Ever since the tribute of poor, distracted Lear to his dead Cordelia, the voice "soft, gentle and low" has been esteemed "an excellent thing in woman," and to-day there is especial timeliness in a plea for the refined voice, not only In women of gentle breeding, but in those who, far and wide in this great land, —behind counter and in kitchen and on the street,—shriek and yell at a helpless, suffering public.

THIEVES GET AWAY EASY. 585BSS SB An Old Counterfeiter Meets Death In Swamp—Nuns Leave the laadore Convent. Terrorized the Town. Driving into Tekonsha about midnight, three armed robbers broke into the postoffice and blew open the safe and escaped with about $1,400 in stamps and money. Two citizens who chanced along were held up at the muzzles of revolvers and pistols were fired into the air by the men as they left to intimidate the residents. Though practically every man in the village was in pursuit 15 minutes later they escaped. The men secured &i\ entrance to the building by means of a duplicate The Railroad Commission. Judge Person, of Lansing, has declined the place on the new state railroad commission that under the law must be given to a Democrat, so Gov. Warner has offered the place to James Scully, of Ionia. Scully was at the state iulr grounds Wednesday, and said he would accept. The new commission will be Scully, a Democrat; GialgQw, the present commissioner, and George Dickinson, of Oakland county, both of the latter being Republicans. Scully was a member of the legislature during the late Gov. Plngree's two terms and the leader of the Democratic minority. key. Two explosions were heard, arousever thinks to ask one question which I lug the village and shaking the earth ought to be asked: "Is it pleasant to hear you speak?" A certain girl who sells stockings In a big city store sets forth their merits in a voice so pleasing that her customers are sure to buy more than they need. But only a few steps from her counter, the ticket seller at a subway station keeps crying, "One dollar!" "Twenty-five cents!" "Fifty cents!" In a voice so nasal, harsh and penetrating that it offends every sensitive ear and affronts every patron of gentle spirit. For any public servant—whether man or woman—a gentle voice and a gracious manner are worth advancement, declares the Youth's Companion. The tone and air which give unconscious pleasure are all' too rare among hurrying Americans; but where they do exist they are a precious possession. A waitress in a railroad restaurant, being praised for her kindly attentlveness and refinement, replied, "I always think that there is one thing I can do like the finest lady in the land I can speak like her!" for a block around. The burglars had stolen tools from a blacksmith shop and a horse and buggy and drove rapidly from the village a moment after the safe was opened. County and village officers and volunteers are scouring the country In search of them and it is believed that if they are discovered a pistol battle will follow. Surrounding towns have been notified of the burglary and asked to look for the men and the police of Toledo and Chicago have been informed. Committed Suicide. Frank P. Van Horn, late superintendent of carriers in the Jackson postoffice, but who wus under arrest on a charge of stealing from the malls and at liberty on $1,000 bail to appear before the federal grand jury at Detroit, September IB, committed suicide by hanging himself in the barn at his residence Wednesday morning. He had been melancholy several days, realizing thai imprisonment was staring him in the face, having admitted his crime to the postoffice inspector who arrested him. 8TORY ABOUT T H E BATTLE8H1F F L E E T GOING ROUND T H E WORLD.

Bird, a former Kalamazoo man, has been appointed chief smoke inspector of Chicago, with a salary of $4,000 a year. Cholera has attacked Calhoun county hogs, and farmers have united to employ an expert from the M, A. C. Marriage and Society. The fundamental character of a sociological point of view is that it looks ahead. To the sociologist the individual is nothing as an individual; he is concerned with the life of society, which outlives many generations of individuals. This it is which endows marriage with its supreme importance for him. He leaves It with the psychologist to inquire as to the comparative worth of marriage and other forms of *ex relation to the Individual; but he must inquire as to its influence upon the future life of the nociety in which it occurs. Marriage vindicates Itself in his eyes because it furnishes the one perfect condition for the young generation, whose business it is to continue the life of society. Thus the sociologist looks with entirely distinct interest upo* the two kinds of marriages. The childless mar- Miserably Perished. Half buried in the muck of a swamp on the farm of William Piatt, of Porter township, the body of Wellington Jones, once the leader of the notorious "Monkey Run" gang of counterfeiters, was found by Piatt Monday night. Jones had apparently been dead for t o ; t a m m , t th<? d i s e a s t > several days, Wellington Jones, once the owner of ICO acres of Cass county farm land and^ considered wealthy before he became u criminal and during the time he operated before being detected, was toward the last reduced to bitter poverty. It was on \ trip to a neighbor's house, in the hope of raising a few dollars on his last and most valued possession, a set of carpenter tools, that he stumbled in the swamp and, too weak to rise, met his end.

Filled with an indefinable fear that that mysterious something which caused the disappearance of Sister Mary John, the nun, from the convent at Isadore, nearly two weeks ago, The body of an unknown man about CO years old with a ticket from Beldlng to Grand Rapids in nis pocket, was found in the Grand River. l.awton T.

The administration, it is stated, does not mean to confine the fleet's move ments to the Pacific coast. The president's plan is to send the warships on to Hawaii and then to the Philippines after their visit to California ports. When orders are issued for their return the route designated will ba via the Suez canal. Thus the fleet will circumnavigate the globe. It is further learned that in the meantime the Atlantic coast will not be left unprotected, but t h a t at the instunce of President Roosevelt the navy department has already begun to plan the mobilization of another fleet to replace that under Admiral Evans. The flagship of the new fleet will be the N^whampshire, a 16,000-ton battleship which is to be ready for commission early in January. As soon as possible she is to be joined by the Mississippi and the Idaho, two firstclass battleships now under construction by the Cramps and nearing completion. TheBe three powerful vessels will have as consorts three veterans of the Spanish war, the battleship Iowa, Indiana and Massachusetts, which are now being modernized. This fleet of six battleships will have as its auxiliaries the three new scout cruisers which are almost ready for service, the Chester, Birmingham and Salem. Subsequently the new Atlam tic fleet will be reinforced by the two 10,000-ton battleships Michigan and South, Carolina, and the two fast armored cruisers of 14,000 tons, the North Carolina and Montana. The New Hampshire is similar to the Connecticut, Admiral's Evans' flagship, in type, but the Idaho and Mississippi, which are 13,000 tons each, are of a type peculiar to themselves. Thev are noted for the power of their armament notwithstanding their relatively small tonnage. The Chester, Birmingham and Salem are of 3,750 tons each, and they are to be capable of 25 knots an hour speed. The report is probably based on a special dispatch from Shanghai, which says that the United States has taken a five years' lease of Norvik bay, south of Vladivostok, and has also leased for next winter the floating dock at Vladt vostok. Acting Secretary Newberry, of the navy department, said there was no truth in the Shanghai report Regarding the report that the United States had leased for next winter the floating drydock at Vladivostok, Mr. Newberry said: "That would be just as much use to the navy as a canal on Mars." i EASY MONEY. Tho Balding-Hall Co.'s Affair* A r t in Sad snaps. The dftcovery by the creditors of t h e Belding-Hall Manufacturing Co., of Belding and Chicago, that Jesse Hall, president of the company, had appropriated at least $315,000 of the company's funds to his private use, led to the appointment of a receiver. . All of this money, as far as can he learned, was invested in mining, real estate and other ventures which made no money, the combined stock. of which the creditors are willing tosell for less than $4,000. The First National hank, of Chicago, which holds notes of the company aggregating $100,000, will s t a r t criminal proceedings, it i s said, t o brins Hall back from Canada, as t h e creditors believe that he will not return voluntarily. It is expected that the amount that Hall borrowed as well as $40,000 loaned to others will be a total loss, a s he owned nothing except $80,000 worth of stock in the company. Frank A. Jones, secretary of the American Trust & Savings bank, of Chicago, has gone to Belding to take charge of the factory in an effort to pay the creditors of the company as largo an amount as possible. It is estimated by Jacob Newman, attorney for the receiver, that the company will be able to pay 65 cent& on the dollar to creditors after running expenses of the factory are paid. The liabilities of the company are estimated at $700,000 and the assets at $450,000. The missing man's two children are living at his home in Winnetka in charge of a housekeeper, and it is said that they have scarcely enough money with which to meet household ex« penses. A Wild, Weird Tale. Fritz Troxler, a Swiss peasant, who came t o Hagerstown from Baltimore recently and was employed by various building contractors, rushed into police headquarters and declared to the policemen that he had- heard of a plot to kill President Roosevelt. He said he was a member of a secret society, organized to counteract the influence 3f the anarchists. Troxler, £ h o came to America from Switzerland seventeen months ago, spoke very little English. A German interpreter, after conversing with Troxler, gave his opinion that Troxler was sane. Troxler took the officers to his boarding house and showed them a lot of documents, including a card containing the name of a dealer in fire arms. He said the persons who threatened the president's life purchased their weapons from this firm. Justice Hartle later dismissed Troxler, who was locked in a cell for the balance of the night. Troxler told Justice Hartle that in Baltimore, while seated at a table in a restaurant he overheard a German and a Russian discussing a plan to kill President Roosevelt. The officers regard the Swiss as slightly deranged. Qroevenor "Joshes" Sometimes. "Tariff revision, perhaps, free trade never, not even if the Democrats came into power," sums up the opinion of Gen. Charles H. Grosvener, the veteran Ohio politician. Gen. Grosvenor has gone to Europe for a complete rest. He has no definite plan, but will remain in London for a few days, then go to the continent and return to America in October. "The prosperity of the country is so real," said the general, "that no one. is very anxious for a change. The re cent slump in Wall street didn't mean anything to the country at large, except that we have been doing too much business and doing it too fast. We can slow up a little without checking the good times. "Meanwhile we go on making horseshoes and other commodities for free trade England just, to Bhow how well protected Industries can compete in the world's markets. Protection has so proved its value to the country that the Democratic party itself 1B inclined to leave the tariff alone.

Bob Brownley threw himself into the Union Pacific crowd first giving an order to a group of his brokers, who jumped for a number of other poles. Almost Instantly the panic was stayed and stocks were bounding upward two to five point* at a leap. Bob continued buying Union Pacific and his brokers other stocks in unlimited quantities. Nothing like such a quick turn of the market had been seen before. His power to absorb stocks seemed to be boundless. It was estimated that personally and through his brokers he bought over a million shares before he joined me and left the Exchange. I looked at him in wonderment. "Bob, I cannot understand you," I said at last as we turned out of Broad street into Wall. "It seems as if you work with magic. Everything you touch turns to gold." He wheeled on me. "Yes, Jim you are right. Gold, heartless, soulless gold. But what is the dross good for? What is it good for to me? To-day I suppose I have made the biggest one-man killing in the history of 'the Street.' I must be an easy twentyfive millions richer in gold than I was this morning, and I had enough then to dam the East river and a good section of the North. But tell me, Jim, tell me, what can it buy In this worldjfcthat I have not got? I had healtn and happiness, perfect health, pure happiness, when I did not have a thousand all told. Now I have fifty millions, arM I know how to get fifty or five hundred and fifty more any time I care to take them, and I have only physical and mental hell. No beggar in all the world is so poor in happiness as I. Tell me, tell me, Jim, in the name of God, if there is one— for already the game of gold is robbing me of my faith in Hod—where can I buy a little, just a little happiness with all this cursed yellow dirt? What will it get me in the next world, Jim Randolph, what will it get me? If I had died when I was poor, I think you will agree with me that, if there is a heaven, I should have stood an even chance of getting there. Now on a day like to-day, when you see the results of my work, the results of my handling of unlimited gflld, you must agree that if I were taken off I should stand more than an even show of landing In hell where the sulphur is thickest and the flames are hottest." We were at the entrance of Randolph & Randolph's office as he poured out this terrible torrent of bitter ness. He glared at me as a dungeon •prisoner might glare at his keeper for his answer to "Where can I find liberty?" I had no words to answer him. As I noted the awful changes In every line of his face, the rigid hardness, the haunted, nervous look of desperation, which seemed a forerunner of madness, I could not see, either, where his millions brought any happiness. His hair, which, once was smooth and orderly, hung over his forehead in an unparted mass of tangled curls, and here and there showed of white. Bob Brownley was still handsome, even more fascinating than before the mercury entered his soul, but it was that wild, awful beauty of the caged lion, Ir^hlng himself into madness with memories of his iost freedom. "Jim," he went on, when he aaw I could not answer, "I guess you don't know where I can swap the yellow mud for balm of Gilead. I won't bother you with my troubles any longer. I will go up-town and see the little girl whose happiness Tom Reinhart needed in his business. I w A go up and show her the pictures in this week's Collier's of the fine hospital for incurables that Reinhart has so generously and nobly built at a cost of two and a half millions! The little girl may think better of Reinhart when she knows that her father's money was put to such good use. Who knows but the great finance king, may dedicate it. as the 'Judge Lee Sands Home' and carve over the entrance a bas-relief of her father, mother, and sister with Hope, Faith, and Charity coming from the mouths of their hanging severed heads?" Bob Brownley laughed a horrible ringing laugh as he uttered these awful words. Then he beat his hand down on my shoulders as he said in a hoarse voice, "Jim, but for you I should have had crimps in that jackal philanthropist's soul by now and in the souls of his kind. But never mind. He will keep; he will surely ke«D until I gel to him. Every day b t lives h« wtll be fitter for the crimping. Within the short two years since ke finished grilling Judge Sands' soul, he has put himself in better form to appreciate his Teward. I see by the press that at last his aristocratic wife haB gold-cured Newport of Its habit of dating back the name Reinhart to her scullionhood, and it has taken her into the high-Instep circle. I read the other day of his daughter's marriage to some English nob, and of the discovery of the ancient Reinhart family tree and crest with the mailed hand and two-edged dirk and the vulture rampant, and the motto, 'Who strikes in the back strikes often.' " He left me with his laugh still ringing in my ears. I shuddered as I passed under the old black-and-gold sign my uncle and my father had nailed over the office entrance In an age now dead, an age when Wall street men talked of honor and gold, not gold and more gold. In telling my wife of the day's hap- CHAPTER V I I I . A number of times during the following year, and finally on the anniversary of the Sands tragedy, Bob carried the Exchange to the v9rge of panic, only to turn the market and save "the Street" in the end. His profits were fabulous. Already hie fortune was estimated to between two and three hundred millions, one of the largest in the world. His name had become one of terror wherever stocks were dealt in. Wall street had come to regard his every deal, from the moment tha.t he began operations, as Inevitably successful. Now and again he would jump into the market when some of the plunging cliques had a bear raid under way, and would puf them to rout by buying everything in sight and bidding up prices until it looked as though he intended to do as extraordinary work on the up-side as he was wont to du on the down. At such times he was the idol of the Exchange, which worships the man who puts prices up as it hates him who pulls them down. Once when war news flashed over the wires from Washington and rumor had the cabinet members, senators, and congressmen selling the market short on advance information, when the "Standard Oil" banks had put up money rates to 150 per cent and a crash seemed inevitable. Bob suddenly smashed the loan market by offering to lend one hundred millions at four per cent; and by buying and bidding up prices at the same time, he put the whole Washington crowd and its New York accomplices to disastrous rout and caused them to lose millions. Into his wild brown eyes came a ffjeienlng look of fear. "Stop, Jim, for God's sake,', 4on'l say that to me. My cup is Jull how. Don't tell me I am to have that crime on my soul." He thought a moment "IS tioo'tt Hnow whether you mean it, Jim, but I can take no chances, not for all the money In the world, not even for revenge. Walt here, Jim." He yelled for his brokers, and seveial rushed to him from different parts of the room. He sent them back into the crowd while he dashed for the Amalgamated-pole. The day was saved. Presently he came back to me. "Jim, I must have a talk with you. Come over to my office." When we got there he turned the key and stood in front of me. Ilia great eyes looked full into mine. In college days, gazing into their brown depths, by some magic I seemed to. see the heroes and heroines of always happy-ending tales, as the child sees enchanted creatures far back in the burning Yule log flames. But there were no joyous beings in the haunted deptha of Bob's eyes that day. (TO B E CONTINUED.) "'" •' "*"« ,¾ . 4 $ # IN RURAL HOLLAND ••* . „t?y NOT A F R A I D FOR H E R S E L F . Child's Only Thought Was of Damage She Might Do Train. One day last winter a Vermont girl named Rosa HlneB, 14 years old and a farmer's daughter, drew her sled to the crest of a hill half a mile long and then took a slide. Just beyond the foot of the hill are railroad tracks, and as her sled got under motion she saw a train coming. She couldn't stop, and she saw that there must be an accident, so 3he waved her hood and shouted: "Get out of my way! Get out of my way, or you'll be run over!" The engineer saw the girl waving her hood, even if he didn't bear her words, and he brought a long train of freight cars to a sudden stop just in time to let her shoot by the engine. This is probably the first time in the history of railroading when a girl on a sled was given the right of way over a train. When she was afterwards scolded by her father she naively replied: "Oh, I wasn't scared for myself. I was afraid of bunting the train of the track." "Where Can I Find Liberty?" penlngs I could not refrain from giving vent to the feelings that consumed me. "Kate, Bob will surely do something awful one of these days. I can see no hope for him. He grows more and more the madman as he broods over his horrible situation. The whole thing seems incredible to me. Never was a human being in such perpetual living purgatory—unlimited, absolute power on the one hand, unfathomable, never-oool-down hell on the other." "Jim, hQW does he (to what he does? I cannot make out anything I have read or you have told me, how ho creates those panics and makes all that money." ' ^ o one has ever been able to figure it out," I answered. "I understand the stock business, hut. I cannot for the life of me see how he does it. He has none of the money powers in league with him, that's sure, for in the mood he has been in during the past two years It would be impossible for him to work with them, even if his salvation depended on it I The mention of any of the big 'System' men drives him to a fury. He j has to-day made more money than ) any one man ever made in a day since 1 the world began, and he had only com- | ntencod his work when he quit to please mo. As I stand in the Exchange and watch him do it, It seems commonplaco and simple. Afterward it is beyorid my comprehension. At the gait he is going, the Rockefeller. Vanderhilt, and Gould fortunes combined will look tiny in comparison with the one he will have In a few years. It is beyond my power of figuring out, and it gives me a headache every time I try to see through i t " He continued his operations with Increasing violence and increasing profits up to the fourth anniversary of the tragedy. On the intervening anniversary I had been compelled by selfinterest and fear that he would really pull down the entire Wall street, structure, to rush in and fairly drag him off. But with his growing madness my influence was waning. Each raid It was with greater difficulty that I got his ear. Finally, on the fourth anniversary, in a panic that, seemed to be running into something more terrible than any previous, he savagely refused to accede to my appeal, telling me that he would not stop, even if Randolph & Randolph were doomed to go down in the crash. It had become known on the floor that 1 was the only one who could do anything with him in his frenzies, and my pleading with him in the lobby was watched by the members of the Exchange with triple eyed suspense. When it was clear from his emphatic gestures and raised voice— for he was in n reckless mood from drink and madness and took no pains to disguise his Intentions-—that 7 could not prevail upon him, there was a frantic rush for the poles to throwover stocks in advance of him Suddenly, after I had turned from him in despair, there flashed into my mind an idea. The situation was desperate. I was dealing with a madman, and I decided that I was justified In making this last. try. I rushed back to him. Bob. good-bye," I whispered in his ear. "good-bye.

The healthiest: persons in the world are gypsies, and they live in the open air, but there is an erroneous idea that gypsies are people who defy the elements to destroy their health. On the contrary, they are very careful, indeed, of their health, even though living out of doors.

While sometimes seemingly scantily attired, they always are warmly clothed beneath, wearing warm underclothing.

"Why don't you ge<; ye" a n t ? " asked her Woman friend. ' i u j wouldn't be half so lonely if you had some little live animal like that always around." "I haven't come to the animal stage yet, thank heaven," she replied. "When men and women lose all hope of human love they go to the animal kingdom, the men to the dogs, some literally, and the women to the cats; and they are right, perhaps, since faithfulness is to be found mainly among the animals; but as I say, I haven't vii'-e arrive-.! at that stage of the game yet." A DAY'8 TRAVEL IW THE LAND OF DYKES. From Amsterdam Through t h s Wondsrful Country Wrested from t h s Sea by Sheer Courage and Resourcefulness, Her First impressions. "The first impression is the one you should always go by," t^e little grass widow advised. "I know by experience. I have never yet had a husband that I liked at first sight. He always had to win me. Then, after I ,had been w a r n e d awhile, I invariably went back to my first impression of dislike that kept on getting worse and worse till 1 had to leave him. I shall never marry again." she finished, "unless I fall head over heels in lovo with him the first minute 1 moot him." Here is a pretty description of a day's travel through Holland: "At Amsterdam I left the train and boarded a boat bound for the- Helder, the northernmost point of North Holland, where the low-lying islands curve round to the horizon, looking as if they had been appointed ocean outposts tu Friesland. The voyage ffiltffet take a day, but what of that? Thjafft is only one way to travel in Holla*! —by water. The boat glides throaaft the brimming canal, passes the clean towns and the many windmills. Life persists; passengers and cargoes com* and go, but you are no longer at w i r with the world or in trouble with it. You are a spectator, idling through ft summer day, wrapped la aloofness, content merely to be moving through the moist and luminous air. When the environs of Amsterdam are left behind and the waterside houses give place to the reeds that bend as ties backwash overtakes them a a 4 thsl factories fade into vast, bright the spirit of this land, wi the sea, obsesses the traveler. X forgot to count the windmills, waa iftdifferent to the locality of the hut where Peter the Great studied shipbuilding and was content with pretending to choose a habitation from among the dwellings whose gardens are washed by the waters of this great north canal. "We passed through Alkmaar. On one side Dutch farmhouses, compact, four-square stretching in an endless line along the waterway; on the other side the meadows and beyond them, far away, the sweeping line of the dunes. They rise above the North sea and on their sandy sides and heights men are forever on the watch against the encroachments of the ocean; they plant the shrub called helm, that binds the sand together, making a bulwark against the rage of the waves. 'God gave us the sea, but we made the shore,' says the Dutchman. These flower-fruitful and pastoral meadows that outstretched as we glided northward were on -e submerged in water. The tight against the sea never ceases. As we moved northward the three great dykes loomed out. I gazed out at those high bulwarks, patrolled and watched by day and by night, and mused on the legend that at Amsterdam there is one master key a turn of which, in times of peril from foreign invasion, will drown the land again. "And as I mused there swept past a barge. The great sail was hoisted. The family—a mite of the 50,000 canal population who live out their lives on these floating houses—were gathered round the tiller, where mynheer smoked and steered. A barge—the symbol of this sea-conquering people. Below the Helder I landed. Beyond is the fort, with the fringe of islands outposting Friesland, the fishing fleet and the gunboats, and the channel between the mainla,jvj and Texel opening to the world. As I crossed the bridge I saw the sight of sights. There was no fuss, no shouting, no spilling of wine at that launch. The barge moved from her cradle, shot downward, took the water in a rush, pretended to capsiM and all at once acquiesced. She had found her master." Girl Friends.

A woman went into a Broadway florist's store one day not long ago to buy some flowers for a sweet girl graduate. "I want to get some flowers for a young lady who is to graduate to-morrow," she said. "What have you?" "How would some American beauties do?" asked the florist. "What, are they worth?" "The best are seven dollars a dozen." The woman thought a moment. "Have you none cheaper?" she asked. "We have them for 50 cents a dozen and 75 cents a dozen. "Wnnld carnations do for a g r a d a t - ing present?" "Yes, indeed." "Will you tie them up Tith ribbon?" "Yes." "Will you mix the colors?" "Yes." "Well," said the woman, after a moment's hesitation, "you may give me a red one and a white one." The florist gasped.

More Money for Eggs r under most any conditions. There is a lot of money to be made 9 in the egg business if conditions are right. There is no reason why F a r m e r s and P o u l t r y R a i s e r s should not make just as good profits on their investments as any other line of business, and it is possible for them t o do so. The price of eggs during the winter months i s double and sometimes more than double that paid during the summer months. The only way to take ad\"antage of this advance is to hold summer eggs for winter prices.

For.full Particulars address, MOTHER SUPERIOR (Copyright, by Joj»ni>h B Shelter Island it* a feast for the eyeb at all seusuua of the year, but in the month of May It Is the fairest spot on Long Island; then it is In the first glory of its brilliant verdure, and the soft blue sky above and its blue reflection In the water below presents a picture of such exquisite beauty and repose that few brushes could do it* justice on canvas. At Prospect, facing the bay, stands a Queen Anne cottage with many hanging balconies, and standing on the most eerie ono are two young women, of the nineteenth century ultra-fashionable type; the smart cut of their cloth frocks suggests Red fern, and their fine bearing and conscious worth the thoroughbred. .It is about ten o'clock. "It's all very lovely and peaceful and serene, Lily," says the younger of the two girls, with a little weary sigh. "But I like it better in August, when the bay is thick with yachts and rowboats; in fact, to be sincere with you, It has about as festive an appearance now as the Desert of Sahara, and I think we were downright daft to leave town so early this season." "I am really sorry for you, Bertha," replies the other, with an amused look in her fine eyes. "Let us give the 'Pixie' her first sail this season; she will help to liven up the bay for you." The grieved look in Bertha's eyes gives way to radiant delight at her sister's proposition, and in gay spirits they leave the balcony and are soon on the pier in their white flannel yachting suits and tarpaulin hats of the jaunty sailor cut. Lilly is the skipper, and Bertha the deck hand—as her sister calls her— her duty aboard ship being to tend the center-board, hold the sheet rope when occasion demands, shift the ballast, and make herself generally useful. There is scarcely a ripple on the hay, and the half dozen filmy clouds have now lost themselves in the blue ether. The breeze is steady and gentle; the girls keep up a rattling chatter at. lirst, but the utter peace and quiet seems to have a subdued effect, and soon the only sound heard is that of the water as the "Pixie's" sharp bow softly cuts through It. They sail on, but it Is uot long before the sail trembles and the eddy that closes behind the boat is hardly perceptible. "Bertha," says Lily, at last, "we are going to be becalmed; there is scarcely a breath of air." "Don't mention anything so monstrous!" cried Bertha, dropping the book she had been reading and now fully alivo to the situation. "We shall simply broil standing still in this hot sun. Why, there's Robins island; cannot we make it before the wind goes altogether?" "Not unless we row; and even then I am sure you will not caro to land there." "We may as well row to the island, after all," says Lily, presently, looking wistfully at the trees. "There are probably no men there as early as this, and we can rest in the shade until the wind comes up." So they took the brass-tipped oars and rowed toward the shore. It looks very cool and inviting- Robins island is owned by a club of New York men, and is a hunting ground, there being on it fine preserves of quail, etc. "This is almost an adventure," pants Bertha, as she removes her hat and brushes her damp bang off her forehead. "Hush!" suddenly cries Bertha, holding up a warning finger to her sister, who sits some distance from hor, with her head leaning against the trunk of a tree. She listens intently, turning her head pertly on one side like a bird, and then says, in a stage whisper: " Would not it be too unutterably terrible, if there should be any men here, Lily? I am sure I heard something like footsteps way back in the woods." "Your Imagination is too active for comfort, Bertha; if you did hear anything, it was probably a rabbit; these tall bushes are an effective screen for us, even if any genus homo should be abroad, which is unlikely. Now please do not speak to me for ten minutes; T am ton tired to even think;" she closes her eyes and Ber: tha creeps over to her and rests her head in her lap. Bowles.) bushes, then another voice exclaims in tones of astonishment: "By Jove! It's the 'Pixie;' It must have drifted down. It belongs to the Berkley girls, you know; they have a place at Shelter island; tip-top, swagger people; but how in the name uf all that's—why, it's anchored!" he concludes, with a long whistle, and starts down the bank on a run to the boat. At the sound of the first voice the girls had seemed paralyzed, and could only stare hopelessly at each other. At thU instant there is a sharp report and the shot rattles through the bushes like hail. Without a cry Lily sinks to the ground and Bertha lies at her side in a dead faint. A tall, broad-shouldered, florid-faced young man dashes through the underbrush with an eager, huntsman-like look on his handsome face, but his expression changes in a flash to one of horror when he sees the kind of game he has brought down. He takeB in the situation at a glance, and with a now ashen face he rushes down the embankment. "Effingham!" he calls, in a husky voice, as he nears the boat. "The Berkleys," he stops short and chokes. Look with Blanched Faces in the Direction of the Sound. "For heaven's sake, my lord, what has happened? You are shaking like a leaf." "The Berkleys; your friend, Effingham. God help me! I have killed them both!" He burled his face in his hands, while Mr. Effingham gazes in bewilderment at the Pixie and then at him. "You see," he continued, raising his head, "they were on the other side of the brush; I heard a rustling, thought it a rabbit, you know, and— fired. When I saw what I had done I lost my head. I never was so knocked out before in my life; instead of waiting to see what damage I had caused I rushed to you; but they are badly hit; they got the whole charge at short range." "They may not be dead; cheer up, the first thing to do is to go back and see. Get some water in your hat." Bertha had recovered consciousness, and as the two men dash up the aho i a sobbing over Lily's prostrate form. It will take the doctor many hours to pick the shot out of Bertha's shoulder, but she does not heed the sting and t m a r t ; her agony at Lily's badly wounded hand and wrist makes 'her oblivious to her own pain. The shot, fortunately, did not touch either of the girls' faces, but it will be many weeks before Lily can again sail the Plxey. When Bertha sees Mr. Effingham she jumps up and runs to him, trying hysterically to explain their presence on the island. Lord Bertie Dudley kneels beside the unconscious Lily, and with trembling hand nervously spatters her sweet face with salt water. He binds her wrist with his handkerchief, he is deft and gentle, and it is pathetic to watch bis quivering Up and the great effort he puts forth, to appear calm. "1 feel as if I could shoot myself for this, Eiflngham," he says, bitterly, when Lily has been taken to the, boat and made as comfortable as possible. The south wind has sprung up, and the Pixie is once more under sail, but Mr. Effingham is the skipper, and Bertha supports Lily's drooping head oc her shoulder. Poor Lord Dudley watches the boat out of sight from the shore, and then flings his gun as far out Into Peconic bay as his strong arm can send it. With downcast head he walks moodily back to the club house. About three weeks after the foregoing episode there are half a dozen or so people sitting on the veranda of the Berkley cottage at Shelter Island. Among them are Lord Bertie Dudley and Mr. Effingham, and Lily is as beautiful and dainty as ever; to be sure her wrist is still bandaged. It is now two months later, and the bay is as thick with yachts and row boats as Bertha likes to see it, and Lord Bertie Dudley's steam yacht is a fixture in the inlet between Manhansett and Prospect. Lily has lately promised to be Lady Dudley in October, and they are going to England on his yacht. She has told Bertha many times that she had a presentiment when she stepped on boE.rd the Pixie that fate had something in store for her on that May morning. Painting the L i l y . Fashion in flowers has taken a freak turn in Germany of late and there is great demand in certain circles for blooms of hues not found in nature. The flowers are cut with extra long stalks a few hours before they reach full maturity. Then the stalks are put in water in which aniline dyes have been d i s s o l v e * White carnations, lilies and pansies are the easiest to dye and give the most natural results. As the stalk sucks up the water the aniline pigment is carried through all the fine vessels of the blossom and deposited in its cells, so that after a few hours its color is completely established. Sometimes strange and even beautiful effects are secured by stopping the coloring process before it is complete. The white petals will then be delicately veined with green or red —these being the colors most successfully used. Since the discovery that the flowers are simply dyed there is a great outcry among floriculturists, who pronounce the process an outrageous fraud on nature, both inartistic and vulgar. This does not prevent the demand for the dyed flowers from spreading. Quite True. A class of Norwich, Conn., primary scholars were given a language lesson in which the word "organic" was to govern the sense of the sentence. One little fellow wrote better than he knew when he indited: "The Italian is the most organic man on the face of the earth!" Weds Girl; Won't Tell Her Name. Millionaire Hearne Married to a Miss of Seventeen. flEFIAHOE STARGir^ 1M> I There ia a crashing in the bushes not far from the girls, who have been rudely startled from their short nap, and they look with blanched faces in the direction of the sound. Then a deep voice suddenly calls out: "Hello! Effingham; oh, I say, come here!" There is another crash In the New York.—A millionaire of 50 marrying a beautiful brunette of 17 summers is the latest romance of the Waldorf-Astoria. The groom is W. H. Hearne, of Wheeling, W. Va., a member of the Pennsylvania staff and a brother of the late Col. Frank J. Hearne, at one time president of the Colorado Fuel and Tron company. The identity of the bride is not revealed. Her husband says, "It's none of the public's business." Just where the marriage took placo cannot be learned, but it is supposed in the west. The couple met for the first time a few weeks ago at Kansas City, while Mr. Hearne was visiting his Bister, Mra. Annie Armour, and his bride war. the guest of Mrs. Kirk Armour. Soon after Mr. Hearna'a daughter, Mra. Archibald Mitchell, was surprised on receiving this telegram from her father: "Meet me in Wheeling. Am going to be married." The oaughter hurried to Wheeling, but her father failed to appear. A few t.ays ago he and his bride arrived at tho Waldorf-Astoria. Their devotion to each other attracted considerable attention. WORN TO A S K E L E T O N . A Wottdtrful Restoration Caused a Sensation In a Pennsylvania Town. Mra. Charles N. Preston, of Elkland, Pa., says: "Three years ago I found that my housework was becoming a burden, I tired easily, had no ambition and was failing fast. My complexion got yellow, and I lost over 50 pounds. My thirst was terrible, a n d . there was sugar In the kidney secretions. My doctor kept me on a strict diet, but as hia medicine WHB not helping me, 1 began using Dean's Kidney Pills. They helped me at once, and soon all traces of Bugar disappeared. I have regained my former weight and am perfectly well." Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. Tom Ochiltree's Moon. After Tom Ochiltree, that able congress raconteur and laugh generator for the afflicted rich, settled in New- York as the amuser of the John W. Mackay family, he effervesced in a thousand different directions, and was as good in some ways as Sam Ward. One nisht he escorted John.Mackay a friend, the Count de Biscout, down to the Battery to show the sight of New York. The moon was grand, and thecount went Into raptures as "her maiden reflection rippled over the pearly waters." He cried: "Eet Iss grand! Eet is grand! Dair iss no such moon In all ItalyV "Count," said Ochiltree, solemnly, as befitted the occasion, "you JuBt ought to see the moon in Texas!" Saw Chance to Economize. After weeks of waiting and longing for the sport, rods, reels, gaff, creel— everything was in readiness for a week's trout fishing. The young wife, smiling joyously, hurried into the room, extending towards her husband some sticky, speckled papers. "For goodness' sake," he exclaimed, "what on earth are you doing with those Did fly papers?" "I saved them for you last summer, dear," she answered. "You know you said you always had to buy flies when you went fishing." A Foine Bird. An Irishman who wasn't much of a hunter v/ent out to hunt one day, and the first thing he saw to shoot at was a blue jay sitting, saucily on the top of a fence. He blazed away at the bird and then walked over to pick it up. What he happened to find there was a dead frog, which he raised carefully at arm's length, looking at it with a puzzled air. Finally he remarked: "Well, begobs, but ye was a devil of a foine looking burd befur Oi blew ther flthers off o'yers!"—Judge's Library. Statue Finally Completed. When Alfred Stevens designed tho noble monument to the duke of Wellington in St. Paul's cathedral, London, he intended that his work should be crowned by an eqweBtrian statue. But Stevens died before his design was carried out. Now, 32 years after his death, the equestrian statue has been completed and before long will be placed in position. F A M I L Y FOOD. Crisp, Toothsome and Requires No Cooking. Wonderful Feats. t.I has been said that Caesar could .dictate to 21 secretaries at one time, to each on a different subject, In Homer's Iliads are 31,670 verses, and his "Odysseys" are much about the same length, yet Josephus Soaliger was only 21 days in getting both by heart. Seneca could repeat 2,000 names in tho same order in which they wero spokrn, and rehearse 200 verses after hearing them read once. MUhridates had 22 countries under hi? dominidn, yet w a s ' a b l e t o . corverse with each in the language cf the country he represented without the aaatatan.ee oC ft& iaterpxatar. A little boy down in N. C. a3ked his mother to write an account of how Grape-Nuts food had helped their family. . She says Grape-Nuts- was first brought to her attention on a visit to Charlotte, where she visited t h e Mayor of that city who was using the food by the advice of Ma- physician. S h e saysj "They derive so much good from it that they never pass a day without using it. While I was there I used the Food regularly. I gained about 15 pounds and felt so well that when I returned home I began using Grape-Nuts in our family regularly. "My little 18 months old baby shortly after being weaned was very ill with dyspepsia and teething. She was sfck nine weeks and we tried everything. She became so emaciated that it was- painful to handle hor nnd we thought we were going to lose her. One day a happy thought urged me to try Grape-Nuts soaked in a little warm milk. "W7ell, it worked like a charm and she began taking it regularly and improvement set in at once. She is now getting well and round and fat as fast as possible on Grape-Nuts. "Sometime ago several of the family "~* were stricken with LaGrippe at the same time, and during the worst stages , we could not relish anything In tha shape cf food but Grape-Nuts and oranges, everything else nauseated us. "We all appreciate what your fa« mous food has done for our family." "There's a Reason."

Work This College la Doing for tho Natives of Phlllppinas. Billiman Institute w a s founded i n 1901 by Dr. H. B. Sllliman of Cohoea, N. Y., with t h e purpose of creating in the Philippines a body of C h r i s t i a n men trained for t h e practical walks of life. A J ^ , / From t h e door / K . / i \ v _ o £ t h o colluge V V^l^A v - H building t h e islands of Cebu, Bohol Slquijor and M i n d a n a o a r e clearly in view, and other* He Just over the horizon. It was for this reason, and to keep the school away from tl c dangers of city life, that the towa of Dumaguete on the island of Negros was chosen with its background of high mountains, and the Pacific only a stone's throw from t h e school door. It is in the center of the Visayan tribe of over 3,000,000 and within.easy reach of them all. V h e site seems not t o have been chosen amiBs, for t h e people have taken the work of the school seriously from the start and have supported it loyally. T h e school, which is under the care of the foreign board of t h e Presbyterian church, • was opened formally with 13 pupils, and in t h e five years of i t s existence h a s grown to 260. It tfould have been 300 if it had not been crowded to overflowing during t h e present year. These students come from all t h e larger islands of t h e archipelago, and are boya of enthusiasm and ability, for t h e most part from the Roman Catholic church, and yet too anxious for an education to allow this to stand in the way. It is t h e oldest of t h e Protestant Christian schools hi t h e islands and the only one where rich and poor are brought together on terms of perfect equality, and given either a classical course or an industrial training. It is a burning truth in the islands that knowledge is power; a boy goes home from the school here and can be a leader—a power almost from the start. In America it means a little envious concession, but here it means power — leadership. An educated, strong man, to-day, will move a whole community. The old Spanish system of education is as far out of date as a 40-year-old atlas. T h e n ew ideas of education, freedom and religion possess the heart and thought of t h e Filipino, says Dr. S. Hubbard in Record of Christian Work, and cannot be repressed. It is for t h e guidance of these that Sllliman Institute stands— against superstition, Injustice, slavery and ignorance. A careful study of the Bible as a text book Is reqpired of every student. The late Senator Piatt of Connecticut enjoyed funny stories and could tell a good many himself. Notwithstanding h i s long public life, he always remembered a yarn that he carried from hfs school days. One year when the district schools opened in his town one of the teachers, in making a record of the ages of h e r pupils, a s required by law, found t h a ' one little girl, who came from a family not noted for being especially bright, w a s unable to say when her birthday came. So in order to complete her records, the teacher walked two miles to see the girl's mother one afternoon after school. Asked if she could remember just when her daughter was born, the woman thought for some little time, and then with a sort of puzzled look, said: "Well, the gal w a s born in 'tater time, that's sure, but I can't 'member whether they w a s a-plantlu' on 'uiu or a-diggin' on 'em," CA8E OF ECZEMA IN 80UTH.

T h e child was told t h a t when she said her prayers a t night she should seek forgiveness a n d a s k t h e Lord t o help her be a better girl. Here is t h e prayer which t h e youngster made under protest: "Oh, Lord, I want you to help me t o mind my mamma, to help me to b e a better girl, to help me to be good to my playmates, to—but, pshaw, Lord, what's t h e use?

Cuthbert Hall, president of Union seminary, New York, h a s returned to America, after delivering his second course of Barrow lectures in India.

"You will b e pressed for money oftener because you have no advertising bills to pay than because you have," observes t h e Buffalo News. "Big advertising bills and big bank balances grow, together, out of t h e same publicity campaigns." The merchant who holds down his expense account by cutting out advertising saves money just t h e way t h e railroads would if they should stop buying coal for their locomotives. Without coal the wheels won't turn; without publicity trade comes to a standstill. It pays to throw silver out of the window that gold may come in a t the door. A Hopeless Case. "Yes," said t h e business man, " I have given up trying to collect that little bill from Bilkins. You see, he is a big, muscular fellow, and he used to throw my collectors out." "Then why didn't you employ a woman collector?" inquired a writer In Spare Moments. "He couldn't do that to a woman." "That's what I thought, so I got one and sent her round, but she never came back." "Why not?" "He married her." How's This?

The definition of Lizzie, ugvd seven, i will strike a responsive chord In the . heart of the busy woman and show* j that Llszle muvt be an observing person. "A late Is something like u man," says iTzale, "but she's got long hulr and she's got a different face and different clothes, and she'a got u lot of j work to do." Charlie, uged alx, la lm- ' pressed by the difference between the 1 sexes. "A ludy" lie flnds to be "differ ' eut from a man because a lady hus | different clothes from a man, a lady ban different eyes from a man, a lady boa u different body from a man> aud u U*dy has different ahoea from a man."

Mysttrious Paopla Who La ft Trace* of a Remarkable CiviHiation. Why did the Etruscans devote their whole lives to the Incessant making of pottery until It accumulated in such quantities that they were compelled to bury It in order to keep room for themselves In their streets and houses? Then, again, there is the mystery of the Etruscan inscriptions. These inscriptions are fairly numerous, but hitherto they have proved to be utterly undecipherable. The Etruscan is the only dead language that has defied investigation. Considered as a language, nothing could seem more improbable than the hieroglyphics of the Egyptians, but Egyptologists can read them with such ease that almost any given series of hieroglyphics can be rend in three or four ways by an equal number of rival Egyptologists. Any language more utterly Impossible at first glance than the Assyrian arrow headed language could not well bo imagined,' but there are many learned men who ean read, write and speak ar rowhead with facility. And yet no man can make the least sense of the writ tngs left by the Etruscans,'although they are written In Roman characters. All that we know of the Etruscans ftama u&raasonable and preposterous Haturallj this makes them fascinating to every one who delights In mystery and the solution of puzzles. -Putnam's Magazine.

Who would have thought that America, an unknown land when the east waa at the height of its fame, would ever become a caterer* to a special oriental fad? There was a time when the east was noted as the originator of various luxuries, including perfumes of the most exquisite order. Shakespeare hints at this when he makes kady Macbeth atfirm, after the indelible mark of crime has been impressed: "All the per* fumes of Arabia will not sweeten thia little hand." Yet now, sayH the Troy Times, it seems Arabia may get its perfumes from the United States. Consul William Coffin, stationed at Alaskat, says there is an excellent chance for the tale of the American article in that quarter, remarking: "Perfumery, an article of luxury among Europeans, seems to be almost a household necessity in Oman, where men as well as women use it lavishly. On formal visits it is usually offered to a guest after sherbert and coffee have been served, and a favorite present, where many services are requited by gifts instead of money, is an expensive bottle of scent. Arabia, so long famous for Its spices and perfumes, now goes abroad for Its perfumery." After explaining at considerable length the best way in which to put up American perfumes in order to attract native fancy, Consul Coffin again points out that there is an opportunity for securing considerable custom among the well-to-do not only of the city of Maskat but of the country at large. So here is a chance both to expand American trade and shed fragrance abroad. 4 LATEST NEWS OF MIGHI rHE FOUR MYSTERIES OF GRAND TRAVER8E NOT YET SOLVED. THE PERSECUTED WIDOW Sister Mary's Disappearance, a Persecuted Family, a Will on a Toadstool and a Burned Mill. Who Can Solve Them. Every effort is being made to solve four systeries which have1 agitated the Grand Traverse region, but no results have yet been obtained. The first of these is the missing nun from the lsadore convent. On Friday, Ai£ gust 23, Sister Mary disappeared while the priest In charge of the convent and church was out fishing. An alarm was sent out and every attempt has been made to find her, a detective having been called upon the case only to give it up. Tracks of the woman have been found, a bloodhound Is believed to have discovered her, but still she is missing, successfully eluding all the searching parties. MICHIGAN BRIEFS. Being a strong young man has its disadvantages in Turkey. Elsewhere, military service is seldom obligatory in times of peace for more than three years, whereas in the sultan's realm it is no unusual thing for a soldier to be kept in the army for seven years. But the young Turk seemB to be wonderfully patient. A German correspondent at Salooica had occasion the other day to observe a number of military men at a railway station. They had been discharged and had taken their seats In the train, when, shortly before it was to leave, a message came from headquarters stating that the mazbada regarding their return bad not arrived and that there was no money anyway to pay for their passage. Without a word of complaint the troops left the train and went into camp, where they had to wait several weeks before they were finally sent home. There have, however, been signs of disaffection of late, and the minister of war has proclaimed his intention of shortening the time of service. The Invisible Stpne Thrower. The next "mystery" to occupy the attention of the people had its scene at Williamsburg. Mrs. T. Badley, a widow living with her two sons and her daughter-in-law, is the victim. One year ago her barn was burned from unknown cause. Some time later some one took thirty jars of fruit and four pounds of butter, as well as money and other articles. About two weeks ago, thieves again entered the house taking more fruit, more butter and even pie plates and cups and saucers as well as all the money they could find. Again there was no clue. A week later the home was visited again. The climax came on Sunday night the Sth, when stones were thrown through the windows and search was made by the sons but without discovery. At 6 a. m. while the boys had retired for a little rest more stones were thrown through the windows, but they could not find the thrower. Then guards were stationed about the house for a night and while the men were eating a lunch at 2 a. m. Mrs. Badley was in the kitchen making coffee and from time to time nervously glanced behind her at a side window. Sure enough, a man's hand was seen and at the same instant a revolver butt was thrust through the glass and withdrawn. This was the last seen of the intruder. A new Saturday evening diversion for New Yorkers 1B found by crossing the North river in the ferryboats. Hoboken at any time is a place to conjure with; on Satufday nights it Is especially a place of mixed delights. Then it has a decidedly old world atmosphere— the crews of the steamers docked on the Hoboken side of the river are ashore, dressed in their nattiest uniforms; scraps of language from every country in Europe can be picked up in the cafes; there are bevieB of pretty girls who have flocked down to the piers to flirt and watch the flirting, and a score of other picturesque features peculiar to the time and place. New Yorkers on the lookout for untried attractions have found them in Hoboken. The discovery in London that there are six persons still receiving pensions award.ed.to them in the times of George IV. and William IV. goes to support the statement, made recently by a coroner in England, that apparently the best way to longevity was to obtain an annuity or reside in a workhouse or almshouse. He rarely, he said, had to inquire into the death of a nonagenarian unless the person had been an inmate of almshouse or workhouse. The Klngsley Puzzle. The third in the series was at Kingsley. Clarence Workman, a farmer, went after his cows as usual on Sunday evening. Seeing something white on a toadstool, he went up to it and discovered a large, fresh toadstool almost covered with writing. In the fading light he discovered that it was a message from Joseph Allen, who was not known here, saying that the writer Intended to commit suicide. The toadstool was his will, for on it he gave to Ethel Thorn his share of his father's estate, declaring that she had driven him to the deed, but he loved her, No body could be found and no trace of the writer. No Ethel Thorn was known in the region, and it was supposed that the name, Joseph Allen, was signed by some jokef, but the toadstool also contained the name of E. W. Allen, of Grand Rapids, uncle of the young man whose name was signed. But Joseph Allen, it was learned, was 3,000 miles away in British Columbia, working as a Sookkeeper in a smelting plant. Who Fired the Milts? The fourth and latest mystery lies in the W. E. Williams mill fire, which occurred Tuesday night, entailing a loss of $20,000. The fire occurred in a dry kiln where hardwood lumber was stored. There was no fire there, it had rained for about a week and had rained on the day of the Are; in fact, a fierce rainstorm was raging when it was discovered, so that precluded any possibility of it igniting from a locomotive spark. Six months ago the mill was completely destroyed and tire origin of the fire was never learned. an VSrf i' ...,-., Tender-hearted New Yorkers have secured an arrangement whereby horses broken down in the service of the city will.hereafter be turned loose on a farm and left to enjoy an easy old age instead of being sold Into drudgery.

The Inquisitive Juror. The Hillsdale court is trying to straighten out a peculiar tangle. Leon Vreeland was . arrested for assisting Clare Buck to rob a man of $75. Buck is serving time for the offense in Jackson. Vreeland was tried and found guilty last week. It now appears that one of the jurors, who was of an investigating turn of mind, went to Boyd's saloon, where the pocket-picking occurred, looked over the ground, asked questions of the saloonkeeper. Vreeland was found guilty and his attorneys are now trying to secure a new trial for him on the above grounds.

THE GRAND ARMY. Rapidly Failing, "We must all be prepared for bad news from Princeton," said a Democrat of prominence who passed through New York city Saturday night on his way to his home up country, "because Mr. Cleveland's health is failing rapidly. He is troubled with gout in his feet, which is spreading to his knees, and he has fallen off in weight forty pounds within three months. "No communications of public or private importance are now. submitted to Mr. Cleveland. Mrs. Cleveland Is acting practically as bis confidential adviser and secretary in all matters, and she is fully acquainted with her husband's real condition. "Mr. Cleveland has remained at his home at Princeton all summer: The Cleveland children have been at Mr. Cleveland's New Hampshire home with their grandmother. Mrs. Cleveland has believed it to be necessary to remain with her husband at Prince-1 ton. "His recovery is not looked for. He may live for a number of weeks, but he will never return to his offices in the Equitable Life building. Not only is he affected with gout in his feet and knees, but he is subject to frequent attacks of acute indigestion.

