"Ob, there's plenty of time. The mat lnee Will not begin for an hour. I hank heaven, I'm on the last reeoid of un cle's lecture which he is !.; deliver to morrow." And the pre::;, nic.- • and stenographer of Profess, ;r Tl;e..;>!ir:<«- tus Melanchthou Potts, LL. i>., etc., oi Hlghplane college placed the cylinder In the phonograph and began taking down tbe words which the professor had spoken into It the night before. Ur-r-r-r-r! "In conclusion, gentlemen, I would call your attention to the fact that Mr. Herbert v.peiieer makes use of the neb ular hypothesis In the formation of our planet, which is to 'be finally dissipated into the attenuated matter out of which It arose.' and .Mr. Darwin declares that the noble (?) end to be attained by man, t! .■ object of evolution, is 'the rearing of the greatest number of individuals in full health and vigor and with ail their faculties pel feet uuder the condi tions to which they are subject.' What a 'l*me and impotent conclusion' to all the grand aspirations of Milton and Shakespeare, of painter or sculptor, of philosopher or scientist! That end were better attained by the repr< .tlve sav age, the swarming yel' man, the Moslem polygamist or ' sturdy Mor mon.

At first Jenny tried to keep up her stenographic report, but as matters be gan to get mixed she stayed her pencil and leaned back In her cha • a prey to varying feelings. Surprise, sorrow at the quarrel between her uncle and aunt and an urgent desire to burst into laughter at the absurdity of tbe situa tion struggled for the mastery. She could picture the gentle professor—mild in all matters except In the enthusias tic opposition with which lie confronted the materialistic tendencies of the ago —harried to death by his s'olding wife as she stood behind his chair uncon sciously registering herself in the in strument. Hubert had stopped his promenade and was now writhing in a rocking chair in incipient convulsions. "It's a shane to laugh," Jenny said. "Think of po old uncle going through oil of that, and that was only the be ginning. But it's time togo to the mat inee. I'll put the record away, for an idea has sti ip.

"•bert did it, receiving in return " 111 nd being called "an impudent • ••*•*• The lecture, amended and excised at the latter end, was delivered with great eclat. Professor Theophrastus Me lanchthon Potts, having insisted on hearing his record repeated and having directed Jenny to v..stroy It, which she (lid not do, was very silent and was ev idently weighing something carefully in his mind. Finally he said: "Jenny, do you am at ail to blame?" "Well, yes, uncle, in one way—you are too much absorbed in your studies and forget everything else." "I thought so; 1 thought so." he mut tered. It was the beginning of the summer • vaeation„and Mrs. Potts and the clill- J dren had already departed for Peach, where they were to spend the next nix weeks. A few days later Jenny and Hubert I were in the study conspiring. AH a re sult of their conclave Jenny sat down at the typewriter and hammered off kie following: Hlghplane College. . Mrs. Potts. Beach: Coma home next Thursday evening without telling any one. Slip Into the house at 9 p m.and hldo in the little anteroom to the professor's study. You | will hear something to your advantage. ' The professor will not be there alone. | (Signed; A FRIEND. "Well, you are a born casuist, Jenny, j 'Will not be there alone.' That's good. I He won't be there at all. He won't be houie from the faculty banquet before 10 p. ill." At !) p. in. sharp Thursday evening I Mrs. Potts turned the latchkey in th: hall door of her home. Stealing quietly In and creeping from the hall into the anteroom noiselessly, she nut her ear to the keyhole of the study coor. Her bosom heaved with a tumult of | emotion. She was torn with rage and ; jealousy. In the paroxysms of anger to I which she had been used to give way | and which had begun to become chron ■ lc the accusations of unfaithfulness | and her own jealousy were simply in j vented and feigned a.s a scourge for her j husband an<~ M a weapon of offense. Hut now she l'elt the pangs of that most frightful of all sufferings, and I the tooth of the serpent was deeply bi.rled in her bosom. A confused murmur was all that was at lirst audible, but as her breath and pulse, accelerated by the exertion of hurrying from the depot, calmed some what she heard these words in the voice of Potts: "My love"—ba-a-a—"still a moment" —ba-a-a. A woman's voice between sobs, "You've disgraced ine"— ba-a-a. Potts again, "I'll get a divorce or any thing you like if you'll only let me"— She could stand it no longer, but, bouncing into the room, screamed: "Oh, you faithless, heartless scoun drel! And as for you, you shameless *vo"— She stopped transfixed. There was no one there. . Hut "the