'Don't like to contradict a lady," said Mr. Bunting. '"But I can't say I agree with you ; and these foreigners are generally impostors, too." Mrs. Hunter shook her head coquct-tlshlv. She was rather coquettish ami rather gushing for her age. "Ob, you gentlemen! you gentle men' she said;'I can't tee that yoa ever do Instice to each other." A And then she rang the hell aiid or dered, the servants to bring teaj and pressed batchelor Banting to stay to partake. of it. ' There was . rDjU(leaaJUQJLof' f.itrTtv . In the"liouse, "to play propriety, and allow her the privilege of having as many bachelors to tea as she choose, and Mr. Bunting forgot his jealousy, and was once more happy. He was, truth to tell, very much in love with the widow, who was his Junior by fifteen years.1 He liked ihe idea ofher living on the interest of her money, too. She was a splendid housekeeper and a line pianist. She was popular and good-looking. He intended to offer himself for her - acceptance as soon as he felt sure that she would not refuse him. But this dreadful Professor La Fon tilne, with black eyes as big as saucers, and lonz side-whiskers black also as rnny raven' wing, had the advantage of being the 'v i low's junior. This ODDort i ity to make a fool of herselHs so irr -i'tible to every widow. - It troubled h 'reams a good deal not that he thoug i him handsome. Oh, no! ,But still at fifty a man does not desire a rival, however may despise nim. "She did not ask hlm to stay, and she Aid ask me," Said. Mri Bunting, and iepafted; alter a moitdelightfui.even ng, during which the maiden aunt who was, at best, as deaf as jost) nored sweetly in her chair. -But, alas! on the very next evening his sky was overcast. ' Professor La Fointaine took the wid ow to tbe opera. He saw them enter the doors of the opera house, and, having followed and secured, a.fceat in a retired portion of thetiouse, also noticed that the Profes 'BOr kept his eyes fixed upon the lady's face in the most impressive manner during the whole of the performance, and that she now and then even return ed his glances. I 'It can't go pn'eaid Mr. Bunting to himself. can't allovr U,, She'd regret it ill her-life. I muft remon strate, with her. So womaiv likes a coward. Faint heart never woa fair lady : oat.' And that very evening Mr. Buntng trotted up to the widow's house, full of a deadly purpose, and with a set speech .learned off by heart. . - The speech he forgot as be crossed -the threshold. ' The purpose abided with him. v There were the uBual remarks about the weather. 1 ' " The usual chitchat followed, but the wldo saw that Mr. Bunting was not "arhts ease, " ' At last; with the sort of plunge that a timid bather makes into chilly water, bedashed Into the subject nearest his .hearU- . , - MfJeS a,. rascal, ma'am, I give you my "word."

" "Ma'am !" cried Mr. Bunting. 'Perhaps, however, I should take no notice of such conduct," said Mrs. Hunter. "Perhaps I should treat It with silent contempt." - "Oh, good gracious!" cried bachelor Bunting; "don't treat me with silent contempt. It's my affection for yon that urges me on.

"Farewell, false one," he said, feel ing for his hat without looking for it. "I leave you forever." He strode away, banging the door after him. 'The -widow cried and then laughed and then cried again. In fact, she had a genuine fit of what the maiden aunt called "stericks," and the chambermaid "highstrlkes," before she was brought to, and prevailed to take a glass of wine and something "hot and comforting in the edible line: After which the thortght of her fiance consoled her. r ' Days passed on. , ' .

The maiiUn aunt, who had no income of her own, curried favor by being al most always in a state of apparent coma. Tbe widow was in the seventh heaven of bliss, and all went merry as a marr riage bell until one evening, as the betrothed pair sat before the fire in the polished grate, there came a ring at the bell, and the girl who answered it soon looked into the parlor to announce the fact that a little girl in the hall would come in, "Oh. let her in." said Jlrs "lrui so fond" of The dear childreu la the neighborhood.

Cheese as Food. '!. vprv low nrice of good cheese and its production in excess of the de mand have led the manufacturers into a serious consideration of the methods by which the home consumption can be increased : and this, of course, brings up the question of the value of cheese as food. Is it true, as is claimed by a leading stock journal, that cheese con tains at least fifty per cent, more nutri ment In a given weight than beef. As the two retail at nearly the same price", this is an exceedingly interesting ques tion. Let us first look af; the matter from the point of production. It has " " It i-.ii-. rtnt c fattcnirir steer I think I am thej only person who oee , - e :.. rru a.. iiii-i h warpr anu a imitii tun can jv..ra j 11. auc ivu.cau v .,, same amount oi iooaior. ly" mid time, and that the product of gain in bref on the one hand and milk pn the other are of almost identical food value. In the light of such facts, does it seem reasonable that the cheese pro- in- like quantity of beef . are fully courit rbalaneed by the four pouiuls of ft wliicb,ibs. latter lepntains in excess of the former. Clieeae and beef ot this UirpoRtioh should, therefor,-be of about equal food vaue, If cqilally digestible : wiiich is not tne caie;! It Is "true that some kinds of cheese niike'a oftter shoeing than this, especlallj ik& that have an extra quantity ot cream incor porated; but .when w consider that a considerable part of cheese is not digest ed, as was prpyed by E.mith,'H.wMl not d to ffise the best cheese a greater .food yalUe tain beef.
