The proposition to convert k into a day "for sunshine, for cheery salutation, for the sweeping of life's way with the beams of gladness comes from the Optimist club.

All Fools' Day should be taken from clownish pranks and be made to bear tribute to the spirit of the Beason. The beginning of April, even when in tears, is radiated with sunshine and well pictures forth life Itself. So that the first day of April would be a fine day to dedicate to the spirit of optimism that is so strong,in the breasts of Americans. It would be a purely American holiday and should serve a fine purpose and give national emphasis to the brighter views of life. Optimist Day would spread the gospel of a smile. The San Francisco graft prosecutions differ from all other similar efforts for civic purity. They have become almost an institution, proving that such endeavors for honesty and the square deal are not necessarily sporadic, leading only to reaction. They serve also as a continual warning to corrupt officials and corrupting special interests in other American cities, Bays the Kansas City Star. The dramatic incident, where Heney's and Burn'B men made wholesale arrestB among the attorneys and special retainers of "the men. higher up," was likewise a refreshing demonstration that the state, when represented by aggressive, resourceful servants, can exert as much ingenuity and pertinacity for promoting a fair trial as rich and powerful defendants can and do for defeating justice. Interest in the fight for municipal square dealing in San Francisco has not languished, as the cynics and lawbreakers usually count upon its doing. On the contrary, it has grown, and to-day there is no public action of more dramatic intensity transpiring on the American political stage than the splendid effort for right Ihings in the Pacific coast city. A trapper haa come in from a remote part of northwestern Canada and reported that, during the winter there was a period of 50 days when the thermometer never indicated less than 38 degrees helow zero. This is "going Rome" even for that latitude. And the trapper will not. find himself fondly loved by those Canadians who dislike Kipling's characterization and who wish to attract immigrants, including well-to-do American farmers, to t h e northwest, under the impression that the sub-arctic section is not a bad second to the sub-tropic one on'this side of the line. Eighteen hundred and nine has been called "the year of genius" hecause so many famous men were born in that year. Abraham Lincoln undoubtedly leads the list of statesmen, Charles Darwin heads the list in science, Tennyson and Holmes in literature and Mendelssohn in music. Of these Darwin and Lincoln were horn on the same day. In many respects the century just, closed has seen more done for humanity than any other in our era.

LAKE NAVY MANEUVRES. Break Up of the Non-Marriage > Band Haa Begun—The Naval Militia Will Do Summer Stunts. Living in Menominee county for four years as quiet, respected cjtisens, but in reality disbelievers of every moral and national law affecting marriage, possessed of the belief that t h e Bible does' not sanction marriage/, bat instead says man should find his "soul mate" and live with her, atx couples have been residing io .* little community at Birch Creek. Tkelf,earnest efforts to secure new believers and to form a colony of respectable proportions brought t h e matter t o the. attention of the authorities Friday morning. Joseph Klopeck, a toolmaker at t h e IJoyd factory, was arrested on a criminal charge. He admitted without concern that he and his mate, Mary, have lived as husband and wife for four years and have worked hard to advance their belief. He and his young mate both declare they will suffer prison or extreme punishment rather than be forced to separate or marry. Klopecke's "mate" was later arrested. On the prosecution of the leaders will depend t h e arrests of the other five couples. Five years ago in Chicago Klopck, then a Bible student, after studying for years, decided that it said nothing favorable to marriage, but in many places mentioned woman as man's mate. After a short search he found his mate and took her to Menominee. They settled near the city. Quietly they became acquainted with Klopeck's fellow-employes and soon convinced five that their belief was the correct one. These in less than two months also found mates and built homes near Klopeck's property. The men are all employed in local factories. Recently the six couples made concerted efforts to convert several young men who later took their sweethearts to the settlement. When the matter of living together was broached the young ladies informed the authorities aud an investigation followed. The Naval Militia. Naval maneuvres on the great lakes on a larger scale than before have been participated in by the naval militias of Illinois, Ohio, Michigan and Minnesota, bordering on those waters, are in prospect for the coming summer, The assistant secretary of t h e navy, Beekman Winthrop, signified his willingness to do everything possible to assist the citizen sailormen, It is probable that Commander Chas. C. Marsh may be ordered to take command of the squadron during the cruise, The flagship probably will be the gunboat Nashville, which has been under repairs at the Boston navy yard for some time. This vessel has been assigned to the Illinois naval militia, ('apt. W. F. Purdy, of that organization, will take the Nashville from Boston up the St. Lawrence and through the lakes to Chicago. The Nashville will leave Boston April 30 and will be manned by a crew from the Illinois naval militia. Plans for the maneuvres on the lakes this summer have not been perfected, but it is expected that the squadron will be composed of eight vessels. These will be the Wolverine, the only regular naval vessel on the lakes; the Nashville and Dorothea, of the Illinois naval reserve; the Yantic and Don Juan de Austria, of the Michigan naval militia; the Hawk and Essex, belonging to the Ohio militia, and the Gopher, manned by the Minnesota naval reserve. Cost a Life. The hurried attempt of Louis Finney, a wealthy Leont farmer, to light a kitchen fire by the aid of kerosene, cast Mm his life and his wife and 7- year-old son are terribly burned, the wife -probably fatally. Attired in his night robe, Finney, after filling the stove with wood, began to pour on kerosene. The flames leaped up, the can exploded and the blazing contents was spattered over him. His screams attracted his wife and son, who rushed to his rescue and received their injuries trying to extinguish the flames that enveloped him. Finney died after eight hours of terrible agony. Neighbors extinguished the blaze, which threatened the Finney home. STATE BRIEFS. Yeags Get $5,000.

From ancient Beirut, on t h e eastern coast of t h e Mediterranean to tonerum, near t h e Russian border, 600 miles northeast, anti-Christian riot*, accompanied by slaughter, arson and rapine, a r e being enacted in Asiatic Turkey. Careful estimates place the number of those slain today at 1,000 and the total number who have fallen victims of the fanaticism of the Moslem hordes since t h e rioting began on Thursday at 4,000. Women are being ravished by the Moslem soldiers and carried off into t h e mountains, while t h e helpless children of the .Christians, mostly Armenians, are dying with their parents. Inflamed by t h e belief that their religion J B endangered , by the uprising in Constantinople, the Moslems are committing ^he grossest atrocities against Christians and the sands a r e blotting up the blood of hundreds of innocents. Adana, 30 miles inland from t h e Mediterranean, half h e r houseB in ashes and hundreds of people butchep ed, is the center of the massacre. Will Stir Up Washington. Fifty women, among t h e many hundred employed by the bureau of engraving and printing here, will be dismissed if t h e National Civic Federation of Women can secure their dismissal. Some of t h e most influential women in New York a r e interested in this federation. A committee of the federation visited Washington some time ago and it was proposed to establish a union of women in the bureau, having for its object the betterment of t h e women's condition spiritually and in all lines of life. T h e protection of t h e federation was much desired and the women gladly agreed to form a union with all these purposes in view. The executive committee of the federation, however, has discovered sufficient evidence to necessitate the formation of a committee, on morality. This committee went diligently to work and it g o t evidence showing so far that at least 50 women were not fit subjects for the benevolences of the federation. The publication of these investigations of the Woman's National Civic Federation will produce a widespread stir in Washington. T h e names of all concerned are reserved for the present but they doubtless will come out if the secretary of the treasury accedes to the wishes of the committee by dismissing the marked employes.

CHAPTER XXI.—Continued. The waning moon lighted up the quiet reaches far beneath, and out lined in diminutive spectral shapes the fleet of anchored ships. The great machine swooped lower until they could descry the telescoped funnels, from whose ragged mouths came no curl of smoke, and the bared decks whose lengths were paced only by men of the watch. Aside from these there was no sign of life. A mighty squadron, bereft of power, floating on still waters beneath a dying moon! If America wished to prove her supremacy, the lesson was complete. The royal shoulders outlined against the light of the port gave one great shudder of sorrow, and turned away. When the shutters closed and the lights returned, the king was resting his brow upon his hand, the lord of the admiralty was standing with tightly clasped hands, and the prime minister was leaning, with folded arms against the polished frame of the port through which he had viewed Briton's vanquished pride. "If your majesty pleases." the voice of the American admiral broke into the quietude, "I have promised to land MISB Roberts and Admiral Fields before our return. With your consent we shall stop in the place chosen for «11 our visits to Washington, In the outskirts." The monarch still thinking of the silent fleet, assented, and the radioplane swept downward at a tangent to the- lonely field. Again the lights went out, the port opened, and. the ^ slight shock of landing was felt Almost instantly a man in uniform stood before it and saluted the admiral, who started back in surprise. , "A message for you, sir, from the president and secretary of the navy, with requests that it be opened and read Immediately," the officer an- •punced. Jje^ins returned to the light of hood ^ j l Vviad: ^ I ^ K l n d l y report to the White House tssinedlatery upon arrival. " In case M§ majesty, the king of England, has returned with you, which we earnestly hope is the case, present to him the hearty goofl will of the president and people of the United StateB of America, and extend to him o«r urgent invitation either to accompany you, with those who may be his companions, or await the return of a committee of invitation and reception which will wait upon him as toon as It becomes definitely known that he is with'jrotr. ' '" ^ "In case he did not accompany you on your return,1 It will be necessary for yea to return to London at once, Isvvfttng aim to a conference of fcrest frjpjgfiance, whlcV>'>*S>a*io*e<il W tie" exigencies ot events which hare t*Jwn.plfcg *©-nJght. Mfe4ny lasaMWi Pusaled by this explicit message, Bevlns paused for a moment, with his trows crown do*n'1n tfibught. and then returned Jto the drawing room, where a shaded light rested in the center of the table round which his guests were seated- With a brief explanation he handed the order to the king, who calmly placed his glasses upon his high, fine nose,, leaned across the table, and perused it. Everything of the night was strange and unusual. A few hours ago he had gone to a theater to rest bid nerves, ahfl here he was across the Atlantic, Informally, and learning new lessons or receiving astounding revelations with each beat'oi time. He had gone thus far. and would go through to the end, and would go informally. "We prefer to accompany you," was alt the reply he made, and the party tiled out into the night, where two big automobiles ^brought for this very emergency-were in waiting. They whirled away to the White House, where they were met in the blue room by the president and his immediate advisers. The kfng himself established the basis of etiquette by extending his hand.to the president and his companions. He assumed no deportment of royalty; but as the first gentleman of England greeted the first gentle man of America. "Tour majesty," the president began, ',4the time is at hand when the United States has no further object in concealing the power at her command; the' sole cause of concealment, that of meeting the Chinese fleet, having been nullified by the action of that country itself. China has broken her alliance with Japan, is ready to make such overtures as we wish for peace, and Is dispersing her fleet." The president paused for a moment, and looked at those around him. The king, steadily watching him, was impressed with his simple dignity, and read aright the great and high purpose that shone In his eyes. Once more he resumed: "It has come to this issue, your majesty, much sooner than I had expected; but events which make for war and peace move fast. They are in the hands of God Almighty, and not of rulers. I desired this interview, because you can assist me in what I have to do, and for which I believe I am a mere Instrument in the hands of a power before whom all must bow." "And I am honored," the sovereign instantly responded. With his officials he was conducted to the president's private apartments, where they were followed by the secretary of state and the secretary of the navy. The king looked round the room, which he had entered on but one other occasion, long years before, when as a prince and without hope of a throne he had been received by a former president of the United States. How many men had occupied it since then, and how few of them had left any great individual mark on the world's history! He took the proffered^ Beat and waited for the president to speak, only half comprehending that he was entering upon one of the most important conferences that the world had ever known. "Your majesty and gentlemen," the president began in his low, finely modulated voice, "I told you I wished your assistance. I need more than that; I want your advice. I have been a man with a dream, and that you may know how much it has meant to me, I must tell you something of myself. I come of a race that for generations has given Its blood for country. It was almost obliterated in the wars of the revolution and of 1812. In the great civil war there were Ave men in my family, a father and four older ' brothers, the youngest a mere lad, who went to war as volunteers. Some of them never returned. My father was brought back shattered by suffering to die in my mother's arms. The lad that had gone out with his drum came back to drag out only a few wretched months of suffering. "My home was on the borderland, where men fought backward and forward across our fields.'' He paused for a moment as if the memory of his childhood was too bitter for recapitulation, then went bravely on: "In those years the sight of ghastly wounds and cruel death was before me sometimes dally, but never far removed. When peace came there waa nothing left to my mother but her ravaged farm, her bitter poverty, and her one boy. Oh, it was a nightmare, gentlemen, that never dimmed. ft was a mesnory that never left me, as, hard working, poorly clad and sometimes hungry. I grew to manhood. My mother went, as did thousands of other widows made by war, to an early grave, prematurely worn out lv work and grief." The floodgates were down at last His repression was going, and he rose to his feet behind his desk trembling in every fiber, and with white, quivering lips. In the stillness of the room he stood thus for an instant; then his teeth suddenly tame together with a dick and his Sat oast* down .» ± t I I I ' t ; i i upon the table In one quick, bard blow of e » P * 4 s « " ^ T i - f "Do you wondei." be said, "that I swore to give my life to peace? Is it strange that I who have suffered have taken unusual means to keep others from suffering as I and mine have? I have invited you bare not as the president of a nation, but as man to men to help me put—an—end—to —war!" -! Every word of his final declaration was bitten off with sharp emphasis and accentuated by a fist which beat trme. The king was suddenly conscious that he had leaned forward In. his chair so far that nothing but the tense grip of his hands upon the arms had held him down4. In all his years he bad Witnessed no such scene of emotion as this, nor heard a more earnest appeal. The president, as if regretting bis lack of control, settled wearily into bis seat. He had said things in a way that in any other man would have been undignified; but he, inspired by the grandeur of his purpose, failed, to realise that an angel with a flaming sword could scarcely have beep, more impressive. He had been addressing no ordinary audience. Before, bim was an august ruler* but more than that, a great man. And in the hush Which followed, the sovereign roie from Ms seat, stepped across to the desk, and for one of the ' few times in his life gave untrammeled vent to his feelings as a man. He put his hand out across the polished mahogany top as the tall form of the president straightened up. Their hands met in oue strong grip of understanding, and they looked squarely into each other's eyes, reading, comprehending, and binding themselves together in a common purpose for hu manity. It was not the etiquette which demands that all men shall stand when a king is on his feet that brought the others from their chairs, erect. breathless and motionless. It was rather the impulsive respect and veneration due to two great minds which before their very eyes were entering an unwritten compact for a high and noble cause. Once more they took their seats, but now by the subtle alchemy of humanity they drew their chairs together. They were no longer rulers and subjects. Englishmen and Americana, but men Inspired with inHir- MA Message for You, Sir, from the President and Secretary of the Navy." nanimity toward all their fellow beings. They were on a Godlike plane reasoning out momentous plans involving the nations of the world and all mankind. From their combined fund of knowledge they evolved methods which were to strengthen the weak and put in leash the strong. All reckoning of time was lost in this review of what had been accomplished and what was to be done. The night paled, the sun crept up; the lights of the darkness were extinguished, and the day advanced without their heeding It. The last tentative clause was signed, and each knew the part which his country must play. Again they were all upon their feet, looking into one another's faces and abruptly conscious of weariness and relaxation. Too overcome to resume their homeward journey, the visitors accepted the hospitality of the White House fer a few. hours' rest, and staggered to their rooms. Once, more than a hundred rears before, an unwise king had caused a war between brothers which had sent them on diverse paths. Each had prospered but held aloof. And now after all this time a wiser king had proffered his hand, and the brothers were to be friends again in truth, and were to travel side by side unto the end. i neither dI3 it use shy treat endeavW *tcf sYvW* ft,- Thoseaboard na<f only one w^ish, jf&ichj ws*£>rsjvold the gaffe* •ring 6r a crowd. <Tne machine was the Roberts., conveying the king and bjs counselors for a short interview Wlttt the higher officers of the 'British fleet. They had bade good-b? tb the man in the White House, who was henceforth to hold a place In thoir strongest admiration and friendship, and were now preparing for their homeward journey. The park entrances had been closed In advance, and the public debarred from its paths, hence there was no demonstration-when the party stepped out of the craft and took stmts in a motor car which had been awaiting their arrival. Only the secretary of state and Hevins accompanied them as escorts to the glaring entrance pf the hotel, and even the august clerks were unaware of the Identity of their visiters. With polite insolence the party was directed to a parlor until the manager could be summoned, and he on being informed that the king wished to meet his officers at once, conducted them to the elevator which carried them upward. By requisition of the .government, the entire top floor bad been given up to the accommodation of the British guests, and with them on this night as entertainers were many of the higher officers of the American navy who throughout the war had been forced to rest in idleness. The realization that their days of seafaring were nearly at an end had not come to them with full force, and all within the extemporized naval club were simply awaiting and hoping for orders which would put an end to inactivity. Beneath the shaded lights of the celling were many tables, at some of which men in fatigue uniforms were being initiated into an American game which seemed to find favor, while at others spirited discussions were being held. Wreaths of smoke curling up to meet the lights added to the air of informality, and a burst of laughter in one corner of the room indicated the success of some raconteur. The door Bwung open noiselessly, and on its threshold stood one who looked smilingly at the idle veterans of two nations. He stood thus for an Instant before the crusty old Scotch admiral known to his fellows as "Jimmy" Barr lifted his eyes in the direction of the door. His mouth opened in astonishment beneath its bearding of red, and his sharp eyes frowned as he peered across the shoulder of the man opposite, and then, with one hurried leap he gained his feet, upsetting his chair in his haste. His heels came together, and his arm was raised in salute as he exclaimed loudly: "Gentlemen, the king!" Instantly those in the room looked at the admiral and then at the entrance. There was the muffled sound of chairs hastily shoved across the carpeted floor, startled exclamations, and & hurried rising. Two score of hands came to the salute, and a dramatic moment followed in which their owners strove to gather their wits, It was almost unbelievable that their sovereign was before them. The king looked at them gravely, and then took a few steps forward, and his companions followed. He stopped almost in front of Barr, and slowly raised hls,^hand. with open fingers In a gesture which combined greeting and a demand for attention. He wasted neither time nor words. "My men," he said, "I have come from a conference with his excellency, the president of the United States. Its results will be made known to you within the course of a few days at the most, or hours at the least. I have come to say to you that in submitting yourselves to an invincible power for reasons which you could not fathom you acted wisely and now have our full approval." (TO BE CONTINUED.) CHAPTER XX11. Lights In the Night. That night for the first time a radioplane flew through the air from Washington to New York, where it came to earth in a portion of Central Park adjacent to one of the moat exclusive hotels.

InrVud-r Among the W a r Dogs. Prof. William Lyon Phelps of Yale went to West Point last fall to lecture. He was lecturing in the chapel, the cadets were rigidly paying attention, erect, eyes front, each man a ramrod of military etiquette. An Irish setter entered the chapel door and ambled snifflngly down the aisle and up on to the platform. The cadets squirmed under the eagle eyes of their officers but not a man smiled. "Billy" noticed the strain. He looked down at the dog wagging its tail benevolentlv on the rostrum. "What! How's this?" said Prof. Phelps. "A setter? Why, I expected to see nothing but West Pointers up here."—> Yale Alumni Weekly. Question of the Hour. "We are really at a loss to know how to punish Eaiie," she said.

Longchatnp Landmark Again Useful After a Rett of Two Centuries. Few of the throngs of Americans who go to Paris fall to visit the Bolt de Boulogne; so thousands of Americans know the Longchamp windmill especially those who go to the Grand Prix or auy of the other races at Longchamp. A few days ago Parisians walking or driving in the Bois were surprised to see the wings of this old thirteenth century mill turning in the breeas that swept the Longchamp sward. It is two centuries since the mill ceased to grind grain, and while it has been continued as one or the picturesque and admired objects of this beautiful landscape It has not been regarded as a machine of utility. The mill, however, has beer equipped with four pumps, and now when the wind serves these pumps increase the water supply which furnishes the great cascade of the Bois de Boulogne. So this interesting monument in a beautiful stretch of parkland not only adds to the pVc< turesqueneas of the Longchamp end of the Bois, but serves a practical use in enhancing the charm of a neighboring spot in taw great park. "I was one of the kind who wouldn't believe that coffee was hurting me," says a X. Y. woman. "You just couldn't convince me its use was connected with the heart and stomach trouble I suffered from most of the time. "My trouble finally got so bad I had to live on milk and toast almost entirely for three or four years. Still I loved the coffee and wouldn't believe It could do such damage. "What I needed was to quit coffee and take nourishment in such form as my stomach could digest. MI had read much about Postnm, but never thought it would fit my case until one day I decided to quit coffee and give it a trial and make sure about it. So I got a package and carefully followed the directions. "Soon I began to get better and was able to eat carefully selected foods without the aid of pepsin or other digestants and it was not long before I was really a new woman physically. "Now I am healthy and sound, can eat. anything and everything that, comes along and I know this wonderful change is all due to my having quit coffee and got the nourishment I needed through this delicious Postum. "My wonder is why everyone don't give up the old coffee and the troubles that go with it and build themselves up as I have done, with Postum." Easy to prove by 10 days* trial of Postum in place of coffee. The reward is big.

Pay* Well On The Farm. A few years ago the raibiutr of wheat and other crop* wit* one of the main things that the farmer bad for raising money, and thousands ot buebela of wheal were raised where hardly any is put in today. The reasons for this are many. One of them was that the price ot wheat went so low that it did not pay to raise and then the land bad been eruned so much that it was poverisned. Fatten, ot the Chicago "pit", has tried to raise the price and has succeeded to a certain extent but will it last loug if all tanners go back to the raising of the crop? One of the beat things that has been handled the past tew years in this country, not onlv tor the raising of money, but for the betterment of the land, has been the raising of cows for the condensed factory and other tact ories that use milk and cream. These factories h*vtj come to stay and while giving the farmer a good income each mouth, his farm i» grad t h i r d s goes for salaries.

Another of the"crops that has been neglected on the farm is the orchard. Many a good orchard has Deeu left to itself or cut down, when it might have been paying good dividends if rightly bandied at spraying time. If the farmer who had paid the money tor harvesting machinery, etc., bad invested part of the money in a spraying outfit and taken care of his orchard as as of his summer-fallow, he would have been dollars ahead and saved the hard toil of raising so much grain at such a small price.

But then old favorites have proven their usefulness In a so**p-end-water way, so it is always good to give them the preference where garments are to be much laundered. As to this, it is absurd to fancy that any tinted linen; cotton or muslin texture, can be treated like the face and hands. Some concession to. delicate coloring must be made, and the first step toward this is never to let' the little colored garment get too soiled before washing. A thick suds ot some good white soap is also better for colored things than any other. If a strong soap Is rubbed directly upon the garment, you may expect to see the wild rose pink or baby blue fly out of the window. All tinted garments, except those bearing the fastest dyes, should be dried in the shade. Linen, pique, crash, drilling, pongee, cotton suiting and denim are among the standard textures for young boys. Sensible dresses for girls, those for useful morning wear, play, etc., are also seen in these materials, some simple white embroidery or braid taking the place of the handsome stitching or contrast of color on the masculine garment. But the smarter of the little girl toilets are very dainty fn texture, and with muslin, dimity and swiss very appropriate laces give a quite elegant effect. The more elaborate of such small gowns must, of course, be cleaned instead of washed when soiled, but since smart frocks get little hard wear, and dry cleaning is much cheaper than formerly, the extra expense need not be feared. At all times a wash frock is preferable to a more pretentious; material for girls up to six and the same thing may be said of boys' suits for this age and those up to it. A delicately tlgured silk, such as tiny rosebuds on a white background, would make a very fetching summer dress for any little gala occasion. And here the bertha would be of swiss or mull, trimmed with lace, or perhaps of solid silk, lace trimmed, and in the tint of the background. However, though there is a preference for dainty finery where small girls are concerned, with the bertha left oft, And plain elbow sleeves, tatsmodel Tfiay do for this simplest country gingham.

Variety of Colorings for Ornamentation Is One of the Latest of Fashion's Dictates. "Black jet is very much in evidence at present and white jet Interests me very much," declares an enthusiastic English woman in the Queen. "I am very tired of all the cut and blown glass that masquerades as diamante work, crystals, precious stones of various sorts, bugles and beads of all descriptions, Infinitely preferring, for the moment at any rate, something quite opaque. "Black and white Jet need not be the alpha and omega of the list. In darkish colors it is most attractive—green of the laurel or creme de menthe shade, garnet or ruby for embroidering, red currant or wine shades of tulle, yellow like clouded amber—quite fascinating this last—turquoise, with all the real gem's lack of transparency; brown— think of a brown net frock worked in brown jet and aluminum, with a dash of gold over a slip of faint maize charmeuBe! "Gray jet combined with dull silver heads and platinum threads would form charming matt effect, stitchery, biscuit-colored jet, gray green jet, the color of gooseberry fool, royal blue jet, purple jet, and to finish up with molecolored jet, with which one could do so many charming things thtat I hardly like to begin suggestions for fear I should never be able to stop. And these Ideas for a variety of colorings in this opaque glass—for of course It is only that, and cleverly made too, so as not to be heavy—need not be confined to evening wear, but in several cases could form part of the new millinery— does so in fact—and worn judiciously makes an agreeable change."

If you have a taste for cooking and like to go into the kitchen now and then to make some fancy thing you can save the cook no end of trouble by the use of brown paper while you are at work. Before you begin with your bowls and things spread a large piece of paper on the table and then put all your cooking utensils down on it and keep them on it. If you break eggs throw the shells on the paper; in fact, the paper becomes the r& ceptacle for all the "messiness" whic) is a natural part of preparing things to be cooked. When you have made your dish, or arranged your salad, or finished the thing* you are doing, all the debris can be gathered up in the paper and throw* away, leaving the UbT^aa^clean a* if you had^jjot at work.

There are literally hundreds of thousands of women in the United States who have been benefited by tfrsisuTious old remedy, which was produced from roots and herbs over thirty years ago by a woman to relieve woman's suffering. Read what these women say: Camden,, W. *T. — « I t is with pleasure that X send my testimonial for Lydia EL Pinkham's vegetable Compound, hoping* it m a j induce other suffering? women to avail themselves of the benefit of this valuable remedy. « I suffered from pains in my back and aide, sick headaches, no appetite, was tired and nervous all the time, and so weak I could hardly stand. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound made me a well woman—and this valuable medicine shall always have my praise."—Mrs. W. P. Valentine, 9 0 2 Lincoln Ave., Camden, N. J . Erie, Pa. -** I suffered for five years from female troubles, and at last was almost helpless. I tried three doctors but they did me no good. My sister advised me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and it has made me well and strong. I hope all suffering women will just give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial, for it is worth its weight in gold." —Mrs. J. P. Endlich, B. F. I>. 7, Erie, Pa. Since we guarantee that all testimonials which we publish are genuine, is it not fair to suppose that if Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound had the virtue to help these women it will help any other woman who is suffering from the same trouble. For 3 0 years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been the standard remedy for female ills. No sick woman does justice to herself who will not try this famous medicine. Made exclusively from roots and herbs, and has thousands of cures to its credit.

With wheat soaring to almost unprecedented ,nrices lS..Ubf. wheat pit t h e - ^ e e o f flour has taken a jump throughout the country. The rise in the price brings. hardship upon the bakers who, to save themselves from ruin, are forced to either advance the price of oread or cut the size of the lpaf, with resultant distress to the poor. "There is no manipulation, no cor tier," reiterated Patten. "Blame the farmer. If his crrops were better the present situation would ^not result. It Just happens that I am On the'lnslde." "King" Patten has installed a bodyguard of two husky negroes in Ms office and home. Whenever he goes about the city he is accompanied by the two men.

According to managers of milling companies which operate the largest plants tn the United Stales and practically ff* the price of flour, there is no relief iji sight from present price conditions. They say tihere is every Indication that flour will continue to soar and may reach $10 a barrel. The agents deny tiiere is any combination to increase prices or to control business. C. U Dihvorth said to- 'day: "It is not the speculation in wheat that is affecting flour at this time. The price will be stiff all through the summer. The United States has grown a larger crop than a year ago, but the world's supply is short. There is a wheat, flour and bread famine In Mexico. T h e price of Argentine wheat is 11.25. and of Canadian wheat $1.27. Argentine shipments to Liverpool have been short, and this has increased the Liverpool demand for American shipments. "The result of this situation Is apparent. It may sound jtjrange^to some ; people, hut selling 'flour at 17 a barrel ;at present is selling below cost. It requires five bushels of wheat to make a barrel. Taken at $1.29 a bushel the wheat in each barrel costB $6*5. Add to that $1.05 for sacks, freight, storage, delivery and^ejj^nfij and carrying accounts, and it would] bring the actual cost of a barrel of f flour up to $7.50. "The reason why we are now selling at |7, below cost, is that we were not prepared for such rapid jumps, and could not prepare customers for them. "It is difficult to say just what will happen. I would not even venture to «ay that there may not be a wheat and flour famine in the United States when I look around at the condition In the rest of the world." fatten'* View. 'The wheat .shorts are in Wall street And it is pretty well known that Wall street has some influence at Washington. The only thing Secretary Wilson has right in his statement of Friday is that I am making money in wheat. 1 admit that." Smarting under the charge that he has been conducting a corner and has been robbing the consumers of bread, James A. Patten, Chicago's wheat king,, thus Teplied to the charges of «elf-interest marts at Washington. Besides, he declared that President Taft's department; qf agriculture was purposely misrepresenting the facts. The Napoleon of the pit arrived at his office under guard of three attendants, but said that he had lost, no sleep over the threats that nave been made against his life.

How tenderly their health should be preserved, not by constant medication, but by careful avoidance of every medicine of an injurious or objectionable nature, and if at any time a remedial agent is required, to assist mature, only those of known excellence should be-ueed; remedies which are pure and wholesome and truly beneficial In effect, like the pleasant laxative remedy, Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, manufactured ;by the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna has come into general favor in many millions of well informed families, whose estimate of its quality and excellence is based upon personal knowledge and use. Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna has also met with the approval of physicians generally, because they know it is wholesome, simple and gentle in its action. We inform all reputable physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, obtained by an original method, from certain plants known to them to act most beneficially, and presented in an agreeable syrup in which the wholesome Califbmian blue figs are used to promote the pleasant taste; therefore it is not a secret remedy, and hence we are free to refer to all well informed physicians, who do not approve of patent medicines and never favor indiscriminate self-medication. Please to remember and teach your children also that the genuine Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna always has the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—plainly printed on the front of every package and that it is for sale in bottles of one stee only. If any dealer offers any other than the regular Fifty cent size, or having printed thereon the name of any other company, do not accept it. If you fail to get the genuine you will not get its beneficial effects. Every family should always have a bottle on hand, as it is equally beneficial for the parents and the children, whenever a laxative remedy is required.

Nevertheless, I had a mind to proceed. "We will bring the child here," 1 added, then, turning to the guide, "and, Herman, if the sees the ghost 1 will give you an American gold eaplo for a memento of the occasion." "Thanks, herr. I consider myself richer by that amount." "Don't say ice will bring her here," said Annette, with a shrug. "I shall have nothing to do with the matter."

Oar lo*8 will be Howells gain. ernoon to take her to walk with us. 1 felt sure that If spirituality would en able her to discern the ghost she would see it. She was like a waif from spirit land, large dreamy eyeswonder eyes I would call them—the face of n child Madonna, senrHlve lips, the figure of a sprite. She walked | with us in silence, treading the ground j so lightly that I sometimes wondered if Rhe touched It at nil. Annette could not keep her eyes off her, seemingl.v enthralled by her, though our quest may have hnd much to do with that. Besides, our surroundings were impressive. What is there more typical of the infinite than a mountain nils ing its white head into the heavenly bl'ie? And what, more typical of in flnity than a host of such mountains looming on all sides, three snow fringed glaciers wriggling like ser pents down their sides? Our little friend looked up at the peaks with a sort of trustfulness, as If they were animate—her older brothers, resting, silent, conscious of latent power. The wind was fresh, and It seemed that It would take up the child and carry her to some far peak gilded by the afternoon sun where ahe would be nearer her own country. As we drew near the spot we sought Annette weakened. I saw la her expression that she feared we would hare evidence, of the specter's, pretence. The child wae walking before ua, and Annette, sidling toward me, laid ber hand on my arm, «* before, tnie time clotchlng it in tenor. We stood on the ground we had oc~ cuptod the day before, looking out on the spot Herouui had referred to when he Jjuid, "She may be raking over there now." A wind rolled over some dead leuves where we fancied the wouiuu worked. Annette drew near me— •o neat that her silken sleeve rubbed against my arm. The child atood a few Btepa before us, looking at the mountains, the valleys, anything, ev erything that made up the view. "Ueruiuu baa lost hia eagle," I aald In a low voice to Annette. "She bees nothing unusual." "Thuuk heuven!" was the whispered reply. "Whut a desolate spot!" i remarked aloud. "Not a living thing here but uuraelves." MYes, there la," aaid the child. "There's u woman over there raking dead leaves." I felt u convulsive grip ou my arm. I knew Aunette needed support, and 1 put my arm about her to steady her. 1 confess 1 was startled, myself. "WhereV" I asked of the child. "Over there," poiutlng. "Shu bees us. Fhero are only hules where the eyes should be." "Oh, come away!" It was Annette who walled the words. But she had no power to go. My plan had worked too well. Its object to excite In her that craving for protection which would throw her into my arms had succeeded, but l feared the shock. 1 took her in my arms and put my face against her cold cheek. I looked love into her wild eyes. All to no purpose. I could get nothing but convulsive shudders, clutchiugs. That was a long while ago. Annette la my wife, but I have never ceased to regret that I uncovered her heart In a way so dangerous. She was long in re covering from the shock, and even nov I do not dure refer to the matter. Xn explanation of the wonder has ever come to me. I have no theory concerning It and don't wish any, All 1 ask Is that I and Annette may forget It. MURIEL K. GRAY. Ths Wis* Though QentU Reader. In an armchair of a Pullman smoking car on the way east from Louisville a polite but resourceful man waa trying hard to read a novel while his next neighbor kept up a running fire of chatter. With the light of a desperate resolve In his eye, yet cloaking determination with exquisite politeness, the reader presently said: "Par- Son me, but my memory for names Is not to be depended upon. Tour name sV»- "Shepherd,' replied the voluble one cheerfully. The one sided conversation kept on awhile longer, the light of desperate reeolve meanwhile burning brighter fcnd brighter. Then the readef raited hte eyes to a stranger, his neighbor Across the aisle, and suddenly demandfed, "What is your name, sir?" "Ward," said the stranger. "Tea, yes, of course!" cried the readir briskly. "Mr. Ward, let roe introduce Mr. Shepherd." By which simple but ingenious expedient the torrent of extraneous chatter w a s diverted to poor Ward, and the reader read happily ever after,— Harser't Wookrg H i i Chanca to G«t Evan.

