PINCKKKT, • - - MICHIGAN • '•J, ,JJ,' • "" . I '.•='" » K € K MIOPtN TREASURE. A romantic story of supposed hid den trWurarfc, quite In the style of Ed/gmr Allan Poe, comes from Cfcoenber* in Moravia. The tower of the ancient Rataaua, despite the protests of the Vienna Conservatives, was lately demolished, as it was declared to he unsafe. As the rubbish was being removed a document was found in a hollow stone stating that during the thirty years' war the town funds were bricked up in a certain part of the Rathaus. The place could be seen when at a certain hour on a certain day the shadow of the Rathaus spire fell upon it The town council has resolved to find the shadow by building a scaffold of the same height and form. Much excitement prevails, and many bets are being taken. Some people suppose that the document was inserted by a workman, and they believe that after the war the treasure was recovered. The success of a wireless transmission experiment at Omaha, where 4,000 lamps at the electrical show were lighted for four hours by a current sent to them without wires is something to cause uneasiness among the holders of shares in electric lighting companies, and carry a feeling of satisfaction to municipalities which have refused to be tempted into street lighting ventures. A aneer complaint, made by a citizen of Los Angeles, emphasizes tfye march of progress in this age. The complaint is to the effect that owing to the popularity of aviation- in the city, appropriately named of the Angels, the sand from balloons is thrown down over the lawns and freshlypainted flats, instead ot In the garbage cans provided for city refuse. r - r m — • " I"-T"— . Says the New York law under which the chauffeur was convicted after killing the boy: "The killing of a human being by an act imminently dangerous to others, and evincing a depraved mind, regardless of human life, although without a premeditated design, is punishable by a verdict of murder in the first degree." That seems to fit the case very nicely. ';: i t . " U • •' ..'J : " Boston women ^re discussing the question of whether beauty and brains go together. Ancient history lends its aid to modern gallantry to ma.se the answer easy. Of course they do. The Greeks were noted no iess for their art and philosophy than for their physical graces. Beauty and brains are natural affinities, as much as pork and beans. 55C There are torpedo boats and torpedo boat destroyers for warfare on the sta. And now Japan is credited with having devised an airship destroyer for use in the event of flying machines being utilized for fighting purposes. Invention matched against invention leaves the world very uncertain as to what will come next. A man who shot the Niagara rapMs five times and went over the Horseshoe falls in a barrel died lately of a cold contracted from sitting in a draught To go through such almost certain perils unharmed, merely to succumb to a trivial cause, is but another illustration of the grim irony of fate. Putting poison about in places, especially parks, aside from the question of its legality, is a very dangerous practice, as small children are quite as likely to get hold of it as the animals. Poison is a thing which no circumstances will excuse in any but a very safe and secluded place.

DEADLY ASSAULT INSANE CONVICT 6LA&WKS THI HALLMA8TER OF JACKSON PRISON. DIFFICULT TO SUBDUE, Had Been in Asylum at Ionia for Two Months »t\4 Was Returned to Prison "Cured.* Hallmaster Thompson, of the state prison at Jackson, who was attacked by CharleB Morris, a convict from Detroit, and badly gashed with a knife about the face and head, after the" man had unsuccessfully tried, to brain Keeper Larmie, when the latter hand* ed him his dinner, probably will recover, although he is weak from loss of blood. Larinie was felled with a blow over the head from the cane he had on his arm and which was suddenly seized by the maddened prisoner. Morris then darted dawn the corridor and up the stairway to the guard room, where Hallmaster Thompson saw him and grappled wi«h bim. The convict used his knife wildly on Thompson, who did not give up in spite of his wounds, until he had overpowered Morris. Keeper Larmie escaped with a scalp wound. Morris has once been sent to the asylum for criminal insane at Ionia. This was on October 19, 1908. They kept him there only two months and sent him back. Some weeks ago Dr. Pray noticed that Morris' condition of mind was becoming bad again, and he was ordered placed in a deteution cell, where he was yesterday at the time he assaulted Keeper Larmie. Fiohtlhfl a Boose Parlor. Coral village is all wrought up over the saloon question. So interested are the citizens in driving out the solitary rum shop, the only one in commission there in 25 years, that it is said most of the men forget to go home to meals, and th* women forget to cook for those who do remember. It now looks as though there would be no celebration for July 4, as the other question is taking all the attention of those who in other years have arranged for the jollification. It's all because Harry Pickens started a saloon end was forced to close it after three days' business, as several of the citizens had it declared a nuisance. Pickens is inclined to fight and the battle promisee to be a long one. The Rifle Shooters. It 1B expected that Oapt. William B. Kalmback, of Co. B, will be among the first 15 men to be selected from the best rifle shots at the Michigan National Guard "shoot" at Bailey park, to represent them at Camp Perry. He has been the most consistent performer of the nine members of the Grand Rapids battalion, who have now, at the close of the preliminary round, a score of 248. Lieut. W. H. Comboy, of Cheboygan, who made the record score of the first day's shooting, also was high score man of yesterday, making nine out of 10 bullseyes at 800 yards. The elimination trials have been completed and all except the highest 35 men will be dropped. This leaves out, as well, those who did not succeed in running up a score of 248 for the preliminaries. Damage by Cloud Burst. Breaking over Grand Rapids with a tremendous crash of thunder, early Saturday night, the worst cloudburst the city has seen In 20 years wrought havoc with basements and street pavements. Three inches of water fell inside of an hour, breaking all local records for June, precipitation. Sewers backed up all over the city and overflowed the streets, the water rising as high as three and four feet In some of the lower districts of the west side. In some places passage was possible only by boat. Street cars were stalled, basements in all parts of the city flooded with two and three feet of water and much damage to property was done. A number of washouts have been reported on the steam roads leading to that city. A house was struck by lightning and a 6-foot hole torn in the building and a l"-year-old girl rendered unconscious by the lightning bolt. A Great Shake. Because ho came in contact with a fcirc carrying about 450 volts of electricity, Irf-n Haley, of Flint, will have some dentlRt work done. Three gold fillings which were in his teeth dropped out when he received the "Jolt." Besides this, Haley complaint* of severe pains in his stomach and a bad burn across the nock, but physicians say there will be no serious effects from the experience. The body ot Harold Laxey, the 10- year-okl boy who was drowned in Thread creek, near Flint, Saturday night, was recovered Sunday morning.

A NIGHT OF WILD ORGIES The Case Has Many Remarkable and Mysterious Features and Some •hocking Details. Following the news of the murder of Slsie Slgel, by tha Chinaman Leon Ling in his room in New York, with he ghastly details, comes that of Mrs. Gilbert Wood ill in the Broad Creek bungalow, near Easton, M<L, of Robert B. Eastman, a fugitive broker. There la a mystery about the life ol the woman whose husband is ill in Los Angelea. She had told friends that she was born in Minneapolis about 20 rears ago. Her mother, who -aalled herself Mrs. Amw, died when she was about S yaars of age, leaving her in utter ignorance of her parentage or forbears. Mrs. Charles H. Thompson, of Mc- Daniel, Md.. then took her and brought her up, telling her that she (Mrs. Thompson) was her mother's intimate friend, but never disclosing to her the name of her father. When she was about 12 years of age they went to Washington, where they lived for some time in the house of Lyman J. Gage, who took a great interest in her. When she was^ibout 15 he sent her, with Mrs. Thompson, to Paris, where she studied ^ t f s l c , Mr. Gage paying all expenses. $ * ?. . On her return from Paris she went to Boston to complete her rtudiee.and while in Boston aho was married i o a Mr. Caswell, who was an osteopath. Wheft she was about 17 she came to Baltimore to continue her studies at the Peabody conservatory, leaving her husband. She was known here as Miss Edith Thompson, concealing her marriage from all but a few intimate friends. In a very short time there* after she entered suit against Dt.< Caswell for a divorce. She left Baltimore on Easter a year ago, being engaged- at the time to Harry Adams, of Mount Vernon, N. Y, After a brief stay in New York she went to California, where in less than 30 days after her divorce from' Dr. Oaewelt, she married Gilbert Woodill, of Los Angeles. It has also been rumored that in her early youth Charles Thompson, the eon of her fostermother and father,, being a rejected suitor, committed suicide on her account. During her residence fn Baltimore' Mr. Gago sent her checks continually/ some of them amounting to $1,500, and When she was married to Mr. Woodill, he gave her $5,000. At the timVtfc b r e a t h : ; Ifr^tlM&WWr w\w building her a house in LoavAngelee, with the understanding that.he was tor come to live with her and her husband. All of these facts, it is asserted; were stated by Mrs. Woodill to friends in Baltimore prior to her death. There was a wild orgie at Eastman's bungalow, participated In by men and gay women, a debauch 1n which drunk' enness was a prominent features fol-t lowed by the murder of Mrs. Woodill undoubtedly by Eastman, who had induced, her to join the party, his purpose being robbery. That be was guilty his suicide just as he was to be taken into custody plainly indicates. It is practically an established fact that "Lame Bob" Eastman murdered the protege of Lyman J. Gage, Edith May Thompson Woodill, with, his own hands, robbing the dead WcV man of a large-amount of money and jewelry and planned cunningly • to throw the crime on New.York frtenda who knew him in his prosperous days and visited him Saturday a week ago. Eastman's intricate scheme to involve others- and save his own neck If possible Is being exposed hour by hour. There was a gay party at Eastman's bungalow, on the shore of Broad creek, where he hid tor five months from the New York police, but every scrap of information that the police of three statea can gather points to the fact that Eastman was alone with young Mrs. Woodill when she came to her death. The very cunning the crooked broker used to cover the girl's death Is being analyzed bit by bjt, every lie, trick and stratagem Indicating that Eastman alone was guilty. Murderer's History. Robert E. Eastman, known as 'Lame Bob," failed In the brokerage business in New York last year, was arrested twice in Chicago last August for grand larceny, and since that time has been a fugitive from justice. "Wall street never witnessed a more complete ruin than I," Eastman Is quoted as saying In New York. Vinnie Bradcombe, the woman to whom Eastman wrote his version of the tragedy at St. Michaels, admits that she was Eastman's wife. The young woman lives with Tier mother and sister.

In connection with It more than a dozen members of the imperial diet, includior representatives from all political parties, have been placed under arrest on the charge of receiving bribes. It appears 'hat these men accepted enormous sums of money from the directors of the Dai Nippon Sugar'company on condition that they, as members of the imperial diet, would undertake to Induce the government to grant rebates and monopolies to the sugar company. Money belonging to the shareholders to the extent of hundreds of thousands were paid in bribes to the politicians; but the government finally rejected the scheme, and only when it fell through and the Dal Nip^ pon Sugar company was lejft practically bankrupt, did the unpleasant revelations come to light WIRfcLETS.

CHAPTER VI—Continued. Along the south side of the cliff the sea extended in twice aa far aa on the north. From the end of the talus the coast trended off four or five miles to the Bouth-southweet In a shallow bight, whose southern extremity was hounded by a second limestone headland. This ridge ran Inland parallel to the first, and from a point some little distance back from, the shore was covered with a growth of leafless trees. Between the two ridges lay a plain, open along the shore, but a short distance inland covered with a jungle of tall yellow grass, above which, here and there, rose the tops of scrubby, leafless treeB and the graceful crests of slender-shafted palms. Blake's attention was drawn to the latter by that feeling of artificiality which their exotic appearance so often wakens in the mind or the northernbred man even after long residence in the tropics. But in a moment he tamed away with a growl. "More of thoBe darned feather-dusters!" He was* not looking for palms. The last ragged bit of cloud, with Its showery accompaniment, drifted past before the breeze which followed the squall, and the end of the storm was proclaimed by a deafening chorus of squawks and screams along the hfg&er ledges of the cliff. Staring upward, Blake for the first time observed that the face of the cliff swarmed with aeafowl. "That's luck!" he muttered. "Guess I haven't forgot how to rob nests. Bet our fine lady'll shy at sucking them raw,! All the same, she'll have to if I don't run across other rock than this, poor girl!" He advanced again along the talus, and did not stop until he reached the sand beach. There he halted to make a careful examination, not only of the loose debris, but of the solid rock above. Finding no sign of flint or quartz, he growled out a curse and backed off along the beach to get a view of the cliff top. From a point a little beyond him, outward to the extremity of the headland, he could see that the upper ledges and the crest of the cliff, as well, were fairly crowded with seafowl and their nests. His smile of satisfaction broadened when he glanced inland and saw, less than half a mile distant, a wooded cleft which apparently ran up to the summit of the1 ridge. From a point near the top a gigantic Baobab tree towered up against the skyline like a BTobdlngnagian cabbage. "Say, we may hav« a run money, after all," be murmur** "Shade, and no end of grub, and, by the green of those trees, a spring-— limestone water at that Next thing, III find a flint!" He slapped his leg, and both sou *d and feeling reminded htm that his clothes were drenched. "Guess we'll wait about that flint." he sard, and be made for a clump of thorn scrub a little way inland. Aa the tall grass did not grow here within a mile of the shore, there was nothing to obstruct him. The creeping r. I ants which during the rainy season Blake walked around the clump to the shadJgit-alde, and begjua ta> stsif. In quiek sacce*fio» one g*rm*Ot after another was flung across a branch where th«-eun would strike i t Last of alt, th* shoes were emptied of rainwater and setaout to dry. Wltfcoot « pause, he Chen gave himself a quick, light rub-down, Just sufficient to invigorate the SHA without starting the perspiration. Physically the man was magnificent. His muscles were wiry and compact, rather tbau bulky, and aa be moved, they played beneath his white skin with the smoothness and ease of a tiger's. After the rub-down he squatted on his heels and spent some time trying to bend his palm-leaf hat back mtp shape. When he had placed this also out In the sun he found himself beginning to yawn. The dry, jnltry air had made him droway. A touch with his bare toot -showed him that the sand beneath the' thorn bush had already absorbed the rain and offered a dry surfaces He glanced around, drew his club nearer and stretched himself out for a nap. CHAPTER Vill. The Club Age. T was past two o'clock when •the sun, striking in where Blake lay outstretched, began *•> scorch one of his lege. He stirred uneasily, and sat upright. Like a sailor, he was wide awake the moment he opened his eyes. He stood up and peered around through the half leafless branches. Dyer the water thousands of gulls and terns, booblee and cormorants were skimming and diving, while above them a number of graceful frigate birds—those swart, scarlet-throated pirates of the air—-hung poised, ready to swoop down and rob the weaker birds of" their fish. All about the headland and the surrounding water was life in1 fullest action. Even from., where he stood Blake could hear the harsh c|amor, of the aeafowl. In marked contrast to this scene the plain waa apparently lifelessf When Blake -rose, a small brown lizard darted away across the sand. Other- "You Beastly Cad!" wise there was neither sight nor sound of a living creature. Blake pondered this as he gathered his clothes into the shade and began to dress. "Looks like the siesta. is the allround style in this God-forsaken hole," he grumbled. "Haven't seen so much as a rabbit, nor even one land bird. May be a drought—no; must be the dry season— Whee, these things are hot! I'm thirsty as a shark. Now, where's that softy and her ladyship? 'Fraid she's in for a tough time!" He drew Oft his shoes with a jerk, growled at their stiffness, and, club in band, stepped clear of the brush to look for his companions. The first glance along the foot of the cliff showed him Wlnthrope lying under the shade of the overhanging ledges, a few yards beyond the sand beach. Of Mlas Leslie there was no sign. Half alarmed by thia, Blake started for the beach with his swinging stride. Winfor oorfthrope was awake, and on Blake's ap- •>oach, sat up to greet him. ••Wello!" he called. "Where have ran been all this time?" * "'Sleep. Where's Miss Leslie?" "She's around tue point,1* Blake grinned mockingly. "Indeed! ll'tt. I fawncy she won't be for long." He would have passed on, but Wintrope stepped before him. "Don't go out there, Blake," he protested. UI—ah—think It would be better if I went." "Why?" demanded Blake. Wlnthrope hesitated; but an impatient movement by Blake forced an answer: "Well, yos> remember, this marniag; ieWog n t to* dry our clothe*" T e a ; 1 remember/'-said Blake, "8o yon want to aarye aa lady's valetr Wmthrapeys plnmp face tamed a sfeklytyellows ••»'*> **>u. .<,.-..-. «»1—ah~vaJet?-*What do you mean, air? I protest—1 do not understand you!" he stammered. But i s the midst, catching eight of Blaks's bewildered stare, be suddenly flushed crimson, and buret oat in uareatrelned anger: "You—you bounder—you beaatly cad! Any mail with an ounce of decency—" Blake uttered a Jeering laugh— "Wow! Hark, how the British lion r<r-ro-ar» when, hia. tail's twisted!" "Ton beaatly cad!" repeated the Englishman, now purple with rage, Blake-* unpleasant pleasantry gave place to a scowl. HJs iaw tbjrust out like a bulldog's, and he bent towards Wiathrope with a menacing look. For a moment the Englishman faced him, sustained by his anger. But there waa a steely light in Blake's eyes that he could not withstand. Winthrope'a defiant stare wavered and fell. « e shrank baek, the color fast ebbing from his cheeks. "Ugh!" growled Blake. "Guess yon won't blat any more about cads! You damned hypocrite! Maybe I'm not on to how you've been hanging around Mlas Leslie Just because she's an heiress. Anything is fair enough for you swells. But let a fellow so much as open his mouth about your exalted set, and it's perfectly dreadful, you know!" He paused for a reply ^ Winthrope only drew back a atep farther and eyed him with a furtive, sidelong glance. ThiB brought Blake back to his mocking jeer. "Youll learn, Pat, me b'y. There's lota of thlngsll show up different to you before we get through this picnic. For one thing, I'm boss here—president, congress and supreme court. Understand?" <cBy what right, may I ask?w marmured Wlnthrope. "Right!** 'answered Slake." "That hasn't anything to do with the question— it's might. Back In civilized parts your little crowd has the drop on my big crowd and runs things to suit themselves. But here we're sOrt of reverted to primitive society. This happens to be the Cinb Age and I'm the Man with the Big Stick. See?" "I myself sympathise with the lower classes, Mr. Blake. Above all, I think it barbarous the way they punish one who is forced by circumstances to appropriate part of the ill-gotten gains of tbe rich upstarts. But do you believe, Mr. Blake, that brute strength—**• "You bet! Now shut up. Where're the cocoanuts?" Wlnthrope picked up two nuts and handed them over. "There were only five," he explained. "All right. I'm no captain of industry." "Ah, true; you said we had reverted to barbarism," rejoined Wlnthrope, venturing an attempt at sarcasm. "Lucky for yon!" retorted Blake. "But where's Miss Leslie aft this time? Her clothes must have dried hours ago." "They did. We had luncheon together just this side of the point." "Oh, you did! Then why shouldn't I go for her?" "I—I—there waa a shaded pool around the point, and she thought a dip in the salt water would refresh her. She went not more than half au hour ago." "So that's it. Well, while I eat you go and call her—and say, you keep this side the point. I'm looking out for Miss Leslie now." Wlnthrope hurried away, clenching his fists and almost weeping with impotent rage. Truly, matters were now very different from what they had been aboard ship. Fortunately he had not gone a dozen steps before Miss Leslie appeared around the corner of the cliff. He' was scrambling along over the loose stones of the slope without the slightest consideration for his ankle. The girl, more thoughtful, waved to him to wait for her where he was. As she approached, Blake's frown gave place to a look that made his face positively pleasant. He had already drained the cocoanuts; now he proceeded to smash the shells into small bits, that he might eat the meat, and at the same time keep his gaze on the girl. The cliff foot being well shaded by the towering wall of rock, she had taken off his coat and was carrying it on her arm; so that there was nothing to mar the effect of her dainty openwork waist, with its elbow sleeves and graceful collar and the filmy veil of lace over the shoulders and bosom. Her skirt had been washed clean by the rain, and she had managed to stretch it into shape before drying. Refreshed by a nap In the forenoon and by her salt-water dip, she showed more vivacity than at any time that Wlnthrope could remember during their acquaintance. Her suffering during and since the storm had left its mark in the dark circles beneath her hazel eyes, but this in no wise lesaened their brightness; while the elasticity of her step showed that she had quite recovered her well-bred ease and grace of movement. She bowed and smiled to the two Sen,. impartuUy. '^Good-afternoon, HteaCfo.yejp, Miss, Laa**1 »»' spcndW Blelce,'.staring, at teer with frank admiration. "You look fresh as a daisy.". Genial and sincere aa wag his tone, the familiarity jarced on her sensitive ear. She colored as she turned from him. **Is there anything new, Mr. Wlnthrope?" she asked. "I'm afraid not, Mies Otnevleve. Like ourselves, Blake took a nap." "Yea; but Blake first took a squint at the scenery. Just see if you've got everything, and fix your hats. We'll be in the sun for half a mile or so. Better get on the coat, Mlas Leslie. It's hotter than yesterday." 1 "Permit me." said Wlnthrope. Blake watched while the English, man held the coat for the girl and rather fussily raised the collar about her neck and turned back the sleeves, which extended beyonu the tips of her fingers. The American's face was stolid; but his glance took in every little look and act of his companions. He was not altogether unversed in the ways of good society, and it seemed to him that the Englishman was somewhat overassiduous in his attentions. "All ready, Blake," remarked Wlnthrope, finally, with a last lingering touch. "'Bout time!" grunted Blake. "You're fussy as a tailor. Got the flask and cigarette case and the knife?" "All safe, sir—er—all safe, Blake." "Then you two follow me slow enough not to worry that ankle. I don't want any more of the pack-mule in mine." "Where are we going, Mr. Blake?** exclaimed Miss Leslie. "You will not leave us again!" "It's only a half-mile, Miss Jenny. There's a break in the ridge. I'm going on ahead to find if it's hard to climb." "But why should be, climb?" "Food, for one thing. You see, this end of the cliff is covered with seabirds. Another thing, I expect to strike a spring." "Oh, I hope you do! The water in the rain pools is already warm." (TO BE CONTINUED.) ACCORDING TO ALL PRECEDENT. STILL LOOKIriS POR LrGHT.

"Then," said the teller of the thrilling war story, "the intrepid general swung himself on his trusty steed." The listeners leaned forward. "And plunged through fire and smoke onward where duty called him." The suspense began to grow breathless. "About him scores of men dropped dead or wounded." The suspense finished growing breathless. "But still he galloped onward, erect and fearless. At last he reached the front ranks. He waved his sword. With a wild cheer the shattered ranks closed up. Led by that intrepid man, they advanced. Everywhere the enemy gave way before him. The day was won. He had snatched victory from defeat" "I beg your pardon," remarked one of the audience. "'How's that?" "You mean from 'the jaws of defeat/ don't you?" "I do. You are quite right I thank you for the correction." And the stickler for correctness in metaphor leaned back in his chair, well satisfied with himself. ACT AS SPUR TO MAN'S PRIDE. Love and Belief Are Powerful Agents for Reformation. Love and belief in a man can never hurt him. It will always act as a spur to his pride, which is invariably close to a man's love, whilst it has little or nothing to do with a woman's. Even when the schoolboy falls in love with the little girl in pinafores, his first instinct is to acquit himself in her eyes in some magnificent way —to knock out some other boy, or Intimidate a foe. This instinct remains with men until they die, just as girls from the cradle or inspired by love seek beauty to appear lovely in the eyes of their adorers. And the masculine pride and prowess and strength are what the wise girl will use in her desire to reform some man who is merely weak. Nagging drives such men into the depths. Every look of derision, snub, insult sinks the iron deeper into their souls.—Exchange. Now H e Could Die Satisfied. The dying Englishman laughed, faintly and reservedly, as became his race. "What ails the man?" asked the vicar, the heir, the younger son in the army, the younger son in the church, the keeper of the lodge and the stolid barrister. "It is the joke he heard in America in his youth," whispered the nurse. "He has just grasped the significance." Fear God; fight lo a finisn.

"When my little girl was six months old I noticed small red spots on her right cheek. They grew so large that I sent for the doctor but, instead of helping the eruption, his ointment seemed'to make it worse. Tben I went to a second doctor who said it waa eczema. He also gave me an ointment which did not help either. The disease spread all over the face and the eyes began to swelL Tbe itching grew intolerable and it was a terrible sight to see. I consulted doctors for months, but they; were unable to cure the baby. I pai£ out from 120 to ISO without relief. One evening I began to use the Cuticura Remedies.

