Kor brightest ejes have oft betrayed,
And sweetest voice of youth and maid

And thereby wrought n ileal of woe 1

Whin you're convinced you nre a poet,
And, wishing a'l the world to know it,
Call on some editor to show It,
Your verses full ot glow and blow,

Of daisies la the meadow,

with its shrill, persistent little treble in a

of music. Xevertlieles-i, as long as he
was there lie might as well dance, and,
looking around for familiar faees,h'H lirst
glance fell upon a brown-eyed maiden
whom he h(l met at a party only the
week before, and whom he had admired
with tho guarded and half-supercilious
admiration of a veteran society man. In
another minute they were on the floor
contending with their fellow creatures
for a little room to whirl around in, and
seemingly successful in their struggle,
until a slight lurch sentlheni rather sud
denly against another pair of dancers.
"That was stupid, wasn't it" said Dick
as they slopped to take breath after the
concussion.
"Yes," replied she of the brown eyes,
raising uieni lrankiy to hw lace; "vou
are rather a poor dancer. Perhaps you
are out of practice?"
"Indeed I ought not to be," protested
Dick, in utterable indignation at tlio

life than I have this winter."
"Is that so' It must he awkwardness
then," said hiscoinpaniun.gently. "Some
people never can thoroughly learn. I
think it is a natural gift."
Dick wondered if ho could have heard
aright.or if that wretched little llute.still
piping awav so complacently, had abso
lutely bewildered him. II there was one
thing he prided himself on more than
another one gift, natural or otherwise,
which he felt sure of po-HC'ssim' it was
his dancing. Was the brown-eyed dam
sel out of her mind, or was she simplv

ever win the ease, he lost no time in
getting rid of her. and, mute with amaze

group of men at the door.

"Why don't vou mind vour own affairs

and without waitinj; for another word
he veered around and left the groiip.who

She looked so harrassed that Dick for
got the grudge he owed her and would
gladly have declared her ball both bril
liant and delightful, but the words he
wished lo say stuck in his throat!. ho ab
solutely could not give thorn utterance.
An awful impulse was upon him, and to
his own secret sorrow and dismay he
heard himself assuring her the painful
truth that it was the most di-unal affair
he had ever witnessed in his life. Then,,
overwhelmed with shame at his own in
voluntary rudeness, ho turned away and
his eyes fell upon tho crimson roses still
blooming frcslily over the doorway.

any hlreet in the world. The whole
stieet is paved in solid granite ,-trcet,
sidewalks, gutters and ctubs to a thick

the whole work willl not exceed fifty
cents per square yard. Considering the
cheapness and beauty of the work, the
rapidity with which it is performed, and
the durability of the lrivemenl, the in

it to bo wiuej of ipecac, was one of the
limit v thieves who swallow more than
they can keep down. 1 he experience of
some copper-colored robbers out west was
about as miserable as his. An Idaho
mining canni, intending to celebrate the
glorious Fourth, ordered a heap of lire-
works to be sent lo them. A wnoie

on its way was captured one night ny a
band of Indians. They did not exactly
know what sort of property tlicy liad ggt
hold of, and proceeded to investigate.
The chict thought tliucaiinun eracKers
were- cigars, and the little ones cigar
ettes, which articles he had seen in use
at various camps lie- had visited, and he
listrilmted a lot around, and they an
lighted up for a smoke, and in a moment
a more surprised and puzzled set of In
dians never got together.

before he could breathe enough to yell,
and then the wild shriek lie gave could
be heard a mile awav. That ended the
smoking.
Another brave tell oil the top ot the
wagon with a big box of giant torpedoes
and the crash that greeted him as be
alighted scared him so that begot up and
ran off at break-neck-speed.
A soiiaw contrived to get a pin-wheel
afire, and as she dropped it on the
ground, the natural tendency of the
thing to whirl around made it go over
tlio ground like a w'hcel of lire, sending
out ashowcrof sparks, and causing the
affrighted lady to scud away from it,
witli her eyes as "big as saucers" with
terror.
The pin wheel got under the wagon
and ignited it, and the Indians tried at
first to extinguish the flames; but pretty
soon a Koman candle went oil, and lie-
