She had lived for a life- time in an unpretending four-sto brown-stone house, in the very heart of this metropolis, so quictly, S0 unos- tentatiously, that the world " that dashed about her doorstep was unconscious of her existence. And yet, while vigorous efforts were being put forth to establish a museum of fine arts in the eity, and new-made two-hundred-millionaires were building palaces and cquipping picture galleries, this plain, reverent, cultured woman, endowed with great wealth rare energy, increasing industry and exquisite taste, was forming a collection of pam'tings, etchings and en- gravings, ceramics, silverware, jewels, carvings, bronzes, cut glass, porcelain, bric-a-brac and orchids, such as had never before been seen in Ameriea, 1f, in- deed, in the world. The choicest that money could buy she purchased with lavisliness of expenditure that is simply zling. Millions ran through her hands like water, being transmuted into the most beautiful and costly works of art the cunning of man i ‘this nineteenth century 15 able to produce. Nor did she, as a rile, spend her wealth foolishly, or without adequate knowledge and " dis- crimination, as the result shows to all familiar with works of art. To be sure, when one walks through the great exhib tion rooms and looks at the peach-blow vase, a little trinket in_porcelain that stands about a foot I|i;_:l|| and_weighs about a couple of pounds, and is told that the (connoissemr paid $10,000 for it, and when he 1ks alon, a little further and stumbles upon a more massive can- delabrum standing in e middle of the ull, for which she exvended $10,000, one inclined to take the reports of her sa with a peck of salt, and decl that she paid too much. But this is only the expression of the flippant tongue, di- rected by the untutored eye. What do you and I know about it?

But this is exactly what an American widow did—a woman who cared nothing for that ceremonious humbug known as society,who cultivate friends, lived alone, and made her intelligent servants almost her only com- panions. She planted her hot-houses and superintended “their building, and then she put into them $300,000 worth of or- chids. Considering that hundreds of kinds of these eccentric sports of the tloral kingdom can be bought for aquar- ter of adollar apicce, and that there are not more than 3,000 or 4,000 known to naturalists, she must have paid thousands of do) for some of the rarer kinds of these pouting plants, Then she made o collection of ceramies till sl seems to have ransacked the factories of the planct and exhausted the subject. She dipped into delicate silverware with all the enthusiusm that humbler collect ors used to show for rare postag and made the American silversmiths wild with her orders.

Thence- forth she gave up the years to making the tremendous art collection which now astonishes the world, Mrs, Morgan had two married sisters, both living in this city, and one of them, ai least, upbraided her for “throwing away so much money foolishly and huying all sorts of things, as she phrased They did not about this, and the resulf was an est ment which ended in their dropping each other's acquaintance. Then she went on throwing away her money” without riticism.

The light was used in an operation to cure hip disease. A student, 22 old, in the college of Burlington, Vt., slipped on the pavement about two months ago and strained his thigh. He soon lost the use of his left leg and suffered excrutiating pain. He came to New York, was placed on acotin _the Post-graduate Hospital, and Dr. J.

Hilarions GAtherings at the Ranches —Amusiiments that Surprise and Delight a Ten- derfoot. ] This is the time of year when the ave age cowboy aking a thorough rest after the fatigues of the t son's work. To seethe cowboys “‘at home” one must come to Miles City, Montana, writes a_correspondent from t place This town is their headquarters all the year round. There are many knocking around Miles City from day to day with nothing to do except sit down, keep the fire warm and spin yarns. A portion of them find plenty of work even in the dead of the winter, in line riding to keep the cattle back from the streams among the lulls, whero there is always good grazing to be found. When a bhzzard sweeps over the unprotected prairies the animals run before it and seek the val- leys and river bottoms, where they are likely to bunch and freeze to death unless kept in motion, and they are also likely to starve to death unless hurried back among the hills, where the grass is plen- tiful. Thenitis that the cowboy finds he has got business on his hands. But here in Miles City one can run against scores of cow-boys on the street corners, in the saloons, on the roads, or going to and coming from the ranches. They are a race worth studying. They delight in appearing rougher than they are, and find a particular pleasure mn rtling a tenderfoot with blood-curdling stories and 1mvossible adventures, as af such incidents were a part of theireye life. Some of them are pretty well ofl, too, for funds; in fact, some nught be counted wealthy. But “easy come, easy gone” is their motto, and nebody is the worse for it. Asa class they the most reckless tellows on eart the handling of money.