"I don't want to be dressed up/' Mary wae beginning ln a still greater outburst .of revolt, when she was interrupted by a new arrival-—a thin girl with bright blue eyes audi bright red hair, who dashed around tba corner of the verandahs*, if it weren't a very hot third of July indeed, and die hottest part ofJ the afternoon. •**'"'" "Oh, Mary!" cried the red-haired tfrL ? \ .'•'• '- ;"*•> * "Oh; Bunny!" cried Maryy "have fou heard about It? These hateful boys aren't going to let us be In the races. They say they, don't want girls on the program, at all, And with our records, too!'' "Who told youf demanded Bunny. "Tom," said Mary. That settled it. The news was evidently authentic, for Tom was Mary's brother, and both girls knew his word was not to be doubted. Besides, he was chairman of the committee on Fourth of July sports, which the boys of Douglaston were going to held at the village school grounds. An admission, of 26 asnta for grown-ups and ten cents for* Children was to be charged, and with the proceeds new suits were to be bought for the junior ball team. Of course, in some places the girls wouldn't have thought of having a, part in so Important an event, but the girls of Douglaston and their summer Visitors were very fond of all sorts of sports, and Bunny and Mary were members, of a small group of girls who had com.eJftom big schools where athletics and.gymnastic work were a most Important part of the course. Consequently> they felt deeply aggrieved at being debarred from participating in £ne iourth sports. "And it would be much more interesting if they had aV least one girls' race," wailed Mary, bursting forth again with ' her complaint. "Everybody Is always more interested in girls' events than in boys. I'm sure more people would go." Bunny suddenly sprang into the air and began) clapping her hands in the Wildest fashion. "Mary, you're a dear, tf dear^'she cried. "I've thought of something and we'll do it, too. Bring your gym bloomers and come over to my house right after tea and tell Susie and Evelyn. I'll tell the rest of the girls." > "There, now,* said Aunt Mary, "what ia that child going to do?" "I do&'t know, but Bunny does. Bunny's found a way," carolled Mary Joyously-, and she.ran gayly off to look up her .gymnasium suit On Fourth of July morning the boyB of Douglaston had a surprise. Tom Mason, Mary's brother, saw it first It was a banner—a large white banner, which was swung across the main.street from the post office to the principal grocer's opposite. Tom approached it curiously. On it he read this Wend: I'M • • ' • GIRLS' FOURTH OF JULY SPORTS. T^tAa afternoon, between the hours of-two and Ave o'clock the girl* of bottfflaaton will compete ln racing, jumping and basketball on Judge Evans* meadow. Admission 2S cent* for adults, 10 cents for children. tt( LEMONADE FREE. own sister waa twining a hurdle with red, white and blue garlands.' "And they're going to do it up fancy like girls do," groaned Tom to Johnny a few momenta later, in reference to the paper garlands. "They'll get all the crowd," said Johnny dolefully. "Sure-, thing," acquiesced Tom. "Judge Evans' man had a dosen banners to put up, and everybody'll see them." "There's only one thing in our favor," he declared, "and that is the openness of the meadow. Anybody can see the races there without paying admission, and, of course, some people will be mean enough to do it So.if they want to make money they'll have a hard time, while, of course, there's a fence around our place. Not that that wiH do ua any good if the folka can And something else to see that's just as lively and that they don't have to pay for if they don't want to." "The only thing for us to do," said Johnny, firmly, "is to get all the fellows together." It waa rather a Bheepish lot of boys who later marched two by two up to the Evans place. The Evans meadow was by this time assuming a decidedly gala appearance, with ita abundance of flags and garlands flying from fence posts and,trees. Tom as leader of the opposition called a parley. His overtures were reaponded to with suitable reluctance by Bonny aa queen of the Am axons. "You know," said Tom, "you only asked for one obstacle race, and we're willing to let you girle have half the events if you'll only combine with us. You can't make much money here, anyway. You can only keep us from making any at all, and we'll give you half the proceeds." Now there was one very good thing about Bunny, which waa that she knew when to make concessions. So she hesitated only long enough to tell the other girls that they ought really to forgive the boys, and then she straightway sent the judge's man to tack the following addendum to the white bannera: "The girls' sports will be held in combination with the boys' at jthe school field." And the girls didn't take advantage of Tom's offer, either, for they didn't really want half the events. All that they wanted was a fair representation on the straightaway races and an opportunity of enjoying that fascinating sport, the obstacle race. They didn't make quite as good time as the boys, for, after all, boys are pretty good at some things, but when Grandniece Mary came in in the lead of all the girls after having undergone the perilous adventures of the high fence, the fence to be crawled under, the low fence, the hurdle and the barrel with both ends out, even Grandaunt Mary dropped her knitting bag in her excitement and Bald she wished they had done such things when she was a girl.

NDEPENDENCE d a y, 1909». sees blood-stained, historic Valley Forge f; restored* and not only restored, but greatly beautified, improved, and turned into a public park for the enjoyment of the people. It Is a fortunate thing t h a t the time has passed when the pilgrim to Valley Forge ln search of Bight* and relics of the historic camp* perhaps the most hallowed of our revolutionary reminders, waa obliged to tramp over fields of none too friendly farmers and be constantly an? noyed by signs warning off trespassera. Apart from which, the fatigue of such a trip waa great, aa there were no roads leading over the camp ground and no signs marking the way to the historic spots, only fields of waving grain or woodlands over* grown with underbrush.. Consequent* ly the hardest kind of walking over the steep hills waa required to view but a few of the sights. Through the untiring efforts of a number of patriotic men, all this has been changed and the state of Pennsylvania has been induced to assume and complete a task which waa first offered and refused by the federal government, although the undertaking was clearly within its province, as the camp ground of Valley Forge is a relic which should belong not only to Pennsylvania, but to the entire nation, aa every patriotic American must wish for ita preservation and would feel proud in being part owner. But whether by Pennsylvania or the national government, It must be at least gratifying to the nation to learn that the neglect of a century has been atoned for, and under the able and enthusiastic direction of the Valley Forge Park commission, a work of almost incalculable historical value has been done on the bleak heights above the Schuylkill, to which Washington's barefoot army crawled when the defeat of Germantown left them no other refuge. Fort Washington and Fort Huntington have been restored. An iron tower 105 feet in height for observation purposes is being finished on Mount Joy, and from this tower not only a birdseye view of the entire camp ground and beautiful surrounding country can be had, but also Philadelphia, 20 miles distant, can be made out. A beautiful commemorative chapel of the Episcopal churoh has been built on the spot where Washington, in his direst hour of distress, knelt ln prayer. The headquarters of •the commander ln the Isaac- Potts house have been purchased, completely restored and turned into a revolutionary museum. Roads have been built which make possible quick communication between all points of the park, besides which, lawns and flower beds have been laid out and planted and even a guard house haa been bnilt to further heighten the park effect.

Booder, beginning (b recover his spirits. "tfttult, Sir, Intuit.** ing but a hamper. I hope you"—turning to Mr. Booder—"can see in it somethingjoagond.. tha materia)." Mr. Booder advanced to the side of the wicker elephant and • peered within. "I can't, ma'am," he, confessed, shamefacedly; "there ain't anything In it I can see, not even materials." He continued gazing dejectedly into the bowels of the hamper. If estheticlsm can snort, that low word would best describe the sound of disgust with which Mrs. Blander faxored Mr. Booder. "Are men but clods?" she cried. "Does intuition play no part with you? IntuH, sir, intuit!" , v. Such was the commanding presence of strong-minded Mrs. Blander and the obedient servility of weak-minded My. Booder, that in the twinkling of an eye,, and before Mr. Booder himself knew what he was doing; he had leaped over the side of* the hamper and was meekly gazing out at his ressolute customer. • Clarissa showed herself not altogether devoid of humor and sniggered painfully; but Mrs. Blander was sensitive and silenced her by a glance. "What do you mean," she inquired, "behaving in this fashion? Come out at once and explain your conduct." Mr. Booder clambered out of the Parthenon and answered, defiantly: "You told me to do it." "I did nothing of the kind" contradieted Mrs. Blander in her most-positive manner. "I'll leave It to the young lady if W h a t Not to Read.' But admirable as is the effort to mark' the best, it i s not HgnsUMtft method of charting the vast s e n W n ? erature.

It seemvwtrtttge that those who are interested in the study of literary style have not given more attention to the work of compiling lists of the hundred worst books. Here is a fascinating fletd for dif ference of opinion; and the debates can be carried on without acrimony. There is something unseemly in the controversies over the comparative merits of Shakespeare and Bernard Shaw, especially when, for chronological reasons, Bernard Shaw must have the last word. It is different when two deservedly obsenre writers contend amiably for the lowest seat. No ill-feeling can be provoked when each bows to the other and says: "After you."—S. M.

[Copyright, 1908, by American Pr«u AMOciation. J Several brides were telling each othoi where and how they first met their husbands. Finally one told her expert ence in a story as follows: "Last summer," she said, "we spent as usual at our place, Ferncliff, in the mountains. We had a house full of gueBts, as usual, and one of the men- I consider it a breach of confidence for any plrl to revojil the name of a suitor, so I will call him Mr. Beach was devoted to me." "I see." remarked the other, "yon wish to conceal the denouement. To call your lover by his real name would spoil your story. Go on." "I liked Mr. Bench very much, but he seemed rather prosaic. I wished for something more showy. Mothpr said that a practical man would wear better than a showy one, and I have found since my marriage th«t she was right." "Oh, dear, why dirtn't you make it more of a mystery?" "One day n circus came to town We young people agreed that wc Would attend a performance, and all went to the tent in a body. W» climbed the board seats to a convenient height, sitting In a bunch, Mr. Beach being beside me. We wer* much too early for the show, but en joyed ourselves watching the country people come in. Near us a young fei low was arranging his wares, consisting of popcorn cakes As soon as hp had them laid out on his table, or. rather, board, he took up some packages and, holding up one, passed around the ring, dragging one leg after the other, the way circus peoplo do, drawling: '"These celebrated popcorn cake* are made of popcorn grown in the vale of Cashmere under the glow of the radiant facet of the most beautiful women of the world. Only 5 cents J» package. Warranted fresh and lus clous to the taste.' " 'What do you know about the vale of Cashmere?' called Mr. Beach, buy. ing a package of the popcorn. •" 'Mother's got n hook of poems by a Mickey called Tom Moore.' said thifellow, handing up the change. And he strutted on with, 'Here's your celebrated popcorn cakes grown on the fertile plains of Palestine,' etc. "The audience began to guy him good naturediy, but he smiled at any one doing so with a bewitching smile. Indeed, every one was watching him and wondering where next bis celebrated popcorn would come from. Be continued his rounds till there was n flourish of haU u dozen dingy brass instruments, and the performance commenced. cousin, Adele Perkins. But before asking to be treated as a guest I will explain that tbe company of performers you saw today are all fellow students of mine at college. They need what they make In this manner to enable them to pursue their studies. I. on the contrary, have been born with a silver spoon in my mouth. .But 1 am a practical chap, and my father, being of the same mind as myself, pre: fers that I shall work my Way through college as a preparation for tbie duties that are expected to fall to me when I have finished my education* I bave therefore joined my chums as - popcorn seller and make bold to say that I keep Hp my end of the profits.' "My dear, yOn can imagine my astonishment at hearing this bowling swell tell how he came to be a^ member of a circus company. I invited him to dinner, but he declined because if he accepted he would be too lete for the evening performance. After dinner 1 returned to my room, feigning a headache, and, toting a maid, slipped out a back door and went to tbe.circus. We had ban;, got seated when the popcorn solkv strutted by.

Since that MClent t ^ . * h j » n erring Antony wandered after ^Ug^t; love the elusive tnd suspicious blo*d4 Jaai menaced the quiet home of <w<W|j|'sj||jP man. It muat be assumed, affWTVi that Antony knew nothtBk ot ttojgi***, else the Roman senate was sadly deficient All those since who have indulged in the cup that cheers have been wiser in their generation than that New York benedict recently accused of non* support by a wife expert in the reading'of tea-dreg mysteries. The evidence was so patent that the guilty wretch sought no other defease than a quarrel. With sheer masculine strategy, which is alleged to have included cleaning out the house, he barred the door against his subtle feminine half, says the Washington Post. Whereupon came the airing of these things before that most unsensitive of persons—the local magistrate —a low-brow who would not accept the testimony of a cup "turned three times slowly with a wish." The brute sided with the man, of course. The result achieved by such a^ dispensation of justice is not one to be desired. The domestic war has subsided to a feigned peace—a sort of armed neutrality. Such well-founded suspicion will never die. The only thing proved by it is that men will hang together, unless it be that there are those who should bar Oolong from the home. Moral: Use a strainer. The unwarrantable criticism of the duke of Norfolk which arose fn shine quarters when it was announced that he had sold his famous Holbein—a portrait of Queen Christina of Denmark— and that the painting would go out of England, is now silenced. The criticism was unwarranted because the picture belonged to the duke and he had given the National gallery an option on it which was not used, says the Troy Times. It appears that the purchaser of the Holbein is not an American, but a German, and that the price paid is |300,000. Very well, the duke received a round figure, which would have tempted many another man to part with a scrap of canvas. The action of the duke which shuts the mouths of his critics is his gift of a park to the city of Sheffield. The property covers 60 acres and is the only park In the city. It is worth more than the duke received for the picture. The fortune of $5,000,000 which was acquired by Christopher Ma#ee, politician and newspaper publisher of Pittsburg, who passed away several years ago, has been released by his wife's death and will now go to the ultimate purpose for which it was devised by its accumulator—the foundation and maintenance of a hospital for women. The institution is to bear the «ame of the testator's mother, Elizabeth Steel Magee. One of its features will be a department for women in distress, who are to receive free treatment at all times and be asked no questions. "Chris" Magee did not escape sharp criticism while alive, but even the most inveterate of those who were his political enemies must admit the excellence of the great purpose to which he saw fit to apply his money. The April Are loss in the United States *and Canada amounted to 119,- 345,300, making an aggregate of $72,- 006,700 for the first quarter of 1909. Compared with the two years last past this shows a better state of things,, which, it is hoped, may continue. The fire loss for the first four months Abt 1908 was $90,804,000, and for the corresponding period of 1907, 186,426,200. m*mn*T*m**m THE»11 An old inmate of an almshouse in New York, aged 86, who had never in the course of her life seen an automobile before, fell in a dead faint in the street when one whizzed by her, with the horn tooting. When she recovered she told the doctor who had attended her that she had been in hell and had seen Satan. Some of the victims of the speed maniacs would not quarrel with her diagnosis of the situation. The truth is the young man who said the education he got. at Yale was a "detriment" to him didn't get any there. The "detriment" came from fooling away his time at Yale instead of doing Yale work. We trust that the coming aeroplane of commerce will learn to emit a prettier noise than "Honk!" THE MILAN TRAdtOY VltWftO BY THE WIDOW WITH GLADNESS. MAY ESCAPE PUNISHMENT State Treasury is Short of Funds Again and Institutions Will bs Very Hard Up. Through an interpreter, Wednesday, Mrs. Pallet, wife of the man slain la Milan Tuesday night by John Mascaras, the BUgar beet worker, who was found in the Paltcz home, told the police that she is glad her husband Is dead. She said she was afraid of him and thought he would kill her. She also claimed that he killed a man in the old country and had served time for it there. She refused to bury the body, and a brother and sister of the dead man will take it to Detroit for burial. Mascaros is still in University hospital, Ann Arbor, and the physicians state that he has a good chance for recovery, although they have not yet been able to locate the bullet in his back. He told the physicians he used to board at the Palicz home in Delray and the trouble started there over a year ago. He says he shot in self defense and the prosecutor declares he probably will not be held for the death of Palicz. State T r e a s u r y 8hy. The state treasury is short of funds. There are now $300,946.67 left In the general fund, but as the new fiscal year begins Thursday, and as there are a number :of appropriations forthcoming for prisons and asylums, it is expected they will take nearly all of this sum. The loan of $E50,000 authorized by the legislature has not yet been made, however, but notwithstanding this it is expected that from now till the middle of January, there, will be a large shortage. The question which confronts the treasury officials is how to remedy the matter. It is figured that by the time the taxes begin to oome In, in January, the deficit will be almost a million. Looks D a r k for Depositors. At the investigation into the affairs of the defunct bank of Ironwood progresses, the situation looks worse for the depositors and no better for the accused officials of the Institution. Large quantities of securities held by the bank are said to be practically without value, and it is estimated that no less than $600,000 of the depositors' cash was spent In the purchase of almost worthless paper. President H. P. Jahn and Assistant Cashier George Braddow, put under arrest by a deputy United States marshal, have secured their release under bonds of 125,000 and $10,000 respectively. Cashier £. T. Lawson, however, whose bond was placed at $60.- 000 found more difficulty in getting it and was paroled in the custody of the marshal while he Is hunting for bondsmen. The men who are checking up the securities of the Institution assert that the completion of the work will^be followed by some startling revelations in regard to the management of the bank. Costs Some Money. Friday the secretary of state's department was shipping to each member of the house of representatives 100 copies of the Michigan manual, and to each senator 200 copies. The department is obliged to pay cartage tnd freight on these shipments, amounting to a large sum. Deputy Secretary of State Mears dug up an old, forgotten Btatute which permits the department to draw $300 to pay express and freight bills, and is using this amount to help get the legislators their literature. Critics of the legislature point to 'the fact that with a decrepit general fund, now is the time for the members to be really self-sacrificing, and notify the department of state to hold the books for awhile. They have scant hopes, however, that this will he done when they remember the accounts turned In for extra pay during the recent session. Saloontsta Sued. Two Grand Rapids women have started $10,000 damage suits against saloonkeepers of the county. Mrs. Georgia De Clopper asks that Ohas. W. Baker, of Byron Center, and Anton Bieber, of North Dorr, give her that amount, because, she alleges, they sold liquor to her husband, and he later was struck by a L/ake Shore train and lost all the fingers of his right hand, besides sustaining severe cuts about the head. Mrs. Jessie Evans RayR that on January 25, 1909, after she had posted notices with them and other saloonlsti not to sell him liquor, Orin Lake and John Hart, of Cedar Springs, furnished whisky to Claude Emmons, her son, and the latter either fell or laid down on the G. R. AY I. tracks and was killed by a train.

Investigation by the Saginaw authorities has convinced them that Frederick Miller, whose dead body was found upon the street with a bullet wound through the temple, committed suicide while despondent at being afflicted with an incurable disease. He was the son of a Chesaning farmer. A drunken farm hand employed by William Morris, in New Haven township, drove the family Into the second floor of the house where they barricaded themselves while the drinkcrazed man was smashing furniture and dishes below. The Bheriff was telephoned for, and arrested the celebrant. When John Butler, of Menominee, running his new automobile with a party of friends aboard, lost control of the machine he became excited and put on more speed Instead of shutting it off.

The Detroit naval reserves will leave August 8 on their annual cruise on the Don J^uan de Austria.

It would seem that nature is determined to blot out these cities1, but recently two of the fairest in the world. While minor shocks have been of frequent occurrence in Sicily In the last six months, Wednesday night they became more serious and caused considerable alarm. The most severe quakes came at 7:20 and 7:26 Thursday morning, and were similar to the fatal disturbances of December, being accompanied by the roaring noises that added to the terror of that fateful night The population again fled in fear and cries of terror rent the arr. The people hurried to the..ppen places of the olty and the surrounding country, praying to the saints that their lives might be spared. It is as yet impossible accurately to determine the number of casualties. Some of the reports are alarming, but they cannot be verified. So far aa is positively known only a few people were hurt. One woman wa* killed by a falling wall and a child was seriously injured. Gradually, as the confidence of the people returned, Messina had acquired a population of something over 26,000, but today the people again are in terror and do not feel themselves safe, even in the temporary huts erected for their shelter. They lack food and covering and are camping ont under trees and in oaves in pitiful and desolate groups. Sailors, soldiers and policemen have been seat out through the district to prevent looting and give courage to the people. Between 8 o'clock last night and 7:20 o'clock this morning eight shocks were recorded and the instruments at the observatory have registered a total of 10 shocks of varying severity since 7:20. News received from the provinces indicates that some damage has been wrought there, but it is as yet impossible correctly to estimate the ex tent of the disaster. W a a Leon Drowned? That the body of a Chinaman found la the Hudson river last night is that of Leon Ling, the alleged murderer of Elsie Sigel, la affirmed by a reporter who viewed the body today In the Fordham morgue. "This is undoubtedly the body of Leon Ling," aaid the reporter. "I knew him well at Fort George all last summer. He was running a ping-pong game there. I recognize him partlc ularly by his hair and generally by his appearance. If I could see his teeth, I could make this identification doubly positive^t^Bave no doubt tliat this is Ling." In the effort to fully establish the identity of the corpse several other persons who. knew Leon well were taken to the morgue today and viewed the body, and if necessary, members of the Sigel family will be. asked to aid the police In this respect. The hight, weight, complexion and certain peculiarities of physical appearance of the dead man correspond with those attributed to Leon in life. The absence of clothing on the drowned man, except its undershirt, was. one of the baffling features of the case. That the body was absolutely nude when taken from the river indicates to the police that the Chinaman was not a suicide. Had he committed suicide, Capt. Carey contends, he would not have stripped himself of his clothing. The fact that the body was unclothed showed that there was an effort to prevent the identification. Sugar Trust Indictments. The American Sugar Refining Co., six of its directors and two other individuals were indicted by a federal grand jury in New York Thursday on a charge of conspiracy in restraint of trade in violation of the Sherman anti-trust law. The individuals indicted are Washington B. Thomas, president, and Arthur Donner, Chas. P. Senff and John E. Parsons, of New York; JoHn Mayer, of Morriatown, N. J., and Geo. H.

The late unpleasantness in the Little Tiger mountains has left Oklahoma with a war debt. Because the theft of a cow was the cause of the warpath venture of Chief Crazy Snake and the Marathon of Col. Roy V. Hoffman and 200 brave soldier lads over the Hickory Stamping Ground course, It is hoped that lawyers will be able to "construe the law" so that the horse thief appropriation may cover the deficit Col. Hoffman's unsuccessful excursion cost approximately $7,000. The governor has a military appropriation of $3,000. with which to defray the cost.

The THE SERVICEABLE COAT SUIT Many Points Which It Will Be Well to Remember When Making Your Selection. The girl who is choosing a service* able coat suit for everyday wear from now until October should regard these points: .,., . . . . , . „ . It is as old fashioned to cut off a coat half way - between the knees and hips as- between* knees and- ankles. Coats are single-breasted, rarely double- breasted. New models still show straight panel back*, which hang for several inches lower than the sides. These panels are also pointed as well as straight. Sleeves are still small and reach to the wrist, and many of them show flat, fitted cuffs. Three-button cutaway coats- are made in all materials. Re vers are often omitted. Flat triming is pirt around the neck and a Dutch collar of baby Irish lace Is added at the back. Sleeveless coats are being made up in summer materials, and they will prove quite comfortable in hot weather.

DOCTORS SAVE LIHLEFELLOW Lad ts Unconscious and Almost Pur pie, from fttramjulation When Finally Discovered Suspended from Limb of Tree. Atlanta, Ga.—An attempt to carry out a scene in a moving picture show, where a hanging occurred, came near proving fatal for Oirard Williams, aged six years, the little son of Mr. and Mrs. M. G. Williams the other aft-: ernoon, when he was left hanging te a tree by a strap fastened about his neck, in the back yard of his grandmother, Mrs. W- A. Williams, on Spring street When taken down, the little boy was blue in the face, every muscle was rigid and he was in an unconscious condition. Four physicians were hurriedly called, and after working heroically for two hours, the little fellow began to regain consciousness. With perfect quiet and rest, the physicians Btate, there is a good chance for his recovery. Glrard, together with his little brother and Philip Green, a neighbor's boy, all about the same age, were playing in the back yard of Mrs. Williams, the former children's grandmother, shortly after noon, when it was suggested, it is said, that they carry out the adventures of a man flashed upon the curtain of a moving picture theater. In this play the little boys had seen a man hung up to a tree by bis neck, and afterward cut down, without Buffering any evil effects. A tree, with inviting limb and a convenient coal house, is located in the back yard. All,that was needed was a rope or strap with which the experience of the man in the moving picture show could be Imitated. , The little fellows thought of a leather * v 9 HAT W e a l THEY THESE FOR iA . v to HatfMnlrtf s at '^Meetings! The Boys'Strung the Lad to a Tree. strap which they had seen in Mrs. Williams' house, and it was secured. Just who placed the strap about Glrard's neck and how he was suspended from the limb could not be learned. After leaving Glrard in his perilous position, the little brother and the little Green boy went into the house. "Where is Glrard, boys?" asked Miss Green, a sister of the little boy's father. "He is out In the back yard hanging to a tree!" was the innocent reply. With the gravest or fears. Miss Green and a servant rushed out of the house aid into the back yard. The sight that met their gase sent a thrill of horror through their minds. Glrard was tied so high that it was impossible to cut the strap, and the servant was compelled to break the limb, and let him down as tenderly ss possible. She then unbuckled the strap from about his neck. Girard was unconscious, his muss e s were rigid and his face was almost purple from strangulation. He was tenderly borne into the house and physicians were called. The little boy was still unconscious when the physicians arrived. Some bromide was administered, ice was placed about his head, and a vigorous mechanical massage was given, and the physicians succeeded in bringing Glrard back to consciousness. 8af* Bet.

