Saturday's rasalts at CJkicago and Minneapolis deckled this, Michigan has defeated Wisconsin and Chicago* and Minnesota, the only contender, and Michigan's laat opponent of 190¾ has now beaten Wisconsin. In the event of Michigan's victory over Minnesota, the western championship goes to Ann Arbor. On the same day Chicago meets Wisconsin, and should she win she would, with Minnesota defeated, probably claim second place, her victory over Wisconsin putting her on a par in one sense, while the fact that Minnesota], had been twice defeated, once by Nebraska, would be argued against any claim of tie for second. Minnesota, however, If victorious here, will be conceded the championship. Chicago, If defeated, will drop to fourth place. Minnesota's record against Wisconsin is better, in the matter of points, than that made by Michigan. Wisconsin, however, was a weakened team, trained for the Michigan game. She bad passed her best point, and was, in addition, minus Juneau, her captain, and admittedly the star individual performer of the Michigan-Wisconsin game. « The scores bearing on the championship race are: Michigan 6, Wisconsin 0; Minnesota 11, Wisconsin 0; Michigan 21, Chicago 0. Garnkan Say* It. The first three day*" of the trial of 'Senator Nichols for alleged subornation of perjury gave no evidence that he was interested in the case. Friday morning, however, Garmnn, the New York -promoter, told of Nichols visiting him at 20 Broadway, New York, after the Grand Rapids water scandal bad been exposed, and offering him $500 to sign a statement to the effect that he would go on the stand and beatify favorably to Lant K. Saisbury in the latter's trial. Garmnn said he told Nichols that it would be contrary to his testimony before the grand jury, and he did not like to do it. Garraan, however, sign- «* the statement, and Nichols, he alleges, gave him the money. This statement was produced as evi- <dence after long objection by the defetwe. Garman will tell of other transactions with Senator Nichols. ^ The Nichols Trial. The Nichols subornation of perjury <aae commenced In the Circuit Court i» Grand Haven Monday, Judge Padgban presiding. The case was transferred from the Kent Circuit and Vcoadses to be the hardest fought legal contest in the county's history. Senator Nichols arrived from Ionia at noou, accompanied by Adolphus A. El JBs and Royal Hawley. Regent George -A. tVrrr and tfalter I. Lillie, of Grand Haven, are assisting the defense. As- ^sfstant Prosecuting-Attorney Ward and Lesley W. Hyde, of Grand Rapids, are assisted %y Arend Visscher, of Ottawa •eenuty. Attorney Hawley renewed his •action asking that Ward and Hyde be excluded from the case, but Judge Farigham promptly denied it. Our Soldier*. Adjt.-Geu. Brown and Gen. W. T. McGurrin, of the national guard, who were detailed by' Gov. Bliss to attend the recent maneuvers Of the regular army at Fort Riley, have submitted a report of their experience to the commander- in-chief. After discussing the cordial reception which they received and describing the general character of the maneuvers, which they assert is of immense practical benefit, the officers who make the report state that it will be possible for the national guard of the several states to participate in these maneuvers If the Dick bill which, has passed the house of representatives at Washington, becomes a law. In the event of the passage of this bill the general government will unite the national guard and the regular army in these maneuvers. Assaulted the Teacher. Harold K. Righter, who presides over the destinies of the Orinoko district school, brought sftit in Circuit Court to-day against John Ford, father of one of his pupils, claiming $1,000 damages. Plaintiff alleges that as a result of some trouble in school with young Ford, the father called at the school house and thrashed him. The bill of complaint states that Ford made a vicious assault upon the schoolmaster, knocking him down and dragging him about the room until he was badly injured about the "face, eyes, ears, nose, head, back, shoulders, arms, legs and bodyv" Righter claims great injury to health and feelings.

Formal charges were filed in the Ingham Circuit Court Saturday against County Clerk Woodworth. It will be recalled that Woodworth deposited some $2,."K)0 to cover any amount which might be found due from him. This sum bus been appropriated, but there still remains about $1,000 due the county. The petition makes no criminal charge, simply alleging incompetence, misconduct and habitual neglect of duty, and asking that the clerk be removed from office. Judge Wiest made an order citing Woodworth to appear Nov. 24 to answer to the charges. Woodworth says he will be able to explain matters satisfactorily. !s The'Prison Riot. William Lourltn, keeper at the Jackson prison, who aided Foreman Hugh Brennan In the disturbance Saturday, was before the prison board. After an investigation the board ordered Lourim to return to work in the shirt factory. Foreman Brennan is also back at work, but Convicts Wood and French are In their cells, deprived of work and all privileges. The prison board of control has recommended that paroles be granted Prrcy Duncan, sent from 'St. Joseph county in April, 1800, five years, for assault to kill; and James Goodin, Grand Rapids, sent in February, 1892, 20 years, for robbery.

Myers, of Otsego, Mich., hunting deer in Republic, mistook Hank Shouldiers' white horse for a wolf, and fired, the ball striking the animal's head, but not with fatal result Shouldiers was on the horse's back at the time. Myers was arrested, but settled by paying Shouldiers $100. The garnishment proceedings covering the $1,200 alleged to have been paid by Senator Nichols to Frederick Gorman, witness in the Grand Rapids water contract case, have been begun. Attorney William B. Brown is supposed to have the money, and is made garnishee defendant. Brown says he hasn't the money. Edward Harris and George Kelley were found guilty at Grand Rapids of breaking into the Martin postoffice last June and taking money and stamps to the amount of $150, and sentenced to five years each In the Detroit house of correction by Judge Wanty in the United States Court.

The members of the commission frequently interrupted with questions. During Mr. Mitchell's examination by Mr. Wilcox the fact was brought out that if the Increase in wages was granted it would increase the expenses of the companies about $12,000,000 a year. In regard to child labor" Mr. Mitchell said he was in favor of a state law which would make the minimum ago for a boy to go to work at the collieries 14 years instead of 12. He regarded as living wages for a miner not less than $600 a year, and that increased cost of coal was no concern 1 of the miners. Teddy, Jr., Overworked.

There Wa* no song and dance man on the yaudeville stage who set the people so wild as Billy Pepsin and many times did be have to come back and repeat the refrain of his latest sonr before the audience would permit the next aot to be put on. The song seemed particularly to fit the singer. Of ail the light hearted apostle* of careless gaiety, Billy Pepsin was easily the most single hearted and the great audience which sought the theaters where be performed fairly reveled in his reddeaa merriment and thorough abandon. And on this night even more than ' usual he threw himself into the very spirit of his part and with the new song which was aa foolish as it was adaptable to Billy's peculiar atmosphere, ha sent the audience fairly into hysterics. They applauded until they were tired from the very physical exercise and agreed to a man that there never had been anything so funny since the dawn of time and that such a stunt could come only from a man who knew no care and never had no more serious responsibility than to ascertain how be could get a light for hia cigarette. Ah, could that wildly cheering and laughter-convulsed crowd have stepped into Giacomo's Place an hour after the performance closed they would have seen a very different side of the picture. Giacomo (last name forever loat to history), was a smart little Italian possessed of indefatigable persistence and a wife who.could cook with, that divine touch which is given only now and than to the daughters of Eve. It was a shabby little place off an alley, never too clean and almost . impassable in wot weather. Almost, I say advisedly, because it never was impassable to the stage people of the middle type who formed the principal support of Giacomo. This partly because the cooking and the wines were so good—and cheap, for your actor,of any clasa knows what is good and wants li, and perforce his pursestrings forbid.. Sherry^ or Rector's as a steady diet And ,then the place was always open—ai least umty! tba last straggler waa ready to retire.

Well, on the night of which we spoke in opening this sketch an hour after the performance closed at the Lyceum, any one strolling into Giacomo's might have seen nearly the entire party of actors and actresses who had entertained them so hilariously, eating and drinking and quarreling and gossiping before the bar or at the unclothed tables. And apart from all at an obscure little table in a corner sat the one of all the troupe who had inspired the greatest laughter and displayed the greatest abandon—Billy Pepsin. His face was heavy with gloom and the expressive eyes which had flashed so significantly and so wickedly at the audience were dull and introspective. He was eating his chops alone and moodily washing them down from a mug of ale at his elbow. He paid no attention to the sallies of the others who now and then sought to arouse him from the cloud that seemed to envelop him, but sat on alone puffing his pipe after his simple repast was finished. And so he had sat and so acted for many months—months which had now grown into years, aa was recalled by Alphonse Ginaud, who did the wonderful acrobatic act, and who had been associated with Billy for many years off and on. "Too bad, aint It," «ald be tossing a linger toward the solitary figure. "I'd like to see a woman who could do it to me. He never has smiled oft the stage since Sally left him, HI bet the drinks. Anyway, I never saw him." "What's the storyf" Inquired a stranger in, dress suit who was doing the town and had drifted into Giacomo's Place with his party, as he ordered drinks for all at the bar. Alphonse feeling the importance of the situation, sipped his wine thought- -fully and replied: "Well I guess there's no harm in it; everybody knows—and there alnt much to It, anyway. Billy Pepsin, the funniest man in the bis, got dead stuck on a little soubrette, Sally Waters, and married her. ty little piece and fresh from the country. Well, sir, you never saw such lolly-gagging as happened for a year or too. Billy was dean daft and when the little girl came we all thought he would go nug-house. They fixed up a little flat and Billy refused all offers to go out of town—preferred to take half as much and be home. MWell, you know the ways of women— she tired of it and skipped out one day with a Jew manager, who had always had a roll aa big as your leg and wore diamonds that put your eyes out That's all there la to it only that Billy baa never been known to smile since.

But I want to; oh, how I want to, Billy and I will try and make so far as I can." The lanky figure straightened up and there was a smile on his face, such as it is seldom given mortals to see. He held her close to him regardless of the stares of the onlookers. "We'll go back to the flat I have kept it all these years lust aa it was.. I knew you'd come back.

One day in seven should be kept holy from work and sacred to man's primitive paradise of leisure. I am no Puritan pietist or even Sabbatarian in any severe sense, but hold that this is one of the greatest of all human institutions, and that the command to keep it as a day of rest is written in our physiological constitutions. If need be, It may be kept in sleep, man's great restorer. Monday our nerves and brain must be refreshed, and we must start a new weekly rhythm on a higher plane than wo closed the old one. The mental scenery must be changed. The brooder's overtbongbt must have enlarged our plans and given us both momentum and direction. What form the rest cure should take differs perhaps for each person. 1 go to church, but my neighbor should perhaps spend the day In the fields with children, In music, in books, bnt for all there should be peace, tranquility, repose, surcease of worry and relaxation In no land should tba Sabbath be ao hallowed aa la this land of hustle, tension I gad Amerlcanltla.—G.

While the value of a .commercial fertilizer la determined almost exclusively by the amount and form of the nitrogen, potash and phosphoric add which it contains, it does not follow that all soils or crops will respond equally to applications of fertilixers containing those elements because the needs of soils and the requirements of crop* vary. Soils differ in respect to their need for specific elements owing either to their method of formation or to their management and cropping. A sandy soil is usually deficient in all the essential element* of plant food, while a clayey soil usually contains the mineral element* in abundance, particularly potash. On the other hand, a soil very rich in vegetable matter 1* frequently deficient in mineral matter, while a limestone soil is likely to contain considerable proportions of phosphoric add.

It is profitable In more ways than one. Once operated on, capons become the most tractable and peaceable animals imaginable. They do not run nor chase nor fight I will not say that capons while young grow faster or lay on more flesh from a given amount of food than unaltered males of the same age do. As long as the cockerel is young enough so that no energy goes into the reproductive organs, I think their development Is about at an even rate. But there is a change after a time. The development of the organs of reproduction in the male and his growing activity and restlessness consume energy, which in the capon is saved for flesh production. Water comes to a certain degree of heat Only. All the excess above this is utilized for the production of steam. It is the same thing with the rooster. He grows to a certain size or weight and all the surplus energy above this is used for the purpose of reproduction. In other words, the capon will continue to grow and lay on flesh much longer than the unaltered male. It takes a year or more for the capon to come to his full sise and weight but at that ago he is much larger than the rooster of the same age, and several neya were tod active or the „ _ . were too cpploav and I knew irtelt waa wrong, bet bow to right It mystery.

From the Atchison, Kan., Daily Globe:—This is the season when the woman who knows the best remedies for croup is in demand in every neighborhood. One of the most terrible thing in the world is to be awakened in the middle of the night by a whoop from one of the children. The croup remedies are almost as snre to be lost in case of croup, as a revolver is sure to be lost in case of burglars. There used to be an old fashioned remedy for croup, known as hive syrup and tola, but some modern mothers say that (chamberlain's Cough Remedy is better, and does not cost so much. It causes the patient to "throw up the phlegm" quicker, and gives relief in a shorter time. Give this remedy as soon as tue croupy cough appears and it will prevent the attack. It never fails and is pleasant and safe to take For sale by F. A. Sigler. What Is True of the Llqtor Trails In Texas is Troe is Every State* By J. B. Gembrell. The remarkable progress of prohibition in Texas during the last few months is awakening widespread attention. That the great liqnor combine is becoming alarmed for this territory is evedent- The progress of the temperance cause is attributed to "long haired preachers and short hai red women," to fanaticism and everything except the true cause. For one I am quite willing that it may be charged up to preachers, women and the churches' though there are other forces at work sympathetically with these. The present movement is the result of much education. All moral movements have their genesis and their strength is sound education. The great campaign in the eighties was not a final defeat but a postponement. It sowed the seed of moral reform broadcast over our wide territory. Since then the forces have been gathering. The very method of defeat, as it was called, were education. It was revealed that there was a coalition of vicious forces, dangerous, not only to public morals, but dangerous to law and every interest to civilization. Many laid the lesson to heart Many who went wrong fifteen years ago saw by their connections and the methods employed, the degradation and danger in the great liquor combine. The backward look has bad a converting power on them. The agitation of the past had one effect always helpful to the right side. It caused people to look at the saloon. It belonged to the dark and not to the light Its works are such as that secresy is necessary, if it is to live. Hence the screens and the back room. Every agitation of the liquor business makes for prohibition. In a 2 * * * • * • « • » ^^^^We^S^^S, ..' ^"^^^S*W^^m! . * * * ^ S * ^ ^ ^ • * » * " •cheel's prompt Reply.

A few years ago two children were bathing in the sea at a little town on the coast of France when suddenly for some reason or other they were carried out of their depth. In a few moments their cries as they struggled in the deep water aroused attention, but before any one could reach them they were rescued in an altogether unexpected manner. An immense elephant belonging to a traveling circus happened to have been led down to the sea that morning to bathe, and as he was enjoying his bath close at hand he heard the cries of the children. Plunging through the water toward them, he lifted them very gently, one at a time, and carried them to a place of safety^ This elephant, whose name was Gus, recently died at Hereford from the effects of a severe cold. He had reached a great age and was said to be 150 years old.-—Chatterbox. For sick headaches t.v Chamber* tain's Stomach and Liver Tablets; they will v\ardoff the attack it taken in time.

In aa anteroom sits his faithful guardian and confidential man, Mr. Menzies, through whom the aged ^financier must be reached. Mr. Menzies is protected by a partition having a latticed wire top with iron spikes reaching to the ceiling. It would be impossible for a man to climb over these spikes or to throw a bomb between them. Mr. Sage is not always accompanied in the street or in traveling between his home and office by a bodyguard or detective. Frequently he goes about entirely alone and seemingly ia without fear except when in his of* fice.—New York Press. Cared of Piles After 40 Tears.

