EARS, idle tears! Niobe dissolved ! My dear child. what on earth is the matter?" Time: four of a summer afternoon. Place : a pretty bou doir, furnished in the fashion of to- " 1 day, modelled on the style of Louis Q iinze, with a dash of "Liberty" thrown in, and modern accessories. 6uh as crystal flower vases, three-volume novels, and photograph stands, juxta posed with Queen Anne silver and knick r:ij:ks ancient and modern Dramatis Personae: a graceful figure in white, flung with an air of desolation on the -oor beside a sofa, her eharniing nuoue visible beneath delicious little rows of golden curls, her frame shaken by sobs; an outer woman 6tandmg a few yards distant, dark, beautifully dressed, ''good locking enough for anything" without being distinctly handsome, aged som. wnere within the right side of thirty. and wearing an expression half compas sionate, half amused. There is a sus picion of raillery in her voice, which is It and deeply resented by the fair sor rower. Anger is often akin to sorrow as jnty is to love, and the voice which re sponds to the question when reiterated is decidedly petulant. "I wish you would go away and leave me alone.'' ''I shall not do anything of the sort," re turns the other. "I am going to talk to you, and I do not care in the least whether yon are angry or not, although I Lad much rather you would take my remarks in good part." i:Oh," responds the voice, still smoth ered in the sofa cushions, but losing nothing of its resentful quality. "I know how clever you are. and that you think that you can 'manage eyery one's t3a;rs, a great deal better than them- 'she intends this to be a nasty one," as a matter of fact, it does not fall very pleasantly on the ears of her inter-bi?-.tor; but she sits down on the sofa, a; J replies with good humor, "Weil, cy love, I may confidently say that I could manage your affairs a great deal tetter than you manage them yourself, &nd that if 1 were you, I would have Mr. Clement Laseelles at my feet in a very s-itfitime." "Perhaps you have him there now!" says the prostrate one, ceasing to sob i trving to sneer instead. 'Well, Dolly dear, to tell you the tut::, I fail myself to recognize in that yctir.g man the charm which I ob&erve J r,a? tor for some people; Indeed, 1 j ium u ptieui, nuu nil ciiUMCi - "nS-.v good opinion of himself, and, if T-.i ask my candid opinion, I think that wall be all the better for being Pcrothy flounces up in a moment. "I trouble you not to insult my -:er. ?." she crie?,.with flaming cheeks. ' 'And it is not very easy to believe your -et-rity when ho was sitting in your . I' cset all last night, and you were out malting with him fcr two hours this earning." ' In any case," replies Mrs. Dalton ut, "your remarks prove that I have time and opportunity to form an rF-E:cn cf his qualities. I don't deny t- at he is good-looking, but it is intoler-f-He that he should be so conscious of it I admit that he is not without a certain aconnt of cleverness, and has been :a:r;y well educated; but I violently ob to his thinking himself able to sit in j H cm en t on people a good d al older End cleverer than himself." "On you, for instance'" cries Dolly. "No, I was not thinking of myself, though I admit the soft impeachment 'the one regarding my age, at least); and hat I dislike most of all is his placing himself on a pedestal to be looked at -nd longed for by by pretty, silly -ittle girls, who ought to know better.'' Dolly stiffens her back, and says, with in assumption of dignity which sits in differently well upon her, "If you will excuse me, I should prefer not discuss ing Mr. Laseelles with you. You are perfectly welcome to your opinion of Lira, and I claim the liberty of retaining mine." Then, her majesty suddenly t.ppling over, she says vindictively, in qv.ite a different tone of yoice, "Perhaps y r'U think I am such a fool that I don't through your mean abuse of him ?" "That I may win and wear him my f'f :" suggest"? Mrs. Dalton, quite goou Wnoredly. "No, my dear and acute ebld, believe me, you have not fathom f d an 1 unmasked my baseness this time. I know your dear and sensitive little c a!t is set upon this fascinating young I don't think there is really any t-'-' -i in him, and I am rcagnanimotia fc-".ich to be ready to show you how to "till t. - obtain his affections, arid to make him the .Suppliant instead of you." &, Suppliant !" cries Dolly, with fasti flames from Lei- burning heart ascending to hei cheeks. . . - , 5 ..