phonograph played on." Br-r-r-r-r. , Two pairs of eyes peeping through the door of the conservatory marksd her stand for a moment stunned, then sink into a chair and listen open mouth ed to the phonograph as it completed its record, then arise slowly, adjust the machine again, wind and start it, then listen attentively to the strange med ley it produced, paling and reddening by turns and ending her performance In a storm of tears and sobs. After a time she calmed, rose, wiped her eyes, adjusted her hair and, taking up a newspaper, sat down to wait. The first thing that struck her eye was the announcement tn flaring headlines: Lecture by Professor Theophrastus Mt lanchthon Potts, LL D., on the False Conclusions of the Evolutionist. She read with interest the excerpts of the lecture and what, in the argot of the newspapers, "lie said in part," mean ing, of course, part of what he said, and for the first time In her life felt pride in her husband's learning and re morse for her want of appreciation of him. As she sat there reading the conclud ing lines the door opened and Professor Potts stood, astonished, on the thresh old. A moment, and then he stepped forward briskly, greeting her with a smile and a kiss. "Why, what a delightful surprise! But you must be hungry. Let me order you some supper." Mrs. Potts, wondering at the cor diality of the professor, replied: "Walt a moment, dear. Before we do j anything else I want to ask your par don for the past and promise"— "Oh, cut that short, dear! That's just what I was going to do myself, only you forestalled me." "I've been listening to the phono graph"— "So've I, and I see we've reached the same conclusion, so enough's said. Give j me a kiss." A smothered "Ha, ha!" from the cou servatory brought the professor with a "on, YOU F.iITHLKSS, HEAKTLESS SCOVN DKEL!" bound *) thrf door, and his voice halted the cuiprits before they could escape in to the gard.-n. looking rather shame faced, Jenny and Hubert came in. "I suppose we've got to thank you rascals for this. Let's burn the record and goto supper." "No, no," said Mrs. Potts. "I'll lock it up for ust in case we have a relapse." • ••*••• As a weduing present a few months later Jenny received a phonograph with the following prescription: 9 One Phonograph. M. et Big. To be Übed as directed (unless th« experience of others before mar riage should render It unnecessary). GETTING IN THE WALNUTS. An Intluntry That Clones California Country School*. The first English walnut orchard in California was planted with seed from the Los Angeles mission gardens, where the padres had started a few trees with nuts brought with them from Spain. The undertaking was a success from the first, and ihe acreage of walnuts has steadily increased. The walnut tree's early age of bearing, its long life and the steady demand for its product tend to make the enterprise deservedly popular. The walnut tree begins to bear when six or seven years old, and nothing is known definitely of its age limit of bearing. Fabulous stories are told of trees in Spain one or two centuries old bearing enormous crops. The oldest trees in California are still bearing, but deductions from the short history al ready made show that the tree is in ita prime from its twenty-fifth to its thir tieth year. Fifteen hundred pounds of nuts to the acre is a good average yield, i taking seventy-five pounds the average weight from one tree. The harvest time begins about the middle of September and las's nearly six weeks. The nuts begin to fall with the leaves, and the perfect cultivation under the trees leaves no chance for them to losj' themselves among clods or weeds. The brown dead leaves alone hide the nuts. Under normul con ditions they drop free from the outer husk, or hull, through its Irregular bursting, and getting the nuts picked up is a simple matter. Sometimes tho trees are well irrigated just before har v»rst time to Insure the clean dropping of the nuts. Boys and girls, men and women, Jap anese and Chinese, are all pressed into service, and on hands and knees the great orchards are gone over, not once, but several times, on account of the ir regular ripening of the nuts. The trees are occasionally shaken during the sea son to loosen the nuts, and before the last gleaning they are "poled" to start the very tardy ones. This is done by long, coarse bamboo poles, whose light weight makes them easily handled. In certain rural districts the public schools close regularly for a "walnut vacation." The help ol the children is needed, and the children are nothing loath to replenish their diminished purses. Pails, cans and gunnysacks are scattered among the pickers, and when the bags are full they are carried to the drying grounds, where they are spread out oil slat trays to dry.—He view of Heviews.

