant. He knew his Shakespeare like a book. But Miss Cronin shook her head when he talked to her of the Montagues and the Capulets and pointed out how Romeoand Juliet loved each other in spite of war. "You might kill somebody I know," she said, "the brother of some school friend, my cousin, my neighbor's son." •'I must do the bidding of the little king," he said gloomily. "You would despise mo otherwise," "Of course, and wo must wait. Do not again speak of marriage till this cloud has passed."

And so tho lieutenant went back to Cuba with his father, who owns large planta tions on tho island., And tho international situation was to no one more agitating than to him and a certain very charming girl in Williamsburg.

tho newspapers for news of her sweetheart and onomy, but Spanish lieutenants did not happen to be doing anything likely to got their names in tho American papers.

Louis Philippe Nobot fought bravely, just as his comrades did—bravely, but unfortunately. And, like his comrades, he reoolved small recognition from his bnnkrupt, fatherland. Wlion the fighting stopped, his pay was long overdue. There was great discontent in the regiment. The subalterns had reason toHuspect that their major was withholding money from them

Nobot went to the major one day and demanded pay. The major retorted with an insult, and the young man struck his superior in tho face.

Knowing that this meant death and a hrokeii heart in Williamsburg, the lieu tenant fled and went into hiding. Tho British consul heard about the girl in \VU liamsburg and unollicially helped the fugitive to escape from Havana in a fruit steamship flying the British flag. "But the peace commission is a tedious affair," urged Louis Philippe Nobot. "And everylxKly knows that thero will lx) Ho more war. Spain, poor Spain, can fight no longer." "Peace has not boon declared yet," replied Miss Cronin. "Wo must still wait It is truo that you are a fugitive, but if yo\ir country needed men to fight for her 1 would not have you recreant."

And so tho work of tho peaco commission became of absorbing importance to those two young people. They followed tho reports day by day, bonding their heads together over tho papers, alternately elated and depressed as tho stories foreshadowed early agreement or continued dissension.

Tho rest is easy to tell. Miss Cronin gave an order to her dressmaker as soon as word camo that tho treaty had been signed, and the dressmaker went in search of white taffeta and orange blossoms. And on a Sunday night the two young people wore married by tho Rev. Father Malone in tho Church of SS. Peter and Paul.— New York Journal.

When Beauty t»i«ftppenr«. It is stated on good authority that the famous beauties of Paris disappear entirely at intervals and not a word is hoard from them for weeks. They then emerge from their retirement positively d&taling in nppoarwiw. These incidents usually occur *t tho close of a summer's sojourn at the seashore, when milky skins have acquired freckles and too. With a stock of health and strength gained in the outer air a beauty can go to her hiding place, put herself into tho hands of massage experts and specialists and revel in milk and cologne baths, oils ami creams, applied night and day to the skin, and secret processes which make tho skin like white satin or velvet.

Sometimes the retirement comes at the end of tho winter season, when tired lines have begun to appear about the eyes and mouth, to add years to theirag*». Host' would do something In such cases but the renovating process is horned by the oxpensive treatment which only possible to women with bottomless purses*

TERRE

in her career, and she calculates that die has saved many dollars in doctors' bills by her one day's rest in every week.

It is necessary for every woman to work out her own salvation. There is no vanity in quietly sitting down and studying oneself—it is duty pure and simple. A machine is cared for so that it will do the 1 beet service. Why not bestow the same care upon the body, which is the most remarkable piece of machinery in the whole wide world? It would be considered gross carelessness to neglect fuel and oil when an engine is kept working at full speed. It would be considered wasteful if the power was not turned off at regular intervals to remove the accumulations which the working makes possible. But the body and brain are expected to keep up a perpetual round of toll without any of the attention which is bestowed upon the ordinary machine. Is it good reasoning?— Philadelphia Times.

A Word on Extravagance. It is so easy to fall into ways of extravagance, and so v^ry hard to extricate oneself when once caught in the web. It winds about one, and binds hand and foot, till, in many cases, all struggles become vain, and then comes the crash.