Harmon hai given orders to return to ti»e Cooled Brat* veterans in Alabama certain flacs captured by tbe Ftourtn Ohio Volunteer infantry durin* the civil war ba* lea t o protests and that the <L& partment commander of the O. A. K. will be asked to take action enjoin log the governor. Among old union bojdifcria there will be difference* of opinion as to the merits of the controversy. A great many will side With Gov. Harmon and hope that the flags wiH b« returned. The sentiment on tnte BTDhject among the great body of veterans has softened very much since the flrat administration of President .C.ltfveJaud, when huge uproar was raised in many parts of the north oyer the report that the federal government was preparing to send back- captured southern battle flagB to their original, owners. Another Memorial day is aproachlng. The sections that were severed during the civil strife have grown together Eleven years have passed Bince sons of the north and sons of the south marched side by aide under the starry banner of their reunited country, to confront a foreign foe. It is high time to bury all the lingering hatreds of the past—and a very large proportion of the men whe did the actual fighting in the civil war have done so.—Exchange. Fiench and British capital Is said to be behind a $50,000,000 scheme for the development of the iron and steel business in Mexico, where there is an abundance of raw? materialB/^lexico will need an increasing amount of iron and steel, as she is developing rapidly both in population and business, and moreover, trade in these products with South America is developing very rapidly through settlement and business enterprise. The reported Mexican scheme should dictate renewed energy on the part of the business men of the United States for the capture of the increasing trade of South America and the upbuilding of a merchant marine that will stimulate commerce between the main divisions of the western hemisphere. The Zeppelin airship, which was to have descended at Munich, but was J e#rrf4$'qif' by: a' gale/fcatoe down at Difa^lfinS ; No hajm " resulted, bef££ u*e;th^ftf are piping tjjnes of peace. But suppose that sort of thing were to happen in war, and suppose the place where an aerial ship put into port was in the enemy's country! However, the enthusiastic aeronaut may not worry so much about the possibility of becoming a prisoner of war. That is likely to be a minor consideration, weighed against the tremendous chances of coming down to earth with a thump so hard that it will make little difference whether the landing place is in the enemy's country or not. Evidently there is need for a school of instruction for voters, says the Springfield Republican. Many ballots were spoiled In the recent primary here. In the Fourth ward one man did not pay any attention to the names of the candidates on the ballot, but wrote: "I vote for Allaman for mayor, for Vogt for councilman, for R. Fred WWte f 6 r school board, and I don't give a famn for the rest." He even dated the ballot. There is not so-much livelihood of a "holy war" in Morocco as there was. The priest who went about inciting such a conflict has been captured and locked up, and for a while at least therms ,wttl. he a cessation of attempts by pretenders to get possession of the throne. A holy war which leads to jail ie neither inspiring nor promising of success. "Gypsy" Smith, the evangelist, tells New Yorkers that if Christ came to their city he would not go to fashionable Fifth avenue cburcheR, but would go Into the tenderloin and red light districts, seek the unfortunates and try to make their burdens lighter. But if all the stories about New York are true, there Is need of some scourging of sinners in Fifth avenue temples. ASST. POSTMASTER WENT WRONG NOW ALMA HAS A ttENBATJONAL CASE T H A T STIRS UP T H R T O W N , FOOLISH AND CRUEL JEST Soma Phasea of L i t * That Have Hard Conditio** Umter Which tana* cence Bears the Burden. Assistant Postmaster Isaac Fink, a general favorite among; his townsmen, haa been found $1,966/7T **hort in his account* by Inspector Crookson, fotr lowing a three days' inspection of the postoffice at Alma. Fink made affidavit that he alone was responsible'for the shortage in the Alma postoffice. He said that he alone bandied the money and made up the accounts. Postmaster C. F. Brown trusted bis a'sdistant implicitly. The postmaster disclaims all knowledge of crooked work in his office. Fink has been connected with the Alma postoffice since 189ti. He is 30 years old. On being taken to Saginaw he waived examination and was bound over to the United States district court of Bay City by Commissioner Brooks. He was later released on ¢5,000 bonds, with two securities. lvove of the gay life, flimsy purpose and temptation have swung the balance against moderate means in the case of Fink, who is a self-confessed embezzler to the extent of $1,96«.77. This sum may prove to be but nominal. Ugly rumors of the mysterious disappearance, some time ago, of a 16,000 shipment of gold are being revived. The old story of the misery a man's misstep brings not only on himself, but on his dear ones, i« exemplified in the pledging by his mother of her little home—her all—to save her son from a cell. Fink's popularity is attested to by the fact that a number of business men have clubbed together and made good the shortgage named, so that his bondsmen will not lose through his dishonesty. Wrecked His Life Dream. Because of a foolish and unintentionally cruel jest on the part of his comrades, Andrew Johnson, of Esoanaba, a sailor, is a gibbering lunatic now, after he had been almost overcome with joy. Johnson, who was one of the crew of the steamer May wood, had just received a $1,000 draft from his early home in Finland wherewith to buy a farm—the dream of his life. In an unguarded moment the simple-minded tar showed it to his companions, whonot only said it was bogus, but jollied him about being a "sucker"' until re burned the draft by holding it to a lighted cigar. When he found out that he had been made Ihe victim of a joke and that the draft had been a good one, Johnson became violently insane and tried to leap over Ihe side of the boat tagt night. He was put in a stralghV jacket and taken to an asylum. Shot in Jealous Rage. Jealous of the place held by Floyd Ketehum in the affections of Mrs. Ida Fredenburg, a pretty Battle Creek widow, A. K. Mueller shot the former three times and also tried to kill the woman, The shot fired at Mrs. Fredenburg just grazed her body, lodging In a door. Ketehum ran for refuge, after being shot twice, to the home of Mrs. George Hess, locking the door as he entered. But Mueller followed, broke down the door and fired the third and doubtless fatal shot. Both men roomed at Mrs. Fredenburg's house. Ketehum is 27 years old, Mueller 45. the widow 40. Ketehum stated to Dr. W. S. Ship that there was no rivalry for Mrs. Fredenburg. "I don't know why he shot me," said Ketehum. Nurse Commits 8uicide. Taking a bottle of carbolic acid /rom the dispensary of which she had charge and swallowing the poison so carefully that her lips were not burned, then lying on the hed With her hand on a newspaper to give the impression she had fallen asleep while reading, Miss Esther Keller, aged 25, a pretty nurse of the Northern Michigan asylum for the insane, committed suicide. There is no known motive for her deed. The girl was engaged to a well known local young man. She was a graduate of the local trafnlng school for nurses and had been with the aRylutn several years before that. Her clothes had all been packed and in her bank book was found a check for all deposits, drawn in favor of her mother, who lives in Kalkasa. STATE BRIEFS.

Crack" develop in the tubes and the guns be come dangerous. IR the gunner reach ing ths Hmft of his ability to drive heavy minrsilea over long distances or through armor plating? _.. Jealous Husband's Crime. Jealousy growing out of the impression that George BurriH MrKinncvn, 31, of Mooretown, Ont., across the river from St. Clair, had been too friendly with his wife, led Capt. Ralph Pringle, a. well-known ve?selman, to send three bullets into the body of the former at 12:30 o'r'nrk Sunday morning. Mc- Kinnon died Sunday afternoon. Pringle Is in jail at Port. Huron. Ill health and despondency are given as the reasons why Oliver Mother, axed 98. a farmer living near Stanton, killed himself by banging. Lou B. Winsor. grand treasurer of the grand lodge, F. ft A. M.t who bas been critically ill at his home in Raid City, is reported as recovering. Because William F. MaJlo, a saloonkeeper, hit him in the face and broke hU nose, he alleges, Joseph F. Weber, of Kalammoo, is seeking $300 damages. Asked regarding bis Intenttoas of running for 8enator Burrows' seat in the United States senate, Gov. Warner said fee had no idea of being a candidate next year. The department commander of the O. A. R. has issued official notices, designating Monday, Hay 31, as Memorial day, as May 30, the regular date, falls on Sunday. While suffering from an attack of periodical insanity, James Kadloc, a wealthy farmer of iatUe. River, hung himgelf in his barn. .His body was found b j members of the family. James £ . >Vincent, business partner of Arthur Hill, denies the report that Mr. H i l l l ^ i n a critical condition, and say8, that the latter wJU return to Sagfrtaw'tne latter part of this week. The convention of the Knights and Ladies' of Honor indorsed a plan t» build a state home, t o ! cost $35,000. Detroit, Grand Rapids and - Saginaw are mentioned as locations for the building. The Michigan & Ohio Railroad Co. has applied for a franchise to run its lines through Ann Arbor. The p.an is to build a line from*Toledo to Ann. Arbor and later to extend it to Whitmore- lake. ' " Charles Featherstone, of Grant, died In Butterworth hospital as ttfe result of having been struck in the eye by a splinter while he was chopping wood/ A tnooci vessel was ruptured when the silver struck the optic. According to an .opinion-,, banded down by Attorney General Bird,\the residents of any county have a voice in the makirg, of special local laws for the protection of deer, in addition to the general laws now in force^. Vicksburg council, at a recent meeting, voted to accept saloon bonds only from local men, thereby shutting out the several Battle Creek men who were driven out there by local option, and' had decided to locate in Vicksburg. James Freelmane, the fourth of the quartet charged with robbing the HUUdale poBtoftice, was sentenced to from sev* a and one-half to fifteen years in Marquette prison, The other three are now serving sentences In Jackson. ^ While returning'from Mupkegon on a Perc,, Marquette train. Harold Shaw, 14, of Big Rapids, abstained injuries that'will disfigure1 him for life. A transom broke over his head and falling glass cut several severe gashes in his face. What is said will be the third largest plant manufacturing explosives In the United States will be that which it is officially announced will be established in the Michigan copper mining district. It will produce dynamite only. Hamilton Reeves, superintendent of the grounds and buildings of the IT. of M., was badly Injured when ah. assistant who had gone up a tree lo place ft rope preparatory to pulling It down, fell, landing on Mr. Reeves' head and shoulders. Jacob Green, of Swartz Creek, took a large dose of laudanum and then went to a doctor asking that the latter write to Green's mother, telling her that her son was dying. The doctor used a stomach pump instead of a pen, and Green will live. Mrs. Belle Hazard, whose mother, Mrs. Bertha Ziegler, rushed into Lansing police headquarters and declared that the former was stolen or had met with an accident, was found after an hour's search by the police, at work in the cellar of the home. Fred Shaw, 28, of Gardendale, owes his life to his shepherd dog "Rove," whose faithfulness a few days ago in dragging him from the track, where he lay sleeping, saved his master from being ground to death beneath the wheels of a Grand Trunk train. Phil Eichhorn, of Port Huron, who was recently robbed of all his rnoi%, at Salt Lake City, while on ft trip to California, and had to borrow money to get home, has received a check for $100 from the Pullman Car Co., as the robbery occurred in one of their cars. Charles Leonard, of Kansas City, who has been contesting the will of his brother, John, of Flint, did not appear in court at. the hearing and the estate, valued at $5,000, goes to John CaHahan, a saloonkeeper and one of the rloseRt friends of the dead man. Though John Mann, a Nile* hotelkeeper, drove an automobile the 12 miles to South Bend in 20 minutes, in an effort to reach the bedside of his wife who was dying as the result of an operation, he was too late, she having died a few minutes before hffl arrival. William Miller, charged with the assault of Roadmaster Chas. Yazel, of the Flint & Saginaw road, was placed under $1,000 bonds in Saginaw and will be tried April 29. The injured man is recovering rapidly, and no serious results of the beating are anticipated. Benjamin F. Earl, the new mayor of Niles, is beginning hin reign most strenuously. He recently declared that no prlvste concern could last a y«ar if it were run on the same plan as the affairs of the city. He promises reforms and the strictest enforcement of the law. AND THE TARIFF CONGRESSMAN DENBY W H I L E IN D E T R O I T TALKS OF T A R I F F BILL. TRADE WITH CANADA Thinks the Payne Bill a Good On* and That There 1« No Use to Talk of Reciprocity With Canada. • I . . •! «< Rep. Edwin Denby, who has bean spending a few days In Detroit, has this to say of the tariff bljl: "It is impossible to say exactly wfcen, the bill will be passed by congress and signed by the president. The senate has no power to make rules by which to end debate, and if aeaators desire the debate can be continued all summer. UN is generally understood, how: ever, that the senate does not car*;to tafce a. very lung time over,the bill, and will probably end its deliberations about the jniddle of May. Then the bill will go to a conference of the committees of the two houses and probably the conference will last "1Q days or so. Then It tflll have again to be brought before both houses and the conference reports accepted and the bill finally passed. I hope this wtil be done before June*! and that the bill •Will tlien .become &.U*w. ^ "I think it 'yml hi fy *tee maiin a good bill.

The time has comfe to be specific irt this matter. If we can inform four lejfcciretary'of state that the American people are willing that,the tariff shall be reduced or removed entirely from certain specified articles, he may approaclr the, Ottawa government with something-In his hamfl^to trade, with, but it IS perfectly useless to itake reel procity as a policy* any longer. Canada was-at o a a » & $ $ witHog ,«nd aa*ious to make advatfcfs to, us in.fhls regard, but that day haa passed.

"I believe general conditions In the United States today are excellent.

TIDE OF BLOOD. The Unspeakable Turk Makes an In discriminate Butchery. The entire population of Kirikan, located between Aleppo and Alexan dretta, even unto the -laBt babe, has been massacred. The French mission at Ekbaz is besieged by fanatical Moslems. The Armenian village oi Deurtyul la surrounded, and according to a messenger who crawled through the Arab lines at night and made his way to Aleppo for help, the situation there is hopeless. The build ings on the edge of the town already were in flames when he escaped. The massacres are being carried oul with the greatest violence. Neither women nor children are spared. The motto of the Moslem is "no twig oi the accursed race shall be suffered to live." The Armenians, recognizing that the massacres have been organized and carried by adherents of the Old Turkish regime, are looking to the Young Turks for future protection. Five American women missionaries are In danger in Hadjlm, In the vilayet of Adana, Asiatic Turkey. One of them, Miss Lambert, has sent a message down to the coast, asking for immediate help. The women are entirely alone and defenseless. The villages surrounding Hadjim are In flames, and Hadjlm itself is inrested by Nomad tribesmen. Messages from the interior are being suppressed by the authorities. FLASHES FROM THE WIRE The house of representatives of the Missouri general assembly defeated a measure taxing corporations 2o cents for each $1,000 of capitalization. The government has entered into an agreement with the Standard Oil company, whereby each is to be?ir haK the expense of printing and binding the testimony taken *in the St. Louis casrs. The testimony and other matter connected therewith will fill 20 or 21 volumes of 500 pages eRch. Tb* cost will be between $20,000"ond $2/).- OOfl it is said. Sultan a Prisoner. After a battle lasting from dawn Saturday to noon, in which thousands on each side were killed, the constitutionalists are in complete possession of Constantinople. The sultan is a prisoner In his palace, though part of the garrison still holds out. The Young Turks attacked the city from two sides. The larger force marched from San Stefano Into Stamboul and captured the bridges over the Golden Horn without much resistance. The other column moved against the Ylldiz Kiosk and met with little opposition until they approached the barracks of Tashkischla and Taxim, near Pera. Here they were met by a hot fire from the loyalist troops, who disputed possession of the barracks with obstinate fury. The fusilade of small arms was reinforced by quick firing guns. Parties of the defenders had barricaded themselves In houses. Street fighting by detached numibers became general, and hand to hand encounters with bayonets were frequent. President, Taft has promised to come to Chicago on June 7 to attend the national conference on criminal law and criminology, if congress adjourns in time. THE MARKETS.

Inventor Roberts exhibits a metal production. This overcomes friction when electrified and is to be applied to Vessels. Roberts evolves a creat flying machine.

After maneuvering the airships descend, and by use of strong magnets lift the warships, one by.one, from the sea. The vessels are deposited in the United States. The British fleet accepts American hospitality and is conveyed to the United States. The kaiser Is taken on a trip— his first visit to America—thus accounting for his disappearance.

As if to' recognize 'their parting shouts, the searchlights of the Roberts in dazzling ripples of color flared suddenly upwnirn and round'" in ftm-snnped sweeps, which were finally directed full trpon the streets below. At a comparatively low altitude the craft went slowly attcoss the city and headed toward the Atlantic, while men upon the pavements beneath took up the cry, until from all sides windows opened and the people rushed Into the streets for a sight of this mysterious aerial visitor. Reaching the lower edge of the city, the radioplane shot up «nd up until It was a speck of light against the stars, took one last cir> d i n g flight, *no with marvelous speed disappeared in the east. And while America was gaining her- first knowledge of this incredible flying .machine, the Boberts was shooting away in a long straight track for the old world. The king .had watched the sights below as long as they were visible. Through his glasses he had seen the streets become filled with excited CHAPTER XXII.—-Continued. The British officers exchanged quick side glances of relief. Bare alone had the temerity to break into an open smile of satisfaction. They were not, then, to be censured by their country, and the situation would bear no disgrace. His majesty continued: "You have unwittingly assisted in reuniting the Anglo-Saxon race, I hope, after Us separation of nearly a century and a half. You have been made involuntary guests by a man whose friendship I esteem, and whom I honor above all men. I refer to the president of this nation, and I ask that you remember him as kindly as I do. Your countrymen will have no just cause for criticising you or your actions. Instructions will be sent you In due time through the admiralty. Until then you are to maintain patience. I wish you good night." With dignified grace he bowed to them, took a step backward, turned on his heel, and was going before they grasped the significance of his speech •or awakened from the wonder of his unexpected visit to this alien land. The clang of an elevator door recalled them and stirred them to action. They ran after him, rang for and surged into the elevators, to debouch on the street a minute later a group of hatless men craving further explanations and wishing to honor their ruler. They crowded t o the edge of the pavement beside which the motor car was humming in readiness for its start. The king saw them coming, smiled at their eagerness, and turned to Bevins with a question which they • could not hear. The American admiral gave a laughing reply, and the monarch leaned over te* Jimmy Barr, who was standing on the curb close at hand. "My host, the admiral," the king said, "says Jack of time prevents your accompanying us. Otherwise we •Jhould ask you to witness our em- ^Mrkation. We are returning to Lon- ^'efce on a radioplane to-night, and the world's mystery is at an end. We muBt say good nights" - The lights of the hotel entrance were full upon them, bringing out In detail to the curious guests who were gathering on the marble steps the men with bared heads and the graybearded English gentleman in the machine. They saw him nod to the chauffeur, who was looking back, saw the latter turn to his work, and then tho machine leaped away into the broad drive toward the nearest park entrance. And to the amazement of the onlookers the men in uniform stood at salute until the machine had disappeared. Not even then dlrl they disperse, but stood there silently watching the skies. Pedestrians joined the group, speculating as -to the cause of this uniformed gathering. "Hardly; but we dare take no chances. "What do you think it Is?" "'„"1 ''don't know. A mlnuje or two; ypjll tell If, they have seen us," ' The king and his countrymen fumbled for their glasses in the darkness, found them, and , lined n themselves up ' againat the Jransparept port which had not been closed. The cause of the sudden cautionary measures was apparent. There, comparatively far away, aijft high up against the starlit sky, they .saw the blazing line of a searchlight thrust up into the darkness. It wavered uncertainly for an Instant, and $hen slowly, as if feeli p g its way, approached them. It seemed uncertain and for a moment disappeared. Their own machine had come to a halt For an instant .nothing was visible, and then there leaped into^the air a vertical beam of red. Beside it came another steady ray of brilliant white, and then to complete the color trio a vivid shaft Of blue arrayed Itself beside the other Jtwo. Outside in the hood they heard a wild unrestrained burst of cheering, and the cabin was again flooded with light. The bid ad- WirdA stepped hurriedly in, his face aglow, and his cap in his hand. "We have sighted the Norma, your majesty, the craft which disappeared with his imperial' majesty, the emperor of Germany." Before he bad finished speaking the ducted by the king, they turned end entered* the,'<^$Eh Jfr&ttton and Bovine brought unktfe« ff*r'i At^cuwf end of the table stood CbeuAmerican'secrery oj state, and beside him were the line minister* fll England and the W H A T COLORS S H A L L I USE?

I " T h e Soldierly Form of the Kaiser Appeared." men, women and children, and their shoutings had come to him faintly above the hum of the dynamos. The glimmerings of the great harbor dimmed and died away, and here and there could be descried the lights of the slow steaming patrol ships keeping the outpost watch upon the sea. When the last sign of life had vanished, he turned to his companions in silence, thinking of all that had taken place within the few recent hours. Only a short time ago they had entered this aerial chamber, standing in dread of the unknown terror of the waters and the menacing silence of this western continent they were leaving behind. Only a few hours past they had trembled at the powerlessness of their nation and shudderingly awaited the shock of invasion. Now they were going back to England bearing news that would upset old ideas, remove all fear for the future, and ally her with the most powerful nation history had ever known. They had sailed away furtively with darkened ports, and were now returning in a glare of white light, careless of vwho might observe. Events had followed each other in such remarkable sequence, with such astounding rapidity, that It wearied the mind to follow them. The king was pondering over the new situation when with no preliminary notice every light in the radioplane went out and they were left in darkness. From without and through the open door came the voices of the admiral and. ejigineev in conversation: "It can't be an enemv." signal calling hearers to the wireless telephone buzzed insistently, and he turned to answer. From the dome above they could see answering lights playing rapidly from their own craft. They heard Bevlns talking to some one excitedly, and peering once more through the side ports saw they were rushing onward to meet this other traveler of the spaces. With decreasing speed the two approached each other, retaining their altitude high above and "beyond sound of the sea. Now they were floating abreast, and finally, after a moment's tensity, they came to a stop. Their metal sides came together with an almost imperceptible jar, and they adjusted themselves for further communication. Simultaneously their great ports slid open, and the king, who had gone to the companionway, saw the interior of the other radioplane. Bevins and Brockton in delight were shaking hands and congratulating each other. They talked for a moment, and then the rear admiral retired from view. Bevins turned to the king and said: "Your majesty, the emperor of Germany wishes to come aboard." Before the king could give his assent the soldierly form of the kaiser appeared c/utlined in the light of his own port, took a cautious step across the threshold, and stood before the men of England. Whatever doubts he may have had of his reception wore set aside by the hands outstretched to receive him and the words of welcome which tht? king hastened to give him. The bulky form of the chancellor came behind, and then, conof I.tlif >dnHr«ty.. % The chancellor ponderously edged' his way forward uutll he was near them, leaving the king and his Imperial nephew ou the opposite side ofthe table." The visitors greeted and were presented to the others, and then, for <he fraction? i£f * minuje, they all stood confronting and expectant until the king with his usual tact put an abrupt end to the restraint by inviting all to be s e a t e d and'asking for an explanation of the accident The kaiser curbed, his anxiety for news of developments, and briefly recounted his adventure, appealing now and then to Brockton for details whlea he did not understand. He concluded, and hesitated for an instant In embarrassed silence. Before be. could formulate the opening question in a delicate subject the Jking had again stepped into the breech. "The world will soon he at peace," he said meaningly, looking at his kin* than. "We have come from a meeting in America with the man who has so decreed it, and I have had the honor of joining him in plans for the future." "And Germany?" "Will be glad." "But her allotment?" "The privilege of being one of the foremost in the movement." "With dignity and honor?" "Yes, and with-an opportunity to play her part voluntarily." England's king, grave' and gray and reading men from the serene heights of long life and philosophy, had expected a tempestuous outburst; but to his contentment none came. He studied the face of the ruler who had gained a world-wide reputation for warlike ambitions and constant truculence, whose mailed fist had long been clenched in readinesB for a blow, and was surprised. No sign of storm was apparent, but instead a calm and placid pair of eyes stared back at him. In rapid sentences he told of the president's design, which Great Britain would accept and which she had helped outline in detail, and closed by predicting the results which would follow. He talked low and earnestly, leaning his elbows on the table before him and addressing himself only to the emperor. His summary concluded, he straightened back into the hollow of his chair and waited for the others to speak. The chancellor, who had been so intent that he had never changed attitude or expression, shifted his ;#aze from the king to his sovereign, \>ho for a time sat wrapped in thought. As if he had come to a quick conclusion, he looked up and in three words expressed his views, i t looks perfect," he said. The chancellor smiled, the king looked satisfied and the prime minister with a Bigh of relief gave a quick sidelong glance at the American secretary of state. The lord of the admiralty was rubbing his hands. "Germany asks nothing more than fairness," the emperor aaid, "and I think she will gladly accept and enter into the conclave. It will upset her more than any other nation perhaps, because she is founded on military form; but the whole world shall understand that she permits no nation, race or people to go beyond her in enlightened methods." His stern expression changed to one of warmth. He smiled at some thought of his own and continued: "We all change, I suppose, as we advance. I have learned that one may have his ideas enlarged by accident. I have known for many days what it ia to be free to think, to learn profound lessons in philosophy from the forest and streams, and have come nearer to men of the American nation than I had ever hoped. I have formed new friendships, and by the camp fires at night have been given other views of life, of men and humanity, by a most admirable teacher." He nodded his head toward Brockton, paused for a moment and then laughed aloud, "I caught a trout that weighed nearly four pounds ant sHot four caribou!" he chuckled. At this incongruous termination of his speech his hearers gasped, and then waited for him to continue, which he did in humorous vein, interspersed with comments of graver trend. And in this recountal of adventure they read of his broadening. By suggestion he conveyed to them that he had gone away on a strange journey wrapped in the cares and dignities of position to be taught many lessonr in democracy. (TO BK CONTINUED.) Not for the Poor Man. The girl who doesn't take care of her clothes is no wife for the poor man; she needs some one who can give her an unlimited dress allowance and a maid to look after her, say3 Home Chat. There is another point. If it is too much trouble to take caro of her clothes before, it will be too much trouble to take caro of her house-keeping stores after marriage, .with the result that a large part of them axe wasted.

"I was in such a tqnr state that I had to give up my work entirely, and went to the mountains of this state, but two months there did not improve me; in fact I was not quite as well as when I left home. "My food'did not sustain me and | it became plain that I must change. j Then I began to use Grape-Nuts 'ood and in two weeks I could walk a> oiile i without fatigue, and in five weeks I returned to my home and practice, { taking up hard work again.

You will see that there was quite an expense attached to the getting the grove ready and cleaning up again and there was uo picnic tbeie. Well the committee had to make their arrangements just the same and it cost just as much as it the picnic bad been held while the committe ) lost the sales of the privileges which would have partly paid for the expence.

Taxes in whatever form thay come are never welcome. What taxes buy for the people is highly desirable—in fact indispensible; but they are paid grudgingly. Would be tax dodgers are frequently in evidence, but they are never so numerous •ttd noisy as when Congress is reftdjotticg the Tariff-Kansas City Journal. Word* To Freeze The Soul. "Your son has consumption. His case is hopeless." These appalling words were spoken to Geo; E. Blevens a leading merchant ot Springfield, N C. by two expert doctors—one a lung specialist. Then was shown the wonderful power of Dr. Kings New Discovery. "After three weeks use" writes Mr. Blevens, "he was as well as e\er. I would not take all the money in the world for what it did to my boy." Infailable for Coughs and colds, its tbe safest surest cure of desperate Lung diseases on earth. 50c and SI at F A. Siglers.

N o other university in the United States has as many students upon the one Campus t h e U n i v e n i t y of Michigan. a* The Post Card has come into tremedous importance, especially since the origin of sending pictorial cards as souvenirs. Americans are great producers of post cards but they are facing foreign rivalry of enormous proportions. This haB moved the Postcard Manufacturers and Allied Trades Protective Assn. of the United States to frame a demand on Congress for a higher rate of duty than that imposed by the tariff bill now pending. The petitioners say: "The value of importations is from $40,- 000 to $50,000 a day, and the home production represents an investment of many millions of capital and the employment of many thousands of workmen." That is an interest which deserves consideration, and when it is added that a proper rate of duty will assure a large revenue to the government, which needs the money, the proposition appeals still more strongly to the American sense of fair play.—Troy Times. "I'd Rather Die. D^tor, thin have my feet cut oft," said M. L. Bingham of Princeville, III. Bat you'll die from gangrene (whice had eaten away eight toes) if you don't" said all doctors.

Beyond the hedge stretched acre after acre of market-garden, whose already furrowed levels were filling with phantom mist, and out pt this ghostUness was blown a primeval aroma that could be subtly detected under that of the lavender.

Due to Preventive Medicine * - Life of Human Beings Prolonged and the Ravages of Infectious Die* • Cheeked. During the last 50 years preventive medicine has done far more to alleviate suffering ahd to prolong life than the average man is aware. It is est** mated that during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the death rate throughout the civilized world ranged from 50 to perhaps 80 per 1,000. To-day in London, Berlin and New York the average lies between 17 and 19. This great decrease in yearly mortality is due principally to protection from infectious diseases now afforded to children during the first five years of life; In New York city there has been a reduction since IS73 ot over 50 per cent in the death rate of the infantile portion of the population. It. is obvious that the probable lifetime has increased coincldently with the.prevention of diseases to which children of tender years are especially susceptible. Dr. Hermsnn M. Biggs of the New York city health department has estimated that "the expectation of life at birth in this city In 1866 was only a little more than 25 years, while in 1903, calculated on the death rate for that year, it had almost doubled, and equaled about forty-two years." Such statistics as these are certainly striking commentaries on the advance and triumph of medical research; for It is true beyond cavil that this progress has been dependent primarily upon the knowledge gained in the laboratories, the harvest oVperslstent investigation.— Dr. John C.

On Wednesday evening April 21st, as Mr. and Mrs. Grant Dunnkig were about to retire for the night, they were* startled by a sharp knock on the door, and hastily collecting his wits, also hid courage, Mr. D. cautiously opened the door, and peering out into the inky darkness, saw a company of about 30 of his friends and neighbors, who swarmed in and took possession of the house. But it was a peaceable poesessiou, as they had come to pay their last visit before Mr. and Mrs. Dunning moved to Howell. Soon everyone was made to feel at home, and a. very pleasant evening was spent in a social WAJ. Finally the young ladies thought of the scheme of drawing cuts for partners and when all were paired off and comfortably seated, the waiters unpacked some suspicious looking baskets which wore found to contain several kinds of refreshments, to which everyone did ample justice. After which Mr. Geo. Van Horn in behalf of the company, presented Mr. and Mrs. Dunning with a beautiful set of silver knives aud forks.

Many of our readers will remember the case where two ladies were killed by lightening near Hartlan i last season. A damage case resulted and has just been tried in Howell. We elip the following from Wednesday's Free Press: After being out from Monday after noon until 9 o'ciook Tuesday morning a jury in the circuit court gave John Allen a verdict of $500 against the Interstate Long Distance Telephone Go. for the death ot his daughter, Carrie Alton, who was kriled by a bolt of lightening which entered the home of Pnter North, it is alleged over an unused telephone wire, left dangling from the house after the phone had been removed. Mrs. North and the girl were standing at the window during the storm and both were killed by the same bolt. Miss Allen was 17 years old and her father sued for her services until she would have been 21, claiming the telephone company wa* negligent in not removing the wire from the bouse when the phone was taken out the day previous to the storm. It developed from the evidence introduced that there were no ground wires for six miles on the line. The oase is novel in that it is the first case of its kind ever tried in Michigan. It is likely to be followed by another suit tor the death of Mrs. North. * = Striking a Match. T f i a woman," said Lecoq, the do tSCttve. heatedly. "We're on the trull." "It looks like a man to me," the reporter murmured. "But didn't you notice how s!m struck that match," said Lceoq. "Z'.w •truck It away from her—a sure si«jn Sf her sex. Men always strike mntclios toward them." After the arrest of the suspect—a woman, sure enough—Lecoq anipllflec? his match statement. . "It is tobacco that causes this difference between the •exes in match striking," he said. "All of us unconsciously strike matches toward what we are going to light. Woman always Is going to light a lamp or a fire—that Is, farther off than the match—so she strikes her match away from her. But man is always going to light a pipe or cigarette—that is, nearer—so he strikes his match toward him." Death Signs in Holland. The outward signs on the houses where some one has died In north Holland are original In the extreme. When the dead person is a Protestant, a long black mantle such as the undertaker wears when he goes to the grave is hung In the middle of the front door.

Jack Russell, the famous west country sporting parson, was once cited to appear before the bishop of Exeter to answer charges of neglecting his spiritual and parochial duties, and he was also remonstrated with for keeping and following a pack of hounds. The charges were proved unfounded, and Russell refused to give up the snort. whU*h he continued to pursue almost to the day of his death in 1883, at the age of eightyeight.

"White House" it 1B, in the mind and mouth a t every American, so known across the water, too. The term, as rec «#n* researches fcy correspundtrata of the Sun have shown, is of respect able antiquity. It seems to have been traced as''fa* back as Madison's second 'administration. It will soon be entitled to its centenary, it is a familiar ligure, of homely and cordial look. It is not to be put out by a long trained intruding trollop like "Executive MaiiHion." That may accommodate itself well to the legal, formal and clerkly style, but the popular and the fittest name is and will be "White House." President Taft is no friend of pomp and swollen words.

The doc^ tor fired fcix shots, three of which struck the young man, one of which went through his wife's hat, one imbedded Itself in the wall, while the other went through the window of the jury room. Harotoon Gastanian died at St. Mary's hospital at 10:45 p. m.. about 12 hours after the tragedy. In his dying breath he maintained that he and his aunt, the wife of Dr. Boyajian, w?re innocent of the charge-made congress who from fondness for elo- 'against them by the doctor.

Yet, Mrs. At Yale 'the president's i J°yaJian. like Gastanian protested her innocence when questioned at the county jail immediately after the shooting. Standing on the blood-stained spot where Gastanian was murdered in the police court Friday morning, Dr. Boyajian, the murderer, was arraigned before Justice Stein Saturday morning. He was brought into court by Detectives Palmer and Bodinus, who made the charge of murder against him. "Do vou know the nature of the Rameses II. is dead. He was not the great ruler of ancient Egypt, as the name given him might indicate, though the date of his birth ran well back into the past. Rameses was a toad, and miners digging 500 feet below the surface at Butte, Mont., found hi»i™m ; charge against you?" asked tho court, there, imbedded in rock. He was "No, I don't know the nature of sound asleep, hut awoke when brought it," the prisoner replied into the light of day, and has been decidedly l i v e l y since.

