The sign on the village store read,
"Jones & Co., Dry Goods, Groceries,
Hardware, Etc.," but there was no
"Co." It was put on by Jones because
he thought It would look well and
•omehow Increase his Importance. Sa
lathiel Jones was Jones & »'o., and the
only Jones, and be was a mystery to
all who knew him. He was a success
ful merchant, and at the same time he
wa9 so abeentuilnded that he was
dtyly laughed at by scores of people.
His store was by all odds i«;e largest
establishment of Its kind for miles
around, and for many years he had
had four male clerks in his employ.
Then one day, to keep up with the
times, he gave a place to a young wom
an, and Miss Minnie Trent made her
debut behind the counter at which
most of the women customers made
their purchases.
In taking In Miss Minnie, Jones had
aided a worthy widow and a smart and
good looking daughter to eke out their
Income, and he deserved all credit for
It. True, he called her Minnie or Miss
Trent half the time, and there were
occasions when he looked at her and
wondered where he could possibly have
seen her before, but he was a good
employer and she a smart salesgirl,
and things went along without any
trouble.
One of the three male clerks in the
store was named James Thomas, and
It was generally understood in the vil
lage that he was "sweet" on Minnie.
Some said that It was through his In
fluence that she secured the place, but
that was not true. One of the other
clerks was a bachelor of forty-five.
Nobody could ever understand how he
turned to mercantile life. lie seemed
to be as slow wltted as he was slow
footed, and his personal appearance
was anything but prepossessing. It
Was doubtful if any other merchant
except Janes would have employed him
at any wages, hut Jones wanted honest
people about him, and he had the high
est confidence In Albert Ross.
Things had been running smoothly
at the store for months and months,
when there came such an Interruption
as had never been known before. A
woman lost a purse containing SSO.
There were not half a dozen people
In the store at the time, and she was
Kure she had it In her hand when she
bat down at the counter presided over
by Miss Trent. Search was made at
once and continued for half an hour.
Jones had left the store five minutes
before the alarm was raised to get an
early dinner and attend a funeral, and
he did not learn of the loss until sev
eral hours after. Then he proceeded to
a Judicial examination. He called in
the constable and the justice of the
peace, and the employees were exam
ined and cross examined. The loser
was firm in saying that no other per
son except Miss Minnie was at the
counter when she missed her purse,
and, although she made no charge,
there could be but one inference. She
herself was permitted to seach the pro
testing and Indignant girl, and a thor
ough search was made above and un
der the counters and all over the store,
but nothing was brought to light. Then
Jones did the right thing. He handed
the woman ?f>o, with his compliments
and regrets, and said nothing further
to the clerks. Nothing further would
have been said by any one had not the
woman talked.
Anything is a sensation in a village.
The fact that ?."><» had been lost In
Jonea & Co.'s was a big sensation, big
ger than a circus and a Fourth of July
In one. Teople at once divided off.
One half of them were sure that the
daughter of the widow had yielded to
the sudden temptation and concealed
the purse for her future benefit. The
other half charitably argued that some
one else had picked it up or even that
there had been no loss at all. Jones &
Co. tried to pass the affair over and
bush It up, but the people wouldn't
have It that way. It was a good thing
to hang onto until some woman eloped
or some man stole sheep, and it be
came a leading and a burning ques
tion. It resulted In quarrels between
neighbors, and those quarrels finally
resulted in Miss Trent being: called a
thief and bavin* t'» take legal cogni
sance of It by bringing a suit for slan
der. The defendant in that suit swore
out a warrant for the girl on a charge
of having appropriated the and
there was as pretty a kettle of fish as a
town ever saw.
Jones & Co. and the three clerks
were placed In an unfortunate posi
tion. While all of them fully believed
In the girl's Innocence, their testimony
on a suit would hardly favor her. If
the purse was lost at her counter, as
the loser was ready to swear, then It
must be admitted that only the two
were there at the time
Thlnzs certainly looked very bad for
Mlb> Trent, and the mental worry had
put her under the doctor's care, when a
strange thing happened. Albert Ross,
the old bachelor clerk, went before the
Justice of the peace and charged him
self with the offense and made a full
confession. In this confession he ad
mitted to passing the counter while
clerk and customer were busy looking
at goods and to have seen the purse
and slipped It into his pocket 11.- had
destroyed the purse, but lie was ready
to restore the ir.griey. He asked to be
arrested, tried and punished, and in the
course of a week he was arraigned :ind
bound over to a higher court for trial.
