BEHIND THE SCENES.
"You ee, vay boy," said Unole Ho
bart, "matrimony is dangerous thing.
Ton take a bouse for, say, year, and
if it doesn't suit at tba year'a end you
give it up and take another. Ton buy
a borse, and if it balks you send it off
to auction to be sold. But with wife
it is altogether different. Ton can nei
ther soli nor exchange her it'a a life
long bargain. "
"But. Uncle Hobart, " said the nephew
and boir apparent of that gentleman,
"lot's take another view of tbe matter.
Suppose tbat she is all that is lovely,
exoflluut and desirnble?"
Uncle llobart Rensbaw rubbed bis
nose.
As an inveterate bachelor of five and
fifty be was naturally inclined to take
tbe less sanguine view of the case.
"Paul, "said he, "it's of do use to
argue tbe matter. A youug man in love
is a young man mad for tbe time being.
If you've made up your mind to get
married, not all tbe arguments in crea
tion will avail asaiust it, Only be sure
you make a right choice. Remember
bow mucb depends upon it "
Paul Fontaine laugbed good bumored
ly. Like all young men, be thought so
much caution quite unnecessary.
"There are two sisters of these Lind
leys, you say?" saij Uncle Hobart re
flectively, polishing his glittering spec
tacle glasses.
"Two, sir Emily and Esther."
t . "Both of 'em pretty?"
"As twin blush roses, sir. '
" "There you go!" said Uncle Hobart
testily. "Right into sentiment, just like
a three volume novel."
"Well, sir, isn't it natural enough to
compare a pretty girl to a beautiful
flower? If I could think of any other
comparison"
"You needn't trouble yourself," In
terrupted Uncle Hobart "What I want
to find out is what they are like. "
"Esther is bright and sparkling;
Emily is all softness and refinement
Esther is a brunette, with the blackest
bair I ever saw. Emily has chestnut
curls and blue eyes, and a lovely, fair
complexion."
"Exactly." Uncle Hobart hummed
an old tune which had been popular in
bis youth:
Black eyes most dazzle at a ball ;
. . Blue eyes most please when shadows fall.
"And which do you like best, Paul,
h?"
"Tbey are both of them charming!"
energetically answered the young man.
"Upon my life, uncle, I sometimes wish
tbat the Turkish system prevailed here,
and that I could marry both of tbem. "
"Difficult to decide which is tbe most
fascinating?" questioned Uncle Hobart
"But tbe thing is, my lad, which will
wash and wear the best for everyday
life?"
"That is a question which the future
will decide, uncle. Unfortunately we
have no chemical teat to decide the mat
ter." "Think not?" said Uncle Hobart dry
ly. "Look bore, Paul, up to the present
time you bave only seen these girls
through the chiaroscuro of visiting dress
and company manners. What would
you give to behold them as tbey really
are to get a peep behind the scenes?"
"Half tbat 1 am possessed of, unole!"
cried out Fontaine, with animation, "if
only to be able to satisfactorily prove to
you, sir, bow pure and noble and high
souled tbey are. But all this is non
sense. Of courseit isan impossibility!"
"Nothing of tbe sort," said Uncle
Hobart " Vou say that up to tbe pres
ent tbese girls do not know me personal
ly or of my connection with tbe board
of health. Well, it is true that I am
neither a wizard nor a magician, but 1
am what is quite as useful in this mat
tera sanitary official. I go into peo
ple's back doors when 1 wish it 1 stride
remorselessly through their kitobens and
cellars when I want to see for myself
rather than trust my inspectors. I am
at liberty to take a down stairs view of
tbe world. Eb, young man, what do
you tbiuk of that?"
Paul Fontaine stared.
"I don't understand bow"
"But you will, doubtless, when I tell
you that the Lindleys' house is in my
district; that 1 bave decided to go there
tomorrow morning to see personally
tbat all tbe drainage is perfect If you
choose to volunteer a little help, I'll
diRgnise you as one of my men aud"
"With all my heart, uncle!" cried
tbe young man, with glittering eyes
and heightened color. "I fear no ordeal
to which you can subject Esther and
Emily. . Believe me, the metal will ring
true!"
"Well, we'll see, " said Mr. Rensbaw.
"In the meantime suppose you ring for
lea." .