The War Department has had its attention called recently to an unusual citizenship case. It is that of an enlisted man of the coast artillery coips. He came to this country in 1903, at which time he declared his intention of becoming a citizen of the United States and gave his residence as Brooklyn, N. Y. He enlisted in the army and since 1904 has been employed on a vessel engaged in planting mines. The vessel is now at San Francisco where he applied for completion of his naturalization, but the application was denied on the ground that service on a mine planter could not be considered residence in the United States.

DiUer, Nebr., Juue29,Q9 F. L. And rows, Piaokaey, Mich. Dear Sir: * Enclosed pisase find the owl yon baye been looking for, and by obserymg date of draft, ybu wilt notice that it was my intention to remit some time ago. We are well and enjoying this "good old summer time." I tell you, F. U, that things look mighty good to us in this section. And why should it not? Some months ago I read the result of investigation and analysis ot the soil ot all the agricultural sections of tbe earth, in wbioh tbe statement was made that the South Piatt region in Nebraska has tbe most fertile and productive soil. The county in which we live is in the heart of the South Platte region. And further, reports from every section of our state today without exception, indicate the most productive and prosperous year this state has ever known. I wish you could see the farms which about SO years ago, cost the settlers S2.50 an acre. Little of this today can be bought for less than $100 an acre, most of tbe farms can not be touched for the latter sum. Two weeks ago I passed .the finest 80 acre field of wheat I ever 6aw. The entire section, said a neighboring farmer without a* building on it, and without fences, except two barbed wires around each 80 acres, wonld sell for 9140 an acre; and e van at that figure he said, the land wonld pay for itself, with the crops it raises in 6 years or lObS. Yea, this land of com and wheat and alfalfa ie grand. We have beenindulging ourselves in cherries to onr hearts content for tbe first time in years, as the trees in our yard have yielded us between 4 and 5 bushel!. We feet almost like farmers on a small scale, as we have running in onr little orchard a mother bog, 6 pigs 9 months old, and 9 pigs 6 weeks old, and some 60 chicken*. 1 think I told yon |att fall what a tough proposition the Diller school had been for two years previous to my coming. Well I never enjoyed a years work more than I have the year just ended. I have the satisfaction of hearing from every source, that I have given Diller the best sehool it ever bad, and for next year, I was voted an increase of 910 a month and at tbe annual meeting yesterday the district voted me another teacher in the High School, making 7 teachers in our school, 3 in the High school. Both cf the assistants whom I shall have in tbe high school next year, graduated from the ?tate University this month, Nebraska's school system is on a very high standard. The free high school law which the Dispatch stated is to become operative in Mich igan next year, by which pupils of the country schools, passing the 8th grade examination, may have their tuition paid by their district in some nearby high school, has been in operation in this state for years; but in this state the pupil can enter any accredited high school in tbe state and tbe home district must pay the tuition of $3 per month. Our high school received nearly $400 tuition from such pupils from other districts during tbe past year. There is but one other accredited high school than ours in the county and but one other snob school within 20 miles; so yon see we are nicely situated and draw foreign pu« pi Is from 8 miles on tbe north, 7 on the east, 7 on tha south, 6 on the west. Would like to spend a joonth in Michigan tbis summer bnt must fore go tbe pleasnre. Whtn I went to Michigan last summer I took with me the biggest appetite tor fish I ever accumulated but I find myself again laboring under an eltoost equally heavy burden of tbe same> kind.

C. t e C l u i g * Geo 8YNOP8I8. The story opens with the shipwreck of the steamer on which Miss Genevieve Leslie, an American heiress, Lord Wlnthrope, a n Englishman, a n d Tom Blake, a brusque American, were passengers. The three were tossed upon a n uninhabited Island and were the only ones not drowned. Blake recovered from a drunken stupor. Blake, shunned on t h e - b o a t because of his roughness, became a hero as preserver of the helpless pair. The Englishman was suing tor the hand of Miss Leslie. Blake started to swim back to the ship to recover what was left. Blake xetoroed 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 mile, hike for higher land. Thirst attacked them. Blake was compelled to carry Miss Leslie on account of weariness. He taunted Winthrope. They ew tared the Jungle. That night was pasaei roosting- high in a tree.

"Withdraw your aunty! There's no leopard going to tackle us out here in open ground this time of day. The sneaking tomcat! If only I had a match, I'd show him how we smoke rat holes." "Mr. Winthrope spoke of rubbing sticks to make fire," suggested Miss Leslie. "Make sweat, you mean. But we may as well try It now, if we're going to at all. The sun's hot enough to fry eggs. We'll go back to a shady place and pick up sticks on the way." Though there was shade under the cliff within some 600 feet, they had on cocoa nuts, th» only procurable food Miss Leslie showed a liking for Blake, but detested his roughness. Led by BSake they established a nome in some cllrfs. Blake found a fresh water spring.

Here they gathered a quantity of branches, even Miss Leslie volunteering to carry a load. All was thrown down in a heap near the cliff, and Blake squatted beside it, penknife in hand. Having selected the dryest of the larger sticks, he bored a hole in one side and* dropped in a pinch of powdered bark. Laying the stick in the full glare of the sun, he thrust a twig into the hole and began to twirl it between his palms. This CHAPTER VIII.—Continued. "They'll be dry in a day or two. Say, Winthrope, you might fetch some of those stomas—>size of a ball. I used to be a fiancy pitcher when I was a kid, and wernight scare up a rabbit or something." "I play cricket myself. But these stones—1" . - ; . , . . "Better'n a gun, when you havent got the gun. Come on. We'll go In a bunch, after all, «n case I need stones." With due consideration for Winthrope's ankle—not for Winthrope— Blake set so slow a pace that the halfmilfja walk consumed over half an hour. But his smouldering Irritation was soon quenched when they drew near the green thicket at the foot of the cleft. In the almost deathlike stillness of mid-afternoon, the sound of trickling water came to their ears, clear and- musical. "A spring**., shouted Blake. "I guessed right Look at those green plants add gra^tfi thtre'sthe channel where it ruml^out In the sand and dries up." The others followed him eagerly as he puBhed in among the trees. They saw no running water, for the tiny rill that trickled down'the ledges was , matted over with vines. But at the foot of the slope lay a pool, some ten yards across, and overshadowed by the 'surrounding trees. There was ho underbrn8h, and the ground was trampled bare as a floor. "By Jove," said Wfnthrope; "see the tracks! There must have been a drove of sheep about." "Deer, you mean," replied Blake, bending to examine the deeper prints at the edge of the pool. "These am't sheep tracks. A lot of them are arger.* "Could you not uncover the brook?" asked Miss Leslie. "If animals have * boon drinking here, one would prefer t oieaaer water." ' K "Sure," assented Blake. "If you're ; fame for a climb, and can wait a few minutes, we'll get it out of the spring Itself. We've got to go up anyway, to get at our poultry yard!" "Here's a place that looks like a path," called Winthrope,- who had circled about the edge of the pool to the farther side. Blake ran around beside him and . stared at the tunnel-like passage which wound up the limestone ledges beneath the overarching thickets. "Odd place, is it not?" observed Winthrope. "Looks like a fox run. only larger, you know." "Too low for deer, though -and their hoofs would have cut up ttia moss and ferns more. Let's get a elose look." As he spoke, Blake stooped and climbed a few yards up the trail to an overhanging ledge, four or five fe«t high. Where the trail ran up over this break in the slope the stone was bare of all vegetation. Blake laid his club on the top of the ledge, and was about to vault after it, when, directly beneath his nose, he saw the print of a great catlike paw, outlined in dried mud. At the same instant a deep growl came rumbling down tho "fox Crept Back Down the Trail. movement he kept up for several minutes; but whether he was unable to twirl the twig fast enough or whether the right kind of wood or tinder was lacking all his efforts failed to produce a spark. Unwilling to accept the failure, Winthrope insisted upon trying in turn, and pride held him to the task until he was drenched with sweat. The result was the same. "Told you so," Jeered Blake from where he lay in the shade. "We'd stand more chance cracking stones together." "But what shall we do now?" asked Miss Leslie. "I am becoming very tired of cocoanuta, and there seems\ to be nothing else around here. Indeed, I think this is all such a waste of time. If we had walked straight along the shore this morning we might have reached a town." "We might, Miss Jenny, and then, again, we mightn't. I happened to »/erhaul the captain's chart—Quill- .VAne, Mozambique—that's all for hundi «ds of miles. Towns on this coast are about as thick as hen's-teeth." "How about native villages?" demanded Winthrope. 'Oh, yes; maybe I'm fool enough to go into a wild "nigger town without a gun. Maybe I didn't talk with fellows down on the Rand." "But what shall we do?" repeated Miss Leslie, with a little frightened catch in her voice. She was at last beginning to realize what this rude break In her sheltered, pampered life might mean. "What shall we do?

"If only I had a pot of cold cream!" sighed Miss Leslie. "IT only I had a hunk of jerked beef!" echoed Blake. "I say, why couldn't we chance it for the night around on the seaward face of the cliff?" asked Winthrope. "I noticed a place where the ledges overhang—almost a cave. Do you think it probable that any wild beast would venture so close to the sea?" "Can't say. Didn't see any tracks; so we'll chance it for to-night. Next?" '"By morning I believe my ankle will be in such shape that I could go back for the string of cocoanuts which we dropped on the beach." "I'll go myself, to-day, else we'll have no supper. Now we're getting down to bedrock. If those nuts have not been washed away by the tide, we're fixed for to-night; and for two meals, such as they are. But what next? Even the rain pools will be dried up by another day or so." "Are not sea-birds good to eat?" Inquired Miss Leslie. "Some." "Then, if only we could climb the cliff—might there not be another place?" "No; I've looked at both sides. What's more, that spotted tomcat has got a monopoly on our water supply. The river may be fresh at low tide; but we've got nothing to boil water In, and such bayou stuff is just concentrated malaria." "Then we must find water else* where," responded Misa Leslie. "Might we not succeed if we went on to the other ridge?" "That's the ticket You've got a headpiece, Miss Jenny! It's too late to start now. But first thing to-morf row I'll take a run down that way, while you two lay around camp and see if you,.can twist,.aome sort of flshline out of cocoahut fiber.

Soothed by the monotonous wash of the sea among the rocks, even Mies Leslie slept well. Blake, who had insisted that she should retain his coat was wakened by the chilliness preceding the dawn. Five minutes later they started „pja their journey. The starlight glimmered on the waves and shed a faint radiance* ovei the rocka. This and their knowledge of the way enabled them to pick a path along the foot of the cliff without difficulty. Once on the beach, they swung along at a smart gait, Invigorated by the cool air. Dawn found them half way to their goal. Blake called a halt when the first red streaks shot up the eastern sky; All stood waiting until the quickly following sun sprang forth from th« sea. Blake's first act was to glance from one headland to the other, estimating their relative distances. Hii grunt of satisfaction was lost ia Winthrope's exclamation: "By Jove, look at the cattle!" (TO B E CONTINUED.) YOUNGSTERS TAUGHT TO SMOKE Two Centuries Ago Engjieh Children Carried Pipes to School, The practice of juvenile smoking In this country in the seventeenth century was practically universal, sayi the London Chronicle. Jorevin de Rochefort a French traveler of that period, in an account published in 1671 gives a description of an evening he spent in Worcester. He was catechised by one of the townsmen as to the habits of the French poeple. "While we were talking about the town," he writes, "he asked me if J t was the custom in France, as in England, that when the children went to school they carried In their satchels with their books a pipe of tobacco which their mother took care to fill early In the morning, it serving them instead ol breakfast, and that at the accustomed hour every one laid aside his book to light his pipe, the master smoking with them and teaching them how to hold their pipes and draw their to bacco, thus accustoming them to It from their youths, believing it absolutely necessary for a man's health." The Public Eye. In a little more we came to an open space, very thronged. "The Public Eye!" shouted the megaphone man of our party.

AN OLD TIMER Has Had Experiences, A woman who haa used Pottum since it came upon the market knowa from experience the wisdom ff. using Postum in place of coffee if oso values health and a clear hrain. She says: v "At the time Postum was first put on the market I Wat suffering from nervous dyspepsia, and my physician had repeatedly told me not to use tea or -coffee. Finally I decided to take his advice and try Postum. I got a package and had It carefully prepared, finding it delicious to the taste. So I continued ita use and verj soon its beneficial effects convinced me of ita value, for I got well of my nervousness and dyspepsia. "My husband had been drinking coffee all his life until*'it had affected his nerves terribly, and I persuade*} ' him to shift to Postum. It waa eaejito get him to make the change f i V the Postum Is so delicious. It cef» tainly worked wonders for him. "We soon learned that Postum does not exhilarate nor depress and does not stimulate, but steadily and honestly strengthens the nerves and the stomach. "To make a long story short, our entire family continued to use Postum with satisfying results, as shown in our fine condition of health and we have noticed a rather unexpected improvement in brain and nerve power." Increased brain and nerve power always follow the use of Postum in place of coffee, sometimes In a very marked manner. "There's a Reason."

By the process the plant la Jeprlved of quite a number of its toed* Ing roots aad for a time is cut off from Its water supply; consequently it is necessary to exercise considerable care with the plant until It again besomea established in tbe soit To help Insure this an abundant supply of moisture in the soil aft all times is essential to keep the plant from wilting and incite It to take hold of the soil Quickly. In sections where irrigation Is practiced the transplanted plants should be irrigated immediately after letting, and frequently afterward until Sanger of their dying out is passed. This can be told by the plants freshening up and starting new leaves. It Is also very essential In setting the plants out to firm the soil well around the roots. This Is very Important and ihould not be neglected. Many plants have failed on account of not doing this. Proper firming of the soil helps to exclude air from the roots and prevents the plants from drying up. In sections where irrigation is hot practiced plants are preferably transplanted during a rainy spell. If this cannot be taken advantage of it will be necessary to water the plants by hand until they are established. When loing this do It thoroughly; a little water Is' sometimes nearly as bad as aone. In moving the young plants from the .seed bed to the field and until set Dut they should be protected from the rays of the sun to prevent wilting. This protection can be given by wrapping the roots up In a wet sack or carrying to the field In a bucket or tub with a little water in the bottom to keep the roots moist. When digging the plants out of the seed bed use a shovel or spade and avoid breaking off as many roots as possible. It is also better to wet the bed first If the plants are very tall It will be well to cut off a part of the top. The operation will not hurt the plant and helps to keep it from wilting, as it prevents excessive evaporation of moisture from the plant through the leaves. Before transplanting the soil should be well prepared, being property fined aad leveled. Plants usually take root more quickly in freshly stirred soil. After the land has been properly, prepared mark off the rows where the • plants are to be set. This may be done if tt Is desired to plant on ridges with a plow; if on the level, by a marker. One thing to keep in mind is to make the rows straight aqjd the proper distance apart. It never pays to crowd plants^ By so doing a crop inferior in quality Is liable to be produced. Transplanting can nearly always be successfully done with most plants if the proper care is observed. Some of the things to keep in mind are: Dig plants carefully, protect them from the sun after digging until transplanted, supply plenty .of water to transplanted plants, set the plants properly in the hole and firm the soil around the roots. 8a I elf y. Salsify is a much neglected crop. Many people are very fond of this vegetable and It 1B just as easy to grow as parsnips. Sow early, thin the plants to three or four inches, and give clean tillage. The roots may be harvested in the fall for winter use, or they may be allowed to remain in the ground until spring. mmpmm**m Gardening Made Interesting. If the beans you are watching happen to be of the "pole" variety, watch the way they climb their pole and then watch the other vines and note tne difference in the way they twine— some going always toward the sun and others in the opposite direction. All vines have a wonderful fascination when one begins to study their habits for their ways of working seem as intelligent and their movements as voluntary as those of a person—but they must be watched to learn these things.

Tbe numBer' of new mills, building or p l a n n ^ v t b e MdiUciona to old mills and factories which are being made, and the general increase in productive reaourcee afford evidence of expanding traffic and greatly augmented wealth. Thla industrial growth 1B on a larger scale than it has been for a long time. It is abundant proof that New England is full of vital force, in business and in all productive activities. The1 greatest gain in the number and capacity of mills is in the textile industry, tbe field the best part of which superficial observers of business conditions and changes have said the south was fast capturing, says the Cleveland Leader. Southern cotton mills have indeed multiplied rapidly and prospered greatly, hut they have merely taken a part of the increase In the vast industry built, upon the fiber of the cotton plant. They have not cut down New England's output of cotton goods. They have not even prevented its strong and almost constant expansion. Yankee skill and capital, the experience of New England manufacturers, the prestige of their products and the machinery of distribution in their hands, all unite to defend the cotton industry of that section from injury by competition in the region where the raw material is grown. Once upon a time, the seasoned gossips of Washington say, you could spot a United States senator at sight. But now, they declare, it is hard to tell a solon of the upper house from a stock broker. It is all in the matter of clothes, says the New York World. The long frock coat, the expansive shirt front and the big, soft black hat of old have yielded to modern business attire. We mention these things because a Washington dispatch stating that 55 members of the house appeared on Monday in wholly new raiment suggests a general thought of the 'clothes of congress. A British M. P. who visited this country a few years . i-i 1 1 ' 1 1 I ' l l . * ago remarked that our national legislators did not know how to dress. To which a traveler from home rejoined promptly that they were lucky if they did not •know how to dress like members of the house of commons. Be that as it may, what meager particulars we have of the new suits of various representatives indicate that the Increased salaries of congress have fallen amid exponents of sartorial progress and good taste. It is likely that all 55 of the freshly clad would pass muster on brightest Fifth avenue. Sir Robert Bond, former premier of Newfoundland, who has been conspicuous for many years as an opponent of America A psiermen who ply their calling in lfewfoundland waters, and who has been largely instrumental in inflating the fishing imbroglio to proportions which compelled international consideration and submission to The Hague conference, was badly beaten in the election which took place in Newfoundland. This fact will be accepted as evidence that Newfoundlanders are not opposed to American fishermen, and that they find in the presence of the Americans an element of business which makes for the prosperity of.the coast fishermen, who not only work for the American fishing vessels, but also dispose of their fish in a legal manner, under the limitations of the law. Hare is one point on which the Immigration laws might easily be strengthened. American «lti*enshlp is not a right, hut a privilege, and it should be so construed, says the New York Tribune. If the country offers exceptional opportunities to the strong and intelligent of other countries, it fa worth their while to prove that they are entitled to share in these opportunities. No one can find any legitimate fault with this procedure, except the criminal and the incompetent, and the American people need consult their wishes only in so far as it may be desirable to find out what they would' prefer and then act to the contrary. UNHAPPILY MARRICD T M I I N O COMES BY MURDtR AND SUICIDE. CASS VERY GRUESOME. Qrand Rapid* Furnlahta a Horrible Story, and Lansing One, Both Cases Have 8lmllar Cause. The coroner's Inquest Into the deaths of Warren C. Rowland and his wlte, Vashti Perry Rowland, who, were found late Friday In a vacant house In Qrand Rapids, and the autopsy on the remains, revealed the fact that Rowland first stunned his wife by Btriking her on the head with his wooden leg, which he had removed, then wrecked the gas fixture, permitting the gas to pour into the room, and cut his own throat with a razor. The woman died from uspnyxiation, not from the blow on the head, which, according to the corouer, only stun* ned her. The man also died from asphyxiation, as the wound in the throat was not deep enough to cause death. Mrs. Rowland's body was found on the bed, partially dresseo, while that of her husband was partially on the floor. The room was full of gas, the key hole, all the cracks in the door and windows having been stuffed up with rags and pieces of clothing. They had evidently been dead nearly two weeks. Friday afternoon a neighbor notified the local gas office that there was a strong odor of gas coming from the vacant house, and an inspector was sent there to investigate. He inspected the meter in the basement and finally worked to the second floor. He traced the leak to the side room; and when the door was opened a horrible stench arose. The heat of the room was excessive, and the gas was pouring from the open jet. The police and coroner were then notified. Owing to the stench in the room the officers were unable to make a careful examination till several hours aft$r the bodies were found. Then they discovered the floor and door knob spattered with blood and bloody vest on the floor. Rowland had a police record and his reputation was bad. Mrs. Rowland was the daughter of Mrs. Flora O'Brien, of Pontiac. Besides her sister, Hazel, she has a brother, Lewis. Mrs. Rowland was married in Grand Rapids four years ago. Lansing Case. Charles Thayer, a farmer living south of Lansing, came to town Saturday morning and shot and killed his wife at the house where she was working. Thayer then fatally shot himself. He was enraged because the woman would not live with him. Thayer went to the door of the house and knocked. As Mrs. Thayer opened the door he snot and killed her, turning the revolver immediately upon himself. A GREAT PARADE. That wife who made her hwibund account for every cant she gave him was only getting back a t some husbands. Fine Exhibit of Automobiles in a Street Pageant. The parade of automomies in Detroit on Saturday was both magnificent and wonderful, there being over eleven hundred of these vehicles In line, ranging from the big touring cars to the small runaoouis and electrics. Many of the cars were stunningly decorated with flowers, and prizes .were given for ,tbe most striking effects. The parade was a preliminary to the famous liiidcten tour, which started Monday morning at 9 o'clock from in front of the city hall, the sixth annual tour of the American Automobile association, which includes the contests for the Glidden, Hower and Detroit trophies. In all 43 cars started, fll of which are contesting cars—14 for the Glidden, 14 for the Hower and three for the Detroit cup. In previous years the Glidden trophy has been won on tours through the eastern states, but now tV* cars are to have a drive of nearly 1,900 miles westward from Detroit to Denver and then 7ii0 miles back to Kansas City, where 1 lie tour will disband. The route leads the participants into territory not previously traveled, and there will bo many novel features. Sales of Homestead Lands. State Land Commissioner Huntley Russell Friday morning stated thai he would make an effort to have the land commissioner granted the privilege of holding the sales of homestead and other state lands in the territory in which they are situated, rather than here in Lansing. There are about. 00,000 acres of land situated in Alger, Arenac, -Dickinson, Isabella, Roscommon, Saginaw and Wexford counties which will soon be placed on sale, and if the sales are held in those territories many people who have not the money to make the trip to Lansing, as is necessary no*r, will be able, to purchase. By a peculiar mark upon her arm, Mrs. Hazel Horton, of Benton Harbor, was recognized bx her daughter, Mrs. Prank Davis. For 15 years the older woman has been thought dead, and the daughter was reared by other relatives. The blaeberry season, begins- neat week, with the largest cro»< tor year*.

T H U S M0T<*A¥*.v THE WQRK 18 EXTENSIVE. • • • • % ' — — : ' • - • ' ' * • The Upper HOJUM Hade Over tight Hundred Change*? WhJ«h Muet Now Be Fought Over. Bearing the scars of 847 amend* meats, placed there by the senate, the Payne tariff bill found its way back to the house, exactly three months to a day from the time it was put through by that body. Its reception was hailed with mingled feeling of joy and disappointment by the members on both aides, who, in response to summons from their respective leaders, turned out in great force. Cheaper cotton add woolen goods and cheaper hosiery and' women's gloves — former demanded by the house and the latter by the senate— promise to be among the most stubbornly* fought questions in the congressional conference on the bill. At east, that is the way things appeared at the close of the first day's session. Many express the opinion that the house witt yield on cotton and wool and the senate on gloves and hosiery in compliance with the protectionists' idea of stand-patism. Two sessions of the con*erees were held Saturday. The first began at 10 a, m. and continued until 1:15 p. m. A recess was taken for luncheon lasting until 2:30 o'clock, when the afternoon session was begun. It . was agreed that these hours shall continue through the conference. The afternoon session lasted until nearly 6 o'clock. When the session closed for the day the conferees had passed through the chemical and earthenware schedules and more than half way through the metal schedule. The adjustment of the differences between the house and senate will not prove so serious a task as is indicated by the large number oi amendments. More than 200 of the amendments consist of changing the phraBe "as provided by sections one and two of this act" to read "as provided by this section." These ehangee were- made necessary by the Action of the senate in consolidating the dutiable and free lists and making the maximum.provision the second.sectlon<of the" bjll. Nearly 300 other amendiaejiU. rejite to phraseology--**^*J*hi«h,,there will be no dispute whatever. Eliminating these it is pointed out that there are lesB than 400 amendments that represent onposing views. Fev> member* of the conference committee are willing to place the time necessary for the completion o! the bill In conference at less than 10 days, notwithstanding the large, aun> ber of purely verbal amendments. Some of the conferees place the probable length of the conference at a fortnight, or more. "Questions of Importance cannot be disposed of In a day or a week," said one of the conferees tonight.. The corporation tax amendment has not been considered by the conferees In any way. Nevertheless It Is predicted in congressional circles that the proposed tax on the net earnings Of corporations will be reduced In conference from 2 per cent to 1 per cent. .;• f "That has been suggested," said Senator Aldrich, when asked concerning the report that a reduction would be made in the tax. He said he could not say what would be done. It was reported also that the corporation tax provision, may be eliminated and the house inheritance tax provision restored to the bill, but no confirmation of this could be had. Rats Go to Csnada. Consul General John Edward Jones reports that Winnipeg is preparing for an active campaign against rats, which . have Invaded Manitoba from the south, and are described as "marching on Winnipeg." "The people look with serious concern upon the subject," says Mr. Jones. "Recently the matter was taken before the board of control at Winnipeg with a view to'devising ways and means to check the rodent advance. "Western Canada, especially the grain belt, has ever been free from rats, and the farmers are much concerned over their appearance and the threatened destruction of their harvested grain. " T h e deputy minister of agriculture is making a careful investigation of the subject along the International boundary, and will shortly make a report to the government." WIRELETS. V. S.

