WILHELMINA.
Lon yeaH thew de!t in an oM
city upon the hdnlts of the Rhine a jew
eler named Rudolph von Klsenheim.
No common worker in g-ld and gems
was he. Yoa might rather speak of him
as an artifat in jewels. He looked upon a
diamond as a connoisseur might upon a
rare picture. He basked in its beauty ;
he gazed at it by eunlight and by lamp
light ; he brought forth its charms by
the richest setting, and did for it w hat
few could do by the exercise of Lute and
fancy. Xo wonder that his patrons were
the richest and most notable of the land,
and that he became almost as wealthy
as they. He might have married the
fairest of all the frauliens of the rich old
town.
Sot he was more impenetrable than
his own diamonds. He was courteous to
alL but his jewels had all his love. He
saw no beauty in woman's lip to equal
tkat of the ruby no lustre in her eye to
match that of the sapphire. There are
two arrows that fate has in store for eve
ry man. One brings love, and the other
death. But Rudolph seriifd to have
steeled hU heart against the firt. He fan
cied that he had escaped nnwounded.
He rectoned without his hott. 'Where
he least expected to receive the shaft of
Cupid, the little god lay in ambush for
him.
One bright day Rudolph set forth upon
s journey. There were no steam cars in
those days, and traveling was a very sol
emn operation, and a very slow one. If
the distance be long there must be stop
pages upon the road at sunset, and de
partures at the dawn of day, good wishes
from the host and prayers from the bost-e-
that neither robber nor evil epirit ;
might intercept the traveler on his way
through the lonely forest.
Consequently the jvweler, altera long
and toilsome journey, was glad to iind
himself at the door of a time-worn hoe
tlery, lying at the mountain foot, and to j
read upon the great swinging signboard j
the announcement that here good cheer
was offered to both man and beast, and
that there were good beds for thoee who
ished to sleep. The hot came forth to
welcome him, and while his supper was
in coarse of preparation, the stranger sat
on the broad porch and looked out upon
the road which wound down the moun
tain, upon which the dark pine furot
which bordered the western horizon and
the limpid stream, clear as a crystal, that
bounded from rock to rock, until at last
it leaped from one of them, a fairy wa
terfall, pure and silvery as though it
veiled Tndine
Along the centre of this stream a
figure moved a girl in peasant cos
tume, and bearing a pitcher upon her
head.
Her dimpled, blue veined feet were
thrust into wooden shoes, and her long
braids of hair, flaxen in the shadow, gol
den in the sunset beams, hung below her
waist. Her features had the sculptured
beauty of an antique statue, and as she
tripped aleug she sung, in the sweetest
voice that ever woman owned, a love
song of the peasant folk.
Rudolph von Elsenheim had ga-zed un
moved upon many a proud city beauty,
but here in this simple mountain village
Cupid buried his shaft in his heart, and
henceforth the beautiful Wilhelmina was
enshrined therein, a living gem more
precious to him than the choicest jewels
of Golconda's mines.
What mattered it, he asked himself,
that the girl was but a peasant, a hand
maiden of the poor inn ? She had beauty
that made her worthy of a throne. If she
was unlearned, she was pure far purer
than most titled dames, His wooing was
brief and successful, and he bore her
back with him decked in rare velvets and
rich laces, wrapped in furs fit for an em
press, with silken shoes upon the blue
veined feet that had worn wooden shoes
and followed the lowing kine to the pas
ture. For year even his jewels were forgot
ten in his new found treasure, and a
happier pair of married lovers never
lived-
' Alas ! s leopard cannot change its
spots. When a year had passed and an
other was following, the old spell began
to creep once more over the jeweler's
soul. He loved Wilhelmina still, Dut Le
left her side more frequently, and sat
loog hours absorbed in contemplation of
some new jewel.
Wilhelmina never reproached him
with Lhi change, but what she saw sad
dened her greatly. With his return to
his old idols then began to be a mono
mania with Rudolph.
