They came back from their shopping In time fur luncheon, and as they entered the bouse the old lady said to Miranda: "Your dream has come true. Look at your muff."

I can see what you mean. Only in that case what was the point of the dream?" "If I tell you, you won't like it." "Never mind." "Well, it might teach you to consider your prizes In life a little differently." "In any case," snapped Miranda, "I'll never believe in a dream again." PUTTING PIN3 IN PAPERS. Two Little Girls and a Machine Pack Thousands In a Day. According to the Merrlam census, there were used in these United States during the year 1900 no less than 1 billion pins, says the Philadelphia Ledger. This count excludes hair pins, safety pins and others, which, for various reasons, bear the common family name, and confines itself merely to the familiar and necessary adjunct to the every day toilet The first pins made in this country were very crude indeed, merely a bit of wire twisted into a knot for a head at one end and sharpened to a point at the ether. Their successors of today undergo a surprising variety of operations before they are considered fit for use. In comparison with the size of the object manufactured the operations seem bewilderingly numerous, but if there be other process more remarkable than another lt Is "papering the pins." The papers, having been passed through an ingenious machine, which, at regular intervals, according to the size of the pin, pinches up a fold and pricks a hole In it, are ready to receive the pins. For this purpose there Is another machine, worked by two children. One feeds the pins, the other the papers. The first part of the machine la a box about twelve inches long, six broad and four deep. The .bottom is composed cf small square steel bar sufficiently far apart to let the shank of the pin fail through, but not the head. Thece bars are Just as thick as the space between papered pins. The lower part of the bottom of the box is made to detach itself as soon as the row of pins is complete. Row after row, at regular Intervals. Is received and passed down a corresponding set of grooves, until It reaches the ready pricked reaper. By the nicest possible adjustment thews pins come exactly to their places and are pressed into them. By this method two little girls can in one day put up many thousands of NEXT PRESIDENT OF MEXICO. Prediction That Porfirlo Diaz Will T.; sign After His The July issuo of Success is autho;' lty for the statement that before th. end of the year Joso Ives Limantour the minister of finance of Mexico, wil occupy the presidential chair so lonj held by Porfirlo Diaz. President Din: will be renominated and b i will resign shortly afterward in favoi of Senor Limantour, whom he has per sonally selected as a successor. Pros ident Diaz will take this action in or der to save his country from an elec tion agitation for which lt is unpro pared. In describing Senor Limantour Success says: Limantour does not appear to be 48 years old. Notwithstanding the fad that his hair, for years past, has beei prematurely gray, his face keen auc alert, his carriage erect, his fori. though slight, well set up, and his stej elastic. His face of ivory-lik- e pallor, intellectual and commanding, bein. characterized by an ample foreheal and a pronounced and nose. He is apt to strike those whj meet him for the first time as somoj what cold and reserved. This imprea slon gradually wears off as one talk! with him and comes under the influ ence of his personal magnetism. Nev ertheless. If the interview hinges on business, Limantour never lays asldt his caution, and it would be a hopelesj task to try to entrap him into unguard ed statements or inconsiderate prom ises. It is not easy to win his con! dence, but, when it is once bestowed. his kindness is inexhaustible. His strength as a public man lies in his mature and Judg ment and He has nq weak points, and his character is sq well rounded that it causes sore per plexlty to his enemies, who try ix vain to find a flaw in his armor. Ure like many other Spanish-Americapo litlcal men, he has an absolutely clean record in public and private life, an the Tiempo, a conservative daily news paper, remarked at the time whe some Journals were disparaging hia that it was infinitely to that states man's credit that the worst thing tht j his enemies could lay at his door wa that his name ended In "our." Muclj of the equanimity which he opposes t all the vicissitudes of public llfj may be attributed to the fact that h is, like Roosevelt and Balfour, a maa of a wide range of activities and c Intellectual and artistic tastes, la which, during bis leisure moments, h finds relaxation from the strain cf business.

"Darling," he said softly, and at tha same time with a certain degree of firm ness. "I enjoyed your letters greatly, while I was away. "Oh, did you, George!" cried the beautiful girl, her face glowing with pleasure. "Yes, Ethel, I did," he said, "despite the fact that I could hardly approve of some of the phraseB you used." "Oh, I know I can't write well, George," she said penitently, whi! she toyed with his silken mustache, " but you know what I meant." "Yes," I know what you meant," ha said patronizingly, but lt was nevertheless open to misconstruction ancl one cannot be too careful. I am some what of a stickler In that lino you know. Now, In your last letter you began "My Dearest Darling.' " "Oh, George!" And the beautiful girl tried to hide her blushes la his shoulder. "Tut tut," he eald, "don't be foolish! That would indicate, you see, that you had several other darlings. Of course, lt gives me the preference as being the dearest, and then it doesn't look right for a girl to have too many darlings. One ought to be sufficent, especially when she Is engaged. "Why, George!" She had her head off his shoulder now. "Oh, of course I know what yoj mean," he went on in his superior way, "but one might .as well be correct Now, in another letter, you called me your 'ownle own'. That doesn't make sense. 'Ownle own' conveys no more meaning than 'own. "George!" There was a menace In her tone, but he was too busy with his little lesson to notice it "Another time" he began. "Never mind the other time," she Interrupted. "Why, my dear, I was only giving you a little instruction in the use of English. Ob, yes; my use of language doesn't suit" The beautiful girl was a trifle excited. "My dearest" "But I'll improve I'll do better. I suppose if I called a man Mr. Jones it would indicate that there were other Jones who were not to be callel Mister'? " well well, yes. And If I ever meet another man named Jones, George Marlon Jones, I'll take pains to call him Mr. Jones. Good night" As George Marion Jones walked "U- m"Urn slowly home he resolved never again to find fault with the wording of a lov letter.