Official acts, public declarat i o n and assurances in private conferences warrant the statement that no chief, executive in the history of the nation has held or could hold In higher regard the Services of the men who saved this union, and no president has evinced a stronger desire to adequately recognize that service and its re suits than Theodore Roosevelt." Things Have Changed. Ex-Judge E . . H. Gary, chairman of the board of the United States Steel Corporation, who has just returned from abroad, said: "The time has gone past," he said, "for the great corporations to ignore the public and the public interests. The public-be-damned policy, if that phrase was ever actually uBed, will not go in theBe days. T?he heads of our metal Industrial enterprises ca» never adopt that attitude, not alone as a matter of policy but in the interest of their own undertakings. There has been a great change of late years In the attitude of corporations toward the public and their employes." Knock Out the Law. Judges Wilson and Audenried, in common pleas court, Philadelphia, dea perfect exemplification of the old j elared unconstitutional the 2-cent rail- French saying: 'It is not so much the entrance to life as the exit,'" and he went on to say that after all the battles, all the heart-burnings and factional differences former President Cleveland is now, in these radical days, the idol of the real Democracy of the country. From other sources it was learned that Mr. Cleveland has given up all Interest in public affairs and is pre * pared for the worst. WeMman'e Airship Voyage. Walter Wellman's attempt to reach the north pole by an airship voyage while not disastrous was a failure He says of the attempt: "After the steamer Express cast off the cable, the balloon#America did excellently, but an increasing wind soon gave us a hard struggle, and the storm drove us toward some high, jagged mountains near the coast where the airship would have been destroyed if she struck. The struggle with the wind and a snowstorm showed the power of the airship, but the compass was defective and the voyagers were completely lost in a snowstorm above the Polar sea and threatened with de- | structlon." Finally deciding to return to the steamer, Wellman says, the airship circled three times in the teeth of the wind. We saw the Express for a moment, but immediately lost her again. We could have returned to the Express if we could have seen where to steer, but under the circumstances the only thing possible was to try to land. With this idea we stopped the motor and let the America drift over the glacier. At the end of Foul bay we used a trailer filled with provisions and a brake rope. Both acted well and dragged over an ice wall 100 feet high without damaging the provls ions. After crossing the glacier we opened the -valve and landed half a mile in shore. The landing was effected so successfully that material weighing nine tons . descended three hundred feet and touched the ice with no shock or damage whatever excepting several bant tubes and broken wires. The America was In the air for three hours and fifteen minutes, and covered abbut fifteen miles with her own machinery. She made three loops against the wind, proving her power and capability of being steered. The ascent was successful in every respect The America is from every standpoint the strongest airship and the most durable for a Jong journey that ever has been built. She held the gas splendidly. . The balloon and the entire outfit has been made ready for the winter and three men have been left on guard. After this attempt we are all convinced that the America in* normal summer weather can make her way to the pole. We all regard this plan as rational, practicable and feasible. The thing can be done, and whe.1 oan be done, shall be done. Three Morenci residences were looted by burglars Friday night. Two gold watches and $10 was taken.

To be sure I have some feeling for mother, Fred, and sisters. But for you 1 have a love second only to that I should have felt for Beulah had I been allowed to have her. The thought, Jim, that I had wrecked your ilfe, with all you have to live for, would have been the last straw. My Ilfe Is purgatory. Beulah is only an everpresent curse to me—a ghost that rends my heart and soul, one minute with a blind frenzy to revenge her wrongs, the next with an icy remorse that I have not already done so. If I did not have her, perhaps in time I could forget; perhaps I might lay out some scheme to help poor devils whose poverty makes life unendurable, and with the millions.I have taken from the main shaft of hell I might do things that would at least bring quiet to my soul; but it is impossible with the living corpse of Beulah Sands before me every minute and that devil machinery whirling in my brain all the time the gong, 'Revenge her and her father, revenge yourself.' It is impossible to give it up, Jim. I must nave revenge. I must stop this machinery that is smashing up more American hearts and souls each year than all the rest of earth's grinders combined. Every day I delay I become more fiendish Jn my desires. Jim, don't think I do not know that I have literally turned into a fiend. Whenever of late I see myself in the mirror, I shudder. When I think of what I was when your father stood us up In his office and started us in this heart-shrivelllng, soul-callousing business, and what I am now, I cannot keep the madness down except with rum. You know what it means for me to say this, me who started with all the pride of a Brownley; but it is so, Jim. The other night I went home with my soul frozen with thoughts of the past and with my brain ablaze with rum, intending to end it all. I got out my revolver, and woke Beulah, but as I said, 'Bob is going to kill Beulah and himself,' she laughed that sweet child's laugh and flapping her hands said, 'Bob Is so good to play with Beulah,' and then I thought of that devil Relnhart and the other fiends of the 'System' be* ing left to continue their work unhindered and I could not do it. I must have revenge; I must smash that heart-crushing machinery. Then I can go, and take Beulah with, me. Now, Jim, let us have it clearly understood once and for all." Remorse and softness were past; he was the Indian again. "I am going to wreck that hell-annex some day, and that some day will be the next time I start in. Don't argue with me, don't misunderstand me. To-day you stopped me. I don't know whether you meant what you threatened; I don't care now. It is Just as well that I stopped, for the 'SyslemV machine will be there whenever I start in again. It loses nothing of its fiendishness, none of lis destructive powers by grinding, but on the contrary, as you know, it Increases its speed every day it runs. Now, Jim Randolph, I want to tell you. that.you must get yotirs and the house's affairs In such shape that .you won't be h*rt when I gol into .tfiat Tinman/ rat-pit the~ next time, for "when t come from it the New York Stock Exchange and the 'System* will have'had their spines attainted, res,' and I'll have their hearts out, too. Neither will ever be able to take from the American people their savings and their manhood and womanhood and give them in exchange unadulterated torment I am ?oing to be fair with you. Jim; this LB the last time I will discuss the subject- After this you must take your chance with the rest of those who have to do with the cursed business. When I strike again, none will be 3pared. I will wreck 'the Street,' and the innocent will go down with the sulky, if they have any stocks on hand at that time. "My power, Jim, Is unlimited; nothing can stay it. I am not going to . explain any further. You have seen toe work. You must know that my ./. "sower is greater than the 'System's,' /, i n d you and I and 'the Street' have al- '** ways known that the 'System' is more powerful than the government, more powerful than are tbereourta, legislatures, congress, and fa* pre*}*** of . the United' States' combined, that it absorstely controls the touadmtfoa on Whjctf; ts*y *•*-?!$*• mow* of the Hat a y sower Is greater, a a million times than theirs. Jim, they say that I have made more money than any man in the world. They say that I have five hundred millions of dollars, but the fools don't keep track of my movements. They only know that I have pulled five hundred millions from my open whirls, the ones they have had an opportunity to keep tab on. But I tell you that I have made even more In my secret deals than the amount they have seen me take. I have had my agents with my capital in every deal, every steal the 'System' has rigged up. The world has been throwing up its hands in horror because Carnegie, the blacksmith of Pittsburg, pulled off three hundred millions of swag, in the Steel hold-up—yes, swag, Jim. Don't scowl as though you wanted to read me a lecture on the coarseness of-my language. I have learned to call thiB game of ours by its right name. It Is not business enterprise with earned profits as results, but *friim*+*mmmmmmJlBm Shortly after this talk Bob left for Europe with Beulah. A great German expert on brain disorders had held out hope that a six month's wo»tment at his sanitarium in Berlin might aid in restoring her mind. They returned the following August The trip had been fruitless. It was plain to me that Bob was -the same hopelessly desperate man as when be left, more hopeless, more desperate if anything than when he warned me of his determination. When he left for Europe "the 8treet" breathed more freely, and as time vent by and there was no sign of his confidence-disturbing Influence in the market the "System" began to bring oat its deferred deals. Times were ripe for setting up the most wildly inflated stock* lamb-shearing traps. It had been advertised throughout the world that Tom Relnhart, now a two-hundred-time millionaire, was to sonsolldate his and many other enterprises into one gigantic trust with twelve billions of capital. His Union and Southern Pacific railroads, his Southern lines, together *with his steamship company and lead, iron, and copper mines, were to be merged with the steel, traction, gas, and other enterprises he owned jointly with "Standard Oil." Some of the railroads owned by Rockefeller and his pals, in which Relnhart had no part, were to go in too, and with these was to unite that mother hog of them all, "Standard Oil" itself. The trust was to be an enormous company, the like of which had until then not even been dreamed of by the most daring stock manipulators. The "System's" banks, '•When I Strike In Again, Don't Attempt to Stay Me, for It Will Do No Good." pulledoff tricks with bags of loot— black-jack swag—for their end. "I got away with three hundred millions when Steel slumped from 105 to SO and from 60 to 8, and no one knew I'd made a dollar. You and 'the Street' read every morning last year the 'grosses' as to who could be rounding up hundreds of millions on the sluihpl" The papers and the market letters one • morning said it was Standard Oil; the. next, that it was Morgan; then it was Frick, Schwab, Gates, -and so on down through the list. Of course, none of them denied; it is capUal to all these knights of the road to be making millions in the minds of the world, even though they never get any of the money. Dick Turpln and Jonathan Wild never were fonder of having the daring hold-ups that o^her highwaymen perpetrated laid to their doors, than are these modern bandits of being credited with ruthless deeds, that they did not commit But Jim, 'twas I who sold Pennsylvania every morning for a year, while the selling was explained by the press as 'Cassatt cutting down Gould's telegraph poles. Gould and old man Rockefeller selling Pennsylvania to get even.' Jim Randolph, I have to-day a billion dollars, not the Rockefeller or Carnegie kind, but a real billion. If I had no other power but the power to call to-morrow for that billion in cash, It would be sufficient to lay in waste the financial world before to-morrow night You are welcome, Jim, to any part of that billion, and, the more you take the happier you will make me, but whee t strike in again, dont attemnt te stay O K for It wilt do no good/ as well as trust and Insurance companies throughout the country, had for a long time been getting Into shape by concentrating the money of the country for this monster trust It was newspaper and news bureau gossip that Relnhart and his crowd had bought millions of shares of the different stocks Involved In the deal, and it was common knowledge that upon its successful completion Reinhart's fortune would be in the neighborhood of a billion. On October 1st the certificate of the Anti-People's Trust, $12,000,000,000 capital, 120,000,- 000 shares, were listed upon the New York, London, and Boston Stock Exchanges,, and the German and French Bourses, and trading in them started off fast and furious at 106. The claim that one billion of the twelve billions capital had been set aside to be used in protecting and manipulating the stock in the market had been so widely advertised that even the most daring plunger did not think of selling it short It was evident to all in the stockgambling world that this was to be the "System's" grand coup, that at its completion the masses would be rudely,awakened to a realization that their savings were invested in the combined American industries at vastly inflated values, that the few had all the real money, and that any attempt upon the people's part to regulate and control the new system of robbery, would be fraught with unparalleled disaster—not to the "System," but to tbe people. Since Bob's return from Europe I had seen him but a few times. Up to October 1st he had not been near the Stock Exchange or "the Street" Shortly after the listing of the "People Be Damned," as "the Street* had dubbed t h e new trust, he began to show up tf his-office regularly. This was. the* ;4on<Utlon of affairs when Fred Brownley called me up on the telephone, as I related at the beginning of my story which I did not realise I had been so long in telling. My thought* had been chasing each other with lightning-like rapidity back over .the last five years and the 15 before them, and each thought deepened the black mist over my present mental vision. In the midst of my reflections my telephone rang again. "Mr. Randolph, for Heaven's sake have you done nothing yet?" It was Fred Brownley's voice. "Things are frightful hene. Bob's brokers are selling stocks at five and ten thousandlot clips. Barry Con ant is leading Relnbart's forces, it is said he has the pool's protection order in Anti- People's and that it is unlimited, but Bob has the Relnhart crowd pretty badly scared. Swan has just finished giving Conant a hundred thousand off the reel in 10,000 lots, and he told me u moment ago he was going to get Bob himself to face Barry Conant They're down 20 points on the average, although they haven't let Anti- People's break an eighth yet. They have it pegged at 106, but there is an ugly rumor just in that Bob, under cover of a general attack, la unloading Anti-People's on to the Relnhart wing for Rogers and Rockefeller, and the rumor is getting in Its work. Even Barry Conant is growing a bit anxious. The latest talk is that Reinhart is borrowing hundreds of millions on Anti-People's, and that his loans are being called in all directions. Do you know Reinhart is at hiB place in Virginia and cannot get here before tomorrow night? If Bob breaks through Anti-People's peg, It will be the worst crash yet" (TO B E CONTINUED.) EFFECTS OF DRUGS VARIED VISION8 FOLLOW USE OF MEXICAN MEftCAU Feeling Throughout Is Otis of Enjoy' ment — Alternate Delight and Despair Attend the Indulgence in Haschisch. DIDN'T THINK HELP NEEDED. Simple iFsherman Had Heard of the Wonders of Science. H. G. Weils, the novelist, spoke at a Boston club about the wonders of modern invention. "So thick and fast," he said, "these new inventions come, life grows rather confusing for plain and simple folk. There was an old fisherman rowing in his boat one day when an automobilo canoe sprung a leak near him and Immediately sank. To t£e indignation of the canoe's occupants, the old man paid no heed to them, but rowed calmly on his way, puffing an old clay pipe. However, the wrecked canoeists managed to swim to him, and as they clambered into his boat one spluttered angrily: 'Confound you, why didn't you lend us a hand? Didn't you see we were sinking?' The old man took his pipe out of his mouth and stared at them in astonishment. 'Blest if I didn't think ye wuz one o' them new-fangled submarines,' he said." Extravagance in Dress. Very few persons outside of the glittering circle of our enormously rich families, who constitute what is referred to aa "the be3t society," can understand how any young woman in this or any other country can spend upon her wardrobe such vast amounts of money as are expended by the daughters of some of these families. The history of the world does not show such reckless extravagance in the way of dress. Nor, for the matter of that, does the history of the world show so riotous a use of money as that practiced by our very rich in their strictly social dtverttsements. Happy is the lot of the man or woman who fs not tempted to such foolish indulgences, which take the edge fron? life's real joy! An experimenter with the Mexican drug mescal is rewarded by many and varied visions. Before him flit myriads of dainty butterfly forms, glistening, iridescent, fibrous wings of insects, revolving vessels on whose highly polished concave surface of mother-ofpearl many strange and vivid hues play. There are elaborate sweetmeats In endless and appealing variety, and living arabesques of gorgeous hues and superhuman design. He may take up a pen for the purpose of making notes, but will find himself unable to use it. A pencil, ' however, proves easy of manipulation. As he writes his paper is covered with a soft, golden light, and hit aaada, seen indirectly, appear bronzed, fantastically pigmented and with red. Tiring of the visions, be may light the gas, which immediately fills the room with a glorious radiance, while wonderfully colored shadows of red, green and violet flit here and there. Generally, it is said, no feeling of depression or physical discomfort follows the dream. A medical experimenter in Kentucky, soon after taking a large dose of haschisch, began to feel very excited; a feeling of finer joyousnesa possessed him; all fatigue seemed banished forever, and his mind ran riot, one bizarre idea after another rapidly passing through his mind. Later his brain seemed split in two parts, one of which urged him to the performance of comic gestures, while the other as insistently hinted an impending death, and suggested restraint and instant medical advice. While waiting for a doctor he experienced alternate spells of lucidity, and periods when all connections between himself and the outside world seemed to be severed, when a chaos of disjointed ideas and wild reveries obsessed him. The duration of these iatter periods was never longer than two minutes, but each seemed an eternity. It appeared a hopeless task to follow the minute hand of his watch during its infinite round; long before the 60 seconds had elapsed he i gave up the stupendous task In deep ] despair. The departure of the doctor synchronized with the return of the reeling of impending death, now most horribly intense. He imagined himself surrounded by grotesque, menacing, cruel-vlsaged monsters. He felt himself expai*fft«|t dilating, dissolving into space, ssftsV ascended steep precipices, coi with Brobdignagian creatures what like lizards, overhanging enormous abysses, the whjle he was overwhelmed by a horrible,, rending, unujt« torable despair. Good Enough for the Dog. Bobby's mother was often distressed by her small son's lapses from correct speech, all the more because his reports from school were always so good. "Bobby," she said, plaintlveFy, one day, "why do you keep telling Major to 'set up* when you know 'sit up' is what you Bhould say?" "Oh, well, mother," Bobby answered hastily, "of course I have lots of grammar, but I don't like to waste it on Major when he doesn't know the difference being a dog."—Youth's Companion. Good at Figures. A lawyer in a seaport town advertised for an office boy. A lad applied for the situation who had hitherto been employed in the local fish market The boy, on being asked if he was a good writer, answered in the affirmative. "And can you do mental arithmetic?" "I think so, sir." "Well, what would 36 pounds of salmon at one-half-cent a pound be?" "Bad, sir," was the quick reply. T w n Ever Thus. "I thought you called up information for the number," said he. "Why did you quit and ring off?" "Information had either dropped dead suddenly or gone off to dinner with a friend," she replied. "I waited and waited and waited, and all I could hear was some blooming phonograph playing away." McKlnley's Thoughtfulnest. it was a blistering hot day on the sands of Camp Montauk in 1898. Fourteen thousand weak, sick or wounded soldier boys sweltered under their tentB. Down at the army depot the Second cavalry had received President McKinley and Secretary of War Alger with a great flourish of trumpets and salute of swords. Cannon were booming the president's salute, and transports in the harbor waving their flags. The president had called these 14,000 men and boys together to defend the nation. He might have been swelled with pride over the honors being paid to him. His carriage moved slowly through the deep and hot sand. The tenderness in his nature came to the surface as he leaned forward and asked Sec re tary Alger: "Have the boys plenty of waterV Mount McKinley's Difficulties. In mountain climbing the world over the climber usually arrives fresh and nnfatigued at the base of the peak he wishes to storm, and as a rule begins his ascent at a high altitude. On Mount McKinley, as described by a writer in Outing, it is the opposite. There are 25 miles of rugged foothills and glaciers to be crossed—with heavy packs—before the base of the mountain is reached, and then the climber is confronted by 18,000 feet of New Fire Escape. A Swiss engineer has perfected a new fire-escape, it consists of a series of folding ladders, attached to window frames. Each ladder reaches from one window to the next one below i t By turning a crank on any floor all of the frames beneath are unfolded In less than a minute and form a continuous means of descending to the ground. v * ¥ m W :« Had Only On* Think.

Robinson Leonard Bromfield was one of those children of fortune, who for the greater part of the year had nothing to. do. Leonard was by no means a lover of solitude, in general, yet possessing every access to the pleasures of society and companionship, he •was suddenly seized, one gay and charming summer, with the desire for solitary rambling apart from the noisy world, so he bade farewell to the haunts of city and fashion, and buried himself In the peaceful shelter of a rural hamlet. , It was on a certain day when, having Bought refuge from an ardent August sun, Leonard stood in the Brushville store, idly awaiting the mail. It was on the glass show-case that his eye was resting, and upon a certain white envelope, which he was morally sure had presented itself to his vision innumerable times before; yet for the first time it seemed actually demanding his attention. A rather soiled and crumpled missive, but inscribed distinctly with the address: Miss Dorothea Wlnthrop, N ville, Va. Half unconsciously he had read these same words repeatedly, but unobserved hitherto, a few less legible pen-strokes on the corner of the envelope now attracted his glance. In 'It That tetter Want of a cramped and apparently nervous hand was1 traced the old-timed entteaty, "In haste f" "In haste," repeated Leonard, smiling involuntarily at the Innocent device. Another glance, and quickly he aeted the absence of the customary stamp. Turning abruptly to the store-keeper leaning idly over the counter, Leonard asked, briefly: "Is that letter detained only for torant of a stamp?" "That's a^l," replied the other, serenely. "It was dropped In the mail box, Just aa you see it, two weeks ago, and I put it there, in full sight, thinking whoever mailed it would ^probably see and rectify the mistake." "Two weeks!" repeated Leonard, meditatively, "and all for the want of a two-cent stamp! Why, man, I Should think you would have put one On yourself," he added, with fine disregard of the principles of finance. "Well, hardly," replied the postmaster, coolly, "not if you had to hartdle a dozen or so letters a week. Xet me begin that, and half the letters would come in minus a stamp^' "Well, put one on now, at any rate," said Leonard, promptly laying a coin on the counter;/'two weeks, indeed, for a letter in haste! Why, thereJs no telling what is being withheld .from Miss Dorothea Winthrop!" It was Wednesday on which this "little occurance had stirred, for a moment, the surface monotony of Leonard's existes**; but by Friday it had quite slipped from his mind, and was not even recalled as once more he •Btood at the door of the store, sereneay awaiting the coach, which was already approaching at its own deliberate paoe. A moment later, and the mail-bag was swnng into the hand outstretched to receive it; but, contrary to the usual routine, the driver did not at once direct his course to the stable, for the needed change of horses. Leaving his box, he proceeded to the door at the rear of the vehicle to assist a passenger to alight, a slight, jrlrlish form, and a pale, timid face looked anxiously about With tremulous eagerness marking voice and manner, the turned to the AMraftt by-stander. , "Can yoa toll me how far It 4a to (Copyright, by Joseph B. Bowler) R,edbank Farm, and where I can get a conveyance to take me there?" The man thus addressed did not reply uncivilly, but with the Indifference common to those unaccustomed to Interesting themselves in the af fairs of others. "It is five miles to Redbank Farm," he answered, briefly, "and there is no way to get there that I know on." "But I must go there and at once," stye said, earnestly; "cannot you help me?" and with this she turned to another, with imploring eyes. Leonard Bromfield had stood by, a silent listener. Advancing quickly to her side, he said, courteously: "I think perhaps I can assist you. At the place where I am boarding there is an old buggy and horse, and if I can procure its use and you will accept my services, I will gladly drive you to the farm mentioned." The soft gray eyes were lifted to his face with a glow of trust and gratitude that would have repaid the speaker for a far greater offer. "Oh, I cannot tell you how grateful I should be," she said, fervently, "and perhaps I could sit here in the store, till you have made inquiry." 'Undoubtedly," replied Leonard, promptly, and escorting his protege to a seat within, he hastened away in her service. The ready sympathy and aid accorded her in Eer dire need, had ouickly won the confidence of his fair companion, and her ardent appreciation of the kindness thus bestowed, inspired the desire to render herself as agreeable and as little burdensome as possible; and ere a mile lay behind them, her little story had been briefly confided; how her father, being in adverse circumstances, had left her three months before in N ville, with friends, while he had gone out in the country to begin life anew. As the villagers had informed him, the road was neither difficult nor obscure, and in little more than an hour he drew rein before the comfortable looking country house known as Redbank Farm. Almost before he could assist her, his eager companion had sprang lightly to the ground, and was already at door, while Leonard more deliberately aecujed. the horse. Ho could not bring himself to leave her thus abruptly, without at least learning the result of nor fears for the one so dear to her. Advancing therefore to the door through which he had seen her disappear, he was met by a woman whose kind face betokened unmistakable gravity. "It is fortunate you have brought her," she said, with the ready communicativeness common to rural districts, and evidently supposing that Leonard had accompanied her young visitor as a friend or relative. "The poor man has been callin' for her day and night, and I hope now he'll die peaceful." "What!" cried Leonard, with startled emotion that surprised himself, "do you mean to say he is so ill as that?" "So ill." repeated his hostess. "Why, he cannot last more'n an hour, I should say. Why was his girl so alow In comin'? I wrote a letter for him myself, when he was first took, near three weeks ago, and I took care to write on the back of it: 'in haste!'" "For the simple reason that the letter did not reach her till yesterday," replied Leonard, almost resentfully. "How could it go through the mall with no stamp upon it?" "No stamp!" repeated the woman, a look of deep contrition suddenly overspreading her* countenance. "DeaT, deary! I never thought o* that! I haven't wrote a letter since I Va* a girl, when they used to be paid' for at the other end. I never thought o' the stamp!" She turned hastily', away, And Leonard instinctively followed to the room, near by, where as she softly opened the door, they both stood motionless on the threshold. It was truly a scene to move the stoniest heart. With a reckless hand the girl had tossed her bat aside, and kneeling on the floor at the bedside, her head was buried on the breast of the sick man, his wan hand resting caressingly but helplessly on the soft brown tresses. But on his pallid face, worn by illness and many a trace of sorrow, beamed now a smile of Ineffable peace and satisfaction, while in whispers came the words: "I knew you would come, my darling; I knew I could not go without seeing you once more." Heart-broken sobs convulsing the slight young, form alone answered him, till at, last came the cry. "Oh, father, do not leave me! You will not die and leave me all alone?" The piteous appeal seemed suddenly to disturb that rapture of pence which the fulfillment of his ceaaele** prayer had brought, and over the dying face crept a visible *had>. Helplessly he gaied upon the bead pillowed on his breast, and then as. with mute supplication he raised bis dim eyes; they fell by chance aa it were, full on Leonard's pitying face. In a moment the latter stood beside him. I am a stranger to you and your daughter," he said, soothingly, "but if I can do anything for you, you have only to ask." "Only be a friend to her If you can/* whispered the dying man, with painful effort, increased by the emotion stirred within him, and with one more glance of utterable love upon her he was leaving, hla eyes closed, and the stillness of death fell softly upon the sick room. Through all the autumn and winter months that followed, faithfully he discharged the trust so generously undertaken, proving himself the safest of friends and counsellors. In the spring suddenly Leonard awoke to find himself a prisoner fast caught in the net which Love had woven of threads spun by chance.

CJapg! sounded the bell of the Methodist church early the other morning. Instantly the village sprang from its profound sleep, for the church bell is its fire alarm. Clinton has no fire department or water system, but every man here is a volunteer fireman, and when the church bell calls him helps to form* a. bucket brigade which draws from a well. So every man jumped into his clothes and ran toward the church. No one could find the fire, but the bell kept on ringing spasmodically. Now it would peal half a dozen times rapidly, then remain silent for an interval, then toll slowly and mournfully. Henry Van Ness, sexton of the church, and Giles Van Riper went to the church and climbed to the belfry. There they found a huge white owl swinging from a loose strand of the bell rope. In its struggles to get free the bird had died by bursting a blood vessel. Eddyatone Lighthouse. The first Eddystone lighthouse was erected by Wlnstanley in 1696-1 TOO. It was built of wood, on a stone base, and stood 100 feet high; It was washed away by a storm in November, 1703. The next lighthouse, also of wood with a stone base, was built 1706-9, by Mr. Rudyerd, a silk mercer. It was de* stroyed by fire in 1755. The third Eddystone, noted for its strength, and the engineering skill displayed in it, was constructed by Smeaton in 1757-59, on model, it is said, of the trunk of the oak tree. The tower, 85 feet bigh, had a diameter of 26% feet at the base, and 15 feet at the top. The light, 72 feet above the water, was visible at a distance of 13 miles. Owing to the action of the sea on the foundation, a new lighthouse was erected on a different part of the reef in 1879-82, by Sir James N. Douglass, F. R. S. It has an elevation of 133 feet, and can be seen at a distance of 17½ miles in clear weather. On the completion of the new tower, Smeaton's building was taken down to the level of the first room, and the lower part still stands as a landmark. A Watch in the Night.

And so It comes about I understand A groat deal that the trees say, and the stars; And oftentimes it seems to me That I rest better in that hour I am awake Than all the seven I am sound asleep. —Isabella Howe .Flake, in the Craitaman. applications in Western Canada. Thei following letter Is an illustration. 'The writer, Mr. Gerts, left Chicago a short time ago and the success he has achieved may well be gained by anyone having pluck and energy by locating on the free homestead lands in Western Canada. A change recently made in the Canadian Land Regulations concerning homesteads makes it possible for any member of a family to make entry for any other member of the family entitled to a homestead. For instance, a man may now make entry before the local agent for his father or for his brother or brothers, or for his son or sons, or for a sister or daughter who may be the head of the family having minor children depending upon her for support. A sister, daughter or mother are also entitled to make entry upon a homestead. The only fee required is $10.00 for each entry. A great saving in railway expenses is thus made. Read what Mr. Gerts has to say: Battleford, Sask., Aug. 4, 1907. Dear Sir:— Thinking a letter from us Northwest settlers might Interest you, and I write a few lines and let you know we are progressing finely and well pleased with our new home. ?*^- • <**• When I think of the many hard working, industrious men east with families who are struggling for.a living and doing the strenuous, laying up practically nothing for qld age and the thousands of acres of land here yet to be plowed and cultivated capable of raising Blxty to eighty bushels of oats, thirty to forty bushels of wheat, it certainly seems a pity the two cannot be brought together. But I will repeat, this country Is only for the industrious and thrifty; also I might add, it requires some capital to start. A man should have at least a team of three good horses; better to have mares so as to have some colts coming along each year. It is best to bring them with him as work horses are high. He should be able to purchase plow, disc and drag, harrow, drill, binder and hay rake. Of course several taking up claims or buying 4and near together can divide up the purchasing of the above machinery and exchange work. This plan will work well for a few years or until crops will warrant each individual td purchase a full outfit. We have 4S0 acres of as good farm land as lies In the famous Cut Knife district. Every foot can be plowed. Last year our oats run 60 bushels per acre. I sold them for 50c per bushel on the place. The indications are for a good crop this year, though we were very late in seeding owing to the late spring. Last winter was the coldest known in this country by the oldest settlers (some who have been here 35 years), • but with a comfortable house ' and plenty of firewood, which we hauled four miles, we passed the winter quite pleasantly. The air is clear and dry. Some of the days I came from work I was surprised to find the thermometer registering 40° below zero. Though we never keep fire at night, we had nothing freeze in our cellar. Our stock and chickens wintered fine. I have a yearling heifer, who |fa> Revival Hymn.

Last season Mrs. G. canned *Jft* of them, and we have enjoyed thegt «a> to the fresh crop, I am sorry I did not have time this past season to aucud to transplanting trees, but will keep the land I had prepared worked up for next season's planting. I received a number of small trees (ash and maple) from the Government Experimental Farm at Indian Head. I put them around the edge of the garden and they are doing fine.. I also received quite a lot of other seeds, oats, wheat, potatoes and rhubarb roots whfch were acceptable. It Is useless for us to bother with garden flowers as wild ones grow in profusion. We are located near a fine creek, the water of which is soft and fine for bathing and washing. We have* a well of water near the house, 32 feet deep and 21 feet of water all the time, though it is harder than the N creek water. Land which could be bought for five dollars per' acre three years ago is now worth 914 per acre and steadily advancing each year. All kinds of improvements are going on. Steam plows and large threshing outfits are already in. Roads are being graded, bridges being built across river8 and creeks. Last year I took my family, also wagon, across the Saskatchewan river in a row boat, swam my team across and now the contract has been let for 9200,000 bridge at that place. The C. N. R. have run their final survey from Battleford to Calgary, running west about one mile north of us. The C. P. R. have run a survey, which runs northwest passes about 500 feet from the northeast corner of our farm. The country will soon be covered with a net work of railroads and it will keep them busy hauling the output of grain. It is certainly encouraging to us settlers. Two years ago, Harry,*my son, and I as you know unloaded our car at Saskatoon and drove 130 miles to our claim. La«t fall we had only 18 miles to haul onr wheat to railroad and as you see, the prospects are we will have a railroad at our very door and a town near-by. This district can support a good town and it will be well patronized. Harry arrived home at 12 p. m. last night after going fourteen miles to blacksmith shop to get plowshares beat out. The shop was full of work and it was eight p. m. when Harry left for home and parties still in line to have work done. We wHl need stores nearer and good mechanics. We are all enjoying the beat of health which is a great blessing. When we left Chicago over a year ago my youngest son's (four years of age) health was so poor that I almost despaired of raising hliri, but he Is certainly a hearty, healthy little fellow now; The pure fresh air has done him worlds of good. So to sum up the whole. Why should we not be glad we made the break? A good farm, stock increasing, health and an Independent life. Whait more can we expect? Did we have to make an effort? You can bet we did and hustle, too. Should you pass this way with your shotgun this fall, we should be pleased to let you shoot prairie chickens off our grain stocks. R-espectfully yours, CHAS. M.

"' era of the Methodist mission, took 'her to Miss Howe, in Kiukiang, and asked that she he trained for the medical profession. At 19 ehe entered Michigan university on English examination, graduating with her degree of ML D. four years later. Dr. Stone then returned to Kiukiang, where she has had charge of the hospital work for the last ten years. In the same city, in the same year that Mary Stone was born, another baby girl of the same family name came into the worli, but this little one was born into a heathen home. "RH Kuliang," as ehe is called, lost her father when very young, and the mother at once vowed she would never remarry, but devote her life to searching for the true religion, adopting the life, customs and dress of the Taolst nun. In a very pretty little home on the outskirts of the city this woman lived a life of utter seclusion, her one companion being her little daughter, who, as she grew older and proved to be a beautiful girl, was educated in her home, and taught the three religions of the east; and she, too, adopting the ugly garb of the TaoiBts, became known, like her mother, as a "truthseeker." The reputation of the two women for their piety came to the ears of the emperor, who ordered that his seal be placed over the gate, thus insuring their safety from molestation. For many years the Christian members of the Stone family sought to gain admittance to the home, but it was not until two years ago that the door was opened to them. And since then God has used the dear little doctor- cousin to effect a change, says the Christian Herald. The free, happy life of Dr. 8tone attracted the little nun, and the gay, almost childlike spirit of the Christian, with her bright face and merry laughter, soon drew forth the confidence of the lonely recluse. First came the interchange of calls, and Rli Kuliang became intensely interested in the beautiful work of her cousin, spending hours following her about the hospital. Then the Bible was Introduced and a copy placed in the hands of the "truth-seeker." Last winter, just a short time before Dr. Stone started for America, Ril Kuliang accepted an Invitation to come to our home in the medical compound, and for a week the timid, shrinking little Taoist nun lived and slept in the home of Christians, the first time in her life away from the idols, Here she saw the free, happy, useful life of her cousin- Each morning she attended prayers, hearing the sweet songs of faith and love. A few dayB after our visitoT had returned to her home we went to call on her at "Purity Hair' A bright, eager face welcomed us. The mother said to Dr. Stone: "Since Rii Kuliang came back from yoqr house, she hasn't been near her idols once!" PROGRESS OF KINGDOM. "It abid,eth alone" explains aw*j some lives'.

And though I will not rank myself in the number of the first, yet give me leave to free myself from the last, by offering to you a short contemplation, first of rivers, and then of fish; concerning which I doubt not but to give you many observations that will appear very considerable; lam sure they have appeared so to me, and made many an hour pass away more pleasantly, as I have sat quietly on a flowery bank by a calm river.—Isaac Walton. New tn Natural History. Not all English children are well posted on live stock. The following "howlers'' are from essays exhibited at a recent show: "The young horses have long legs, so that it might keep up to its mother when wild lions like the lion and tiger are after them to devour them." "The fowl," declares still another, "when alive is used for cock-fighting and when dead for its beautiful feathers." "The pig gets its wool coat off in summer. Then we get the wool of it.

Congressman James B. Watson of the Sixth Indiana district told a story while in town recently, anent the operation of the pure food law, and intended to illustrate his expressed theory that more people would be good if they had to be. "It was while we were wrestling with the pure food bill at Washington," he said, "that I got a letter from home, written by a man from whom I bought a big quantity of maple sirup each year. He urged me to fight for the pure food bill. Now, I couldn't help remembering, to save my life, that this man bought five barrels of brown Bugar at the opening of the maple molasses season. So I wrote him a note suggesting that advocacy of a pure food measure seemed odd from a man who bought five barrels of brown sugar before beginning the manufacture of his pure maple sirup. "Never feazed him. He turned my letter over and wrote on the back: 'I know it, but I want the law to make me do right.' "—Indianapolis News. T H R E E BOYS H A D ECZEMA.

There is a good old lady who cannot resist speaking well of all her acquaintances. On Thanksgiving day she told the colored man who did chores about the place that he might go into the barnyard and help himself to a chicken. The man obeyed with alacrity and was most profuse in his thanks. In the course of a few days the lady's husband informed her tbat on Thanksgiving day neighbors had seen Mr. Johnson seize two choice hens from the coop. "I did tell him to take one," confessed the lady regretfully, "but, you know, dear, how intensely Mr. Johnson celebrates the holidays. Why, he simply cannot help seeing things double."

While on a visit to my brothers I had a good chance to try Postum Pood Coffee, for they drank it altogether in place of ordinary coffee. In two weeks after using Postum I found I was much benefited and finally my headaches disappeared and also the Indigestion. "Naturally I havo since used Postum among my patients, and hav* noticed a marked benefit where coffee has been left off and. Postum used. "I observed a curious fact about Postum when used among mothers. It greatly helps the flow cf milk in cases where coffee is inclined to dry it up, and where tea causes nervousness. "I find trouble in getting servants to make Postum properly. They most always serve It before it has been boiled long enough.

"Really! You don't mean it!" cried the Englishwoman. "I'm very sorry." A day or so later the Englishwoman, happening to meet the wife of t h e man in question, observed that she w a s so sorry to hear that Mr. Blank was ill. "But he isn't!" cried t h e wife* " H e waB never better in his life." "Is that so?" said t h e Englishwoman. "Why, what could Mrs. Dash have meant the other day when she said he was suffering from a swelled head?" Books Bound In Lead. A bookbinder was putting a binding of lead on a book. "Why lead?" a visitor asked. "This," the binder answered, "is a naval code br>ok for use on a battleship. All such volumes are bound in lead." "But why?" "So that in the event of the ship's destruction the books will sink with it, for they contain secrets of immense value, a n d every precaution must be taken to keep those secrets dark." His Narrow Escape. A jolly old steamboat captain with more girth than height w a s asked If he had ever had any very narrow escapes. "Yea," he replied, his eyes twinkling, "once I fell off my boat a t t h e mouth of Bear creek, and, although I'm an expert swimmer, I guess I'd be there ; now If It hadn't been for my crew.

Most Respy Yours, A good "bluff," but it worked, and as a result Albert VVorden, of Gregory was safely landed behind the bars of the Chelsea jail within 24 hours after he broke into Watson'3 general store at U»nadilla, Monday night, and secured $140 in cash, $25 dollars worth of paper and a jack-knife. The only cine that the officers had was that Worden had performed a similar feat at Gregory on another occasion. Deputy Sheriff Leech went directly to the farm of Steven Hadley, about two miles southwest of Unadilla wh jre Worden was employed, and demanded the money. He weakened at once and shortly went to the bay stack gulled forth a grain sack containing the entire $146 and handed it over tD Lee^h. The papers were found afterwards in a nearby ditch. Watson came to Chelsea yesterday and swore out a warrent tor Worden. Worden admitted gaining entrance to the store by a rear window and removing the bottom of the cash register with a screw driver and hammer.—Chelsea Tribune.

An epidemic of thieving seems to be going on throughout the county and it is getting to be quite monotonous.

C WTatson of [Jnadilia was broken into as recorded elsewhere. Party caught. Last Friday night the lumber office of S. B. Rufcert of Howell was broken into and the safe blown open the parties securing only a little over $8. No clue. Sunday morning the old driving horse belonging to S. G. Teeple and kept on the farm was missing, ft was traced tor some distance but as we go to press they have not found it. The horse was of but little value but was raised by them and bein« kind was much thought of. The same evening that the Teeple horse was taken an attempt was made to taite a colt from the barn of Steve VanHorn near therp but he must have got away as the strap was cut and the animal loose in the yard.

PINCKNBY, MICHIGAN A Woman Without Hom« Duties. ' A woman who has no home duties, or who does not attend to such duties, is a ptsst to her acquaintances. It may take her a long time to make her breakfast toilet, but her outside garmentB go on like magic when she has once decided to make a morning or afternoon call. She will not work, and she will not let her neighbors work. Her acquaintances are kept in a state of chronic discomfort In the expectation of a visit, and a doorbell in her vicinity cannot ring without striking terror to the heart of the lady of the house. A call from this idle person means simply loss of time without the slightest compensation. The work In the kitchen or the nursery must be abandoned, and this means, with practical, conscientious housekeepers, not only a giying up of the work for the time, but for a considerable time. The work planned for that day, and omitted for that day, means overwork at another time, confusion and anxiety. What can be more exasperating than to be compelled to entertain an Idle person to the neglect of necessary duties? It occasionally arouses all the antagonism and latent ugliness in one's nature. Hands and brain are all ready for the work which has been deferred for this time. "When will Bhe go?" the spirit keeps asking. "If she will only go now I can rush through with the work, and the morning will not be a lost one." But the visitor does not go. In fact, it is a rare thing for this particular kind of caller to take her leave until the utmost limit of time is reached, as well as the u t - most limit of her hostess' patience. So, declares the New York Weekly, sensible ladies protect themselves by feeling at liberty to report that they are engaged when the idle woman thrusts her company upon people who do not admire her or her conversation. Department Store at Close Rang*. Because it is volume of business that counts, every department store, of course, tries to keep stock as low as possible. Everything must be kept moving. Under the old system a store would buy a whole year's supply of staples and a season's supply of other goods. But it is not so now, and the modern method throws upon the shoulders of manufacturer and wholesaler the risks that formerly were assumed by the retail store, to the grave disorganization of the business of those who supply the big stores. Most women know that as a rule the things offered in bargain sales are sold below the actual cost of manufacture, says Harley Davis in Everybody's. Now the bargain Bale Is popularly supposed to serve a double purpose—to attract people to the store and to get rid of old goods. The first proposition Is always true, while the latter applies to only about one-tenth of the bargain sales. The manufacturer stands the loss, for there is a very considerable IOSB, of the other nine-tenths. It IB axiomatic among the department store owners that there is always a manufacturer who is willing to sell some of his output at a great sacrifice. It may ba because he finds himself stocked with goods for which there is no demand at the prices for which they were made to sell; oftener, he is hard pressed for ready money. But whatever the cause, the result is a bargain sale in a department store. And in all cases, except the one bargain sale in ten, by which the store is getting rid of its own goods that haven't been sold, the establishment makes its regular standard profit. It is stated that English scientists are giving Lowell observatory credit for establishing the existence of artificial canals on Mars, and English physicians and artists are endorsing Prof. Starr's theory that children should go naked for ten years or so. Thanks, awfully; but America in general would prefer credit for the Panama canal and Its unrivaled lines of children's clothing, both of which are better suited to plain, everyday navigation than the ideas advanced in England. America has some hrilliant thinkers, but its long suit is common sense. LATEST NEWS OF M i l S T A T E T A X E 8 ARE INCREASED ONE AND O N E H A L F MILLIONS.

Doyle is again a free man. "I'm going back to Cheboygan and let everybody alone," said Doyle, shortly after his release. "I won't molest my wife again. I don't know where she is now and I don't want to see her. I do want my children, though. If it hadn't been for them I wouldn't have lived to serve the sentence out. I'm going to get them too, but I'll try legal means this time. It was pretty hard work here in the pen. My! the flowers look pretty again, don't they?" He shuddered. "Let's go," he said.

In Saginaw the Democrats elected two candidates, W. R. Burt and E. A. Snow, and in four districts they elected one candidate, if Kinuane and Cavanaugh prove to have been elected.

Vlckeryville is under the guard of armed citizens against a gang of bold thieves, and the village and all woods in the vicinity are surrounded. Four of the alleged burglars, are under arrest and a bloodhound will be put on the trail of the others. The first depredation was committed at Carson City Tuesday night, when the gang descended on the depot and burglarised the office, making little effort to do it secretly. Later they moved toward Vlckeryville, aad two men were caught white In the act of robbing a house while the occupants were asleep. They were placed In Jail, and when reports of t h e Carson City robbery and the site of the band were received the citizens armed themselves and went out la saarch of tham Vslue of the NtfUppUM* Admiral Dewey deflnej bis position i n reference to the Philippines and de* *fiares strongly agatest t h e abandon- •Maft-or the'islands. He s a y s : "Every o«e •xmcodes that the orient l i t h e future great field for the principal commercial nations of the world? We ought to be the leaders, but we must at least have a share In the enterprise, and in order to do so we must maintain the position .we have occupied through force of circumstance* in that region. Suppose we should dis* pose of the Philippines and Japan should acquire them? See how t h e islands stretch along the coaaf. Here are the Japanese islands, here is Formosa, which Japan owns, and then come the Philippines, ft Japan had them she would command every gateway to the orient and the United States would be completely shut out. "I do not believe tfcst our country will ever abandon the Philippines," said the admiral. "We already have too much at stake to withdraw from the Islands. It Is only our control over the Philippines that makes it possible for us to insist upon the open door in the east, toward whioh our diplomacy has been directed for a number of years. We want our share of the enormous commerce of the east and we cannot keep the open door for it unless we hold the islands." Cassis's Bluff Failed., A suspicious and shrewd prison doctor caught Cassie Chadwick, serving a term in the Ohio penitentiary, in her attempt to secure sympathy and release by feigning UlnesB and faking blindness. So she will be put at work again. The record's of Mrs. Chadwick's alleged confinement as Madame Devere many years ago show that she succeeded in getting a parole on t h e ground of ill health. At that time she fooled the medical staff by wellshammed sicknesB. It was this history that caused the suspicion that she was trying the same old dodge, and t h e plan of the physician proved its correctness. Next week Mrs. Chadwick will be back at her task of sewing for the rest of the inmates of the big prison. An Illegal Trust. Assessing penalties aggregating '$1,- 800,000, Chancellor Hicks at Vicksburg, Mies., declared the Gulf Compress Co., an illegal t r u s t and gave the corporation one year to wind up its business in the state and withdraw. He denied the application for a receiver. The ouster suit was brought directly as the result of the purchase of an independent compress at Vicksburg. The Mississippi anti-trust law prohibits one corporation from purchasing the Interests of a competitive corporation. THE MARKETS.

