If you aro a man who values a peace ful domestic life above all things; if you happen to possess a bright and companionable- young wife, with ideas of her own; if you are secretly immensely .proud of hep and her "parts, but fear-' ful lest "you encourage in her an arro Jganco of equality with you and your own, then beware of moments of sym pathy and keep a guard upon your tongue i in hours of confidence, lest they lead to the death of all future ; communion ; i lest, in short, peradventur they tempt you into collaboration with your wife. In the case Of Joneft its hfifrirmirio- was very insidious. Jones had a mag nificent idea for a plot It was modern, without being unspeakable never was there a happier conception. But it had a flaw. There was a hitch in the action which disturbed the flow. Jones stared wildly at the paper on which "he had jotted down "Outline of Plot" in his boldest hand. Staring did not seem to bring inspiration, and Jones forgot him self so far as to stamp upon the floor. His wife heard the unwonted sound. She was giving the. children their nurs ery tea at the time, and a little plaster fell off tho Cjailing into one of their bread and milk bowls. She went up stairs. . " What's the matter with the poor boy, then?" she inquired. "The nursery ceiling's coming down. And what has he done to his nice smooth hair?" "Oh, don't be an idiot 1" groaned Jones. "I've got the finest idea I ever had in my life, and now-j I'm simply stuck." " j ' ' His wife's- little face became grave and important at onco. She was a fair., pretty woman, with brown eyes and a little chin that stuck out "Tell me," said she coaxingly, set tling on the arm of his big leather chair. Jones saw no warning shadow of com ing collaboration. "I'll just give you an idea of my plot," ho said, and proceeded to do bo. The "idea" took three-quarters of an hour to giva His wife listened, at first with a preoccupied air. She could not forget that an open jam pot stood on the nursery table at baby 's elbow. Soon, however, tho full beauty of the thing burst upon her. She got down from the arm of Jones' chair and embraced him with fervor. '. "Talk of Stevenson indeed, " she said compassionately, "or your Merediths and Hardys and people !" "Come, cornel" said Jones. Ho tried to tell her dryly "not to bo an idiot, " but the words would not come as easily as usual After all, real appreciative ness is a rare gift "Write it straight away off, dear," she begged. "Write it, and get the mon ey for it." - This brought the fatal hitch back upon Jones' consciousness in its full bit--terness. He laid the case before his wife. She at once suggested th'e only possible way out of the difficulty. "That would have occurred to me if I'd thought a minute longer," Baid Jones. "Course it would, the clever boy!" said his wife soothingly, and sho began to expand her plot Jones listened pa tiently,, sometimes vouchsafing encour agement, and she looked so pretty, so flushed and eager over it, that he was . touched. In a demented moment he ut tered the words that risked the happi ness of two lives. "Why shouldn't we write it togeth er?" he said. '. . Onco said, there was noiinsaying it Without a word his wife arose and went straight to the nearest stationer's. There t je bought ten reams of manuscript pa per and 2 shillings' worth of pens. All the rest of the day she was remarkably silent Jones addressed her at tho din ner table with a remark that had never yet failed to pleasa "I always like you in that dress, " he said. "It's a pretty idea, having those sleeves one can see the arms through. It's called net, or tulle, or something, isn't it?" "One moment, please, dear, " an swered his wife, and her lips moved mutely, in visible composition. Then Jones remarked that her hair was arranged with less frivolity than usual. It showed more of her forehead, which gave an intellectual look. This was aided by a somewhat aggressive ink stain on one of her fingers. Jones felt much as he did toward his baby boy when that infant played at "being grown up and doin like dadda. " Ho patted his wife's cheek. She received the advance with a touch of dignity. vJones began to feel a trifle irritated, add he scraped his foot under the table. His wife started a little elaborately, and then resumed the silent movement of her lips. Next day, when he came back from his office, he found the plaster .knocked out of the wall in three places. Tram pling feet were heard in his own sacred study, and two finely developed young men from Shaplemann's jostled him in his agitated progress up the stairs. He burst into his sanctum, to find it filled by a writing table. Near the abomina tion stood hia wife, regarding it with brown eyes full of pensive pride. "What in the world is this thing do ing here?" gasped Jones. . "Why, you couldn't write anything, decent without a writing table and how can you expect me to?" she inquired. Her air Was so important, yet withal so guilty, that Jones subdued his indigna-' tion and