ALL THE STATES AT THE WORLD'S FAIR Many Beautiful Pavilions and Preten tious Buildings Show Forth the Enterprise of American Commonwealths. A beautiful city has grown up among j the trees on the World's Fair grounds lat St. Louis. It has nothing to do with • the immense exhibit palaces, but is a I tiling apart. Tlie houses in this new j city are of various styles of architec | ture. Some are palatial In size aud ap i pea ranee, while others look merely cozy and inviting. Never before have so many notable and historic buildings ' been constructed in one group. This | new city might be called the City of ! the States, for the houses included in it j are the state buildings at the Fair. The city is not compact, but some j what straggling, as befits the pictur esqueness of the view. Yet there is : nothing suggestive of a Stringtown j on-the-Plke about this city, for the grounds surrounding each of the houses ! are beautified with gardens typical of I the state represented. All the states are to be represented at the World's Fair. This means a great deal, a shining triumph for the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, and furnishes another illustration of the fact that this Exposition's complete ness is the marvel of the age. Fifty-one states, territories and pos sessions of the United States have taken the steps necessary to partici pate in the World's Fair on an impor tant scale. But two states were still outside the fold at the last report, and lu each of these was a well defined movement in favor of being represent ed at tlie Fair with buildings and ex hibits. New Hampshire, the old home state, and Delaware are the states re ferred to. In New Hampshire a fund for participation is being raised pri vately by patriotic citizens, so that in the event of legislative inaction this commonwealth may be represented. The states and territories are ex pending over 57.000.000 in their efforts to show off to best advantage at the Exposition. This is a million and a third more than was expended at the Chicago exposition by tlie states. In addition to this, large cities in many states will have municipal exhibits, the funds for which are not included in these figures. The municipal exhibit idea is entirely novel. From a number of the states there will be prominent j county exhibits provided by special ap j propriation of county funds. This City of the States presents a picture of surpassing beauty. Nature has done much to aid in the creation of the picture. Never before has any exposition been able to grant such ad vantageous sites for state buildings. The buildings are situated on a plateau about seventy-five feet higher than the level ground to the north upon which stand the main exhibit palaces. There are hills and ravines here and there, enabling the landscaplsts to lay out a most delightful pattern of roads and terraces and lawns. The smallest of the state buildings is that of Arizona, which stands near the southeastern entrance to the grounds. One of tbe largest is that of Missouri, from the dome of which It Is said that perhaps the very finest view of the Exposition may be enjoyed. Tills building is a palace in the Italian re naissance architecture, built at a cost of $105,000. Near by Is the reproduc tion of the Cabildo at New Orleans, In which the Louisiana Purchase transfer ceremonies took place Louisiana's state building. Ohio has a clubhouse of highly ornate design. In the architec ture of the French renaissance. Illi nois is prominent with a most pre tentious structure, with wide verandas and a commanding cupola. A description of each of the state buildings, with any detail, would more than fill a newspaper page. It is only possible here to hint at some of the interesting structures. California, for Instance, has reproduced in exact size the famous old La Itablda Mission. Connecticut presents a replica of the Sigourney residence at Hartfo»d, home of the poetess Lydla Iluntley Sigour ney in her time. This building is said to be the finest specimen of purely colonial architecture now standing. The New Kentucky Home, from the Blue Gmss State. Is a handsome club house that would make some of the mansions along Fifth avenue, New York city, look insignificant. Benu volr, tlio ut old house which Jef ferson Davis owned and occupied fur many years, is reproduced by Missis sippi. Its wide verandas or galleries give it a most inviting appearance. Washington's headquarters at Morris town, X. J., are reproduced by New Jersey. Virginia contributes Monti cello, the home of Thomas Jefferson. The state of Washington contributes a structure of unique design. It is called the Wigwam, live stories high, br'~! jf wood from Washington