?++++*-H-4<++<"!->++++++4++++ fSOOPBY ! t *?" I By Guy de Maupassant 4 T ? ??It*???????? ++ ??+?;- v The two friends had finished their 'dinner. From the windows of the , eai'e they overlooked the boulevard,; which at this hour was crowded witli people. One of them, Henri Simon, said to his companion, with a profound sigh: "I feel that I am growin old, my friend. On such a night as tlii in days gone by 1 was keenly alive to the pleasures of existence. To- | night 1 have nothing but regrets. Life is short at best." lie was a man about forty-five | veurs old, a little stout and quite laid. 1 The other, Vierre Carnier, not his j senior in appearance by any means, but more slender and vivacious, re plied: "I, my friend, have grown old without noticing it. I was always gay and jolly, \igorous and all that. For when one looks at himself in the glass every day in the year the ravages of age are not apparent. They are slow and regular and work such gradual changes that the tran sition is not noticeable. We can ?hardly perceive it. To see it plain ly one should not look into a mir ror for six months at least, and then ?ah, what a shock! "And the women, old fellow? how I pity them! All their happi ness, their power, their life, is in their beauty, and that lasts but ten years at best. "As for myself, I grew old with out suspecting it. I thought myself still a youth when I was near fifty years of age. Free from infirmities of any kind, I was going my way, happy and content. But the revela tion of my decline came upon me in such a simple yet startling manner that I felt the effects of the shock six months afterward. Then I ac cepted my fate gracefully. "I have often been in love, like all men, but once in my life I was quite hard hit. I met her at the seashore, Etretat, about twelve years ago, not long after the war. iThere is nothing more delightful than that beach in early morning at the bathing hour. It is not very ex tensive, is curved like a horseshoe and encircled by tall, white cliffs, pierced with singular holes called 'the Gates.' One of these cliffs is enormous and stretches its gigantic length to the water's edge. The other is round and flat. The wom en swarm over this narrow strip, with its pebbled walks, and trans form it into a brilliant garden of summer toilets within walls of rock. The sun shines full upon the coast, over parasols of every imaginable color and over the sea of topaz blue. It ' ? a jolly picture, enchanting to the eye. Close by the water's edge the people lounge in the sand, watching the bathers as they come tripping down in their flannel bath robes, which they discard with a pretty movement as soon as the white fringed waves play around their feet. Then they run in with 6wift little steps, while the water sends thrills of a delicious chill through their veins. "Few women are made to endure the crucible test of the bath. Their figures stand revealed from ankle to throat. As they emerge from the embrace of the briny waters ei ther their shortcomings are made plain to the eye or the rounded con tours of form and limb are en hanced by the clinging, dripping garments. "The first time I saw the young woman of whom I have spoken 1 was carried away by her charms. Few women possess the beauty of form that is startling and overpow ering at the first glance?that seems to a man as if he had suddenly met the creature he was born to love. I experienced that sensation and that shock. "I was introduced to her and was more deeply smitten than ever in my life. She made me her slave, and it was both terrible and deli cious to submit thus to the reign of a woman. It is torture and inde scribable felicity at once. Her look, her 6mile, the little tendrils of hair round her neck ruffled by the breeze, every line in her face, her slightest movement, captivated my senses and ensnared and drove me to dis traction. She took complete posses lion of me. "She was married. Her husband came every Saturday and departed again on Monday. I was not in the least concerned about him nor jeal ous of his relation to her. No liv ing creature ever seemed of less con ?equence to me than this man. "Ah, how I loved her, she who was so gay, so pretty and so grace ful! She was youth, elegance and freshness personified. I never felt more keenly than 1 did then that a iwoman is a sweet, lovely and deli- I cate being made of charms and i graces. Never before had I discov- j ered the beauty that lay in the ^ rounded contour of a cheek, the movement of a lip, the curves and creases of a little ear, the shape even of that stupid feature the nose. '' This lasted three months, when 1 was called to America, whither 1 went with a era lied yid broken heart. Even aw. v fr in her 1 was V t -lave si ill. t. i.rs went by. 1 fould not for t 1 ? r. Her charms were constantly before my eyes and in my heart. 