he suddenly nudged me and pointed up
the street
"Only a few rods away, advancing
toward us, was the moat dazzling vision
of loveliness that ever blinded the eyea

skipping along with a step ao light
that It would not have crushed a flow

golden hair, brown eyes flashing under
Ions dark lashes, and her complexion
was absolutely transparent
"Her faultless form and features, and
the mingled haughtiness and grace of
her manner and movements would
have attracted admiring attention In
a crowd of the world's fairest women,
and it Is no wonder that we rough aol

In a husky whisper he requested me to

"We returned to camp badly demor

"Nothing was said against her char

In a peculiar way when they spoke of
her.
"Our cavalry bad to leave that night,
and some of the officers rode off with
heavy hearts. If they could have se

ew- . later, wneu we were

"Kilpatrick drove us northward, but
we were frequently overtaken by ref

our fascinating siren bad captivated a

"You may Imagine our rage and de

had left Columbia with the invaders.
She had departed under the protection
of one of the officers, and traveled In
great state, riding In a fine carriage
belonging to the father-in-law of Gen

"It was a long time after that before

"In the course of time she returned to
Paris, where she enslaved a wealthy

"The fair South Carolinian retained

NAUGHTINESS AT DINNERS.
It Ia BecoaBlaar More Cosaamoa ia Nan
York's Swell Set,
In Ttow of the disclosure which
hare been made regarding the Indecent

York recently, it Is not without Inter
eat to note that the practice of having
aa entertainers at swell aoclety din

obtained the dramatic item of theil
dinners from one firm alone, "and il
was not such a remarkably good week,
either," aald tbe senior member of th
firm.
This custom of entertaining guesU

fifteen years, and mat winter found 11

anywhere from $50 to $1,600 for an

"Sooner or later most of the season's
domestic and Imported naughtiness
gets into the homes of the rich and the
fashionable. Generally the real wick
ed ones are booked to do their turns
before a small, selected company of
guests just the intimate friends of the
host or hostess, who can be trusted to
keep what they have seen to them
selves. "Curious thing about it, too," thi
agent went on; "our best busrness is

Fulton's First Fare and Passenger.
There was one little Incident in Rob
ert Fulton's life about which few peo
ple know and which Fulton aenr for
got. It took place shortly before the
return trip of his famous boat's voy
age byrfj-jj-rtoe-Uudson river. At
the time all Albany flocked to the
wharf, says Harper's Round Table,
which relates the story, to see the
strange craft, but so timorous were
they that few cared to board her. One
gentleman, however, not only boarded
her, but sought out Fulton, whom he
found in the cabin, and the following
conversation took place:
"Thia is Mr. Fulton, I presume?"
"Yes, sir."
"Do you return to New York with
this boat?"
"We shall try to ge back, air."
"Have you any objection to my re
turning with you?"
"If you wish to take the chances with
ua, sir, I have no objection."
"What I the fare?"
After a moment's hesitation, Fulton
replied, "Six dollars." And when that
amount was laid in his hand he gazed
at It a long time, and two big tears
rolled down his cheeks. Turning to
the passenger, he said:
"Excuse me, sir, but this is the first
pecuniary reward I have received for
all my exertion in adapting steam to
navigation. I would gladly commemo
rate the occasion wtth a little dinner,
but I am too poor now even for that.
If we meet again, I trust It will not be
ie case."
As hustory relates, the voyage termi
nated successfully. Four years later
Fulton was sitting In the cabin of the
Ole-uont, then called the North River,
when a gentleman entered. Fulton
gavneed at him, and then sprang up
and gladly shook bis hand. It waa his
first paasenger, and over a pleasant lit
tle dinner Fulton entertained bla guest
with the history of his aucces), and
ended with aaylng that the first actual
recognition of his usefulness to bis fellow-men
was the $8 paid to him by his
first passenger.
The Old Greek Costume.
Men often wore the hlmatlon alone,
without chiton. The chlamys, another
rectangular garment, shorter than the
hlmatioo. weighted at the corners, and
fastened by a brooch so that one corner
hung down In front, waa worn by men,
with or without tbe chiton. It is espe
cially well shown In tbe horsemen or
the frieze of the Parthenon.
Occasionally Diana, or an Amazon,
weora the chlamys, but it is the dis
tinctive garment of tbe young Greek.
Bands, belts and fillets were much
worn. Men and women wound fillets
around their heads.. Women wore, of
ten under their chiton, a breast band
adjusted below the bottom, not to eom
preHS the form, but to protect the or
gans. Indeed, there was no tempta
tion to compress the waist, the flowing
drapery veiling the waist. The band
which confined the short, or caught up
the long chiton, was also of cloth, hut
the outer belt, holding In the loose
fold of the upper part of the long chi
ton, was often of gold enrlahed with
jewels, and always beautifully adorn
ed. Great care was taken of the hair; in
deed, a mysterious virtue was suppos
ed to lie in the locks, which, carefully
waabad aad .perfutnad, were one of
the bodily graces of tbe Greek. Women
often wore elaborate bead-dresses:
many were revived in the latter part
of the Eighteenth century and the first
of the Nineteenth, Out of door the
head was covered either by folds of
the peplo brought over the bead and
around the throat, or by a separate