And now, having lived tb what was liberally a green old agfcjffe^nas succumbed to the inevitable. Life under modern conditions appears to have been too swift for a reptile that had passed so long a period in unbroken stone and quiet. The April dividend and interest pay- j ments in this country aggregate considerably more than $123,000,000. This j is about $10,000,000 above the pay- ; ments of the same kind a year ago, which is convincing proof of the im- j provement in conditions. What is espe- ] daily significant is the advance in in- | dustrial dividends, which are nearly j $5,000,000 greater than in 1908. Dividends represent actual profits, while ' interest is money paid out for loans, j But from either point of view the situation is satisfactory. It shows that industrial -concerns are making more money and that railroad and other earnings are sufficient to meet all in- ; terest demands and in most cases to j provide for distribution of gains to i stockholders. j "Well, it is in connection with the shooting of your nephew yesterday," the court explained. "Do I have to answer any questions here?" the doctor asked. "Xo. you rsfay stand mute if you want to." thr/court fold him. "Very well, then," the doctor said. "1 will not say anything," "All right, I shall set your hearing for next Friday and remand you to the custody of the sheriff without bail," tlie court declared, "Make it Tuesday," suggested the prisoner. The court did as requested and then the doctor was taken over to the county jail. At I he jail he broke down and wcjit bitterly. He volunteered the Information that in Armenia radical measures are taken against a yierson who commits the offense charged to his wife. In this cDuniry he complained the laws are not strict enough. "In Armenia," said the doctor, "a person guilty of this crime Is taken by a mob about a mile and a half beyond a town and stoned. The laws of America are not sufficient; they are net strict enough." The doctor showed some surprise when Informed that his wife was out on bail. He also apologized to Detective Robert Palmer because the bullet fired at his wife narrowly missed Detective Palmer's head. The next development of the wireless telegraph idea seems to be the establishment of municipal stations In all principal cities, to the end that, no matter what storms may sweep the country, it will be possible to communicate with the outside world so long as the city hall tower remains standing, Philadelphia is taking the lead, and inasmuch as the expense is relatively Rlight, it, la likely that other cities will he communicating with each other in the i*ear future. Morocco may again become the theater of disturbance. There are signs of the outbreak of a revolt against the new sultan which may take the form of a holy war—that is, one in which the Mohammedans may be summoned to fight on the pretense of devotion to License Medicine Vendors. The bill of the state druggists' association providing a license for itinerant medicine vendors and peddlers. and against which h u n d r e d of petitions have been filed, failed to pass the committee of the whole, although there was a decided sentiment in the h o m e in favor of the measure. What killed the bill was the adoption of an amendment by Representative Baker taking the whole matter out. of the hands of the state board of pharmacy, and giving it to county clerks. There was a warm fight over this amendment on which the fate of the bill practically hung, and it was carried only by a very close vote. In his remarks upon the merits of the hill. Representative Curtiss predicted that. the introduction of this bill is but the preliminary skirmish of the big struggle that, is to ensue in this state to determine whether the peddler system should l>e allowed to overrun the state to the extent that, the country and village stores will be practically wiped out. He stated that stringent. laws with prohibitive licenses have been or are being passed in surround their faith. But. with Ralsull and aev- i ing states, and that the peddlers are eral other former disturbers of the B w ^rming Into Michigan, where they peace keeping quiet, there is hope that " e l l p , .n K wel<,omen* with open arms. ,,. _ ' ' There j s at. present no way of securthings may simmer down. , } n K a n * t a x P f , o r s u p p r v l 9 l o n o f a n y The contract has been given for the construction of the Clermont, which is to be a fan simile of the famous steamer built by Robert Fulton, and which made the trip to Albany 100 years ago.

Mr. Curtiss contended that failure to take some action on this situation would in the near future compel the legislature to pass a measure much more prohibitive than the one proposed.

Of the remaining nine, eight are Jackson plumbers and not concerned in the prison matter at all. The nineteenth man is a former resident of Jackson, now living elsewhere in the United States, and whose name all the newspaper men on the job agreed to withhold, to the end that the offlceis may lay hands on him. He Is ac* cused of a certain Jackson city, deal of no great public, interest. The list of men indicted and made public follows: ALLEN N. ARMSTRONG, ex prison warden. MILTON DAILY, agent for binder twine machinery, 115 Dearborn street, Chicago. J. A. EMMINGER, president Hoover & Gamble Co., twine machinery manufacturers. Miamisburg, Ohio. JOHN C.

ONE OTHER MAN, formerly of Jackson, indicted for a Jackson city matter, name known, but withheld till warrant can be served. Some of the comments in the jury's report are here given: Most of the time of the jury was spent in investigating the affairs of the Michigan state prison. This institution is under the control of a board of three, appointed by the governor. The members of the board receive no compensation for their service. It meets once a month and spends a few hours hearing reports, allowing bills and transacting other business, Our investigation disclosed the fact that the members of this board performed many of their duties in a perfunctory manner, and for this reason their judgment to the state was of little value in purchasing materials, allowing bills, or even in the enforcement of their own rules. Bills have been presented before this board, and have been allowed and paid without anyone in connection with the institution having actual knowledge of the correctness of the claim. Responsibility was divided and shifted from one to another of the employes, showing a lack of system in receiving and accounting for material and supplies which would not be the case If proper methods were adopted and enforced throughout. Lumber was purchased and the bills paid, and afterwards the lumber account was found to be 20,- 000 feet short, showing that the method for accounting for lumber distribution was wrong, or that the lumber was never received. Purchases by the warden of all sorts of supplier have been made and contracts awarded for them without advertising for bids We found one instance of a member of the prison hoard usln£ hia official connection for the purpose of assisting himself during the late financial depression. Currency was scarce and h a r d e n get in the small town where the official conducts a hanki Unable to secure currency himself on draffs made upon Detroit banks, he did not hesitate to invoke the aid of ihe warden to get his drafts converted into currency, and he rather naivelv admitted that It did not make any difference to him, even if state funds were used, so long as he got the currency. Stale funds were used, and while no loss t'* the state occurred in this instance, we rail attention to it to show how easy it is for some men in official positions, even with honent Intentions, to mix the public business wllh their own. At. the beginning of our Inquiry info xtate matters, we were delayed by the nlmost universal dlsjinsitlon on the part of witnesses to deny knowledge of anything wrong with the purchasing of the binder twine plant.

The body was allowed to swing until 8 o'clock in the mornliyr and the people stopped to look at the g r e a t Nubian whose name was a terror under Abdul Hamid. The dead man's face showed an undershot jaw and thick, heavy lips, in life he had been fullv 6 feet 4 inches tall. Nadir was executed after a trial by court-martial on the charge that he Instigated the mutiny of the troops April 13. He was reputed to be intensely ambitious, subtle-minded and insensible to the feelings of others. He was one of the trio that formed Abdul Hamid's private cabinet under the old regime. To Save Missionaries. Two battalions of Turkish troop3 arrived in Mersina, Thursday. It is understood that a strong detachment will at once be sent up country to Hadjln to effect the relief of the American women missionaries there who for nearly a fortnight have been besieged in their miBsiou house by a horde of fanatical Mohammedan tribesmen from the surrounding country.

England's fleet mysteriously disappears, The kaiser is missing. King ESdward of England is confronted by Admiral Bevlns of the United States. The Dreadnaught, biggest of England's warships, Is discovered at an Impassable point in the Thames. The atory now goes back to a time 'many months before the war breaks out. Inventor Roberts exhibits a metal production. This overcomes friction when electrified and is to ba applied to vessels. Roberts evolves a grsat flying machine. The cabinet plans a. radloplane war against Japanese. The atari is made for the scene of conflict. After maneuvering the airships descend, and by use of strong magnets lilt the warships, one by one, from the sea. The vessels are deposited In the United States. The British fleet accepts American hospitality and Is conveyed to the United States. The kaiser is taken on a trip— hla first visit to America—thus accounting for his disappearance. King Edward is brouRht to America on a radloplane for conference with the president. They agree to work for world peace. Announcement of the secret of the radloplane is made In Central park. New York, to the wonder of millions. The king n*?ets his men. He departs In an airship for London. Half way across the Atlantic the radloplane bearing the kaiser is met. CHAPTER XXII.—Continued. He had worked with hla hands, shared the annoyances of his companions, and known the joys of independence and self-support. He had discovered the trappings of courts to be shallow emblems and tawdry when contrasted with the true coats of primitive nature. He had learned that men when stripped of outward rank and position were very similar, and could demand only such respect from their fellows as they were entitled to by merit. Honest companionship which nought no other return was a priceless treasure. And now with this new view of life, stronger in health and unjaundiced in mind, he was glad to ally himself and his empire in a movement which promised advancement without conquest and gain without aggression. The drums of war sounded very hollow, and their unmusical beatings were dying away in the distance, going to inglorious silence and disuse. It was hetter so! In response to an order from Bevins, a servant with noiseless feet and deft hands brought refreshments to them. The king rose, and tho others immediately stood. "Before we part company and re nume our way to our homes," he said, "I shall ask you to drink my toast." He stood erect, lifted his glass high in the air until the lights above caught the quivering opalescent liquid in their rays, and then in a voice of extreme reverence said: "Gentlemen, to the ruler of that greatest of all kingdoms, Peace, his excellency the president of the United States." CHAPTER X X i f l . Peace It Declared. The world had become an- instrument attuned to the breaking pitch, and awoke to have every string within it played upon in a day. It was a royal tune in which city after city was called upon to contribute. London, which had passed a sleepless night, was astir before dawn, aroused into a pitch of terrific excitement by the return of the Rrrberts, which swooped down from the air aglow with light, and courting notice. At the iron gates la front of the palnee, where the' sentries were briskly tramping to and fro until called together by the descent of the radioplane, the Roberts came to the ground with every searchlight playing into the air. The alarm had been given before she came, and guards wero turning out from their barracks and hurrying to the palace on the run, with arms in hand to defend Buckingham from the oncoming monster. Not until it was near the ground was it discovered that from the peaks Abated three flags, the Union Jack, the Star* and Stripe* and the white banner of t r w * . .. .

The ranking officer of the guard recovered bis poise, gave the command and the soldiers saluted, after which he stepped forward In response, to the king's beckoning and received Instructions for the safeguarding of the Roberts. Bevlns and the secretary of atate, aa they walked through the Iron gates, guests of the British nation, heard the quick precise steps of men marching to form a square round their craft, and pictured to themselves the curiosityl which would be aroused when the day broke. Thug l£ was that within an hour after their arrival a crowd was collecting which outdid the one that assembled to view the Dreadnought on the day of her return. The strange and silent Roberts, resting in the roadway and floating the American and English flags, which had been intertwined by the fingers of a friendly breeze, was of greater interest than any other sight within memory. It was rumored through the throng that the king had returned; but the explanation of his absence was yet to come. For once officialdom did not hesitate, but sent to the newspapers of the city the full account of the visit to the United States, together with the reasons and results, and also the story of the fleet which had been given up for lost. It was Intimated that the official overtures of the United States would be made known at a later hour of the day through due channels, and thuB the air was charged with expectancy. In the meantime Berlin too had been given its time of tumult. The return of the emperor had been no less astounding; but he with characteristic energy had no sooner stepped within the doors of his palace than he called his secretaries and dictated a complete explanation of his own disappearance, together with a statement of what had transpired in the United States and a summary of the proposals for peace which had been formulated. The Norma waited for a brief time only, and then in full sight of an immense gathering of spectators turned her nose homeward to carry her report to Washington. This news was cabled to London, where its dissemination gave another Impetus to speculation, and before it had subsided the world's cables resumed operations. An operator in a transatlantic cable office, who for weeks had sat before his silent keys, saw a livid signal flash, and sprang excitedly to respond. Across the depths of the ocean came the words: "All embargbs are removed. The United States of America gives greeting, and reiterates the message which was the first to be transmitted, 'Peace on earth. Good will to men.' " Events were now moving with such prodigious rapidity that wherever wires of communication ran men left their occupations and waited for whatever other remarkable information might be forthcoming. For once the nations seemed in such close touch that they reactfed out to each other "to toll their own part in the unfolding of the great mystery. The whole civilized world knew speedily that the kaiser had been carried away by accident, that his health had been improved, and that he bore nothing but good will toward his captors. London transmitted the complete story of the taking of the British fleet, elucidated the Dreadnought's singular return, and also made known that the king and his associates had visited and been detained in Washington by their own volition. In the United States the night had passed with most exceptional activity. The sight of the Roberts leaving New York had been heralded from coaBt to coast, and the administration, besieged for information, yielded to the poipular demand and gave out the history of the war, including the account of the invention and the creation of the plant on the Florida key. The little inventor and his daughter were thrown into the limelight, and exaggerated accounts of their marvelous work were spread over pages of extras wherever newspapers were printed. The public insistently clamored for news, more news, throughout the hours, and seemed never satiated. All eyes were turned to the president, who finally, in desperation, declined to make any further statements, and announced that details would have to come in later sequence, when time could be given to their dictation. From the great republic the cloak of mystery and inaction was thrown aside and the cordons to the north and the south were being dissipated as if by magic. That menacing line of blue along,, the- Canadian border wws crumbling with greater rapidity than it had beat* formad. • Here and there through the air awept 50 radloplanes carrying improvised passenger accommodations, the sun showing them as flashing birds of blue carrying the hosts of the guard back to their armories, whence they might return to their homes and occupation's of peace. In every city throughout the, land astonished and exultant inhabitants watched these friendly monsters which had made the nation the most redoubtable in all the world. The guns of the border were now standing unguarded, the bivouacs obliterated, and the paths of the sentries abandoned to the effaceuijut of nature's kindly growth. Seattle was at last liberated, and proceeded to astonish- the world with accounts of tho imprisonment of the Japanese fleet which had rested in the waters of Lake Washington for so many days. Photographs of it were sent broadcast, together with interviews gained from the commanders of the napless expedition, and by special permission Admiral Kamigawa was allowed to cable to his government the first full report of his disaster which went through uncensored and unchecked. The fact was made patent to Japan that her men were prisoners on parole, her ships trapped in a helpless position, and their fate resting entirely on the mercy of the government. As if to add to the proof of helplessness, Tokio learned of the detention of the British shipB, and knew that any or all alliances could not be depended upon in the presence of such might as the Americans could brim? to bear. Another day dawned in Washington, bringing with It the unconditional capitulation of Japan. She appealed for peace with dignity, and left the suggestion of terms to the nation with whom none might dispute, trusting to her magnanimity. Congress had been called into being again, and, imbued with the spirit which had actuated the president through all his Arms in Hand to Defend Buckingham. siege of stress and trial, followed his wishes. The lone man in the White House loomed as something more than mortal, and was at last being appreciated. Japan was told that the United States demanded neither indemnities nor retention of the conquered fleet. For the benefit of the public the latter would be conveyed to New York bay, where it would be liberated and restored to its crews. The only condition was that on its return to Pacific waters it must withdraw all men it had placed in the Philippines and Hawaii, and restore the American flag with appropriate salutes. This then was the end of the great venture by the island across the western sea, which had staked its hope of advancement upon a ruthless descent on an unprepared and apparently impotent, nation. It. had spent years in anticipation, had purchased the most deadly agents of destruction when ever presented, had worked night, and day in its navy yards to build giant ships of war, had covered the United States with its spies until its espionage reached everywhere, and all for this! Now, after all Its deliberate plans and quick action, it was to accept as a sole cause for jubilation the return of the men who had manned its mighty fleet, and wait for the return of ships that were useless for all purposes. Its dream of indemnities was gone, its ambition for more territory was never to be realized, and its hope of competing with other great powers as a world factor had come to naught. It Is doubtful if the government shared in the joy of those who had given up for dead the ones they loved and were now enabled to cast aside scarfs of- mourning. The Japanese were to learn that one successful war does not constitute a series, and that all nations were not inefficient. The lesson of civilization had been hammered home with sickening emphasis. Scarcely had peace been concluded when the administration by a declaration to its own people cut as with one Mow of a Unite "a" knbt Which'threatened financial panic. It was prefaced witk a statement that the reason wfty no Indemnities had been demanded from Japan waaJyaaoae undet, altered, conditions folldjtlnj i%& war it would*1 be Imposing a'Hardship on a nation already stricken, without the need Uxer0$f. raj substance- it stated thai inasdkjien asy there Would be no future appropriations and consequently no taxation for navies or fortifications, vast reductions would automatically be made in the expense of operating the government. It was also announced that as the United States had been preseuted with a uew form of transportation by its inventor, it had sot aside for him and his heirs sufficient royalties to render them financially independent, and that iartherinore in the interest of perpetual peace the secret of the radloplane would be maintained inviolable. The railways of the country would be permitted to reorganize and continue as freight carriers until such time as their rates were deemed exorbitant or their charters expired, the government abrogating to itself all passenger traffic within the confines of its own continent, and declaring itself a competitor for all ocean transportation under tariffs to be formulated. It ended by asserting that government ownership of aerial transportation was not adopted at the behest of any political party, but solely that the people might derive the benefit and the nation maintain its invulnerable power. Thus It was that the railways were still permitted to exist and no hardship worked save in the readjustments of capitalization, which losses fell mainly upon those who had accumulated vast fortunes by the very inflation w^hich was now punctured. As if to knit the world together in international harmony, the culmination came In a message addressed to all nations which was penned by the hand of the president himself. It was his proposal for the maintenance of peace, and read as follows: "That war and its barbarisms may for all time be done away with, the United States of America submits that: "By the grace of God it has been placed in possession of such power that it could not only conquer the world, but destroy the inhabitants of other nations. This has been fully demonstrated, it has no desire to util ize its strength unjustly, but purposes to exert it for the benefit of all men. "It considers territorial greed to be the real impelling motive iu nearly all international wars. Therefore it requests all nations become signatory to an agreement in perpetuity that under no circumstances shall there be any invasion of the territory of one country by another, and that all boundary lines shall remain as now established, except they be changed by the mutual and amicable agreement of the adjoining powers to which they belong. "Questions involving national dignity can be adjusted by better means than war, as can nearly all other questions which from time to time arise between governments; hence the United States urges that full powers of adjudication and arbitration be vested in a standing commission representing each nation, wlmii shall have tor its seat of office some place upon which the greater number may agree. "The United States, having faith in the Anglo-Saxon race as representing one of the most peaceful and conservative, has formed an offensive and de fensive alliance with Great Britain, through the personal efforts of the king and his prime minister. These two governments have no desire to act as peace officers for the world, hut pledge themselves to place all their power at the command of the international commission for the enforcement of its findings."

The cerebrum, the major part of the brain, is the intellectual, but not the emotional center. The hraln represents the intelligence. The spinal cord and the cerebellum, the latter the little brain, not yet well understood, and attached to the brain proper, govern equilibrium and the muscles oi the body. But the emotions are located in the sympathetic nervous sys i^va ramifying through the body. Their chief center is the great plexus ot nerves which lies against the backlw> ne and embraces the stomach. This dons not. think, but it feels. What it does not feel is not felt at all, apart from pure intellectual cog nition. and its purely passive and subjective sensations may often be regarded as warning of danger or possible mischief.

A long engagement means a shori marrisjK^-^here la no stand without its silver lining. History is a running account of how King Somebody-or-other either did or did not get to a certain place, which nobody ever heard of, before King Somebody-else got there, from which we are usually supposed to conclude that it would have made quite a difference whether he did not not. Like nearly everything else, history has two sides. The history of the Garden of Eden depends upon whether it is related by a man or a woman. The history of the American revolution reads quite different in English books from the way it reads in our own books. The history of the civil war depends upon which side of the Mason and Dixon line you happen to be sitting when you write it. History is a bore, not only because you are unacquainted with the people who figure In it, but because it repeats itself.—Life. C O M F O R T I N G . Doctor — Most—er—fortunate you consulted me.

When a-person has used coffee for a number of years and gradually declined in health, it is time the coffee should be left off in order to see whether or not that has been the cause of the trouble. A lady in Huntsrllle, Ala., says she used coffee for about 40 years, and for the past 20 years was troubled with stomach trouble. "I have been treated by many physicians but all in vain. Everything failed to perfect a cure. I was prostrated for some time, and came near dying. When I recovered sufficiently to partake of food and drink I tried coffee again and it soured my stomach. "I finally concluded coffee was the cause of my troubles and stopped using it. I tried tea and milk in its place, but neither agreed with me, then I commenced using Postum. I had it properly made and it was very pleasing to the taste. "I have now used it four months, and my health is so greatly improved that I can eat almost anything I want and can sleep well, whereas, before, I suffered for years with insomnia. "I have found the cause of my troubles and a way to get rid of them. You can depend upon it I appreciate Postum." "There's a Reason." Read "The Road to Wenvllle," in pkgs.

The gathering was the greatest of it* kind ever held in America, and brought to Chicago some 25,0410 persona who are zealous workers in the cause of world-wide peace- Among these w*r>\ ejakont statesmen and diplomats of this "< and other nations. Unfortunately, official duties prevented both President Tatt, the honorary president, and Secretary of War Dickinson, the president of the congress, from being present. On Sunday there were special services in most of the Chicago churches, peace meetings under the auspices of socialist and labor organizations, and a large mass meeting which was addressed by President Schurman of Cornel] university, Rev. Jenkins Lloyd Jones and Dr. Emil O. Hirsch of Chicago. Welcome to the Congress. Orchestra hall was filled to the limit Monday when the first session was called to order by Robert Treat Paine of Boston, the presiding officer, for governors, mayors and hundreds of clubs had been asked to appoint delegates, and most of them had responded. President Dickinson's address, the same he delivered several weeks ago before the Hamilton club, was read, and the congress was then formally welcomed by Gov. Charles S. Deneen for the state, Mayor Fred A. Busse for the city and Rev. A. Eugene Bartlett, chairman of the reception committee. The secretary then read a brief letter from President Taft, in which the chief executive heartily commended the alms of the congress. Miss Anna B.

Trueblood, secretary of the American Peace Society, on "The Present Position of the Peace Movement." What Has Been Accomplished. f Dr. Trueblood said in part: '^'Let me sketch In the barest outlines^ wj*aJt ^ « a , already, been accomplished. The interpretation will take carejjf itself. "I.nrfThe men and, women, now a great^tost, who b e l i e f that the day ia' paif when blind brute force should dIreo**he policies oftoations and preside .ajt the settlement of their differences, are now thoroughly organized.! fija hundred years ago there was not a^soclety in existence organized tor promote appeafto the forum of reason rand right in the adjustment of international controversy* To-day there, *are more than .500, nearly every important nation having Its group of peace organizations. Their constituents are numbered by tens of thousands, from every rank and class m society—philanthropists, men of trade and commerce, educators and jurists, workingmen, statesmen, rulers even. "The organized peace party has Its International Peace bureau at Berne, Switzerland, binding all its sections Into one world body. It has its International Peaces congress which has held 17 meetings in 20 years—congresses over which statesmen now feci it an honor to preside. Triumph of Arbitration. "II. The position which the peace ' movement has reached is no less distinctly determined by the practical at-.: tainments of arbitration. We are this year celebrating what, is really the one hundredth anniversary of the birth of our movement, for it was In 1809 that David L. Dodge, a Christian merchant of New York city, wrote the pamphlet which brought the movement into being, and led i i r years later to the organisation in his parlor in New York of the first Peace society in the world. There had then been no arbitrations between nations in our modern sense of the word 'nations.' In the 100 years since 180U more than 250 important controversies have been settled By this means, not to mention an even greater number of less important cases, the settlement of which Involved the principle of arbitration. Within the past 20 years BO rapid has been the triumph of arbitration that more than 100 International differences have been disposed of by this means, or between five'and six a year for the whole 20 years. The HagUs Conferences. "III. In order to determine further the advanced position which tho peace movement has attained on its practical side, the two Hague conferences and what they have accomplished must be taken into ac count. It Is still the habit of some persons to speak disparagingly of these great gatherings and their results. Some do it because they are satisfied with nothing short of immediate perfection; others because they wish the whole movement for the abolition of war to fail. Othere do It purely from Ignorance. "The first Hague conference gave us the permanent international court of arbitration, to which 24 powers finally became parties by ratification of the convention. This court has now for eight years been in successful operation, and not less than four controversies have been referred to it during the past year. The second Hague conference enlarged and strengthened the convention under which this court was set up, and made the court the tribunal, not of 25 powers, but of all the nations of the world. "The high water mark of the work of the second Hague conference was reached in Its action in regard to future meetings of the conference. The principle of periodic meetings of the conference hereafter was approved without a dissenting voice. The date even of the third conference was fixed and the governments urged to appoint at least two years In advance an International commission to prepare the program of the meeting." Dean W. P. Rogers of the Cincinnati Law Bchool brought this session to a close with an eloquent talk on "The Dawn of Universal Peace," AddresMS Monday Evening. Monday evenings meeting was devoted to "The Drawing "Together or the Nations," and was presided over by Dr. Hirsch. The addresses wero on "Independence Versus Interdependence of Nations," by Prof. Paul S. Reinsch of the University of Wlscon sin; "Racial Progress Towards Universal Peace," by Rev. H. T. Koaling of Nashville, Tenn.; and "The Biology of War," by President David :Starr Jordan of Leland Stanford, Jr., University. At the same time another meeting was in session in M-us'ic hall, with Miss Jane Addams in the chair, The speakers there wero Joseph B. Burtt of Chicago, on "Fraternal Orders and Peace;" Prof. Graham Taylor of Chicago Commons, on "Victims of War and Industry;" Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, on "Organized Labor and Peace," and John Spargo of Yonkera, N. Y., on "International Socialism as a Peace Factor." Commercial and Legal Views. Two big meetings were held Tuesday morning, one oft commerce and Industry, presided over by George E. Roberts, president of the Commercial National bank of Chicago, and the other on "Women and Peace," with Mrs. Ellen M. Henrotin of Chicago as chairman. The former session was addressed by Belton GUreath of Birmingham, Ala., W. A. Mahoney of Columbus, O., James Arbuckle, consul of Spain and Colombia, St. Louis, and Marcus M. Marks, president, of the National Association of Clothiers, New. York city. The women heard interesting speeches by Mrs. Philip N. Moore, president of the General Federation of Women's Clubs; Miss Jane Aildams and Mrs. Lucia Ames Mead of Boston. "Some Legal Aspects of the Peace Movement" was the general topic of the Orchestra hall meeting Tuesday afternoon, and the chairman William J. Calhoun of Chicago. Prof. William 1. Hull of Swarthmore college discussed the advances registered by the t v o Hague conferences, and .TamoR i:rown Scott, solicitor of the state de* i::.rtment,. talked about some questions vliich the third' Hague conference probably will consider* "Legal Problems Capable of Settlement by Arbitration" was the subject of a leai-ned paper by Prof. Charles Cheney Hyde ftf T'htoagp . ... . ._.«._«._ - In Maadel hall, at the University or Chicago, a special aesalen'waf ^ i l d for universities ( and colleges, a fefafcnre ot which "wis an oratorical congest participated in by students.

"Neat Steps in Peacemaking" was tho topic. The audience was aroused to great enthusiasm by an eloquent and spirited address by Congressman Richard Bartholdt ot Missouri, president of the American Group, iuterparllapoj&ntary union.

Mead of Boston on "The Arrest In Competitive Arming in Fidelity to The Hague Movement." Competitive A r m i n g . In discussing this question, Mr. Mead said: "Let us consider simply Great Britain, Germany and the United States. "My little boy had an awful rash all It Is unnecessary to go further, be- over his body and the doctor said it Awful, Crusted, Weeping Eczema on Little Sufferer—A Score of Treat, menta Prove Dismal Failures., Cure Achieved by Cuticura. cause these three nations control the situation, and they are the chief sinners. If these three nations began today to act, with reference to armaments, In accordance with the spirit and purpose of The Hague convention, the peace and order of the world would be assured to-morrow. "In 1898 Great Britain spent on her navy |124,000,000; Germany spent $29,000,000; and the United States spent *50,000,OOJ). Last year Great Uritain-spent $17Q,UO0,O0O; Germany, $«3,000,000; and toe'.United States, $104,00«,000. The increase in precisely ten yearn Vhea theru should have been decrease was enormous. Our own army e penses last year were as great as our navy expenses. Our navy expenses this year will be $30,000,000 greater than last year. We are today paying for expenses of past wars and preparations for possible wars 65 per cent., practically two-thirds, of our total national revenue, leaving barely one-third available for ail conat'fuctivo purposes. What would Washington and Jefferson and Franklin say to this? We know what they did say about things of this sort. They would say torday that the republic was standing on Its head. Hope for the Future. "This Is what has come about In ten years in these three, nations because The Hague conference in 1899 did nothing about the reduction or arrest of armaments. As we now look back, we see that it could not do much directly at that time. The war system of nations could be supplanted only by the gradual development of a system of international law and justice to take its place. 'When the first Hague conference created the international tribunal, it did indirectly the most probably which it could do in behalf of the reduction of armaments, because it took a long step in furnishing the nations with such legal machinery for the settlement of their differences as makes recourse to war machinery more and more unnecessary and inexcusable. It has been In the line of this thought that the international lawyers have had their hopeful assurance. Develop the legal machinery, they said, and the armaments will perforce crumble of their own dead weight. "The continued and rapid development during the decade of provision for the peaceful settlement of international disputes has been something unparalleled in history. Tho leaders of the movement for International justice are sometimes reproached with being dreamers. The only trouble with them in the past ten years has been that, so far as tho development of tho instruments of international justice are concerned, they have not been able to dream daringly enough or fast enough to keep up with tho facts."

Once a youth thought it his solemn duty to learn something about Henry James. So, to the great admiration of his frivolous friends, he picked up "The Wings of the Dove" and disappeared Into its pages. "Two weeks later he was thinner, but still at It, when one of the afore-mentioned frivolous friends camp into the room, and, for the first time showed interest. "Say," he observed, "is The Wings of tho Dove' a collection of short stories or one long story?" The delver into James glanced up from the pages. "One darned long story," he replied, throwing hia whole soul Into the words. Playgrounds in Boston. Boston women established the first playground In 19o2.

For nearly an hour 40 me» Jabured to capture the enraged animal."-Forty bullets were cent into his side and onq into his right eye, and he was finally taken when he stepped into a chain noose. Heavy ropes quickly were fas. tened to his legs and he was tied tc trees In a corner of the park. After returning to the park from town Bartlow went to the elephant barns in the east end of the park and led the animals to water on the edge of the lake. After watering Little Tom and Queen and chaining their; in their stalls, the keeper walked to the water's edge with the older elephant. As "Tom" stood near the lake at the side of his attendant he turned his trunk upward, trumpeted, and then shoved Bartlow into the lake. After this the elephant ran to the northeast corner of the grounds. Bartlow dragged himself out of the lake, and, A couple of years ago, when the announcement ww mjade lu theoe columns that "dollar wheat" had come to stay, and that the time was not far distant when the central provinces of Canada—Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta—would bo called upon to supply a large part of the wheat consumption in the United States, there were many who laughed at the prediction* and ridiculed the Idea of wheat reaching the dollar point and staying there. Both of these predictions have come to pass. Dollar wheat ia here— and It Is not only here, but is here to stay; and at the same time, whatever unpleasant sensations It may arouse in the super-sensitive American, Central Canada is already . being called upon to help keep up the bread supply, and within ^he ne*t five years will, as James J. Hill says, literally "become the bread-basket of our In elevator* are springing up; railroads rare se^^feTxtuli thfelr branch lines In all directions; 'thousands of prosperous farmer* are leaving their prairie shelters for new and modern homes— "built by wheat:" everywhere Is a growing happiness and coale&tnu&t— happiness and contentment built by wheat—the "dollar wheat/' which haa come to stay.. Notwithstanding this, the Canadian Government is still giving away Its homesteads and selling pre-emptions at 93.00 an acre, and the Railway and Land Companies are disposing of their lands at what may be considered nominal Jiguxea, PROOF POSITIVE. T: ^ >Y.' He Hurled the Keeper Into the Air. pickiKg up a pitchfork, said to Arthur Eldredpe, head hostler: "I'll trim that d— beast." "He's mad," answered Eldredge. "Leave him alone, or you'll get killed." But Bartlow rushed toward the elephant with the pitchfork before him. "Tom" grasped the fork, jerked it from his keeper'8 hand, and sent the man Into the air with his five-foot tusks. When Bartlow fell at the elephant's feet the maddened animal pick«*d him up, walked to the barn, and beat hhn against the side of the structure until two boards were shattered .. Barikrw crawled through the barn dnor with the elephant following 'him. Rut at that instant Eldredge came around the corner and shouted for help. When 40 of frho employes appeared "Tom" began to run along the fence from the north to the south sidee of the park. Bartlow died ten minutes' later. "Tom,*" who i* one of th« biggest elephants in capthrity, wi« known as an exceptionally gentte beaut, and Rartlow is his first victim.

Yet it was this greatest of the world's railroad men who said a few days ago that "the price of wheat will never be substantially lower than it is today"—and when It Is taken into .consideration that at that time wheat had soared to $1.20, well above the dollar mark, the statement is peculiarly significant, and doubly significant is the fact that in this country the population is increased at the ratio of 65 per cent., while the yield of wjieat and other products is increasing at the rate of only 25 per cent. For several years past the cost of living has been steadily increasing in the United States, and this wide difference in production und consumption is the reason. This difference must be supplied by Ihe vast and fertile grain regions of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. There is now absolutely no doubt of this. Even the press of the country concedes the fact. Results have shown Lhat no other country in the world can over hope to equal those provinces as wheat producers, and that no other country can produce as hard or as good wheat. Said a great gram man •ecently, "If United States wheat maintains the dollar mark, Canada wheat will be well above a dollar a bushel, for in every way It is superior to our ,->orae-grown grain." With these facts- steadily Impinging '.heir truth upon our rapidly growing population, it- is hrterefltrng to note just what possibilities as a "wheat grower" our Northern neighbor possesses. While the United States will never surrender her prestige in any manufacturing or commercial line, she must very soon acknowledge, and with as much grace as she can, that she is bound to be beaten as a grain producer. It must be conceded that a great deal of the actual .truth about the richness of Canada's grain producing area has been "kept out of sight," as Mr. Hill says, by the strenuous efforts of our newspapers and magazines to stem the exodus of our best American farmers into those regions. It is a fact that up to the present time, although Canada has already achieved the front rank in the world's grain producers, the fertile prairies of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta have as yet scarcely been scratched. Millions of acres, free for the taking, still await our American farmers; and when these millions are gone there are other millions in regions not yet opened up to immigra tion. A few years ago the writer, who has been through those wheat provinces several times, laughed with others of our people at the broad statement that Canada waa bound to become "John Bull's Bread Basket" Now, after a last trip land though he is a stanch American) he frankly believes that not only will Canada become John Bull's bread-basket, but it will within the next decade at least BECOME THE BREAD-BASKET OF THE UNITED STATES. Perhaps this may be a hard truth for Americans to swallow, but it is a truth, nevertheless. And it is at least a partial compensation to know that hundreds of thousands of our farmers are profiting by the fact by becoming producers in this new country. The papers of this country have naturally made the most of the brief period of depression which swept over Canada, but now there is not a sign of it left from Winnipeg to the coast. Never have the three great wheat rais ing provinces been more prosperous. Capital is coming into the country from all Quarters, taking the form of cash for investment. Industrial concerna seeking locations, and, best of all, substantial and sturdy immigrants come to help populate the prairies. Towns are boom ing; score* of new "Do you really love me, George?"

