Modern science is beginning tc throw all tbe talcs of Mnnobauaen in¬ to the shade.

The jnanling bar rallied along throngh tho crooke.l streets, and turned i'jto a wide, smooth avenue, whoso hawthorn hedges wero whlto with blossom?, and whoso wayside trees covered it witb n cool, deep shade; then back again into Ihe Crooked streets, where a detaobmeut of soldiers passed them. "Look!" cried Emily with girlish enthusiasm, "there are eome Highlanders I"
A baud came next, followeil by sev¬ eral carriages, while r uoisy rabble of hooting, barefoot childi-eU hnd bois¬ terous men and Women Mrap;gl«ti iftcr.
"What is the matter?" ehe asked bl tbo driver, who had stopped his horse to let the processiob pass.
"It's O'Brien, miss," ho explainol, "Ho 11 be after Kpnkin' iu the park, the day, nud they're fentful av a riot, miss,"
Tbe procesciuu was a long one, and ihey watted several minutes for it to pas.i. JnBt as tbey started on again, Emily, happening to loak across the street, saw a mau, evidently a toariit, hastily shutting np a small camera.
"Auntio," she almost gasped, "I kclually believe .that man has been liking a photograph of ns I"
Miss Briggs looked qniekly, Imt tbey had turuod a corner, nud he was out of sight. "Wo'l, it can't bo helped," she said laughingly, bnt witb au indignant pink flaabing up iuto her cheeks. "It serves us right for making a spectacle of ourselves by getting on to such nn ontlandieh corveynnce."
On tho following day, whilo Misa Briggs sat alone in Ihe parlor ot the Imperial Ilolel, busily engaged with ber jonrnal, Emily entered, her hat awry and her face glowingi
"Look!" she cried breathlessly. "Hero is a sketch 1 mnde this after- nooUi auntie. I did it iu sepia. And oh, I'vo had encb un interesting ex- poricnca I We all went up to Shan- don churchyard, and old Mr. Lumb took me up in the tuwer to read thc inscription on tba belts.. Wheu wo came down again, yon couldn't guess who waa standing in Iho obnrcbyard, by Father Front's tomb,"
Miss Briggs held the sketch olT at arm's length, surveying it critically, and bhook her head.
"Well, it was that man who took onr picture yesterday, As soon as he saw mo, he came directly towards mo. He took olT his bat with as friendly a smile as if wc liad nlw.iys kuowu each otber, and said, Tarilon rao, miss, are yon uot tbe yonng lady whom I saw yesterday ou a jaunting car while tho procession was crossing the bridge ?' I was Bo'amazed I did not know whai to say, nnd he began at ouoo to apolo¬ gize and explain. Uc faid ho was out wilh his camera. Inking pictures of interesting typos of Irish character, and was r.tlrncted by onr coachman's faco. IIo paid uc attentiou to ns un¬ til wc were driving away. Then ho saw mo, but did not notice you par¬ ticularly. Whilo he was developing iho picture, that afternoon, he was al¬ most btnrtled, bo told me, as your fca- ti:rcs grndually appeared on tbo plate. He mill: 'They bear sneh a striking re- ecniblanco to one I knew years ago. V>11 yoa allow me lo ask i' Ibe laly wilh you won n Miss Briggs? Miss Csroliae Briggii''"
Emily panned to uote Ibo effect of her wordc, nud Miss Briggs looked up wilh lively intcr'.'it depicted ou every feature.
"Oo on I' sli'i demanded. "Just then ?Ir. I.umb cnmo hurry¬ ing up nud slnppcd him ou tbo bock, and said, 'Hullo, Fritzio, old boy ! Is it really ynn.'' It must havo been 'Friizio, old lioy,'for they began talk¬ ing about old times, and forgot my existence ever i-o long. Then Mr. Lumb iutrodncod him—Howe, or Fuwcr, cr sc-io such name. He's ¦topping at uur I otel, nn.l ia Roing lo ;oin our piirly till we reach Uelfaet," F.mily p.iuscd tu observe tbe effect. Miss I'lriggs iipi'nt'l lier uioulhas if to fay soi.ietbiug, gave a little gasp nnd closed it agsKi.
"It's  FrcJoiick   Powc!!!"   sho   de-
ttarUd   ont   to   radical Opinions.    Emily tried  iuviiiu cxploreihe
to persuade her aunt that tbe old sergo waa too unbecoming for further use¬ fulness. Every morning tbe put it on witb Ihe grim sutisraclion of carrying her point, and looking her worst.
The days went by too fast in the old town. Night and moruiug tnd noon, tbey listened to tbe chiming ot tbe bells ih Ihe ivy grown Sbandon tower, aud then it wnr uight aud moruiug aud noon ajaiu. Still tho little party lin¬ gered.
One daVi after Inncbi they started out to mako a farewell visit to Blarney Castloi Dr. Powell and Emily gaily led the way on a jaunting Bar, Sev¬ eral of ihe party followed on horse¬ back, and the rear was brought up by a light wagonette. Miss Briggs rodo in tbis, net being an excellent horse¬ woman, and having a mortal antipathy to jannting car>i.