Some important interests in the trade figure that the consumptive demand has grown enough to absorb this difference and that before the entire crop is harvested we will run into a period of actual shortages rather than a surplus. It is also figured that foreign requirements easily will take all wheat which Is not needed for domestic purposes as crop conditions are generally understood to be.unsatisfactory in most of the old world grain raising districts. Hangman Shocked Them. , As if the hanging of a murderer In the Stratford, Ont., jail yard was not enough to shock and sicken the citizens of fine sensibilities, Hangman Radcliffe has hammered in the memory of the gruesome event by doling out, In small sections, the rope which the victim was hanged.

Blake and Miss Leslie turned to stare at the droves of animals moving about between them and the border of the lall grass. Miss Leslie was the first to speak. "They can't be cattle, Mr. Winthrope. There are some with stripes. I do believe they're zebras!" "Get down!" commanded Blake. "They're all wild game. Those big oxlike fellows to the left of the zebras are eland. Wheel wouldn't we be in it if we owned that water hole? I'll bet I'd have one of those fat beeves inside three days." "How I should enjoy a Juicy steak!" murmured Miss Leslie. "Raw or Jerked?" questioned Blake. "What is 'jerked?'" "Dried." "Oh, no; I mean broiled— just red inside." "I prefer mine quite rare," added Winthrope. "That's the way you'll get it, damned rare—Beg your pardon, Miss Jenny! Without tre, we'll have the choice of raw or Jerked." "Horrors!" "Jerked meat 1B all right. You qut your game in strips—" "With a penknife!" laughed Miss Leslie. Blake stared at her glumly. "That's so. You've got it back on me—Butcher a beef with a penknife! We'll have to take it raw, fend dog-fashion at that." "Haven't I heard of bamboo knives?" said Winthrope. "Bamboo?" "Ira sure I can't say, but as I remember, it seems to me that the varnish- like glaze—" , "Silica? Say, that would cut meat. But where in—where in hades are the bamboos?" "I'm sure I can't say. Only I remember that I have seen them in other tropical pi aces, you know." "Meantime I prefer cocoanuts, until we have a fire to broil our steaks," remarked Miss Leslie. "Ditto, Miss Jenny, long's we have the nuts and no meat. I'm a vegetarian now—hut maybe my mouth ain't watering for something else. Look at all those chops and roasts and stews running around out there!" "They are making for the grass," observed Winthrope. "Hadn't we better start?" "Nuts won't weigh so much without the shells. We'll eat right here." There were only a few nuts left. They were drained and cracked and icooped out, one after another. The last chanced to break evenly across the middle. "Hello," said Blake, "the lower part it this will do for a bowl, Misa Jenay. When you've eaten the cream, ;wt it in your pocket. Say, Win, havo rou got the bottle and keys and—" "All safe—everything." "Are you sure, Mr. Winthrope?" liked Miss Leslie, 'Men's pockets leem so open; Twice I've had to pick jp Mr. Blake's locket." "Locket?" echo** Blake. , ( "The Ivory locket.^ Women mav ba v." :r: ^ a g f y * ^ eurloua, Mr. Blake, bat I aasu* you ka*ped QMtoU tb>*A t |fe|.*'Vl .

Can't you see? We've got all hell beat! Look here." ^ He snapped open the slide of the supposed locket, and before either of his companions could realize what he would be about, was focusing the lens of a surveyor's magnlfying-glaaa upon the back of Wlnth'rbpe'a hand. The Englishman jerked the hand away— MOw! That bums!'* Blake shook the glass in their bewildered faces. "Look there!" he shouted, "there's fire; there's water; there's birds' eggs and beefsteaks! Here's where we trek on the back trail. We'll smoke out that leopard in short order!" "You don't mean to say, Blake—" "No; I mean to do! Don't worry. You can hide with Miss Jenny on the point, while I engineer the deal. Fall in," The day was still fresh when they found themselves back at the foot of the cliff. Here arose a heated debate between the men. Winthrope, stung by Blake's jeering words, insisted upon sharing the attack, though with no great enthusiasm. Much to Blake's surprise, Miss Leslie came to the support of the Englishman. "But, Mr. Blake," she argued, "you say it will be perfectly safe for us here. If so, it will be safe for myself alone." "I can play this game without him." "No doubt. Yet if, as you say, you expect to keep off the leopard with a t the trf Ufa. the real vahiea^'baT^ot maiklag oonven- "Bitten? Yes, by John Barleycorn 1" torch, would it not be well to have Mr. Winthrope at hand with other torches, should yours burn out?" "Yes; if I thought he'd be at hand after the first scare." Winthrope started off almost on a run. At that moment he might have faced the leopard single-handed. Blake chuckled as he swung away after his victim. Within ten paces, however, he paused to call back over his shoulder: "Get around the point, Miss Jenny, and if you want something to do, try braiding the cocoanut fiber." Miss Leslie made no response; but she stood for some time gazing after the two men. There was so much that was characteristic even in this rear view. For all hie anger and his haste, the Englishman bore himself with an air of well-bred nicety. His trim, erect figure needed only a fresh suit to be irreproachable. On the other hand, a careless observer, at first glance, might have mistaken Blake, with his flannel shirt and shouldered club, for a hulking navvy. But there was nothing of the navvy In his swinging stride or in the resolute poise of his head as he came up with Winthrope. Though the girl ;vas not given to reflection, the contrast between the two could not but impress her. How well her countryman—coarse, uncultured, but full of brute strength and courage —fitted JA with these primitive surroundings WtartA* Winthrope—and herself—- She fell luto a kind of disquieted brown study. Her eyes had an odd look, both startled and meditative— •4#kJn* to poadrt^ihe memnbtf of her own esiateape that afca fcad*awght a gUmpaeot the vanity and. waatafuineaa, the otter futility ol a w We. At the beat, ft^-coold eely have been a* Ithapa*. i&at wait art *h*t <m«a*;h? »>Of watt awe are sucb peopfe aa I T abe> cried. "That a a a may be cough and coarse—even a brute; but be at t*aa*«D*a talngs^-IW ahowhUn that I c s * da'thin**, tool" • She hastened out archjnd die come'r pi the cliff to the spot,where they had spent the night.' Herd- she gathered together the cocoanut husks, and sealing herself in the shade of the overhanging ledges began tq pick, at the coarse fiber. It was cruel work for her,soft fingers, not yet fully healed from the thorn wound*. • At times the pain and an overpowering sense of injury brought tears to her eyes; s£Ul more often, she dropped the work in despair of her awkwardness. Yet always she returned to the task with renewed energy. After no little perseverance, she found how to twist the fiber and plait it into cord. At best it was slow work, and she did not see how she should ever make enough cord for a fish-line. Yet, as she caught the knack of the work and her fingers became more nimble she began to enjoy the novel pleasure of producing something. She had quite forgotten to feel injured, and was learning to endure with patience the rasping of the fiber between her fingers, when Winthrope came clambering around the corner of the cliff. "What is it?" she exclaimed, springing up and hurrying to meet him. He was white and quivering, and the look in his eyes filled her with dread. Her voice shrilled to a scream: "He's dead!" Winthrope Shook his head. "Then he's hurt!—he's hurt by that savage creature, and you've run off and left him—" "No, no, Miss Genevieve, I must insist! The fellow is not even scratched." "Then why—?" "It was the horror of it alt. It actually made me ill." "You frightened me almost to death. Did the.beast chase you?" "That would have been better, in a way. Really, it was horrible! I'm still sick over it, Miss Genevieve." "But tell me about it. Did you get fire to the bushes in the cleft, as Mr. Blake—" "Yes; after we had fetched what we could carry of that long grass—two big trusses. It grows 10 or 12 feet tall, and is now quite dry. Part of it Blake made into torches, and we fired the bush a^l across the foot of the cleft. Really, one would not have thought there was that much dry wood in so green a dell. On either side of the rill the grass and brush flared like tinder, and the flames swept up the cleft far quicker than we had expected. We could hear them crackling and roaring louder than ever after the smoke shut out our view." "Surely, there is nothing so very horrible in that." "No, oh, no; it was not that. But the beast—the leopard! At first we heard one roar; then it was that dreadful snarling and yelling—most awful squalling! The wretched thing came leaping and tumbling down the path, all singed and blinded. Blake fired the big truss of grass, and the brute rolled right into the flames. It was shocking—dreadfully shocking! The wretched creature writhed and leaped about till it plunged into the pool. When it sought to crawl out, all black and hldeets, Blake went up and killed it with bis club—crushed in Its skull— Ugh!" Misa Leslie gazed at the unnerved Englishman with calm scrutiny. "But why should you feel so about it?" she asked. "Was it not the beast's life against ours?" "But so horrible a death!" "I'm sure Mr. Blake would have pre» ferred to shoot the creature had he a gun. Having nothing else than fire, I think it was all very brave of him. Now we are sure of water and food. Had we not best be going?" "It was to fetch you that Blake sent me." . Winthrope spoke with perceptible stiffness. He was chagrined, not only by her commendation of Blake, but by the indifference with which she had met his agitation. They started at once, Miss Leslie in the lead. As they rounded the point she caught sight of the smoke still rising from the cleft. A little later she noticed the vultures which were streaming down out of the sky from all quarters other than seaward. Their focal point seemed to be the trees at the foot of the cleft. A nearer view showed that they were alighting in the thorn bushes on the south border of the wood. Of Blake there was nothing to be seen until Miss Leslie, still in the lead, pushed in among the trees. There they fttmd him crouched beside a small fire, near the edjre of the pool. He did not look up. His eyes were riveted in a hungry stare upon several "BNHSr-fea saa* out, as he heard their footaUps: "Just hi -time, Miss Jenny.

Win, my boy. Thia ain't a packing house. The stuff may be toogfcy hut i f t not-^r—the other thing. Here you are, Miss Jenny. Chaw it off ^tha slick." JC Though Winthrope had his suspicions, he took the piece of half-burned flesh which Blake handed him in turn and fel1 to eating without further question. Aa Blake had surmiaed, the roast proved far other than tender. Hunger, however, lent it a most appetizing flavor. The repast ended when there was nothing left to devour. Blake threw away bis empty spit and rose to stretch. He waited for Miss Leslie to swallow her last mouthful and then began to chuckle. "What's the joke?" asked Winthrope. Blake looked at him solemnly. "Well now, that waa downright mean of me," he drawled; "after robbing them, to laugh at it!" "Robbing who?" "The buzaards." "You've fed us on leopard meat! It's—It's disgusting!" "I found it filling. How about you. Miss Jenny?" Miss Leslie did not know whether to laugh or to give way to a feeling of nausea. She did neither. "Can we not find the spring of which you spoke?" Bhe asked. "I am thirsty." "Well, I guess the fire is about burnt out," assented Blake. "Come on; we'll see." The cleft now had a far different aspect from what it had presented on their first visit. The largest of the trees, though scorched about the base, still stood with unwithered foliage, little harmed by the fire. But many of their small companions had been killed and partly destroyed by the heat and flames from the burning brush. In places the fire was yet smouldering. (TO BE CONTINUED.)

Eugenie's birth certificate, and when they got it they found that she was registered a boy. She is put down In the big book as a male, and a male she remains legally and administratively. Her parents pointed out first, that she was obviously, de facto, a girl; second, that the Christian name of Eugenie entered in the register was feminine; and third, that if she had been a boy she would already have been called up for the conscription, being of age. The authorities replied that none of these arguments were legally and administratively valid, and that she continued to be a boy. Administrative reports, procedure, and a decision of the courts, all at the parents' expense, will be required before the law acknowledges Mdlle.

Russia's ministry of ways and communications has appointed a board of engineers to make preliminary surveys for the long-projected canal to connect the Baltic with the Black sea. The canal, in the making of which several rivers will be turned to account, will have its northern end at Riga on the Gulf of Riga, 309 miles southwest of St, Petersburg, while the southern end will be Kherson, on the right bank of the Dnieper, and 92 miles east-northeast of Odessa.

"Billy,'* said Sergeant Ttom Evsn» to Corporal McOee, "what do you think Jaqosstae would do if you went back to her with all your front teetb knocked out by a Manser bullet or if you'd have to sport a wax a o e e T "Don't know," replied aleGee thoughtfully, at the same time taking several quick puffs on his pipe. "If I^were one of you fellowa," pursued Evans, "who, have girls waiting for yon I'd go home disfigured just for a test." "How would you do t h a t F asked afcGee, evidently lnts*eete4 in the proposition. "Ob, easy enough. A green patch over an eye or a leg doubled up with the knee in a wooden peg would do the business. Beggars practice thoee things every day." Evans and ttfcGee were cousins, and sa soon as they were alone together the latter said: «Tom, .I've a mind to try what you said about mutilation on Jaqueline when I return." "Good for you! You'll know then whether she's a true, noble girl or simply looking out for a fellow to give her a home." So it was arranged that when they returned Evans should go to Miss Thatcher and announce the melancholy news that her lover had lost his left arm in battle and carry a release from her engagement on th9 part of her fiance. If she desired to see him he was to go to her with his left arm twisted in the small of his back, an empty sleeve and a mOrtary cape thrown over his shoulders. Well, the war aaded stl wars end seme time—and the cousins went home safe and sound. Evans carried the message and came back wtth the weleosBt lnformatieu that Jaqueiine would love Billy just as well wttheaat the arm as with it, even mere. "Good!" ezelarmed Billy entbuslas tteally. "I knew she was true blue. There's no use now of keeping this up. HI go to her wtth two arras." "And make bar so mad she*n cast you off. You'll havs to play the one armed soldier til) after you're married or at least the invitations are out; But since you were to be married as soon as you reached home that won't matter." Now, there Is this about men—iu any serious matter connected with a woman tbey will stand by one Another even lo the most nefarious lie. But in matters that are not serious the man will Invariably stand by the woman. When McGee entered the room where Jaqueline awaited him he found her with her handkerchief to her eyes, evidently weeping for his misfortune. She threw her arms about his neck s n d sobbed on his IJ ^ ard aaturdaj of each month *n:3o ,, «,. shoulder. Then, suddenly disengaging SLO. T. M herself, she exclaimed: "Oh, Billy, did 1 hurt your poor arm?" "No," replied Billy lugubriously. "You know it's gone. I thought you wouldn't want me with nothing but one arm and a stump to fold you in." "Billy, how could you think that? When you went to the war, didn't 1 give you the ring with your cost of arms on the seal, and didn't you put it on the little finger of your left hand and swear to wear It there till your return? If you have kept your oath, that is all I require of you. Did you bring hack the ring, Billy, dear?" Here was a eitjastlon. Tom Evans bad foreseen that the ring must have been shot away with the arm. Ho told his cousin that if he had It on his finger during his interview With his fiancee he would probably get into a corner. He suggested that Billy let him wear the ring for awhile, aad Billy consented. •The ring," said Billy in a tremulous voice—"that • was the hardest part of i t I t went, wt(h the arm." "Foor fellow!" Bflly forced out a couple of tears. "Do yon know, Billy, dear," said the girl encouragingly, "that there is a good spirit which takes cars of us lovers.*' "No," said Billy, "I never heard of It" "There is. And when that horrid Gannon ball took off your poor arm the good spirit caught the ring, pulled it off the poor dead finger and brought It to-aae." ^What do ysu s n e e n r eswlsimed Billy, alarmed. "I mean what I say. Thisi lover's friend, njasg on tbe^winga of the wind. crossed the guif of Mexico and, raovhig northward, one ftijrht wben 1 was aaleep slipped the ring on«£ny own finger.

The instant I saw her I knew a criaflj waB at hand, and rose to tSft ocCfUiol}, as a cork rises to the surfacVof the water—lightly, buoyantly, yet determinedly. Josephine went at once to her room and closed the door with decision. I hovered on the stairway, palpitating with uncertainty, and the Affectionate solicitude which is ss>lsr removed from mere vulgar curiosity. Finally, mustering all my resolution, I turned the knob of the door and entered with quite a jaunty air, carelessly humming a tune. Josephine lay face downward on the bed, the riolets crushed and broken, and the heels of her patent leather shoes sticking pathetically outward. A choking, gasping sound revealed that she was crying into the counterf* ne« tQently murmuring an. endearing'epithet, I laid my band upon her head. 'Ota. ftunt'Ger*pudeVL sobbeA.

"Josephine," I said, kjndly but firmly, "you are engaged to be married— and to a man." It was evident she - wajs/ astonished at my perspicuity, fof ste -raised her head as though listening''-and nodded assent. "Furthermore," I continued, following up my advantage and speaking with conviction, "you are unhgppy." Down went her head again, and the-, sniffling into the counterpane recommenced. "Dear," I whispered with unalloyed sweetness, "is he worthy of these tears?" No reply. "Do you love him," I continued, ""deeply, truly, everlastingly?" Josephine sat upright and pushed, the hair out of her eyes. "Oh, Aunt Gertrude," she gasped, "it isn't htm—it's them." "Them?" I hasarded, faintly. "Yes," said my niece with the calmness of despair, "that's the trouble. I'm engaged all right—but there's two of him." "Tell me about it," I suggested, chiefly because I felt something was expected of me. "Yes," she agreed quickly, "I might Just as welt. I've got to tell somebody." "I ignored the last clause and composed myself to listen. Her story was briefly thus: Being unable to withstand the fascination to two callow youths, and finding it impossible to preserve the pface between them, Josephine had formulated the scheme of taking them •on alternate days, like two varieties 4t4 pills, as ft were. She remarked ^casually that she had stopped their visits to the house, as she disliked to see them glare at each other, and, moreover, her evenings were thus left free for others. She did not explain this, however, but insinuated parental opposition and dally persecution of herself, borne with angelic sweetness. Gently, but decidedly, I laid the facts of the case before my niece. I told her that, as she could marry but one man, it was manifestly improper to be engage* ts> two, "You mutt n«wV* I UosUnued—ignoring her remark, because I could not help'comp^efc^odinf that such a situation might be agreeable, sibeit sinful—"you must how, dear child, make your selection.

"That's Just what I tried to do," returned* Josephine, confusedly, "but the f«ld thing wouldn't work. So I tossed up a penny—heads for Ned and tails for Harry- It came down tails." "And," she continued, quietly, "I'm going to elope with him tonight." "Tonight;:: I. ejaculated, aghast. J'Ye8, to-night And, oh, Aunt Gertrude, I don't v/ant to one bit. It's not Harry, after all—it's Ned.

"You go," she said, "you go, and explain things," It is needless to recount the argument that followed. Enough to say that I finally agreed to go and tell the man wafting to marry my niece that, after all, she preferred some one, else. Josephine produced a long, light cloak and wrapped me in it; she also adorned me with a large hat loaded with plumes, because, she explained. Harry would be looking for juat that costume. Over the hat and face she tied a thick veil, remarking that no one could possibly tell who was in- Bide It, and perhaps Harry would marry me in Bplte of myself, as he was very impatient. Then she giggled hysterically. Secure in the consciousness of my rectitude, I compressed my lips and drew on my rubbers. It was not a pleasant evening.

"Take her away," he gasped, "there's some mistake. Let me out of this!" But the minister lifted his hand solemnly. "There seems to be some strange misapprehension," he said, sternly; "let us get to the bottom of this matter at once. Did you expect to marry this gentleman, madam? Pray explain." And I explained as well as I could. When I reached home—a long time after, for the distance was great and the street cars slow—I found my wrapper and slippers laid out in my room and Josephine hovering anxiously about the window watching for me. 1 told her the whole story, and she laughed In a way I thought ungrateful and unappreciative. "Josephine," I said solemnly, "I shall never recover from this night's experience. 1 hope you will always remember all) I have done for you." "Oh, well," returned Josephine carelessly, "of course it was awfully good of you, but do you know, Aunt Gertrude, I think you bungled the thing most awfully." ^2^«ULW>Sfjte p & . A T T A C K .

Trinity church is situated on a side street entirely off the main thoroughfare* where it is very quiet and secluded. I paused as I reached the corner and laid my hand on my bosom, a little to the left of the breast bone, as described in physiologes when locating the heart. Its throbbing was very evident. Summoning all my fortitude, I looked in the direction of the church. There, beside the lamppost, stood a manly form, and drawn conveniently close to the curbing was a herdlc cab. Suddenly an arm appeared about my waist, a face was pressed close to mine, and I distinctly felt the pricking' of a mustache. I blushed beneath the, veil and was glad the street happened to be dark and quiet. I found myself gently but forcibly propelled towards the cab, the door of which stood invitingly open. Twice I strove to articulate, but both times my voice failed me. "I'm going on the box with the cabby," he continued, cheerfully, "to make sure he gets the right place.

The misapplication of words in ordinary conversation is one of the positive and peculiar traits of a large proportion of the negro race, due in a measure to their desire to appear "educated" beyond their fellows. An example of this characteristic occurred recently at Birmingham, Ala., when a group of elaborately attired negroes were leisurely sauntering along the handsome streets of that bustling southern city showing the sights to a young woman of the party who resided in another part of the south.- Discussing the various attractions of Birmingham, a dusky beau remarked that "Miss Pearl Luetic was very much delighted with our town, on this her first visit." Promptly, Pearl Luc lie, in all the bravery of fashionable garb and fortified with the knowledge that she was esteemed a "star" guest, replied: "Of course I am.

Indeed, the very virtues of the good mother are a constant temptation to the other members of the family, especially the selfish ones, to take advantage of her. If she were not so kind, so affectionate and tender, so considerate, so generous and ever ready to make all sorts of sacrifices for others; if Bhe^were not so willing to efface herself; if she were more self-assertive; if she stood up for and demanded her rights, she would have a much easier time. forced to spend many weary months on his Iowa farm repairing the. ravages of the Hammerstein goat. .- The goat has always been jealous of the whiskers of the Iowa farmer. The goat has whiskers only ten inches long and time after time his goatlots has been sees gazing enviously at the farmer and then look down despairingly upon his own short and foolish looking beard. Farmer Wilks droppel into a sound slumber after the intermission. The jokes on the stage did not arouse him and the songs did not have the slightest effect upon his sleep. He dreamed of whiskers 40 feet long as he lay on the rug on which he exhibits his whiskers. The few who sat at the tables back in the farmyard paid no attention to the farmer or the whiskers, and they did not heed the goat. But the goat was busy. Softly he crept out of his stall and approached Farmer Wilks. Then he began to browse upon the beard. Farmer Wilks awoke with a cry of pain. The goat had swallowed a part of the beard and was nibbling away at the rest. • Farmer Wilks beat at the goat with his bare hands, crying plteously in a way that attracted the attention of Harry Mock. Harry Mock drove the goat away and rescued what was left of the whiskers. It was impossible to determine the extent of the loss, but it is believed that the goat ate off at least two feet of beard.

Grimalkin, a big Angora, mascot and pet ot the Standard Cooper Company at Landlock, lay quietly sunning herself on a rocky pinnacle 2,220 feet above the sea level and near the mine works, when a bald eagle swooped down and carried her away. The mine foreman was a witness to the abduction and1 intently watched the eagle and its prey as they soared over the mountain tops. The sad fate of the cat was discussed in the bunkhouse for three nights, when the sudden jangling of the telephone bell announced from a distance a little more than two miles that the cat had come back. Mme. Grimalkin was a sorry-looklng sight. Her long hair was disheveled and in spots her mutilated skin was bare. How far she was carried and how she escaped her captor she can not tell.

ORIGIN Of a Famous Human FoooV The story of the great discoveries or inventions is always of interest. An active brain worker who found himself hampered by lack of bodily strength and vigor and coald not carry out the plans and enterprises he knew how to conduct, was led to study Various foods and their effects npoa the human system. In other words, before he could carry out his plans he had to find a food that would carry hiavsfente and renew his physical and mental strength. He knew that a-food whieh-wse a brain and nerve builder «(rataer than a mere fat maker) was universally needed. He knew that meatvrtfh»%h* average man does not#accomplian the desired results. He, bfiw that the soft gray substance in brain and nerve centers is made from Albumen and Phosphate of Potaan obtained from food. Then he started to solve the problem. Careful and extensive experiments evolved *Gfape-Nuta;, the now famous food. It contains the brain and nerve building food elements In condition for easy digestion. The result o t eating Qrape-kaU daily Is easily seen in a markedstlfrSihess and marked activity of the brain and nervous system, making H a pleasure for one to carry an the daily duties without fatigue or exhaustion.