"All right, Fred," I answered. "I will go over to Bob's right now. I hate to do it, but there Is no other hope." I dropped the receiver and Btarted for Bob's office. As I went through his counting-room one of the clerks said, "They have just broken Anti- People'B to 90 on a bulletin that Tom Reinhart'8 wife and only daughte/ have been killed in an automobile accident at their place In Virginia. They first had it that Relnhart himself was killed. That has been corrected, although the latest word is that he la prostrated." I rapped on Bob's private-office door. I felt the coming struggle as I heard his hoarse bellow, "Come in." He stood at the ticker, with the tape In one hand, while with the other he held the telephone receiver to his ear. My God, what a picture for a stage! His magnificent form was erect, his feet were as firmly planted as if he were made of bronze, his shoulders thrown back as If he were withstanding the rush of the Stock Exchange hordes, his eyes afire with a Bullen, smouldering blaze, his jaw was set in a way that brought into terrible relief the new, hard lines of desperation that had recently come into his face. His great chest was rising and falling as though he were engaged In a physical struggle; his perfect-fitting, heavy hlack Melton cutaway coat, thrown back from the chest, and a low, turn-down white collar formed the setting for a throat and head that reminded one of a forest monarch at hay on the mountain crag awaiting the coming of the hounds and hunters. I hesitated at the threshold to catch my breath, as I took in the terrific figure. Had Bob Brownley been an enemy of mine I should have backed out in fear, and I do not confess to more than my fair share of cewardice. Inwardly I thanked God that Bob was in his office instead of on the floor of the Exchange. His whole appearance was frightful. Ho showed in every line and lineament that he was a man who would hesitato at nothing, even at killing, if he should find a human obstacle in his road and his mind should suggest murder. He was the personification of the most awful madness. Even when he caught sight of me, he hardly moved, although my coming must have been a surprise. "So it is you, Jim Randolph, is it? What brings you here?" His voice was hoarse, but it had a metallic ring that went to my marrow. Bob Brownley in all the years of our friendship had never spoken to me except In kind and loving regard. I looked at him, stunned. I must have shown how hurt I was. But if he saw it, he gave no sign. His eyes, looking straight into mine, changed no more than If he had been addressing his deadliest enemy. Again his voice rang out, "What brings you here? Do yon come to plead again for that dastard Relnhart after the warning I gave you?" I clenched both hands until I felt the nails cut the flesh of my palms. I loved Bob Brownley. I would have done anything to make him happy, would willingly have sacrificed my own life to protect his from himself or others, but this madman, this wild brute, was no more Bob Brownley as I had known him than the howling northeast gale of Pecember is the gentle, welcome zephyr of August; and I felt a resentment at' his* brutal speech that I could hardly suppress. With a mighty effort t crushed it back, trying to think of nothing but his awful misery and the Bob of our college days. I said in a firm voice, "Bob, ia this the way to talk to me in your own office?" At any time before, my words and tone would have touched his allgenerous southern chivalry, but now he said harshly—"To hell with sentiment. What—" He did not take his eyes from mine, but they told me that he was listening to a voice in the receiver. Only for a second; then he let loose a wild" laugh, which must have penetrated to the outer office. "Eighty and coming like a spring freshet," he said into the mouthpiece, "and the boysc want to know if I won't let up now that Relnhart is down? Go back and smother them with all they will take down to 60. That's my answer. Tell them if Relnhart had ten more wives and daughters and they were all killed, I'd rend his damned trust to help hfm dull his sorrow. Give the,word at every pole that I will have Relnhart where he wltl curse his luck that be was not in the automobile W ^ the rest, of his tribe— "To hell wfth sentiment!*' He was speaking to me again. "What do yon want? If you are here to beg for Relnhart and his pack of yellow cum, you've got your answer. I wouldn't let up on that fiendish hyena, not if his wife and daughter and all the dead wives and daughters of every 'System' man came back in their grave clothes and begged, I wouldn't let up a share." 1 gasped in horror. "When did these robberB of men and despoilers of women and children ever let up because of death? When were they ever known to wait even till the corpse stiffened to pluck out the hearts of the victims? It is my turn now, and if I let up a hair may I, yes, and Beulah, too, be damned, eternally damned." I could not stand It. If I stayed, I, too, should become mad. I reached for the doorknob, but before I could swing the door open Bob was upon me like a wolf. He grasped me by the shoulders and with the strength tear* were dropping. silently. I touched him on the •boulder., "Bob, my dear old chum. Bob, forgive me. Kor God's sake, forgiyj me for Intruding on your misery." I looked at him. I will naver forgot his face. No haartbrokan woman's could have been sadder. He slowly raised his head, then staggered and grasped the ticker-stand for support. "Don't, Jim, don't—don't ask me to forgive you. Oh, Jim, Jim, my ok) friend, forgive me for my madness; forget what I said to you, forget the brute you Just saw and think of me as of old, when I would have plucked out my tongue if I had caught it saying a harsh word to the best and truest friend man ever had. Jim, forget it all. I was mad, I am mad, I have been mad for a long time, but it cannot last much longer. I know it can't, and^ Jim, by all our past love, by the memories of the dear old days at St. Paul's and at Harvard, the dear old days of hope and happiness, when we planned for the future, try to think of me only aa you knew me then, as you know that I should now be, but for the 'System's' curse." The clerks were pounding on the door; through the glass showed many forms. They had been gathering for minutes while Bob talked In his low, sad tone, a tone that no one could believe came from the name mouth that a few moments before had poured forth a flood of brutal heartlessuess. Bob went to the door. The office was In an uproar. Twenty or 30 of Bob's brokers were there, aghast at not getting a reply to their calls. Many were pouring in through the "No, You Don't Jim Randolph, No, You Don't. of a madman hurled me half across the room. I sank Into a chair. "No, you don't, Jim Randolph, no, you don't. You came here for something and, by heaven, you will tell me what it Is! You know me; you are the only human being who does. \ o u know what I was, you see what I am. You know what they did to me to make me what I am. You know, Jim Randolph, you know whether I deserved it. You know whether in all my life up to the day those dollar-frenzied hounds tore my soul, I had done any man, woman, or child a wrong. You know whether I had, and now you are going to sneak off and leave me as though I were a cur dog of the Relnhart-'Standard Oil' breed gone mad!" He was standing over me, a terrible yet a magnificent figure. As he hurled these words at me, I was sure he had really lost hla mind; that I was In the presence of a man truly mad. But only for an Instant; then my horror, my anger turned to a great, crushing, all-consuming agony of pity for Bob, and I dropped my head on my hands and wept. It Is hard to admit it, but it is true—I wept uncontrollably. In an instant the room was quiet, except for the sound of my own awful grief. I heard it, was ashamed of it, but I'could not stop. The telephone rang again and again, wildly, shrilly, but there was no answer. The stillness became so oppressive that even my own sobs quieted. I gasped as the lump in my throat choked me, then I slowly raised my eyes. Bob's towering figure was in front of me. His head had fallen forward, and his arms were folded across his breast. But that ho stood erect 1 should have thought him dead, so still was he. I jumped to my feet and Idbked into his face, daw* wale* great outer office. Bob looked at them coldly. "Well, what is the trouble? Is It possible we are down to a point where the stock exchange rushes over to a man's office when his wire happens to break down?" They saw his bluff. You cannot deceive stock exchange men, at least not the kind that Bob Brownley employed on panic days, but his coolness reassured them, and when they saw me it was odds-on that they guessed to a man why Bob had ignored hla wires—guessed that I had been pleading for the life of "the street." "Well, where do you stand?" Frank Swan answered for the crowd: "The panic is in full swing. She's a cellar-to-ridge-pole ripper. They're down 40 or over on an average. Anti-People's is down to 35, and still coming like sawdust over a broken dam. Barry C h a n t ' s house and a dozen other of Reiahart's have gone under. His banks and trust companies are going every minute. The whole street will be overboard before the close. The governing committee has just called a meeting to see whether it will not be heat to adjourn the exchange over to-day and to-morrow." Bob listened as If he had been a master at. the wheel in a gale, receiving reports from his matea. There was no trace now of the scene he had just been through. He was cold, masterful, like the seasoned sea-dog who knows that in spite of the ocean's rage and the wind's howl, the wheel will answer his hand and the craft its rudder. "Jim, come over to the exchange." The crowd followed along. "We have but a minute and I want to have you say you forgive me," he said to me. "I know, Jim, you understand It all, but I must toll you how sorrowful I am that In my madness I should have to forgotten my admiration, respect, and love for you, yet, and my gratitude t* you, as to say what I did. I'll do the only thing I can to afaae. I will stop this panic and undtf a s much as possible of my work; 'Jtnd now that I have wrecked Relnhart I am through with thia ftame forever, yes, through forever. He pressed my hand In his strong, honest one and strode into the exchange ahead of the crowd. All was Chaos, although the trading had toned down to a sullen desperation. So many houses, banks,, and trust companies had failed that no man knew whether the member he had traded with early in the day would on the morrow be solvent enough to carry out his trades. The man who had been "long" in the morning, and had sold out before the crash, and who thought he now had no interest in the panic, found himself with his stock again on hand, because of the failure of the one to whom he had sold, and the price cut In two. The man who was "short" and who a few minutes before had been eagerly counting his profits now knew that they had been turned to loss, because the man from whom he had borrowed hlB Bhort stocks for delivery would be In no condition to repay for them, the next day, when they should be returned to him. The "short" man waa himself, therefore, "long" stocks he had bought to cover his "short" bale. In depressing the price he had been working against his own pocket Instead of againat the bulla he had thought he was opposing. All was coufuaion and black despair. There is, indeed, no blacker place than the floor of the stock exchange after a panic cyclone has awept it, and Is yet lingering in its corners, while the survivors of Its fury do not know whether or not it will again gather force. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Delivered the Goods. The late Senator M. S. Quay, of Pennsylvania, kept all the letters his constituents wrote to him asking for favors, says the Saturday Evening Post. He had stacks of them when his last great fight for the senate came along. Then he sorted out the letters, eliminating those from people who were dead and on the back of each letter wrote: "Dear John or Bill: Do you remember when you wrote me this letter and do you remember that I did what you asked? I want your help now in my tight for the senate. Can I have it?" The politicians In Pennsylvania say those letters mailed to the original senders with Quay's request on the backs of them, had as much as any one thing to do with Quay's winning his fight. ear STANDARD OIL'S GREAT PROFITS. M A D E OVER ONE T H O U S A N D PER C E N T P R O F I T 8 I N O N E Y E A R . QUEER METHODS SHOWN How the Great Combine Was Worked to Make Millions on Small Invest' ments. Were Superstitious, Too. A woman who takes ' her superstitions seriously started to enter a big department store one morning last week when she noticed a porter on a tall stepladder that stretched directly across the doorway, says the New York Press. In spite of the fact that there were five women behind her eager to pass Into the Bhop she came to a sudden halt, looked up at the ladder and cried out, "Oh, I'll never walk under that," saying which she turned and strode away. Before she had gone far her sense ot humor rose superior to her fear of ladders, and she looked to Bee if her remark had had any effect on those who had been within Bound of her voice. Walking directly behind her were the five women who had heard her exclamation. Officer's Natural Anxiety. Sir Douglass Straight told this tale at a recent dinner of the Journeymen Hairdressers' Trade society in London: When a young barrister he, went into a barber's shop to be shaved and was a little startled to see the woman cashier behind the counter staring at him from time to time through the glass door. When he got outside the shop a policeman said: "I am very glad to And you have come out." The officer explained that he had been anxious because the barber had just come out of a lunatic asylum the previous week and his relatives were wondering whether they would have to send him back again. Opening Up the Schema. More light was shed on the remarkable earning capacity of the various subsidiary companies of the Standard OH Co. wheu Frank B. Kellogg, who ia conducting the federal suit, succeeded in placing upon the record the profits of seventeen of the principal subsidiary companies in the years 1903 and 1906. The statement of earnings of the Standard Oil Co., of Indiana, which was recently fined $29,- 240,000 by Judge Landis, of Chicago, for rebating, disclosed that in 1906 the company earned no leas than $10,- 510,082, on a capitalization of $1,000,- 000, or over 1,000 per cent a year. The Indiana company In 1906 earned more than any subsidiary company of the big combine. Mr. Kellogg developed during the day, while Clarence G. Fay, assistant comptroller of the Standard Oil Co., was on the stand, a curious problem of financial bookkeeping, or handling of accounts, which Mr. Fay failed to explain. From figures submitted it was shown that the Standard Oil Co., of New York, m 1904, made a profit of $7,751,160, and paid in dividends to the Standard Oil Co., of New Jersey, the total sum of $32,998,430, This transaction reduced the net assets of the New York company from $40,425,- 900 to $15,179,706, while the liabilities leaped from $47,646,235 in 1903 to $81,395,145 in 1904, an Increase of nearly $34,000,000. The gross assets of the New York company, however, increased from $88,074,561 in 1903 to $96,574,852 in 1904. Meanwhile the accounts receivable of the Standard Oil Co., of New Jersey, grew from $19,045,014 in 1903 to $58,272,924. Mr. Fay was closely questioned as to the nature of the increased liabilities of the New York company and increase in the accounts receivable of the Standard Oil Co., of New Jersey, but be said he could not tell until he had examined the books oi both companies, which he told Mr. Kellogg he would do. Charles M. Pratt, secretary of the Standard Oil Co.. recalled to the witness stand, told how he had held for the Standard Oil Co. the stock of the Waters-Pierce Oil Co., at the time when it was not permitted to operate in the State of Texas. He said that he held the stock as a matter of convenience and not to avoid the antitrust laws of Texas. Mr. Pratt threw some interesting sidelights on the Waters-Pierce Oil Co., the stock of which was held for a long time by M. M. Van Bueren, who was not connected with the Standard Oil Co. Mr. Van Bueren purchased the stock from Mr. Pratt and early this year the Standard com-" pany bought It back. The nature of the transaction showed that Mr. Van Bueren received fro® the Standard Oil Co. exactly what he paid for the' §tock, and that during the time he held it the dividends were paid to the Standard Co. ^ Wesley Tilford, treasurer of th» Standard Oil Co., was called to the stand and Mr. Kellogg made an effort to have spread in the record a copy of the trust agreement of 1882, but John G. Mllburn, chief counsel for the defendant companies, objected on the ground that such an agreement was prior to July 2, 1890, when the Sherman anti-trust law went into effect. As testimony In the Standard Oil inquiry has developed that the earnings of the trust for the past eight years have aggregated $490,315,934, or more than $61,000,000 a year, a onefourth interest in the concern would give John D. Rockefeller an income of more than $15,000,000. This, of course, is aside from his many other investments. H;s other interests, It is said, would make his total income three times this sum. Not a Reading Community. The town of Charleroi, Pa., has a Carnegie library In which there are several thousand volumes and the town Is roundly taxed to support the Institution. Last year, according to a report by the librarian just made public, there was one solitary patron of the library. The librarian expressed the opinion that the people of the town were so much interested in roller skating, baseball games, bridge whist and poker that they had no time for books. Don't Annoy the Officers. Army officers in uniform abound in foreign cities, and in Germany they resent being stared at by tourists, often assuming threatening attitudes in retaliation. As the law permits them to Bhoot civilians on provocation, it is wise not to excite them. It is well to remember that they do not feel obliged to turn out for pedestrians* even ladies.—Travel Magazine* Jap Control of Korea. Prince Ito, the Japanese residentgeneral in Korea, said: "Japan has counted the cost of these reforms in Korea, and nothing shall prevent us from carrying them out. It is true that the Koreans themselves may prevent the accomplishment of our purpose to give them a system of government and an army of their own, but. the people of Korea and the entire world must understand, once for all, that the political supremacy of Japan in Korea is to remained firmly established. We are not asking advice from any one regarding this policy. If the people of Korea refuse to accept this fair and friendly assistance, they will hy their own act write annexation into history, for as a nation divided in sentimeut from Japan, Korea cannot stand." Thomas C. Lilly, a wealthy Dowagiac farmer, who during his lifetime has been tried and acquitted of murdering a hired man and the manslaughter of a tenant, and who drove hla wife and daughter from the house three months ago. has been adjudged insane. • > ' • ' ' .

Report to the Department of Agri culture indicate that the European wheat crop is going to be shoiter if anything than the American crop. This will mean a pretty terious shortage of wheat the world over. The only country in Europe where there wil) he more than an average crop in Russia, and that only in some places, Russia H just getting over three years of famine, uo that it will take the country more than one season to catck up. with tha domestic needs. Meantime the rest ol Europe is short and though the American crop is by no means near the record of the past three years, it is large enough to leave a comfortable margin for export to a lot of countries that would take more than we could possibly send. It looks as though there were a special providence looking after this country even when we do not have bumper crops The way to get rid of a c;ld, whether it be a u had cold" or just a little one, is to get it out of your system through the bowels.

There fs a lot of money to be made in the egg business if conditions are right. There is no reason why-Parmeri and Poultry Raisers should not make just as good profits on their investments as any other line of business, and it is possible for them to do so.

AWD ALL THROAT AND LUMTROUBLE*. QTJAKANTKED SATISTAOXOllI OB, M O N E T BJEPTJHDKD. Man's Work and Woman's / By Caroline B. LeRow (Copyright, by Juaoph B. Bowlea.) "It's just glorlouti to be independent of tim whole t r i t e or them!" Peuelopa •iclaimed, shaking the relaa over the horse's back, while she tickled him between the ears with the whip-lash. "Klk! klk! klk!" clucked Ej.hol. "Make him go faster, can't you? We shall be late to dinner." "Dinner! What's dinner compared to this discussion?" contemptuously Inquired Huldah, readjusting her spectacles. "Oh, you always enjoy talking upon your favorite topic," rejoined Ethel. "Now for my part, l'rf very far from being a man-hater. Men are very oice Indeed on some occasions, and—" "And the idea that women can't drive!" interrupted Penelope. "Why, driving is just the easiest thing—" ' -Huldah shrugged her shoulders. "Of course it's easy. The idea. But when we started off I heard one of those wretches on the plaiza uay—of course he didn't suspect that I heard him—that any woman could drive till something happened." "Something happened, indeed!" repeated Penelope, indignantly. "Oh, mercy!" scwHtaied Ethel. "See him shake his head! What do you suppose ails him?" And she wildly clutched my arm as she asked the question. "Nothing ails him," I answered, "but flies. There's nothing to be frightened at." "Don't you think he wants water?" Bhe next inquired. "It won't do any harm to try the experiment." And thus saying, Penelope drove to the side of the road •where the water gushed from a spring. The frantic plunges of the horse's head left us no doubt of his desire to drink. "But why on earth, then, don't he drink?" wailed Ethel. Penelope watched him intently. "I declare!" she burst out at last. "They must have harnessed him wrong. He can't get his head down. Isn't that too bad!" "If we only knew what the matter was," remarked practical Huldah. "Girls, did any of you ever harness a horse?" Not one of us over had. "It's a man's work to harness horses," Ethel declared, to which Huldah responded: "No more than it is to drive them." Ethel looked thoughtful. "I'm not so sure of that. It seems somehow unwomanly and—" "Unwomanly!" scoffed Huldah. "Here, Penelope, make him stand still while I get out and see." But her descent seemed the signal -for him to do the very opposite of standing still. With one more vigorous shake, he started off in spite • of a chorus of "Whoas!" from our united throats. Huldah toiled after him, panting. The sun was blazing overhead; the -dust was ankle deep under foot, and that horse wouldn't stop, except spasmodically and at long intervals, not long enough for Huldah, who occasiona l l y overtook the vehicle, to get into it. Penelope was rigid, and showed in every feature her oppressive sense of responsibility. Ethel was plainly '.frightened. "Oh, whoa! Do whoa!" burst from "her lips almost in a groan. This time he whoaed, but. wc shall never know whether it was on account of Ethel's eloquence, or the fact, first discovered by Huldah, as she came up the road, that a part of the harness was dangling around his heela. There was a general wall. "What sball we do?" "If there were only a man with us who could—" I began impulsively, then stopped.terrified at the audacity of my own tongue. The horse stood perfectly still, and for a minute we were all as still as he was, all save Huldah, who was fanning herself desperately with her hat. "Well, thia is certainly an exhilclear ringing staccato utterance of three single words: "For—a—man!" "Huldah groaned and collapsed Into a helpless heap at the roadside. Penelope held the reins gingerly. We took no note of time but from its loss; it seemed as if Ethel would never be seen again ou earth, but at last, when the hope that is said to spring eternal In the human breast neemed ready to forsake us utterly, we caught sight of her. "Man coming!" she called out brlBk, ly, as soon as she came within hearing distance. "Mau coming!" Huldah gave an unconscious sigh of satisfaction. Penelope's face brightened. "He'll be here in a minute," she explained. "1'Ye walked miles and " ' W i l l You tie So Kind,' Ses She." miles for him. There was a woman in the house I went back to, but of course she was good for nothing"— nobody »feemed to notice the innocent satire—"and I had to keep on to the hayfleld whore her husband was mowing. He's coming right along." He appeared a minute later, taking hold of the horse's head in a masterful way, while he examined what Penelope was pleased to call "his toggery." It was a rather silent party which rode on for a mile or two, after having profusely thanked the farmer, and offered him money which he refused. I felt justified in concluding that my strong minded friends were more inclined than they had ever been to modify their opinions of the utter worthlessness of men Individually and collectively. Hie Comments "You see, 'twas jest this way: Me an' Abram, we wa3 hoein' corn up in the two-acre lot when we seen a team comin* down the tnrnpike. Ses I, there's Hiram Sibley's old gray with a pussel of women folks, some of his boarders, I s'pose, goin' on a spree over the mounttng, an' a few minutes arterwards Abram ses kinder suddint like, 'What's the matter with the gray?' an' one of them gals was tearin' along the road like mad, an' the one that was drivin', she kep' pullin* the reins, an' calc'lated tryin' to atop the wagon. Abram he made out as how the gals were likely 'nuff foolin" an' then they turned a corner an' we SLODGILBY'S H A T S Y S T E M . It Might Not Commend Itself to A l l , but It Was Satisfactory to H i m . "Pretty foxy, my way of buying straw hats, don't you think?" said Mr. Slodgllby to a New York Sun man. "I buy only one straw hat a year and I buy that one always at aratInV'BUuation,""Bho""'rcmaVked"at|a n o u t t h e middle of July at. the time last. It certainly was. Every sane person would have agreed with her. Six miles at. least from home, the same number from the place where we were Intending to dine, and over a mile from the nearest house. "We can't stay here all day. We shall have roast, goose for dinner if we do," jocosely ventured Penelope, and we tried our best to laugh at her little witticism. Ethel was the pedestrian of the party, and rose equal to the emergency. In some way she clambered over the hind wheel of the carriage. "Where arc you going?" some one askftd feebly, but the answer came with no uncertain sound. It was a of the first markdown in price of the straw-hat season; so I always get my straws at. about 25 per cent, off the regular price. "An advantage, that, to save a quarter in the price? Surely; and now see how buying at. that, time works out in other ways. "Hy the middle of July the straw hats of most people, who buy only one hat. a year, have generality begun to show signs of wear, certainly so if their wearers have ever been caught in a shower; and so then, when everybody else's hat. is getting old I spring a fresh one on 'em, ft brand-new hat; like a man who, his first hat having got dusty, had just casually sauntered Into the hat em* didn't see no mora of them. Wall, 'twan't more'u an hour or mebbe threequarters before I saw a gal comin' along where we was, lopkin' all beat out but dredful putty, with cheeks as red as roses, an' little curls all over her forehead; an' she ses to me, an' her voice was as sweet as the rest of her, only she was out of breath: 'Will you be so kind,' ses she, 'to come an' see what's the matter with our horse? His things are all fallln' off'n him.' An' I a'most roared, an' I guess you would if she hadn't been so distressed like, an' I jest up an' said of course I'd come, but I guessed I'd better run to the barn fust an' git something to fix the harness ef it's broke, an' she went on ahead. Wall, when I got there, there wa'n't nothin' the matter but jest a hole broke out of a strap an' let the brichln' down, an' there wa'n't one of them putty gala kuowed enough to punch another with a penknife and fix it up again, an' ef that old gray'd run they'd hev been in kingdom come in no time, for he'd have kicked things to smithereens. It was jest heaven's providence that they wa'n't goin' down hill an' that he stood still, anyway. Now thar's a lot o' talk these times about women an' their spears, an' they're bein' ministers, an' ductors, an' what not, an' there's them as sets up It ain't becomin' for women to do anything but cook an' sew an' wash the dishes, an' bring up the children, but I'd jest like to know why. I can't see no sense in thinkln" that women ain't as good as men any day, an' in my opinion it would go putty hard with the world if most of them wa'n't anuff sight better. I don't think it wuth while for men to make a business of rockin' the cradle while the women all go to pitchin' hay—not on gin'ral principles —but there's times when a shower's comin' up that it's a good idee for the women folks to know how to help git in the load, an' then there's other times when it won't do no harm for the men folks t o know how to straighten up the baby. Now those there gals; d'ye s'pose 'twould hurt 'em any to know how to buckle a strap, or uncheck a horse, or hitch him into a team, if their husbands were took sick all of a sudden and there wa'n't no one to go for a doctor? Wall, I don't, an' you can't make me believe there's sech an everlastin' sight o' difference between a man's work an' a woman's, ef they're a mind" to do their level best for themselves an' each other. Why, laws, you jest ortev seen them gals an' heard one of 'em holler: 'Man comin'.' You'd have thought they was shipwrecked on a desert island sure enough. 'Man comin',' yes; but I think it's time there was some women comin', an' thet's what 1 say." t F O R T U N E FOR FAIR P R I N C E * * - Primitive Customs. That ancient customs are still practiced by primitive tribes is shown by the two following incidents. In the Iliad it is written that, when Asklepias "saw the wound where the bitter arrow had lighted he sucked out. the blood," and so forth. In his recent work on the Australian aborigines John Mathew informs the reader that the doctor or sacred man made a practice of sucking the part affected. "There seems to be some efficacy in the sucking, for a friend of mine who was Buffering severely from an inveterate, inflamed eye allowed a black 'doctor' to mouth the eyeball, and the result of the treatment was immediate relief and speedy cure."

It gives me a lot of satisfaction to run that new hat out in that way in the middle of the season. "And this hat. remains * tolerably fresh when I put it away in the middle of September, and it is really in fair condition to wear when I bring it. out to start, the new season with it in the following spring. "Other men getting out hats which they had bought early in the previous season and so worn practically that, season through find their hats pretty shabby looking, while mine really looks pretty nice and will go all right till the midde of the season, when I buy a new hat on the first, mark down.

T w e n t y Million Dollars It Nest Egg She Inherited. Americans as well aa Europeans who know her express delight at the Rood fortune of Princess Henry of Pleas in Inheriting, with her husband, |20,000,000,^a comfortable addition to their modest fortune. The money is derived by the popular couple fr&m the estate of the duke of Pleas, whom nobody on this side of the water knew well, and who had few friends even in England. Princess Henry, on the other hund, gained the hearts of many as Daisy West. It was by that hame she was known to most of her acquaintances before her marriage, though in strict formality she was Miss Cornwallia-West. She was bethrothed to Prince Henry at the end of her first season in society. The duke of Pless lived a life of almost feudal formality at Furstenstein, their splendid Renaissance castle in the borders of Bavaria. It must have required, indeed, power of adaptability in an English girl to take up the position of a sort of queen among the peasantry there, driving about magnificently in a carriage drawn by Arab grays, ridden by postillions in claretcolored coats and white beaver hats. Still, Princess Henry has made the life at Furstenstein quite pleasantly Informal, and most of the time, is spent, when Bhe entertains English or German friends there, in riding or driving in the beautiful woods or vnlleys near. Prince and Princess Henry of Pless spend a good deal of the year in London, and they are oftener over in England for the Cowes week. Their little son was baptized in Loudon two years ago, it may be remembered. The queen stood sponsor, and the ceremony was a splendid affair. Breaking It to H i m .

"Well, now, I am anxious to know what that means. If It indicates that there's too much brain pressure at that particular spot, I want to knowit. Is it serious?" "Kadger, it is." "I feared so.

If, in the pursuit of yoyur .life'* vocation, you bad seen, five nurti; drop from your side at a dizzy height to a terrible: death below, would you continue hi that vocation? ^tt you did persist in it, would you have sufficient confidence in yourself to retain your "nerve" under all circumatauceH for thirty-five years? That has been a brief part of the many exciting experiences in the life of H. F. ("Riaky") Kvana, "Steeple Jack." "Riaky" Evans 1B a type of the daredevils that are growing Bcarcer each year. The inventions of modern times have eliminated much of the necessity for risk which waB run in necessary climbing of steeples and high buildings in the earlier days. He himself has been one of the foremost in making the business of those who must work at high altitudes as safe and easy as if they had solid ground beneath their feet. But still, every once in a while "Risky" finds it necessary to go to a great height to carry up a rope on which to swing a scaffold, or to attach block and pulley that his men, less versed in the art of climbing, may perform their duties with safety. There are plenty of men who work at great heights as nonchalantly as does the average person on the ground. Carpenters, masons and other builders must have* the same contempt for the dizziness that affects the average person who looks down from a great height. But even the work of such men as these pales before the accomplishments of the few left in the country of the caliber of "Risky" Evans. On a wager he once climbed at night, without ropes, ladders, or any other paraphernalia, the steeple of St. Joseph's church, in Cincinnati, stood erect on the topmost part of the cross surmounting the steeple, set fire to two newspopers he had carried with him in his pocket, and dropped them blazing on either side of the Bteeple, to prove to the man with whom he had made the wager that he was at the top of the steeple. The wager was for $60, and the time allotted him to accomplish the feat was half an hour. , He is the same man who, a few years ago, slid twice daily from the roof garden of the Masonic Temple at Chicago down a rope the entire twenty stories to the ground, attracting at each performance crowds that congested the streets, making them impassable. "Risky" Evans' first real experience at any great height from the earth was in the early 70s. He was a boy who loved all Borts of adventures. A balloonist of then national reputation came to the city which was "Risky's" home. He needed someone to go with the balloon, in which he was taking up several passengers, to go down the rope on which was fastened the anchor to make it fast when a landing was made. This was to "Risky's" liking. He took the job. When the "professor" wanted to land "Risky" was hoisted over the side of the car. Down the swinging rope he slid, legs gripped tight around it, hand over hand. "When I got to the end of the rope and sat down a-straddle of the anchor I .felt pretty good," Evans said in telling the story. "Then I began to watch "for a tree top to grab the anchor in. We went through pie or two, and I had my clothes torn into shreds and got all scratched, up. But I hung on, and finally got theanchoi around a limb, signaled to the "professor," and the landing was made." A M I 8 3 0 U R I W O M A N Tails a Story of Awful Suffering and Wonderful Relief. Mrs. J. D. Johnson, of 603 West Hickman St., Columbia, Mo., says: "Following an operation two years ago, dropsy set in, and my left side was so swollen the doctor said he would have to tap out the water. There was constant pain and a gurgling sensation around my heart, and I could not raise my arm above v»AF4vV m y bead. The kld- \VC<A* n e y a c tion was disordered and passages of the secretions too frequent. On the advice of my husband I began using Doan's Kidney Pills. Since using two boxes my trouble has not reappeared. This is wonderful, after suffering two years." Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. TEA FROM T H E FLOWERS. This Product Little Known in the United States. Tea, not from leaves, but from the flowers alone of the plant, is rarely encountered in commerce. The petals, stamens, etc., are sun dried, and the resulting tea is of a rich, deep brown hue of peculiarly delicate odor, and gives a pale amber colored infusion rather more astringent in taste than that from the average fair grade leaf. The taste for it is an acquired one, and even if this tea could be made commercially possible, it is doubtful if it would ever become popular. The American tea trade could advantageously take a suggestion from the brick tea of the far east. In our country, the tea dust, some of which is good quality, is not properly utilized. In Europe it is a regular article of trade, and it is advertised and sold as tea dust. In America it is sold to thousands of cheap restaurants, who make from it the mixture of tanic acid, sugar and boiled milk which they sell as "tea." If, as in the orient, this dust was compressed into bricks, good tea could be made from it. Bound to 8top Them. In a suit lately tried in a Maryland court, the plaintiff had testified that his financial position had always been a good one. The opposing counsel took him in hand for cross examination and undertook to break down his testimony upon this point. "Have you ever been bankrupt?" asked the counsel. "I have not." "Now be careful," admonished the lawyer, with raised finger. "Did you ever stop payment." "Yes." "Ah, I thought we should get at the truth," observed counsel, with an unpleasant, smile. "When did this suspension oc#aT?" "When I had paid all I owed," was the naiTeV reply of the pTalnttff—Success Magazine. Kismet. Kismet is an Arabic word meaning "fate," or "it is fated." A belief in predestination is one of the fundamental principles in the Mohammedan faith. Not only a man's fortune, but his deeds, and consequently his future reward or punishment are, according to this faith, irrevocably, and thus unavoidably, pre-ordained—a doctrine which has contributed largely to the success of Islam by inspiring its champions with the greatest contempt for the dangers of warfare. When a Mohammedan meets with any disaster or misfortune, no matter how great, he accepts the situation calmly, merely saying, "Kismet"—"it is fated." Shrewd Scheme. Traveler in Parlor Car—Porter, that man in front will give you a quarter for dusting him off, won't he? Porter—Yessir!" Traveler—Well, I'll give you half a dollar to leave the dust on him and not brush it off on to me. PUTS T H E "GINGER" I N . "He seems to be a good man, but he cheats in a horse trade.

A former college athlete, one of the long distance runners, began to lose his power of endurance. His experience with a change In food is interesting. "While I was in training on the track athletic team, my daily 'jogs' became a task, until after I was put on Grape-Nuts food for two meals a day. After using the Food for two weeks I felt like a new man. My digestion was perfect, nerves steady and I was full of energy. "I trained for the mile and the half mile runs (those events which require so much endurance) and then the long daily 'jogs,' which before had been such a task, were clipped off with ease. I won both events. "The Grape-Nuts food put me in perfect condition and gave me my 'ginger.' Not only was my physical condition made perfect, and* my weight increased, but my mind was made clear and vigorous so that I could get out my studies in about half the time formerly required. Now most all of the University men use Grape-Nuts for they have learned Its value, but I think my testimony will not be amiss and may perhaps help some one to learn how the best results can be obtained." There's a reason for the effect of Grape-Nuts food on the human body and brain. The certain elements in wheat and barley are selected with special reference to their power for rebuilding the brain and nerve centres. J The product is then carefully and scientifically prepared so as to make it easy of digestion. The physical and mental results are so apparent after two or three week's use as to produce a profound impression. Read "The Road to WellvtUe," in pica.

"Your honor," said a prosecuting attorney in an Alabama backwoods court, "the prisoner at the bar is charged with killing one of the most exemplary citizens of this county. Thomas Jones, your honor, was in every respect a model man. He was a member of the church; he was never known to bet on horses, play poker, drink whisky or use tobacco. He—" "Hold on a minute," said the judge. "You »ay he never bet on a horse?" "That's what I said, your honor." "Never was known to play a game?" "Never your honor." "And he never drank liquor?" "Never drank a drop, your honor." "And he didn't chew tobacco?" "Never took a chew in his life." "Well, then," said the judge, "I don't see what he wanted to live for. There wasn't anything in life for him, and I don't see why he ain't about as well off dead as alive. Release the prisoner, Mr. Sheriff, and call the next case." F I F T E E N YEARS OF ECZEMA. Terrible Itching Prevented Sleep Hands, Arms and Legs Affected —Cuticura Cured in 6 Days. "I had eczema nearly fifteen years. The affected parts were my hands, arms and legs. They were the worst in the winter time, and were always itchy, and I could not keep from scratching them. I had to keep both hands bandaged all the time, and at night I would have to scratch through the bandages as the itching was so severe, and at times I would have to tear everything off my hands to scratch the skin. I could not rest or sleep. I had several physicians treat me but they could not give me a permanent cure nor even could they stop the itching. After using the Cuticura Soap, one box of Cuticura Ointment and two bottles of Cuticura Resolvent for about six days the Itching had ceased, and now the sores have disappeared, and I never felt better in my life than I do now. Edward Worell, Band 30th U. S. Infantry, Fort Crook, Nebraska." K N E W V A L U E OF A N O A T H . Colored Witness at Least Was Aware of Its Pecuniary Worth. Clarence S. Darrow, the well known lawyer and essayist, discussing the Haywood trial, in which he played so prominent a part, said the other day: "Some of the evidence in that trial was so transparently false that it reminds me of a case that came off in Alabama a few years back. One of the witnesses in this case was an extremely ignorant man. As his testimony progressed, his Ignorance became so shockingly evident that the judge, looking sternly down at him said: " 'Look here, sir, are you acquainted with the value of an oath?" "The witness answered anxiously: " Medge, I hope I am. That thar lawyer on yer left hand gimme six dollars to sw'ar agin the other side. Thet's the correck value of an oath, ain't it, jedge?"* Wear Pajamas on Cars. "I learned something frOm the porter on our train this morning," said a hotel guest. "I noticed him pick up the coat to a pair of pajamas while he was making up one of the berths. Whoever had occupied the berth had got off the train, evidently, and left the garment behind. Forgot part of his nightie, eh?' says I to the porter. The porter grinned broadly. 'Wasn't any his about it, boss,' he says. 'It war a lady that was in that berth las' night. Yes, sah.

Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound Succeeds. One of the greatest triumphs of Lydia E. Pbakhain's Vegetable Compound is the conquering of woman's dread enemy Tumor, The growth of a tumor is so insidious that frequently its presence is wholly unsuspected until it is well advanced. So called "wandering pains'* may come from its early stages or the presence of danger may be made manifest by excessive monthly periods accompanied by unusual pain, from the abdomen through the groin and thigh. If you have mysterious pains, if there are indications of inflammation or displacements, secure a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound, made from native roots ahd herbs, right away and begin its use. The following letters should convince every suffering woman of its virtue, and that it actually does conquer tumors. Mrs. May Fry, of 836 W. Colfax Ave , South Bend, Ind., writes : Dear Mrs. Pinkham :— "I take great pleasure in writing to thank you for what Lydia E. Pinkham'B Vegetable Compound has done for me. I also took the Blood Purifier in alternate doses with the Compound. Your medicine removed a cyst tumor of four years' growth, which three of the best physicians declared I had. They had said that only an operation could help me. I am very thankful that I followed a friend's advice and took your medicine. It has made me a strong and well woman and I shall recommend it as long as I live." Mrs. E. F. Hayes, of 26 K u g g l e s S t , Boston, Mass., writes : Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— "I have been under different doctors' treatment for a long time without relief. They told me I had a fibroid tumor, my abdomen was swollen and I Buffered with great pain. I wrote to you for advice, you replied and I followed your directions carefully and today I am a well wonieft. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound expelled the tumor and strengthened my whole system." Mrs. Perry Byers, of Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, writes : Dear Mrs. Pinkham :— "I was told by my physician that I had a fibroid tumor and that I would have to be operated upon, I wrote t o you for advice, which I followed carefully and took Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound. I am not only cured of the tumor but other female troubles and can do all my own work after eigh years of suffering." Mrs. S. J. Barber, of Scott, N. Y. writes : Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— "Sometime ago I wrote yon for advice about a tumor which the doctors thought would have to be removed. Instead I took Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound and to-day am a well woman." Mrs. M. M. Funk, Vandergrift, Pa., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham :— "I had a tumor and Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound removed it for me after two doctors had given me up. I was sick four years before I began to take the Compound. I now recommend Lydia E. Pinkham's Veget« able Compound far and near." Such testimony as above is convincing evidence that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound stands without a peer as a remedy for Tumor Growths as well as other distressing ills of women, and such symptoms as Bearing-down Sensations, Displacements, Irregularities and Backache. etc. Women should remember that it is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound that is curing so many women Don't forget to insist upon it when some druggist asks you to accept something else which he calls "just as good." Mrs. PlnknasVs Invitation to Woacfl* Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited t o write Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., for advice. She is the Mrs. Pinkham who has been advising sick women free of charge for more than twenty years, and before that she assisted her mother-in-law, Lydia E. Pinkham in advising. Thus she is especially well qualified to guide sick women back to health. W. L.

PIN(JKJi*Y, - MICBUQAN ssr Explosion of the Earth. We frequently hear j.he theory ad vanced that the planets and aims ex plode aud that our own earth might poealbJy explode Xrum pent-up forcei within. A high exploitive exerts about the limit of pressure' capable of being exerted by gasea aet free and expand ed by the heat generated by any chemical reaction. Such a pressure, great tm It 1H, Its far too insignificant to explode the earth. Were the'whole great molten interior of our globe to be replaced by dynamite aud detonated, the exploBiqu would not lift the earth's crust. We have but to calcu late the weight of a column of gran lte of a height equal to the thickness of the earth's crust to see that the pressure of the crust on the molten Interior far exceeds the pressure exerted by exploding dynamite. We have seen that the speed of the detonative wave is about lour-miles per second. The speed of the earth in its orbit is lour times as great, declares Hudson Maxim, in the Independent. If, theretore, the Interplanetary space of our solar system were to be filled with an explosive mixture capable of being detonated and consumed with the speed of dynamite, and if this were to be set off just behind the earth In its orbit, the earth would not feel It, but WQuld rapidly rush away from the wave of explosion, pass clear around the sun, and come back again to meet it more than six months later. It would take nearly a year for such a detonative wave to reach our sun from the earth. If the earth itself were a ball of dynamite, It would require half an hour to explode; and if the sun were a mass of dynamite, It would require about two and a half days to explode.

Non-residents are of three classes: actual residents of foreign countries; persons who have been abroad with a fixed foreign abode for one year or more, who elect to declare as non-residents, and persons who have been abroad for two years, with or without a fixed place of foreign abode, who elect to declare as non-residents. Residents include all others. There ii no limit to the value of articles which non-residents may bring in free of duty, explains the Youth's Companion, provided they are articles actually accompanying the passenger, and necessary and appropriate for his or her use for the purposes of the journey and present comfort and convenience, and not intended for other persons or for sale. Residents may bring In all wearing apparel and other personal effectB which they took abroad with them, if not remodeled abroad to the value of $100, if the articles are not for sale. Under the new regulations passengers are not required to make oath to their declarations. The offer of a bribe or a "tip" to a customs officer will continue to be held aa A violation of the law. Fiendieh Work' Lying at the point of death, with chances favoring the latter, John E. Jones, a well to-do farmer, is In his home at Bear Lake, Pleasanton township, with a jagged gash in his throat. His little G-year-©ld crippled son, victim of a crazed father, lays dead in an adjoining room. Fiendish care was exercised In committing the fearful deed. Taking hU sou to a room in the second story of the farm house, Jones locked the door and there made the sacrifice. The child's throat was cut so that death must have been almost instantaneous. Jones was not so successful in his next attempt. He gashed his throat and then his haud failed him. He was found a few minutee later by a member of the family lying on the floor in a welter of blood.- Jones's daughter, running to the road to get a neighbor, saw Dr. Norconk, and hurried him to the death chamber. "He may yet live," was tf*e doctor's opinion after a hasty examination. Apparently Jones heard and understood for at that instant he made another savage slash at his throat with the razor, which he had kept concealed to that time. The second cut made his condition much worse. Jones's appearance lately has not indicated ill health, though his nervous condition has been such that he could do no work on the farm this season. Members of his family say that he acted a little strangely for a few days preceding the tragedy but they had no occasion to feel alarmed. He undoubtedly brooded over the condition of the child which was crippled and was also mentally deficient. Jones is about 48 years of age. He had many friends and was known as a genial, good natured man with more than the usual fondness for his children. Queer Antics These. When lightning tore a hole in the roof of the residence of William Money the bqJt caused damage in bath room and kitchen and went crashing into the shed at the rear of the latter. Here it attacked a large cupboard and tore it to pieces. In the cupboard were four baking powder cans with tops on and filled with herbs. The tops were removed, the contents taken out and the cans filled with clothespins from a basket which stood near the cupboard. The ring was melted off the dustpan In the kitchen and the paper In the cupboard and on the wall was torn as if by mice. While the family was frightened, no one was shocked except Mrs. Money, both of whose thumbs were affected. SB 3BK The cottage in East Hampton, Long- Island, wfcare John Howard Payne Jirad at a boy when His father waa principal of Ctoton academy in the village, will b " preserved for many years to come.

An admirer of "Home, Sweet Home" has bought the building—it is more than 200 years old—and will move it to another site and remodel its interior for use as a summer home. The outside will be unchanged, so that those may be gratified who wish to see the place which Payne had in Brffld when he wrote, "Re it ever humble, there's no place like home. A Scathing Rebuke. Wellington Taylor, of Fenton, who was arrested for neglecting to provide for his wife, who is dying of consumption at the home of her sister was rebuked in scathing terms by the court when arraigned before Justice Halsey. In adjourning the case for four weeks the court rounded out his denunciation of the accused by admonishing him to hasten to the bedside of his wife and make her as comfortable as possible in her last hours. "If you go over there and say one unkind word to your poor wife," the court added by way of a parting warning, "you will be sorry for it when you come before this court again." Taylor, who is able-bodied and capable of earning good wages, was profuse in his promisen to do what he could to make amends for his neglect of his wife in her helpless and pitiable condition, and the local authorities will see to it that he fulfills them to the letter.

"I have more trades outstanding, both buys and sella; than any other member or house. Before deciding whether1 to adjourn in an attempt to sav« 'the Street,' I ask your consideration of thiaf'propositlon: If the exchange will suspend operations for 30 minutes, and allow me to address the members on the floor, I will agree to buy stocks all around the room, until they have regained at least half their drop —all of it, if possible. I will buy until I have exhausted to the last hundred my fortune ot a billion dollars. This should make an adjournment unnecessary. I know that this Is a most extraordinary request, but you are confronted with a most extraordinary situation, the most remarkable in the history of the stock exchange. Already, if what they say on the floor is correct, over 200 banks and trust companies throughout the country have gone under, and new failures are being announced every minute. Half the members of this and the Boston and Philadelphia exchanges are insolvent and have closed their doors, or will close them before three o'clock, and the shrinkage in values so far reported runs over fifteen billions. Unless something is done before the close, there wijl be a similar panic In every exchange and bourse in Europe to-morrow." The committee instantly voted to lay the proposition before the full board. In another minute the president's gavel sounded, and the floor was still as a tomb. All eyes were fixed on the president. Every man in that great throng knew that upon the announcement they were about to hear, might depend, at least temporarily, the welfare, not only oj Wall street, but of the nation, pen hap* even of the civilized world. The preajdanl spoke: •'slenrtfcrs of the New York, Stock tfxcnadge: "The governing committee instructs me to say that Mr. Robert Brownley has asked that operations be suspend* ed for 30 minutes,'in ordef that lie be allowed to- address you. - Mr. Brownley has agreed, if this, request be granted, he will upon resumption of operations purchase a sufficient amount of stock to raise the average price of all active shares at least one' half their total drop—all of it, If possible. He agrees to buy to the limit of his fortune of a billion dollars. I now put Mr. Brownley's request to a vote. All those In favor of granting It will signify the same by saying 'Yes.' " A mighty roof-Hfting "Yes" sounded through the room. "All those opposed, 'No/ " There was a deathly hush. "Mr. Brownley will please speak from this platform, and remember, in 30 minutes to the second, I will sound the gavel for the resumption of business." Bob Brownley strode to the place ju9t vacated by the president. The crowd was growing larger every minute. The ticker was already hissing a tape blograph of this extraordinary situation in brokerage shops, hotels, and banks throughout the country, and in a few minutes the news of It would be in the capitals of Europe. Never before in history did man have such an audience—the whole civilised world. Already arose from Wall, Broad and New streets, which surround the exchange, the hoarse bellow of the gathering hordes. Before the ticker should announce the resumption of business these would number hundreds of thousands, for the financial district for more than an hour had been a surging mob. For once at least the much-abused phrase, "He looked the part," could be used in all truthfulness. As Robert Brownley threw back his head and shoulders and faced that crowd of men, some of whom he had hurt, many of whom he had beggare*. and all of whom he had tortured, he presented, a picture such as a royal lion recently from the Jungles and just freed from his cage might have made. Defiance, deference, contempt, and pity all blended in his mien, but over all was an I-am-the-one-you-are-themany atmosphere of confidence that turned my spinal column into a mercury tube. He^ began to speak: "Men of Wall street: "You have Just witnessed a recordbreaking slaughter. I have ', asked permission to talk to you for the purnose of showing you how any member of a great stock exchange may at any time do what I have done today. Weigh well what I am about to say to you. During the last quarter of a century there has grown up in this free and fair land of ours a system by which the few take from the maay the results of their labors. The men who take have no. more license, from flod or man, to tajte, than have those from whom they filch. They are not endowed by God with superior wisdom, nor have they per* formed tor their fellow-men any labor or given to them anything of value that entitles them to what they take. Their only license to plunder is their knowledge of the system of trickery and fraud that they themselves have created. No man can gainsay this, for on every side is the evidence. Men come into Wall street at sunrise without dollars; before ttfat same sun sets they depart with millions. So all-powerful has grown the system of by the manipulation of that labor and by Utrattog-.pebble* imto no&ey he took away from the Jaborer the money which' he had paid them for the labor until all In the land were slaves of the moneymaker. These few tricksters said: We will arbitrarily manufacture these chips—stocks. After we have manufactured them, we will sell the world what the world can pax for, and then by the use of the unlimited supply we still have we will Win away from the world what it has bought, and repeat the operation, until we have all the wealth, and the people are enslaved. To do this there was one thing besides the manufacturing of the chips—stocks—that was absolutely necessary—a gamblinghell, the working of whose machinery would place a selling value upon such chips; a hell where, after selling the chips, they could be won back. I saw that it these tricksters were to be routed and their 'System' was to be destroyed, it must be through the machinery of this stock exchange. I ^studied the machinery, and presently I marvelled that men could for so long have been asses. "From the very nature of stockgambling it Is necessary, absolutely necessary, that it be conducted under certain rules, unchangeable, unbreakable rules, to attempt to change or break which would destroy stockgambling. The foundation rule, the rule absolutely necessary for the existence of stock-gambling is: Any member of the stock exchange can buy, or sell, between the opening and closing of the exchange as many shares of stock as he cares to. With 'I Wi|l Buy Until I Have Exhausted My Fortuna of a Billion Dollars." oppression that single men take in a single lifetime all the savings of a million of their fellows. To-day the people, 80,000,000 strong, are slaving for the few, and their pay is their board and keep. I saw this robbery. I felt the robbers' scourge. I sought the secret. I found it here, here in this gambling-hell. I found that the stocks we bought and sold were mere gambling chips; that the man who had the biggest stack could beat his opponent off the board; that his opponent was the world, because all men directly or indirectly played the stock-gambling game. To win, it was but necessary to have unlimited chips. If chips were bought and sold, on equal terms, by all, no one could buy more than he could pay for, and the game, although still a gambling one, would be fair. A few master tricksters, dollar magicians, long ago seeing this condition, invented the system by which the people are ruthlessly plundered. The system they invented was simple, go simple that for a quarter of a century it has remained undiscovered by the world at large—and even by you, who profess to be experts. No man thought that a free people who had intended to allow all the equal use of every avenue for the attainment of wealth, and who Intended to provide for the safeguarding of wealth after it was secured, could be such dolts as to allow themselves to be robbed of all their accumulated wealth by a device as simple as that by which children play at bllndman'a-buff. The process was no more complex than that employed by the robber of old. who took the pebbles from the b**€h, masked them (money, and with <<&* money "bought the labor of bis. ttQnws, and ber at hli storey and there could be aoAtottk-gamhllng WheaJ hxLworkod this out, I saw that while the few tricksters of the *tifeat*tf bad a perfect device for taking irom the people their wealth. I had discovered as perfect a means of takjaf away from the few the wealth they had secured ironi the man/. With {his knowledge came a conviction that my way was as honest as the 'System's/ in IMCL, more honest than theirs. They, took from the Innocent, 1 took from the guilty what had already been dishonestly secured. I determined to put my discovery into practice. "1 might never have done so but for that Sugar panic in which I was robbed of millions by the 'System' through Barry COnant. In that panic the 'System,' with its unlimited resources, filched from the people by the arbitrary manufacture of stocks, and by their manipulation did to me what I afterward discovered I could do to them, without any resources other than my right to do business on the floor of this exchange. You saw the outcome, in the second Sugar panic, of my first experiment. In a few minutes I cleared a profit of |10,- OOOlbog. I could have zuade it fifty millions, or one hundred and fifty, but I was pot then on familiar terms with my new robber-robbing device, and I had yet a heart. To make this ten millions of money, all that was necessary for me to do was to sell more Sugar than Barry Conant could buy. (TO BE CONTINUE!*) 8 T Y L E 8 OF 4,000 Y E A R 8 AGO. Tend to Prove There Is Nothing New Under the Sun. For women archeology assumes a deeply Interesting phase In the question which has been raised by Signer Mo&so as to styles in dress as they existed 4,000 years ago. Slgnor Mosso, the eminent authority on ancient Etrurla, the Roman Forum, and early Crete, has concentrated his great experience and knowledge on elucidating this bypath of science from his Cretan studies. The general result has been to confirm the old dictum that there Is nothing new under the sun. Even the "latest fashions" are antiquated. Slgnor Mosso finds that 4,000 years ago the ladies of primeval Mycenae wore hats pretty much as they are seen in the showrooms of Paris to-day. They knew what crape trimming was, had tartans before the Scotch, understood the mysteries of corsets lacing in front, short wide sleeves, metal belts, and a style of dress which an imitative nineteenth century, that considered Itself original, dubbed "Empire." Their principal colors in robes were orange, yellow, blue and purple, which rather upsets the claim of the Phoenicians to have "discovered" purple. HAD BORROWED A PAST. this rule in force his buying and selling cannot be restricted to the amount he can take and pay for, or deliver and receive pay for, because there is not money enough in the world to pay for what under this same rule can be bought and sold in a single cession. This is because there have been arbitrarily created by these few tricksters many times more stocks than there \s money in existence. The amount of stock that any man can sell in one session of the exchange Is limited only by the amount that he can offer for sale, and he can offer any amount his tongue can utter; and he is not compelled and cannot be compelled to show his ability to deliver what he has offered for sale until after he has finished selling, which la the following day. You will ask as I did: Can this be possible? you will find the answer 1 found. It is so, and must continue to be so, or there will be no stock-gambling. Mark me, for this statement is weighted with the greatest Import to you all. A member of this exchange can sell as many shares of stock at one session as he cares to offer. If any attempt is made at the session he sells at to compel him either before or after he offers to sell to show his ability to deliver, away goes the stock-gambling structure, because from the very nature of the whole structure of stockgamblinR the same shares are sold and resold many times In each session and the seller cannot know, much less show, that he can deliver until he first adjusts with the buyer and the buyer cannot adjust until after he has become such by buying. If a rule were made compelling a seller to show his responsibility before selling, every member would have every otheT mem- Prttsburg Man's Unique Scheme for Pleasing His Bride. There is a man in Pittsburg who will be married In a short while, and will occupy the house a few rooms of which he has used during his bachelor days. He takes the greatest pleasure In showing his intimate friends about the place, And is especially delighted at the astonishment they express when his own "den" is reached. He has always been a quiet, studious fellow, but as refitted the room gives the appearance of the lounging place of a regular rounder. There are racks of long pipes; photographs of actresses are stuck about the chimney glass; a shelf of beer steins runs all the way around the room, and a few feminine gloves, handkerchiefs, and fans are scattered about. "Great Scott, Jack!" the last visitor gasped, "where did yon get this outfit, and why?" "Bought out a college fellow." was the complacent reply. "Just think how pleased that dear little girl will be when she sees all this truck and thinks how much wickedness she has won me away from!"—Harper's Weekly. IN TOILS FOR FAIR R E S U L T O F A P R O J W A L OYCB T H E ' P H O N E . A Plant Prophet. There has been found recently IB Cuba a strange plant which has extraordinary powers to forecasting not only atmospheric, but seismic disturbances. When these are to occur twigs and leaves perform peculiar movements, each having its definite significance. By observing them weather forecasts can be made from two to seven days ahead, and earthquake forecasts as much aa 26 days in advance over an area of 300 square miles. Volcanic eruption and accumulations of fire damp in mines ean also be predicted. Scientific Farming. A Scottish laird took his new plowman to task for the wavering furrows which were the result of his work. "Your drills are not nearly as straight as those Angus made," he said, severely. "He would not have left such a glebe as this." "Angus dldna ken his work," said Tammas, calmly, contemplating his employer with an indulgent gaze. "Ye see, when the drills is crookit the sun gets ta on a' sides, aa,' 'tis then ye get aarlf "tatiea." Why Bangs Is Not as Joyful as as Accepted* Man Should Be-^-Answor Not From His Adort^ ' One. Bangs' beautiful - blush lighted Up Mrs. Prunes" boarding house om every occasion that se&tlmeat sma .under discussion. You see, Bangs was m love, love was in Bangs; it penetrated his whole system; he saw and felt nothing elsa but love. Bangs hadn't fallen In love; he had risen, and now he was at the top notch; he was balancing on his toe on the top rung, and be found it quite hard to maintain his balance. Yet he was a cool-headed young man—except on the love proposition. Josephine wag her name, and it wav enough to hear Bangs pronounce it to know that he loved her passionately. Among other drawbacks which kept Bangs from declaring his love was that Josephine had a mother. An austere woman, she wasn't passioustw over Bangs, because Bams* was only a drygoods salesman. Her husband had been a plumber before Josephine's mother got hold of him and made him raise the price and keep it there. Several times she had snubbed him, and Bangs went as cheerfully to her house as one does to an icehouse in winter. One night Tangs worked himself up and was about to pitch into a ps> posal, when, suddenly, softly, with a swish of skirts, Josephine's mother entered the room and sat down between them. The hot words froze in his mouth, while Josephine's mother was gazing passively through her lorgnette and looking at him as she would have studied a water color in an art gallery. It was all off that night. Bangs knew it. Again he tried to slip in a word or two of love edgewise—but—no—Josephine's mother was there. He didn't know when he could see Josephine alone. Immersed in his murky thoughts, he sat behind his counter and tried to figure a way out. A light broke suddenly upon him. Rushing eagerly to the 'phone, he called Josephine's house. "O. I'm so glad it's you, Josephine. Don't interrupt me. I've something to say and I must say it quickly. I love you, Josephine, I love you. Will you marry me?:' He pressed the receiver to his eat and listened latently for her soft, coo ing "Y-y-y-es-s." Fuddenly he slammed the receive? down and looked about like a hunted animal. "Well, I'll be blamed," he gasped, as soon as he could. "I—I thought It was Josephine and, there. It was her mother. What shall I do?" All Bangs (Id was to blush and bite his finger nails. In fact, that wag about all there was left for him to dc now. Tims and Sex Have Changed. Men nowadays are ashamed—absolutely ashamed—of tendering to women any of the little delicate at tentions and courtesies tnat in the past endeared them to womanhood. A man now raises his hat to a woman not as a tribute to the sex, a sign of respect and observance, but more as the enforced fulfillment of an Irksosse duty. Where are the graceful curves and flourishes of the hat, the step back, the deep bow and courtly smile of the seventeenth, nay even the eighteenth century? Then it was a pleasure to meet a man in the street; one felt one's sway of sex. Who Is now inclined to acknowledge a hideous smirk and a grudging touch of a hat brim?—London Judy. Grateful Sparrow. A three-year-old boy killed a snak« which was in the act of robbing a song sparrow's nest. Ever since then, whenever he goes into the garden, the father sparrow flies to him, sometimes alighting on his head and at other times on his shoulder, all the time pouring out. a tumultuous song of praise and gratitude. It accompanies him about the garden and never leaves him until he reaches the gate. The gratitude which could change th« timid, wild nature of a bird in such manner must, have had Its origin in a feeling whose depths can be fathomed only In the psychical habitudes of the most refined of human beings.

