A VARIATION I
~. By ...
ROBERT JERMAIN COLE
Copyright, 1005, by Hubert Jcrmnlu Colo
"Men are such monotonous creatures.
They inarch together like that always."
The girl waved her band lightly toward
a (lie of mllltla that paraded down
Fifth avenue. Her companion did not
answer Immediately.
"You must reduce your complaint to
specific charge*. Miss Breen," said the
young lawyer at length. "What, for
ex...nple, renders man so tiresome to
you?"
"I'm sure I don't know what makes
htm so. I only know that be Is," re
turned the girl. "He—l mean they—all
,wear forever the same kind of clothes,
walk with the same stride, stick to tho
same amusements"—
"Are true to the some friends," fin
ished her listener for her, "and, worst
of all, persist In expressing admiration
for tlie same girl In the same words.
You must find It monotonous."
"Dou't be ]>ersonal, Mr. Roscommon,"
protested his companion, with a blush.
"I am discussing fact, aud that Is al
ways personal," replied the man*. "It
Is true, Isn't It?" Roscommon had a
quiet habit of persistence. He did not
talk much, but what be did say was
apt to start his companion Into a fran
tic garrulity of self defense.
"What do you mean?" asked the girl.
"You certainly would not accuse me
of bragging about the number of my
admirers. I was only speaking In a
general way."
Boscommon was silent, and the girl
went on:
"I refuse to testify against myself,
but you must give me credit for know
ing a few other women. Besides, I
have read the novels written by crea
tures of your own sex. They ought to
say a good word for the lugeuulty of
man, yet their heroes all make love In
precisely the same way."
They turned as they walked Into
Fifty-seventh street, where Miss Breen
had lived with her aunt since her fa
ther's death. She had always gone
with a rather gay set, but a few months
after she came out her father had lost
most of his money. For the last three
years that be lived be Insisted on her
accepting many Invitations, although
they were able do little entertaining.
Her liveliness of speech and manner, a
trifle defiant, masked a hurt pride. She
won followers easily among the men—
too eaHlly to suit her high spirit. They
gave lier flattery In plenty, which com
forted her as little as gold offered to a
starving woman. She was all heart
and had almost no vanity. When her
father died she was hungry for some
one to lavish her affections upon. Yet
no one had divined this. The Impres
sion had gone &bout tbat she would
marry anybody for money. Sbo bated
poverty, out she hated a lie still worse.
When they entered the house she took
off her hat and stood a moment beßlde
a table.
"You may sit down,"- she said con
descendlngly to Boscommon. "I shall
stand up awhile. You haven't made
me tired yet."
"If you were one of these unvarying
men how would you propose ton girl?"
asked the young man gravely. Miss
Breen promptly sat down. After she
bad rested and meditated for half a
minute, she answered:
"It would depend on the girl. That's
the very point. Instead of having a
formula, such as you men hand dotfn
from father to son, I should study the
nature of the woman and find words
to appeal to her and to her alone. If
she loved flowers, I'd Bpeml my last
dime on a rose. They soy a battle was
lost onco for want of a horseshoe.
More women's hearts are lost for want
of a chocolate drop than are dreamed
of In your philosophy."
"I have no philosophy that will fit
the race of women," corrected the law
yer.
"I'm glad to hear you admit your Ig
norancel" laughed Miss Breen.
"I did not say I was Ignorant. 1
merely saTd 1 una no theories," ob
served Boscommon.
"Very well, here Is o fact for yon
I know a man that told a girl of his
ambition to be a painter. Then be
asked her to marry him. Now, this
girl didn't care a hairpin tor art, and
the only Idea she bad about It was
that artists wore always poor anil
shabby. She was Just ready to fall In
love with him, and If she had It
wouldn't have mattered what he did
for a living. If he only bad sense
enough to tell her how prettily her hair
■hone In the lamplight he wouldn't be
a sour old bachelor now, aud she"—
"It looks Just as well In the day
light," remarked Boacommou, address
lug the mirror behind Madge.
"I hope the subject doesn't bore you,
Miss Breen," he went on, "but you
, have made an Impossible condition.
t«i M f,* "f»n untold ync w vxl.
That is well If he can. But now sup
pose the one thing he knows about her
Is thnt be wants to know more. Per
haps the very mystery of her nature
I attracts him."
| "Then let htm surprise ber Into some
revelatlou of herself,"
| They wece silent for a loug time aft
er this. The short winter duy was nl
most gone. Tbey could yet see each
■ other through the twilight.
1 "Miss Breen, did you ever hear that
I was a millionaire?" The question
came from Koscouiuion with startllug
suddeuuess. Ills tone wns harsh aud
bad a ring of self satisfaction In It.
Madge Breen turned Impulsively and
then looked away, but not before he
was aware of the hurt, dlsappolutod
expression lu her wide open eyes,
j "No, and I hate you for telling me
I now," she flashed.
| "I did not tell you. I only usked a
questlou." The harshness was all gono
from his tone. For the first time that
] afternoon Roscommon's voice gAw
tender. Ho leaned toward bis compan
j lon and said:
"They told me you cared only for
! money—thut you liud no heart. I knew
| they lied, but I wanted you to prove It
I to me. You have shown me the girl I
have been waiting to see. You huvo
taught me the way to woo her. I am
not rich, Madge, and If I were I should
never dream that money could buy
you. You say that all men nre alike.
