For $2,000 has been »old in Faris a
piece of lace which was the cause of a
quarrel between Napoleou aud Jo

press were slapped. It had been the
property of Mlle. Perusset. daughter of
a favorite 'said of the flighty Empress
Napoleon had brought the lace from
Italy. He ofteu brought her beautiful
things on his return from a successful
campaign, and Josephine never asked
him bow he had got them, for she
thought that perhaps be would not can
to tell.
It was a large square of the flnest old
point de Venlse. and Josephine, as soon
as she had it iu her isjssession, sent for
M. Duplan, her maumilllner. aud asked
him to make with it a certaiu tichu aud
a pepluui.
"IiniKissible, your majesty,” answered
Duplan, "the piece Is too large, aud w e
could not arrange It gracefully.”
"Well, cut It. then!”
“Cut a treasure such as that! Oh.
madam, 1 could not do such a thing!”
"Nonsense!” cried Josephine. The
lace was draped on her shoulders; she
knew how she wanted It; so she calmly
took a pair of scissors, and In a second
had it set right, while loug. narrow
pieces of the priceless stuff fell rouud
her.
At this moment the Emperor entered
the room. "Cannibale!" b» cried. And
he gave her a sounding slap on her
violently rouged cheeks, which were
soon covered with tears. Duplan dis
creetly withdrew, and the lace was
thrown into a chest of drawers. Jo
sephine could not I war the sight of
after that, and gave It to Mme. I’eru»-
set. her favorite maid. The odd bits of
It have now been sold for $2.000. Au-
other bundle fetched $1.000.
The passion of Josephine for Ince
caused frequently scenes betweeu her
and Napoleon. She would have lace,
and she seldom let anythiug stand Iu
the way of acquiring it. It is even
said that this frivolous fancy helped
to bring alsjut her downfall, for Na
poleon, who at first would not hear of
forsaking her. one day said to the
Prince De Wagram: "The cup is full
now, Prince. What do you think Jo
sephine did lately? -Nobbled' one of
my young generals, and made him pass
lace for her In his top boots through

Orty on and Washington Should Do It
While the national convention of the
W. C. T. U. was In session in Wash
ington one of the California delegates,
an elderly lady, went into a restaurant
on G street, looked the bill of fare over
carefully, and ordered fried oysters.
"How many?” asked the waiter.
“Oh,” she said, remembering the di
minutive oyster of California, “1 guess
a dozen and a half will do.”
The waiter lifted his eyebrows, but
took the order back to the kitchen. In
due time he appeared with an enormous
platter full of fried oysters, each half
as large as a man's hand.
The California lmly nearly fainted.
“Take them away,” she gasped. “I
never, never ordered that great mass of
food.”
"That’s a dozen and a half fried oys
ters, ma’am.” the waiter replied.
There was some hysterical but vain
argument on the part of the delegate
from California.
She was told she would have to pay
for the oysters, but she needn't eat
them unless she chose to do so.
Just then Senator Spooner came In
nnd sat down at the next table. The
W. C. T. V. delegate, almost In tears,
leaned over and asked Imploringly :”Ob.
sir. do you like fried oysters?"
Senator Spooner stared. "I have
eaten them, madam,” he replied, with
dignity.
'“Then please buy these; please,
please do.”
"Hut,” said the Senator, laughing.
“I never ent them now, for I And they
promote Indigestion.”
The lady exhibited her white ribbon
badge and implored again: "Oh, you
haven't eaten anything yet; please buy
these,”
“Well, I’ll buy them, but I assure
you madam, I do not contract to eat
them.”
And he paid the check, while tlie
delegate from California almost ran
out of the restaurant.

There’s a good story told on a young
fellow here noted for bls closeness. He
went to spend the night with a friend.
During the entire night he lietra.ved
much restlessness, which kept the host
wide awake, anil Anally the »lumberer
betrayed signs of violent emotion.
"He’s going to have a nightmare,” said
the friend, "but he always grumbles so
when you wake him up that I hate to
disturb him." He waited a while
longer, sitting up In lied staring on the
miserable sleeper, nnd finally, lieeom-
lug alarmed, he roused him. He sprang
up In tied, glared wildly around and
said: "Where am I? I don’t see the
storm?”
“Why, here In my room.” said lhe
host, soothingly: “you remember you
stayed all ulght with me? I Ih g your
pardon for waking you up, but you
carried on so I had to.”
“Beg my pardon.” gasped the guest.
“I shall never I* grateful enough to
you. I dreamed I waa out with Miss
Bud and a terrible storm came up. and
my shoes were new. and I was Just or
dering a coupe for two when you roused
me. Old boy, you have saved me a
dollar.”
And the host says be was actually
afraid to go to sleep again that night,
for fear the coupe would come. Louis