I W;IH told at S:30 It was time for luncheon, writes an American tinsmith working In Leipzig. On, stating that I diil not care to eat, he told me that it would be better If I did no work, so 1 sat down for half an hour and watched the ethers. At noon we had an hour and a half and at 4 o'clock fifteen minutes for lunch. It may be oMnterest to some readers to know what the German eats. For his first breakfast he generally has a milk roll and a cup of coffee. The second breakfast Is almost always a slice of bread with lard or goose oil, a piece of sausage or cheese and a bottle of beer. For dinner he has two slices of bread as above, with a herring or large green pickle, cheese or sausage am! another bottle of beer. For lunch another bottle of beer and a milk roll. For Rupper soup and potatoes. This is the general variety of foods we had for the four months I worked In that fdicp. and they had it day in and day out- New York World.

Finding a Grave With an Egg. The Mlnu-tszc, a little known tribe in Asia, are very superstitious about death and will not bury a man until they have first tested the ground with nn egg. This operation is very curious. While the body is being prepared for burial a number of Mlau-tsze. including the male relatives of the deceased. go out to the api>oinled spot bearing a large basket of eggs. Stooping down. one of The natives lets an egg drop softly on the ground. If it breaks it i.s considered on ill omen, and another Rpot is selected. In lliis way the party often wnniie'- about for hours, breaking eggs over tli••; ground until they finally strike a p'ace where the shell does not crack. 0 I ' 2 3 4 s () , 8 y 10 1 ' f T ?. 13 14 I ^ K> I 7 . i n 1 1 i ' J! 1 2 3i 4 5 6 7 8, <>!

We weep at what thwarjs^or exceeds our desires in serious matters; we laugh at what only disappoints our expectations in trifles.

(Copyright, by Joaeph It. Bowle«.) A Point of View. The new • steamer City of was laid up for repairs and one of the rickety Dld-timers of the like was sailing in her place. A passenger who was somewhat irritated by the fact remarked to another, an Irishman, by the way: "The City of always gets in at two in the morning and this old tub never gets in before six." The Irishman thought for a moment and replied: "It's all right. The distance is just the same and we get a longer sail for the money."

She goes out into the pleasant, cosy kitchen; Charley has already built the Are Iff the range, and has gone on into the large shed room they call hi a "work-shop," where he is occupying his spare hours in 'constructing a set of furniture, from original patterns, for a spare bedroom Nellie is planning to arrange. "Well, he may feel fresh and lively and like working," thinks Nellie, balfsullenly, as she listens to the cheerful, mellow whistle with which he keeps time to the music of his tools. "He slept like a rock all night. I don't suppose he ever guesses how little Bleep or rest I got—or cares, either, maybe." Which last is clearly unjust; and Charley Burt is one of the best husbands in the whole world, as Nellie herself is often heard to say. She goeB mechanically about her morning duties, preparing the breakfast she knows Charley likes best, and patting up a dainty dinner, in his neat lunch-basket—for he does not come home till night—all the time hoping against hope that baby will not waken till she gets some ;of the most needful work don*. The very sunshine falls to cheer her with Its brightness. Breakfast over, he says cheerfully: "Nell, I wish you'd sew a button or two on my coat; I've missed sqme this day or so." His tone is the, furthest possible from a hint of fault-finding. She says: "Yes, Charley," very quietly; but lifts the offending gar- SMALL PILL. SMALL DOSE. SMALL PRICE.

K. Barton, OarhsavOa, 8«es them Bring in the Loves. Man 8he timet with a spiteful jerk; and goes into the bedroom to select from their box on her work-table some Buitable buttons and the wherewithal to apply them. But just as she turns away with full hands, those wicked buttons escape from her hold, and with the natural perversity that animates all things some days, they cease not their rolling till they have bestowed themselves far under the dressing-case, I quite beyond reach. A hasty excla roation springs to her lips, but is { bravely repressed, while the vexed frown deepens. Losing temper and patience together, she puts forth all h her strength and lifts the dressing- j case clear away from the wall, rolling it aside while she picks up the fugitive buttons. "8ay, Nell, hold on there," calls Charley, observing this exploit through the open door. "Why don't you let me help you? You ought not to do such things; you know you'll hurt, yourself." "Oh, well, it doesn't, matter," she returns, desperately, "I'm sure to be worked to death, somehow; it may as well be one thing as another." For a moment honest Charley looks at his young wife with eyes and mouth open; never has he heard such words from her before. In that moment it seems to dawn upon him for the first time how much sharper is the outline of the still pretty face, how pale the once pink cheeks, what dark lines under the blue eyes, how tired a look about the child-like mouth. He sits down suddenly, in the completeness of the shock. "Nell," he says, presently, "if you are working too hard, why don't you have a young girl to help, or put out something—the washing, for instance? It isn't absolutely necessarv that you should 4o everything; yon mustn't ovuajMlltt, if we don't make up- that last payment this year." "1 shall do all my own work—unless I'm sick—until we are quite out of debt and have laid something by," u the firm reply—she Is somewhat calmer now. "Didn't I agree to, when we laid our plans at first?" "But not unless you are able, Nell; I won't have you over-work; you are not looking very well, It seems to me." "Of course I am able," stubbornly, yet struggling to keep back the weak tears at these words of sympathy. Of course I am well; what should ail me? And as for what I do, you never see me doing much, do you?" with somewhat bitter emphasis. She gives him the coat, proceeds to clear away the breakfast thlugs, but Just then baby Carl's shrill notes ascend. "That baby!" she exclaims, with no very tender inflection; and dropping cups and saucers, she hastens to relieve his sufferings. Charley has his coat on by this time, and is about to start; he has a 15-mlnutes' ride to his work. He steps into the bedroom and stoops over little Carl. ' "' -Come, Nell, my girl." be calls, cheerily, "fetch us the good-by kiss." "Oh, I'm busy," replies Nell, tartly, from the depths of the closet where she is selecting baby s clotnes, "kiss Carl instead, that will do as weJL I don't doubt you think a good deal more of him than you do of me anyway/' with perversely bitter intonation. If she thinks he will hasten to her and coax her out of her pet, she is greatly mistaken; he is not used to any such moods in his bright little helpmate, 'so does not know how to take.thexrx THere te a. sudden silence, then she faces round just in time to see hitri give baby Carl one long^kiss, and he turns tfway mute and hurt, and is gone. She hesitates a moment, too proud to call to him even then, till at last her teat* »con<iue$ir and: she rims after hUja;, hut it is too^ate; he has "passed out: of the side-door, gone down the walk and is Just stepping on board the waiting horse-car. How heavily the day passes'after this, only a tender-hearted wbman mastered by the same failing can know. Never before.has, she spoken such words to the husband she loves so dearly; never before since their wedding-day. haye they parted ifor even a few hours without a kiss and a loving word. Theirs has been a very happy marriage, too, having in it all the elfc raents of prosperity and content*. Charley Burt' Ut a\ij*>ii8e-carpenter by trade, a first-rate mechanic, sober, ln--j dustrious, earning good wages and constantly advancing at his work. They b*ve a cosy little home, a pretty cottage in the suburbs. To-day she goes about the pretty rooms tidying everything as usual, and for the first time takes no pride or pleasure in them. • She gets through her routine-work somehow, doing all she thinks of or finds time for, because to leave anything undone would only add to the suffering of a mind ill at ease; but there is a heavy weight of misery at her heart. Will night ever come—and bring her Charley home? At last everything is done; she has prepared! a most inviting supper for her "good man," saying to herself: "I'll take baby Carl and run down to the gate and meet him when he comes—then we'll kiss and make up." Still he does not come, and It, is quite past his usual hour. She sits patiently holding her boy, her face growing all the time more white and drawn and anxious. "Oh, how I wish I had said goad-by just as ever to-day J" she whispers for the twentieth time; then as the slow minutes creep along, "I am afraid^— oh, so afraid something has happened," for though he is sometimes a little late, it is very s^dom that his j time of coming varies a half-hour— and now It Is two honjfji, and her vague presentiments of evil are growing to a dreadful certainty. She gets' up and walks the floor, tired out as she is; another hour passes, and in the extremity of her distress and terror she hi about to run across to her- nearest neighbor, wheajjs muffle^ tramping approaches and atop*—"the feet of them that bear him are at his gates." It seems to Nellie Burt that she dies a dozen deaths in that moment, while she stands rooted to the spot and sees them bring in the man she loves, senseless, bleeding, broken; then she rouses herself, and it is her ready hand that arranges the bed and smooths the pillow under the poor tmeofa«)*o%sB head. , Nat*, •lajid^nQ—ihat would have been a punishment greater than pool Nellie deserves, and more tEaif ehie could hear; but there has been atn accident—a scaffolding has fallen, and among the half-doseu men killed or injured Charley Burt has fared beat of any—only a broken arm, a dislocated shoulder, and some cuts and bruises.; He has been well cared for, too, and only conveyed to his home when the attending surgeon has decided that there are no internal injuries, and that he can safely be moved. But the dread "might have been" stands .out before her then so clear and plain that It leaves Its Impress on her very soul; and In ail the rest of her life it helps to teach her the great lesson of patience and aeifcontrol. So matters might have been xnuoh worse, after all; as it is, Nellfe Burt's bad day ends with a perfect reconciliation between husband and wife, and a most grateful thanksgiving to God from one tender heart that she has been spared that sharpest pang of all—the utter misery of knowing that for this world her penitence has come too late.

J.—Certainly heroism is measured by the sacrifice the hero willingly makes. So what greater hero than a tramp who dropped a Bandwich he was eating and took a bath to save two boys from drowning. John Phelps, a farmer near here, the boyB' grateful father, offered the tramp a good home and good wages ns a farm hand.' "Anything," said the tramp, shuddering, "anything but work." William Phelps, 13 years, and Charles, 11, went swimming in a basin of the Morris canal near their home. Charles dived,'struck hiB head on a sunken canal boat, and floated, nearly senseless. William jumped to his rescue. Charles seized the brother arid, struggle as he might, William could not free himself. The brothers were sinking the second time .when around a bend of the road jumped the hero hobo. He was devouring a sandwich a farmer's wife had just given him, and wondering, probably, where his next meal was coming from. "Dusty Roads" saw the brothers writhing and choking in the water. The sandwich fell in the dust, and, without as much as throwing off his ragged coat, the tramp ran to the canal, jumped in, arid dragged, the boys ashore. Mr. Phefps gave "Weary Willie" ten dollars, a suit of clothes, a hat, and a pair of'shoes. "Where are you going?"'"asked Mrs. Phelps, pityingly, as the tramp toik, up his Journey. "Nowhere," said he, dreamily. What will appear very IntewwUhS to many people here Is the taken from a New York dally giving a simple prescription, a*v lated by a noted authority, who> that he has found a positive remedy to cure almost any case of backache or kidney or bladder derangement, In the following simple prescription! if taken before the stage of Bright's disease: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Shake Well in a bottle and take in teaspoonful doses after each meal and again at bedtime. A well-known authority, when asked regarding this prescription, stated that the ingredients are all harmless, and can be obtained at a small cost from any good prescription pharmacy, or the mixture would be put up if asked to do so. He further stated that while this prescription is often prescribed in rheumatic afflictions with splendid results, he could see no reason ' why it would not be a splendid remedy for kidney and urinary troubles and backache, as It has a peculiar action upon the kidney structure, cleansing these most important organs and helping them to sift and filter from the blood the foul acids and waste matter which cause sickness and suffering. Those who suffer can make no mistake in giving it a trial. NO N E E D FOR WORDS. " * • • • • Brief Pantomime Teld Everything to the Onlooker. Nickname* of American ,Clt|e*.

The Moat Rev. J. J. Hsrty was a p p o i n t e d archbishop of Manila three years ago, and during h i s Incumbency S I R T " t e r e d 300,000 confirmations in his diocese. ThlB large number, it Is explained in The Catholic Mirror, 4to perhaps due to the fact that confirmations had not been administered in the country districts for many years prior to his arrival. By means of the ecclesiastical census instituted by the old Spanish missionaries it is ascertained that there are now 7,000,000 Christians in the archipelago. Some other facts concerning the Catholic church in the Philippines are given in The Mirror as follows: "The idea that the church in the Philippines is rich 1B pure fiction. The church had been rich in lands, and theBe lands were productive and gave results, but for ten years no revenue has bee'n received from any of them, and the result is poverty on the part of the church, r Under the old regime the Spanish government paid for the Bupport of the clergy. This, of course, has been withdrawn, and the clergy are dependent on the voluntary contributions of the people. The people had not been accustomed to support the clergy directly; they supported them indirectly through the taxation system. The direct contributions are now a hardship to them, the support which they give to the church 1B very meager, and the priests are in extreme poverty. "There are 400 priests in the dioceie of Maalla; 120 priests in the diocese of Jaro; 110 in the diocese of Vlfan; 250 in the diocese of Cebu, and 160 in the diocese of Nueva Caceres. In the United States we have 14,000- 000 Catholics, with 14 archbishops, 90 bishops and 15,000 priests. In the Philippine islands we have 7,000,000 Catholics, Just 50 per cent, of those in America, and we have 1 archbishop, 5 bishops and 1,040 priests. The striking contrast in these figures shows without comment how much remains to be done." . ^ 6 PROLIFIC GARDEN ENGLISHMAN'S FIRST AND SUC» CE88FUL ATTEMPTS IN MANITQ& A—80IL P80DUCES 9TRIKINQ RESULTS, The Winnipeg (Canada) Free Press of a few days since contains account of the success that followed the efforts of William Knowles, an Englishman who located near Winnipeg, Manitoba. This is but one of many letters frivinf experiences of setUersr aad should be encouraging; to those who are looking about for a new hox&e in which they, may better their condltioas. The following is a copy of the article referred to: William Knowles. who cultivates some twelve acres of land just below Mlddlechurcfa ferry on east aide of the Red River has probably as tips a display of horticultural products as any in Manitoba. The whole of bis holding is in a high state of cultivation and literally crowded with splendid vegetable specimens, which have fortunately escaped damage by hail, although heavy storms have mere than once occurred within a few miles. The potatoes are a wonderful crop, and he expects to raise 1,500 bushels from his patch of 4½ acres. A half donen of tubers selected yesterday average more than a pound each. Adjoining the potatoes may be seen a marvelous collection of tomatoes. There are 600 plants, all growing; under an enormous weight of fruit. One single stock picked yesterday contained eighteen tomatoes and weighed four pounds. This extraordinary example of marvelous growth, together with some of the potatoes were sent to, the Free Press office. . The proprietor was, the first in town with several spepimens, including green corn. The season has been favorable i for onions, and one square patch of nearly an acre is looking remarkably healthy. In addition there are good crops of cabbages, cauliflower, turnips, parsnips, carrots, pump kins, marrows, cucumbers, celery, peas, lettuce, rhubarb, etc. , The^ floral department has not been neglected and a charming display of all the well known blooms were shown, including a specially choice lot of asters. Mr. Knowles, who gained most of his gardening experience in England, is loud in his praise of Manitoba soil for vegetable raisins, and is gratified with the result of his first attempt at extensive horticulture.

The general plans for the establishment of a great Preabyterian rallying ,_place at Montreat, in North Carolina, have been published In the church papers. It is proposed to make Montreat far more than a mere summer resort. It is to be a rallying place for < Presbyterians of the south. Charles Carroll Brooks, the founder of "The Very Small Library," is planting libraries in various mountain com munities. He is a mountain boy and was brought up in the Blue Ridge, near Harper's Ferry, W. Va. Education is going on apace in Uganda, in Central Africa, and there is no separation between it and religious teaching. A C. M. 8. missionary writes: "The boys and girls* are being brought up in the fear and nurture of tho Lord, because they first learn that the beginning of wisdom is to know God and Jestis Christ whom he has Rent." "What makes you women so different from us?" a Mohammedan woman iu Persia asked of Misa McLean, of the Presbyterian mission. "Is It what you eat? Won't you make me a dress just like yours, so that I may look like you?" Miss McLean made her the dress, and she confesses that the woman was not a pretty picture when arrayed in it. "I haven't, got the look yet," she said, as she came back, disappointed. "There is something in your eyes that isn't In ours." What made the difference was the light of Christ shining within. Robert E. Lewis, general secretary nf the Y. M. C. A. in central China, writes t^hat the evangelistic meetings in Korea, during the recent visit of John R. Mott, were of remarkable power. A three days' campaign was held at Seoul.

It is quite true that these troubles mar reach a stage where an operation is the only resource, but a great many women have been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound after an operation has been decided upon as the only cure. The strongest and most grateful statements possible to make come from women who by taking* Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound made from native roots and herbs, have escaped serious operations, as evidenced by Miss Rose Moore's case, of *07 W. 26th St., N. Y. She writes:- Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-" Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has cured me of the very worst form of female trouble and I wish t o express to you my deepest gratitude. I suffered,in tensely for two years so that I was unable to attend to my duties atfd was a burden to nay family. I doctored and doctored wlih only temporary relief and constantly objecting to an operation which I was advised to undergo, I decided to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; it cured me of the terrible trouble and I am now In better health than I have been for many years." This and other such cases should encourage every woman to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Componnd1>eforeahe submits to an operation.

The question was as to the ownership of several head of cattle which the defendant wa.s accused of having .stolen from the plaiutlff. As the case proceeded and different witnesses gave their evidence, it became apparent to all listeners that the defendant was an Innocent man. When It came time for the jury to retire to consider their verdict, they did so, bifc returned to the courtroom in a few moments. The foreman looked the judge straight In the eye and said with a drawl and twang1 which betrayed his New England origin: "Jedge, we find the plaiutlff guilty." "The court is not trying the plaintiff, but the defendant," said hla honor hastily, and the watter being explained, the foreman was at length Induced to express the Jury's opinion that the defendant was not fruilty.

A Clash of Prayers. Maggie, with her fair face and blond hair, and Xina, with dusky skin and kinky wool, had played together at mud pies and had swung on the same gate ever since they could remember, for Nina's mammy was Maggie's nurse, says the Housekeeper. They were now seven years old. Maggie loved Nina In spite of her color, yet she had a feeling that her friend deserved to be white, so she added to her prayer each night: "Please, God, make Xina white." As the weeks went by and Nina remained unchanged Mag^'o felt that her petition needed re-onforeement, BO she confided In Nina, -begging her to pray for the gTentJy desired bleaching. Rut Nina in surprise looked at Maggie with ttide open eyes and exclaimed: "Me? No, slr-ee. Po' do Lawd.

Those who make their own butter ate in luck this season a« it is not only hard to get but the price is soaring. Merchants are paying 24 cents per pound for good butter and some private families are paying more when they can get it and then have to speak several days ahead to get it at that. The time is ripe for some farmer to go into the business of making GOOD butter and plenty of it for the home market. A community is judged by its newspaper. If one picks up a country newspaper that is neatly printed and well filled with advs., the first impression is that the paper must be printed in a thriving and wideawake town. It it is all smeared up with ink, has no advs. and has a general.y run down appearance, the town is sized up as about the same kind of a proposition.—Ex. The DISPATCH IS cleanly printed and certainly tbe town is clean and well kept. How about the rest of the above item?

Tb*y speak of everything In order t^M every one may have something to Bay; they do not investigate too closely, for fear of wearying; questions axe treat ed with rapidity; precision leads to elegance, each one giving his opinion, and supporting it with few words, says the New York Weekly, No refined person attacks wantonly another's opinions, no tactful person defeads his own obBtinacy. They discuss in order to enlighten themselves, and leave off discussing where dispute would begin; every one gains Information; every one recreates himself, and all go away contented; nay, the sage himself may carry away from what he has heard matter worthy of silent meditation. The coyote Is a much despised animal of the wild and woolly west, an<4 even Mark Twain's vivid description of its powers of speed is not sufficient to establish it in popular respect. But it seems Colorado farmers have come to the opinion that the coyote has qualities heretofore unsuspected and which if they do not add to his reputation for morality indicate a higher grade of intelligence than he has bee* credited with possessing. Colorado Is renowned in various ways; among other things for raising the finest melons. Now it appears the coyotes have not only developed a taste for the melons, but the sagacity to pick out the ripest, best and sweetest As a consequence, says the Troy Times, the melon farms are frequently raided by the beasts and the farmers are heavy losers. Ordinarily a coyote is held in such contempt that little or no attention is paid to him. But when ke becomes a destroyer of Colorado's choicest melons he is daring fate too much. It is now likely to be war to the death, and the coyote crop will be killed off in order to save the crop of melons. Figures collected by the Internatloni\ Society of State and Municipal Building Commissioners and Inspectors show that every week, on an average, fires in the United States burn up three theaters, three public halls, 1C churches, ten schools, two hospital;, two asylums, two "colleges," six apartment houses, three department stores, two jails, 26 hotels—the fires at seashore resorts this summer will raiBe the hotel average—140 "fiat" houses and 1,600 single dwellings. Such a record of waste is bad, but it is not surprising in a land of wooden buildings. Moreover, many of the buildings destroyed would have been torn down if they had not been burned. A countryman who suffered from a slight fire said he had lost two houses and three barns If you counted the dog house, the. chicken house and the cowshed. In such lists as the foregoing a house is a house be it ever so worthless, and a ""college" may call itself so even if it occupies but three rooms and does most of its business b y m a i l . •*>:.

OID T H * M O T H W a L O V I F O R C I A PALM CONFESSION TO 8AVK HER SONT HUSBAND'S ABUSE SHOWN The Atlanta Tragedy Has *otne Startling F«atur««, Though the Confession la Retracted. Cruelty Cause* Murder. Mrs. Jessie Freemont Chad wick, of Atlanta, Mich., has confessed that she trailed her husband, Charles E. Chadwick, from the house and shot him dead with his own gun. The county officers had arrested young Chadwlck, suspecting him of the crime, because marks of his shoes were found in the vicinity, but Mrs. Chadwick declares she took his shoes from the stairs and wore them as she followed her husband. Mrs. Chadwick's confession was written In a letter to the Imprisoned son, who she declared was suffering to shield her. After writing the letter she attempted her own life, was prevented by her daughter, and when arrested and thrown into Jail denied her confession. Though the confession and the denial confuse the authorities, Mrs. Chadwlck has unquestionably shown truly in her letter the brutish conduct on the part of her husband, his cruelty and drunkenness, which was doubtless the cause of his destruction. These are some of the things Mrs. Chadwick, the drunkard's wife, says: You know, darling, I cannot bear you to suffer in my place all for love of me. 0 dear heart, I never would have done It if he hadn't been so mean and I know I was not accountable for what I did. The only wicked, cruel thing I ever did, me, the woman who could not even kill a chicken. He had killed me a thousand times. He flew in a rage and said he was ruined * * * and he talked so to me and I never answered only when I had to, but I grew so afraid, so afraid; then the wildness came in my head and when he got through every nerve was strung up. 1 went over the hills in a pair of shoes—the little feet that I am so proud of made me able to put my shoes in them, but, O God, I thought they were his and they were yours. My darling, O, my darling. God knows how lonely my heart was and the cruel, cruel life I led. And, darling, when I thin* of how many times I have put my body between him and you and have taken the blows intended for you on my head and kicks on my body, do not wonder that I am a nervous wreck, and brooding alone has finished his work. Had Another Wife. Sheriff Murphy claims to have learned that Chadwlck had another wife living beside the woman now held in prison, and that he waB not divorced from his first wife. If this is proven, it will likely turn the sentiment in the county to Mrs. Chadwick. During the past few days it has taken a trend decidely against her. Mrs. Chadwick showed to the authorities a letter purporting to have been from the first wife. She was In Michigan at the time and is still believed to be in the state. An attempt will be made to locate her before the estate is disposed of. A New Primary Law. The administrationiats who drew the new primary election bill for presentation at the, special session did not consult the attorney g e n e t ' s department That department has a draft of a bill which may or may not be offered to the law makers. The feature xtf the new administration bill which is attracting the most attention is the section relative to the election of delegates to national conventions. The bill provides for their election at a spring primary, doing away- entirely with conventions. It also provides for the nomination of United States senators and requires all political parties to make nominations under the provisions in case any one political party adopts it. The administration men claim* their bill provides a workable, comprehensive primary election system. It does not include any 40 per cent clause. A copy of .the bill will be introduced the first day of the session. Some of the state's lawyers are saying that it is full of legal blowholes. False Reports. Prompt notice has been taken by the office of the Isthmian canal commission of the charges made by the Spanish government that intended emigrants from that country for Panama are being deceived as to conditions there by American recruiting labor agents.

Stop the Waste. After an extensive Investigation of the; country's- natural resources, conducted in the west, at the instance ol the government, Prof. J. A.

Prof. Holmes says that, thft-waste Of coal is appalling. Every possible means should be ad.opted, h,e says, for reducing the waste to an absolute minimam; In order that our fuel resources may suffice for the'future as well as for the present needs of the nation. "At the present rat^'of increase in consumption^ sayg-^Mr. Holmes, "the better, part of the fuel supply of the country will be gone by the end of the present century, unless the proper steps are taken." Prof. Holmes gays that the teohnologic branch of the geological survey indicates the possibility of increasing tho fuel efficiencies by two or three fold, and suggests still greater possibilities. •' "The future is full of promise," he says, "but the solution of these problems calls for further extended investigation." won by the eturdy "Tigea" at St. Loujj on S*teRdWr,When the .-world's clas>r i pionship series opens in Detroit, tpfcftbanner crowd of the ^ears willJbroS# * th« streets and the flunoat "WheeA »h" will go up from thousands of throater Thr standing at the close of the game won by the "Tiges" Saturday, which gave them a cinch on the pennant, follows: Won Detroit , , »2 athletics 88 Chicago '....'.. 86 Cleveland •••-• 85 New York 70 St. L o u i s . . . . . . 67 BoBton 59 Washington ... 49 Lost. 5* 57 64 66 78 83 90 .102 Per cent. .622 .607 .573 .563 .473 .447 .?9& .32S President's Bear Hunt President Roosevelt, dad in khaki, hunting boots and sombrero, Is camped on the Parker plantation, .about five miles from Stimbout, La.

My invention If a kure destroyer of the greatest ££ra# In the world,\stock-gambling.,'* A sullen growl rose from the ganv hlerav Robert Brownley glared down his deftance. ,.* "Let me show you the Impossibility of preventing in the future-anyone's doing what I have done to you so many limes during the past five years. All the capital required to work my invention is nerve and desperation, or starve without desperation. It If well known- to you that there- are at all tunes' exchange •« members who. will commit any clime,>barring, perhaps, murder, to gain millions. Your members have from time U time shown nerve or desperation enough to embeszle, raise certificates, give bogus checks, counterfeit stocks and bonds, and this for gain of less than millions, and when detection was probable. All these are criminal offenses and their detection is sure to bring disgrace and atate prison. Yet members of this exchange "desperate enough to take the chance, when confronted with loss of fortune and open bankruptcy, have always been-found with nerve enough to attempt the crimes. I repeat that there are at all times exchange memhere who will commit any crime, barring, perhaps, murder, to gain millieus. That you may see that my successors will surely come from your midst from time to time during the future existence of the exchange, I will enumerate the different classes of members who will follow In my footsteps: "First, the 'In God We Trust' Robert Brownley Glared Down Defiantly as a Sullen Growl Arose from the Gamblers, gamblers with a contempt that was superb. He went on: "Men of Wall street, it Is writ la the books of the ancients that every evil contains within itself a cure or a destroyer. I do not pretend that what I am revealing to you is to you a cure tor this hideous evil, but I do say that what I am giving you is~- a destroyer for it, and that while it will be to the world a cure, it may leave you in a more fiery hell than the one of which you now feel the flames. I do not care if it does. When I am through, any member of the New York stock exchange who feels the iron in his son) can get instant revenge and unlimited wealth. You who are turning over in your minds the consideration that your great body can make new rules ta render my discovery inoperative, are dealing with a shadow. There is no rile or device that can prevent its working. There are 1,000 seats in the New York stock exchange. They are worth to-day $16,000 apiece or $96,- 600,000 a v a l . Their value Is due to the fact that t i l t exchange deals in between east nasi three million shares ft day. ware any attempt made to the operation of my Invention, tion* would because of such to five or ten thousand y, or to such transactions stock that will be sctuand actually paid for.

U the $tM*M0i BaOMosmV^ssV schemer who is of the 'System' type, but who Is outside the magic circle, A man of this class will reason: I know scores of men, who stand high on the Street' and in the social world, who have tens of millions that they have filched by 'System* tricks, if not by legal crimes. If I perform this trick of Brownley's, the trick of selling short'until a panic is produced, I shall make millions and none will be the wiser. For all I know, many of the multl-millionaires whom I have seen produce panics and who were applauded by 'the Street' and the press for their ability and daring, and whose standing, business and social, is now the highest, were only doing this same thing, and having been successful, they have never been detected or suspected. Hut even suppose I fall, which can only be through some extraordinary accident happening while I am engaged in selling, I shall have committed no crime, and, in fact, shall have done no one any great moral wrong, for if I fail to carry out my contract to deliver the stock I have sold in trying to produce a pans* the men to whom I have sold will be ao worse off for not receiving what they bought; in fact, they will stand just where they stood before I attempted to bring on a panic. "Second, If an exchange member for any reason should find himself over board and should realise that he must publicly became bankrupt and lose all, ha surely wouM ha a fool not to attempt to produce a panic, when its production would enable him to reaoup his losses and prevent his fariure, and whan If by acetdent ha should fail In his attempt . * sswduoe a panic tha ' wtttf^sshsty be hit w a S s i M I a*** tftksm The- third chum is that large one that always >tlU exist while then* If stook-grunbliff.y^ Class of honest, square-dealluaypJSMhyi - ganiw-Xalr exchange man whogwould take no unfair advantafp#of'theft- felloW-members until they: heeons awakened to the knowledge that they are about to be ruined by their fellow-members' trickery. "Next, let us consider further whether it Is possible for our exchange to prevent my device from being worked, now that It is known to all. Suppose the governing committee was informed in advance that the attempt to work the trick was to be made. If, at any session, after gong-strike, the governing committee, or any exchange authority, could for any reason compel a member to cease operating, even for the purpose of showing that his transactions were legitimate, the entire structure of stock-gambling would fall. Think it through: Suppose a man like Barry Conant or myself, or any active commission broker, begins the execution of a large order for a client, one, say, who has advance information of a receivership, a fire at a mine, the death of a president, a declaration of war, or any of the hundred and one items of information that must be acted upon Instantly, where a delay of a minute would ruin the broker, or his house, or its clients. If the governing committee could thus call the broker to account, the professional bear or the schemer, who desired to prevent him from selling, would have but to pass the word to the president of the exchange that the broker in question was about to work Brownley's discovcry and he could be taken from the crowd and before he returned his place could be taken by others and ho could be ruined.

The traveler selects his own house when he enters a settlement, walks in and sits down by the stove.

Q U A L I T I E S OF THfc OYSTER. #\ AND NONE FOUWD, PERFfcGT SYST E M OF S H O R T H A N D . One Particularly Good Point Which Bore Might Emulate. A San Franciscan has discovered a new method of cutting short recitals that promise to become too long-winded. An acquaintance of his, who has a local reputation as a bore, was one day holding forth at some length when the Callfornlan interrupted him with: "By the way, did I ever tell you the story of the oyBter?" Oh receiving a negative reply, he continued: "It seems that whea oysters are taken from the sea they often open their shells so that the juice or liquid runs out. As this Is undesirable, the experienced oyster gatherer has a tuh; of water close at hand into which the' oyster is plunged ss soon as It begins to open its shell." "Well, and what then?" asked the other as the narrator paused. The San Franciscan smiled "Oh, after a while the oyster learns to keep its month shut," he remarked duietly. Desire Was As Ardent in the Days of the Romans as In Our Own Time —Fortune Awaits t h e Discoverer. Sir Edward Clarke, In Joining Use ranks of the inventors ol systems *f shorthand, has yielded U) 4 -temptation common to great men of all ages. The learned Egyptian, who.flxat gat tired of writing out a"complete hieroglyphic, and took to suggesting part of H only, was on the way not only to ao alphabet, but toward the goal reached by Sir Edward himself. Since that dim period we have all been doing our beet to find a royal road to expression, and have achieved the gramophone. Eve*.Herbert Spencer, whose father Invented,a "Lucid Shorthand," was bitten with Jhe deaire to conquer time, and he tells us that an examination of his father's system left him In no doubt whatever that it was the best of all. The fatality of all systems, however, is that what seems easy to the eye of filial piety may be terribly difficult to the cold gaze of the stranger. Of the innumerable systems of shorthand that were In vogue a century ago how many aurvive today? In spite of Pitman, fame and fortune still await the man or woman who can invent a system that will appeal to the reader as effectively as to the original writer. Pethaps if we were to rediscover the lost shorthand writing of the ancient Romans we might feel ourselves on the road toward a solution of the problem. • For the Romans were on affectionate terms with shorthand. Did not Suetonius, speaking of Caligula, express surprise that an emperor of so many promising parts should, nevertheless, be an ignoramus in shorthand; and did not Titus Vespasianus pride himself on his facility in the use of stenography both for business and amusement? So fond was he of the sport that he delighted to gather his amanuenses around him in ordei* that they should tilt against each other in the stenographic field. It may be that but for the rediscovery of the art in our own country toward the end of the sixteenth century (the curious Pepys would not have been moved to write his Diary, says the London Chronicle. The first impulse to the rediscovery and cultivation of shorthand in modern times may probably be traced to the desire, at the time of the Reformation, of preserving the discourses of the preachers of the new doctrines. "To write as fast as a man speaketh treatably," the Elizabethan writing master and stenographer, Peter Bales, declared to be "in effect very easy • * * the shortness whereof is attained by memory, and swiftness by practice, and sweetness by industry." But the early systems were very inefficient, and this ha,$ been considered by <?ri£ ics to be one of the causes of the corrupt readings of the text of some of Shakespeare's plays. Contemporary opinion on the subject may be gathered from the "Pleasant Dialogues and Drammas" of Thomas Heywood (1637), who says that his play of "Queen Elisabeth" "Did throne the seats, the boxes and the atag-e So much ao that some by stenography drew A plot, put it in print, scarce one word true." Sleep and Old Age. There is-no question that the quantity of sleep required steadily diminishes from Infancy to old age. This is a rather interesting exception to the general rule that, as in so many matters, old age returns to the needs of infancy. As regards sleep, old age is more remote in its needs from infancy than in any other period ot life. If elderly people obtain good sleep during the .first few hours, and if they have not lest"that delight ta reading which we all had in youth, but which so*" many of us curiously lese, their case Is not to be grieved over. The special value of she earliest hours of sleep, by the way, has been proved by psychological es^sstsnent. The popular phsase 'imam (steep" is well warranted.

An instrument has recently been invented for recording the depth of water, and which makes a pen record something on the principle ot the machine which records the rough places in a railroad track. A slab of metal attached to a rope is dragged over the bottom by a boat moving slowly. The other end of the rope extends over pulleys to the charting room, where a pen records the upe and downs, or peaks and valleys of the bottom, making a topographical map. Experts know how to translate these tracings into feet o*r fathoms. The results are much more ascurate and vastly quicker than the old method of sounding with a hand line. The Whole Thing.

To be sure, it was addressed to herself, but Beatrice attended to the affairs of the entire household. Beatrice was 23, ta\\ and, erect, she resembled her mother., only her eyes and hair were darker, and Bhe had the air of one born to command. Bernlce, three years Beatrice'*, Junior, was the beauty of the family. She was smajl and dark, with sparkling face, and long-lashed, Spanish eyes. Gladys was 18, and looked like her mother. She was musical and ambitious, their limited means alone preventing the thorough cultivation of her gift. The letter was from Mrs. Dailey's sister and only near relative, Mrs. Katherine Dillon, who had been for years abroad with an invalid husband. Mr. Dillon had died several months before, and the return of the sister and aunt had been eagerly looked forward to by the Dalleys. "Why don't you read it- aloud?" Bernice asked petulantly, as Beatrice turned another leaf of the letter. "Oh, I always knew life held something for me besides existence here in Hamlin," the elder sister exclaimed, Twoom eaena wthtaate e FREE sbeonxd ohf ePra xabtlsnoet atwetityh book. oC —— —. ytioonars naamnde angedn audinder etsosr 0tia0v aaH paobsti.a l eSseide.d iamndpr doov ea nh ewre e*seraiisti* rt otrr eeI ta. lWaraee wtriialll eleai a i e s n as e a t - at- PAXTINE fcaacttairornhs ,a nsdo cIkn lrMaei mnaatslaola eBaetaatrsr •h f,c ypt aemMVt •oslonoeQ il,l Mbyt dlsroereet loecyaelstr, esaotrine eBtlte wel>t saamw>l •oerdmtnpaoryw earn odve rl itrheets e vountoo la Tbouaands of WOOMO "I Tell You I Have Decided He Adopt Your Mother." her face aglow with excitement.

I long: to look again in your face, Marrraret, for it la 12 years since we met. Now that I am alone in the world, my heart turns to you and your dear daughters. * I almost envy you, •iater. I would gladly give my wealth for your girls. I am going to borrow one of your treasures for the winter at least. Which one we will decide after I have had an opportunity of becoming acquainted with t£em.

Love to all. " Tour affectionate alster. '" 'KATHBRINE DILLION/ " ''Of course she'll take me," Bernice cried, a crimson flush staining her olive cheek. "Just think of dozens of new dresses and a winter in a fashionable southern resort!" Gladys sat bolt upright and opened her pale-blue eyes to their greatest extent. "I don't see why you should be so sure. Aunt Katherine loves music, and when she knows how eager I am to study under the better masters—n "Don't dispute, girls; it's vulgar," Beatrice said. "Mamma, a cup of fresh tea, please. You all seem to forget that I am the eldest and strongly resemble Aunt Katherine." Mrs. Dalley sighed as she hurried out to the kitchen after hot water for Beatrice's tea. No one remembered her own deep Joy at the coming of Katherine. "But I am selfish to think about myself," she concluded when dinner was over and she began clearing the table. "Katherine will be aa proud of my daughters as I am. No, girls. I don't need any help. I can do the dishes." The next few days were busy ones. Aa the exact date of Mrs. Dillon's arrival was uncertain, the Daileyi resolved to be ready at tbe earliest possible time when **• efedd he looeed for. She arrived at • * » « * * » morning, . » * ^^j^g^Hgn Margaret Dillon was a woman of. 40. Her fori* was slender but gracefully poised. Her face was much like, that of Bettjtri$e,.but the yeaxa had brought to it lines of thought as well as t* her blue-gray eyes a serene light. "Aunt Katherlae." both girls exclaimed, hurrying forward. Mrs. Dillon greeted her nieces affectionately. Gladys heard the hum of voices and came running down, her bow was still In her hand. When the aunt could make herself heard, she said softly: "You forget, my dears, that I want your mother^* Mrs. Dalley was busy In the kitchen. Through the open door, Katherine caught a glimpse of her. Springing forward, she caught her in a close embrace. There was a moment's silence. Then Mrs. Dillon held her sister at arm's length and carefully studied her face. Mrs. Dalley was worn and wan, she wore a faded but clean print press; her sleeves were rolled up above her elbows, and specks of flour clung to her toll hardened hands. Katharine Dillon's keen eyes noted the warm kitchen. Then she glanced at the'three girls. "What have you been doing with your mother, girlies? It Is not only that she Is warm*and tired, but what has brought this old look? You are only 40, Margaret, and should be a comparatively young woman." Tlie days went by. Mrs. Dillon's comfort and pleasure was so tfeftly ministered tp that she could not be grateful enough to the bright-faced girls whom she was learning to love. The only drawback to her enjoyment was her disappointment regarding her sister. -jWtat was wrong? Katherine did hot doubt her sister's love. But the hours of companionship she had looked forward to were few and unsatisfactory. Mrs. Dalley spent the greatest part of her time in the kltohen. When not there, she was silenfi'^er daughters evidently, not expecting her to take part in the conversation. She seldom went into society, read little, and was reaHy "behind the timfifi/' Mrs. Dillon gave the matter* rMch thought. She saw that the girls were much surprised when Bhe expected their mother to take her rightful place both at home and in the society of the little place. It was not easy to tell where the fault lay. A month passed. September gave place to October and the air grew crisp and invigorating. "A week more," Mrs. Dillon announced one morning at the breakfast table, "a week more of pleasure. Then we must decide which ojt, you is to go with me, and I must hie'me away to Chicago to provide a suitable outfit for myself and my companion." It was the first time she had directly mentioned the matter. The color deepened in each girl's cheeks, but they made no reply. They had all grown very fond of their aunt, and a winter with her had many attractions. The week that Mrs. Dillon had mentioned went by. They were against the breakfast table when the southern trip was referred to. "I shall start on Thursday," Katherine said. "Now as to who is to go with me." She paused and reflectively stirred her coffee. "Girls, I hope you will all be satisfied when I tell you : I have decided to adopt your mother." No one spoke. The canary trilled gayly, a passing wagon rattled airing the street, and Mrs. D^fcv finished her graham gem with apparent relish. Then she went on: '"h. mean it, girls. I- don't know whose fault It is, but that* ts something wrong in your borne. Instead ef being your friend and confidante, instead of being petted and care for, instead of enjoying the Indian summer of her life, your mother is a kitchen drudge. More than this—she It. fast approaching a oroaen-down and jove> leas old age. She may be aa much to blame as any one. I am going to make one effort to bring sunshine into her life. I shall take her to Chicago and purchase her a supply of suitable and. dainty clothing. Then I shall carry her to the south1 for the winter. She shall rest, read, enjoy-" pretty things and bright people, and be loved and petted. In the spring she shall come back to you—U you deserve her." •, - • ?. "Oh, Katherine, a W t , * cried' t h e mother. "I couldn't l e a f * a s * tfrla alone, and besides I wouidsxaj should have the pieasitaa>» • "Aunt Hester Main, fc^ er. Is to come and spend the here," was Katherine's .cool reply. About your going, let the girls speak for themselves." - ' Another pause. Then t h e latent nobleness of Margaret Dailey's daughters asserted itself. Beatrice arose and went round to her aunt. "We want her to go. Thank you, Aunt Katherine. Yen have taught us a lesson, and' w e needed it." Bernice added: "We will try to deserve her when she comes back." Gladys caught her mother In her arms. "Precious little mamma! We do love you, even If w e have been so careless." Mrs.' DHIon's programme was carried out. The. lesson was, as Beatrice had said, a needed one; hut, like many such, the learning of it was not pleasant. A quiet winter at home, sharing the duties that had been too long relegated to the mother, contrasted sharply with the pleasures each had confidently expected for herself. They missed and longed for the gentle presence they had %o little prized. The mother and- aunt, happy In each other, yet anxious for the real welfare of the girls at home, knew that a womanly care for the happiness of others was being developed in the nature of Margaret Dailey's daughters. The reform was a thorough one. In the spring the mother went back to be t h e real mistress of her honk) and the loved mother of her proud daughters. 8wise Naval Wars. References to the Swiss navy are usually jocular; but it is none the less a fact that ships of war once floated and even fought On the waters of the Lake of Geneva. The great fleet was that of the duke of Savoy, who at the beginning of the fourteenth century maintained a number of war galleys armed with rams and protected by turrets and propelled by 't( crew of Oarsmen varying In number from 40 to 72. These vessels hesieged Versoix antf even blockaded Geneva. Bui Genevk also had & fleet which helped in the capture of Chilon in 1536; and when the Bernese annexed the Canton of Vaud they too had their flotilla. Their largest v e s s e l was the Great Bear, with «4 oarsmen, eight guns, and 150 fighting men. • • •' • ' % , ' • The Appreciative Word.

Commodore Vanderbllt Had Not Forgotten Old Days. The coming of age of Miss Gladys Vanderbilt and the payment to her of some twelve millions of dollars inheritance has brought, out a new crop of anecdotes about the Vanderbilt fortune.

Sitting on the porch o f , a ionable hotel at a fashionable on one occasion, it is relate^ittto commodore saw a lady aproaemeg with whom he w a s acquainted. H i s wife and daughter, who recognized her, could scarcely contain their anger when he arose and politely addressed her. 1 "Don't you know," said the daughter after she had gone, "that horrid woman used to sell ..poultry to us?"

DiamundB have been found in t h e past, It is true, in Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Virginia and Wisconsin, to bay nothing of "r*ugh diamonds" In every community; but upon investigation it has turned out that the precious stones have been carried from the far north by a alowmoving glacier and left at the point where the ice melted. A 24-carat diamond of this description was found In Virginia In 1855. The- new mine In Pike county, Arkansas, discovered about a year ago, Is in a'body of igneous rock similar to the rock of the KImberley mines in South Africa. This volcanic rock fills a dike between two walls of harder rock. It is exposed over an area of a hundred acres. Since the* first stone was picked up in the summer of last year more than a hundred and thirty diamonds have been found. The largest weighs six and one-half carats. How the diamonds got into Pike county is unknown. Geologists say that there are two possible explanations. One is that the carbon, already crystallized, was forced up from t h e interior of the earth along with the molten rock, and was incased in it when t h e rock cooled. T h e other explanation is that the carbon, subjected to great heat and tremendous pressure, has crystallized in t h e place where the diamonds are now found. In other parts of the world there are placer diamond deposits which a r e explained as due to the same causes a s placer gold mineB. The richest diamond mines now known a r e in South Africa. They produce 98 per cent, of the stones sold every year. The diamond fields that were noted until t h e African mines were opened in 1867 are in Borneo, in India and in Brazil. What the Arkansas field will produce when properly worked no one can tell, says Youth's Companion, but its discovery has added another to the varied resources of this wonderful country.

