the island of Jersey in front of them,
only one or two had the yersisTeuce to

Three hours before nearly everybody
had said to nearly everybody, "'..:

with most ever a humorous memory.
"Now I only hope."' said young Mr
Walford. delightedly, "that we meet

"I don't mind meeting decent folk.'

"Ah, John." sighed Mrs. Walford.
"you have no heart. I'm afraid."
"That's true," said John Walford,
stolidly.
"And aren't von ashun ''Ma AiimLi.

"Not a bit! It's your fault. Mina."
"How's that?"
"Why. you've had my heart for nearly

"Oh. John, dear." cried the young
lady, not altogether displeased, "don't
be so silly before such a lot of people."
They found a bus with the gold let
tering 'Iiand Hotel" upon it, and the
bus took a few more passengers, anil
then drove them along the quay, past
pyramids of potatoes ami inountaiiiK of
ripe-red tomatoes in crates, away iu'o
the town, on the way they were
Ktoppi-d at the 1'omuie d'Or hotel by a
bearded miing Krciicjimati in a prejios

riding a bicycle.
"I'm glad we didn't run over him."

pretty eyes with a wince of pain at the
narrow escape. "He was so good-IooW-ing."
"1 suppose." said John Walford.
thoughtfully, " that makes ail the d!f

He looked baek at the clumsy l.icv
list, who was being dusted by a short,
stout Frenchwoman, with much assidui
ty. His black straw hat with the curi'vl
brim was away some distance, and
three or four youngsters were playing
fotohall with It.
It was a singular circumstance th r.
at the very tirst Jersey excursion after

He touched up one or two letters of
the signature and looked at It admiring
ly. As tho three went tato the castle to
examine the dungeons, the abort, stout
Frenchwoman who had assisted M.
Martel after his accident came panting
to the gates. She looked at the last
entry in the visitor's book, and straight
way laughed so much that she had to
sit down on the wooden chair to re
cover her breath.
"Que e'est drole!" she exclaimed,
wiping her eyes amusedly.
The Ingratiating Martel found his re
ward In an Invitation to dinner at the
Grand. He hesitated politely to accept,
but young Mm. Walford, delighted with
the excellent manners of the young
Frenchman, pressed the request so
earnestly that John Walford was bound
to second the motion. Therefore at the
j Grand was dinner for three, and after
dinner, while John was smoking his
pipe. M. Felix Martel conducted Mrs.
' Walford to the reading room, and sat
close to her and talked and talked.
"I suppose," he said, "that In England
you have diversions In the evenings?"
"Not always." replied Mrs. Walford.
"Sometimes we are rather dull."
"That must lie so hard for you. dear
! madam. You. so charming, so spirit
uelle. so "
"Please don't say that I'm only an
ordinary woman."
"Pardon." exclaimed M. Martel. firm
ly; "you must ermlt me to repulse that
' statement." He lowered his voice. "Al
low me to say that I have never met In
, my whole life someone who has so en
chanted me."
It was wrong of young Mrs. Walford.
and she knew it was wrong, but It waa
really very, pleasant to hear this. The
great disadvantage in getting married
Is that you can only be admired by one
person, and he sometimes forgets to re
mind you of the fact with sufficient
frequency.
"Are you sure there Is not aomeone In
Paris." she asked, "who has a
right- ?"
"I wish." said Martel. "never, never
to see Paris again." He reached the
Inkstand, and took a pen and some
Grand hotel paper. "Shall I teach you
a new diversion to pass the time? Can
you write a letter full of Jove for ex
ample?" "I have written a good many to
John." said Mrs. Walford. with color In
her face.
"Happy John! Iet us see who Is the
most habile of us in writing. Iet me
write, for the fun. a letter to you. Kh?"
Mrs. Walford sat back In the com
fortable chair, while the agreeable Mar
tel wrole hastily.
"Oh. but that Is not what we Kngl'sh
people call a love letter." she said, crit
ically, when she had glanced through
the. communication which M. Martel
handed to her. A few awkward
phrases amused. "We write much
stronger epistles than that. I asur
you."
"Is It possible? I am so ignorant of
English ways. Show me how you an
swer such a letter to your lover. Write
iM. Martel laughed at his own hum on
to "My Hearest Felix' In a way that ar
Fnglish girl in love would do."
He handed her the ieii and placed
some note paper before her. She hesi
tated a moment, and then scribbled.
"There. Mr. Martel. That' how we
should do It."
He took it up quickly.
"My Dearest Felix: The time since
we last met has seemed like a hundred
centuries. How I long to see you again,
to press your hand, and to hear once
more your dear voice. Without you my
existence la not life; with you !i Is more
than life; It lg heaven.
"Iuou think sometimes of the hap
py hours that we have spent together?
1 do not think you can forget them aud
1 am sure that I never shall. Write to
rue soon. soon, and tell me once more
that you but you know. Yours always