Perhaps this thought is not more applicable to woman than to man, but it is believed that women are often at the bottom of many financial failures because of their extravagance, and so it will certainly do no harm to pause and meditate a minute upon tho question of what does and what does not constitute extravagance, and where one may draw the line closer.

Of course, what is extravagance for one woman would be positive economy for another, and every one must cast up her own accounts and decide for herself what she can afford to buy. Thero are but few women who would willfully run their husbands and fathers in debt beyond their means—that is, true women, young or mature, who care for others more than they do for the gratification of their own personal vanity. For it is vanity, after all, that causes most of tho extravagance indulged in by women

They want to dress as well as their neighbors, they want to have just as nice furniture in tho house, they want to entertain as well, and so, tho first thing they know, they have run beyond their allowance, debts begin to accumulate, and the web begins to tighten.

And women may economize without being mean. But they have to give some thought to tho subject, and tho new year is a good time to commence. If a \yoman is well ablo to buy the finest gown in tho oity, then she has a perfect right to do so.! In fact, I bellevo that I rather advocate extravaganco among the rich, for It all tends to make work for thoso who want it, and keeps money in circulation. But for thoso In moderate circumstances the word extravaganco should have a warning sound. They surely should lioware of the web, lest by and by they fall to disentangle themselves from tho results that are so apt to follow indulgence. —Chicago Tribuno.

6lrii, Be Orderly!,

Habit is largely thorosultof cultivation. A girl was novor carelcss in her dross or slovenly in her appcaranco because she was born so, but rather besauso she has cultivated the disorderly part of her nature. With a girl this counts for much more than with a man, declares an exchange. A cravat awry may bo taken as tho Index of genius or an unbrushed coat as the trademark and hall stamp of lofty Intellect, but a soiled shirt waist or a drabbled skirt tells only ono story, and th.it is of carelessness, indolence and lazy negloct

And what is told in tho personal dross of a girl is told also in her surroundings. Hor room will have an eternally mussed up appearance. Her dressing case will bo an opltomo of disorder, her hairbrush and comb will ho unclean, her clothes press will look llko a rag basket instead of being a cheerful, homellko apartment, tho little room where sho must spend her leisure hours and llvo her real life will bo a placo uninviting to her as well as to her friends and lacking in every essential of happiness and comfort.

And tho principal reason why I speak of these things is that order costs nothing Much as it adds to life, there need not l» one cent of expenditure on tho contrary, it will prove to bo money saving. The girl whoso room is Inviting has loss in elination to loave It for the theater or the dance. Tho girl whoso wardrobe is properly and neatly kept will find that at the ond of tho year sho has saved many a dollar in dresses that would have been worn out more by hanging by the binding to ono hook, wrinkled and twisted, than by all tho real usage they have had.

With a place for nothing and nothing in its placej the disorderly girl is constantly called upon to spend money for this and that that she knows she has got somewhere, but doesn't know where it is.— Boston Herald.

fonragcoin Housekeepers. It requires real moral courage to be a good housekeeper. And this is truo not only as regards the affairs of tho kitchen, but the fashions of the parlor as well Who will deny that It needs something more than tact to keep a sharp watch over dishcloths, dish towels and floorcloths, and to Insist In face of an Indignant cook that these must be kept scrupulously clean and in open sight for dally Inspection? But sour and naoldy kitchen cloths are one thing and sanitary draperies another. Whoever saw a "perfectly lovely" interior that was really sanitary as a room furnished according to the requirements of the microbe expert that was coxy looking? It certainly is hard for the young homemaker to forego plush door curtains because they shut out light and air, when all hor preconceived notions of a pretty home Include those same draperies. But then door hangings can be taken down and aired out of doors, so they are not so bad after all. But carpets—there's the rub! It is gradually dawning upon women that sweeping is a dust spreading process Instead of a dust removing process, arid that while the broom may remove the surface dust from a carpet more yet is driven into the nap. The same lovely oarpet also absorbs unhealthy odors, which come from the cellar or bathroom In the form of gases. The dust enemy Is the worst the housekeeper has to vanquish.