In regard to graft, it is a popular saying among those who have not a keen sense of official honor, that it has always existed. This is put forth as an excuse, but does not lessen the enormity a tittle, and should fail to entitle those who have been engaged in it to any sympathy or freedom Irom condemnation. Sin has existed since the beginning of mankind, but we do not condone it on that account. We punish when possible its committers. The public conscience has been hardened by a contemplation of the number of people in high places who have boldly indulged in graft wi'.h 1hat fea^essness of consequences which distinguished the late Bill Tweed of brazen memory. It is time, declares t h e Boston Budget, that this abuse, to call it. by no worse name, should be regarded loss lightly. When it is we shall have more honesty in the administration of public offices, and more strict observance of both divine and human law. The expert alienists are rapidly adding to the list, of mental ailments and increasing the plain citizen's wonder. D u r i n g a certain late murder trial we heard much about, brain storms, mental explosions and the like, and the learned gentlemen who dealt in these terms would have ua believe t h a t such things were reconcilable with a rational state of mind. And here we have an expert testifying in a case involving belief in spiritualism that, a person might, have a "sane delusion." To many who are not alienists "sane delusion" is a term about as consistent as "a sick weil man." It seems that our state department at, Washington has not. only provided for examinations of aspirants for consular appointments, in order to ascertain their fitness for the service, but it is likewise furnishing competent talent for teaching what, may brrequisite to pass the examinations. Thus, Secretary Root, has lately granted permission to the chief of the bureau of trade relations of the stata department to accept a position on the faculty of one of the colleges, where he will be a regular lecturer on the consular service. This will help all round. It is a subject that calli / ' v tper.lal talent WENT DOWN LIKE A SHOT Story of the Sols Survivor Show* that Carcleesnosa with Hatches Caused the Sinking of the Steamer. Survivor's Story Confirmed. There now aeerns little doubt that the moat terrible marine disaster of the present season, the sinking of the Lackawanna freighter Cyprus Friday night near Deer Park, on Lake Superior, was due directly to the failure of the captain and the crew of the wrecked vessel to cover the hatches with the canvas tarpaulin designed for that purpose. The story of the sole survivor, Second Mate C. J. Pitt, and of Capt. Harbottle, of the Pittsburg Steamship company, steamer George Stephenson, the last vessel to see the Cyprus before she sunk, confirms this belief. It was late Saturday afternoon before Mate Pitt had recovered irom exhaustion sulliciently to give a coherent account of the wreck. He says the Cyprus was making fairly good weather in the seas, when suddenly the cargo shifted, giving the craft a heavy list. Water began pouring into the hatches and a panic ensued, many of the crew putting on life preservers. Capt. Huyck, however, felt confident he could reach shelter behind Whitefish point, and the boats were not lowered. Both engine and pumps were working, and the crew felt sure the vessel would not sink without warning. But the big freighter rolled over on her side and almost instantly plunged to the bottom. When the vessel rolled over the first and second mate, a watchman and a wheelsman were close to a life raft, which they cut loose and cast off just In time to escape the whirlpool which was caused by the Cyprus, as she plunged beneath the surface. The boat sunk about 7 o'clock, and until 2 a. m. the four men clung to this frail support, while the waves drove them ashore. Five times in the angry surf on the rocky shore the raft was upset and carried "off by the undertow. After the last battle with the surf the raft had but one occupant. The others, benumbed and exhausted, having given up the fight. The sixth time the raft was thrown high on the be^ch and Pitt crawled to safety, where he was later found by the life-saving patrolman. The Btory of the captain of steamer Stephenson throws additional light upon the mystery surrounding the sinking of the huge freighter in an ordinary gale of wind not sufficient to drive any but smaller lake craft to shelter. The captain of the Stephenson expressed the conviction that the vessel had foundered because her pumps were unable to handle the flood of water pouring into the doomed ship through her hatches. The Cyprus passed tho Stephenson about 1 p. m. Friday, so closely that Capt. Harbottle, of the latter ship, could easily see the deck of the Lackawanna freighter. He ways the canvas coverings for the hatches were not in )ilace and that the seas which were coming in on her quarter kept the decks of the Cyprus continually awash. The hitter's pumps were working and the water discharged was highly discolored by iron ore, indicating that the water had entered the hold nf the ship. Inasmuch as the Cyprus was a brand new vessel, there seems little likelihood that her plates had been strained in any manner, or that, a leak had developed below the water line. The Cyprus was on her second trip from the head of the lakes, having been built, at the Lorain yard of the American Shipbuilding Co., and launched August. 17. A Pathetic Story. A pathetic story was revealed at. the county house in Cassopolls following the death of Mrs. Lydia Mack, KB, an inmate of that institution. Her husband, John Mack, also an octogenarian, asked to see the undertaker who had been called, and informed him that in an old shop In the city of Dowagiac, hidden away in a tin can in a place which he gave directions to find, would be found money to pay the dead wife's funeral expenses. A search revealed a can containing $29, which had been saved from the old man's meager earnings during his later years and had been stored away by him when he worked In that. shop. Not. even the dire poverty which forced them to the county house a few weeks ago tempted him to use it for any other purpose. Logs on the Lakes. The great lakes up to and Including October 7 from the opening of navigation this year claimed a toll of 100 lives from the ranks of those who earn their living on and by the boats. At the same time the owners have been hit for a total loss of $1,500,000 by the elements, "mistakes" of navigators and other accidents. The chief Item in the monetary losses is that caused hy fire, the steamers Naomi and City of Cleveland going far towards bringing up the grand total for destruction through this cause to $1,000,306.

"The day on which the stock-gambling structure falls is. the day for which all honest men and women •hould pray." " R o b Brownley paused and let his eyes sweep his duinfounded audience. There was not a iu'urmur. The crowd was speechless. Again his eyes swept, the room. Then he slowly raised his r(ght hand with fist clenched, as though about to deal a blow. "Men of WalJ street"—his voice was now deep and solemn—fto show that Robert Brownley knew 'what was fitting for the last d^y of his career^ JUe ha3 revealed to you the trick—and more. , "Many of you are desperate.

He paused only long enough for his astounding advice to connect with his listeners' now keenly sensitive nerve centers; then deep and clear rang out, "Barry Conant." The wiry form of Bob's old antagonist leaped to the rostrum. "I authorize you to buy any part of 10,000,000 shares of the leading stocks at any price up to 50 points above the present market. There is my checkbook signed in blank, and I authorize you to use it up to a billion dollars, and I agree to have in bank to-morrow sufficient funds to meet any checks you draw. You have failed to-day for seven millions, and, therefore, cannot trade, but I herewith announce that I will pay all the indebtedness of Barry Conant and his house. Therefore he is now in good Btanding." Bob had kept his eye on the great clock; as the last word passed his lips, the president's gavel descended. With a mighty rush the gamblers leaped for the different poles. Barry Conant with lightning rapidity gave his orders to 20 of his assistants, who, When Bob Brownley called for Conant, had gathered around their chief. In less than a minute the dollar-battle of the age was on, a battle such as no man had .ever seen before.

The (nstant after the gong sounded Bob Brownley was alone on the floor at the foot of the president's desk- His form was swaying like a reed on the edge of the cyclone's path. 1 jumped to. bis sidq. His brother, who had during Bob's harangue been vain ly endeavoring to beat his way through the crowd, was there first. "For God's sake, Bob, hear me. Word came from your house half an hour ago of the miracle:, Beulab has awakened to her past. Her mind is clear; the nurses are frantic for you to come to her." He got no fuxther. With a mad bel low and a bound, like a tortured bull that sees the arena walla go down, Bob rushed out through the nearest door which, I thanked God. was a side one f - h o o i to the ffaftee? Thanks OooV that usually crowded thoroughfare wan free from vehicles as far up as I coo 16 •««, on, beytmd the Aator house., Whax could it mean? Was that divinity which 'tis said protects the drunkarc. and the idiot about to aid the, mat rush of this love-frenzied creature tthis long-loat but newly returned dearone? I heard the frantic clang o~ gongs, and as we shot by the Worlu building, I saw ahead of us two plunging automobiles tilled with men. 'Twa* from them the gong clamor sounded. Aa we, drew nearer I saw that these ware the cam of the fire chiefs answering a call. I thanked God again and again us I yelled into Bob's ear, "For Beulah's sake, Bob, don't pass; if you do, we'll run Into a blockade. If we keep In the rear they'll elear our way. and we may get to her alive." I do not know whether he heard, but be held the machine in the rear of the other cam and did not try to pass. Away we went on our mad rush through crowded Broadway. At Union Square we lost our way-clearer*. As our automobile jumped across Four teenth street into Fourth avenue, Bob must have opened her up to the last notch, for she seemed to leap through the air. We sent two wagons crashing across the sidewalks into the buildings. Cries of rage arose above the din of the machine, and seemed to follow in our wake. Bob was dead to all we passed. His entire belug seemed set on what waa ahead. I knew he was an expert in the handling of the automobile, for since his misfortune, automobiling with Beulab. Sands had been his favorite pastime, but who Beulah Sands Was Dead. leading to the street where the crowd was thinnest. We cast a wild look around. His eyes lighted on an empty automobile whoBe chauffeur had deserted to the crowd. It was the work oi a second to crank it; of another to jump into the front seat. Quick as had been his movement, I was behind him in the rear seat. With a bound the great machine leaped through the crowd. "In the name of Christ, Bob, he careful/' I yelled, as he hurled the iron monster through the throng, scattering it to the right and left as the mower scatters the sheaves in the wheat fields. Some were crushed beneath its wheels. Bob Brownley heard not their screams, heard not the curses of those who escaped. He was on his feet, his body crouched low over the steering wheel, which he grasped in his vice-like hands. His hatless head was thrust far out, as though it strove to get to Beulah Sands ahead of his body. His teeth were set, and as I had jumped Into the machine I bad noted that his eyes were those of a maniac, who saw sanity just a$ead if he could but get to it in time. Hia ears were deaf not only to the howl of the tetrifled throng and the-'curses of the teamsters who frantically pulled their horses to the curb, but to my warnings as well. He swung the machine around the corner at New street and into Wall as though it had been the broadest boulevard in the park: He took Wall street at a hound I was sure would land us through the fence into Trinity's churchyard. But no. Again he turned the corner, throwing the Juggernaut on its outside wheels from Wall street into Broadway as the crowds on the sidewalk held their breath in horror. I, toet was on my feet, but crouching could expect to earry that plunging, swaying car to Forty-second street! Bob seemed to be performing the wondrous task. We shot from curb to curb and around and in front of vehicles and foot, passengers as though the driver's eyes and hands were inspired. Across the square at last and on up Fourth avenue to Twenty-sixth street. Then a dizzying whirl into Madison. Was he going to keep to it until ho. got to Forty-second street and try to make Fifth avenue along that congested block with its crush of Grand Central passengers and lines upon lines of hacks and teams? No. His head must be clear. Again he threw the great machine around the corner and into Fortieth street. For a part of the block our wheels rode the sidewalk and I awaited the crash. It did not come. Surely the new world Bob was speeding to must be a kind one, else why should Hag Fate, who had been at the steering wneel of his life-car during the last five years, carry him .safely through what tooked a dozen sure deaths? Without slacking speed a jot we swung around the corner of Fortieth into Fifth avenue. The road was clear to Forty-second; there a dense jam of cars, teams and carriages blocked the crossing. Bob must have seen the solid wall for I heard his k.w muttered curse. Nothing else to indicate that we were hlocked with his goal in sight.

My breath waa almost gone and it took me minutes to get to the second floor. My feet touched the top stair, v. lien, O God! that sound! For five hug year* I had been trying to get it out of my ears, but now more guttural, more agunUed than before, it broke upon ray tortured senses. 1 did not need to seek its direction. With a bound I was at the threshold of Beulah Sauds-Brownley's office. In that brief time the groans had stilled. For one instant I closed my eyes, for the very atmosphere of that hall moaned and groaueci death. I opened them. Yes, I knew it. There at the desk waa the beautiful gray-clad figure of five years ago. There the two arms resting on the deak. There the two beautiful hands holding the open paper, but the eyes, those marvellous gray-blue doors to an immortal soul—they were closed forever. The exquisitely beautiful face was cold and white and peaceful. Beulah Sands was dead. The hellhounds of the "System" had overtaken its maimed and hunted victim; it had added her beautiful heart to the bags and barrels and hogsheads stored away in its big "buslness-is-business" safedeposit vaults. My eyes in sick pity sought the form of my old schoolmate, my college chum, my partner, my friend, the man I loved. He was on his knees. His agonized face was turned to his wife. His clasped hands had been raised in an awful, heartcrushing prayer as his Maker touched the bell. Bob Brownley's great brown eyes were closed, his clasped hands had dropped against his wife's head, and in dropping had unloosed the glorious golden-brown waves until in fond abandon they had coiled around his arms and brow as though she for whom he had sacrificed all was shielding his beloved head from the chills and dark mists of the black river that laps the brink of the eternal rest. The "System" had skewered Robert Brownley's heart, too. 1 staggered to his side. As I touched his now fast-icing brow my eyes fell upon the great black headlines spread across the top of the paper that Beulah Sands had been reading when the all-kind God had cut her bonds.- FRIDAY, THE THIRTEENTH.

Uncle Constantino, from Fishkill Landing, was in town recently, for the first time in 30 years, according to the New York Times. His relatives were industrious in showing him the sights, but it was extremely difficult to get him to express surprise at anything. He even made disparaging comments, now and then, upon what he saw, and drew comparisons favorable to his own town. One afternoon they attended a crowded performance at the circus. "Uncle Constantine," asked his niece, "did you ever see such a number of people gathered together before?" "Well," said the old man slowly, as his eye ran critically over the thousands that filled the garden, "I don't know as I ever did in a buildin', but I have to a bush-meetin'!" 3 to 3 3 to 1 5 to 1 6 to 1 2 to 0 Foxy Leopold. The parliamentary commission on the Congo Independent State accepted by 9 totes to 7, article 9 of the colonial bill, which provides that the Congo budget shall be drawn by Kins Leopold alone, without consultation with or submission to the chamber Shoud parliament ratify this action Belgium would be without direct control in the finances of her own colony, provided always that the annexation measure shall be adopted. This action of the commission, which the king controls, la entirely in line with his supposed policy of defeating annexation while seeming to favor it. It is not believed possible that the parliament will vote for tho bill under these conditions. Germany Buys Airships. The Tageblatt publishes a dispatch from Stuttgart saying that the airship and landing stage belonging to Count Zepplin. on the Lake of Constance, has been bought by the imperial government for 1500,000. Landing stations for balloons are to be established at Strasburg and Kiel, and the government has given Count Zeppelin a commission to build another airship of 285-horse power to carry 18 passengers. i Jack Simpkin* Dead. A body, believed to be that of Jack Simpkins, the missing member of the executive committee of the Western Federation of Miners, has been found near Pierce City, Idaho, badly decomposed. The only means of identifying the corpse wa3 a gun bearing a silver nameplate and Simpkins' name. Miners who knew Simpkins well positively identified the gun as one owned by Simpkins. It is thought that the man died in a snowstorm last winter. Jewish Outrages. Jewish outrages continue without adequate police intervention in Odessa. Monday bands of Black Hundreds surrounded the Hebrew cemetery where a funeral service was going on. First they stoned and then they fired a volley of revolver shots at the mourning Jews, many of whom were wounded The Jews fled in panic. THE MARKETS. Easily Explained. Her name was Marjorie and she was the sweetest child in the world, with all a child's wonderful thirst for the most out-of-the-way information. She had asked her mother to explain to her what wireless telegraphy was. Marjorie had often heard her father talking of wireless telegraphy, and she wanted to know all about it. So her mother tried to make it clear and explained how there were two long sticks standing high up in the air a very long way from each other, and how a message was sent from the one stick and— "Oh. I know," broke in Marjorie, "tlien God hears and tells the other people."

"My dear old mother, who is now eighty three years old, thrives on Electric Bitters," writes W. H. Bruoboii, of Dublin, (?u. "She has taken thera lor about two* years and enjoys an excellent uppe'ite, feel a strong and sleeps woll."

T e x a s has solved in a strenuous way the problem of killing monopolies and trusts. Under the new law the selling of goods manufactured by a Jrust is deemed a felony, and upon conviction the offender is subject to imprisonment for two to ten years in the penitentiary. Although the demand for hardwood lumber its gmtter than ever before, the aunual cut to day is a billion feet less than it was beven ^ears ago. In this time the wholsale price of the diderent classes of hardwood lumber advanced from 26 to 65 per cent. The cut of oak, which in 1899 was more than balf the total cut of hardwoods, has fallen off 136 per cent. Yell'iw popittr,which was loru erly second wi point of output, has fallen off 38 p^r cent, and elm baa fallen off one half The cut of softwoods is over four limes that of hardwoods, yet it is doubtful if a shortage in the former would cause dismay in so many industries. The cooperate, furn ture, and vehicle industries depend upon haidwood timber, and the railroads, telephone and telegraph companies, agricultural implement manufactures, and builders use it extensively. This leads to the question, Where is the future supply of hardwoods to be found? The cut in Ohio and Indiana which, beven years ago. led all other States,has fallen off one-half. Illinois Iowa, Kentuckey Michigan, Minnesota Missouri, New Jersy, Tenessee, Texas, West Virginia and Wisconsin have also declined in hardwood production. The chief centers of production now lie in the Lake States, the lower Mississippi Valley, and the Appalachian Mountians. Yet in the Lake States the presence of hardwoods is an al most certain indication of licb agricultural land. In Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi the production of hardwoods is clearly at its extreme height, and in Missouri and Texas it has already begun to decline. The answer to the question, therefore, would seem to lie in the Appalachian Mountains. They contain the largest body of hardwood timber left in the United States. On them grow the greatest variety of t'-ee species any where to Le found. Protected from fire and reckless cutting, they produce the best kinds of timber, since their soil and climate combine to make heavy stands and rapid growth. Yet much of the Appalachian forest has been so damaged in the past that it will be years before it will again reach a high state of productiveness. Twenty billion feet of hardwoods would be a conservative estimate of the annual productive capacity of the 75,000,000 a n d w u o had not released the-right of iray and all damages on aooount thereof to apeeres of forest lands in the A ppalacb- p«wr at the Una apd placa designated and to be heard with respect to such applicatioa ians il they were rigbt'y managed, if they so deaUreand to enow eanae if any there be way aaid apullcatijo should not be Until tbey are we can expect a short- granted *»d where** there ia now on fttfwith thie court the detsripiiou and survey of ouch proposed drain from Which said description and surrey it appears that the land* to be traversed by Huoh drain and the oommouoement, general course and teraunns of , Huch drain are at) follows io-wit: age in hardwood timber.

There is a story about the Duke of Wellington that illustrates the fantastic idea of honor held by many Spaniards, contrasted with the practical colhmou sense of Englishmen. When the duke was co-operating with the Spanish army In theTpeninsula against Napoleon he was desirous on one occasion during a general engagement that the general commanding the Spanish contingent should execute a certain movement on the field. He communicated the wish to the Spaniard personally and was somewhat taken aback to be told that |he honor of the king of Spain and uft army would compel him to refuse the request unless WeHington. as a foreiai officer graciously permitted to exwt j and light on Spanish soil, s t o l i d pre I sent the petition on his knee*L The old \ duke often u;*ed to tell the story after j ward, and he would say, "Now, I was ( extremely anxioiu^ to have the^,, move- j ment !-exec»tptt, and i dirhi'fy'care a | 'twopeady dniim* ubor.t ^ e u i i g on my j knees, so down 1 jumped!" j Theuse n 3UO w. 7a IO 45| i a 14 16 18 ao 32 2 4 «6 a? .(8 3» JO 41 3» 3¾ 3» 34 3*Sl 38 40 4 ' 4 4 I46 1*8 I50 jSa !S4 !s6 75 * 3 10 8a 63 a7 75 4» 3 77 1 8a 5 81 I t a 6 4 1 7 . 8 5 . » 0 . 4 0 • 0 3 5 XW. i u ao.85 5 8 0 5 . » 5 6 « 3 5 V « 5 - ^ 5 jOraoe trgm commencement to st. »0 1 oft. set mila Tarn to • AIM rainutw_of Brawa JP01*- .Ctmxaix^pd at aaala «. it* ^ f l M IJvvJ4 , ^ , * * V^fil^Tawd of Thos. 0.

The price of eggs during the wint.T \ months is double and sometimes more than double that p..:. tbe summer months. The only way t o take advantage of this advance i to hold summer eggs for winter prices.

TESTING ARMY OFFICERS The Miners to Lose the Services of John Mitchell—News From Various Sources and Sections. Issue Sharply Drawn. The nineteenth annual convention <of the National Association of Railway Commissioners Indicated that while t h e disposition to run counter to federal control of railways is not so strong as at the opening of the convention, the committee on "rates and rate making" take* a sharp issue w ^ J J a e national s j o w n m e p t . ^t *toid# 3hat*federal Control' is Impwwfble wrthb*s**rf amendment to the constitution* The committee maintains tHat the demand of the people i s that the control of rates be lodged as near at home as possible. The committee also urged uniformity of action between t h e federal and state railway authorities and that, in some instances at least, the state railway commissioners act as agents for the Interstate commerce commission. The report of the committee on uniform classification was adopted after a strong debate. It asks that the Interstate commerce commission be given the power to classify interstate r a t e s uniformly. Stood KSftseV*rt¥s Test. If a 16-mile Jog along good roads is an example of the hardships of war, the line officers of the department of the lakes are ready to go into ac tion at an hour's notice. Such $s the substance of a report based upon a test ride made by Brig.-Gen. W. H. Carter and 31 regimental officers yesterday. This phase of the Rooseveltian plan of keeping the blood circulating in the different branches of the government •was carried out with Fort Sheridan as headquarters, and the actual time taken was about two hours and a half —an, average of ten miuutes to the mile. -JPhysicial examinations were given the riders before and after the trial of horsemanship. These were conducted by Col. Philip F. Harvey, assistant aurgeoiH?e»e*af©f the army, and Majs Edward I,. Munson, post surgeon at Fort Sheridan. In advance they pronounced all of the officers fit to ride, and their second examination showed but slight signs of any disabilities. John Mitchell to Retire. ,Johu Mitchell, president of the United Mine Workers, announces that he will not be a candidate for re-election a s president. He says that he does not regard himself as well enovigh to attend to the office. It is said, at headquarters that Mr. Mitchell will finish his prese n t term as president, which expires April 1 of next year. Mitchell underwent a surgical operation about six months ago, and it is said that he has not fully recovered and that it is possible it will be necessary for another operation to be performed. To Colonize Korea. A large colonization company is being formed in Tokio supported by Prince I to, Japanese resident general in Korea, for the development, of the agricultural and other natural resources of that country. It is expected that the new scheme will indirectly affect the emigration of Japanese to America, furnishing an outlet, for the surplus population near homo. In connection with the subject of emigration it. may bu stated that the regulations recently adopted are stricter than it. was anticipated they would be. Six emigration companies have already been dissolved, and several others will shortly go out of business. It was these companies that were responsible for much of the Japanese agitation against the United States. Employes Laid Off. The Pressed Steel Car Co., of Pittsburg, has dispensed with 5,000 of its 12,000 employes. The present unsettled condition of the railroads is responsible for laying off the workmen. Many contracts have ben cancelled, while in other instances the railroads are holding back specifications on cars that have been ordered, and which cannot be built until the specifications are given. Most of the foreigners thus thrown out of employment are hurrying to the coal mining towns, where they will be welcomed, as the mining companies have not enough men successfully to operate their mines. Queen of the Seas. The turbine steamship Lusitania is o,ucen of the seas. She finished her second run to New Pork Thursday morning and anchored near the Sandy Hook lightship, waiting until sunrise before entering the harbor through the new Ambrose channel. She made the voyage from D a u n t s Rock across the Atlantic in four days, nineteen hours and fortv minutes. Slip is the first four-day boat, to cross from land to land and she now hulds all the records of^efce western-ocean. Cassis Chadwlck, Convenes, Woman, Die* Jn Ohio Prison. Mrs. Cassie Chadwicfc, whose amaa- Ing financial transactions culminated in the wrecking of an Oberlin bank, died in the woman's ward at the Ohio penitentiary Thursday night. Mrs, Chadwlck had been in a comatose condition for some hours previous to her death and the end came peacefully. Her name was Elisabeth Bigley and *he was a native of Woodstock, Canada. She first came into public notice In Toledo, O., about 20 years ago, where she told fortunes, under the name of Madame Deviere. While in this city she forged the name of Richard Brown, Youngstown, 0., and for this crime was sent to the penitentiary at Columbus for nine years. She served but a portion of this sentence and then located in Cleveland, where she married a man named Hoover. Her second husband was Dr. Leroy S. Chadwlck, of Cleveland, a man of good family and excellent standing in his profession. In the latter part of 11*432, or early in 1903, Mrs. Chadwlck, in the presence of her husband, gave to Ira Reynolds, the cashier of the Wade Park bank, of Cleveland, a box containing notes signed with the name of Andrew Carnegie. These forged notes are alleged to have amounted to $7,500,000. Reynolds gave a receipt for the papers, which described the notes and the signatures upon them. Mrs. Chadwick left with Reynolds as an explanation of the notes, the statement that she was a natural daughter of Carnegie. With the receipt of Reynolds in her possession, Mrs. Chadwlck went to different banks and many capitalists, making loans and paying, not only big interest to the banks, but heavy bonuses to bank officials who loaned her the money. The exact amount of these transactions will never be fully known, but they run up into the millions. They^ involved men of high standing in the' financial world and caused heavy losses to many banks. Kellogg's Quest Succeeds. From statements culled from ledgers and books found in the offices of the Standard Oil Co., Frank B. Kellogg, counsel for the United States government, has succeeded in placing on record of the federal proceedings /against the oil combine the processes and stages through which the combine passed In its changes from the old Standard Oil trust to the present Standard Oil Co., of New Jersey. Out of the maze of figures developed in a voluminous mass from the company's books and from testimony given by Clarence G. Fay, assistant auditor of the Standard, called as a witness Tuesday, the government's counsel says he believes he has proved the federal allegation that the Standard is an illegal corporation and that by devices has maintained its entity and that it is under the same ownership as when it was formed. A Victory for Peace, The adoption by the peace congress at The Hague of obligatory arbitration is regarded as a great victory for the United States. The projects involved, a permanent international high court of justice, court of arbitral justice, obligatory arbitration and universal arbitration, all were presented by Joseph H. Choate, the first American delegate, 'and fought for unceasingly by him. The vote, 31 to 9, showed the only opponents to be Montenegro, Bulgaria, Greece, Turkey, Switzerland, Roumania, Belgium, Austria and Germany. Every one of the nations on the American continent, stood by the United States, thus ending reports of disaffection among Latin-American countries. Germany, which opposed the schemes, had tried to get support from some of these countries, thus increasing the value of the victory scored by the United States. Mae Wood's Suit. The names of several promising government, officials are likely to figure in the suit for divorce Mae Wood has brought against Senator Thomas C. Piatt. Among the documents Miss Wood has in her possession is a paper which purports to be the confession if a former secret service agent. She will endeavor to get this in evidence it the trial. In this paper appear the lames of William Loeb, Jr., secretary :o President. Roosevelt, and Robert J. Wynne, formerly postmaster-general mil now consul-general at London. The illeged confession is dated October 15, 1003. Millions in Timber. Major Ahearn, who has been at the lead of the forestry department In he Philippines since 1900, is enthusllstic over the commercial value of the islands and their possible development. He said the islands contain 40,000 square miles of valuable timber, chlefy pine. The forest products are waitng only to be cut and carried to the ?ea. Major Ahearn mentioned one concession of fiO square miles t h a t ilready had returned a profit of |4,- )00,000. Thousands of such tracts are eady* to be given away for a term of !5 years. Taft in China. No foreigner was ever before given aich a hearty welcome to China as hat accorded to Secretary Taft, who irrlved in China Tuesday. His recepion on the part, of the natives was in •,harge of the heads of the great comnercial guilds that control the business of China, and there were 45 .of .hem represented, and nothing was left mdone to demonstrate £h& cordial friendliness of China for'Tboth him md the nation he represents. ^UwTfc«N<** m WWHTIQHw,.!.-:-™ invalid's Mtftl «Vlfl«ntiJ Mjaj Not Increased Good Humor.

The merchant realized that there would be a restraint to his appetite, yet he saw, In vision, a modest, steaming meal placed at his bedside. , "Here Is your dinner," said the nurse next day, as she gave the glowering patient a spoonful of tapioca pudding, "and the doctor emphasizes that everything else you do must b« in the s a m e proportion."

"Make me up a package of tobacco according to the formula used by Edwin Booth," said the man with a southern a c c e n t "That is the third man who has asked for that kind of tobacco to-day," said the dealer. "It is strange that people from remote parts of the country as well as New Yorkers make u fad of buying the same brand of tobacco that Booth smoked. And it isn't always the Booth mixture that they want. I have filed away the formulas for mixing the favorite tobacco of many famous persons. Smokers the country over have heard of this collection of recipeB and* one feature of every man's trip to* New York is to try a pipeful of some big man's favorite tobacco. In most cases this special mixture Is so strong that the nerves of the average smoker cannot stand it.

A boy. in Delaware tried the experiment two months ago. He was badly bitten in making the bell fast, but he turned the rat loose and expected the tinkling of that bell would have great results. It did have. In the first place, the rat who wore it was constantly on the move all night, and the tinkling bell kept the family awake, and in the next the sounds brought scores of new rats to the house. Instead of being afraid of the bell, they were charmed with the music.

Kay Spence, a well-known horseman of Mexico, Mo., won 11,000 at tha Louisville, Ky., race meeting a short time ago as the result of a "hunch." Mr. Spence has a large breeding stable of "runners" near Mexico, and attends all the big racing events i n the country. Not long sine* he w a i in Louisville and entered the betting ring to see what odds were being offered on t h e ' Various entries. Ha found that Joaquin was the favorite at even money, and polled Ms wallet from his pocket, intending to bet on that horse. His attention waa attracted by something that fell from his wallet to the ground, and he stooped and picked it up. It waa a Chinese laundpy ticket. H e looked a t the "books" again and found that there was an entry with a Chinese name, Wing Ting, at ten to one. That settled it, for he considered he had received a "hunch" that could not be overlooked. Winfr Ting won handily. Needless to say, those who backed t h e favorite considered^ Sbence the seventh son of the sevehtn^Bon,—Kansas City Star. « BOO-HOO » > Shouts a SpanKed Baby. A Doctor of Divinity, now Editor of a well-known Religious paper, has written regarding the controversy between Collier's Weekly and the Religious Press of the Country and others, including ourselves. Also regarding suits for libel brought by Collier's against us for commenting upon its methods. These are his sentiments, with some very emphatic words left out. "The religious Press, owes you a debt of gratitude for your courage in showing up Collier's Weekly as the "Yell-Oh Man." Would you care to use the inclosed article on the "Boo Hoo Ilaby" as the "Yell-Oh Man's successor?" "A contemporary remarks that Collier's has finally run against a solid hickory "Post" and been damaged in its own estimation to the tune of 1750,000.00." "Here Is a publication which has, in utmost disregard of the facts, spread broadcast damaging statements about the Religious Press and others and has suffered those false statements to go uncontradicted until, not satisfied after finding the Religious Press too quiet, and peaceful, to resent the insults, It makes the mistake of wandering into fresh field and butts Its rattled head against this Post and all the World laughs. Even Christians smile, as the Post, suddenly turns and gives it back a dose of its own medicine." "It is a mistake to say all the World laughs. No cheery laugh comes from Collier's, but. it cries and boo hoos like a spanked baby and wants $750,000.00 to soothe its tender, lacerated feelings." "Thank Heaven It has at last struck a man with "back bone" enough to call, a spade a "spade" and who believes in telling the whole truth without fear or favor." Perhaps Collier's with its "utmost disregard for the facts," may say no such letter exists. Nevertheless it is on file in our office and is only one of a mass of letters and other data, newspaper comments, etc., denouncing the "yellow" methods of Collier's. This volume is so large that a man could not well go thru It urrdor half a day's steady work. The letters come from various parts of America. Usually a private controversy is not Interesting to the public, but this is a puhlic controversy. Collier's has been using the "yellow" methods to attract attention to itself, but, jumping in the air, cracking heels together and yelling "Look at me" wouldn't suffice, so it started out on a "Holier Thati Thou" attack on the Religious Press and on medicine* We leave it to the puhlic now, as we did when we first resented Collier's attacks, to say whether, in a craving for sensation and circulation, its attacks do not amount to a systematic mercenary hounding. We likewise leave i t to the public to say whether Collier's, by its own policy and methods, has not made itself more ridiculous than any comment of our6' could m a k e i t . • • ! > < • , Does Collier's expect to regain any self-inflicted loss of prestige by demonstrating thru suits for damages, that it can be more artful in evading liability for libels than the humble but resentful victims of its defamation, or does it hope for starting a campaign of libel suits to silence the popular indignation, reproach and resentment which it has aroused. Collier's can not dodge this public controversy by private law suits. It can not postpone the public judgment, against it. That great jury, |the Public, will hardly blame us for not waiting until wo get a petit jury in a court room, before denouncing this prodigal detractor of institutions founded and fostered either by .Individuals or by the public, itself. No announcements during our entire business career were ever made claiming "medicinal effects" for either Postum or Grape-Nuts. Medicinal effects are results obtained from the use of medicines. Thousands of visitors go thru our entire works each month and see for themselves that Grape-Nuts contains absolutely nothing but wheat, barley and a little salt; Postum absolutely nothing but wheat and about ten percent of New Orleans Molasses. The art of preparing these simple elements In a scientific manner to obtain the best food value and flavor, required some work and experience to acquire. Now, when any publication goes far enough out of its way to attack us because our advertising Is "medical," it simply offers a remarkable exhibition of ignorance or worse. We do claim physiological or bodily results of favorahle character following the adoption of our suggestions regarding the discontinuance of coffee and foods which may not. be keeping the individual in good health. We have no advice to offer the perfectly healthful person. His or her health is evidence in itself that the beverages and foods used exactly fit that person. Therefore, why change? But to the man or woman who Is ailing, we have something to say as a result of an unusually wide experience in food and the result of proper feeding. In the palpably ignorant attack on us in Collier's, appeared this statement,—" One widely circulated paragraph labors to induce the impression that Grape-Nuts will obviate the necessity of an operation in appendicitis. This is lying and potenttally deadly lying." In reply to this exhibition of—well lot the reader name it, the Postum Co., says: Let It he understood that appendicitis results from long continued disturbance in the intestines, caused primarily by undigested Btarchy food, such as"'white bread, potatoes, rice, partly cooked cereals and Buch. Staffchy food is not digested i n t h e upper stomach but passes on into the duodenum, or lower stomach and intestines,, where, in a healthy individual, the transformation of the starch into a form of sugar is completed and then the food absorbed by the blood. Hut if the powers of digestion are weakened, a part of the starchy food will He in the warmth and moisture of the body and decay, generating gases and irritating the mucous surfaces until under such conditions the whole lower part of the alimentary canal, including the colon and • the appendix, becomes involved. Disease sets up and at times takes the form known as appendicitis. When the Bymptoms of the trouble make their appearance, would it not be good, practical, common sense, to discontinue the starchy food which is causing the trouble and take a food in which the starch has been transformed into a form of sugar in t h e process of manufacture? This is identically the same form of sugar found in the human body after starch has been perfectly" digested. Now, human food is made up very largely of starch and Is required by the body for energy and warmth. Naturally, therefore, its use should be continued, if possible, and for the reasons given above it is made possible in the manufacture of G^ape-Nuts. In connection with this change of food to bring relief from physical disturbances, we have suggested washing out the intestines to get rid of the immediate cause of the disturbance. Naturally, there are cases where t h e disease has lain dormant and the abuse continued too long, until apparently only the knife will avail. But it is a well-established fact among t h e best physicians who are acquainted with the details above recited, that preventative measures are far and away the best. Are we to be condemned for suggesting a way to prevent disease by following natural methods and for perfecting a food that contains no "medicine" and produces no "medicinal effects" but which has guided literally thousands of persons from sickness t o health? We have received during the years past upwards of 25,000 letters from people who have been either helped or m a d e entirely well by following our suggestions, and they are simple. If coffee disagrees and causes any of the ailments common to some coffee users quit it and take on Postum. • If white bread, potatoes, r i c e a t t s ^ other starch foods make trouble, ajsjfjp and use Grape-Nuts food whicsj' l a v . largely predigested and will dsfsSBV nourish and strengthen, when other forms of food do not. It's just plain old common sense. "There's a Reason for Postum and. Grape-Nuta. Poatum Cereal Co,, Ltd, :*?..<. ' ' ! •(-!. 80ME OF THEM MEASURE TWENTV- FOUR INCHES ACROSS.

Every imaginable color and shape are shown, yet all of them on the generally round shape, overloaded with elaborate trimmings. Ipvery «ort of .trimming and material is put t o use. The only stipulation made is that the hate complete sbaU show a soft combination of col* ors that harmonize one with the other, with no brilliant contrasts. Some of the big hats measure nearly 25 inches from side to side, and many of them are trimmed with what the shopkeepers called a "simple style." That simple style consists of one huge bird of paradise with its long beak towards the- front of the hat and its beautiful plumage spreading alniost over the entire crown. These birds are perhaps the most expensive form of trimming, owing, to their scarcity, but the shops are showing many soft, fluffy feathers made of marabout and cock plumes which answer the purpose and do not i cost one-tenth as much as a bird of paradise. Let the home-sewer remember that these big bell-shaped hats require much trimming. Some of them are very pretty with just a large bow of ribbon on them. To make a bow suf- J&dientljf large for the up-to-date hat, it wilt take at least two yards of taffeta silk, cut bn the biaa,in ten-Inch BtripB. If you trim the hat with ribbon instead of the bias • silk, you heed at least six yards to make a full bow, ancl th4 ribbon should be 'ffom eight to 12 inches in width. For a 8moker. Please Mme.

Dear Madam—You have been so kind and helpful to me before will you kindly assist me in planing a luncheon, I want to entertain twelve ladies. My idea is to use autumn leaves . Please tell me some pretty way to, »9c them. B. T. M. Yonr idea is a good one. Use the leaves for decorations and scatter over the table cloth. The place cards may be leaf shape, colored with paint or some of the crepe papers come in autumn leaf design. They re lovely when cut out and suspendt h t taMa by ruvialble thread. The "smoker" invitations are written in the name of a man for whom the affair is given, with day, date and hour, the word "smoker" in the lower left-hand corner. This shows the guests that there will be no ladies present. As to the game of cards to be played, it depends entirely upon the man and his guests. Of course, at present everything is "bridge," though many play whist, euchre and rive hundred. The decorations should he very simple, howls and vases of nasturtiums, asters, geraniums or carnations. Men arc proverbially fond of red carnations. I should sorve a herring or anchovy canape first, potato salad, sandwiches, coffee and chocolate ice cream. The drinks, if you have any, I should leave to the man in the case. He will know just what to have and how to serve it. Regarding a Book of Entertainments.

It would seem to me, my dear, that a wedding gown should be the last. thing for a 16-year-old girl to be contemplating, but as I do not know the circumstances, I suppose I muan't Judge. White wool challis, brilliantines, serge, and what they call taffetas are all good. Thin materials are much worn all through the winter and aa you do your sewing, why not make up an elaborate lingerie gown? 1CADA_T_ MRRRL RHEUMATISM RECIPE PREPARE « I M P H HPME-MAOC MIXTURE YOURSELF. Buy the Ingredients from Any Druggist In Your Town and Shake Them In a Bottle to Mix This. A well-known authority on Rheumatism gives the readers of a large New York dally paper the following valuable, yet ainiple and harmless prescription, which any one can easily prepare at home: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Saraaparilla, three ounces. Mix by shaking well in a bottle, and take a teaapoonful after each meal and at bedtime. He states that the ingredients can he obtained from any good prescription pharmacy at small cost, and, being a vegetable extraction, are harmless to take. This pleasant mixture, if taken regularly for a few days, is said to overcome almost any case of Rheumatism. The pain and swelling, if any, diminishes with each dose, until permanent results are obtained, and without injuring the stomach. While there are many so-called Rheumatism remedies, patent medicines; etc., some of which do give relief, few really give permanent results, and the above will, no doubt, be greatly appreciated by many sufferers here at this time. Inquiry at the drug stores of even the small towns elicits the information that these drugs are harmless and can be bought separately, or the druggiBts will mix the prescription if asked to. SEEK TO W I N SOLDIER3. Russian Girls Risk Life for the Cause of Liberty. "When the university opened last autumn I started to work again among the soldiers," said the young woman. "As you know, the revolutionists are at present working very bard to win over the army, and one of the means is to talk freedom directly to the soldiers. For this girls have been found'to be more effective than men; the young peasant soldiers *are more willing to listen to girls, and are far readier to protect them from arrest So all over Russia hundreds and hundreds of girls are now nightly meeting with groups of soldiers, in working men's homes and in barracks.

BABY WASTED TO SKELETON. In Torments with Terrible Sores on Face and Body—Tore at Flesh —Cured by Cuticura. "My little son, when about a year and a half old began to have sores come out on his face. They began to come on his arms, then on other parts of his body, and then one came on his chest, worse than the others. At the end of about a year and a half of suffering he grew so bad I had to tie his hands in cloths at night to keep him from scratching the sores and tearing the flesh. He got. to be a mere skeleton and was hardly able to walk. I sent to the drug store and got a cake of Cuticura Soap and a box of Cuticura Ointment, and at the end of about two \ months the sores were all well. He has never had any sores of any kind since, and only for the Cuticura Remedies my precious child would have died from these terrible sores.

Two quaint observations about hum mlng birds are published in "Early Long Island," by Martha Flint, both quoted from letters of the seventeenth century, written from the new country of America. Says one: "The Humblrd is one of the wonders of the country, being no bigger than a Hornet, yet having all the Demensions of a Bird as bill, wings with quills, spider-like legget, small claws. For Colour she Is as glorious as the Raine bow." Adrian Van der Donck, one of the Hollanders of Nleuw Nederlandt in 1642 writes of a— "Curious small bird concerning which there are disputations whether it is a bird or a bee. It seeks its nourishment from flowers like the bee and is everywhere seen regaling itself on the flowers. Tn flying they make A humming noisn like the bee.

The flouring mills of this place, whiob nave been in existence ever hi nee before the village was thought of, are practically shut down on account of lack of water, caused b> the verdict of the Supreme Court ordering the water lowered 20 inches. There is not enough water to run the flouring stand at all and the feed can only ran at less than one-third its capacity and then does not do good work* It seems to bad that such a state of things should exist over a small parcel of land of as little value as that in question. The mill has always been and still is a great factor in the building and keeping up of the village and some move should be made to retain it. Mr. Peters purchased the mill several years ago of Thos.

The set*rtjtton of stay-at-homeB in the country Is perhaps passing away—the women—they were chiefly women— who prided themselves on their selfimprisonment on farm or in village aa a virtue, serving to demonstrate their devotion to home and children and duty. There is a class of men In the business world who have the same point of view In regard to the object of life. Such a one, dying at the age of 88, left a record of 55 years as the head of a banking house, during which h e had been absent from his desk but two days—and those were accounted for by a sprained aukle. No vacation, no travel, no day of summer leisure with wife and children—55 years of steady, unswerving routine! There is something Impressive in the story of a lifetime of persistent toil. But there !g another point of view which deserves respect. The gadabout may be a useless member of society; but the stay-at-home is likely to be a narrow one. We find ourselves on this little planet, with Its oceans and mountains and mighty rivers and wide prairies. We know not whence we came, nor if we shall ever pass this way again. Surely, exclaims Youth's Companion, we may do our task better in our own appointed place if we look about the world, feed our minds with the glories of nature, and discover how men and women before us have lived their lives, and embodied their.aspirations in the great arts of building and paintinc and sculpture. A New York woman who is a famous Authority on cooking has gone bankrupt while endeavoring to cater to the appetites cf the people of her town, where she ran two restaurants. ThiB innocent person should have known that the way to make money in New York is to lay in a dozen celluloid sandwiches and a large stock of alcoholic beverages. To try to tempt the New Yorker with good cooking is one of the strangest, vagaries thus far recorded, declares the Chicago News. W h a t he wants is something to stimulate his thirst, not allay his appetite. It is well known that good cooking tends to destroy the craving for drink. Yet this expert in the culinary art deliberately undertook to practice her specialty in Gotham! New Yorkers do not want their craving for drink destroyed, so they probably breathe more freely, now that the scientific cookshopi have landed In bankruptcy. The New York board of education is to investigate the question of corporal punishment, as it has been charged that the discipline of the schools has been undermined by the powerlessness of the teachers to punish and the advantage taken by the children in their knowledge of this immunity. Is Solomon to be vindicated in these modern times and his wisdom admitted when he said that to spare the rod was to spoil the child?

General primary bill, fixing the first Tuesday in September as general primary day. Military bill, increasing the per capita tax from rive to six cents, appropriating $40,000 for state armories and providing pay for enlisted men.

To restrict lobbying by requiring lobyista to register, and compelling corporations employing them to make a statement of amounts paid them. To restrict watering of stock and over-capitalization by steam and electric railroads by giving the board of railroad commissioners supervision over such matters. The man who makes two blades of grass grow where only one grew be- [ fore was long ago pointed out as de- ; serving well of his fellow creatures, but if distinction is duo to such a one, what, asks the Chicago News, shall ^\9 said of the man who develops a race of hens that would habitually lay more than one egg a day? Surely no tribute of honor and gratitude could be too great for such a one. Prof. Gllman A. Drew of the University of Maine may be the one to whom such debt will eventually be paid, for he has been conducting studies and experiments which lead him to believe that there is no biological reason why a hen should not lay morn than one egg a day. This being true it follows that the same American enterprise which increases the quantity of all other agricultural products will be turned to the hen and compel her to do her full duty. A hen's time is'of no value in other directions, and if she can occupy what has hitherto been idle leisure in producing more eggs, then no laziness on her part should be permitted. She should have no afternoons off. The eyes of the world are now expectantly fixed on Drew and the further results of his experiments. Sensation followed sensation in the final session of the legislature. /First, Governor Warner read the riot act to the legislature in a final message, when he took the members to task for failing to pass the kind of a primary election bill he favored. The members retaliated by endeavoring to secure a quorum in the senate in order that a stinging rebuke in the form of a resolution might be read into the record. In the effort to secure a quorum the Lansing chief of police and two officers were pressed into service, Lieutenant Governor Kelley refusing to allow senate officials to search for the missing men. Shortly before time for adjournment a quorum was secured through the efforts of the police and the senate resolution was passed and went into the record. The vote was 15 to 2. The legislature succeeded in passing the boxers' primary bill, the administrationists capitulating at the last moment and running up the white flag. They declared the boxers' bill was better than none at all. PRIMARY BTLL FIGHT. In token of defeat the senate administration force reported out the ooxer primary bill and passed it with dispatch, meekness and resignation. This decision was reached after a conference following the defeat of the Dickinson bill that had been sent over from the house. It was a foregone conclusion that the session could not be held over another day and the administrationists came to the conclusion that they did not care to accept the responsibility of having the session close without at least abolishing the double primary system which has proved so costly. Senator Fyfe acted as spokesman, and in reporting out the bill said that while it was not just the kind of a bill that ought to be passed, he was convinced that it was the best that could be obtained under the circumstances. The boxers were so taken by surprise that they could hardly believe their senses and there was a rush for the clerk's desk to see if some trick was not being played. The bill was gone over very carefully to see that no changes had been made and then the work of passing the bill was taken up. Senator Fyfe wanted to insert an amendment that would make it clear that, the 40 per cent provision applied to the governor and lieutenant governor, specifically, but even this, was denied him, the others contending that, the context, showed very cleraly what was meant. On the final passage of the bill the vote was 28 to 2, Whitney and Ely voting against, it, the former because he is against primary reform and Ely from chagrin. The house had adopted the senate concurrent resolution to wind up business at midnight when the bill was sent over and it was decided to get the thing over with before taking any recess. Representative Dickinson devoted twenty minutes to explaining the provisions of the bill and pointing out the differences between it and his own bill, after which it was passed, 75 to 4. So far aa being a workable measure the new bill is vastly superior to the present law. In addition It provides for one primary day Instead of two and gives the people a chance to nominate candidates for United States senator. The big point on which the governor lost out is the provision requiring that candidates for governor and lieutenant governor must secure 40 per cent of the vote cast to secure a nomination H retained. The practical effect of this is that unless some candidate for governor shows t h a t he is the popular choice the nomination will be made by a state convention. Some Glaring Defects. There are several glaring defects in the bill, due to the prejudice that exists in some sections of the state, as rejected by their senators, as to how far the primary system should be extended. Several senatorial districts now operating under the primary system will be affected under the newlaw. It is provided that in senatorial districts where all the counties do not operate under the primary, the proposition must be resubmitted by petition. Under the last senatorial reapportionment several primary counties were joined to convention counties, with the result that they will have to petition to have the primary proposition submitted and in case the convention county polls the largest vote will not get it. The biggest change from the present law is the provision relating to the election of delegates to the county convention which in turn elects delegates to the state convention. It is provided that only counties which nominate county officers by the pri- ! mary system shall elect delegates to I the county convention by the primary system. This will hit some thirtyfive counties in the state. I Wayne Back to Caucuses. ! It will result in throwing Wayne [ back to the caucus system to choose j delegates to the county convention, | for the reason that. Wayne, Kent, Muskegon and Alpena counties are exempted from the provisions of the bill, and Wayne has no local act to cover that point. Summed up, the bill aims to make the primary system optional instead of compulsory in the various districts. "We are greatly pleased with the working features of the bill," was the only comment that Attorney-General Bird had to make regarding the bill. Tlmt the administrationists are mad clear through is putting it mildly, but they were outgeneraled, The boxer bill had so many features that could not be overlooked that It threw the burden of action upon them. They waited until the last moment, fondly hoping that some boxer would desert and finally, with defeat but a question of minutes, they wilted. Found a Coal Mine. It has been discovered that Michi gan Odd Fellows were fortunate in buying Cooley park, of 81 acres, in Jackson, for the home for aged members and orphans. They secured with it a coal mine. The coal is from two to four feet thick atfd the average quality of Jackson county coal. It is found at a depth of 60 feet on the west and between 90' and 100 feet, on the eastern part of the property. W. F. Ward, who owns adjoining coal leases, says this coal will yield fromv 3,000 to 7,000 tons per acre and that the revenue would amount to from $250 to $700 per acre. He estimates that the coal covers an area of about 40 acres. Taft to the Filipino*. Secretary Taft opened t h e Philippine assembly in the National theater Thursday morning in the presence of a large orowd of people. In his address Mr. Taft reiterated his former statement regarding the Philippine islands, declaring that his views announced two years ago reg a r d i n g ' the independence of the Philippine people were unchanged. He did not believe that they would be fitted to govern themselves for a t least a generation, but he added that the m a t t e r was entirely in the hands of congress. T h e secretary denied emphatically that the United States had any Intention of disposing of the Islands, said h e had absolute confidence in the Filipinos, dented that he was disappointed in their Inability to legislate conservatively, and asserted his belief that they felt their responsibilities apd acknowledged the necessity of supporting the American government. Mr. Taft refrained from making any suggestions regarding specific legislation on the part of the Philippine assembly, but he recommended that attention be paid to the civil service. Fighting Chinese Boxers. The Imperial Chinese troops detached from the Yang-tse-Kiang valley cantonments since the antt-missionary outbreak at Nan-Kang-tsien, have driven the so-called Boxer rebelB Into the mountains on the borders of Kwang-Tung. In an engagement at Chung-Yi, the troops killed 70 of the insurgents. The government has cashiered many local officials on account of the disorders in the south of China, all of which the government believes, were connected with the revolutionary movement and especially with the anti- Manchu organization headed by Sun-Yat-Sen. Trouble on Lake Steamers. Typhoid fever has caused trouble on several lake vessels the past season, and this has resulted in the issuance of an order at Washington directing the surgeons in charge of marine hospitals at lake ports to make rigid examination of all vessels where typhoid has been reported. Water tanks are the most likely sources of typhoid germs if they are not closely watched, and these will receive particular attention at the hands of the examining surgeons. Cholera Spreading. The cholera which has been spreading the whole past summer from Samara has now broken out violently in Kieff. There were 180 cases Wednesday, and Thursday there were 30 deaths. The city was unprepared, there are insufficient quarters, and corpses are lying on the hospital floors. It is feared that the Infection is be'ng disseminated throughout the south, west. An Auto Record. A report Issued by the Safe Roads Automobile association shows that between Juno 21 and September 21 of this year 41 persons were killed and \\\\\ injured as the result of automobile accidents In the state of Massachusetts, as far as they were recorded by the association. This covered 211 collisions, an average of 2½ dally. THE MARKETS.