"This Is excellent," said the dellg!i:ed
Frenchman. "Excellent."
"Now tear It up. please, and tell me
another."
"I prefer to treasure it," he said. "It
nay be ver' valuable."
She started up from her chair.
"But I insist that you "
"Do not derange yourself, my dear
Madam Walford. There i no necessi
ty. Do you play dominoes?"
"Please, please give me that letter. I
am very silly ever to have written It."
He placed It In the tail pocket of his
oat and beamed upon her.
"My dear madam, on my honor as a
Frenchman. I assure you that when I
have entirely finished with this letter I

He simulated the tearing up of the
document.
"You promise me that?"
"Madam" twith some appearance of
injured innocence!. "I have given you

ONE OF SOTHERN'S JOKES
JCntertained HiniMlf and Mrm. John
Wood in a Sparc Moment.
Mrs. John Woo.1 appeared with the
' alder Sothern iu the same company
i for several seasons, says the Itostou
1 Journal. On one occasion, while the
Tompnny was playing in Birmingham.
Mrs. Wood met Sothern ou the street.
' They were near an ironmonger's shop
: when he shook hands with her ami
jade her good morning.
"Would you mind going iu here with
' me? I want to make some small pur
i rhnscs." he said. So she accompanied

He went up to the counter aud said:
; -I waut 'Macanlay's History of Kng
; land.' "
The assistant said: "We do not sell
.woks here. This Is an ironmonger's
thop."
"Well. I'm not particular." sad
Sothern, pretending to de deaf. "I
' don't care whether It is bound In calf
or Russia."
"But this In not a Ixjokscller's," si.out
Hi the assistant.
"All right," said Sothern. "Wrap
it up neatly. Want to have It sent
down to the hotel. It's for a present
I wish to make to a relative. Put it uj,
nicely."
"We don't keep it." shouted the as
ilstant. getting red in the face, wliilf
Mrs. Wood stcpiHMt aside and took a
chair In another part of the shop, al
most overcome with suppressed laugh
ter at the cheerful, frank expression
on Sothern's face and the mad. pit;:
eled look on the shopkeeper's assistant
"Do It up as if it were for your r
mother. I don't waul anything be.t I
than that." said Sothern. "1 wo.ild
like to write my name on the fly leaf."
"Sir!" bawled the assistant at the
top of his voice, "we do not kec
lxioks."
"Very well." said the actor, quite tin
dlsturled at the emotion he was cn-at
lug. "I will wait for it."
I'nder the impression that his custom
r was either stone deaf or a lunatic
the assistant liounced off to the lower
end of the shop and asked his master to
come, saying: "I can do nothing with
the man. I think he must be off h i
head." Whereupon the principal man-lied
up to the spot where Sothern was
standing and asked very loudly: "Wha
is it. air? What d i you desire?"
"I want to buy a file." returned Soth
ern quietly, "a p'alu file about four i.r