Most of the men who went west In 1849 were from the north. There were, however, a few southerners, among them a Baltimore family who took along an old slave, Samuel Jefferson. Samuel was a patient traveler on the long journey across the plains, but vary skeptical about the success of bis master's expedition. It was not until bis master became one .of the gold kings of California that Samuel stopped shaking his head In silent protest. Samuel lived to a good old age and after the war was the special attend ant of his master's children. One day Hugh, the youngest son, was explaining to Samuel the spherical shape of the earth. "If you should go straight aheail far Mough, you'd come rl^ht around to Where you started from." "Now, loo heah, chile, yo' cyan' mole me b'lieve dat.

Once when Moltke heard himself fompared to Caesar, Turenne, Marlborough, Wellington and others he remarked, "No; 1 have no right to rank with such great captains, for 1 have never commanded a retreat," which nt the same time convoyed a subtle com pllmont to himself. Bismarck was equally subtle when he was asked whom he thought to have boon the ablest plenipotentiary at the congress of Berlin, "I don't know about the ablest," bo replied, with ft grim smile, "but the next ablest was certainly Lord Beaeonsfleld."

A bill Has passed the parliament providing for the establishment at \Vash!ngton of a' Russian agricultural agency for the purpose of introducing American methods and machinery. This is but another evidence that America leads the world, and the nations are sitting at her feet seeking instruction in the modern, art of getglng to the goa)1 without going in a circle. The American methods and machinery in agriculture account for much of the prosperity of the American people. Russia is doing good w<jrk in seeking to introduce^ them for the benefit of the vast rural population of the. empire.

It reads: "All wines, liquors, pop, ginger ale, cigars, tobacco, cigarettes, phewing gum, confectionery, cut flowers, chickens known as broilers, squabs, pigeons and all fresh fruits out of season." Nothing is said, however, about serving any of these to the inmates. The Sanders bill, as (it passed the house, requires members of boards of control to sign their names to all vouchers they approve.

The British fleet accepts American hos- SitaUty and ia conveyed to the United tates. The kaiser is taken on a trip— his first visit to America—thus accounting for his disappearance. King Edward Is brought to America on a radloplane for conference with the president. They agree to work for world peace. Announcement of the secret of the radloplane Is made In Central park. New York, to the wonder of millions. The king 'meets his men. He departs In an airship for London. Half way across the Atlantic the radloplane bearing the kaiser Is met. The. two monarchs pledge themselves to a world-peace. Edward and kaiser return home and the secret is spread over Europe. The president sends a peace message to all the world. CHAPTER XXI11.—Continued. The German emperor, true to hie promise, waa the first to give official ratification to the message, and added thereto sis earnest entreaty that all powers might apeettily join* He offered an eloquent argument In itg behalf, fortified by tola own observations, and reviewed the reasons why Germany had previously declined .disarmament tn "ee*f»renees at* The Hague. Hia attitude was that of Impartiality, and no mention waa made of the mooted questions between Great Britain and his own country, which were later adjusted satisfactorily through the commission, and passed Into history as the first dispute which that body was called upon to arbitrate. There followed * brief lapse of days, la which the other nations of the earth studied this communication ia temper according to their desires. It came as an amazing document in an ej>ocb which waa "uprooting existing coftdittonB and establishing new ones. The underlying threat of interference in any international war, however, made it patent that the wisest course would be in, graceful acceptance. Hence it was that air the principal governments bound themselves in the •coffcpact. The \pfit page had been written in the voluminous history of str|fe. The hlsstag of the barb, the retching of -the * catapult, the clangor of sword and buckler, ami the booming of. cannon, which in the course of time had succeedec" each other, were sounds to be heard no mere on land or sea. Peace had at last assumed it* tranquil dominion. - a : When the Jast acceptance from-the most laggardjy nation was received, the news was made known to the silent man rn the White House. ' It was on another night in summer when the* moon cast its shadows over the city and the shining breast of the r^ver. Still altrae, bnt now beloved and understood by all his countrymen, he knelt by aa»open window, and, with a face glorified by the radiance of the night and his thoughts,-thanked the 3od who had made "him steadfast to accomplish his desire. The president, too, had reached his goal of dreams. CHAPTER XXIV. The Last Cruise. Summer, dying, was bravely courto sylng to its executioner, fall. Over the immense canyons of the mountainous city of New York the afternoon s»in was drawing the curtains of a gala day.

Representatives of the world had assembled, under the pretext of witnessing an international marriage-;'to pay deference t o the one Invincible power. It waa In reality more than that: ) t was the universal ratification of peace, of mutuaj dlsbaadment and dlsarmam t B t i f * - ' jXs th^ day lengthened, the jelly poured its throng to the snores of the bay, where ware assembled, varied tQiotdrons. The time for the 4«paxture of these was at hand, and acurrylng launches conveyed aboard the men whom they had brought to this alien weddldg. These eminent passengers were, among the comparative; few who had witnessed the ceremony and bad gained more than a casual glance at the brtde and groom. Those other thousands had been contented with a stare at Hlllier and his wife aa they rode in state through the broader each country vied afforded no pleasure equal to that of being alone , and at rest with each other They had seized the first opportunity after the marriage to effckpt*, leaving their destination unknown. ". They had retreated to the seclusion of Athnxtic Highlands, where the great beacgn Stalxds faclqg the" broad stretch 6/4 0neb sea, and where they might be removed from the pump and pageantry, of nations. And even as that great emb*rl&t£on took 'place. along the water frbn't of the city, vhjqh, .loomed far, behind them, tjb^y | the last time. No mere would stood on a cliff by the ocean side They bad. avoided the J**t act In the to the president and .the inventor, and. w#re content to.be left alone. Suddenly from ta*v far • away hay came the slow, sullen undertone or gun* ID salute. .Again came the thunderous monotone, and then, emerging from the distant has* Into the clearer air, appeared a flight of aerial things in orderly formation. The girl's hands' oiasped themselves together aa she watched. There they were, 2$ miles away, the ships—her ships—which she had led out to victory and directed through th« maze' and turmoil of battle. She Stood silent and spellbound as they slowly advanced, and then discerned on the waters beneath them the slow moving shapes of ships of the sea, The raHioptanes were traversing the air as an escort above those others In final parade. through swe g r and* blood, ajl p o u * * out unstintedly fbr this—consignment to* the selta^ fteApi of* a world that bad abandoned war; The glorHja of past deeds XJL valer woajd uo lunger be emulated upon the waves. The sea i had b#*]B untenanted-, before man's Ingenuity found a means of breasting it. His coming had left it unscarred and unimproved. It alone was unconquerable, changeless and heedless. Through centuries it* had scorned ' him, and now It waa bidding his craft , farewell and sarjryjg%„ hJa^fieats ,¾¾ woujd Its wastes echo to his parsing salute or 1 witness his trivial strainings for a drama ot deference, a reception, gives hag. Only the song of the fisherman Thousands Had Been Contented with a, Stare, thoroughfares in the morning sunlight, and for details had read the newspapers which, glorying in a plethora of news, had told them all. Nothing had been neglected, not even the fact that this clean-cut Englishman had given the best that wait in him for his country, and that the calm-eyed Amerloaa girl was the one who had played her part in war and was the idol of her countrymen. Already they had published pictures of the king and president, who as guests had stood side by side, and portraits of the most distinguished men of the globe who had deferentially taken places behind tbem. Only one thing was hidden from the eager public, and that was the manner in which they had been reunited. Guy, saddened and worn by failure, had been one of the first to enter the United States when the-barrier against the world was thrown down, and Norma, still yearning for his love, bad gone to his arms as if nothing had ever held them apart. She was a world figure now, and the world was at her feet. Behind him was nothing save the knowledge of earnest endeavor and honest defeat; but to her he had been the same, nor did che anticipate that a king would later takv1 his hand and say, "Well dono, even though you failed." They had passed the brief daya prior to the ceremony in dread, courting neither the display nor the, \inw-: ii^'ht. into which they were driven by the parts they had played.. .The Publicity had been against their wishes, rnd the gifts of the world in whfch might henceforth echo avJkmg th« shores whereon * it beat I t had oni mated those sturdy buns of oak and steeftbat once had dared its force. (Ugh. above swept the invaders of that new territory to which, /roan, had at last laid claim and was to hoJjd'fn domination for his use. Bluje as the skies above them, the radiopuinea hover ad over and bade farewell to the vanishing fleets. In the vanfoard flew the Norma* her colors fluttering In the' breeze of Sight as they had dose on. that day. when s h e swooped down through screaming sheila to wxest power from the enemy. Floating aftep her moved the huge Roberts, its metal sides throwing back the rays of the western sun. Close behind in stately pursuit w a s Seventeen, whose plates had felt the biting In twin procession thq f force of the dead Takumo's guns. And so they came, bidding farewell to the ships of an abandoned sea. Small wonder that the soul of the girl who watched felt one instant's regret that she was never again t o know the exhilaration of the fray! A half smile of tenderness parted her lips as She thought that there in the air above her were her friends and companions in arms—grim old fighting Bevins with his prayerful oaths, good-natured Brockton whose kindliness she knew, and studious little Jenkins whose Imperturbability equaled his steadfast bravery. Guy, understanding and respecting the storm of feeling which must be hers at sight of this pageantry of which she had been such a vital part, watched her in silence. Almost at their feet squatted Fort Hancock, whose guns were to bellow for the last time. It too, like its fellow forts, was of the dying. Like them its bastions would be abandoned and the men within driven to ways of peace. Fortress and ship, garrison and crew, would be no more. Crumbling, untenanted walls left as records of a nation's defense, and rotting uniforms relegated to garrets, would be all that were left—armies reorganized and reduced for police force only, and sailors become fishermen or pasaiag their lives in other occupations and remlnlscenslng of the sea; swords rusting in scabbards and guns corroding In embrasures, nothing more! The last salute had boomed out. Lower and lower flew the radioplaaes, till they were close above the outgoing ships. The ports of the peacemakers opened, and from them fell garlands of flowers, which fluttered down through the air indiscriminately upon the doomed craft and the waves themselves— a tribute of peace from the living and wreaths for the dying gladiators of war. Hand in hand Norma and Guy1 stood upon the headland beneath the gray beacon lights that would welcome strange travelers from foreign ports no more. Into the darkening skies pf the east the fleets of the nations were speeding to dissolution and death. The long, steady swell of the free and unburdened sea came monotonously hammering at their feet. In silence they watched the relics of cruel war sail out, saw their hnlle disappear, saw the trails of smoke diverge as each squadron sought its own course, and then looked into each other's eyes, feadlngv therein nothing, but., a prpmlse of love and serenity. Tbelr troubles had vanished as had those fleets of the sea, and life with all its possibilities of accomplishment and contentment was before them. They turned from the great- silent ocean and walked Into the golden radiance of the sunset toward their home. TIIK KNDT fleets came nearer, embodimejits of might. Thl guns of Governor's island belched as they advanced^ then from opposite sides of the', channel the voices of Ports Lafayette and Hamilton gave greeting and farewell. Onward they swept to where the colossal statue of Liberty held her beacon aloft in token of a new enlightenment of the world, and the cannon of the sea fleet spoke for the flr3t time in unison, saluting as they passed in one terrible explosion of sound which reverberated along the shores and was thrown back by the echoes. Here they came, the dying gladiators of all nations, sailing out to doom! Well in front were the vanquished squadrons of Japan, their funnels repaired for the last -cruise they would ever make, but stripped of fighting masts. Back of them came the mighty ships of England, with prows turned outward for their final voyage. German cruisers, graceful and well manned, followed; while in their wakes could be seen others flying the banners of Italy, of France, of Russia, and nearly every maritime nation of the globe. Flanking this assemblage were the vessels of the American navy, which but a short time be fore had been regarded as the country's bulwarks, and were now participating in the last review. The science of ages, the experience of all who had gone down to the, sea, the refinement of skill and study, and the genius of .evolution were embodied in those metal sides. They represented the wealth of nations collected V * PUBLIC S T A - f e t a Qy a Public Official—bounty Treasurer of Gran bury, Texas. • A ; y *"mr*Art*H6m tJesmty Treasure* of Qranbifry; Hootr* - G o v *exaa- • says ^ "Years ago a severe [•••} fall injured my kidneys.

Finally the lawyer appealed to the judge, and h e ordered her to remove the bonnet. "I'll do no such thing," she said, tartly. "I am accustomed to having my will respected," said the judge. "Well, I don't care if ycu are a judge, that bonnet stays rlffht wj>3re it is!" "Perhaps, madam," the judge'put iti, ironically, "you would like to ta-ia my place as judge, too, eh?"

REASON arid was soon ont Where the crowd was gathering. After miich "delay there wiw a medium «'*ed stream of-water turned <eii to the blazing uiaas from one bone-pipe. It was of little avail and i s less than a half hour a large frame house, built of the* pine lumber such w it osed in ail the frame buildings here/ was, literally consumed. . 1 never saw anything go up hi flamas so quickly. Tbey tell me this i« the sixth house that has burned in thin part of the city within the past few months. Think of a city of over 5 thousand inhabitants having uo fire protection but. • one hose-pipe ami volunteer firemen. There is no public library here"and the school is no better than ie fottod in country villages. Prohibitidh is doing much for tjie Bouth Florida ie soon to go dry. The next step we want to take after getting state and eventually national prohibition is to see that this fertile soil of the.eputh ia.put to better UBe than the raising of tobacco, the use of which perverts the appetite ftpd destroys the taste for the kinds of food so necessary for the building up of a strong physique and a mental ami spiritual character that is God-like. I would like to fceLl you something about the pine forests and the process of turpentine distilation but my letter is getting too long and I must leave that for some future time. I agree with our friend and ex-president of the O. B. A G . Assn., Ed. Kearney, that we should hear from more of our distant friendH of the country and let us look forward to our gathering in the old Ho~nie Village in 1011 as the best and happieat time of all. Let us eliminate everything that tends to make prominent the financial feature connected therewith, and let us meet to get and to give cheer, comfort, and inspiration toward the highest ideals of rife.

MARY L. CATS Mary L>- tate was born in the town of Chili, Monroe Co., Nov. lOtb, -1828, and died in Rochester, N. Y., May 10, 1909, being 85 yra. and 6 mos. of. age Miss Gate remained in Ohili until, 186b" wbejt she jams to Pinckney, Michigan, where she has made ber homenntil the present tine. She went to Rochester last fall to spend the winter with her sister Mrs. Susan Campbell where she was at the time of her death. Miss Cate became a member of the Cong'l church here in '86 and at oncj became a faithful worker for ber Master and the uplift of the community in general. She was an Angel of Mercy in times of sickness and need and no work was left undone tbat she could with hands of kind words accomplish. She was a faithful worker in the Ladies Aid where her words of advice will be missed. Ever a constant reader of the Bible, she became a scholar in the Good Book. Her words and works will be missed in the unfolding years, but she will still speak with greater and -till greater force from her "Home Beyond" as the coming years shall roll by. She is mourned by her two sisters, Mrs. Susan Campbell, Rochester, N. Y.; Airs. Lavina Brokaw, Pinckney; a nephew, L. D. Brokaw, Detroit, Mich., Mr. and Mrs. Met Rose, Bay City, Mich.; Mrs. L. T. Clark. Detroit; Mrs. £. Fields, Green Oak, Mich., besides a large number of sympathic friends and neighbors. We picture de*th as coming to destry; let us rather picture Christ as coming to save. We think of death as ending; let us think of it as beginning. We think of losing; let us think of gaining. We fbink of parting; let us think of meeting. We think of going away; let us think of arriving. And as the voice cf death whispers, "You mu9t go from earth," let us hear the voice of Christ saying, "You are but coming to Me!" Working Nicely. The Creamery here has been doing business for more than a week and ia doing nicely: The amount of cream and milk is increasing each day and there is every showing of a grand sue cess. Mr. Day of the Michigan Creamey Co. has put nothing but the bust ma* chinery into the plant and already jobbers are calling on him and trying to make arrangements for the entire production of the factoiy, both cheese and butter. Remember this is not an institution for the summer only, but will run the entire twelve months and you get your money every two weeks. There is nothing pays better dividends than the milch con on the farm and the> sooner farmers stock up and get ready to sell milk to the Michigan Creamery Company, the quicker the farmer will begin to add to bis bank account. II you cannot get ready before, make arrangements at least to be ready for the winter months. Lay in feed and secure cows coming in at that time and reap a harvest. Remember prices are better in the winter than in the summer, running as biyh as $1.50 per 100 pounds. Many have never kept many cows in this section as it was too far from any factory, but ncr.v that there U one right here at your door that will take any amount from 10 to 10,000 lbs there is no reason why you should not get in on the ground floor and win out with the rest. * Obituary* A HIAhly £»teemed Citizen of Putnam Fa*»es A w a y , after an (line** of over T w o Years.

He was united in marriage with Miss Harriet Fewlass in 1857. On the 21st of April of the following year, he and hie young bride, together with her parents, 6ade farewell to all loved ones and started for America. J-ust five weeks afterwards they began to settle on the farm where they have, toiled and shared each others joys and sorrows up to the time of his death. To them six children were born: G. D. at, homa, Mrs. .).>hn Bruff of Marion, W. H. of Putnam, Mrs. VVm. Buhl of Gregory, Mrs. Fred Burgess of Putnam and H. M. of Howell. Air. Bland was a kind neighbor and ever teady to lond a helping band. The doors of his home were willingly thrown open to hospitality. Nearly every Sabbath he was found in the House of Worship as Ion* as it was possible for him to attend. Often in his last sickness, he has said, UI leave all with the dear Lord, He knows best." We cannot weep as those who weep without hope, for in his last moments be said, "Bless the loving Lord, He will be with me." He leaves besides his loving wife and children, one dear brother in England, eicrht grandchildren and a host of friends to ar=ourn their Jo*. "Dearest father thou hast left u* And thy lom we deeply feel; But 'tis God that has bereft us, He can ail our Borrow heal. r Yet again we hope to meet thee, When the day of life is fled.

This section was visited again by a big wind and rain atorm last Saturday. It looked quite threatening for a time but the worst went west of town. In the western and northern part of the county much damage was done and near FowierviMe one woman, Mrs Wm, Ludke, who was afflicted with heart trouble, died from fright. In Fowlertrille several buildings, including the elevator, depot and Catholic church were pratically destroyed. The priest and janitor were in the building wben the storm struck, it but got out before the walls fell. There were three peoole injured in that village, one little girl having her arm broken. Tbo damage is estimated at about 140,000 there. From there northest through the county the storm continued its work ot destrnction and many buildings were unrooted and some entirely destroyed. The storm covered an area of about a mile in width and it is a wonder that more were not killed or injured. * * W. B. DARROW QA1S Of THAHKg.

"A woman's sphere Is to keep hcAise," the masculine conservative growls, whereat the suffragette pouts and protests. Yet both may be right. Much depends on the breadth of the term. The trouble is the suffragette and the antl-suffragette seem to imply that housekeeping is not much of a job. As a matter of fact, it is the bigpeat in creation, when measured by any true standard of values. It is really the one and only universal, indispensable trade, as necessary izi China as in America, among the Esquimos as among the Europeans, in the cave as well as in the palace, beneath the thatch no less than beneath the tile. And it Is the oldest, beginning as it did when Eve gave Adam his first breakfast and the morning stars Warbled the firHt song.

The police have Duggan's bloody clothes and the bloody razor found on him when the police arrested him shortly after the crime. Duggan's record is entirely against h.m. He has been arrested numerous times in this and other cities for various crimes, and has twice at least fought the. police with the wicked frenzy whiph be displayed last, night. He refused to talk a'bout the matter today. Friends of Schantz say he struggled with Duggan when he was attacked, and they believe that was the cause of the slashing the man did with the razor. ' James Duggan was taken to the city hospital and there was positively identified by Rep. Schantz as the map who slashed the legislator across the throat last week. Schantz is still weak from loss of blood, but declares he will be out in a few days. Col. Avery Stood, Mute. Col. Stephen H. Avery, former quartermaster- general, indicted by the grand jury for the embezzlement of $2,300^ was arraigned before Judge Parkinson in Jaekson, waived the reading of the Indictment, stood mute and was held for trial, bail being fixed at $3,000. Charles Lewis and J. H. Mahoney qualified as sureties.- Sheriff Bean arrested Col. Avery on a sage brush ranch near Wendell. Lincoln county, Idaho, which he had purchased. The indictment charges that Avery embezzled the sum of $2,- 300 by collecting money on a contract for a heating plant, which his firm installed in the postofflre. On January 6, 1906, Postmaster Richardson turned over a draft to Avery, which he cashed at a local bank, and immediately left the city, leaving creditors in the Jurch. His bondsmen, a surety company, has made good the'defifcit. Avery claims he has a good defense on the charge of embezzlement, but would make no other Statement. STATE BRIEFS. The equal-suffragists may consider Mew England as practically lost to ihe cause, since a prominent one of :helr number sarcastically told the Pilgrim Mothers that from the tens of housands she has met in the United States whose ancestors came over >>n the Mayflower, she was led to believe that vessel the size of the Lusitania, or a whole fleet of modern steamers. Now there is a coldness in the cause. For the second time within a couple of weeks, the American bluejacket has distinguished himself. A fire broke out In a Philadelphia tenement on Friday; a man climbed the rainspout to the Decond story and helped five persons to safety. On his cap was the name of the battleship Kearsarge, but he refused to give his own name. His modesty gave the finishing touch to a brave deed. A Mysterious Girl. A tangible clue seems to have been secured by the Muskegon officers to the identity of Hattie Talket, the 13- year-old girl, whose unbroken silence since she was first, found in that city, unkempt arid begging, has baffled all the attempts of the Muskegon and Grand Rapids authorities to find her parents. County Poor Superintendent Gordon has received an unsigned letter mailed from Newaygo inquiring for the girl, purporting to be from her parents. The writer states that he thinks Hattie is his (laughter who ran away three months ago and asks for a description of her. He says that he saw her picture in a Grand Rapids paper, evidently having picked up and old issue. The local authorities are at a loss what to do in case the writer of the letter proves his parentage. It is plain that Hattie came from an ignorant household, while now she is well looked after by a farmer's family at Nunica. There is always a day of settlement Tor countries where fanatical mobs or murderous Rnldiers are permitted to run loose. China learned that lesson when it met the bill for damages to foreigners by the Boxers. Turkey and Persia will be on the collector's route when the mischief wrought by bloodyminded Moslems and fierce Turcomans has to be nafd far A Magnificent Gift. It, is announced that while in Naples, Chase S. Osborn ordered cast a bronze monument, "Lupo de Roma," first modeled by Michael Angelo,. and since then the symbol of Roman civilization.

The estimates of from 20,000 to 25,- 000 Christians killed by Mohammedans in the province of Adana, made a foftntght ago, must be revised. It is now ascertained that the number can hardly reach more than 10,000, possibly less, Thousands who were supposed to have been killed in the country districts, have since come into some one of the large towns for relief. Nearly 50,000 persons have received assistance from the American, French, German, Armenian and Turkish relief committees or officials In Adana, 22,000 in Marash, 14,000 in Hadjin, 3,000 In Mersina, 2,000 in Latakia, 4,000 in Tarsus and a comparatively large number in Aintah and Alexandretta.

An attack is being made by the press upon the kaiser for his reckless extravagance. The nation has already an annual deficit of $125,000,000 and the papers are beginning to complain that the nation cannot afford to pay $6,000 for the cost of the journey when his majesty travels...from Potsdam to Venice. The latest example of the kaiser's extravagance is in connection with an order he recently gave for three new motor cars-. He ordered them to be painted pale yellow, with dark brown streaks. Owing to an official's mistake the streaks were painted black, and although the difference was undistingulshable to the ord miry eye the kaiser ordered i all three- cars to be repainted. Then, ' as this entailed delay, he bought a ready made car, which cost $S,00O, and when he got. the three new cars he gave the ready made one away to a personal friend.

Wave-Toeeed and Castaway. HE beginning waa at Cape Town, when Blake and Wlnthrope boarded the at/earner aa fellow, paaaengera with JLady Bayrose and her party. This was a week after Wlnthrope fcad arrived on the tramp steamer from India, and her ladyship had explained to Miss Leslie that it was as well for her not to be too hasty in accepting his attentions. To be sure, >he waa an Englishman, his dress and manners were irreproachable, and he was in the prime of ripened youth. "Yet Lady Bayrose was too conscientious a chaperon to be fully satisfied with her countryman's bare assertion that he was engaged on a diplomatic mission requiring reticence regarding bis identity. She did not see why this should prevent him from confiding i n her. Notwithstanding this, Wlnthrope •came aboard ship virtually as a member of her ladyship's party. He was ao quick, so thoughtful of her comfort, and paid so much more attention to tier than to Miss Leslie, that her ladyship had decided to tolerate him, even before Blake became a factor in the situation. From the moment he crossed the gangway the American engineer entered upon a daily routine of drinking* and gambling, varied only by attempts to strike up an off-hand acquaintance with Miss Leslie. Thla was Wlnthrope's opportunity, and his clever frustration, of - what Lady Bayrose termed "that low bounder's impudence" served to install him in the good graces of her ladyship as well as 1n the favor of the American heiress. Such, at least, was what Wlnthrope Intimated to the persistent engineer with a superciliousness of tone and manner that would have atung even a British lackey to resentment. To Blake it was supremely galling. He could net rejoin in kind, and the slightest attempt at physical retort would have meant irons and confinement. It was a British ship. Behind Wlnthrope was Lady Bayrose; behind her ladyship, as a matter of course, was all the despotic authority of the captain. In the circumstances, it was not surprising that the American drank heavier after each successive goading. Meantime the ship, having touched at Port Natal, steamed on up the east coast, into the Mozambique channel. . On the day of the cyclone, Blake had withdrawn into his stateroom with a number of bottles, and throughout that fearful afternoon was blissfully unconscious of the danger. Even when the steamer went on the reef, he was only partially rouaed by the shock. He took a long pull from a quart flask of whisky, placed the flask with great care in his hip pocket, and lurched out through tkre open doorway. The sea was breaking over the steamer in torrents; but between waves Blake was dragged across to the aide and flung over into the bottom of the one remaining boat. He served as a cushion to break the fall of MISB Leslie, who was tossed in after him. At the same time, Wlnthrope, frantic with fear, scrambled into the bows and cut loose. She and Winthrope saw the steamer Blip from the reef and sink back into dpep water, carrying down in the vortex the mate and the few remaining sailors. After thftt all was chaos to tliem. They were driven ashore before the terrific gusts of the cyclone, blindcrl by the stinging spoondrift to all else but the hell of breakers and ccrrJ reefs in whoso midst .thqy. awlrled so dizzily. And through it all Blake lay huddled on the bottom board* There otS^^^^ih^hnnl, mo- "| meat when the boat-went apkaaftafr alarm pf em J*f».-i t j y !

A smother of broken aurf came seething rnp from doe of the- great breakers, to roll him over and scrape him a little farther, up the muddy shore. There the flood deposited him far. a m^waati uatjjl it could- gather force to aweep back and drag him down again toward the roaring aea that had cast Him up. Blake* objected—not te the danger, of being drowned, but to Interference with hia repose. He had reached the obstinate stage. He grunted 4 protest. Again the flood seethed up the shore, and rolled him away from the danger. Thla waa too much! He set bia jaw, turned over, and ataggered to hia feet Inatantly one of the terrific wind-blaats struck hia broad back and aent ~nixn spinning for yards. He brought up in a shallow pool, beside a hummock. Under the lee of the knoll lay Wlnthrope and Miss Leslie. Though conscious, both' were draggled and bruised and beaten to exhaustion. They were together because they bad come ashore together. When the boat capsized, Mlas Leslie had been flung against the Englishman, and they had held fast to each other with the desperate clutch of drowning persons. Neither of them ever recalled how they gained the shelter of the hummock. Blake, sitting waist-deep in the pool, blinked at them benignly with his pale blue eyes, and produced the quart flask, still a third full of whisky. "I ahay, froa'a." he obaerved, "ha' one on me. Won' cos' you shent— notta re* shent l" "You fuddled lout!" shouted Wlnthrope. "Come out of that pool." "Wassama'er pool? Pool's allri'!" The Englishman squinted through the driving Bcud at the intoxicated man with an anxious frown. In all probability he felt no commiseration H <*• Sleeping the Sleep of the Just and the Drunkard. for the American; but it was no light matter to be flung up barehanded on the most unheal thful and savage stretch of the Mozambique coast, and Blake might be able to help them out of their predicament. To leave him in the pool was therefore not to be thought of. So soon as he had drained his bottle, he would lie down, and that would be the end of him. As any attempt to move him forcibly was out of the question, the situation demanded that Winthrope justify his intimations of diplomatic training. After considering the problem for several minutes, he met it in a way that proved he was at least not lacking in shrewdness and tact. "See here, Blake," he called, in another lull between the shrieking gusts, "the lady is fatigued. You're too much of a gentleman to ask her to come over there." It required some moments for this to penetrate Blake's fuddled brain. After a futile attempt to gain his feet, he crawled out of the pool on all fours, and, with tears in his eyes, pressed hia flask upon Miss Leslie. She shrank away from him. shuddering, and drew herself up in a huddle of flaccid limbs and limp garments. Winthrope, however, not only accepted the flask, but come near to draining i t Blake squinted at the diminished contents, hesitated, and cast a glance of maudlin gallantry at Miss Leslie. She lay coiled, closer than before, in a draggled heap. Her posture suggested sleep. Blake stared at her, the flask extended waveringly before him. Then he brought it to his lips, and drained out the last drop. "Time turn in," he mumbled, and sprawled full length in the brackish ooze. Immediately he fell into a drunken stupor. Wlnthrope, Invigorated by the liquor, rose to his knees, and peered around It was impossible to face the scud and spoond¥tft*from the furiqug, saa; bu^' CHAPTER II. Worse Than Wilderness. WAIL from Miss Leslie roused the Englishman out of a dream in which be had been swimming for life across a sea of boiling oil. He sat up and gazed about him, half-dazed. The cyclone had been followed by a dead calm, and the sun, already well above the horizon, waa blazing upon them over the glassy surfaces of the dying swells with fierce heat. Winthrope felt about for bis hat It had been blown off when, at the striking of the steamer, he bad rushed up on deck. As he remembered, he straightened, and looked at his companions. Blake lay snoring where he had first outstretched himself, sleeping the sleep of the just—and of the drunkard. The girl, however, waa already awake. She gat with her hands clasped in her lap, while the tears rolled slowly down her cheeks. "My—ah—dear Miss Genevieve, what Is the matter?" exclaimed Wlnthrope. "Matter? Do you ask, when we are here on this wretched coast, and may not get away for weeks? Oh, I did so count on the London season this year! Lady Bayrose promised that I should be among those presented." "Well, I—ah—fancy, Lady BayroBe will do no more presenting—unless it may be to the heavenly choir, you know." "Why, what do you mean, Mr. Winthrope? You told me that she and the maids had been put in the largest boat—" "My dear Miss Genevieve, you must remember that I am a diplomat. It was all quite sufficiently harrowing, I assure you. They were, indeed, put into the largest boat— Beastly muddle!— While they waited for the mate to fetch you, the boat was crushed alongside, and all in it drowned." "Drowned!—drowned! Oh, dear Lady Bayrose! And she'd traveled so much—-oh, oh, It Is horrible! Why did she persuade me to visit the Cape? It waa only to be with heir—And then for us to start off for India, when we might have sailed straight to England! Oh, it is horrible! horrible! And my maid, and all—It cannot be possible!" "Pray, do not excite yourself, my dear Miss Genevieve. Their troubles are all over. Er—Gawd has taken them to Him, you know." "But the pity of it! To be drowned —so far from home!" "Ah, if that's all you're worrying about!—I must say I'd like to know how we'll get a snack for breakfast. I'm hungry as a—er—groom." "Eating! How can you think of eating, Mr. Winthrope—and all the others drowned? This sun is becoming dreadfully hot. It is unbearable! Can you not put up some kind of an awning?" "Well, now, I must say, I was never much of a hand at such things, and really I can't imagine what one could rig up. There might have been a bit of sail in the boat, but one can't see a sign of it. I fancy it was smashed." Miss Leslie ventured a glance at Blake. Though still lying as he had sprawled in his drunkenness, there was a comforting suggestion of power in his broad shoulders and square jaw. "Is he still—in that condition T "Must have slept it off by this time, and there's no more in the flask," answered Winthrope. Reaching over with his foot, he pushed against Blake's back. "Huh! All right," grunted the sleeper, and sat up, as had Winthrope, half dazed. Then he stared around him, and rose to his feet. "Well, what in hell! Say, this is damn cheerful!" "I fancy we are in a nasty fix. But T say, my man. there is a woman present, and your language, you know—" Blake turned and fixed the Englishman with a cold stare. 'Look here, you bloomin' lud." he said, "there's juat one thing you're goiag to understand, right here and now. I'm not your man. and we're not going t o have any ef that kind of blatter.'

And now, I fancy that, instead of wasting time—" "It's about time you introduced me to the lady," interrupted Blake, and he stared at them half defiantly, yet with a twinkle in hia eyes. Miss Leslie flushed. Wlnthrope swore softly, and bit his lip. Aboard ship, backed by Lady Bayroee and the captain, he had goaded the American at pleasure. Now, however, the situation waa reversed. Both title and authority bad been swept away by the storm, and he was left to shift for himself against the man who bad every reason to hate him for his overbearing Insolence. Worse still, both he and Misa Leslie were now dependent upon the American, in all probability for life itself. It waa a bitter pill and hard to swallow. Blake was not slow to observe the Englishman's hesitancy. He grinned. "Every dog has his day, and I guess this is mine," he said. "Take your time, if it comes hard. I can Imagine it's a pretty stiff dose for your ludshlp. But why in—why in frozen hades an American lady should object to an introduction to a countryman who's going to do hia level best to save her pretty little self from the hyenaa— well, it beats me." Winthrope flushed redder than the girl. "Miss Leslie, Mr. Blake," he murmured, hoping to put an end to the situation. But yet Blake persisted. He bowed, openly exultant. "You aee, misB," he said, "I know the correct thing quite as much aa your swells. I knew all along you were Jenny Leslie. I ran a survey for your dear papa when he was manipulating the Q. T. railroad, and he did me out of my pay." (TO BE CONTINUED.) FIRST CHARGE TO CUSTOMERS, Somewhat Novel Syatem in Vogue In Stores of Salem.

