the sum of *115 each and all costs. I tion to friends, was perfect. The
with 10 per cent interes: from date entire company is far above the
I of judgment: C. H. J argo j average and deseive a splendid
payment of
prominent society man between
the pauses of a charming musicale.
"It you never did, don't. I have.
Living through the agony I never
intend to subject myself to similar
insult." In a lecture I have not
heard, Julia Ward Howe asks the
qiestion, "Is polite society po-
lite!" How she answers her own
question I can readily imagine,
judging from my own varied ob-
servation. The reason for an in-
excusable rudeness on the part of
those who shonld have the best
manners, is an inordinate egotism
that makes its victims bad listen-
ers. They are incapable of con-
tinuity of thought except on per-
sonal matters. Whatever opin-
ion their maids and valets may
privately entertain of them, these
social fungi are heroes and heroines
to themselves. They brook no
rival, and when that heavenly
maid, music, dares to obtrude her-
self aud to command silence, so-
cial fungi resent the infliction by
lifting their voice to heaven in the
jargon of the period.
What shall be done? Shall good
music be abolished in society, or
shall a new code of etiquette be
invented! How would it do for
those who give musicales to divide
their reception hours thus, on the
cards of invitation?
"Music from 9 to half past ten
o'clock. Conversation from half
past ten o'clock until morning."
By this arrangement, people
who hate music and people who
can't hold their tongues would
know when to appear; lovers of
music could enjoy themselves to
their hearts' content and every-
body would be satisfied. Of course
attendants on music would be
much less numerous than on chat-
ter, but as a silent audience of one
is preferable to a boisterous mob,
no performer would object to this
division. As for the hostess, re-
lief from the torture of trying to
keep the noisy contingent quiet
with an outward smile and an in-
ward anathema, would in itself
prolong life and make private
musicales entertaining even to
those who pay for them.
Tne suggestion is worth consid-
ering, but I have no hope of see-
ing it carried out.—Kate Field's

The Simpletons, a new novel by
Thomas Hardy, will be begun in
the December number, 1894, and
continued to November, 1895.
Whoever may be one's favorite
among English novelists, it will be
conceded by all critics that Thomas
Hardy stands foremost as a master
artist in fiction, and the Simple-
tons may be expected to arouse
enthusiasm not inferior in degree
to that which has marked Trilby
—the most successful story of the
year. Another leading feature
will be the Personal Recollections
of Joan of Arc, by the Sieur Louis
de Conte, Her Page and Secretary,
under which guise the most popu-
lar of living American magazine
writers will present the story of
the Maid of Orleans. In the Janu-
ary number will appear a pro-
fusely illustrated paper on Charles-
ton and the Carolinas, the first of
a series of southern papers.
Northern Africa is attracting
more attention than any other
time since it was the seat of em-
pires. The next volume of Har-
per's magazine will contain four
illustrated articles on this region,
and three of them will depict the
present life there. Julian Ralph
will prepare for the magazine a
series of eight stories, depicting
typical phases of Chinese life and
manners. Besides the long stories,
there will begin in the January
number the first chapters of a
three-part novelette, by Richaro
Harding Davis—the longest work
yet attempted by this writer. Com-
pete short stories by popular
writers will continue to be a
feature of the magazine.

The Facts in the Case.
The incompetency of man to
please everybody is forcibly
brought to notice in the case of
Sam Smith, now in jail, and his
mistress, Eva Lowe, who died last
night about midnight.
In her delirium of the past few
days she constantly called for
Smith. Requests were poured into
the marshal's office imploring
Chief Stowe to allow Smith to visit
her.
A more humane and gentlemanly
officer than Mr. Stowe does not
live. Smith was allowed the priv-
ilege under guard of visiting the
woman, and has done so for the
past three days and nights, and
was present at her bedside when
she died. The affection which she
manifested, though fallen she may
have t>een, when Smith was by
her side, showed that there still
remained one thread of love. Un
able to clasp him in her embrace,
he gently placed her arm around
his neck, and her troubled heart
was calmed.
Now this act of humanity on the
part of the officers nas bronght
forth censure from many. We
wish to say on behalf of the offi-
cers that Smith was under guard,
and a safe one, and the expense of
said guard was paid by Smith him-
self, therefore the government was
at no extra expense.
Take the case borne to your-
selves, ye who protest, and look
at it from your own standpoint,
and say if you can, that in the in-
terest of humanity and Christianity
the dying request of a human be-
ing, no matter bow depraved,
should be ignored.
The Ardmoreite thinks the offi-
cers done nobly and well, and is
satisfied that this act on their part
will meet with the hearty approval
of all good and considerate people.
It may be well to state that it was
with no regard and sympathy held
for Smith, but simply for the dy-
ing woman that the officers ex-
tended this act of kindness —Ard-
moreite.

your blood, clear your complexion,