1 cherished her mem ory with a tea ! that had grown calm, ami I loved her as one loves a dream of a most beautiful and enchanting thing. "Twelve years do not mean much in the life of a man. They pass al most unnoticed. One follows upon the other slowly yet swiftly. Each | is long, yet soon at an end. Al though tiicv multiply rapidly, thev leave few traces behind and vanj h so completely that when one looks back upon them there is nothing left to remind us of their flight, and age creeps on without warning. "It seemed to me that only a few years separated ine from that de- , liglitful season Ion the beach at Etrelat. "One day last spring I went to dine with friends at Muissons-La litte. Just as the train was about to start a portly matron entered the coach 1 occupied accompanied by four little girls. I could not help looking curiously at this large, ro tund, motherly creature, whose face was like the full moon under a be ribboned hat. She puffed and punt- i ed from the exertion of her hurried | walk. The children began to bab ble, and I unfolded my newspaper and commenced to read. As we i passed Asnieres my neighbor sud denly accosted me: "'1 beg your pardon, sir. Are you not M. Carnier?' " 'Yes, madame.' "She laughed with the contented laugh of a cheerful woman, but there was just a tinge of sadness in her voice. "'Do you not recognize me?' "I hesitated. It seemed to me that I had .seen her face before, but I could not tell when and frhere. I answered: "'Yes and no?I certainly know you, but I cannot recollect your name.' She blushed a little. " 'Mme. Julie Lefevre.' "I was startled out of my wits. For a moment the earth seemed to reel around me, and a veil was rude ly tori} from my eyes which made me see tilings with terrible, heart rending clearness. "It was she! This stout, common woman, the mother of these four girls! I eyed the little creatures with as much astonishment as I did their mother. They had followed her; they had taken their places in life, already half women, and she counted for nothing?she who had once been such a marvel of delicate I and coquettish charms! "It seemed to me that I had known her but yesterday, and to find her thus again! It was impos sible! A violent pang wrung my heart. I rebelled against Nature and her brutal, infamous work of destruction. I looked at her with frightened eyes. When I took her hand in mine, tears dimmed my vi sion. I wept for her youth; I wept for her death. This stout woman was a stranger to me. She, too, was touched, and she faltered: 'I am much changed, I j know, but it is only natural. I am j a mother now?nothing but a moth- j er?a good mother. Farewell to ev erything else that is passed. 1 did not think that you would recognize me or t-hat we should ever meet again. You yourself are not as' you used to be. It too!$ me some time to decide whether 1 was mistaken in my surmise. Your hair has grown quite gray. Think of it?twelve years is a long time. My oldest daughter is nearly ten years old.' "I looked at the child and discov ered in her some of the old charms of her mother, undefinable as yet, unformed and in the bud, and life seemed to me nothing more than a rapidly passing train. We arrived at Maissons-Lafitte. I kissed my old friend's hand and parted from her with a few trivial phrases. I was too deeply moved to speak. "In the evening when I was alone I examined my face a long time in the mirror and ended by recalling to my mind the picture of myself as I had been in bygone days, with brown mustache and black hair and a young, fresh face. But now 1 was old. Farewell!" Beauty Versus Brains. A physician with wide experience smong the insane has come to the conclusion after examining the brains of 1,000 subjects that nature makes palpable differences between male and female brains, and he fears that the tendency of too much ed ucation or intellectual development in women is to make them lose beauty. He instances the Zaro wo men of India They are supreme. They woo the men, control the af fairs of the home and the nation, transmit property and leave men nothing to do. Result, they are the j ugliest women on earth! " AS OTHERS SEE US. Would a Glimpse of the Picture Thua Presented Be Helpful? In spite ol' the curiosity of most of us to know what others really think of ns it is doubtful whether the man lives who would not ri.