It waa a drive none of them oonld ever forget. But by the timo they had reached the castle, the sunshino hnd faded out, the landscape was gray and blurred, and tbo rain began to pour iu torrentr. There was nothing to do bnt sit down and wait for it to stop, but tbey bad grown accustomed to this peculiarity of tbe weather in Ire- laud.
Ao old woman came to ihe door, begging. They tolled her in wilh a shilling, and she entertained (hem wilh graesome tales of tho banshees nnd witches tbat Inhabit the bat haunted ruins of Blarney at night. The doctor handed Emily a pencil nnd a leaf torn from his memorandum book, and sho bngan to sketch the old peas¬ ant, wilh quick, effective strokes. Miss Briggs sat back iu a dim corner, listen¬ ing Darernlly, for tbe woman's brogue was Almost unintelligible to her. Twice she glanced np, to find Dr, Fowell looking at her.
Presently in a pause of Ihe story telliug, he walked over and stood be¬ side her, "What does this remind you of, Caroline?" ho'asked abruptly,
".Vothing," she answered.   "Why?"
"It reminds me of a gypsy camp we visited one time. Y'ou have not for¬ gotten It, I hope. It was tho laet day of Augnst, sixteen years ago. The scene comes back to me very plainly. Au old hag told onr fortunes. Some¬ how, yon Took jnst as vou did thon."
He Walked over to Emily again. Miss Briggs drew back a little farther iuto the dim corner, and listened no more to tbo legends of Blarney. Sho heard, instead, Iho crackling of a camp fire, tbe stamping of horses tied iu the background, the whining tones of tbe old gypsy who protended to look into tbo future, when in reality she had ouly to look into tho faces be Tore her to guess their fate. Then she heard tho laughter of the yonng folks rambling slowly along in tbe moonlight behind tbem. 'Iheu the low, earnest voico of thu one boeide ber—no, sbe would not listen ! Sho would not recall a single word. Tho old love had lain buried deeply too loug for its ghost 16 trouble her now. Sbe turned resolutely to Ihe old wom' no, nlthongh sho couldn't help romem- beriiig, DOW and tben,that he had said sbo looked juntnsshe did that night— and tbat nigbt he had called her beautifni.
"I know that isn't lot" she kept telliug herself, to quiet the littlo thrill «f pleased vanity. "He's got an axe to grind. He wants me to nse my in¬ fluence with Emily."
It was nearly dark when the rain Anally stopped, and they started back to tbe hotel, Tbere wasa sbifling of seats. The wngonclte led the way, followed by those on horses, and when Miss Briggr came through tbe gate. Dr. Powell was waiting to help her on to the junotiug cir.
They drove along iu silence some time, beforo the doctor remarked nn- eusily, "Ihe drivers have been drink¬ ing. I hope they'll uot got us into trouble."
"I have nevir beon in any kind of an nccideut," auswored Miss llriggs. "1 bavo always thought I should like to be, just for tbe sensation."
For a  short  distanou  thev   entor-
when you wero the sweetheart of my boyhood,"
lio slipped his arm around her, nnd felt her shaking with suppressed sobs, "Why, what's the matter?" ho asked.
"J dot't know," sho answered. For Miss Briggs had met with an experi¬ ence sho could not fathom. Tho ten¬ der undercurrents of her natnre, frozen so long that sho doubted their exist¬ ences, molted as in a February thaw, and found vent in tears.
At tho hotol entrance they fonnd Iho drunken driver awaiting them, hat in hand, "I'm sorry to bo troublin' yez, torr, but ther's tho two shillin' sixpence for tho journey out, and two shillin' sixpence for tho journey back, .Ku' tho same sbud be morn, for it broke me vAbicle an' lamed me baste."
Tbo doctor smiled down into the fnco beside him, where his fond eyes saw blooming again tbe beauty of girl¬ hood, and said, "The rascal knows the accident was all hia own fault, bnt it it had not been for bim, I might never havo found you as I did, on a jannting car."
Ue dropped a shower of silver pieces into tho outstretched band.
"•Sburo an' yu're fit tor a prince, eorr !" cried the mau, delighted al tho unexpootod genero.sity, and shrewdly guessing its cause. "Good luck to ye an' the swate leddy!"
And as they walked on down the corridor, hia voice followed them, in¬ voking the blessing of all tho saints in his calendar.—The Pnritau,