From 25 to 30 persons dead and dying, 100 Injured and every house l a Fontanet destroyed, rendering 700 real. dents homeless, is the result of the explosion of the mills of the Dupont Powder Co., near Ptontanet, at 9:15 o'clock Tuesday. The mills burned and t h e bodies of the killed cannot be recovered. Every building In the town and within a radius of half a mile, including the school hou e, is wrecked. The Big Four railroad ran a special train to the scene of the accident with physicians and the injured were brought to the hospitals in Brazil. Supt. Monahan, of the powder mills, is missing and 18 supposed to be in the debris. Panic prevailed among the residents of the surrounding country. There were three explosions shortly after 9 o'clock and a fourth one at 10 o'clock. In which a number of t h e physicians were slightly Injured, among them Drs. Willien and Moore, of Brazil. The shock from the explosion was felt In Indianapolis. At Crawfordsvllle, 35 miles from Fontanet, the shock cracked a brick wall and sank tiling in a floor one Inch. At Brazil, Ind., 15 miles from Fontanet, nearly all the windows in town were shattered and many buildings damaged. The full force of men, 100, was employed at the powder mill, which was working to its capacity to/sajxply- orders. A slight shock s i m i l a r to t h a t of an earthquake, was noticed in Cincinnati. Prof. Porter, of the University of Cincinnati, reported it as very slight, but distinctly noticeable. In southern Indiana several points reported a shock in a more severe form and it was also reported from Hamilton, O. Burned and mangled in every conceivable way, writhing and distorted, the rescued heap of dead and dying presented a ghastly sight and the screams of agony were nerve-racking. Supt. Monahan, of the plant, was sitting in his office at the time of the explosion. He was instantly killed. His body was not found. His home, not far from the mills, was blown to pieces. It is believed hia wife and two Bisters perished, as nothing has been heard from them. State Supt. Nash, of the Dupont Powder Co., who was seriously injured about the head and hips, at a hospital said: "Supt. Monahan, myself and T. T. Kellup, representative of tho Eastern Co., of Wilmington, Del., were in the business office. Monahan and I were looking over the morning's mail, Mr. Kellup was reading a newspaper. That is the last I remember until I was picked up on the hill 100 yards away." Preparing for War. Cen. Linevitch, commander-in-chief of the Russian Siberian army, has reported to the general staff in St. Petersburg as follows: "The J a p a n e s e government Is erecting hastily In Manchuria and Korea fortifications and sending enormous quantities of ammunition to the place.

(Coprrisbt xgo6. by Lothrop, Lee & Shopard Co.) CHAPTER I. Chip was very tired. All that long June day, since Tim's harsh, "Come, out wid ye," bad roused her to daily toil, until now, wearied and disconsolate, she had crept, barefoot, up the back stairs to her room, not one moment's rest or one kindly word had been hers. Below, in the one living room of Tim's Place, the men were grouped playing cards, and the medley of their oaths, their laughter, the thump of knuckles on t h e hare table, and the pungent odor of pipes, reached her through the floor cracks. Outside the fireflies twinkled above the slow-running river and along the stump-dotted hillside. Close by, a few pigs dozed contentedly in their rudely constructed sty. A servant to those scarce fit for servants, a menial at the beck and call of all Tim's Place, and laboring with the men in the fields, Chip, a girl of almost 16, felt her soul revolt at the filth, the brutality, the coarse existence of those whose slave she was. And what a group 4hey were! First, Tim Connor, ttie owner and master of this oasis in the wilderness, 60 miles from the nearest settlement; his brother, Mike, as coarse; their wives and a half a dozen children who played with the pigs, squealed as often for food, and were left to grow up the same way; and Pierre Lubec, the hired man, completed the score. There was another transient resident here, an old Indian named Tomah, who came with the snow, and deserted his hut below on the river bank when spring unlocked that stream. Two occasional visitors also came here, both even more objectionable to Chip than Tim and his family. One was her father, known to her to be an outlaw and escaped murderer in hiding; the other a half-breed named Holduc,"but known as One-Eyed Pete, a trapper and hunter whose abode was a log ca&in on the Fox Hole, ten miles away. His face was horribly scarred by •! wildcat's claws; one eye-socket was empty; his lips, chin, and protruding teeth were always tobacco stained. For three months now, he had made weekly calls at Tim's Place, in pursuit of Chip. His wooing, as .might be expected, had been a persistent leering at her with his one sinister eye, oftrepeated innuendoes and Insinuations of lascivious nature, scarce understood by her, with now and then attempted familiarity. These advances had met with much tlv same reception once accorded him by the wildcat. Both these visitors were now with the group below. That, fact was of no interest to Chip, except in connection with a more pertinent, one—a Ions conference she had observed between them that day. What it was about, she could not. guess, and yet some queer intuition told her that it concerned her. Ordinarily, she would have sought sleep in her box-on-legs bed; now she crouched on the floor, listening. For an hour the game and its medley of sounds continued; then cessation, the tramp of heavily, shod feet, the light extinguished, and finally— silence. A few minutes of this, and then the sound of whispered converse, low yet distinct; reached Chip from outside. Cautiously she c r e s t to. her window. "I gif you one hunerd dollars now, for se g s ^ ' Pete was saying, "an' one hunerd more when you fotch her." "It's tbrse hundred down, I've told ye, or we don't do business," was her father's answer, In almost a hiss. A pain like a knife piercing her sv&art came to Chip. "Rut s'pose she run away?" came in Pete's voice. "What, 60 miles- to a settlement? Y D * must be a damn fool!" **An' if she no mind mo?" •:^S<vVal, thrash her then; she's yours." ^ J^tJut I no gif so much," parleyed P e t e ; "1 gif you one-feefty now, an' one hufi'erd ^ h e n she come." "You'll give what I say, end be quick About it, or I'll take her out tomorrow, and you'll never se* tor again; to fork over." "And you fotch M r to-morrow r* " X ^ X ^ d . * < M C u And s o tk*~fts*> gain was socclnde*}.. Only a moment more, while Chip sat nmab and daaao. then came the sound of footstep** a s the two men separated, and then silence over Tim's Place. And yet,»wh*t a horror for Chip! Sold like a horse or a pig to this worse than disgusting half-breed, and on the morrow to be taken—no, dragged—to the half-breed's but by her hated fa ther. Hardly conscious of the real intent and object of this purchase, she. yet understood it dimly. Life here was bad enough—it was coarse, unloved, even filthy, and yet, hard as it was, It was a thousand times better than slavery with such a n owner. And now, still weak and trembling from the Bhock, she raised her head cautiously and peeped out of the window. A faint spectral light, from the rising moon outlined the log barn, the two log cabins, and pigsty, which, with the frame house she was in, comprised Tim's Place. Above and beyond where the forest enclosed the hillside, it shone brighter, and as Chip looked out upon the etheral BilYered view, away to the right she saw the dark opening into t h e old tote road. Up this *hey had brought her, eight years before. Never smce had Bhe traversed it; and yet, as she looked at it now, an inspiration born of h e r father's Bueer came to her. It was a desperate chance, a foolhardy step—a journey so appalling, so almost hopeless, s h e might well hesitate; and yet, escape t h a t way was her one chance. Only a moment longer she waited, then gathering her few belongings— a pair of old Bhoes, the moccasins Old Tomah bad given her, a skirt and jacket fashioned from Tim'B cast-off garments, a fur cap, and soft felt hat—she thrust them into a soiled pillow-case and crept down the stairs. Once out, Bhe looked about, listened, then darted up t h e hillside, straight for the tote road entrance. Here she paused, put on h e r moccasins, and looked back. The moon, now above the tree-tops, shone full upon Tim's Place, softening and silvering all its ugliness and all its squalor. Away to the left stood '".jr The Ever Present Menace of a derness Assailed Her. Wil Tomah's hut. across the river, a shining path bright and rippled. In spite of the awful dread of her situation and the years of her hard, unpaid, and oft.times cursed toil, a pang of regret, now came to her. This was her home, wretched as it. was. Here she had at least been fed and warmed in winters, and here Old Tomah had shown hor kindness. Oh, if he were only in his hut now, that she might go and waken him softly, and beg him to take h e r in his canoe and speed down the river! But no! only her own desperate courage would now avail, and realizing that this look upon Tim's Place was the last, one, she turned and fled down the path. Sixty miles of stony, bushencumbered, brier-grown, seldom-traveled road lay ahead of her! Sixty miles through the somber silence and persistent menace of a wilderness, peopled only by death-intending creatures, yellow-eyed and sharp-fanged! With only "a sickening, soul-nauseating fate awaiting her a t Tim's Place, and her sole escape this almost insane flight, she sped on. The faint, spectral rifts of moonlight through interlaced fir and spruce as often deceived as aided her; bending boughs whipped her, bushes and logs tripped her, -sharp stones and pointed sticks bit her; she hurried over hillocks, wallowed through sloughs and dashed into tangles of briers, heedless of all except her one mad impulse to escape. Soon the ever present menace of a wilderness assailed her,—the yowl of a wildcat close at hand; in a swamp, (lie sharp bark of a wolf; on a hillside above her, the hoot of an owl; and when after two hours of this desperate flight had exhausted her and she was forced to halt, strange creeplas, crawling things seemed all about. ¥ And now the erratic, fantastic beliejrj JBJISBV* low table of boards. Upon the of Old Tomah returned to her. With him the forest was people by a weird; uncanny caos. sometimes visible and sometimes noW'spites," ho called them, and they were the souls of <both man ana beast; sometimes good, smne- Um.es otll, aolgrding as they had been in life, and all good or ill luck was doe to their ghostly Influences. They followed the hunter and trapper day and night, luring him into safety of danger, as they chose. They were everywhere, and in countless numbers, ready and sure to avenge, all wrongs and se ward all virtues. They had a Chieftain also, a great white spectre who came forth from the north in winter, and swept across the wilderness, spreading death and terror. To Chip, educated only in the fantastic lore of Old Tomah, these terrors now became Insanity breeding. She could art t u r n . back—better death among the spites than slaving to tfee half-breed; and so, faint from awful fear, gasping from miles of running, she stumbled on. And now a little hope came, for the road bent down beside the river,, and its low voice seemed a word of cheer. Into its cool depths she could at least plunge and die, as a last resort. Soon an opening showed ahead, and a bridge appeared. Here, for the first time, on this vantage point, she halted. How thrice blessed those knotted logs now seemed! She hugged and patted them in abject gratitude. She crawled to the edge and looked over into the dark, gurgling water. Up above lay a faint ripple of silver. Here, also, she could see the moon almost at the zenith, and a few flickering stars. A trifle of courage and renewal of hope now came. Her face and hands were scratched and bleeding, clothing torn, feet and legs black with mud. But these things she neither noticed nor felt—only that blessed bridge of logs that gave her safety, and the moon that bade her hope. Then she began to count her chances. This landmark told her that five miles of her desperate journey had been covered and she was still alive. She began to calculate. How soon would her escape*be discovered, and who would pursue her? Only Pete, her purchaser, she felt sure, and there was a possible chance that he might return to his cabin before doing so. Or perhaps he might sleep late, and thus give her one or two hours more of time. And now cheered by this trifling hope and lessening sense of danger, her past life came back. Her childhood in a far-off settlement; the home always In a turmoil from the strange men and women ever coming and going; the drinking, swearing, singing, at all hours of the night, her constant fear of them and wonder who they were and why they came. There were other features of this disturbed life: frequent quarrels between her father and mother; curses, tears, and sometimes blows, until at last after a night more hideous than any other her mother had taken her and fled. Then came a long journey to another village and a new life of peace and quietness. Here it was all so different—no redshirted men to be afraid of, no loudvoiced women drinking with them. She became acquainted with other children of her own age, was sent to school and taken to church. Here, also, her mother began to smile once more, and look content. For two years, and the only ones Chip cared to recall, she had been a happy schoolgirl, and then came a sudden, tragic end to it. all. Of that she never wished to think. It was all so horrible, and yet so mercifully brief. The one friend life held, her mother, had been brought home, wounded to death amid the whirring wheels of the mill where she worked; there were a few hours of agonized dread as her life ebbed away, a whisper or two of love and longing, and then the sad farewell made doubly awful by her father's frowning face and harsh voice. At its ending, and in spite of her fears and tears, she was now borne away by him. For days they journeyed deeper and deeper into a vast wilderness, to halt at. last at Tim's Place. Like a dread dream it all came back now. as she lay there on this one flat spot, of security—the bridge;—and listened to the river's low murmur. All through her mad flight the wilderness had been ghostly and spectral in the moonlight; now it had become lost in inky blackness, yet alive with demoniac voices. All the goblin forms ! and hideous shapes of Old Tomah's ! fancy were rushing and leaping about, j Now high up in the treetops. now deep ! in the hollows, they screamed and I shrieked and moaned. J An;1 now. just as this fierce battle of | sound and spectral shape was at its ! worst, and Chip, a hopeless, helpless i mite of humanity, crouched low upon j the bridge, suddenly a vicious growl \ reached her, and raising her head she I saw at the bridge's end two gleaming eyes! of a broad, slow-running stream, two canoes were drawn out, and halfway between these and the table a camp-fire burnt Here Levi, sfartlh's:<*oide for many trips into this wilderness, was also cor copied, Intently watehfeftg two palls depending from bending wambecks, a coffee-pot hanging from another, and imp frying-pans, whose sputtering contents gave forth an enticing odor. Twilight was just falling, the river murmured in low melody, and a few rods above a small rill entered it, adding a more musical tinkle. "toon Levi deftly swung one of the pails away from the flame with a hookstick and speared a potato with a fork. "Supper ready," he called; and then as the rest seated themselves at the table, he advanced, carrying the pall of steaming hot potatoes on the hooked stick and the frying-pan in his other hand. T h e meal had scarce begun when a crackling in the undergrowth back of the tent was heard, and on the Instant there emerged a girl. Her clothing was In shreds, her face and hands were black with mud, streaks of blood showed across cheek and chin, and her eyes were fierce and sunken. "For God's sake give me suthln" to eat," she said, looking from one to another of the astonished group. "I'm damn near starved—only a bite," she added, sinking to her knees and extending her hands. "I hain't eat nothin' but roots V berries for three days." 'Angle was the first to recover. "Here," she said, hastily extending her plate, "take this." Without a word the Btarved creature grasped It and began eating as only a desperate, hungry animal would, while the group watched her. "Don't hurry so," exclaimed Martin, whose wits had now returned. "Here, take this cup of coffee." Soon the food vanished and then the girl arose. "Sit down again, my poor child," entreated Angie, who had observed the strange scene with moist eyes, "and tell us who you are and where you came from." "My name's Chip," answered the girl, bluntly, "an" I'm runnln' away from Tim's Place, 'cause dad sold me to Pete Bolduc." "Sold—you—to—Pete—Bolduc," exclaimed Angie, looking at her wideeyed. "What do you m e a n ? " "He did, sartin," answered the girl, laconically. "I heerd 'em makin' the bargain, 'n' I fetched 4 three hundred dollars." Martin and his wife exchanged glances. "Well, and then what?" continued Angie. "Wal, then I waited a spell, till they'd turned in," explained the girl, "and then I lit out. I knowed 'twas GO miles to the settlement, but 'twas moonlight 'n' I chanced it. I've had an awful time, though, the spites hev chased me all the way. I was jist makin' a nestle when I seed yer light, an' 1 crept through the brush 'n' peeked. I seen ye wa'n't nobody from Tim's Place, 'n' then I cum out. I guess you've saved my life. I was gittin' dizzy." It was a brief, blunt story whose directness bespoke truth; but it revealed such a pigsty state of morality at this Tim's Place that the* little group of astonished listeners could scarce finish supper or cease watching this muchsoiled girl. "And so your name is Chip," queried Angie at last. "Chip what?" "Chip McGuire," answered the waif, quickly; "only my real name ain't Chip, it's Vera; but. they've alius called me Chip at Tim's Place." "And your father sold you to this man?" "He did, 'n' he's a damn bad man." replied Chip, readily. "He killed some body once, an' he don't, show up often. I hate him!" "You mustn't use swear words," returned Angie; "it's not nice." The girl looked abashed. "I guess [ you'd cuss if you'd been sold to such a nasty-looking man as Pete," she responded, "He chaws terbaecer 'n' lets it drizzle on his chin, 'n' he hain't but one eye."

Their altitude varies between 14,000 and 17.000 feet. They were worked by the Spaniards in the sixteenth century, ;ir.d before that, it is believed, by the Incas. An English company is now preparing a hydro-electric plant for them. This plan? will be situated at an altitude of between 15.000 and 16,- 000 feet. It will derive its power from a waterfall on the Santiago river, and in a dry season from Lake Huaillacho. one of the sources of the Amazon. The power will be transmitted by cable about threo miles. At the highest mines the pressure of the atmosphere is only eight and one-half pounds a square inch, and water boils 24 degrees below the ordinary boiling point. —Youth's Companion.

Consul General O. sV dal writes from Beirut as fata", corning this fooa: > •' "Arabs aad Moors eat them. In the south of £T -ope carobs are employed as food for horses, cattle and swine. In Cyprus, next to barley, they constitute the principal article for export. The tstaj yield of the island of carobs or locust beans (not to be confounded with St. John's bread), in 1906, amounted to 69,000 tons. In August the carob tree Is seen bearing both flowers and ripe fruit. The latter is a pod, brown and leathery, four to eight inches long, a little curved, and containing a fleshy and at last mealy pulp, of an agreeable sweet taste, in which lie a. number of shining brown seeds; these are bitter and of no use. "On account of the abundant sugar contained In carobs, the latter form a nutritious and fattening food for horses and cattle. England, for the feeding of cattle, Imports large quantities of carobs, in the form of flour (t^at they may be more digestible) from Spain, Italy, Crete, Samoa and Cyprus. Most of the Cyprus carobs however, are exported in bulk, and the grinding is done in England. A considerable quantity of this 'cattle food' is exported from Great Britain to the United States. If proper steam ing facilities existed between the United States and Levant, carobs would probably be carried direct to the United States to be prepared there into cattle food. Carobs are also used In considerable quantities especially In France, for distillation, and t h e spirits obtained are deemed choice. Carobs are also employed for the production of a semi-liquid substance, resembling molasses, largely used in the.manufacture of oriental sweets. The carob tree, which is quite distinct from the locust tree of America, seems to prefer the mild climate oJ the southern sea coasts and islands of the Mediterranean. It is, however found in the Lebanon, for Instance and its introduction into the north 01 India has been recommended on th« supposition that it would prove ar important addition to the resources 01 the country and a valuable safeguarc against famine. The produce is ex ceeding abundant, some trees yield ing as much as 900 pounds of pods The wood is hard and much valued and the bark and leaves are used foi tanning. The carob tree propagate! freely.

Edison, the great American inventor, savs "Fully eighty per cent of the illness of mankind comes from eating improper food or to much food; people are inclined to over-indulge themselves." This is where indigestion finds its beginning in nearly every case. Th* stomach can do just so much work and no more, and when you overload it, or when you eat the wrong kind of food, the indigestive organs cannot possibly do the work demanded of them. It ia at such times that the stomach needs help, it demands help, and warns you by headaches, belching, sour stomach, nausea and indigestion. Yon should attend to this at once by taking something that, will actually do the work for the stomach. Kodol will do this. It is a combination of natural digestants and vegetable acids and contains the same juices tound in a healthy stomach. It is plea.-ant to take. It digests what you eat. Sold by F. A.

Catarrh, even in persons who are otherwise strong, is a weakened condition of some mucous membrane. There must be something to strengthan the circulation, to give tone to the arteries, and to raise tho vital forces, Perhaps no vegetable remedy in the world has attracted so much attention from medical writers as HYDRASTIS CANADENSIS. The wonderful efficacy of this herb has been recognized many years, and is growing in its hold npon the medical profession. When joined with CUBEBS and COPAIBA a trio of medical agents is formed in Pe- Tuna which constitutes a specific remedy for catarrh that in the present state of medical progress cannot be improved upon. This action, reinforced by such renowned tonics aa C0IUH80HIA CANADENSIS, COBYDALIS FOHMOSA and CEDBOS SEED, ought to make this compound aa Ideal remedy for catarrh in all its stages and locations in the body. From a theoretical standpoint, therefore, Peruna is beyond criticism. The use of Peruna, confirms this opinion, Vumberlesi testimonials from every jquarter of the earth famish ample evidence that this judgment is not over enthusiastic. When practical experience confinni a well-grounded theory the result is a truth that cannot be shaken. The Sinful Human Heart. A clergyman was addressing a youthful class l a Sunday sohool.

MICHIGAN BRIEFS; P. M. BRAKE MAN'S NEGLECT WRECKS PASSENGER TRAIN '" AT PALMS; SIX INJURED. COLLIDE ON OPEN SWITCH One Crematod and Four Injur** in •pecUoular $75,000 Sawmill Blaze at Bay City. With a crash that fairly rattled this village to its foundation*, northbound passenger train on the Port Austin branch of the Pere Marquette struck an open switch in the yards and telescoped an extra freight on the siding. Six persons were injured; two critically. Palms, with a population of 100, is a junction of the Harbor Beach and Port Austin branches of t h e P. M., about 70 miles from Bay City. Railroad officials who v l r t e d the scene of t h e accident unhesitatingly lay the blame to carelessness of t h e rear brakemau of the freight in not closing and locking the switch. It is said there were nu switch lights burning. The escape of Fireman Highborn, of t h e freight's engine, w a s t h e feature of the collision. Highborn was perched on the pilot of his engine attending to his headlight when t h e smash came. He had but an instant's warning, but instead of jumping he dived for t h e smokestack and then dropped to one side without a scratch. Had he remained on the pilot he doubtless would have been seriously injured if not killed. Four of the injured will be taken to their homes. $75,000 Sawmill Blaze at Bay City. William Lapham was burned to death and four others injured in t h e destruction of the Kern Manufacturing Co.'s sawmill plant which was burned to t h e ground at Bay City, entailing a loss of $75,000. The mill consisted of a double band saw and resaw, a lath mill and shingle mill, and was one of t h e most complete plants on the river. The fine sawdust powder, accumulated through years of sawing, acted almost as an explosive and the 100 men at work in the mill escaped through windows and over tramways, leaving their coats, hats and tools behind them. So blinding was t h e smoke from the puffs of burning dust that many of the men were forced to crawl out on their hands and knees. William Barber, a flier, had his hands and face literally cooked, as he leaped through a window out of which the flames were already coming. Ronald McDonald, a sawyer, was burned about the head, neck and hands, and Richard Tucker, a filer, was injured slightly by jumping through a window. Kugene Kellogg, a Hreman, was overcome by heat, but Is recovering. P. M. R. R. GetB on Feet. Plans for taking ihe Pere Marquette /ailroad out of the hands of a receiver and allowing it to reorganize received the sanction of .Judge Horace Lurton, of the United States court. All accounts with the road shall be submitted to Judson Harmon and William W. Crapo as arbitrators, who have plenary power:;. If the arbitrators differ they are to name some third party. Cancellation of t h e lease of the Pere Marquette is made one of the duties of the arbitrators, and the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton railroad is to turn over to the reorganiz-, ing committee of the Pere Marquette the stock which it holds in that road, 'Phone to Every Six Persons. In proportion to its size, Marquette has more telephones in use than any other city in the state. One company lias 1,400 instruments installed in residences and business places, and ann h e r has 400. This is a total of 1,- Siiio.

The Michigan Baptists concluded' their four days' session at Traverse City with t h e passing of resolutions condemning lax divorce laws and forbidding Baptist clergymen to marry divorced people unless the divorce were secured for reasons they think Christ, would accept. Child labor was corniemned and more, efficiency in the public schools urged. The work of the anti-Saloon league was sanctioned.

Traced a Body tc a River, Says a JLcndon Report. 4ta e ^ a o r d i a ^ tAse df clairvoyance t>y ft child hair daused considerable interest here, telegraphs our Christina* la correspondent. About a fortnight ago a man living in the Oewterdal valley disappeared suddenly' from his home, and all search proved rain. The child, John Floettum, 14 years of age, was sent for eight days after the man's disappearance. The boy walked around the house where the man had lived and got a photograph of him, which he carefully examined. Sitting at a table, with his left band covering his eyes, be drew some lines on a slip of paper, the lines indicating where the man had walked. The perspiration poured down the boy'B face, and he often stopped. When at last he "saw" a place where the man had sat down under a big tree, he was exhausted and had to give up for the day. People were sent out to search, with the boy's sketch as their guide. The whole population of the district followed, and excitement was high as the crowd followed the course the man had taken, step by step, as Indicated by the boy. Night came on before they reached the tree, and the search was adjourned till next day, when the boy himself led the party. He took them to the tree, and there found the lost man's handkerchief. From the tree the boy went straight to a river, but again he became so exhausted that he had to give up. However, as soon as he came home he said he could plainly "see" where the man was. Early next morning the search party, with the boy, took a boat, which was steered according to the boy's directions. After a while he suddenly rose and said, "Here he lies." A search was made and the body was found at the bottom of the river on the very spot the boy had pointed out The boy only three months ago dis covered that he possessed this ex traordinary sense of clairvoyance. During this time he has given many proofs of his strange power. A man went to him and told him that he had lost a gold ring in a field last autumn as he was loading hay on a cart, and the boy soon told the man that the ring could be found among the hay on his farm, pointing out the very place, where the ring was immediately found. The boy has achieved other feuts equally remarkable. Old Turkish Joke. Among the many anecdotes related of the old Turkish Joker, Nasir-Eddfn Khodja, is the following: Khodja went one evening to the well to draw water, and looking down to the bottom he saw the moon. Quickly he ran Into the house and got a rope with a hook attached to the end of It. This he lowered into the well. The hook caught fast on a stone, Khodja pulled desperately, the hook gave way and there was the joker Hat on his back staring up into the sky. "Upon my soul," he exclaimed, perceiving the moon, "I have had a bad fall, but I have put the moon back ID Its place." Torpedo Boats of the World. An English government report shows that France now has 39 submarine torpedo boats in service and 60 under construction. England ranks next, with 26 built and 15 under way.

A New York clergyman, who often spends his vacation in fishing the streams of the Adirondacks, was on one trip adopted by a handsome setter dog, which insisted on following him from camp to camp, as he moved along the stream. One day he met a party of men working upstream with a native guide. The guide immediately recognized the dog as his own property. "Trying to steal my setter, are you?" he shouted at the clergyman. "I'll have you to jail for this! There's a law in the woods just as big as you have in the city." The clergyman endeavored to explain that he was an unwilling companion of the dog, which had refused to be driven away, but to little effect until he added a two-dollar bill to his arguments. "It's queer what strange things happen to a man up here," ho said to the stage-driver who later carried him away from the woods. "That is the first time I was ever accused of stealing a dog." "Yes, sir," replied the driver, sympathetically, and added, after a moment's pause, "For myself, sir, I have never been accused of stealing anything."— Youth's Companion. Saw It Come Out of a Cow. A little city boy and his sister. Dorothy were taken to the country for the^flrst time. The two children were happy as the day was long. In the late afternoon they watched the cows come home, heard with delight the tinkling cowbells, and the little boy even went to the barns to see the milking done. At supper, just as Dorothy was lifting her glass to her rosy lips, the boy cried out: "Oh, Dotty, don't! You musn't drink that milk. It's not fit tox drink. It came out of a cow; I saw it."

The Great Musician Med *<» U « * for His Production. A great tenor had been singing for some hours into a phonograph. "The phonograph," he said, "is a wonderful thing. It almost realizes the wish of the Scottish poet, the wish that we might see ourselves as others see us. We can now, at least, hear ourselves, a thing impossible before. The phonograph teaches us many valuable lessons. When I was in the army, before I realised the capabilities of my voice, I played the flute. A phonograph salesman brought a phonograph to my quarters and tried to sell it to me on the instalment plan. I was undecided. Finally the man took out a blank cylinder. " 'See,' he said, rather reluctantly, 'here is a blank cylinder. You may make a record on It, then we will run it off and you shall hear yourself. It's a costly favor I am doing you, but it will show you what a fine instrument this is.' "I was delighted. " Til get my Bute/ I said. Til play a flute solo.' "Well, I played my best into the machine. It seemed to me that I had never combined before such feeling with such accuracy. I was more than pleasef with myself. Then the man put in the cylinder, and the music began to issue forth. I frowned. " 'Is that me?' I said. " 'Yes, sir,' said the man. " 'Really me, just as I played?' " 'Precisely, sir, precisely. And now,' said he, "do you want to buy the phonograph ?' "'No,' said I; 'I want to sell the flute.'" S K I N SORE E I G H T Y E A R S . 9 oo DROP ITTIIIIIIIiliflHHi ALCOHOL 3 PKB CENT.

The salesman was patient and showed her everything in stock, but nothing suited. "Oh, dear!" she exclaimed, fussily, "haven't you anything different?" The clerk brought out one of the discarded tablecloths that he had put hack on the shelf, and said with an air of interest: "Here is one of the very newest deigns, madam.

It ib as If tke neighbors of two law-abiding cltiaens were coutlnu ally bickering and carrying their quarrels over the fence Into the grounds of the peaceful. It is ths duty of the orderly, not only for their own protection, but in the interest of decency, to persuade the disorderly to behave themselves. The presidents of the United States and of Mexico acted aa benevolent International neighbors when they tendered the good offices of their governments to the quarreling republics in Central America to assist In arranging a plan for arbitrating all disputes which cannot be settled by the republics themselves. Government is in an unsettled condition in Central America. Although nominally democratic in form, in fact it is almost a military despotism. That aspiring leader wins the election who can command the largest number of soldiers, and the people have little conception of the nature of what we in America know as representative Institutions. There is little more respect for the rights of the neighboring countries than for the rights of the opposition party; consequently petty wars are of frequent occurrence. This survival of a sort of petty feudalism, a group of little warring countries, squabbling over matters that other people* to-day Mttle peaceably, cannot b» tolerated. It Is necessary, how- **«r 9lD*rlBL,T«itV8 Companion, ii/i the United State* to assume that these little countries mean to keep the peace save on the gravest provocation. Yet Its joint action with Mexico amounts to little less than a warning that If they do not behave in an orderly manner voluntarily, they will be forced to submit to the power of the stronger nations. LATEST NEWS OF MICHIGAN In competition last month in rifle marksmanship at Ottawa, Americans won the Palm trophy, Canadians came second, Australians third, and British last. The Americans' score is ten points better than any score ever made with any kind of rifle, and in this contest the rifles used were not specially designed for target shooting, but were the types furnished to the armies for actual service. It is significant that the lowest score In this contest is better than the winning score in the last previous contest. That is, the whole standard of skill has been raised. No wonder that good sportsmen like King Edward and President Roosevelt were delighted at the result. T H E FATAL AUTOMOBILE RIDE OF PETER RALSTON W I T H FRED. B. P I A T T . HOW WAS HE KILLED? Piatt, Who Drove the Machlno With Ralkton on Its Zig-zag Course, Soems to Be Hazy Abgut It. Coroner Investigating. One portion of the mystery surrounding the death of Peter A. Ral yton, of Lansing, who was found lying in the gutter on Washtenaw street oast, having been killed in an automo bile accident, early Friday morning, has been cleared up. That is. the name of the party with whom Ralston was riling at the time. He in Fred. B. Piatt, a local capitalist. Piatt, however, declares he remembers nothing of the tragedy, and did uot kaow Ralston had bean killed until told so Friday morning. He told the police he had only a vague recol lection of having seen Ralston the night of the accident, and of having had trouble with his automobile. A coroner's jury has been impaneled, and a thorough investigation is being made. It has been learned through attaches of the Downey house that Piatt and Ralston were there until 12:30, when they entered Piatt's car and drove off. Apparently Piatt's automobile became unmanageable at the start, as its course Is traceable by zig-zag tracks over lawns, curbs and sidewalks on various streets. The first clue the police had that Piatt was in the affair was when his hat, bearing the initials, F. B. P., was picked up near where the dead man lay. Then his machine was found to be jammed up, presumably where it had collided with a telephone pole at the point where the fatality occurred. Ralston came to Lansing from Bay City, where a son, Philip, is a pharmacist. MICHIGAN BRIEFS, The recently completed census of Oklahoma shows a population of 1,- 408,732. In 1900 the two territories which made up the new state had a* total population of only 790,391. Only 22 states had, in 1900, a larger population than Oklahoma has now. The next reapportionment will probably increase the representation of Oklahoma in congress; for while the enabling act gives the state Ave representatives, the population, on the present basis of apportionment, would allow seven. The whole of New England could be set down within the limits of the new state and leave a fringe of territory amounting to nearly 4,000 square miles. Majority Rule. The committee on rules of the constitutional convention have completed their work. A majority of the members- elect will rule in the proceedings A majority can take away from a committee or refer back to a committee. To suspend the rules, however, a twothirds majority is required, as in most parliamentary bodies. The rules in general follow the house rules, though they are much briefer, not having relation to the senate or to the official character of state officers. Delegates will introduce their • lggestiona in the form of "proposals," and these will go to committee, to committee of the whole or to third reading, .AS "bills" in the house. There will also be room on the order of business for motions and resolutions and communications from state officers and departments. The prevailing sentiment in the convention Just now seems to be for a session ending at Christmas.

The matter will then be taken to the supreme court on a mandamus and it will be argued that the city's law was wiped out by mistake and should therefore remain in effect by inference.

His lordship reviewed the duties and rights of "carriers," as laid down by the railway act, in the shipment of explosives, and added t h a t t h e grand Jury by Its action apparently exonerated the employes, or at least those who had charge of the explosive In Ontario. "In my view it is not too much t o require of a railway company If M persists In carrying explosives to do so only in cars made for the express purpose in a train on jvhich no other freight or passengers are carried, and accompanied by a person who understands how to deal with such explosives," said Justice Rtddajl.

Chip McGuire, a 15-year-old girl living at Tim's place In the Maine woods, is sold by her father to Pete Bolduc, a half-breed. 8he runs away and reaches the camp of Martin Friable, occupied by Martin, his wife, nephew. Raymond Stetson, and fuldes. She tells her story and (s cared tor by Mrs. Fribble. C H A P T E R II.—Continued. Angle smiled, while Martin stared at the girl with increased astonishment. He knew who tbiB McGuire was, and something of his hiBtory, and that Tim's Place was a hillside clearing far up the river, inhabited by an Irish family devoted to the raising of potatoes. He had halted there once, long enough to observe its somewhat slothful condition, and to buy pork and potatoes; but this tale was a revelation, and tho girl herself a greater one. This oasis in the wilderness was fully 40 miles above here, its only connectioa+ with civilization was a seldomused log road which only an experienced woodsman could follow, and bow this mere child had dared it, was a marvel. But there she was, squat on the ground and watching them with big black, pleading eyes. There Was but one thing to do, to care for her now, as humanity insisted, and Angie made the first move. It was in the direction of cleanliness; for entering the tent, she Boon appeared with some of her own extra clothing, soap, and towels, and bade the girl follow her up the river a few rods. The moon was shining clearly above the treetops, the camp-fire burned brlgh.ly, and Martin, Ray and Levi were lounging near it when the two returned, and In one an astouishing transformation had taken place. Angle had gone away with a girl of tea in respect to clothing, her skirt evidently made of gunny cloth and reaching but little below her knees, and for a waist, what was once a m a n s red flannel shirt, and both iu rags. Soiled with black mud, and bleeding, she was an object pitiable beyond words; she returned a young lady, almost, in stature, her face shining and rosy, and her eyes so tender With gratitude that they were pathetic. Another change had also come with cleanliness and clothing—a sudden bashfulness. It was some time ere she could be made to talk again, but finally that wore away and then her story came. What a tale it was— ecarce credible. It was a fantastic, weird, almost spookish tale,—the spectres she had seen were so real to her that the telling made them seem almost so to the rest, and beyond that, the girl herself, so like a young witch, with her shadowy eyes and furtive glances, added to the illusion. Rut now came a diversion, for Levi freshened the fire, and at a nod from Angle, Ray brought forth his banjo. It was his one pet foible, and it went with him everywhere, and now, with time and place so in accord, he was glad to exhibit his talent. He was not an expert,—a few jigs and plantation melodies composed his repertory,—but with the moonlight glinting through the spruce boughs, the river murmuring near, somehow one could not fail to catch the quaint humor of "Old Uncle Ned," "Jim Crack Corn," and the like, and see the two dusky lovers as they floated down the "Tombigbee River" and feel the pathos of "Nellie Grey" and "Old Kentucky Home." Ray sang fairly well and in sympathy with each theme. To Angle and the rest it was but ordinary; but to this waif, who never before had hoard « s*aJo-«* a datfcytoftg. It was «»r- Ul a» wstb kas*4nm of But Angi* Insisted and the girl foK lowed her tat* the t e n t Here occurred another incident that must be related. Angle, always devout, and somewhat puritanical, was one who never forgot her nightly prayer, and now, when ready for slumber, she knelt on the bed of fir twigs, and by the light of one small candle offered her usual petition, while Chip watched her with wide and wondering ©yes. As might be expected, that waif was mentioned, and with deep feeling. "Do ye s'pose God heard ye?" she queried with evident candor, when Angle ceased. "Why, certainly," came the earnest answer; "God bears ail prayers." "And do the spites hear 'em?" "There are no such creatures as 'spites/" answered Angle, severely; "you only Imagine them, and what this Indian has told you Is superstition." "But I've seen 'em, hundreds on 'em, big and little," returned the girl, Btoutly. Angie looked at her with pity. "Put that notion out of your head, once for all" she .said, almost sternly. "'It is only a delusion, and no doubt told to' scare you." And poor Chip, conscious that per* haps she had sinned in speech, said no more. For a long time Angie lay sleepless upon her fragrant bed, recalling the waif's strange story and trying to grasp the depth and breadth of her life at Tlm'B Place; also to surmise, if possible, how serious a taint of evil Bhe had inherited. That her father was vile beyond compare seemed positive; that her mother might have been scarce better was probable. No mention, thus far, bad been made of her; and so Angie reflected upon this pitiful child's ancestry and what manner of heritage she had been blessed or "1 Never Had Nothln' Cussin'." But W o r k »n cursed with. Some of her attributes awoke Angle's admiration. She had shown utter abhorrence of this brutal sale of herself, a marvelous courage in endeavoring to escape it. She seemed grateful for what had been done for her, and a partial realization of her own unfitness for association with refined people. Her speech was 'no worse than might be expected from her life at Tim's Place. Doubtless, Bhe was unable to read or write. And so Angie lay, considering all the pros and cons of the situation and of this girl's life. There was also another side to it all, the humane one. They were on their way out of the wilderness, for a business visit to the nearest settlement, Intending to return to the woods in a few days—and what was to be done with this child of misfortune? Most assuredly they must protect her for the present. But was there anyone to whom she could be turned over and cared for? It seemed possible this brutal buyer of her would follow her out of the woods, to abduct her if found, and then the moral side of this episode with all its abominable possibilities occurred to Angie, who was, above all, unselfish and noblehearted. Vice, _-lme, and immorality were horrible toiler. Here was a self-evident duty thrusting itself upon her, and how to meet It with Justice to herself, her husband, and her own conscience, was a problem. Thus dwelling upon this complex situation, she fell asleep. The first faint light of morning was stealing into the tent when Angie felt her companion stir. She had, exhausted as she doubtless was, fallen asleep almost the moment she lay down; but now she was evidently awake-. Curious to note what she would do, Angie remained with closed eyes and motionless. Prom the corner of the teat where she had curled up the night beforerthe girt now cautiously crept toward the elder woman. Inch by teen, upon 4MB bed of boughs, she moved nearer, until Angle, watching WMfc aeifopeawi eyes, saw her head tosrared. mat Met two soft, warm lips It was no more than the act of a eat who rubs herself against her mtatres* or a dog who licks his master's hand, and yet it settled once for all that waifs fate *ad Aufiie's ixiuccjokifi. C H A P T E R i l l . Levi was starting a fire,.Ray washing poUioes, and Mai Uu, in bis shirtsleeves, using a towel vigorously near the canoes, when Angle and Chip emerged that morning; and now while breakfast is under way, a moment may be seised to explain who the people were and their mission In this wilderness. Many years before, in a distant village called Greenvale, two brothers, David and Amzl Curtis, had quarreled over an unfortunate division of inherited land. The outcome was that Amzi, somewhat misanthropic over the death of his wife, and of peculiar makeup, deserted his home and little daughter Angellne, and vanished. For many years no one knew of his whereabouts, and he was given up as dead. In the. meantime his child, cared for by a kindly woman known as Aunt Comfort, had grown to womanhood. About this time a boyhood sweetheart of Angeline's, named Martin Frlsbie, who had been gathering wealth in a distant city, invited a former schoolmate, now the village doctor in Greenvale, to join him on an outing trip into the wilderness. Here something of the history of a notorious outlaw named McGuire became known to Martin, and more important than that, a queer old hermit was discovered, dwelling in solitude tm the shore of a small lake. Who he was, and why this strange manner of life, Martin could not learn, and not until later, when he returned to Greenvale to woo his former sweetheart once more, did he even guess. Here, however, from a description furnished by a village nonedscrlpt,—a sort of Natty Bumpo and philosopher combined, known as Old Cy Walker, who had been Martin's youthful companion, —he was led to believe that the queer hermit and the long-missing Amzi were one and the same. Another trip into this wilderness with Old Cy, taken to identify the hermit, resulted in proving the correctness of the surmise. Then Martin set about making thi3 misanthropic recluse more comfortable in all ways possible; and then, leaving Old Cy to keep him company, he returned to Greenvale and Angie. A marriage was the outcome of his return to his native village, and then, with his nephew, Ray, and long-tried guide, Levi, as helpers on this unique wedding trip, the hermit was visited. It was hoped that meeting his child once more would result in inducing him to abandon his wildwood existence and to return to civilization; and it did—partially. He seemed happy to meet his daughter again, consented to return with them when ready, and after a couple of weeks' sojourn here, the canoes were packed and all set out for civilisation and Greenvale once more. But "home, sweet home," albeit it was, as in this case, a lonely log cabin in a vast wilderness, proved stronger than parental love or aught else; and sometime during first night's camp on the way out, this strange recluse stole away in his canoe and returned. "It's natur," Old Cy observed when morning came, "an' heme is the hardest spot in the world to ferglt. Amzi's lived in that old shack all 'lone for 20 years. He's got wonted to it like a dog to his kennel, an' all the powers o' the univarse can't break up the feelin'." It seemed an indisputable, if disappointing, fact, and Martin led his party back to the hermit's home once more. Another plan was now considered by Martin—to buy the township, or at least a large tract enclosing this lake, build a more commodious log cabin for the use of himself and his wife, and spend a portion of each summer there. There were several reasons other than those of affection for this decision. This lake, perhaps half a mile in diameter, teemed with trout. The low mountains enclosing it were thickly covered with fine spruce and fir, gTOves of pine with some beech and birch grew in the valleys; deer, moose and feathered game abounded here, and best of all, no vandal lumbermen ever encroached upon this region. It was, all considered, a veritable sportsman's paradise. Most likely a few thousand dollars would purchase it, and so, for these collective reasons, Martin decided to buy it. Old Cy was left to keep the hermit company; Martin, his wife, and Ray, with Levi, started for civilization to obtain needed supplies, and had been four days upon the way when this much-abused waif appeared on the scene. The party were journeying in two canoes, one manned by Ray, who had already learned to wield a paddle, which carried the tents and luggage; while the other was occupied by Martin, his wife, and Levi. The dnjy available seat for the new arrival was in Ray's canoe, jmd.%ken"orenkfast w disposed o start, ah The and of journey^ Uement ,and no oaoae for worry'appeared— but Levi felfeetfcerwue, "You'd beat'ftttg the futher *ko*e> he observed to Ray Quietly when the; Ujy jtiisfcqd off, "an* don't git out u sight & w." "I ain't sartln 'bout the outcome o' this matter," he said to Martin later. "I know that half-breed, Bolduc, and he's a bad 'un. From the gal's story he paid big money fer her. He don't know the meanln' o' law, and if he toilers down the tote road, as I callate be will, '&' ketches sight o' her, the first we'll know on't '11 be the crack o' a rifle. The wonder to me li he didn't ketch her 'fore she got to us He could track her faster'n she could run. I don't want to 'larm you folks, but I shan't feel easy till we're out o the woods." It wasn't reassuring. But no thought of this came to Ray. at least, and these two young people, yielding to the magic of the morning the rippled river that bore them on ward, the birds singing along the fir clad banks, and all the exhilaration ol the wilderness, soon reached the carefree converse of youthful friends. . "I never had nothin' but work "nr cusein'," Chip responded, when Hay asked if she never had any time ahe could call her own. "Tim thlnked 1 couldn't get tired, I guess. He'd roust me up fust of all 'n' larrup me' if he caught me shirkin'. Once I had a little posey bed back o' the pigpen. 1 fixed it after dark an' mornin's when I ketched the chance. He ketched me thar one mornin' a-weedin' it 'n* knocked me sprawlin' an' then stomped all over the posies. That night I went out into the woods 'n' begged the spites to git him killed somehow. 'Nother time I forgot to put up the bars, an' the cows got into the taters. That night he tied me to a stump cius to the bars, an' left me thar all night. I used to be more skeered o' my dad 'n I was o' Tim, tho'. He'd look at me like he hated me, an' say, 'Shut up,' if I said a word, an' I 'most believed he'd kill me, just fer nothin'. Once he said he'd take me out into .the woods at night 'n' bait a bear trap with me il he heerd I didn't mind Tim. I told Old Tomah that, an' he sid if he did, he'd shoot him; but Old Tomah wasn't round only winters. I hated dad so I'd 'a' shot him myself, I guess, if I cud 'a' got hold o' a gun when he wa'n't watchin'." "It's awful to have to feel that way toward your own father," interrupted Ray, "for he was your father." "I s'pose 'twas," admitted Chip, candidly, "but I never felt much different, I've seen him slap mother when Bhe was on her knees a-bawlin', and' the way he would cuss her was awful." "But you had some friendship from this old Indian," queried Ray, Who began to realize what a pitiful life the girl had led; "he was good to you( wasn't he?" "He waa, sartin," returned Chip, eagerly; "he used to tell me the spites 'ud fix dad 'fore long, so he'd never show up agin, 'n' when I got big 'nufj he'd sneak me off some night n' take, me to the settlement, whar I could arn a livin'. Old Tomah was the only one who cared a cuss fer me. I used to bawl when he went away every spring, an' beg him to take me 'long n' help him camp 'n' cook. I'd 'a' done 'most anything fer Old Tomah. I didn't mind wearin' clothes made out o' ol* duds 'n' bein' cussed fer not workln' hard 'nuff. What I did mind was not havin' nobody who cared whether I lived or died, or said a good word to me. Sometimes I got so lonesome, 1 used to go out in the woods nlghta when 'twas moonlight 'n' beg the spites to help me. I used to thlnU mother might be one on 'em 'n' she'd keer fer me. I think she was, an 'twas her as kept me goin' till I found you folks' camp. I got awful skeered them nights I was runnin' away, an' when 'twas so dark I couldn't see no more, an' heeri wildcats yowiin*. I'd pit on my knees 'n' beg mother to keep 'em away. I think she did, an' alius shall." (TO BE CONTINUED.) His High Estimation of Steam. Carlyle once startled the Englishspeaking people into recognition of the value of their great dramatist by suddenly asking the British public whieh it would rather lose, Shake speare or India? I thought of that the other day, muses the editor of the Ruder, when I was reading an article on steam navigation. What would the world rather lose than steam? What? Why, almost everything; our literature, our art, our religions. Nothing we have is so valuable as steam. It is the greatest civilizer the world has ever possessed. .**& Pen Economy.

Americans In Europe Seem to Have Gone Mad Over the Subject According to an Authority In London. Americans have gone tattoo mad. Such is the Inference to be drawn from a recent conversation with Alfred South, a famous English and continental tattoolst. According to the artist the rich have stolen the thunder of the poor. The practice of covering the body with elaborate designs, which was supposed to be the special weakness of the low-class sailor, has ascended the social ladder and is now the amusement of the aristocracy. Certain well-known Americans, if we are to relieve Mr. Smith, would present the appearance of animated picture galleries could we see.them In ihe nude. Their backs, cheBts, legs and arms are covered with crouching tigers, poised snakes and more or less beautiful women. The son of one ol the largest watch manufacturers is the United States, who is many times a millionaire, had a fac simile of his father's particular brand of timepiece tattooed on his chest by Mr. South. He had the hands showing the hour tc be exactly 12 and remarked that no matter where he was he could always refer to it at exactly that time of day and always correct his fallible timepiece. Many Americans have commissioned Mr. South to tattoo copies of pictures by their favorite artist on their shoulders, chests or backs. In this respect Charles Dana Gibson easily leads the field as the most popuiai American draughtsman- One Ameri can millionaire, a crack rifle shoT^a* premier horse owner, Is the proud possessor of a "Gibson Girl" on his left shoulder. It seems that many Americans have had their full names tattooed on their wrists and forearms. Mr. South says he has many American women as cus tomers. They are more seutimental than the sterner sex, according to the artist, and they run to names, or the private crests of their sweethearts. The work is usually done on the legs, but many of the fairer sex are having elaborate designs executed on their backs. In this as in other walks of life fair woman has lived up to her reputation for a chameleonlike state of mind, for the artist declares he has several times changed tke name of a sweetheart for women customers. The tattooing craze appears to be even more advanced in England and on the continent than in the United States. Here Is seems to have touched even the highest rung of the social ladder. The prince of Wales himself is said to have some most artistic work on his arm, while the crown princess of Denmark, Lady Cornwal- Ha West and members of the royal family of Russia are said to be devotees of the craze. Some of them are. even said to have become adept at thp art itself. Among society at the present time problems in bridge are especially popular as subjects for the tatoo artist. One woman recently had "her last will and testament" in four colors and many elaborations, tattooed on her back. Religious devotees have peculiar hobbies, and a particularly pious old lady recently had a likeness of her priest tattooed on her arm by Mr. South. Shanghai Fears the T r a m . An electric tramway service willprobably be started in Shanghai soon. A native paper has been urging the Chinese guilds to organize a boycott of the trams, and it declares that the dangers from the speed of the trams and live wires must cause Innumerable fatal accidents. ..if*;;.; •* A~> •'*.