"Certainly," said the princial. with

RECEIVED CHANGE IN NICKELS.
Sovet Salt of Memphis Woman Axainut
a Street Car l'ompnny.
Tbc Supreme Court will be called
jpou nt l:a next Hitting at Jackson to
look into the peculiar case of Mis.
t'ruti htjeld vs. the Memphis Sticc"
Hallway.
Mrs. Crutchtieid sues the street la 1
any company for $5imi damages and
(he complainants maintain that t .i-y
have such a cause as entitle them to ;'
trial on the merits of the case.
It is related that on the days of trans
net ion. Mrs. Crutclifleld. who lives in
Fort Pickering, having occasion t i
come uptown, found that she had no
other money than a bill. She tried
to get this money changed before sin
boarded the street car. She went to
the butcher with whom she deals in the
ueiglilmi-hood and offered to pay a bill
there If the butcher could change the
bill, but she could not get it changed.
So she boarded the street oar with the
bill. It Is related ou behalf of the com
plainant that she explained to the -o:i
ductor the circumstances aecou: . it",
for the necessity for offering him so
large a bill and asked him for a transf
er at Beal street. They were not bit
to settle the trouble about the bill until
they came to Madison street, when the
conductor got off the car to get the bill
changed. It is asserted that he went to
some trouble to get the bill changed
entirely to nickels. He got at the tirst
bank, so it is asserted by the complain
ant. $lo iu nickels and a $U bill, and
then went to .mother bank and got the
$! bill changed to nickels. He carried
these small coins to the passenger ami
tendered them to her.
It Is related thnt Mrs. Crutchtieid ask
eil for time In which to count the
money, but the conductor demurred,
and the other passengers protested
agninst the delay, so that Mrs. Crutch
field said the car might go to the end of
the line and she would count the moncy
en route. It Is related that after she
had counted the money over once she
concluded that she was l.l." short, ami
tiHn making demand for the balm c
the conductor handed it over to her.
She had not yet finished counting the
money when the car rcachi-d the end of
the Main street line and turned for th
round trip. Then the conductor de
manded a second fare from her, where
at she protested, and after some argu
ment, when the conductor d -clued
that she would have to pay another
nickel or get off. she got off the car.
These being the averments of the law
suit from the complainant's standpoint,
it Is intended to go to the Supreme
Court to ascertain whether or not such
circumstances do not constitute a cause
for action. Memphis Sclmeter.

"Speaking about 'ringers.' " said one

f the National Trotting Association.
reminds me of a yarn that was told
iiy 'Dan' Deiinison, one of the queerest
tin I shrewdest old characters that ever
had to do with horses. 'Dan' was out
in California at the time, and had a
hance to pick up for a little money a
very fast mare that had raced up to
her record until she was unable to win
in the free-for-all classes. Then she
was sold for a roadster, ami practically
lost sight of. 'Dan' took her down
Into Southern California after he had
'bishoped' her a bit. hogged her mane,
ami fixed her so that uo one would ever
recognize her as the speedy mare of
ye rs before. He hail his son drive her,
had entered her In one of the slow class
es as a 4-yenr-old mare, and had faked
up some sort of a edigree for her. As
a matter of fact, she was a dozen years
old at least. 'Dan' wanted to have 'a
killing' with her. and so had told his
hoy to 'lay her up' for the first two
heats, and let the hoys back the other
horses well before he put his money
down. The mare was full of speed on
the day of the race, and the only way
the lad could make her lose the first
heat waa to carry her to a break. He
did that well, hut the Iwtfors were a
bit afraid of the unknown mare. So
It was absolutely necessary to the car
rying out of his plans to lose the next
heat. In the heat the old mare would
not break, but trotted as steadily as
If she never knew how to do anything
else. The driver had. therefore, to pull
her outright. That pulling was the un
doing of the Job. for. as 'Dan' -put it.
'the boy pulled the old mare so hard
that her month was so wide open that
every one on the grand stand could see
every one of her teeth. Every sharp
could see then that she was at least a
dozen years old. They made a howl
alsiut her being a 4-year-old. and she
was thrown out of the race, and the
'hance for a big winning was done for.'

