The dark e? Ad Miss Brown smiled a
Uttlo wickedly as she gathered her filmy
■kirt up in her hand asod tripped up the
ataira with the most approved Delsartean
grace. She felt sure that Mr. von Ehren
was watching her progress with admire
tion, and she suspected that each click of
her high heeled slippers upon the stairs
brought a throb to his 'youthful German
heart. That was why the dark eyed Miss
Brown smiled.
When she had hung up the filmy frock
and kicked off the high heeled slippers
and was attired in a dressing gown and
knitted, shapeless footgear, she was still
smiling. She brushed her hair and looked
at herself critically.
“lain certainly better looking than I
was,” she murmured appreciatively, “and
I know bow to make the most of my
sharing better than I did. This pink
thing is becoming. He must be younger
than I. It’s almost mean for ine to let
myself fascinate him Those Germans are
so romantic. They are not flippant, cold
blooded things like our men.” Here Miss
Brown’s dark eyes looked somber, and she
glared for a second at a photograph on her
table. Then her face brightened again,
and she went on in her reflections.
“If it were purely a personal matter,”
she decided, “I simply would not do it.
But it is not personal. Those foreigners
are really in a state of painful ignorance
about the American woman. I dare say
they think a girl who has been to col
lege can’t be fascinating. For me to prove
to the handsome Herr von Ehren that we
can be all things to all men will he really
a patriotic act, a vindication of the new
woman, a triumph over the flaxen haired,
Madonna faced, eternally knitting ideal.
Still, of course, it mustn’t bo allowed to
get too serious. I don’t want him shoot
ing himself or me.”

Sane Advice to Young Artists.
“Don’t give in’’ was about the gist
of what Sir Wyke Bayliss said to the
English art students in a lecture at the
South Kensington museum. He told
them what ought to be their watchword ’
“Do not believe, he said, in the in
sidious lie that the devil is always
whispering to the soul of the artist
that the golden age of art is past and
that what was done yesterday cannot be
done today, for art is in its decadence.
Such an assertion was the danger of the
time, and he would have them track it
to its source and kill it there. It had
two forms—despondency and tempta
tion—but he urged them not to be in
fluenced by either. Let their study be
based upon knowledge, the knowledge
that had accumulated during the ages
and was formulated in what was known
as academic training, and let their
knowledge in turn be based upon then
own *tudy. ”
Certainly that is the best of advice,
for what has been done before can be
done again.

Our acquaintance with him was
bound by the strongest ties of so
cial friendship. Our deceased
friend and Christian brother
seemed to think so much of the
writer of these few lines that on
coming to Gainesville our memory
would be most invariably fixed
upon him as one above a great
many others we w r ould like to meet
aud converse with upon current
events of the day. Mr. Banders
v.r a man of sterling worth; his
judgment as a financier and a
farmer were exactly good. He was
a Liuhtoned though an humble
Christian gentleman ; in our esti
mation his character was as spot-
les as the driven snow. Oh how
this pjor heart longs to be like
him in his humble and friendly
walk in this world. He possessed
tho happy gift of winning the
good will of every one; none knew
h. 1 ut to love him. In the lan
guage oi the poet lie was a friend
to
“The rich, the poor, the great, the
small,
The tribes of every nation."
How t often within the last few
weeks we have asked him what he
thought of the coming war between
this and a foreign country and he
as often Baid he thought there
would be no war, and after hostil
ities began his ideas were that the
war would be of short duration.
With our beloved friend himself
there is no war now'—all is peace
quiet and happiness; with him the
battle of life in the Christian war
fare has ended, his last enemv
''inch was death has been con
quered; he has laid his shield and
armor down, has triumphed over
death, hell and the grave, and is
now wearing his crown of glory at
the right hand of his father in
heaven.

Brown climbed into the big four pos
bed which filled the larger part of her
room in the old homestead where she was
epending the summer and fell at or* ? into
the refreshing sleep which comes especial
ly to those whose minds are free from
guile.
In pursuance of her patriotic plan Miss
Brown permitted the young German, with
the handsome, boyish face and the courtly
air, to be her constant attendant every
where. He seemed to like the position.
His eyes sought her plaoe the instant be
entered the dining room. If she started
out for a ramble, he always sprang to her
side and, with his foreign air of deference
and humility, begged permission to accom
pany her. Every one about the place no
ticed and smiled at the young man’s ap
parent infatuation.
Miss Brown played her part exceeding
ly well. £he w/ss a clever young woman
and never allowed the youth to become too
personal or too sentimental. She told him
about her college life, and he seemed to
never weary of her tales. She discussed
everything with him from the classics to
clambakes and from poetry to politics.
She was one of the few young women who
could do this in a way that would inspire
dihe respect of a man who knew m.uch on
these subjects, but who was unaccustomed
to women who knew anything outside ^he
purely feminine realm.
It was before the evening that Miss
Brown tried to instruct Mr. von Ehren in
the beauties of Browning that she decided
to stop playing with fire. She did not fear
it herself; but, as she put it. a conscience
not quite outgrown kept her from getting
real enjoyment out of other people'S
agonies. And the courtly, slow speaking
young man had really seemed to her until
that eveninar to be approaching the stage

