A GERMAN BRIDEGROOM.
1 had spent the evening with a friend
who :i»»- _ little t»o. of Hamburg. Ah
my borne bore me in sight of my home
1 was surprised to nee a light in my
fat tier’s counting hoowx for it was nearly
S o'clock. I threw myself front ay home
and entered the room. My father was
at his writing desk.evidently waiting
for me.
“Good morning. Henry," said he. with
out laying down his pen, “lam glad that
yon have come. I want you to make ar
rangements to go to France tomorrow at
noon."
“To France, father?—and on what
errand?"
Yon are to lie married."
1 “Married!" 1 cried in astonishment.
1 “Yes; a daughter of Merchant Peter
son, of Bordeaux."
' “But, father! Marry a girl whom I
do not even know?"
“Certainly. It in a good family, and
you ean have your choice between three
daughters."
“But suppose I don’t like any of them?”
“No nonsense, Henry,” said my father
etenily. “Yon are to utart at noon."
I could but obey my father's order, so
. noon found me on board ship, with Ham
burg gradually Doling from my sight.
Instead of going directly to the honse of
my future father-in-law, I left the ship
at B< dogne and went to Paris. I rented
a furnished room, assumed the title of
“Lord Johnsbtiry,” and tumbled about
for two weeks, swing, hearing, and
tasting whatever pleased my fane
I found the solitaire w»* ! ,uy father
had destined for ir;. aancee had bocome
loose, ho 1 carried it to a jeweler’s store
to lie repaiied. While there, two ladies
cnice in, one of whom was advanced in
years and the other young and extremely
beautiful. She examined a pair of ear
rings, but the price was too high, so she
reluctantly handed them buck. I quietly
paid the price demanded and begged her
to accept them.
“You are very kind,” sho said, blush
ing, "and these jewels are very lovely;
but were they still more beautiful >
could not accept them from a stranger.”
1 urged in vain, and again expressing
their thanks, they went away. To my
delight a few days later I met the ladies
walking in the Tuilleries. I hastened to
them “with earnest questions, requests
and assurances, and after a long conver
sation their cautiousness seemed grad
ually to give way to sympathy. I took
advantage of this fact to offer her tho
solitaire, and it was placed firmly on
her finger before sho could think of any
opposition.
“I am doing as great a wrong to listen
to you ns to accept this diamond,” said
•he, “hut you aro binding yourself to an
ungrateful girl, for 1 accept this against
my will.”
My happiness was to be rudely inter
rupted. for three days after this I sud
denly found that my money was reduced
to five louis. I thought the matter over
seriously, and finally decided to go to
Bordeaux. As I could not appear before
Mr. Peterson like a beggar, some brace
lets. also intended for my fiancee, came
in just right, though they brought me
only eighty lonis.
The journey to Bordeaux passed quick
ly enough, and Mr. Peterson welcomed
me warmly. In the course of our con
versation he spoke of a letter from my
father, and I started to offer an excuse
for my delay in arriving, but he would
not listen to it
•My youngest daughters are away
from home,” said he, “but if my eldest
does not suit you they shall be sent for.*
We drank to the health of my future
bride, and Mr. Peterson theu showed me
to my room.
“I was amazed when I saw Constance
the next inorniug. I could find not a de
fect anywhere. The build, the figure,
the complexion belonged to no country,
but to that of beauty; and the brown hair
which fell over her white neck in lux
uriant loeks. and the sparkling brown
eyes were the only signs which showed
her relationship to France. Was it so
wonderful, then, that two weeks after
try arrival i went to Mr. Peterson and
asked him for the hand of his daughter^
The old man led me to her, and placed
her in my arms.,
“That’a right," he cried. “Tomorrow,
Constance, I shall write to your sisters,
for they must lie home for the weddmg.”
Angelique, the second daughter, came
in a few days, but Victoria still remained
away. This delayed the marriage, and I
had sufficient opportunity to become ac
quainted with the two sisters in their
differences. In Angelique each woman
ly charm was on a smaller scale than had
been' apportioned to Constance, bat she
was somewhat cast down in her manner.