D. 1886—the same clear air and wind, the same, rarefied freshness, full of faint passing aroma* from the wet earth and, the salt sea and the blossoming gardens. In the city the business of the day waa over; bat at the open doors of many of the ahoprf little groups of apprentices in leather apron* were talking, and on the broad step* of the City Hall a number of grave-looking men were slowly separating after a very satisfactory civic session. They were all noticeable men, but Joris Van Heemskirk specially so. His bulk was so great that it seemed as if he must have been built up; it was too much to expect that he had ever been a baby. He had a fair, ruddy face, and large, firm eyes, and a mouth that was at once strong and sweet And he was also very handsomely dressed. The long, stiff skirts of hia dark-blue coat were lined with satin, his breeches were of black velvet, his ruf-, fies edged with Flemish lace, his shoes clasped with silver^buckles, his cocked hat made of the flnesi beaver. With his head a little forward, and -his-right arm across his back, he walked slowly up Wall street into Broadway, and then took a northwesterly direction towards the river bank. His home was on the outskirts of the city, but not far away; and his face lightened as he approached it - Councillor Van Heemskirk's father had built the house and planted the garden, and he had the Dutch reverence for a good ancestry. Often be sent his thoughts backward to remember how he walked by his father's side, or leaned against his mother's chair, as they told him the tragic tales of the old Barneveldt and the hapless De Witts; or how his young heart glowed to their memories of the dear fatherland, and the proud march of the Batavian republic. "Good evening, Mr. Justice. Good evening, neighbor," and" he stood a minute, with his hands on his garden gate, to bow to Justice Van Gaasbeeck and to Peter Sluyter, who, with their wives, were going to spend an hour or two at Christopher Laer's garden. "Men can bear all things but good days," said Peter Sluyter, when they had gone a dozen yards in silence; "since Van Heemskirk has a seat in the council room, it is a long way to his hat. "Come, now, he was very civil," Sluyter. He bows like a man not used to make a low bow, that is alL" "Well, well, with time, every one gets into his right place. In the city Hall, I may yet put my chair beside his, Van Gaasbeeck." "So say I, Sluyter, and for the present it is all well as it is." This little envious fret of his neighbor lost itself outside Joris Van Heemskirk's home. Within it, all was love and content. Madam Van Heemskirk was a little woman, with clear-cut features, and brown hair drawn backward under a cap of lace very stifly starched. Her tight-fitting dress of blue taffeta was open in front, and looped up behind in order to show an elaborately quilted petticoat of light blue camblet Her white wool stockings were clocked with blue, her" highheeled shoes cut very low, and clasped with small silver buckles. From her trim cap to her trig shoes she was a pleasant and comfortable picture of a happy; domestic woman; smiling, peaceful, and easy to live with. When the last duty of the day was finished, she let her bunch of keys fail with a satisfactory "all done" jingle, that made her Joris look at her with a smile. Then he asked: "Where is Joanna and the liftle one? And Bram should be home ere this." "I am not uneasy, Joris. They were to drink a dish of tea with Madam Semple, and Bram promised to go for them. And, see, they are coming; but Bram is not with them, only the elder." Elder Alexander Semple was a great man in his sphere. He had a reputation both for riches and godliness and was scarcely more respected in the market-place than he waa,in the Middle Kirk. And there was an* old tie between the Semples and the Van Heemskirks—a iie^ola^bacfc to the days when the S&tcV Covenanters and the Netherland Ccitfeeeors clasped hands a* brother* &Mfr "churches under the cross.*1 Then one of the Semples had fled for fife from Scotland to Holland,'lain? been sheltered in the house of a Von Heemskirk; and from generation to generation the friendship had been continued. So there waa much real kindness and very little ceremony between, the families, and the elder met hia friend Joris with a rteaeant "good evening." and at* down in innki ef the biasing legs. mmmmam^m of his father—hit great site, bis oomaani4ag firesence. and winning address, his large eyes, hia deep, sonorous voice and slow speech. With the advent of Bran and Neil the conauitaUjOn ended. , The elder, grumhaag: at the thill res auTxojf jmar. ' Joanna tied onvaer white aproj^And, at a word from -her mother, began to take from the cupboard* yartpus Dutch da|ntlea, andEast Indian Jars of fruite antr sweetmeats, and f case *f cry»tal bottlea/ end aome1 .fine lemons, S>e waa a fair, rosy girl, with a. kind, cheerful facq. a pleasant voice, and a smile .that was at once innocent and bright Her fine light hair yaa rolled high and backward; and JSO one could have imagined a dress more suitable t o her than the trig dart bodice, the quilted skirt, and the white apron she 'wore." , Her father and mother watched her with a loving satisfaction, and Elder Semple was quite sensible of Joanna's presence, and oi what she waa doing. At this point Katherine Van Heemskirk came into the room, and the elder slightly moved his chair - and said. "Come awa', my bonnie lassie, and Tel us hae a look at yop." And Katharine laughingly pushed a stool towards the fire, and sat down between t h e , two men on the hearthstone. She was the daintiest little Dutch maiden that ever latched a shoe—very diminutive, (with a complexion like a sea-shell, great blue eyes, and such a quantity of pale yellow hair that it made light of its ribbon snood, and rippled over her brow and' slender w h i t e neck in bewildering curls. Long before supper was over, Madam Van Heemskirk had discovered that this, night EJlder Semple had a special reason for his call, and when the meal was finished, and the girls gone to their room, she was not astonished to hear him say, "Joris, let us light another pipe. I hae something to speak anent—Sit still, guidewife, we shall want your word on the matter." "On what matter, elder?" "Anent a marriage between my son Neil and your daughter Katherine." The words fell with a sharp distinctness, not unkindly, but as if they were more than common words. They were followed by a marked silence, a silence which in no way disturbed Semple. He knew his friends well, and therefore he expected it. Joris at last said slowly, "For Katherine the marriage would be good, and Lysbet and I would like it. However, we will think a little about it; there is time, and to spare. One should not run on a new road. Say what you think, Lysbet." "Neil is to my mind, when the time comes. But yet the child knows not perfectly her Heidelberg. And there is more; she must learn to manage a house of her own. So in time, I say, it would be a good thing. We have, been long good friends." "We hae been friends for four generations, and we may safely tie the knot tighter now. The land between this place and my place, on the riverside, is your land, Joris. , Give it to Katherine, and I will build the young things a house; and the furnishing and plenishing we'll share between us." . "There/Is mors to a wedding than house Xnd land, elder. A young girl should be wooed before she is married. You know how it is; and Katharine, the little one, she thinks npt of such a thing as love and marriage." "Wha kens what thoughts are under curly locks at seventeen? You'll hae noticed, madam, that Katherine has come mair often than ordinar' to Semple House lately?" "That is so. It was because of Col. Gordon's wife, who likes Katherine. She is teaching her a new stitch in her crewel-work." "Hum—m—m! Mistress Gordon has likewise a nephew, a vera handsome lad. I hae seen that he takes a deal o' interest in the crewel-stitch likewise. And Neil has seen it too— for Neil has set his heart on Katherine— and this afternqpn there was a look passed between the young men 1 dinna like. We'll be haeing a challenge, and twa tools playing at murder, next." "I am glad ycu spolte, elder. Thank you. I'll turn ycur wcrds over in my heart." But Van Heemskirk was under a certain constraint; he was beginning to understand the situation, to Bee in what danger his darling might be. H e was apparently calm; but an angry fire was gathering in his eyes, and stern lines settling about the lower part of his face. "My Lysbet is the finest lady in the whole land. Let her daughters walk in her steps. That is what I want. Now, there is enough, and also there is some one coming." "It will be Neil and Bram"; and. as the words were spoken, the young man entered. "Again you' are late, Bram"; and the father looked curiously in his son's face.

The space between the two houses was an enclosed meadow; and this afternoon, the grass being warm and dry and full of wild flowers, Katherine followed the narrow footpath through it, and entered the Semple garden by the small side gate. Near this gate was a stone dairy, sunk below the .level of the ground—a deliciously cool, clean spot even in the hottest weather. Passing it, she saw that the door was open, and Madam bemple was busy among its large, shallow, pewter, cream-dishes. She was beating some rich curd with eggs and currants and spices; and Katherine, with a sympathetic smile, asked delightedly: "Cheesecakes, madam?" "Just cheeaacakes, dearie." "Oh, I am glad!

An amusing Incident was witnessed in a cigar store on Chestnut street the other afternoon. A newsboy, having picked up a cigar stump, walked in and, addressing the roan behind the counter, said: "Say, boss, give us a match." The man behind the counter, looking down, said: "My young friend, we are not here for the purpose of giving away matches; we sell them." "How much are dey?" was the question. "One cent a box." the clerk announced. The urchin stuck his hand Into his pocket and produced, after a, great deal of hunt* ing, a penny and handed It to the man. He received his box of matches, and, taking one out, lit the "butt." Returning the box to the man back of the case, he said: "Say, put dia back on de shelf, and when a gentleman comes along and asks you for a match, why, give him one out of my box."—Philadelphia Times. • Wrong Environment.

They did not go on the river. Capt Hyde did not want a third party near, im any capacity. The lower steps were shaded by great water beeches, nod the turf under them was green and warm. A aweeter hour, a lovelier maid, man could never hope to find; and Capt. Hyde ^waa not one to neglect hie opportunity. "Let us stay-here, my beloved," he whispered.

He had called for her on his way home; for he liked the society of the young and beautiful, and there were many hours in Which he thought Joanna fairer than her sister. Tften tea was served in a pretty parlor with Turkish walls and colored win- «kVs, which, being open into the gardeji* framed lovely living pictures of blossoming trees. Every one was eatips and drinking/" laughing and talklag; so Katherine'a unusual silence was unnoticed, except by the elder, a^fto indeed saw and heard everything, .anal who knew' what he did not see sued hear by that kind of prescience 0 wfcicfc wise and observant years at- <tSBBL 4 Joarma was talking to Neil Semple in the recess of a window; but Neil's face was white with suppressed anger, and* though he seemed to be listening to her, his eyes—full of passion—were Jbted upon Hyde. Perhaps the young soldier was conscious of it; for he occasionally addressed some trivial resaark to. him, as if to prevent Neil losing sight of the advantages he had .over him. T h e vera, air o' this room is gunpowdery," thought the elder; "and ane or the other wfll be flinging a spark o' passion into it ,and then the deil will be to pay. Ill e'en tak' the lasses name myseT; and I'll speak to Joris for his daughter—as good now as any other time."

In the end Katherine would perceive how imprudent, how impossible a marriage with Capt. Hyde must be; and her heart would turn back to Neil; who had beenTlher^Tover from boyhood. Yet, he reflected, it would be well to have the matter • understood, and to give it that "possibility" which Is best attained on a money basis. So, while he and the Van Heemskirks discussed the matter—a little reluctantly, he thought, on their part— Katherine talked with Joanna of the Cordons. Joanna had not a suspicion of the joy and danger that had come to the dear little one at her side. She was laughing- softly with her, even while the fearful father stood at the closed door, and lifted up his tender soul in that pathetic petition, "Ach, mijn kind! mijn kind! mljn liefste kind!

"Weil, well, to-day goes to its forefathers, like all the rest; and, as for what comes after it, everything is in the love and counsel of the Almighty One." This was Joris Van Heemskirk's last thought ere he fell asleep that night, after Elder Sample's cautious disclosure and proposition. In his calm, methodical, domestic life, it had been an "eventful day." We say the words often and unreflectingly; seldom pausing to consider that such days are the results which months, years, perchance centuries, have made possible. Thus, a long course of reckless living and reckless gambling, and the consequent urgent need of ready money, had made Capt. Hyde turn his thoughts to the pretty daughter of the rich Dutch merchant. "She is a homespun little thing," laughed the colonel's fashionable wife, "and quite unfit to go among people of our condition. But she adores you, Dick; and she will be passably happy with a house to manage, and a visit from you when you can spare the time." It was in this mood that Katherine and her probable fortune had been discussed; and thus she was but one of the events, springing from lives anterior to her own and very different from it. Also, in her father's case, the mo-, tives influencing his decision stretched backward through many generations. None the less was their influence potent to move him. In fact, he forgot entirely to reflect how a marriage between his child and Capt. Hyde would be regarded at that day; his first thoughts had been precisely such thoughts as would have occurred to a Van Heemskirk, living two hundred years before him. Joris' age was not an age inclined to analysis, and he was still less inclined to it from a personal standpoint. For he was a man of few, but positive ideas; yet these ideas, having once commended themselves to his faith or his intelligence, were embraced with all his soul. Semple's communication regarding Capt. Hyde and his daughter had aroused in him certain feelings, and led him to certain decisions. He went-to sleep, satisfied with their propriety and justice. He awoke in precisely the same mood. Then he dressed and went into his garden. It was customary for Katherine to join him there; and he frequently turned, as he went down the path, to jee if she^were coming. But thif morning the dtdgnftt some. He 'walked ftoiie' ttf fcfs * My- 'bed r but his face brightened when he heard her calling him to breakfast and- very soon he saw* her leaning over the halfdoor, shading her eyes with both hands, the bettor to watch his approach.

That is the Dutch way; that Is the right way. Mind what I tell thee." His voice had gradually grown sterner, and he gently withdrew his hand from her clasp, and rose as a man pressed with affairs. When he had left the room Lysbet instantly began to order the wants of the house. Katherine still sat at the table; her eyes were cast down, and she was arranging—without a consciousness of doing so—her bread crumbs upon her Delft plate. Roused from her revery she comprehended in a moment how decisive' her father's orders were intended to be. Tet in this matter she was so deeply interested that she Instinctively made an appeal against them. "Mother, my mother, shall I not go once more to see Madam Gordon? So kind she has been to me! She will say I am ungrateful, that I am rude, and know not good mariners. Yes, mother, I may go once. A young girl does not like to be thought ungrateful and rude." "More than that, Katherine; a young girl should not like to disobey a good father. You make me to feel astonished and sorry. Here is the key of the best parlor; go now and wash carefully the fine china-ware." So Lysbet turned and left the room. She did not notice the rebellious look on her daughter's face, the lowering brows, the resentment in the glance that followed her, the lips firmly set to the mental purpose. "To see hei lover at all risks"—that was the purpose; but how best to accomplish it was not clear to her. s She 'lifted the key given her and went to the parlor. It was a large, low room, with wainscoted walls, and a big tiled fireplace nearly filling it. The blinds were closed, but there was enough light to reveal its quaint and almost foreign character. The oval tables were full of curious bits of china, dainty oriental wicker-work, exquisite shells on lacquered trays, wonderfully wrought workboxes and fans and amulets. As she moved about among the strange carven toys and beautiful ornaments, she couoid think only of him—of his stately manner and dark, handsome face. She recalled every word he said to her as they sat under the water beeches. More vividly still she recalled the tender light jn his eyes, the lingering clasp of his hand, his low, persuasive voice, and that nameless chajan of fashion and culture which perhaps impressed her more than any other thing. Among the articles she had to dust was a square Indian box with drawers. It had always been called "the writing box," and it was partly filled with paper and other materials for letterwriting. She stood before the open lid thoughtfully, and a sudden overwhelming desire to send some message of apology to Mrs. Gordon came intCner heart She could write pretty well and she had seen her mother and Joanna fold and seal letters; and, although she was totally inexperienced in the matter, she determined to make the effort. All difficulties were overcome, one by one; and the following note intrusted to the care of Diedrlch Becker, the old man who worked in the garden and milked the Cows: "To Mistress Col. Gordon— "Honored Madam: My father forbids that t come to see yon. He thinks yon should upon my mother call. That yon will judge me to be rude and ungrateful, I fear very much. But that is not true. I am happy, indeed. I think all the day of you. "Your obedient servant, "Kathertoe Van HsjaWWrk,* rrb*^Bft continued.} <t- ^What- bare they doner A.

There used to be an old fashioned remedy for croup, known as hive syrup and tola, but some modern mothers say that Chamberlain's Con ah Remedy is , better, and does not copt so much.

