Rut although many had wen the out side of that hook, to none had it been permitted to look within. Did I say to none? Well, on one memorable x'nioii another pair of eyes as well as Mr. Nestoyn's had look ed upon a p:iffe f that prwiotw vol umeanother hand had written one word within. And this is how It tttme about: Mr. Nestoyn was a bachelor. He was he is one no longer. It is doubt ful whether he keeps a note-book now. There was a tradition among his friends that some years a sjo, when Dick Xesioyn was quite young, some trouble connected with a romance came into his life. What actually happened none knew exactly, except that the romance had adisitj-trousending, and the trouble changed a bright, rather careless lad into a s'rietly methodical man, with a very strong objection to Hie scciety of women. He lived a quiet, uneventful life in a well-appoiuted house iu a rivt-raide sub urb. Methodical and monotonous each day came and weut, one day much the same as another an early rising, a lonely breakfast, a short walk to the station, iMfrfcihlv a chat with a friend in the train on the rapid journey to tendon, a few hours of not very interesting work at the ofliee, and then the return to the lonely houe. And so Mr. Nestoya'a life went on, the monotony slightly broken occasion ally by Lis dining with some of his bachelor friends at their rooms, or by giving a recherche little dinner at his well-ordered, though slightly prim sub urban residence. To these dinners only the unmarried were invited, for if among the select circles that Mr. Nestoyn honored with his friendship any one took unto him self a wife, thenceforth that man was Mr. Nestoyn's frieud no longer. Acquaintance he might tie, for Mr. Nestoyn did not go to the length of tot returning a nod or holding a few words of conversation with a former frieud who had married, but never again would he be asked to partake of a din ner at the Willow, nor from theuee; forth did Mr. Nertovn darken the doors of that man's residence. Rut to every rule there is an excep tion. Just as Phil Marsden, Mr. Nestoyn's chief crony, was wondering what line his friend would take when he (Phil Marsden) should have worked up his practice so as to feel justified in making an offer of marriage to a certain charm ing widow, Jack Cranborne, appareutly the most determined bachelor of the whole set, suddenly announced that his banns were to be published at the par ish church on the very uext Sunday And all round the little coterie went the whisper: "Now Dick Nestoyn will give up Jack Cranborne.'" Rut, strange to say, Dick Nestoyn did not give up Jack Cranborne when he had a wife. He used to say, by way of excuse, that Mrs. Cranborne was not like other women. Whv he said or thought this no one could understand, the general opinion lieiug that Jack Craubome's wife was very much like other women So it came t pass that many a pleas ant hour was spent by Mr. Nesto;-n at Riverside, the home of Jack aud Violet Cranborne. Oue evening just as he was turning into the gate of that snug little dwell ing, he was accosted by Phil MaMdeD, who began in a commiserating tone "I really grieve for you, Mr. Nestoyn I B'Jppo your visits to Riverside will he in abeyance for a time." "How so?" queried Nestoyne. "My dear fellow, surely you have beard that Mrs. Cranborae's sister is . coming to-morrow to pay ner a long visit?" "Oh! ah! yes! I have heard some thing aliout it, but lu what way does it concern me?" Well, you, as a professional woman luitiT. can scarcely ko constantly 10 a house where a young and lively girl is staying; it would w norrioiy uicou jiistetiL "Miss Elaine Montgomery may be neither young nor lively." "PoK-ibly, no," returned the doctor, as he turned away with a chuckle at the familiar way in whieh Nestoyn had pronounced the lady's name. The very next day the two friends happened to meet again not far from Riverside. "Snrelv vou are not going to the Cranborne's to-day? The sister only arrive about an hour ago," began Phil Marsden. "Well, you see," answered the other, "Jack will like a quiet pipe with me. It will serve as au excuse for hint to eet awav from the women's chatter o - ing." A few days later, as Mr. Nestoyn was wtnrninsr home from town, carrying a basket of the choicest tl iwera, whom should he see on the platform but Mars den. Avoidance was impossible, so he bravely made the best of it, and ad vanced toward the doctor, greeting him with these words: "You will come to my picnic on Sat urday, eh, Phil ?" "Your picnic on Saturday ? You go ing to give a picnic you? No, I think not; bachelor picnics are not to my mind." "Rut I am inviting Mrs. Reechcroft." "Are you? Rut she won't come. She is very paiticular, and would, I am sure, object to being the only lady." Rut fehe won't be. Others are 'com ing; at anv rate, they have been in vited." "That is to say, Mrs. Crauboraeand her M -ttr?" Yes, they have been invited, aud others," replied Mr. Nestoyn, with dig nity. Iu the meantime the subject of Mr. Nestoyn's jiicuic was being discussed at Riverside. "Do you" really mean to accept the in vitation, Elaiue?'' asked Mrs. Cran borne, anxiously. "Certainly I do. Why should I ut when I firmly lielieve this picnic Is be ing given solely on my, at any rate, on our account?" "That is just it, I do wish, dear, you would lie careful. Is it not cruel to en courage Mr. Nestoyn ?"' "And, pray, why should Mr. Nestoyn uot lie encouraged?'' questioned the young sister, with a merry gleam in her dark eves. Rccause I have heard that years ago he had a dreadful disupjiointineiit. Jack says he was treated very badly, and that all the trouble changed him and made him what he is so unlike other people. I don't know what the eoni-equenee of another 'allaire du coeur' would lie." "Most probably to him all the good in the world. What a delightful addi tion it would make to that note-book of his! How I should like to look Into It! Have you ever seen Inside it, Violet?" "Oh, dear, no, and no one else." "Well, I want to go to this picnic, and I am going." And to Mr. Nestoyn's picnic weut Mi.-s Elaine Moulgoiuery. So did the Cranliornes, Dr. Marsden, Mrs. Riech- croft and her two pretty sisters, and the whole set of Mr. Netoyu's bache lor frieuds, and every one of them had either a sister or niece, who were eacli aud all very w illiug to joiu the party, The weather, like everything else at that picnic, was all that it should be, and as the party was returning home each individual declared that never l- forc had he or she spent so pleasaiit a day. There was to lie a supper at the Willows as a finale. All the guests save one bad gone on in advance. That one. Miss Elaine Montgomery, with Mr. Nestoyn by her side, was slowly wending her way up the hill thut led to the Willows. They were both silent.

