"Whpwl" ejaculated Fred, 'leisurely

Seeing nothing of Gypsie that oven-

note understood wliat it, Had neon ,to
Gypsie..
"Oh, Doctor," she exclaimed turning
towards htm aa he entered, "What is

Ho pronounced it brain fever, but
said that with caroful nursing ,she
would recover, and after nine weeks, of
unremitting care, Gypsio slowly re
gained her health, but tho .strain had
been too much for Mrs. Sutherland.
Threo months after Fred Perlcy bade
ner uood-bye, Gypsio stood on tho th
reshold of that vine-olad cottage a
motherless girl.
"
"Hello, old boyl" exclaimed Valcn
tino Bo'ylo shaking Fred Perloy by tho
hand, "llow aro y out Wnen did you
arrive!"
Ono question' at a time, please,
laughingly responded Fred. "Wo 'ar
rived here safely yesterday at ono
o'clock, and is the lady mamma well!"
"Ladv Boyle is well, thanks, and
would like you to bo at her ball this
evening. Tho dimness oi tJiieswioK s

A Woman of Jewels,
THE DIAMONDS WORN lit RUSSIA'S EMPRESS
' OTIIKU NOTABLES,
t
No woman in the world 'wears so
many jewels as tho czarina. Even her
sistori who, when sho comes to tho Eng.
lidi throno will wear tho Kohinoor,
will not havo suoh jewels or so many
of them at ouo time. -Tho
.Ruge'ian crown jewels aro something
labulous. It is to bo doubted whether
anyono outside of that' country has' any
conception of tho extent of tho Uo1
nauolf possossions in tho way of pre
aiou9;stones. The Russians still -'retain'
their bid barbario love for splendor,
and when the empress shows herself
sho is a vision of unmatched gorgeous
nesai Sho is ono of th(J few monarchs
who Hill make 'a practico of wearing
a crown on gioat occasions, Mot of
the European queens: and empresses
content ttiomselves wiili a tiara, and
oveu Queen Victoria on ,lha occasion.
pf her jubilee levco wore only ono, of
the diamond tiaras such as may bo
seen on tho heads of women in the
boxes' of tho Metropolitan opera
house. Mrs., Astor- ustd tor woar a
very handsome one of the samo sort.
But tho czarina wears a, real crown.
There .are several sho uses, but the
favorite one is that made , and worn by
tho great Elizabeth of, Russia, and
Which is loaded wilhi gems of grea
prices The pearls alonq.aro said to bo
valued at something, like 80,000 rubles.,
When the .empress danced the other
night' with tho, Austrain embassador,
causing tho sigcificaut fact to be, flash
ed, aiound , tho world, pvor, mountains
and under oceans before, morning, -slio.
was arrayed in a fashion of. which Sol
omon never dreamed nor Balkis never
saw. On her head was tho, Ehzabeth
ancrown. Her gown was of, heavy
wliito watertd silk, with a whito.volvet
train,- embroidered heavily in gold and
hung about all tho edges with gold
balls.' The fr6nt of tho tiowu was or
namented with ronoi of liuked pink
coral! setiin diamonds and fastened at
intervals to the drcs$. The moklace
sho wore coutaiued over a thousand
stones and reached nearly from neck-
to waist a mass pf rubies, Bapphiyes
and diamandsj.aiveiilablo breast-plate
of, gems. Besideatbis showoro.pn h'er
breast abou.t half of her orders-r-she
hasQver.40 in all and they too. were
Ihshiutr with precious stones. Her
rinirs, .bracelets and earrings were all
equally nipknificent, aud wheni .she
danced it, was like ,tho, northern lights
. . . i . l ii..i.;-
in a misty sKy, a myriad uusuiug rays
of all hues slitterinii and .changing
withioverv movement. Y'Bt. tho czar
ina,' when sho goea-.back Jo her ,;early,
homo in Denmark, is absolutely, wtnplo
in hor costumes, wearing lor the most
part plain print frocks iu tbo morning,
and a ulaiu straw' hat with merely a

At this' yory moment a gontloman
iooking over my shoulder tells mo that
a few days ago ho came to town, for tho
particular lnirposy qf mailing a very
important letter. Ho did not like to
run the risk of having it lie for a day
in the post-olhco In the suburban bor-
oughi whero ho resides. He camo to
Pittsburg, about fifteen miles, went
straight to tho post-office, bought eix
1 !J-cetit elatnps, which he remembored
ho was iu uoed of, and returned to his
hemo with the important letter rosting
securely in his breast-pocket.
A slory used to bo told many years
ago of a merchant who was peculiarly
subject to fits of absent inindedness.
Uno day ho was writing a letter ana .
thought, absent-mindedly, that ho had
torgotteu his correspondents tirst
name. Turning to ono oi his clerks ho
said, "What is John Jackson's first
name!"
Tho clerk,, aocustomod to his employ
er's peculiarity, icplicdt "John, sir."
Tho merchant wrote tho letter, put
it in au envelope, and was again at a
loss. To tbtj samo clerk ho taul: "hx-
en so me, Uhario; 1 havo lor gotten
Johu Jackson s last uamo!"
But a better story than tbo above is
told of a gentleman in this- city who
was met by a lriend one morning recent
ly, Jiurrying back from the depot to
ward ma nuine.
"What's tho matter" tho friend
asked.
"Oh, I'vo left my watch 'Under my
pillow, and I'm going lo get it.'
,fYpu'll miss your train."
"Oh, no,'1 was tlio absent-minded
nun's reply. "See, I'vo got four mlu
utes yet," and ho pulled out his watch
lo enforce tuo statement. Aud ho did
not realize for eeycral seconds what )t
was that tnado his friend laugh so
