She camo to see mo tho other day, looking tired and miserable, and whilo sho rested in my biggest and coziest chair 1 pressed her to tell mo what was wrong. "Well," sho said finally, "1 will tell you. It all comes from being Mrs. Blank's latest fad. You aro surprised, but it's quite true. You know, Mrs. Blank, having nothing elso to occupy her mind, is always a slave to somo fad or other. Onco it was Browning, later on it was athletics and finally changed to china painting, and now 1 am hot particular fad. You see, sho mot mo when tho china painting crazo wits on her, and as 1 havo somo little skill and reputation as a china decorator sho camo to seo mo frequently about her work. At last sho veered around from china painting to me. When Mrs. Blank first "took me up" it was a matter of considerable rejoicing, not only to my fellow artists, but to myself. "Mrs. Blank is a woman of wealth and prominence, and naturally any person whom sho favored with her friendship and patronage would soon becomo well known and gain considerable custom. Well, I've had a few orders not many. You seo, Mrs. Blank's friends uro so well aware of her habit of going daft about something or other at recurrent inter vals that they don't put much faith in her recommendations. However, it's quite as well, for I shouldn't havo timo to do anything anyhow. I havon't had a chanco to execute tho orders I did re ceive. "Why not? Why simply because she monopolizes all my time. Do I get set tled down to a good day's wbrk in my studio, along comes Mrs. Blank and says: " 'Now you must corao up to So-and-so's with me. It's an opportunity you can't afford to noglect. You'll get lots of now ideas. Got something to do? Oh, nonsense I Come along aud do that afterward. Ideas aro tho tiling not la bor.' Or sho sends mo a noto to come to luncheon, as sho wants to seo mo par ticularly, nnd thon sho keeps mo thoro all day. What does she want? Nothing, except to talk to mo. That's why sho likes me. Sho likes to talk. Now you know I do not shino in conversation and I can listen till tho heavens fall. Well, sho sits by the hour and pours into my ears tho talo of her emotions, her ideas, her oxporipneos, her views, her nspira tions and her opinions of her neighbors, And I nm weak enough to lot her do it, all becauso people say, 'How lucky for you that Mrs. Blank is so interested in youl' "I used to be spoken of as Misa Smith-, a promising young china painter.' Now I'm alluded to as 'Miss Smith, Mrs, Blank's young protege' "Oh, I tell you there's nothing in this protogo business, bo assured of that. It's hard lines being somobody's fad. To be euro, as a rule it is something that don't last long, but it's wearing whilo it does last." Now York Recorder. Directions In Engliind. Spoainng of "up" and "down" in England reminds mo of a friend's ex porience. On Ids arrival in Liverpool lie wished to visit a hat store without delay. Ho was convoyod by a follow passonger to a largo establishment, whero hats were only ono of a dozen things that woro sold. "Whero is tho hat department?" In quired tho nowcomor. "Clear up to tho top, sir, ns far as you can go," was tho answer of thoclork ad dressed, whoso accompanying gesturo showed that ho did not mean tho highest story of tho building, but tho oxtremo cud of tho shop. The next day my friend was in Ches ter cathedral. It was Sunday and at tho hour of sorvico, nnd tho placo was pretty full. Looking about for a seat, ho was accosted by a vergor, who in formed him that "You can't got any seat, sir, unless you go clear down to tho bottom." What tho raau meant by tho "bottom" was tho portion of tho ediiico nearest tho altar. Londoners also spoak of tho ",top" and "bottom" of a street, whoro Now York ers say "head" and "foot." Cor.

Nerved t)Y Absinthe to tho I'ullil of 111' Joctlng the Futitl Drug. As to tho question of tho i.uicidal tendencies of alMinthodrinkinf;. thero is a Htnlring instance in ono of Edgar RnltuH novolH "Mr. Incotil's Misad venture." At leant tho musings and soliloquy during which suicide was determined upon was accompanied by a free indulgence ill tho danger ous boverngo. Lennox Leigh is tho young man who hikes his own lifo ns tho only seemly end to a char:'? of cheating at cards, of which ho is innocent, but which ho cannot re fute. Tho charge ta made by his vin dictivo enemy, Mr. Incoul. The viv id portrayal of tho condition of mid produced by tho absinthe is remark able. "On reaching his room," says the author, "ho put his purchases (morphino intended for suicide) on a table, poured out n glass of absinthe, lighted a cigarette and throw him self down on a lounge. For awhilo his thoughts roamed among the epi sodes of the day, but gradually thoy drifted into less personal currents. "He began to think of tho early legiens: of Charon, the god, renounc ing his immortality ; of tho Hyper borean, tho fabled people, famous for their fidelity, who voluntarily throw themselves into tho sea: of Juno bringing death to Biton and Cleobia as tho highest recompense of their piety: of Agnmedes and Tro phonius prayirig Apollo for what ever gift ho deemed most advanta geous, and in answer to tho prayer receiving eternal Bleep. Ho remem bered how Plato had prenehed to the happiest people in tho world the blessedness of ceaseless sleup; how tho Buddha, teaching that lifo was but a right to suffer, had found for tho recalcitrant no greater menace than that of an existence renewed through knlpas of timo. "Ho mixed himself another glass of absinthe, holding the caraffo high in the nh watching the thin stream of water coalesce with tho green drug and turn with it into an opalescent milk. Tho soliloquy was renewed 'After what has happened there is nothing loft. I might chaugo my name. I might go to Brazil or Aus tralia, but with what object? 1 could not get away from myself. And yet lifo is pleasant; ill spent as mine has been, many times havo 1 found it grateful. After all, it is not lifo that is short; it is youth. When that goes, as mino seems to havo gono, outside of solitude thero is lit tle charm in anything, and what is death but isolation tho most perfect and impenetrable that naturo has dovisod? And whether that isola tion camo to me tonight or decades hent'o, what muttors it?' "Ho poured out moro absinthe and put tho bottle down empty. Boforo drinking lie undid the package which ho hud bought from tho chemist. First ho took from it u box about three inches long. It was a tiny syr ingo and with it two littlo instru ments. Ono of these ho adjusted in tho projecting tubo nnd with his fin ger felt carefully tho point. Ho throw off his coat and rolled up his sloovo. From tho phial ho filled tho Byringo and with the point pricked tho baro arm and sent tho liquid spurting into tho flesh. Threo times ho did this. Ho reached for tho ab sintho and loft it untested. The lights turned palo and glowed less vividly, ns though veils wero being drawn botwoen him and them. But Btill tho languor continued, sweeter even, and moro envoloping, till from Bweotnesa it was almost pain. Tho room grow darker, tho colors waned, tho lighta bohiud tho falling veils sank thin, fading ono by ono; a ninglo spark lingered; it wavered a moment and vanished into night" Leigh had ended his lifo by his own act iu a condition to which largo quantities of absintho coutrib uted. fat Louis Ulobo-Domocrat.

"You will all grant mo," said the young man, "that even tho poorest 'bum' or most incorrigible gamin that runs tho streets can get a 'stake,' say twenty-five cents, with out much trouble.
