THE SALE OF A. [Original.] "Oh, Mr. Feiary," said Miss Garland when I called, "I nin so glad you've come. Do you know, there's to hen ruffle for the benefit of the orphan asy lum, and the ladles of the committee have assigned me fifty chances. If the articles to be raffled were for wom en I could get rid of them, I'm sure, hut since they are a man's chronom eter watch and chain I don't know what to do. I can't go among men asking them to take chances." "I'll be happy to take one of them." "That's very kind of you. Now, couldn't you think of some plan for placing the whole lot at one time?" i "That would tie a pretty big contract. Most men have watcl\s with which they are satisfied." "Don't you think that some man could be found to do It? Or two, or three—any number?" "I don't know any person or persona whom I would ask." "Can't you think up some privilege to j;o with the chances -something that would be an honor rather than of in trinsic value?" I remembered Lady Godiva. Of course that wouldn't do In modern times, but It set me thinking. Fi nally 1 hit on something. The only trouble about it was that Miss Gar land not fall in with the plan. "The onh honor I can think of would . >• a kiss," 1 said. "Why. Mr. Feiary!" exclaimed Miss Garland, under her breath. "You sure ly wouldn't suggest my giving any one who would take a chance a kiss." "«'«rt iiu . not lint suppose the a hole lift \ chances could be sold for 3ne UN-;." Miss Garland looked nt the floor, then at the celling, then out of the win dow. "Von see, there is a great difference between kisdng fifty men and kissing one man,"l added. "Yes. but it is as bad to kiss a man "*tice us to kiss him fifty times." "If it Is wrung to kiss him at all." There was a long pause, during which Miss Garland picked up a piece of paper and tore It into little bits. She didn't seem to get on with her problem. 1 must help her. "I think 1 know a man who would : take your chances in the raffle with the i honor attached." She made no reply to this, and I pro ceeded : He Is not a stranger to you. lie has known and admired you for a long while. It wouldn't be like selling a kiss. It would give him great happiness, re lease you from the responsibility of peddling the chances and benefit the orphans." "I don't think," she replied, after much consideration, "that it would be right, even under the circumstances, for me t<> kiss a man to whom I am not engaged." "Who knows but that an engagement might follow." "Engagements usually precede such things." "But this is a peculiar case. It wouldn't do for you to engage your self to a man simply that you might Bell him a kiss to benefit an orphan asylum." "It could be broken afterward." "That would be a mere subterfuge. If there is a sin In the transaction it would not be wiped away by such an arrangement as that." "Can't you suggest something that would make the sale Justifiable?" "Oh, the charity renders it Justifia ble." "Do you really think so?" "Certainly 1 do. or I wouldn't sug gest It." There was more thought, but the question was being rapidly narrowed down. "You haven't told me who the mail Is," she said. "I have told you that he Is an ad odrer of yours." "It seems to me that a kiss given a man who has no interest in me or I in him would be merely a touching of the lips without any feeling, whereas a kiss from a man who admired mo would be very different." "I should think you would prefer the lutter." This remark also elicited no reply. Miss Oarland was still thinking, think ing hard. She was very anxious to dis|M>se of her chances In one lot, but the manner of doing so seemed to her very Irregular. "What do you suppose," she said at last, "the people present would think of me?" "There need be no people present." "Oh, 1 supposed the thing was to bo done at the fair." "No; it could be done in private In deed I'm quite sure the man buying the kiss would not expose you or him self to such publicity." "But in public It wouldn't be as much harm." "I see no harm in It either way." "Are you sure this friend of yours would do us you say?" "I am positive." "1 don't see how you can know that •ince you have not had an opportunity ,to speak to him about it." "Do you siipjHise, Marion," I said, dropping Into a tone of tenderness, "that I would let any man except my self buy a kiss from you?" She bent her eyes to the floor, where they remained a long while. '1 hen she Bald very faintly: "I accept the terms. Take it." "Not till it Is given me by my prom toed wife." There Is one thing for which Mrs. Felary gives rue great credit, though I believe it is the only thing She.says I proposed delightfully. HARBISON HOLMES. S*f In \ tv foil i»d land.

