DICKENS’ ROMANCE.
HI* Early Love, Who Jilted Him, and
Her Pathetic End.
The story of how diaries Dickens
was jilted Is particularly interesting.'
When he was eighteen Dickens be
enuie acquainted with the three daugh
ters of George Beadnell. a Lombard
street banker. With one of them,
Marin (the original of Dora in “David
Copperfield"), who was a year his
senior, he immediately fell in love, and
Maria flirted with him very desperate
ly. But tlie love mnking of the future
novelist was not treated very serious
ly, for he was not considered by any
! means an eligible party, and even Ma
ria herself adopted an attitude of
amused tolerance,
l'or three years the affair went on,
and then Dickens renlized that his case
was hopeless. He pleaded lu vain
with the girl, whose caprices madden
ed and gladdened him alternately, for,
as u matter of fact. Maria Beadnell
was a willful coquette. The end of it
all was a reply that hold out no
and so the parting cuuie. For twenty
years they saw no more of oue au
>ther.
Ultimately Marin Beadnell was mar
ried to Henry I.ouis Winter, and when
Dickens met her again time had
wrought sad havoc on his youthful
ideal. Mrs. Winter wrote to her old ’
lover, but Pickens did uot care to re
uew n correspondence with his old
sweetheart. Then Mr. Winter failed,
and the chagrined wife appealed to
the lover of her girlhood for help, but
without avail, and the romauce ended
long before the death of Dickens in
1S70.—Exchange.

THE LADY EXPLAINED.
Then He Probably Smiled, but It Must
Have Been a Sickly Effort.
A woman with*fifteen bundles board
ed the street ear the other afternoon
wheu I was on my way to my subur
ban residence. She was a very pretty
young woman. 1 felt sorry for her.
She was returning from a shopping
tour. Being a man with a kind heart.
I helped her upon the car aud piled
her bundles about her. A man got on
uf the same time and took a seat on !
the other side of the young lady.
Wheu the car came to my street 1 j
was surprised to see her rise and be- j
gin to pick up her bundles. Instantly
my sense of chivalry prompted me to j
help her off the car, and, as 1 was go j
ing in the same direction, I asked per-1
mission to carry her fifteen bundles.
The man got off also and started on
ahead.
I was loaded down UUo a camel
crossing the desert, in those packages
she had everything ftom an electric
flatiron to a five pound hag of prunes.
We trudged along about a half mi1'..
The man turned in at a gate.
When we reached this gete the young
lady thanked mo and said: "This is as
far as I go. I live here. Thank you
very much."
“But the man ahead of us, the man
who came out on the car with us. turn
ed in here too."
“Yes." she said, "lie is my husband,
but he hates to carry packages through
the street.’’—Brooklyn Eagle.
Muscular Christianity.
Muscular Christianity fouud an ex
ponent in the curate of an English dio
cese of whom James Bryce tells in his
"Studies In Contemporary Biography.”
He "had once, under the greatest prov
ocation. knocked down a person who
had Insulted him, and the bishop wrote
him a letter of reproof, pointing out.
among other things, that, exposed as
the Church of England was to much
criticism on all hands, her minister*
ought to be very careful in their de
meanor. The offender replied by say
ing, ‘1 must regret that, being grossly
insulted and forgetting in the heat of
the moment the critical position of the
Church of England, i did knock the
man down.’ ” The bishop — it was
Fraser of Manchester — retaliated by
asking the curate to dinner.
Indian Caricature.
liumor is more or less a secular en
joyment. and its suggestion iu pictorial
art therefore necessarily has a secular
significance. And as the chief motive
of Indian art was religious expression,
secularism in the form of caricature
was never very much emphasized. But
this aspect, though not very frequently
represented, was not entirely absent in
Indian art. Even the oldest records of
Indian painting bear evidence to the
fact that the sense of ridicule or satire
was not altogether divorced from the
canons of art of those times.—Calcutta
