Kant ment n Her ladyship's extravagance was a subject of general remark, but it was true ihat his lordship did not stint her lu money matters, and «•> what she threw away was nobody's business after all. It was so for the first five years of their married life, and then his lordship began to feel the pinch. He delayed Baying anything to her of the nnuter as long as possible, but there came a day when lie had to tell her tin* retrenchment must be the watchword for several years to come He had figured up her bills and found she had spent more money In a given time than any other woman In the kingdom. In a way he was proud of It, but iu another way he had to give her u word of caution. She could still be extravagant and reduce her ex penses one-half. His lordship found out something too late. Give a wife rein for the first five years, and she will take the bit In her teeth for the next five. Talk of econ omy should come before instead of after. In addition to gratifying her own many whims and caprices her ladyship had a brother in the navy and another in the army, both officers, of course, and both living more or less off her bounty. Only the day before Ills lordship had asked for a private in terview to talk retrenchment she had sent the naval officer a liberal check to straighten up his debts of honor and been informed by letter that the other one must have a much larger amount or throw up his commission In dis grace. Ilis lordship's news, therefore, came like a douche of cold water. If there was any sort of scene It was kept from the servants and therefore from the public, and things seemed togo on na before. They didn't, however. Her lady ship had her diamonds duplicated In paste and raised a large sum on the real gems to help others and herself. This was done quietly and secretly and was only part of a plan she had in her mind. . After the close of the London season his lordship retired to his country cas tle and was soon followed by a score of invited guests. The astute English robber is alwaj's on the watch for theso house gatherings. Every woman guest is certain to bring at least a good part of her jewels to wear at dinner, and there are always chances for a smart thief to get In his work. As an offset the host employs a detective to mix in with the servants or even with the guests for the time being and keep watch over things. It was so In this case. Scotland Yard had loaned him Inspector McDonald, and there never had been a robbery In a country house he was protecting. The inspector, under another name, mingled with the guests and made him self at heme, but he was giveu to pass ing much of his time wandering over the estate and musing In the shade of Its forests. One of his musing fits was one day interrupted In a rather singular manner. He was lying on the moss under a spreading beeeh when the sound of footfalls disturbed him, and he rolled over on his side, to discover her lady ship making her furtive way through the woods. At a dozen paces from him she stopped and with a stick dug a hole In the ground at the foot of a tree and concealed something. When she had run away the inspector scooped out the dill until he came to an oiled silk bag containing her ladyship's diamonds. They were all there to her last ring, and thfc inspector knew enough about precious stones to know that these were paste. This happened at 3 o'clock in the aft ernoon. What her ladyship would do without her diamonds at dinner time the Inspector could not determine. Her secret burial of them meant to him simply one thing—she was going to be "robbed" of them. She would have to put up a claim of loss by daylight, and there would be a sensation. Either that or she must be "indisposed" at dinner time and not appear among her guests during the evening. Her ladyship proceeded at once to business. An hour before dinner, and after all the guests, including the in spector, had been indulging in games on the lawn, she went to her room to discover that her diamonds were miss ing. There was a sensation at once. No one had seen any stranger lurking about, and the robbery must have been perpetrated by some of the servants. Including maids and valets, these num bered over sixty, and each one was obliged to come forward and be inves tigated. His lordship insisted on the most rigorous examination, and this led to protestations and hard feelings. Within twenty-four hours the house party was broken up and scattered, and Inspector McDonald had to admit that he had no clew. The only thing his lordship could do was to offer a re ward. and he made it $25,000. The Inspector did not go with the others. He remained behind to look for clews. He held many Interviews with his lordship and her ladyship to gether, and he had to admire the densi ty of the one and the cunning of the other. It was more than cunning. Her ladyship had more nerve and cheek than the detective ever before had found in a woman. She was a most convincing liar, and if he hadn't had the pastq diamonds in his pocket he would have been inclined