"Keep them to yourself!" retorts Dolly, tartly. "The first I must, whether or no, but the latter shall be yours. Come, dear child, you know I am fond of you; be lieve me when I say that I would not have your enchanter as a gift, and also that I am desirous to 6ee him subjugat ed by you. He shall be yours, 3 promise, and I will only make one con dition." Dolly seats herself on the sofa, aud al lows Mrs. Dalton to take her hand, though she looks rather sulky. Still, she does, poor little girl, regard Mr. Clement Laseelles as the first prize in the marriage lottery, and is willing to take upon herself his part of the con tract : to worship him with her body and endow him with all her worldly goods. For in a small way she is an heiress, though he is not destitute of money, and has an excellent position. Truth to tell, the young man is not what is called "a 11 sort;" he has good looks, good brains ciKl good manners, when he is not egged to taking liberties by the silly flatter its of the other sex. Poor Dolly loves him madly, and has innocently shown her pleasure in his notice and her suf ferings at his neglect. Mrs. Dalton, having paused to give due effect to her words, Doily, aftei a moment, is con Strained to'say rather sulkily: "Well!" "You must take the vow first." "What vowr" with latent irritation. "The vow never to tell any human be ing Mr. Laseelles least of" all that I, or, for the matter of that, any one, ad vised you how to act toward him. "O, of course, I promi-e." "Promises are like pie crust," replies Mrs. Dalton; then with an air of great solemnity, she goes to a small bookcase at the end of the room, and comes back with a bible. "You must kiss the book," she says. "O, no," cries Dolly, frightened. For 6 he knows that she never kept a secret in her life, and is terrified at being put on an oath which she may break in spite of herself a few hours later. "Well," says Mrs. Dalton, firmly, "do you want him or do you nots" "Yes," cries Dolly, with tears in her eyes. 'T do." "Then kiss the book." "But how do I knosv there is anything in what you are going to tell me," says doubting Dolly. "Because I say so. Do I not know the world and menr" Dolly takes the book trembling. "But what am I to say?" she falters." "Say: 'I swear not to tell Clement La seelles or any other person that Marion Dalton advised me "how to win his af fections.' " With a sudden desperate gesture Dolly kisses the book and repeats the formu la. "Now, then!" she cries out, excit edly. Mrs. Dalton takes up her parable. "Clement is really fond of you he would be exceedingly fond of you if you only allowed him." "If I allowed him!" gnsps Dolly. "Yes," repeats her adviser. "By al lowing him, I don't mean throwing your self at his head, and showing him that you adore him ; but by making . him doubt your love and his own capacity for pleasing you. Different men want dif ferent treatment. There is nothing so delightful to some as to see and know that a woman cares for them it adds ten-foid to their devotion for her; but I am bound to say these men are in the minority. - Most cflhemare far more stimulated by doubts and fears the wo man becomes more dear as she seems to be more distent, and, as a rule, when a man is literally crazy about one of our sex, it is because she has worried and tormented him, and kept him on a con tinual balance between hope and fear. Now you, and others like you, have so hung" upon Clement Lascelle's words and looks, have so positively shown him that he is a great being, a lofty intellect, a rival to Apollo, that it is not likely he is coming off his pedestal to worship his worshippers. Your only chance, my dear, is to abandon your worship and to counterfeit indifference as best you may, and to let a gradual and startling con viction come over him that you were not really in earnest after all." "It is very easv to talk, though," pouts Dolly. "It is very easy to act, too," returns Marion, "if you are positively certain that your pltn of campaign is going to be successful." "How do I know that it will be ?" "Try it for twenty-four hours, and see how it works." "But I don't know what I am to do." "You must be absolutely guided by me, and not act for one mcment on your own responsibility." "I daresay it will tnrn out all wrong," says Dolly" ungraciously, 'and that I shall lose him altogether." "All right," replies Mrs. Dalton, los ing patience and rising from her Beat. "Do as you like. After all, what on earth does it matter to me whether you are happy or miserable f Go your own way i" Dolly sphhg tip find catoliea her by the arm. "No; t6, Mafioil! dofl'l go; don't b'e angry, tell me.'" , I nill do wnatevei you "Then . hearken ana tbsy. Dick Wyndhara is coming to-nigbi. You knorr hs i rather fond of you.