Oue French minister of war has been fouud who will do his duty. He is General de GaUifct. With this man at the helm in the beginning the Dreyfus affair would never have become the scandal of Europe. With the Marquise de GaUifct as mimster of wr the fa mouse bordereau would never have lieen forged. Now, w ithin a few weeks, he has wrought order out of chaos in the Dreyfus case. And yet no soldier has loved the "honor" of the army more bravely or fought more bravely to defend it than De Gallifet. Du Gallifet was retired in lS!i at 67 years of age. He felt the blow very much. "The army j wis my family, my work, my ouly ' satisfaction; now the sooner I die the better," he ex claimed. He did not dream that his greatest work was yet to come with the appoiutinent as minister of war. Fate has delighted in providing op portunities for Gallifet. He fought la France, in Russia, in' Italy, In Mexic-o. He was one of the figuresof the second empire, the most brilliant general- of the third republic; when his career finds its historian the writer will un fold a long recital of fabulous feats, of extraordinary love alliirs, wild wagers, insane duels, incredibly sensel-sis chal lenges to death. It is said if De Gillifet that his phys ical ex i.-tciiee is to-day a work of art. Thirty-live years ago he came to Mex ico to fight for Maximilian. In a bat tle at Puebla, De Gallifet's abdomen was torn open w ith a shell. Calmly pressiug his hat Into the terrible wound he made his way to the ambulance. The gallant general came back to France with a silver door on that side of him w hich w as never turned away from a foe the fatuous silver shield made necessary by his wound. "Silver-bellied Gallifet" has been his nick name ever since. Rut he weut on dueling and fighting as ever. During one of his engage ments a spent ball rattled against his silver shield. "They'll have to use armor-piercing shells if they want to kill me," he lainrhed to an officer w ho stood near by. One year later, at an ofiicial dinner u Paris, Napoleon III was saying that ilver was getting cheaper and cluaper, when Gallifet exclaimed: 'Ah, that's w hy ar prime minister is so sad. He lent iop some money re eently, and he know s that my plaque is his only security." tH EL WITH CAPTAIN LOI RDEY. As a boy Gallifet wanted to enter SL Cyr, the West Point of France. His tnarouis father protested. The young man, not to be balked of his career, eu tered the First Hussars a private. De Gallifet the lieutenant-promotion came ouicklv oue night scaled the walls of his barraeks to play Romeo to some Juliet of his garrisou town. The bal cony was on the third story, but Ro meo, by the aid of vines, cornices, ana a friendly lightning rod-above all, by dint of previous practice- reached it safely. His captain was there, Captain Lour- dey. The name is remembered only as the name of a man killed by Galliret The horrible duel they fought with cav alry swords has remained legendary Gallifet was almost hacked to pieces. They carried him away with an arm cut to the bone, his right flank open and with another murderous gash from his left shoulder to his riirht side. Rut he had killed his man. Noble exploits were Gallifet's in the rather ignoble Crimean war. Said an Enclish colonel to him: "Th re is not a man in our army who does not wish you wer at the head of one of our reg intents." It was Gallifet who led the historical assault on the Green hill, and wou by his gallant couduct a decoration upon the battle-field. "We're lost ! Now, Gallifet, a last etrort for the honor of our arms!" cried General Ducrot at Sedan. "Anything you order, general," re plied Gallifet, wiping his bloody sword on his sleeve. Colonel Gallifet led the terrible charge, drawing cries of admi ration from Risinarck, the king of Prussia, and the German military staff. In the melee he lost bis cap. As he galloped hack with what remained of the Third Light cavalry, Gallifet with the point of his sword picked up from the field a general's kepi, which he planted on his bead, saying to Ducrot: "I deserve it, don't I?" A few days after he sent a request for an interview with the imperial pris oner and signed it "General de Galli fet." Napoleon III wrote opposite that dariDg signature, ' Granted." Rut the republic had already been proclaimed, and Gallifet had to win the title a second time. EXPERIENCE WITH THE COM M I'NE. From captivity in Germany Gallifet weut home to command part of the army of Versailles to fight French men. The Paris commune, backed by the rough element of a great city, defied the national power. One morn ing President Thiers said to Gallifet: "Take four squadrons to the bridge of the Rergeries. You can capture there three or four hundred national guards; they do not expect attack so soon." As the general drew near the Rerger ies, instead of three or four hundred he found three or four thousand soldiers waiting. He could not withdraw. Rut he kept moving forward; and suddenly came the saving idea. He stopped his troop and called to his aid-de-camp, Lieuteuantd'Harcourt, "Fol low me." Quite alone, they advanced at a leis urely trt, The insurgents deployed in a half-circle to capture them. And no captive lived. Lieutenant d'Harceurt lit a cigarette aud said: "General, have a smoke; we'll never return from this." When they came within bearing the colonel of the communards demanded "What do you want within our lines?'