As the doctor frequently said of her: . "The widow Amesy is a good-sized chunk of a woman; able to take care of herself and stand on her rights." For some inscrutable reason the widow had set herself Up as the champion of the weak—men, women or children, there was no ^difference to her—even In the case of a helpless bird or dog, she would ruffle up as if she had the feathers of a motherly hen guarding her brood from the attacks of a ravenous hawk, and; stay the injurious hand. To the sick and suffering' she was kindness personified, and her gentle disposition combined with her physical strength and the knowledge of how to use it brought Jier into' constant dunand as a skillful nurse. Everybody knew her, respected her. and bad reason to be grateful to her for services performed at some period or other, and was ready to fight for her if the occasion' required, war on her behalf. There was once a faint breath of scandal, but the doctor dissipated it in the most starfiiaaft f igproas manner, and after that, • neither ft nor any other iltfwind ble* in her direction. **lf that woman isnt a saint, she's next door to being one," waa his wind-up when he told the story. l|r.

Naturally careless and reckless, Mr. Jimson plunged into a quagmire, and shouted for help. Fortunately the widow heard his cries and rushed to the rescue. "What in the world are you doing in there, Mr. Jimson?" she inquired after locating* him in the semi-darkness. "The cowS, widow; 1 started after them and forgot the slough in goin* cross lots." "Wait, Mr. Jimson, and I will pull you out," and she made as if aha would go in after him, but he quickly stopped her. "No, no, widow, for Qod's sake, go back. You'll mire yourself an' both of us'll be lost" "1 have it," said the widow, quickly taking in all the surrounding*. "Have patience, Mr. Jimson, and- do not struggle, or you will.sink faster," then adding under her-breath: "I must do it; ^here's no time to get help; besides, nobody can see me.** The big lower limb of a sycamore tree stretched out over and beyond him, but out of his reach, and her thought waif, that if she could, cllm out on the limb, her weight would bend it .down so that he could seise hold of it, and either7 draw himself out or hold on to it until she could procure other aid. She climbed the tree and reached the big iimJb after encountering numerous bruises'and scratches, which, howaver, she did not heed. Then resting a moment, the stretched her body out alonr the branch and began to crawl slowly toward Jimson, who soon' understood what she toteaderto dfe "Widow,* he crtet imploringly, "you'll fall off an' be teat.. Never mind me, widow, J eiat of no account} Tm Ja,mr last hole; an' It's Jest as well. For God's sake, widow,, go baek; dont resit your life ferae!" '-•3ss still, poor man," sett the worn- «a« crawttng slowly along, her arest and log* ctefpad areund the Utah. It n to bend with her weight a€ last, but she still kept on, almost falling off, for the limb was growing smaller and she could not grip it tight She flattened her body down upon it like a worm crawling on a quivering twig, all the time telling Jimson to cheer up and she' would save him. The limb bent lower and lower still, until Jimson had a tiny branch in his grasp. "Now, hold on tight," the widow commanded, "and keep still. I am going back/and when my weight is off the limb it will spring up and pull you out." So saying, she began to crawl backward cautiously, lest a single slip should throw her off her balance and her efforts prove In vain. The broken, jagged twigs and branches caught her dress and pierced her flesh, but with resistless force she . bore her whole weight backward against them and tore herself free, reaching the trunk in safety, whence she dropped panting to the ground. Jimson worked the stieky earth and sand into the consistency of gruel, by turning and twisting, until finally the downward suction ceased and, the upward spring of the tree branch began to draw him up and out Then, climbing hand over hand along the limb as it bent back to its normal position, the woman encouraging him all the way, he finally reached safety, and, dropping from the limb to the ground, broke his leg and fell unconscious. When he recovered his senses he was lying on a couch In the widow's little parlor, the widow herself bending over him with a bowl of steaming tea which she made him drink. "I must go home, widow," said Jimson trying to stand up and walk, but falling to the floor, groaning with pain. lifting him back upon the couch, the widow bade him lie still while she went for the doctor. "H-m-m, a very bad case," remarked the doctor after an examination of the fractured member. "Crushed, twisted and broken. How did It happen?" When put in possession of the facts, the doctor burst out into a roar of laughter. "What a sight! What a isightr*-he exclaimedaa spon asjift. recovered his breath. "What do you mean?" demanded the widow, bridling up. "Why, your crawling out on that limb and crawfishing back again." The imaginative doctor again broke out into a fit of laughter, whicbTwas sudy denly checked by a sound box on the ear administered by the angry woman. "You're here to fix this poor man's leg, not to insult a woman!" she snapped out with fire in her eyes. "Widow, I beg your pardon," said the doctor humbly as he turned to his patient "It will be six weeks before he can crawl about on crutches, and two months before he can attempt to' walk," waa the fiat when the operation had been completed. "Six weeks? Two months?" groaned Jimson. "Le'me go home. I must go home," and he attempted to rise, compelling the doctor to hold him down on his back. "But the cow, widow, I must git the cow," said he plaintively. "Never mind the cow, Mr. Jimson, said the widow; let it go to Halifax. You've got to lie still for six weeks or two months. V\\ take care of you. And she did taae care of him, pulling'him through until he was able to walk. ' Not long afterward, about ten before Thanksgiving day, the widow's little, house was burned to the ground, all she* had In the worlJ being consumed with it When the bucket brigade finished fighting the fiery demon, the latter had the best of it—there was nothing left but the widow—yes, there waa the hencoop, but that was not a fit habitation for her, although she - thought she might fix it up and get along all right until she could afford to build some sort of a shanty to protect her frets the inclement weather. She refused atl offers of aid* but Squire Hobbe laid down the law and she was compelled to yield. "You will go over to my house and stay there until we nave built you another house," said he with a determination that overcame her resistance. "D'ye thins, we're going to let you live in a hen-coop?" At a. town meeting, called for the purpose, it was resolved to have* the widow's house rebuilt ready for occupation on Thanksgiving day. Some furnished money, others contributed materials, and others still volunteered to do the work. There were delays and setbacks, however, as is usual whenever any work is promised at a certain, fixed time, so that when Thanksgiving morning arrived the problem of completing the Job became knotty, but having been promised and undertaken, it had to be finished. By hard thinking 'Squire Hobbs conceived the idea; and to carry it into effect, he summoned his fellow townsmen and laid the matter before them. "You women folks," said he by way of consulting them, "you women folks go home and cook up what you've got in the house just the same as if you were going to get dinner—Turkeys, chickens, geese, ducks, anything, and cranberry sauce. The pumpkin and mince pies are already ripe on the pantry shelves. Then bring everything here by 4 o'clock. We men will finish this house for the widow by that time, and we'll all eat our Thanksgiving dinner on the spot. It will be a house warming Thanksgiving dinner and an old-fashioned barn-raising combined. There'll be board tables laid outside for those who can't get inside the house. You boys and girls, get all the boxes and barrels you can find—there's a lot of cerdwood in my back yard that won't be missed—and If we-don't finish eating by dark, we'll have bonfires to see by and warm up up. Widow, you just sit or stand around and boss things, it being your house. No remarks, please! Scatter! * The house was on hand at the hour named, so were the women and the combined Thanksgiving dinners.

Then bear may devour^ hie prey and growl to his w ^ ' s coatint over his meal, and prey becomes'oaar, and the fun' goes on. For _a parlor game it is bettor to suspend a soft but not too light-weight ball- from the gas fixture, and; set the tenpins upon the floor underneath i t The game can be played Just as described above; or, let the players stand In a circle around the suspended ball, and whomever the ban strikes ' let him send it back softly again and again, much like the swinging of a pendulum. This makes a good go-tbbed game, the players starting for bed as soon as they are struck. Another excellent go-to-bed game— one that gives plenty of exercise—is go-to-bed hop. AH form a ring or circle. Some one plays a lively air. One person is made leader, and begins by shaking the right hand in time with the music, then after a while the left hand ditto, then both hands, then hop upon the right foot, then upon the left, then upon both feet around the circle to right, then ditto left, then a last hop away to bed. The leader may prolong or diminish the time of each movement, making the exercise more or less fatiguing. The game of "handkerchief bear" just fits this requirement, and is a good starter. "Bear" selects a spot on the carpet or rug, and in no caBe is he allowed to get out of his "cage." The children of all ages approach him and flirt their handkerchiefs at him just beyond his reach. He tries with all his might and main to catch some one, and in his eagerness sometimes he gets beyond the limit of his cage. In that case he must catch two children or more—one for each offense. When he succeeds In catching his prey he roars and pretends to chew voraciously and 3wallow. Then the prey —what is left of him—become* "bear," and so the game goes on. • The game pleases particularly the younger children. Kegelspiel is a pretty German game —really an easy way of playing tenpins and far more interesting to young players. For out-of-door sport they suspend a rope from the limb of a tree ond attach to it a wooden ball about the size of an ordinary croquet ball. Ten pins are set up on a small level platform directly underneath this ball as it hangs at just the right angle, so thut -mhrnt thn h*11 rtmpf properly *t * * ; ' • •i ^-:-^- will strike the front tenpln exactly in the center and make a sweep—that is, clear the board as effectually as does An Outdoor Thank aglvlnt Dinner. fuel had given out Then they all went home tired, but full and happy. Was the widow happy? Not a bit more than the others. The boy who obeosos rich pareaU takes the trot stop to sue* a good throw in bowling. The score is kept the same aa in the regular game, it requires less physical strength than bowling, and is an ideal game for little people and for ladles who do not enjoy the violent physical exercise of bowling.

Barir Monday morning, John start* ed^ on a twenty-five mile horseback ride, to buy calves, and drive them name. He would be gone all week. This was her chance. Aa soon as he was out of sight, Jennie called Andy, the hired man, and with his assist* aace the geese were one by one taken from the poultry house, and refctoed of their pretty coats. Hour af£er hour they worked—-all other work for the day being neglected. When night came a row of wheat sacks filled with feathers, stood on .the barn floor. Tuesday morning saw Jennie and Ajpdy driving to Emporia, with the atfefcfl of feathers piled in the wagon behind them. Arriving at Emporia, )ey drove immediately to a produce who purchased the feathers, lat a bound Ler heart gavo when dealer counted the money into her hands. Fifty-five dollars! With a smile of exultation Jennie -started for Cousin , Kitty's, telling Aady to return home and come after Jier on Thursday. '"Kitty, can you go shopping with me this afternoon?" Jennie asked at dinner. "Why, certainly. I should be glad to go. Are you going to get a spring dress?" you about it some other time. Left go down to thee city right away,' When she started for home on Thursday afternoon the dress was well under way, with the promise that she could have it Satnrday afternoon. She spent the intervening time planning how to present the matter to John.

If you see my wife as you go out, please tell her that I want her." » With her heart beating almost to suffocation, Jennie came swiftly into the room, and up to the bedside. John caught her hand, pulled her down to him, and put both arms around her. He held her thus moment after moment, before he spoke. Then he whispered softbr. "My wife, will you forgive met" j --> "Can you forgive me?" she sobbed. For answer, he held her close to him and covered her face with kisses, and all was quiet peace in their hearts. A week later when John knew that he was to live, and not die, lie said to Jennie, "I said once that I would never forgive you until my dying day. Will you consider last Wednesday as my dying day—the day in which I died to all my hardness and selfishness, and let me live again, to make you happy?

Arriving at home just at sundown Jei-uie .was relieved to find that her husbaiid was not home yet/ The dress was hidden upstairs, her clothes changed and supper ready before he did come. Sunday morning, John was tired, and only arose in time to dress hurriedly for church and so did not go to the barnyard. Every circumstance seemed to favor Jennie's carrying out her plan of surprising him. John was shaving in the kitchen—his favorite, place. Jennie was in their room all ready to put on the dress. With' trembling hands she took it out' of 'the box, and looked at its beautiful folds; but her spirit failed her, and she laid it hack again. She went into the closet and brought out the brown flannel that John had given her last fall, and began to put it on. Then she remembered the geese, and thought, "I will at least try the plan of surprising him, for in any event he will know by night, all about it." The brown flannel came off and the silk was put on.. How nicely it fitted her slender figure. Surely John would not harden his heart toward her when he saw how beautiful i t made her appear! With a faltering step and a failing heart, she crept down the stairs, across the sitting room and through the dining-room until she stopped in the kitchen door. a John had lust hung up the towel. He turned and looked at her. His face lighted up with pleasure. Her heart gave a great bound and with a joyful cry, she took a step or two toward him. He then saw for the first time that the beautiful dress was silk, and his face changed to the flinty expression which she so much dreaded. "Jane Prinee, where did you get this dress?" he said, seising her by the arm. "I—I bought it" "You bought it{ and where did you get the money?/' sarcastically. "I—I—ptckeoV-the geesef-and soW —the—feathers," she said, much as if she had been reading her death sentence. John pushed her from him, "Jane Prince, yon may wear your sttk dress, bought by trickery and with stolen mgney, bat you cam no longer be my w4fe. ru not forgiv* yen until my dying day for this base deceit 111 not turn yon dot of the house, for you've teen 4 good1 wife to sse in the. years that are gone.- Ill age the west bedroom and, yon stay waste you ate. ,But dont speak, to me again until my dying day.

Peculiar Malady Has Affected Windows of English Cathedral. Lately it has been found that a peculiar "glass disease" has broken out among the windows of York cathedral. Indeed, it is stated that some of the thirteenth and fourteenth century glass in the edifice has been removed in order to arrest the "disease." The outbreak is ascribed to a fungus, but the exact nature of its attack upon the glass is not described. The glass appears to be perforated to such an extent that portions o' the glass yield on the slightest t.wch. Moreover, the transparency of the glass has to a great extent disapleared— in short, the glass here and there exhibits no longer the properties of glass. It is evident that some kind of chemical action has been established, due, perhaps to the life and habits of a specific fungus. Organisms are known, of course, which assimilate silica. The gradual, but sure crumbling of the cement used in v:ater reservoirs has been traced to the operation of countless tiny organisms. The action was at first regarded as being due to the solvent property of carbonic acid and other substances commonly present in water. Under the action of the bacteria the cement slowly resolved into soft mud. The attack is made by the ubiquitous ritrifying organism, which conducts -o a large extent the great work of purification throughout nature The action ceases In the absence of nitrifiable material, and the view is that nitrous acid is produced which acts upon the cement lining of the water reservoir.—London Lancet.

A large company was present, and as it was the annual election of officers the menu consisted of oysters etc. After a piece of instrumental music by Miss Florence Kice the following officers were elected: President, John Chambers Vice Pres., Henry Kice 2nd Vice Pres., Peter Coniway Secretary, Mrs. John VanFleet Cor. Secy. Mrs. W. H. Placeway Treasurer, Buel Coniway Mrs. S. J. Kennely was elected delegate to the state association - a t JLansing with Mrs. S. E . Swarthout as alternate. We then listened to a vocal selection, with guitar accompaniment by Iva Placeway. An historical sketch, and the singing of The O l d Oaken Bucket and Marching Through Georgia was enjoyed by all. The club voted that the dolegate should bring the question of again placiug the bounty on sparrows before the state association, also that after the sparrows had been counted the officer in charge should be ordered to burn the birds. The meeting closed to meet the last Saturday in December at the home of Mr. and Mrs. 8. Swarthout. •^•s^r*##^^w^MeVeT^s>w£^##^'^# 1 tdljM by the W. Hopeful Aspeeta of Tempera***.

Upon them primarily rests the responsibility for the saloon. They may deny the fact or dodge the issue, but they cannot Bhake off the load. Voters elect the men and support the platforms which lead to laws that legalize liquor selling. Drinkers are responsible for the patronage of saloons, but voters are respons ble for the saloons themselves. There is small hope for drinkers when they become confirmed, but there is large hope for voters when they are brought to see their duty ciearlyr How often we~have been told that "you can not make men sober by law." Of course you can not. Of course not. But it seems you can make them drink by law. Men are born sober. They would remain sober but for the intoxicants which the law allows to be made and sold. It is law for whiskey, not law against whiskey, which makes men drunk. What we demand is that drunkard- making laws shall be stricken from the statute books, giving our boys and young men a chance to be sober. nWv.

The test, which will be made within a short time, will consist of dropping the cage from the top of the tower to the air cushion, a distance of 372 feet 9 inches. It is calculated that it will when thus released travel at the rate of 256 feet a second. The eggs and water will be placed on th"e keg of nails.

