In that estemn city 1 learned the story 1 arn about to relate ta you. -it was not many years ago that 1 knew thern-the persons whomn my story concernis. thoe were three. The central figure in that trio was a beautif ul younggirl, about 2o years old when she came Into the etory I arn about to tell. She was richly endow- cd with womanly graoe and worldly wealth. She was flot from St Louis but ahe traced 'ber ancestry ta the faunders of the city and was bound by tics af blood ta amilies stil I represent- ed here and honored for their lineage. * Sne lived in an eastern city. There she knew and loyed an artiat. The tender passionvwa returned, andi but for one thing al was well and propit- joue wîth their love. The artist was a genius, hie devotion ta bis art being second only to hie devotion ta the young woman whom bic loved. Hie work was much sougbt aiter. There was a peculiar samenees about al his pictures however. He bad a hobby in art always aff ecting the somber in tinta. The gray of November landscapes was a passion with bîm. He carried this taste into a pet name for hi% fiance, for wben be pctted ber he called ber hie little gray mouse. She liked the pet name, for she was but a timid, cli, nng child of love. "T e one thiing that disturbcd the happinees of the»e two wus the foolish jealousy of the artiat lover. The ob- ject of this. jealousy vas a young mani of fortune and lclaurc, who vas a f riend of the pair. Hie knew of their love and sacredly regarded it, but he did love always conducting himniftf as a friend of the two and nothlng more. He did not know that ho was the innocent cause of frequent outbursts of jealous accusations by the ardent artist against hie sweetheart.

A nautýcal mile, on the other hand, ie equal in length ta one-sixtieth part of the length of a degree af a great circle of the earth. But the circum- ference of the earth ie nowhere a truc circle; ite radius of curvature is var- iable; hence the nautical mile, as a matter ai fact. depends for its length upon the shape as well as the size of the globe sailed aver; and hence. etrictly apeaking. the length ai the niutical mile should vary with the latitude, from 6046 feet at the equator ta 61oq feet at the pale. Such ex- trerne accuracy je flot necessary in nav- igating, and cannot be welI attained without undue labor. The English admiralty. therefore have adopted 6o8o feet as the length ai a nautical mile, which corresponds with the Iength of ane-sixtieth ai a degree-or one min- ute ai arc-of a great circle in latitude 48 degrees. The United States Coast Survey has adopted the value ai the nautical mile "as equal to ane-sixtieth part ai a Iength 0f a degree on the great circle ai a ephere whose surface is equal ta the surface of the earth," This gives the length of one nautical mile as equal ta 6080.27 feet, which is very nearly the value of the admiraltv mile adopted in the Eng!ish navy. Piacticaîly the nautical mile is goa feet longer than the statute mile. In other wards, one nautical mile is equal to i. 15 15 statute miles; or one statute mile je equal ta 0.869 nautical miles. Multiply nautical miles by i. 15 15, and the product will be atatute miles; or multiply etatute miles by o.869, and the product wilI be nautical miles. Mulching.
