I am afraid I cannot make an exception even for you." Then, seeing the "S.

"I began life very low down on the ladder of prosperity. My attic-studio was in Goosegreen, Hammersmith, $Dd here 1 used to spend my time chiefly in enlarging photographs for a firm in Edge ware Road. "It was in the autumn of 18--(and then put a dash, don't you knew--)" and the eminent Academician crossed over to see that it was put down right. "Yes, that's it, go on. "At the time when my more for tunate brethren were returning from their summer holidays loaded with sketches to work up during the win ter I was sitting at the portrait of a city magnate. It seemed a hopeless task trying to put anyiexpression into that heavy, podgy, pudding face. I struggled on reproducing the photo graph, until I could smell the smell of a city dinner and see little scraps of turtle floating in the air. Then I threw down my pencil and gave it up in despair. "That was too much for my empty stomach. The whole air ot the room was impregnated with that bloated alderman, with his tiny pig-like eyes and dilated nostrils sniffing for feed. I lighted my pipe and threw myself back in a low wicker chair, sick of my inart'stic artist's life and dis gusted with my work. ••.Suddenly there come a gentle rap at the door. I started. It was very unusual with me to have visitors so late in the day. "The man who entered was the most remarkable man I have ever seen. He was tall and thin--so thin, that, to my overworked brain and tired eyes, it almost seemed as if I could see right through him. "His face was a deathly white^ and his eyes burned with a steady, con stant light that frightened me. Their sole expression seemed to me their intensity, and when the fire light sell on them they tamed a deep blood-red, like a dog's eyes in the Bun. "At first he entirely overlooked me, although 1 had sprung to my feet as he entered. He crossed over to the easel on which the portrait of that ghastly alderman was hanging, and he walked with a silent 6huftie, almost without lifting bis feet, that suggested to me that he might be mad--I know not why. "He tapped the wet canvas with his knuckle, and said, still without looking at me: •• 'You paint portraits, I believe? Ah, you paint them well; you must paint mine.' "He spoke in a quiet; determined way, as if he were used to command. Few words passed between us. He wanted me to begin at once, in spite Gf the fast fading lixht, and I Immediately placed a fresh canvas on the easel. "There he sat like maible, his death-like face immovable, his lips tightly closed. "1 worked away, inspired by the solemn beauty of his face. A terri ble fascination impelled me, and I never worked taster or better. t., "In two hours I had completely mastered his face, but the light of the eyes no brush could paint. " 'I'm afraid 1 can't^see any more to-night,' I said. «Can you spare me another sitting to-morrow?' "He rose silently, and glanced in a satisfied way a' the canvas. " 'Same time to-morrow,' he said, and then disappeared. " 'Well, to cut a long story short," went on the famous R.; A., "the mysterious stranger came and went in the same silent way for three or four days, until I had finished his picture. "When the last sitting was over, be held out his hand. Thank you,' he said; 'at last I have bad justice done. You might keep the picture until I bring the money,' and then he disappeared. "From that day every one who came into my studio admired the portrait of that wondrous face. My brother artists advised me to show It at the Academy, and as three months had passed ana 1 nad never heard a word from my silent patron, I thought there could be no harm in doing so. "It was hung on the line and, as you doubtless remember, attracted very considerable attention. In those days it was the custom to put a fancy background to portraits, and 1 had chosen from among my sketches a wild craggy ravine, sombre and pre cipitous, which seemed to harmonize with that striking figure. It was a memento of my last summer's trip to fount in. and, from that day to this I have never ceased to etlmb the slippery ladder of fame. "After the academy had been opened a few days, a city solicitor called upon me. " 'I believe,' he said, 'you are the painter of picture No 458, Jtfcthe Academy?' p ' 'I ack n owl edged I was. " 'May 1 ask,' went on my visitor, looking curiously round my studio, •may I ask,' he repealed, 'who was the original of that portrait, and how long it has been painted?' •••Hisname, unfortunately, I do not know. As for the date'--and I o. ened my dairy. «Yes, here it is-- August 3lst>' " Are you quite sure?' said the solicitor eagerly stretching out his hand for the book.

I had a sketch of it in my portfolio and picked it cut when the idea was suggested that I ought to send it to the Academy.' 'Thank you,' he said. 4I am ex tremely obliged."

"A most extraordinary trial is now attact- Ing attention in Scotland, It appears that last summer a certain Mr. Gilchrist was traveling in Aberdeen with his wife and friend. One morning Mr. Oilchrist left the hotel on a mountain expedition, from which he nevor returned. "The suspicions of his friends were aroused by the marriage of Mrs. Oilchrist a few weeks after the disaster with a certain Mr. Freeman, who had been their traveling companion. They could, however, find no traces ot foul play. "In this year's Academy there appeared a portrait of the deceased. Subsequent in vestigation showed it had been painted three or four months after his death. The artist, however, could throw no fresh light upon the mystery, of which the most extraordi nary feature was that tho background-- which he selected by chance--was a sketch of the very district in which Mr. Oilchrist had disappeared. "His relatives determined to sift the mat ter. and searching the exact spot in the picture, they have found the body, with a rusty dagger imbedded in his side. "The weapon was at once identified as the property of Mr. Freeman, who is now on trial for the murder of Mr. Gilchiist.