When at last the national troop3 over powered the commune -there was no quarter. It was as De Gallifet had promised.

A month or two ago, a doctor -was called in to attend a boy whose ear had been completely bitteu off by a vicious horse. The surgeon determined to try and replace the ear, as failure to do so could not result in a worse deformity. The missing ear was duly found and hauded to the doctor, who was theu engaged in bathing the severed part In warm water. He had neither instru ments nor dressings with him, and as the half-hour's delay to obtain them uionl.l have been fatal to success he stitched the ear in its place again with a common needle and thread.

Her husband was in a mine elevator when the machinery broke, and he went crashing to the hot torn of the shaft to be crushed to jtlly at the end of his fall. The following year the seventh hus band, Rey Costillo, a young Mexican, undeterred by the fate of the previous six, with passionate fiery fervor, vowed that he would break the fatal charm that surrounded her life and in spite of her warnings succeeded in inducing Marie Prieto Casselia Harris Helmuth back of the break and press with a hot iron.

Good appetite and good digestion, strong nerves and perfect health take the place of these diseases. Hood's SarsaOSrilla is Amer ica's Greatest Medicine and the best that money can buy. The Aroostook (Maine) Pioneer prints the following story of Indian shrewdness: Some river-drivers were working on the west branch of the Aroostook. The logs had jammed into a nasty snarl, and no one hankered for the job of going out with a cant-dog to start the key-log. In the crew was an Indian noted for his c xilness and skill. The boss finally looked over in his direction. "Coot," he said, "go and break that jam, and I'll see that you get a nice puff in the paper." The redskin looked at the logs and then at the boss. "Dead Injun look nice on paper!" he grunted, and walked away. Hood's Pills cure biliousness, headache. sic k speak almost perfectly.