Tbe Lindleys were people who kept
up a grand appearance upon a compara
tively disproportionate foundation.
Their sitting room was elegantly fur
nished ; their ball upholstered in Persian
patterned Brussels, with rosewood rack
and Gothic ball cbair, but the kitchen
waa a gloomy, subterranean apartment,
scantily furnished and uninviting In
aspect
Moreover, the Lindleys were strug

shoes, was the only servant they kept

Esther indignantly. "Does be espect

"Please, sir, the sink's in the cellar,
sir. Tbis way, sirl" said Betty, clamp
ing on ahead and turning open a cellar
door, whence rushed out a blast of
sepulchrally damp air.
But tbe one glanceinto tbe sitcnen
had been enough. Earner, in a greasy
Dink dress, and her bair. in a bristle of
curl papers, sat before a tray, with a
bowl in bcr lap, eating a 10 o clock
breakfast, while her pretty feet thrust
into a pair of badly worn slippers, dis-
rjlaved sundry unmended boles, and a
soiled pocket handkerchief tied around
her neck did duty in place of tbe neat
collar or frill generally supposed to be
necessary. .
Mrs. Lindley was bending over a huge
kettle of bubbling and boiling preserves
upon the range, and at the wasbtub
stood a slight, trim figure, with an
apron tied around ber waist and sleeves
above the elbow, Emily herself, scrub
bing away with tbe energy of a laun
dress, and ber shining bair wound in
lustrous braids around and about her
small bead.
Uncle Hobart following olosely at
tbe beels of bis nephew, waa just iu
time to bear Esther's petulant voice
from the other room sounding shrilly on
their ears.
"It's too bad, mammal The toast is

"No, it won't! I must have coffee,

brunette, tapping her pretty foot on the
floor and knitting her jetty brows.

you'll wait until I get these collars rub

"I'd be ashamed to turn washerwom

"I'm not ashamed of anything tbat is

A DEAL IN PEANUT BRITTL6.
The Trading Teuture of a Toothful Mem
ber or th Grntesa Family.
When tlioy put the price of peanut
brittle down to 19 cents a ponud in tho
big stores, Maude Oratebar, the oldest
of the Gratebnr children, bad su Idea.
Peanut brittlo costs SO cents a pound in
thu grocery stores and coufoctionory
stores up around where tho Gratebars
liva Maude's idea was to take some of
ber money sho is thrifty and always
has a little money and buy peanut brit
tle at one of tbe big stores at 19 omits
and job it out to tbe children at SO.
She thought that she could rely on the
trade of the Gratebar household, where
she was well known, and tbe sequel
showed that bur coufidunce wasuot mis
placed. Maude bought three pounds of pea
nut brittlo at 13 cents a pound, SO cents;
car fare added, 10 cents; total invest
ment 40 cents. Sold at SO cents a
pound this would manifestly bring in
60 cents, so tbat Maude expected to
make 14 cents on the deal. Trade opened
very briskly. Philip aud George and
Clara, tbe other Gratebar children,
transferred their entire trado iu peanut
brittle to tbe home stora Maude sold iu
any quantity asked for a single penny's
worth, if desired. This made it very
haudy for George and Clara, the two
younger ohildron, wbo could run into
their mother's room and ask for a penny
and theu scoot into Maude's room and
buy peanut brittle with it
Maude used a toy scale and weights
tbat bad been given to one of tbe chil
dren as a Christmas present Tbis was
bad, for tbe weights had never been
sealed, and despite her thrift Maude is
generous, and what between tbe un
sealed woights and ber own generosity,
whenever the children bought 1 cent's
worth she really gave them nearer 8
cents' worth, so that when tbe peanut
brittle was half gone, and she should
have bad 80 cents, sho really bad only
SI. But this loss might bave boon re
trieved and the deal still closed at a
profit if Maude bad uot begun to give
credit Maude knew well enough tbat
that wasn't business, but what could
she do when little Clnrncnme along aud
said mother'd gone out, and she wanted
a cent's worth of peanut brittle and
asked Maude to trust her for it till
mother came in. Could Maude refuse to
trust her own little sister for a oeut's
worth of peanut brittle? Why, certain-'
ly not Sho let ber bave it
At the end of a week George and
Clara hud run up a joint account of 10
cents. Then Maude shut down ou tbem
absolutely. No more peanut brittle, ex
cept for cash and the payment of all
back indebtedness. That threw tbem at
once back upon their mother. Called
upon for 10 cents all at once instead of
for pennies separately, Mrs. Gratebar
investigated. She found tbe two young
er children in debt to Maude, and
Maude herself uncomfortable over the
situation. Philip bad bought 10 cents'
worth of brittle, so tbat tbe total cash
receipts bad been 81 cents. But even
countiug what tbe little children owed
as good there wasn't brittle enough re
maining on band, even if sold for cash
and at full price, to make good tbe
original investment
Things were getting complicated, and
Mrs. Gratebar acted promptly. She paid
the children's debts, aud then at once
bought tbe entire remaining stock of
brittle and divided it among all tbe
children. Mrs. Gratebar paid 10 cents
for tbia remainder, so tbat after all
Maude closed but tbe deal at a small
profit, but it wasn't enough to pay for
the bother, and that would bave been
sufficient to deter her from all such ven
tures in the future, even if this bad not
been the express understanding with
which Mrs. Gratebar came to the res
cue. New York Son.