It grieved him to part with s jewel
now, and when one wai relinquished he
sought eagerly for another to supply iu
place. He gioated over them, talked of
them strangely told impossible tales of
them. Men began to whisper that Ru
dolph van Elsenheim was going mad
and once poor Wilhelmina saw some
thing very strange in her husband's la
boratory, something of which she never
spoke to any one a dark form, with fiery
eyes and horns upon its head, standing
at the jeweler's elbow. Terrified, she fled
to the church hard k-y, and there prayed
long and ardently, and for awhile after
that Rudolph seemed himself again and
caressed ber as he hail used to do ; but
the better mood anon vanished.
It was at this time that s jewel of great
value, s diamond of wonderful sixe and
beauty, was the theme of conversation
everywhere. Princes contested for its
possession ; dali'rs were mad over it.
Rddolph, richer than eve-n tboee who
knew him beat had guessed, became its
proud possessor, and his joy knew no
bounds. But Wilhelmina's heart grew
sick with terror when she saw once more
at his shoulder that black and hideous
being she had once seen before. He him
self saw nothing, but turning and seeing
sadness on the brow of Wilhelmina, s
touch of the old tendernesss made him
wih to share his joy with her, and he
aroe, and clasping her waist with his
arm, drew her toward the window, and
out upon the balcony that lay becealh it
and extended over the blue waters of the
Rhine.
Feast your eyes cpon this diamond,
my angel," he said. It is among jew
els what you are among women. Look!
You do not yet comprehend its splendor,
or the compliment I pay yoa in likening
it to yoa."
He placed the diamond on her palm as
he spoke, and the yonng wife, fluttered
and happy, bent over it, seeking for
words that might please him in which to
ntter her praise. But at that instant she
once more espied the demon's face thrust
between ber husband's and her own, and
the terror overpowered her every other
thought. Her hand was raise 1 to repel
the hideous being, and the diamond dar
ted from her paloi and Lnri d itself in
the deep water beneath the balcony.
With s cry that was neither a scream
nor a groan, Rudolph lifted his hand and
siruck his wife upon the bosom.
" Clumsy cow girl H he crieiL " Coarse
peasant whom I found among the moun
tains ! Fool that I was to trust a jewel of
such price in your bandit ! As great a fool
as I was before that to ask you to share
my life! ione gne the wonder of the
world has gone forever 1" And he ca-st
himself down upon the floor and wept in
bitternrss of soul for the loss of his pre
cious diamond.
Meanwhile, Wilhelmina, broken heart
ed and in a woful bodily pain, crept out
of his sight. That night she grew very
ill, and the dawn of day saw her lying
dead upon her pillow, and upon her bo
som a little babe that had wailed but
on.-e before it followed her.
As he looked upon her all RadoIphV
grief for the low? of his diamond became
although it had never been. His grief
was all for Wilhelmina now. His re
morse was terrible. He knew himself
to be the murderer of the wife who had
loved him, and whom he now once more
loved as in the days when first he met
her.
From that day Rudolph was a changed
man, moody and miserable a man who
never smiled or spoke to any one when
he could avoid it, " Madder than ever,"
men said, for still he sought for jewels
which seemed to disappear as fast as he
became their possessor."
He was greedy for patronage, and he
pleased the great folk as well as ever and
charged him more for his taste and judg
ment and knowledge of jewels. But there
were b-ggars who were better clad than
he. Year by year be lived this life, un
til his hair grew white and his skin
shriveled, and Lis limbs became lean,
and in his eyes grew a ?reat horror, for
since his wife's death he himself had
seen the hideous demon at his shoulder
and guessed what parne be lore. But as
for the jewels he purchased robbers
miht have sought for them in vain, for
at the anniversary of Wilhelmina's death
he sought her grave at midnight, and
there, with moans anil tears, buried
above her coiTin the jewels he had
amassed thai year ; then prayed to God
for pardon, and took his lonely way
home.
