In reality it gener- ally proves unusual only to the one concerned in it. My book was turned, face down, on he window sill. I was ready to listen. but Alyn did not go on at once. He sat quietly gazing out of the window across the river. The smile was still on my face as I suggested: “This ‘peculiar case’ certainly has its heroine.” “It has a heroine, yes.” Alyn’s eyes were so frank as they met mine. His gaze had not been so direct nor his face so clear the last time I had seen him. A year’s absence from his old associate had certainly been good for him. It was a pleasure to look at him. Just now his expression puzzled me. I could not fathom it, but it invited me to continue. “Have you her photograph with you?” “Yes.” He drew out of his breast pocket a small red leather case and. opening it. handed it to me. It needed but one glance at the painted oval to make me wclaim impetuonsly: “You lové her. ”So one could doubt that an instant.” Such a picture! A dainty little head covered with short, curling hair; a deli- <-ato. loving, teasing face; dark. full. Iwwitching eyes. The throat was bare. and an indistinct mass of white gauze ended the portrait. Still his expression puzzled me. An inscrutable “mile played over his face, but ho <1c1u3ed beginning the story he had volunteered to frfl. “You must love her.” I spoke with conviction. “I do,” returned Alynâ€"“most sincere 1v.” An 'equal gift to clowns and kings.

Will you care to listen? I used to tell you things when I Was a boy,” he added apologetically; fbicked up my sewing, always lying ready against such times as this, and leaned back in my rocker. Alyn reached for the picture. He leaned his head on one hand and his elbow on the table. In the other hand he held the case where his eyes could rest on the came grave. “It ivas a year ago. One nightâ€"or morning, ratherâ€"I landed on the §e_rry on the way to my lodgings. I couldn’t get a street car or a cab. In fact. I was too drunk to think of either. so 1 stumbled along just keeping straight enough to escape the police. In front vi' my lodgings is an electric light. A slight fall of snow had whitened the pavement and made distinct this case beneath the light. I had just strength and sense enough left to pick it up, tumble up the stairs and stretch myself out on my couch.” Alyn énapped the case shut and paused a moment. ‘ _ \ _ .1.- uuv‘. w wvâ€"vâ€"â€" “Some time the next day I a‘woke and the first thing that attracted my attention was thisâ€"open on the floor and her eyes looking up at meâ€"me in that condition." An expression of disgust good to nee came over the man’s face. “I quickly shut the case and put my. self and my room in order. Then I sat down and studied her.” Still absorbed in his nayrrative. Alyu opened the case again and dropped his eyes on the photograph. “I told you thls was a peculiar case. and you will think. I fear. that I am a peculiar man. But. the more I looked at her the more I wanted to look. 1 never parted with the miniature. I carried it around In my pocket and thought and thought about her until she became a llvlng presence to me. a beautiful woman always with me. I became absentnxlnded.

About the original or the photograph I reasoned this way: She would not be carrying her own miniature around in all probability. It must have been lost by a friend, and probn blyâ€"here was the hard part of it allâ€"by her lover. If I advertised it, he would claim it. and I should not meet her. “I didn’t advertise. I did something far more irrational. I spent my spare hours searching. I visited stores and allied the streets. I haunted the resi- dence part of the city. I Went to the opera and scanned the boxes rather than the stage. Needless to say. I did not find her; yet I never lost hope. I felt I must find her and look at her. I felt this afresh every time I opened this case. I would not give up the search. When I had exhausted every resource 01; my own. I did something which I had shrunk from doing before: I haunted out the best detective in the city and told him to spare neither time nor money in finding her. “Within two weeks I received a note from him. He was obliged to leave the town suddenly. He wrote some- thing like this: .“ ‘I‘ve found her at 320 Water avenue. Imogene Munroe. Will give you par- ticulars when I return tomorrow. She is anxious to recover the miniature.’ “But I could not await the next day. and saw no reason why it would be necessary. I had the photograph and would take it to her. Because of it I should insure myself a reception at least. “I went to 320 Water avenue that evening. It is an elegant residence in perfect keeping with the case and face. I had scribbled on my card. ‘The finder of the miniature.’ The maid who ad- mitted me said that Miss Munroe was at home. She tool: the card and left me in the reception room. It was one of the mostâ€"what shall I call it?â€"de- licious rooms I was ever in. One side was lined with deep windows draped in soft. dainty curtains and filled With plants and flowers. The air was heavy with the scent of roses. “I stood before one of the windows looking at the blossoms when she came. She came so quietly and gently that I did not hear her. It was only when the sweetest. lowest. clearest voice I had ever heard said. ‘At last I am to have my miniature.’ that I knew she was in the room. I confess I trem- bled as I turned and took the hand of],â€" Alyn stopped and smiled. It was a half sad. half amused. wholly in- scrutable smile. My sewing had fallen into my lap. and I leaned forward lis- tening breathlessly. “The hand of the original of the pic- ture. These eyes, this mouth, this del. icate complexion, this same soft curl- ing hair. I was looking on it all; the same but”- "The hair was snowy white. and the skin was wrinkled. Hers was indeed the face of the miniature. the face of 50 years ago. My foolish fancy was destroyed. but in its place came the sweetest little white haired lady that man was ever privileged to call friend. And this miniature! Some way I had Alyn raised his eyes. ment had faded away. a strange reluctance to part with it. and so here it is with me now. That is all." concluded Alyn abruptly. “That is enough." I said quietly. "I think that face has stood between you and”â€" Alyn broke in hastily: “Oh. that is nothing. I couldn’t car- ry this,” holding up the photograph. “into such places as I had been [re- quenting, and 80â€"well. it’s all right." Alyn buttoned up his coat and smiled at me frankly as he went out by way of the office door. The doctor has always said there was the making of a man in that boy. Some Simple Remedies. In one of the United States health reports published in Washington a few simple remedies for emergency uses are suggested. Witch hazel is one and is recommended as one of the quickest soothers and restorers of a tired brain. Bathe the eyes and forehead freely with the liquid and apply a cloth wet with it at the back of the neck. Cloths wet in a strong solution of ham: water are very cool and healing in case of a bum; care should be taken. however, to exclude the air in putting them on. A tiny pinch of powdered born)". placed on the tongue and allowed to dissolve slowly will almost instantly stop a. backing. irritating cough that may be disturbing one at night. The same treatment relieves an ulcer in the throat. and at the slightest irri- tation or soreness of the throat a car- gle of salt water and borax will he found efiiclent. Learning a Language. How is it that Englishmen are not the best linguists in Europe? Simply and solely because of the general and absurd “deaf and dumb" method of studying foreign languages. Foreign- ers learning English know better than to waste years over books: they simply “chatter” and learn one word and ex- pression after another. and become familiar with them by constant repeti- tion. with the result that in a few months they can speak and write our language sufficiently well for all prac- tical purposesâ€"London Mail.