A crow has been getting the Calcutta Telephone company into trouble. It built its nest at the central office, where four wires converged, and used tin clippings and bits of wire for the purpose, with the result' that it established complete electrical communication between the whole of the four lines. When a subscriber rang up some one he wanted, he was answered from four different offices at once. It will be good news to the mothers of Bmall children to learn that croup can be prevented. The first sign of croup is hoarseness. A day or two before tbe attack tbe child becomes hoarse. This is soon followed by a peculiar rough cjaurh. Give Chamberlain's cough remedy freely as sxm as tbe cbild becomes hoarse, or even after the rough cough appears and it will dispel a1! symptoms Qt' ci,f>up. In this way all danger and anxiety may be avoided. This remedy is ns«d by many thousands.of mothers and has never hern known to fail.

At least 13 persons, and possibly more, including Mr. Gregory, found an ley grave in the waters of Lake Erie on the night of the 24th. They were the officers and crew of the steamer Sylvauus J. Macy, owned by the Interlake Transportation Co., of Detroit. The Macy left Buffalo with the barge Mabel Wilson in tow, laden with coal, Saturday afternoon, and made slow time across the lake on account of the heavy weather. Sunday night the boats were off Long Point, when Capt J. E, Gotham, of the tow, brother of the captain of the steumer, heard five long* blasts of the steamer's whistle, and Immediately afterward the tow line was dropped. The barge master stood away from the steamer and hoisted canvas to obtain steerage way. Capt. Gotham kept as close a lookout for his brother's steamer as he could. She appeared to be drifting about erratically, as though the steering gear was disabled. He watched her lights for some time. Then, after about five minutes' interval since he had last looked at her, her lights had disappeared. There is little doubt that she foundered then and that all hands were lost There was such a heavy sea on it is doubtful if small boats could hold their own.

Not women who have ever stood, trembling with love and joy, close to the dear one's heart. Ii they be gray-baired, and on the very shoal of life, they must remember still those momenta of delight—the little lane, the flre-nt room, the drifting boat that ia Jinked wiULtbem. Ii they be young and lovely, and-have but to aay, "It was yeaterday," or, "It was last week/' still better they will aolable without the dear creatures society,' seemed to the fond mother the ;. moot proper and natural of feelings. "Do but; let' me see her an hour, madam/' dhe said. "You know my sincere admlraUon. Ia not that her voicef I Vow, she sings to perfection! And what-a singular.melody!

At the second verse, Mrs. Gordon rose and said, "Indeed, madam, I find my good breeding no match against such singing. And the tune la wonderful; it has the ring of trumpet*, and the roar of the wavea In It. Pray let us go at once to your daughter's." "At work are they; but If you mind not that, you are welcome Indeed." Then ahe led the way to the large living, or dining, room, where Katharine stood at the table cleaning the silver flagona and cups and plates that adorned the great oak sideboard. Joanna, who waa darning some fine linen, rose and made hejr respects with perfect composure. She had *epy little.liking, either for Mrs Gordon or her nephew; and. majjiy of their •^waya appeared to her utterly foolisn and not devoid of sin. But Katharine trembled and blushed, with pleasure Tkttd excitement, aSd Mrs. Gordon watched her with a certain kind of curious delight. Her hair was combed backword, plaited, and tied with a ribbon; her arms bare to the shoulders, her black bodice and crimson petticoat neatly shielded with a linen apron; and poised In one hand she held a beautiful silver flagon covered with raised figures, which with patient labor she had brought into shining relief, * Conversation was easily maintained. Madam Van Heemskirk knew the pedigree or the history of every tray or cup, and in reminiscence, and story an hour passed away very pleasantly indeed. Then Mrs. Gordon/after bidding madam an effusive good-by, turned suddenly and said, "Pray allow yom daughter to show me the many ornamenta in your parlor. The glimpse I had has made me very impatient to see them more particularly." Hie moment the parlor door had been abut, Mra. Gordon lifted Katherihe's face between her palms, and said: "Faith, child, I am almoat run off my head with all the fine things I have ' listened to , for your sake, bo you know who sent me here?" "I think, madam, Capt Hyde." "Paha! Why don you blush, and stammer, and lie about it? Now, Capt. Hyde wishes to see you; when, can you oblige him so much?" "I know- not To come to Madam Semple's is forbidden me by my father." "Oh, indeed!. Has your father forbidden you to walk down your garden to the river bankr. "No, madam." "Then, if Capt Hyde pees about Z o'clock, he might see you there?" •: "Three?"

Then an officer in the stern rose and Katherlne saw Capt Hyde fling back from his left shoulder his cloak, in order to display tHe bow of orange ribbon on his breast Katherlne went back to the house as merry as a bird. She chatted of this and of that and sang snatches ot songs, old and new. And all the time her heart beat out ita own glad refrain, "My bow of orange ribbon, my bow of orange ribbon!" CHAPTER III. Joy in the House. "Honored gentleman, when will you pay me my money?" The speaker was an old man, dressed in a black coat buttoned to the anklea, and a cap of silk and fur, from beneath which fell a fringe of gray hair. The Inquiry was addressed to Capt. Hyde. He paid no attention whatever to it, but, gayly humming a stave, of "Marlbrook," watched the crush of wagons and pedestrians, in order to find a suitable moment to cross thernarrow street.,, "Honored gentleman, when will: you pay me my moneys?" -> The second inquiry elicited still- less attention. "I do not wish to make you more expenses, captain," and Cohen, following the impulse of his anxiety, laid his hand upon his debtor's arm. Hyde turned in a rage, and flung off the touch with a passionate oath. Then the Jew left him and walked slowly towards his store and home. He soon recovered the calmness which had been lost during his unsatisfactory interview with Capt. Hyde. "A wise man frets not himself,, for the folly of a fool;" and, having come to this decision, he entered his house with the invocation for its peace and prosperity on his lips. Soon there was a little stir In the street—that peculiar sense of something more than usual," which can make itself felt in the busiest thoroughfare— and Cohlen went to the door and looked out. "The Great Christopher" had ccme to anchor—Capt. Batavlus de Vrles. There was quite a crowd on the wharf. Some were attracted by curiosity; others, by the hope of a good job on the cargo; others, again, not averse to a little private bargaining for any curious or valuable goods the captain of the "Great Christopher" had for sale. Joanna Van Heemskirk had had a message from her lover, Capt. de Vries, and she was watching for his arrival. There was no secrecy in her love affairs, and It was amid the Joy and smiles of the whole household that she met her affianced husband. They were .one of those loving, sensible couples, for whom it is natural to predict a placid and happy life, and the first words of Batavlus seemed to assure it: "My affairs have gone well, Joanna as they generally do; and now I shall build the house, and we shall be married.^ Joanna laughed. "I shall just aay a word or two, also, about that, Batavlus.". "Come, come, the word or two was said so long ago.

K*th too great for Katherlne to ovefcomeT And, as yet, nothing definite bad been said to her about Neil Sample, and the arrangement made for her future, so that in effect, she waa still free, since Neil had not spoken. On the night of. De Vries' return there was a great gathering at Van Heemskik's house. Conspicuous in the happy, chattering company, Lysbet Van Heemskikrk bustled about, in the very whitest and stiffest of lace caps: Very soon after sundown, Elder Sempie and madam his wife arrived; and the elder, as usual, made a decided stir among the group whlcu he joined. "No, no, councillor," he said, in answer to the Invitation of Joris to come outside. "No, no, I'll not risk my health, maybe my vera life, oot on the otoop after sunset." '*Well, then, neighbors, we'll go inside," said Joris. "Clean pipes, and a snowball (gin mixed stiff with sugar), or a glass of Hollands, will not, I think, be amiss." The movement was made among some jokes and laughter, and they gathered near the hearthstone. Katherlne came and stood behind her father's chair. She let her head fall down over his shoulder, and he raised his own to clasp it. "What Is it then, mijn, Katrijntje kleintje?" "It is to dance. Mother says 'yes,: if thou art willing." "Then I say *yes,' also. For a moment she laid her cheek against him, and the happy tears came into his eyes, and he stroked her face and half-reluctantly let Batavlus lead her away. At that day there were but few families of any wealth who did not own one black man who could play well upon the violin. Joris possessed two, and they were both on hand, putting their own gay spirits into the fiddle and the bow. And oh, how happy were the beating feet and the beating hearts that went to the stirring strains! It was joy and love and youth inmelodious motion. The old looked on with gleaming, sympathetic eyes; the young forgot that they were mortal. Miss Katern Van Heemskirk and Mr^ Neil Semple will now bab de honorol 'bilging de company wid de French minuet." S At this announcement, made by the first negro violin, there was a sudden silence; and Neil rose, and with a low bow offered the tips of his fingers to the beautiful girl, who rose blushing to take them. Neil's dark, stately beauty was well set off by his black velvet suit and powdered hair and gold buckles. And no lovelier contrast could have faced him than Katherlne Van Heemskirk; so delicately fresh, so radiantly fair, she looked in her light blue robe and white lace stomacher, with a pink rose at her breast. Nell had a natural majesty In his carriage; Katherlne supplemented it with a natural grace. As she waa in the very act of making Nell a profound courtesy, the door opened and Mra Gordon ami Capt Hyde entered. The latter took in the exquisite picture in a moment and there was a-ftre of jealousy in his heart when he saw Neil lead his partner to her seat and with the deepest respect kiss her pretty fingers ere he resigned them. But he was compelled to control hlmselt as he was ceremoniously introduced to Councillor sad-Madam Van Heemskirk by his aunt, who with a charming effusiveness declared "she was very uneasy to intrude so far, but in faith, councillor,* she pleaded, "1 am oat a woman, and I find the news, ot'a wedding beyond my aata^e 10 re- (To be continued.* A *•-» 5S5T salivate disappears and the new clover is recognized as a valuable forage crop to the community.

From Farmers' Review: been a reader of the Farmers' Review for years I would like to say a few words about seed corn/ Now is the proper time to save IK At least, that is my opinion fronyiwenty years' experience. When/husking, select the most perfect ears and throw them into the front end'of a wagon. At night tie them wlttt twine, putting 20 or 25 ears together: Then take a short piece of twine and tie them in the center. Drive some large spikes into the ceilg of the cellar and hang the corn there until the following April. I have followed this practice for years and have never failed to have a good stand of corn from seed so secured. This is the secret of a good crop. In the spring it will lie longer in the ground without rotting, will come up stronger and will produce more stalks with ears on them- than seed corn kept in any other way. It takes perfect seed corn to make a perfect stand. Good seed also gives an early maturing corn and aavea a groat deal of labor ami time.—A. T. Evans, Knox county, Illinois, (Wo would like to hear further from our correspondent as to what kind of a cellar he has. Many cellars are damp, and in such it is very doubtful If seed corn could be successfully kept—Editor Farmers' Review.) An Old Story. The Toaawaada Review says that a number of farmers In Wyoming county, New York, have bought "ball bearing" churns at $7 each; others paid ftto for territorial rights. The agents Introduced a chemical into the cream and made i n two minutes what looked like batter. The pur chasers of the churns cant make butter ia them in two boura The film* Hammers r«re said to have taken 12,600 out of tLe county.

The strange beasts are called "megwe" by the natives and arc very numerous in the neighborhood of the station of the Amadis owing to the number of rocks and caves in that region. They attack the native canoes, capsizing them easily with their tentacles and, according to their state of hunger, seizing one or two men.

Mix all dry ingredients together, soften butter aud dripping and rub well into flour; add milk enough jto make soft dough and roll out on floured board till about onehalf inch thick; cut in rounds the size of a tea plate, put in a greased tin and bake till lignt brown. When done, cut in two and spread thickly with butter. Serve hot. These cakes will keep good and can be warmed in the oven when wanted. CHURCHES. arUUl>i»T EPISCOPAL CHUKCH. HOT. H. W . Hicks, pastor.

The Beginning of Strifs. "My dear Dick, I am exceedingly concerned to find you in such a taking— moping about a Dutch schoolgirl! Pshaw! I had a much better opinion of ycu." " "I know I love her beyond everything, and that 1 am likely so to love her all my life." "Upon my word, Dick, lovo may live an age—if you don't marry it." "Let me make you understand fiat I wish to marry it." "Oh, Indeed, sir! Then the church doer stands open. Go in. I suppDse the lady will oblige you so far." "Pray, dear aunt, give me Jour advice. What is the first step to be taken?" "Go and talk with her father. The girl you think worth asking for; but if, is very necessary for ycu to know what fortune goes wita her beauty." "If her father refuses io give her to me—" "That is not to be thought of. You come of a noble race. You are not far from the heritage of a great title and estate. If you ask for her fortune, you offer far above its equivalent, sir." "Well, this suspense is intolerable, and not to be borne. I will go and end it. Give me your good wishes." "1 shall be impatient to hear the result." At Van Heemskirk's store Capt. Hyde aBked for the councillor and was taken to his office. "Your servant, captain. Is there any thing 1 can oblige you in, sir?" Joris asked the question because the manner of the young man struciv him as uneasy and constrained; and hie thought, "Perhaps he has come to borrow money." He was not, therefore astonished waen Capt Hyde answered: • "Sir, you can, indeed, oblige me, and that in a matter of the greatest moment." "If money it be, captain, at once 1 may tell you, that I borrow not, and I lend hot." "Sir, it is not money—in particular." "So?" "It is your daughter, Katherine." Then Joris stood up, and looked steadtfy at the suitor. His large, amiable face had become in a moment hard end stern; and the light In his eyes was like the cord, sharp light that falls from drawn steel. "My daughter Is not for you to name. Sir, It is a wrong to her, if you speak her name. Like to like, that is what I say. Your wife seek, There waa something vary impressive in the angry: sorrow of Joris. Yet Hyde persevered In his solicitation.. "Do but hear me, sir. I have done nothing contrary to the custom of people in my condition, and I assure you that with all nay soul I love your daughter. No man can love her better." • "What say you? How, then, 'do I love Iter? I who carried her— mijn wlUelammetje—- inthese arms before yet she could say to me, 'Fader!'" His wrath had been steadily growing, and suddenly striking toe desk a ponderous blow with his closed hand, be said with an unmistakable passion, "My daughter you shall not have. God in heaven to. himself take her ere such sorrow come to her and me!" "Sir, you are very uncivil; but to be plain with you, I am determined to marry your daughter if I can compass the matter in any way. It Is now, tben, open war between us; and so, sir, your servant." "Stay. To rue listen. Not one guilder will I give to my daughter, if—" "To the devil with your guilders! Dirty money made in dirty traffic—" "You lie." "Sir, you take un infamous advantage. You know, that, being Kafaerine's father. I will not challenge you." "Christi:s!" reared Joris, "challtr.£ a nio ore hundred times. A fool I would be to answer you. Life my God gave to mo. We'll, then, enly my God shall from me take it. See you these arms and hands? In taem you will be as the child of one year. Ere beyond my reason you move me, go!" and he strode to the dcor and flung it open with a passion that made every one ia tbe store straighten towards the two :1102. White with ra&e, and wifj his hand upon his sword-hilt, Capt. Hyde stamped his way through the crowded store to .the du3ty street. Then it struck aim that he had not asked the name of the man to whom Katherine was promised. He swore at himself for tac omission. Whether he knew him or not, he was determined to fight him. Now he must see Katherine before her father had any opportunity to give any orders regarding him. In the meantime Joris was suffering aa only such deop natures can suffer. Cspt. Hyde's proposal and his positive assertion that Katherine loved him, had fallen upen the father's heart with the force of a blow, and the terror of a sheck. . After Hyde's departure, he shut the cicor of his office, walked to the window, and stood there some minutes, clasping and unclasping his large hands, like a man full of grief and perplexity. Ere long he remembered his friend Semple. This trouble concerned him also, for Capt. Hyde was in a manner his guest; and, if he were informed of the marriage arranged between Kataerine and Neil Semple, he would doubtless feel himself bound in honor to retire. ' Joris found Semple and in a few short, £trong sentences, put the case before him. "My certis! When girls are auld enough for a lover, they are a match for any gray head. -I'm thankfu' man that I wasra' put in charge o' any o' them. I shall hae to speak my mind to Nlel, and likewise to Col. Gordon; and you canna put off your duty to your daughter an hour longer. Dear me! To think, Joris, o' a man being able to sit wi' the councillors 0' the nation, and yet no matci for a lassie o' seventeen!" As they walked homeward, the elder talked, and Joris pondered, not what was said, but the thoughts and purposes that were slowly forming in his own micd. When the evening meal was over Joris rose, and laying his hand on Katherine's shoulder said, "There is something to talk about. Sit down, Lysbet; the door shut close, and listen to me." It was Impossible tb mistake the stern purpose on her husband's face, and Lysbet silently obeyed the order, "Katherine, katrUntje,, mtja kind, this afternoon there comes to the store captain, among your own women. My the young man Capt. Hyde. To thy daughter if to^another man 'prow iatfcer h# eatd many ill-words. To iti«d.4i •••s >im thotf tftsflt never speak again. "Look yovi councillor, that would Thy promise give to me*." T She sat silent, with dropped eyes, and cheeks as red as the pomesraiiato 'r flower at her breast "MUakt»d» speak to me.'f -- ^ Weeping bitterly* she rose and wept" to her mother* and laid ho* head upan Lysbet's shoulder.