At last the return of the sad anniversa
ry found Rudolph very old. He felt that
death was near, and all his plans were
laid. That morning he sold to one who
had long desired to be its poseesnor his
mansion and his great estate, all the
adornments of his house, all the rich rai
ment which he long before had ceased to
wear, and invested the ppc?e !s in gpms
which he placed in a little bag in his bo
som. For the last time before strangers
should poesese it he went through his
mansioD, bidding adieu to the rooms one
by one, and then in his laboratory to all
the familiar tools of his worshipped art,
then out upon the balcony for one mo
ment. Here it was that he had in his
rath heaped up remorse for all his lii'e
life perhaps fjr all eternity.
He looked sadly down into the dark,
blue water iu helpless misery, until sud
denly he saw a siht that made his heart
stand still the figure of a water spirit
white and transparent aa pearl, arising
from the wave, and as he gazed on ber
she lifted her hand and held something
towarl him. He knew it on the instant
It was the diamond that had dropped
from Wilhelmina's palm long years be
fore. It lay in his palm again, and the
vision vanished. He clutched the gem
so strangely restore, 1 to him in his with
ered hand, and leaning on his SUIT, tot
tered forth. The road to the God's acre
was short, but his strength barely suific-
ed him tj reach it. Night had fallen ere
he did so, and the stars ehone in the sky,
as,, kneeling beside Wilhelmina's grave,
he buried one by one the jewels he had
brought with him, and last of all tbe'lia
mond so strangely restored to him. And
then, as he replaced the turf, his tears
poured forth the hard and bitter tears
of an old man.
14 My murdered Wilhelmina,' he cried
aloud at last, I have buried in thy grave
all those jewels which were thy rivals
whilst thou lived. Th -t gem which lost
me my soul and thee, lies also on thy
coffin. Forgive me, martyred angel, for
give me as I pray heaven may! From
this moment, homeless and s beggar, I
will wander about the world till death
releases me. What expiation I could, I
have made. Oh, tor s sign that there,
where thou dwellest, thou hast known
it!"
As he ceased a great awe fell upon him
for from the grave beside which he knelt
arose a strange light, pure and clear as
that which glows at the heart of a dia
mond ; the rays spread in all directions,
making s great halo above the sod, and
in its midst he siw Wilhelmina sund.ng
with her babe in her arms. About her
limbs full a strangely beautiful drapery
of what seemed silver mist, and upon ber
brow was a coronet of gems, in the midst
of which shone a great diamond like a
star. I

With Banana Skins.
She was walking rapidly up the walk
leading to the front steps of s house on
Ferry street. It was her walk and her
house, and she had a right to walk any
way she chose. That disgusting Brown
family next door might better mind their
own business and stop watching ber.
So she was saying to herself, when
flop! thump ! her feet went from under
her and she found herself sitting un
comfortably hard upon that same walk
wiiich s moment before she Lad been
treading so proudly. Slowly she picked
herself up, and ruefully she looked at
the banana peel which had caused her
downfall. A half suppressed titter
came from the window of the house
next door.
uSo that's their trick, is it?" she
muttered, scornfully, tossing her head
toward her enemies. "Well, it's a game
two can pla7 at."
The next morning the old man Brown
got up rather early and started to walk
down-town. He had barely reached
his front steps when he struck some
thing. It carried him orT his feet like
a cyclone. Us went bumpety bump
down tiie steps. At the bottom he
struck something else. It carried him
along a few feet farther and then shot
him into s barbed-wire fence, which
had been mysteriously strung across
the path during the night.
The fence stopped him. But what a
sight he was! His clothes were torn
and covered with mud and ashes. The
mud and ashes had also mysteriously
got on the path daring the ni;:ht. His
flesh was lacerated and bruised and
his little finger was broken in tw o
places.
He picked himself cp and crawled
back into the house and up to the room
of his youngest son.
"Ben," he said, "was it you put that
banana pee! on the Widder Smith's waik
yesterday ?''
' "Yep."
"Well, yoa young rascal, take that
for it, and that!" and he bejran admin
istering kicks on the person of his son
till the youngster howled with pain.
Then xs he crawled o J in search of
the. arnica bottle he murmured: "I
don't blame the widder a bit, It was s
mean trick, but it m as a blamed sight
meaner of her to take revenge on me
when I'm the only one in our family

Japanese Women.
