THE FATE OF THE ROSES. ~
f**Mj love is like a rod, red rose. ,# J
A white rose, she, and a red rose, he,
Were summering in a garden.
Be breathed his love; she smiled and blwhlA
Then he softly begged her pardon.
A cloud in the sky, a sigh in the wind,
A butterfly comes and goes.
Daintily kissing the pure white lips,
Ignoring the jealous red rose.
From the east, from the west, night’s shtdWJ
fall,
The stars shine forth in glory.
Neath the moon’s pale light the roses kiss.
’Tis only the old, old story!
So the red rose, he, and the white rose, aht
Cling closer and closer together,
Till aide by side at last they are one
In sunshine and stormy weather.
—•Boston Transcript.
A IIUNCH OF ROSES.
“The first 1 hnve seen this year,” he
said as Joau took a small bunch of
primroses from the table.
“Beautiful, aren’t they?" she cried.
“Very,” said Reginald, looking full
into her eyes.
“Nousense. Bosides,” Joan added,
“you oughtn't to say so.”
“Why not?" lie demanded, coming
nearer.
“It isn't expedient.”
“I wish it were lawful,” he said.
Joan sighed as she looked down at
the primroses.
“I wonder whether you will think
me verv shabby?” she murmured.
“Why?”
“If I ask you not to stay very long?”
"Oh, of course, if you want to get
rid of me”— he exclaimed, taking his
hat and stick.
"Don’t be absurd, Reggie!”
"You don’t, then?”
“Yes, I do, ” she insisted, and she
flung the primoses carelessly on the ta
ble.
“If you’vo finished with them”—
“Well?” she asked, with a challeng
ing glance.
“They will do for me, ” he said, tak
ing them up.
“Certainly not," Joan cried, holding
forth a band.
“Mayn’t I keep them?” he pleaded.
“Give them to me," she said, and he
put them in her hand. Then Reginald
replaced his hat on the tuhlo. “Ohl"
she expostulated.
“You want mo to go?”
“Lord Roper is coining,” she ex
plained, with a fine blush.
“But lie's only just gone. Iniet
him”—
“He's coming back, ” said Joan, a lit
tle petulantly.
“Anjhow I’ve often been in the same
room with Roper before,” Reginald
suggested, with au anxious expression.
“Yes, but”—
"Of course, if you really want me to
go,” said Reginald.
“Oh, I don't know what 1 want l" -
she cried, leaning hack in her chair.
“Let me offer my advice, Joan,” he
urged, with a hand on the back of her
chair.
She raised her chin, looking up into
his face.
“I’m afraid”—
“Well?” he said as she hesitated.
“It might not be unprejudiced, Reg
gie.”
His hand chanced to touch her fair
brown hair.
“Has Roper”—
“Yes,” she said quickly.
“And you hesitatod!”
“I promised to decide in an hour, ”
she admitted.
“Joan,” he said, bending forward
over the back of her chair, “you’re
not”—
“Yes,” she murmured, “I think I
am, Reggie.”
After a short silence, during which
she stared very hard at the bunch of
primroses, Reggie whispered:
“You’ll be awfully miserable.”
“Oh, I don’t know!” she said.
“So shall I.”
“Just for au hour, perhaps,” she re
turned, “aud’if”—
“Well?” he said.
“If I weren’t a wise woman, you—
we—might be miserable longer, you
know. ”
“I should like to take the risk, ” be
muttered. “Of course, I haven’t got
£IO,OOO a year”—
“Poorold Reggie! No, you haven’t.”
“And I can't pretend to be old enough
to be your grandfather,” he said.
“Oh, that’s a libel 1” she cried, sit
ting upright. “Besides, one can’t al
ways please oneself. ”
“I don’t see why—if it would pleasa
you. ”
“It wouldn’t please my people, any
how,” she retorted.
“The greatest nuisance in the world
are one’s relatives,” cried Reggie.
“Now if you were au orphan”—
"I’m happy to say I’m not.”
“Still, one can’t marry only to please
one’s mother,” he insisted.
