"Did you ever feel really sorry for afish?" said a gray-beard^ old fisher-man, as he sat on a log at the edge of a1

stream and sleepily watched the redKEG blue cork riding the little waves ofthe current.

"No, I can't say that I have." re-sponded his companion, who was fish-ing a few yards farther downstream,relate* the Cincinnati Enquirer. "Ev-erything is fish that gets on my hook,and I don't believe I have ever beenfiorry for one yet."

"Well, you haven't fished as long- as1 have. Maybe your time is coming.Some queer things happen around riv-ers and lakes, and when you have beenas intimate with the finny tribe asjuany,years as I have been you will very'likely have seen the fish thai you felteorry for. About 20 years ago T wascamping1 out once on a little lake inMinnesota with my family and a fewintimate friends. One day I was justgetting ready to push my boat out intothe lake for a morning fish. My little"boy was sitting- near the ed#e of the•water playing- with some toy in his3ap. His mother was not far away, and"anyhow the water was so shallow therethat he could have been 2"iven only alittle-wetting if he had fallen in. Theboy was most too young to fisJb, buthe knew fish all right and had shown

?*?" Jill1? i i k in£ f o r item, much toour surprise.

"Among- other*-trinkets the little fel-low had in his lap was a red tin horseabout two or Ihree inches long. Hewas holding this up in the sunlig-ht,waving it about and talking to it.Bright things are extremely attractiveto some kinds of fish, you know. Sud-denly there was a swish and a swirl inthe water just, below the boy's feet anda three-pound bass jumped out of thewater and landed in the boy's lap. Thefish had sprung- to swallow the redhorse. The fish lay gasping in the child'slap. and the boy looked half scared todeath.

*' 'Grab him, Bobby, grab him quick!'I screamed, at the top of my voice. Butevidently Bobby did not hear me orJhe was too badly frightened or too madto obey roe, for the next instant hepicked up the fish in his hands, spankedit twice and threw it back in the'water."

FEMININE FRILLS.

Trifle* Tfeat Are la Seaaoa for MrL«dr'« Totlet at the Pre»-

eat Time,

Fit«e powder is not such a wickedthing as it sounds when* it is used.-properly. A little of it' in summerhelps to keep the skin smooth and dryand does much toward keeping1 thecollars clean. The little package ofsoap papers* to use in case of emer-gency, proved popular, and- after them,came the package of powder papersin little eases and each leaf full ofpowd«r. That i» one of the most con-venient forma of carrying powder forthe woman who likes it when travel-ing, but there is also a little leathercase of about the same size ooo tain-ing a little £hamois, well powdered,as well as the tiny powder puff ina little bag to tuck away with thehandkerchief. Some women prefer abit of .chamois always, in using pow-der, to the powder putf. says the NewYork Times.

New ties which are getting ratherpopular are of soft silk end; made togo twice around the neck with shortends. On each end is a large tassel,the color ot the tie. They are not ex-pensive, which may haye somethingto do with their popularity.

The girl who likes to have thingsmatch depends a great deal upon pinsfor her hat trimmhifrs. There aresome milliners who tell of the advan-tages of pins. With a pm, a flower orbow can be put just where it is want-ed, when having to take innumerablestitches is apt to dislocate it a little.But the girl who has things matchgets a hat that does not cost so much,that she must keep it in condition fora second rear's wear, and then investsin flowers as she finds them in bar-gains. Bargain flowers do not meancheap flowers. The woman who buyseconomically is not the one who goeswithout or buys a poor quality. Sheis the one who gets the things shewants or something- that will answerthe purpose well, and gets it cheaply.The bargain flowers may be good ones.There were some very attractive flow-ers in one of the shops last week for15 cents a bunch, and some of themwere silk. A couple of bunches wouldbe enough to give ttfe color tone to ahat and with some flowers one bunch.The grrrl who has things match hasthe flowers of her hats match thecolors of her ribbons. She puts themofP and on, using the hat which shedoes not mind pinning" into for thefoundation. It is not expensive, andit is very pretty. Black-headed pinsare tbe most satisfactory* to use forthis purpose on black hats, the oneswith dull heads which are not notice-able in the trimming if they chanceto show. .White-headed pins for trim-ming a white hat are used. It is agood idea and worth trying.

ETIQUETTE OF THE DANCE. **

A Few Things^Tbat Should Be Knowsby Every Devotee of Terp-

sfefaore.

The etiquette of the ballroom or theprivate dancing party ought to be fa-miliar to all who attend such diver-sions, but, if so, its observance is farfrom tmiversal. A few general rulesshould always be borne in mind, saysthe Chicago Chronicle.

When a man is presented to a young-woxnan at a dance he usually says al-most at once: "May I have the pleas-ure of this dance?" After dancing" andwalking about the rooms two or threetimes the young man may take the girlback to her chaperon and plead anoth-er engagement, or, better, she suggeststhat he take her to a place near hermother or chaperon. The lady is theone to first intimate her desire to stopdancing.

If a man holds a girl too tightly sheshould drop her hand from his shoul-der so as to bring it between her part-ner and herself. If be does not take

under some preiext so evident that hemay realize her displeasure ox disap-proval.