In one corner of a crowded fair in
Boston a correspondent noticed a group
of small boys who appeared to be im
nipueely Interested in the contents of
a showcase. Under the glazed cover of
he cose were combs of honey and live
bees at work. By and by one little fel
low leaned over too far and broke a
Dane of glass with his elbow.
Tbe accident alarmed the boys,
though no one but the unobserved wit
ness knew of it beside themselves. Pre
tending to be quite absorbed In other
objecta, tho man watched them and
overheard all they said.
"I'm going to find the superintendent
and tell him," insisted the little of
fender. "Oh, come on! He'll make you pay
It'll take more money than you've got
Let's get out, and say nothing. Tou
I didn't mean to do it, and nobody'll
' know."
I Tbe culprit seemed to be in a min
ority of one, but be held to his resolu
tion without flinching.
"I'm going to find him," he said,
stoutly. "Will you wait for me?"
The gentleman who waa noting the
conduct of the boys expected a stam
pede as soon aa the glass-breaker start
ed on his errand; but one boy, more
heroic than the rest, whispered, "Let
bold on."
A good many Impatient minutes
passed before the little fellow
who broke the glass came back with
the superintendent.
Tbe man waa kind-hearted, and
when the awful question came, "What
shall I have to pay?" he refused to
charge anything for the damage.
"You're an honest lad, and we'll call
It square. Only be more careful next
time," he said.
The scared boys all had a grin ot
their faces now; and possibly tbe hero
of the Incident felt an Inch taller be
cause he knew he bad done an honor
able act. Certainly he had made hia
companions feel somewhat ashamed,
and they were the better for It.
Was he an "average boy" of Boston
or of any other American city? If we
could be certain that each of the other
little men in that group would have
done as he did in the same case, it
would help answer the question, and
quite relieve the mind of an unpleasant
uncertainty.

have the benefit of the doubt; but re

Prejudices, which are from within,
cause more poverty than calamities,
which are from without. Many a man
whoae life has been disturbed by physi
cal disaster has been brought to desti
tution by prejudices, which are the
thieves of mental and spiritual treas
ure, as procrastination ia the thief of
time. We pity the feeble creature who
baa been prejudiced against applea by
an untoothsome crab apple; but those
who are by no means feeble-minded
have been prejudiced against sentiment
by sentimentality, against emotion by
emotionality. And yet, without senti
ment one would not be susceptible to
noble and tender feeling; without emo
tion thought would never be "In a
glow." He who conquers a prejudice
enlarges his borders, and recovers
many stolen goods.

A touch of your unapurred foot'a enough
To set it galloping fast and free.

An amusing incident occurred in a

"play house."

For a time all was satisfactory, but
after a while Mollie became dissatis

she looked up to ber mother and said:
"Thay, mamma, tan Dod do anything

"Why yes, dear, God is the Ruler of
the whole world."
"Do ev'ybody have to do dust aa He

"Yes, pet."
"Ia He the boas of ev'yfing?" ahe per
sisted. "Why, yea, dear. Why do yoa ask?"
"Oh, nuffln, I dest wanter to know,"
and she turned to the other two chil