“Not only”—
"Oh, well,” be said, and walking
■lowly away from her chair, Reginald
took his hat from the table again. He
stood for some time staring into its lin
ing, and then be sighed.
“I suppose I may as well go, ” he
suggested.
“It ingrowing late,” Joan murmured.
“Only just s”
“I thought it was half past,” she
said.
“Not that I’m in the least hurry, ”
be answered.
“I fancied you were.”
“But, theD, Roper will be here," be
said lugubriously.
“Yes”—
“Joan, I don’t believe you’ve made
up your mind yet. ”
"I alwaya like to look before I leap, ”
she insisted.
“Yes, it’s an awful plunge, ”he said,
with a solemn air.
“You see. Reggie, there’s an applaud
ing crowd watching to see me take it.”
“It wonid be an awful sell for them,
wouldn’t it?” be suggested, putting
down bis hat.
"What?” Joan asked.
"It isn’t too late,” he insisted.
"Too late?”
"Joau,” he whispered, and he cap
tured the hand which hold the bunch
of primroses. “Dearest, we’re at the
parting of the ways.”
“Oh, please don’t he tragic, Reggie!”
“We can go together, or we cau —vre
can do the Other thing. ”
“I don’t think I cun," she said.
“Why not?” bo whispered.
“I—l’m just a little afraid.”
“But I shall be there, dear. A rather
rough road—perhaps—at first, but to
gether, you know.”
“All my people”—
Reginald ustonisbed her by tho blunt
ness of his retort.
“You oughtn't to spenk like that of
them,” she said reproachfully.
"No, I oughtn’t,” he admitted.
“But what I say doesn’t inntter. The
word is with you.”
“How often have I said it!” Bhe
cried.
"Bnt this time there seems a kind of
finality übont it,” he said ruefully,
and as he spoke a hansom drove up to
the door.
“That is Lord Roper,” she exclaim
ed, darting to the window.
“Am I to go?” he asked.
“Oh, please”— (
"Goad by, Joau,” ho said and took
bis bat again.
“You will meet him on the stairs,”
she cried as Reginald stepped toward
the door.
“I will stay if you like,” he offered,
coming to a standstill.
“I don’t think"—
"Oh, very well!” he said, turning
awuy.
“Perhaps yon had better,” she ax
claimed, coming toward him. “And,
Reggie!”
“Yes,” he said, meeting her half
way.
“If you care for tho primroses”—
“I do, ” he returned.
“Shall I”
She drew quite close, and standing
on tipped toes (she was u small person)
deftly placed the bunch in tho button
hole of Reginald's frock coat. Suddenly
Joau sprang away and the door opened.
Lord Roper entered with the nir of a
sneoessful wooer, but seeing Reginald
he appeared ludicrously astonished. Ho
stroked his dyed mustache with one
hand while ho held his hat in the other.
Joan’s face grew red as a peony, and
Reginald looked down at the hunch of
primroses in his buttonhole. Ilia atti
tude seemed to arrest Lord Roller’s at
tention. Then ho dartod a sharp glance
about the room.
"Those are tho first primroses I have
seen this year,” he said.
“Harbingers of spring,” remarked
Joau, with a smile.
“You attach n great significance to
them, then, Miss Joau?" continued
Roper coolly.
"Oh, yes; I am not like Peter Bell,”
she answered.
“I am afraid I can’t stay to see your
people after all, ” said Lord Roper. “1
am like the Irishman,” he continued,
with a smile; “1 am hero only to say I
couldn’t come. ”
“I am sorry, Lord Roper.”
“Ob, well, it is tho fortune of war,”
ho said, “and tho spoils go to tho vic
tor.”
“But a battle may be drawn,” she
oried, with a rather approhenaivo glance
at Reginald, “and,” she added, “there
may not be auy serious casualities. ”
With that she offered her hand, and
he pressed it slightly. .Then ho nodded
to Reginald and went away.
“He bears it well,” said Reginald as
the door closed.
“Bears what?” Joan asked, with a
sigh.
"Why, his defeat,” answered Reg
gie; “though I don’t see how be
knew”—
“I suppose it wus tho primroses, ” she
said demurely.