Wit and humor are such elemental, fundamental things that it has always l>een found difficult to analyze them. I'pon some points, however, those who have essayed this puzzling task agree, for they all hold that wit Is an intellectual, humor nn emotional, quality; that wit Is n perception of resemblance and humor n perception of contract, of discrepancy, of incongni Ity. The Incongruity is that which arises between the Ideal and the fact, between theory nnd practice, between pronilae and performance, and perhaps It might be added that It Is nlways or H o w Prisoners Read. "It is rather pathetic," said a prison chaplain, "the way our inmates read their surreptitious newspapers. It is bad for the poor fellows' eyes too. "It is against the rule for them to read in their cells, and In the cell doors there are peepholes, to which the jailers come noiselessly, seeing that nil the rules are enforced.

Naturalists say that the feet of the common working bee exhibit the curious combination of a basket, a brush and a pair of pinchers. The brush, the hairs of which are arranged In symmetrica t rows, is seen only with a highgrade microscope. With this brush of fniry delicacy the bee brushes its velvet robe to remove the pollen dust with which it becomes loaded while sucklug up the nectar of flowers. Another delicate apparatus is the spoon shaped appendage that receives the gleanings that the bee wishes to carry to the hive. Finally, by opening the brush and tbe basket by means of a neat, little binge, the two become a pair of pinchers, which render important service in constructing the cells for the reception of the honey.

Hope Window gloried in the fact that she was a descendant of the Mayflower pilgrimB. The three-volume genealogy on the library shelf, which showed the effects of frequent uue, established the fact, as well as the letters and relics that, In the division and redlvision of household gods, bad fallen to her branch of the family. She proudly wore the badges of the Daughters of the American Revolution, of the Colonial Damea, and of the Mayflower Descendants, and sat in the councils of these orders. Her portrait had been painted in the fashien of the Puritan Hope Winslow, and «he had a colonial room fitted up in her home. "I think you are very provoking,"' uhe exclaimed, "and quite lacking in the right kind of pride. You know that your name waB originally Alden, and that you could establish your line through the original Alden family." "Or course," admitted the young man, good-naturedly; "but my father and grandfather were both John Elden, and their example is a good one for me to emulate in all things, since both ieft the world better for having lived in it." "But you miss my meaning," persisted Hope, tapping the floor with her foot, "it would really be adding honor to their memory to establish such ancestry through them." "How waa John Alden any better Qan Jo&n Elden?" queried the young ma© a trifle indignantly. "What does history have to say of him more important than the fact that he was so thick-headed that poor little Priacllla had to propose to him? I don't think that the little crippled ones down at the Elden Home would revere my father'B memory any more if I were to tell them that his ancestor came over in the Mayflower." Hope coquettishly fenced his indignation. "Yes; but, John -I wish you' would become eligible to attend the costume ball of our New England society, so that you might dance the minuet with me—and—oh! ever so many others!" "Thank you," said John, still grimly; "you know I love to dance with you, Hope; but I only wear knee trousers when I golf, and since I left the football team I have given up long hair. I might as well tell you now, Hope, that your New England society seems a make-believe to me, when almost all your members were born in the Mississippi valley, and all of them live here. Your duty is to be doing something to build up the west, rather than—" "That will do, Mr. Elden," glared Hope, rising to her feet. "Fortunately your opinion is a matter of indifference to me, so further enlargement upon the topic is unnecessary. And you will please excuse me now, as I have some committee work for the New England society this afternoon. ' "I've done it," soliloquized the young man dejectedly, as he strode down street. "Made a fool of myself as usual, and now Hope is angry clear through. This will mean that Thurby. with his Declaration of Independence record, will have a clear field. I wish the memory of the Puritan Fathers was in Halifax, or that I could keep my beastly temper!" And because of these circumstances the business of the North Star Milling company, the presidency and management of which had fallen by inheritance into John Elden's hands, received redoubled attention from him; while the forthcoming costume ball of the New England society became the apparent aim of Hope Winslow's existence. But. as she viewed herself in the. mirror on the night, of the hall, arrayed as a gray-gowned, white-capped Puritan maiden, she gave a little sigh tor the John Alden of her dream. Then she ran downstairs where her aunt, in the finery of a Martha Washington dame, was beaming upon Thurby, who, as a continental officer, was to act as their escort. The ballroom was thronged with a picturesque crowd—Puritan and cavalier, quaker and courtier, straight locks and perfumed curls, homespun and brocade flashed back and forth as iim Marched and swung and courteaied IjMa* old-ti»* measures. save continental officer had ex •ewed himself during the evening, and only returned in time to pot the two ladies into their carriage. He was breathless, rather dishevelled and minus his sword and cocked hat. The situation plainly demanded an explanation. "I cannot tell you hnw sorry 1 was to leave you, particularly without telling you the mason." ho began, "but 1 did not want to spoil your evening." *Has anything happened that concerns me?" queried Hope, leaning torward in alarm. .-• "Something that concerns one of your frienda," returned the young man. "Fire started in the North Star elevators this evening, and when I heard of it 1 hurried acrosB the city to see if I could help Elden—he and I were college chums, you know." Hope had partly risen from the seat opposite, aa she asked eagerly: "Oh, was it entirely destroyed ?" "Yes, Miss Winslow,' was the reluctant answer. "Not only two of the elevators, but the mill, as well as three cars of flour. The buildings were so close together that with the high wind it was impossible to aave anything but elevator No. 3, which was on the other side of the w,lnd. About 15,000 bushels of grain were destroyed, too, and while there was a large insurance, the loss is likely to cripple the company. I stayed with John until it was over, and I had persuaded him to go home—" "Take me to him at once!" interrupted Hope, imperiously. Then, as He rorgot his loss, forgot the black hours through which he had gone; a wonder seemed to fill him. "And you came to me! You are not angry, you forgive my rudeness?" "Why, John," she said, in sweet expostulation, "how could I think of anything but your trouble?" She stopped, and an agonized flush swept to her hair. A sense of all that was Implied by her. impulsive notion overwhelmed her. Only for a moment did her confusion last, for the young man before her seemed to recall suddenly all that his trouble ~ Involved, and dropped his head upon his arm with a groan. In a moment Hope was at his side. "You must not grieve," she said. "You are young, and have much ability, and can soon—" "And I am practically ruined," he groaned. "I must not talk to you, nor think of you, nor belong to your world any more. I must go to the bottom of the ladder, and must put all sweetness and joy behind me." "But indeed you must think of me," insisted Hope. "Now 1B when you need your frienda more than ever in your life, and we will stand by you." "But, Hope, you do not realize," he said, almost fiercely, "why I cannot, dare not think of you. I have had such thoughts, such longings—and now everything must be put behind me." Hope was kneeling beside him now, her hands on his arm, as she answered, between laughing and crying: "I verily believe, John, that you are a true descendant of John Alden. You called him thick-headed because poor little Priscilla had to propose to him, and you are every bit as bad!" But if John Elden was as slow to realize his possible happiness as the Puritan lover, he had the twentieth century quickness of comprehension, and in the second's flash before he gathered his Priscilla into his arms he weighed the night's loss against the night's gain, and the burden rolled from his heart, leaving joy to reign there, along with a zest for the tasks ahead of him. For Hope had come. THE CANADIAN CROPS THREE-QUARTERS OF THE AVERAGE YIELD 13 REPORTED. THE FARMERS DO NOT LOSE Heard the young man hesitated, and glanced at her aunt, she added pleadingly, "Please take me to him—you and Auntie~I am one of John's friends, too, and—oh, don't you see that I must go, just for a moment?" Thurby turned a searching glance upon her, received a gesture of assent from the colonial dame beside her, and then leaning forward, gave an order to the coachman. There was dejection as well as exhaustion in John Elden's attitude, as he sat deeply in his study chair, with one arm thrown limply across his desk. Smoke and grime marked his face and dress, and his eyes, looking darkly into the future, saw years of toil ahead of him. The weight of sudden and awful misfortune was heavy upon him. "What's the use of trying?" he was asking himself. "There's no one to care—no one to work for." The door from the hall opened softly, and a figure advanced to the lamplight's rim. He stared as one in a trance. Before him stood a demure and sweet^Priseilla, her gray-gowned figure thrown into relief against the dark red lining of her cloak—a lovely, white-capped Puritan maiden with changing color and shining eyes. For a moment longer he looked. "Hope! he whispered. "I just, heard about it, John," she said softly, "and I came right, to you, to tell you how sorry I am." Rebuked the King. An elderly gentleman with a slight limp was making his way along the platform at the Northern railway station at Paris, carrying a small satchel. There brushed hastily by him a young woman with much swishing of befrilled skirts, a thread of which caught in the clasp of the satchel. The young woman stopped, and the old gentleman attempted to free the caught thread without injuring the fabric, but this was a delicate operation, taking some time to accomplish. The young woman, impatient at the delay and addressing no one in particular— it might have been the bag or the skirt or the old gentlemar--ex claimed: "Stupid old thing!" "Quite so, madam," replied the traveller, with his most graci us smile. The elderly gentleman was the King of the Belgians. Husbands' Tributes to Wives. Few tributes of husbands have been more beautiful than Steele's dedication of one of his books: "How often lias your tenderness removed pain from my sick head, how often anguish from my affected heart? If there are such things as guardian angels, they are thus employed. I cannot believe one of them to be more good in inclination or more charming in form, than my wife." By its side, however, we may place Disraeli's dedication of "Sybil:" "I would Inscribe this work to one whose noble spirit and gentle nature ever prompt her to sympathize with the suffering; to one whose sweet voice has often encouraged, and' whose taste and judgment have ever its pages—the most severe of but. a perfect wife." guided critics, Tea Baths for Eyes. Few practices are more beneficial to the condition of the eyes than is that of bathing them regularly every night before going to bed. Dust readily accumulates on the lids between the lashes and makes them smart, an excellent method of cleaning them being the old-fashioned one of dabbing the lids with a piece of cotton wool dipped in cold weak tea.

Moat of the states of the union felt the unusually severe winter of 1906-7, and the effects of the succeeding late spring were everywhere apparent Corn was planted two and sometimes three times, the winter wheat suffered and generally there was a nervous feeling as the retarded growth was in evidence. From the Dakotas to Texas the feeling of dread existed, and the fears were entertained that the crop of corn, wheat, oata and barley would be a distinct failure.

This interest was a nervous one and caused considerable indecision on the part of friends and others intending to follow. Those interested in Injuring the country circulated stories of ruin and disaster, but the effect was lost, as it had been long enough in the limelight to prove its high standing amongst the agricultural sections of the continent. The heavy strain placed upon it was not too great; it has shown that the faith placed in it has been warranted, and The above is the reproduction of 'a •photograph of the home of a recent settler from Germany, who has been settled in Saskatchewan, western Canada, for two years. it is this year producing undoubted evidence that In agricultural possibilities and resources it stands among the first, of food producers. A late spring delayed seeding from the usual early April period until late in May, and In many cases well on into June. And with what result? it is a little early to tell the result, but that there will be a three-quarter crop Is almost absolutely certain. The yield of wheat In 1906 was 95,000,000 bushels; 1$07 it will be between 70,000,000 and *#,•«,- 000. It could not be expected' tlmt June-sown grain would maturd . gftel ripen in any country. The May-sown ripened, and this Is the feature--;' has proved western C£tuftte's euptf^ur ity as a grain-growing cotttry. demonstrates that the fettftfe rif shine is so great that tifegrowlj " ripening season, aUhougfc number of days than IsV Mkrta south, in hours is a3 gfeJuTor g A correspondent oi the Torfjato of an admittedly unfavorable season tfhoultl not be a'lowed to sink out of sight at a time when returns from agricultural activity in the west are being anxiously awaited. These figures do not take account of the lower grades, of which there were 131 cars. More than onethird of these contained milling wheat, which would remunerate the farmer at the rate of 93c per buBhel on the basis of to-day's closing figures. The balance consisted of low grade stuff which would show great "Hpreads" in prices. "The approximate value of the two days' receipts of wheat, however,, would be more than $400,000 calculating the capacity of a car at 1,000 bushels and'eliminating the cost of freight and handling. As many of the modern cars contain more than 1.000 bushels and a s the freight rate to l<"ort William is less than 15c per ewt. on most of the wheat which Is now coming forward, the estimate of $400,000 is low. The circulation of SJM,- 000 per day among the farmers will not continue for the whole year, of course, hut that figure is likely to bo exceeded before the present rush of wheat to the market abates. The conversion «f~ ttm crop into money may bo said to-' be proceeding in a most satisfactory way and there is no doubt that millions of dollars will have gone into the pockets of the farmers by the time navigation on the hikes closes. Even then only a small proportion of the wheat will have come out. Experience has shown that the railways do not carry very much of the wheat to the l,ake Superior ports before the freeze-up comes, and the proportion will probably be smaller than usual this year on account of the lateness of the thrashing season. "On the whole the prospect is a most cheerful one, the likelihood being that the satisfactory returns for the past few days will be greatly exceeded in the coming six or seven weeks. The fact that wheat of any kind is bound to bring a remunerative price this season Is the comforting feature of the situation and there is no occasion for concern over the possibility of the general quality of the {Train being below that of previous years. The high standard of the wheat raised in the west in 1905-1906 was undoubtedly a great advertisement for the country and it would have been well If that excellent record could have been continued, but it Is not reasonable to expect that 90 per cent, of the wheat will be of contract grade every year aa it was in the years mentioned. If 76 per cent. or. even 60 per cent, of this season's yield be up to the contract standard there will be room for congratulation. The west will reap a large return of its Investment of money, time and labor this year as it did in any preceding season, and by BO do* ing it will have done its whole duty to thoae who have placed faith In Its fertll- * ity and resourcefulness.

All one has to do is to loosen the crystal part and clean that, and when the silver needs rubbing up or polishing it is separated from the crystal. The silver stems are hand work of the most expensive kind. ^They are daintily' embossed, carved or engraved, and usually they have the fashionable gray tint that so much of the new table silver shows. Silver and crystal fare comes in all th* wine sizes, liqueurs, some with short stems and others with very tall, slender ones, in grape fruit and sherbert glasses. Separate dishes for compotes, jellies and nuts are treated in the same way, combining silver and cut crystal. There la also a fad for lemon dishes and sance dishes of crystal and silver. These have the bowl part made of glass and then there are pierced silver rims that suggest the atyJo of silver in vogue about a cen* tury ago. The rims are easily remov ed for cleaning purposes.

Quite lately the Institution has received a legacy of about $100,000 from a Dr. Jarvia Bennett, and soon afterward heard from his daughter, who at the age of 17 had married against her father's wishes, a Swisfl valet She stated that she was living ir extreme poverty in Switzerland, ai»d appealed for help. It was finally decided to allow her five dollars a week for ten years, which would represent for that time the income on about five per cent, of her fathers gift. And They Will Ride Backward, Reports a Traveler of Englishmen. Travelers returning from England tell of two habits of the people of that country which impressed them. One is the average Englishman's aversion to shutting the door behind him. "I don't know how it is in the English houses," remarked one who returned recently from abroad, "for 1 was not in one of them, but 1 stayed in a hotel in London where there were a good many English people, and a dozen times daily i had to get up and shut a door to keep ihe draught away. "It didn't make any difference whether it was a servant or a guest who went through, the door was left open, This was in the spring of the year, too, when the weather was chil ly. 1 'noticed the same thing in rail way coaches and hotels of smaller towns." The other English peculiarity is a preference for riding backward on trains. The Englishman will make for the seat with its back to the engine every time, plant himself down in it with every evidence of comfort and look wonderingly at anybody who picks out a seat facing the direction the train is going. Not once did one American traveling in England see a native choose a seat facing the front of the train unless there were no other seats. Cruelty. The little wife was In great, distress. *'What are you crying about, dear?" asked the young husband. "Oh, George, the mice have got into the pantry and eaten up a beautiful custard pie I made myself." "There, dear, don't cry over a few little mice," said George. A Joke Astray. An English clergyman confesses in the London Tribune that once, relying on his hearers' fund of humor, he made a joke at a public meeting, and was sorry for it very soon afterward. He was the speaker at a meeting in Cornwall, and at the close of his speech was complimented on his knowledge of the Cornish dialect 'Well," he replied, "that is easy enough to understand, because I was a minor myself until I was 21 years of age."

Recent Attempts to Tabulate Beasts That Perish. the Every new and then some naturalist endeavors to make an approximate numerical count ot known animal species This kind of attempt Is surely not without interest, but it must be acknowledged that its results are very uncertain We are far from knowing all species, and there is yet a delightful prospect ahead tor those who love systematic zoology and for zoologists who bestow mutual honors by giving each other's names to some animal hitherto unknown As Nurmann remarked to a recent meeting of naturalists at the museum, tc which he presented his "Catalogues Mammallum," the species of rodents known in 1880 were only 970 in number; now they are 1,900 The number has thus, at least, doubled in 27 years The number of living species of this creature now known Is about 1,500. divided among 160 genera.

"My little daughter broke out all over her body with a humor, and we used everything recommended, but without results. 1 called in three doctors, but she continued to grow worse. Her body was a mass of sores, and her little face was being eaten away. Her ears looked as if they would drop off. Neighbors advised me to get Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and before I had used half of the cake of Soap and box of Ointment the sores had atl healed, and my little one's face and body were as clear as a new-born babe's.

Thomas Howlett, near Gregory, caught tire in the garrett over the kitchen and burned to the ground. The neighbors were call ed by telephone and responded, thus about, one half of the household effects were saved. The los* is estimated at $2000, insured for $1000. Mr. Howlett is making plans to rebnild in the coming spring. The committee that have charge ot raising funds for and seeing that the cemetery at this place was cleaned for the past three or four years are having some much needed work done now and it is a good plan to have it done in the fall as then everything is ready for t^ie spring growth. H o w - ever the committee informs that there is only about $7 or $8 lett in the fund and any who desire work done should see to it and hand in their contribution at once. Certainly everyone should take pride^n helping keep the cemetery in good order Irish 8arca«m. A happy and humorous example of sarcasm as apart from repartee is afforded by the following anecdote. 1 quote It on the authority of n friend, who, I nm afraid, was the villain of the Incident: A most imperturbable man was followed from Westmoreland street, Dublin, over the O'Connell bridge to the general postotlice by two little street nrabs, who Importuned him for the end of bis cigar. "Throw us the butt, sir! Ah. sir, throw us the butt!" cried the youths, but as the man did not betray the slightest consciousness of their existence they gave him up at last in despair and disgust "Arrah, let him alone." said one, with the most scorching scorn. "Shure, it's a butt he's picked up himself." I once heard a bumptious little man, who, acting as steward at athletic sports in Dublin, was very assertive In keeping back the crowd, thus addressed by an angry spectator: "If the consate was taken out of yez, ye'd be no bigger than a green gooseberry, and ye're as sour as wan already!"— London Standard.

A man who was summoned for beating his wife tried hard to put all the blame upon his mother-in-law and was chided by the bench for his lack of gallantry. "Why should it always be the fashion for a man to malign his motherin- law?" the magistrate remarked. "Is chivalry quite dead among us? I knew a mau once who never spoke an unkind word to his mother-in-law, never blamed her in the least for his quarrels with his wife and never had the bad taste to complain about her to other people." The wife beater stared open mouthed as he listened to the recital of the domestic paragon's virtues. Then he said: "Oh, yes, I've heard of that fellow lie fore. Ills name was Adam!"— Loudon Globe. The Coach and Four Cam*. Among the many records of Harrow school is that of a boy, the son of a poor local tradesman In a very smalt way of business.

Being human, happily or unhappily, we cannot deny the comfort to be found In the reflection that misery never lacks the company it loves. We all have our troubles, and some of us derive much satisfaction from the contemplation of them. Indeed, there are those who are happy only when wretched, but these we believe to be as few In number as they are disagreeable in association. The vast majority of humans are normal and disposed," therefore, In conformity with natural law, to smile when the skies are clear and to grieve under the portent of clouds; hence the ease with which worry takes possession of the mind, colors the disposition and makes a cripple of effort That causes abound we know and must admit, as we do almost unconsciously the certainty of death, but too little cognizance is taken of the fact that the effect of mere apprehension, which is all that worry really ia, may be Butyected to simple mental treatment and be overcome.—George Harvey in Xorth American Review. Bee Comb. Bee comb or beeswax, the material of which the honey cells In the beehive are composed, Is a wax produced by a system of chemistry carried on in the "wax pockets" which are located in the abdomen of all working bees. It is a peculiar substance and is said to b e ' J analogous to the fats of higher animals. Originally It was supposed that this wax was taken up in an almost pure state from the flowers by the bees, but experiments carried on by the leading botanists and chemists of the world conclusively prove that the bee is capable of elaborating his peculiar wax, although confined to a diet purely saccharin in its nature.

The entertainment was in charge of iJiss Florence Sproat, the Vice President of the social department astsibted by the President of the League, Glenn Gardner. They proyed themselves to be masters of the situation and to tbeir zeal and hustle the success of the affair may be attributed. One of the excellent features of the evening was an oyster supper and everyone present had all they could eat and still there was plenty let>. Coffee and doughnuts were also served. One of the good things about it was that there was no charge made as the expense was born by the League dues. The only way you can help pay such bills is so join and pay your five cents per monUa. The company did not break up until mid-night, but all lelt well repaid for coming out and wonder when the League .will entertain again.

It obscures the entire landscape or foreground. The king of Annam is accused of boiling one of his wives, whereas, as every married man knows, only an occasional mild roast is allowable. A Winnipeg girl has married a circus freak called the "human torch." Now she probably thinks she has a husband whose love is not likely to grow cold. New York makes contracts to have the manure hauled away from her city stables, and then pays $150,000 for fertilizer. And then she complains of being robbed. A St. Louis woman is asking for a divorce because her husband loves a baseball game more than his home. Perhaps he could fix up matters if he'd buy her a diamond.

Japan is getting excited about the importation of Chinese coolies "who are willing to work for half of what a Japanese laborer demands," and there are indications of labor riots in consequence. This is no uncertain testimony to the growing civilization of Japan. Over 1,000,000 letters went to the dead letter office in September, and only $5,251.74 was found in the lot. Of this $4,371.64 was returned to senders, but it will probably be impossible to make the remainder cover the claims of the people who will say: "Well, I mailed it to you, anyway." A voung man in San Francisco has really perpetrated the old joke of marrying his grandmother. But as she was only in her twenties, his own sweetheart, and had married his 80- /ear-old grandfather to keep the latter's money for her disinherited lover, there seems to have been a good deal of method la his matrimonial madness. In the combined utilities, water, gas, electricity, subways, wharves and public libraries, New York surpasses all other cities, according to Mr. Carnegie.

Upper Penintula Situation Shows a Reach Out for a L a r g e r Share of the Plums. Michigan Sugar. Carman N. Smith, manager of the Owosso Sugar Co. and president of the Michigan Sugar Manufacturers' association, says: "If people in Michigan fully understood the importance of tne beet sugar industry to the state and the peril in which it i« beiug placed by the proposed Philippine tariff they would be a unit in demanding that the legislation under consideration be shelved immediately and indellnitely. The trouble is that people don't understand huw great this industry baa grown to be, and huw much is involved in the proposed tariff changes," he continued. "We have in this state now, sixteen factories with a capacity of slicing 10,000 tons uf beets a day. There are three in Hay City, one each in Saginaw, Caro, Croswell. Sebewaing, St. Louis, Alma, Owusso, Lansing, Blissfleld, Holland, Mt. Clemens, Menominee and Charlevoix. "These factories represent an actual investment of $10,000,000. l^ast year they paid to farmers $4,750,000 and their output in sugar was valued at $8,750,000. There are 30,000 farmers in the state who raise sugar beets. "So much for the. state. In the whole country the value of the beet sugar product in 1906 was $30,500,000. The farmers got $20,000,000 of this for their product and there is invested in 64 factories $00,000,000^ "This entire great industry inevitably will be wiped out if the Philippine tariff bill becomes law. "More than that: This great business was built up because of the direct promises of protection by the United States government and that government today is seeking to destroy it for the sake of mere sentimentalism." A Political View. It is said that the announcement of Governor Warner's intention to become a candidate fer re-election next year was received with great satisfaction in nearly all parts of the upper peninsula. The majority of the newspapers are with the governor in his fight against the boxers and will support his candidacy. In case of the governor's re-election he will also find his friends of the opposition ranks in line. There is not the slightest question of the return of Senators Morjarty and Charles Smith to the next senate, if these gentlemen so desire. The governor cannot reach them; they will be nominated under the convention system and their districts are overwhelmingly Republican. The eastern part of the upper peninsula, however, will send a senator who will Indorse any sane reform policy of the administration. Senator O. B. Fuller has the full indorsement of the upper peninsula press in his candidacy for auditorgeneral. The impression is general that for the many years of faithful support of the Republican ticket, the upper peninsula is now entitled to more than a mere figurehead as the lieutenant-governor's position is considered, but to something worth while and to all appearances the position of auditor-general is considered the right one. Bees Locate in Detroit. Headquarters of the supreme tent, Knights of Maccabees of the World, one of the largest fraternal insurance organizations in the United States will be located in Detroit after Jan nary 1 next. The committee of officers to whom was delegated, at the last triennial session of the body, the task of choosing a location in Detroit for the Maccahee temple, have purchased a fine stone residence, capable of extension to provide all the room necessary. The building and grounds are assessed for about $45,000, considerably less than the market value, and while the price paid is secret it is understood the consideration was in the neighborhood of $50,000. The grounds front 129 feet on Woodward avenue by 200 on Putnam avenue. The building will he aemodeled on the interior to fit it for office purposes and sometime in th» future a big addition of the same style architecture as the present structure will be built. Banks Are Safe. State Banking Commissioner Zimmerman haa issued the following nnnouncement on the Michigan financial situation: There ia absolutely no excuse for becoming exercised the slightest degree about the financial situation in Michigan. Our banks are maintaining a high reserve and can meet every legitimate need. The united action of the banks doing a savings business in taking advantage of the rule requiring notice of withdrawals is commendable and wise. Our banks were never in better condition and the action taken almply demonstrates clearly that uur bankers are determined to keep the banka 4a t)*t excellent condition they are n o * im.

The Early Pa sea go of a Corporation Control Bill Is Doomed Advisable and no Opposition to Bo Made. It is reported from undoubted sources that President Roosevelt is now being urged to call an extra session of congress to deal with the financial situation. The request comes from and represents the Judgment of the conservative leaders in the financial world, who have represented the present situation as one compelling action of a character which will affirmatively eradicate all ground for saspiciuu of American industrial methodvS. The president has been assured from most reliable sources that there will be no opposition on the part of the great industries of the country to the enactment ft the necessary laws to curry out his ideas of federal control to the extent to which he expounded them in his recent public utterances. These assurances are made at this time to avert what has been represented as the most dangerous situation which has confronted the country during an extended historic period—that is, the seeming growing lack of confidence based on known irregularities in business methods in some quarters, and no sure and speedy means of separating the good from the unsound. To thiB end, it is suggested that the president set congress to the task first, of making such amendments to the financial laws as will result in the maximum of flexibility, and perhaps most in importance, that the president embody his suggestions on corporation control into succinct recommendations for enactment into law. In this connection the president's attention has been directed to what he said at Provincetown, Mass., August 20 last: "I believe in a national Incorporation law for corporations engaged In interstate business. I believe, furthermore, that the need for action is most pressing as regards those corporations which, because they are common carriers, exercise a qua&i-public function, and which can be completely controlled, in all respects by the federal government, by the exercise of the power conferred under the interstate commerce clause, and, if necessary, under the post road clause of the constitution. • * * * * The national government should exercise over them a similar supervision and control to that which it exercises over national banks. We c?n do this only by proceeding farther along the lines marked out by the recent national legislation." To meet his views, the president then suggested amendments to the Sherman anti-trust law, and the ad dition of a criminal clause to that and the interstate commerce regulations. The benefit of having federal legal machinery to detect, and eradicate unwholesome business methods at this time was said to be the desirable end to be accomplished. This would mean, it is pointed out, a practical wiping off of the slate and a starting afresh under business conditions which would have and which could bear the closest of public scrutiny. That the president, has given the request for an extra session careful consideration- is indicated by those who have been asked to lend their advice in the matter. That the information as to existing conditions is not alarming has been the continuing assurance. With this in view, the president has been told that the call for an extra session of congress might have the reverse effect from that desired by those who are urging such action; that it would tend to emphasize in the public mind an apprehension of unfavorable conditlo»s which do not esist. Failing in obtaining an extra session, those who have made the appeal for it have presented an alternative or an additional request that the president make a public statement of the assurance he feels in the sound condition of public credit. This, too, has met with a measure of opposition from the administration's advisers. Both suggestions are still matters of consideration, although no Information whatever is obtainable regarding either directly from the White House.

T h e resolution, says: "The conference of representatives of the raflwty men of England, Ireland* Scotland *ad Wales, realising the grave responsibility involved in t h e declaration of a national railway strike, regrets t i u t the arbitrary refusal of t h e raiiwajr companies to meet the accredited representatives of the men, even t o uia* cuss a settlement by friendly regotlatlons, leaves no other course open but to carry out the mandate of our members, as disclosed in tbe result of theballot, and we therefore reoommand that the executive committee issue notice to the papers and to the wholerailway service." The British railway employes a n d the companies have been at loggerheads for some time on the question of the cecognition of the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants and ihe granting of a new scale of wages and hourB. Finally it was decided by the employee to reach a decision by "ballot of all the members. The council of the railway companies' association, lu its reply to ihe men, pointed out that it had no power to appoint representatives to meet ihe delegates of the unions, as proposed, and discuss questions which affected the relations between individual companies and their employes. The seriousness of a railway tie-up in the United Kingdom is difficult to overestimate. It not only will paralyze the Industries, but soon will starve out the Inhabitants of all the interior cities of England, where t h e r e are only a few days' food supplies on hand. Richard Bell, M. P., leader of the strike, said: "The resolution means all t h a t it says. Not only the members of ihe society, but every man engaged in :he railway service In the United Kingdom will get notice. We took the opinion of our members, and knowing that, and knowing also that thousands of men outside the society are in sympathy with us, we resolved to call on every man to come out." Mr. Bell, in a recent address to a large body of railway men at Cardiff, said that a strike would be a terrible calamity and that the society intended to exhaust every means to reach a peaceful solution. The strike will involve 100,000 men. Fully 80,000 of them voted in favor of it. T h e railway managers say that a great many men will remain loyal t o them, and failed to respond to effort* made by Mr. Lloyd-George, president of the board of trade, to avert a strike.

A Spaniard named Bulguera. a recent arrival from Manila, has caused excitement In Spain by a story that there are more than 4,000 Spanish prisoners tn Bulacan province, island of San Juan del Monte.

"*' iC^"'*'' :9 * * * * * * * * When Mr. Ferris Archer was ush. «re4 Vy an obsequious butler Into the luxurious library of Judge Van Nostrami. cn a certain cold evening lato ia NoFwatJer, and sank Into a comfortable eawchair before a bright fire of soft coal, it was with a feeling of complete and entire satisfaction. He had, in short, for months been living in a sort of Fool's Paradise, and he was at this moment awaiting the coming of the woman he loved. A bold and skillful painter of brilliant landscapes Archer was, and, with hosts of friends among the loveliest and most brilliant women in the town, he chose to lay the tribute of his love at the feet of the quietest and least dazzling of them all. Helen Van Nostrand waa not "a man's woman;" Bhe had many friends, but they were chiefly among those of her own sex; and in spite of her wealth and position and the charming and gracious hospitality which she -dispensed as head of her fathers household (for her mother had died when she was a very young girl), in spite also of a certain qnlet charm of manner which even birth and breeding do not always bestow, Miss Van Noetrand had the reputation of being rather cold and reserved, and there were even these who rather feared to meet the severe directness of her honest gray eyes. Yet there were others, and Archer was one of these, who knew that under the rather cold exterior there beat a warm, impulsive, woman's heart Absolutely free from coquetry, MIBS Van Nostrand had never betrayed for Archer the slightest feeling beyond the frankest confidence and good will; they were the best of friends, which was just what rendered the situation most hopeless. Moreover, Archer was proud. Far too proud to ask the daughter of Judge Van Nostrand to cast in her lot with a vagabond artist like himself. ~Xnd~sd'he drifted on, trying to be content with the half sovereignty of a kingdom upon whose throne he could never hope to sit; and at least his secret was hts own. Ho was kept waiting for her coming rather longer than usual on this particular evening, and he had fallen into a reverie from which he was aroused by a little ripple of a laugh which made him spring to his feet. It was good to hear Helen Van Nostraud's laugh. "Ah!" she said; "I was wording an apology for keeping you waiting while I was flnishiug (he copying of father's speech for the great meeting to-morrow night—and here I come upon you so absorbed in thoughts of somebody else that you do not even hear me outer the room." She was tall for a woman, yet she was obliged to throw back her head a . little to reach the higher level of his •fCs. She dropped hnr own presently, blushing a little at the expression in his, which had in it something more than his usual attentiveness, and she gently disengaged the hand which he fcsA held 'while she was speaking. **WHh the other hand she lightly tMf hed a bunch of double violets, tho 4»1? spot of color about her dress of soft gray. "You see," she said, "I have your violets, and you must prepared for a little lecture on travagance; flowers are not to be had at this season Just for the plucking, nor should my selfish passion for them be indulged in so often." "But," said Archer, smiling as he drew up a chafr for her beside his own, "what if I could prove, thai aside from the quite immeasurable pleasure which I receive In sending you the flowers, you are also indirect ly helping somebody who could per haps be helped in no other way?" Hate* raised questioning eyes. "I ft*r T 4 * not understand," she said, fcer head. "If you mean the 4»r the person who grows tbe valets—" ""Right as usual," cried Archer; "but how did you guess the secret of my pretty flower maiden?" Another question in the gray eyes. "I have waa4*tl to tell you about her before," 'went on, and he paused a mo- •ittnd smiled thoughtfully, as he were conjuring up a pleas- Ion, Helen thought. "You see. he went on, "I have always known your fondness for violets, and 1 always procured those I you at one particular place. One a few months ago, X went in and d the proprietor (a very good of a fellow/by the way) talking j to a pretty young woman, whom 11 recognlted at once as the daughter of I an e l d friend of my father's whom I • had not seen tor years; the remem-, fcerfflas, strangely 9&*ttg%. t a d i t (Copyright.) p walked home with her, talking over all that had happened since we parted. Hers was a sad story, poor child; her father had embezzled and then died, leaving his wife (a chronic Invalid) and hie young daughter to struggle on as best they could. They bad a small house, the only thing left from the wreck, with a large, old fashioned garden in tbe rear. I remember as a boy how fond Amy was of digging and planting there; she could always make anything grow, and it occurred to her that she might raise flowers for the market. She had arranged with Mather & Grau, it seems, to send all her violets to them, and they send them directly to you; she does not suspect me, of course, and so you see we are really rendering her the assistance which she so much needs, without in any way wounding her pride." Helen had been watching Archer attentively as he talked, biting off T*o gf*C*e¥w o?£f££| grower of Ytolsts. i At he reentered the room, b e stood for a moment in the doorway waiting for Helen to turn Her head, and thinking to surprise her as she had done earner in the evening. And* then Miss Van Nostrand did a strange thing; she was standing where he had left her before tbe mantel, and presently she unpinned the violets from her drees, held them for a moment in her hand a s though irresolute, and then, stooping, she laid the flowers deliberately on the glowing coals. And then she turned and saw .Archer watching her in astonished silence; with a little cry she instinctively clasped her hands ever the place where the flowers had been fastened on her dress. A great wave of color had swept all over her face, but Archer was very pale as his quick glance traveled from tbe little clasped hands to the flowers smouldering in the fire. Presently be came close to her and tried to read her eyes, veiled beneath impenetrable lids. "Helen," he said hoarsely, "you do not care for the violets—is it—because I sent them that you scorn them thus?" And then, as she did not reply, he went on, "I knew you did not care, for me," he said, "but oh, Helen! it 1B cruel to learn it In this wayf" She could not endure the agonized entreaty of his voice, and she raised her eyes, full of a penitence, whose full meaning he did not dare to understand. "Oh, Ferris," she faltered. "Can you not see? I thought you loved her— your flower girl—and so—" But she did not finish her sentence. Archer had seized both her hands and was laughing in a perfect delirium of Joy. "You thought I loved Amy!" he cried. "Oh, Helen, hew could you be so blind! And besides, I forgot to tell you she is going to be married to Mr. Grau, the rich florist, in the spring. But, Helen!"—he had drawn her so close that he could whisper the words in her ear—"she shall force her choicest violets to bloom for our wed ding, shall she not?" And Helen threw back her head with a happ/ little laugh. "Violets are the only flowers I shall ever wear " she said. * , - jnay<ifffc.ttfffi pft m\ " C e r t a i n l y I W i l l Ge and See Your Friend," She Said. little pieces from a violet with her white teeth. "Is she pretty?" she asked suddenly. "Yes, and more than that," said Archer. "She has tho most unusual and delicate coloring, and a pretty trick of drooping her head, which always reminds me of a flower." "I should like to see this dainty beauty," said Helen, but somehow her voice iacked its usual cordiality. Archer did not notice it. "Would you, really?" he said eagerly. "Do you mean that you would go and see the poor little tiling? She has no friends, you know; U\:\t is, no women-friends, and ever since I have discovered how sad and lonely her life is I have wished that the could know you." Helen paused a nwiju.mt. 1; lore replying. "Certainly I wul go and S'-e your friend," she said, speaking in spite of hcrxelf a little coldly. "I do not quite B E R L I N H A S PRIZE GARAGE. Tanks in Building Can Hold 12,000 ^ Gallons of Benzine. Berlin.—The * biggest automobile garage in the world will be the one to be established by the Berlin Omnibus company, which will have tanks holding the unprecedented quantity of 12,000 gallons of benzine. To safeguard the building against explosions, the benzine will be stored on the Martin Huneke system, which has prevented an explosion of 24,000 gallons In a fire which destroyed a hvige Ilerlin storage building. The benzine will be kept in two underground tanks, upon which will be a strong pressure of carbonic acid gas to prevent the formation of explosive gases, and the carbonic acid gas will provide fhe power for pumping the benzine up to taps.

"Oh, no! not that," said Archer ! quickly.

Fort Worth, Tex.—Another kink has been found in the anti-pass legislation. With death a man ceases to be a railroad employe, and fare must be paid for the transportation of his body. Aplication was made to the Trinity & Brazos Valley line for transportation for the body of a former employe of the Cotton Belt. Investigation shows that under the Tartlllot O h o ^ y ^ ^ c l ^ f l l f r ; Tbja ghost story i s contributed by a do^reipoj»dent of an English magazime: "Wjcollar hall, near Colne, was long the scat of the Cunliffes, of BjHJogton. They were noted persona in their time, but evil days came, and their ancestral estates passed out of their hands. In the days of the commonwealth their loyflty cost them d«far;. and ultimately they retired to Wycollar with a. remnant only of their once extensive property. About 1819 the last of the family pasBed away, and the hall is now a mass of ruins. Little but the antique fireplace remains entire, and even the room alluded to in the following legend cannot be Identified. Tradition sayB that once every year a specter horseman visits Wycollar hall. He is attired in the costume of the early Stuart period, and the trappings of his horse are of a most uncouth description. "On tbe evening of his visit the weather is always wild and tempestuous. There Is no moon to light the lonely roads, and the residents of the district do not venture out of their cottages. When the wind howls loud- ,e8t the horseman can be heard dash* %ig up the road at full speed, and, after crossing the narrow bridge, he suddenly stops at the door of the hall. The rider then dismounts and makes his way up the broad oaken stairs into one of the rooms of the house. Dreadful screams, as from a woman, are then heard, which soon subside into groans. The horseman then makes hlB appearanoe at the door, at once mounts his steed, and gallops off by the road he came. "His body can be seen through by those who may chance to be present; his horse appears to be wild with rage, and its nostrils stream with fire. The tradition is that one of the Cunliffes murdered bis wife in that room, and that the specter horseman is the ghost of the murderer, who Is doomed to pay an annual visit to the home of his victim. She is said to have predicted the extinction of the family, which, according to the story, has been literally fulfilled." ft.' <•' F Cures "Sleeping Sickness." Prof. Koch, the great German medical authority, who has been in Africa about 18 months, inquiring into the causes and cure of that strange and widely prevalent malady, the sleeping sickness, has become famous throughout a large portion of the dark continent. He has treated and cured hundreds of black men afflicted with the dread disease mentioned, and has, therefore, been given the title of "Great White Wizard." He is continually receiving appeals from all parts of central Africa to come* to the rescue of sick and dying persons. The professor's treatment consists of an injection of atoxyl, and the results of this have usually been favorable. Electrical Plant. A plant has been discovered in Nicaragua which appears to be charged with electricity. If one of its branches is touched with the naked hand, a distinct shock similar to that produced by a battery is felt. Its influence upon a magnetic needle is noticeable at half a dozen yards, and as one gets nearer the plant this influence increases. If the instrument is placed in the center of the bush it will assume a circular movement. The intensity of the influence manifested seems to depend upon the time of day. A Cold Nose. A lady who owns a dog, and incidentally a little girl, heard a commotion in the adjoining room. Upon investigating she discovered that the commotion came largely from the dog. "You naughty child." she said, "are you trying to burn Fido, that you hold his head so near the grate?'- "No, mamma," replied the little girl; "I'm only trying to warm his nose." a i _ VERA CRUZ, MEXICO View shewing pulses antf ships at snohsr In the Philosophical, Indeed.

" A Woman Thus Speaks of Postum. We usually consider cur best friends those who treat us best. Some persons think coffee a real friend, but watch it carefully awhile and observe that it is one of the meanest of all enemies for it stabs one while professing friendship. Coffee contains a poisonous drug— caffeine—which injures the delica^ nervous system and frequently sets up disease in one or more organs of the body, if its use is persisted in. "I had heart palpitation and nervousness for four years and t h e doctor told me the trouble was caused by coffee. He advised me to leave it off, but I thought I could not," writes a Wis. lady. . "On the advice of a friend I fried Postum Food Coffee and It so satisfied me that T did not care for coffee after a few days' trial of Postum. "As weeks went by and I continued to use Postum my weight increased from 98 to 118 pounds, and the heart trouble left me, I have used it a year now, and am stronger than I ever was. I can hustle up stairs without any heart palpitation, and I am cured of nervousness. "My children are very fond of Postum and it agrees with them. My slater liked it when she drank it at my house, but not when she made it at her own home. Now she has learned to make it right, boil it according to directions, and has become very fond of it.

Natives of Somalilimd have the whitest and best teeth of any people in the world, and the reason is not far to peek. Whenever they are idle they may be found rubbing their teeth with smaM pieces of wood—little twl^s which ure covered with a soft bark and which ravels out Into bristles. This practice prevents the teeth decaying and of course keeps tliam In excellent condition. Just as one might pick a wild flower in the country so the Somali native picks his toothbrush. They are never without their small twigs. Toothbrushes as we know them are untttmwu in Somaliland. Their own metbdtis are undoubtedly the healthie s t and certainly the cheapest, and it la a matter for wonder that we do not take a leaf out of their book in this re- •pact—Dundee Advertiser. Editor of the Pinckaey Dispatch. The article in the DISPATCH of Oct. 24 under the bead of "Practically Closed Down," appears to me to be luttieadiag. I, therefore, suggest that a statement from the opinion of the Supreme Court in the case ot Reason XH Peters will be of interest to the readers of your paper, and will assist your readers in knowing**the exact situatiou. After discussing the tacts involved in the suit the Court says: "The extent of the right of tiowage by preaciptiou is uot meabured by the height of the dam, but by the exteut of the use of the lauds flowed, aud the burdeii of proving the extent of such use— Is upon the defendant* to show that they have for a period of 15 years at leabt, each year flowed uujipluiuanta' lauds to the height complained of and established by their proofs, and that such use of cumplaiuaut*' lands by nowage has beeu adverse, uninterrupted, peaceable, opeu aud notorious. Turner vs Hart, 71 Mich. 128; Chapel VB Smith, 80 Mich. 100; A. P. Cook Co vs Beard, 108 Mich. 17 Osten vs Jerome, 93 Mich., 196 Pluchak vs Crawford, 137 Mich., 509. Occupation and a use of a right of flowage or pondage, iu order to create a prescriptive right, need not be constant in the sense of a daily occupancy or use. It must be continuous aud uninterrupted, but not necessarily constant. It is necesaarily an irregular use, dependiug upon season and rainfall, and it is sufficient if the use be the ordinary use aud be resorted to without interruptiou whenever necessary in the operation of the power. Cornwell Mfg. Co. vs Swift, 89 Mich- 503. The ordinary use must be determined by the ordinary season. Fluctuation In the height of the water caused either by extraordinary rainfalls or freshets would not enlarge the right nor would fluctuation caused by umienal drouths diminish the right. Allen vs Thoruappte Electric Co., 144 Mich., 370; Johnson vsBoorman, f>3 Win., 2»>8. The defendant failed to show by a pre ponderance of the evidence that he was not flowing complainant's land to a greater extent than it had previously been flowed each year for lo consecutive years with the ordinary seasons, and the complainant iu our opinion, did prove, by a preponderance of the evidence, that Ids lands were flowed throughout the year to a greater extent than they ever had been during the ordinary seasons and that the water has been raised twenty inches above its usual height. In view of the limited extent of the injury and the number affected who have right to complain, its character, the comparative values of the properties and other considerations presented by the record, we agree with the Circuit Judge that a decree for such damages as complainant has aud will iu the future suffer iu consequence of defendant's acts would be more appropriate to this case than a decree to lower the dam or permanately remove rhsh-boards, We also agree that complainants damages were considerably over estimated by him, both in his bill of complaint and in his testimony, and that there is no satisfactory basis in this record for determining the amount of such damages. Under the circumstances, we think it best to remand the record to the Circuit Court for the taking of further testimony na to complainant's permanent damages, unless defendant prefers to reduce the ponding capacity of the dam, by removal of flash boards, twenty inches in which event complainants damages will be the rental value of the lands wrongfully overflowed and injured by such overflow for the period defendant has overflowed them, and a decree will be entered in the Circuit Court as tiie case may then appear." From th« foregoing opinion of the Court I think it clearly appears that the Court expected that Mr. Reason's damage to his land by thrt excessive flow i ay would he assessed by tee Court in said cause and paid and that thu por.d would not be lowered.

He tried a case in which a mau was Indicted for robbery at the house of a poor widow. The first witness was the young daughter of the widow, who ldeutitled the prisoner as the man who had entered the house and smashed her mother's chest. "Do you say that the prisoner at the bar broke your mother's chest?" said the judge iu astonishment. "He did, my lord," answered the girl. "He jumped on it till he smashed it entirely." The judge turned to the crown counsel and said: "How is this? Why Is not the prisoner indicted for murder? If he smashed this poor woman's chest in the way the witness has described, he must surely have killed her." "But, my lord," said the counsel, "It was a wooden chest."—Cornhlll Magazine.

Sixteenth century children in England ate very different food from that eonsrjmed by modern American youngsters. The following dietary is taken from tbe Northumberland Household Book, showing the nursery breakfasts at the boginniug of the sixteenth century: "This is the Ordre of Braikfastis for the Nuroy for my Lady Margaret and Maister Ingeram Percy every dn£ in the week In Lent: Item, n Manchet [a small loaf of white bread], a Qunrte of Bere, n Dyseb of Butter, a Fece of Saltfisch, a Dyseb of Sproitts or ii.i White Herring, Braikfastis of Flcsch dayly thorowto tbe Yere; Item, a Manchet, n Quarte of Bere and iij Muton Bonys boiled.