"Thank you; I really couldn't use it" I replied, edging away for the door. "But the charge is ten cents," she added, coldly, moving nearer. "So I understand," 3aid I, skillfully maneuvering for a hurried but dignified exit. "The admission to the store is ten cents," she put in here, with chilly distinctness, outflanking me.

A minister's wife had quite a tussle with coffee and her experience is interesting. She says: "During the two years of my training as a nurse, while oh ni^ht duty, I became addicted to coffee drinking. Between midnight and fourth'the morning, when the patients were asleep, there was little to do except make the rounds, and it was quite natural that I should want a good, hot cup of coffee about that time. It stimulated me and I could keep awake better. "After three or four years of cofTee drinking I became a nervous wreck and thought that I simply could not live without my coffee. All this time I was subject to frequent bilious attacks, sometimes so severe as to keep me in bed for several days. "After being married. Husband begged me to leave off coffee for he feared that it had already hurt me almost beyond repair, so I resolved to make an effort to release myself from the hurtful habit. "I began taking Postutn. and for a few days felt the languid, tired feeling from the lack of the stimulant, but I liked the taste of Postum and that answered for the breakfast beverage all right. "Finally I began to feel clearer headed and had steadier nerves. After a year's use of Postum I now feel like a new woman—have not had any bilious attacks since I left off coffee." ^ "There's a Reason." Read "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs.

The officials of the U. 8. treasury have refused to indorse distillery warehouse receipts so that they might be used as collateral. The refusal is based upon the uncertain value of whiskey, in view of the growingprohibition movement. The plain interference is that "Uncle Sam1' does not expect the temperance wave to recede perceptibly. The moral curse of the saloon ought to be sufficient to sound its knell everywhere. As saloons increase in number to a giveu number of the people, insanity increases, divorces increase, men felons increase and boy felons increase. President Tafts decision that the present form o f government of the District of Columbia should be changed will meet with the approval of all who have the interests of Washington at heart. I t is considered not unlikely that Mr. Taft will advocate the same policy for the District that Mr. Roosevelt approved, the abolishing of the three commissioners and placing at the head of the District a govenor or mayor on whom shall rest the entire responsibility for the local administration.

AU this was very gratifying to Mrs. Bascom, but she longed for a wider recognition of her genius. One autumn—after an unusually successful season In the grocery business— Mrs. Bascom's poems were published. They were bound In white and bore in gold letters < the title, "Poems of the Heart, by Mrs. Alonso Bascom." Gift copies were presented to all her friends, and as these were numerous the edition was Boon exhausted. For a time Mrs. Bascom's poet soul basked in the light of the gold letters that glowed upon her from the center tables of her friends at "societies," "teas" or afternoon calls; but at last even gold letters* began to pall, and she cast about for some means of gaining a fresh tribute to her genius. "If I could only use my talent," she thought, "to brighten the lives of those who have no poetry hi their souls; if I could cast some beam of beauty over the life of some poor drudge— Ah, I have it! Jane Moore' I will write a poem about her and her family and have it printed in the News. How pleased she wfll be to find that her humble lot has been chosen by a poeteBS to be ceie- 'i Can Prove It's braced in verse!" And MJK9, Bascom'* heart glowed with the consciousness of.orirtuous genius. An afternoon's labor produced tho following: THE BEATJTT OP PIETY. In a lowly moag'grown cottage, By a rippling rivulet's shore, Dwelt a family, poor but pioua, And the family name w*t Moore.

Day by day she rubs and rinses. While he sweeps and dusts with care; Then within those pews he lingers, Thinking of his parents dear.. Mrs. Bascom was in tears as she finished. "It's the most beautiful and touching poem I ever wrote," she sobbed; "how moved Jane Moore will be! It will be an inspiration to her all her life." And she carefully gathered up her manuscript and carried It to the" News office with her own hands. Thursday the News was published, and Thursday afternoon J«b« Moore was^ttccustomed to bring home Mrs. Bascom's "week's wash." Mrs. Bascom arranged a delightful plan for observing that worthy spinster's surprise and delight when she should first read "The Beauty of Piety." As a result, when Jane knocked at the kitchen door on this eventful Thursday if was opened by one of Mrs. Basconi'i admiring, friends. {Mrs. Bascom waft I n ^ b * adjoining pantry, with the door^hairopen.W +«*.*».j 2 , "Ain't Mis' Bascom to h u m T Inquired Jane, somewhat surprised, "She'll be bars pretty soon.

She was nervously fingering a paper she held in her hand, and interrupted with: "Have you s e e s this- week's News? It has just come, and there's a poem in it by Mrs. Bascom that I think ia better than anything she ever wrote." "Huh!" ejaculated Jane. "I sh'd hope so! I'm sure that's not sayin' much!" But she sat down and, taking the proffered paper, began to read. "What's this?" she exclaimed, jumping up excitedlyr-"'name was Moore!' I'd like to know what right she's got to drag me into her po'try. 'Worked from early morn till night' Stuff an' nonsense!

Everybody 'round here knows ma died o' consumption and pa o' lung fever." The paper shook in her hands as she read the remaining lines aloud in an angry tone. "Where is Mis' Bascom?" she demanded of the frightened neighbor. "I'll have the law on her fer this! I'll learn her better than to slander respectable folks. I'll—I'll—" She stumbled on the threshold and fell back against the pantry door. Mrs. Bascom, confused and trembling at the unexpected turn events had taken, stood before her. At the sight of the poetess Jane's Indignation reaoted its climax. She fairly choked iff a vain attempt to give;adeauate exjtresstoa,; toJfeerblastings, c WltaWshaJdngV hand she flour, lshed the. obnoxious verses before the pale lace of the authoress.'

"Fer the Hake o* that poor, abused man Aloriio Bascom'I'll go home an' say nothin'.

Several men ran to obey her commands. Then the girl stood up. She looked at the bloody floor, at the white-lipped, unconscious, man at her feet, at the group that was crowding around and calling her "heroine," and then she sank back. She tried to be brave, but she couldn't help fainting dead away. The manager elbowed his way through the crowd to the girl. He delegated two of them to assist Miss Lacey to her home.

They give BOlid character and dignity to the home setting, and If rightly arranged afford a pleasing background to the home landscape picture. Their shade and seclusion are enjoyed when located not too near the dwelling. Make the back yard as clean and inviting as the front yard. Plant it with choice flowers, shrubs and climbing vines.

IFYOllVfc NEVER W W ! you've yet to team the bodily comfort ft <jiv» in the wettest wwther Spring and Summer Feeding. Feed each colony a Htle warm, thin sirup. Leave the feeders under the hives all summer, as they are not in the way, and when from any cause the bees cannot get honey from the flowers, you can easily give them a little sirup, thus often saving their brood, says a writer in Farmers' Home. Food given judiciously is of immense advantage, for without it many beekeepers would have empty instead of full supers. Food in some form may be required in the spring to help on a colony to its full strength In readiness for the honey n W ; it is none the less needful during the summer, when through a continuance of unfavorable weather loss by death is otherwise in: evitable. Lawns Useful as Well as Ornamental. The main part of the home grounds planting should consist of a wide and long grassy lawn, stretching out from the baBe of the dwelling in all directions and terminating at the extreme outer boundaries near the fence, if there b? any fence. The less obstructed the lawn is the more expansive and refreshing it will appear. A single shrub or a group of shrubs or a flower bed in the middle of the lawn defeats the very idea for which the plants are intended. Cutting up the unity of the lawn with other planting destroys its integral beauty and apparently expansive extent and makes it inconvenient as a pleasure ground for games and similar amusements. The grassy lawn in summer and at other seasons should be pleasing not only to look at, but to walk over and run over by both children and grownup people. WJ t h e s e Little Fills.

It was the late bishop of London, Dr. Qrelghton, and Lord Rosebery. Lord Boeebery complained to the bishop of want of sleep, to whtoh the bishop replied that he never suffered from insomnia. The earl observed that he wished to know the remedy. The bishop's formula was very simple. If he felt drowsy he started to write a eennon, and In a few momenta he was wide awake. On the other hand, If he wanted sleep all ho bad to do was to to read a sermon. Then sleep In a few seconds. Lord Rose replied that It waa his practice t» choose the lesser evil and he pre lerred want of sleep to reading sermons. Irregular Spellers.

In jail he weakened and promised to tell the whole story on condition that bis life was spared. Two mornings later his Jailer, visiting the cell, found Foglio on the floor, stabbed to the heart. The dagger was still In the wound, and on the body lay a scrap of paper with the words, "So perish traitors," In Italian. To this day the mystery of'that death wound has never been solved. be drive An Old Laroh Tree. Italy can boast of a larch tree the age of which is estimated to be 2,000 years. It Is situated on the northern flank of Mont Chetlp In the direction of the huts of Plan Venl, above Courmayeur, a few steps from the footpath that skirts the limits of the mendowland. Due allowance being made for the extreme slowness with which the larch grows, for the altitude above sea level (1,050 meters) at which. It is rooted and for Its northerly exposure in the near neighborhood of the glacier, where the cycle of its development Is barely five months every year, this venerable larch, untouched alike by woodman's ax and thunderbolt, cannot be less than 3,000 yenr> old.—Scotsman.

There are teachers who say such an expression is right because It sounds right, but reverse it Ned say, "The kingdom, the power and the glory Is thine," and the fault la soon perceived.

"Uncle Billy" Gray, 99 years old, a ,resident of Dearborn, decided,.Saturday that to*re ,wa* nothing, *nore to "•live for, so secured a tin dipper, one, .quart capacity, poured in a large amount of parts green, and going to the well, nearly filled it with w»ter. He then drank the mixture and calmly lay down to die. Mrs. Gray, w*ho is about 80, discovered her husband and called a doctor. , The latter applied emetics. "Uncle Billy" seemed to. rally during the afternoon, but at 10 o'clock p. m. sank suddenly and expired. Gray had lived in the village so long that even the oldest resident cannot remember when he came to the town, and he always elaimed to have arrived in Dearborn long before any of them. He was a native of England, and a pensioner of the British government, haying been injured on a warship. For years he w«s a familiar figure on the streets, until about a year ago, walking in every day from his little farm on the outskirts of the village. He owned1 a place worth, perhaps, $2,000. Lately he had come to Dearborn with a horse and wagon. On account of his age, it was impossible top him to climb into the wagon unassisted. and a short ladder was always carried in the rig.. . ^ v The aged wife says that she 'does not know what will become of her. She does not know of any living relatives, she says. Duggan's Evil Spirit. I wish I had killed him; I wouliln't Hnarco, was awakened Monday night hare gotten any more." This remark, made by James Du7- gan on MB way back to Jail after being sentenced to life imprisonment for assault on Representative W, H. Schantz at Lansing, would indicate that there was some motive which has not been disclosed for Duggan's peculiar assault, though ' Duggan on the trial insisted to the contrary, saying that he did not know why he attacked Schantz. The case was given to the jury after the dinner hour Saturday, and after fifteen minutes' deliberation the Jury came in with a verdict of guilty of assault with intent to murder. Judge Wiest immediately called Duggan to the bar and sentenced him to imprisonment for life at Marquette. Duggan asked to be sent to Jackson, but the judge told him he thought Marquette was a better place for him. John Mawrovits, the 10-year-old Pqrt Huron boy who was charged with .burning a barn In .addition, <to committing several other crimes several months ago, has. disappeared from home. \ ^x-JRep. J. H.

Mrs. William Shakespeare, of Kalabegsh (o feel 0 , complguiihjr of nndb- Mexico went to the gold basis in good season. She has long been noted for her rich silver mines. In fact, she is by far the greatest Bilver producing country in the world. Her output ol gold has also been considerable, though she ranks low in that respect as compared .with the United States and several other nations. But she may do better from nowtin. It Is announced that the rlchrfit placer gold fields ever found there have been discovered in the state of Oaxaca. The deposits are found in an area of 22,000 acres, and if the proportion of gold reported shaH hold out there will be an enormous addition to the wqrlds supply. There was a. birthday party at Pasadena, Cal., which had some rather unusnat features. Tlie affair was given in hofi0r oVayoung lady who had just reached eighteen andl ^ho was the Junior, wember of the ? family. The mother of the five children died several years ago, leaving an estate of $8,000,060 and a will providing for dtr,- triboting the fortune when the youngest should come of age. So the party was made the occasion of disposing of the Bioney, and the "favors" to the five consisted of their shares of the big estate. It is quite likely the participants in the distribution quite .en- Joyed the unique addition to ordinary "doings" at such functions. A Spiritualistic society in Illinois wants to establish a phantom detective bureau in which the aid will be sought of departed noted sleuths to clear up mysteries, of crime. . It ja to be feared, however, that the spirits called upon wilt not be responsive to the demand, even if <he law would not insist on other mediums of learning the truth than Spiritualistic ones. .Rut even theories these days are -getting the speed mania and jtish.ing o*. to,' the wildest kind <of •rapottttonst •. i £v " • • * . t « Planned Disappearance* No further investigation will, be made by the Detroit police in the caBe of Frank.

"Pardon me, but if you have no oth jections—" The girl nodded as a matter of form, and Winthrope hastened to light the cigarette already in his fingers. The smoke by no means tended to lessen the dryness of his mouth; yet it put him in a reflective mood, and in thinking over what he had read of shipwrecked parties, he remembered that a pebble held in the mouth Is supposed to ease one's thirst To be sure, there was not a sign of a pebble within miles of where they site out after some reflection, it occurred to htm that one of his steel keys might do as well. At first Miss Leslie was reluctant to try the ex- > periment, and only the increasing drybegaa, s^pmaktabjatm searea of fish.] m n o{ her moqth forced her to seek It was no dlffcult search. The marsSjrgjvnad was.atr«wn with dead sea-creatures, many of which were already"* shriveling and drying in the sun. Some of the fish had a familiar look, and Winthrope*' turned them over With the tip of,Mat shoe. He even ; wont so far as to stoop to pick up a large mullet;'but flSjrank back, re- - gaaaed by itg iuffriesi aid the unnatsngl shaped into which the sun was * wsjrping it He found himself near the beach, and stood, for half an hour or more watching the black dot far out in the water—tH that was to be seen of Blake. The American, after wading off-shore! another quarter of a mile, had reached swimming depth, and was heading out among the reefs with steady, vigorous'strokes. Half a mile or so beyond him Winthrope could now mske out the goal for which he was aiming—the oao /emalniag topmast of the steamer.'. "By Jove^^thAse wtur* are full of sharks!" nsurffrarod Winthrope, staring at the steadily receding dot until ft disappeared behind the wall of surf; isd u> ovot»o»M at Uto oator jag* the promised relief. Though it failed to quench her thirst, she was agreeably surprised to find that the little fiat bar of metal eased her craving to a marked degree. Winthrope now thought to rig a shade as Miss Leslie had done, out of reeds and his handkerchief, for the sun was scorching his unprotected head. Thus sheltered, the two crouched as comfortably as they could upon the half-dried crest of the hummock and waited impatiently for the return of Blake. CHAPTER III. The Worth of Fire. HOUGH the sea within the reefs was fast smoothing to a glassy plain in 'the dead calm, they did not see Blake on his return until he struck shallow water and stood up to wade ashore. The tide had begun to ebb before he started landward, aad thoughJw was a powerful swimmer, taiyinff noil curse it!—wire rigging Coelda't even: get a bolt." "A boltr "Not a bolt; and here we are as good as naked oh this infernal—Hey, you! what you doing with that match? Light your cigarette—light it!— Damnation!" Heedless' of Blake's warning cry, Winthrope had struck his last vesta, and-now, angry and bewildered, he stood staring while the little taper burned itself out. With an oath, Blake sprang to catch it as it dropped from between Winthrope's fingers. But he was too far away. It fell anions the damp rushes, spluttered, and flared out. For a moment Blake knelt, staring1 at the rushes as though stupefied; then he sprang up before Winthrope, his bronzed face purple with anger; "Where's your matchbox? Got any more?" he demanded. "Last one, I fancy—yes; last one, and there are still two cigarettes. But loo*"here, Blake, I can't tolerate' your talking BO deucedly—" "You idiot! you—you— Hell! and every one for cigarettes!" From a growl Blake's voice -burst into a roar of fury, and sprang upon Winthrope like a wild beast. His hands closed upon the Englishman's throat, and he began to shake him about, paying no heed to the blow's his victim showered upon his face and body, blows which soon began to lessen in force. Terror-stricken, Miss Leslie put her hands over her eyes, and began: to scream—the piercing shriek that will unnerve the strongest man. Blake paused as though transfixed, and as the half-suffocated Englishman struggled In his grasp, he flung him on the ground and turned to the screaming girl. "Stop that squawking!" he said. The girl cowed down. "So; that's better. Next time keep your mouth shut." "You—you brute!" "Good! You've got a little spuaa, e h r ."You coward—to attack a man not half your strength!" "Steady, steady, young lady! I'm warm enough yet; I've still half a mind to wring hi« fool neck." "But why should you be so Sngry? What has he done, that you—" "Wiiy-mwhy? Lord?; what J»asavt no done? This coast fairly swarms with beasts. We've not the smell of a gun; aad now this idiot—this dough-head— has gons and thrown away our only chance—fire—and on his measly cigar rettes?" Blake choked with returning rage. Winthrope, still panting for breath, began to creep away,, at the same time unclasping a small penknife. He was white with fear; but his gray eyes— which On shipboard Blake had never seen other than offensively supercilious— now gHnted in a manner that served to alter the American's mood. 'That'll do," he said. "Come here and show me that knife." T U show it you where it will do the most good," muttered Winthrope, rising hastily to repel the expected attack. "So you've got a little sand, too," said Blake, almost good-naturedly. "Say, that's not so bad. We'll call it quits on the matches. Though how you could go and throw them away—" "Deuce take it, man! How should I know? I've never before been in a wreck." "Neither have I—this kind. But I tell you, we've got to keep our think tanks going. It's a guess If we see tomorrow, and that's no 'joke. Now do , you wonder I got hot?" "Indeed, no! I've been an ass, and here's my hand to it—if you really mean it's quits." "It's Quits all right, long as you don't run out of sand," responded Blake, aad be gripped the other's soft Jiand until the Englishman winced. {'So; that's settled. I've got a hot temper, but I don't hold grudges. Now, jrHsre're your flsh?" sJl—well, they were all spoiled.".- - "Spoiled r "The sun aad shriveled them." , -> "And yoo coil that spoiled!

"And you, Miss Jenny? Girls are supposed to know about cooking." "I never cooked anything In all my life, Mr. Blake, and i t s alive— and— and I am very thirsty. Mr.'Blake!" "Lord!" commented Blake. "Give me that knife." Though the blade was so small, the American's hand, was strong. After some little haggling, the coryphene Was killed and dressed.

"That's true," assented Blake, in a oheerful tone, and he offered Winthrope two of the pieces of raw flesh. "Here's your breakfast. The trimmed piece is for Miss Leslie." "But it's raw! Really, I could not think of eating raw flsh. Could you, Miss Leslie?" Miss Leslie shuddered. "Oh.no!— and I'm so thirsty I could not eat anything." "You bet you can!" replied Blake.

The late Henry Miller, who was guide, philosopher and friend to maay booklovers within a thousand miles of New York, was a most successful salesman. One day he called on Collie P. Huntington and showed him a Tare copy of "There are two volumes of this," said Mr. Miller. The other volume is in perfect order, as you see this ons is. You cannot possibly let them escape yon,-for you know you have nothing like this in your library." "What is the price?" asked the railroad kmg. "Seven hundred dollars," said the bookman. "Those are too valuable volumes for my library," Mr. Huntington exclaimed. Mr. Miller went back to his place, and sent the books to Mr. Huntington's house with a bill for $700. Next day the railroad king sent for him. "Why did you send me those books?" he demanded, Sharply. • "Because you bought them," was the calm reply. "I certainly did not!" cried the millionaire. "Oh, yes, you did," answered Mr. Miller. "You'll remember perfectly well when I tell you what you said. You told me distinctly: Those are two valuable volumes for my library.'" —Harper's Weekly.

Andrews, Pear Sir: We noticed in the Dispatch a request for more letters from'Old Boys and Girls" who were sojourning in far off lands, so we thought possibly some would be interested in an account of our school closing which appeared iu the Ruston paper. MBS. W. A. SPBOTJT, "On Friday last, May 14, it was our happy privilege to visit the Sibley school at Choudrant. The occasion was the closing exercises of that school taught by the efficient teachers, Mrs. W. A. Sprout and daughter, Miss Ethel. This was supplemented with a geueral picnic, all the community taking part aud was the success that always attends occasions of this kind wheu the people are working in co-operation and harmony. Sibley has always been one of the best schools in our knowledge, but has a reputation of bringing off picnics excelled by no other place, and in this instance came up to the full measure of former efforts. Owing to the late hour before we could leave Ruston we failed to reach the school till 12 o'clock thereby missing most of the morning exercises. We regret this for we were informed that some of the events were grand; the May Pole dance by the little tots was said to be par excellent, and the address of Prof. this of space presents our giving a full report which we regret ., Mrs. Sprout .and Miss Ethel must be what the name implies wtjen we say teacher, the evidence was there for in the reports made of the progress of the different classes as they were called to the stage to receive cards of merit, promotion, graduation, etc, fall/ attested as rapid progress as is possible to make during a term in graded school.

He was so much at home there and so well known to all the people that to say he delivered, as always, an interesting address, will suffice. With this the morning exercises were concluded except that the writer was called on and responded with a few rambling remarks. Dinner was then announced by master of ceremonies, J. S.

The afternoon exercises consisted of an address by Mrs. Sprout, recitations and songs by the children, awarding cards of promotion, and awarding diplomas to the graduates, five in number, and an address by parish Superintendent of Public Instruction, T.

The entertainment at night was one of the best we ever attended, the main feature being a fine play "The Witch of Bender," two of the principal characters being by Mrs. Sprout and Miss Ethel, who displayed very artistic acting ability.

GIBBES MACHINERY COMPANY, COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA. C n g l n e a , tSolle>ra, S a w M i l l M s o h l n a r y , RIVERVIEW EXPOSITION'S matchless attraction is "The Creation." This stupendous scenic spectacle, animated by Biblical characters of the Garden of EUPII, is destined to attract world-wide attention. It is the product of the genius of E. W. McConnell, builder of several world's fairs, and his staff of a hundred artists. The scene is the Valley of the Euphrates, where tradition locates Eden. Awed spectators view as near to its reproduction as man may conceive. The great religious drama closely follows the Scripture. "There is first a void, thep darkness, dawn and liyht; separation of the sky, the earth and the waters; the beginning of life in the air and the waters, birds and fishes, creeping and crawling1 things, celestial anthems of unseen spirit bands; the creation o'f Adam and Eve, their temptation, transgression and expulsion by Angel Gabriel, who drives them forth with a flaming sword." A great $25,000 pipe organ intones appropriate'music. Its deep tubes produce thunder, and its flute-like notes the mimicry of forest small life. Flashes of lightning and angry storms are made by electrical and water effects. Space forbids an adequate description of this magnificent spectacle. Another great novelty is "The Races," an English panorama. Fifty horses attached to chaises raise over the highway to Coventry. £hr finrkutvi gjwpatcb. i»UBiosH*i»svaaT r a D a a r u * X O U M « 6 at Mibaeration Price $1 in Advance.

O^OattHJOIT, NO. 22-1909 William Jennings Bryan buya a farm in the Gulf Coa$t Country He has purchased 160 acres of irrigaled land near Mission, Hidalgo Go., Texas. Forty have been cleared and planted to orange, lemon, grape fruit, fig, olive, pecan, almond trees, etc., and if they "do as well as he expects" he will build a home and speqd a portion of his winters there. Mr. Bryan has long contemplated improving a place in the South, and it is not surprising that his selection should be taade in the heart of the Gulf Coast Country, whose climate is almost ideal and whose soil is so wonderfully productive. William Volz, from ten acres in the same neighborhood, shipped 5,000 eratea of Bermuda Onions from 10 acrea at an average price—after all ezpenaea paid—of $1.00 per crate; $500 an acre. Think of it! On a amall tract of land in the Gulf Coast Country you should be able to make a good living and lay away a snug turn each year. Investigate this proposition while the land is within your reach.

The word "virago," which dictionaries now define as meaning "a hold, Impudent, turbulent, woman, a terma gant," originally signified, both by der lvatlon and In use, just a manly woman, in the sense of a heroine or aruu zon. When Piautus spoke of a servant maid as a "virago," he merely meant that she was a strapping young woman, and the Romans applied the word with no intention of irreverent rudeness to Diana and Minerva. The Vul gate even has "virago" simply for woman, as the name given by Adam to bis helpmate. In Latin the word never became twisted Into the unkindly sense that has corns about in English. —London Notes and Queries.

Automobile drivers, it Appears, are afraid of trolleys. It is interesting and encouraging to know that they are afraid of anything. Perhaps in time they will be afraid or the law sufficiently to obey it. President Gomez advocates liberalising the laws of Venezuela and encouraging the free entry of foreigners, particularly those who will be likely to aid in the development of that section. Perhaps this will give Castro a chance. He may become naturalised abroad and then get Into Venezuela as a foreigner. I Contrary to expectations the prison board of control did not take up the matter of the apaintment of a warden Tuesday evening, . The special meeting was called to consider, matters reltting to the binder twine business. Not a word was spoken regarding the warden8hip until adjournment, when Mr. Nnvin laid rome letters'on the table and remarked that they would be considered when the wardenship appointment was taken up. When this will he is problematical. The next meeting of the board will be held on June 4. The so-called trust is bucking the prison twine minuXactored in this and other states. The Michigan prison plant has established a. price of $7.50 per 10u pounds for cash and $7.25 for payment after harvest in October, and the steal of which twine .is manufactured six cents a pound and upwards. The state pays the Gleaners 25 cents a hundred pounds fo> selling the twine, EO the margin of profit la, small enough. But tome twine is offered in the market at a price which enables dealers to sell it at seven cents— hence the problem. Previous to the past week orders have been coming in slowly, and It looked as though the state might have a lot of twine on hand at the end of the year, as the capacity of the plant is between two and a half and three million pounds. But recently reorders from the Gleaner arbors, who are acting as selling agents for the prison product, have come in more rapidly, and the twine Is being shipped. In the last 10 days orders amounting to 300.000 pounds have been received. The prison has about 1,000,000 pounds of sisal on hand, and this year it is buying at better prices. It paid 415-18 cents per pound for part of this and five cents for the.rest. Gov. Warner expressed the belief that the situation Is favorable for the prison twine plant. Sisal has Increased In price a cent a pound during the past week and he believed the quality of the prison twine—which he alleged is a lot better than the eut-rate twine —will sell it, In spite of everything. Gov. Warner has a plan of making some members of every school board in the state a twine agent. Nevada may come into renewedprominence as a producer of precious metals. During March two mining camps in that state turned out 12.000,- 000 worth of gold, and quite a rush of prospectors is started for that locality. The fresh discoveries of gold may also have the effect of further weaning away the Nevadsns from their excessive devotion to silver. Duflflan'a Evil Spirit. "I wish I had killed him; I wouldn't have gotten any more." Thle remark, made by James Duggan on his way back to jail after being sentenced to life imprisonment for assault on Representative W. H. Schants at Lansing, would indicate that there was some motive which has not been disclosed for Duggan's peculiar assault, though Duggan on the trial insisted to the contrary, saying that he did not know why he attacked Schantx. The case was given to the Jury after the dinner hour Saturday, and after fifteen minutes' deliberation the Jury came in with a verdict of guilty of assault with Intent to murder. Judge Wlest immediately called Duggan to the bar and sentenced him to imprisonment for life at Marquette. Duggan asked to be sent to Jackson, but the judge told him he thought Marquette was a better place for him. The most peculiar phase of the present hat situation is that the majority of women who.wear the unsightly things cordially detest them, but ple.id that there are no others, for sale, and that to wear last year's hat la to be almost aa freakish as to wear this year's. Right here is a chance for women to demonstrate their ability to take a part in the government—let them regulate the' styles instead of being regulated by them. The best that can he said about the American passion for ancestors is that it provides a living for a number of professional genealogists, and that it is, In itself, comparatively harmless. Every one 1B perhaps entitted to some little form of vanity and self-indulgence. Ancestors coat no more than poker, and the search for them unites families In a common' interest where such vanities as drinking and gambling tend to separate them. Planntd Disappearance. No further investigation will be made by the Detroit police In the case of Frank 8. Curtis, the mechanical engineer, who disappeared from the Wayne hotel April 27 last. Capt. Mc- Donnell has received a letter from New York from a man closely connected with the Curtis family, and this man says that Curtis' family Is convinced that he is alive and well, that he diappeared of his own volition, and that the the disappearance was probably planned hy Mm before he left New York on his trip west. "I was convinced right along that Curtis was alive and well," declared Capt. McDonnell. "The fact that he wrote so many letters before dropping ouL of sight aroused my suspicions, and the more we Investigated" the more convinced I became that there was something beWnd the whole matter and that Curtis h2d planned his disappearance."

Struck down in her home on the Wedding morning of her grandson by a blow which fractured her «kuil, Mrs. Christine Coryeon, aged 70, a wealthy,, Bay City widow, died a few hours later at Mercy-hospital. !• After Mrs. Coryeon was removed tor the hospital, It was decided to go on with the we&dta&uage neither .of the, principals, Roland Rich and Miss Annie. Kaiser, knew how seriously injured the aged woman waa. The wed* ding, which was largely attended, as both parties are well known and their families well-to-do, took place at St. Boniface Roman Catholic church an hour and a half after the finding of Mrs. Coryeon on the floor of her home. AfterV the ceremony, Rich, who ia 23 years old, was asked hy the poiaee and the prosecuting attorney tQasjtteod the confab' at the chiefs office. The bride- has aot y « been WW of MrsT Cory eon's death. The couple were to have left town on a wedding trip, but it is now doubtful if the police will let the brldgegroom go for a.time, at least. .The deepest mystery surrounds the aged woman's death. The grandson, found her, he says, lying on the floor of her bedroom. He declares the first he knew that anything was wrong was" while he was in the kitchen, He heard a noise aa of a falling body and rushed to his grandmother*! room, where he says he discovered the bedding was on fire. Rich says he dragged the aged woman' partly*Ib^nTOer room" a W K e W | rushed out of the house to give the"j alarm. He found Mrs. Coryeon'sJ daughter, Mrs. Harry Tierney, at the/ door and the hurried to her mother^ uaeonscloue. Rich asserts he did not know his grandmother was hurt until after Mrs. Tlerney's arrival, when the' wound in - the head was discovered. Rich gave the impression that he sup-' posed his grandmother had fallen in a faint elttfefftshoch ever .finding her bedon fire, or elwe that she ha4*eld something lighted in her BAAS* when she, fell. • " ' - • '; The police are suspicious that who* ever struck the aged woman her death,i blow started to set the bed on fire in an effort to destroy the body and hlde< the crime. Rich explains his presence at his. grandmother's house by the statement that he had been tormented by prac* Uoal; Jofcers "joshing" him about his. coming wedding, for the last few days, that he had come to Mrs. Coryeofi'e house that he might escape them. He had brought his wedding clothing with him, expecting to give his aanoyers the slip., A singular feature of the affair if that the wedding suit, which jrouag Rich sayB he brought to his grandmother's t home, is missing, with the $100 he says he had in the pocket for wedding expenses. Rich was Mrs. Coryon's favorite grandson, and she had just given him a house and lot for a wedding present. Rich says he did not see anyone in the house before the sound of Mrs. Codyeon's fall brought him to her room. The Woman in White. A Colombian Joan of Arc has appeared.

Nowthat he no Jdnger had the slow pace of the girl to consider, he aj> vanced at his natural gait, the quick, tireless stride of an American railroad surveyor. His feet, trained to swamp travel in Louisiana and . Panama, seamed to find the. firmest ground as by instinct, and whether on the halfdried mud of the hummocks or in the4 ankle-deep water of the bogs, they .felt their way without slip or stumble. Winthrope, though burdened only with the Tialf-eaten coryphener tolled along behind, greatly troubled by the mud.and the tangled reeds,!'and now and then flung down by some unlucky misstep. . His modish suit, already pouch damaged by the salt water, was BOOU, smeared afresh with a coating of greenish slime. His one consolation tumble, paid no more attention to hifn. On the other bend, he was cut by the'seeming Indifforence of Miss Leslie. Intent on his own misery, he failed to consider that tne girl might be snffertng' far greater discomfort dhd humiliation. More^ than tb,ree miles had been^coveredj befpre ^lake stopped on a,humrujock. Releaiing Miss Leslie, he stretched out on tha dry crest of the knoll and called for a slice of the fish. At bis urging the others took a few mouthfuls, although their throats were So" parched that even the moist flesh afforded scant relief. Fortunately for them all, Blake had been thoroughly trained to endure thirst. He rested less than ten minutes; then taking Miss Leslie up aga,ln like a rag doll, he swung away at a good pace. The trees were le3s than half a mile distant when he halted for the second time. He would have gone to them without a pause, though his muscles were quivering with exhaustion, bad not Miss Leslie chanced to look arc-trad and discover that Winthrope was no longer following them. For the last mile he had been lagging farther and farther behind, and now he had suddenly disappeared. At the girl's dismayed exclamation, Blake released his hold and she found herself standing in a foot or more of mud and water. The sweat was streaming down Blake's face. As* he turned around, he wiped it off wjth his .shirtsleeves. . „„,. "Do you—can it be, Mr. Blake,, that he has bad a sunstroke?" asked Miss Leslie. "Sunstroke? No; he a just laid down, that's all. I thought he had more sand—confound him!" "But the sun is so dreadfully hot, and I have his shade." "And he'3 been tumbling into every other pool. No; it's not ^he sun. I've half a mind to let him. lie—the paperlegged swell! It would no more than square our aboard-ship accounts." "8nrely, you would not do that, Mr. Blake! It may be that he has hurt himself in falling." "In this tnud?—bah! Bui I guess I'm in for the pack-mule stunt all around. Now, now; don't yowl, Miss Jenny. I'm going. But you can*t expect me to love the snob." As he splashed away on the return trail. Miss Leslie dabbed at her eyes to check the starting tears. "Oh, dear*—Oh, dear!" she moaned; "What have I done to be so treated? Such a brute. Oh, dear!—and I am so thirsty!" In her despair sho would have sunk down where she stood had not the sliminess of the water repelled her. She gated longingly at the trees, in the fore of which stood a grove of stately palms. The half-mile seemed an Insuperable distance, but the ride on Blake's back, had rested her and thirst goaded her forward.