Prudden, is one of the books of reference in a study oounae of household economical. And now the prograsdve housewife is finding that there Is a better way than stirting dust up In one place to settle In another. and that If there must be carpets instead of bard wood floors, dm is away of

the neighbors. An English lady redding In China writes: "At the first large dinner party to which I was invited—I went as a bride—I found myself eating with my own brand new knives, forks and spoons. I stared at them very hard." There could be no mistake, for I could see the fresh monograms. "When I reached home I toldmyhusband, rather tremblingly, for I was quite •sure they/ had been stolen. To my amazI ment, he only laughed and said: 'Oh, you will get used to that soon, and when you have too many guests you will find that instead of asking you to gefc more supplies, the butler will just borrow your neighbors' and always make up the deficiency.' "And so it proved. I can well remember once, when my husband had asked eight guests in to dinner, only half an hour before the usual time, that there appeared later a splendid roast leg of mutton as one of our bourses. "Now, I knew we had no mutton, for earlier in the day tho cook had been bewailing the nonarrival of the Shanghai, steamer, by whicfc it always came. Turning to tho gentleman on my left, I asked 'Did your steamer come from Shanghai todav?' ":Ye& Why?' "I looked down to the other end of the table, where my husband was carving the unexpected treasure trove with very evident enjoyment. 'Well, ours did riot,* said I, 'and yet'— "Ho caught sight of the mutton. 'Oh,' he laughed, 'I suppose that is mine. No doubt yours will come tomorrow and probably bo much better, so I shall be the gainer this time, and enjoy it all the more.'

Baby'd Accomplishments. A baby can beat any alarm clock ever invented for waking a family in the morning. Give it a fair show, and it can smash more dishes than tho most Industrious servant girl in tho country. It can fall down oftener and with less provocation than the most expert tumbler In the circus ring.

It can make more genuine fuss over a simple brass pin than its mother would over a broken back. It can choke Itself black in the face with greater ease than the most accomplished wretch that was ever executed. It can keep a family in constant turmoil from/morning till night and night till morning without once varying its tunes. It can bo relied upon to sleep peacefully all day, when its father is down town, and cry all night, when he is particularly sleepy.

It may be the naughtiest, dirtiest, ugliest, most fretful baby in all tho world, but you can novor mako Its mother believe It, and you had better not try it. It can bo a charming and model Infant when no ono is around, but when visitors aro present It can exhibit more bad temper than both of Its parents together.

It can brighten up a house better than all tho urnituro over made, mako sweeter music than tho finest orchestra organized, fill a larger spaco in its parents' breasts than they knew they had, and when ic goes away it can causo a greater vacancy and leavo a greater blank than all the rest of tho world put together. Baltimore American.

Key to Successful Domestic FlnaricIng. §jg',The secret of domestic finance Is to make a little money go a long way," writes Frances Evans in an article,'' About

Mon," In The Ladles' Home Journal "Tho old axiom about saving the pennies and letting the pounds take caro of themselves is not the natural policy of Amer leans. Only the frugal Scotch and French know that rule by heart. But women could learn it bettor thpi men, because their minds dwell more naturally upon llttlo things. If they are raroly great financiers they aro frequoAtly successful small financiers. Make a woman responsible for an allowance, and sho feels tho Interest of a junior partner pay her bills and sho is put on tho footing of an inferior. There is a' feeling of ignominy about asking a man for car fare, 50 cents, f!5 or oven $100, disagreeable Ixiyond expression to a woman with any pride or Independence. Now that wcynen are thinking moro for thomselves than in tho past, independence is becoming naturally a part of their creed. This independence cannot be choked out."

A Perfect Arm.

"I find great difficulty in getting a model with good arms," said a well known sculptor recently. "It is astonishing how few women thero are with arms that conform to tho standard. A perfect arm, measured from the wrist joint to the armpit, should be twice the length of the head. The upper part of the arm should bo large, full and well rounded. There should be a dimple at the elbow. Tho forearm must not be too flat, not nearly so flat as a man's, for Instance. "From a well molded shoulder the whole arm should taper in long, graceful curves to a well rounded wrist. It Is better to have an arm that harmonizes, even if the parts do not conform to tho generally accepted lines. For instance, a full, round upper arm which is joined to a flat or thin forearm has a very bad effect. Perhaps It is only a little worse, however, than a graceful, well molded forearm tacked on to a thin, scrawny upper arm."