If there had been excitement before
there was a sensation now. While Miss
Trent's character was cleared, people
hesitated to believe that Albert Ross
was a thief. However, when a man
says he Is a thief, swears that he Is a
thief and demands that lie be sent to
prison as a thief, what are you going
to do about It? The key to unlock the
mystery was kicking around under
foot all the time, but nobody could see
It
The trial In the higher court came
along in about a month, anil Ross
pleaded guilty and was Bent to state
prison for a year, lie took the sen
tence meekly an. '-* u couple of days
had disappeared from sight of the peo
ple who had known him for fifteeu
long years and believed In his honesty
every day. Miss Trent returned to the
■tore, anil things went on in the old
way. except with Jones & Co. Jones
did not for one instant believe the girl
guilty. Neither did he believe that
Ross took the purse. lie went about
scratching his head and talking to him
self and trying to remember something,
and It was one day after one of his
"fits" had lasted him for half an hour
that he suddenly Jumped up and down
and used a swear word. Next instant
clapped on his hat and started on a
run r<>r home, lie being u widower,
with a housekeeper. In fifteen minutes
he was back at the store with the
purse In his hand.
It was as easy as breaking eggs.
Jones had passed the counter while the
two women were locking at some gar
ment. He had seen the purse and pick
ed it up to hand it along to its owner.
A clerk had called him at the moment,
and he had started off The purse had
gone Into his coat tail pocket, walked
home to dinner with him, and when he
changed his coat togo to the funeral
it was left in the old one. Upon his
return he had put on another, and so
for weeks the missing money had l>een
hanging in Ids wardrobe.
'"Why did you do it?" asked 2#lss
Trent of the homely and ill shaped old
bachelor as he returned from prison
with his character fully cleared.
"1 I thought I was guilty," he tame
ly replied.
"No! You thought I wan guilty!"
"Not that. Miss Trent. I—l knew
that James loved you and that you—
you loved him and that—that"—
"Then you thought him guilty and
sacrificed yourself for the both of us?"
"Well er well, you see, I'm getting
old and homely and I never expect »>
iiiirry and er well, it's all over
with."
And so It was, except that the girl
threw her arms around his neck and
kissed him, and her tears dampened
his wrinkled cheeks—the first tears and
the first kiss since he was a baby In
his mother's arms
THROWING THE DICE.
The Ancient (Irrniam Were Fusion*
(■ambler* at Thl* Game.
The invention of dice has been of old
ascribed to I'alamedes, the soil of
Nauplius, king of Euboea, about 1244
I?. and also to a Greek soldier nam
ed Alea, which is the Latin for a die,
but Herodotus assigns both dice and
chess to the Lydlnns.
The ancient Germans would gamble
away at dice all that they were worth
and then their liberty, submitting to
slavery If they lost, and the Saxons,
Danes and Normans were all addicted
to the game. Fox Talbot if of opin
ion that the Latins invented, if not
the game, at least the name for the
single point, which they called unus.
The Germanic races, adopting this
practice from the Greeks, translated
the Greek corruption of unus into ass,
which has now become ace. The root
of this word lies In the Latin as, tho
monetary unit.
John of Salisbury in the twelfth
century mentions ten different uses of
the dice. Stow mentions two enter
tainments given by the city of London
at which dice were in evidence.—Lon

THE BIRD'S SONG.
It Is Produced by a t'nlque Voice
Orican In the Syrinx.
Birds have no vocal chords fn the
larynx, but they possess a unique voice
organ in the syrinx, which is provided
with what are really vocal chords of a
very effective and complicated kind.
This syrinx lies in the lower part of
the windpipe and the upper part of the
branching bronchi, but varies much in
its exact position and details of struc
ture In different birds.