Itortuna'tely the remaining distance' lay across a stretch of bare, dry ground,' for even Blake bad all but reached the limit of endurance. Step by step he labored on, staggering under the weight of the Englishman and gasping with a thirst which his exertions rendered even greater than that of his companions. But through the trees and brush which stretched away inland in a wall of verdure he had caught glimpses of a broad stream and the hope of fresh water called out every ounce of his reserve strength.

OVER THE FENCE Neighbor Says Something. The front yard fence is a famous council place on pleasant days. Maybe to chat with some one along the street, or for friendly gossip with next door neighbor. Sometimes it is only small talk but other times neighbor has something really good to offer. An old resident of Baird, Texas, got some mighty good advice this way once. He says: "Drinking coffee left me nearly dead with dyspepsia, kidney disease and bowel trouble, with constant pains in my stomach, back and side, and so weak I could scarcely walk. "One day I was chatting with one of my neighbors about my trouble %nd told her I believed coffee hurt me. Neighbor said she knew lots of people to whom coffee was poison and she pleaded with me to quit it and give Postum a trial. I did not take her advice right away but tried a change of climate, which did not do. me., any good. Then I dropped coffee and took up Postum. "My improvement began immediately and I got better every day I used Postum. "My bowels became regular In two weeks, all my pains were gone. Now I am well and strong and can eat anything I want to without distress. All of this is due to my having quit coffee, and to the use of Postum regularly. "My son who was troubled with indigestion thought that if Postum helped me so, it might help him. It did, too, and he is now well and strong again. "We like Postum as well as we ever liked tha coffee aad uea it altogether in say family is place of coffee and all keep well.** There's a Reasoa."

' Miss Cbrstglla did not become frightened or nervous, but rushed to the telegraph key and called up Justice of the Peace Sims of Mlnatola, giving him a description of the men and saying they had headed that way. Sims, With the assistance of three oth era, captured the three men in the woods about nightfall, but they denied any knowledge of the robbery, and no money was found on them. When Miss Corslglia identified them, however, they confessed to the robbery and told where the money could be found hidden in the woods. AH three men were then sent to jail in default of $500 bail.

J;-—Edward Calhourn, a farmer, who never imbibes, and who prides himself upon his veracity, is the authority for the statement that a headless figure walks the Creek woods, about two miles from here. For the third time he met it. As he was driving along the Bridgeboro road a form stepped out to the middle of the highway; Calhourn at first thought it was a highwayman and fired his but the "ghost" remained at the animal's head, lashed his horse for ten minutes, but the animal refused to budge, and, as Calhourn jumped from his carriage, determined to solve the mystery, the "thing" vanished. Comparing notes, Calhourn found that at least two other men had been confronted by the same object in the same vicinity while out late at night, and two agreeing with hia description of it—that it wears a long, gray cloak and is headless. Residents of the vicinity also teli of hearing strange cries, resembling the cries of a child. The singular visitation has revived the story of an eccentric old man who lived alone in a hut along the creek some 30 years ago and who waa found murdered, his head having been aevever, presumably the victim of burglars. The mystery of the crime nee*** was explained. Household Convenienses. "I have a flrehtta cooker." ''that's nothing.

Keenly he saw the wonderful force of the reality before him. His sensitive receptiveness was permeated with fire for the swing of the pose, the frenzied abandon of the forceful open curves, the brooding desperation in the face. A long free swing of the full brush— the length of the canvas—followed the action of the thing with sympathy and power. The madness of the girl was calmed by the unfeigned admiration of the man. Fascinated by the magnetism of his perforating spell-bound gase she posed OD and on. On and on he painted, forgetting girl and situation; painted as he never before had painted. The high-strung temperament that had brought only dreams and half convincing artistic things waa now lashed into action and fierce endeavor, and for the first time he strained his entire capacity and produced, all unconscious that he was really succeeding. Long and unknowing they worked together, cramped muscles and feverish weariness uncomplaining. Suddenly the pose relaxed and drooped, and the girl sank to the floor, energy and madness alike utterly spent, sapped in the long exhausting labor. Vandenbieer put away the knife, now forgotten; carried her to the couch and stretched her out in flat relaxing ease; let down in greater comfort the hair he used to love for its copper glints.and old-gold polished streaker felt how thin her wrists were, and chafed thHr coolness. .. She stirred in response and he stepped back to his work. He saw it afresh, with new, surprised eyes—and knew it to be great. The brief, comprehensive saying of the thing in terms at once decorative and ingenuous startled him with its completeness and purity. The dignity of outraged misery there •"ppealed to him now as* a sudden revealing'of a soel he had long misunderstood. A confusion of shame for his own part, of neglect and selfishness crept over him, and, with the realization of the source of his Inspiration, a gratitude to Honoria that had a warmth akin to his old love. With a sudden impulse self-approbation urged In his rising mood, he bent over the silent, motionless figure and put his arms about her. '^Honoria. wake np; Honoria, dear girl! I am made, and you have made me!" "Share, and share? aiik?". h\V hastened to *reassure her copfiWd surprise, "even to the 'Vandenbieer.'" •'Van, you really thought, dear, I meant to kill you?" she smiled. Athleticism Extraordinary.

This stupendous scenic spectacle, animated by Biblical characters of the Garden of Eden, is destined to a t t r a c t world-wide attention. It is the product of t h e genius of E. W. McDonnell, builder of several world's fairs, and his staff of a hundred artists. The scene is t h e Valley of the Euphrates, where tradition locates Eden. Awed spectators view as near to its reproduction as man m a y conceive. The Kreat religious drama closely follows the Scripture. "There is first a void, then darkness, dawn and light; separation of the sky, the earth and the w a t e r s ; the beginning of life in the air and the waters, birds and Ashes, creeping and crawling things, celestial anthems of unseen spirit bands; the creation of Adam and Kve, their temptation, transgression and expulsion by Angel Gabriel, who drives them forth with a flaming sword." A great $25,000 pipe organ intones a p - propriate music, I t s deep tubes produce thunder, and Its llute-like notes t h s mimicry of forest small life. Flashes of lightning and angry storms a r s mads by electrical and wnter effects. Space forbids an adequate description of this magnificent spectacle. Another great novelty is "The Races," an English panorama. Fifty horses a t - tached to chaises raise over t h e highway to Coventry. A great many of the schools in this vicinity close this week.

It wanted to put off more voting lor a month, but it had to meet in two weeks to take up otfcfer mattera and> decided to--make ^another effort to elect a. warden at that time... The board, and especially the new member, Judge Adams, of K&bimaaop qaanliested pronounced "Missoarffcess ' in passing upon the usual stack of mtinttffj'"blfft: ' ' " ' ' • ' Warden* Wenger has- been furnish in|^ paroled prisoners who have nc moriey with funds to buy tickets to their former homes, and asked the board if he was doiag right.

"And that was the smallest thing the stattf of .Michigan ever did," said Mr. Navin. "Suppose the poor devil is taken sick and cannot raise the few dollars that the state has invested for him?" But the matter still is in abeyance. Col. Foote ic Dead. Col. Charles p. Foote. department commander .of the Michigan Grand Army of the Republic, died suddenly Saturday at his home in Kalamazoo. Hia death was most untimely and unexpected, for only Saturday morning he bad stated that he felt much better and was hopeful lor the future, and he talked with eon George, regarding plans for the state encampment of the1 G. A. R. to be held June 22, 23 and' 24. He expected to be able to be up and possibly take at least a small part in this most important occasion. Col. Foote's fatal illness was contracted AprJl 30, whqn be, was. taken with the grip after planting a memorial tree in Bronson park. Col. Foote wan one of the beat known citizens of Kalamazoo and of ihe state. He was especially known for his devotion to thp cause of the G. A. R. and his comrades. He WaS born in Franklin, N. Y.. September G, 1840. In 1861, he enlisted as a member of Company D. Third New York cavalry. He wa.s severely wounded at Washington, N. C. in a sabre combat and was discharged August 11. 18(M. After coming to Michigan. Col. Foote wa.s ejected to the state legislature and served two terms. Charley Ward's Rise. If now look's as though ex-Representative Charles E. Ward would again conic to the front in the political field, and this time in an even larger way than was the old. This is „mado possible through the election of Congressman Lorimer as United States senator from Illinois, as Ward is now private secretary to Lcrimer. Ward, after escaping on a technicality from the investigation into the Prealey case, went to Chicago and entered the employ of Lorimer as a day laborer. From there his rise was rapid, however, and in a comparatively short time he found himself in the responsible position he now holds. Liquor Monty and Taxes. Because the saloon* have left Battle Creek the ways and means committee finds itself shy $11,000 in tax money, and SR Mayor Bailey has thrown cold water on SDproprlations in view of the city's overdraft, it looks as If a rather advanced tax rate must be fixed. The city's overdraft is over $17,000, yet each department of the municipal government asks for a larger budget than usual. Liquor men will u*e the situation as an arrument for 1911, when local option will come up again. A * s Mehmed V., the new sultan of Turkey, makes a most cordial reply to the congratulations of President Taft, in which he expresses most bappy appreciation of the courtesy and hi return avows his wish for "both your happiness and prosperity and those of the great, and .noble American people." -Thafaeems sincere and friendly. Could any one imagine*any such expression issuing from Mehmed't predecessor? Judge North gave a decision of r.n cause for action in the suit of ex- Mayor Frank W.

What is generally conceded 'to have been the most successful wheat deal in the annals of the Chicago board of trade closed Saturday, and what is symptomatic of modern speculative conditions, it closed without that squeezing of shorts which in other days was wont to furniBh a show to gallery visitors and leave La Salle street ataggering on its financial feet. James A. Patten during the brief hours of the session held May wheat in the hollow of his hand. He made the price as fixed as the laws of the Medes and Persians—$1.34 the bushel. Through his pet clerk, Ed Walker, he bought or sold at that priee, but the buying was. almost purely theoretical on his part. He did take in a few thousand bushels from some "trailer" who waited tfll the last moment for his profits, but gmainly he disposed of about half a million to ihorts who had hoped against hope to the last moment, and then, in the parlance of the pit, "took their medicine."

Blake started to ow4ei book to the ,oht» to recover whet eras' Mtt. BhUce returned aalely. Winthrope wasted hie fast match on a cigarette, for which be was scored by Blake.-Their first meal waa a dead fish. The trio started a ten mlto hike for higher land. Thirst attacked thean. B U N waa compelled to carry Mas £*eile on aceowat of weariness. CHAPTER IV.~Cantlnusd. At first hi* throat waa so dry that be could no mora than rinse his mouth. With the first swallow his swollen tongue mocked b i » wjt^i the salt, bitter taste of sea-water. The tide waa flowing! He rose, sputtering and choking xtnd gasping He • stared around, There was no question that he was on the hank of a river and would be curtain of fresh water with the ebb tide. But could he endure the agony of his thirst all those hours? He thought of his companions. "Good Ood!" he groaned, "they're goner*, anyway!" He stared dully up the river at the thousands of waterfowl which liped its banks. Within close rtew were herons and black ibises, geese, pelicans, flamingoes, and a dozen other species of birds of trhlch he did not know the names. JBut he sat as though In a stupor, and did not move eVen when one of the driftwood logs on a mudshoal a few yards up-stream opened an enormous month and displayed two rows of hooked fangs. It waa otherwise when the noontime stillness was broken by a violent splashing and loud snortlngs down-stream. He glanced about and saw six or eight monstrous heads drifting towards him with the tide. "What in— Whee! a whole herd of hippos!" he muttered. "That's what the holes mean." The Toremost hippopotamus was headed directly for him. He glared at (he huge head with sullen resentment. For a ^ his stupor he perceived at once that the beast intended to land; and he sat. in the middle of Us accustomed path. His first impulse was to spring up and yell at the creature. Then he remembered hearing that a white hunter had recently been killed by these beasts on one of the South African lakes. Instead of leaping up he Bank down almost flat and crawled back around the turn in the path. Once certain that he waa hidden from the beasts he rose to his feet and hastened back through the jungle. He was almost in view of the spot where he had left Winthrope and Miss Leslie, when he stopped and stood hesitating. "i can't do ft," he muttered;. "I cant tell her—poor girl!" He turned and pushed into the thicket. Forcing a way through the tangle of thornyi ahrubs and creepers untn, several yards from the path he began to edge towards the face of the Jungle, that he might peer out at his companions unseen by them. There was more of the thicket before him than he had tbougbX and he was still fl,ght4mj his way1 through it when lie was brought to a stand by a peculiar cry that might have been th& l)Ieat of a youngJaznh: "Ba—ba!" "Whitis that?" he .croaked. . He s\6b<5 Jiateninj* a».id in a moment, iie asain heard the cry, this. Wme more <iistirtctly: "Rlftk!— Rlak!" Thflrecould.be no mistake.

Before he could drain the last of it through, the little opening Winthrope had the husks torn from the ends of, two other nuUP and the convenient germinal spots gouged open with his penknife. Blake amp tied the third before he sgoksi ^ v e n th«% *>& voice. was hearse and strained. How'd you strike 'em?" "1 couldn't help it." explained Winthrope. "Hardly had you disappeared when I noticed the tops of the fallen palms and thought of the nuts. There was one in the grass not 20 feet from, where we lay." "Lucky for you—and for me, too, I guess," uald Blake. "Wo were all three down for the count. But this settles the first round in our fever. How do you. like the picnic, Mlae Jeany!" "Miss Lealle, If you pleaae," replied the girl, with hauteur. "Oh. say. Miss Jenny !'r protested Slake, genially. "We live in the same boarding house now. Why not be folksy T You're free to call me Tom. Pass mo another nut, Winthrope. Thanks! By the way, what's your front name? Saw It aboard ship— Cyril—~ f'Ceeil," corrected Winthrope. in a low tone. " "Cecil—Lord *Ceefl,- eh?—or is it only the ^onontble Cecil?" "My dear sir, I nave intimated before that, for reasons of-*-er—-state—" w 0b, yes; you're traveling incog,, In the secret service. Sort of detective— " "Detective!" echoed Winthrope, In a peculiar tone. Blake grinned. "Well, it is rawther a nawsty business for your honorable ludihlp. But there's nothing like calling things by their right names." "Right names—er—I don't quite take, you. I have told you distinctly my name is Cecil Winthrope!" "P-h-hJ how lovely!—See-sill!

By Jove,-that sounds like a joke/' protested the Englishman. "Don't rag me new." - "Joke!" repeated Blake. "Why, that's Scripture, Fat, Scripture! anyway, you'd think it no Joke to wake up and find yourself going down the throat of a hippo.'* "Hippo?" MDosena of them over la the river. Shouldn't wonder if they've all landed and're tracking « « ' down by this time." "But hippopotami are not camlwsr ous—they're not at all dangerous, uu less eae wounds them, out in the water." "That may be; but I'm not taking chances*. They've get mouths like spersn whales—I saw one take a yawn. Another thing, that bayou is chuck full of alligators, and a fellow down on the Read told mo they're like tin* Central American gavleis far keeuaeas to nip a swimmer." -They will not come out on this dry land." "Suppose they won't—tnere're no ether animals in Africa but sheep, eh?M "What can wo do? The captain told me that there are both lions and leopards on this oeast." "Nice place for them, too, around these trees," added Blake. "Lueky for us, they're night-birds mostly— if that Band follow didn't lie. He was a Boer, so I guess he ought to know." "To be sure. It's a nasty fla we're in for to-night. Could we not build some kind of a barricade?" "With a penknife! Guess we'll roost in a tree." "But cannot leopards climb? It seems to me that I have heard—" "How about lions?" "Tbey cannot; I'm sure of that." "Then we'll chance the leopards- Just stretch out here aad nurse that ankle of yours. I don't want to be lugging you all year. I'm going to hunt a likely bee." CHAPTER V. The Re-Ascent of Man. Blake Pushed Out from Among the Close Thickets. *ye* lighted with hope. . He - burst through the last scrqon of jungle and stared towards the palm under which he had left his companions. They were not there. J Another call from Winthrope dltected his gaxo more seaward. The two were seated beelde a fallen pal a , i t your school8 are corkers for nicknames. What'll wo make it—Sis or Sissy?" "I prefer my patronymic, Mr. Blake," replied Winthrope. "All right, then; we'll make it Pat, if that's your choice. I say, Pat, this juice is the stuff for wetness, but it makes a fellow remember his grub. Where'd you leave that fish?" "Really, I can't just say, but.it must have been where I wrenched my ankle." "You cawn't juBt say! And what are we going to eat?" "Here are the eoeoanuts." ""Bright boy! go to the head of the class! Just take some mere husk off those empty ones." Winthrope caught up one of the nuts, and with the aid of his knife stripped it of its husk. At a gesture from Blake he laid it on the bare >ground and tho American -burst it open with a blow of his toe*!-. It waa cm immature nut, and tho mea* proved "to be little thicker than clotted cream. EMake divided it into three parts, handirffc Miss Leslie the cleaneat. * ' Though his companions began with more restraint, they .finished their FUake's Sunken |,shares with equal gusto. Winthrope needed no further orders to return to his husking. .One after another the nuts were cracked and divided among the three, until even Blake could not swallow another mouthful of the luscious cmon* Toward t h e end Miss LaeJle had become drowsy. At Wlnthrope's urg- FTBRNOON was far ad vanced and Winthrope was beginning to feel anxious when' at last Blake pushed out from among the close thickets. As he approached he swung an unshapely club of green wood, pausing every few paces to test its weight and balance on a bush or knob of dirt. "By Jove!" called Winthrope; "that's not half bad! You look as if you could bowl over an ox." Blake showed that he was flattered. "Oh, I don't know," he responded; "the thing's blamed unhandy Just the same, I guess we'll be ready tuj caries to-night." "How's that?" "Show you later, Pat, me b'y. Now trot out some nuts. We'll feed before we move camp." "Miss Leslie is still sleeping." "Time, then, to roust her out. Hey, Mias Jenny, turn out! Time to chew." Miss Leslie sat up and gazed around in bewilderment. "It's all right, Miss Genevieve," reassured Winthrope. "Blake has found a safe place for the night, and he wishes us to eat before we leave here." "Save lugging the grub," added Blake. "Get busy, Pat." As Winthrope caught up a nut the girl began to arrange her disordered hair and dress with the deft and graceful movements of a woman thoroughly trained in the art of self-adornment. There waa admiration in Blake's deep eyes as he watched her dainty preening. She was not a beautiful girl—at present she could hardly be termed pretty; yet even in her draggled, muddy dress she retained all the subtle charms of culture which appeal so Wrongly to a man. Blake waa subdued. His feelings even carried him so far as an attempt at formal politeness when they had finished their meal. "Now, Miss Leslie,"' he began, "it's littlo nipre than half an hour to sundown; ao. If you please, if you're ready, svo'db^at. be starting." "I» it far?" "Not ao very. l^it w;Vve got tn chase through the jungle. Are you Sure you're quit*? ready0" "Quite, thank you. Hut. how about Mr. Winthropo's ankleT' "He'll ride as far aa the trees. I can't squeeze through with ' him, though." "I shall walk all the way," put in Winthrope. "No, you won't. Climb aboard," replied Blake, and catching up bis club he stooped for Winthrope to mount his back. As lie rose with his burden Hiss Lealle caught sight of Ida coat, wntan-stm lay iar a roll beside the p a l m ^ n l h , * « . » . , , * . . she aea^.v rsidusj. yeW aat (put it onT" '* * * • • *' ' ' : 'N*fCrtf>)aade* zsnjsf |Have to ask you fai^oet; after i t ?

Nothing more was said until they had crossed tbe-'dpen apace between the palms and the belt of jungle atoai; the river. At other times Winthrope sad Miss Leslie might have been interested in the towering screwpalms; festooned to tho top with clbBbers, and In the huge ferns which they could see beneath tho mangroves In the swasapy ground on their left Now. hoWjever, they were far too eoncensed with the questloa of hew tbey should penetrate tho dense tangle of thorny brush aad creepers whijeh rose befose them like a fseen wall. Bvea Blake b**Uated as he released Wlafthreve and looked at Ml** Leslie's qestumo. Her white skirt was* of stout duck; but the flimsy material of her wwaist was ill-suited ror rough usage. - ' v '•'-•••'• "Better put tho coat on unless you want to cohto out on the other side in full evening dress/' he said. "There's ao use kicking, but.I wish you'd happened to have on some sort of a Jacket when wo got spilled." "Ie there s o path through the thicket?" iasjatced Wiathrope. "Only the hippo trail, aad it doe t go our way. We've got to run oar own Has. Here's a stlok for your game ankle." Wiathrope took the batf-groon breach which Blake broke from the nearest tree aad turned to assist Mies Leslie with the coat. The saroeat was of snob coarse cloth that as Wiathrope drew tho cellar close about her threat Miss Leslie could not forego a tittle grimace of repugnance. The crease between Blake's s y e e deepened, and tho gfri hastened to utter aa explanatory exclamation: "Not so tight, Mr. Winthrope, please! It Scratches my neck." (TO B E C O N T I N U E D . ) T H E BABY HATES L I G H T . Is Bern Without Protection from D*xxling Brightness. Another thing which we must learn to appreciate and respect in the baby* Is his attitude toward light. This la widely different from ours. Light Is one of the most stimulating aad attractive things in the world to us; and the brighter, the better. Witness the glit< ter of the gin palace and the blase of Coney island. But to a poor, blink' ing to* of a. baby it is as dazeling and irritating as it is grateful to us. His chief objection to the new world in which he finds himself, if he could put it in words, would be: "It's so beastly light." He is born a caveman In more senses than one. While the rooms whteh be occupies should get plenty of sunshine, this should never be allowed to shine directly into his eyes or full upon his face. He has neither pigment in his tender skin nor hair on the top of his pink little head to protect him against the light rays; and it is little short of "cruelly to animals" to lay an unfortunate baby on his back in a trough-like perambulator, or baby buggy, so deep and well padded that he cannot even squirm; to load him down with clothing and wraps, or even actually strap him down so that he can lift neither hand nor foot; and then to wheel him about for hours with his little face turned up to the full glare of the light and even the direct rays of the sun.

Gamier pretty nor diatingniaoed lopkiog. Indeed, she was a vary ordinary girl of twenty, though It most be confessed a very good one. On the last night that the company performed at* Geneva Mile. Gamier was surprised at receiving a card on which was engraved the name "Gaspar. Pearson." There was also written in pencil, "I shall esteem it a favor If Mile. Gamier will permit me to Oiauk her in person for tho pleasure she has given me/* Not only was mademoiselle, bat the rest of the company, astonished. None of the principal actresses had received inch a compliment Mile. Gamier at once became an important personage in their eyes. Caspar Pearson was admitted behind the scenes. He appear* ed to be a young man of respectability. He was deferential to the lady,' to whom he had taken a fancy, and after the play his father, 'who was in the theater, sent mademoiselle an invitation to sup at the family home; The father, the mother and the sou united in praising the young actress' bearing on the stage, the well modulated tone In which she had spoken the few lines assigned her and agreed that she should have a better part,_ predicting a final trhwnph for her in her art. Pearson per* offered to give her an introduction to his brother in Paris, who, he said, had great Influ ence with the press and theatrical managers. When she left the house -for her hotel young Pearson accompanied her in the family carriage. He asiced permission to call in the morning and see her to the train. The nest morning when Casper Pearson drove op to the hotel the eyes of every member of the company were leveled at him. He brought a large bouquet of flowers, which he begged mademoiselle to accept, informing her at the same time that his father had telegraphed to fUncie Gaston," in Paris, who would meet her at the station, take her home to dinner and consult as to a plan for her advancement in her profession. When they reached Parts a gentleman advanced and asked which was Mile. Gamier, and when she was pointed out to him took her to his carriage, and they were driven to his home. During the ride he talked much about the family estate in Geneva. "And those flowers," he said. "I would know at once they came from the gardens of onr old homestead. Do you know, I laid out those gardens myself years ago." "Please accept them," said mademoiselle, <4slnce they are so precious to you." Uncle Gaston formed many plans for Mile. Garnier's pursuit of her i. Jfesslon. None of them ever seemed to come to a head, but the attention she had received bore fruit. The manager of the company advanced her rapidly, and It was not long before she had every opportunity. Her talents as an actress were mediocre, bat she found a part that she could play admirably, and this gained her great success. Soon after her experience in Geneva young Caspar Pearson went to Parte and called upon her. She was very grateful to him for having been the motive power in- starting her upward in her profession, and after a time he began to show a grent partiality for her. Uncle Gaston heard of his nephew's attentions and wrote his brother of them. The consequence was a visit to Tarls of the youngster's father and a violent scene between father and son in presence of the actress, the father threatening to disinherit the son unless he gave up his love. The son then threatened to denounce his father and his uncle for some offense he did not state, and consent was finally reluctantly given. Mile. Gamier, now Mme. Pearson, continued to act under her former name. It was not till some time after her marriage that she reaped the full benefit of the start she had received and which she considered entirely due to the admiration her husband had conceived for her at first sight But whenever she would give demonstrative evidence of her gratitude her husband would turn away with displeasure and beg her not to mention the subject again. One day she asked him: "Caspar, what did you mean by threatening to denounce your father and uncle when they opposed oar marriage r Tearson thought awhile, then said: "I have a confession to make. Do you .remember the immense bouquet I gave you the morning of your departure from Genera?" '*Yes. Tf" v.*"**.V""**•'!*•?!.*' • "It contained #k>.000 worth of-watch springs."

A •successful man, while CarltCB—well, there was nothing against -Carlton:, tout then there was to ftim cither, Arkwright Arkwright drew •* Ipng breathy Was she going to tell him that s h e l v e d Carlton ? ;: Mrs. Arkwright broke the silence. "I want to tell you that we caMot go on as we have been," she sal?. "I suppose," she went on In the sstne soft tone, "you think that you love me. No. don't speak yet. I know what you would say: you want to swear that you worship, adore me, that I am the one woman in the world to you, but I have come to feel 'that mere words do not count for much. It Is acts that tell the story. Had you really loved me you would never have told me so." i Arkwright set his teeth hard. Was she going to reproach him #er having persuaded her to marry hknr Well, he ,,deserved it, he supposed. • :\ "Why did you do it?'*tshe questioned with more passion, more anger, in her vplce than he ^faed supposed her ca- *paeaV<©**feeliDg%' "Why did you force yourself into my existence? I was nappy enough as I was, as happy as a Wftneah can be who has never loved." : Arkwright winced. "But there, I must not be unkind to you." Her voice had grown indescribably tender. "After all, you are not more to blame than i; indeed, Hot so much, and I know you are sincere in thinking that you love me. I thought I loved you too—once. But now I know that it was not you I loved. In accepting your attentions I was only yielding to the desire every woman has to be made much of, to have thought, devotion, showered upon her. What I mistook for love was. merely being glad that you, someone, anyone, cared for me. It was comparing you with him that made me realize this. Had he been in your place he would never have told me that he loved me; he would have gone away and suffered in silence." Arkwright stirred impatiently in his seat, Why could she not have spared him a little? It was bitter enough to be reproached with his own shortcomings without having to hear her lover's praises sung. Besides, would Oliver have done these things? Arkwright thought not. His wife leaned forward and laid a hand on his arm. "You don't know . , • ' • . ' ..^-w^fwwrgji1...11 how I na^e to have to say all ?hla»* she whispered. Arkwright shpok her hand rroiu his arm. "Of course, you are angry with ine, but Isn't it better for me to tell the truth? 1 do not love you; flo^e him.* The w,ay she fl^ldj the;»i*8t three words made v Arkwright d}«y with pain.

"V *._", Arkwright did not speak; iode*4'»,jtri could not. for something came info las throat and choked him. His wife went on talking. Would she never stop, he wondered. How much more was there for him to hear? "I know It is a good deal to ask, but I should like Xp feel that you forgive me for telling you these unpleasant truths and for sending you away. Jt may be hard for you to go, but, be; lieve me, you. will find it harder to stay. I am sure of this because—if you loved me as—as I love him, you could never, have borne it to be so much to me. and yet so little. I think I felt this in a vague way from the firsts That is why even whan I thought I loved you I would not tell you so." , Arkwright drew a sigh of relief. He was glad she was telling all this to him and not to Carlton. It meant much to nim to be able to believe in her again. His wife rose to her feet. "Come," she said in a voice she strove to make matter-of-fact, "we must not stay here any longer. He will be wondering where we are." Arkwright rose too, and together they moved through the darkness towards a curtained doorway. Just before it Edith paused and he felt her hand upon his arm again. "I am sorry, Oliver, I am indeed," she whispered. Oliver! Arkwright felt a sudden diziiness. Oliver! She had thought he was Oliver Carlton all this time. Why—then she must have been talk- .Ing about him—her husband. She must love him! After a moment, when his mad exultation had given way to a great peace, Arkwright took his wife's hand, and, lifting the curtain, drew hex into the lighted room beyond. Souths sawdust Is Utilized. They are making roads of sawduBt mixed with earth on a new plan in Leon county. 'Two ridges'of earth are thrown up with a road machine at the required" widfh from' each othef and the1 space between la filled with a six- Inch bed of sawdust. This is followed with a smaller machine which ploSvs up arirt mixes' the earth vtith the'sawdust. This makes a roadbed on which the tires of the heaviest loaded vehicles make no Impression. The contractor, G. H. Averitt, has kept an accurate account of expenses in connec tion with this section' of sawdust and earth road and bays-thaiCOSj, aggregates $297 a mile, showing it to be about th& cheapest road material in use. Ifsfrtry be-miggeete* that sawdust is apt a durable material, but the True'^teniocrat meets this objection with the statement that one or two such roads were constructed in a south Georgia county 20 years ago and are still" in good condition, Bhowlng its durability.

Indeed. much sickness comes from wrong food and just so.surely as that is the case ; right food will make the sun shine once more. . . An old veteran of Newburyport, ; Mass., says:, "In October, I was taken sick and went to bedt losing 47 pounds ; in about 60 days. I had doctor after ! i doctor, food hurt me and I had to live I almost entirely on magnesia and soda, i j All solid food distressed me so that ] water would run out of my mouth in little streams. "I had.terrible night sweate, and my doctor finally said ^J^ad consumption and must die. My good wife gave up all hope. We were at Old Orchard. \ Me., at that time and my wife saw ! Grape-Nuts in a grocery there. She ' bought some and persuaded me to try i t j "I had no faith in It, but took' it to ! please her. To my surprise it did not { distress me as all other food had done j and before I had taken the fifth pack- ; age I was well on the mend. The pains I left my head, my mind became clearer and I gained weight rapidly. } "I went back to my work again qpd ! now after six weeks' use of the food T am better and Rtronger than ever be- i fore in my life. Grape-Nuts surely saved my life and made me a strong ' hearty man. 15 pounds heavier than ; before I was taken ill.

T W y at* P t t l M , trve, • • « tan of k«maa Sensible Fashion That Has B e e n W e l - comed as a Relief from Burdens- Long Borne. The popular tendency to fasten all women's garments in front has caused a general atmosphere of comfort that is hard to overestimate. Blouses began to fasten in front, last winter apd sensible women at onre took advantage of the fashion. Petticoats of all kinds were made to hook or clamp down the left front so there might not be placket or plaits at back. Linen and pongee outer skirts all fasten down the left middle front with large buttons and combination underwear, which is taking the place of all others to-day, buttons down the front. With this convenient fastening of nil garments it is only natural that women should go in strongly for the corset that laces in front. It not only giveR excellent shape to the back and permitB the frock to fit without wrinkle, but it allows a woman to get into it with ease and freedom. It has always been a tiresome feat to hold the arms back of the body lu order to lace the corsets with nicety; no fatigue is caused by the modern method. It is a matter of congratulation that women have adopted all the sen sible garments that fasten ifi front. It lifts much of the burden of dressing.

Homer C. Haskerville, a young American who was killed whijja loading & softie, of the revolutionists, evidently was a gallant and impulsive youth, but he was an American citizen and a missionary in tWe "service of his church. Leading revolutions was tjuite apart from hte pofltt c'al and religious duties. The flisavowal of,hisn acts by the government ot the United States an4,i>y the chirrcb board he served prevented t h e matter from becoming an international question; but ittis pitiful that a young man with so many commendable qualities should fall <a victim to grave error of judgment and that thus there should be brought to an untimely end a life full of promise of high usefulness. T DAMAGE CANAL EVER HAD THE CANADIAN LOCKS AT THE SAULT ARC 86WIOU3LY DAMAGED. THE WJ?ECK IS A BAD ONE It seems that as long as the English suffragettes conduct their meetings in a quiet, peaceful, dignified and ladylike manner the papers refuse t o notice them. So to have themselves reported by the public press it is necessary for them to raid ministers' houses, attack parliament, chain themselves to posts of advantage, fight policemen and in other ways lead the strenuous life. This is quite a severe indictment by implication of the chiv aw-y of the British j*re«58, and gives the women Justification in saying: "It ir all the men's fault." aers Peace by disarmament receives a notable Impetus from "the order of the war department discontinuing the sale at auction of obsolete firearms discarded by the United States army. If our friendB in Central America a r e too poor to buy new guns when the notion seizes them to set up a revolution and overthrow a government, they must perforce keep quiet and let the existing government alone if they can no longer buy cheap, but good, old guns from us. Thus does war become more and more a luxury reserved for the wealthy. The latest fad in t h e development of luxury on transatlantic, steamers is the report that one of the stewards on a Certain liner has charge of a garden patch from which strawberries, lettuce, radishes, etc., a r e picked on order. The crops of this garden bring high prices, t h e strawberries going at two dollars for n small box. But it is not likely that there will be a general adoption of gardening on shipboard because of the excellence of refrigerator accommodations on the average liner. The Indiana woman who has been married ten times is held to have had but nine husbands, because she married one of them the second time, a divorce and one or two other husbands paving Intervened. But if the argument of those who hold that we have had 27 presidents instead of 26. because Cleveland was elected and Is counted twice, is sound, then she miis: on the some line of reasoniriR have had ten husbands. From all sides come reports nf increased business, notably as regards the railroads and indupfrial concerns. The May dividends a r e well « p to the average and in several case* a r e beyond the most sanguine expectations.

The Canadian locks at Sault Ste. Marie were wrecked Wednesday afternt. m, The steamers Asslnibbfa, of the t\ P. R. line, and a freighter of the Gilchrist line were locking up when suddenly and without warning one of ihe leaves of the upper gate gave way and the water from the higher level rushed In, sweeping both boatti und the lower gates before it. Both vessels were injured and t h e Assinibola went to the bottom a few- Hundred feet below the lower entrance and directly In the channel. The flood from the upper level poured through the canal at a terrific pace. Efforts to lower the movable dam above t h e upper gates were promptly made. The steel trust steamer Empire City was htt by the Assinibola a* she was swept out of the lock and has, a big hole In her bow. She reached the American side and Is tied up at t h e government pier, where she is slowly sinking. Later the steamer Walker was sunk at the lower entrance to the canal. The Assiniboia was finally moved from the channel and tied up to the government pier on the American; side. The accident was due to the steamer hitting the lower gate as she entered, the lock above. T h e gate was carried away and the wate^.poufc.d through it as a terrific rate, sweeping all before it. The Empire City and Assiniboia w e - in the lock chamber. The Gilchr liner Perry • G." Walker wa* 'tied above. T h e latter broke her line J was swept through the canal. 1* the worst wreck in the history of canal. The forces at work on Saturday was reporied, forced in the la*t \vi et of the movable dam. which, il stands the strain, will check the ru ing water. With the shutting off the current work will be rushed installing new gates to replace th< which were wrecked. Promising Crops.