to„ believe that the scene In the woods was a day dream. She could furnish no Informa- ! Hon as to how her diamonds bad disap | 'pea red. She cleared her own maid of suspi cion, but would not vouch for the hon esty of the others. It was through her advice and insistence that his lordship | advertised "No questions asked." The ! stolen plunder could thus be returned by any one of her choosing. The $25,- 000 would get the originals out of pawn and save her brother. The in spector held but one interview with her ladyship alone. At that interview, after she had retold her story and looked him as straight in the eye as a woman could, he said: "I can't believe that the plunder was carried far. I shouldn't wonder if it Was buried in the woods." "That may be," she innocently re plied. "They didn't happen to be your paste diamonds, while the real gems are in a vault in town?" "Would his lordship advertise such u reward for paste diamonds? Have you ever heard that 1 have resorted to paste?" "I did not mean it in that sense. The reasjn I spoke of the woods was be cause 1 was out there that afternoon." "Well v" I"I thought I sa-r a woman prowling around." [ "Then 3011 have been derelict ns a detect Ire. Why didn't you speak of llie matter before'/" "The more I think of It the more I be lieve that this woman burled some thing at the foot of a tree." "Then let mo call his lordship, and we will go at once." When it was too late he saw that she wouldn't take a bluff, and he was obliged to accompany the pair to the woods. He walked straight to the tree and showed them the cavity. He look ed straight Into the eyes of the woman, but she did not falter in the gaze. He saw by her attitude that she was even ready to hear him say that she wai the woman he saw and to drag from his packet the bag of diamonds In corrob oration. lie dared not put her to the test. When his lordship criticised his ac tion iu* not overhauling the unknown woman, the detective could only swal low his chagrin and beg to withdraw from the case. Two hours later he was packed and ready to go. As he was descending the stairs he encountered her ladyship ascending. She gazed straight into his eyes and held out her hand. There was no bribe in her fin gers—she knew the inspector to bo above that. He took the bag of dia monds from his pocket and passed It over without a word and then, raising his hat to her, he kept on his way out of doors. Two weeks later a London paper said: "We are glad to hear that her lady ship's diamonds have been restored to her. It Is liiuted that the person claim ing the reward had the manners of the gentleman, though In disguise." "One of her brothers, maybe," said Inspector McDonald to himself, as he turned to the case In his book and wrote "Closed" at the bottom. Ills Religion. Not long ago a certain clergyman from the west was called to a church In Jersey City. Soon after his arrival the divine's wife made the usual vis its to the members of the parish. One of these, a plumber's wife, was asked by the good lady whether the family were regular churchgoers, whereupon the wife of the plumber replied that, while she and her children were at tendants at divine service quite regu larly, her husband was not. "Dear me!" said the minister's wife. "That's too bad! Does your husband never goto church?" "Well, I wouldn't say that he never went," was the reply. "Occasionally Will goes to the Unitarian, now and then to the Methodist, and I have known him to attend the Catholic church." A look of perplexity came to ttye face of the visitor. "Perhaps your husband Is an agnostic," suggested she. "Not at all," hastily answered the other; "he's a plumber. When there Is nothing for him to do at one church there is very likely something for him at one of the others."—Harper's Week ly. Where the Sen ntnappenrii. A girl was recently overtaken and drowned by the incoming tide on the west coast of France. A transplanted Breton said of this fatality: "Can you, who see your own tides crawl In at the rate of ten feet or so an hour. Imagine tides racing like wild white horses up the flat sands at the rat'* of half a mile a minute? The ex traordinary flatness of our Breton coasts gives us these phenomenal tides. The sea does not rise and fall. It ap pears and disappears. You have a vast and flat plain of sand. At a set hour the sea rushes In, white, wild, submerg ing this vast plain. At a set hour an unseen hand sucks back the waters back thirty, forty, fifty miles —and nothing Is visible but the plain of pale sand again. Woe unto such as walk on this desolate plain when the tide begins to rise, for they must drown! Nothing can save them."—Philadelphia Bulletin. Experienced Trnveler. "Ix>ok here," demanded the irate ho tel proprietor, "what did you say to that last guest?" "Why," replied the waiter, "he didn't pass over a tip, so I said, 4 I think you have forgotten something, sir.' " "That's Just it. After you said that he returned to the table and took three oranges and six pears."—Philadelphia Ledger. Coniiclence.