“Did he”—
"He brought them from Roper Park
this morning,’’ she said, and Joau
sighed again.
“Roper is not a had sort of fellow, ”
be remarked.
“Oh, I respocthim immensely 1" cried
Joan.
"And yon respect his dictum,” Regi
nald suggested.
“What do you mean?" ebo asked
quickly.
“The spoils to the victor, you know,”
said Reggie, and he took her hand*.
“Aro they worth huving?” she whis
pered.
“Darling”—
“And yet”—
“Yes?” he said, as she stepped.
“I—l hesitated, Reggie, dear,"she
murmured, drooping her eyelids.
“Still, you were not lost,” he mur
mured, drawing hor closer.
“It was a rather near thing, ” aha
said. “If you had not come"—
“Well?”
“I might have been tempted”—
“Never mind the might have been,
Joan, ” be urged.
“And yet I”
“Yes?”
“Oh, you know!” she said, biding
her face against his coat.
"You Joved me all the time, dear.”
[ “Of course’’—
"Thut is all I wantl" he cried.—

AIiOFT CHAN* OF LIFE.
“I suffered for ’eight years, and
could find no permanent relief until
one year ago. My trouble was Change
oZ Life. I tried Lydia E. Pinkhara’s
Vegetable Compound, and relief came
never had any
thing help so much. I have better
health than I ever had in my life. I
feel like anew person, perfectly
strong. I giro the Compound all the
credit. I have recommended it to sev
eral of my friends who are using it
with like results. It has cured me of
several female diseases. I would not
do without Mrs. 4’inkham’s remedies
for anything. There is no need of so
much female suffering. Her remedies
are a sure cure.’’ —hi us. Ei.i.A, Kiunkk,
Kniglitstown, Henry Cos., Ind.
By the way, the leading druggists
tell us that the demand for Lydia E.
Pinkhara’s Vegetable Compound is
simply beyond their power of under
standing ; and, what is best of all, it
does the work promptly and well.
Plnnl.ts Practice Too Mm-ti.
“While studying with Rubinstein,
Josef Hofmann prao iced three iiours a
day,” writes Mary B. Mullctt of tho
famous pianist* in Tho Ladies’Homo
Journal, “Ho believes that most stu
dents make tlu mistake of overpractic
ing. When ho came to this country tho
first time, ho was practicing an hour n
day. For two years nftir his return to
Germany ho practiced two hours a day.
During the* next two years he averaged
four hours daily, and after that, until
he went to Rubinstein, six hours daily.
This he regards as excessive,
“ ‘One's mind glows stupid and con
fused,' Hofmann says, ‘and one's linger*
follow tlio confusion of tho brain. An
other mistake of young pianists is that
they use too much force in practicing.
One should play, just hard enough to
keep the fingers and wrists from getting
stiff. One is not aiming for artistic re
sults as one is in concert playing. It is
the fingers which need constant prac
tice.’ ”
llalr Powder,
The cause of the general disuse of
hair powder wus the high pVicoof flour.
It wus thought little less than criminal
that flour, which was almost beyond
tho reach of some of the very poor,
should be used by tho rich ns a mere
fashionable luxury of dress. Voluntary
associations were formed, tho members
whereof bound themselves not to use
hair powder. In a similar way the
abolitionists bound themselves not to
use any sugur whose production involved
the employment of negro slaves. Notes

Tho other afternoon I was in a gen
tleman’s outfitting shop when a cus
tomer came in to purchase a hat. He
tried on several and was evidently hard
to please, the counter becoming covered
with the rejected. At last the salesman
pickod up a brown felt bowler, brushed
it round with his arm and extended it
admiringly.
“These are being very much worn
this season, sir,” he explained.
“Are they?” said tho customer
thoughtfully, surveying himself iu the
mirror, with his hat on his head. “Do
you think it suits me?”
“.Suits you to perfection, sir, if the
fit’s right. ”
“Yes, it fits very well. Ho you think
I had better have it?”
“I don’t think you could do better,
sir.”
“No, I don’t think I could, so I won’t
have anew one. ”
The salesman bad been praising up
the old hat.—Pearson’s Weekly.