tried to laugh. When they had both left tho room, he went back and permitted himself the satisfaction of kicking tho thing gently in several places. - . ; ; Tho, evening saw them both estab lished at their desks. The horrid impos sibility of it all struck upon Jones only too soon. He had written the opening chapter in his best manner, and the time camo when ho wanted to tead it out To give her her due, his wife lis tened eagerly, and did him full justice when ho ceased. , "And now listen to mine, " she said blitholy. Jones felt it to txriiis own act and deed, and he resigned mmsou. aj iuk Her chappter was really not badly writ ten I - Her style was evidently modeled on his own. Jones put his finger tips to gether and smiled hopefully. But when it came to her hero, alas I not only had be "a comb at the back of his head,' as Stevenson puts it, but he was altogether impossible. How to wipe him tenderly out of the chapter without breaking of hearts? Jones fidgeted distressfully. "That's not quite the sort of thing a man would say, dear.'i he suggested mildly. . . a . "Oh, isn't it!" she answered, with derision. "As it happens, a man did say it those very words. i-9 J"" iuts to a woman when he's alone with her?' ' "Heaven, forbid !' said Jones., "And who said Jt to you,:' may I ask?" I i -i i 5 "I didn't say it was said to me," she replied, with some haste. "How do you like this onding? I . think it's rather neat, don't you? 'Aud'whca they had both left the conservatory there was something frail and pink lying on the marble floor. It was a moss rose bud. ' I rather admire that sort of ending. " i "Where is the point?" inquired Jones. ; ' ' Oh, well, if you want points to ev ery single sentence" l "Well, but don't you see that unless you mean something by it there'r no sense at all in the thing? It's simply Family Herald 'business. I should have thought you'd have seen that " " It's a matter erf taste, and-1 differ from you, " said his wife very coldly, "and if wo are to pick holes in each other's wtjrfcTjallpw me to tell: you that no lady would have behaved as your heroine did in that hansom I" "Why, that actually hap" began Jones unwarily. i "I knew it !" cried his wife, overturn ing the ink bottle. "It was that day you saw Kitty Cameron home from the theater. I thought so at the time ! She shall never enter my house again. " -- Jones was I enraged, but saw a possi ble "score." . . y "It was on the same day, "he said slowly, with a painstaking smile, "as that on which you permitted yourself to bo addressed by a man, not your hus band, in the way you so tastefully chose toread me." There was a silence. They glared at one another. Then Jones' wife got up and- left the room with a queenly step, closing the door behind her with osten tatious gentleness. . j Jones heard no more about collaborat ing for some time, but next day the bill came , in for the writing- table 7 guineas. He bargained with Shaplemann, who consented to take it back for 4, and the incident closed. . - : Some months later Jonos' book actu ally appeared, and his wifo received nu merous letters congratulating her on the authorship of it , "What in the world do they mean?" ho demanded. ' "Why, dear," said she, a little shame facedly, "I'm afraid I told most of them about thatjtime when you and I" "Welt when wo what?" "Collaborated, dearest Don't you re member?" New Budget. Tardy Praise For Boswell. The London Standard showed a be coming respect for letters by devoting a "leader" the other day to the memory of Boswell, whose death took place a century ago. It makes perhaps more of a tragedy of his end than the facts quite justify, but it does recognize his place in literature, which after all is the es sential His follies were not greater than Goldsmith's, and yet the world by a silly trick went on sniffing at "Boz zy" for generations. That nonsense is happily now about dead. We are begin .ning to speak fittingly of one of the greatest writers in literature. Boswell is to all other biographers what Shake speare is to other poets. Lockh art's "Life of Scott" is admirable, but it has only to bo compared to the "Life of Johnson" to show Boswell 's superiority. Is it not time that the great biographer had his own life worthily written? St James Gazette. The Two Turkeys. Mr. Lanigan's fable of "The Two Turkeys" has a fine cynical flavor that prodigal sons will relish : "An honest farmer once led his two turkeys into his granary and told them to eat, drink and be merry. One of these turkeys was wise and one foolish. The foolish bird at once indulged excessively in the pleasures of tho stable, unsuspicious of the future, but the wiser fowl, in order that he might not be fattened and slaughtered, fasted continually, mortified his flesh and devoted himself to gloomy reflec tions upon the brevity of life.' When Thanksgiving approached, the honest farmer killed both turkeys, and by plac ing a rock in the interior of the prudent turkey made him weigh more than his plumper brother.

