Visitors to the lighthouse often wondered how old Capt. Dade ever came to be the father of such a dainty little creature. The keep er'a brown, weather-beaten visage, though picturesque after its fash ion, bore no resemblance to Joyce's sweet face, for the lines obout the month and deep-set eyes gave to Dade's rugged features an expres sion of harsh, almost cruel, strength. Reserved and taciturn. onlr the most meagre outline of his past was known. A few years before, having obtained the posi tion of lighthouse keeper, Dade 1 I daughter. 1 I The stretch of blue water which I I surrounded the island on which i I the hehthouse stood, divided it from the old city, which lay hidden from view by the high sand-dunes. Several times a day a small, dingily painted steam launch bore its cabin -load of hot, tired, but curious sightseers, to inspect and ascend the lighthouse. But before reaching its precincts, a short ride across a swampy and impassable portion of the island was necessary. A rude car, mounted on wooden rails, had therefore been provided to take the passengers across. Xms nruxutive vehicle- was drawn by an ancient mule, whose driver was an olive skinned, dark-eyed Creole lad. Juan was a waif, a stray, with out relatives or tnenas. u nance had given him his present position, wmcn ne nad Deen allowed to re tain. As a boy his bright eyes and merry laugh, which showed the white, even teeth, earned him many an extra tip, and even now, a tall strippling, whose lip was fringed with down, Juan seemed as careless and inconsequent as ever. It was seldom that old Dade's daughter Jeft te island, except on Sunday mornings, when, unaccom panied by her father, she went over to the city for church. Seated in one corner of the empty car, her modest eyes demurely down cast. Joyce's beauty first impressed the handsome young savage. No words were needed gradu ally, almost imperceptibly, a silent understanding sprang up in each heart. Juan, in spite of his natural keenness, was densely, savagely ignorant; tnough his slendei brown fingers were supple enough when invoking music from a bat tered old banjo, they could scarcely write his own name. On the other hand, while Joyce's lonely life made her eagerly crave and respond to Juan's mute worship, still she had idealized his whole personality. Perhaps she was vaguely aware of this, and lwi&hed to retain her illusion. Meanwhile time passed on, and old Captain Dade saw, guessed, nothing. To him Juan seemed only one type of a race he de spised; the easy, gracious courtesy of the Creole appeared cringing and impertinent. As much as possible ne avoided meeting Juan, which was easily accom polished , aA he seldom used the car. One afternoon, however, Capt. Dade decided he would have to go over to the city. The day was very warm, and as Dade stepped into the car, nodding curtly m answer to Juan's bright smile, he was irrit ably conscious of his own florid discomfort contrasted with this young savage's cool condition. "Ifs the rascal's confounded laziness," he muttered to himself. "He does everything but work." Finally, with . a sigh of relief, Juan watched him step into the steam .launch. An hour or so later, when, hav ing transacted his business, Dade prepared to return home, he was accosted by a certain Sanchez, a Spaniard, the proprietor of a second-class hoteL "Hallo, captain," began the latter, familiarly, though he saw the other man wished to avoid him. "VVe seldom see you in the city; come in and have something to drink." "No, I must get back to the lighthouse," Dade returned curtly, moving away. But Sanchez was not to be repulsed so easily. "Wait. I will walk with you tc the wharf. Have you heard the Btory about ?' "It is useless to question mo of other men's business, I meddle in no one's affairs," Dade inter rupted. Sanchez's thick lips parted in a smile. "Unfortunately, this is amattei that concerns you. Last Sunday some friends of mine went over t your lighthouse. In the cir winch awaited them at the landing a charming young girl was seated. My friends observed that tin driver, a handsome follow, by tL" way, never took his eyes from hi : face, and after she had left, uneot them indulged in some latighinu iest, or teasing allusion. Instantly, like a wild beast, the driver flew at nis trrroat. nearly str.iaiin -him. My friend was naturally annoyed, and vvIkjii he ascertained that the girl was your daughter, I promised I would warn you." With a certain gloating satisfac tion, Sanchez, as he finished hia speech, watched the old keeper's face. It was worthy a close study. Grown lividly pale, even through its bronzed darkness, the sunken eyes gleamed bright with wrath. Without a word, he pushed his companion aside, and hurried down to the wharf. The steam launch was busy bringing its last load of sightseers from the light house; so, niring a sailboat, Dade sprang in. Under the influence of a stiff breeze the boat flashed' ..lily re. ten-: its ownei one passen- Juan. 1. day was i the bottom smoked ci; se real work for tli r, had fallen asleep mi of the car, a half rare t to- between his