Briefly it consists of a varying num
ber of muscles, as many as from five
to seven being found in the best song
sters, attached to folds of membrane
and the bony half rings, which at this
part of the throat form a sort of en
larged Adam's apple.
Distinctness of the several muscles
and the mode of their insertion Indi
cate a bird's musical capability. The
syrinx of the skylark ami nightingale,
for instance, is a marvel of adjusted
muscle and membrane, while, on the
other hand, the ostrich and some vul
tures have no voice organ, the pigeon
has but little to show, and the common
fowl has no muscles to modulate Its
cry.
Old Roman Halrplna.
That deadly implement, the hatpin of
modern times, is a descendant of an
equally formidable toilet article used
by Roman women. The Aspaslas and
Julias and Claudias who decked them
selves a couple of thousand years or
more ago, to the undoing of the par
ticular Balbus or Marcus they desired
to fascinate, wore bone hairpins of
prodigious length. Vet. like the wo
men of this present time, they seem to
have experienced the same difficulty In
keeping them In place. This fact came
to light during excavations at Sllches
ler, ne-ir Heading, England, a hundred
or so of these bone hairpins being
found in tie Roman lath, collected
maybe by the bath attendant, to prove
all these centuries later that there is
nothing new under the sun and that in
all ages the same little foibles have
been possessed by women.
ZUNI FAMILY LIFE.
A Vlllaffr Loolm Like a Have Hlt« ot
Clay on a Sandy Knoll.
The little half civilized children of
Zunl so aroused our curiosity that we
drove through forty mlleu of sand and
sagebrush, from the railroad at Fort
Wingate, to pay them a visit. As the
Indians do not provide for travelers we
took our hotel with us—tents, l»eds and
food and camped Just outside their
village. The village looks like a huge
beehive made of clay and stuck fast
to the top of a sandy knoll. The hive
Is filled with n mass of cells —800 single
rooms, placed side by side and piled In
rows one on top of another.
In each of these rooms lives a Zunl
family. There an* no inside stairways
leading from story to story, but If the
boys and girls living In one row wish
to pay a visit to a house above them
they must go outdoors and climb a lad
der. On the slope between the village
and the Zunl river are a number of
small vegetable gardens, each one in-
Closed by a mud wall. Zunl has no
Inns, no shops, no saloons, not even
proper streets, but only narrow alleys
that thread their way through the
strange town. As we walked through
the village ail the world came out to
see us. Girls and boys clustered on
the roofs or sat on the ovens queer
little cones of mud which seem to grow
up out of the house tops while fa
thers, mothers and babies peered out
from dark doorways to stare at the
visitors. When we had finished our
tour of the roofs and alleys we were
hospitably invited Indoors. Even there
the clilldrr-n followed us, and as we
glanced up at a hole In the celling
which served as a window a girl's
J.t hing face filled the opening. We
must have looked strange enough in
our hats and gloves and long skirts.—

The love of independence and the
freedom and pleasure of today make
girls less anil less anxious to marry
before they are past five and twenty.
I'erhaps It is better that there should
be that disinclination, for our modern
life may fit a woman better to marry

MY CHANGEABLE LOVEK
[Original.]
1 have a lover.
My lover's name Is Jack. Jack Is nt
times feminine, at times masculine.
Strange to Kay, 1 like my lover best
when he Is feminine. 1 suppose, to be
strictly grammatical, 1 should say
"when she is feminine," but there i.s
no word in the English language which
stands fur "he or she." We use "he''
at times to stand for both. Therefore
whether he is acting like a man or a
woman 1 shall call him "he."
Sometimes Jack pays me compli
ments, sometimes tells me the truth—
If It is the truth—blurting it out sud
denly and gruffly. He often criticises
my dress, at times approving of my
costume, at times decrying it. I was
dressed for a ball the other evening
and, suddenly looking up, saw Jack re
garding me intently. As my gaze met
his an expression <>f admiration sud
denly lighted up ills face.
"You are very pretty, dear," he said.
"I'm glad you like my costume," I
replied. "Have you any suggestions?"