He was thirty-two, she twenty-eight. At such an age "spooning" is supposed to be either over or on th- 1 wane, I• ut in this case the man at least seemed to be us ready as a boy of twenty. Besides, the mo ment lie laid eyes on the girl he was drawn to her by some unexplainablo attraction. Was It that he had met his affinity that she. too, showed some thing like recognition of a mate? He was fond of the mythical and a strong believer in pro-existence. Might they not have met in some other form, somo other world? There were walks through valleys ! and over the sides of precipitous moun tains. There were rides on roads hard and white, with occasional views of the broad valley of a noble river 4.000 or 5,000 feet below. There were picnics at cascades, boat rides on mountain lakes. In these amusements the two sooner or later drifted together, and when a few weeks had passed the man acted us If all time not passed in her company w.. - i nun ii time lost. Then he awoke to a sudden realization of the fact that in a few days it would be the 81st of August, when the season would be over and the guests scattered. It was the evening before their sepa ration. They were sitting on the piazza of the hotel. A moon slightly past the full rose in the east and lighted up a stretch of valley land far below, visible through a gap in the mountains. Moonlight is becoming to a woman's features, and a natural strength In hers was softened into a delicious feminine repose. He was fond of the mythical poetry of the Germans, and, listening as he did to tho tumbling of water in a mountain stream near by, he almost fancied his compan ion a Lorelei or a water fay. He was full of poetic fervor, and his expression took form in poetic words. ' I>o you know,"he said, "that look ing down on that panorama of mingled mist and confusion of dimly lighted un dulation there Is in me a vague sense of some far distant land In which I have lived?" "I don't even remember," she said, "when I was a baby." This was a bit practical, but he did ! not notice it. j "We look out into the heavens," he went on,"and in nehulie see universes forming. We know that nothing is de stroyed. Matter forms, disintegrates, forms again and again disintegrates. This is what we call birth and death. The particles of which the forms are composed were never born, never die. They existed always and will always exist." "Are not we forms," she asked, "of more cons ilience than unfeeling mat ter?" "We are, and if there is one attribute within us that is Immortal it is love. Love is eternal. There are loves, I ad mit, that are fleeting, but they are not real loves." "Not the real thing, you mean?" He looked at her suspiciously. Was she not capable of following him, or was this a touch of sarcasm? She look ed so innocent that be passed the re mark. "Somehow," he went on, "when I first saw you it seemed that we two had met in a previous existence; not only hail met, but loved. 'lf 1 could be blessed with an eternal love,' I suid to myself, "I would choose it with her.' Since then the days have flitted hap pily by, and every day has strengthened this feeling. Now, when I look down on that moonlit plain, with its gilded river thread running through its cen ter, It brings to me with an iudeserltm ble vagueness, yet vividness, some where in which you and 1 have met and loved.

"Our me< ting," she continued, "was not in some vague land myriads of years ago and myriads of miles away; our love was not developed in a nebu lous cloud. It was at the seashore ten years ago.

A HEROIC I'ART (Original.] 1 loved Jessie Lewis, and my love was returned, l>ut I urn a plain, matter of fact sort of fellow, and when May nard Head, with a handsome person, fine manners and a smooth tongue, crossed her path Jessie was Infatuated with him and broke with me for him. Before they were engaged Bead con fessed that some time before he hud got into trouble with the business house where ho was employed and bad been discharged. He told a very pathetic story of the wrong that hod been done him, intimating that he had taken blame upon himself to shield a fellow clerk. Jessie sympathized with him in the matter and admired the spirit that led him to tell her of this before she engoged herself to him. For my [tart, I have never met any one who was ready to suffer for me, though 1 have found many who were inclined to let mo suffer for them. I didn't believe In the magnanimity of Mayuard Read, especially as there was nothing about him to back his story. But it must be remembered that be had taken my girl away from me. At any rate I wanted to prove him dishonest I didn't dare investigate the offense he had spoken of for fear Jessie would hear of it and be my enemy for life. I turned my attention to putting In Read's way so Inviting an opportunity to bo dishonest that if there were dls honesty in him he would avail himself of it. I didn't moke on amateur de tective of myself to blunder through what I didn't understand, but hired "the real thing." I Introduced ray