DESTROYING THE BUGS' NESTS Contrivance for the Destruction Plant-Destroying Insects and Their Nests. of Take a piece of tin or sheet iron and make it into a sort of funnel; the wider the opening at the top the better it will be. Fasten this funnel to any pole of sufficient length to reach the caterpill a r w eb.s, a n d drive a wire nail up through the pole at A so that the sharp end projects an inch or two into the funnel. This is to hold the oil-saturated corn cob which is used to burn the nests. Now, when your machine is complete, light the fire, hold the Are and funnel directly beneath the nest to be burned, and the rest is evident. The great advantage of this device is that the funnel catches all caterpillars which fall. Max M. Lutton. Scarcity of Farm Help. The great problem of farming communities to-day is the scarcity of farm help, which makes It increasingly difficult for the farmer to loave home. It hardly seems possible that within a few hours' ride of our great cities, help cannot be secured, but our farmer friends assure us that it Is easier to pick bank notes off blackberry bushes than to find a man to milk cows and take care of stock on the farm—and yet there are thousands In the cities who are serving long hours at unwholesome work for the merest pittance, who might regain health and manhood by taking up country work.—National Magazino.

Many horses are ruined by being brought Into the barn too hot and left to stand in a cold draught or hitched to a post to stand. A good currying occasionally does aot make a sleek horse. It takes svery-day grooming to open the pores, 3often the skin and produce a good, healthy, sleek coat. The colt's training must begin shortly after birth. A halter should be put oh so he can be caught and handled svery day. Never tease him. Regularity of work counts In everything, and especially in the handling of animals. The horse that is worked regularly acquires strong muscles and tough shoulders. Many farmefs allow their work horses to remain idle for several days ar weeks at a time, and then immediately pnt them Into hard service. It is a better plan to arrange some work for the horses daily.

The teed looks lias that of the common radisb. only considerably larger. Tbla radish is known by several names, the most common of which is Sakurajlma. It is claimed to roach the weight of 30 pounds in Japan. The heaviest one they were able to grow at the Rhode Island station weighed IS pounds, and in various tests with seed secured from various places it averaged 15 pounds, which made a pretty good sized radish. It grows about a foot and a half long, and about eighteen inches through. Its leathery Bkin is easily removed, revealing beneath a crystal whiteness, very solid, and in texturelike an extremely fine apple. It tastes like our earliest radishes of the high? est quality. It has; the rare merit of being free from rankness or biting character even in the heat of summer or fall. It never grows corky or pithy and grows equally well in every kind of soil. The Sakurajlma may be eaten in many ways. It is sliced and eaten raw, or may be boiled and served very much as we cook turnips; in China and Japan it is sliced and sprinkled with salt and allowed to stand for about twenty-four hours, then washed and served. The leaves also are edible. They may be cooked as greens, are far more delicate than kale, and are finer for this purpose than any of the well-known greenB used In different portions of the country. Unlike the smaller members of the great radish family, Sakurajlma is at its best in the summer time, when all other early radishes have become uneatable. *Pulled the last of November, after several hard freezes, it proved sweet and palatable. Sea kale fs not what can be termed a new garden vegetable, but it is classed among the "fancy" vegetables. It is not common, beeause an idea has prevailed that it anjiot produce results worth while in less than four years. This has recently been proved an erroneous idea. It is a most delicious vegetable, combining as it does the flavors of asparagus, cauliflower and celery. The edible portions are the naked leaf stalks, which are forced and bleached. They look at first sight like celery stalks, but have a distinctive taste of their own unlike any other vegetable. It may also be cooked and served with drawn butter, in which form it resembles stewed celery, tastes something like blanched asparagus, but has withal a special and delicious flavor all its own. Good Hay for Horse. Many farmers still have the notion that clover hay Is not fit to feed work horseB. It is one of the best of hays for horses. It contains good muscle and energy-producing materials. It is almost twice as rich as timothy, hence a less amount Is needed. A good way to use clover with horses is to feed it half and half with timothy. Clover hay is a good bowel regulator, and is generally beneficial' if fed with caution. J**«r L -——— >; t: * *M* NMev^emaw ">J * 1 |.n Money In Farm Animals. Live stock of all kinds is now on a high basis and no doubt will continue so for some time to come. There is money in growing farm animals, both for the animals themselves and for the good they do in producing fertilizer at home. Keep all young stock growing on pasture, and do not be afraid to feed a little grain to supplement the grass ration. Take Care of the Colts. Don't let the colts go out into pasture skin poor. Keep them in good flesh with-hay and grain foods. Corn and clover hay are about the best feeds Cor these young animals, and they will eat them all the year round. Dry clover hay is relished by all est* tie and horses even when on good summer pasture, and it is a good thing to give them a daily feed of i t A Good Rotation. A good rotation for mixed farming is wheat, clover, meadow one year, cow pasture for one year, corn and oats one year. This makes a six-year rotation. Where there are permanent pastures on the farm one year can be cut out by not pasturing the clover the second year. Asparagus Seed. Asparagus seed is slow to germinate but it will nearly all grow, nevertheless. It will start quicker if it is first soaked in warm water. Radish seed mixed with it will mark the rows so a cultivator cam be used.

Sullivan always had a 3ne Irish wit, and it remains with hlin in his advanced age. Not long ago ho was appearing in a Baltimore theater r.nd the manager, for business reasons, introduced him to a wealthy youth of the town. The youth was a typical chollyboy, the sort of a specimen that old John abhors. Sullivan was washing his face in the theater dressing room when the two arrived, and they waited patiently until he had finished his ablutions. When John had dried his countenance he gave the dude one look, and then said to the manager: "Well, I congratulate you, Jack, is it a boy or n p;irl?M No Mixm? Re»dr tor «M.

They didn't consult her romance as much as their own Interest They had two children and a dog, and they figured on making the old maid work for her board and lodgings. She fell into the trap, but not to her detriment. One of the male guests of the hotel, who might not have noticed her In any other walk, saw her as nurse and dog guardian and made advances. This guest was darkly supposed to be an actor—a u actor who played great parts and made a great success of his Job, but who was there incog, and wished to remain so. The other guests were respecting this wish, but following him about with bated breath. Actors sometimes get queer notions Into their heads, and Mr. Melnotte got One into his. It was that Miss Sarah would make 'the greatest Juliet he ever saw on the stage. She had the form, the voice, the eyes, the nose, the chin and the toes. All that was lacking were cash and a manager and the removal ct Just one tiny doubt—a doubt no larger than the head of a brass pin. Did she hare the necessary romance? If she did, then all was well; if aha didn't then alas! It has been stated that Miss Sarah did have romance and doted on it, but the next thing was to prove it to the actor. She took two days to cogitate and then went ahead. The hotel was suironndad by woods on three side*. One morning Miss Sarah left the wtdiaperlng dog and the howling cbisdron behind and started for the green WOO* and was soon lost to alght. She would be missed, aaardaad far, found and be talked of aa romantic. Miss Sarah was mlaoad. The Idea waa that she had boon drowned. More Chan naif the guaoai turned oat to drag too bottom of the lake. The actor was not one of them. Coincident with fhe alarm be had boon told by a fat woman that Mlaa Sarah hadn't a dollar to ber name. One woman assarted her belief that the missing female bad eloped with a tin peddler that had bean seen driving past the hotel at an early morning hour, and in woman said that any young lady that would leave a dog and two children to weep and wall by themselves should be severely dealt with on bar return, dead or alJve. These opinions were expressad to the actor for the purpose of drawing him out, but he refused to be drawn. He had just sat down to a mint julep with two straws in it, and why worry? Mlaa Sarah had entered the wood with ber heart aflame with romance. She bustled ber way along for half a mile and then halted for the actor to arrive at the head of a rescuing party. He didn't arrive. She waited for an hour and then started to walk back. Her feelings were hurt, and she lost the points of the compass and became lost for good. When she discovered this fact she called and screamed, but only the chipmunks and the woodpeckers answered. She ran this way and stumbled over roots. She ran that way and went splashing into n creek. There was romance in the greenwood, but it was farther on. All that long, long day Miss Sarah was lost In the depths. It was almost sundown when her good genius finally guided her to a clearing with a log cabin in the midst of it. Seated at the door of the cabin was a middle aged man in homespun. He rose up and addressed her as "marm" and wanted to know all about it. When he had been told he declared that It was the romanticist thing ha had ever heard of. In her wanderinga she bad walked seven* miles. She had escaped boars and "Injuns" and wildcats, and if she wasn't whut they called a heroine then he didn't know a turnip from » "tater bug." Mlaa Sarah waa tired, and she rested. She waa hungry, and he fad her on pudding and milk. She wanted to get back to the hotel and enjoy nor triumph, and he yoked up his oxen to the lumbar wagon and drove her there through the moonlight The guest* saw bar coming and got ready to renal ve ber. There waa Jey frigidity. Share waa a general attitude of doubt and suspicion. There were sneers at romance. When the humiliated and ombarraancd tr'iY:i looked at the actor in au upper.":^ way he turned Ma head aside and made it vary plain that aba would never off no* around behind the foofflghts witbjtft connjvinataad. and be atappad forward and touched her on tfce arm ant •aid: - "Say, gal* they d*ot *»•** to appreciate heroines belt.

M. QttiD. •on FrenWla's Trick. Benjamin Franklin once wrote ibis letter to a man to whom be was landing some money: "I sand you herewith a bill for 10 loads d*ors. I do not pretend to give swell a sum; I only lend tt> to you. Whan you shall return to your country you cannot fail of getting Into some bind of business that will in time enable you to pay all your debts. In that ease when you meet with another honest man In similar distress you must pay me by lending this sum to him, enjoining him to dlsebaige the debt by a like operation when he shall be able and shall meet with another opportunity. I hope it may then go through many hands before it meets with a knave to stop its progress. This Is a trick of mine for doing a deal of good ,, with little money." 4 « : Noo3 No. 4 J1 -7 afM»i* a*»* • c « 4 coi > f o * 2 S e A l l kawtUH OtaHfoattju* <UftS)*tCo«t, Isanltftft' Muftlto Skirt* and G o w n * the S1«20 Quality to d o p e Setturdsxy • • 8 8 e A l l G r o c e r ! * * a n d Shoo* * t Good Bice, So; Raisins, 8c; •Special Price* Corn Flakes, 7c; Pkg Oat Meal, 22c Produce Wanted Sales Cash What a Memory 1 One rainy day in spring au old Yorkshire fisherman returned to his native village after an absence of flfteec years and fearfully sought the bouse [ which sheltered his deserted wife.

'My good fellow,' said I, 'I didn't so much as know that you had a wife.'" Truth or Fiction? "Ah, what a difference there is." remarked the cynic wearily, "between courtship and marriage!

A western university professor predicts that the population of the United States will soon overtake the food supply.

JURIES VIEWS DIFFER Cases of Domestic Wrongdoing 'Which Resulted in Murder and Sensational Features. After a heated discussion of more than eight hours, the jury in the case of Dr. G. K. Boyajian, charged with the murder of his nephew, Harotoon Gostanlan, asked to-be discharged, as they could not agree. Four stood for acquittal. The case started with the murder of Gostanlan in a police court of Detroit by Dr Boyajian, who had chu&ed the arrest of the murdered man and Mr*. Boyajian on a serious charge. The victim and his murderer were Armenians, the former being a nephew of the latter. The trial was sensational, the defense being emotional insanity. The wife testified for the husband, alleging she had been forced to submit to the nephew in the doctor's absence, and under threats of death, had not informed her husband until suspicion and forced confession brought out the story. To questions us to hjs plans in case he is liberated and Ills attitude toward his wife—whether or not he looks forward to a reconciliation— Dr. ^oyajian made no answer. "1 can't discuss that," he said. "I expect my wife will visit me here—1 want to see her very much, but my little girl, she shall never see me through these bars. 1 can't bear the thought cf that." The jury in the case of Michael Burkart. charged with the murder of Robert C. Barrows, whom he shot and kilUij in a broil over the latter's wife, convicted the accused. In this case self-defense was offered as an excuse. Burkart when a guard on the wall of the house of correction flirted with Barrows's young wife, and became intimate with her, the final result being a stcrmy interview, which cost the husband his life. A Glazier Loan. A decree handed down in the Wash tenaw circuit court gives notice of a compromise entered into by the Dex ter Savings bank, which will end one phase of the Frank P. Glazjer lltig;i tion. The suit involved is that in which the Dexter Savings bunk has sought to be given preference on its $25,000 claim against the Glaxier Stove Co. The claim is based on a loan originally secured by a Glazier note, out this paper was later taken uu and replaced by Ave separate $5,000 notes signed by the directors of the stove company, all of whom were members of the Glazier family. When the crash came they were worthless, whereas the original Glazier note would have stood a chance of settlement out of the assets. The bank sued to have the debt declared that of the stove company itself. The decree directs the trustees of the defunct concern to pay the Dexter institution $2,500 out of funds heretofore ordered set aside for use when needed, upon the signing of the bank's waiver of its claim. Want $49,000 Paid Back. The Detroit, Grand Haven & Milwaukee railway has made a demand on the auditor-general for a refund of $49,000 in taxes paid to the state under the gross earnings system of taxation in vogue previous to the establishment of the ad valorem system. Under the decision of the supreme court the company's charter is perpetual, allowing it to pay a tax of 1 r>er cent on its capital stock, but the company paid the gross earnings tax for four years and asks for the difference between the amount paid and the 1 per cent tax of $25,171.40, together with interest since. Asylum Inmate Drowned. The body of H. Lynn Sanders, aged 39, a patient at the Eastern Michigan asylum, was found in the waters of Osmun lake, by J. G. Wells, of Parlucah, Ky., who was casting on the l<\ke. Sanders disappeared from the asylum July t and is believed to have committed suicide. His former home was in Ypsilanti, where he has a father and mother. He had been a the asylum since 1900. No inquest was held. Sa^e the Money. The board of state auditors Is send ing out John L. Boer, of Grand Rap ids, and ex-Representative L. R. Thomas, of Huron, to call on county agents and advise them as to ways to save the prate money. It will br suggested that as far as practicable the agents, when hiring rigs and traveling otherwise at state expense, Arrange matters so as to complete their business in one trip.

The explosion of an over-loaded shotgun whiln hunting near Ypsilanti so mangled Xuah Hayes's left hand that it had to be amputated at the wrist. Hubbardston is to have a big homecoming camp meeting, under the auspices of the local Methodist church, August 3 to 15. Many noted m nisters from all over the state will preach at the meetings. William Andre, the "ex-egg k ng,' twice convicted of swindling, was to have been sentenced at Charlotte, but the case has been again continued till the October term. He is at l.berty under $3,000 bail. Fire destroyed seven ice houses of the'- Wildanger-Klanders Coal & Ice Co. at Flint with most of the city's ice supply. The b'aze was started by tramps. A few hours earlier three private garages were burned, with a $4,- 000 loss. The new boys' building, with a capacity of 100, at the Nazareth academy near Kalamazoo, has been named Barbour hall, in honor of the late Mrs. Betsey Morton Barbour, of Detroit, who was a benefactor of the institution. The safety valve, placed in the Grand Rapids reservoir after the flood of 1900, saved the city a 1 ke experience early Wednesday morning. The water was two fret above the high mark, but the valve carried off the surplus. A bitter feud In the Gypsy camp at Comstock Point has grown out of the elopement of young members of tw< rival bands. The girl's father, it is explained, placed a price of $1,000 on ,her and the lover saved the money by stealing the maiden. Mother Mary Anthony, formerly su ]>erloress of St. Francis' orphan home in Detroit, was elected reverend moth er general of the sisters of St. Joseph, of the Detroit diocese, at the genera! chapter recently held at Nazareth academy, near Kalamazoo. Maria Heydlauff, of Grand Rapids after working as a scrub woman and living most frugally for many years died leaving a $17,000 estate, principally in cash. Nearly all the money is given to the Christian Science church work, the balance for charitable purposes. Two people were killed and nine others injured in a head-on collision between a Chicago, Kalamazoo & Saginaw passenger train and a southbound freight train a mile and a half north of Schultz station shortly after ?> o'clock Thursday afternoon. The wreck is believed to have been the result of a misunderstanding of orders. Seventy per cent of the divorce suits heard and pending in Washtenaw county circuit court have come from Ypsilanti. It. appears that the atmosphere of Ypsilanti is not conducive to domestic happiness, as almost every conceivable cause for app'ication for freedom, from incompat bility to extreme cruelty, is advanced by the contestants. A party of Grand Rapids capitalists, who for several weeks have been going over the wilds along the Boardman river, near Traverse City, have announced that they were investigating the tract with a view of locating a mammoth hotel and bathhouse. The numerous springs n that region are said to possess mineral qualities which will cure rheumatism. Louis Sanderhoof, trustee for the bankrupt Dudley Butter Co., of OWOBso. and E. F. Dudley, will make hi» srm -final report in the case in the United States court in Bay City, but it is probable that a suit will be necessary before the matter can be settlrrl. Dudley carries a large life Insurance and this Sanderhoof is trying to secure for the creditors. Mrs. Clara Connolly, of Grand Rap- IdH, once convicted of killing her husband, and who was recently brought back from the Detroit house of correction ,' where she was serv ng a sentence, for a new trial, will probably be freed. The new trial would cost the county a large amount and aa the woman has already served some time this la thought to be the beat course. m FORCES . | r . . V )"Hl I TMK NleV A M I N O W I N T * TO THE TARIFF BILL ^MOW FKEE « A W MATERIAL. . . , : M d . •»• " . . . . That the S t a n d P a t t e r s Listen to the Reasons of t h e President la N » * in Evidence. President Taft will win hU fight for free or reduced rates of duty on raw materials. Nearly every member of; the .conference on t h e tariff hill conceded this. The Indications are that when the new tariff bill becomes a law tbe ratesc o n - t h e arUulua which, the president desired to come in free will be as follows: Iron ore—free (present rate 40 cents per ton). Oll-i-free«,(now protected, by countervailing duty). Hides—7 1-2 per cent ad valorem; (present rate 15 per cent). Coal—45 cents per ton; (present rate $7 centB per ton). Lumber—probably $1.25 on rough, with «enate rateB on finished. This would be a material reduction throughout the lumber schedule. It is expected that the Philippine section as approved by the subordinate committee will be adopted by the conferees on Monday. It provides for the free admission of 300,000 pounds of wrapper tobacco and 1,500,000 pounds of filler tobacco and 300,000 tons of sugar. With the exception of rice and the limitation placed upon tobacco and sugar all articles "the growth, production, or manufacture of the Philippine islands" will be admitted free. There is no longer any question that the corporation tax amendment will be accepted. Attorney-General Wickersham still has it in his custody, but the draft has been seen by some of the conferees and they have found it to be satisfactory. It will tax the net earnings of corporations organized for profit at the rate of 1 per cent. Some difficulty was experienced in working out the deductions or exemptions, hut it is understood that all of the objections to those features have been removed. ^WIRBLETS. „,»**» *e* w A ^ M $ M f » v « M ^ d S t ^ o r n t , r f-ou I e r £ m ^ j ^ S f l ^ l * > f l * y « < G V K TW\Pffl!a1i t c r w i i t t e o t i T f r a e W i l e d ftot^ * w o * " * " a l i f p ' t o ttr^Httleonfrltest riilfthwjto in H laaM l i Xew Yorkjthi, falj.

Sipahadar -and Sardarasad. the leaders in the nationalist movement, sent t h e following telegram to the British and Russian legations: "In accordance with the decision of the national council, which met today at Baharlstan, it will be necessary for a deputation from the council to wait ,pn hta majesty, Mohamed AH, to notify him of the change of sovereign. As his majesty is at present a refugee in the Russian legation, under British and Russian protection, we request your excellencies to fix a time when hie majesty may receive the deputation." The ex-shah replied through the legation, saying In his message: "His majesty states that having taken refuge In the Russian legation, he has, Ipso facto, abdicated; therefore, he does not wish to receive a deputation which ,comes for the purpose of informing him of the fact." Mohamed All probably will depart shortly for Russia. It is believed that the queen is desirous of accompany ing him, taking with her the crown prince, who is the newly proclaimed shah. Free Hides, Says Fordney. Fordney for free hides is the re markable announcement emanating from the Michigan congressman heretofore regarded as a high priest oi protection; in an Interview he declares himself unequivocally opposed to the beef trust, and says that he is forever and eternally against any protection that is simply for the purpose of creating and conserving a monopoly. "I believe in protection to Ameri can industries," said the Saginaw man, "and I want that protection to be ample; but I am convinced that a high^tariff on certain articles ol commerce on which there Is a monopoly in America will result in ruin for many thousands of worthy people. Leather is one of them." French Like Qompers. The speeches of Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, delivered before the French labor organizations, are aroualpg in tense Interest in labor circles. Tin extreme Socialists bitterly condemn him as a reactionary and scoff at hit big salary, but the moderates have shown much sympathy in his denun elation of the futile political rolt which the French General Confedera tion of Labor is essaying in its revo-| lutionary, socialistic and anti-patriotic campaigns. The moderates express the hope that the French labor organisations will heed Mr. Gompers's words, abandon revolutionary agitation, and devote themselves, like the American organ irations, solely to the advancement oi professional intereita. An Indian View. Krishnavarma, the notorious editor of the Indian Sociologist, writes a long letter from Paris in defense of Dhingra, the murderer of Sir William Wyllie. He denies any complicity rn the assassination, but describes the assassin as a martyr in the cause of Indian independence. He reasserts his doctrine that political assassination is not murder, and avers "That there are even in England some hlgh- •niinded, thoughtful publicists who agree with him." The significance of this letter lies in the prophecy at the end that "There will ere long befall England a catastrophe that will stagger humanity." Race Suicide. German statistics point in alarm to the decreasing birth rate, most plainly observed in Berlin, and a pronunciamento against "race suicide" such as ex-President Roosevelt hurled at the American people is expected from Emperor William.

