ROBERT JERMAIN COLE Copyright, 1005, by Hubert Jcrmnlu Colo "Men are such monotonous creatures. They inarch together like that always." The girl waved her band lightly toward a (lie of mllltla that paraded down Fifth avenue. Her companion did not answer Immediately. "You must reduce your complaint to specific charge*. Miss Breen," said the young lawyer at length. "What, for ex...nple, renders man so tiresome to you?" "I'm sure I don't know what makes htm so. I only know that be Is," re turned the girl. "He—l mean they—all ,wear forever the same kind of clothes, walk with the same stride, stick to tho same amusements"— "Are true to the some friends," fin ished her listener for her, "and, worst of all, persist In expressing admiration for tlie same girl In the same words. You must find It monotonous." "Dou't be ]>ersonal, Mr. Roscommon," protested his companion, with a blush. "I am discussing fact, aud that Is al ways personal," replied the man*. "It Is true, Isn't It?" Roscommon had a quiet habit of persistence. He did not talk much, but what be did say was apt to start his companion Into a fran tic garrulity of self defense. "What do you mean?" asked the girl. "You certainly would not accuse me of bragging about the number of my admirers. I was only speaking In a general way." Boscommon was silent, and the girl went on: "I refuse to testify against myself, but you must give me credit for know ing a few other women. Besides, I have read the novels written by crea tures of your own sex. They ought to say a good word for the lugeuulty of man, yet their heroes all make love In precisely the same way." They turned as they walked Into Fifty-seventh street, where Miss Breen had lived with her aunt since her fa ther's death. She had always gone with a rather gay set, but a few months after she came out her father had lost most of his money. For the last three years that be lived be Insisted on her accepting many Invitations, although they were able do little entertaining. Her liveliness of speech and manner, a trifle defiant, masked a hurt pride. She won followers easily among the men— too eaHlly to suit her high spirit. They gave lier flattery In plenty, which com forted her as little as gold offered to a starving woman. She was all heart and had almost no vanity. When her father died she was hungry for some one to lavish her affections upon. Yet no one had divined this. The Impres sion had gone &bout tbat she would marry anybody for money. Sbo bated poverty, out she hated a lie still worse. When they entered the house she took off her hat and stood a moment beßlde a table. "You may sit down,"- she said con descendlngly to Boscommon. "I shall stand up awhile. You haven't made me tired yet." "If you were one of these unvarying men how would you propose ton girl?" asked the young man gravely. Miss Breen promptly sat down. After she bad rested and meditated for half a minute, she answered: "It would depend on the girl. That's the very point. Instead of having a formula, such as you men hand dotfn from father to son, I should study the nature of the woman and find words to appeal to her and to her alone. If she loved flowers, I'd Bpeml my last dime on a rose. They soy a battle was lost onco for want of a horseshoe. More women's hearts are lost for want of a chocolate drop than are dreamed of In your philosophy." "I have no philosophy that will fit the race of women," corrected the law yer. "I'm glad to hear you admit your Ig norancel" laughed Miss Breen. "I did not say I was Ignorant. 1 merely saTd 1 una no theories," ob served Boscommon. "Very well, here Is o fact for yon I know a man that told a girl of his ambition to be a painter. Then be asked her to marry him. Now, this girl didn't care a hairpin tor art, and the only Idea she bad about It was that artists wore always poor anil shabby. She was Just ready to fall In love with him, and If she had It wouldn't have mattered what he did for a living. If he only bad sense enough to tell her how prettily her hair ■hone In the lamplight he wouldn't be a sour old bachelor now, aud she"— "It looks Just as well In the day light," remarked Boacommou, address lug the mirror behind Madge. "I hope the subject doesn't bore you, Miss Breen," he went on, "but you , have made an Impossible condition. t«i M f,* "f»n untold ync w vxl. That is well If he can. But now sup pose the one thing he knows about her Is thnt be wants to know more. Per haps the very mystery of her nature I attracts him." | "Then let htm surprise ber Into some revelatlou of herself," | They wece silent for a loug time aft er this. The short winter duy was nl most gone. Tbey could yet see each ■ other through the twilight. 1 "Miss Breen, did you ever hear that I was a millionaire?" The question came from Koscouiuion with startllug suddeuuess. Ills tone wns harsh aud bad a ring of self satisfaction In It. Madge Breen turned Impulsively and then looked away, but not before he was aware of the hurt, dlsappolutod expression lu her wide open eyes, j "No, and I hate you for telling me I now," she flashed. | "I did not tell you. I only usked a questlou." The harshness was all gono from his tone. For the first time that ] afternoon Roscommon's voice gAw tender. Ho leaned toward bis compan j lon and said: "They told me you cared only for ! money—thut you liud no heart. I knew | they lied, but I wanted you to prove It I to me. You have shown me the girl I have been waiting to see. You huvo taught me the way to woo her. I am not rich, Madge, and If I were I should never dream that money could buy you. You say that all men nre alike. All but .one, you mean. The man you love will be transfigured. I ask you to be my wife, dear, not because of what I can give you, but because of what I can tnke. A man with any oth er ambition would not have room to ■ keep the treasure of your love. You ' can do what you will with me. The only thing I shall boast of Is a bound- I less cupaclty for being loved. Do you want such a man?" | "And you haven't once said, 'I love you,'" she exclaimed with a touch of amusement In ber voice. "That Is a I slight variation from the usual form. Do you suspect I shall do It all?" "You would have to try me to find out, no matter what I might say," re plied Boscommon. "Well," she breathed softly and then paused. He rose and walked to her chair and waited, with his heiyl bent toward hers. "Please," she whispered, "If you don't love me never let me find It out." RUINS OF ST. PAUL'S. Orlgla of MaeaDlay's Phrase In u Eighteenth Ceatnry Poem. It has long been understood that the real inventor of Macaulay's famous fc'ew Zeulaiuler was Horace Walpole, who, In a letter to Mason, written in 1774, said: "At last some curious trav eler from Lima will visit England and give a description of the ruins of St Paul's, like the editions of tialbes and Palmyra." But Mr. Bertram Dobell writes to the London Academy giving I the idea an earlier date. He finds it embodied in this old title page: Poems, by a young Nobleman, of Dis tinguished Abilities, lately deceased; par tlcularly, The State of England, and the once flourishing City of London. In a letter from an American Traveler, Dated from the Ruinous Portico of St. Paul's, In the year 2199, to a Friend settled In Boston, the Metropolis of the Western Empire. Also Sundry Fugitive Pieces, principally wrote whilst upon his Travels on the Continent. [Motto from Juvenal.3 London, 1780. Mr. Dobell explains that, though the book is dated 1780, the poem in it on London is dated March 21, 1771. He attributes it to the profligate second Lord Lyttelton. Here is one of his ex tracts from the composition: And now thro' broken paths and rugged ways, Uncultivated regions, we advane'd Towards fam'd Augusta's towers, on the Thames \*Whose clear broad stream glides smooth ly thro' the vale) Embank'd, and stretching o'er the level plain, For many a mile her gilded spires were While Britain yet was free—alas! how chang'd.

