however, a very prominent ainaleiir,
whoso work has won lilm universal

tier's eyes.
"I bcK your pardon," bo said, "but
may I remind you that you haven't
stated your limine" with ma?"
The girl looked Into hla eyes with a
clear, frank gnze. Then she slightly
smiled and slowly removed an elastic
bund that held the sum!! package alio
lairu In ono neatly gloved hand. Jnaper
took tilck advantage of her averted
gnKo to pull down hla Pun's and make
n quick puns nt his twlated tie.
"I have written something," sho said,
"and I want to submit It to you."
Jasper felt himself wcnkcnlng. Ordi
narily ho would have taken tho manu
script, mid, hastily scribbling the writ
er's address on It, would have tossed It
naldu with the remark that hi) would
coniiniitilcatu with thu writer by mall
concerning It nnd then ho would have
rcBiimcd his work. Now he hesitated.
Ills pencil dropped from his lingers. He
straightened up n little.
"What la thu nature of thu article?"
he naked, tu what he fancied was an
Indifferent tone.
"It ln't mi article," aald the girl.
"Iu I look like a person who would
wrltu an article?"
Hho seemed to challenge his scrutiny.
Juaper couldn't resist the temptation.
Hit leaned n little farther back.
"It Isn't always poaslhlo to Jlldgo by

"Itut I fancied article, writers were
always old. and mid fussy, and and
cranky," said the girl.
"There are exceptions," said Jasper.
"There must bo exceptions."
"I aupiKisc ymi know," snld the girl.
"Itut It Isn't an article."
"You nrouso my worst fears," said
Jasper, us tho girl spread out tho manu
script. "I think I understand what you
mean," sho said.
"I'm glnd you do,"
"And I'm nfrald your worst fears nru
continued," she said.
Jasper sighed.
"Then It Is verses?" ho said.
"I supposed It was poetry," said tho
girl.
"They nlwnys do," said Jasper.
Tho Klrl looked up at him with a
pre.tty grimace.
"Yuii are not u bit encouraging," sho
said.
"It's tho better way," said Jasper.
"And yet you write verses yourself,"
said tbo girl. "And get them printed,
too."
"Perhaps It Is because I haven't a
friend honest enough to dissuade me,"
said Jasper. "I bavo had no tlmo for
that sort of noiisunsu lately, however."
"That's n pity," said the girl.
"Don't think to soften mo In Hint
way," said Jasper.
"I like those lines beginning. 'Shu
camu upon mo unawares,' " said the
girl. "I know them by heart. 'Sho
camu upon mu unawares, I turned and

"I beg your pardon," cried Jasper.
"It Is your Hues Hint nro under consid

Tho girl Kvo lilm a Bldelong glance. .
"Did alio come upon you unawares,
Mr. Dnue?"
Jasper caught the glance nnd slightly
Hushed. Ills look grow troubled again.
"I llvo In hopes," ho said.
"That's enigmatical," laughed tho
girl. "It shows you nro not sure."
"I must object to your manifest In

Tho girl laughed and passed tho man

"I know you will Ilka It," sho said.
"Why nro you bo certain," Jasper
asked.
"Ilocauso I haven't written on both

Jasper bent over tho manuscript to

Tho Binllo faded. Ho read tho lines with

While bruins mid work arc necessary

ground glass, the shutter ono of the

tig t the moat Important of all is tho

and cheap Imix nnd shutter than a Oho j
box mid shutter with n cheap lens. It
Is also advisable to own two lenses-a
wide angle for Interior and confined
places, and a rectilinear. The rectlll-,
near lens shoufd bo of high speed mid
not too long n focus, for all around
work. A high grado combination lens
Is very desirable, which by removing

lenses Is an Inexhaustible ones, mid wo l

They are of the old school where sen

"Hut It's not all bad, Is It?" queried
the girl.
"liy no menus," replied Jasjier. "Tho
execution la good. If the fripperies and
affectations were dropped It would bo
very passable. If you would heed my
advice they never do I might be
tempted to usk you to try again."
Ho folded the manuscript and hand

'Thank you," said the girl.
"1 a in sorry If my Judgment seems

"It doeau't," mill the girl.
"I have tried to treat you as an hon

'Thank you again," said the girl. "I
will admit that 1 hoped to see my verses
In your paper."
"Try again," said Jasper.
Tho girl arose uud put out her dainty

"I am glnd to know you, Mr. Dane,"
she said. "I have a very dear friend
who bus sung your praises until I am
quite Jealous. lwas really anxious to

added, with u charming smile, "I am

The smile and the words quite over

"1 I hope so," ho fairly Btamniereil,

As he resumed his sent a card upon
tho floor drew his attention. The girl
had dropped it. Ho picked It up, caught
sight of his name, and at ouco recog

be read It aloud:
"Dear Dam This Is my daughter

What sho writes goes, of course.

Dane softly whistled.
So this was I.amsou's llttlo girl, this

ho hurt her feelings? What n bruto ho
was! It would have been such a simple
thing to publish tho verses. And she
never showed him her father's note.

