One morning mother found a mann. script in a drawer. of your desk; then another and another at intervals. One night she saw you writing and spoke to you. You didn’t answer. You were writing in your sleep or some similar condition. I read the stories. and it occurred to me that it would be a good joke to send them out to magazines. I ‘did so. and they were all accepted. In some instances letters came for you from the magazines. Some 1 opened and found checks inclosed. l resealed the envelopes and returned them. Such is my confession. i am sorry now that I didn’t give them to you.” l was so delighted at having the money to pull me through in my busi- ness afl'alrs that I threw my arms around her neck and thereby put the halter of matrimony that I spoke of around my own. But how I wrote the stories Is 8de a mystery to me. and no one has ever yet been able to give me any expla- nation. - l was in a condition of mind where a man needs to confide in some one. That evening 1 saw Kate Stoughton and told her the whole story. including the fact that the use of a thousand dollars would save my business. Now, 1 had got throng, h my business troubles, all but a thousand dollar note coming due in a few days. All I had to do was to accept checks in payment for my stories and I would be “out of the woods." But 1 had not written the stories and had no right to take pay for them. Besides, If I did so and the real author turned up I would be liable to prosecution for swindling. The editor looked at me. puzzled. Then I told him what had happened. He had supposed the stories with my name attached to them came from me. and he had no explanation of the mys- tery to offer. He handed me a fat check. but I declined it and went to see other editors in whose magazines the other scribbler’s stories had ap- peared. They had all supposed that I was the author of the manuscripts sent in. and all had credited me with the amount dueâ€"in all more than a thousand dollars. “Hello!” he said. "You’re just the man I want to see. I sent a check to you the other day for one of your stories, and the letter inclosing it came back unopened. Have you taken to scribbling for no pay?” “I haven’t sent you a story for months." “Not The Moonshiner?’ ” “No." This was one of the other fellow’s 1 had read. Then it occurred to me to go to some of the magazine offices and find out who the writer was. I went first to an editor I knew best. I didn‘t think much of this at the time. for my business, which had been running so smoothly. began to give me a lot of trouble. and I was finally on the verge of closing it out. I was hanging by my fingers. so to speak. when 1 saw another story with my name to it. and. strange to say. there was the same taint dreamy knowl- edge of it that bad pertained to the former one. The fellow’s stories evlâ€" dently pleased magazine readers. for they began to appear quite often. 1 read every one I came across. and my astonishment grew with each. for there was none but reminded me of something I had heard or read or dreamed. I was puzzled over this. especially be cause I was not familiar with any magazine writer of my nameâ€"Truce. It is not an uncommon one. and doubt- less there were other scribblers bear- ing it. but I knew none such, especially with my initials. I am a man of artistic taste. but. having: taken up business.

Adopting the well. known hypothesis of Helmholtz. which attributes the production of the heat emitted by the sun to its contraction. an idea can be formed of the sun’s duration. If one gives to the sun a coefficient of ex. pansion intermediate between that of mercury and that of gas one arrives at the conclusion that it has taken 1,000.- 000 to 3.000.000 years for the sun to contract to its present radius; in par- ticular. it would ha ve taken 10,000 years to contract from infinity to a radius twice its present radius. Finally, the sun will take 200,000,000 years to con- tract from its present radius to half that radius, and even then its tempera- ture at the surface will be 3.000 de- greesâ€"Scientific American.

The Ancient Greek Theater. The performance at Athens. in an- cient Greece. began at dawn. and, as several pieces were produced one after the other, these performances lasted the whole day. On the days the per- formances were given all work was suspended, business put off, impris- oned debtors were set free and arrests strictly prohibited. Long before sun- rise thousands of people assembled, and outside of the theater noisy crowds of men. women and children congregated. all bent upon enjoying themselves and eager to obtain the best seats. Many of them brought their food with them, and in order to stimulate the enthusiasm 01' the peo- ple copious quantities of fiery Greek wine were given to impecunious citi- zens by wily authors, who endeavored thus to buy the applause of a discrim- inating public. “I told you to leave that out, didn’t I?“ On the night or the performance George played the banned music.

How Turner Painted. if we are to believe 'l‘horubury. the wonderful "Burning or the House of Lords and Commons” was almost en- tirely painted after the canvas was hung on the walls of the Royal acad- emy, So‘ certain was .Turner of him- self at that period that he would send to the exhibition just a laid in sketch. trusting entirely to varnishing days to complete the scheme. He would arrive at the academy as early as 4 o'clock in the morning and be among the last to leave in the evening. Unlike La wrence, who had to step back constantly to judge of eti’ects. Turner would work so to say. with his nose to the canvas. When Lord Hill at too close quarters looked at the houses of parliament pic. ture he condemned it as “nothing but dubs." Catching its magical effect from a just distant-e. however. he exclaimed exithlisiastically: ”Painting! God bless me! So it is.m According to l‘hom- bury.