The eggs of insects have ° greater powers of vitality than any others. A case was published of an egg pro ducing an insect eighty years after it must have been laid, and the scien tist responsible for this statement thinks the power of vivification may endure in these eggs for an indefinite period. Many egi,s of insects are ex posed to the air without any covering, and many are sheltered too slightly to be secure from the frost This, however, the, are able to resist, re maining unfrozen, though exposed to the severest cold, or, still more sur prising, are uninjured by its intense action, recovering their vitality even after haying been frozen into lumps of ice. On expos ng several silk worm eggs for Ave hours to a freez ing mixture which made Fahrenheit's thermometer fall to 83 degrees below zero Mpollanzl found that they were not frozen nor their fertility in the sli&rhtest degree impaired. Others weren exposed to a degree of 36 degrees below zero without be ing injured. The quality of the eggs of snails is, perhaps, even more marvelous. These eggs, if des- sicated in a furnace until they are scarcely visible, will always regain their original bulk when damped,and the young will be brought forth as though the eggs had never been in any way interfered with. Neither heat nor cold seems to have any in jurious effect upon their vitality for they have been frozen into ice lor any length of time and when the i6e is melted will be found to be wholly uninjured.--Baltimore American. Rafndeer Meat as Food. A' clergyman, the Reverend Mr, Wallis,who has lived several years on the Porcupine river in the British northerly possession^ writes entertainingly of his manner of life in that frigid region. "Many times," he says, "1 have subsisted almost exclusively on rein deer meat. It is very good, and I may say it is about the onty kind of 1 meat you don't get t-red of. 1 think j it is better, alljthings considered,than , beef, and that you can eat it longer without its palling on you. It is a venison more than anything else. The Indians eat it almost exclusively, and they are very big and strong. Some of tbem are six feet high, and the average is about Ave feet, ten inches. They are genuine North American Indians, and not the Aleuts, Eskimos, or a mixture of the two. "1 keep an Indian hunter, and he supplies me with all the reindeer meat 1 want. He also brings me gouse, duck, bear, and other game as 1 need ItT I have learned to shoot pretty well myself, as the white men do in that region or anywhere con tiguous to it. The ducks and gouse, like the reindeer, are remarkably good eating." » "• Solicitude. * What it is to be a genuine, single- minded egotist is illustrated in a re cent Frtnch volume by a story of Mrue. du Deffand, a celebrity of the last century. Mme. du Deffand was a great invalid, and" spent much of her time in bed, but this fact did not prevent her from receiving a great deal of company. ° One day when she was thus in bed several guests arrived and were ad mitted. They ail began to shiver and pull the cloaks around them. "What,;' exclaimed the invalid, "is it cold here?" "It is simply freezing," answered a guest. "Thank you for telling me," said Mme. du Deffand. She rang a bell. The guests sup- posed she was sending for a maid to bu Id a tire; but when the servant came in Mme. du Deffand said: "Amelie, bring me in my down coverlet!" Having given this order, she began a conversation about other matters. A MAN anxious to succeed should select a business be can atiek to all his Ufa That Sinking Feeling. A. Detroit doctor is laying for a boy about 16 years old, who came into his office one day last week, and after get ting the doctor's advice, disappeared and has not since been seen, at least by him. "Doctor," said the boy, "Ihaveasink- ing feeling all over, a great many times a day." "Ever at night9" asked the doctor. "Hardly ever." "Let m^see your tongue." The bov showed his tongue; the doctor felt his pulse, sounded his chest, worked a stethoscope on hira, listened at his heartbeats, and then told him what was the matter with him and what to take for it. "Maybe my business has got some thing to do with it, doctor." suggested the boy, as the physician stepped into the adjoining room to get a phial. "Hardly that, I think," cheerily sung out the physician from the other room. "What is your business?" "I run an elevator," responded the lad, and before the doctor cOuld get to him he had disappeared, as above stated. A Sheriff's Posse. The full name of the Sheriff's posse is posse comitatus, or power of the county; the Sheriff being the chief executive officer of the county, he and his assistants embody the power of the entire county. All male persons ex cept physicians and (Clergy men are lia ble to be summoned to serve on the posse, and there is no forme 1 warning for duty, as there is for the jury. The Sheriff simply calls on the first suita ble men whom he meets to come with him, bringing arms, and the men are legally bound to obey the call. In cities the same power to a limited ex tent lies in policemen, and Constables in the country possess it. That is, they may call upon the bystanders to assist them; and persons so called upon are bound to answer the call, or be pun ished for refusing to do so. Tariff and Taxation. Tariff duties and internal revenue taxa tion on incomes and corporations are ex citing public interest, but of quite as much interest are those things which tax the system and require at once an external remedy. <"n this subject; with special recommendation, Mr; Pierce D. Brown, Bridge water, Mass., says: "In accidents from all kinds of athletic sports, to reduce 6prains and bruises, I have used St Jacobs Oil and always found it most reliable." Also, Ur. C R. Sands, Mar stum, Okla., writes: «I have used St. Jacobs Oil for sprains and rheumatism and would not be without it for anything." MB R Led hot ter, Denton, Texas, says: «1 have used 6t Jacobs Oil and it Is the only thing I ever saw that would cure toothache in ten min utes' time," and it is usually prompt and sure for frost-bites.

Bound to Have His Fnn. Speaking of football brings to mind a time not many years ago when Yale's athletic conscience was not so tender as at present. On her team were grad uates galore. She even went outside of a candidate or two, though none of the imported "tons o' men" finally played at Springfield. Among the surreptitiously acquired material was one true-hearted son of old Erin, over six feet tall, and re nowned as a pugilist. His physique was excellent, but somehow he never seemed to get into the plays. Nor was he deficient in courage. The coachers could not understand it until one day he was given the ball to run with. Then some rusher tackled him hard, and in a minute the former pugilist had dropped the ball and was going at the taokler hammer and tongs. "Here, you!" shouted the coachers. "What are you doing there? Play football!" And between the cracks of the blows came back the answer: "Oh, go to the divil, an' lave me do me man!"--Boston Budget.
