ROMANCE OF A HAT-MARK.

mg leisurely lie tore him. whippea tisi'-i
bri-kly froiu his f.vt. and brought him j
' hin side to tht- veiueul Udow.
: This unexpected iutnt.lln ti.'D wasaccotii
j ("allied by a pn.mpt renioviil ol" their re
i spm tive luits. Philip's rollei down to
the cur! -sTone, and the strung r's whined
al' "tig the jivement to lie s?..psl and
retiinici by an opp.rtuiie bootbhu k. Vor
tuimtely no llily dau.iie was d.-neto
either of the emlsirrasse.1 voting men,
who instantly picked them?-lves np.
with mutually tinnvs.Hearv" apiLcies.
Philip, fs-rhai. had some rairs-n d'etre
as he liad been the airressive jrtv. but I
j the same haste to catch a train that liad J
, occasioned the t ndering of the ap.l.'.v j
, made it naturally verv brief. He liarelv
t.x.k tiiite to aiure himself that his fel-
low-voyager to the sidewalk was not
hurt, then cl:ipp-.l his hat on his head
and rushed onward with the same speed
' that defeated itsell a few sounds previ-
oils.
We state that Philip clapjsl his hat j
upon his head, but the truth is, he chip- i
! on a hat in every wav resembling it. yet
as IIUUKr It t!- Hill lllili "t liuir m t. i

he realized tiiat he had made a mistake,
! and exchanged hats w ith the stranger, j
j whom he had othcrw'w incommoded by j
: hurling him down stair-. It wild seem !
i that !Vstiny had lievn gratuitously un- j
i kind through Philip's unmeant ager.cv to !
i , . ' i
j this unoffensive waytaP-r. and tor no ap- :
' mreiit nison but her own wilful fancy.
' However it would probably lie a-s-Icss to
: return to the si-ene of their renotuitn-
even if Philip had had time. S. he cn
j tented himself by examining the hat as
i he spoil up by the K.levati-d to hi train
! at Korty-.S-e.uid strs-t, and w as glad to
! find in it a h:it mark, the initials "W. W.
i ( " neatly embroidered on a Kind of !
! dark garnet silk and .ornamctite.1 w ith !
! sprays of floss-silk vine. No one had '
'; ever'enibr..id.-re.l a hit mark for Pliilip, !
! and the rightful own.-r Ui-ame at oti.-e
i invested w ith a sort of romance in Phil- j
' ip's mind. Tiie liat of itself wasanything
j hot romantic, Is-ing one of tlnne bant,
i stitTlH-rbitsi. that seem to luive l-en in
i vente.1 for no other purpose thantocotm
j ter.iet any sible gissl l.tks t the
j part of the ow ner. "W. W. C." Philip
' pondered not a little over these cabalistic
i signs of feminine care and interest; but
' he examined them so cl.sclv indeed,
that after ti-manner of arilent explorers,
j be made an milooke.I-f..r di.-s-overy. I'n
; der the little silken Kind was tucked
j timily a slij of folded j)-r. Thinking
it might obtain -rh:iis the full -or,.-i
nleincnt of the initials, Philip opened
rea.i u. Agr-at tin-h i! ..n-r
,.- . .,
his f;u-'. and his heart iiun kenisl w ith
sviuwithv. nthep;ir were written
these words, in a .blic
elv fi-niinine
hand :
"Wiu. If you car.- to preserve this
little si.nvenir. y.J will some time km.w
that I love von: too late. ter:iat.s. for
hapl.iu.-ss, hut not too Lite for truth. li.sl
gram thalvou may safely cross the ocean.
and i-ress hack again to nie."
T(.Iat ws! aI. Philips anient xoul
thrilled w ith ten. lernes. as he reverently
! replacisl the littie scrai of piiju-r in its
i hiding .laiv, and continued to look .low n
I at it, like one in a dream. How could he
put it on again, w ith this sad secret hov
! ering above his bruin? It seem.d a sac
I rilege that he, a stranger, sh.nild lie

How to Cool a Cellar.
1 A great mistake Ls sometime made in
' ventilating cellars and milk houses. The
' ohje.-! of ventilation is to keep cellars
i cool and dry, but tilisobj.vt often fails of
K-ing accomplished by a common mLs
j take and instead the eelliir is made both
j warm and damp. A ctsil plai-e should
; never l ventilated. unU-ss the air admit-
ted is cooler than the air within, or at j
least as cool as that, or a very little
wanner. The warmer the air. the more
moisture it holds in suspension. Neces
sarily, the cooler the air, the more this
tuoLsture is condensed and percipitated.

Fifty or si xty y cars ago the gypsies in

dell and dingle where they could hatch
tin. tun. pitch the tent, their blood had
Ks-n little mixed with that of the gorgio
or gentile ; they sp'ke their language
with greater purity than at present, and
still kept their old characteristic un
changed. If they had the faults of Ara'os.
they also had many of their good .itaii
ties. If they -tole hor-esand forag-d in

lie I. au l sometimes cheated a man out
of all his ready money, by pretending to
tind a treasure in his cellar, they were

but they suit as well and buyers seldom
kn..w tiie (inference. The taste in cigars
Ls ni.iet deivptive. and a doxeii m,-n
would have as many different opinions
of the stuae cigar. If the frien ! to whom
y..u hand a five-c.-i t cigar says, as he al
ways d.ies. " By jingo, this is a tine cigar,"
do not think hiiu a i-of. noisseiir, but a

Men who have K-en in the cig;ir trade
ai! their lives can easily Is fooled by the
cigars that are made now a-days. They
are nt as g.i as the cigars were in
former years, and it seems that the soil
in Cuba Is giving out and as gKl toi-a"-co
cannot now be rsluccl. Key West
has a reputation f. r making gsil cigars,
but i-eople forg. t -cinsionally that it is
in the t'nited Stales. Tobacci is con
tinually sii, to Key West from
Pennsylvania and made into cigars there,
and theo when it is sent Ki. k in its new
form consumers labor under the idea
that the cigars are clear Havana and they
relish them as much, t f late years u
bacco ha l.rn grown in this country
which com .ares tii!.rul ly with Havirjt
tol.a.'co. The na"ufactun-rs think a
great injustice is done them by the law
obliging them to put a ciisfom-hou-s-stamp
on iuip-rte-l cigars. Just as g.l
cigars are made here, hut consumer will
prefer the one with the foreign stamp
and pay a higher f ri.-e. thus discriminat
ing against home nianufai-ture. The
Spanih workman make the best cigar,
as he has a peculiar way of rolling it
which gives if a Is-tter taste, and a great