Of course, it immediately known to whom_the money belonged, and a search was insti- tuted for the owner, who was discovered after some time unmindful of the fact that he had left. behind him so large an amount of cash. But it was a desire of mine to see the cowboys at 4hein winter homes, when they are at 4hevranches and aw the towns. 8o a day or two ago 1 w boldly up to 3 gentieman of that pe: sion whom I saw standing idly in front of one of the leading hotels, and said: “My frie at do you Im{s find to do with yourselves during cold weather? How do you manage—" Here “my friend’’ interrupted me with a broad grin, and said: *‘Wal, enough. str you m?‘ a tenderfoot, s Did yoit ever go a line-ridin’, nger?” No," Lanswered politely; “but T did not mean the cowboys who ' were on duty, but those whg Lie around the ranches winter and whe! de out of a job.

A rvecent arrival from the south had broughtit up,. and it was wcked to udgge the wall where everybody could see it, It ran as follows: 1.

But I left them to their innocent, happy enjoyment, and ned a wall-flow throughout nee of the evening. Vhen gay revelers had danced unre- mittingly until about 1 a. m., a halt was called and supper announced. The s ver was spread in a large tentat the | of the main building, and this canv house wus made comfortable and pleas- ant by the aid of a large stove. There were oysters, turkey, venison, all manner of canned goods, coffee and cigars in abundance, but not one drop of whisky or spirituous drinks of any kind. W hen supper was finished the order came for “On with the dance,'* and so 1t was kept up until morning. It was a revelation to me, this life at a cattle-ranch in the dead of winter, and I departed much pleased with my visit and my fifty new-found friends. 1In talking over the matter with other cowboys I learned that dances at the ranches are all the rage this winter, They all take turns in giving them, and thus in some measure is the bleak cold 8 01; Inr the northwest made more easily hle.

Be ient, and when he.comes across anything ho thinks you can comprehend pe he will read it to you. Don’t communicate unpleasant news or ask a favor before eating. The heart is not casily touched when the stomach is empty. Don't ever tell a man he is_good-look- ing Some other woman will probably some time, and in that case he won’t know that her opinion concurs with He carrics o pocket hand-glass , and he will shortly become ad- dicted to Pejama. Don’t ever tell a man he has pretty legs. Men who have been known to bear up under facial compliments fail com- pletely when they realize that their legs are notably good. Don't put the morning paper at the bottom of the pile, and don’t h: more than a dozen different places for the but- ton-hook. Don’t impose upon your husband he- canse_he is good enough to assist you a little in your housework. Don't leave the stove-handle on the red- hot stove and don't ask him to empty the ash-hod. Draw a line on the ash-hod, and don’t run o free horse to death.

When you ask him to go up stairs for your pocket-hook tell him it is either on the table or in the further corner of the left-hand side of the upper bureau drawer, or in the pocket of your brown dress in the ¢lo He will have no trouble in finding it —if yon tell him just where it is, especially the pocket. Don't ask him where he has been the moment he enters the house, or where he s going if he starts out for a walk be- fore breakfast. It nettles him, and men hate to have such l‘nrlllillil questions sprung upon them. Beside that, we live under a free flag. Don't ask him to walk the floor with the baby half the night. A man who tramps industriously around a billiard table tl nights in a week, or buys an admission ticket to the opera, can't be pected to be on duty home the other three nights. Have mercy on him and give the man an opportuiity to recup- crate Don’t use your breath in useless vitup- i nst his chum. Cultivate the chum yourself—ostensibly—when your husband is not around, and matters will assume a different aspe Don’t put pins in your curl papers or let your erimping-pins dangle on your forchead.