All but .one, you mean. The man you
love will be transfigured. I ask you
to be my wife, dear, not because of
what I can give you, but because of
what I can tnke. A man with any oth
er ambition would not have room to
■ keep the treasure of your love. You
' can do what you will with me. The
only thing I shall boast of Is a bound-
I less cupaclty for being loved. Do you
want such a man?"
| "And you haven't once said, 'I love
you,'" she exclaimed with a touch of
amusement In ber voice. "That Is a
I slight variation from the usual form.
Do you suspect I shall do It all?"
"You would have to try me to find
out, no matter what I might say," re
plied Boscommon.
"Well," she breathed softly and then
paused. He rose and walked to her
chair and waited, with his heiyl bent
toward hers.
"Please," she whispered, "If you don't
love me never let me find It out."
RUINS OF ST. PAUL'S.
Orlgla of MaeaDlay's Phrase In u
Eighteenth Ceatnry Poem.
It has long been understood that the
real inventor of Macaulay's famous
fc'ew Zeulaiuler was Horace Walpole,
who, In a letter to Mason, written in
1774, said: "At last some curious trav
eler from Lima will visit England and
give a description of the ruins of St
Paul's, like the editions of tialbes and
Palmyra." But Mr. Bertram Dobell
writes to the London Academy giving
I the idea an earlier date. He finds it
embodied in this old title page:
Poems, by a young Nobleman, of Dis
tinguished Abilities, lately deceased; par
tlcularly, The State of England, and the
once flourishing City of London. In a
letter from an American Traveler, Dated
from the Ruinous Portico of St. Paul's,
In the year 2199, to a Friend settled In
Boston, the Metropolis of the Western
Empire. Also Sundry Fugitive Pieces,
principally wrote whilst upon his Travels
on the Continent. [Motto from Juvenal.3
London, 1780.
Mr. Dobell explains that, though the
book is dated 1780, the poem in it on
London is dated March 21, 1771. He
attributes it to the profligate second
Lord Lyttelton. Here is one of his ex
tracts from the composition:
And now thro' broken paths and rugged
ways,
Uncultivated regions, we advane'd
Towards fam'd Augusta's towers, on the
Thames
\*Whose clear broad stream glides smooth
ly thro' the vale)
Embank'd, and stretching o'er the level
plain,
For many a mile her gilded spires were
While Britain yet was free—alas! how
chang'd.
How fallpn from that envy'd height;
what time
She rul'd the subject nations, and beheld
The Spaniard crouch beneath her spear,
and all
Tho Gallic lilies crlmson'd o'er with
blood.
Extingulsh'd are their glories, and her
sun
That once enllghten'd Europe with his
beams,
Bunk In the West Is set. and ne'er again
Shall o'er Britannia spread his orient
These were my thoughts whilst thro* a
falling heap
Of shapeless ruins far and wide dlffus'd.
Paul's great Cathedral, from her solid
base,
High tow'rlng to the sky, by heav'ns
command
Amidst the universal waste preserv'd
Struck my astonish'd view.
On this fair object my flx'd eye was kept
In pleasing meditation, whilst my guide,
A poor emaciate Briton, led me on
Through streets, and squares, and falling
palaces,
(Where here and there a habitat wu
seen)
To where stood once amongst tho peo

MISSIONARY RIDGE.
How the Scone of a Torrlble Battle
Originally Got Its Name.
Stretching for miles along the east
ern border of the city, picturesque and
pleasing to view is Missionary ridge.
How well that name i3 known from
the hemlocks of Maine to the tlowers
of Florida, and yet how different from
its name are the assoeiates one gives
it when it Is pronounced! In history
it is recorded as being the scene of one
of the fiercest conflicts of the civil war,
but to the people who kifow the origin
oi' the name it Is a monument to the
memory of a band of devoted, self sac
rificing Christian men who, braving
the hardships of emigration not for the
love of gain, but to help their fellow
men, built the Brainard mission on the
picturesque heights known by the name
of Missionary ridge.
It was in 1817 Uiat the Rev. Cyrus
Kingsbury, Alnsworth P. Blunt and
the Kev. John Vail tirst viewed the site
of their mission. They were sent here
by the American board of commission
ers for foreign missions, and the samo
board liad provided for the erection of
a mission, including school buildings
nnd a home for the missionaries. But
the contractors failed in their contract,
and the missionaries were left without
money and without eyen shelter. But
by energetic efforts they reated a mis
sion school and built a mill on the
banks of Chickamauga creek. The mill
race, nearly a mile loug, Is still visible.
The iiiiil was purchased by Phllamon
Bird iii 1852. lie tore down the small
structure and built what is now know*
i as Bird's mill.
I On May 27, 1810, the president of the
United States, James Monroe, appeared
nt the door of the mission unannounced,
lie was accompanied by General
GaJnes. Although surprised by his vis-
It, the missionaries were ready to re
ceive him, and he complimented them
ion their work and in glowing terms
I praised the beautiful location of the
mission. The Brainard mission was
I used until the Indians left. It did an
immense amount of good, and at one
! time there were more than 500 Indian
' children being taught beneath Its roof.
I The Lord's supper was observed for
the last time on Aug. 1!>, 1838.
i In the old mission cemetery east of
the ridge, overgrown with weeds and
forgotten by almost everybody, is a
little monument on which are the fol
lowing words:
"Here lie the remains of Samuel
Worcester, D. I)., pastor o? the Taber
nacle church, Salem, Mass., first secre
tary of the American board of commis
sioners for foreign missions. Born
I 1770; died June 7, 1821."—Chattanooga