Mv-Clur* tit L'e.j SYNOPSIS. Tli** story opens with the shipwreck of (lie s t e a m e r un which Mian Genevieve Jjt-slie, a n American heiress, i*ord W i n - tin ope, a n Englishman, and T o m Blake, a brusque American, were passengers. The. three were tossed upon a n uninhabited island and were t h e only ones not <lrown«d. Blake recovered front a drunken Ltupur. Blake, shunned on the boat, he-cause of his roughness, became a hero a3 preserver of the helpless pan-. The E n g l i s h m a n w a s suing for t h e hand of Miss Leslie. Blake started to s w i m back to th*s ship to recover w h a t w a s left. Blake returned safely. Winthrope waated his last match on a cigarette, for which h e w a s scored by Blake. Their first meal w a s a dead fish. T h e trio started a ten mils hike for higher land. T h i r s t attacked them. Blake w a s compel lad to carry Miss Leslie on account of weariness. He taunted Winthrope. T h e y entered t h e Jungle. CHAPTER V.—Continued. "You'd find those thorns a whole lot worse," muttered Blake. "To be sure; and Miss Lestfe fully appreciates your kindness," interposed Winthrope. "I do Indeed. Mr. Blake! I'm aure I never could go through here without your coat." "That's all right. Got the handkerchief?" '1 put it in one of the pockets." "It'll do to tie up your hair.*' Miss Leslie took the suggestion, knotting t h e big square of linen over her fluffy brown hair. Blake waited only for her, to draw out the, kerchief before h e began to force a way through the jungle. Now and then he beat at ihe tuugled vegetation with his elub. Though he held to the line by which he had left the thicket, yet all his effortB failed to open an easy passage for the others. Many of. the tHrSrhy^rahches sprang hack into place behind him. and as Miss Leslie, who was the first to follow, sought to thrust them aside the (home pierced her delicate skin until her hands were covered with blood. Nor did Winthrope, stumbling and hobbling behind her, fare any better. T w i c e ' h e tripped headlong Into the brush, scratching his arms and face, Blake took his own punishment as a matter of course, though bis tougher and thicker skin made his injuries less painful. He advanced, steadily along the line of bent and broken twigs that marked his outward passage, until the thicket opened on a strip of grassy ground beneath a wild fig-tree. "By Jove!" exclaimed Winthrope, "a hanyan!" "BanyHn? Well, if that's British for a daisy, you've hit It," responded Blake. "Just take a squint up here. How's that f o r ' a roost?" Winthrope and Miss Leslie stared up dubiously at the edge of a bed of reeds gathered in the hollow of one of the huge flattened branches at Its junction with the main trunk of the banyan, 20 feet above therri. "Will not the mosquitoes pester us here among the trees?" objected Wrathrope. "Storrn must, have blown 'em away. T haven't seen any yet." ''There .will be million's after sunset." v "Maybe; but I bet. they keep below our ro(/st." "Bpt how are we to g e t up so high?" inquired Miss Leslie. "I can s w a h n t h i 3 drop root, and I've a creeper ready for you two," explained Blake. Baking action to words, he climbed Igp t h e small trunk, of the a i r root and Wmitg over into the hollow where he j h i piled the reeds. Across the W s d limb dangled:* rope-like creeper, one end of which he had fastened to a k branch higher tip. He flung down the free end to Wfnthropw. "Look lively, Pat," he called. "The sun's most gone, and twilight, don't last all night in these parts. Get .fhe line around Miss Leslie, and do what yon can on a boost." "T see; but. you know, t h e vine in too stiff to tie." Blake -stifled1 an oath sml .terked the ond of the creeper up Into his hand. When h e threw It down again it was looped around and Castened tti a bowline knot. •» j >. "Now, Miss Leafte, get aboard and w«ll have you u p ia^a Jiffy;" be said.

As Miss Leslie seated herself In the loop he reached down and began to haul up on the creeper, hand over hand. Though frightened, by/jlje novel manner of ascent the girl clung tightly to the line above her head, and Blake bad no dlfllculty in raising; her until she swung directly beneath him. Here, however, He found himself in » quandary. The girl seemed a s helpless as a child, and be was lying fiat. How could he l«ft her above the level of t h e branch? "Take hold the other line," he said. The girl hesitated. "Do you hear? Grab it quick, and pull up hard if you don't want a t u m b l e ! " The girl seized t h e part of' the creeper which was fastened above and drew herself up with convulsive energy. Instantly Blake rose to his knees, and grasping the taut creeper with one hand reached down with the other to swing th<* girl up beside him on t h e branch. "AH' right, Miss Jenny," he reassured h e r a s he felt h e r tremble. "Sorry to scare you, but 1 couldn't have made it without. Now, if you'll just hold down my legs we'll soon hoist bis ludshlp." He bad seated her in t h e broadest part of t h e shallow hollow, where t h e branch joined t h e main trunk of t h e fig. Heaped with the reeds which h e had gathered during t h e afternoon it made such a cozy shelter that she at once forgot h e r dizziness and fright. Nestling among t h e reeds, she leaned over and pressed down on his ankles with a i r her strength. The loose end of t h e creeper had fallen to the ground when Blake lifted ner upon the branch and Winthrope was already slipping into the loop. Blake ordered hlra to take It off and send up t h e club. As the creeper was again flung down a black shadow swept over t h e jungle. "Hello! Sunset!" called Blake "Look sharp, t h e r e ! " "All ready," responded Winthrope. Blake drew in a full breath, and De gan to hoist. T h e position was an awkward one, and Winthrope weighed 30 or 40 pounds more than Miss Les- Y ^ ' r * "It's Only a Beast That's Killed Some thing Down Below." lie. But as t h e Englishman came within reach of the descending loop he grasped it and did what he could to ease Blake's efforts. A few mo ments found htm as high above the ground a a ' Blake could raise him. Without waiting for orders, he swung 'himself upon the upper part of the ereerfer add climbed t h e last few feet unaided. Blake grunted with satisfaction as he pulled him in upon the branch. "You may do, after all," he said. "At any rate, we're all aboard for the night; and none too soon. Hear t h a t ? " " W h a t ? " "Lion, I guess— Not that yelping. Listen!". The brief twilight was already fading into t h e darkness of a moonless night, and as the three crouched together In j their shallow nest they were soon made audibly aware of the savage nature of their surroundings. With t h e gathering night, the jungle wakened Into full life. From all sides came }Jie harsh squawking of birds, the weird cries of monkeys and other small creatures, the crash of heavy animals mavins through the jungle-, and above all the yelp and howl and roar of boasts of orey. After some contention with Winthrope, Blake conceded that the roars Of his Hon might ' b e nothing worse than the snorting of the hippopotami as they came out to hrowse for tho night, In this, however, there, was small comfort, since Winthrope presently reasserted his belief in the ,clinching ability of leopards, and expressed his opinion that, whether o r 1 not t h e r e were, .Jjpas in t h e neighbor*; hood, certain of the-barking roars they could hear came from the throats of the spotted climbers. Even Blake's hair; bristled a s his imagination pictured one of the great cats Creeping upon them in the darkness front the far end of th,elr nest lhrib, or reaping UQWO out of t h e upper branches. Tue nerves of all three were at their highest tension when a dark form swjjpt jjast through the air within a yard of their, faces. Miss Leslie uttered * stifled scream and Blake brandished bja club. But Winthrope, who had caught a glimpse of t h e creature's shape, broke into a nervous laugh. "It's only a fruit bat," h e explained. "They feed on the banyan figs, you know." In t h e reaction from this false alarm, both men relaxed and began to yield to the effects of the tramp across the mud-flats, Arranging the reeds a s boat they could they stretched out on either side of Miss Leslie and fell asleep in the middle of an argument on how t h e prospective leopard was mostly likely to attack. Miss Leslie remained awake for two or three hours longer. Naturally she was more nervous than h e r companions, and she had been refreshed by her afternoon's nap. H e r nervousness w a s not entirely due to t h e wild beasts. Though Blake had taken pains to secure himself and his companions in loops of the creeper, fastened to the branch above, Winthrope moved about so restlessly In his sleep that the girl feared he would roll from (the hollow. At last her limbs became so cramped that she was compelled io change h e r position. S h e leaned back upon her «lbow, determined to rise again and maintain h e r watch the moment she was rested. But sleep w a s close upon her. T h e r e was a lull in the louder noises of t h e jungle. H e r eyes closed, and h e r head sank lower. In a little time it was1 lying upon Winthrope's shoulder and she was fast asleep. As Blake had asserted, t h e mosqaitoes had either been blown away by the cyclone or did not fly to such a height. None came to trouble t h e exhausted sleepers. CHAPTER V I . Man and Gentleman. 1GHT had almost passed, and all three, soothed by the refreshing coolness which preceded tbe dawn, were sleeping their s o u n d e s t when a sudden fierce roar followed instantly by a piercing squeal c a u s e d e v e n Blake to start up in panic. Miss Leslie, too terrified to scream, olung to Winthrope, who crouched on his haunches, little less overcome. Blake was the first to recover and puzzle out the meaning of the crashing in t h e jungle and rhe ferocious growls directly beneath them. "Lie still," he whispered. "We're all right. It's only a beast that killed something down below u s . " All sat listening, and a s the noise of the animals in the thicket died away they could hear the beast beneath them tear at the body of Its victim. "The air feels Hke dawn," whispered Winthrope. "We'll sooaJbe able to see the brute." "And h e us," rejoined Blake. In this both were mistaken. During the brief false dawn they were puzzled hy the odd appearance of the ground. T h e sudden flood of full daylight found them staring down into a dense white fog. "So they have that h e r e ! " muttered Blake—"fever-fog!" "Beastly shame!" echoed Winthrope. "I'm sure the creature h a s gone off." This assertion was m e t by an outburst of snarls and yells that made all start back and crouch down again in their sheltering hollow. As before Blake was the first to recover. "Bet. you're right," he said. "The big one has gone off, and a pack of these African coyotes a r e having a scrap over-the bones." "You mean jackals. It. sounds like the nasty beasts." u "If ir wasn't for that fog I'd s o down and get our share of the game." "Would it. not be very dangerous, Mr. Blake?" asked Miss Leslie: "What a fearful noise!" "I've chased coyotes off a calC with a rope; but that's not the proposition. You don't find me, fooling around In that sewer gas o f , a fog. We'll roovst right where we a r e till the sun does for it. We've got enough malaria in us already." "Will it he Ions;. Rlake"" asked Winthrope. "Huh? Getting hungry this quick'? Wait, till you've tram pod around a we^k, with nothing to pat hut your shoes." 'Surely, Mr. Blake, it will uot be so bad!" protested Miss Leslie. Sorry, Miss J e n n y ; but eocoanut palnwj don't biaw o v e r every day, and when those nuts a r e gone what a r e we «oing to do for tbe next meal?" "Could we not make bows?" suggested Winthrope. "There sf**M<* to be no end of game about." "Bdwa—and t r r o w s without points! Neither of u s could hit a b a r s door, anyway." <»*" " L • We coufH pr**fce7' ; "Sure—s^t #UW ''training, on a!r puddinx. 1 c a n do better with a nandfi$. otWtu0tes.'*lf --5 " 'n^aeri we'shexild go a r once-to the cliffs,"-' said fclfaS LesHe. "Now you're talking—and it's Pike Peak or bust for ours. Here's oft« night to the good; but we won't last many more if WQ don't &et Are. It's flints we're after now." "Gould we not make fire by rubbing sticks?" said Winthrope, recalling'bis suggestion of the previous morning. "I've heard t h a t natives have n o trouble—y'y ' "So've i, and what's more, I've seen 'em do it. Never could make a go of It. myself, though." "But iT you remember how it is done wt* have at least some chance—" "Give you tea to one odds! No; we'll scratch around for a fliut good and plenty before we waste time that way." "The mist is going," observed Miss ljeslle. "That's no lie. Now for our coyotes. Where's my club?" "They've all left," said Winthrope, peering down. "I can see t h e ground clearly, and there is uot a sign of t h e beasts." "There a r e the bones— what's left of them," added Blake. "It's a small deer, I suppose. Well, here goes." He threw down his club and dropped the loose end of the creeper after it. As t h e line straightened he twisted t h e upper part around his leg and was about to slide t o the gTound when h e remembered Miss Leslie. "Think you c a n make it alone?" h e asked. The girl held up her hands, sore and swollen from t h e lacerations ot t h e thorns. Blake looked a t them, frowned, and turned to Winthrope. "Um! you got it, too, and in t h e face," h e grunted. "How's your ankle?" Winthrope wriggled his foot about and felt t h e injured ankle. "I fancy it is much better," h e answered. "There seems to be no swelling, and there i s no pain now." "That's lucky; though it will tune up later. Take a slide, now. We've got to hustle our breakfast and find a way to get over the river." (TO B E CONTINUF1D.) ARM IS LONGER T H A N T H E LEG.

There are m e n whose a r m s when they walk are like a couple of excited pendulums, trying to emulate the stride of the leg, the right arm swinging in unison with the movement of the left leg, and the left arm keeping time with the right leg. The military man is taught not to swing his arms; the civilian swings expansively, often covering a bigger radius than that covered by his legs. When a man swings his arms excessively he appears to be paddling along. Wrhen a man doesn't swing his arms at till he seems to be advancing automatically. He is altogether uncanny. The Gorilla de Luxo has arms seven inches longer than his legs. Can any reader tell instantly, without using a tstjie measure, which is the longer, his a n a or his leg"? Not one! The universal reply wtft be—the leg. All wrong. The arm of a well-formed person, man or woman, measured from fhe pit. should be three-quarters of an inch longer than the leg, measured from the crotch. The runner usually carries his arm bent at the elbow. Why? The best runners are pigeon-toed. Why? Most athletes turn in their toes. Why?

"Wb'afa the matter, J o h n ? " sonw one inquired. "Oh, me sick—me stek as dev," replied t h e man, rolling his head still more distressingly a n d continuing t h e rubbing of his Btomach. "Sick?

Her clothes are comely rather than costly, and s h e makes plain cloth to be velvet by her handsome wearing of it. She is none of our dainty dames, who love to appear in variety of suits every day new—as if a good gown, like a stratagem in war, were to be used but once; but our good wife sets up a sail according to the keel of her husband's estate; and if of high parentage, she does not so remember what she was by birth, that, she for gets what, s h e is by match.—Thomas Fuller.

Y.'iien prominent men realize the injurious effects of coffee and the change in health that Postum can bring,,the7 are glad to lend their testimony t o r the benefit of others. A superintendent of public schools in one of the southern states says'! "My mother, since her early childhood, was on inveterate coffee drinker, had been troubled with h e r heart for a number of years and complained of that "weak all over' feeling and sick stomach. "Some time ago I was making a n official visit to a distant part of.the country and took dinner with one of t h e merchants of the place. I noticed a somewhat peculiar flavour of the coffee, a n d asked Eim concerning it. H e replied that it w a s Postum. T was so pleased with- it, that after the meal was over, I bought a package to carry home with me, and had wife prepare some for t h e next meal. T h e wholf family were so well pleased with it, that we discontinued coffee and used Postum entirely. "I had really been a t times very anxious concerning my mother's condition, but we noticed t h a t after using Postum for a short time, she felt s o much better than she did prior to t u use, and h a d little trouble with h e r heart and no sick stomach; that t h e headaches were n o t so frequent, a n d her general condition much isaproved. This continued until s h e w a s as well and hearty as t h e rest of us. "I know Postum h a s benefited myself and the, other members of t h e family, but n o t in so marked a degree as in the case of my mother, a s she w a s a victim of long standing."

Grievances of present d a y Jurymen are mild compared w i t h those Inflicted on them in the past. Until the passing of a n act of parliament in 1870 British Jurymen were prohibited from having meat, drink or tire (candlelight only excepted l while considering their verdict. In some ancient courts they were even subjected to physical violence. They were told to "lay their heads together" us au indispensable preliminary to finding a verdict. No sooner did the jury dive beneath the level of their boxes than an usher, armed with a willow wand, took up a position near them. If any juryman presumed to come to the surface before t h e verdict w a s arrived at, down came t h e wand on t h e head of t h e offender. tvitiscrlbe lor t h e pluckner L>:»patch 60 YEARS' EXPERIENCE Electric Bitters Succeed when everything else fails.

S h e usually w e n t o u t about 0 o'clock in t h e xnoruing a n d remained moat of t h e day, but there wan nothing regular either about her going or her staying. Sometimes ahe would remain tu t h e house for several d a y s at a time, and sometimes when s h e went out i n the morning would return before noon a n d not g o out again. There w a s a good deal about Miss Tully that Interested me. S h e w a s never for a long period in t h e s a m e mood. One day s h e would be merry a s a cricket, the next in t h e depths of despair. Then s h e would be subject to iits of anger, w h e n no one rared to approach her. A n y sensible person may judge from this that Miss Tully w a s not likely to make a good wife, but I have noticed In young m e n a disposition to neglect t h e girls w h o are especially fitted to make homes comfortable for those w h o are s o constituted a s to make a husband's life a burden. A t a n y rate, I became fascinated with Miss Tully's moods. At our first meeting there w a s a girlish gladness about her that w a s simply delicious. A f e w d a y s later s h e m e t me with an imperious look on her face that well nigh froze the marrow i n my bones. T h e jiext week my pity w a s excited by a melancholy that w a s no less becoming than her sprightllness or her regal dignity. It w a s not long before I w a s madly in love. But, realizing the folly of making a life partner of a girl w h o w a s not only changeable BB t h e wind, but w h o m I k n e w nothing about—indeed, whose mode of support w a s a mystery—I fought against my passion. All to no purpose. I w a s caught in a mesh and unable to extricate myself. One evening Miss Tully and I were sitting in the drawing room—the boarders, seeing my infatuation, had by this time come to give up the apartment to us—side by side on a sofa. It w a s in the spring of the year, and Misa Tully was like the season, light hearted, ex uberant in spirits and, it seemed to me, willing to listen to love's young dream. Little by little I turned my words upon that dream, which by this time had en thralled me. Miss Tully t a w my drift and seemed to yield to a pleased languor, listening eagerly to what I said. I poured into her ear all a lover could say, leading up to a proposal, when she stopped me and said ecstatically: "Say it all again." I confess I w a s puzzled—Indeed, a trifle put out. T o repeat my glowing words w a s not t o my mind. Fortunately my embarrassment w a s relieved by a maid entering with a note for Mis* Tully. She opened and read it. From that moment s h e w a s changed. H e r light hearteduess disappeared and with it h«r apparent interest in what I had been saying t o her. Smarting under this sudden indifference. I left her. The next evening at dinner I noticed that Miss Tully appeared to have something on her mind of an exasperating nature. Her teeth were set, and her eyes were tilled with flashes, coming at long intervals, like heat lightning on a summer night. After dinner I w a s going up to my room when she passed me in the hall, g a v e me a glance I did not understand and went into the drawing room. I followed. We were alone there, and. turning on me like a fury. she began to accuse me of some unexpressed crime, working herself into a very demon. In vain I begged her te tell me what I had done. Without heeding me s h e talked on, or, rather, stormed on, till at last, seeing no prospect of an end to what w a s like a storm swaying to the east, to the west, anywhere, everywhere in accordance with its unbridled passion, I left the room. The next morning 1 made an effort to escape from this mad creature. 1 took an early train. For n week I remained away, then, professing to myself to feel confident of my ability to resist the fascination, returned to the house and Miss Tully. At our first meeting I s a w upon her face the most engaging sadness. She gave me a reproachful look, which 1 took to express pain that. 1 had kept a w a y from her. I longed to take her in ray arms; hut. with a muffled moan, she went up t o her room. I s a w nothing of her for a week. Then s h e w a s plain Miss Tully, neither happy nor miserable nor angry. S h e gave me a smile, put out her hand to m e and, intimating that she had something to say to me. led the w a y into the drawing room. "I o w e yon an explanation." she said, "and I am going to reveal to you that which no one else in this house k n o w s I am an artists' model. 1 never pose. however, except in proper clothing and only for artists w h o wish to > ateh an They have lou;:>l :;;e \ ery \ersaitle ia this respect, and 1 have lweu successful. T h e secter of my success is that I can at any time work myself into | DeWitt's Liti'e Early , Bistre, t b t any required mood, and this gives t h e > , , h l M s m*\\ g e n t l e attlat t h e w r e a a t o n which comes from j **«»™* l l U 1 « l " r p A r n " t 9 tbe modal really teeUac what la e x - J and turn, bold by all druggist*. pressed.

The comforts that he talked of were due, to. lily's Ingenuity, thrift and selfaacrittce, and not to his liberality, as he so fondly imagined.

They quickly dropped them from sight and began to talk with embarrassed haste, all except mother.; she was as serene as a day in June. Mary brought on the soup. Whipple passed the crackers, and discovered that the cracker jar concealed a large patch op the tablecloth.

The corners of mother's tuotith twitched, and Sterling remarked politely that "he supposed not." Mary came in bearing a platter upon which .> rolled. Uke so uiauy marbles, six hard balls of chopped meat, the aoup, iu«at in disguhio. "What's this we have?" iuquired Whipple blankly- "Meat balls,"replied uiotbwr in her sweetest and suavest tones. Sterling pinched himself under the table to keep back the fiendish desire he bad to yell when Whipple, after pursuing one of the little hard balls urouud and around the platter with a spoon, finally captured it on the side and tried to mash it. It flew from under the spoon like quicksilver, and another exciting chase ensued before he finally got it ou Sterling's plate. In the covered dishes were boiled turnips, onions and potatoes. The conversation during the meal v.as forced, except by mother. It was hard to be ^ay on turnips, but mother bubbled over with good humor, and Whipple's silent prayer was that the meat ball would choke her to death. Every time Sterling thought of the "comforts of home" he had a fit of coughing that made his chair sway to and fro till the chills crept dp and down his spine. "Pass the coffee, Mary," said Lily, with a sigh of relief that the end was in sight. A hectfc flush had risen on Whipple's cheek bones. As he raised the after-dinner cup to his lips, looking fearfully about, aB if wondering if there was anything more that could happen, the cup dropped off the handle. Lily gave a cry and Whipple executed a war-dance as the scalding coffee burned him, Sterling started violently aa he heard the crash. His chair collapsed and he fell in a heap, striking his head against the sideboard with a force that made him see stars. i Mother rushed around to see If he had "hurt his spine," while Lily wiped coffee from the wrathful Whipple's waistcoat. "Why, that must have been ,the cup that I noticed had the handle glued on," said mother innocently, and Whipple glared at her with dark suspicion. That night, while Sterling was wending his way to hia hotel, pondering upon the ' whichness-of the whatness" of some people, and of Whipple in particular, that person was searching his pockets tor greenbacks, which he turned over to Lily with an, air of righteous indignation and . the emphatic remark that if she didn't open an account with the butcher and baker and buy some new table-linen, dishes, and chairs, and whatever she needed, they'd shut up the, whole "shootingmatch" and board. Lily, who was a wise woman, said nothing, but slipped upstairs later and hr.gged her mother. ON THE SIDE Squared Accounts.

One day a row started while the judge was holding court. His honor rather snappishly ordered Col. Jones to put a stop to the commotion.

A Roman nose.in a home, HUe taw corresponding aquiline shaptj lu a wan, generally indicates etrong individuality, often ttccpuiinuiled with great intelligence. A straight facial line is quite as often found with a high degree of Intelligence, but a dish-faced borae is rarely anything but a nonetity in character or a fool. I have seen a few exception* to this rule, but they only prove It. ' A fine ruuzisle usually denotes a high nervous organization, while a coarse and large muzzle, with small imd nonexpansive nostrils and pendulous lower lip, means stupidity. A sensitive and trumpet-shaped UOHtril means courage and intelligence, even when, as it does sometimes, it also means heaves. A broad iuid full forehead and length from eye to ear are good general indications of Intelligence, but the eye and ear are the speaking features of a horse's face. The ear is more Intelligible even than the eye, and a person accustomed to the house can tell all thut he thinks or m^ans. When a horse lays his ears flat back on his neck, he most assuredly is meditating mischief, and the bystander should beware of bis heels or teeth. In play the ears will be laid back, but not so decidedly nor so long. A quick change in their position/ and more particularly the expression of the eye- at the time, will distinguish between playfujoess and vice/ All experts agree that the ear of the horse is one of the most beautiful parts al>ourt him, and by this Is the temper more surely indicated than by its ml'ticn.

It fs a matter- of fact that wrier we snip live stock to market they sell together by weight, and as a matter of course the adimal or carcass that weighs the greatest number of pounds will command the most money, aurl I {hirtk the habit of breeding more for quality than for size lies in the fault of the judpes in making 1 heir decisions iu Ihe show rings; as I think they award more prises to the little, fthespun animals, especially swine, ihan they do'the larger type, declares Mr. Hart, in Kimball's Dairyman. If they would reverse Their' decisions It wtmld let us all know where we ave. and we wouold breed more for size than for quality. When we make discrimination in favor of quality against size In selecting our breeding stock, we also discrimina. e against prolificacy, as my experience has been tho finer the quality the less prolific, and the weaker the constitution of the animal. Also a great deal of this defect is brought about by too close in-breeding; so therefore, I contend that if we would select our breeding stock of both sexes of larger type with good, strong, heavy bone, wilh sufficient frame to build on and capable of carrying flesh, our hogs would he of stronger constitution and more prolific. 1 am not opposed to breeding and raising pure hred stock of any kind. I want them with pedigrees, hut I want them large enough and with a strong constitution to back the pedigree up. Therefore, brother breeders, let us breed more for size rather than let our fancies for quality overrule our better judgment, and not raise the little fancy ones that are only fit to look at.

Parents, this Sunday school is for you and your children. You want your child reu to attend come yourself—there is a class for you und you will not only help the school by beiug present but will bb a blessing to others. There was a good attendance, in the evening and the pastor delivered one of his stirring and belptul sermons for which he is noted. Next Sunday morning the sermon will be for the younjj pecple and children but especially tbe young people,, as this is about the time many are graduating and entering the Bchool of life. Do not miss hearing the sermon as all will receive something that will help them. Did it ever strike you that you cau find whatever yon are looking for whether at church or out? If you are looking for Rood you can find it; it for bad you will find it; or for fault you can find that just as well. Now, what is the use of looking for fault when it is just as easy to find tbe good. Prayer meeting tonight. Let's see. How long ago was it that you said you could not live a Christian life without the aid of these mid-week services? What are you doing? Cong'I Church Notes Child'ens day exercises were wit nessed by a large attendance Sunday morning. Tbe church decorations couid not have been improved. The Children entered into the true spirit of the day. The drill by Mrs. Sykes' class was very pleasing, The Pastor and teachers wish to thank everyone that helped in anyway to make the uccassion so pleasant and we trust profitable. The sermon in the evening was exceptionally good. On account of the Baecalarreate address next Sunday evening, there will be no service at this church. Kept His Word. A young fellow in Havana who occupied the position of a reporter tvY. in lovo with a girl, the (laughter of ;• wealthy plainer. He applied to In ;• father in the orthodox w a y for hi: consent to the marriage. 'Tivsuiuiiiuous!" said the father, with eyes Hashing. "You, a poverty Htrieken journalist, ami my daughter! Sir, tret out of my presence!" The journalist was very au«ry. 1 hroun'hr forih a healed declaration o / pride: "Your daughter is too good for me. you say? I will marry a princess before I die." And, with head erect, lie left the irate father. The journalist went to Spain. He wrote poems. The poems were read by the rrineesH Josephine. There w a s a meeting. The t w o fell in love with each other. It is said t h e journalist was s o sincere in his affection that probably lie forgot his declaration to the Havana planter. They were both royally happy, eloped, married in Vnlladolid and were eventually pardoner! by Queen Isabella, the one time jour nalist being received with all the respect due to his new and high rank. When Ladies Wore Masks. In t h e seventeenth century ladies wore masks in public, and great w a - the variety of face screens that: wer•• seen. Ladies who had "coralline" li;n preferred short masks, a s w a s natura'. For others w h o wished to hide 1? lower part of the face the mask \v;i ; completed by a chin piece of linen. which afterward passed under the chin and over the ears. In 11>rS2 a new mask called t h e mlmi, from the Italian mimics, w a s all the rage and threatened t o nsnrp the place of the black one. It was even the cause ui violent quarrel* between the ladies w h o held to the latter and those who preferred t h e latest novelty. Some years later it became the fashion to trim the upper part of the mask wttli a rnrhe of ls.ee, to lengthen it with a beard of the name material nnd even to cover It more or leas with lace -e tbe borders o f t h e •jeholea. Young ladles of tliis period, however, frequently contented themeato^* with COY •ring the face simply w i t h a piece of black crape for eoQo*trw% Mice and to appear the fairer.

Th« Intensely cold nights of Siheri;;. uaya a writer, produce a curious phenomenon. Occasionally t h e silence 1 buokvn by a loud report resembling tinboom of a canuon. The noise la caused by the bursting of an ice bubble on ; river. The atreaina coming from the bills are incased in l e e s i x to nlur Inches thick, and as t h e water descends faster than it escapes throuthe river the result is a heavy hydrostatic pressure. This tirst causes f!c ice upon the river to rise in inoum! often s i x to eight feet high. For :: time they seem t o yield elastically tr. the pressure, but finally can with stand no more and burst with an explosive report. The water rushes our soon freezing, however, and causi]];.; further explosions. The writer asseii - that he has seen scores of these !<•(• hillocks within a f e w miles. Muskrat and Perfumery.

The industrial exhibit includes wireless telegraphy, flying machines, dirigible balloons, aeroplanes and other mechanical marvels. RIVERVIEW EXPOSITION'S matchless attraction is "The Creation." This stupendous sconle spectacle, animated by Biblical characters of the CI,mien of Eden, is destined to attract world-wide attention. It 1H the product of the penius of E. W.

A preat $::5,000 pipe origan intones appropriate music. Its deep tubes produce thunder, and Its flute-like notes the mimicry of forest small life. Flashes of lightning and angry storms are made by electrical and water effects. Spaot forbids an adequate description of this magnificent spectacle.

In obtaining a legal determination of the value of a scream, Miss Grace Keals of Chicago has performed a distinguished service for her sex. Miss Keals, who is an actress, sued a druggist for injury to her vocal chords, alleged to have been caused through a mistake in filling a prescription, and has been awarded 15,000, says the Pittsburg Gazette-Times. The jury was told that in emotional roleB, when the villain became perniciously active. Miss Reals had to engage another woman to do the screaming for her. The jury agreed that a screamless actress is sadly handicapped in her art, but its verdict should afford protection to women other than those who follow the profession of the stage. No woman can go safely and happily through life without a scream. From mice to burglars, there is a broad variety of emergencies, each requiring its owns scream of peculiar intensity. There are married men of long experience who claim to be able to tell from the tone of a scream whether there is a mouse in the refrigerator or little Johnny has tumbled into the well. The occupants of a Kansas City flat building were saved from a horrible death by the scream of a woman, which summoned the fire department. Therefore, an impairment of her vocal chords which interferes with her natural screaming powers is easily worth ¢5,000. In fact, the Chicago druggist who is to pay that sum to Miss Reals may congratulate himself on getting off so lightly. The speed test of the new scoutcruisers Chester, Salem and Birmingham resulted in conspicuous victory for the first-named, which in a 24-hour trip made an average of 25.50 knots per hour, her competitor, the Salem, reporting an average of 24.54. The officers of the Chester assert she could have done still better but for a slight fault in one of her turbines, which can be readily remedied, says the Troy Times. The Birmingham dropped out when the contest was half over, some impairment to the machinery rendering this necessary. But with thorough "tuning up" there seems to be no doubt that the three vessels will be valuable additions to ships of their class, the function of which will be to Hcour the sea and do It with alacrity. The letting of the contract for constructing the railroad to run from Arica, Chile, to La Paz, Bolivia, is another striking indication of the progress made in uniting the three Americas. The new line, to coat |15,000,- 000, will cross the Andes mountains at a height of 12,000 feet above the level of the sea and is to be part of the longitudinal system which is to traverse practically the entire length of Chile, 3,000 miles or more. Ana it will be an important link in that enormously greater system which in time will make it possible to travel by rail from the United States to the extreme of South America. The late Hinton Rowan Helper should have taken heart of grace, seeing how rapidly his idea was materializing. The American army mule is a valuable and useful beast, as has often been demonstrated, and he is holding his own, with no kick coming. The government stands by him. Orders have just been issued that army officers going to and from San Francisco and the military reservation near that city must ride in conveyances drawn by army mules and not automobiles. The office^ formed the automobile habit at the time of the earthquake and as & matter of emergency and necessity. But the government regards the good old reliable mule as quite adequate to ordinary conditions, and so the animal comes back to his former dignity. Residents of New York city are asking why, in the face of the casualty records of last year, and the growing movement for a safe and sane Fourth of July, the flre commissioner of that city has issued fifteen hundred permits for the sale of fireworks. This is ii consistency worthy of note; although even in cases where cities have rigid ordinances against the use of fireworks within their limits, dealers may be permitted to sell fireworks to outsiders who are not wise enough to heed the lessons of experience. The way to prevent, the abuse of the privileges is to limit the permit in thasa instances to wholesaling. TWO MISSING I K LOCATED A MJtftING BRIDEGROOM WAS FOUND IN CANTON, OHIO. WAS IN DAZED CONDITION Disappeared tha Night Bafoftt Hit Wedding Wag to Occur—Dr. Da- Nike is in the Weat. Arthur Hewea, aged 20, who disappeared with his wedding ring on the night he was to have married a pupil in his school in Pittsford, Mich., on Thursday walked into the mayor's office at Canton, 0., and, appearing much dazed, asked: "Who am I and where am I, anyway?" He was unable to give the slightest account of himself, but the police identified hlra by a crumpled card in his pocket which bore his name and address. Hewea was to have been married to Miss Barbara Heanions, a Pittsford girl. On receipt of the news Hillsdale relatives at once started to bring the young man back. Although the young man declined to give his name, it 1B believed from the general description and the circumstances, that Hewea was in Adrian the day following his disappearance. The young man in question Informed the police at Adrian that he had been robbed of $G5 in one of the Adrian hotels that morning, but the police thought that he was either telling a fake story, or had mislaid his money, and so did not give him much encouragement. Ho later boarded an interurban car for Toledo. He told the Adrian officers that he was a school teacher at Pittsford. Dr. DeNike Heard From. Attorney John Q. Ross, of Muskegon, on Thursday received a letter from Br, A. James DeNike, the missing Whitehall physician. The postmark on the envelope was badly blurred and it is impossible to discover whence the letter came, except that, from tho general trend of the communication, indications point to the doctor's having written from some western town. In his letter Dr. DeNike says the reports as to hie debts and attentiveness to other women than his wife are false, but he refuses to give the reason for his abrupt departure. Mrs. Glazier Won. Mrs. F. P. Glazier, in the suit for $30,850 recently brought against her by the Stockbridge bank of Stockbridgc\ won through a verdict of no cause for action, directed bv Judge Wicst, at Mason. In 1901 Gilbert H. Gay and F. P. Glazier, who were partners in the Stockbridge bank, took $27,600 worth of United States government bonds which they placed in the safety deposit vaults in Detroit, with the understanding that they were not to be removed until both of them consented. At that time Mr. Glazier gave his promissory note payable to the Stockbridge bank for $27,600. On December 1, 1907, when, from the common report, Mr. Gay thought that Mr. Glazier's financial condition was unsettled, he sent for him and asked for the bonds, and received the reply that Mr. Glazier had used them. Mrs. Glazier offered to give her personal note. Mr. Gay traded Mr. Glazier's note for Mrs. Glazier's for the amount of the indebtedness, which now amounts to $30,850. The bank brought suit to recover the amount of the note. The defense was that a married woman shall not be liable for debt. A Father'* Grief. After having a premonition that some harm might come to the boy, but allowing the little fellow's pleadings to overcome his better judgment, Henry Chuest^in, a well-to-do farmer, let his son Willie, aged 3, sit with him while he drove a heavy load to Mflan. When about half way to his destination, the elder Chuestein was horrified, when the wheels struck a deep rut in the road, to see the child bounced from his seat into the roadway. Chucstein, with a mighty effort, pulled up his team, but it was too late and two wheels passed over the little boy's body, crushing out his life. Chuestein, almost insane with srief, drove back to his home, five miles, with the body, without delivering his load. The Chuesteins have three other children. Lets (n Ofeo. The farmers of Michigan will find .a new proposition to cut the present prohibitive internal revenue tax on oleomargarine, a menace to the butter- making industry. Secretary Mac- Veagh, of the treasury, has worked out the details of a provision fixing a gat rate of two cents a pound. This rate is intended fo take the place of the 10-eent rati now taxed against colored oleomargarine and the half-cent rate taxed against uncolored. This change would probably reduce the price of butter by opening a wider market to oleo and would according to Mr. MacVeagh's figures, furnish about $2,000,000 in revenue. STATS BRIEFS.

