Lanark, a lady of five-and-forty, and the mother of three grown-np daughtera, lay back in her easy diair and gently waved her fan. Kate, the youngest of the three fanghters, had jnst risen from the pianofore, where she bad been showing her parents how mnch she had improved npon her last coarse. She was nineteen years of age, and her form was of the pure female type â€" not robost, nor yet fairy-like, bnt after the models which the old Greeks used to adopt when they wished to scnlptnre an Ariadne or a Euphrosyne. Touching her faceâ€" it was certainly a good- looking face. To call such a face pretty wonld Bonnd tame and flat. Mrs. Lanark thought Isabel and Bertha were both prettier than Kate, while Mr. Lanark was of a different opinion. How- ever, npon one point there was no dispute. The Judge would often say " Well, my little Kate looks good, any- how," and nobody ever disputed bin. Isabel and Bertha were the other two, twenty-one and twenty-three. They had graduated at a very fuhionabie school, and were deemed very highly accomplished; and, moreover, they were called beautiful. Judge Lanark was the father of these girls. He was a man of means, though not of large wealth. He had been a successful lawyer, and was now on 'ihe Bench his social position was of the highest. Govern- ors had beea among his clients, and senators looked to him for counsel and assistance. The Judge had reared two sons, and had sent them forth to active, useful life but his daughters he had left to his wife. " Of course," Mrs. Lanark, continued, after Kate had taken a seat near her father, " yon do not, play as well as your eisters, but it will come to you by practice. I think I may say that your necessary list of accomplishments is fulL" " Not quite," said Kate, with a nod and a smile. " There is one more accomplish- ment which I am determined to add to my list. I longed fc" !♦â- ' many times when I was at school, and I am led to long for it at many of the places where I am forced to visit. I must learn to cook." " To what " exclaimed Mrs. Lanark. " To cook 1" echoed Isabel and Bertha ia concert. "Ay," added Kate. "I shall not con sider my womanly accomplishments com- plete until I can, with my own hands, make a loaf of wheaten bread fit to set before .father." The Judge caught Kate by the hand, and Cried " Good " Isabel and Bertha smiled derisively. Their looks implied that they considered the thing ridiculous. Mrs. lAnark looked up in surprise and deprecation. It seemed a reflection on her educational care for her daughters, Kate saw the look, and she speedily add- ed " I do noO mean a loaf of such soggy stufi' as some of our friends make of cream of tartar and saleratns â€" nor yet a loaf of the phtty stuff that comes to us from the baker's â€" but I mean a loaf of such bread as my mother used to make when I was a little child." Mrs. Lanark was mollified, but not con- verted. " Ah, Kate, times have changed since I was young." " For the worse," muttered the Judge. But his wife did not notice him. She went on ' " You had better leave the making of bread to the help in the kitchen. If ever yon have a home of your own I trust you will have enough else to occupy your time without doing the work of your servants. " " If ever I have a home of my own," suid Kate with mild decision, " I am determined that I will be able to superintend every part of it. My servant shall not be my mistress. No servant employed in my household shall be able to ' lool^.down' upon me. I shall not be the slavvr^or the victim of my cook." " Good," cried the Judge again. " Go at it, Kate, and I will furnish the material. Waste a dozen bdrrels of flour if necessary â€" only bring me a grand good loaf of your own making and baking in the end." Mrs. Lanark stiU thought it foolish and Isabel and Bertha characterised it as very childbh and whimsical. They fancied that it smacked of the nursery^and the play room. But Kate was in earnest, and as her father backed her np, she carried the day and gained the freedom of the kitchen, where the servants soon came to love and respect her. The following winter Isabel and Bertha spent in the city. Kate remained at home, because hsr mother could not well spare them all. During their visit to the great metropolis the 'elder sisters made many friends* and formed very pleasant associations. Among others they met with Roland Archworth, a young banker, whose father had been Jadge Lanark's classmate and chum in college, xn their letters home they informed their father of the fact, and the Judge remember- ing the elder Archworth with treasured love and esteem, and knowing the son to be the occupant of an exalted position in society, -invited the young man to visit him at his country home. And thus it happened that when the sum- mer came Roland Archworth came up to the Lanarks' pleasant home. He was a yonne man of five and twenty, and was, to use we expression of one who knew him well, " every inch a man." He had inher- ited a fortune from his father, and he was now a partner in the house which his father had founded. There waa no agiecalation in the baaing which he followed, with a bank- ing capital folly eqnaLto the groatest pooai- ble emergency, and itiWealtb waa conatant- ly increaaing.