Somehow or other we never seem to
Ihrnk of royalty as really humao In the
a-ay of playing practical Jokea or be
MTing Mhe eowmou, ordinary foika. A
flaring photographer at Copenhagen
baa anapped his camera on royalty at
play and obtained some pictures that
are not only amusing, but which show
the extremely human side of those des
tined to sit In high places.
King Christian of Denmark, aa tn
juniors all prolwibly know, Is grand
father to the Czar of Russia and the
children of the Prince of Wales. Every
year at least there is a joyous family
gathering at Copenhagen, to which all
look forward with the greatest pleas
ure. It was at one of these reunions
that the photographer did his work
while waiting for the various guests
to assemble for a group picture.
One of the pictures represents th
Czar running one of his Iiunish cousins
down the marble steps of the palace,
holding the young prince by the nape
of his neck and the seat of his trousers:
another shows the Czar In full flight,
hotir ...r-iio.l hv this same prince. Still
another picture represents the .rand j
Iuke Micbnel or Kiissin hiimmik
the shoulder of his mint, the Princess
of Wales, to tickle the ear of his sister,
the Grand iHicliess Xenia. There were
oinnv others of the same sort, alw.ut
seventy In all. and the photograptar
aid nothing alHiul them until he plae
them on exhibition iu his window. Roy
lltv heard of it. of course, and two of
those most interested. Princess Vic
toria of Wales and Grand Iuke Ml
?hiifl. went down to Investigate.
Instead of being angry, they wen
highly amused, and insistnl that the
photographer bring the pictures to the
palace to show to the rest. Everybody
enjoyed them, and before he left the
photographer received orders for sev
eral sets of the pictures, which have
lieen distributed among appreciative,
royal relatives. It is a pleasure to,
learn that modern rulers are not only!
as human aa the rest of the world, but j
slso that they can appreciate a joke, j
?ven when they are the victims anil the 1
whole world knows It.
The Hood und the Hat.
Said the Hat to the Hood
As they hung ou the wall:
. "You poor, common thing!
Not a bow to your string.
" And no Hnipons st all!
I pity you greatly:
And what lire these chores
Taking place out of doors
That I hear alioiit lately?
They're something plebeian. I'm certair
of that"
Said the Hat
"What chores?" quoth the Hood.
"Can it be you don't know
Vhat fowls must have food
Or their feathers won't grow?
And the tires must have wood;
So my mistress goes out
Twice a day. with a shout.
And frisks like a colt as she helps Mr.
Joe.
If she snowballs Iiiin, too.
Why, the most that I do
Is to keep off the cold till she gets in
glow;
For there's nothing like laughing to wars,
up the blood"
Quoth the Hood.
"Dear me:" cried the Hat,
"I am glad of. onr chat "
when I'm on her head she seenir
vain and all that!"

"Of course, she's got real hair!"
"Then why don't she cry when sh

Pet Rabbits.
Most children are fond of keeping
rabbits. The varieties moot generally
preferred are the tame ones Hima
layan and Dutch rabbits and Belgian
hares as these are hardy nnd not ex
pensive. They must be kept in a warm
sheltered place, afld lie provided with
roomy hutches and a grass run if pos
sible. Rabbits are very fastidious ani
mals, and will scarcely ever touch
mnsty or stale food. Variety In food it
essential to their health.
Too much green food is hurtfu.,
.'herefore give a little grain food once
In a day. They may have peas which
have been soaked, nnd dried oats,
tares, hay, bran, sliced carrots, turnips
lawn mowings, dandelion, milk, thistlt
and a little oil cake occasionally. Giv
water night and morning, but do no:
leave the pan In the hutch. Plenty of
clean straw must he supplied, and thf
hutch kept perfectly clean.
Hena Hatch the Kate.
In China bens are employed to hatch
dsh eggs. These are scaled in an egg
shell and placed under the unsuspect
ing hen for a few days. The contents
of the shell are then emptied into a
shallow pool, where they enn bask lr
the sunshine until the minnows art
strong enough to be turned Into a laki
or river.

Itching Burning Scaly
Blotchy Humors
Instantly Relieved
and Speedily Cured by
The itching and burning I suffered imny feet and limbs for three years
were terrible. ' At night they were worse aud would keep me awake a
greater part of the night. I consulted doctor after doctor, as I wa9 travel
ling on the road most ol my time, also one of our city doctors. None of the
doctors knew what the trouble was. I got a lot of the different samples of
the medicines I had been using. I found them of so many different kinds
that I concluded I would have to go to a Cincinnati hospital before I would
get relief. I had frequently been urged to try Cl'TICL'KA KKMKDIKS,
but I had no faith in them. My wife finally prevailed upon me to try them.
Presto. What a change! I am now cured, aud it in a permanent cure. I
