HOW A WAR WAS
PREVENTED.
gg.I.M.I...M
Orlglnal.
The essential features of this story
constitute n notable newspaper seoop.
One evening at n ball at the Gorman
embassy at Paris M. de B.. n brilliant
young Journalist then representing the
London Times at the French capital,
was standing looking on at the dan
cers when n girl possessing a '1011101110
cast of countenance passed leaning on
the arm of the German ambassador.
Her eyes met those of De It., and.
though she lowered them modestly.
Btlll there was that in her expression
which revealed to the young journalist
that he had made an Impression. lie
sought the ambassador and begged an
introduction. It was granted, and De
B. was presented to Marie von Ullen
steln of Berlin, a niece of Prince Bis
marck. Do B. met the frauleln often In so
ciety, and at every meeting the mutu
al pleasure appeared to bo greater
than at the previous one. Within a
few weeks he was encouraged to make
her a proposition of marriage. She ac
knowledged that she was greatly pleas
ed with him, but that no definite an
swer could be given without consulta
tion with her family, and especially her
uncle, the chancellor.
"You think," she added, "that I am
seizing upon a pretest, to put you off.
To convince you to the contrary, I will
confldo to you whnr this engrossing
subject is. Our government, fearful
that France, displaying such remark
able recuperative powers, will soon
grow strong enough to take revenge for
the blow received In the late war. is
about to pick a quarrel with the French,
march on Paris and level it."
The imparting of such a remarkable
piece of news to him, .a Journalist, by
a niece of the real ruler of Germany
threw De It. Into a fearful state of
doubt. What could it mean? lie soon
left the frauleln, going to another
apartment to think. Two Germans
near him were talking together, and
ho heard one of them mention the
name of Marie von Ullensteln. where-
upon the other added, "It is wild that
" the chancellor Intrusts her with many
delicate bits of diplomacy."
The words did not reassure the lis-'
tcner. He left the omhnrsv. went to
his apartments and lay ir.vn!:e fill night
thinking of hH Htrnnw iid-enture.
What should he do? Whi'Mier the new
the frauleln had given him w.-m true or
false. It was his di'ty if. ;t Ficii-hman
to Inipnrt it to the president of I'r.ince
But this compelled the hp'rr.ynl of n
confidence reposed In him by the glri
he loved. After a ten lisle mental rl nig
gle he sent the infominlI"ii to hi:; pa
per. Its publication attracted cn'rUi-;--able
attention for the lime Iielm:. then
- . was dropped by the public an 11 ploceof
, manufactured news.
Do It. kept away from M-irle von l.'l
lenstein. The day after the publico
tlon of the news she had given him he
heard that she had left Paris. One of
two things was probable. Hither she
had been recalled by her uncle to be
punlsl'"d for revealing state secrets or
she had manufactured the news to test
him. As time passed and he heard
nothing of Gorman preparation to In
vade France he made up his mind that
the latter hypothesis was correct. In
either case Ills mental sufferings were
almost unendurable, loving desperate
ly, as he did. the girl whose cnnlldence
he had violated.
. . Then came an offer from a Paris pa
per for him to act as Its nerlln corre
spondent A burning desire to see
Mario von Illlenstelu once more, even
though she spurned him, decided him,
und ho went to Berlin. It was not long
before he met her In company. To his
surprise she nodded to him and smiled.
Her action convinced him that she had
manufactured the news s-'he had given
him and, finding him unworthy, had
become indifferent to him. Eager to
learn the truth, he took the first oppor
tunity to join her.
"Well," he said, "you saw that I re
garded my duty Instead of my love."
"Don't lot us talk of that," she re
plied. "Your act did no harm."
"No," he said gloomily. "There Is
no harm In manufactured news."
"Tho news was not manufactured.
You did your duty. Why have yon
not written mo?"
"I? Write you after having reveal
ed your secret?"
"I expected you to reveal it. Indeed,
I wished you to do so."
"Why?"
"If I had Intended the secret to bo
kept, I would not havo Imparted it to
you. Your duty to your country com
pelled you to reveal It."
"You used 1110 as a tool, then."
"Yes."
"And your consent to consider ,me n
eultor was a part of your scheme."
"It had nothing to do with my
scheme."
A Hood of Joyous relief welled up
iu De It. "You have given mo ono
confidence." he said. "If you are not
displeased with me, give me another.
Kxplaln."
"I have at times," she replied, "been
intrusted by my uncle with delicate
diplomatic maneuvers, lie had been
long worried by the war party who
were determined to destroy France,
thus antagonizing the civilized world.
Finally they carried the day, and war
was decided on. My uncle commis
sioned me to go to Franco and let out
tho secret, especially for England, ex
pecting that power would Interfere. I
chase you as my medium. As soon as
tho news was published In England
word was communicated by the Brit
lsh minister here that If we attacked
France we must also attack England.
That settled (he matter."
Later the betrothal of M. de It. and
Murlo von Ullensteln was announced.