When Mapleson, the operatic mana ger, was on a tour in Dublin, Miles. Salla and Anna de Belocca were in the company. On arriving at the hotel both ladles chose the best suit of rooms In It, each saying, "These will do for me." "I shall have them," said Salla. "I am prima donna." "There are two prima donnas," returned Belocca, "myself and Pattl." This began a furious quarrel. Mapleson went to the hotel keeper and ascertained that there were some other rooms nearly as good, lie enjoined the man to declare that they were for Lady Spencer, wife of the viceroy, and stand to the state ment. lie then called him up and said loudly: "Both these ladies must have equally good rooms. Where are the others?" "The only others as large are reserved for the Countess Spencer," re turned the hotel keeper. "But we could see them?" exclaimed both sing ers at once. "Oh, yes," said the man, leading the way. Belocca instantly flew upstairs past him into the suit and, locking the door in their faces, shouted through the keyhole that Lady Spencer must get on as best she could, leaving Mapleson to congratulate him self on the effect of his stratagem.

There were bargain sales even when this country was in its early youth, but most of the bargains offered were choice lots of slaves to be disposed of at the old slave mart that stood at the foot of Wall street.

GOLDMAN, Prop'r, wI " T I F S t ;V.,r.'., Sl :" 1 ' LIFE IN THE MIDDLE AGES. flit Way fn Slcknes* nml Old Art® Wa* Pllluhle Indeed. C-jniKfriiiug tho life of poor people during tlie middle ages a writer says; "In those bygone days of feudal rule the dwellers in the country were al most invariably serfs, bound to the es tate on which they were born and un der the absolute rule of the owner. They were possibly better fed than at the present day, for butter, cheese and eggs were plentiful, and the fertile soil af Italy supplied tliem with abundance of fruit and vegetables. The poor man held 111 > plot of ground by tho tenure of :j many days in the year of service t i his lord. But in sickness or old ago lis case was very pitiable, and we have a curious proof of this in a letter writ ten in 1405 by tho mother of Fillppo Stnizzi, at Florence. She is speaking of some old people on her estate in tho country: 4 Piero and Monna Cilia are boili alive and Infirm. I have over flow'ed the field for next year, and, as I must put it in order, those two old peo ple, If they do not die, must go and beg. Heaven will provide.' This Is no pass in thought of the good lady, who was pious and highly esteemed, a friend of tho Medici, but it is a firm resolution In her own mind. A few months later she writes to her son: 'lMero Is still alive, so he must put up with it and go a way and beg. It would bo best, of course, if heaven will take him.' Ap parently a merciful Providence had al ready provided for Monna Cilia!" MARKS OF LONGEVITY. Pttynleal Indication* Thai You Mar Study For Yourffelf. Every person carries about with him tho physical indications of ills longevi ty. A long lived person may be dis tinguished from a short lived person at sight. In many instances a physi cian may look at the hand of a patient and tell whether he will live or die. The primary conditions of longevity are that the heart, lungs and digestive organs as well as the brain should bo large. If these organs are large the trunk will be long and tlie limbs com paratively short. The person will ap pear tall in sitting and short in stand ing. The hand will have a long and somewhat heavy palm and short fin gers. The brain will be deeply seated, as shown by the orifice of tlie ear be ing low. The blue hazel or brown ha zel eye, as showing an intermission of temperament, is a favorable indica tion. The nostrils being large, open and free indicates large lungs. A pinched ami half closed nostril indi cates small or weak lungs. These, are general points of distlno tion from those of short lived tenden cies, but of course subject to the usual Individual exceptions. Still, it is well acknowledged that tlie characteristics noted are expressions of inherent po tentiality, which have been proved on I the basis of abundant statistical evl- 1 dence.—Medical Record. CnrlonN, but True. Although di(llcult to believe, it Is nevertheless true that the death of two half sisters, the daughters of the same father, occurred 170 years apart. The grandfather of tho British minis ter, Charles James Fox, Sir Stephen Fox, married in 1G54 and had a daugh ter born to him in 1055 who died In tho course of the same year. Ho had several other children who grew up I and married, but all of them died be fore the father and without issue. Sir Stephen- not wishing his large fortune to fall into the hands of distant rela tives, married again at a very advanc ed age, and his youngest daughter was born in 1727. She reached the age of ninety-eight years and died in 1825 that is, 170 years after the death of her oldest sister. As Old Enßliah LHTT. An act of parliament, passed in tho reign of George 111. and which is stili In force, exempts members of the yeo manry from the ballot for the militia, allows them to ride through a toll bar i when in uniform without paying and ' also relieves them from the tax on powder for the hair. Such privileges i were highly valued in 1804, when the j uct was passed; but, as yeomen are I not now liable for the militia ballot, as toll bars have been abolished and as | hair powder is no longer in request, these favors have ceased to have any practical value.