"It is perfect. You might take that
rose from over your right temple smd
I put It farther back. There; that will
do. It is a great improvement."
I walked away from him, turning
my head, while he kept his eye fixed on
the rose.
"Very pretty," he said. "And your
train follows you gracefully. You are
sure to have plenty of attention this
evening. Your card will be tilled be
fore you have been in the ballroom ten
minutes. Then, when the fellows come
up and ask for a dance, you will toss
your head, hold out your card and note
their disappointment. It will be de
lightful."
If Jack would always talk to me like
this I would like him better. But he
doesn't. Sometimes he looks at me in a
most unsatisfactory way anil says
what he looks.
"You're a dowdy looking thing," he
said to me the other day. "That dress
hangs on you In wrinkles and makes
y©o appear as old as your grandmoth
er*
"Well, I can't help it," I replied.
"Mine. IV has tried three times to tit
me and failed every time. She'll not
have another chance."
This is where Jack is feminine, when
he is prattling about dress. Hut some
times he talks to me about my good
and weak points. He is very change
able. I read him some verses lately that
I had Just written, and he was in ec
stacles over them. I read them to him
again in a week, and ho called them
rubbish.
Jack's only rival is Ernest Field. Ib
is very different from Jack, being hI
ways manly. He rarely notices my
dress or compliments me, but when he
does I prize It far more than Jack's
shifting opinions. I read him the
verses that Jack at first admired, then
called rubbish. He listened respectful
ly till I got through, then said, "Very
pretty," in a bored kind of a way.
"Shall we go for a walk?"
I could have scratched out his eyes.
After that Jack called me a fool to
waste my time dribbling over common
place sentimental rhymes. Occasional
ly he Is very sensible, but I have no
ticed that I get the benefit of his good
sense aftur Ernest has rapped me over
the knuckles. The next time I saw Er
nest I told him t Imll I was ( ashamed of
l my poetic effusion and would not of
feiul again.
"Your verses Tire much abetter than
the average," he.said, "but only a g«*n
lus can avoid being commonplace iu
verse."
Yesterday Ernest told me that he
would call tills evening and would
have something very especial to say to
me. It quite took my breath away, for
I knew very well what that something
would be. l£ow could I give up Jack?
When Ernest was announced I had
been ready ami waiting for him half
an hour. It wan-the longest half hour
I had ever known. Jack and I were
reading—l was {pretending to read -at
the time iu the v library. I looked up
from my book, and Jack looked up at
the Bame moment. He knew what I
was waiting for, and I saw him shiver.
There was a sharp ring nt tho bell, a
heavy step in the hall —it*seemed as if
an undertaker had come to measure
me—and the maid came dn to tell me
that Mr. Field wae in the drawing
room. I gave Jack a half assuring
look and went to meet my ftsbe, what
ever It might be, for I'was In a state
of Indecision.
I hoped Ernest wo*ild lead, up to
what he had to say gradually, but he
didn't. He begun, by saying thuba bet
ter understanding should exist bat ween
two people who had) been so ranch to
gether, and he had called to do Ws part
In bringing that understanding about
That part was to Jell me tliat hot loved
me and wished mo to be his wife.
Perhaps it was the way he did It.
At rate, I snid afters» short s!
lence that be avas too late; that I al
ready had a lover who w»s the only
one to whom V could entirely give my
self. I was very sorry If -he had con
strued a friendliness on my part to
mean love. I had not intantionally
misled him.
The expression tlist'came over his
face was <*n>> of teriflble disappoint
ment It was surprising to me after
his very metliodical proposition. It
broke down mjj resolution.
"1 only wish," he sail, "that I were
In his place. God gnuit that lie may
make yoiu happy, as you deserve."
"Ettiest," I said in a comforting tone
and (reaching for his hand, "my lover
has >a fault whicl* may after all kill
my affection for him. lie Is very
changeable. I>o w«i wish to see him?
Look!" I,'pointed to my reflection in a
mirror.
"Jaqwllne!" ' he exclaimed, radiant,
and t'xik me in* his arms.