JlcClurg & Co.; 8 Y N 0 P S I 8 . The story opens with the shipwreck of the steamer on which Miss Genevieve Leslie, an American heiress, Lord Wlnthrope, an Englishman, and Tom Blake, a brusque American, were pausenxera. The three were tossed upon an uninhabited Island and were the only ones not drowned. Blake recovered from a drunken stupor. Blake, shunned on the boat, because of his roughness, bpcanip a hero as preserver of the helpless pair. The Englishman was suing for the hand of Miss Leslie. Blake started to swirn back to the ship to recover what was left. Blake returned safely. Winthrope wasted his last i;»atch on a cigarette, for which he was scored by Blake. Tfieir ttrst meal was a dead fish. The trio started a ten mile 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. All three constructed hats to shield themselves from the sun. They then feasted on cocoanuts, the only procurable food. Miss Leslie showed a liking for BUke, but detested his roughneas. Led by Blake they, established a home in some iliffs. Blake found a fresh water Bpring. Miss I^eslie faced an unpleasant situation. They planned their campaign. Blake recovered his surveyor's magnifying glass, thus insuring fire. lie started a jungle fire. CHAPTER IX.—Continued. Blake picked a path along the edge of the rill, where the moist vegetation, though scorched, had refused to bum. After the first abrupt-ledge, up which Blake had to drag his companions, the ascent was easy. But as they climbed around an outfitting corner of the steep right wall of the cleft Bliik* muttered a curse of disappointment He could now see that the cleft did not run to the top of the cliff, but through it, like a tiny box canyon. The sides rose Bheer and smooth as walls. Midway, at the highest point of the cleft, the baobab towereri high above the ridge crest, its gigantic trunk filling a third of the breadth of the little gorge. Unfortunately it stood close to the left wall. "Here's luck for you!"' growled Blake. "Why couldn't the blamed old tree have grown on the other side? We might have found a way to climb it. Guess we'll have to smoke out another leopard. We're no nearer those birds' nests than we were yesterday." "By Jove, look here!" exclaimed Winthrope. "1 his is our chance for antelope! Here by the spring are bamboos—real bamboos—and only half the thicket burned." "What of then?" demanded Blake. "Bows—arrows—and did you not agree that they would make knives?" "I'mph—we'll soe. What is it, Miss Jenny?" "Isn't that -a hole in tho big tree?" "Looks like it. These baobabs are often hollow." "Perhaps that is where the leopard had his den," added Winihrope. "Shouldn't wonder. We'll go and see." "But, Mr. Blake," protested the girl, "may there not be other leopards?" "Might have been; but I'll bet they lit out with the other. Look how the tree is scorched. Must have been stacks of dry brush around the hole, 'nough to smoke out a fireman. We'll look and see If they left any soup bones lying around. First, though, here's your drink, Miss Jenny." As he spoke, Blake kicked aside, some smouldering branches and led the way to the crevice whence the spring trickled from the rock into a shallow stone basin. When all had drunk their fill of the clear cool water Blake took up his club and walked straight across to the baobab. I^ess than 30 steps brought him to the narrow opening in the trunk of the huge tree. At first he could make out nothing In the dimly lit interior; but the fetid, catty odor was enough to convince him that he had found the leopards' deb. He caught the vague outlines of a long body, crouched five or six yards sway, on the far side of the hollow. He sprang back, his club brandished to strike. But the expected attack did oot follow; Blake glanced about as though considering the advisability of i retreat. Winthrope and Miss Leslie vera staring at him, wbite-faeed. The light of their terror seemed to spur actions may. rather htrve been due to the fact that bfenaaltatt tk© futility ef flight ftaq) ffUfoa* t*lh%raaiftir«memta "OeT>WWndw th***WR>aos!M he called, and aa they hurriedly obeyed, he caught up a etese and flung if in at the crouching beast. He heard the.mjealle strike with a soft thud that told him he had not missed hii mark, and.he .awuug up. his club in both hands. Given hair a chance he would smash the skull of the female as rbe: had ncmufced her blinded mate. Ope-momeat After another passed, and he stood poised for the shock, tense and scowling. Not so much as a snarl came from within. The truth flashed upon him. "Smothered!" he yelled. The other saw him dart in through the hole. A moment later two limp grayish bodies were flung out into the open. Immediately after Blake reappeared dragging the body ef the mother leopard. "It's all right; they're dead!" cried WlnthrQpe, and he ran forward to look at the bodies. Miss Leslie followed, hardly less curious. "Are they all dead, Mr. Blake?" she inquired. "Wiped out—whole family. The old cat stayed by her kittens, and all Bmothered together—lucky for us! Get busy with those bamboos, Win. I'm going to have theBe skins, and the sooner we get the cub meat hung up and curing, the better for us/' "Leopard meat again!" rejoined Winthrope. "Spring leopard, young and tender! What more could you ask? Get a move on you." "Can I do anything, Mr. Blake?" asked Miss Leslie. "Hunt a shady spot." "But I really mean it." "Well, if that's straight, you might go on along the gully, and see if there's any place to get to the top. You could pick up sticks on the way back, if any are left. We'll have to fumigate this tree hole before we adopt it for a residence." "Will it be long before you finish with your—with the bodies?" "Well, now, look here, Miss Jenny; it's going to be a mess, and I wouldn't / him to dare-defrl Wfasjlo; thoagll fcdT| waved a bloody kifW*above the body of the mpther leopard, and beckoned the girl to conje nearer. . "Hold on *. minute, please," he said. "What did you And out?" Miss Leslie drew a few steps nearer, and forced hnwelf .i» look at the revolting tight. She found it still more dim cult to withstand the odor of the fresh blood. Winthrope was pale and nauseated. The sight of his distress caused the girl to forget her own loathing. She drew a deep breath, and succeeded In countering Blake's expectant look with a half-smile. "How well are you getting along!" she exclaimed. "Didn't think you could stand it. But you've got grit all right," if you are a lady," Blake said admiringly. "Say, you'll make It yet! Now, how about the gully?" "There 1B no place to climb up. It runs along like thisr and then slopes down. But there is a cliff at the end, as high as these walls." "Twenty feet," muttered Blake. "Confound the luck. It isn't that jump-off; but how in—how are we going to get up on the cliff? There's an everlasting lot of omelettes in those birds' nests. If only that bloomin'— how's that. Win, me b'y?—that bloomln', blawsted baobab was on t'other Bide. The wood's almost soft as punk. We could drive in pegs, and climb up the trunk." "There are other trees beyond it," remarked Miss Leslie. "Then maybe we can shin up—" "I fear the branches that overhang the cliff are too slender to bear any weight." "And It's too infernally high to climb up to this overhanging baobab limb." "I say," ventured Winthrope, "if we had an ax, now, we might cut up one of the trees, and make a ladder." "Oh, yes; and if we had a ladder, we might climb up the cliff!" "But, Mr. Blake, iB there not some way to cut down one of the trees? The tree itself would be a ladder if it fell in such a way as to lean against the cliff." 'There's only the penknife," answered Blake. "So 1 guess we'll have to scratch eggs off our menu card Spring leopard for ours! Now, if you really want to help, you might scrape the soup bones out of your boudoir, and fetch a lot more brush. It'll take a big Are to rid the hole of that cat smell." "Will not the tree burn?" "No; these hollow baobabs have green bark on the inside as well 'as out. Funny thing, that! We'd have to keep a fire going a long time to burn through." "Yet It would burn in time?" "Yes; but we're not going to—" "Then why not burn through the trunk of one of those small trees, instead of chopping it down?" "By—heck, Miss Jenny, you've got an American headpiece! Come on. Sooner we get the thing started, the better." Neither Winthrope nor Miss Leslie was reluctant to leave the vicinity of the carcasses. They followed close after Blake, around the monstrous bole of the baobab. A little beyond it stood a group of slender trees, whose trucks averaged eight inches at the base. Blake stopped at the second one, which grew nearest to the sea ward side of the cleft. "Here's our ladder,' he said. "Get some firewood. Pound the bushes, though, before you go poking into them. May be snaker here." "Snakes?—oh!" cried Miss Leslie, and she stood shuddering at the danger she had already incurred. The fire had burnt itself out on a bare ledge of rook between th^m and the baobab, and the clumps of dry brush left standing in this end of the cleft were very suggestive of snakes, now that Blake had called attention to the possibility of their presence. He laughed at his hesitating companions. "Go on, go on! Don't squeal till you're bit. Most snakes hike out, if you give them half a chance. Take a stick each of you, and pound the bushes." Thus urged, both started to work. But neither ventured into the thicker clinnps. When they returned, with, large armfuls of sticks and twigs, they found that Blake had used his glass to light a handful of dry bark, out in the sun, and was nursing it into a small fire at the base of the tre#, on the side next the cliff. "Now, Miss Jenny," he directed, "you're to keep this going—not too big a fire—understand? Same time you can keep on fetching brush to fumigate your cat hole. It needs it, all right." "Will not that be rather too much for Miss Leslie?" a?k^d Winthrope. "Well, if she'd rather come and rub brains on the skin?,—Indian tan, you know.—or—" "How -can yon mention such things before a lady?" protested Winthrope "Beg your pardon. Miss Leslie! you see, I'm not much used to ladies' company. Anyway, you've s;ot to see and hear about these things. And now I'll have to get the strings for Win's bamboo bow*. Cume mi Win.

Think you can learn to cook?" "See what 1 did this morning." Blake took the cord of cocoanut fiber which she held out to him, and tested its strength. "Well, I'll be blessed!" he said. "This is something like. If you don't look out, you'll make quite a campmate. Miss Jenny. But now, trot along. This is hardly arctic weather, and our abattoir don't include a coldstorage plant.

The fire, once started, required little attention. She could give most of her time to gathering brush for the fumigation of the leopard den. She had collected quite a heap of Cuel at the entrance of the hollow, when she remembered that the place , would first have to be cleared of its accumulation of bones. A glance at her companions showed that they were in the midst of tasks even more revolting. It was certainly disagreeable to do such things; yet, as Mr. Blake had said, others had to do them. It was now her time to learn. She could see him smile at her hesitation. Stung by the thought of his halfcontemptuous pity, she caught up a forked stick, and forced herself to enter the tree-cave. The stench met her like a blow. It nauseated and all but overpowered her. Fhe stood for several moments in the center of the cavity, sick and faint. Had it been even 4he previous day, she would have run out into the open air. Presently she grew a little more accustomed to the stench, and began to rake over the soft, dry mold of the den floor with her forked stick. Bones!—who had ever dreamed of such a mess of bones?— big bones and little bones and skulls; old bones, dry and almost burled; moldy bones; bones still half-covered with bits of flesh and gristle—the remnants of tJae leopard family's last meal. At last all were scraped out and flung in a heap, three or four yards away from the entrance. Miss Leslie looked at the result of her labor with a satisfied glance, followed by a sigh of relief. Between the heat and her unwonted exercise, she was greatly fatigued. She stepped around to a shadier spot to rest. With a start she remembered the fire. When she reached It there were only a few dying embers left. She gathered dead leaves and shreds of fibrous inner bark, and knelt beside the dull coals to blow them into life. She could not bear the thought of having to confess her carelessness to Blake. (TO BE CONTINrED.) ACTED UPON BY SUGGESTION. CHAPTER X. Problems in Woodcraft. T WAS no pleasant sight that met Miss Leslie's gaze upon her return. The neatest of butchering can hardly be termed aesthetic; and Blahe and Winthrope lacked both skill and tools. Between the penknife and an improvised blade of bamboo, they had flayed the two cubs and haggled off the flesh. The ragged strips, splttejd on bamboo rods, were already searing in the fierce sun-rays. Miss Leslie would have slipped into the hollow of tb4 baobab with her armful of fagots and brush; but Blaka That Thought May Produce Blister on Hand, Is Medical Fact. It Is not generally known that thought may produce a blister on the hand or an ulcer on the foot, as well as many other actual physical changes in ones organism which are little short of miraculous. I have no doubt that St. Francis of Asslsi received the stigmata of the crucifixion on his hands and feet as historically described. I have no doubt, because its possibility has been put to the proof within the past few years, and by a friend of mine whom I will name, Prof. Krafft Ebing of Vienna told a young woman he would place a small fly plaster upon her which would produce a blister in a few hours. He actually only put a postage stamp upon the skin, without her knowledge, and covered it over so securely with bandages that she could not interfere with it. The blister appeared as suggested.— Frederick Peterson, M. D., in Collier's. Drudgery in the Kitcnen. The path of progress is clear. There is no more reason why the woman in modern civilization should scrub and cook and darn and dust than there is why these things should be done by men. The development of improved machinery and the growth of labor saving devices of all kinds will finally obviate the necessity of doing these things each day in each home through the land. Co-operation, which we are slowly learning to greet as a friend, will overcome the drudgery and make the life of a woman as enjoyable and eventful as that of the man.—Nearing and Watson in "Economics."

To decide the all important question of coffee, whether or not it is really the hidden cause of physical ails and approaching fixed diseases, one should make a test of ten days by leaving off coffee entirely and using well-made Postum. If relief follows you may know to a certainty that coffee has been your vicious enemy. Of course you can take it back to your heart again, if you like to keep sick. A lady says: "I had suffered with stomach trouble, nervousness and terrible sick headaches ever since I was a little child, for my people were always great coffee drinkers and let ug children have all we wanted. I got so I thought I could not live without coffee, but I would not acknowledge that it caused my suffering. "Then I read so many articles about Postum that I decided to give it a fair trial. I had not used it two weeks In place of coffee until I began to feel like a different person. The headache and nervousness disappeared and whereas I used to be sick two or three days out of a week while drinking coffee I am now well and strong and sturdy seven days a week, thfanks to Postum. "I had been using Postum three monthB and had never been sick a day when I thought I would experiment and see if it really was coffee that caused* the trouble, so I began to drink coffee again and inside of a week I had a sick spell. I was so 111 I was soon convinced that coffee waa the cause of all my misery and I went back to Postum with the result that I was soon well and strong again and determined to stick to Postum and leave coffee alone in the future."

These famous pill* have l>een giving sneb universal oat is fact ion throughout the country that they are rapidly becoming known as the leading and most effective Kidney and Bladder Pills. Tbere is no doubt about what they will do and you will find the truth of this statement verified in a short time alter you have been using them. Recommended and toy F. A Should Carry U m p t . , Ifce-Iaw which compels eutos to have a good clan of lamps both front and rear should be made to include all vehicles as the auto driver has no protection whatever in meeting a rig after dark. Of course the driver of the buegy or rather tbe horse, can aee the auto ooming for some distance and tries to get out of the way, many times driving into tbe tone* at a danger of upsetting, and then blames the antoist, while if tbe baggy had lights the driver of the auto woald have a chance as well to give way to the other rig and parbaps turn out in a good place for passing. The drivers of antos are blamed many times for things that he waa not to blame for at all and where if tbe other driver had used the same courtesy that he wonld to another driver of a horse there would be no trouble. Remember that tbe auto driver is obliged to stop tor you if you wave your hand, but after you have caused him to stop be as quick as possible in getting past as his time is perhaps as valuable as yours. Also remember that when you are overtaken by an auto and the driver signifies bis desire to go by either by tooting his horn or otherwise, that the law compels you to turn out at tbe first opportunity and let him by. There are we know, some auto driverB who are about as mean as they can be and probably break tbe law in regard to speed, etc., but remember that is no excuse tor you to break tbe law in not giving the antoist bis rights. Tbe sooner each driver recognizes tbe rights of the other tbe same as be would the driver of a like rig, the better for all concerned. In turning out to let an auto pass yon, do not do so on a hill and think you have fnllfilled tbe requirements as you have not—it is almost impossible for a machine to go fast enough up bill to pass even a slow horse. There am many and we might say the most of them who are willing to give tbe antoist bis rights aid some of them more but there are a tew who still hold a grudge against not only the auto bnt anyone who drives one. We have not written this article to rub anyone in particular nor because we own an auto and want more than is our rights, but to try to give all an idea that each must be respected in their rights.

We did not keep count of the san i and stones used, as they were near the building work. We did not put any air space in the walls. We have had the building up a year, and the walls have always beeu perlectly dry. I have been told by masous that the stones forming the o./ter face ot the wall will take care of the nmistur*. and prevent its coming through.

How long will the asparagus bed last? .A suburban market gardener says he has a large bed about 20 years old which has about run out. The roots have grown a thick mass all over the field, saya the New England Homestead. The rows of sprouts have widened until it is difficult to cultivate at all and th'i stalks have heroine small. Repeated losses by winter killing have left large gaps in some places To renovate such - a field is a hopeless lob and to kill out j (he asparagus is almost equally difn j cult,. Perhaps the easiest way to reclaim the land will be to chop up the surface with a wheel harrow and sow to onts and barley, ioliowed by rye. 1« will take several seasons to kill out the plants It may be said here that an aspauigus bed will last much longer than 2\) years if the plants are set in wider rows and farther apart in the row. Plants which have plenty of room for their roots will stud up in rue sprouts when 50 years old in and well manured and clean. In the iied above mentioned the4 glgnto were crowded only *\t" inches to a foot ipart, witb less tofti^-four fe«t< between the rows. • A » Plan for Cow Barn. ber, which is stripped over each stud ding with a 1x2 inch strip. The strips are covered with wood or metal lath and the lath with two coats of Port land cement plaster. The spaces be tween the studding are rilled in with concrete thirty inches above the tlooi line. The walls and ceilings are then lathed and plastered with cement. The roof is covered with best grade of as phalt roofing, over eight inch ship lap. which makes the entire barn practically fireproof. Considering that the walls require no paint, and that the barn is much warmer in winter and cooler in summer than wood, also the lasting qualties of this construction, it is really cheaper than wood, as it is very little more expensive than the wood to start with. In- some sections where the sand and gravel may be secured on one's own place it may be built even cheaper than with wood. All exposed woodwork should receive three coats of the best paint, and should be renewed as often as necessary The stalls are formed of gas pipe, also the stanchions The Moors, also the gutters, are provided with drain trap* for carrying away the water and liquid manure. The liquid manure should he drained to a cement manure pit. Where a water system is In stalled a hose may be used and the entire barn washed down and cleaned in a very short tune. All angles should be rounded so as to not hold the dust and dirt. Peed and litter c a r r k r s are installed, and the loute of the trolleys areshown by the dotted lines. If hay or other rough feed Is stored above, a good tipht floor shoald be laid, and sliding doors placed to ciose the hall space between the feed toom and milk room. By closing the doors and passing the hay down in this space the dust and dirt will be kept out of the cow bain. One fea ture about this construction that should not be overlooked is that any damage to the walls or floors may lie repaired by almost any one and the material required will be simply the cement and sand.

H I N T S FOR CARE OF HOGS. If you have not, made arrangements to get. the hogs out on the grass, do so at. once. A cheap fence can he built, with posts, and hemlock hoards ten inches wide with two barbed wires on top. This fence will keep hogs, give them health and the owner profit. As soon as the pigs are weaned the sows should be turned with the male and then put by themselves in a good clover pasture. A clover field Is a paradise for hogs and a money-maker for their owner.

This, be it understood, is no hand organ variety of monk. His size, species and fighting disposition all indicate that he formerly belonged to a family of gladiatorial monkeys in the native jungle, whence he was kidnaped some years ago. With the £rue instinct of a tramp the monkey had picked out houses where the men were away from home, and a trail of scared women has been left where the animal sought entree into the most exclusive circles. The living room of Mrs. W. T. Buchelle, a wealthy New York widow, whose husband was an official of the New York Telephone Company, first attracted the monkey. Mrs. Buchelle was entertaining a lady who had called when the window was darkened by the strange intruder. The monkey ran toward the women, chattering in ganry simian dialect and showing Ua teeth.., Xhe two women ran, shutting the door so as to leave the monkey in possession of only one room.

On the other side faithful Towser, the family bulldog, rushed to the attack. Whether the monkey knew about the properties of the screen and was putting up a bluff or not may not be stated, but the intruder showed fight and the dog held his championship reputation by reason of the wir<: guard. Prom this house the monkey ran t.c Nathaniel Webb's home. There he imagined himself a policeman and went into ,the k|tcljen. where ht grabbed a plate of fudge from a servant girl and leaped into a near by tree, screaming a warning to the girl to keep away while he en.ioyed the family food. At the last stop where the monkey was seen a child was eating a stick of candy. The monkey took thf candy and left, the child unharmed.

"Don't make a sound, sister Angelina," cautioned Mrs. Dobbs, as a thin, hatchet-faced woman, with a bowl of water in h e r hand, entered t h e room. "He's asleep at last, but he's mighty restless. I don't want him waked up until you've tried t h e experiment on him. Seem's if I couldn't wait another minute to find out whether your suspicions were true-, or only made up out of your own head.'' "Made up, indeed," sniffed Angelina; "that's t h e thanks I get from my own sister. You needn't be afraid, I'll show him up," and she gestured toward t h e sleeping Plato. "I showed up h i s two brothers, Animoua and Venomous, over to Peaville, before I'd been visiting their wives two weeks. Just as soon as I helped those poor, deluded women to pack up and go home to their own folks I came right over here to help you out. There never was a man yet to be trusted in anything, and now that I've discovered a way to un- _ m a s k 'em it's going to be my lifework. Did you have Plato do as I said to-day, so's he'd be good and tired to-night?" "Yes, he's been on the go ever since sunup; and to-night I got him a travel book out of the library, and he's heen reading it aloud. There was one fearful story in it—about a female gorilla capturing a man and keeping him a prisoner for two weeks on the limb of a tree. Plato read that twice, it was so exciting." "I'll excite him," ejaculated Miss Angelina, grimly. "You always was the softest one of the Barlow family, or you'd have soon through Plato Dobbs' tricky ways long ago. But I s'pose if I hadn't nought my book of ancient secrets you'd have put up with him all youf days, and been none t h e wiser." During Miss Angelina's remarks s h e had grown somewhat excited, and. heedless of the sleeping Plato, she raised her voice a little. He gave no sign of rousing, however; indeed, his slujnber seemed more quiet. .*nd he lay,.breathing regularly, with his a r m dangling over the edge of the bed. Mrs. Dobbs gazed with 41 we at t h e bowl on the table. "Are you sure," she demanded, "that you've mixed it according to direc ttons?" "Certainly; I know the recipe by heart: 'M you would know another's secrets, place a great pinch of salt, in a bowl of clear water; then when a deep sleep has fallen upon him place his hand in the salted water and ask him what yon will; he cannot deceive you.' I b'lieve some ancient, woman named Alberta Agnes discovered t h e secret. Come on, hold the bowl so his hands just touch the water, and I'll do the questioning. He'll find that he can't hide anything from Angelina Barlow." There w a s no guile on t h e placid face of Plato Dobbs as he lay on his baclc with his eyes closed. The night mare that had affrighted him seemed to have departed. With curiosity and awe on h e r face, Mrs. Dobbs took up the bowl and- gently raised it. until Plato's fingers dipped into the water. "Wet hiB hand more," admonished her sister at her side. Mrs. Dobbs was about to comply when Plato struck out suddenly, sending a shower fnto the face of Miss Angelina. "Wow!" muttered the sleeper, "there s h e j s again. There's old bowleg «-Aigh;M "There, what did T t e l l yon?" exclaimed Hiss Angelina. "He's talking aboMt^wewe^'already. Walt till I get the salt water out of my feye»,vand I'll find out what he's been up to. ^Wet his hand again, sinter." Once more Plato1* band w a s , s u b - merged, and this time be made no protesting m o v e m e n t Miss Angelina fixed her eyes on his face and sternly demanded: "Plato W. Dobbs, where'd you firat meet this female?*'.. "Um-uni—down by the river," sleepily muttered the man In the bed, "I knew it," declared Miss Angelina. "I told you, siBter, that he went down there for something else besides fishing. I followed him often enough, but I never could catch him at anything. Where'd you hide, you bald-headed old deceiver?" • "Up a tree," responded t h e victim, with astonishing promptness. "Up a tree—tree—tree—um." "Good lands!" exclaimed Mrs. Dobbs, "there's no woman around these parts that can climb a tree, let alone staying there when s h e got up. Ask him how she kept from falling off the limbs." "Bow-legged," immediately responded t h e sleeper. "Old bow-legs—bowlegs— ugh." "Keep his hand well wet, sister," cautioned Miss Angelina. "I'm going brute, you've got f3 tell. What's h e r name? Sp^ak up." ' "Angelina B a x W , " ' a n d then Plato drowsily took *way his hand and burled himself beneath t h e patchwork coverlid. The bowl of water dropped unheeded front Mrs. Dobbs' fingers, and Miss Angelina sunk limply to the floor. "You'd better go to bed and get some rest, Angelina," said Mrs. Dobbs at length. "You'll be getting up early to-morrow." "Do you b'lieve what he said?" weakly demanded Miss Angelina. "N-no, course not; only you told me that t h e Bait water made 'em all tell the truth, and you know, Angelina, that you're awfully bow—" "Sister!" "Well, any way, you'd better pack your things, and the hired man'll drive you over to Peaville the first thing in the morning." Beneath the bed clothes Plato Dobbt was chuckling and winking In t h t darkness. A Week Behind. It is perhaps Bruno's tact and di plomacy that have made his weekly entertainments a t the Lyceum on East Broadway so popular, says t h e New York Press. As an example, last Friday evening t h e subject of the lecture waB "Shall Woman and Man Be Educated Equally, and Why?" There followed discussions. One boy, whether it was that he slept or what, arose, mounted t h e platform and began carefully to discuss t h e subject of the week before and to answer t h e arguments he evidently thought t h e speaker of that evening had advanced in proof of his theory. T h e audience commenced to titter, then to laugh aloud, whereupon Mr. Brunof sprang up and explained: T h e sign outside has not been changed," he said. "The painter did not change it, therefore this young man naturally supposed the subject announced outside to be the subject under discussion this evening. I t is not his fault. It is not our fault. It is the fault of the painter." 3SEHS3SB*. SUBPmSED A t ' W E SCHEDULE Colored Man Felt He Was Being Railroaded Into tfi» Class of "High Financier*."

There is much that appeals to human interest and emotion in the immense stacks of letters and parcels received at the rate of 40,000 a day, and containing articles of every description, some of them bearing addresses which cannot be deciphered even by the experts. In the 13,000,000 pieces of mail matter received by the division last year there were 6,000 books, 1,000 pairs of eye-glasses, 90o fountain pens, 800 razors, false teeth, marriage certificates, rings, shoes, snakes—in fact, everything from valuable diamonds to penny souvenirs. There was also more than $65,000 in actual money and commercial paper, including checks, drafts, money orders, etc., representing a face value of $2,203,992.— Assistant Postmaster General P.

Saves Time—Saves Money MO STROPPING NO HONING -Gillette KNOWN THE WORLD OVER 'Guara^ That Divining Rod Mystery The enthusiasm with which men have written to disprove and discredit the claims of those who relate successful experiences with t h e divining rod, for t h e finding of hidden underground springs, h a s served to create a rather unusual interest In the subject. It is somewhat like shaking a red rag a t a bull to raise t h e subject again, before the heat of a recent discussion h a s fairly cooled, b*it a new theory a n d a new account cf success have come together from France, both of which a r e worth relating. That springs are actually found, and with surprising frequency by men who use the divining rod is a fact that cannot be disputed. But whether it is the rod or the mad that finds the spring is t h e open question. The Frenchmen claim that t h e man is the sensitive medium upon which the unexplained influence works, while t h e rod is but a means of expression which shows effect. Both observers and t h e workers with t h e r o d state that only those to whom the gift is I given naturally can hope to succeed j with the divining of springs, and claim that the criticism and ridicule that is turned upon them is due to the fact of failures where the gift is absent.— Technical World Magazine.