friend, Leslie Mer rill, to Jessie, and he was so well liked tn the family that he soon became a frequent visitor at the house. Mrs. Lewis, Jessie's mother, owned a hand some pair of diamond earrings which she never wore. Merrill succeeded In persuading her to let him have them for considerably more than their value. When the price, which he took caro should be In marked bills, was ready for payment ho took them to tho Lewis house, carelessly left them on the mantel in a room where Head was waiting for his fiancee and went out of the room. Returning later, the bills were gone—and so was Head. The same afternoon Merrill reported the matter to me. assuring me that there was no doubt of our tracing the marked bills to Read. He would watch the thief, notice where he spent money and take up any bill he might give out, which undoubtedly would bear the private mark. Then he would have Read arrested. I went home to dinner, where I learned that my old college chum Bradwell Jones, whom I had not seen for several years, hud called and Insisted upon going to my room, but the man's description did not correspond with that of my chum. I was dressing for dinner when there came a knock on my door and a man stepped in with u search warrant. I was much surprised, but as I was not aware of having anything I should not have In my possession I told him to go ahead with his search. I was still more surprised, indeed thunderstruck, when from oue of my bureau drawers he took out SOSO in bills. "I'll take these," said the constable. "They're exactly the amount of money that was to have been paid for Mrs. Lewis' earrings." It didn't hike very long for me to discover thot my detective hod got me into a snarl. Head bad doubtless seen him put the bills on the mantel und suspected his object. Read must have feared my Influence with Jessie and seen In this incident an opportunity to break it up. He doubtless induced a pal to visit my room and place the bills In my drawer, then sent the con stable to make the search. Well, here was "a pretty kettle of flsh." I was arrested and taken to the police court. I sent for Merrill, who, when he saw the turn matters hud taken, notwithstanding the slur it in volved on his detective skill, couldn't help laughing. Whereupon 1 gave him a piece of my mind that made him angry. This was very foolish of me. My enemy could not have carried the matter further, for Merrill waa the owner of the bills ut the time they were stolen, and If I were prosecuted must lodge a complaint. Whether he was really angry or feared his mistake would Injure his business, he not only lodged a complaint, but identified the bills by his private mark. I was In dicted, but gave ball and was Bet at liberty to await my trial. The evening before that trial came off I received a note from Jessie Invit ing me to come to see her. I went, and there, with her, was Merrill. Jessie came up to me, took my hand affection ately and half crying, liulf laughing, said to me: "It's all been explained. I thank you for your noble effort In my behalf." "What noble effort?" "Mr. Merrill—l mean Mr. Blgly—will explain." "Our detective office," ho said, "was shadowing Maynurd Bead for a big offense when you engaged my services. Y'our engaging me gave mo a great advantage in Introducing me here, be sides enabling me to win Bead's con fidence by giving you away and en abling him to got the better of you. With these aids I have secured evi dence to prove that he has stolen SBO, 000 In bonds which I have recovered." The most singular part of the matter was that notwithstanding the ridicu lous light In which I stood, Jessie per sisted In regarding my conduct very noble. When I asked her why It was noble she said that I had saved her from marrying a villain. Since Bigly admits that he would not have suc i-ceded except for me, I have at last concluded that after all my part was quite heroic. At any rate it reston-d my girl to me. JOHN TURNER WYETH.

Although the eyes of children may deepen or alter In color with their growth, tho change of hue in the iris Is principally due to the development of disease. The most market! changes are produced by an inflammatory dis ease known as acute Iritis. The iris of the eyes of the sufferer from this disease entirely changes color, prin cipally owing to the loss of distinctm ss In its fillers, with a consequent clouded appearance. The pupil is contracted, and small brownish white specks ap pear in It. produced by the breaking away of adhesions of' the iris to the capsule of the lens. The varieties of color in the eyes of different Individuals and of different kinds of animals mainly depend upon tho color of the pigment which is de posited in cells in the substance of the Iris, nml the eye can, therefore, only be said to change color when there Is n change In the color of the Iris. The color of the sclerotic coat, or white of the eye, Is frequently affected by dis ease or accidents, of which the well known bloodshot appearance Is most common. "OrlKlnat" and Actnnl Sin.