HE MET HIS MATCH. Expert Testimony Comes High, tons Wo Have to Have It. , The scene was the private laboratory of the greatest chemical analyst known to science, J. Bigleg Bighead, M. D. , P. B. S. , P. D. Q. , etc. There was a timid rap on the door, and a dark fea tured man entered, saluting with obse-: quious grace and handing the great ex pert a cardt on which was the firm name of "Baggem & Fleecem, Private Detectives." The celebrated toxicologist glanced at the card and motioned the visitor to a seat. "Happy to make your acquaint ance, sir. What can I do for you?" The swarthy browed visitor glanced around to make sure that they were alone, then drew forth from the folds of his cloak a small bottle containing some mysterious fluid. " Sir, ' ' he began in undertones, ' this bottle contains part of the contents of a man's stomach. The deceased died two days ago under tho most suspicious cir cumstances, after having dined with a very beautiful woman. I want expert sworn testimony an ironclad, all wool, yard wide, no rebate, expert analysis.

Are you employed in the interest of the poisoner or the poisonee?" But the detective had finished the last line of the scale of prices, and his hair Btood on end. Slowly he arose, looked at his watch, saw that he had been there 80 seconds, drew forth a roll and counted out, $100, pressing it" into the hand of the great expert. Then, with a look of envy and admiration, he fled just in time to save another hundred. San Francisco Argonaut. Heathen and Heathen.

The "Death Trap" Known to Indians For Hundreds of Tears 'and Recently Dis covered .by White Men The Bedlclne i Man With a Strangely Beautiful Face; ' One of tho most recently discovered in explicable phenomena is an immense elec trical stono which crops out above ground in an siimost inaccessible mountain pass some 60 or 60 miles north of TheNeedlos, in Arizona. I In a multitudo of witnesses thcro is safe ty, and it appears that the natives were for years acquainted with the stbno and Its peculiar properties," long before its discovery- by a party of hunters recently. Among - the Indians tho stone goes by the name , of tho "death trap," and the- peak whereon it is located is called Death Trap mountain. - They say that; their fathers and grandfathers beforo them knew of the stone, and it is only an old and expe rienced guide who will venture to take a party in the neighborhood of it, lest by some unlucky chance a too daring hunter will lose his life by suddenly coming upon it in an unguarded moment. ; The stone itself i described as being a rough, jagged outcropping, bursting up through the shale of its surroundings, reaching up the mountain side to the height of about seven feet, when a sharp projection shelves over again, making a throe sided tunnel perhaps nine foot long and five feet wido. Ordinarily the rock is of a blue metallic luster and shows traces of volcanic action, being seamed and rib bed as if by molted lava. In the heat of tho day, when the sun shines squarely upon it, the stono assumes a faded, polo blue hue, at which times the Indians de clare it to be perfectly harmless. As the sun leaves the gorge, however, the stone begins gradually to deepen in color, and when night comos and there is no moon it glows with all tho brilliancy of a molten mass. This lumination may bo distinctly Seen for a great distance when there are no intervening mountains to obstruot the view. . ; Now, as to the peculiar death giving power of tho etone. ,It is said that noth ing great or small can set foot upon it and live. So powerful are the volts which it gives out at even the slightest contact that it is impossible for even the largest animals to withstand their strength. Recently tho party of hunters referred to ventured without a guide into some of the more dangerous mountain passes in the up country, and by chance found their way into a narrow gorge, having come in hot pursuit after a little fleet limbed moun tain goat which they managed to start from tho rocks below. Suddenly,, while they were all some 70 or 80 feet away, they were astonished beyond measure to see tho goat fall dead in his tracks, although not a shot had been fired. They were making ready to climb up the ledge and secure the little creature, when an old In dian high up on the cliff bohind called to them to stop. So frantic was his manner and so persistent his admonitions that they waited till he 6cramblod down to them, and then for the first time camo to light the story of tho electrical wonder. - The