Old Uncle Mote Maneon wna mortal ly offended when hi niece, Jenny Clif ford, choa to marry me Instead of a weazemid, bespectacled old contempo rary of hla own. He hud never spoken to her since, and w-e naturully enter tained no very exalted hopes of any teatuinentary recollections on his part. And the $100 bill, therefore, poasessed th charm of au agreeable surprise. Into tha bargain. "Charles," sold Jenny, under breath, "whut ahull we do with it?" "That la th very question," said t "Do you know, Jenny" I hraltnted a little hare, "Yea?" ah responded, interroga tively.

"Charley, that ian't a bit like you." "Well, then, what do you auggrat?" "1 should so like to give a social purty with It," -aid Jenny, cuaxingly. "Only think how often we've been invited out since w were married, and never hat had a chance to return any of the hos pitalities of our friends. The musi cians, the supper, and all, would come within the hundred dollar." "And you are absurd enough to wish to eat, and drink, and dance up a sum Uk that!" I cried. "No, no, Jennet le, It la entirely out of the question." "A new velvet suit for th bnliy?" suggested Jenny, pouting a little at th emphasis of my words. "How would it correspond with th reat of our surroundings ?" 1 asked, uot without an accent of bitterness. "You had a great deal better suggest a new winter suit and overcoat for me. You never seem to observe how shabby 1 am getting." "Nobody noticea a genllemun's dress," snid Jenny. "I can make vour overcoat look very nice w ith fresh bind ing ami new bultomr but how I should like a seal. kin jacket!" "Jenny," sitld I, somewhat dUguetecl, "I had no Idea you could be so selfish." "Selfish, Indeed!" cried ah. "1 would Hke to know whether you have yet suit- geated anything which wna not for your own stieclal benefit and use!" We were both llni.

STRANGE CASES OF POISONING Ulla Bite Wa Hot Uradljr, Bat t'sa brella Tree "Wmm. In the far northeastern part of Ari zona territory, that is to say In. Navajo county, a young man w-as bitten by s Gila morjster rt?eutly. Almost at the tame time, at Yuma, in the extreme southwestern corner of the territory. a little girl ate some berries that fell from the umbrella trees thut grow so plentiful in southern Arizona. The young man lived, but the little maiden died. The lnlter case is the more re markable, perhaps, for until this in stance not even the medical profession suspected that there was anything poisonous about the umbrella tree. The child's name wa Dora I.yr.cli, her fa ther being well-known in Yuma. The lucky young man in the northeast was Orrin Harney, who had started out with a party for Utah. He wa following a wagon up a hill and "scotching" It with rocks. He reached down for a rock and picked up a Gila monster. The monster's head had to be cuU "off to loosen the grip on R.irney'a hand. The latter suffered severe pain for two days, but then recovered. His only remedies were tobacco and whisky.

Parent! by Mas Una Virtnnllr KxtlD KUlshetl the Deep-Sen Monster. Whalers, and especially the man with the harpoon, have always been popular characters, and, indeed, the perils and ixpluita of their trade form not the least stirring chapter in the romnncc ot commerce, says Uie London Graphic. It w ill, therefore, touch must of us with .some slight tense of !os lo learn as n correspondent of the Tall Mall Gazette (insure us that, ns fur a the arctic seaa are concerned, that chapter is closed. This is a prosaic age, and the results of Hint famous corporation of whalers, the Dundee Arc-tie Fisheries (.nipany, limited, for the last tw o years have, it is snid, not only not satisfied the shareholders, but have resulted In a heavy low. The right whale, which provides the famous bone, has become so senrce that a ship if nowadays lucky if it be rewarded by even one small one as the reward of a whole season's struggle with arctic fog nmd ice. A parallel might be drawn between the pursuit of the urctic leviathan and the African behemoth, the elephant.

She put her arms around his neck and looked up into his eyes. "Yes," she said, "I believe in love iu a collage. I know Unit I could find happiness there with you." "My darling! he ex claimed, rapturously. "Hut," she per- t istcd, earnestly, "you must not petit Into your head that I am not nn ex pert on cottages. Youi mustn't think you ran pnlm off a cabin or a shanty on me ami make me think it is a cot tage. Many a drenm of bliss is wrecked through n misunderstanding of the meaning of the word 'cottage.' When you hove one that you would like to show me I w ill be glad to pass upon it. There must be room enough, you know, so that love won't be crowded on to the back steps every time one of us wants to turn around.

Jedcdiah Dewey, nil ancestor of Admiral Dewey, waa holding rervieea In honor of the nctory in llciiningt.in, nnd. as he was right and proper, was givirg Provi dence all tile credit for the triumph of the American arms. Ethan Allen, who was present, chafed under Ihisiieiileet of his own part in the buttle, nnd, ris ing in his pew in the very middle of the "long prayer," ns it is called, said: "Parson Dewcv. Parson Dewey, Par son Dewey." The clergyman stopped and opened his eyes. The intrepid Al len went on: "Please mention to the Lord about my being there." Not daunted by this outrageous interrup tion, the holy man thundered: "Sit down, thou bold blasphemer, 'and lis ten to the Word of God." Detroit Free Press. A Keen Clear rtriln.