nerveless fingers, tierce, suppressed nil a certain raue, I ade stud- ied the handsome face. Like a young Apollo, Juan lay, one sin ewy arm, whose tine mixlelling the attitude exposed, throwu above his head. Clear cut as a cameo, the delicate features, the smooth oval of the cheeks, the silky lustre of the hair, defied criticism. Awakened by Dade's rough touch, Juan sprang up, eagerly apologizing for his laziness. But his explanation was suddenly cut short by the harsh menace of the old man's glance. With a smoth ered oath, the latter struck his heavy stick agains.t the boards of the car. "We are wasting time here, go on. " Capt. Dade, his thin lips com pressed, sat silent in one corner of the car. Never had the ride ap peared so endless; with fierce im patince he longed for its termina tion. As the car stopjKxl, springing out with the agility of a young man, Dado walked over to the light house, opening the door which led into the little room below the winding stairs. Joyce sat reading near the one small window. As her father entered she rose a slen der, picturesque figure, in her blue homespun gown. " Joyce," old Dade began and noting his dark frown she knew at once he was very angry. " They say that you love and are loved by that miserable Creole who drives the car a creature whom I never even regarded as a man, much less a man you could care for. Joyce," his voice rang out, " tell me I have been deceived with some vile lie." For a moment father and daugh ter faced each other, Dade's face darkening as he read his answer in the girl's expression. Stepping slowly to the door, like a man grown suddenly old, he went out once more. Joyce waited throughout the night for her father to return. When dawn broke forth she could bear her vigil no longer. Then wild-eyed, pale, looking like a ghost of her former self, the girl left the lighthouse. Guided by intuition she walked swiftly down toward the water lving lustreless and cold beneath a low ering sky. "Father, father, "she cried, the name cutting the etill air like a knife. For a moment all was silent, then a cry answered her, and old Dade's ghastly lace peered above the dune's edge. A few swift steps and Joyce was beside him, and alas, beside the body of her lover. Half hidden beneath the rank sea grasses, Juan lav as he had fallen at Dade's feet, the old man stood leaning on his heavy stick, his vacant gaze bent on the dead face. As Joyce grasped his arm, ho lifted his dull eyes to hers. " One blow," he muttered, "only one, yet now still he lies. His wild, questioning look met Joyce's glance of stunned horror, "We quarrelled," he continued in the same fashion; "and he dared to say he loved you; then I struck him with my stick and he fell without a word ; one 1 fancied he moaned, Joyce '' his remorse ful despair stirred even her numbed senses " is he dead?" With a shudder she shook off her father's grasp, shrinking from his touch. Into the sullen heavens streaks of ruddy light crept, disturbing the dusky chaos. One shaft of crimson fire fell across the dune, E laying about Dade's brow and athing the rigid figure of Juan in its gh;istly radiance. With a sud den, bitter cry, Joyce fell on her knees beside the dead man. "Juan! Juan!" she whispered. Alas! only that other hoarse voice answered her. Presently she rose, pointing with a strange loot, towards the sky, "See! the heavens, alight with blooa, denounce us. Stricken with a fresh and terri ble remorse. Dade watched his daughter. The blue eyes, fixed in a confused, mindless state, gazed vacantly pajt him. " There is no other way of escajx. father, corao." Vv ithont .-gain noticing the dead, and with that unseeing expression still on her pale face, Joyc? moved down toward the water, and, weeping like a child, the old light house keeper followed. Florence Clarke in X. Y. Home Journal. How the Arab Courts. An Arab loves as none but an Arab can love, but he is also mightly excitable and easily won. An Arab sees a girl bearing water or brushwood and in a moment. almost at u glance, is as madly in love as if he had passed years of courtship. He thinks of nothiner else, cares and dreams of nothing else, but the erirl he loves: arid not infrequently, if he is disao- pointed in his affection, he pines and dies. In order to commence his suit he sends for a member of the girl's tribe who has access to the harem, and first insuring his secrecy by a solemn oath, confesses his love and entreats his confidant to ar range an interview. The confidant goes to the girl, gives her a flower or a blade of grass, and says: "Swear by him who made this flower and us also that you will not reveal to any one that which I am atout to un fold to you." If the girl will not accept the propositi she will not take the oath, but nevertheless keeps the matter tH?rfectly secret from all. If she L- favorably dis posed to the match she answers, "1 swear i.y him who made the dower you hold and us," and the place and tune of meeting are settled. These oaths are never broken, and it is not long before the ardent lover becomes the happy husband. Artificial Cem3.

