D ra m a tic Reunion of C ount C ro ix and H ia Fiancee. do 8». The Count de St Croix, belong ing to one of the noblest and wealthiest families in France, be­ came engaged, after a long court­ ship, to a lady his equal in position and fortune and famous for hei beauty. Shortly after the happy day was appointed which was to render two loving hearts one the count was ordered immediately to the siege of Sebastopol, so he girded on his saber and at the head of his regi­ ment marched on to the battlefield. During the count’s absence it happened that his beautiful affianc­ ed was stricken down with small­ pox. For weeks she hovered be­ tween life and death, but recovered only to find her beauty hopelessly lost. The disease had assumed, in her case, the most virulent charac­ ter and left her not only disfigured, but seared and scarred to sffeb a frightful extent that she became hideous to herself, so she resolved to pass the remainder of her days in the strictest seclusion. A year passed away, when one day the count, immediately on his return to France, accompanied by his valet, presented himself at the residence of his betrothed and so­ licited an interview. This was re­ fused. He, however, with the per sistence of a lover, pressed his suit, and finally the lady made her ap­ pearance, very closely muffled in a veil. At the sound of her voice the count rushed forward to embrace her; but, stepping aside, she trem­ blingly told him the story of her sorrow and burst into tears. A heavenly smile broke over the count’s handsome features as, rais­ ing his hand above, he exclaimed: “ It is God’s work! I am blind!” It was even so. When gallantly leading his regiment to the attack a cannon ball passed so closely to his eyes that, while it left their ex pression unchanged and his coun­ tenance unmarked, it robbed him forever of his sight. It is unnecessary to add that their marriage was shortly after solemnised, and, despite their afflic­ tions, they lived to enjoy great happiness. « 1*0 iron«. Nothing exists within the entire range of the most powerful tele- spectroscope that humans can make but electrons. Every phase of mat­ ter on earth, end the same kinds or elements are to be seen on every clear night glowing in many mil­ lions of distinct suns, can be resolv­ ed into primordial basic electrons. Hence T have repeatedly asserted that nothing exists but electrons. Electrons at rest are not matter— they are pure electricity. No atom of any chemical element can appear in space until electrons revolve around each other. Speci’ c speeds, distances of orbits, numbers of elec­ trons revolving and direeron*. of their revolutions determine what elementary atom ihaU be formed. This is the set, rigid and basic fact of modern science— Edgar Lucien Larkin in New York American. j "" Good W is h e s Fro m Homo. When Mr. Brown was away from home on an extended business trip, he got a long letter from his wife. It ended thus: “ Baby is well and lots brighter than she used to be.

Some cocksure classifiers of hu­ manity have turned their atteation lately to the shape of people’s noses. It is the nose, we are told now, that makes, or at least reveals, the man. A Roman nose means aggressive­ ness, courage, executive ability. It belongs to great warriors ami cap­ tains of industry. The Grecian nose indicates refinement, often ac­ companied by timidity. The snub nose demotes a childlike, undevelop­ ed type of mind, and so on, as long as white paper and printer’s ink can endure the strain of chroni­ cling such imbecilities. Perhaps there is an element of truth in these conjectures, but it is terribly small. Alexander the Great was a warrior of some repute, whom no one has accused of timidity and few have charged with refinement. His nose, like his blood, was pure Greek. Socrates had a snub nose of pronounced type, but his heroic life of seventy years shows no childish quality unless it be bluntness of speech. The nose and the ambitions of Louis XIV. were Roman, but he was physically a coward, and his executive ability consisted in ce­ menting a despotism that had to be wrecked before his country could resume its progress. These be individuals. Masses show the same disregard for ready made rules. Considering their num­ bers, the Scandinavians of the mid­ dle ages were the greatest conquer­ ors the world has known, and Ro­ man noses are as scarce in Scandi­ navia as black hair. The Japanese are predominantly snub nosed, but he who takes them for children has queer notions of a nursery. The Spartans were Greeks and presum­ ably Greek nosed, but their name is a synonym for dauntless courage, and their refinement was a minus quantity. There ia a deal of human nature in any man, no matter what the He has opened a law office on shape of his nose, and the most un­ the ground floor of * lie building Notice of Estimated Cost for Street alterable thing about human nature improvement is its variability.