Chip MeGuire, a 16-year-old girl living at Tim'8 place in the Maine wooda is Sid by her father to Peto Bolduc, a Jf-breed. She runs away and reaches the camp of Martin Friable, occupied by Martin, Ala wife, nephew, Raymond Stetson, and guides. She telle her story and Is cared for by Mrs. Prisbie. Journey of Friable'sjparty into woods to visit father of Mrs. Friable, an old hermit, who has resided in the wilderness for many years. When camp Is broken Chip and Hay occupy same canoe. C H A P T E R 111.—-Continued. A more serious subject was under 'discussion in the other canoe, meantime, as to the future disposition of Chip herself. "I feel it my duty to take care of fcer," Angle said, after relating her conversation with Chip and that morning's incident. "She is a homeless, outcast waif, needing education and everything else to Christianize her. We must bring her to the settlement, "but to turn her adrift might mean leaving her to a life of vice, even if she ^escapes her brutal father and this worse half-breed. Then, again, I am not sure that her parentage will bear inspection. She has told me something about her earlier life, and about her mother, who evidently loved her. One course only seems plain to me,— to take care of and educate this unfortunate." "We must take the girl back with us and begin her reformation at the camp. If she shows any aptitude and willingness to obey, wo will take her to Greenvale. If not, you must arrange to get her into some institution." "And suppose the half-breed finds where she is, what then?" inquired Martin. "What, do you stiy, Levi?" ho added, turning to his guide, "you know this fellow; what will he be apt to do?" "I s'pose you know what, a panther'il do, robbed of her cub," Levi answered, "an' how a bull moose acts in runnin' time, mebbe. Wal, this Pete is worse'n /both on 'em biled into one, I callate. If you're pain' ter take the gal back, you've got to keep her shady, or some day you'll find her missin'. Besides, Pe,te, ez I told ye, don't know the meanin' o' law and is handy with a gun. But Martin did not quite share Levi's fears, and so Angie's decision was agreed to. Levi's advice to "keep shady" was accepted, however, and all through that summer's somewhat thrilling experiences it was the rule of conduct. When supper was over came the lounging beside the cheerful fire, and ns the shadows thickened, forth came Ray's banjo once more, and with it the light, of admiration in Chip's eyes. All that day he had been her charming companion; his open, manly face, his bright brown eyes, had been ever before her. His well-bred ways, so unlike, all the men at Tim's Place, had impressed her as those of a youth of 18 will a maid of 16; and now, with his voice appealing to the best in her, he seemed like Pan of old, once more wooing a nymph with his pipes. No knowledge of this was hers, no conciousness of why she was happy years of isolation and a funny-aack and. red-shirt garb bad not obliterated lUe deepest instinct of woman. To Levi, Martin's woodwlse helper, was left the selection of fittings for the new camp. A couple of husky Canucks were engaged to bring them in In a bateau, and then the party started on its return. Only one incident of importance occurred during the wait at this village known as Grindstone. Angle and Chip had juBt left the only store there, in front of which a group of log-drivers had congregated, when Angle, glancing back, saw that one of the group was following them. She quickened her pace, and so did be, until just as they turned into a side street, he passed them, halted, and turned about. "Wal, I'm damned if tain't Chip, an' dressed like a leddy," he exclaimed, as they drew near. "Hullo, Chip," he added, as they passed, "when did you strike luck?" Chip made no response and he muttered again, "Wal, I'm damned, jest like a leddy!" It was annoying, especially to Angle, and neither of the two realized how soon this blunt log-driver's discovery would reach Tim's Place. And now, leaving the bateau to follow, the party started once more on their journey Into the wilderness. No sight or sign of pursuit from the halfbreed had been thus far observed. A few idle lumbermen in the village— the only visible connection between the vast forest and a busy world— were little thought of, as their canoes crept slowly up the narrowing river and gave no hint of interference from this low bi-ute to anyone except Levi. He, however, seldom speaking, but ever acting, kept watch and ward continually. At every bend of the stream his eyes were alert to catch the first sight of a down-coming canoe in time to conceal Chip, as he decided must be done. When night camps were made, a site at the head of the lagoon or up some tributary stream was selected, and while not even hinting his reason for this, he felt it wise. As came to her. She knew what spites were; hut the god Pnn and Apollo \' with his harp were unknown forms. , , , . . , „ , , , , ^ Neither did she realize that born in \ w e rP K o i n t o b u t l d a c a m p n n o t h e r her soul that, day, on the broad shin- "They Are Thot," He Returned. they drew near to Tim's Place, it began to occur to Martin that Chip's presence had best be concealed \intil that point was passed. He also desired to learn the situation there. He had always halted at this clearing in all his up-river journeys, so far, usually to buy pork and potatoes, and he now intended to do so again. He also felt it imperative to conceal Chip in Ray's canoe, before they reached Tim's Place, and let, Ray paddle slowly .on while the halt, was made. But. Levi dissented, " 'Tain't best," he said, "to let Tim know there's two canoes of us and one not'stoppin'. It'll make him s'picious n' suthin', 'n' what he 'spects, Pete'll nnd out. I callate we'd best pass thar in the night, leave the wimmen above, 'n' you 'n' I go back 'n\ git what we want." "But what about the Canucks following us with the bateau?" returned Martin. "They'll tell who is with us, won't, they?" "They didn't see us start," answered Levi, " 'n' can't swear winrmen came. ;yVe'll say we're alone, 'n' bein* so'll make it plausible, V you might say ing river, was a magic impulse woven out of her heart throbs, and destined to mete out to her more sorrow than all else in her life combined. She had entered the wondrous vale -of love whose paths are flower-strewn, whose shores are rippled with laughter, and whose borders, alas! are ever hid in the midst of tears. season fetch our wimmen in." "But how about our men, on the return trip, after finding we have women at the" camp?" rejoined Martin. "We've got to keep the wimmen shady, an' fool em," answered Levi. And so his plan was adopted. "They will be sure to tell all they know on Ihe way back." It was in the early hours of morning when the two canoes crept, noiselessly papt. Tim's Place. The stars barely outlined the river's course, the frame dwelling, log cabin, and stump-dotted slope back of them. All the untidftapM Lher troubles touched a responsive existent about this dwelling wag Md'f chord in his heart, and on the instant unfortunate condition found her Tim and all bit family matt be awakened. Her recent escape from this spot and all the reasons forcing it, the fear that both her father and the half-breed might even now be there, added dread; and not until a bend hid even the shadowy, view of this plague spot did she -breathe easier. "I was nigh skeered to death," she whispered to Ray when safety seemed assured, "an' If ever Pete finds I'm u i whar the folks Is goln', I'm a goner." "Ob, we'll take care of you," returned that boy, with the boundless confidence of youth; "my uncle can shoot as well as anyone, and then Old Cy is up at the camp, and he's a wonder with a rifle. Why, I've seen him hit a crow a half-mile off!" Smoke was ascending from the chimney, and the rising sun was just visible when Martin and Levi returned to Tim's. Mike was out in an enclosure, milking; Tim was back of the houBe, preparing the pigs' breakfast. The pigs were squealing, and a group of unwashed children were" watching operations, when Martin appeared. A pleasant "Good morning" from him and a gruff one from Tim was the introduction, and then that stolid pioneer started for the sty. Not evejn the unusual event of a caller could hinder him from the one duty he most enjoyed,— the care of his beloved swine.* "You have some nice thrifty pigs," began Martin, when the pen was reached, desiring to placate Tim. "They are thot." he returned. "My guide and I are on our way into the woods, to build a camp," continued Martin, anxious to have his errand over with, "and we halted to buy a few potatoes of you and some pork. I have a couple of men following with a bateau," he continued, after pausing for a reply which did not come; "they will be along fn a day or two with most of our supplies; but I felt sure I could get some extra good pork of you and some choice potatoes." "You kin that same," replied Tim, his demeanor obviously softening under this flattery, and so business relations were established. Martin had intended asking some cautious question regarding Chip or her father; but Tim's surly face, his unresponsive manner, and a mistrust of its wisdom prevented. He was blunt of speech, almost to the verge of insolence, and the arrival of Martin with all his polite words evoked not a vestige of welcome; and yet back of those keen gray eyes of his a deal of cunning might lurk, thought Martin. Two slovenly women peered out of back door and window while the interview was in progress. Mike came and looked on in silence; two of the oldest children were down by the canoe where Levi waited; the rest, openeyed and astonished, seemed likely to be trodden on by some one each moment. When the stores were secured and paid for, and Martin had pushed off with Levi, he realized something of the life Chip must have led there. He had intended not only to obtain potatoes, but some information of value. He obtained the goods, paying a thrifty price, also a good bit of cold shoulder, and that was all. But Levi, shrewd woodsman that he was, fared better. "I larned Chip's gone off with old MeGuire," he asserted with a quiet smile when they were well away, "an* that Pete's swearin'murder agin him." "And how?" responded Martin, in astonishment. "I felt that silence was golden with that surly chap, and didn't ask a question." "I'm glad," rejoined Levi. "I wanted to tell you not. to, and I've larned all we want. Children are easy to pump, an' I did it 'thout wakin' a hint o' 'spicion. Tim/s folks all believe Chip's gone with her dad. Pete thinks so, an' is watchin' for him with a gun, I 'spect, an' if so, the sooner they meet, the better." It was gratifying news to Martin, and when the other canoe was reached, the two again pushed on, with Martin, at least, feeling that the ways of Fate might prove acceptable. Three days more were consumed in reaching the lake now owned by him, for the river was low, carries had to be made around two rapids, and when at last, the sequestered, forest-bordered sheet of water was being crossed, Martin wished some titanic hand might raise an impassable barrier about his possessions. Old Cy's joy at. their return was almost hilarious. To a man long past the spasmodic exuberance of youth, loving nature and the wild as few do, the six months here with the misanthropic old hermit, then a month of moro cheerful companionship, followed by the departure of Martin and Angle, made the forest home-coming doubly welcome. But. Chip's appearance, and the somewhat thrilling episode of her escape from Tim's Place and her rescue, astonished him. Like all old men who are childless, a young girl and X m\ '^J® K*r "--iif*lt;'. Hart spites were * reality J& the wood*' ,. he bad s w hundred* of them. It was not long ere he had won her confidence and good-will, as he had Bay % and then he took Martin aside. *Tbat gal's chaser's bin < here "boat a week ago," be sard, "on' the worstlookm* cuss I ever seen. I know from his description 'twas him. He kept qulxzin' me ez to how long we'd been here, if I knew MeGuire, or had seen him lately,.until I got sorter riled 'n' began to string him. I told him final' ly that I'd been foolin' all 'long; that MeGuire was a friend o' mine; that he'd been here a day or two afore, borrowed some money 'n' lit out fer Canada, knowin' there was a bad man arter him. Then this one-eyed gaaoo got mad, real mad, 'n' said things, an' then he cleared out." When Martin explained the situation, as he now did, Old Cy chuckled. " 'Tain't often one shoot3 in the dark n' makes a bull's-eye," he said. "I think you and I had better keep mum about this half-breed's call," Martin added quietly, "'and if Angle mentions it, you needn't say that you know who he was. It will only make my wife and the girl nervous." The two tents were now pitched at the head of a cove; some rods away from the hermit's hat, and well out of sight from the landing, and to these both Angle and Chip were assured they must flee as soon as the expected bateau entered the lake, and remain secluded until it had departed. in a way, it was a ticklish situation. All knowledge that this waif was with Martin's party must be kept from Tim's Place and this half-breed, or she wouldn't be safe an hour; and until the Canucks had come and gone, she must be kept hidden. Another and quite a serious annoyance to Martin was the fact that he had counted on thesj two men as helpers in cutting and hauling logs for this new camp. Only man-power was available, an4 to move logs a foot in diameter and 20 feet long, in midsummer, was no easy task; but Levi, more experienced in camp-beUdlng, made fight of it. "We'll cut the logs we need, clus to the lake." he said, "float 'em 'round, 'n' roll 'em up on skids. It's easy nough, 'n' we> don't need them Canuckers round a minit." It was four days of keen suspense to Chip before they appeared. Neither she nor Angle left the closed tent while they remained over night, or until they had been gone many hours, and then every one felt easier. The ringing sound of axes now began to echo over the rippled lake, logs were towed across with canoes, a cellar under the new cabin site was excavated, and home-building In the wilderness went merrily on. While the men worked. Angle and ('hip were not idle. Not only did they have meals to prepare over a rude outdoor fireplace, but they gathered graBS and moss for beds, wove a hammock and rustic chair seats out of sedge grass, tuid countless other useful aids. Chip was especially helpful and more grateful than a (log for any and all consideration. Not a step that she could take or a bit of work that she could do was left to Angle; her interest and do-all-she-could desire never flagged, and from early morn until the supper dishes were washed and wiped, Chip was busy. But Martin, and especially Levi, had other causes for worry than those which camp-building entailed. The fact that this "Pernicious Pete," as Anglo had once called him, would soon learn of their presence here, and hating all law-abiding people, as such forest brigands always do, would naturally seek to injure them, was one cause. Then, there were so many ways by which he could do harm. A fire started at one corner of the hut at midnight, the same Indian-like malice applied to their two tents, the stealing of their canoeB or the gashing of them with a hunting-knife, and countless other methods of venting spite, presented themselves. In a way, they were helpless against such a night-prow ling enemy. Over one hurdred miles separated them from civilization and all assistance; an impassable wilderness lay between. The stream and their canoes were the only means of egress. These valuable craft were left out of sight and sound each night, on the lake shore, and so their vulnerability on all sides was manifest.

New Augusta, Miss.— The first case on record in this state of a dog making its own will, and of ft being offered for probate, is reported here. Fifteea years ago "Doc" McAllister, the largest planter in this section, died, leaving a pet hound. In his will he set aside $260 for the care of the dog until death. Ford McAllister, the eldest son of the deceased, was given control. "Tobe," the hound, died recently, leaving numerous progeny, of which young McAllister is veTy fond. Desiring to preserve the bequest for the benefit of the pups, when the old hound was attacked by sicknebs, the boy drew up a* will in proper form, witnessed by two cltltens, and placing a pen between the elaws of the. aged dog, the animal made ita, Croat mark.

Said to Promptly Ov«rcome Kidney and Bladder Afflictions—Shake Simple Ingredients Wall In Bottle. Mix the following by snaking veil in a bottle, and take in teaspoonful doses after meals and at bedtime: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. A prominent physician is the authority that these simple, harmless Ingredients can be obtained at nominal cost from any druggist even In the smaller towns. The mixture is said to cleanse and strengthen the clogged and inactive Kidneys, "overcoming Backache, Bladder weakness and Uriuary trouble of all kinds, if taken before the stage of Hright's disease. Those who have tried this say it positively overcomes pain in the back, clears tlie uflue of sediment and regulates urination, especially at tnight, curing even the worst forms of bladder weakness. Every man or woman here who feelB that the kidneys are not strong or acting in a healthy manner should mix this prescription at home and give it a trial, ay it is said to do wonders for many persons. The Scranton (Pa.) Times was first to print this remarkable prescription, in October, cf 1906, since when all the leading newspapers of New York, BOBton, Philadelphia, Pittsburg and other cities have made many announcements of it to their readers. Mrs. Mary Crumlish of » 8 0 West Third Street, Wilmington, D e l , says: "Some years ago I began to feel weak and miserable and one day awoke from a nap with a piercing pain in my back t h a t m a d e m e scream. For two days I could not move and after that" I bad backache and dlazy spells all the time. My anklet swelled and I ran down dreadfully. I was nervous and had awful headaches. I wonder that any medicine could do what Doan's Kidney Pills have done for me.' They cured me four years ago and I have been well ever since." Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co.. Buffalo, N. Y. WILD TRIBE OF POETS. Picturesque People That Are Found In the Philippines. Among the wild tribes to be found in the Philippines are the Bogobos, the most picturesque people in the tropics. Their origin la unknown, and all sorts of opinions have been expressed concerning them. One tale told of them is that their first ancestors were all poets and musicians, and that the dislike for the practical which is always noticeable among them has come down through the generations. Those that have taught among the Bogobos say that given a song or a poem to learn and they will study and dream over it for hours, but give the Bogobo a problem in arithmetic and he immediately becomes ill and wants to go home. Living at Santa Cruz, in the Davao district, is Miss Benedict, a Chicago university woman, who is collecting everything peculiar to the Bogobo. It. has been found that the beadwork done by them Is quite like that of the American Indian, but there is no other likeness in the races beyond that. FAMILY'S SKIN TROUBLE8. Eczema, Heat Rash, and Scalp Affections Afflict Different Members, But Cuticura Cures Them. "My wife had eczema for five or six years. It was on her face and would come and go. We thought we would give the Cuticnra Remedies a trial. We did so and she has never had a sign of eczema for four years. I myself used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment some time ago for falling hair. I now have a very heavy head of hair. We used Cuticura Remedies for our baby, -*who was nearly bald when young. She has very nice hair now. She is very fleshy, and we had so much trouble with heat that we would bathe her with Cuticura Soap and then apply Cuticura Ointment, it would dry the heat up so much quicker than anything else.

The next mall brought him the following reply: "Dear Sir: I think we could accommodate you with rooms, and as for music one of my daughters plays the parlor organ and gittar; another one plays the accordeon and banjo; I play the cornet and fiddle; by wife plays the harmonica and my son the flute. We all sing and if you are good at tenner singing you would fit right in when we get to singing gospel hims evenings, for none of us sings tenner. Or if you plays the base vial we have one right here in the house. If you want music as well as rooms and board we could accommodate you and there would be no extra charge for it. Lippincott's. She Did Not Fear Death. An old lady on her seventy-third birthday once said, "I do not mind getting old, and I do not fear death, but I live in constant fear of paralysis." "For some time I have been wanting to tell you of the great good your wonderful Sloan's Liniment in doing here," writes Mr. James F. Abernethy, of Rutherford College, N. C. "In fact, all your remedies are doing noble work, but your Liniment beats all. In my eight years' experience with medicine I find none to go ahead of it, having tried it in very many cases. I know of one young man, a brick-mason, who suffered from a partial, yes, almost complete, paralysis of one a|jn. I got him to use your Liniment, and now he can do as much work as ever, and he sings your praise every day. I get all to use it I possibly can and know there is great virtue in it. I have helped the%ale of your noble remedies about here greatly, and expect to cause many more to buy them, as I know they can't be beat." A Value.

' V SOME PROPOSED AMENDMENT* TO THE CONSTITUTION, AND PROSPECTS. • • < SOLDIERS* HOME MATTER, Mr. Ullie, of Kent, Makes a Proposal Th«t Wakes Up the Delegates t» the Work Before Them. American theatrical companies are JO tJ&W British provinces. Newcastle will be kept abundantly supplied with soals. The fortune of 13,000,000 left by the '.ate Robert Pinkerton shows that It iometimes is profitable to mind other people's business. There is every reason in the world why the farmer should feel complacent who has a few hundred bushels jt wheat stored away. Europe is getting ahead of us In the balloon Industry only because the war office over there doesn't care what it does with the taxpayers' money. AUfcoegb the steamships are getting awfully fast, even the best of them will carry dining rooms and sleeping apartments for a few decades y e t The substitution of radium as a money metal would be a great convenience for the men who are endeavoring to collect all the coin in the world. Dr. Em 11 Koenig of Berlin says that " Use decay of the entire human race is ^MHninent He should not take so sew w s l y these reports from Pittsburg and New York. "Men who think rise," says a Philadelphia paper. Still quite a number of men glued to street car seats are In a brown study when a tired woman enters and clutches a strap. If the sprightly young collegians were as swift In their studies as they are in their class rushes, remarks the Cleveland Leader, what a wealth of wisdom Ohio would have In a few years! The navy says the army can't shoot, *nd the army Bays the navy has to give vaudeville shows in order to get recruits. It may yet turn out that the militia is the most efficient branch 3f the Bervlce. The claim of Dr. Sewell that most alleged mad dogs are really only suffering from thirst, will not, however, ancourage many philanthropic souls to rush out with a pan of water and offer them a drink. Ernest Thompson Seton, writing In % current magazine on the "Marriage af Animals," remarks casually that domesticity is "notoriously bad for the morals of animals," and cites the dog as a conspicuous example. The Immorality of animals! Heavens and earth! A New Yorker, who Is courting trouble says that bold, high foreheads are not evidences of intellect, because children and women have bolder and higher foreheads than men. When he gets through being scalped by the women he will realize that a bold tongue is no evidence of intellect. Twenty-four millions of dollars is the official estimate of the amount of money expended in Europe this year by Americans touring In automobiles. The baBls of the calculation is that there are 8,000 touring parties, averaging five persons each, spending $10 a day for two months. Great guessing! The will of Henry J. Bryer providing that no grandchild who uses tobacco or intoxicants or frequents saloons before reaching the age of thirty, shall inherit any of the property Is surely a safe and sane document If a man reaches that age without having formed bad habits it is almost a certainty that he never wilL Relievers in woman suffrage and the most scornful disbelievers will unite, unless they were born without humor, in enjoying a social corftedy presented by a recent election in a Bmall town says Youth's Companion. Two worn en were nominated to succeed their hushnnda as members of fhe schorl committee. Some citizens, who <\r not favor women on thojmrcl, norni nated the huabands for reelection. Th' excitement waked up many men wht ha;] not vntrd on school qims:' I:I<H fn years, and with pathetic lnyalt.y t< their sex, they swelled the vote fo: the husbands to overwhelming defer of the wives. The Proposition. The most discussed proposal l a the constitutional convention Is the amendment plan of Delegate Colon C. Llllle, of Kent, not merely because of the method of amendment which it contains, hut because it can be seen to contain solution of s o many of the big problems which are crowding forward for recognition. Initiative-referendum, suffrage, prohibition, govern* ment ownership, are all held, according to thoughtful members of the con- , ventioa, within the compass of the Llllle proposal for amending the revised constitution. It Is hereby proposal: S e c 1. That the following sections be adopted as sections in the revised constitution: Sec. 1. Amendments to this constitution may be made on petition of 25 per cent of the qualified voters of the state to the secretary of state, who shall submit the proposed smendment to the people for their ratification at the next general election, and when so submitted if the proposed amendment receives a majority of all the votes east at that election, it shall become a part and parcel of this constitution. (This section Is new). Sec. 1. The legislature, two-thirds of both houses concurring, may propose amendments and submit them to the people for ratification at a general election, and such proposal shall become part and parcel of the constitution, if they receive a majority of all the votes cast at such election. (This is in the present constitution). The present expectation of the convention is that the Llllle proposal can pass. Strong direct legislationlsts say: "We shall get that if no more," while ultra-conservatives say: "This is the only proposition that looks as if there might be danger of its passage." The referendum plan Is more favored than the initiative. Perhaps three-fourths of the proposals submitted on local government questions contain some referendum provision, and no man has appeared very violently opposed to local referendum principles. The initiative has not appeared by Itself in . local proposals, though localities- are included in the state wide bills. Strange to note, the recall, which is usually mentioned in connection with initiative-referendum plans, has not yet been presented In any proposal. The sum of present opinion seems to be that there will be a measure of referendum conceded in local matters (this apart from general "home rule" provisions), and there will be an initiative in constitutional amendments, unless the tide turns. Stir Up at 8oldiers' Home. It. develops that when Gov. Warner left Grand Rapids suddenly last week, after having a conference with the board of trustees of the Miohigan SoldierB* home, he dropped a few tart remarks about the "posthumous" fund, concerning which he made the trip to Grand Rapids. He told the members of the board that he wished the inmates of the home to be given their full pensions, and that he favored dropping at once the scheme of appropriating all of the pension money exceeding |12 a month. The governor is an ex-offlclo member of the board, and has no vote, but the board understood perfectly from the tone In which the governor made his requests, the precrpitation of his retirement from the scene and his refusal to discuss the matter further, that if the soldiers are not allowed to keep their pension money, some resignations from the soldiers' home board will be asked for. The Deerslayers. It is with fear and misgiving by relatives of hunters that the opening of the deer season is observed in northern Michigan, and there are thousands of hunters in the woods. The record of past seasons Indicates that along with from ten to fifteen thousand deer, a number of hunters win be slain. The law which makes the act of kiling a fellow hunter manslaughter has been tried and found wanting. The recent killing of John C. Kruse, a prominent mining man, near Iron Mountain, was a typical fatality. He was slain by a companion who started with him on the trail of three bears. In this case the marksman was an expert hunter. Henry Allman, of Charlotte, who pleaded guilty to burning the barn of a neighbor, was Rent to Iostia I4jr two years. c^fi*!

SYNOPSIS. Chip sfoGuire, & W-year-old girl living at Tim's place In the Maine woods is sold by her father to Pete Bolduc, a half-breed. She runs away and reaches the camp of Martin Friable, occupied by Martin., his wife, nephew, Raymond Stetson, and guides. She tells her story and Is eared for by Mrs. Frisble. Journey of FrUWe'a party into woods to visit father •f Mrs. FTtsbte. an old hermit, who has resided in the wilderness for many years. When camp is broken Chip and Hay occupy same canoe. The party reach camp of Mrs. Friable*a father and are welcomed by hi** and Cy talker, an old friend and former townsman of the hermit. They settle down for summer's stay. CHAPTER IV—Continued. - Then, Chip's presence was an added danger. If once this brute found that she was here, there was no limit to what he would do to secure her and take revenge. They had smuggled her '.east Tim> Place, hut concealment here was impossible; If ever this halfbreed returned; she would be discovered, and then what? An so by day, while Martin and Levi were busy with hut-building, or beside the evening camp-fire when Ray nicked his banjo and Chip watched him-with admiring glances, these two guardians had eyes and ears ever alert for this expected enemy. CHAPTER V. There were three people at Birch Camp,—aa Angie had christened it,— namely, herself, Ray, and Chip, who did not share Martin's suspicion of danger. A firm •belle! that a woman's atd in such a complication was of no value, coupled with a desire to save her anxiety, had kept his lips closed as to the situation. Life here at all hourB soon settled itaeif into a certain daily routine of work, amusement, and, on Chip's part, of Btudy. True to her philanthropic sense of duty toward this waif, Angie had at once set about her much-needed education. A reading and spelling book suitable for a child of eight had been secured at the settlement, and now "lessonB" occupied a few hours of each day. It was only a beginning, of course, and yet with constant reminders as to pronunciation, this was all that Angle could do. The idioms of Tim's Place, with all its profanity, still adhered to Chip's speech. This latter, especially, would now and then crop out in spite of ail admonitions; and so Angie found that her pupil made slow progress. There was also another reason for this. Chip was afraid of her, and oft reproved for her lapses In speech, soon ceased all unnecessary talk when with Angie. But with Ray it was different. He was near her own age, the companionship of youth was theirs, and with him Obiw's »rjeec>was ready enough. This, of course, answered all the purposes of benefit by assimilation, and so Angle was well satisfied that they should be together. Beyond that she had no thought that love might accrue from this association. Chip, while fair of face and form, and at a sentimental age, was .so erode of speech, so grossly ignorant, and so allied to the ways and manners of Tim's Place, that, according to Angle's reasoning, Ray's feelings were safe enough. He was well bred and refined, a happy, natural boy now verging upon manhood. In Qreenvale he had never shown much interest in girl's society, and while he now showed a playmate enjoyment of Chip's company, that was all that was likeiy to happen, But the winged god wots not of speech or manners. At youth of, 18 and i maM of 16 are the same the worM Jilts? and so* out 'of sight of suspected by her, the •Interest went on. ,t a glorious golden sumopportunity these two had! , * Back of the camp and tending northwtest to southeast was a low ridge of Mtoropping slate, bare in spots—a fcog-DAck, in wilderness phrase. Beyond this lay a mile-long "blow-down," what* a tornado had levelled the tall ftttl'CA 1ft. svjutfac , left tte crisscross cooftwton of <*»"•* W * »*f*«TTT» f * * * * * M M * f»Uow«3«£i&/a*« apy^JMe laWWs berries weft ripaniac 4B Ihaitlss* araf «f%rr ffdr day Ray and Chip bjste h W*><to eat, to hear the! ^r^ftjtojjat^er flowers and be They watched the rippled laks with now and then a deer upon its fibres, from this ridge; they climbed up or down it, hand in hand; they fished In the lake or canoed about It, time and again; and many a summer evening, when the moon served, Chip handled the paddle, while Ray picked his banjo and sang his darky, songs all around this placid sheet of water. And what a wondrous charm this combination of moonlight on the lake and love songs softened and made tender by the still water held for Chip! As those melodies had done on that first evening beside the campfire, so now they filled her soul with a strange, new-bom, and wonderful sense of joy and gladness, Tim black forest enclosing them now was sombre and silent. Spites still lurked in its depths and doubtless were watching;. but a protector was near, bis arm was strong; back at the landing were kind friends, and the undulating path of silvered light, the round, smiling orb above, the twinkling stars, and this matchless music became a new wonder-world to her. Her eyes glistened and grew tender with pathos. She had no more idea than a child why she was happy. Bach day sped by on wings of wind, each hour, with her one best companion, the most joyful, and so, day by day. poor Chip learned the sad lesson of loving. But never a word or hint of this fed from her lips. Ray was BO far above her and such a young hero, that she, a homeless outcast, tainted by the filth and service of Tim's Place, could only look to him as she did to the moon. Not for one instant did he realise the growing independence and self-reliance of this wilderness waif, or how the first feeline that ghc was a burden upon these kind people would chafe and vex her defiant nature, until she would scorn even love, to escape it. Just now the tender Impulse of love was all Ray felt or considered. This girl of sweet sixteen and utter confidence in him was so enthralling in spite of her crude speech and lack of education, her kisses were so much his to take whenever chance offered, and hiinEelf such a young hero in her I * * • * A Spying Enemy 8tood and Watched Thsm. sight, that he thought of naught else. In this, or at least so far as his reasoning went, they were like two grown-up children entering a new world—the enchanted garden of love. Or like two souls merged Into one in impulse, yet in no wise conscious why or for what all-wise purpose. For them alone the sun shone, birds sang, leaves rustled, flowers bloomed, and the blue lake rippled. For them alone was all this charming chance given, with all that, made it entrancing. For them alone was life, love, and lips that met in ecstasy. Oh, wondrous beautitude! Oh, heaven-born joy! Oh, divine illusion that builds the world anew, and building thus, believes its secret safe! But Old Cy, wise old observer of all things human, from the natural attraction of two children to the philosophy of cpntent, saw and understood. Not for worlds would he hint this to Angle or Martin. Full well he knew how soon this "weavin' o' the threads o' affection," would be frowned upon by them; but he loved children as few men do. This summer-day budding of romance would end in a ftiW these two were happy now remain so, and perhaps in Chrp*s it might prove the one best incentiveto her own Improvement. And now as he watched them day by day, came another feeling. Hosss> less all his life so far, and for many years a wanderer, these two h|h§ sisaMtf. aa eoafil only hsip thsm to{ one i*Hfl» futara, and to that end had purpose h# -now b#nt-%i» thought. It * a s midsummer when Martin'and his: party returned to the lake with Chip. In' two weeks the new tog cabin—a large one, divided into three compartments—was erected and ready for occupation. Working as all the men had done from dawn until dark to complete this Cabin, no recreation had been taken by anyone except Ray and Chip; and now Martin, a keen sportsman, felt that his turn had come. The trout were rising night and morn all over the lake, partridges so tame that they would scarce fly were as plenty as sparrows, a half-dozen deer could be seen any time along the lake shore—in fact, one had already furnished them venison—and so Martin now anticipated some relaxation and sport But Fate willed otherwise. One of Old Cy's first and most, farsighted bits of work, after being left with the hermit the previous autumn, had been the erection of an ice-house out of large saplings. It stood at the foot of a high bank on the north of the - knoll and close to the lake, and here, out of the sunshine, yet handy to fill, stood his creation. Its double walls of poles were stuffed with moss, its roof chinked- with blue clay, a sliding door gave ingress, and even now, with summer almost gone, an ample supply of ice remained In it.. In the division of .duties among these campers, Levi usually started the morning fire while Old Cy visited the ice-house for anything needed. One, morning after the new cabin was completed, he came here as usual. A fine string of trout caught by Martin and Ray the day before were hanging in this ice-house, and securing what was needed, Old Cy closed the door and turned away. As usual with him, he glanced up and down the narrow beach to see if a deer had wandered asking there that morning, and In doing so he now saw, close to the water's edge and distinctly outlined'in the damp sand, the print of a moccasined foot. It was of extra large size, and as Old Cy bent over it, he saw it had recently been made. Glancing along toward the head of this cove, he saw more tracks, and two rods away, the sharp furrow of a canoe prow in the sand. "It's that pesky half-breed, sure's a gun," he muttered, stooping over the track, "fer a good bit o' his legs was turned up to walk on, and he wore moccasins t'other day." Curious now, and somewhat startled, he looked along where the narrow beach curved out and around to the landing, and saw the tracks led that way. Then picking his way so as not to obscure them, he followed until not three rods from the new cabin they left the beach and were plainly visible behind a couple of spruces, in the soft carpet of needles, which was crushed for a small space, where some one had stood. Returning to camp, Old Cy motioned to Levi and Martin. All three returned to the ice-house, looked where the canoe had cut its furrow, took up the trail to its ending beside the two trees, and then glanced into one another's eyes with serious, sober, troubled faces. And well they might; for the evening previous they had all been grouped upon the piazza of this new cabin until late, while scarce three rods away a spying enemy, presumably this halfbreed, had stood and watched them. CHAPTER VI. An enemy we can meet in the open need not appall us; but an enemy who creeps up to us by day, or still worse by night, In a vast wilderness, becomes a panther and an Indian combined. Such a one had spied upon Martin's camp that night, and all the tales of this half-breed's cunning and fierce nature, told by Levi, were now rer called. Like a human brute whose fangs were tobacco-stained, >whose one evil eye glared at thefn out of darkness, the half-breed had now become a creeping, crawling beast, Impossible to trail, yet certain to bide his time, seize Chip, or avenge her loss upon her protectors. Now another complication arose as Martin, Old Cy, and Levi left the spot where this enemy had watched them —what to do about Angie and the girl? From the first warning from Levi that they were in danger from the half-breed, Martin had avoided all hint of it to them. Now they must be told, and all peace of mind at once destroyed. Concealment was no longer possible, however, and when Angie was told, her face paled. Her first intuition, and as the sequel proved, a was for them to at once and quit the woods as apeedttjr aa possible. • Pwt Martin was of different fibre. To run away like this was cowardly, and besides he cherished only contempt for a wretch who had played the role of this fellow, and was so vile ef instinct With no desire to do he yet felt tat* if sufficient • • : ml aaCJ&e need of. . ,1hVearar,^sad"espe^D^ this wildernesa iWoaM be waft rid. of sach a desp*eW «*ffture..

He knows every rod q/ the,way out whar we'd be likely to camp. He'd sure follow, an' if he didn't cut our canoes to pieces some night, he'd watch, his chanee V grab the gal 'n' make off under cover o' dsqokn^ssv;, We've got a sort o' human panther to flgger on, an' shootln under such conditions might mean killin' ftf6Hgsi' W e W got to go out sometime), but I don't believe in turning' tail fust go-off, 'n' we may get a chance to wing the cuss, like ez not," and the glitter in Levi's eyes showed he would not hesitate to shoot this half-breed if the chance presented itself. Old Cy's opinion is also worth quoting: "My notion is this hyena's a coward, 'n' like slcfa'll never show himself by daylight He knows we've got guns 'n" know how to use 'em. The camp's as good as a fort. One on us kin alius be on guard daytimes,'an' when it's time to go out—wal, I think we ought to hev curtain' 'nuff 'mongst us to gin one hyena the Blip. Thar's one thing must be done, though, 'n' that is, keep the gal clus. Twon't do to let her go over the hog-back arter berries, or canoein' round the lake no more." And now began a state of semi-siege at Birch camp. Chip was kept an almost prisoner, hardly ever permitted out of Angle's sight. One of the men, always with rifle handy, remained on guard—usually Old Cy, and for a few nights he lay in ambush near the shore, to see if perchance this enemy would steal up .again. With all these precautions against surprise, came a certain feeling of defiance in Martin. With Ray for companion he went fishing once more, and with Levi as pilot he cruised about for game. Only a few weeks of his outing remained, and on sober second thought he didn't mean to let this sneaking enemy spoil those. But Old Cy never relaxed his vigil. This waif of the wilderness and her pitiful position appealed to him even more than to Angle, and true to the nature that had made all Greenvale's children love him, so now did Chip find him a kind and protecting father. With rifle always wits him, he took her canoeing and fishing; sometimes Angie joined them, und so life at Birch camp became pleasant once more. A week or more of happiness was paqped, with no sight of their enemy, and then one morning when Old Cy had journeyed over to the ice-house, he glanced across the lake to a narrow valley through which a stream known as Beaver Brook reached the lake, and far up in this vale, rising above the dense woods, was a faint column of smoke, The morning was damp, cloudy and still—conditions suitable for smokerising, and yet so faint and distant was this that none but the keen, observant eyes of a woodsman would have noticed it. Yet there it was, a thin white pillar, clearly outlined against the dark green of the foliage. Old Cy hurried back, motionel to Levi, and the two watched it from the front of the camp. Martin soon joined them, then Angle and Chip, and all stood and studied this smoke sign. It was almost ludicrous, and yek*ot; for at its foot must be a fire, and beside it, doubtless, the half-breed. "Can you locate It?" queried Martin of his guide, as the delicate column of white slowly faded. "It's purty well ujf'the brook," Levi answered; "thar'sv a sort of Rocky Dundar thar, 'n* probably a cave. I callate If it's him, he's s'pected a storm, "n>feo sneaked to cover." And iiow, as if to prove this, a few drops of rain began to patter on the 'motionless lake; thicker, fasjpr they came, and as the little group hurried to shelter, a torrent almost, descended. For weeks not a drop of rain had fallen here. Each morn the sun had risen in undimmed splendor, to vanish at night, a ball of glorious red. But now a change had come. Wind followed the rain, and all that day the storm raged and roared through the dense forest about The lake was white with driving scud, (he cabin rocked, trees creaked, and outdoor life was impossible. When night camp, it seemed a thousand demons were wailing, moaning, and screeching in the forest, and as the little party now grouped around the open stove in the new cabin watched It, the fire rose and fell In unison with the blasts. (TO BE CONTINUED.) 41:^0 An Explanation. "Fat men are Invariably honest," sald the deep thinker, "and I believe it's because they are so sensitive about their fat." "I don't see what you mean?" "Well, if they should be dishonest, and get caught at it they might have to wear convict suits with the stripes running in the most oncoming becoming way." t MORE THAN HALF OF T H E PA- - T J l N T s V P U P i a < * T T L g ALSO HAS 8EVERAL CASES. /r DISEASE IS SP3&ATJIJK3. Plague Twice WrouaW Havoc in f u - rops—Kiltsd On* Motion P sop Is In Europo~-Fe*ea at Spread to Eastern Cities. The bubonic plague, which was discovered in San Francisco's Chinatown two months ago, has spread so that at the last formal report there were 73 cases, 37 deaths, 17 recoveries^ At Seattle there were half a dozen fatal cases. The San Francisco officials found themselves unable to cope with the situation, and asked the aid of the United States government. They now find it difficult to pay the 930,980 a month necessary to do the city's share of the work, and they want the government to finance that, too. Though only meager reports have ben sent out from San Francisco, it is known that he California authorities have been greatly agitated. It is feared that the epidemic will Bpread to cities farther eaBt For this reason it is contended that the United States government is directly interested and ought to lend its. aid. T h e Bubonic Plague. The Oriental, Levantine or bubonle plague exists in. two principal forms, the mild plague and the severe epidemic plague. It is the latter that Is so virulently fatal. It flourishes most readily in warm, moist climates outside of the tropics, spreading through conditions of poverty, dirt, or bad sanitation. The bacteria are now believed to be carried by the common rat, thus accounting for Its immense spread. LOTS OF CASH. New York Banks Now Able te Heta Crop Moving. Practically all the New York now are sending cash into the and west to facilitate the movement of crops. One large institution, with aevera] thousand correspondents, has sent one-quarter of its resources to help move the cotton crop. Talking with a treasury official In Washington a number of bankers assured him that the financial situation is very noticeably improved. Th*> money stringency is gradually relaxing. The demand on the part of the banks for additional circulation continues unabated and the amounts already shipped from Washington having a marked influence in relieving the present stringency. The fact that practically $60,000,000 in currency disappeared^rom the New York banks within a week is considered sufficient evidence that the New York hankB are doing their best to meet the great demands upon them. While the treasury department has not decided as yet to undertake any criminal prosecutions in connection with the original causes of the money trouble, it is declare* that the tw< men they are said to be investigating especially were officers, one in each of the Mercantile and National Bos* of America. Kaiser Wants to See Tsft. Emperor William will see Secretary Taft in Osborne house, Isle of Wlgh', during the former's visit to England. A messa:«j) conveying this wish was sent through the German embassy at Washington. Taft also will seek an audience of King Edward, as to visit the German emperor on British soil without visiting the king might be re garded as discourteous. So much has been said about Mr. Taft planning to see the emperor that some of the other governments have seemingly become curious as to what is up, if anything. Ambassadors Bryce and Jusserand, it is said, already have made inquiries in Washington, and it Is asserted that there is a feeling at the foreign offices of London and Parts that Mr. Taft would be slighting King Edward and President Fallleres if he does not ask to see them on his way home, or If he stopped only in St. Petersburg and Berlin. While there, Secretary Taft will be given a dinner by Ambassador Tower, at which he will meet Chancellor von Buelow, Gen. von Moltke and Foreign Secretary von Schoen. On the Isle of Wight the kaiser will give a dinner •r luncheon in his honor. Picture of Washington. Through the Instrumentality of Hon. A. W. Austin, United States consul at Glasgow, a portrait, supposed to be that of George Washington, and possibly the first extant, will shortly be brought to this country and hung upon the walls at Mount Vernon. The announcement of the loan was made Friday at the meeting of the local society at the home of Mrs. Orla B. Taylor, by the state regent, Mrs. EB. A. Rathbcne, of this city. The picture in question hangs in the People's palace in Glasgow, under the title "Unknown." The story goes that It was the property of Hon. Robert Pinwiddie, at one time a colonial governor of Virginia, and that when he returned to Scotland he took it with him. * * • • t.*. •» " *! •»4-f"i • • * > $ i j . * : . & & • .•'1..VT • 7"» 1- p. ipqfmw'iRji HPyV^IW i r # V V..'. : > • -i ' *4 -i . ti. ft! ri k•. :1t * ? rt X r Jl !

Even the most careless reader In these days must have noticed the renewed and even lively interest in the subject of canals, which, so far as they are projected, surpass in extent and importance even those schemes for canalization which a century ago fired the imagination of everyone who had the prosperity of the nation at heart. Throughout the •country waterway improvement schemes are being prosecuted with more earnestness than ever, and some Idea of their extent may be gained by the simple statement that the schemes for these improvements already approved by the federal government engineers represent an outlay of $500, 000,000. It has become plain, especially to those business men who have to ship freight, that at present the railroads are unequal to the task. In tile northwest the great lakes, forming a natural outlet for transportation, are being more and more utilised. Generally speaking the country is well watered, and consequently better waterway transportation may be said to be a potentiality. But all the •water courses in the United States are not naturally fit for the traffic. They must be made fit, and this, in moat oases, is a simple matter of expenditure. President Roosevelt has given his approval to the schemes of the middle west to make the Mississippi a deep water route from St. Louis to the gulf. This will cost, simply to .start the plan effectively, $100,000,000. But those who know the valu^ of water transportation do not hesitate to eay that it is worth it. New York ; i s spending more than that amount to resuscitate the Erie canal which, by 'the way, 50 years ago, was said to be ..responsible for the commercial degeneracy of Philadelphia. A canal is being cut through the isthmus which connects Cape Cod with the mainland. This will bring Boston 74 miles nearer New York, to say nothing of the elimination of a route through Nantucket sound, which is dreaded because of its dangerous shoals. Within three years, It is expected, this canal will be ready for the passage of coastwise vessels, for it is a comparatively simple task. The cutting necessary from buzzard's hay to Cape Cod bay will he about peven miles in length. A regrettable feature of the undertaking is the necessary destruction of the beautiful houses Qi President Cleveland ar.;l of the late Joseph Jefferson. While this scheme i.; designed to eliminate a dangerous route, the proposed .Norfolk-Beaufort Inlet canal farther down the Atlantic coast is intended to make it unaecssary for coastwise ships to venture in the treacherous neighborhood of Cape Hatteras, which has a reputation of being the graveyard of shipping. Valuable as are both these projects, they may be made more far-reaching In their beneficial effects by the coastwise waterway project. The origin of this plan, which to national in scope, is to be found in a meeting which was held at Trenton. The conference at the New Jersey capital had been called for the purpose of advancing Trenton's interest as. a port As the New Jersey city is 40 miles farther from the sea than is Philadelphia, necessarily it cannot become a port without some advantage accruing to the latter. It is of mutual Interest, therefore, that the channel of the Delaware be made such es befits a first-class waterway. The 30-foot channel from the sea to this city, it is said, will be a fact by next June; then an attempt will be made to have It deepened to 35 feet. At present, nothing can be accomplished towards this end, as the government engineers reply, very wisely, thst it must first be demonstrated that a 30-foot channel will hold before money should be spent on a survey for one of 36 feet. Trenton, however, while demenjding a better waterway, has modestly asked for a channel of ten feet depth at low water and 300 feet wide. It will have to be cut through a bar over four miles long, which at present prevents approach to the New Jersey capital to all but bargeH of the shallowest draught. Trenton's manufactures and commerce are constantly increasing, and the railroads appear to be entirely unable to prevent the freight congestion experienced at this point. It was at this conference, to which the Philadelphia congressman and Mayor Reyburn had been invited, that the subject of the Atlantic Beaboard waterways route was first broached. Congressman J. Hampton Moore electrified his audience in the Trenton chamber of commerce when he proposed the scheme. The conference had been called to hear a report on the removal of a sandbar in the river and heard one of the most ambitious and encouraging schemes for waterway improvements that had been proposed for many years. The plan suggested by Congressman Moore for deeper waterways on the Atlantic seaboard is said to offer no especially difficult engineering features. Neither is it believed that it. will require anything like the sum about to be expended on the Mississippi. The waterways, for the great part, are already here. What is needed is improvement. The route of coastal waterways as planned would make possible an entirely safe voyage from Boston to Beaufort Inlet, In North Carolina, for average sized coastwise vessels, for it would be entirely "Inside," thus avoiding the dangerous shoals in Nantucket sound and the treacherous sands off Cape Hatteras. In addition to these advantages, it would materially shorten the distance between many points on the route. Storms, which now necessitate the seeking of shelter, or a run out to sea, would be avoided, thus shortening the time. Freight carrying vessels could make the trip at any time of the year In perfect safety and on schedule time. Delays would seldom occur and cer tainly no more frequently than on railroads. Philadelphia would be a gainer, according to the belief of Mr. Moore, by the adoption of his plan, for it occupies the geographical center of this waterways route.

These letters came to us absolutely without solicitation. We have a great many thousand from people who have been helped or entirely healed by following the suggestions to quit the food or drink which inpy be causing the physical complaints and change to Postum Coffee or Grape-Nuts food. You are not intelligent enough to know the technical reasons why the change makes a change in the cells of the body. Your knowledge, or lack of knowledge, makes not the slightest difference in the facts. You can print from old and worn plates all the cheap books your presses will produce and sell them as best you can, but such acts and your "learned" editorials are but commercial, and seek only "dollars" and much by pretence. When you branch out into food values yon become only ridiculous. Stick to what you know. The field may be small but it is safe. This first letter is from the President of the "Christian Nation", a worthy Christian paper of New York. New York, Oct. 2, 1907. Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., Battle Creek, Mich. Dear Sirs: I am, this morning, in receipt of the enclosed mighty good letter from one of my subscribers, which I forward to you, and which I am sure you will be glad to use. I am personally acquainted with this lady, and know that she has no object in writing, other than to do good. Cordially, John W. Pritchard, Pres. Brooklyn, N. Y., Oct. 1, 1907. Dsar Mr, Pritchard: Noticing Postum Food Coffee advertised each week in your reliable paper, I concluded to try it, and feeling it a duty towards those who may have suffered as I have from indigestion, desire to state what wonderful benefit I have received from Postum although using only a ahort time, and ndt do. I alone realize and appreciate its good effects, but friends remark, "How much I have improved and how well I look", and I tell the facts about Postum every time, for since using it I have not had one attack of indigestion. It is invigorating, healthful; does not affect the ueryes as ordinary coffee, and if properly made, a most delicious drink. Although I Jaave not had much faith in genera) advertising, yet, finding Postum has done BO much better for me than I expected I am more inclined to "Prove all things, hotd fast that which is good." I am so thankful for good .healft that I want it known what a blessing Postum has been to me.

Mexico's Indian Women. The beauty of Indian women Is one of the charmB of Mexico. In the capital, where the Indian has degenerated through poverty and menial service it is less to be remarked than in the smaller towns and in the country. But the beautiful faces.one takes in memory away from Mexico are those of Indian women. Pine eyes are universal, and, what one hardlyisxpects, the features, according to Caucasian standards — broad brows, straight noses, well-formed mouths and chins full but not gross or heavy. The expression is very generally intelligent, and often one is struck, both in Indian men and women, with the nobility and refinement of the countenance. One frequently sees types among the peons that seem to belong to some highly civilized ancient caste —an Egyptian priest of royal blood, a Roman centurian, an Aztec emperor. The women- are gently lovely where they are beautiful, and the men at their best in carriage, in manners and in countenance are strikingly like the very advanced product of civilization. •-Modern Mexico. The Peaceful Cow. She was even more afraid of cows than most girls, so when she spied a placid animal recumbent under a tree, peacefully chewing its cud, she at first refused to go through the pasture at all. Her husband calmed her fears to some extent, and they started by, when the cow slowly commenced to get up, hind legs first, as they always do. At this the little lady Bhrieked with terror, and said: "Oh, Bob, hurry, hurry, he is getting ready to spring at us!"-—Harper's Magazine.

To find an exact parallel for the power of the Turk to defy all forma of suffering we must, go to China and : Japan. It does not detract in the least from bis meriit in this respect to say. what is perfectly true in his case as in that of the Chinese and Japanese, th&t his frapassiveness where pain-producing circumstances are concerned, proceeds in a great measure from insensibility. Ultimately this means the possession of an exceptionally healthy and robust constitution; and health and • strength, which certainly are among the inheritances of the Turk, are'great virtues. The discipline of the Turk does not show in superficial matters. He reserves his salute for fullblown geperals and otherwise behaves towards his superiors with, a sans gene which produces a bad impression on those who are accustomed to connect obedienee with a complicated display of respect. But his submissiveness to those in command is quite extraordinary, though under the present government of Turkey the conditions of his military service have become so intolerable that mutiny has become a frequent occurrence in the imperial army. The wonder is that any discipline at all exists in its midst. The reliant and resourceful, I ehould add that this last quality is characteristic of all the Inhabitants of Turkey, who, in the semibarbarous condition of the courts, ars constantly forced to exercise their wits with great keenness to preserve their late existence. Birds Spread Infection, serious risk of tuberculosis from, birds is alleged by Dr. Tucker of Montreux, who records 33 ss of apparent infection, with other evidence from eminent physicians. The life of caged birds—like canaries, pigeons and parrots—especially favors tuberculous disease, and the fluttering of their wings and the action of ^flies readily convey infection to the family.

The little girl, in the course of one of her many chats with the aged statesman, said: "Tell me, won't you, senator, what political economy is?"

Hospitals and Doctors Could Not Re. lieve Him—But Cuticura Remedies a Speedy, Permanent Cure. "Eczema appeared when our baby was three months old. We applied to several doctors and hospitals, each of which gave us something different every time, but nothing brought relief. At last one of our friends recommended to us Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. A few days afterwards improvement could be noted. Since then we have used nothing but Cutieura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, and now the baby Is six months old and is quite cured. All that we used was one cake of Cuticura Soap and two boxes Cuticura Ointment, costing in all $1.26. C. F. Kara, 343 East 65th Street, New York, March 30, 1906." Worse and Worse.

"Strolling with him In^NevTYork one day we met a young ship-broker. Admiral Walter hailed the young man delightedly. He clapped him on the back, wrung his hand and cried: " 'Congratulations on your marriage, my young friend. No more sewing on of buttons now, eh?' " *No, indeed/ said the Bhip-broker sharply.

Last spring, however, before they arrived, a. sparrow took up her abode in one of the nesta. Shortly after the martins returned as usual, and one day the farm people noticed that the hole of the nest which the sparrow occupied had been blocked up. Next morning a boy climbed up to ascertain the meaning of this, and not finding any outlet broke away part of the nest, to find the poor little sparrow dead on her eggs.