The newest tea tables for tho drawing room come now with an oval glass removable tray on the top. The tables are of mahogany with plain inlay. The lower shelf projects several inches more the upper shelf, which holds the tray for the caps and saucers. On either aid of the tray are handles, vrhlch make it easy of removal and carriage.

To keep the month in a healthy condition the teeth should be well brushed every morning and the mouth rinsed out after each meaL It is a good plan to use borax or bicarbonate of soda in the water for cleansing the month, as this tends to counteract the acidity of the saliva, which Is often injurious to the teeth.

Dot and Ditto.

Dot and Ditto quarreled one daj What they quarreled about nobody knows. Dot went into the house, and Ditto staid in the playhouse alone.

By and by Dot grew tired of playing alone, so she thought she would go back to Ditto and "make up." Sho went down to the playhouse and peeped inside, and there he lay on the floor. Poor Ditto had been so dull without Dot that he had fallen asleep.

Dot was disappointed. She did not like to wake him, but she didn't wish tv

play alone. At last she thought of a nice

Next.she brought a bottle of water and a spoon and then—Ditto was waked up after all. She spilled the medicine, and it went down his neck! This was so funny they laughed and forgot their quarreL—Orn Little Folks'Magazine.

Honest Rat*.

Of all curious animals which man has cone across and studied probably none can compare with a kind of rat found in .tho Rocky mountains. Though for a long time well known to trappers and lumber men, It is only lately that any naturalist has studied these peculiar little beasts.

Although called a rat, this little animal is larger than an ordinary rat, with a body eight inches long. It is a very pretty orea ture, with soft gray fur and a squirrellike tail, easily tamed and a delightful pet, The trappers long ago gave it the name oi the "trading rat," from its curious habit of never stealing anything without putting something In its place.

Two young men camping In the high lands of Wyoming left tho lid of their cracker box off one night. In the morn ing all the biscuits were gone and the box was filled with an Indescribable mixture of chips, scraps of leather, sticks, bones, dried beans, in fact everything movable near at hand.

The trading rat builds a very beautiful nest, sometimes two feet in height, and is very clover at storing food. It has a violent fancy for anything of a bright red hue.—Philadelphia Inquirer.

The Agre of an Oyster.

Ho who wishes may find out the exaot age of an oyster, though ho has not the telltale evidence in teeth. The lines in the groove of the hinges of tho shell tell the whole story, each lino representing a year. An oyster is of age at four years—that Is, ho Is old enough to vote, take care of a family and go to market. Going to market is a disastrous undertaking, for a 4-year-old oystor is particularly palatable. By this it must not bo supposed that after an oyster has passed the four layer period and has five, six or even ten wrinkles In his 6hell he is a back number. Indeed there are records of oysters being eaten just after celebrating their thirtieth birth-, day, and in most cases they formed a delicious meal. Thirty is an unusual age for an oystor to attain, because few are given an opportunity to live so long. If loft to onjoy lifo in his own way, it ia quite probablo that tho oyster would become an octogenarian or even centenarian.

Captain Cochrane on his last trip to Fulton market brought In an oyster found on his beds that is believed to be at least 85 years old.—Fishing Gazette.

Desired Reminder.

A small boy who had boon ill for many weeks was well nigh frantic one day when his brothers camo in to tell him about the snow and tho "slido" they had made, the fine coasting on Riverside drive and the joys of snowballing tho inoffensive and passing pedestrian, says tho Now York Commercial Advertiser. The sick boy made awry face, as if ho didn't care at all about snow men and bobsleds and slides, but when tho boys had gone he sighed a big sigh. "Mother," ho said, "would you mind bringing my overcoat in here and putting It on the bed? I think I'd like to see It."

The Three Wishes.

It was down at the orphan asylum one day That three little maids sat round the Are. Each telling the thing she wished for most

If she only could have her heart's desire.

"I'd like a pony as white as snow," Said Maud, "and I'd ride It each day, of course, And people would stop, as I rode along,

And say, 'Look at that child on the snow white horse!'

Said Alkie, "I'd like to own a ship, And I'd sail ctear round the world, guess. And bring back presents for all the girls