hunters expressed tho deepest grati tude to the old Indian for saving their lives, but -regretted no little tho loss of tho goat, whoso species is almost extinct now, whereupon the old man unwound a riata from his waist and flung it up un der tho rocks. His aim was unerring, and presently tho goat was dragged down into a place of safety, whence the hunters re moved him. The sun was almost down and hod quite loft tho gorge, so at the request of tho In dian tho hunters accompanied him to his mountain perched cabin, and from there beheld tho lighting up of tho stono when tho moon was gono. As they all sat about tho fire watching tho phenomenon their old host told them many marvelous sto ries of the wouder, among others tho leg end of its discovery by tho tribe hundreds of years ago. The legend runs about ns follows: . j Once upon a time thcro came into tho midst of the tribe asking food and shelter a strangor with a marvelously boautiful face. His body was little and mean and puny, and his back was humped, but his face was fair beyond all description and strangely boautiful. His eyes were largo and luminous, like twin stars, and, al though ho secmod to know nothing of herbs or their properties, ho possessed tho marvelous faculty of healing tho sick by laying his hands upon them or even by looking fixedly at them wit h his great eyes. Even dumb animals would flock around him if he chose to have them do so, and tho chief held him in such reverence that by and by ho adopted the stranger in the Iribo and made him a medicine man. Many years passed, during which the stranger still lingered, and in the mean time the chief's son had grown toman- hood, and it became time for him to take a wife'. Tho comoliest maiden of tho tribe was selected as his bride, and preparations wero made for tho nuptials. When the wedding day arrived, however, the maiden was missing, and an old woman declared that the medicine man had spirited her away. A diligent search failed to disclose her whereabouts.' and tho chief reluctant ly consented to believe the friend of bis adoption guilty. A company of 12 of tho bravest warriors were ordered to drivo the medicine man out of tho tribe, for no ono would consent to see him killed outright, so groat was the love of tho people for him. Early in the morning tho warriors sot out to chase him beyond tho mountains, tho medicine man running swiftly on be fore so that they could just 6carcoly-keep him in sight. Finally it became evident that ho was loading them on after him in stead of fleeing before them, and at last, though the chief sent messengers to order tho men to return, it was impossible to get them to heed tho command. On and on they followed, climbing tho mountain side and looking neither to tho right nor to the left, but keeping their eyes fixed despcrato ly upon the medicine man beforo them. Tho chief '8 messengers followed as close as they dared, and at last beheld with con sternation the warriors fall one by one dead in then tracks between tho parted lips of a great blue stone. Thus Was the death trap discovered many hundreds of years ago, and tho In dians believe it to have been set by the medicine man to ward off all pursuit aft er him and the stolen brido of the chief's son.

The ancients did not know anything about the strawberry. - It was not culti vated until tho fifteenth contury and per haps first in England. Shakespeare was fond of it,, as he was of all good things. So much is to be inferred from what he makes Closter say to tho bishop of Ely in the third scene of tho third act of "Richard HI:" - " My lord of Ely, when I was last in Holboru I saw good, strawberries in your garden thore. I do beseech you to send for some of them." - And the bishop, undoubtedly pleased at the compliment to his garden, replied: "Marry, and I will, my lord, with all my heart," In "Henry V" thero is an interesting suggestion us to how they wero cultivated in tho early day, ns ho makes tho bishop say: "The strawberry grows underneath the nettlo, and wholesome berries thrive and ripen best neighbored by fruit of baser quality." Old Izaak Walton, most gonial of spirits, author of tho "Complete Angler; or, The Contemplative Man's Recreation," who, when ho retired from business with a com petency, "lived mostly in tho families of eminent clergymen of England, of whom he was much beloved" ho, too, was fond of tho glorious, berry, for did he not pre serve tho saying of Dr. Boteler that "doubtless God could have made abetter berry, but doubtless God never did?"