When told her nsmo. the judge recalled tbat a short timo l«fore hu bad sentenced a womau to jail for sixty days for drunkenness aud told the child so.

WOMEN   I..V\VVER3   IN   CAN.4DA.
AVomcn in Canada will soon practice law ns barristers. Tbo Ontario Inw fchool somo time ngo passed rules to Ibis effect, with Ihe followiug regula¬ tions ns to dress: Thoy mnst bo bare¬ headed, wear black gowns over n black Iress and wbite collars and cuffs.
¦mp. ciins wosics rATntoT^ Tho women of the better class in Cnba aro much more ordeit iu their sympathy witb the revolntion than the men, aud a gentleman who has rocent¬ ly spont severul weeks in Havana says tbero is scarcely a Cuban woman who is not seriously contributing to tho success of tbo cause, although hor hnsband may be indiffeiently support¬ ing tho Kpaniah antboritios. Many young men havo boen driven into tbo insurgent ranks by their sisters and sweethearts. It is a common thing for an able-bodied yonng man to re¬ ceive a woman's chemise with a snrcns- tio note saying, "You should wear tbis as long a.s yon remain at homo aud ro- fuBO to fight for Cuba libre."

Tho Queen always had a liking for gay colors, aod a lady wbo was pre¬ sented to her uu her first visit to Dca- side gives tbo following interesting account of tho Queen's dress: Her Majesty wore a bright blue silk dress With a great nambor of ilounoes of varying depths, eaoh edged with a narrow black velvet over a not incon¬ siderable crinoline; i^bove this very brilliant garment she wore a Boyal Stusft tartan shawl in all its rainbow colors, a wbito ohip bonnet trimmed with pink roses nud blue ribbon bows; a white veil and pale lemou-colorod gloves completod what could hardly be called a quiet costume. Sho carried in her hand n small bluo parasol with n thick silk fringe, of the same shade and with a white ivory handle and stalk,—Womnn,

We are constantly hearing women express tho belief that thoy would be quite free from strain in the matter of dress if they oould always bo as sure of the proper thiug to wear as a mau. With a mau, six o'clock'meaus a dress Euit or a Tuxedo. As a matter of fact, a woman moy be equally free from doubt npon tho subject. If sbo chooses, sbo cnn lay elown a safe law unto her¬ self. Six o'clock mny nlways mean evening dress to ber, whon sbo is cer¬ tain that sho is not going to touch shonlders with tbo public. She dis¬ criminates betweeu n bigh and a low necked gowu as a mau betwoeu bis fnll dress suit and his Tuxedo. No well droFscd woman appeara nt the theatre with her shoulders uncovered, but sbo may put on a low necked gown for tbo most informal dinner nt a private house, prividod tho gown is not too elaborate.
Tbo fashion mngaziues hnve done much to give erroneous ideas of thc manner in which New York womeu dices npou certain occaaions. Tbe well dressed woman in tho city usually confines herself to throe well defined lines of dress. Thoso aro the strictly simple tailor mado dross for morning nnd street wear, the moro extensively trimmod gowu for tbe theatre nnd iuformal dinners, nnd tbe regulation evening appnrel. With four gowns eaoh winter, if sho bo iu modest cir- cnmstaucos, a woman may go any¬ where, ami yet be suro that she is always appropriUely and becomingly attired. She is tbe wise womau who, patting all of her outlay upon these four diesses, has thum well and rightly mnde, for she neod give herself aa litllo concern abont her clothes as a man,—Tho Puritan.

The shirt waist is back again. That moans happiness to every woman Ihat draws the breath of life. Tbero is nothing iu tbo world tbat a woman dotes on moro tbau tho iucvilablo sbirt waist. Ask any one ot tbem what nhe thinka of sbirt waists. In¬ variably she will answer: ".Shirt waists? Why, I livo in them whcu the season permits."
