"It was tbe moat exciting legal bat tie of my life," he said, and every one present begged him to tell It "A flgbt waa going on for the pos session of a large fortune." continued be, while the others settled theroMlree for tbe story. "A wayward son waa contesting the will of bla father, and tbe case abounded In dramatic fea tures. Charge and counter charge were frequent The young man waa explo sive, bot tempered and without char arter. IIow much hla family bad suf fered through him no one ever knew. Tbe young rascal bad hoped to get hla fatbeVa vast fortune, and now be saw the case going against him and the money slipping through 1 his finger. Tbe last link In the chain of evidence was all that waa needed, and that would be supplied by the testimony of bla slater, lier name waa called, and aa ahe stood up-he was a beautiful creature there arose a buzs of admira tion snob aa sometimes comes from an audience. She flustered at that and b diluted, then started for the witness stand. I got up as she was punning me, Intending to reassure her, and ac cidentally stepped on her gown. Gowns bad a alight train In those days. My awkwardness saved her life." ' He paused for a moment to note tbe effect of bla words. "Tbe admiration of those In tbe courtroom was the final touch to that worthless brother. lie sprang up and, drawing a revolver from hla pocket exclaimed, 'Well, If I don't get the money you never will,' and fired at her aa she came toward him. My checking ber by treading on her gown made ber step backward, tz.1 the bullet missed her by an inch." Llpplncott's. '' THE QUEST OF BEAUTY. What Ob Wamaa Smffrrrd For tha lea ( Her Appearue. You muftt suffer to be beautiful, ac wrdlng to a French saying. 1 There twins to be some truth In tbe state ment if a lady's maid Is to be believed, 8he hns revealed the pecrets of her mistress' boudoir, or, rather, ? torture chamlwr. The lady herself is now beautiful, but one wonder, that ahe Is till alive. For months, ahe lay flat on ber back on the floor, motionless, with ber arms close to her sides, during sev eral hours every day. This was, it ap pears, to Improve her figure. During the rest of tbe day, for the same period f time, she sat on a high stool, giving and rocking the upper part of her body backward and forward and from aide to aide unceasingly. By this process she is said to have acquired a statu esque throat and a sylpb'a waist ,The lady's nose, having a soaring nature, was corrected and made Grecian by tbe -constant application day and night for months of a spring bandage. One nostril waa originally larger than tbe other, so ahe wore a small sponge In It for a year. Her cheeks have been filled out and rounded by Injections of paraffin. Her ears for montha were compressed against tbe sides of ber head by springs, while heavy weights were attached to the lobes to produce the required elongated shape, which has been successfully achieved. Hav ing suffered this complicated martyr dom for a year, the lady, aa already atated, la now beautiful. Farla Letter. M taa Parrot tha Scapegoat.

In spite of ail tbe romances, men and women are amazingly indiscriminate In tbelr attachment They select their wives and husbands far less carefully than they select their cashiers and cooks. G. Bernard Shaw. Rat a Society L4er, An Erie man who has no ambition to be a Chesterfield or a leader of Erie's Four Hundred was Invited out to dinner a few evenings ago.