Two Magnificent Varieties That Bloom
In Profusion.
Two mngnUicent new varieties of
sweet peas are described In Gardening
as having the vcavy and fluted stand
ards of tho Countess Spencer type, and
the wavy wings arc so infolded over
the keel that this Is almost hidden.
Trials have proved that they come nb-

solutely true from the selected seed
the one being pure white, the other a
pronounced primrose or creamy yellow
holding its own us to color with nnj
of the so called yellow varieties anu
surpassing them all In size of (lower,
length of stem nnd vigor.
The vigorous growth Is, In fact, a
characteristic of these line varieties,
tho vines being stout with heavy foli
age, often growing twelve feet high
and covered with dowers that retain
their great size continuously through
out the season.
Small Fruits.
Open winter days afford the oppor
tunity for trimming the small fruits.
Among raspberries remove the dead
wood and cut the laterals back to 0
length of twelve Inches. This is sup
posing that they have been cut In July
to Induce branching. But if not the
top third should be cut olT, says Iowa
Homestead.
The same method should bo followed
In handling the blackberry rows. Those
who are growing tender varieties have
already trimmed and laid down for
winter. But a great number of out
readers are growing tho hardy Snyder,
which does very well without protec
tion. A very common cause of failure with
currants Is to let the bushes get too
thick, and the result is very small
Jrult. In such cases half or two-thirds
of the old wood should be cut away.
Always select the oldest stalks to re
move. The bushes should bo left open and
only the most thrifty of the new shoots
spared to take the place a year or two
later of tho prer.cn t bearing wood.
Follow the same plan with tho goose
berry. Just a hint to the amateur
grape grower: It Is better to trim the
vines now than Inter in the season.
Two main stems from one roct Is
enough to leave to b trained up fan

HAPPY MONTHS.
An Odd Custom Observed In England
at Christmas Time.
"Happy mouths" is the name npplled
to tho little mince pies made ut Christ
mas time throughout England and
served to any guests who may call nt
the house during the holidays.
The saying Is that for every one of
these tiny pies one eats a happy month
will come during the year, only the
pies must be given to the one who
eats them.
When one calls at the house the little
pies are brought forth with a glass ot
wine or a cup of tea. and. howevei
well sutlslicd one may already lie as
regards one's appetite or how many ot
these "happy mouth" pics lie has nl
ready eaten. It is considered a marked
breach of etiquette to refuse the little
pie, although one Is allowed to take It
homo and eat It later. This, however,
Is not very often done, for who would
refuse tho coming of n happy month
by refusing to overtnx the stomach for
just one more little pie?
In some parts of England these little
pies aro literally made by tho dozeu,
so there will be plenty of them foe
family and friends. They aro mnde of
tho richest of puff paste, too, which, at
tho best of times, Is an Indigestible
goody, and tho crust is filled with a
mluco meat lining that is oven richer
than the crust. Suburban Life.
CEYLON ELEPHANTS.
The Only Species In Which the Males
Have No Tusks.
What a sight for a Ceylon elephant
hunter would be tho first view of a
herd of African elephants all tuskers!
It Is a singular thing that Ceylon, Is
tho only part of tho world wh'cro iho
male elephants have no tusks. They
have miserable little grubbers project
ing two or three Inches froii tho upper
jaw and Inclining downward.
Nothing produces either ivory or
horn in tine specimens throughout Cey
lon. Although some of tho buffaloes
have tolerably tine heads, thoy will
not bear a comparison with thoso of
other countries. The horns of the na
tive cattle aro not above four Inches
iu length.
The elk and tho spotted deer's ant
lers aro small compared with deer of
their size In India. This is the more
singular as it is evident from tho geo
logical formation that at some remote
ported Ceylon was not an Island, but
formed a portion of the mainland. It
Is thought that there must be elements
wauling in the Ceylon pasturage for
tho formation of ivory. Ceylon Man-