If I boar one tattoo tailing behind another person's back I don't scrapie to tell the parson talked about tbat be or ahe Is being naUgoed. I think they ought to know Last autumn I took my daughter abroad aud left her at school at Geneva. Then I started for Berlin. I got t&to an empty compartment and waited till the train started. Presently au oJAsh gentleman got in with a young lab lady. They was very affectionate —at least the oldish gentleman appeared to dote on his young wife, who seemed to be watching for some one. Then a youngish man with black whiskers got in, took a seat directly opposite the wife, aad Hhe breathed easier. The door waa abut by the guard, and the train steamed away. It dldnt take me long to find out that that yonng feller and tbat youug wife were fooling the oldish husband. The old oue never turned his head that they didn't look into each other's eyes lovingly. By and by he got up from his seat, came to the window where I was and sat down directly opposite me, at the same time taking a news paper out of his pocket. I never saw such a fool lu my life. If ^hese old meu will marry young wives', why on earth do they leave them in temptation, I'd like to know? The poor old I husband never took his eyes off his | paper, and the couple at the other side | of the compartment never stopped ! flirting. j I sat straight up and tried to frown j 'em down. They didn't seem to care much for me, but once the young hussy, wbnen her lover put his hand on hers, drew hers away, cast a glance at me and whispered something to the young man. After that they both leaned back for awhile and stopped their JbeJhV. But It wasn't long before they V«a at it again, beth leanin' forward, sjst of his knees covered by her skirts, tmt she didn't know that I knew that tie? was holdin' hands under it too. I couldn't stand it any longer. The basband waa a benevolent looking •an, and I sympathised with him from the bottom of my heart. By and by he put down bis paper and looked oat the winder. I began by makln' tome remarks about the weather and the beauty of the country. He seemed inclined to talk with me because he hadn't any one else to talk with. I purposely directed his gaze to the view to be seen from the other window so that he'd see what was goin' on, but the miserable things heard me and leaned back against the cushions. There was uothln' for me to do but tell him. By this I'd be doln' him a service and her, too, for I guessed there hadn't been anything real criminal between 'em, and if the affair was nipped In the bud there wouldn't be. Jest as I waa makin' up ray mind how to put him on to the thing without offense the train whizzed into a tunnel. The compartment was black as Ink for awhile; then we shot out into bright daylight. The old fool of a husband was settin' with his head thrown back and his eyes shet. The lovers was settin* back from each other, and n flush was on the young woman's cheeks. But what was that on the black whiskers of the young man? Powderpowder from off her face. I saw It and knew that the whippersnapper had been rakin* a kiss. At that moment the husband opened his eyes. Would you believe it? He looked at the couple unconcernedly and then resumed his paper. "What's that," 1 whispered to him, "on that young man's beard?" He looked at me kind o' surprised, then at the young man, then back at me. "I don't see anything," he said. '"Don't you see the powder on his beard?" "Powder? No." "Well, I declare! Where's your eyes? That young man's got powder on his beard and his coat collar, and It could have only come from your wife's face." The old man looked again at the powder, then at me, then back at the couple. Then, looking at the young man, he said flerrely: "You kissed her, sir!" "What business is that of yours?" retorted the other in a harsh voice. "She Is no longer yours. She is mine." "Yours, sir!" "Yes. mine." "Since w h e n ? " " A t high noon t o d a y .

It pays to advertised There has to be leaders in nearly everything from society to village*, cities and large manxfisoturing ptaate. This is a good thing in a community and" the basinets world as without leaders things would not move aa well if at all. Pinokaey eujoyes the destination of being a leader in many things and others have followed and still desire to folio*. Several years ago Pinokaey was the first entail village to take up and inaugurate a home coming of the old boys and girls and carry it to success. Since then several of our sister villages have "followed the leader" and found in a good thing for the town as well as a pleasant thing for all concerned. For more than a year there ha* not been a rod of wocd sidewalk in this village, all being of cement, and the sooner other villages take up the idea the better for them. Of course it is expensive but better than a lawsuit. Early this spring Pinekney secured a creamery and cheese factory and now there a half dozen started or try* ing to start in this county or vicinity. Well, it is a good tfaitig and we do not blame onr sister villages for wanting such a manufactory. The pay roll here amount* to nearly 11,060 nor week even in the dry time for milk and increasing every week. The creamery here has been a benefit to the farmers in mora ways than simply f amis Ling a place to tail their product, as Mr. Day, the manager hi in touch with all markets, makes a first class product and gats the beat prices and then divides the profits with the farmers by paying more for their milk than other concerns have bean doing at this time of the year or are doing now although everyone of them has raited the price sltee the Pinekney creamery started. While tome are slow to take advantage of this and seem to stand in their own light, they are coming in more and more every week and we look for the creamery here to be one of the biggest concerns of the kind in the state in the future. There is so much increase in the business that the company have made arrangements to tear out part of the large office to give them more room. Oue of the good things about the factory here is, they pay one price to all whether it is twe gallons or ten, ten gallon cans. The man who has milk to sell and brings it to the creamery in a pail gets the same once per hundred pounds as the one who brings or sends in several hundred pounds.

The house was that af John Karpenski, a farmer in Sanilac county, and Mrs. Karpenski and her daughter were asleep in the house, but made their escape. "I did it to get even with them," said Kulesch in his confession to the police. "It burned to the ground. My conscience has worried me. I didn't know whether the women were burned up or not, so I want to give myseli up." It seems from Kulesh's story that he had loaned $75 to Karpenski and when the farmer did not pay it back when he wanted it, he became angry. He went to Chisago and a few days later came back to Port Huron. Ht says that he bought some oil and took It with him to the farmhouse. He got a ladder and climbed to the second floor and sprinkled it around and then set it afire. He says he then ran to the wocds nearby and watched the house burn. He didn't know whether the women got out. "I have been in hell since," he told Lieut. Walpole, "and I want to be locked up." Kulesh and Karpenski were boyhood friends in the old country and it is said that Karpenski, who came to this country first, sent Kulesh money with which to come to America. He came and went to work in the beet fields for his friend. Last summer Karpenski borrowed $75 from KuleBh and when Karpenski was unable to repay it upon Kulesh's demand the latter became angry and planned his revenge, which took the form of burning his friend's house. the train Three stolen horses and buggies have be«n recovered and a man named Smith arrested as the thief by Allegan county officers.

Wires are down, but later reports from the interior show greater damage and loss of life than were sustained in that city. With six known dead on Tarpon fishing pier, the list of supposed 11 victims has been cut down. Five were rescued from the bay alive. The sixth was dead when taken from the water. Fourteen others are missing, and damage to property is estimated at |7B0,- 000. Twenty-three deaths are known to have occurred. The missing are members of the aeronaut.

Details of police and deputy sheriffs guard St. Mary's Catholic church, school and the residence of the priest. Fr. Nowakowski, of Alpena. Another police guard protects the priest himself, at the residence of the pastor of St. Bernard's church, and still more, policemen are guarding Miss Marie Nowakowski, sister and housekeeper of the priest. Philip Kaniecki, the parishioner who was shot during the riot at St. Mary's church house Sunday, is in a serious condition and may not recover. The bullet shattered his lower jaw and lodged in the throat. Twelve pieces of the jawbone were, removed by the surgeons. The feeling against the priest involves a majority of the parish. Bishop Richter was asked by the church trustees a year ago to remove Fr. Nowakowski. but he refused. Sunday afternoon, when the bishop had conducted confirmation services at the church and had gone to the priest's house with Frs. Nowakowski, Flnnnery, O'Toole and Stroses, & committee from the church, accompanied by the trustees, forced their way into the house and renewed the demand for the priest's removal. The bishop refused to give a definite answer, and the flght ensued. The priest was struck several times by the angry committeemen and his sister was struck in the face, blacking both eyes. Then the young woman secured a revolver and fired two shots, one striking Kaniecki. Michael Kaniecki, a brother, was injured in the .fist~flght, although not struck by a bullet. The poHce spirited the priest, Miss Nowakowski and another sister out of the beck door to safety, while the mob in front were yelling, "Lynch him!" Miss Nowakowski was arraigned on a charge of assault with Intent to commit great bodily harm. She was released on ball. The unpopular priest will be transferred to another parish to save his life.

Orvllle Wright at Fort Myer Saturday evening surpassed all previous performances oJf the Wright aeroplane in the matter of speed and in Ihe sharpness of his turns. Wilbur Wright, who closely watched his brother's flight during every .inch of his progress, calculated his average speed, with and against the wind, at 47 miles an hour. One of his circles at full speed was estimated to be within a diameter of 150 feet—an automobile could hardly do better than that at the high rate of speed. The aerial navigator remained aloft at Fort Myer a little over 20 minutes, and then at a signal from his brother, Wilbur, made a swift and safe landing. With this flight the preliminaries to the official trials may be said to have been concluded. and were to have camped out on the beach Tuesday night. Part of their equipment has been found. Graphic tales are told by those who were swept from the Tarpon fishing pier, off Galveston, into the gulf and rescued, clinging to bits of wreckage along the beach near Morgan's point. Ray C.

Fifty years ago she closed her house to her friends, and up to the time of her death was seldom seen even by her neighbors. Thirty years ago a local newspaper criticized the seating accommodations of an assembly hall , in what was then the biggest and best building in Fort Plain. Miss Diefendorf owned it. The hall was closed the next day, the tenants' leases were not renewed and the building has stood ever since, heavily taxed, but dusty and vacant.

C McClur* A Co.; SYNOPSIS. The story opens with the shipwreck of the steamer on which Miss Genevieve Leslie, an American heiress, Lord Winthrope, an Englishman, and Tom Blake, a brusque American, were paaaengers. The three were tossed upon an uninhabited Island and were the only ones not drowned. 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 owim back to the ship to recover what was left. Blake returned safely. Winthrope wasted hla last match on a cigarette, for which he was scored by Blake. Their first meal was a dead flBh. The trio started a ten mile 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 pussed roosting high In a tree. The next morning they descended to the open again. All three constructed hats to shield themselves from the sun. They then feasted on cocoanuts, the only procurable food. Miss Leslie showed a liking for Blake, but detested his roughness. Led by Blake they established a hjme in some cliffs. Blake found a fresh *ater spring. Miss Leslie faced an unpleasant situation. They planned their campaign. Blake recovered his surveyor's magnifying glass, thus Insuring fire. He started a Jungle fire, killing a large leopard and smothering several cubs. In the leopard's cavern they built a small home. They gained the cliffs by burning the bottom of a tree until it fell against the heights. C H A P T E R X.—Continued. The hot ashes flew up in her face and pondered her hair wilh their gray dust; yet she persisted, blowing steadily until a shred of bark caught the sparks and flared up in a tiny flame. A little more, and she had a strong flre blazing against the tree trunk. She rested a short time, relaxing both mentally and physically in the satisfying consciousness that Blake never should know how near she had come to falling in her trust. Soon she became aware of a keen feeling of thirst and hunger. She rose, piled a fresh supply of sticks on the fire, and hastened back through the cleft toward the spring. Around the baobab she came upon Winthrope, working In the shade of the greaC tree. The three leopard skins had been Btretched upon bamboo frames, and he was resignedly scraping at their Inner surfaces with a smooth-edged stone. Miss I^eslie did not look too closely at the operation. "Where is—he?" she asked. Winthrope motioned down the cleft. "I hope he hasn't gone far. I'm half famished. Aren't you?" "Really. Miss Genevieve, it is odd, you know. Not an hour since, the very thought of food—" "And now you're as hungry as I am. Oh, 1 do wish he had not gone off just at the wrong time!" "He went to take a dip in the sea. Yon know, he got. so messed up over the nastiest part of the work, which 1 positively refused to do—" "What's that beyond the bamboos? There's something alive!" "Pray, don't he~~alarmed. It is—er— It's "all right, Miss Genevieve, I assure you." "But what Is It? Such queer noises, and I see something alive!" "Only the vlutures, if you must. know. Nothing else, I assure you." "Oh!" "It is all out of sight, from the spring. You are not to go around the^. .l»amboos until the—that is, not to-day." "Did Mr. Blake say that?" "Why, yes—to be sure. He also said to tell you that the cutlets were on the top shelf." "You mean—?" "His way of ordering yon to rook our dinner. Really, Miss Genevieve, 1 Should be pleased to take your place, but I have been told to keep to this. It is hard to take orders from a low fellow—very hard for a gentleman, you know." Miss Leslie gased at her shapely hands. Three days since she could not have conceived of their being so rough and scratched and dirty. Yet her disgust at their condition was not entirely unqualified. "At least I have something to show for them," she murmured. "1 beg pardon," said Winthrope. "Just look at my hands—like a serv ant'B! And yet I am not neaily so asnanlaa at tfiea s t i - w o u h t n » r e fancied. It ^ ?«i?'ampjrtnf, but do you know, I actually feel proud that I have done lomettilog--^omat^ing \ f s e t u t , * m e a n > :** . V, f "Useful?—I can it shocking, Miss Genevieve. It is simply vile t h a t people of our breeding should be compelled to do such menial work. They write no end of romances about cast ways; but I fail to Bee the romance In scraping skins Indian fashion, as this fellow Blake call* it." "I suppose, though, we should remember how much Mr. Blake is doing for us, and should try to make the best of the situation." "It has no b e s t It is all a beastly muddle," complained Winthrope, and he reaumed his nervous scraping at the big leopard skin. The girl studied his face for a moment, and turned away. She had been trying so hard to forget. He heard her leave, and called after, without looking up: "Please remember. He said to cook some meat." She did not answer. Having satislied her thirst at the spring, she took one of the bamboo rods, with its haggled blackening pieces of flesh, and returned to the flre. After some little experimenting, she contrived a way to support the rod beside the fire so that all the meat would roast without burning. At first, keen as was her hunger, she turned with disgust from the flabby sun-seared flesh; but as it began to roast, the odor restored her appetite to full vigor. Her mouth fairly watered. It seemed as though Winthrope and Blake would never come. She heard their voices, and took the bamboo spit from the fire for the meat to cool. Still they failed to appear, and, unable to wait longer, she began to eat. The cub meat proved far more tender than that of the old leopard. She had helped herself to the second piece before the two men appeared. "Hold on, Miss Jenny; fair play!" sang out Blake. "You've set to without tooting the dinner-horn. I don't blame you, though. That smells mighty good." Both men caught at the hot meat with eagerness, and Winthrope promptly forgot all else In the animal pleasure of satisfying his hunger. Blake, though no less hungry, only waited to fill his mouth before investigating the condition of the prospective tree ladder. The result of the attempt to burn the trunk did not seem encouraging to the others, and Miss Leslie looked away, that her face By Evening She Had Her Tree-Cave in a Habitable Condition. might not betray her, should' he have an inkling of her neglect. She was relieved by the cheerfulness of his tone. "Slow work, tills fire business—eh? Guess, though, it'll go faster this afternoon. The green wood is killed and is getting dried out. Anyway, we've got 1o keep at it till the tree goes over. This spring leopard won't last long at the present rate of consumption, and we'll need the eggs to keep us going till we gel the hang of our bows." "What is that smoke back there?" Interrupted Miss Leslie. "Can it be that the fire down the cleft has sprung up again?" "No; it's your fumigation. You hac plenty of brush on hand, so I heaved it. into the hole and touched it off. While it's binning out you ran put. in time gathering ring grass and leaves for a bed." "Would you and Mr. Winthrope mind breaking off some bamboos for mo?" "What for?" Miss Tveslir colored and hesitated. "I—1 should like to divide off a corner of the place wiih a wall or screen." WInihrope tried to catch Blake's eye; but the American was gazing at Miss Leslie's embarrassed face with a puzzled look. Her meaning dawned upon him, and h*> hastened to reply. "All right. Miss Jenny. You can build your wall to suit yourself. But there'll he no hurry over it. Until the rains begin, Win and I'll sleep out in the open. We'll have to take turnabout on watch at nlfht, anyway. If we don't keep up a flre some other spotted kitty will be a w e t o come seeing up the guiry." • - "There must also be lions In the vicinity," p4ded Winthrope. Miss Leslie said nothing until after the last pieces, of m e a t bad been banded around and Blake "sprang up to resume work. "Mr. Blake/' she called, in ft low tone; "one moment* please. Would it save much bother if a door was made' and you and Mr. Winthrope should sleep inside?" "We'll see about that later," replied Blake, carelessly. The girl bit her Up, and the tears started to her eyes. Even Winthrope bad started off without expressing his appreciation. Yet he a t least Bhould have realized how much it had cost her to make such an offer. By evening she had her tree-cave— house, she preferred to name it to herself— in a habitable condition. When the purifying flre had burnt itself out, leaving the place free from all odors other than the wholesome smell of wood smoke, she had asked Blake how she could rake out the ashes. His advice was to wet them down where they lay. This was easier said than done. Fortunately the spring was only a few yards distant, and after many trips, with her palm-leaf hat for bowl, the girl carried enough water to sprinkle all the powdery ashes. Over them she strewed the leaves and grass which she had gathered while the fire was burning. The driest of the grasB, arranged in a far corner, promised a more comfortable bed than had been her lot for the last three nights. During this work she had been careful not to forget the flre at the tree. Yet when, near sundown, she called the third meal of leopard meat, Blake grumbled at the tree for being what he termed such a confounded tough proposition. "Good thing there's lots of wood here, Win," he added. "We'll keep this flre going till the blamed thing topples over, if it takes a year." "Oh, but you surely will not stay so far from the baobab to-night!" exclaimed Miss Leslie. "Hold h a r d ! " soothed Blake. "You've no license to get the jumps yet a while. We'll have another flre by the baobab. So you needn't wsejry." A few minutes later they went back to the baobab, and Winthrop began helping Miss Leslie to construct a bamboo screen in the narrow entrance of the tree-cave, while Blake built the second flre. As Winthrope was unable to tell time by the stars, Blake took the first watch. At sunset, following the engineer's advice, Winthrope lay down with his feet to the small watch-fire, and was asleep before twilight had deepened into night. Fagged out by the mental and bodly stress of the day, he slept so soundly that it seemed to him he hardly lost consciousness when he was roused by a rough hand on his forehead. "What la it?" he mumbled. " 'Bout one o'clock," said Blake. "Wake up! I ran overtime, 'cause the morning watch is the toughest. But I can't keep 'wake any longer." "I say, this is a beastly bore," remarked Winthrope, sitting up. "Um-m," grunted Blake, who was already on his back. Winthrope rubbed his eyes, rose wearily, and drew a blazing stick from the fire. W'ith this upraised as a torch he peered around into the darkness and advanced towards the spring. When, having satisfied his thirst, he returned somewhat hurriedly to the fire, he was startled by the sight of a pale face gazing at him from between the leaves of the bamboo screen. "My dear Miss Genevieve, what is the m a t t e r ? " he exclaimed. "Hush! Is he asleep''" "Like a top." "Thank heaven! Good-night." "Good-night—er—I say, Miss Genevieve—" But the girl disappeared, and Winthrope, after a glance at Blake's placid face, hurried along the cleft to stack the other flre. When he returned he noticed two bamboo rods which Blake had begun to shape into bow staves. He looked them over, with a sneer at Blake's seemingly unskillful workmanship; but he made no attempt to finish the howrs. won't yojx?.

She »iade a hasty toilet and ran out around .he baobab. The burned tree, enten half through by "the flre, had been pushed over against the cliff by Blake and Winthrope. Both had already climbed up and now stood on the edge of the cliff. "Hello. Miss J e n n y ! " shouted Blake. "We've got here at last. Want to come up?" "Not. now, thank you." "It's easy enough. But you're right. Try your hand again at the cutlets. that strike j r o u ^ • , . . "We h a v e no .way to cook them."

They eaate ftsfck in good time, walking carefully, that they might not hxeak. t h e eggs with which their pockets bulged. Between them, they had brought a round-dozen and a half. Blake promptly began stowing all in the hot ashes, while Winthrope related their little adventure with unwonted enthusiasm. "You should have come with us, Miss Genevieve," he began. "This time of day it Is glorious on the cliff top. Though- the rock Is bare, there is a fine view—" "Fine view of- grub near the end," Interpolated Blake. "As, yes; the birds —you must take a look at them, Miss Genevieve! The sea end of the cliff is alive with them —hundreds and thousands, all huddled together and fighting for room. They are a sight, I assure you! They're plucky, too. It was well we took sticks with us. As it was, one of the gannets—boobies, Blake calls them— caught me a naaty nip when I went to lift her off the nest." "BeBt way is to kick them off," explained Blake. "But the point is that we've hopped over the starvation stile. Understand? The whple blessed cliff end is an omelette waiting for our pan. Pass the leopardettes, Miss Jenny." -When the last bit of m e a t had disappeared, Blake raked the eggs from the ashes and began to crack them, solemnly sniffing at each before be laid it on Its leaf platter. Some were a trifle "high." None, however, were thrown away. W h e n it was all over, Winthrope contemplated the scattered shells with a satisfied air. "Do you know," he remarked, "this is the first time I've felt—er—replenished since we found those cocoanuts." "How about one of 'em now to top off on?" questioned Blake. (TO B E CONTINUED.) HOW BEETHOVEN BECAME DEAF. Injured in Excess of Anger Caused by Importunate Tenor. Beethoven gave the following account of how he became deaf to Charles Neate: "I had to deal with a tiresome and capricious tenor. I had already written two great arias to the same words, neither of which pleased him, and also a third, which he did not care for the first time he tried It, but which he took away with him. I was thanking heaven that I was rid of him and had settled down to something else when In less than an hour I recognized his knock at the door. "I sprang up from my table in such a rage that as the man came in at the door 1 flung myself on the floor as they do on the stage I fell on my hands, and when I got up 1 found I was deaf. The doctor said I had Injured the nerves." Lovers of the great master can occupy themselves thinking of thingB they would like to do to the luckless tenor. Rare Gases In the Air. Samples of pure air from a height of eight and one-half miles have been collected by Teisserence de Fort, the French investigator, in his observations on the rare gases, especially argon, neon and helium. The collecting apparatus—a vacuum tube drawn out to a fine point at one end—was carried up by a large sounding balloon. At the desired height an electromagnetic device operated by a barometer broke off the point admitting the air, and a few minutes later a second contact sent a battery current through a platinum wire around the broken end. melting the glass and sealing the tube. AH samples thus obtained show argon and neon, no helium being found In air from above six miles. Why Musicians Wear Long Hair. "Why do musicians wear long hair?" said the barber. "Pshaw, I thought everybody knew t h a t They wear long hair to protect their ears, of course— their sensitive ears. All depends, with musicians, on the ears, the same as all depends on the eyes with painters And the ears of musicians are delicate, liable to take cold, liable to aches. Inflammations and what n o t So they protect them with long hair, and you have no more right to laugh at. the mane of a pianist or violinist than at the protective shields snd pads of your favorite halfback." Law. Of law there can be no less acknowledged than that her seat Is the bosom of God, her voice the harmony of the world; all things In heaven and earth do her homage, the very least as feeling her care, and the greatest as not exempted from her power; both angels and men and creaturts of what condition soever, though each in different sort and manner, yet all with uniform consent, admlting her as the .mother of their peace and joy.—Richard Hooker. COULDN'T GET SI TO ENTHUSE Hired Man's Remarks Could Hardly Be Said to Be in Nature of of Compliment. ** T h e young lawyer, having been nominated for the office of county attorney, thought to surprise an eccentric genius by the name of Si who was working as a hired man on the young lawyer's father's farm. "Well, Si, what do you think?" the young man began. "Sometimes one thing, Lonny, an' sometimes 'oother." "But, Si, they have nominated me for county attorney." "They might 'a' done worse, Lonny. Howsomever, don't holler till you're out of the woods." The young attorney was duly elected, and on his next visit to the farm announced the fact unctuously to SI, who was at the woodpile, saw in band. "Well, Si, 1 am elected by a large majority. What do you think of t h a t ? " "Well, Lonny, down in our parts where I was raised, when we'wanted a stopper 'n' hadn't any cork, we generally* took a corn cob."—Youth's Companion. THE OBJECT HE HAD IN VIEW Farmer Had Not Much Expectation of Turkeys, But He Was Not Losing Anything. A Rhode Island farmer set a bantam hen on 14 turkey eggs, and great was the scandal thereof throughout the neighborhood. Friends from far and uear dropped in for to see and for to admire the freakish feat. "Sa-ay, Silas," asked envious Hiram Haggers, "haow many turkeys d' yew cal'late ter git outer them ai^s?" "Oh, chucks!" Silas answered. "I ain't cal'latin' t" git many lurkeys. I jest admire t' see that pesky little critter n-spreadin' herself."—Harper's Weekly. COMFORTING.

