Mv Lady has been very successful, | She has, in fact, only one danchter left upon her hands. And Maggie. after Leing, indeed, unnecessarily troublesome upon the peint, is now engaged to the perfectly eligible son of an old love o. uy Lady's own.
‘Very romantic, isn’t it?” says my lady. Sae puts up a double barrelled eyeglass to look at the young people, who are standing side by side, and ap- pear bored.
Someone says that it is quite delici- ously so.
“And romance is getting so uncom- mon, too,” adds my lady, with a rich My Lady has, indeed, been able io squeeze no sort of romance into tLe fornier matrimonial arrangements sue hes imade. Romance is usually so in- efizible, ene finds. ~
My Lady and Sir George, who is the old love, find themselves alone pre sently.
**Not the conservatory, for Heaven's sake |” says Sir George, who has much rheumatism and only a little sentiment. And they take two deep arm chairs in 4D ante 100m.
‘*You have theories upon heredity, 1 see,” says Sir George. Sir George is spoken of by his youthful acquatintas.. usasardonic old beast. 1n the fifties, after the manner of that period, my Lady used frequently to shake he: coquettish head at him, and address him as a dreadful, shocking, sarcastic crea ture.
‘One has theories npon everything,” she answers. ‘‘It is expected of one. And theories are so cheap, But I don't know that I have ever gone in for heredity.”
‘No?’ says Sir George. ‘‘It seems to mine you have a particularly complex theory on the subject. A young lady has a first love. He isineligible. Ones loves always are, The young lady mar ries som 0 eelse. She has a daughter She expects, of course she has a right to expect, that the daughter should fall in love with the son of ner old love. The case sounds 2 little confusing as I have stated it. It will, I assure you, work out cleariy on paper.”
‘‘What are you driving at?’ says my Lady. lf her complexion admitted of chauges, it might be at this moment a shade paler than before. *‘Do you mean tuat you don’t wish your boy to marry Maggie?’
“L wish it before all things in the world,” answers sir George.
‘Then what do you mean?” ‘says my Lady, with impatience.
‘| think I mean,” says Sir George. with that evenness of tone which be- trays nothing, ‘‘that it is just possible Jack and Maggie may not want to marry each other. That Jack agrees to marry Maggie becduse it is expedient ard he has not yet seen anyone he likes better. And that Maggie agrees to marry Jack because she is highly sus ceptible to—shall we say home infiu- ence?—aad because the person she does like better, won't do.”
‘‘Are you soromantic?” says my Lady, With a rising temper and a neat sar casm, ‘‘as to believe in love ina cottage, and the wisdom of an ignorant giri’s first fancy.
‘My dear Maria,” answers Sir George, “lam so oll us to have few beliefs of any description left to me. Love matches are notoriously miserable. The lovers have but one cause to cougratu- late themselves. ‘They are wretched in their own way.”
‘‘Which you consider better than be ing happy in anyone else's?”
bir George bows an assent and looks at my Lady with deep eyes.
“You propose, then,” and my Lady’s gloved hand trembles a little, ‘‘that 1 go to Mageie aud say to her, ‘Marry the penniless tvva lu your ignorant fancies’; and that rou should, in the highest moral tone at your command, impress upon your son the wickedness of the expedient.”
“You put it neatly,” says Sir George, ‘that is precisely what I do mean.”’
There is a short silence. In the lamp- light these two look at each other curi- casly. ‘ihrough the open door which leads io tue ballvoom they catch a Glimpse vs Maggie, with a momentary light and colo. va her face, dancing wita Inexpedience.
“What has brought you to such a state of feelings?’ asks my Lady it tones which are not perfectly steady.
*‘Heaven knows,” says Sir George, ‘‘! do not. Unless it be that Maggie re minds me of some woman I once knew and know no longer. I remember that woman at twenty, forced by the cursed ambition of her relatives into a worldly mairage. Irememlxr her simple and sorrowtul and unworidly and good. 1 am not romantic—heaven forbid—but I can see, to night, asif it had all hap- pened yesterday, the tears in her pretiy eyes and the droop about her mouth. She is hard and sensible enough now It is from such an ending I would save her daughter.”
My Lady’s eyelashes are wet and her voice broken. ‘Ah!’ she says, ‘‘that is all very well, but how can we tell that we should have been happy? How can we tell?”
“We cannot,” he answers in his old manner. “it is probable we should have quarrelled. An inability to pay the importunate and necessary butcher is always ruffling to the temper. We should have had to start life out of South Kensington, which is in itself a tragedy. You would have had to employ a cheap dressmaker, which [ am told is sufficent to blight any woman's happiness. We should have grumbled of course. That is a satisfaction which is denied to no one. But we should have chosen our own fashion of being miserable. Sup pose we accord this privilege to our children.”
“It is horribly ridiculous and unprac- tical and bourgeois,” begins my Lady.
‘And moral” adds Sir George, ‘‘and we are none of those things. Do you see Maggie over there with the Expedi- ent? They look a little dull. They have been together two interminable conse cutive dances I believe, which accounts forit. Yet I have been told that people frequently fall in love with each other after marriage when they are together eternally. What do you think?’
“I think,” says my Lady very low, “that Iam going to make a fool of my- self.”
And Sir George takes her hand and raises it to his lips.—Black and White.

Cooking Water.
One of the secrets of palatable food ix knowing how tocook water. The secret is to put fresh filtered water into a clea kettle already warm, to let it boil quickly and to use it the instant it is boiled. ‘Ii let it steam and simmer means to have x combination uf lime, iron and dregs in the kettle and allthe gooi water evapor ated into air.
It is surprising that many housekeepers, otherwise neat and particular, seem t think that a kettle will stay clean without active measures on their part. The mer fact that nothing but water is boiled in it does not guarantee it against the need of scouring. It willsoon become coated wit! a rusty-looking layer of slime, unless i receives the same care as ,other cooking utensils. Food cooked with water is not properly boiled or which is boiled i) a kettle coated with dregs, has not th: same flavor that properly cooked food has. Moreover, it is dangerous to health,

Big Families in Quebec.
It was only five years ago that the Pro vince of Quebec passed a law providing that 100 acres of publie lands should »b given to every father of «a family who had twelve children living, issue of a lawfu marriage, and since then no less than 1,74 fathers of twelve or more children hav: complied with the ccnditions of the act and received the State bounty of 10) acres. How the size of families up in Quebee com pares with those of Massachusetts may t« seen by reference to the last census figur: of this State, which make the nuimber « families having twelve or more living ciiil dren 375, and the population of tle Pr vince of Quebec is considerabiy iess tia that of Massachusetts. It is quite ent that the Quebec law is accomplishin its purpose of giving marks of conside1 ation for fruitfulness in the sacred bonds of matrimony. —Boston Herald.

Average Life of Physicians,
One of the most curious statistical re cords that has been compiled this century is that by Dr. Saizmanu, of Essling, Wur temburg, on the average duration of iif among physicians. He found, on goi:y over the ancient records of the kingdom, that in the sixteenth century the average duration of life among that class was but 36.5 years; in the seventeenth century, 45.8; in the eighteenth, 49.8, and at tlic present time they reash the favorable ave of 56.7. It appears from the foot notes i the above that this very great increase i: longevity is due to the disappearance of the ‘‘black pest,” the introduction of vac cination and the great diminution in the namber of typhus epidemics, three classes of diseases which formerly decimated the medical practitioners .
