"Have them mime aft." All movtsl aft, and I can remember through all the lonr years just how- she looktsl ami etery wonl shesaid. She had a worrltsl, anxious look, and no wonder. ami there was a tremblliiK In her voice as she suld: ".Men, you know that your eaptnln Is sick. Vomler comes a pirate If thereover was one.

"Why, most actors live a llfe-tlnie In a single season. The svvelleat ban uel I eier attended and the hanlesl got meal I secured Ixilh came lu the same season. The hnuiiict came early in l),-Uiber, when the star celebrated the auniiersnry of his debut as a star. The latter came the following spring when we were traveling on our trunks from Washington, II, ('., to Louisville, Ky. It was an all-day ride, and we knew that we couldn't eat till we eon Id show again. Jamestown was the dinner slit, llim, ami the manager ami I got to talk lug over tho prospisita for chuck. I coiiflued 10 him that 1 had ten cents In , stage stamps; he said that ho hud a nickel; so wo agreed to shako the rest of the company ami feast logolhur. The manager hid himself lu the luggage loom at the station and I went up-towii to n bakery, where I pttrchas a plo w tth our combined wealth, and returned to my friend. Tho sw lU'hmau's dliiuer pall hung templing near by and we oH-ued it; but wo hadn't the heart to lake more than n couple of pickles froii (he poor fellow, It was a dainty meal - pickles, pie ami cako (atoiiut-c bacho), Tho Joke of tho wholn thing was that the star, a smooth man, had meanwhile arrungisl to feed tho whole company and give his nolo for the bill.

Tho oblef com lu circulation along the coast of China Is the M. xicau dollar and tho ooppor cash. It takes from I, Vox) to I,. Mm cash to mako a dollar, and aomo of the coins In Dsn aro so MMir that you can bn.ak them tu two Is'twcen your thumb and finger. Theynioof the alto of an old rod cent, ami have a square hole In the center, lu older that they may be strung on a airing. They are made In dlllerent (tarts of ( hlna, and the tceroy of Canton Is now bull ling a mint with modiYii American machinery, which will turn them out by the ml. Hon. In the Interior of China those cash and silver and gold tu the lump form the money, 'I ho slaiuliinl of weight for both Is the tael, which weighs about an ounce, and tho money Is east In the shape of a lady's shoo. Ten taels of silver make a lump of sImhiI the slue of a Chlucio lady's foot, and If you want to pay out less than this amount you take your knife or n chisel ami ioumI olf as much as you want. It Is the rudest way of doing business, but tho Chinese, are very suspicious of coins, and they like the pure metal, (iold brick alsmt an Inch long amt half nn Inch wide and of the same thickness aro also used, hut you have to watch these, as you do every thing else In the shape of money In China. In South China you will 11 ml a chop dol lar, out of which Utile chips of silver have lieon taken, or In which holes hare Is'en Isirod and these boles filled with load. You will find coins under weight and chunks of met.il which are conn terfi It, and the rcult Is that every Chinese business-house has to keep one man whose buslues is to detect counter feit coin. This man Is 1 ailed theschrolT, and all the money of the establishment Misses through his hands. Ho gives a big Umd. and he is rcsmslhle for all the money he takes lu. If he makes a mistake It Is his loss, not that of the llriu. You w ill llnd these Re lire Its con neetisl wllli our Legation ahroud, and they may be called the cashiers of the Hast. They are always Chinamen, and the foreign hanks lu Asia havo all their figuring and their money calculations made by Chinamen.

WOMAN'S FASCINATION. Hum of ltf lli'iiiona Dial Attract Ilia NtroliKrr Ski tu tin, (lender. The power of fascination Inherent In women may, moreover, lie divided Into two kinds. A II of us have huoii the old lady, generally w hllo-halrisl, with kind ly, pleasant features, on which lime has set no unfriendly mark, who still retains all her attracllieness. Nolo how the I toys ami girls adore her; they will go to tier and conllde their sorrow a, their hopon, thulr ambitions, even when they would nut breathe a word to their mothers. The kindly, loving Interest winced In a lad's attalrs by such a ono has tlmo and again llrst Implanted the Impulses In his heart which eventually led ti 1 111 on to an honorable career. IJiilcWly, almost ny slealtn, Hie good Is done by such, and the good seed sown which will rlH'ii tu after time Into a rich ami abundant crop. On thu other hand, we havo iiutst of us seen, jiorllapa III real life, certainly 011 the stage, tho fascinating adventuress tio. by her en thralling licauto do (liable, enslaves men's souls and lends them (on the stngei to dare all for her sake. Kuril It directly oppostsl to the sweet . old lady 111 her old-fashioned chair, and those two form the oiMisllu 'les bntwooii Which the womun who fascinate vary. Tysis ililler, and any one you may so lis't has some position between these two opKislloH. Take, for Instance, a pretty and may bo willy womun who, hardly of her own free will, makes every man fall In love with her to a greater or loss degree. She may lm In nocent of all evil intention, but her io- sttlon oil the scale is not vastly removed from that of the melo-ilraiuullc sorceress, Or, again, take the instance o( the pret- ty young matron who, w inlo devoted to home, husband and children, yet has several Intimate friends of the mule per suasion. Hut her Inllueiico is all for good. Her fascination Is exertisl In a worthy cause, and she has found out a great truth that thero Is no friendship o lasting, o true ami so pleasant at 01111 between M'rons of upslto sexes, wheru a truu fueling of Ixuiuo camara derie exists ninl there Is lit, pretense of lovo-maklug.