"My father!" .9 "Do I love thee?'* "Yea, yea." -"Doit thou, then, love me?" 8he put her arms round his neck, and laid her cheek against bis, and kissed him many times. MWUt thou go away and leave me, and leave thy mother, in our old age? Katrljntje, my dear, dear child, what for me, and for thy mother, wilt thou do?" "Thy wish—if I can." Then he told her of the provision made for her future. He reminded her of Neil's long affection, and added, "To-morrow, about thy own house, ^ w i l l take the first step. ^Nearnry house it shall be; and at the feast.of St. Nicholas. thou shalt be married. And money, 'plenty of money, I will give thee; and all that is proper thy mother and thee shall buy. But no more, no more at all, shalt thou see or speak to that bad man who has so beguiled thee. Wilt thou these things promise me? Me and thy mother?" "Richard I must see once more. That is what I ask." "Richard! So far is it? Well, then, I will as easy make It as I can. Once more, and for one hour, thou may see him. But I lay it on thee to tell him the truth, for this and for all other time." "Now may I go? He is anigh. His boat I hear at the landing;" and she 3tood up, intent, hastening, with her fair head lifted, and her wet eyes fixed en the distance. "Well, be it so. Go." With tho words she slipped from the room; and Joris called Bnltu to bring him some hot coals, and began to fill his pipe. As the Virginia calmed and soothed him, the sweetness of his rature was at once in the ascendant; and he said, "Lysbet, como then, and talk with me about the child." She turned tie keys in her press slowly, and stood by it with them in her hand. "What has been told thee, Joria, to-day? And who has spoken? Tongues evil and envious, I am suro of ttat." "Thcu art wrong. The young man to me spoke himself. He said, 'I love your daughter. I want to marry her.'" "Well, then, he did no wrong. And as for Katrijfftje, it is in nature that a young girl should want a lover. It is in nature she should choose the one she likes best. That is what 1 cay." "Yes, it is in nature the child should want this handsome stranger; hut with me thou wilt certainly say, 'He is not fit for thy happiness; he has not the true faith, he gambles, he fights duels, he is a waster, he lives badly, he will take thee far from thy own people and thy own home." She drew close to him, and laid her arm across his broad saoulders; and he took his pipe from his lips, and turned his face to her. "Kind and wise art thou, my husband; and whatever is thy wish, that Is my wish too." "Right am I, and I know I am right. And I think that Neil Semple will a very great person. On the Juclge s bench ho will sit down yet." "A good young man he may be, but he is a very bad lover; that is tie truth. If a little less wise he could only be! A young girl likes some foolish talk. Little fond words, very strong they are. Thou thyself said them to me." "That 1B right. To NeL I will talk a little. A man must seek a good wife with more heart than be seeks gold. Yes, yes; her price above rubies is." At the very moment Joris made this remark, the elder was speaking for him. Neil was walking about tae terrace, and he. joined him, "You are stepping in a vera majestic way, Neil; what's in your thoughts, I wonder?" "I have a speech to make to-morrow, sir. My thoughts were oh the law/1' which has a certain majesty of its | own." "You'd better be thinking o* a* speech you ought to make to-night, if you care aboot saving yoursel' wT, Katherine Van Heemskirk. You hae a rival, eir. Capt.

On practically all American farms • the permanent pasture i s neglected. V Tliis is more true of the. weet even than of the* e a s t It is rather surprising to find It true in all of our dairy regions, where we might expect to see the permanent pasture fully appreciated. Whore an effort is made to keep them up it too often stops at putting on a little manure and some clover and timothy Beed or turning the sod over and sowing to blue grass* Timothy can hardly he considered a very .good grass for pastures, unless the pasture is to be used largely- for horses, and the clover generally dies .out in a few years. The tiltte grass proves good pasturage only under favorable conditions and with proper [handling. Generally It does not prove to be a first-class pasture through the vi'lxole year. It Is desired to have a pasture that matures its grass at different seasons. Our great mistake seems to have been in sowing too few varieties of grasses. This mistake is .accentuated when wo sow two or three varieties of grasses that mature at the same time. These begin to grow at the same time and during the "flush" -of the season the animals revet in a superabundance of good things. But when the grasses have/reached their maturity they 'begin/to decline at •once. No new varieties are coming on to take the place of the varieties that are in decadence, and the stock at pasturage begin to feel the difference. The farmer then must, begin feeding or he will have to face a shrinkage in of his fat cattle antf a shrinkage of milk in his dairy cattle. Tfcejaropcr way would be to select grasae#that jrtature at different times and that have their growth in different seasons and at different times. Thla can be done by sowing some very early and some, very late grasses. Among the grasses "taartrwttt be well to sow for tho oarly growing we mention the fescues, orchard grass and timothy. For those that have a late growing season we name crested dog tail, alslke clover, red clover and meadow foxtail. To these may be added other valuable grasses that have been found to be ficod in different -localities.—Farmers' Review. . , « *• -m< _Hn i|i'n» »•'!'

Morrill: I t h i n k nine-tenths of the peaches in eur state , and a good many from Illinois are picked either too soon or too late and not at the right time. A peach one-half or twothirds grown is semi-colored and If picked will go on and take out the color, but never matures, never gets flavor and never has size. The last fortyeight hours in the development of the peach Is what gives It the else, and It Is a very Important factor in eelling. A peach should be picked * s the greater portion of it turns t o yellow or cream white, depending upon the variety. It should be picked Immediately. It frequently happens S » t you -should go over an orchard every day, every tree, and take out every ripe peach.

HMrtmaa, Columbus, Obkx Dear Sir:—* 'The young girl who used the Peruna was suffering from laryngitis, and loss of voice. The result of the treatment was most satisfactory. She found great relief, and after further use of the medicine we hope to be able to say she is entirely cured." —Sisters of Charity. The young girl was under the care of the Sisters of Charity and used Peruna for catarrh of the thtoat with good results as the above letter testifies.

Besides thm collection of fine paintin «s, tb«.e were two fine collections from our home artists, Miss Mabel Swartbout and Mrs. H. F. Sigler, which ranK high among amateur work. Among their collections were scenes aloog tbe Huron river near Base lake and other scenes familiar to campers and cottagers about our many beautiful lakes. The curio department was very interesting especially to the younger classes, while the sight of tbe tallow dip, tbe old tin lantern, the foot stove, 'and irons, bake kettle, etc., brought to the minds of the older ones many familiar scenes ol by gone days around the old fire place, where the only music was tbe humming of the housewife accompanied by tbe whir of tbe spinning wheel and the singing of the kettle on the crane. They also had some rolls made at Dexter when the carding mill was doing service and several of tbe older ladies tried their hand at spinning to tbe wonderment and amusement of the younger ones many of whom had never seen the work. To close the entertainment Rev. Fr. Coraerford gave a very interesting as well as uplifting address On art, which was listened to very attentively. As a money making affair tbe Art Loan was not a big success, however tbe ladies made some money and gave tbe people a very interesting eyening.

Then he returned to Broadway. 8ti» debating with himself, he came to a narrow road which ran to the river, along the southern side of Van Heemskirk'B house. Coming swiftly up it, as if to detain him. was Capt. Hyde. The two men looked at esch ot&r defiantly; and Neil said with a foloL meaning emphasis: "At your service, sir." • "&r. Semple, at your service,"—and touching his sword,—"to the very htlt, fii r» "§ir, yours to the same extremity."

"I shall haye him at my. sword's point," he kept saying to himself as he turned from Hyde to Van Heemsklrk's house. kutherine feat upon the steps of the bto#p. Touching hor, to arouse her attention, Nell said, "Come with me doiijn the garden, my lpve." She looked at hfm wonderingly,, but rose at his request and gave him her hand. Then the tender thoughts which had lain so deep in his heart flew to his lips, and he woo'd her with a fervor and nobility as astonising to himself as to Katherine. He reminded her of ail the swaet intercourse of their happ£ lives, and of the fidelity with which he, had loved her. "Oh, my Katherine, ray sweet Katherine! Who is there tha^t can take you from me?" "No one will I marry. With ray father and my mother I will stay." "Yos, till you learn to love me as I love you, with the whole soul. You are to be my wife, Katherine?" "That 1 have not said." 'Katherine, is it true that Capt. Hyde is wearing a bow of your orange ribbon?" "Yea. A bow of my St. Nicholas rib^ bon I gave him." - - — "Why?" •'Me he loves, and him I love." "You have more St. Nicholas ribbons? Go and get me one. Get a bow, Katherine, and give it to me. I will wait here for it." "No, that I will not do. How false, how wicked I would be, if two lovers my colors wore!" "Well, then, I will cut my bow from Hyde's breast. I will, though I cut his heart out with it." He turned from her as he said the words, and, without speaking to Jorfs, passed through the garden gate to his own home. In the calm of his own chamber, through the silent, solemn hours, when the world was shut out of his life, Neil reviewed his position, hut he could find no honorable way out of the predicament. He was quite sen* slble that his first words to Capt Hyde that night had been intended to provoke a quarrel, and he knew that he would be expected to redeem them b> a formal defiance. However, as tie idea became familiar, it became imperative; sad at length it was with a fierce satisfaction he opened his desk and without hesitation wrote the decisive words: "To Capt Richard Hyde Of His Mejesi Ay's Service :- t My9tr-~A person of the character 1 tear cannot allow the treachery and (dishonorable conduct of which you have been guilty to pass without punishment. ' Convlace me that yon are store of a gentleman than I have reason to behove, by meeting me to-night as the'sun dreps in the wood on the KaJchhook Hill. Oar seconds can locate the spot; and that you may have no pretense to deiay, I send by bearer ^ ^ two swords, of .which I give you thhX^eaii ^ km-tea awar~at once/7 privilege to make choice. T ^ W B , V*I aesiea away at w w . "In the interim, at your service, "Nell Semple." He had already selected Adrian Beekmaa as his second, * young man of wealth aad good family. Bookman accepted the duty with alacrity, and, indeed, so promptly carried /out pi» principal's instructions, that* be, iound Capt. Hyde still sleeping when he watted, upon him. Hyde laughed lightly at "pr. Semple'a impatience of offehse, M and directed Mr. Beekmaa to Capt Sarle as his second; leaving the choice of swords and* of, the ground entirely to his direction. ' Lightly as Hyde had taken the challenge, he was really more disinclined to fight than Neil was. In his heart be knew that Semple had a just cause 01 anger; "but then," he argued, "I would not resign the girl for my life, for I am sensible that life, if she is another's, will be a very tedious thing to me." All day Neil was busy, in making his will and in disposing of his affairs. Hyde felt equally the necessity for some definite arrangement of his business. He owed many debts of honor, and Cohen's bill was yet unsettled. He drank a cup of coffee, wrote several Important letters, and then went to Praunce's, and had a steak and a bottle of wine. During his meal his thoughts wandered between Katherine and the Jew Cohen. After it he went straight to Cohen's store. It happened to be Saturday, and the shutters were closed, though the door was slightly open, and Cohen was-sitting with his granddaughter in the. cool shadows of the crowded place. Miriam retreated within the deeper shadows of seme curtains of stamped Moorish leather, for she anticipated th^ immediate departure of the intruder. She was thsrefore astonished when her grandfather, after listening to a few sentences, sat down, and entered into a lengthy conversation. When at last they rose, Hyde extended his hand. "Cohen," he said, "few men would have been as generous and, at thiis hour, as considerate as j£>u. I have judged from tradition, aaft< misjudged you. Whether we meeMigain or not, we part as friends." "You have settled all things as a gentleman, captain. May my white hairs say a word to your hear^ this hour?" Hyde bowed; and he continued, in a voice of serious benignity: "The words of the Holy One are to be regarded, and not the words of. men. Men call that 'honor* which Hi: will call murder. What excuse is there in your lips if you go this night into his presence? There was no excuse in Hyde's lips, even for his mortal interrogator. He merely bowed again, and slipped through the partially opened door Into the busy street. Miriam returned to her place and asked plainly, "What murder is there to be, grandfather?" "It is a duel between Capt. Hyde and another. It shall be called murder at the last." "The other, who is he?" "The young man, Semple. Oh, Miriam,- whatsin and sorrow thy sex ever bring to those who love it! There are two young lives to be put in death peril for the smile of a woman—a very girl she is." "Do I know her, grandfather?" "She passes here otten. The daughter of Van Heemskirk—the little fair one, the child." "Oh, but now I am twice sorry I She has smiled, at me often. We have even spoken." Cohen, with his hands on his staff, and his head in them, sat meditating, perhaps praying; and the hot,.silent moments went slowly away. In them, Miriam was coming to a decision which at first alarmed her, but which, as it grew familiar, grew also lawful and kind.

(tod help met God spare the Jad!" At that moment Neil and Hyde were on the total spot Neil flung off his coat and waistcoat and stood with bared breast on the spot his second indicated. Hyde removed hisfine scarlet coat and handed it to Capt Earle, aid would then have taken his sword; but Beekmaa advanced to remove also his waistcoat The suspicion implied by this act roused the soldier's indignation, and with his own hands he tore off the richly embroidered satin garment, and by so doing exposed what perhaps some delicate feeling had made him wish to conceal—a bow of orange ribbon which he wore above his heart. The sight of it to Neil was like oil flung upon flame. He could scarcely restrain himself until the word "go" gave him license to charge Hyde. Hyde was an excellent swordsman and had fought several duels; but he was quite disconcerted by the deadly reality of Neirs attack. In the second thrust his foot got entangled in a tuft of grass, and, in evading a lunge aimed at his heart, he fell on his right side. Supporting himself, however, en his sword hand, he sprang backwards with great dexterity, and thus escaped the probable death-blow. But, as he was bleeding from a wound in the throat, hi3 second interfered and proposed a reconciliation. Neil angrily refused to listen. He declared "he had not come to enact a farce;" and then, happening to glance at the ribbon on Hyde's breast, he swore furiously "He would make his way through the body of any man who stood between him and his just anger." Up to this point there had been in Hyde'B mind a latent disinclination to slay Neil. After it, he flung away every kind of memory, and the fight was renewed with an almost brutal impetuosity, until there ensued one of those close locks which it was evident nothing but "the key of the body could open." In the frightful wrench which followed, the swords of both men sprang from their hands, flying some four or five yards upward with the force. Both recovered their weapons at the same time, and both, bleeding and exhausted, would have again renewed the fight; but at that moment Van Heemskirk and Semple, with their attendants, reached the spot. Without hesitation, they threw themselves between the young men. But there was no need for words. Neil fell senseless upon his sword, making in his fall a last desperate effort to reach the ribbon on Hyde's breast; for Hyde had also dropped fainting to the ground, bleeding from at least half a dozen wounds. Then one of Semple's young men, who had probably divined the cause ot quarrel, and who felt a sympathy for nis young master, made as if he would pick up the fatal bit of orange satin, now dyed crimson in Hyde's blood. But Joris pushed the rifling hand fiercely away. "To touch it would be the vilest theft;" he said. "His own it is.

