"I will try nKuln." i;nt the Jrky wny Ilea plnycd the sAti't little melody did not sound iniH'h like the clear, rlpplliiK tone jnoiliiccd by Professor Curl Wagner. There was rather a pained look on the professor's face as he bada good-dny to his fair pupil; It cer tainly seemed to his masterly mind that she had no Idea of harmony. Ilea felt rebellious as she wnlked down the street, with her music roll tucked under her arm. "I've a great mind to five the horrid muslo up," she told herself. "No matter how porfect I have my lesson at home, the minute I sit down to play It for him, while he looks at mo with his melancholy eyes, I just cannot seem to play a note correctly. How I wish I had been well when I was a HchoolKlrl, so I could have been nil through with music lessons now!" Although Boa had been taking les sons a short time the was really making remarkable progress. When she had told Professor Wa;;n"r shu felt ashamed to begin mnsl when she wus over 20 years old he had as sured her she would doubtless b much better than If she hud. be gun In childhood. Bea had grown very fond of tho kind and patient man who never complained, no nat ter how many mistakes sh ma !e. , IXm't cry, dear llttl Ilea. "If he would only 'smile, how handsome he would be. He never seems to notice the pains I take with my appearance. Why, I have worn a different waist every time I have taken a lesson and I don't believe he lias ever noticed how I look." However, Mlas Bea was a wise young lady, who knew the only way to win her teacher's affection was through her music. Her ancestor wero not musicians us Carl Wagner'i bad been, but Bea had lots of deter mination. When another year had passed Peu usked Professor Wagner to give i tier one of Mozart a moat difficult scores. He had tried to convinco her that she would not enjoy this iisson, but she told him she should try it at least. Day and night Bea practised tho beautiful masterpiece until she was certain the professor would bu muda happy by hor won derful improvement. "If I can only play that way for hlni," she whls-i-tied, us she rang the bell. The girl told her the professor was out, but would bo back directly, and ush ered Bea, Into the mu:;lc room. Bea sat down and bur, an to play her lesson, softly, then forgetting where she was, she put hor whole soul la it uud played ns never baforo. She was aroused by a loud "Bravo, bravo, my brave girl," and t:pring ln. to her feet there utood Curl Wag ner w ith admiration In his eyes, and a rare smile on his face. "My dear Bea." ho said, reaching out his hands, which Ut?a had often compared to gigantic spiders, wan dering over tho keys, "how did you learn to play like this?" HW sur prise and gladness were so apparent that Bea could do nothing but burst into teurs, which was really tho best thing that she could have done. Muslo was forgotten as tho pro fessor drew the pretty figure to hint. "Don't cry, dear llttlo Ilea," he said. "I have been a blind Idiot," and bending down he kissed the rosy face that was hiding on his shoulder. After a few minutes Bea raised ber happy tear-stained face. "Dear professor," she Bald, "I hope I won't ever make any more discords." "You won't, my child" he answered with a far away look In his beautiful -'yes, "for true love can make naught but perfect harmony." Nothing: Klse.

In the old days when a woman was malting a dress for herself the opera tion of fitting was always per.'ormed by calling In some obliging jvrs :i. who would shape the cloth over the person for whom It was designed. Or sometimes It was necessary for 'he amateur to pick out from her friends somo woman of the satin general shape who would offer herself us the model to rtand for an hour or two while this tedious process was sub mitted to. Later she arrived at a more dis criminating period, when she hud to supply herself with a dummy en which to shape her clothes whl'e In the course of construction. Theso things made In different sizes which were kept In stock, for a while an swered all purposes, for a woman A DRESSMAKER'S DUMMY. . could always get one near enough to her own lines to satisfactorily take her own place. Now, however, sho has grown more particular, and uho inunt have them reproducing her own lines accurately, l.'nder ordinary cir cumstances the services of a sculp tor would bo 'requlreu to reproduca these c:id.i, but a St. Paul, M'.ue.. l:ir.n has recently patented a machine by which such a dress form may bo made directly from the model lu r teir. This is done by supporting a trar.iework around tho lady's t'erm, and fining the same with a plas'.'c i"..t"i-!al vnlch soon sets.