The Bank of England note is 5 inches
by 8 in dimensions and is printed in
black ink cn Irish linen water lined pa

The notes of the Banque de France ara
made of white water lined paper, print
ed in blue and black, with numerous
mythological and allegorical pictures,
and running in denomination from the
25 franc note to the 1,000 franc. South
American currency, in most countries,
is about the size and appearance oj
American bills, except that cinnamon
brown and slate blue are the prevailing
colors and that Spanish and Portuguese
are the prevailing languages engraved
on the face.
The German currency is rather ar
tistic. The bills are printed in green
and black. They run in denominations
from o to 1,000 marks. These lattei
bills are printed on silk fiber paper.
The Chinese paper currency is in red,
white aud yellow, with gilt lettering
and goi^eous little hand drawn devices.
Tbe bills, to the ordinary financier,
might pass for washing bills, but they
are worth good money in the Flowery
Kingdom. Italian notes are of all sizes,
shapes and colors. The smaller bills, 8
and 10 lire notes, are printed on white
paper in pink, bine and carmine inka
and ornamented with a finely engraved
vignette of King Humbert.
The 100 ruble note of Russia is barred
from top to bottom with all the colon
of the rainbow, blended as when shown
through a prism. In the center, in bold
relief, stands a large, finely executed
vignette of the Empress Catherine I.

“I cannot understand your Browning,”

German accent which all the summer
boarders found so delightful. “What is it
which he means by such things as this,
‘Where he stands the arch fear in a visible
form yet the strong man must- go?’ "
“Oh, you have been reading ‘Prospice,’
have you?” ^aid Mr. von EhlMl’s guide.
“He means death, of course. "
“I understand better the rest. The rest
is very beautiful,” said he, and he began
to quote it. But Miss Brown didn’t want
to hear “Oh, thou soul of ray soul!” even
with the quotation marks. So she stopped

“Well, if I may fiot bd permitted to
speak of that,” said the gentleman oblig
ingly, “may I ask your permission to read
the little poem I find here, ‘One Way to
Love?" You might kindly elucidate that.”
But Miss Brown didn’t care to hear th€
poem.
“Ah,” said Mr. von Ehren. “It is not
so we love. When we have missed the
heaven, we do not say, ‘Those who win
heaven, blest are they.’ We love other
wise.”
“You are still Werthers over there, 1
imagine,” said Miss Brown lightly, ris
ing as she spoke.
“Pardon me,” said the young man,
rising also, “if I ask you what may seem
to you a most impertinent question. You
have told me and shown me much about
America and American ways. Will you
not tell me how it is that American worn
en love?”
“Herr von Ehren must ask a more ex
perienced American woman than I that
question,” answered Miss Brown, with a
certain dignity. She was annoyed. If the
man was going to make an idiot of him
self, it would be disgusting.
“It is not,” pursued he, “as our women
do. I convinced of that. You are all
different. You”—
“It is a subject on which one cannot
generalize,” broke in Miss Brown quit*
curtly, “and on which we most certainly
do not wish to particularize. I think
there’s a fog coming in.”
“The fraulein wishes tbe subject
changed," hazarded the German, smiling
at Miss Brown in a peculiarly irritatin''
way. “But before we leave it may I nc
ftffir her congratulations that I know about
the German waj$ of loving?"
Miss Brown for the moment was almost
staggered, but before the German had a
chance to observe that she had recovered
herself sufficiently to say:
“Ah, it is as I suspected. Indeed I do
congratulate you. And is she a flaxen
haired maedchen?” .
Mr. von Ehren kindly gave a bnef de
scription of the young woman who was
waiting for him to.finish his travels, and
Miss Brown struggled desperately to think
what had been the secret of his devotion
to herself.

“You do not seem fond of soup,"

“You certainly seem to project your

“What is that?” asked the stork

“Stork stuffed with olives,” shrieked
the fox in a very pronounced manner
and instantly dispatched him.

An Undeveloped Idea.
Some years ago, according to the Bos
ton "transcript, an in ventor who had de
vised a new sleeping car took his plans
to Mr. Pullman. The latter, after look
ing over them, said: “There is an idea
there. 1 will give you $100,000 cash
for your patents. ” The inventor was a
poor man, and he would not accept tne
terms. He said that if the idea was
worth $100,000 to Pullman it was
worth millions to him. The car was
built and proved a financial failure, and
it is believed that even to this day the
inventor does not know where the
"idea” was whose presence Mr. Pull
man discerned in the working plans.

Copper Tempered by Mound Builder*.
Ed A. Schloth has received from a
friend in Savannah, Ills., a long and
small spearhead, a small knife, an awl
and a needle taken from one of the pre
historic mounds near that city. The tools
are all of tempered copper, and when
suspended by a thread ring like steel.
They have been hammered out and tem
pered, and after having been buried in
a mound for no one knows how long
still retain their temper. The mound
builders, who had disappeared from the
face of the earth before Oolumbua dis
covered this country, knew how to tem
per copper, an art which no man an
earth has now, although many have en
deavored for years to discover the proc
ess. Such specimens are found in but
few of the mounds opened, the imple
ments found being generally of stone.
Mr. Schloth has a fine collection of rel