forests. The building is octagonal, with gigantic diagonal timbers rising from the ground and meeting in an apex ninety feet In the air, above which Is built an observatory, from which a splendid view of the Exposi tion may be had. An elevator will carry visitors to the observatory. New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Ar kansas, Colorado, West Virginia. In diana, Wisconsin, Texas and many other states are represented by build ings which cannot fail to arouse ad miration. The Texas building is In the shape of a five pointed star, an appropriate Idea for the big Lone Star State. lowa has a magnificent mansion, with classic porticoes and a antral tower containing an observa tory ehambei. Kansas, Indian Terri tory and Oklahoma each uphold the growing reputation of the southwest for enterprise and fertility of re sources. ltobbei'N MaLi- I'm- of 'i liln In New Caledonia there is said to be an herb which lias the rare property of revealing one's secrets. It Is known as the Datura stramonium and has white flowers and rough berries full of dark grains. They are treated of in the "Annals of Hygiene and Colonial Med lcinc." A person who has swallowed the tea made of this herb will after falling asleep tell where his money is hidden and will also arise and go di rect to where liis treasure Is concealed. Kobbers often use this tea as knockout drops with which to rob their victims. A Su h*t i t ii(«» Fop I.atln. In an English school recently a cer tain boy was regularly absent during the hour in which Latin was taught. The teacher called upon the boy's fa ther, at whose instructions it had been learned he remained away, and asked for an explanation. The father said: "It Is all right. During the Latin hour I am teaching Jimmy something that he will find far more useful than Latin In his progress through life." The teacher was interested and asked what this subject might be. The fa ther replied, "I am teaching my son how to shnVe without a looking glass. ' GLOVES IN EARLY DAYS. Tliey Witi- Often -Inlie to Itrpresent i fln» .Man Who Wore Tlicm. In tlie early days everything was not 1 regulated for tlie people, as it is now, by tiie government and the law courts. Europe was stiii young then, and peo ple had rough and ready means of deal- j ing with one another, of buying and j selling or giving goods and property j and settling disputes. A glove, as it was very close indeed to a man's hand, j came in course of time to be looked j upon as taking the place of the hand it- j self, and sometimes took the man's j place and was made to represent him. i For example, to open a fair it was j necessary then to have the consent and protection of the great lord in whose i country it was going to be held. Those ! who wished to open the fair would i Come to the nobleman and petition him ' to be present. He might be very busy, or bored at the idea of having togo, yet , he would know that it must be opened j or his people would be discontented, j So he would say to the leaders of the people: "No, my trusty fellows, I can't j open the fair in person, but I will send my glove to do it. You all know my glove. Nobody has one like it in the country. It is the one my lady mother ' embroidered for me in colored silks and ! silver wire, and it has a deep violet 1 fringe. You can hang It above the en- I trance of your fair grounds as a sign ! that you are acting with my permis- j sion. If any one disputes your right or j touches his master's I will attend 1 to him; that's all!" So the glove would travel instate to open the fair.—St. Nicholas. A. Homeless Community. Some people live In New York; others exist. It is certain that a majority of our citizens never owned a home. They live in rented flats or houses all their lives and do not know the meaning of possession. Many millionaires dwell | in hired residences. Their homes are in other states, but they must be In Fifth avenue during the social season, j and they must keep house. Philadel- i phia lias been spoken of as a "com- 1 munlty of homes." New York Is a com ; munlty of rents. More than half of our people don't know what it Is to pay I taxes. Their obligations of citizenship are settled by the landlord, who takes everything out in the rent. We are becoming a characterless mob.—Ntnr York Press. KTHI NEW!

This young lover was heir to a baronet cy, but baronets cannot approach royal ty in the guise of a suitor, though It took some time before the romantic youth could be brought to understand this fact. When at last he did so, he sat down in despair and wrote the now well known ballad, which was at that time published in a London paper, and then lie emigrated to Australia. Dentists IK- Much uoia.