It was worth fifty dsllars to get to sit down. "I had no strength and a person 1 without strength is net much use.

That it is the> sense of this* SmvenUon that the government of the niteg States ahould take immediate steps to secure closer and more advantageous trade relations with Canada; and that reciprocal relations, beneficial to both coun£ri«e. should preferably follow the general iines of the removal by both countries of the duties on natural products of each, and such tnetual extensions- of the free list and reductions and changes of the duties on t h e manufactured products of both as will give to each as low a rate of duties as Is given to any other Country. Accordingly, we earnestly urge upon congress that action to this end be taken at once, either by reconvening the Joint high, .commission for the sole purpose of negotiating a reciprocity treaty with Canada, or. by adopting such other method as to congress may seem best. Resolved. Finally. That we reeard i*». negotiation of the reciprocity treaty with Newfoundland as a, moat important step in the right direction, and hope it may be promptly ratified. T h e Tfcaeawel* W a r . A Joint resolution Wars, offered In the house Thursday by Mr. Shafrotb, Colorado, authorising the president t o propose to Great Britain and Germany to submit their claims against Venezuela to arbitration and to guarantee the payment of the awards that may be found.' President Castro, of Venezuela, has replied t o the Joint ultimatum of Great Britain and Germany, and it is believed thnt he has defied the t w o jrreivt powers. More than 2.000 regular Vene- «uelan troops have been mobilized at La Guayra, the seaport of Caracas, the capital, and 18 guns nre, mounted there. Castro also has called upon all Vene- Buela.ua to take up arms. T o recruit the army, Castro has decreed a general amuesty. Castro, yielding to the representations of United State* Minister Bo>ven, has released all of the British and German subjects arrested Tuesday. The news of the sinking of the Venezuelan gunboats captured Tuesday has been confirmed, but the reason for this ai'tiou has not developed. The entire coast of Venezuela is now under blockade. The British cruiser Indefatigable is the only warship renin liting in the harbor at La Guayra. Xo United States warships will be seut to Venezuela unless an unexpected emergency should arise. Two more Venezuelan war vessels were captured by a British ship Thursday. A cablegram received, at the state department Friday from Minister Bowec at Caracas s*ays the Venezuelan government h a s requested h i m , to propose to Great Britain and Germany that the difflcultlec arising out of the claims for alleged damages and injuries to British and German subjects during the civil war be submitted t3 arbitration. This proposition will bo duly laid before, those governments, the state department acting merely a s a channel of communication. Xot much hope is entertained of the favorable reception of the proposition, as it is felt that the difficulty has progressed too far for a settlement b y the peaceful methods of arbitration. **I w a s taken from place to place and sold for a f e w dollars t o different iieopie," said Miss WelcK "For weeks at a time I wa:4<a prisoner and not allowed to leave the houses. When I attempted to escapo I w a s overpowered. Brown u«ed t o come a n d take all the money I bjul" The police believe tho girl w a s detained against her will and arrests may follow. Brown is said to have posed as a railroad employe. COVGRBSS. The house Saturday entered Qpon the consideration of the executive, legislative and Judicial appropriation bill, and made rapid progress, 50 of the 142 pages of the bill having been completed before adjournment. Several of the Democratic members voiced their protests against reporting a big appropriation bill one day and taking it up the next without affording sufficient time to members outside of the committee to properly examine it. No material amendments were offered. A favorable report w a s ordered on - the bill appropriating $500,000 for the use of the department of agriculture in stamping out the foot and mouth disei. ye In New England states. The item is included in a deficiency appropriation bill, and the bill also carries $500,- CO0 for pay of rural free delvery carriers and various smaller sums for miscellaneous expenses o ! the postotfice department.

Followed Natural Woodsman. When President Roosevelt waa oa a turkey hunt in the neighborhood of Bull Ron battlefield a couple of weeks ago he and a Mr. lfayden, with t guide, left the turkey tun and plunged into a stretch of woodland. After they had walked some miUvs Mr. Hayden said to the guide: "You've lost your way." ''Not a bit of it/' was the reply. "Oh, yet, you have. The sun it in the southwest at this time of day and wo should be going due east" Mr. Roosevelt said: "I always follow a man who steers in the woods by the sun or stars. I'll follow your leadership, Mr. Hayden." He did so and reached his destination in a bee line, to the guide's deep discomfiture. Only Trying Bait There are many ways of dabbling in the piscatorial art, but Abe Burlingame, who was up before Justice Rose for fishing on Sunday, gave a peculiar reason for his Sabbath operations. "You see, squire, I was experimenting on a new kind of bait for the-Beaver Creek fish. I tried It in the river and caught lota of fish, but It didn't work on Beaver Creek. "I was only experimenting with my bait when those people thought I was fishinV' he remonstrated. "That's certainly the best excuse I ever heard yet," replied the squire, and Burlingame was let off with a moderate fine as a reward for his loquacity.—East Liverpool Crisis. "DIAB MRS. PINKHAII:—It m with tbjmkfulnew I write that E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been of the greatest he , me. Sly work keeps me standing on my feet all day and the hours long. Some months ago it didnx seem as though I could stand i t I would get so dreadfuUy tired and my back ached so I wanted togc^eamt with the pain. When I got home at night I was so worn out I had lo S) right to bed, and I was terribly blue and downhearted. I was irregur and the flow was scanty, and I was pale and had no appetite. I Ipid a girl friend who was taking your medicine how I felt, and she said I ought to take it too. So I got a bottle of Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and commenced to take i t It helped me right off. After the first few doses menstruation started and was fuller than lor some time. It seemed to lift a load off me. My back stopped achmgAnd I felt brighter than I had for months. I took three bottmss in alt IHOW I never have an ache or pain, and I go out after work and have a good time. I am regular and strong and am thankful to you for tbe change. u I recommend Lydia E. Pinkham*t Veg«tabl«vCempound whenever I hear of a girl suffering, for I know how hard it is to work when you feel so sick."—Miss MAMIE KEIBNS, 663 9th Ave., New York City. Women should not fail to profit by the experiences of tnej* women; just as surely as they were cured of the troubles exttt» merated in their letters, just so certainly will Lydia E. Pinkhansr> Vegetable Compound cure others who suffer from womb troubles, Inflammation of the ovaries, kidney troubles, irregular and painful menstruation, nervous excitability, and nervous prostration; remember that it is Lydia E* Pinkham's Vegetable Com* pound that is curing women, and don't allow any druggist to •ell you anything else in its place. BUM Amanda T. Petterson, Box 131, Atwater, Minn*, says: "DEAB MRS. PINKHAH.—I hope that you will publish this testimonial so that it may reach others and let them know about your wonderful medicine. > M Before taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound I was troubled with the worst kind of fainting spells. The blood would rush to my head, was very nervous and always felt tired, had dark circles around eyes. u I have now taken several bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and am entirely cured. I had taken doctor's medicine for many years but it did me no good. a Please accept my thanks for this most excellent medicine which is able to restore health taeuffering women." No other female medicine in the world has received such widespread and unqualified endorsement.

Whether there is any foundation for the prejudice of women laborers in England against the female j appetite m labor inspector is immaterial. The prejudice exists, says the Queen, and is sometimes displayed in strictly feminine fashion. In England, where legislation is concerned with laundries, a female inspector, after much argument, persuaded the head of a small establishment to show her over the fremises. The superintendent threw open the door of a steaming kitchen in which there were some half dozen washerwomen bending over tubs.

Ammonia is of such great value in household matters that no housekeeper should fail to keep a supply always at hand. For instance, a few drops put into the bath water will make it most invigorating. Its uses in cleaning and removing grease are manifold. When a freshly oiled sewing machine has left yellow stains on the fabric- sewed, these can he removed by rubbing them Qver with a little liquid ammonia and then washing in the ordinary way. Again, a teaspoonful of ammonia in a cupful of water will clean gold or silver jewelry, and a few drops on the underside of a diamond will clean it immediately and increase its brilliancy. When acid has been spilt on cloth and has taken out the color, ammonia should be applied to the spot, after which a little chloroform rubbed on will in almost all cases restore the color. Clover Decoration. Very prettv and delightfully simple in effect is a water set in Austrian glass. There's a rather tall pitcher and six glasses, and the glass is frosted.

She had followed her to give her comfort, to weep with her; but she felt that hour that Katherine was no more a child to be soothed with her mother's ki3s. She had become a woman, and a woman's sorrow had found her. It was near ten o'clock when Joris came home. His face was troubled, his clothing disarranged and bloodstained; and Lysbet never remembered to have seen him so completely exhausted. "Bram'" is with' Nell," he said, "he will rot be home." "And thou?" "1 helped them carry—the other. To the 'King's Arms' we took him." "Live will he?" "His heft lung is pierced through. A bad wound in the throat he has. But then, youth he has, and a great spirit, end hope. I wish not for his death, my God knows." "Neil,, what of him?" "Unconscious he was when I left him at his home. Does Katherine know?" "She knows." "How, then?" "O Joris, if in her room thou could have heard her crying! My heart for her aches, the sorrowful one!" "See, then, that this lesson s>e miss not. It is a hard one, but learn' it she must If thy love would pass it by, think this, for her good it is." The next morning was the sabbath, and many painful questions suggested themselves to Joris and Lysbet Van Heemskirk. Joris felt that he must not take his seat among the deacons until be had been fully exonerated of all blame of blood-guiltiness by the dcmlnie and his elders and deacons In full kirk session. Madam could hardly endure the thought ot the glances that would be thrown at her daughter, and the. prohebie>alights *ao would receive, so Katherfne'f piteous ^entreaty was listened to. and she, WAS allowed to remain at home:' The kirk that morm*ngawo»*fl been the pillory to her. She was unspeakably grateful for the solitude of the house, for space and silence, m which she could have the relief of unrestrained weeping. About the middle of , the morning, she heard Bram's footsteps. Beam had not thought of Katherfne'f staying, from kirk, and when s$u> confronted him, so tear-stained and-woe-bejone, his heart waa fall of pity for ier.

And thou? Wilt thou, also scold me? I thick I shall die of grief." "Scold txeet thou little one? That X will not. And those that are angry with thee may be angry with me also," "Bram! my Bram! my brother! There is one comfort for me,—it I knew that he still lived; if one hope thou could give mef* ""*'". "What hope there is, I will go and see, and, if there Is good news, I will b<: glad for thee." Not half an hour was Bram away; and yet, to the miserable girl, how grief and fear lengthened out the moments! When Bram came back, it was with a word of hope on his lips. "I have sean," he said, "who dost thou think?—-the Jew Cohen. He of all men, he has sat by Capt. Hyde's side all night; and he has dressed the wound the English surgeon declared 'beyond mortal skill.' And he said to me, 'Three times, in the Persian desert, I have cured wounds still worse, and the Holy One hath given me the power of healing; and, if He wills, the youi'g man Ehall recover.' That is what he said, Katherine." "Forever I will love the Jew. Though he fail, I will love him. So kind he is, even to those who have not spoken well, uor done well, to him." At tils moment the family returned from the morning service and Bram rather defiantly drew his sister to his side. Joris was not with them. He had stopped at the "King's Arms" to ask if Capt. Hyde was still alive; for, in spite of everything, the young man's heroic cheerfulness in the agony of the preceding night had deeply touched Joris. No one spoke to Katherine; even her mother was annoyed and humiliated at the social ordeal through which they had just passed, and she thought it only reasonable that the erring girl should be made to share the trial. As the time went on poor Katherine Van Heem skirk shivered and sickened in the presence of averted eyes and uplifted shoulders, and in that chill atmosphere of disapproval which separated her from the sympathy and confidence of her old friends and accuaintances. "It is 'thy punishment," said her mother, "bear it bravely and patiently. In a little while, it will be forgot." But weeks went on, and the wounded men slowly fought death away from taeir piilows, and Katherire did not recover the place in social estimation which she had l03t through the ungovernable tempers of her lovers But nothing ill lasts forever; and in three months Neil Semple was in his office again, wan and worn with fever and suffering, and*wearing bis sword arm in a slirg, but still decidedly world-like and life-like. It was evident that public opinion was in a large measure with him, and though in the Middle Kirk the affair was sure to be the subject of a reproof, and of a suspension of its highest privileges, yet it was not difficult to feel the sympathy often given to deeds publicly censured, but privately admired. Joris remarked this spirit with V little astonishment and dipsent. He could not find in his heart any excuse for cither Neil or Hyde; and, when the elder enlarged with some acerbity upon the requirements of honor among" men, JcHs offended him by replying: "Well, then, elder, little I think of that 'honor* which runs not wUh. the laws of God and country.?* "Let me tell you, Joris, the *voice of the people is the voice of God/ in a measure; and you may see with your ain e'en that it mair that acquits Neil o' wrong-doing.

It was only after both men were known to be recovering, that she ventured to kirk; and her experience there was not one which tempted'' her to try the streets and the stores, Howr ever, no interest is a living interest in" a community but politics; and far more important events had now the public attention. During the previous March r the Stamp Act and the Quartering Act had passed both houses of Parliament; and Virginia and Massachusetts, conscious of their dangerous character, had roused thefeexs of the other Provinces; and a convention of their delegates was.appointed to meet during October in New York. It was tais Important session which drew Neil Setnpie, with scarcely healed wounds from his chamber. The streets were noisy with hawkers crying the detested Acts, and crowded with groups ot stern-looking men discussing them. It was during, this time of excitement that Katherine said one morning, at breakfast, "Bram, wait one minute for me. I am going to Kip's store for my mbtner." At the store, Bram left her, e«d after selecting tae goods her mother needed, Katherine was going up Pearl street, when she heard herself called it: a familiar and urgent voice. At the 8arqe moment a door was flung open", and Mrs. Gordon, ninnrafe down the few steps, put her hand upon the girl's shoulder. "Oh, my dear, this is a piece of good fortune past belief! Come Into my lodgings. Ohv Indeed you shall! I will have no excuse. Surely you owe Dick and me some reward after tae paxgs we have suffered for you." She was leading Katherine into the house as she spoke; and Katherine had not the will, and therefore not tho power, to oppose her. She placed the girl by her side on the sofa; sac took her hands, and, with a genuine grief and love, told her all that "poor Dick" had suffered and was still suffering for her sake. Katherine covered her face, and sobbed with a hopelessness and abandon that equally fretted Mrs. Gordon. . "If I could only see Richard,—only see him for one moment!" "That Is exactly what I am going to propose. He will get better when be has seen you. I will call a coach, and we will go at once." "Alas! Go I dare not. My father and my mother!" "And Dick,—what of Dick, poor Dick, who is dying for you?" She went to the door and gave the order for a coach. "Your lover, Katherine. Child, have you no heart? Put on your bonnet again. Here also are my veil and cloak. No one will perceive that it is you. It is the part of humanity, I assure you. Do so much for a poor soul who is at the grave's mouth." While thus alternately urging and persuading Katherine, the coach came, the disguise was assumed, and the two drove rapidly to the "King's Arms." Hyde was lying upon a couch which had been drawn close to the wjndow. He was yet too weak to stand, too weak to endure long the strain of company or books or papers. He heard his aunt's voice and footfall, and felt, as he always did, a vague pleasure in her advent. Whatever of life came into his chamber of suffering came through her. She brought him daily such intelligences aa she thought conducive to his recovery; and it must be acknowledged, that it was not always her "humor to he truthful.'* For Hyde had so craved news of Katherine, that she believed he would die' wanting it; and she hid therefore fallen, without ope consdetftloos scruple, into the reporter's temptsv' tion,—Inventing the thinge wblon ought to nave taken place, and did not.