POINTED PARAGRAPHS. What Is a slgu of age lu others Is, of course, a sign of sense In you. Some people think they have done their duty if they express a willingness to do It. Some people in time grow almost fa mous for hearing of things that never happened. The average man will stand without hitching a great deal better than if he is tied to a pole. There Is one thing sure—ln a home where there Is always enough cooked for company they always have It.

A woman who accompanied her hus : band up the Khyber pass In Afghan istan tells how she saw a fine Persian carpet and coveted It. An assistant to their host went out and returning said; "My head man says the owner of the I carpet Ib a wicked old man, who will not sell his carpet at any price, but be has gone for the night to sleep In a lit tle village close by, which Is beyond > British boundary. He wants to know ' If be shall make a hole lu the wall of i the mud but and steal It while the oid I alnncr sleeps. Shall he walk In at once 1 and kill him aud take It?

How the Scone of a Torrlble Battle Originally Got Its Name. Stretching for miles along the east ern border of the city, picturesque and pleasing to view is Missionary ridge. How well that name i3 known from the hemlocks of Maine to the tlowers of Florida, and yet how different from its name are the assoeiates one gives it when it Is pronounced! In history it is recorded as being the scene of one of the fiercest conflicts of the civil war, but to the people who kifow the origin oi' the name it Is a monument to the memory of a band of devoted, self sac rificing Christian men who, braving the hardships of emigration not for the love of gain, but to help their fellow men, built the Brainard mission on the picturesque heights known by the name of Missionary ridge. It was in 1817 Uiat the Rev. Cyrus Kingsbury, Alnsworth P. Blunt and the Kev. John Vail tirst viewed the site of their mission. They were sent here by the American board of commission ers for foreign missions, and the samo board liad provided for the erection of a mission, including school buildings nnd a home for the missionaries. But the contractors failed in their contract, and the missionaries were left without money and without eyen shelter.