It would be hard to say howChristian-ity-in-name,
as we naa,'!y have it, could
improve the conduct or character of the
Japanese women, who seem always to
have been very good Christians without
knowing it, if we are to believe Miss
Bacon. Perhaps the answer to the con
undrum is that Christianity is not pri
marily a purifying force, but is first an
enlightening force ; that its ideal is
virtue, not innonce Gethsemane, not
Eden. The harmlessness of the dove
will not avail without the wisdom of the
serpent: the impu!.- of onr faith is to
ward consciousness, knowledge. No
doubt this is what the Japanese feel in
it; probably it is what makes them will
ing to change their civilization for ours.
They really seem s race of better and
sweeter nature than our Ives; unless
their witnesses ro is re pott them they are
gentler, kinder, even truer, than we are
naturally.
But something seem3 lacking to them,
an I they look tow:ird us for it; they
fancy spiritual possibilities on the plane
which ws tell thetu is above theirs. The
fine perfection of their art is a stunted
beauty; it has never the inllnite reach
of the Greek ; the loveliness of their
lives is childlike ; it has not the celestial
aspiration of the Hebrew ; and no doubt
they feel this as clearly as they perceive
the difference between us and our ideals.

"Is it possible that yoa do not know,

The boy scratched his head in s some

"Well," he said, "I've often heard my

MARGARET OF ORLEANS.
"I wonder if it idealizes herT
We stand beside the statue of tha fa
mous woman, 5Iargaret of New Orleans,
and, after the n.anner of strangers, con
jecture on what we for the tlrst time
see.
"Not at all." s voice answers in tie
soft Southern tongue. "It looks just like
her."
"Ah, thank you. Yoa live here T
"I was born hers ; this is my home."
"Yoa were here during the war and
yellow fever and everything? and was
Ben Butler so dreadful? and have yoa
seen Cable?"
A nod answers each one of my young
companion's impetuous queries-
"How delightful !" concludes my
friend, bui the lady shakes her head and
taps her fan lightly on the girl's soft
cheek, and says musingly : "It did not
seem as if I would live throch it, but I
have, and now comes one who calls my
trials 'delightful.' How cruel !"
"Ah, pardon. Bit I was thinking of
that charming man who wicle the de
licious 'Mme. Ielphine. I was thinking
how perfectly lovely it most be to live
here and know him and then to live in
a city that has had such a history it is
so romantic And can you tell us any
thing about Margaret?"
"This little space 'Margaret's Place'
it is called it is s pleasant spot to rest
in."
With this invitation, given more in
look than in words, we seatexl ourselves
near our new acquaintance on the ett-es
in the littie park. The perfume of Mat h
roses overhang the city ; we forget in its
deiiciousness the signs of decay that in
portions of that quaint old town imparts
a pensive melancholy to ia beacty. Near
by us in the green grass is a pool set
about with s low border of cactus; a
mimic fort, with all its bristling thorn
guns out, and its blossoms floating from
the ramparts, which are guarding with
ach fiercenees only s lazy fleet of water
lilies, under the shade of which there is
a whir! cf goldfish.
A stone footbridge crosses the pool and
spans the river of cactuses. It is a very
old and tasteful device, this pool ; and
the little park in which it is placed is
unique is: its way.
"She was a working woman a servant
here. When I first remember her I was
living near here, and she was taking care
of the cows in a stable that stood almost
on the very spot where her statue stands
now. She was werkirg then for the sis
ters of the asylum. She fed and mi'ked
their cows and sold milk in a cart about
the city.
"She was a strange looking person
remarkable in her appearance. I think
now as I recall her she had a broad fore
bead, serious eyes, s pleasant, broad
smile, a rather short, stout figure. I do
not believe she ever in her life wore any
dress better than a Guinea blue calico ;
she always wore heavy shoes and a black
etrsw bonnet. From my residence I
could see her many times a day while
she was at her stable work or coming
back and forth with her milk cans.
"Whit was her name? Her name was
Margaret Haoggery ; she bad been mar
ried, and at that time was a widow. Her
husband and little child died just after
she came to New t r!eans ; so we learned
after she became famous She was alone
and poor in a strange country, and went
to work in tbe staMes for a living. Some
how, everyb-xly liked Margaret Her
smile was sweet and her woris shrewd.