Richardson, of Salt Lake City, Utah, who had Just arrived from the west. Mrs. James McGlvern, who died Saturday in Mercy hospital, has been trying for several years to establish her marriage to McGlvern, who, when she was Relzed with gangrene, which caused her death, abandoned her and brought another woman to live with him.

BOPY FOUND IN A TRUNK Young Lady Had Assoolated With the Mongolian and a Horror Is the Re suit of I t The body of Miss Elsie Sigel, the 20-year-old daughter of Paul Bigel, a clerk employed in the New York board of health, and a son of Gen. Franz Sigel, .the late civil war veteran and former comptroller of the city of New York, was found Saturday evening crammed Into a trunk in the room occupied by a young educated Chinaman of the Sunday school type at 782 Eighth avenue. It was so badly decomposed as to be unrecognizable, but a locket and bracelet found upon it were identified, by Mrs. Sigel as the property of her daughter. The Chinaman disappeared from his lodging place a week ago, and It was the coroner's opinion that the body had been in the trunk fully that length of time. William L. Leon, the young Chinaman who occupied the room, was well known in missionary circles in the city. He was frequently seen with Miss Sigel. Miss Sigel disappeared from her home, June 9. • Around the neck of the young woman was a spangle, apparently a college or high school pin, bearing the initials E. C. S. Mr. Sigel examined this spangle first and said-that he could not, recall that his daughter had ever/had one like it. Then he looked at. the body and weut away declarlng/that it was not that J>f his daughter. The police, however, insisted o^sending the spangle and a b r a c e l e t s Mr. Sigel's home and having the mother of the girl examine it. She identified both articles. According to the story which Mr. Sigel told the police his daughter gave no warning when she left home on June 9. On the 12th, however, he received a telegram from Washington bearing his daughter's name. This telegram, so the police say, read as follows: "Will be home Sunday evening. Don't worry.—Elsie." Both Mr. Sigel's wife and her. daughter were interested in missionary work among the Chinese. It was through work of this sort that Miss Sigel met Leon. The police said that there was a picture of the missing Chinaman in the Sigel home. One or two persons informed the detectives that they had seen Miss Sigel with the Chinaman at the theater about a week ago. Her letters to "Dearest Lim," together with affectionate or imploring notes from another white woman who signed herself "Nellie/' and packets of picture postcards from a dozen white women, were found in the room of the Chinaman. Some of the letters were undated, Others went back to the spring of 1907. Still others had been written within a few weeks. All of them were signed simply Elsie, but they contained allusions that left no doubt as to identity of the girl who wrote them. A few of the longer ones reproached Leung Lim for coldness toward a girl that loved him, but many held no hint that she doubted the Chinaman's affection. On the contrary, they glowed warmly with assurances of her own devotion. There was not a word or a syllable in one of them which might point the way to understanding how Elsie Sigel came to her death in the lowceiled grimy room above the chop suey shop. The police heads studied these letters for hours, then, under straight orders from Commissioner Bingham, refused to allow them to be printed. Take it any way you like, said one in authority at headquarters, it was not a pleasant story and no reason appeared why Elsie Sigel's letters to the queueless missioner should be spread in public. It was sufficient to say that she was in love with the yellow man and that their intimacy had been closs. ReyA Abandons Office. Advices received from Cartagena, Colombia, confirm previous reports that Gen. Rafael Reyes, president of Colombia, has abandoned office and sailed for Europe. He embarked on a small fruit steamer at Santa Marta last Sunday, according to the Information received at Cartagena Monday night. It is believed the steamer is one of the Elder-Dempster line, bound direct for Southampton. The Cartagena advices state that the president's trip to Europe is known and approved by Gen. Jorge Holguin, the president-designate, and the ministry, and that it is Gen. Reyes's intention to return for the meeting of congress on July 20, if a majority of his countrymen so desire, or in case of a disturbance of the peace, which It considered a remote possibility.

Ray Lamphere Dying, In response to a letter from her brother, Ray Lamphere, Mrs. Finley hurried to the Michigan City, Ind., prison to see the prisoner notorious through his association with Mrs. GTxnness, the arch-mur dress, for the burning of whose home Lamphere was, sent to the penitentiary. Lamphere in his letter said he recently had suffered four hemorrhages; and believed death was Imminent. This belief was confirmed in the mind of Mrs. Finley by the refusal of the prison authorities to allow her to visit her brother in the hospital ward. Despite her pleadings the deputy warden was obdurate, replying: "Lamphere is extremely low and cannot see any one." It is understood an effort to secura his immediate parole will be made, but his demise is expected before this step can be taken. President Penna Deed. President Penna, of Brazil, died jMonday morning, according to a dispatch received at the state department from the American amabassador at Rio de Janeiro. His death was evidently very sudden. The last report of his doings concerned the opening of the Brazilian congress, May 4, and his message to that body, and two weeks later his refusal to accept the resignation of the Brazilian minister of finance. Dr. Penna was elected by universal suffrage in the 20 federated states in 1906 and assumed office November 15 of that year. His term expired in 1910. He was a native of the state of Minas Geraes, and his success was the outcome of a coalition of the principal states against San Paulo, which has supplied all past, presidents. The vicepresident of the republic is Nilo Pecanha. THE MARKETS.

The atory opens with the shipwreck of "the steamer on which Mltfs Genevieve Leslie, an American heiress, Ix>rd Winthrepe, an Englishman, and Tom Blake, •a brusyue American, were passengers. The three were tossed upon an uninhabited island and were • the only ones not ><irowned. Blake recovered from a drunken .stupor, Blake, shunned on the boat, because of his roughness, became a hero as preserver of the helpless pair. The Englishman was suing for the hand of Miss Leslie. Blake started to swim back to the ship to recover what was left. Blake returned safely, Winthrope wasted his last match on a cigarette, for which he was scored by Blake. Their first meal was a dead fish. The trio started a ten miie hike for higher land. Thirst attacked them. Blake was compelled to •carry Miss Leslie on account of weariness. He taunted Winthrope. They entered the Jungle. That night was passed roosting high In a tree. The next morning they descended to the open again. CHAPTER VI.—Continued. "How wide is it?" inquired Winthrope, gazing at his swollen hands. "About 300 yards at high tide. May l)e narrower at ebb." "Could you not build a raft?" suggested Miss Leslie. Blake smiled at her simplicity. "Why not a boat? We've got a penknife." •'Well, then, I can swim." "Bully for you! Guess, though, we'll try something else. The river is chuck full of alligators. What you waiting for, Pat? We haven't got all day to fool around here." Winthrope twisted the creeper about Ms leg and slid to the ground, doing all he could to favor his hands. He found that he could walk without pain, and at once stepped over beside Blake's club, glancing nervos*ly around at the jungle. Blake jerked up the end of the creeper, and passed the toop about Miss Leslie. Before she had time to become frightened he swung her over and lowered her to the ground lightly as a feather. He followed, hand under hand, and stood for a moment beside her, staring at the dew-dripping foliage of the jungle. Then the remains of the night's quarry caught his eye, and he walked over to examine them. "Say, Pat," he called, "these don't look like deer bones. I'd say—yes; there's the feet—it's a pig." "Any tusks?" demanded Winthrope. Miss Leslie looked away. A heap of bones, however cleanly gnawed, is not a pleasant sight. The skull of the animal seemed to be missing; but Blake stumbled upon it in a tuft of grass and kicked it out upon the open ground. Every shred of hide and gristle had been gnawed from it by the jackals; yet If there had been any doubt as to the creature's identity there was evidence to spare in the savage tusks which projected from the jaws. "Je-rusalem!" observed Blake; "this old boar must have been something of a scrapper his own self." *In India they have been known to kill a tiger. Can you knock out the tusks?" "What for?" "Well, you said we had nothing for arrow points—" "Good boy! We'll cinch them and ask questions later;" A few blows with the club loosened the tusks. Blake handed them over to Winthrope, together with the whisky flask, and led the way to the halfbroken patch through the thicket. A free use of his club made the path a little more worthy of the name, and as there was less need of haste than on the previous evening, Winthrope and Miss Leslie came through wlt'n only a few fresh, scratches. Once on open ground again, they soon gained the fallen palms. At a word from Blake, Miss Leslie hastened to fetch; ntfta for Winthrope to h'jsk and open. Blake, who had plucLed three leaves from a fan palm near the edge of the jungle, began to split long shreds from one of the huge leaves of a cocoanut palm. This gave him a quantity of coarse, stiff fiber, part of which he twisted in a cord and used to tie one of the leaves of the fan palm over her head. "How's that for a bonnet?" he demanded. The improvised head-gear bore to ^ ^ j M V r e a e m b U i n c e to a w c ^ T ^ a t f ^ ^ ^ Itu-css opinion without a "I think it 1» If we must t o It U just the thins type coul hat «i| "it la to protect one." "Ye* Here's two more I've Axe* for yon, jfceedy yet, Winthrope?" The Englishman JWfded, and the three sat down* to their third feast of cocoanut*. They were hungry enough at the start, and Blake added nollUIe keenness even to his own appetite by a, grim Joke, on the slender prospects of the next meal, to the effect that If in the meantime not eaten themselves they might possibly find their next meal within a week. "But If we must move,-could we not take some of the nuts with us?" suggested Winthrope. Blake pondered over this as he ate, and when fully satisfied he helped himself up with his club he motioned the others to remain seated. "There are your hata and the strings," he said, "but you won't need them now. I'm going to take * a prospect along the river, and while I'm gone, you can make a try at stringing nuts on Borne of this leaf fiber." "But, Mr. Blake, do you think it's quite safe?" asked Miss Leslie, and she glanced from him to the jungle. "Safe?" he repeated. "Well, nothing ate you yesterday, if that's anything to go by. It's all I know about it." He did not wait for further protests. Swinging his club on his shoulder he started for the break in t*e jungle which marked the hippopotamus path. The others looked at each other, and Miss Leslie sighed. "If only he were a gentleman!" she complained. Winthrope turned abruptly to the cocoanuts. C H A P T E R V H . Ground the Headland. T was mid morning before Blake reappeared. He came from the mangrove swamp where it ran down into the sea. His trousers were smeared to the thigh with slimy mud; but as he approached the drooping brim of. his palm-leaf hat failed to hide his exultant expression. "Come on!" he called. "I've struck it. We'll be over in half an hour." "How's that?" asked Winthrope. was enough tor bjan that thousand was [ follow, after Pat ha* retted his ankle. smooth and hard as a race track. Keep a sharp eye but for anything lnpresently the party came to the end the flint line—quart* or agate. That of the tplt, where th^ river water rip- Stopped to Survey the Coast Beyond. "Bar," answered Blake, hurrying forward. "Sling on your hats and get into my coat again, Miss Jenny. The sun's hot as yesterday. How about the nuts?" •'Here they are. Three strings; all that I fancied we could carry," explained Winthrope. "All right. The big one is mine, I suppose. I'll take two. We'll leave the other. Lean on me if your ankle is still weak." "Thanks; I can make it alone. But must we go through mud like that?" "Not on this side, at least. Come on! We don't want to miss the ebb." Blake's impatience discouraged further inquiries. He had turned as he spoke, and the others followed him, walking close together. The pace was sharp for Winthrope, and his ankle soon began to twinge. He was comjeM^ i to accept Miss Leslie's Invitatint i l take her arm. With her help he ;n*.n*ged to keep within a few yards of Blake. Instead of plunging into the mangrove wood, which here was underg ->wn ^ i t h a thicket of giant ferns, Blak' si.lrted around in the open until tt>^ came to the seashore. The tide was at its lowest, and he waved his club towards a long sand pit which curved out around the seaward edge of the mangroves. Whether this was part of the river's bar or had been heaped up by the cyclone would have been beyond Winthrope'* knowledge pled eve* the sand with the last feabh) ©tft-suck of the ebb. On their right they had a sweeping view of the river, arouhd t h e ffcnki 6¾ the mangrove, acn*en, .Blake halted a t the edge of the water and half, tamed, "Close up.'V he aaid- "Jt> shallow eaou«b; hut do you see (hose logs oyer on the mud-bunk? ,Those are alligators." "Mercy-—and you expect me to wade among such creatures?" cried Miss Leslie. x "I went almost across an hour ago and they didn't bother me any. xCome on! There's, a wind in that cloud out seaward. Inside half an hour the surf'Il be rolling up on this bar like all Niagara." "It we must, we must, Miss Genevieve," urged Winthrope. "Step behind me and gather up your skirts. It's best to keep one's clothes dry in the tropics." The girl blushed, and retained his arm. A "1 prerer 10 oelp you," she replied. "Come on!" called Blake, and he splashed out into the water. Th/> others followed within arm'slength, nervously conscious of the rows of motionless reptiles on the mud-flat, not 100 yards distant. In the center of the bar, where the water was a trifle over knee-deep, some large creature came darting downstream beneath the surface and passed with a violent swirl between Blake and his companions. At Miss Leslie's scream, Blake whirled about and jabbed with his club at the supposed alligator. "Where's the brute? Has he got you?" he shouted. "No, no; he went by!" gasped Winthrope. "There he is!" A long bony snout, fringed on either side by a row of lateral teeth, was flung up into view. "Sawfish!" said Blake, and he waded on across the bar without further comment. Miss Leslie had been on the point of fainting. The tone of Blake's voice revived her instantly. There were no more scares. A few minutes later they waded out upon a stretch of clean sand on the south of the river. Before them the beach lay in a flattened curve, which at the far end hooked sharply to the left and appeared \ o terminate at the foot of the towering limestone cliffs of the headland. A mile or more inland the river jungle edged in close to the cliffs; but from there to the beach the forest was separated from the wall of rock by a little sandy plain, covered with creeping plants and small palms. The greatest width of the open space was hardly more than a quarter of a mile. Blake paused for a moment at hightide mark, and Winthrope instantly squatted down to nurse his ankle. "I say, Blake," he said, "can't you find me some kind of a crutch? It is only a few yards around to those trees." "Good Lord! you haven't been fool enough to overstrain that ankle— Yes, you have. Dammit! why couldn't you tell me before?" "It did not feel so painful in the water." "I helped the best 1 could," interposed Miss Leslie. "I think if you could get Mr. Winthrope a crutch—" "Crutch!" growled Blake. "How long do you think it would take me to wade through the mud? And look at that cloud 1 We're in for a squall. Here!" He handed the girl the smaller string of cocoanuts, flung the other up the beach and stooped for Winthrope to mount his back. He then started off along the beach at a sharp trot. Miss Leslie followed as best she could, the heavy cocoanuts swinging about with every step and bruising her tender body. The wind was coming faster than Blake had calculated. Before they had run 200 paces they heard the roar of rain-lashed water, and the squall struck them with a force that almost overthrew the girl. With the wind came torrents of rain that drove through their thickest garments and drenchedvthem to the skin within the first half-minute. Blake slackened his pace to a walk and plodded sullenly along beneath the driving downpour. He kept to the lower edge of the beach, where the sand was firmest, for the force of the falling deluge beat down the waves and held in check the breakers which the wind sought to roll up the beach. The rain storm was at its height when they reached the foot of. the cliffs. The gray rock towered above them 30 or 40 feet high. Blake deposited Winthrope upon a wet ledge and straightened up to scan the headland. Here and there ledges ran more than half-way up the rocky wall; in other places the crest was notched by deep clefts; but nowhere within sight did either offer a continuous path to the summit. Blake grunted with disgust "It'd take a fire ladder to get up this side," he said. "We'll have to try the other, if we can get around the means fee. Another "thing, when this rata blows over, don't let your clothes d i ^ ©V you. ?ve got fi«r-"hands full eaimflh without having,! to nurse you through malarial fever. Don't forget the cocoanuts, and if 1 don't show up by noon save 4ne some." He stooped to drink from a pool in the rock which was overflowing with the cool, pure rainwater, and started , Off at his sharpest pace. Winthrope and Miss Leslie, seated side by side in dripping misery, watched him swing away through the rain without energy enough to call out a parting word. Beneath the cliff the sand beach was succeeded by a talus of rocky debris which in places sloped up from the water 10 or 15 feet. The lower part of the slope consisted of bowlders and water-worn stones, over which the surf, reinforced by the rising tide, was beginning to break with an angry roar. Blake picked his way quickly over the smaller stones near the top of the slope, now and then bending to snatch up a fragment that seemed to differ from the others. Finding nothing but limestone he soon turned his attention solely to the passage around the headland. Here he had expected to find the surf much heavier. But the shore was protected by a double line of reefs, so close in that channel between did not show a whitecap. This was fortunate, since in places the talus here sank down almost to the level of low tide. Even a moderate surf would have rendered farther progress impracticable. Another 100 paces brought Blake to the second corner of the cliff, which jutted out in a little point. He clambered around it and stopped to survey the coast beyond. Within the last few minutes the -squall had blown over and the rain began to moderate its downpour. The sun, bursting through the clouds, told that the storm was almost past, and its flood of direct light cleared the view. (TO BE CONTINUED.) S H O P P I N G I N F R A N C E I S E A S Y . Saleswomen A r e R e m a r k a b l y Adept a t T h e i r Business. That the saleswomen in European shops are wonderfully quick-witted has often been noted. This Is especially true of the French. Many of them, without understanding English, will interpret correctly the comments Americans make aside when examining goods, simply by studying their ges tures and facial expressions. Once in Brussels we were looking at gloves. To my certain knowledge the saleswoman was wholly unacquainted with the English language. My companion said privately to me: "I am afraid these gloves will spot." "O, no, madame," the saleswoman instantly interrupted, in French, "they will never spot at all." In Boulogne-sur-Mer, at a shop for men's furnishings, I asked for dress shirts. A very bright young woman gave me a quick, sharp glance, and then brought some specimens. They bore no distinguishing marks as to size. "Is there some man here who can take my measure?" I asked. "That is not necessary, sir," she replied, very sweetly. "Are you sure these will fit me?" "Perfectly." "But how can you tell?" I argued, unconvinced. "Why, sir," she explained in surprise at my doubt, "I looked at you." So I took the shirts to my room and tried them on, and surely enough, they were the best fit I ever had.—Travel Magazine. "Navigates" His Farm. A story which almost parallels that told of Capt. Gray, the sailor-farmer of Toddy Pond, who is said to carry a compass on his plow to run the furrows straight, comes from Cranberry isles. One sea captain, who enjoys the proud distinction of owning one of the very few horses on the island, got. alarmed for fear that he would lose his bearings in the recent smoke, and on the veracious accounts of sober citizens took the binnacle from the vessel and strapped it alongside the seat of his wagon, fearing that the weather might become so thick that he would lose his bearings and have to navigate in what was worse than a fog. It is currently reported that he shouts at his team to turn to starboard or port, instead of the more conventional landlubber term's usually employed. — Kennebec (Me.) Journal.

W O N T MIX Bad Food and Good Health W o n t Mix, The human stomach stands much abuse but it won't return good health if you give it bad food. If you feed right you will feel right, for proper food and a good mind is the sure road to health. "A year ago I became much alarmed about my health for I began to suffer after each meal no matter how little I ate," says a Denver woman. "I lost my appetite and the very thought of food grew distasteful, with the result that I was not nourished and got weak rnd thin. • "My home cares were very heavy, for besides a large family of my own I have also to look out for my aged mother. There was no one to shoulder my household burdens, and come what might, I must bear them, and this thought nearly drove me frantic when I realized that my health was breaking down. "I read an article in the paper about some one with trouble just like mine being cured on Grape-Nuts food and acting on this suggestion I gave Grape- Nuts a trial. The first dish of this delicious food proved that I had struck the right thing. "My uncomfortable feelings in stomach and brain disappeared as if by magic and in an incredibly short space of time I was myself again.

While many of them are "not worth killing" some are as houorable as any white person. Lucy, my "maid" (as* she prefers to be called,) is one oi the true and faithful ones. I tell her we will will both enter the same door of Heaven; and when we get in, she will be as white as I. One of her favorite songs is "Whiter than Snow." I wish you could hear her sing. I love to hear her sing; not because there is any music in her voice but because she puts her whole soul in it; she sings only Gospel songs and is a wonderful missionary among her people. I know of many a one she has led into a better life; even her own husband was converted this winter through her influence. When she first came to me nearly two years ago, I asked her if shs was a Christian; she replied very emphatically, "Yes ma'am." I said, "Is your husband a Chiistian?" S h e said, "No, ma'am; he's a sinner; he dances." A funeral has a perfect facination for the darkies and they will leave everything to watch a procession; they have a great horror of not having a decent burial; conseqently they nearly all belong to some lodge which provides for them iu case of sickness and death. Lucy belongs to one of these; and one day in telling me the advantage derived from it, she said "they told me if you should die, Lucy, we suttenly won ft] fliberalize you good." A few days later, I thought their opportunity had come, for she was awfully sick. I 'phoned her colored doctor to come iu haste, for I knew his medicine was what had caused the trouble. Afterwards, in making excuses for him, she said, "The reason he purpe me so bad inside, was for the rheumatic rheumatism." She would like to go North with me this summer; but said "George says you is the onlyest pusson he would let me go with." My husband is in Denver, Colo. • now for his health, but does not improve as he hoped; so is likely i to return soon and may go to Mexjieo where he has been greatly ben- I efitted before. My son graduated from a preparatory school here | this year and hopes to enter the |mining school at Golden, Colo, in !the jail. | We have taken the "Dispatch" since the first copy was issued and would not be without it. We are aiway'S witb_ you in spirit a,t the reunions, and hope some time to be present in body. And my prayer is, "When the roll is called up yonder, we will all be there." M. J.

We had been trying to get the old man interested in the purchase of town lota in the suburbs, but the eloquence was wasted. "You young fellers keep away from it, I tell ye," after a pause. "I oncet bought a farm through the papers, and mebbe my egsperience might do ye a lot of good. The property was located on a steep hill 'bove the town of Crooked Run, Idyho. Ef they'd th'owed in a' elevator, I'd had a bar* gain, for the groun* waB mighty rich.

Ther' was one feller 'bout the size ef a waterbutt, I take it. 'at seemed ter have a special grudge ag'ln' me, *- trippia'of me HP,tand then jumpln' on me in the most onfriendly way.

"When I was able to open a' eye I was waited on by a committee of prominent parties of the town. A'ter expressin' their dis'p'intment at findin' me alive, they perceded to make remarks cal-lated ter hurt the feelin's. They axes me, among other things, would I prefer jumpin' the town that night or spendin' the dim future in cold storage. From the IOOKS of these gents I see they would prefer I choose the latter. Naterally I axes the chief of these he-b'ara wherefore they was so eager to play it dirt on a' orphan, and they obleegingly shows their keerds. It seemB 'at the night my farm took to the road ther' were a' enter talnment in the basement of the meetin'- house give by The Lambs o' Zion for the beniflt o' suthin' or other. The chapel sot at the bottom o' my hill, and the revelry was Interrupted mighty suddlnt when the front door busts open an' in sashays 'bout four dozen o* them iron-clad watermelons full o' business and mixes up with the company permiBCUs. Them what couldn't git in the door come tumblin' in th'ough the winders, which happened to be open on 'count of the warm night. Wal, ye'd imagined they hed hed special invertations, to see the way they made theirselves to hum. "Now it happened they was two cliques 'mong the Lambs o' Zion, an' when this fruit invades the place they each accuses the other of puttin' up the job. Words flew back and forth, and soon the melons too. In ten minutes I was told the place looked like a slaughter house. It must ha' be'n a sight! "Thar* was one lady there doin' the Rebecca at the well act what got took back of the year by a green 'im. Here the leaves her duties and disappears in the lemonade bar'l. Dein' a sour party, it don'tsweeten her dispersitlon none. She makes onkind remarks to the gent what fished her out, and they exchanges compliments and other things. The room meanwhile was a loadin' up. The hull ten acres seemed to have fixed on that meetln' room for a rendywoo, an' the sociable folks was gettin' ter be anything but social. "A'ter a spell ther' was a simultaneous move for the door, but the melons had the right of way on the stairs, which the same was narrer. When all did manage to scrunch ther' way out I hear the remarks made was tur'ble, and it was variously suggested by interested parties that burnin' at the stake and boilin* in oil would be showin' angelic mercy to the catymount that injured their clothes and feeiin's.

When Hunt joined the rapidly swelling ranks to investigate he saw a man on his hands and knees eating g^rass with seeming relish. The unfortunate wou'd leap in a bullfrog fashion from one bunch, of clover grass to another, chew a cud and .swallow it. He tackled a couple of shrubs rather ravenously and seemed oblivious to the surrounding and laughing crowd. Hunt climbed over the wall and grabbed the grass eater, who became offended and sought to escape. He fought for a few minutes, when he suddenly became pacified, Then he dropped to his knees again and Insisted on'eating more grass. When the prisoner saw water he became unmanageable and frantic. His peculiar behjyior led to the belief that he had, hydrophobia, although h e made no attempt at biting the policeman/ Th* only other evidence of hydrophobia was his propensity to growl like a dog. Alter being attended by a s ambulance surgeon the man was taken to Bellevue* He became very wild and excited there. He was placed* In the alcoholic ward, but he is not supposed to be affected by intoxicants. His violense increased to such an extent that he had to be put in a restraining apparatus. After he had„been quieted some he was questioned as to his identity. He muttered "William Brennan." That is supposed to be his name. He stared in blank amazement when asked for his address. White Robin Attacks Man. New York.—Curiosity led Zebulon Hammerslein of Montclalr Heights, N. J., to peep into the nest that a white robin is building in a tree on the Rand estate, on Hawthorne avenutf Montclalr. "I raised my head carefully and looked into the nest," says Hammerslein. "There were no eggs in it. I started to descend. My foot broke a twig and the bird heard it. She flew at me and jabbed me three times with her bill under the right eye. I lost my hold on a branch and fell to the ground. That knocked my right shoulder out of Joint. Well, it's a fact that while I was lying there that bird attacked me again and drove her hill a dozen times Into my face and neck." Hammerslein hurried to a physicisn, who attended to his injuries.

NEW VARIETIES OF TOMATOES] Fpr Special Tsbtt Use—Required by Largs Hotels — Qreen-House- Qrown Fruit Most Desirsbls, The torei .g of tomatoes under glass has assumed considerable proportions in the middle and northern states, and the demand for the greenhouse- grown crop is steadily Increasing. This is due to the fact that tomatoes when grown under glass are superior to those that-are grown In the extreme southern states and which must necessarily be picked partially green and shipped long distances before reaching our markets. For special table use, such a s is demanded by large hotels, the greenhouse- grown fruit will always be In demand. A number of varieties have been put on the market for cultivation under glass. Some of these are very good, but none has all the characteristics which would render it ideal. ' The ideal tomato is one with the following characters combined: 1. A fruit without a depression at the stem end. 2. A round fruit without ridges. X. A fruit with the interior well formed and compact. 4. A fruit 6? medium sift growing in large clusters. ft.

Only about 20 of the last selection showed decidedly promising results. As the time taken to test a new tomato thoroughly is loner than with most vegetables, the work will continue in an experimental state for some time. GOOD FARM SUGGESTIONS. Be very careful about giving the brood mares heavy loads at this season, but they must have enough gentle exercise to keep them in good form. Now doth the little Ipuse get in.his work on the chickens. Keep going the whitewash brush, the powder can and the kerosene sprayer. The farm well often sends up from its cool depths the rankest kind of typhoid germs. See that no foul water drains into it from the surface or seeps through from outhouses. Spread a large sheet under the plum tree and jar Mr. Curculio off his perch. He turns out over one brood a year and any fruit that showB his sting should be burned. A good time to transfer the bees from old-fashioned wooden hives into new ones is when the blossoms are plentiful. The poultry water vessels should be given, more attention than ever. Do you know young chicks often die from regular chills? Well, they do.- Keep them dry and warm on damp, cHilly days. » DISK-HARROWING OF ALF4LFA , 11 . y i . . 1 . At a TrllHnf.

Although requiring rather peculiar climatic and soi^ conditions^. yet celery can be grown both for home use and market over a wider area than most people think. Almost everybody Is fond of celery, and it is a healthful vegetable food. With a little study and experience in growing it, celery might be on the table of ten times the number of homes that it now is, and it might be grown for market by twice the number of gardeners that already grow it. Celery loves a cool climate, and a light, fertile, humus-laden, moist soil. The ideal climatic conditions for the production of celery are bright sunshine, pure air, cool nights and a well distributed rainfall of about eight inches during the growing period in the field or garden. In the production of celery for domestic use, a rich, mellow, sandy loam will give the best results. The soil of the seed bed should contain plenty of leaf mold and should be passed through a sieve having not less than six meshes to the inch. The soil of the transplanting bed need not be sifted so fine, and some well rotted barnyard manure should replace a part of the leaf mold; in other* respects it should be the same as the seed bed. Any fertile, well drained soil will grow celery, but a rich, loose, sandy loam is preferable. The soil cannot well be made too rich, and the presence of a large amount of humus or vegetable mold is an essential for large and rapid growth. In the regions where peat bogs or muck soil abound the crop may be more easily produced on these than on any other soils, but the keeping qualities are not so good, and the flavor is never equa1 to that of celery grown on sandy loam, or even on clay soils. If nothing but clay soil is available, it may be made to produce good celery by lib eral application of well rotted ma nure. On clay soils there is likely tc be injury caused by the soil becom ing washed into the hearts of the plants while they are yet small. Artificial Stone Posts. Good sharp, hard cinders with sane and cement, without broken stones will make good artificial stone posts or other concrete work, but the cin ders must be as hard, sharp and grittj as the best gravel or broken stone Any artificial stone object made o' cinders has the advantage of being much lighter than when made of stont or gravel. Late Potatoes. Potatoes planted after June 1 m a j not mature before frost. Potatoes like other crops, need plant food. P o tato soils should be well supplied wit! humus to increase their capacity foi retaining water. Drought is a s e rious enemy to the crop. Humus it best supplied by plowing undei clover. If stable manure is used 11 should be applied a year ahead of th« potato crop. ••• 1 • • • • — • — ^ - • 1 H U M • Good for Cabbage.

There was a large nnmber present at the morning services and there was no excuse for any staying at home —the day was perfect and they were sure of hearing something good. The sermon was to the young especially but was well adapted to all and all were interested. The evening sermon was taken up on account of it being the evening of the Baccalaureate address at St. Marys church. Sunday school was well attended as well there being 98 registered. Next Sunday come early for this service. There will be somewhat of a change in the holding of the seryices next Sunday and hereafter during the summer months at least if it is found to meet with success. This will be that the morning preaching service, will commence at the regular hour promptly— 10:30 and close as promptly at 11:90 with a song and that song will be the opening tong of Sunday school and all are expected to remain for the session as it will close promptly at* 12 or at the time it has been commencing usually. This is done to give all a chance to attend Sunday school and get home at the usual time so there will be no excuse. The benediction will not be pronounced until the close of 8unday school at 12. This plan is being tried in several places with good success. Remember you will get home as early as before, There will be no time for visiting between the services and you can stay as long after them as you wish. "Evijry child in the chnrcb service and eyery church attendant in the 8unday school" will be the slogan for the next few weeks. It is a good motto; let us live up to it. Last Sabbath was a beautiful day and a goodly nnmber improved the opportunity of hearing what might be terraed one of the finest baccalaureate sermons ever preached in Ptnokaey, although it was only intended for the young people of the church. Judging from the renarks of commendation after the service, it was one of the most helpful and pleasing sermons to the older ones that our pastor has given, We often hear it said, the last sermon seemed to be the best. The music was very much appreciated. You are welcome to all the services of the church—ome with ni, we will do you good. Confirmation S e r v i c e Wednesday the beautiful and impressive servioe of confirmation was held at St. Mary's churob when a class of 95 took the vows of the church.

It certainly seemed as if they had all come, as it kept the ushers guessing to get them all seated. The little ones did fine and a great deal of credit and praise is due the committee who had charge of this part of the work. The committee were determined to win and the exercises together with the remarks that were heard on all sides, proved the success which crowued their efforts.