But she had gathered e idea at the Woman's club, during protracted and heated discussion on e subject, that it was the duty of every woman to assume the guardianship of at least one embryo human being, for the, purpose of training it according to the standard recogr. ized by the<!lub, in. the right way, offtrarse, and thud-save an immortal foul from contamination by the wickedness of the world, which was badly in need of malting over again. Besides that, the lady had noticed the waning influence' of the dog, cat and bird to keep Mr. Wertheimer at home tn the evenings. Hence, Mrs. Wertheimer thought a baby' in the bouse Bright accomplish a double object, to wit: A halo and a stay-at-home busfcaftd. > '• Kow It so happened that Mr. John Hopklna bad more children than he eouM care for; haM -a doaen of them reaching up lik^the^atapAof a ladder, all vigorously healthy and constantly clamoring for something to eat and wear.

When Mr. Wertheimer returned home after his day'a toil on the evening in question, he was amased to find sprawling on the floor, surrounded with soft pillows, a chubby-faced, blue-eyed infant, with little wisps of golden curb hanging around a shapely head. "Great Caesar?'* he exclaimed. "What's the row anyway? Have you started a menagerie?" "This is our baby," exclaimed Mrs. Wertheimer, relating her experience and intentions. "Well; now we'll have some fun and life around the house," said he, getting down on the floor to investigate the new plaything. "She's mighty pretty, anyway," was his decision. In a few moments he was mixed up with baby, dog and cat in such a noisy revel that his wife, with an expression of disapproval, came'in from the kitchen, where she had gone to prepare supper. "John, I didn't know you could make such a fool of yourself. Just look at your clothes, all lint and dust, and you are making more noise than the whole lot put together. Have you no consideration for the neighbors?" "Well, what did you get her for. if you don't want me to play with her?" And he laughed good-naturedly. "I cant just sit and look at her; that ain't enough." "I took her," responded his wife Beverly, "because it is our duty to make a home for some child ttfat didn't have a good one. You'll make such * fuss over this oae that it will soon be spoiled, and I want it to grow up gpodSand sensible. I have my own ideas about its training. Come, get up, supper's ready." For two weeks Mr. Wertheimer lived to- paradise, and, strange to say,, he never once went out in the evening. But. not so Mrs. Wertheimer. Babies nequirea good deal of case and atten- ,Uon; she had not ealnsssltii 0» this, and her idea of duty bacsane very did net make any difference; the baby bad wedged ia between them, and she was crowded out of her rightful, though unappropriated place. The matter rankled in Mrs. We*- theimer's mind, and the thought of getting rid of it grew in her'heart So it was, that one night when Mr. Wertheimer had hurried home, ready for a. romp before supper, there were no signs of life in the house; no barking dog, no singing bird, no crowing baby. "Where's baby?" he inquired of his stem-faced wife, with a sudden mis* trust in his heart "Oh, yes, it always -baby,-baby, nothing but baby/' answered the woman, petulantly. "I suppose you wouldn't have cared if I had caught my death of cold, or worked my fingers to the bone waiting on it, as long as you could have something to play with. I made up my mind last njght, after I had gotten up three times to attend to it, that I would not be imposed upon any longer, so this morning I took it to the Foundling Asylum and " "You—took—that—poor—child to an asylum?" stammered Mr, Wertheimer with sudden anger and a curl of contempt on his lips. "You took that little motherless child to a public in stitution after promising its. fathert that you would take its mother's place? I thought every woman hai some love in her heart, if not for her husband, then at least for a helpless babe, but you—a nice religion you have, with all your prating about Christian duty and charity—it is despicable." Mrsi Wertheimer was appalled at this Outburst from her husband who had always been kind and gentle, and his contemptuous look and bitter language frightened her. Womanlike, She began to cry, at which her husband' softened and looked surprised. It was the first time he had ever seen tears in her eyes. Could it be possible that she had a heart? "Martha, I said more than I should have; pardon me. Never mind about the baby, it's only one more disappointment and I will live through it." With that he turned away, but his wife,' whose eyes were opened to the full significance of what she had done, called him back and putting her hands upon his shoulders looked him full In the face, with a strange, unwonted expression in her eyes. and 1 will go tbls moment and get the child again." The woman's habitual reserve melted under the tender caress of her husband. "Dear wife, 1 have always loved :eu, but it seemed to me that you did hot love me, you were so—no, I will no* say-it, because I know now that I was wrong. My heart is big enough for both you and the, baby, so- let us go after it before we do anything else." But the baby was not there, another visit," said Mrs. Wertheimer, with many misgivings. But when she had entered, she heard a baby's soft gurgle, and a«rs> enough, there was her baby on the bed In an inner room, as sweet and as dfmnled as ever, making the beat of H in her strange quarters. Mrs. Wertheimer told her story and begged Mrs. Harris to let her have the baby tack.

He was so mad that he went away this morning without kissing me good-by, a thing he has uever done before," and she wept at *he terrible recollection. Then rcov* ering herself, she snapped out: "Take it away. I .never want to see another baby." When Mr. Wertheimer returned that evening, there was the baby in l.er accustomed place on the floor, with the dog performing his old tricks, and the bird splitting its "throat with melody, the cat purring an accompaniment But what was more to him, there was his wife who met him at the door with a loving caress, something that had not happened since their honeymoon, a lone time before. "Hurrah for the baby!" he shouted. "This Is what I call a happy family." Mrs. Wertheimer put the baby in his arms. "It is our New Year's baby, dear nusband," she said softly; "my cruel conduct " "No more of that," said Mr. Wertheimer, hugging wife and baby together.

In the far north in Ma; and June immense numbers of eider ducks fly along the coast bound for their breeding grounds far to the east of Point Barrow. At this season every person, male and female, is supplied with, the Eskimo implement called by them ke-love-i-tow-tin, which is made as follows: Eight balls threequarters of an inch in diameter are cut from ivory or bone, with a tip or ear through which a hole is drilled. Eight strands of finely braided sinew are tied to these halls. At the opposite ends - the strands are brought together, each of exactly the same length, and tied to ten or twelve quills of some sea fowl, when the implement is ready for use. The bunch of quills is grasped with the right hand, while the fingers of the left comb out the strand, and when all clear the balls are held between the forefinger and the thumb. This is done in a few seconds when a flock of ducks are seen approaching. When the game is near enough, with a quick circular motion just the same as throwing a stone with a sling, the missile is launched among the flying birds; when, if one of these strands crosses the neck or the wing of a duck, it brings it to the ground, where it is then captured. The action of the air on the strings tends to separate the balls in their flight so that they cover quite a space, and if the birds are bunched they often bring one down, and the boy or girl that can do this is proud and happy.—Forest and Stream. "The Life For Me." [A song.] When summer smiles and dimple* sweet And skies are fair and blue, When all the earth Is gay with flowers Of radiant shade and hue, When birds and bees and butterflies Are out at work and play And all the fresh and busy world Qoes singing on Its way, Oh, then in summer's scented air How happy I can be I The pleasant, careless outdoor life— Oh, that's the life for me! When winter frowns and putts hi* cheeks And bitter north winds blow, When springtime sleeps beneath the shroud Of cold and glistening snow, When dull and chill the sunset fades And stars gleam far and bright And living creatures shelter seek From winter's cheerless night, With friends and work and books loved How happy I can bet The cozy, cheery life at home— Oh, that's the life for me! —Maria Elsie Ball in St. Nicholas. mtmm%- AtMUAL MEETtMB: • #*fWHrw#psj» MS S> S> r r l f w l II i i^i • i » M t « m . • The asaaal meeting of tbs Livingaton Count/ Mutual Ft*e Iasuranee Company* for the election of offioeta and for the transection ot snob other business as may legally oome before it, will be held at the court house ia the village of Howell; in said county.

To the children who today go to school and are taught in well explained lessons it would seem strange if their grandmas should tell them over again the funny way that examples were given when they went to. school. In those days children had to think harder and were given much less help with their studies than they are now. During your grandma's schooldays she never had racks of beads and nice sticks as objects by which addition and subtraction could be made clear. She never had trial examples shown by diagrams at the beginning of each new portion of arithmetic, but had to put on her thinking cap and study them out. Now, here is one example, something like those grandma had to work, and when you see it try to Set the answer, and if you cannot ike it to her, and it is safe to say she will tell you how to commence to work it: My grandfather is 112 years of age, and my father is just sixtyfour. I am not as old as my grandfather by eighty-two years. What is the difference in years between me and my father? Omelet Cooked In a Hat State that yon are about to cook an omelet; then you break four eggs in a hat, place the hat for a short time over the flame of a candle and shortly after produce s an omelet completely cooked and quite hot. Some pergpni *UL be credulous enough l o believe that By the help of certain ingredients you have been enabled to cook the omelet without fire, but the secret of the trick is that the omelet had been 8eeing the King. One day during the harvest King George III. rode by himself into the country. He saw a woman working alone. His majesty asked her why she was working alone. She said that her companions had gone to see the king, as they had heard he was in the neighborhood. Then he asked her why she had not gone to see the king. She said, "I have five children to provide for, and I cannot afford to lose a day's work." The king put some money into her hand and said, "Tell your companions when they come back that inj'or Sale* Oummings cutting box, carriers, elevators etc., suitable for engine or horse power.

The eggs were empty ones, the contents having been previously extracted by being drawn through a small aperture. But to prevent the company from suspecting this the operator should, as if by accident, let a full egg fall upon the table, which, breaking, induces a belief that the others are also full. One of "the Finest" "The nicest man I ever saw," Said little Nan to me. "Is the one who stands outside our school When we're let out at three. "He's dressed just as the soldiers are; He wears gold buttons, top, And he stands up so proud and straight, The way the soldiers do. • "He always says, 'Come, little kids, I'U take you 'cross street.' And X guess 'cause Fm the littlest girl He always holds my hand. "And all the cars arid horses stop; He's so big they don't dare To say, 'Get up!' and drive 'em on, Because he's standing there.

Edith took her grandmother, who has come on from Maine for a visit, into the parlor and showed her the head of a lion done in crayon. Edith made the picture and is proud of it. Grandma adjusted her spectacles and gazed admiringly at the drawing. "You don't know what it is, grandma," Edith said. "Don't know what it is!" responded the old lady testily.

The crown princess of Saxony fled from her home on the night of Dec. 11 and so completely vanished that no trace of her has as yet been found. The little kingdom is all torn up over her disappearance, and stories of elopement with a French tutor are rife. All Europe Is trying to locate the missing woman.

President Roosevelt has let it b? known that before he reached his decision to send the, Cuban reciprocity treaty to the senate and not to the together has not enough for itself/ but falls short by about 2,620,000 tons.

The street was filled with Christmas shoppers and Potter's body narrowly missed striking several people as it fell. An unfinished letter to his mother in St. Joseph, Mich., was found in Potter's room. After stating that he arrived in Chicago and was well/with the exception of a headache, he said: "I guess I will have to lay off writing for a minute or BO and get a breath of fresh air." Potter was the son of C. P. Porter, at one time a leading lawyer of Berrien county, Mich., who met with n mysterious death at Salt Ui!:e City. Utah. last summer. . Crown Princess Confesses. It Is reported in Dresden that th» crown princess of Saxony left for her husband a written confession of her relations with' M. Giron, together with a declaration of her unalterable Intention of never returning to the Saxon court. The court has no official information as to the present whereabouts of the princess, but it is known here that she is going to Mentone, France, to reside. The court is at present concerned with considerations as to the pealed to to grant an absolute divorce. The sympathy of the people of Dresden seems wholly with the priDce*s, who is of a cheerful, pleasure-seeking disposition. The crown prince loved to torment her. of the house and the members of his cabinet. After mature consideration, it was determined that It was unnecessary to send the Cuban treaty to the house, notwithstanding the fact that it affected revenues of the government. Precedents were looked up carefully. It was found that previous reciprocity treaties had been sent directly to the senate for ratification. This was notably true of the Newfoundland treaty, which is regarded as being on a footing with the Cuban treaty. No objection ever was raised to the considers-! coxm?\*tsr> X K W S . Nero, suid to be the largest dog in the world, and who weighed 281 pounds, is dead. He was the property of Judge Bailey, of Rutland. to send a message to both branches of congress with a recommendation for such enabling legislation as will make the treaty operative. This will afford the house full opportunity, It is expected, to stamp with Its approval and its individuality the negotiations for reciprocity with Cuba. Toledo Ladles Swindled. Many women of Toledo who had managed to put away a few thousand dollars to provide against the future are now sorrowing because they made the acquaintance of a man who called himself Dr. D. Sickles Brownlee. They say he left the city suddenly with something like 120,000 of cold cash In his satchel. All that bis victims have to show for their investments are a few beautifully engraved certificates which entitle them to a certain number of sharc-j of stock in a company which they declare has no existence. Brownlee called his company the "Great Western Irrigating and Gold Mining Syndicate of Cripple Creek, Colo." A quiet investigation has been made by relatives and friends of some of the women, and they say they have learned that no one in Cripple Creek ever heard of the concern. . More Con! Mine* OtfnMed.

