Monsieur," said the unknown bearer of one of those honest faces which are the typo of the country man, "my cousin lias talked a great deal of your talent for painting por traits, and being about to make a voyage to the colonies, where I am delegated by the sugar-refiners of the city of Nantes, I wish to leave a remembrance of myself with my family. That Is why I have come to find you." "Holy providence!" murmured Schaunard. "Marcel, give a chair to Monsieur " "Blancheron," replied the strang er; "Blancheron of Nantes, delegate of the sugar industry, former mayor of V , captain the National Guard and author of a pamphlet on the sug ar question." "I am very much honored to have been selected by you," Bald the artist, Inclining himself before the delegate, of the refiners. "How do you wish to have your portrait?" "In miniature, like that," replied Monsieur Blancheron, Indicating a portrait In oils; because, for the dele gate, as for many others, that which Is not a house-painting Is miniature; there is nothing between. Philosophers vs. Oysters. A Rrhaunard and Marcel, who had teen at work since morning, sudden ly stopped. "Gods! I'm hungry," said Schaun ard and ho added, carelessly, "don't we breakfast some time to-day?" Marcel showed great asionisnmeni it 'this question. "Since when have Te breakfastod two days in succes iloa?" said he. "Yesterday was Thursday," and he finished his re iponse by designating wUh his maul jtlck that commandment of the cburch which refers to meat on Fri day. Schaunard found nothing to say to that, and set to work again at his picture, which represented a plain on which a red tree and a blue tree were clasping branches being a transparent allusion to the charms of friendship from a very philosoph ical standpoint. Just then the porter knocked at the door. He brought a letter to Marcel. "Three sous to collect," said he. "Are you Bure?" replied the art ist. "All right, we will owe them to you;" and he shut the door In his far?. Marcel took the letter and broke the seal. At the first words, he put himself to capering about the studio In an acrobatic dance, singing, at the top of his voice, a popular students' son; ot the day, which indicated with him the very apex of Joy. "Loort here," said Schaunard, feel iD4 nlready symptoms of mental alienation, "if you don't dry up I'll play the allegro of my symphony on the Influence of blue In the arts;" lie went on to the piano. This threat produced the effect of a Orop of cold water falling into a boiling liquid, calming Marcel as by enchantment. "Read that!" said he, passing the letter to his friend. It was an Invitation to dinner from a deputy patrons of the art in gen eral, and of Marcel In particular, who had painted the portrait of his coun try house. "It 13 for to-day," said Schaunard. "Wlint a pity that tho ticket isn't good for two. But, come to think of it. your deputy supports the min istry. You can't, you ought not, to accept. Your principles forbid you eating bread soaked In the sweat of the people." "Bali:." said Marcel; "my deputy belongs to the left centre, and voted against the government the other day. Besides, he Is going to give me an order, and has promised to intro duce me in society. And then, you see, it Is Friday; and I am hungry enough to eat a raw dog, and I must dine." "There aro yet other obstacles," replied Schaunard, a. little jealous of the good fortune which had be fallen his friend. "You can't go to a swell dinner in a red blouse and a longshoreman's hat." "I will borrow some clothes from Rodolpho or Colllne." "Bah! Have you forgotten that we have passed the twentieth of the mouth, and that at that epoch the clothes of those gentlemen are spouted?" "I will, at least, find a black coat aoraewhere about here by Ave o'clock," said Marcel. "It tool: mo three weeks to find one when I went to my cousin's wed atng; and that was early in Janu ary." "Well, I will go as I am," replied Marcel, Deriding across the room, it shall never be seld that a mlser--e question of etiquette prevented taking my Hist stop in society." Good," saJd Schaunard, taking "inch pleasure in the chagrin of his mend; ' but wha about the boots?" Marcel wont out in a state of agi tation impossible to describe. Toward two o'clock he returned, loaded uown with a-paper collar. "That is all I can find." said he, piteous);.