Gradually this apparent sadness left her
fmi only the ghost of it remained in the
charming body which nature Hi equip
ped with irresistible interest,/
We gradually became more intimate,
and i awarded my kisses and sighs to
my convenation to Angel
ique. As often as I saw the one I lost
my heart with love: as often asl listened
to the other my whole soul fled to the
Aarminy cuuiwtiwiik Each tune
it hung in the balance. Soon the scale
began alternately to sink and rise, and
again two weeks after my engagement

back, and yielded | There have, been hiuiKisu and sne-
ooly when I suggested that perhaps j ressf nl women lecturers on such subjects
AngeUqne might console a disappointed , ** literature, dress and kindred top-
| lover, and I thought that in a short time ics. bat It has remained for on? woman
—a young woman too—to discover au
entirely new field for her labors, and to
work It so successfully that she has mads
the subject of American history not only
a popular and intensely interesting one
among the cultivated women of many
cities and towns, but has actuaSy caused
it to become a serious study among so
ciety women of New York.
Miss Jane Meade Welch is a Buffalo
girl by birth and education. She comes
of good New England stock on both sides.
He? grandfather Meade was a celebrated
Congregational preacher of New Hamp
shire, her great-grandfather on the pa
ternal side having been Bishop Seabory,
of Connecticut.
In her sixteenth year Miss Welch en
tered Elmira college, but an almost fa
tal illness interrupted her college courts.
Recovering ber health after three yean
of invalidism she began journalistic
work on the Buffalo Courier, and was a
member of the editorial staff of that
paper for ten jssars, having been the first
woman in her native city to make a
reputation as a journalist.
] I should love her passionately, tf I were
anthririxed to do sol Thus the
wm Anally settled.
Angelique, however, did not receive
the news with tbe pleasure I had hoped
to aee, and from that hour she did her
bert to make me repent of my bargain.
1 regretted a thousand times that I had
changed an agreeable tester-in-law into
a cruel betrothed.
The unde from Rochelle, in whose
house AngeUqne had been viaftfng, came
with a young man who was mid to be a
cousin. AngeUqne embraced them both,
and my keen lover’s eye thought it saw
a feeling too tender for merely a cousin.
My patience was at an end when she
treated the cousin with great kindness,
while sho showed only stubbornness to
ward me.
“Merely to put you ,to the test, dr,"
she said, when I complained.
“That means. that yon cut me to the
quick to see if my heart still beats," I
cried in anger; “but I will soon find s
way to pot an end to it."
Highly enraged, I went to my room.
There I came across a letter of my
father’s, inscribed, "To the beloved
fiancee of my son." I thought these
loving words of a future father-in-law
would soothe her, so I took the letter to
her.
“It is not for me," she said, “for you
«lo not love me, bat as 1 take the place
of one more beloved, 1 will open the
letter."
“Beautiful! splendid!” she cried, when
she had read it. “Yon have a very
worthy father, and his goodness sur
prises me. He must know how gladly
girls adorn themselves, and brides most
of all. Will you not show me the
jewels?"
1 looked at her in terror, ami the real
ization of my thoughtlessness struck me
so forcibly that I could not speak a word.
“Well, you have not lost them?"
“My father must have forgotten
them,” I said at hast. “Will you let me
see the letter?"
The letter read: "The solitaire and the
bra^..‘._i. , — , - i "h tnv son will deliver to
yon with this letter”
1 stood as if annihilated, and cursed in
my heart a thou~»u.l the hour in
which I entered Mr. Peu-.^;a'c h“"“»

Victoria arrived late one evening, and
the impatient father set the weddings for
both daughters for tho next day.
In the morning D’Argenet came, em
braced tne as his brother-in-law, and led
me into the room where the marriage
was to take place. The father, the two
sisters, the uncle and the cousin were
there besides the priest. Victoria was
absent. Soon two ladies entered the
room, and 1 was greatly astonished
when, as the reader has already guessed,
I recognized in them the aunt of Paris
und her beautiful niece.
I could contain myself no longer. I
flew away from the table to Victoria
and seized her hand, which she gave tne,
blushing deeply. /
“Is it possible?” said I. “I have no
claims upon your forgiveness but the
love which you first taught me to
know.”
“I atn my own no longer," she replied
with a smile, as she displayed the
jewels, “I bear the purchase money
upon tny hand.”