The children called her Mar.-arvt, and
she krew their names and answered
their salutations along th street as she
drove by in the milk cart.
"After some years Margaret had saved
enough to buy a bit of ground that had
on it s small bakery. The place wa
sold for a trifle, but now Margaret was in
royal trim a landowner and a manufac
turer; for she opened the shop an 1 be
gan bread and pie making for the neigh
bors. Presently there was a large bakery
built ; soon bread carts were running
over the city bearing the words, 'Mar
garet's Bakery. It became the fashion
t) buy at Margaret's place. During the
war, pestilence and disaster Margrtret's
tires were never out, and the delicious
rolls kept up their weight and quality,
no matter what else in life failed.
"Then she began running her free
bread carts daring the fever panic. No
one went hungry who was within sound
of her cart wheels. From that time on
no one need go hungry in New Orleans
those too poor to buy were given a loaf
fresh and white as the best, and it was
given heartily, with s 'God bring thee
better times.' There was no distinction
in Margaret's favors. She gave to white
and black, of any church, or none. 'Are
you hungry T that was all that was neces
sary. 'Here is bread ; take it, with. God's
blessing.'
"There have been in this city dread
days, which seemed as if God and every
body had failed us but Srargaret ; days
when she almost literally fed the city.
During the yellow fever panic Margaret
began her noble work of taking the chil
dren from the homes of death and put
ting them in a house ander good care,
supporting them herself in every partic
ular. Soon the one asylum grew into
many ; the dozens of her little charges
were numbered by hundreds and at the
time of her death thousands. At the
gate of every orphan aaylnm in the city
Margaret's bread cart, with its smoking
rolls, was seen daily ; at every charitable
institution whatsoever she took the priv
ilege of giving her bread freely, and Mar
garet's name headed the list for every
charity.
"(ur grand Charity hospital, one of the
most famous in the world, was largely
the gift of Margaret. Yoa must visit
that hospital. It will make yoa better
all your life for having seen seen it
Right through the trees there, at the
right, do yoa see that magnificent braid
ing with its four galleries running around
the first four stories of the house? Its
gate tells in golden letters that this Li a
children's home, given by Margaret,
where to the end of time orphans will
be cared for and educated by her be
quests. "I suppose Margaret spent more money
for tbe city than the richest man in the
history of the State ; and ef the sympathy
and dlfcernmect of the needs of the poor
the half cuuid never be told. She spent
nothing on herself- A clean blue calico,
stout shoe, s black straw bonnet, s knit-
ted jacket or shoalder shawl, an iron

ing chair, and overlooking the bskeshop.
She had no time to enjoy luxuries, even
had she possessed them. As long as
there was a weeping child or a friendleee
woman in the city, what time had she to
fold her arms in a rockier chair? While
there were unburied, coflia'ess forms,
could she adorn her home of tiie living?
And so it bappvaed that to the end of
life Margaret spent neither time, care nor
money on herself. She forjot there was
sucn a mortal as Margaret.
"And when, one day, the news went
around that Marjaret was dead, the great
city r-ee and pet on mourning ; the busi
ness houses were closed ; all the employ
ments of Lue city Mood stilL The day of
the burial thousands of her little orphans
followed her bier as mourners; every
church sent delegations of honor bearers :
the public school children joined in
tbe throng ; the houess were draped
along the line of march ; ail the bells in
the rity toiled : civic and military join
ed in the ppx'ession with ecclesiastics;
there never was here s funeral like. Mar
garet's. "Afterward it was found that her pos-
; . v . l K . . I j l .. . i
death come at any moment the a-iairj of
this hfe were well and intelligently
wound up. There were no personal ef
fects of value, but even her fes garments
she left to the por. and with the pro
ceeds of her wise investments her chari
ties are ryai!y endowed.
