May God ever bless my darling the sweetest, most helpful angel who ever stooped to bless a man." Has there ever, we wonder, lived a wife, to whom a more delicate and beautiful tribute was paid than those verses, of which the burden is, "I love thee, I love thee, 'tis all that I can say." "I want thee much " Nathaniel Haw thorne wrote to his wife, many yeers after his long patience had won for him the flower "that was lent from heaven to, show the possibilities of the human soul." "Thou are the only person in the world that ever was necessary to me. And now I am only myself when thou art within my reach. Thou art an unspeakably beloved woman." Sophia Hawthorne was little better than a chronic invalid; and it may be that this physical weakness woke all the deep chivalry and tenderness of the man. And he reaped a rich reward re-ward fpr an almost unrivaled devotion devo-tion in the "atmosphere of love and happiness and inspiration" with which his delicate wife always surrounded him. - The wedded life of Wordsworth with his cousin, "the phantom of delight," was a poem more exquisitely beautiful than any his pen ever wrote. Mrs. Wordsworth was never fair to look upon, but she had that priceless and rarer beauty of soul which made her life "a center of svv wetness" to all around her. "All that she has been to me," the poet once said in his latter lat-ter days, "none but God and myself can ever know"; and It would be difficult dif-ficult to find a more touching and beautiful picture in the gallery-of great men's lives than that of Wordsworth Words-worth and his wife, both bowed under the burden of many years and almost blind, "walking hand in hand together in the garden with all the blissful ab- Sorcve Reflections li.xcKelor Girl. There is considerable learned discussion dis-cussion and poring over statistics in progress to ascertain whether or not college women marry as generally as they ought to, and, if not, why not. The government seems inclined to punish matrimony among its employes by discharging the guilty woman. New York and some other cities have gone to the courts to find out if they canr.ot discharge a woman teacher who so far loses her self-respect as to marry. Shall we ever reach the happy day when it will be nobody's business whether a woman marries or not? As to the allegations that college women do not marry as generally as they might, could and should, it may be because they don't want to, and then again it may be because men don't like educated women. College women may not marry, but you can usually trust all the female Idiots to get two husbands apiece. .".

It Is wonderful how much the reputation repu-tation of some men depends on what other people think they know. The "nagging woman" and the "outdoor "out-door woman" do not trot in the same class. No self-respecting woman ought to want to be a White Man's Burden. The woman with a history may not have loved and lost. She may have got him. If man has a broader sense of justice jus-tice than woman, as he likes to claim.

A man was brought up in a provincial provin-cial court on a charge of stealing a sack of flour and was very severely handled by the prosecuting lawyer, who had once made himself notorious by going Into bankruptcy, which was the only means by which he could escape his debts, "You admit that you stole the sack of flour?" asked the counsel, sternly. "Yes; but I took it honestly and in broad daylight, to save my children from starvation,-' pleaded the prisoner. pris-oner. "You call that fconesty, do you?" sneered the lawyer. "I call it amazing impudence. Stealing is stealing, from whatever point of view you care to look at it." "Just so, mister, but It don't alius bring the same punishment," retorted the man In the dock. "For instance, I shouldn't have been here now if I'd done as you used to do bought or ordered or-dered the flour, and never paid for It!- And even the magistrate chuckled behind his papers at the bullying lawyer's law-yer's discomfiture.

I - It never needed "the welding touch of a great sorrow" to make the lives of Archbishop Tait and his devoted wife "a perfect whole." Speaking of her many years after she had been taken from him, he said: "To part from her, if only for a day, was a pain only less intense than the pleasure with which I returned to her; and when I took her with me It was one of the purest joys given to man to watch the meeting between her and our children." see When David Livingstone had passed his thirtieth birthday , with barely a thought for such "an indulgence as wooing and weddirg," he . declared humorously that when he was a little less busy he would send home an advertisement ad-vertisement for a wife, "preferably a decent sort of widow"; and yet so unconsciously un-consciously near was his fate that only a year later he was introducing his bride, Mary Moffat, to the home he had built, largely with his own hands, at Mabotsa. From that "supremely "su-premely happy hour" to the day when, eighteen years later, he received her "last faint whisperings" at Shupanga, no man ever had a more self-sacrificing, brave, devoted wife than the missionary's daughter. In fact, they were more like two happy, light-hearted children than sedate se-date married folk, and under the magic of their merriment the hardships hard-ships and dangers of life in the heart of the dark continent were stripped of all their terrors. ' Jean Paul RIchler confessed that he never even suspected the potentialities potential-ities of human happiness until he met Caroline Mayer, "that sweetest and most gifted of women." when he was fast approaching his fortieth year; and that he had no monopoly of the resultant happiness is proved by his wife's declaration that "Richter is the purest, the holiest, the most godlike man that lives. To be the wife of such a man is the greatest glory that can 'all to a woman"; while of his wife Richter once wrote: "I thought when I married her - that I had sounded the depths of 'human love; but I have since realized how unfathomable is the heart in which a noble woman ha3 hT shrine." is a woman who Is eternally discussing discuss-ing her own achievements.