" I will take the reina until the cook geta welL" " But for mercy'a ai^e," implored Taabell "dont let Mr. Archworth know it 1 He belongs to a aphere which wonld be shocked by such groaa impropriety. He wonld look upon us as belonging to the oanaille." Bnt there waa no help for it, and Kate went into the kitchen and took command of the forces in that quarter. " WUl yon have some of this cake^Mr. Archworth?" asked Mrs. Lanark, Ifl^g the silver basket of frosted sweeties. " No," replied the visitor with a smile. " If yon will allow me to exercise my own whim yon will please me. This plain bread is a luxury such as I do not often meet. It takes me back to my boyhood's days. I have not eaten such »ince I ate the bread which my own mother made. If ever I keep house for myself, I think I shall ask you to send mie your cook." For the life of them they could not help the betrayal of emotion; Poor Kate, who sat exactly opposite the speaker, blushed until it seemed as though all her blood in her body was rushing into her face while Isabel and Bertha trembled as they might have trembled upon the verge of a frightful precipice. The Judge laughed outright. " You get' our cook into your house, and you'd find you'd got a Tartar, my boy," he said. And then to turn the subject he added "I remember your mother very well, Roland, and have eaten her bread." And thus the conversation softened down into the poetry of other days. Touching Roland's associations with Lan- ark's daughters, he seemed to enjoy the so- ciety of them all. If he seemed more eager to talk to one than to another it was with Kate, not, perhaps, because he found her more attractive, but because she kept her- self hidden away from him so much. During the brief interviews that had been ' permitted him he had found her highly ac- complished, but he thought he detected an under-current of plain, practical, common- sense which had not appeared in the others ' And once when h' had been speaking of his mother, he had noticed Kate's eyes exow moist with svmpathetic light, while her sis- ters only smiled in their sweet pleasant way. He fancied that through the gather- ing moisture of those deep blue eyes he had •! looked down iato a warm and tender heart ' â€" a heart true and leliable. • One bright morning Roland Archworth i arose with the sun, and walked out into the ' garden. By and by he came round by the porch, and entered the kitchea and asked for a drink of milk â€" for he had seen the gardener just bringing a brimming pail from the stable. He went in and saw Kate Lanark at the moulding board, her white arms bear to the shoulders, kneading a snowy pile of dough. I She did not see him at firsts and he had a I moment for thought â€"and in that moment 1 the truth flashed upon him. Here was the cook he had declared he would have in his own house if he could get her. And he could now understand the blushing of the maiden, and the laughing rejoinder of the j Judge. And^ he remembered now of having â-  overheard Mrs. Lanark speaking with a member of her family about the sickness of her cock â€" how unfortunate it was, and so on. With a clear sense and quick comprehen- sion, aided by keen powers of analysis and reason, Roland read the whole story. He had come too far to retreat, and he pushed boldly on. " Ah, good morning, Miss Lanark. Par- don my intrusion, bnt I saw the milk 'pail come in, and I could not refist the tempta- tion. Oh the old, old days I shall never forget their joys, and I trust I may never outlive them. It was my boyhood's delight to take from my inother's hand the cup warm from the new milking. This is the first opportunity that has presented itself for long, long years. I could not let it slip. You will pardon me, I know." At first K^te had been startled terribly, but when she met the supplicant's warm and radiant look, and the music of the old home love fell upon her ear, and when she saw as by inatinot that the whole aoaae wm pIoM- Mtt to him, ahe felt her hoHrt ^^nd jvith gleeful Manruce and toaching WmM t ^Bot dough from her arma, ahe wei^jMat