-e in wrath if compelled to listen to what others do think of him. It is odd that we are all so ready to swallow unstinted praise, but are at the same time equally ready to resent any unfavorable criticism. The latter we cannot but think is the result of lack of comprehension even if not actually barbed with malice or envy. Burns asser&d that if we could see ourselves from the standpoint and through the eyes of others It wad frae monu* a blunder free us An' foolish notion. Nothing of the kind! It Would, on the contrary, simply confirm us in our opinion that we were very harsh ly mi judged and altogether misun derstood, and instead of lowering our estimate of ourselves -would make us think still less of the acu men of our judges. And when we again turn to the mirror to convince ourselves that we are not as we are painted we are more than ever at a loss to comprehend how the eyesight of others can be so defective with out their knowing it. Human na ture is such that correct descrip tions of the follies audVoibles of others are deemed sarcastic and wit ty; those of our own ill natured and stupid. How many of us are satisfied with a good portrait? IIow few of us think that a photograph flatters us? All the same, the photographer's art lies in making a picture which, while like us, is not too much like us. What we need is not to see our selves as others see us, but to see ourselves as we are, which is quite a different matter?just as differ ent, in fact, from the reality as our own view. A composite of the two negatives, how we see ourselves and how others see us, woukl make a good positive; but, like most good photographs, would neither be flat tering nor acceptable to the subject. ?L. De V. Matthewman in Bran dur Magazine. The Marechal Niel Rose. Although many flowers owe their names to famous people, there is only one instance known when a man and a flower received a title at the same moment. When Niel, a brave French general, was return ing from the scene of his victories in the war between France and Aus tria, he received from a peasant who wished to honor the hero a basket of beautiful pale yellow roses. One of the stems, which happened to have roots clinging to it, the gener al took to a florist in Paris, in whose care it remained until it became a thriving bush covered with blos soms. Niel then took the plant as a gift to the Empress Eugenie. She expressed a great admiration for the exquisite flowers, and on learning that the rose was nameless said sig nificantly : "Then I will name it. It shall be the Marechal Niel," and at the same moment she bestowed upon the astonished general the jeweled baton that betokened his promotion to the high office of mar shal of France. The Bench Was Barred. A king's counsel was appearing in a case of slander, which was being heard before a certain judge, with whom outside court he was on the best of terms. The chief witness was a woman, who appeared to testify to the al leged slander. "Now, madam," began the king's counsel, "please repeat the slander ous statements made by the defend ant on this occasion just as you heard them." "Oh, they are unfit for any re spectable person to hear," was the emphatic response as she looked in dignantly at the barrister. "Then," said the king's counsel coaxingly, "suppose you just whis per them to the judge."?Answers. "Campbells Are Coming." In one of the noonday prayer meetings held in n small country town in Scotland one of the leading lights tried to tell the story of the Scotchwoman in Lucknow whose quick car first discerned the music which announced the approach of the British army to raise the siege. He told the story very well until he came to her rapturous exclamation, which he gave tnus: "Then, starting up and listening intently, she cried: TJinna ye hear it? The camels are comin'!' or the elephants?1 forget which it was."?Scottish American. Wills. They were discussing the factors which make for success in the world when the knowing man said: "There's nothing like force of character, old man. Now, there's Jones. Sure to make his way in the world. Has a will of his own, you know." "But Brown has something bet ter in his favor." "What's that ?" "A will of his uncle." 8 Mrs. Laura. S.

A clergyman hurriedly entered a railway station to pursue a journey, and, hearing the bells ringing to announce the depart ure of the train, hastily handed his bag and a rug to a porter near by. He rushed to get his ticket and then ran on to the platform. "Any luggage, sir?" inquired the guard. "Only a bug and a rag," breath lessly replied the clergymau.? New York Times. Caution!