-. "It was hardly worth while run . about for that," responded llrl , tT "We llave PPr nu6b V make d0i"n collars " hi3lM...d?.V"!" aald Marcel- 'earing effect We0,18ht t0 avm" fleets between us." and he com- "Yes, monsieur, I can boast of that. Horrors!" murmured he to himself, "I am denying my gods." "That Is worth mentioning, young' man." replied tho delegate, .In put-1 ting on the dressing-gown which had such a noble origin. "Hang the gentleman's coat in the wardrobe," Bald Schaunard to his friend, with a significant wink. "I say," murmured Marcel, in leap ing Into his prey, and designating Blancheron, "some style nbout him.. If we could only keep a little of' him." "I will try; but dreBs quickly and run. Oet back here by ten o'clock, and I'll keep him till then. And don't' you forget to bring mo something in your pocket." "I will bring a pineapple," said Marcel, going out. He dressed himself hurriedly. The coat fitted like a glove, and he went out by the other door, Schaunard put himself to work. As It grew dark, MonBleur Blanch eron heard six o'clock Btrlke, and re membered that ho had not dined. He so remarked to the painter. "I am In tho same fix; but to oblige you I will let It go to-night, al though I was invited to dine In the Faubourg Saint-Germain," said Schaunard. "But we can't disturb ourselves; that would compromise the resemblance." He turned to his work. "However," sard he, carelessly, "we could dine here without disturbing ourselves. There is nn excelent res taurant down stairs, and they could send up whatever we wanted. "'And Schaunard waited the effect of hla trio of plurals. "An excellent Idea," said Monsieur Blancheron; "and, In return for the suggestion, would you do me the honor of keeping mo company at lable?" Schaunard bowed. "Hurrah!" Bald he to himself, "this Is a man worth knowing; a veritable envoy of providence. Will you select the bill of fare?" he asked. "You will oblige me by doing It yourself," said Blancheron.

A girl recently returned from a series of visits asked not to be ques tioned as to how much she had en- Joyed It, as she had been living In the divorce zone. "In every family in those places, and I went to five colonies," she said, "there had been a divorce, and the one topic was the 'heart hunger that had made one or the other seek fresh fields.' I could not quite understand why any woman should be 'hungry for love and sym pathy' when endowed with a decent husband and children, or why it was always the most eligible bachelor that was hungered for." New York Tribune. meets tho fastening at the shoulder. Philadelphia Ledger. Old Enough to Marry. When a girl has reached eighteen she is old enough to marry, says Dr. Slaughter, chairman of the council of the London Eugenics Education Society. Men and women of the best types should for the good of the race marry early, though not too early. The healthiest children are those born when tho mothers are be tween the ages of twenty and thirty. The father should be a few years old er than the motlu i . The trouble with the race, Dr. Slaughter says, Is that women don't select their husband? with any thought of producing the best chil dren. They are looking for money, material comforts and all sorts of artificialities enter into the selection. "Rational choosing of mates does not exclude sentiment," he says, and he adds that If mercenary motives aro eliminated the right sort of man will be chosen early In hU twenties. Dr. Slaughter doesn't nddress any rebukes to the men who marry wom en for a pretty face without stopping to ask what is behind it, or to the men there may be a few who are looking out fot the dot.

LITERARY philosopher once Bald that an oyster never made a mistake. There was greater pro fundity in this aphorism than would appear at first glance. Making mistakes is a sign of life and activity. The man who never does anything worth while is Immune from the danger of perpetrating minor errors, but, what is a great deal worse, his entire career is one great big mistake. Men who accomplish great deeds have small heed for the little errors. It Is only the man of circumscribed vision, of limited capacity, of narrow views, who ponders long and deeply over each minor, step in his affairs. Successful men are those who aro willing to make ono mistake that they may accomplish nine things "worth while" who are willing to lose one Uhttle that they may achieve nine victories. And right here is a moral for advertisers. Take any advertisement in any newspaper any day and present it for criticism to any ten or twenty people. Nearly every one will point out Its deficiencies or show where, in their belief, it can be improved. Yet the advertisement produces results it tel)s its story. Its main good overcomes its email defects. The advertiser who plans his campaign and copy intelligently, puts vigor and force Into what ho does, and keeps "everlastingly at it," is the usual winner In the race for success. If he should stumble in his judgment, or trip over an occasional obstacle, he does not let that alter his course, but keeps right on toward the goal with undiminished vigor and speed. Now you, Mr. Merchant or Manufacturer, take this home to yourself. Don't be afraid to make a mistake In advertising. Realize that the biggest mistake you can make is not to advertise at all.