"Not witS stici a hag stake to win?" (a little sarcastically.) ; . "Ah! you don't know what it is ic love!" cries Dolly. "Not as you do, certainly," retorti Marion, with an inflection of voice which Dolly is net cute enough tc catch. Dick Wyndham arrives in time foi dinner. He is rather fond of Dolly he is exceedingly hard tir), and wants hei money even more tharf he sweet eelf. He is bright and amusing, has a consid erable fund of small talkj is devoted tc sport, and has hot Mr. Laseelles' sesthet ic taste or lofty manner of showing su periority. He has a genuine contempt for a man who talks art and plays clas sical music as Mr. Laseelles has for one who thinks of nothing but hunting, lawn-tennis, and polo, though he rides fairly straight and is an average shot himself. Not a iittle disgusted is Laseelles, therefore, when Dolly, whose sorrowful ness and its cause have greatly Boothed his complacency for the last twenty-foui hours, seems to" have eyes and ears for no one but this half-witted 6oldier at dinner. She is looking charming in a dress of a delicious apricot tint, which he has not seen before (he is a great connoisseur of dress); if he could only catch her eye he would beam on her one of these glances which would have intoxicated her maiden soul. But whereas it has been his wont to meet hei tender pleading glances every two min utes heretofore, to-night he might be Banquo's ghost, and she one of Mac beth's guests, for all she seems to see him. His memory serves him up vari ous sneering and savage quotations on the theme of souvent femme varie. He is so little congenial to his neighbor at dinner that she expresses the most un favorable sentiments regarding him in the drawing-room later on causing Dolly to halt between the desire to defend him hotly, and a sense of pleasure that some one besides herself has suffered by his coldness. Mrs. Dalton makes a pretext for calling Dolly aside "Excellent, my love!" she cries, in high good-humort pressing the girl's arm. "He is enraged beyond measure. He scarcely took his eyes off you. Go on and prosper !" Thus stimulated, Dolly does go on, and prospers exceedingly. When Mr. Laseelles and Dick approach simultane ously she devotes her whole attention to the latter, and has scarcely a word for the former, who presently retirts in tragic dudgeon, and leans against the wall looking like Hamlet, Lord Byron, or any other blighted being in" the sulks. In reality, Dick is the person most tc be pitied, although his face is alight with smiles, and his heart aglow with anticipations of posessing a lovely woman, and satisfying the debtors who, metaphorically speaking, take him by the throat, crying, "pay me what thou owest !" Innocent creature that he is, he expects no treachery, nor dreams that the milk-white bosom palpitates foi the "infernal young prig" over the way. Dolly will play billiards and lawn-tennis with him on the morrow; in the after noon they are to ride together; and, as he sits s coking after the ladies have retired, he reflects on the most approv ed method of asking a certain ques tion. Up to this moment Clement Lascellos ha$ not any necessity for putting his fate to the touch, because he had been absolutely certain of winning; but now that for the first time he has a rival a rival who is progressing by leaps and bounds in his lady's favor, he sees that something must be done. He cannot have been befooled. She loves him oi he, an adept at reading the secrets of souls, must for once have been deluded Perish the thought! With gloomy brow and stately step he retires from the smoking-room, and seeks the solitude of his chamber, but not his couch. The dawn has not long broken ere he courts repose. "Marion!" cries Dolly a few hours later, bursting into her friend's room, whilst that lady no early riser at the best of times still nestles among ner pillows, "read this!" and she seats her self on the bed in a state of great excite ment, whilst Mrs. Dalton languidly per uses the letter thrust into her hands. "I call it great impertinence!" she re marks, returning it to Dolly. "Impertinence!" with wide-open eyes. "Certainly!" and Mrs. Dalton, taking it back, quotes from it: " 'Though I cannot pretend to offer you the one great passion of a life sad passages beyond the ken of other mor tals have tarnished the pure lustre thai once surrounded my soul as with a halo, yet, if you will take a heart weary with the sorrows of the ages, dimmed by the darkling doubts with which an intimate knowledge of humanity clouds the spirit, take me to your tender breast and let me find shelter there from life's griefs and disappointments. What recom pense a heart blighted as mine has been can bestow I will strive to make to your angelio sympathy and goodness.' ' "Is ii not beautiful?" cries Dolly, in aa ecstacy. "J wonder what he means? I fin ppos some horrid woman threw him OVef rJe?" -casir-V 'I think it k elcdinglf impertinent, f;n3 1 hope toil will resent it' . "Resent it!" felmoSt shrieks Dolly, "Why,, it is a deciaratidr?''' "Get me my blotting-boot off ihal tabl;" commands Mrs. Dalton resolute ly. "Now," shsd; Jfcgintoing to write, "you will answer it ti wayy or I wash my hands of you, and to-ntijt9y h5 TfiJl have reduced you to abject misery again." . " She writes hurriedly 'cr 3 fewroinutes, and then, with heightened color, iieii the draft aloud: - . "PeAr .Mr. tiS&clest- I Vve received your naelirlcholy letter and ..am truly sorry for all you seem to hava .suereq,. But, for my part, I look upon the -iforid as a very pleasant place, and have made Tip my mind to enjoy myself as much as possible; so, as 1 could not console you, and you, with the ideas vou express, would make me miserable, I think you had much better look for somebody whose" temperament is more like your own. i suppose you mean me to under stand that yOu have been mueh fflotS ia love with" Some one else than you are with me, which, to say thtS least,- is not very flattering. No. I must have en trrl- iivided heart; or hone at all. Youi sincere friend. . D. 8. There is a desperate fight, between Mrs. Dalton and Dolly before the Jattei can be persuaded to. copy and forward what she considers a heartless and flip pant missive. In ths end Marion triumphs. Mr. Laseelles does ho' ap pear a! breakfast, and Dolly, though her soul quakes within laughs and talks to Dick. Later in the morning, when they r?9 playing lawn-tennis, Clement Laseelles, feeling much smaller than he has ever done in his life, seeks counsel from Mrs. Dalton. With an angelic smile she al ternately prick him with daggers and makes him gulp down bowls of poison; but 6he does him an excellent turn by taking a good deal of the nonsen63 oui of him. He confesses that he adores Dollv. How, O how, is he to win her ? Has lie the ghost of a chance? Mrs. Dalton, looking solemn, deolares her inability to reply to this. She hints at Dolly's youth and love of amusement. She hints, too, at Dick's unflagging good spirits and temper. And the up shot of it is ihat when Dick returns crestfalienj from his afternoon ride with Dolly, having spoken and received his answer, Clement Laseelles carries off the young lady to her boudoir on pre tence of wanting to be shown something, and, replacing the melancholy of Hamlet by the conquering airs of young Love lace, takes her in his arms, swears he has been a fool, and has never really loved any one but her sweet self, and that if she accepts him her life shall be cno round of pleasure Twenty minutes later, Dolly has passed on all his embraces and more to Marion. "How clever you are, darling!" she says admiringly. To which Mrs. Dalton replies, "Now you know how to manage him, make good use of your knowledge." Taper Fabric. The use of paper fabric for building purposes by the term paper being j meant broadly a flexible sheet made or vegetable or other fibre, which has been reduced to a pulp, and then pressed out and epread and dried is now advocated by some builders for the following rea sons: First, continuity of surface that is, it can be made in rolls of almost any width and length, is flexible, or by glue ing several layers together may be made stiff, and will stop the passages of air because there are no joints; second, it has no grain like wood and will not split; third, it is not affected by change of temperature, and thus it has an ad vantage over sheet metal as roofing ma terial; fourth, whereas, in its natural state it is affected by moisture, it may be rendered waterproof by saturating with asphalt, or by a variety of other methods; fifth, it is non-resonant and well fitted to prevent the passage of sound; 6ixth,it is a non-conductor of heat, and can also be made of incom bustible material, like asbestos, or ren dered fire-resisting by chemical treat ment. The combination of paper with other substances, and solidifying the mass by pressure, renders practicable the production of a material capable of replacing wood for many purposes; and not least among its characteristics of adaptability is the ease with which it may be made into sheets of any width and thickness, that will not warp or shrink from heat, cold or dampness. A Drummer Keeps IT arm.' Said a travelling man in the Palmer House yesterday. "I never order a fire in my room at a country hotel. I carry a warming apparatus along which is both convenient and not costly to my self. See i" And ho pulled out a pair of nippers and a gas-burner which would throw a flame at least seven inches wide. "It's this way," he continued. "I register and go to my room. The burner is, of course, plugged with cotton so that you can't get enough light to see the bed by. I yank it off with my nippers, screw on my own patent appliance, and then sit by the window and watch the city gas tank sink down towards the ground while my room gets warm." Chicago Herald. ' - The Wrong Girl. The St John Telegraph tells this story: A young man well known about town made an eventful call on a lady a few evenings ago, and it is said that he is not very likely to "call again" for some time to come. It appears that he was very well acquainted with the pretty servant girl who generally answers the door bell, though he would not have his friends know it for the world. On the evening in question he rang the bell, and then stepped behind the door that remains stationary, and waited. Pres ently a head appeared around the door, and the young man leaned forward and impressed a kiss upon the fair one's bps. A shriek followed. The young man thought he kissed the hired girl. But it was the hostess. Mr. Edward Atkinson says the two thing inost needed in those days is, first, for rich men to find out how poor men live, and, second, fcr poor men to find ont how rich men work. THE JoSfifVS BUDGET.