The Courtesy Women Expect. The Latest Beauty Device- How the Arabs Do Their Courting. "There are two occasions upon which I never will recognize a gentleman, not even my husband, said a well-known society woman the other day. "If he is sitting on a street corner to have his shoes blacked he miurht bow at me till the crack of doom, but 1 would not recognize him. Or if he was coming out of a saloon." "Did you ever have a mm to greet you in the street without lifting his hat?" asked a friend. "Once or twice, but I never recognized that individual again. One of the best known clergymen in New Orleans makes a habit of not raising his hat to some ladies he knows. He would not feel flattered if he could hear the com ments that are made on his boorish manners." ferhape he lorgets, said a man who was ready to defend his sex. "That is no excuse. I would not expect an armless man to lift his hat to one iin the street, but nothing less could excuse him. A gentleman has no business to for get at least the appearance of good breeding. A woman feels a man has treated her with almost famil iar contempt who does not lift his hat when speaking to her, and if she has any spunk at all she will never bow to him again.' Engaged Couples In France. After a girl has passed her eighteenth birthday she is thought to be une. demoiselle a marier, but it is considered bad taste for the parents themselves to make any effort to achieve a daughter's marriage. Young men, except in the country, where far greater liberty is allowed, are seldom asked to visit a family where there are grown up daughters and, un less under rare circumstances, are never aeked to come to lunch or dinner. On no account would a French mother allow her daughter to speak to a man of known bad character or obviously unfit to beT come her husband. Marriage is an ever present possibility in France where young people are concerned, and. as may be easily imagined, this has both its advan tages and disadvantages. None of these rules apply to near rela tions. Abroad families see a great deal of one another and cousins hardly ever develop into husbands, probably because they are allowed to see so much of their young cousins. The Latest Beauty Device. The Patent Office the other day granted a patent on a device worthy of the ancient Greeks. It is a system of finger tapering and joint-reducing bands. The idea is to make thimble shaped bands of thin aluminum in sets of various siaes to fit the fingers and thumbs, and, by wear ing them at night, gradually pro duce the slender and tapering digits so much admired by the fashionable half of the world. The aluminum bands are pro vided with rings, which are crowd ed down on the outside, so as to compress the fingers and drive the blood back to any desired state of diminutiveness. The letters patent do not state whether the use of the new device is attended with pain or not. It is said these bands have been thoroughly tested by several of the best known ladies of fashion in Washington and New York, and they speak of them in the highest terms of praise. The leading merchant in cotatnetics and toilot articles in Chicago is form ing a stock company to buy the patent and become the finger taperer at the World's Fair. The patentee says his idea will go liko wild tire, as have so many other inventions to produce beauty, and iie thinks his patent is worth at least SoO.OOO. The lbos on the- Niger.

Vn i la I n I i ltI ia in . the distinguished lawyer and statesman, who accidentally killed himself in the court r 1 1 i at Leba non, Ohio, while deiiiwiist ra 1 i n g to the jury, in defense of his client who was on trial for murder, that the victim might have killed him self while drawing his own revol ver from his pocket. Jim ll.ni digham fought with t !:(.,.;. I -erate army, and on account of his many daring deeds often found himself in close quarters. He re lated this exneiieiice: "While out on a foragm expe- dition one night company with were suddenly near . ash ville ill three others, we surprised by a party of blue coat scouts and taken prisoners. e were turned over to the care of eight soldiers, who started with us for the Union line. Why they didn't take our guns from us I don't know, unless it was that they were too weak from hunger to carry them. Tho were pleasan' and talkative fel lows, ami appeared to be sorry we had not escaped. "Wo had not gone far before I spied a good sized 'razor-backed' shoat in a barnyard not far from the road and suggested to the guards that, with their jht mission, I would supply the neces sary pork for a meal, which we were all sorely in need of. "Among the guards was a long legged, dreamy sort of a chap, and he was the only one who op posed the scheme, but lie finally camo over to the majority, and I went after the jxrker. "The understanding was that I was not to tire my gun unless it became absolutely necessary to prevent the prosjx?ctive meal from escaping, but to use my bayonet. "Well, I chased that darned pig around the barn at least twenty times, and had perforated the sides of the barn like a soi ve in my ineffectual Jabs at him with my bayonet. Just as I had suceee led in spearing my prize, the sound of horses hoofs on the pike was heard in the distanco anil in a few minutes the Union advance guard, the one that had effected our cap ture, came in sight at full speed evidently fleeing from the enemy. It occurred to me in a minute that if our boys were close on the heels of the Yanks that if I could keep my captors at bay for a few min utes I would be safe, and so into the barn I jumped and was soon in the hay, mow peering through a knot hole at my sur prised and bewildered captors. Just then the advance guard came up at break-neck speed, halted suddenly, and after the officer had been advised of my flight, a volley was fired at the barn. The