vUed • bowl with new milk iMd Von#t tt*o ^dittT " I trnat," ahe aaid with • beunlBg an^ " that tiieduat of toil upon my huidawfll not rsnder the ofFerins leaa accepUble." No matter what Bolaad said. He said aomething, and then draiik the milk. He evidently longed to linger in the kitchen, but propriety f orlxade, and with more of his real feelings in hia looka than in hia speed, h£ retired. ' " A few da^ thereafter .the young banker sought the Judge in his study, and aaid, aa he took a aeat, that he had come on impor- tamt business. "I have ooiae," be went on, " to ask of yon that I may seek to gain the hand o^ jont daughter." • " My dear boy," said he, " between you and me there need be no beating about the bush. I tell yon frankly, I should be both proud and happy to welcome you aa my son. Which of the two ia it?" "Of the two? " repeated Roland curi- ously. "Aye. Is it Isabel or Bertha ' " Neither, sir. It is Kate I want. " " Kate 1" cried the old man in blank as- tonishment. But quickly a glad light damced in big eyes. "Yes, Judge. Your Kate is the woman I want for my wife, if I can win her." " But â€" my dear boy â€" how did you man- age to find my pearl â€" my ruby among the houeebold jewels Where and when have you discovered the priceleaa worth of that sweet child " " I discovered it in the kitchen. Judge. I first fell truly and irrevocably in Ipve with her when I found her with her white arms bare, making bread. It is your little Kate I want." • " God bless you, my boy I Go and win her if you ean. And sure if yon gain her you will gain a treasure." Roland went aWay, and half an hour af- terward the supernal light that danced in his eyes told the story of success. And Kate, when closely, questioned, con- fessed that the first flame of real love which burned in her bosom for Roland Archworth was kindled by the deep and true elements of manhood which he had displayed on that early morning in the kitchen. Of course Mrs. Lanark was willing, al- though somewhat surprised at the young man's choice. Isabel and Bertha were disappointed, but since at best only one of them could have won the prize, they concluded on the whole that it was as well » it was. They loved their sister, and were really glad that they were thus enabled to claim the wealthy banker for a Trother-in-law. As for Roland and Kate, their happiness was complete, and of all the accomplish- ments which his wife possesses, tbe husband is chiefly proud of that which enables hier to be in deed as well as in name the mistress of his home. Cast Aw»7 Old Dog Trayâ€" An Incident- Early last fall a very big dog was strug- gling with a saucy little dog for the posses- sion of a bone. The big dog was Germany, the saucy little cur was Zanzibar, and the bone was a large slice of East Africa. While they were tugging away at opposite ends of the bone, the little dog hanging on for dear life though the big fellow was yanking him all over the premises, England stepped in like good Old Dog Tray to act the mutual friend, calm all rufiled feelings, and give to each dog his proper share of the bone. A month later it was announced that a friend- ly agreement had been reached, Zanzibar surrendering its claim to the lar^e inland regions where Germany had planted a dozen stations. On the other hand, the Germans recognized the Sultan of Zanzibar's sover- eignty oveir a coast strip ten miles wide and several hundred miles long, U-ermany having access to her possessions only through the ports of Dasles Salaam and Pangani, for the use of which she was to make a yearly pay- ment to the ruler of Zanzibar. The latest news from Zanzibar is decided- ly funny, but the Germans won't be able to see the joke^ as they are the victims of it. The Sultan of Zanzibar, the cable tells us, has ceded his entire coaat region to the Eng- lish. Old Doe Tray who figured in such a benevolent role last fall, has appropriated the best part of the bone for himself. England takes the water front, and Germany cannot reach her hard-won territory without travel- ling through British poaaeaaions.