“Come, cousin,” 6aid Angelique,
“since my bridegroom has deserted me,
let us go through the ceremony together.
He may do What he wishes.”
My embaantesment was over. -1 looked
at the father-inquiringly, but he could
not speak from agitation. He placed
our hands together and led us to the
other coupler The priest then began
without waiting for command, and in
ten minutes the three sisters became
three wives.
Victoria, who was with the aunt in
Paris, learned what news had been re
ceived from the German bridegroom,
and she now knew how to explain the
sudden disappearance of Lord Johns-
bnry, whom, contrary to the promise she
had given her father, she had learned to
'ova. She wrote quickly tc her sister
Angelique, who understood everything
and drew up a plan for my punishment.
Four weeks flew by in this delightful
family gathering, which seemed like four
days. When the time came for separa
tion I begged my father-in-law for his
blessing.
“I Lave no blessing for you except
what you yourself have taken,” said he.
“You are taking from me my dearest
daughter, bat still I thank yon, for I
first, through you, beoame aa entirely
happy father.”—Adapted from the Ger
man by William Dana Orcutt for Boston
Globe.
A Drastic Remedy.
An amusing case has just been tried
at Kasan, in Russia. A woman of the
name of Outchakine was summoned be
fore the judge on the charge of beating
a cousin of hers, named Kniazef. But
tbe accused had a complete answer to
the indictment.
“My cousin gave me leave in fhe pres
ence of witnesses,” she said to the judge,
“to trounce him well if ever be broke
the solemn promise he gave me at
church, to give up smoking altogether.”
Kniazef could not deny this. His
austere relative had come upon him un-
I awares when enwreathed in a cloud of
smoke. The judge acquitted the pris
oner, but admonished-her not to lay OS
so hard in the future.—L’Autorite,

From childhood she had a passionate
love for history, particularly for that of,
her^own country. Her private library is
extensive, and' last autnrru sue hau i.L~
privilege of making special studies .in
John FiskeVlibrary in Cambridge.
Having lectured annually at Cbautau-
o: »„,t o- . ..yh schools as Ogontz and,
Mrs. Sylvanus Reed’s, Miss Welch de
cided to give the New York public a
taste of her quality, and at the sugges
tion of her friend, Mrs. Grover Cleve
land, she went to New York, engaged
the aristocratic Berkeley Lyceum thea
ter for a course of lectures on American •
history, and succeeded in interesting!
some of the foremost women in New
York society in her venture. Some of.
her subjects in this course were “The.
Making of thv Constitution,” “The War
of 1812,” “Alexander Hamilton." "An
drew Jack;.in and John Adams.” and
“The Capture of a Commonwealth.''
She speaks entirely vrithout notes, and
her memory for dates, facts and figures
seems phenomenal.
Miss Welch is very attractive person
ally; she has a refined and winning
manner, a spirited appearance and an
agreeable voice. Her delivery is easy
and fluent, and the literary style of her
discourse charming. She is always ready
to answer any questions after a lecture,
and her replies are invariably swift and
complete. The New York lectures were
successful beyond her hopes, and when
the course was finished a series of sup
plementary lectures followed at the
houses of Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. S. J. Col
gate, Miss Amy Townsend and other
ladies who banded themselves into an
association called the Half-Hour club, as
its members are required to read one-
halt hour daily upon American history.
Among the ladies belonging to this club
are Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt, Mrs. Ros-
coe Conkling, Mrs. Pierrepont Edwards,
Mrs. Daniel S. Lament, Mrs. William C.
Whitney, Mrs. Gouvemeur Morris and-
Mrs. Richard Watson Gilder.

Worse Th an "th ^Fifteen Puzzle,
In tbe lights of the Nineteenth cen
tury it sounds queerly lo read of the
practices of tbe anscient physician. We
are told that in the fifth century Sere-
pus, a celebrated doctor, invented
mystic form of letters called Abracada
bra, believed to be possessed of magical
import, whereby they exercised won
derful healing powers wben used
permit their free scope. In tbe Six
teenth century one physician claims to
have cured two hundred esses of ague
by banging tbe words about the necks
of patients; while another claimed to
cure toothache by its use, though the
patieut were ten miles off. In contrast
to this, let’s look at the most wonderful
remedy recent medical research has
placed in the bands of suffering hu-