other Prisoners were hastily mounted on orses and the flight resumed. "I chuckled at my escape as the Yanks left, and crawled to an open window and peered up the road to ascertain how close our boys wero in pursuit of the fleeing Northerners. Just as I poked my head out, whizz! wont a bullet close to my ear, and looking into the road, darned if there wasn't that long-legged chap, standing alone, reloading for another shot. Well, that fellow and myself ex changed shots for several minutes, until our boys came up and cap tured him. If ever 1 took deliber ate aim at a. man in my life and tried to kill him, I did at that long legged individual. "I was returned to the camp with our prisoner, and you viay bet that that porker came along. The same night I let one or two of the boys into the secret of my good fortune and at my invitation they camo to my tent and wo started in to dress the pig prepara tory to cooking it. "Strict orders had against foraging and, ly, we guarded our been issued very closely. "Just as wo had the pig ready for the fire, an orderly appeared and summmoncd me to the presence of our Colonel. That officer gave me to understand that he knew all about the pig and, after a sharp reprimand, ordered me to return, remarking that he would decide later as to my punishment. "The following day. Sunday, the camp was full of visitors, many among them being ladies. Shortly before noon I was again summoned to the Colonel's quar ters and on my arrival thore two soldiers were ordered to take the hind quarters of the pig. which I saw at once had been brought to the Colonel's tent and suspend it around my neck by a cord. "This being done, I was walked to the guard line, where the visi tors entered and was compelled to remain there with the pig around my neck for three hours. "I have never considered my self a masher, gentlemen, but 1 w venture that more pretty worn i smiled on me that day than pr .11 ably any ot you have been favored with. "Well, to add insult to in jury, along came that long-legged chap, in charge of two soldiers. He w.-.s being transferred to an ot her guard house. Ashe passed me he smiled, and remarked that if 1 h..d not s. effectively dodged bis bullets 1 would not now be suffering such humiliation."

Why Women Aren't Funny A writer in tho open-letter de partment of the current Century asks why in literature thero are no lady humorists. He then goes on to answer his question by explain ing that from childhood man finds tho sawdust dropping out of every thing, ami soon discovers the worthlossness of much that passes for valuable. Therefore he learns to smile and to say: " Is it not , absurd ?" instead of allowing his : passion for something to adore i override his growing dosiro for truth. But, on the other hand, a woman's idols are so much a part . of her life that when they are j broken she cannot snap her fingers J nor seek mirth as an avenue of os i cape. Women may possibly grow satirical, but satire is only a form i of humor. " When life ceases to ; be in some way holy, or at any ' rate ideal, then woman's creative I faculty ceases," says the writer. "She ends where man's talent as a humorist begind. " (Quieting A Mob. The world will never know how much of the boldness of the press has been inspired by the editorial 'we." It is too common an experience in all the relations ol hie that men begin to "back out" when they are asked to fortify nu assertion with a Hignatare, or to "stand up and be counted.'' Even revolutionists do not always have the courage of heroes. Au amusing story of a collapse is told by the an'hor of "Les Memoires de Pans " On the evening of August 7, 1SS4, there was a meeting of disaffected persons to discuss the action of the French legislature, then in session. The meeting became more and more uoisy. After some compar ativelj temperate speeches by the ex deputies Maret and Laisant, the anarchists took the lloer, and one of them proposed that those present should go in a body to Versailles, invade the hall of Parliament, and turn out the Opportunistes, who, according to the speaker, were nothing but Orleanists in disguise. Then Lisbonne, leaning on the stick which he was obliged to use, one of his legs having been nearly paralyzed by a wound received in battle, mounted the platform and cried, "Citizens, you wish to go to Versailles!" "Yets! ve!" they shouted, fiercely. "Very well! I am ready to go. You know me. and where I live. I i am Lisbonne. You know mv record. ; I am not content to talk, 1 act also. ; In May there was in Paris two i hundred thousand persons who shouted 'Vive la Commune;' only ten thousand of these did any fighting. It must not be like that now !"' "Nc! no!" roared the mob. "Good!" went on Lisbonne; "here ue nine hundred of yon who cry, 'We will go to Versailles!' Do you mean it?" "Yes, to Versailles!" thundered the anarchists. "We go soon then. But you can understand, since yon all know me, that I wish to know you also. 1 will take down your names and addresses. Will all those who will go with me to-morrow morning to Versailles come to this side of the hall! Come, citizens, right file, righi !" lbere was a quiet movement, a d neveral citizens placed them selves on the side of the hall named ti t he oratar. Lisbanne counted them. There fceie nine etn! With an eloqueDt gesture lie taid: "I salute you, heroetd I admiie you, and in the name of our great cause I thank j on; but you perceive that we twenty are not enoogh to oiear the hall of Parliament." Then turning to the others, he said: "Get out, chattererf.! I believe you will keep still for a while. Go home to your wives. Since there is nothing to be done, I am going on to the cafe. You can find me there, if you are not content,'' and he limped away. There were murmurs of indigna tion among the crowd, but no one mentioned Versailles again.
