The duke and JIins O'Reilly, who wns dressed for tho oociision, got nlc-Tig famously, Miss O'lteilly doing most of the listening. efore two hours had passed the duke come out of tho parlor mid said to Mr. O'Reil ly: "Mnrjraret and I love each other devotedly. Will you give mo her hand in marriage?" "Certainly, duke," answered Mr. O'Reilly, gazing up at his cigar smoke. "Margaret has always long ed for a title. Can I send for a cler gyman and hnvo the ceremony per formed now?" The duke was delighted with this, "of course, and answered heartily in the affirmative. So they were married, and the drinks were on tho duke. Indian apolis Sun. He Won. 9 Jiohbii; (on a week's visit from . town to his uncle's farm) Oh, un- ; clo, such a game!

"Your constituents are getting annoyed with you," said the faithful adviser. "For what reason ?" inquired Sen ator Sorghum. "They ray you haven't done a thing to discourage the trusts that are becoming so rich and arrogant." "You go hack and tell my constit uents they wrong mo. Tell them that whenever 1 have come in con tact with a trust 1 have done all in my power to take some of its money away from it." Washington Star. The Exception. She They say that women never tell of any defects they may possess.

"Well, if you haven't still got that red vest!" exclaimed the jay bird when he met tho robin. "They arc still tho proper thing," answered the robin. "At least the jays have not taken to them yet." The early worm here putting in an appearance, society chitchat was laid aside for the practice of benev olent assimilation. Indianapolis Tress. Railroad Advocate.

A ilock of 1J0 has just cleared 1,800 acres near lloeatur. They eat anything in tho way of leaves, buds and small shoots, and when a goat conies to a sapling he cannot break down alone four or five others join him, throw their weights on tho trunk and bend it over, while others climb on the branches. i 1 ffl Doilies Refus-s to O've Way Under Fachion'e Et'icl. While the edict ha gone forth that only while embroidery may ha used for the dinner table, thero ore many housekeepers t.lm refuse tr irivo up the beautiful doilies em broidered in floral designs that have been such a feature of tahlo decoration for several years past. The stamped linen designs are sell ing in tho department stores rpiito as well as ever, and tho manufactur ers of tho silks keep adding new Rnd beautiful colors to their collections, which actually rival in their tinting the natural bloom of tho rose and the violet. For those who follow tho custom of serving breakfast and luncheon on a polished table top with the doi lies spread upon it without the usual cloth nothing can take tho place of the exquisite floral centerpieces and plate mats. As wedding gifts these sets, embroidered in tho favorite blossoms of tho bride, are very much in evidence, forming a pleasant re lief to tho cut glass and silver which make such a formidable array on these occasions. An exquisite set made to order for an Easter bride consists of 20 pieces done on tho finest linen edged with lace. Tho design is n dclioato drawn clusjer of white violets with but little foliage. The bunch of blossoms varies upon each piece. The flowers are done in a dead white Japanese -floss, with a shading of palest green toward tho center of each violet. Concerning Windows. It is only in the apartments of the exceptional few that windows must be urranged with reference to a good outlook. Unless you live on a square or a park or overlook tho river you are not apt to have a pleasing expanse to consider, nor need you study carefully the interior of your room as part of a general lino of construction leading up to a particular view outside, as when a wide window, for instance, opens di rectly on to a grove of oak trees. Perfect freedom of access to win dows does not have to be so care fully considered in your arrange ment of things, says Harper's Ba zar. Your windows are, with their hangings, really a largo part of the general framing of tho room, as it were, as tho walls and tho doors are ono more panel in your wall sur face to be decorated according to given rules. Tho particular prob lem confronting tho housekeeper, then, is a question of tones and lights, of agreeable shades not only harmonizing with tho colors of the room and making tho interior in which you arc temporarily housed, with its surrounding windows and doors, one composite whole, every part blending and balancing with the other, but producing as well a restful impression upon you when you look directly toward the light. Useful Inventions. Inventors are coming signally to the aid of women in tho last few years in tho realm of housework. Any number of apparently trifling things have been brought out to lighten labor, which, though seem ingly small, are nevertheless most helpful. Tho dainty housewife can now provide most wonderfully tempting ' dishes for her table in the 'matter of fancifully cut vegetables and fruits. Formerly it was a task to I daunt the most energetic to under take to serve potatoes or other veg ! etables cut in fancy designs, but j now, by means of a new vegetable ' 6liecr, she can turn out squares, dia i monds, circles or ovals all perforat ed in small designs at almost a mo ! lnent's notice. A dish of 6uch po ; tatoes would bring appetite to the most dyspeptic. Cucumbers, rad : islies, beets, bananas and many oth- er things that figure on tho menu I can be thus daintily served, and a i luncheon becomes a much prettier : uffair with several of the dishes in such pretty form. A Luncheon Dish. Boil half a dozen eggs 20 min utes, drop into cold water, peel and keep warm. Make a thick border of good, well seasoned mashed potatoes around the edge of the platter, press the eggs into the border, points up, and set in a hot oven for three min utes. Fill the center with string beans boiled and buttered or young carrots stewed in mutton broth or brussol sprouts boiled very tender; or the filling may be of cold meat cut in dice and heated with a can of button mushrooms. Whatever it is idd it quickly, garnish tho border outs'dcr with sprigs of cress and serve very hot. This is a substantial dish for luncheon or supper and not unworthy consideration for o Sun day tea. French breadmakers assert that water is preferable to milk in bread mixing, because it gives a fine, firm crust. A little mashed potato add ed to tho bread spongo will make the bread whiter and keep it moist touri-T . An Odd English Law. It is an odd fact that in England the cultivation of tobacco as a crop is prohibited by a tax so high on ev ery acre sown with tobacco seed that no Englishman could afford to grow it, except as an expensive fad. The origin of this prohibition is et ill more curious. It originated in tho reign of Charles II, when parlia ment passed a law forbidding the growth of tobacco in England for the express purposo of encouraging trade wit the now oniony of Vir ginia. . !