Mrs. Russei Sage discusses the difficulties diffi-culties of housekeeping in a current periodical. After saying that she has three servants in her house who have been with her for periods varying from ten to thirty years, Mrs. Sage soberly remarks: "Cooks are difficult to keep, as they are more in demand in marriage. Men like to marry cooks. They feel that the food question is settled then, whereas chambermaids and waitresses do not appeal as closely close-ly to a man's interests." This is better bet-ter than anything the bachelor girl ever reflected. . Men have always been devoted to tobacco, which soothes the nerves, and women to, tea which harrows them up. Savants who make mankind their special study should find food for thought in this fact. There is a lot of nonsense written by blithering idiots about "understanding "under-standing women." They set up a sphinx and call it a woman and then make a great fuss over "analyzing" her. As a matter of fact the lines of marked difference in character between be-tween men and women are much smaller and less conspicuous than the broad, underlying traits which are common to humanity.

It was a ramshackle little branch railway; but it was the best they had in the neighborhood, and they pat up with it, says an English exchange. It so happened, a little while ago, that a newly arrived resident was expecting expect-ing a fowlhouse to reach the local Charing Cross, and he chartered a dray and trundled It ' off to the to him hitherto unknown station to fetch it. Arrived there, he saw his purchase, loaded it on to his wagon and started for home. Oa the way he met a man in. uniform, uni-form, with the word "Statlonmaster" on his cap.

Itself heard. The horrors of Avignon, and of Paris, the brutality with which tho royal family had been treated, nd the abolition of all religious ties and duties, had many and bitter opponents. oppo-nents. " In these days of wonderful hopes and fears there was, in Maiden Lane, a very handsome residence an old house even in the days of Washington, Washing-ton, for Peter Van Clyffe had built it early in the century as a bridal present pres-ent to his daughter when Bhe married Philip Moran, a lawyer who grew to eminence among colonial judges. . - One afternoon in April, 1791, two men were standing talking opposite to the entrance gates of the pleasant place. They were Capt. Joris Van Heemskirk, a member, of the Congress then sitting in Federal Hall, Broad street, and Jacobus Van Ariens, a wealthy citizen, and a deacon in the Dutch church. Van Heemskirk believed be-lieved in France; the tragedies she had been enacting In the holy name of liberty, though they had saddened, had, "hitherto, not discouraged him. But the news received that , morning had almost killed his hopes for the spread of republican ideas in Europe. "Van Ariens," he said warmly, "this treatment of King Louis and his family fam-ily is hardly to be believed. It is too much, and too far. After this, no one can foresee what may happen in France." .-''- "That is the truth, my friend," answered an-swered Van Ariens. "The French have gone mad. We won our freedom without with-out massacres." "We had Washington and Franklin, and other good and wise leaders who feared God and loved men.'"' "So I said to the Count de Moustier but one hour ago. Yet if we were prudent and merciful It was because we are religious. When men are irreligious, ir-religious, the Lord forsakes them; and if bloodshed and bankruptcy follow fol-low It is not to be wondered at, I am but a tanner and currier, as you know, but I have had experiences; and I do not believe In the future of a people who are without a God and without- 4. religion." ' -"Well, so it Is. Van Ariens. I will now be silent, and wait for the echo; but I fear that God has not yet said "Let there be peace.' I saw you last night at Mr. Hamilton's with -ycTir soTV and daughter. " You made a noble en- trance." "Well, then, the truth is the truth. My Arenta is worth looking at; and as for Rem,, he was not made in a day. God is good, who gives us boys and girls to sit so near our hearts!" "And such a fair, free city for a home!" said Van Heemkirk as he looked up and down the sunshiny street. "New York is not perfect, but we love her. Right or wrong, we love her; jast as we love our moder, and our little children." "That, also, is what the Domlne eays, answered Van Ariens; "and yet; he likes not that New York favors the French so much." "He Is a good man. With you, last night, was a little maid a great beauty beau-ty I thought her but I, knew her not. Is 'she then a stranger?" "A stranger! Come, come! The little lit-tle one is a very child of New York. She Is the daughter of Dr. Moran Dr. John, as we all call him." "Well, look now, I thought In her face there was something that went to my heart and memory." "And yet, in one way, she Is a stranger.

