But the interest in the oaaa did not end there. "On tba same evening," writea Lord Brampton, "I waa dining at the oonntry bonae of a Mr. Hardoaatle, and near me aat an old inhabitant of the Tillage where the tragedy bad been eommitted.

BONNY LORRAINE, BY JAMES LINDSAY GORDON. Bonny Lorraine, haTe yon forgot The day we walked the morning lea ? I still keep the bine forget-me-knot That yon took from your hair and gave to me. Wonld yon like to walk those ways agaio, With me at your side in the morning time? Do yon ever think ol your youth's sweet prime, And your young boy-lcrer, Bonny Lorraine 7 Ah, welt I remember the time we stood By the glancing rirer when the day waa done, And the whispering trees in the dim old wood, Turned erimaoo and gold in the setting sun ; When your hoart and your lips and your eyes were fair To cling to me then as your life's one love. Do you remember it, Bonny Lorraine? 8urely your heart can never forget The night I told yon that last farewell ; Your long, soft lashes with tears were wet, And your anguish more than your lips could tell, And you kissed ma then, as I stood in the lain, And held me fast aa you hid me go With your desolate golden head bowed low I know you remember it, Bonny Lorraine. Across the street where the music swells, You glide thro' the throng in the shadowy dance ; In your ears the chime of your marriage bells ; In your heart the dream of the old romance. I see you glimmer across the pane, The jewels ablsia in your shining hair, And the form of another about you there ; But I do not envy him now, Loiraine. Let him bow down low at your royal feel, And siog lore's song if it gives him joy ; I sang it once and found it aweet, In the daya when you charmed me a foolish boy, But I ne'er shall awaken the old refraio, Its beautiful music ia almost bushed j My heart wu touohed but it wu not oruahed, And it loves you no longer, Bonny Lorraine. Danoe on while the music throbs sod beats, Drink memory to death in your wedding wine ; He knowa not your life, whose quick glsnce meets The false, sweet light in your tyes divine. I can look on yon now with oeter a pain On your proud, fair faoa and your aplendid eyes; And then, looking up to your star-lit akiea Thank God that I lost you, Bonny Lorraine.

For many years past woman has re joiced io a big waiat. She haa confess ed to twenty-four inches and if plump she has owned up to twenty-nine or thirty. She did not oare how bin. her waist was as long as she suoceeded in pulling down her belt in frost to give her the fashionable shape. But now the figure is changing back to the small waiat. She can reduoe her waist by eieroia- Id io the right way, pugilists, wrest lers and all highly developed atMetea with his entire family to Nasr Kddio'i have very small waists, they are full in bouse, the srms and in the chest I " 'We,' the stranger explained, run arms tor trie coming woman are trienaa ot tne man who gave you an absolute necessity.

THE WAT IT WAS BEBLKED BY AN OBIENTAL PHILOSOPHEB. "Hospitality is ao excellent thing'' said the stoty teller, but it is open to abuse. Let me tell you how the orien tal hospitality of Nat Eddin, a great man of the ea:t, waa abused maoy years ko. "From b diatsnt village a poor man came to Nar hddio and made him a present of a hare. Nasr Eddio waa de lighted with his gift, Tbe poor man on the strength ot it staved with bim a month. "A short lime after a stranger ci mi slowly uotil they are balaooed over your head. Lift tbem up and gradually let tbem swing over your bead and back of you until they touch the floor. This ia a sort ot inverted somersault, which is of the greatest benefit to the oulturist. Here are physical culture exeroisea to avoid. Do not lift heavy weights, They increase the muscles around the waist line and do a woman no good from any standpoint. Do not try to hang by your hands from a pole or from any object about your bead. This, too, strains tbe mus clea of the waist and belt line and is none too good for one's health. Do not trv to stand on your head, Thia may seen an unnecessary adoson ition, yet it ia a tact that a certain en thusiastic DhTsiosl-culture director had all hia pupils lined up in that manner, Tbe kind of food playa an important part in the reduction of tbe waist. "What ahall I eat?" inquires the woman who ia reducing. "And what shall I eat?" aaka the woman who wanta to make her waiat smaller, but who doesn't want to diet. Yon can eat anything and atill reduce your waist. But you must know how to select. The woman who site down to tbe family table and consumea several asses of water, as so msoy do, or who buries herselt in little ooeaos of tea, or who takea two or three cups of strong coffee, will never have a trim waist and wide, well-proportioned abouldera. Such promiscuous drinking and good physical development do not go together. And again the woman who placea freshly baked bread upon her table and who eata lavishly of it will not have a nice Genre. If the bread ia made of floe white flour and is raised with yeaat she mav be aura that it ia still in a state of fermentation when It ia taken from the oven. If vou nut vour ear to a large hot loaf of bread yen can hear it. The yeaat will continue to "work for twenty-four hours, duriog which time tbe bread should ha kept in a place where it will keep mo st and fresh. Then it ia ready to be eaten. It can be reheated and aerved aa fresh bread,as in deed it ia. NEW YEAR ITEM. "Demajor'ainyander, sayin' dat be seein' aoakea." "Yes; he got de whole circus, whilst we po' sinners is on de rsgged edge er de sideshow!" " 'friends of the mends or tbe man who gave you the hare,' was the reply. "Nasr Eddin looked grave. He did not invite these guests indoors. Hi served them on the lawn with cups of some clear fluid. Tastiog thia fluid, physical they made wry faces, for it waa nothing but warm water. What is this you offer us, oh, Nasr Eddio?' the strangers said reproachfully. "The boat replied: " 'Uh, that is tbe ssuce of the sauoe ef the hare.' " OABTOIIIA.