Ho picked up tils pencil nnd bent orcr

18 YOUR THUMB MAD?
It Is nil Infallible Itevculer of the
I'rcciice of lutuiulty.
The thumb Is the most tell-tale mem
ber of thu human being's body, and It
Is n well-known device of employers of
n largo amount of labor to carefully
scrutinize tho thumbs of every appli
cant for n situation before finally en
gaging lilm or her for nuy posltlou In
their business. In fact, so far has this
thumb science been carried that many
lunatic asylum doctors nro now em
ploying It lu detecting thu numerous
frauds who endeavor each year to en
ter thu nsylitm on the plea of Insanity.
No matter how carefully tho Individ
ual may attempt to conceal Incipient
Insanity, tho thumb will reveal It In
fallibly. It Is tho ono suro test. If the
patient In his dally work permits tho
thumb to stand at a right nuglo to tho
other lingers, or to fall listless Into
the palm, taking no part In his writing,
his handling of things, his multiform
duties, but standing Isolated nnd sulky,
It ls.au utmswernblo confession of men
tal disease.
Specialists In nervo disease, by an
examination of thu thumb, can tell If
tho patient Is nltected or likely to bo
affected by paralysis, as tho thumb sig
nals this long beforo It Is visible lu any
other part of tho body. If tho danger
symptoms aro evidenced there, an op
eratlon Is performed on whnt Is known
as tho "thumb center" of tho brain, and
tho disorder Is often removed.

Micky O'llrleii Telia What Ilotliers
Zon llnfTaln,
Itotueo, one of tlio big black buffaloes
nt the New York r-oologlcal park, has
been suspected of liisnnlly. Ilo has
been tho most nervous creature about
the park. No sooner would he Iln down
lna sunny corner of his field to snooze
than up ho would leap, snorting, mid
with shaking head charge aomu Invis
ible creature across the pasture.
A naturalist who vlalled thn park
watched tho great brute through his
spectacle for n tlmo and then gavo It
ns his opinion that the proeess of shed
ding the hair brought about a sort of
mild Insanity and Hint ill animals
were likely to suffer from It In tho
spring.
Micky O'llrlcn was mi Interested wit
ness of tho wild buffalo's pranks the
other afternoon. Micky is not a nat
uralist but bo Is natural. He Is only
l.'l years old and vowed that It was
as good us tho wild west ahow to sco
tho occasional spurts of Itoineo. says
tliu Now York World. Tho great prairie
lawn-mower had been quietly compos
ing himself for sleep In a shady corner
for some time. Suddenly he leaped
up and tore down the Hue toward tho
hoina base as If there were three men
on bases and It was two strikes.
Mickey watched the buffalo carefully.
As soon as the creature got composed
again whisk! ho was off down the
fluid.
"I have It!" yelled Micky, enthusias
tically. "I know what alls him. There's
a suiuiner yallcr bird up In them bushes
building a nest and he's trying to steal
hair off the buffalo's back. Watch him
now!"
And sure enough, as soon as the
weary buffalo got nicely settled down
for another snooze the llttlo summer
yellow bird, about as big as a canary,
came Muttering down and tried to pull
off n piece of tho looau fur about the
great bovlne's shoulders. The sharp
claws or the tickle of the little feet on
the almost bare skin aroused the buf
falo and nwny ho wetit. The yellow
bird Hew up to his nest with a little soft
hair for nest lining.
Itomeo Is not crazy. He simply ob
jects to being held up and robbed of his
clothes lu broad daylight.
Tho World Hf 111 Needs tlio Workers.
The u oriel still needs the workers, though
It may sometimes forget
That It owes the weary laborers an ever
lasting debt;
Without the busy tollers gold would cease
at once to buy
The things that please the palate or .ire
grateful to the eye;
The world still needa the people who must
labor day by day.
Hut the world keeiw on forgetting. In Its
easy-going wsy.
The lady In her satins, who la beautiful
to see,
I-'orgets that those who labor lend her
all her witchery;
i Without the busy tollers all the millions
I she commands
I Would not procure s piece of scented
! aosp to wash her hands;
. Without the busy people who must labor
all their days
All her money wouldn't even buy new
la ecu for her ataya.
Tlio tiiairnate who look proudly on his
inlllloa-dollsr yacht
Forgets to give the carpenter a single
kindly thought;
He ceases to remember as he sips hla
aplendld wine
That without the anea who labor there
would be no fruitful vine;
He forgets that all his money wouldn't
clean the crumka away
If there were no luckless people who
must labor day by day.
The onea whose names are famous, who
are high and great and proud.
Forget that pride would ille without the
busy, wenry crowd;
Without the' onea who labor none could
hope for greatncis here.
Without the busy toilers all we prize
would disappear.
Oh, the world still needa the people who
must tolt through all their days,
Hut the world la ao forgetful in its easy
going ways.

Simple or Accomplishment.
Prophecy Is ono of the simplest
trades in the world. It la said that
there nro only thirty-six original situa
tions, or Independent and distinct se
quences of occurrence, known to fact
or Motion. Whether or not this Is true.
It Is true that life is vastly more slm
plo than most people suppose. The
professional prophets, who thrive In
greater numbers nowadays than they
over throve before, have only to keep
the simple, elementary combinations of
circumstance In mind, nnd assign them
with a good regard to probability, to
gain a great reputation for scershlp.
It Is very easy to be a prophet If ono
Is never going to bo called to account
for all the things that never come true.
Weather Prophets.
Herrings can scent a storm and the
direction lu which It Is coming. They
are not able to see tho wind like a
pig, but like a pig they can smell nasty
weather. Heuco tho herrings always
during a storm choose tbo safest spot
In which to swim. They cither go out
to sen or come In very close to land,
On ono occasion tho residents round
a certain bay saw a shoal of herrings
bo closo to tho sboro that they waded
In nnd caught the tlsb with their
hands. Shortly afterward a most vio
lent storm raged over the sen and
coast, but the Inner portion of the bay
suffered tho least.
Tho Motion Prevailed
An old towu olUclal of the city ot

during tho night of the earthquake
disturbances of 1SS0 tho city council
was In session,
When tho miako shook tho cltv hall

men ran out, thinking the house would

concluded his record with thq follow