Then the two old men were silent, ylut their eyes were fixed on the youth nd maiden, wno were siowiy aavanc- ling toward them.

With a respectful eagerness, eag-erness, full of admiration, he talked to her; and she answered his words whatever they were with a smile that might have moved mountains. They passed the two old men without any consciousness of their presence, and Van Heemskirk smiled, and then sighed, and then said softly "So much youth, and beauty, and happiness! It Is a benediction to have seen it! I shall not reprove Joris at this time. But now I must go back to Federal Hall." When their eyes turned to the Moran house the vision of youth and beauty had dissolved. Van Heems-kirk's Heems-kirk's grandson, Lieut. Hyde, was hastening towards Broadway; and the lovely Cornelia Moran was sauntering up the garden of her home, stooping occasionally to examine the pearl- powdered auriculas or to twine around its. support some vine, straggling out of its proper place. Then Van Ariens hurried down to his tanning pits in the swamp; and Van Heemskirk went thoughtfully to Broad street. When he reached Federal Fed-eral Hall, he stood a minute in the doorway; and with Inspired eyes looked at the splendid, moving p'e-ture; p'e-ture; then he walked proudly toward the Hall of Representatives, saying to himself, with silent exultation as ht went: "The Seat of Government! Let who will, have it; New York Is the Crowning Crown-ing City. Her merchants shall be princes, her traffickers the honorable of the earth ; the harvest of her rivers shall be her royal revenue, and the marts of all nations shall be In her streets." CHAPTER II. This Is the Way of Love. Cornelia lingered in the garden, because be-cause she had suddenly, and as yet unconsciously, un-consciously, entered into that tender mystery, so common and so sovereign, which we call Love. In Hyde's presence pres-ence she had been suffused with a bewildering, profound emotion, which had fallen on her as the gentle showers fall, to make the flowers of spring. This handsome youth, whom she had only seen twice, and in the most formal for-mal manner, affected her as no other mortal . ever done. She was a little afraid. "I have met him but twice,, she thought; "and it. is as if I had a new, strange, exquisite life. Ought I tell my mother? But how can I? I have no words to explain I do not understand under-stand Alas ! if I should be growing wicked!" The thought made her start; she hastened her steps towards the large entrance door, and as she approached it a negro in a fine livery of blue and white threw the door wide open for her. She turned quickly out of the hall, Into a parlor full of sunshine. A lady sat there hemstitching a damask dam-ask napkin ; a lady of dainty plainness, plain-ness, with a face full of graven experience exper-ience and mellow character. At Cornelia Cor-nelia entered she looked up with smile, and said, as she slightly raised her work, "it is the last of the dozen, Cornelia." "You make me ashamed of my Idleness, Idle-ness, mother. I went to Embree's for the linen thread, and he had Just opened some English gauzes and lutestrings. lute-strings. Mrs. Willets was choosing a piece for a new gown, for she la to dine with the President next week, and she was so polite as to ask my opinion about the goods. Afterwards, I walked to Wall street with her; and coming back I met on Broadway, Lieut. Hyde, walked home with mv. Was it wrong? I mean was it polite I mean the proper thing to permit? I knew not how to prevent it." " "How often have you met Lieut Hyde?" "I met him for the first time last night. He was at the Sylvesters. "And pray what did Lieut. Hyde say to you this afternoon?" "He gave me the flowers, and he told me about a beautiful opera, of which I had never before heard. It Is called "Figaro. He asked permission permis-sion to bring me some of the airs to-night, and I said some civilities. I think they meant "Yes. Did I do wrong, mother?" "I will say 'no, my dear; as you have given the Invitation. But to prevent an .appearance of too exclusive exclu-sive Intimacy, write to Arenta, and ask her and Rem to take tea with us." "Mother, Arenta has bought a blue lutestring. Shall I not also have a new gown? The gauzes are very sweet and genteel, and I think Mrs. "Jay will, not forget to ask me to her dance next week. Mr. Jefferson is sure to be there, and 1 wish to walk a minuet with him." "I told Mrs. Willets, and with such a queer little laugh Bhe asked me if his red breeches did not make me thtnk of the guillotine?' I do not think Mrs. Willets likes Mr. Jefferson very much ; but, all the same, I wish to dance once with him. I think it will be something to talk about when I am an old woman.' "My dear one, that is so far off. Go now, and write to Arenta."