THE NEW CHILD.

"A is not an article," remarked a
shild the other day to her mother, who
was helping ber with ber school lesson.
"Fancy yonr not knowing that it' a

learned astronomy. "Astronomy! Of
course not I Tbat' an infant' subject,"
the answered, with great contempt

13. "Pope! Why, nobody tbink any
thing of him nowadays," she replied.
"Do yon know Milton's 'Paradise
Lost?' " "Oh, we got beyond tbat long
go."
Tbe worst of a childish dictum of this
tort is that you feel yourself so absolute
ly quenched. There is no getting any
further in the argument, for nopighead
edness equals the' pigbeadednesa of tbe
very young person in fact, of the new
child. And tben be or she is never
amused with the simple games that used
to delight us. Modern children are will

THE EGG DANCE.
A Beautiful Feat That Is Performed by
Hindoo Juggling Girls,
One of the most wonderful of the
many feat performed by Hindoo jug
gler i the egg danca Usually it ia ex
ecuted by a girl, fantastically dressed.
She makes use of the willow wheel,
around which at equal distance are
threads, and at tbe end of each thread
there is a noose, held open by a bead.
This wheel tbe girl places on ber
bead, wbile she carries a basket of eggs
on ber arm. When the music strike up,
she begin to dance, and tbe wheel be
gin to spin around. Sbe then takes an
egg from the basket, place it in one of
tbe thread nooses and throws it from
ber with sufficient force to draw tbe
knot tight Tbe spinning of the wheel
keeps tbe thread stretched, with the egg
at the end of it
Sbe tben takes another egg from the
basket, places it in another noose and
repeats this until there is an egg in ev
ery noose. Her fantastio costume, ber
perfect motion and all tbe eggs swing
ing on the stretched threads at once pre
sent a very pretty light indeed. It re
quire mucb art to execute the dance,
for at one false step the eggs would be
dashed together, the dance spoiled and
tbe dancer theroby disgraced.
After dancing for a time with all the
eggs swinging around ber head she takes
tbem out of tbe noose one by one, all
tbe time keeping tbe wheel balanced
and in motion, and again place tbem
in the basket on her arm.
When tbe dance i finished, the spec
tators are allowed to examine tbe egg
to see tbat tbey are reaL Philadelphia