A chaperon should not be lacking inpersonal dignity; nor should sue dancewhile her charge is unprovided with apartner. A girl should be attentive toher mother or her chaperon, presentingher friends to her and occasionallystopping to say a few words.

Both young men and maidens shouldbe careful to remember that their dan-cing engagements must be kept. A girlmust not refuse to dance with one maunder some pretext and then dancewith another; neither should she dancewith the same man more than two orthree times.

A young man invited to a houseshould dance as early as possible withthe daughter of his hostess and paythem every possible attention.

Jellied Jteat.An excellent jellied-meat for picnics

or camp is this old-fashioned, stand-byof our grandmothers. Get four pigs'feet with legs to the first joint and boilin a pot of water without salt until thebones fall out. Take the meat fromthe liquor, strain and set away to eool.In another kettle have a shank of beefsawed and cut. Boil this in unsaltedwater until very tender. Remove themeat and set tbe liquor away to cool.The next morning remove the faifromT>oth liquors, cut the meat in small bits,add the liquor the pigs' feet werecooked in (the beef liquor can be util-ized in soup), salty pepper and spice totaste, heat and pour in molds to hard-en.

»ae had offered £^0,000, or $1for Titian's celebrated painting•red and Profane Love,M in tb<ghese collection at Home, is due, u •%•probability, to the unirersal huefor astonishing people, although it v \hare some color of possibility to :.Imagination of kindergarten flnu 'clerm, say* the Boston Transcript. In -:senaate prices have been paid forRaphaels, that in the National galleryespecially, which came from the MarKborough collection; also for the worksof other old masters, but never an;such incredible price as this. Yfct itwould be a hard matter to set the PXact limit of value in the case of asa.of Titian, more particularly strchexample as the absurdly misnamMSacred and Profane Love." If th«exists in the world a picture wo$1,000,000, who would be bold enc-to deny the. right of Titian, the po .tate of painters, to be the autn< rthat work? As to the picture kn-by the title of "Sacred and Pro-fiLove"—a title which Titian did not glit, and which has needlessly puzxmany commentators—it is now g.ally considered simply as a fa?> if ;romantic composition.

But Franz Wiekoff, a Germat crithas evolved a theory, which has a gotdeal to recommend it, that this picturepresents an incident in the seveibook of the "Arg-onautica" of ValerFlaccus, the Latin poet, where it islated that Medea, the enchantre:daughter of Aectes, king of Colchis, \>willing to yield to her love for t-Greek Jason, is visited by Venus, wlpleads for the lover and endeavor?persuade Medea to follow her into twood where Jason is waiting. Titia.has represented this scene as takin:place in the open air; the dawn is jubreaking and rosy streaks appearthe horizon. A young woman richldressed is seated on one side of & fouitain, on the edge of which she hplaced a costly casket. Her right haiis in her lap and hold* a bunchmagic herbs. Deeply moved, stie gaz.fbeediy before her. lendiDg ear ttwhile to the persuasive voice of anotbtwoman seated near. The form of tfcj.woman, around which flutters a remantle, is of a marvelous beautsShe rests her right hand upon the fourtain's edge and with her left holds ohigh a vase from which, issues a lighsmoke. Between the two women thgod of love is splashing in the wate,with his chubby little hands. ji

Mr. Wiekoff maintains that in thbeautiful nude figure Venus is easilrecognizable, even when her son is ncthere to indicate her presence. Thwoman to whom she spoke and wotthough unwilling to yield blindly, stiftgfils herself drawn by an irresistib;pbwer, is Medea, who betrayed tbking, her father, and followed Jaso;the stranger and enemy of her people

ODD FLIGHT OF A PIGEON.

FIe«Ur«4 la a Railway Statloa, It 1 e*ularly AccomiMinle* a Tvaia

Out and la.

There is a pig-eon in Belgium whlcregularly flies with, the morning traithat goes from Liege to Waremme.began to accompany the train towaithe end of January, and it has done *every day since then, except on thr*occasions. The Meuse, one of the iea<ing newspapers in Belgium, vouch*for this fact, and gives other curioxdetails about the remarkable bird. Titrain starts at 9:57 a. ED., and a crowgathers daily to see the pigeons go witit. The bird wheels around the st;tion while the passengers are takirtheir seats, and as soon as the whistis blown and the journey begins it tak«up a position a little behind the e-gine, and then it flies surrounded Tthe moist though warm steam, ,whicit evidently enjoys. It retains this psition even while the train is passirthrough tunnels, and apparently ig nincommoded in the least by the warvapor. When the train reaches its detinatiojn the bird flies swiftly along tirailroad track back to Liege, wherearrives about 11:30 o'clock.

This pigeon was born at the railroestation in Liege, and consequentlyfamiliar with trains, smoke and stearCn til a few months ago it occupiewith 11 otners, a comfortable cote, arwhen this was removed from the sttion by order of the authorities it rfused to abandon its old home, tbougits 11 companions at once sought ftshelter elsewhere. This fidelity w{

suitably rewarded. The railroad ofcials .gave the bird carte blanchesearch for food wherever it pleased, axthe public liberally supplied It wrcorn and other dainties. A sing-uhfact is that on the three days whenfailed to accompany the train a Btgian engine was used instead of *tEnglish one, and the assumption. I* th,the fuel consumed by the latter frivforth a sjeam which the bird prefersthat of a Belgian engine.