It was half past fire In the evening.' More than one pair of eyes noted the chance, meeting npon the stdelraflc. ^toe-totuskman clUnbedJ»ck to hi* aeat, muttering to Himself. He was waiting for his employer, Henry Maybee, the railway magnate. At last Maybee came out into the open air rejoicing in his liberty. As he opened his carriage door, for himself, Maybee was arrested by the sound of honest Joyce's voice. *Tve Just seen **iss Salome, sir." "Where," asked Maybee, looking up and down the street. "She came out of that big door, sir, as hour ago, and she stopped and asked after the children, and then went her way without saying anything about herself." "Well—which way?" May bee's voice was anxious. "Just down street—that way," said the man. "Very good, thank you, Joyce." "She do be workln' in this big place," said Joyce. Mti. Maybee stepped into the carclosed the door; and Joyce Iveu. p the reins for tho home- • * * • * BeforeAhe firo sat Lewis, the rich man's son. He looked up when his father came in. Kfs salutation was but an indifferent murmur. The elder man affected a brisk cheerfulness. He drew his chair to the fire, threw the evening papers to Lewis, and feigned not to otice that they dropped npon the rug. "How are you, and has the doctor been hero to-day?" inquired the father. Tes, father, same old story." answered the young man. "Advises a ohange, and all that—" "Ton must have a change," began the elder Maybee— **Qulet acd reft would be a change." sighed Lewis. "I've been traveling these six months—and I'm tlrea of new things. Let me stay here. I like the sameness cf, life that the doctor complains of." His face drooped again—the pale, listless- faee. - He saf down far back In his deep chair, and to his father's ear there came the whispering sound of a half stifled sigh. Henry Maybee, too, bowed his head, and sat looking Into the fire. Then he telephoned to Dr. Betl, mrtc* ing the old physician to come and see him, that evening. If possible. When the two friends were seated together in Mr. Mayfeee*s stady, the I "rn love," said the father, laconically. -' "And a hard case," the doctor muttered, "lasts a good while—travel, change, other women, sea voyage, and no yielding. The thing has become chronic—got on his nerves—lowered his vitality—unless we can rouse him, he's gone." "Gone! What do you mean?" "Gone!" repeated the doctor. "Gone?" said the father, in a trembling voice sot at all like his awn. : • ~ — - — - —- ----- "Gone for good!" said the doctor, with decision. "But Doctor," expostulated Mr. May* bee, rallying, 'Men have died and worms have eaten them, but not for love'—" "All nonsense!" said the doctor. "Hank nonsense, and no one knew *Tvo soen Miss Salome, sir." railroad man began without any ifs or buta: "What shall I do with fcewn, Doet o r r ''What's the matter with h i m r asked Dt, Bell. \ ."What's the matter with hlmt Why, you're hit physician and ought * to '!" retorted Mr. Maybee. "What's tlte real matter with h i m r persisted tfc* doctor., "Unless we can reuse him, he's gone." it hotter than Shakespeare, who put tho word3 into the mouth of a coquette. Men have died for love, thousands of 'em. Some one way, some another—by wars, by dissipation, by suicidal hard work, .by loss of Interest in life—a hundred ways— your boy's going the way of indifference." He paused, nghast at the effect of his words. Mr. Maybee looked the stricken man that he was. At last he spoke: "He's in love with that minx, Salome, my ward— t:.e girl from out West, you know, and she's run away from him and from me—I was glad when she went. She would have made his life wretched and mine unbearable, and i told her so!" "Well, I must be going—" the doctor said after a silence. "A case or tTro to see before 1 go to bed." "Do you mean what you say about Lewis, Doctor? You know he is my all—I am alone but for him. Can't you think of something?" "We've tried everything," replied j. Dr. Bell. "There's nothing to do but let htm alone. Perhaps he'll pull out of it himself If we give tim timo. Anyway he will if he's the right sort of man, and if be isn't—" "Don* say that, Doctor, he's my eon!" Mr. Maybee was white and aged in look. The blow Trad been sudden, this serious turn in what he had regarded as a piece of silly nonsense. He sank back in hi.* great leather chair, when he had said goodnight to the doctor. Deep thought took hold of.him. He had no particular grievance against Salome Mclntyre. Her father had left her to tne care of his old friend, aad after she came from college she bad settled in the Maybee home, which was ntled, as to its do* mestlc affairs, by Aunt Sophie—an ancient widowed poor relation cf great pride aad- self-importance. All had gone well until LewLs came home from his trip around the world. He fell an easy victim to Salome's big blue eyes and pretty ways. The father saw nt once what bad happened. ' Hit plans for hie ton were gadly Interfered with. He tried to paek 8alome away on a visit to* her western friends, bat the girl wouldn't go. Then he had what he called a "business talk" with, her. He explained how little money ahe had and toM what pains ha had been oblige* to take to Jart for her even that, tad talked abottther earning her own way, and the upshot of* the business talk was, that Salome left the house,, bag and baggage. She wrote Cor an aa> counting as to her small property, throfegh an attorney. /Mr.. Maybee promptly turned the matter over to hi J attorney and the lawyers settled the whole affair within a month- 8a- Mr^ pr^parad hersetf. and want to^ work as a stenographer, but she announeed her plana to no one. Lewis, easily lad to believe that Salome had fled before his loyer-Uke attitude, was in , despair. He was trotted here, and galloped there, South, JBaat, Watt and North, by sea, by land, in foreign countries and at home, and he grew daily into settled invalidism. That was the outcome of "business methods'* In a love affair. So, with bead on his breast, the old man sat. As the clock struck eleven he heard his son's lagging step in the,hall and on the stairway, as he went to hit sleeping-room. The next day, Mr. Maybee said to Joyce: ''Wait for me at the western door ox the Wampum Building. Wait from Cve to six, and if you see Miss Salome Mclntyre—why tell me when I come out." "Yes, sir," said Joyce, his small black eyes twinkling. As Salome worked as a stenographer, In the Wampunf Bn11d1n«««and a very pocr stenographer, If the truth were to be told—of course Joyce saw her come out of the door, as she did on this, aa on every other evening, at half past five. He pretended not to notice her, and accordingly she took no note of him, but walked quickly away—her cheeks reddening in the keen fresh air. Two days after, when Salome came down frcm her work she was met at the big. outer door by Mr. Maybee. "Salome," he said, "Won't you come homo to dinner? Here's Joyce with the carriage." And before she could apeak he had opened the carriage door, and was helping her into i t "I shall walk," announced the old gentleman, as he slammed the door shut. Lewis sat inside of that carriage, and Salome found it out even before she heard the door slam. o • • u * At the wedding, Dr. Bell was one cf the few guests outside of the Maybee family. The keen-eyed medical man saw nothing to disturb his opinion of himself. Lewis was a well and a happy man. That was certain. And next to him in joyous content stood his father.

While Attorney James Lindsay Gordon was waiting in the corridors of the county courthouse last week for a negligence case in which he appeared to be called, he explained "contributory negligence" to an inquirer in the language of an old Virginia negro preacher. "The parson's salary had been running far behind and he was manifesting no little uneasiness about it. Mild expostulation failed to accomplish results. Finally one Sunday the deacons had an unusually pocr offering, and as the parson surveyed It he~\ " 'Do trouble wif dis hynh church, brethren and sistern, am de contributory negligence of the congregation.' "'Wha' yo' mean by dat, pahson?' Inquired the senior Deacon. " 'I mean jes' what I sed,' repeated the parson emphatically. 'When de plate am passed around nearly all of dem neglects to contribute.'"—Philadelphia Ledger. A Tramping Bishop. Bishop Leighton Coleman of the tylscopal diocese of Delaware is a man who believes that the surest and most direct way to get at the masses of the people and know their needs and how to meet them is to go down among the people and live their life, as near as may be, and see for yourself. Every year the bishop dons a rough suit of clothes and starts on an expedition out somewhere In some remote region away from the beaten routes of travel. His latest tour was 200 miles in the mountains of Virginia, Tennessee and North Carolina, all on foot. He travels incognito, stopping over night wherever he finds it most convenient, and mingling with all sorts of people. The result of years ot these experiences has been to make the worthy bishop of Delaware one of the broadest, most far-sighted and greatest-hearted men in the ranks of his profession.—Leslie's Weekly.

She was walking majestically down Twenty-third street last week with her arms full of bundles, looking the picture of content. In the hands that held up her corduroy skirt was clasped a thin chain, much like a dog chain; but instead of the regulation poodle, pug, or St. Charles spaniel trotting along at the other end, was a small boy of perhaps Ave years, who, whenever fascinated by the alluring attractions along his route the maternal hand gave the chain a gentle tog, and the small boy obediently answered the mate inJnscUna.-~N«w York Times.

And so quickly, to Quickly, went the happy moments,!, Ere Katherine had half said, "Move thee," Mrs. Gordon reminded her that it was near the noon. "Then we must part, my Kathorlne, for a little. When will you come again?" This was a painful question, because Katherine felt, that, however sie might excuse herself for the unforeseen stress of pity that all unaware had hurried her into this Interview, she knew she could not find the same apology for one deliberate an»f. ?;•$• arranged. "Only once more," Hyde plead*\1. *'I had, my Katherine, so many t'airgs to say to you. In my joy, I forgot all. Come but once more. Upon my honor, I promise to ask Katherine Van Heemskirk only this once. To-morrcw? 'No/ Two days hence, then?" "Two days hence I will come again. Then no more/' He smiled at her, and put out his hand3; and she kteit again by his side, and kissed her "farewell" eu his lip3, And, as she put on again her cloak and veil, he drow a small volume towards him, and with trembling hands tore out of it a scran of paper; and gave it to her. Under the lilac hedge that night she read It, read it over and over,—the bit o-: paper made almost warm and sentient by Phoedria's tender petition to his beloved: "When you are in company v.ith that other man, behave as if you weru absent; but continue to lovo me by day and by night; want me, dream of me. expect me, think of me, wish for me, delight in me, be wholly with me: in short, be my very soul. *a I am yeurs," CHAPTER Vlil.

But, even as they spoke, Earle joined Mrs. Gordon, at a call from her; and Katherine noticed tbat a door near which thty stood was open, and that they went into the room to which it led, and that other voices then blended with theirs. But these things were as nothing. She was with her lover, j alone for a moment with him; aud Richard had never before seemed to her half so dear or half so fascinating. "My Katharine;* he said, "I have one tormenting thought. Night and day it consumes me like a fever. I [ hear that Neil Semple is well. They will make you marry him, my darling." "No; that they can never do." "But I suffer in the fear; I suffer a thousand deaths. If you were only my wife, Katherine!" "Oh, my lovo, my love!" "Sec how I tremble, Katherine.

A cccch was in waiting, and in a few minutes they stood together at Hyde's door. There was a sound of vcices within; and, when they entered, Katherine saw, with a pang of disappointment, a fine, soldierly looking man in full uniform sitting by Richard's side. But Richard appeared to be in no way annoyed by his company.

By bit side was CoL Gordon, and Mrs.v Gordon and Capt Earle followed, t h e ceremony was full of solemnity, and of that deepest joy which dims the eyes with tears, even while it wreathes the lips with smiles. During it, Katherine knelt by Richard's aide: and;, eveqy eye war Ixed upon him, for*fce was almost fainting with the fatigue of his emotions; and It was with fast receding consciousness that he whispered rapturously at Its close, "dy wife, my Wife!" • Throughout the sleep of exhaustion which followed, she sat watching ntra.; The band of gold about her finger fascinated her. She was now really Richard's wife; and the first sensation of such a mighty change was, in her pure soul, one of infinite and reverent love. When Richard awoke, he was refreshed and supremely happy. The coach was waiting; and, without delay, Katherine returned with Mrs. Gordon to her lodgings, and then home. As time went on, without being watched, Katherine felt herself to be under a certain amount of restraint! If she proposed a walk into the city, Joanna or madam was sure to have the same desire. She was not forbidden to visit Mrs. Gordon, but events were so arranged as to make the visit almost impossible; and only once, during the month after her marriage, had she had an interview with here husband. For even tiydeV Impatience had recognized the absolute necessity of circumspection. The marriage license had been obtained frem the governor, but extraordinary, influence had been used to procure it.

Then, in a whisper, "Richard sends his devotion. And put your hand in my muff; there is a letter. And pray give me joy; I have just secured an invitation. I asked the councillor and madam point blank for It. Faith, I think I am a little of a favorite with them! How is the young Bruce? My dear, if you don't make him suffer, I shall never forgive you.

Now, adieu: Return to your evergreens and ribbons." And so,; lightly humming Katherine's favorite song, she left the busy house.

XXX Sympathy. When we ourselves suffer we feel that we have an imperative claim on others for relief, if relief is In their power, or for kndness at their bands. if relief is not; and when we imagice the suffering of another, we cannot help feeling the same claim come back to us, umtftered in force. Probably there are none who have no such feeling; probably there are few who try deliberately to suppress or resist it, but probably there are many who try to satisfy it in some easy, inadequate way. The'easiest way is that of money-giving "charity," and if money could extinguish all needs, if what we call "charity" could discharge all claims of man upon man for help and kindness, it is quite possible that the giving might be raised to an abounding sum. But moneygiving "charity," even when it is well directed, can go a very little way toward dealing with misfortune, distresses and sufferings, as we would wish to have them dealt with if they cam© upon ourselves, and a great part of such easily rendered "charity" is so ill-directed as to do more harm than good. The help that is wanted most often from man to man is cot out of the pocket, but straight from the heart; it is the help of knowledge, judgment, experience; it is help from the stronger and better instructed to the ignorant and weak; it is helpfulness toward self-help; it is encouragement and cheer; it is teaching and counsel; it is sympathy made manifest; it is fellowship and hearty good will. It calls for the giving of time, care, thought, effort; it may interrupt cur occupation, it may break in on our pleasures; its claims may often be disturbing to our comfortable ease. Yet if we feel toward our fellows as we would have them feel toward us, we cannot wish to be free from such claims. From "A Primer of Right and Wrong," by J. N. Lamed.

Be cot put out if others do not act always as you wish Lay your account for many contrary wines; check ourself at once when you find passion rising; keep it down with a high hand. Be not satirical or sullen or silent, when something is amiss. Try to overcome that pettishness which is often worse than sudden anger—a sitting still for half an hour without saying a word —the unkind look, the refusal to be pacified, the sharp, curt "Yes" or "No." Nor is it fitting that a Christian should manifest a cold, freezing manner. Natural temperament has much to do with this; but surely it is more Christ-like to manifest love as well as feel it. An icy chillness deadens sympathy and cuts up by the root many of life's purest pleasures; it hinders usefulness and puts a stumbling block in the way of y o n g Christians. Far better is it to live in Italy than Siberia. The warm sun of kndness is better every way than the frost of harshness and indifference.— Evcrard. «^p» «^fc «i^fc Divine Harmony. All nature speaks the attributes of God. Whose vast domain of matter and of mind Accords forever with His holy will. All life is an expression of His love, All seeming death is birth to higher life. All discord is the fragment of a scale. Which, had man the power to comprehend. Would be replete with harmony divine. XXX All for the Master. To "do all things in the name of Jesus" is the lesson of a life; do not be angry with yourselves, nor despair of ever learning It, because thou art slow to learn the first few syllables. When thou hast learned t o da all things to Jeans, it will shed pleasure over all things, softhes3 over all hard, things, peace over all trial and woe and suspense. VLen will life be glad, when thou livest to Jesus; and how sweet death, to die in Jssus; with Him. and to Him. and in Him, to live for e*er more.—B. B. Pusey. X X X The Crown of Patience.

" Her case had baffled the skill of some of the most noted physicians. One of her worst troubles was chronic constipation of several years' standing. "Shealso was passing through that most critical period in the life of a woman— change of life. In June, 1895, I wrote to you about her case. Yon advised a course of Peruna and Manalin. which we at once commenced, and have to say it completely cured her. She firmly believes that she would have been dead only for these wonderful remedies. "About the same time I wrote you about my own case of catarrh, which had been of 25 years' standing. At times I was almost past going. I commenced to use Peruna according to your instructions and continued its use for about a year, and it has completely cured me. 44 Your mtnedies do ail thmt you claim tor them, mod even more. Catarrh cannot exist where Peruna is taken according to directions* Success to you and your remedies," John 0. Atkinson, In a letter dated January L 1900. Mr. Atkinson says, after five years* experience with Peruna: "i witt ever continue to speak a good word for Peruna, in my rounds as a trareUng man I am a walking advertisement for Peruna and have induced many people during the past year to use Peruna with the most sathtactory results, lam still cured of catarrh,** John O, Atkinson, Box 271, independence* Nlo, When old age comes on, catarrhal diseases come also. Systemic catarrh is almost universal in old people. This explains why Peruna has become so indispensable to old people Peruna is their safe-guard. Peruna is the only remedy yet devised that meets these cases exactly. Such cases cannot be treated locally; nothing but an effective systemic remedy could cure them This is exactly what Peruna is.

When the sewer of a city becomes stopped up, the refuse hacks into the streets where it decays and rots, spreading rltnosorj creating germs throughout the entire city. An epidemic of sickness follows. It is the same way when the bowels fail to work. The undigested food backs into the system and there it rots and decays.

When glass diahjes are used for flowers, it is useful to have the open wire coverings that come for the purpose, through which the stems may be thrust. In this way a few flowers may be used to excellent advantage. These, covexinga fit long, narrow aa well as circuiar diahee. The mirror mats are most desirable, too, and two or three or more in different sizes and shapes permit much variety in table decorations. It is a good plan, too, to have a set of four individual silver candlesticks, with a round of shades.

Tbe paper brought ont a goodly discussion. Mr. Maltby thought we should no*, expect our boys to i-e better morally than ourselves. Rev H. Palmer said his idea wan to educate a boy up to the highest standard of a farmer, that we bed a wrong idea that 'anyone' could be a farmer. Mr. Reynolds said tbere was nothing higher, intelectually, than a thorough farming education. If a boy was more desireous ot getting an education along some other lines than farming be 8bonid not be held back, was Mr. E. Field's idea. Mr. Durfee added a thought here, and said that as tbe education of a boy began in tbe little red schoolhoase the school officers sbonld not quibble over the pay of a teacher but get the best you can and see that they earn their money. The question box was then opened, and the following qoesions were answered:— Is our Agricultural College this first importance in the education of our boys? No, tbe home and little red school house. When is tbs best time to plant potatoes, for market? As early as possible, plant deep so as not to bill, and after planting keep the soil thoroughly stired with a drag. The question of centralizing our school system was answered by some who were in favor and foroe were not Is the telephone practical for the average fanner? Yes, and very useful. How much attention sbonld a farmer pay to his garden and fruit? Just as much attention as ha dees to bis other orops, and in season.

She did not suppose they would answer the letter she had;sent by the fisherman Hudde, so, immediately after her arrival at Jamaica, Katherine wrote to her mother; and, Without waiting for1 replies, she continued her letters regularly from Hyde.