"This statue in the gift of the city, tu
show in this public way the esteem in
which si. e is Lc! 1. It is very like Mar-
gnret. The motherly tig'lre seated with
oue arm eccirciin a standing child at
her side; the untrimmed dress, coarse
shoes, the little crx'hetted .shawl about
her shoulders are homely, but who would
change them for liner clothing? The
smooth hair, with its old fashioned
French parting; the strong chin, the
pleasant mouth, the serious eyea is tkere
not something fascinating in the contrac
tions of the face ?
" Did yoa ever see such s head on a wo
man shoulders.' Massive, wonderful!
That is the head cf a statesman and finan
cier, while its mouth, witli its pleasant
smile, telling of the tact and natara.' suav
ity of Margaret's character, proclaim the
elements of a born diplomat. Yet, look
a.'ain at the broad, massive brow, and
see the earnest, loving eye that speak3 of
a true womanhood ; lixsk once mors at
the coarse garments, and yuu will see
that poverty a ided her load to the ordi
nary burden of womanhood, while hrno- !
ranee, bereavement, ailliction, loneliness,
join i.anus wua poverty aeTunst this soul.
But the massive brow conquered, the un
taught brain triumphed, and under the
leadership of the sad, gentle eyes gave to
the suffering what might, had she been a
man born in othr circa ustacces, have
been the gain of cations and the glitter
of the trapping of a diplomat.
"When I consider what Marjaret did
for one eity under such desperate disad
vantages. I wonder what she could have
done for the world if ailfheenvironments
Lad been ris-ht. I was thinking of that
as I looked, in passic for the hundredth
tin.e, at the strong, fascinating face tha
morning, when your question met my
ear.
" Yes, it looks iiks her, and there will
never be another like it in marble to the
end of time. She was a grand character
tender, strong, original, pitiful, helpful,
wise." X. . Shu
Taminar a Shrew.
A certain woman cf fashion, conspicu
ous in the society of a city not a thous
and miles from Washington, whose in
firmity cf temper has given rise to very
interesting gossip occasionally, figures in
a quaint little story that is at present g
ing tbe rounds,
A short time s -ro she was entertaining
at supper a la.ly of her acquaintance,
when it chanced that there was placed
cpon the table a small pot of chocolate.
The hostess of the occasion was very fond
of the beverage in question, partaking of
it every evening of her life. Unfortu
nately the servant had neglected to make
more than the usual quantity, which was
just atont suihciect for a single cup.
Accordingly, when the guest was asked
if she would have some, she hesitated a
moment and said no. Whereupon her
entertainer flushed with anger at the
o.i.tr.i,,!,:." and, rising from her seat,
deliberately poured the contents of the
pot out of the window.
This wis eml-arra--iag for the lady en
tertained, to say the leat of it. f
course, she pretended to take no notice,
merely g'anciniz at her host, who made
the third person at the repast, to see if
he evidenced any consciousness respect
ing the proceeding. B it. he only smiled
slightly beneath bis mustache and made
no remark.
Presently he asked her if she would
have some chicken salad, of which a big
dishful male the principal feature amon
tiie viand.
"I thank you, no," she replied, merely
because she Lad a preference for some
thing else.
Immediately, as if it were a matter of
course, the hot picked ur the chicken
selad and threw it, dlu and all, out the
window into the garden.
"Its a way we have here," he remarked
calmly.
Nobody said anything for quite five
minutes afterward, but the extreme ami
ability exhibited by the hostess for the
rest of the evening led the visitor to
imagine that the lesson thus given after
the manner of Petruchio was not with
out a certain domestic usefulness. H'i-'i-iiujt'.ra

A Fault to'Ba Outgro wn.
Amongmy acquaintances are severs
young physicians. For a considerable
time I have been puzzled over the fact
that each one oft hern is, as to religion
and reh'goiis topics, and agnostic I
couldn't understand how, with their
knowledge of anatomy, physiology, chem
istry, natural philosophy and various
other sciences, they could so unanimous
ly agree that they are knownothings.
Accordingly I wrote various inquiries to
s friend of mine who is and has for mauy
years been prominently connected wits
one of the leading universities iathis
country. I expected an analytical, vol
uminous repJy. When that reply reach-
ed me it said, after a few srcial expres-