." (To be continued.) THIS IS ABOUT THE LIMIT. Massachusetts Banker Gives Champion Cham-pion Sample of Yankee Thrift. The proverbial Yankee thrift shows up big in a story now going the rounds reminiscent of a Western Massachusetts banker who died during dur-ing the past year. He believed in the maxim "A penny saved is a penny pen-ny earned" with a vengeance. His clerks were denied the luxury of pads of paper and, were required to figure on the backs of old envelopes that had been carefully prepared by the office boy in his leisure moments. The banker had a son-in-law who builded wisely by Inviting his father- in-law to spend a few weeks with him at the seashore. The close-fisted banker decided to unloosen to the extent ex-tent of having the daily newspapers that the bank had subcribed for sent to him after the quotations had been inspected. He left explicit instructions instruc-tions that the advertising pages were to be cut and the edges trimmed so as to save postage. - The papers, which were sent every other day were 'too heavy for the one-cent limit, though considerably Inside In-side the weight allowable for two 9nts. It was a matter of facetious comment in the bank that the "old man" was not getting full value for bis two-cent expenditure for postage. The margin In favor of Uncle Sam, however, diminished appreciably after the third Instalment of literature had been forwarded, the cashier receiving a postal card that bore the following request: "Mall papers In single wrappers every four days, and they will require but three cents postage." GOOD CUSTOMER OF FRANCE. England Makes Heavy Purchases from Her, Old-Time Foe. ..... . Jean Flnot, editor of the Revue des Revues, recently put the relations between be-tween France and England in a most striking fashion. He said: "Great Britain deserves the name of the richest and most important of French colonies. France 13 so bound up with her fate that the disappearance disappear-ance of England's economic power would cause her incalculable mischief. Our total exports in 1901 were only 4,155,00,000 francs, of which England Eng-land took 1,264,000,000 francs, or more than 30 per cent of all the merchandise mer-chandise which we cast on the world's market. But even of more importance im-portance is the fact that the amount of English purchases in France is constantly growing. From 1,032,000,-000 1,032,000,-000 francs In 1896 It rose to 1,132,000,-000 1,132,000,-000 francs In 1897, to .1,238,000,000 francs in 1899, and to 1,264,000,000 francs in 1901, thus showing an increase in-crease of 222,000,000 francs, or over 22 per cent In five years: Now the purchases from the mother country of all the French colonies, including Algeria, 259,000,000 francs, and Tunis, about 34,000,000 francs, together with those scattered all over the world, about 183,000,000 francs, did not amount in 1900 to more than 476,000,-000 476,000,-000 francs. Besides this colossal amount of purchases, the English yearly spend considerable sums In France. The money left in our country coun-try by Englishmen visiting Paris or their favorite resorts Is commonly estimated at 500,000,000 francs, thus making 1,800,000,000 francs as the formidable total yearly paid by Eng land to France." REED AS A LOVER OF PEACE. Rebellion a Reflection Against Com mon Sense of the Race." The late Thomas B., Reed's make-up, mental and physical, fitted him for conflict, yet he was a lover of peace. The American Friend, the organ of the orthodox Quakers, publishes this week extracts from letters which Mr. Reed wrote during the Spanish, war and since, which are very characteristic of the man. It seems that in a letter written to his Quaker friend in March, 1898, he complained that he had re-, ceived so little credit from peace societies so-cieties for his consistent service as a peace man, while Mr. Long, secretary of the navy, was- the idol of the societies. socie-ties. He said In a bote at the end of this letter: "Does thee remember the book of Jonathan Dymond? I have never forgotten it, and have it yet." Thirty-eight years before when he was a student at Bowdoin this Quaker friend had given himra copy of "Essays on the Principles of Morality," written writ-ten by the English Quaker, Jonathan Dymond, in 1829. ' After President McKinley had made a speech assigning to Providence responsibility re-sponsibility for the war with Spain, Mr. Reed wrote to this seme friend, "No, it is the devil,' and he also added, add-ed, "There is something better than, the fat of rams or even going to meeting meet-ing regularly .TV In 1901 his Quaker friend sent him a pamphlet on war, to which he replied that he would read it, "although Jonathan Dymond made up my mind on it a good many years ago." This same correspondent also quotes Mr. Reed as saying that the fact that the North and the South had to settle their conflict as they did, "is a tremendous reflection against the common sense of the rce."