He says: "I naturally watch the effect of different foods on patients. My own little son, a lad of tour, had been ill with pneumonia and during his convalescence did not seem to care for any kind of food. "I knew something of Grape-Nuts and its rather fascinating flavor, and particularly of its nourishing and nerve-building powers, so T started the boy on Grape-Nuts and found from the first dish that, he liked it. "His mother gave it to him steadily and he began to improve at once. In less than a month he had gained about eight, pounds and soon became so well and strong we had no further anxiety about him. "An old patient, of mine, 7.°. years old, came down with serious stomach trouble and before I was called had got. so weak he could oat. almost nothing, and was in a serious condition. He had tried almost every kind of food for the sick without avail. "I immediately put him on Grape- Nuts with good, rich milk and just, a little pinch of sugar. He exclaimed when I came next, day 'Why doctor I never ate anything so good or that made me fefl so much stronger.' "I am pleased to say that he got well on Grape-Nuts, hut he had to stick to it for two or three weeks, then he began to branch out. a little with rice or an egg or two. He got entirely well in spite of his almost hopeless condition. He gained 22 pounds in two months which at. his age is remarkahlr. "f could quote a list of cases where Grape-Nuts has worked wonders."

One day a neW widow arrived to towp, and the deacon waa almost the nifr inaj^to lear^ of net adVefli! The nine ftxtwrea tshoyJd not be permitted] to eapape crkieisqj. Any one of them could have solved the problem in six months had she gone at It in the proper way. They were watching each other. For Instance, if the Widow Barnes *wa's known to have sent a blackberry pie fresh from the oven over to the deacon, who kept bachelor's hall, the Widow Green hustled herself and serit a strawberry shortcake, and the Widow Black followed it wtth a pair of slippers of her own make. If the Wid- QW Sabin saw him sitting on his porch and smoking his pipe after supper and Btopped at his gate to ask him if be thought it paid to raise hogs in town he would not have time to figure it out before the Widow Blossom would be along to ask him what was the best thing to kill worms on plum trees. The nine widows congratulated themselves on their perseverance and shrewdness. Bach one thought she had the game In her own hands, but each one was destined to learn that she had simply been frittering away her time. There afe widows and widows. There are widows who have heads on them and widows who sit and sigh and wait. The teams transporting No. 10*8 household effects had only driven up to the door of the house she had rented when she appeared before Deacon Thomas, who was working in bis garden, to ask him to come over and settle a disputed point with one of the drivers. He set tied it in her favor, of course. Then his advice was sought as to a cow and other matters, and the seven of the nine widows that came skulking about got no show at all. The deacon went home with a new thought In his rjolnd. Other new thoughts w # e adfted to K nepgr He was hardly through breaJ when No: 10 came ever and asked bitn to take care of $4Ub in cash tor her until *he haft tjttne to drfrt over to the back at Grafton. She sent him to the •tore for carpet tacks, asked bis assistance to put up window curtains, any before noon he had a hammer in hand and was repairing the front fene*. Widows from the list of nine came along and spoke of doofibetng ont 6f order and pumps choked up and what a nice thing it was to have a handy man around, but the deacon didn't take the hints. Next day, with her own house still unsettled, No. 10 walk ed over to the deacon's and drove him outdoors to whitewash the trunks of his apple trees and then put his rooms to rights. She swept and dusted and rearranged and made his bed, and when she went home she carried some of his garments that needed mending or patching. The deacon sat down with his chin on his hands and thought. He had to think. Some of the nine widows passed his gate and halted to ask him this or that, but he was so wrapped up in his thoughts that he failed to see them. Mrs. Graham sent her little boy over with a dish of blackberries for him, but on the way he encountered the boy sent by No. 10 with an angel cake and was crowded Into the ditch and his dish emptied. The next day the new arrival confided to the deacon that she had washed, ironed, baked and put np four gallons of peach pickles in a day; also that she always got a cent a pound mote for her paper rags than any other housekeeper. On the next day she exhibited n railroad bond for $1,000 and said that its keeping so worried her that she sometimes thought of getting married again. On the next day she had the deacon drive her over to the bank, and he saw her deposit actual money and get a check book. On the way home she observed that a man of his general intelligence, with a smart wife to back him, could he elected a county supervisor the next fall as easy aR rolling off a log. On the next day while the nine widows were holding an.indignation meeting at the house of one of the number and had sent for a minister to ask that the past record of the new widow be hunted up and laid bare No. 10 entered the deacon's orchard, where he was still applying the whitewash brush. aad said: "Deacon, I had as ge**l as bOQ«£t the house I moved into, but I got to thinking last night.

He was richer than anybody lit our part of Arizona, and no bank, Ma, circus, or bar ever profited a anlle's worth from the turnings of his pick. We all believed that Mcdbnachie took his winnings back to nature, cached them somewhere in the gorge or under his shanty. He never got drunk nor married, and the eiche didn't leak. Maybe we were rough on McConachie at times. One biasing noon when Sodom was scratching away at the claims and meditating on the soothing night of •eVen-up at Blipfcy Qile's red-eye fountains, there came a sudden boom from up the gorge, and the shiver of air which dynamite always pushes through the cut This was nothing, for McConachie had a way of using powder when things were slow; only, Bertie CoCtton came In to dinner with the word that McConachie's cabin would know the sputter of bacon no more>—<unless somebody else moved in. ' Bertie futhermore testified that a cursory search here and there about the late McConachie's claim had un- '0 "Lckft Tharl" He Whispered. covered bit*, of pulp that bad a human look tp the .extent that the lata McConachie was human. The mourning was brief and then all Sodom, descended on to Mac's claim and started plugging for the cache—all except Thigley, the saint of Sodom, the only living monument of Peter Dudd's gospel. Thigley, untouched ftyjtWs,epiAemi(y>a8 gathering up the fragments. Presently he began Intoning mercy on the remains. Those were doleful doings in the red rock cut, with Mother Mammon tinkling and Sodom's gentle villagers changed to a pirate crew. It all made me feel as if r'was far from home, and headed wrong.0 1 ' "D* ye 'member, Wesley, how we rode ojd Mae qut o' town on a broom handle*tor kJekfeV Tom Steep's dog?" Didsey Questioned. "Tep," I said. That reminded me that the dog referred to had been absent from our midst for several days. "A*4,b4^:we^oetftwd his bacon and plug tobacker with capsicum while he was down to Socoro?" £W* sure was ongentle to old Mac. Waft ••?' *** thought he'd 'a' blowed his head off this way?" Thigley praying so close brought out these reflections. *&* sure wasn't neighborly," i said. A fall hour passed before Didsey br***>o«t again. Thigley was quiet Bodom was turned loose on Mac's elaim like a nest of demons. There i t any love running out of our all the sins, 'o- and corn-mission,' as Thigley says, he suffered at our hands. Only, it would sure make his ghost squirm some and make signs a whole lot—if any of us got warm to the treasure cache." It was full dark when we quit Bertie Cotton was still threshing away in the ruins of the shanty, and had dug a trench and various cisterns on the premises. "Button, button, who's got the buttno?" Didsey called as we passed. The little man swore unctuously. A minute later he called after us In the dark: "I hope you had a pleasant funeral, playmates." Sodom was raw that night; new as a wilderness and bad—bad as hell. Mac'B gold had spun and frazzled our nerves generally. Drink and hate came in. It wasn't like old Sodom. "We'll get out at dawn in the mornin*, Wesley—an early start," Didsey suggested. It was midnight then, and Blinkey Gile was as busy serving as the Kicking Horse Rapids. Sodom was 4ick and old the next morning. Mollie Burns' breakfast languished. The gorsre was filled with dead, sticky heat a °d Mac's memory was blackened considerable far his genius in hiding gold. An idea came to me. "Didsey," I said, "Bertie isn't making it at the shanty, an' we-all are scraping virgin rock here. We're on the wrong hump. I'll bet Mac used his old claim up the river for a cache." "If you're so sure, why in thunder don't you go there and find it?" Didsey snapped. "I guess I will—If that's the way you feel about it," I said, cold and ragged. But I didn't go up the river. I went to Blinkey Gile's, feeling mean and savage and empty. A half-hour later, sitting in Blinkey's, I heard a shot in the gorge; then another. In a few minutes they brought up Andy Craig with a couple of bullets in his shoulder. Andy had: espmesed* an opinion in personal-' terms displacing to^Tom Steep. HJddea tres/mre garnished .with red-eye is thevsagst Aimpie and direct brain-poison known In or out of doors. *Sodom is sure renewing ' her youth," I remarked. ..... "She'll renew it on Mammon water, If she don't behave," Blinkey observed. "She's gettin' so you can't trust her with likker." As I look back on the next five days, I always wish I had a better forgettery. Every little while faithful Memory hands me a fresh episode from that cluster of sorrows, and T see ray bright companions and self rushing to and fro in the ways of darkness. The spirit of brotherhood was ss missing from Sodom in those days as Tom Steep's Mexican poodle. Every dewy eve I would vow to search no omre for the corrupting lucre, now to go back to peace and my playedout claim, picking up my old warm relations with Didsey on the way; but the gold would clutch me fresh in the pearly morn, and the madness thereof. That fifth noon there was a yell from Tom Steep. He had had a dream in the night Tom's soul Is on the surface, any way. Like a pack of starved dogs, we piled on to him, lustful to get our fingers in the g o l d - mad devils all: Didsey and I at war; Andy Craig groaning unattended in a shack up the trail; Mollie Burns cooking grub which nobody had time for; and Blinkey Gile discriminating as to who was fit to take his drink. Poor Sodom!—we weren't true to her those five days! It wasn't treasure; it wasn't tns cache. Tom had only struck a root We pulled back ashamed and relieved. And no on* jpoke. Juat then I happened to-look at Didsey's face. The light had gone out there. Mad, utter mad—and-" our hearts were still at large!. Hs was tearing up toward tbff Gomorrah rim $f the canyon, hfejaw slipped sad streaky white, his eyes wild. Hi* hands tightened on my arm like five sets of ice hooks. "Look thar!" he whispered. I looked and saw McConachie, as in living flesh, Bmiling that twisted, peaked smile and dangling his legs over the gorge. "I guess I'm even with all you playful gents," he said, softly. "I could 'a* stayed away longer, but my heart ttook on hurtln' t' see you overworkin' this way. An' then you didn't mean nothin' by your jokes on poor old Mac. Your ain't bad at heart—just prankish. I used to joke some—so I come back." He slid down into our midst We felt him, and he was there. Didsey was the first to Bpeak.

The division of dead letters is one of the show places of the national capital and is visited annually by thousands of sight-seers. There Is much that appeals to human interest and emotion in the immense stacks &£ letters and parcels received at the rate of 40,000 a day, and containing articles of every description, some of them bearing addresses which can not be deciphered, even by the experts. In the 13,000,000 pieces of mail matter received by the division last year there were 6,000 books, 1,000 pair of eyeglasses, 900 fountain pens, 800 razors, false teeth, marriage licenses, rings, shoes, snakes—in fact, everything from valuable diamonds to penny souvenirs. There was also more, than $65,000 in actual money, and commercial paper, Including checks, drafts, money orders, etc., representing a face value of $2,203,992.— Assistant Postmastetr General De Graw, in National Magazine. Bangor, Me.—Maine's rocky sheop pastures have been filled with great flocks of Southdowns and Sbropshlrce ever since the heavy tariff duties on wool and woolen goods. George Archer's wife recently went to the barn to feed her hens and found a good-sized bear making a dinner off the carcass of a fat ewe he had just killed. Though Mrs. Archer is Boston bred and had never seen a wild animal bigger than a gray squirrel, she looked at the twin lambs whose mother was rapidly disappearing down the bear's throat, and being an orphan herself, caught up the pitchfork and prodded the bear so vigorously that he Tuade a hasty retreat. The next morning Sam Penny found a dead sheep in his yard and plenty of bear tracks. Thomas Hussey lost two sheep the same night, and Joseph Chick four pigs. Fifty hunters surrounded Chick's Hill, where the bear was supposed to be in a cave, and began to smoke him out. The wind spread the flames until the whole hill was in a blaze. By the time the fire was put out they had forgotten about the bear and were glad to go home. Karly the next morning, while the hunters slept, a ^he-bear broke into the sheep pen of George Patten, killed h tat sheep and dragged it off to the woods. A mile from Patten's place she was joined by two cubs and the family sat down to breakfast. Relieving the bear would come back to tho repast the following night a party of six hunters concealed them- Best Way to Clean Silverware. To clean silverware, either solid or plated, use a weak solution of ammonia (20 parts water to one of ammonia) and soap. Rub with a brush and rinse in alcohol. This is for bright or polished finish.- For satin or frosted finish, use tho weak solution of ammonia and baking soda. Wet the brush, rub on the soap, then dip brush Into dry baking soda and scrub the articles thoroughly. Repeat if necessary. Do not use soda nn gray silver, it will make it all the same color.—National Magazine. A novel sentence was imposed the other day up in Windsor, Ont. The governor of the Sandwich jail, having come into conflict with a judge, was declared guilty of contempt of court and was ordered confined in his own prison for ten days.

Occasionally a lusty wind will come tumbling up Rector street and high aloft along the dark sides of the Empire building a newcoming ghost will waver and flop, nettling, soaring and scuttering from window sill to window sill until on a tangent course it sails over to settle among the headstones. Often a ghost will rise from the ranks -fjof the stones, leap the fence and go galloping with the wind down into the canyon of Wall street.

Catching up one and putting it. In the pocket of his hunting jacket, he started full speed down the hill away from the men ou guard, th*-> cub squealing at full lung power. The mother with a plaintive cry started in pursuit. As he entered the open pasture land he turned about, rifle in hand, ready to shoot the old bear if she came out. Something £it his arm, whirling his rifle a rod away, and he was gathered into the great hairy arms of mother bear. They fell, the bear on top, biting holes through Jack's cap and taking up a furrow of scalp with every nip. .lack fro«4 his right arm and caught her by the throat. The cub, squeezed nearly to death by mother's hugs, was yelling lustily, which made his p.irent furious. She clawed a wide r*nt In Jack's canvas coat, digging dorp into the flesh of her offspring. Jack s.iys he owes his life to this act of fury, for no sooner had she discovered she was hurting the cub than she c.-rtKcd hugging. Hnvlng both arms free Jack prulled Ills hunting knife and cut her throat. Inck placed the badly squeezed cub under its mother's nose. She gave T glad cry of recognition, and licked it fondly' until she expired. With the wounded orphan in his arms Jack found the other cub, and, blteding and sore from many flesh wounds.

Under the auspices of the Swedish National League Against Tuberculosis, the International Tuberculosis con* Terence held its annual meeting In Stockholm July 8 to 10. Among the American speakers on the program were Dr. Hermann M. Biggs of New York and Dr. John C. Wise, medical director of the United States navy, who was the official representative of this country. Two subjects of special interest discussed were: "Care of Tuberculous Families, Especially of Healthy Children," and "Tuberculosis and the Schools." Law of Attraction. The attractions of men to women and women to men are full of the moat perplexing inconsistencies and contra* dictions imaginable. It is, for Instance, a physical law that magnetism is not simple attraction of one thing for another, but the difference of two opposing forces of attraction and repulsion, of which the former is the greater. The same law holds in relation to the attraction of men and women for each other, in which, as a rule, the masculine is the superior force.—T. P/s Weekly, London. "A Cheap Skate."

The hay settles in the rack and needs very little pushing down. The grain trough being double or reversible makes it possible always to have clean feeding conditions. It Is found far superior to the single upright trough and is but slightly more expensive. Bokhara Sheep. The department of agriculture Is seriously considering the introduction Into this country of Bokhara sheep, from which comes the fur called Persian lamb. All astrakhan fur Is now ralBed on territory tributary to the Caspian sea. The best fur Is taken from the lamb when it is only four or five days old. The Bokhara * " aheap also makeB good mutton. Oont Paature Too 8oon. There is always a temptation to turn the stock on pasture before the grasrnaa had a chance to get a start. At this time the animals will get little good from the pasture, and they are likely to do much damage in tramping w*t soil. "Let the ground get solid and the grass a good start before they go on It i Whan Piga Cough. Hogs not living in dusty houses that have persistent coughs are, as a rule, suffering from worms.

Have a stout hog-proof wire netting fence built around .the pasture lot, and nothing is more annoying than to have the hogs breaking out and getting Into the corn and grain fields just in the busiest time of day. Examine the fence carefully before turning the hogs in. If of a good grade the shoata will keep in good condition on clover and one pint of shelled grain to each per day. The corn may be gradually increased If they are to be marketed in October. For family pork the corn may be omitted. Give fresh, clean water daily. Feed half corn In the morning, the other half at night. Spread it in a long row on clean sod. There is no better or cheaper way of making pork than with clover pasture and a medium amount of sound corn. WELL-MADE FARROWING PEN. One Provided with Fenders to Prevent the Sow from Injuring the Little Pigs. The illustration shows a view of the corner of a farrowing pen. It la provided with a fender around the inside ¥=¥=¥ mr Well Designed Farrowing Pen. of the pen which keeps the sow from lying up against a partition and killing young pigs, which a large sow will often do. The fenders should project at least eight IncheB Into the pen and allow eight IncheB clear between the fender and the floor. LIVESTOCK NOTES. A damp nest often gives rheumatism. It's poor economy to feed lice upon hogs. Skimmed milk finds its best market in the pig pen. Next year's grain feed should be planned for now. The dairy hog has helped raise many a mortgage. Crowded sleeping quarters often cause disastrous results. The hard coal ashes can be dumped into the hog pen to good advantage. A dollar invested in live stock is worth $S0 invested in mining stocks. Breed straight and improve your stock. Don't be ISd away by some cross-breeding that looks good to you. A short-sighted policy of using a scrub ram is the cause of the inferiority of the average flock on our farms. Winter butter sells at a fancy price, but not when the milk and cream are allowed to collect kitchen and cellar odors. One cross may answer, but in the end cross-breeding becomes a very complicated affair and has ruined more than one flock of sheep. Muszle the horses and pad the outside portions of whiffletrees and harrow when cultivating the orchard; thua*avolding all bruised and "barked" trees. One great value of sheep on the farm is that they destroy brush and sprouts and reduce the crop of weeds. It will almost pay a farmer to keep a small flock of Bheep simply to keep down underbrush vegetation. Parasites on Sheep. Some authorities claim that sheep ought not to be pastured on land more than one year before it Is plowed and reseeded, owing to parasites, but if. has been shown that sheep- have been kept free from parasites by the use of tar, turpentine and salt. Bore twoinch holes in a pine log, fill with salt and smear tar around the top, an'f sheep will tax their noses while eating salt Sheep soon learn to eat tar One sheep raiser keepe it mixed witft turpentine and salt, where it is accessible at all times. About one-half pint of turpentine to one peck of salt is the proper proportion. CARE OF HORSE8. Keep the collars clean and dry. Keep the colt's feet level by rasping. Do not use grease or blacking on the hoofs to close the pores, and prevent the entrance of moisture. It is better never to let horses run on both sides of a wire fence, especially if there la a barb wire at the top. They are„^very apt to fight through or ovary it and are pretty aura to gat hurt •**- m*mimm****rmjt VERY ABRUPT. . Spring Poet—Yea, air; I can write about anything, sir.

Mr. Howells showed that some of the man's boasts were even impious. "He said that these spread-eagle boasters deserved the rebuke that the little child administered to the cackling hen that had just laid an egg. The child, angered by the hen's continuous cawk-cawk-cawk, cawk-eewkcawk- cawk, shook bis little finger at her and said: •"You fink you're smart. But Dod made dat egg. You touldn't help but lay it!'" Have No Use for Pins. All American exporters concerned are warned by Consul General Denby that they'll never get rich by selling pins to the people of Shanghai. "The Chinese have no use for pins," he says, "strings and knots and loops meeting every requirement of male and female, young and old, to keep his or her garments securely and neatly fastened."

In 1789 John Scott, earl of Clon mell, who wag lord chief justice of Ireland, made some insulting remarks from the bench to Mr. Hacket, a membar of tbe bar, who was conducting an argument before him. A geneml meeting of the bar waa called, n severe condemnation of his lordship's conduct voted with only one dissentient and an unprecedented resolution passed that until his lordship pub Hcly apologized no barrister would cither take a brief, appear in the kins'* bench or sign any pleadings for the court. This strike experiment w.i9 actually made. The judges sat, but no counsel appeared, no cause waa prepared, the attorneys all vanished, and their lordships had the court all to themselves. There waa no alternative, and next day Lord Clonmell pu?> llshed a very ample apology by advertisement in the newspapers and made It appear as if written on the evening of the offense and therefore voluntary.— London Law Times. Sneezing. The custom of sa^lnp "God bless you" after sneezing ir.ust be at leapt ns old as the fifteenth century, as u reference to it appears in the fir<\ "edition of Colon's '"Golden Legend." After describing a certAln malady which broke o»it among the early Christians, the result- apparently ni their intemperate habits, Caxton proceeds, "In this manere somtyme they deyed, so that when any ,persone was herd snesyng anone that were by said to bym, God helpe you, or Cryste helpe, and yet endureth the eustome." • curious superstition with regard to sneezing still lingers in the villages of Devonshire. It has found expression in tbe following couplet: Bneese on Sunday morning fastimg, You'll enjoy your own true love to ever- In the highland* of Scotland it is bettered that a aaaposu child is under the) thrall of the fairies oatil it sneezes. mmmmmttm* mm* He Hot Even. mmm SJi i > tmmmmmmmmmmmi • i i » • • «• Off Bio 4a Janeiro a dassn or more ssJiata wart lolling on tbe foreoaatle. « vaa m. atUL clear nlaat a&4 the fall saoon made all aaarly as tigs* as day. «1 seen mote light one nJgflt," said aav with rtnga la his ears. -Oh, come, PhAoaopher Jack.

T* don't know what the earth's hangln' on to, an' y' don't know what becomes of UH when we 'go aloft' "The cap*n o* the Clara Keep was the worst tyrant that ever walked a quarter deck. We was In Bering sea tor seals an' not gettin' any. This made the cap'n wo'se'n ever. He did aothin' but cuss us from sunup till sunset an' durin' the night, too, when he waa on deck. There was one o" I the men, Tom Blake, the cap'n' seemed to hate wo'se'n the rest o' us, a lean, corpse-like lookin' feller with great big eyes that stared like the blinkers' o' a dead man. We couldn't make out whether the cap'n hated Tom wo'se or was afraid o' him wo'se. Leastaways, Tom would look at tbe cap'n out o' them great eyes o' hlsn, an' the cap'n would git Into a passion with him at oncet. But I always noticed that he trembled in his rage. "One day the cap'n ordered Tom to go aloft. The mercury stood 20 degrees below aero, the ship was a-rollln', and the spray was makin' Ice high upon the ratlines, even on to the spars. "Tm so cold,' said Tom, that I couldn't git up there, an' if I did I couldn't hold on.' " *You git up there,' yelled the cap'n, seisin' a belayln* pin, 'or I'll brain / ! ' "Tom went on to the ratlines, an' when he got a Utile ways up he looked down at the cap'n, an' be said, says he: M Tm goln' to my doom, bat I tell y*, Cap'n Tomkina. some day I'll git area with y'!' "He climbed on up the ratlines an' erawled out on to the yard, where the cap'n had ordered him. A big wave struck us, there was a cloud o' ley spray, an* when It cleared Tom was nowheres. "I couldn't make out whether the cap'n was satisfied at glttln' rid o' Tom Blake or whether he felt in the dumps about it. Leastaways he didn't cuss us so much after that an' was kind o' crlngln'-llke. "After spendin' a good while In Bering sea we passed through the •traits. One night we waa beatln' northward Into tbe Arctic ocean. Our latitude was som'eres about 67 degrees north, longitude 170 west, midway ^between Point Hope and Cape Serdze. Well, that's the night I was referrin' to a spell ago. I never seen such nu aurora In my life before. It was a-flashin' an' a-fllckerln' an' a-flutterln'. sometimes like a million o* little while flags or straight searchlights shootin' up to the sky. The cap'n was on deck, an' it seemed to kind o 'terrify him. You see, although it was so light, we couldn't make out nothln'. " 'I believe the devil's tryln' to wreck us,' be said, an', coming down off the poop deck, he went for'ard an' stood on the bowsprit so's he could sec better. "There seemed to be a wbite cloud ahead. Leastaways It looked like a cloud, but with the Aurora dancin' about it wasn't always there. The cap'n stared at It, tryin' to make it out. I stood down on the fo'castle lookin' too. First thing either of us knowed we heard a grind, the bowsprit snapped, an' a lot o' Ice fell on the deck. One chunk that must 'a' weighed a ton struck the cap'n an' knocked him overboard. "We didn't all of usxhear it. Bill O'Brien said he did, but Pete Galloway, who was standln' near as any of ns, says he didn't." "'What, the ice comin'. aboard?' "The ice, no! Out o' the misty lookin' mass It was an iceberg we struck. I heard as plain as I ever heard anything the voice o' Tom Blake sayln' softlike: " 'I'm here; Cap'n Tomkins.' " The speaker paused Not a word wai spoken by his listeners for some moments, awed as they were by the story, when Philosopher Jack continued: "It wouldn't make any difference to me if I was the only one as heard it, but some o' tbe watch did besides me. I thort o' that poor feller sllppln* into the ley sea. an' somehow I knowed he'd got even. "We expected to. find a_Jjole la our oat we dTUu't.

D'4*e think there'* reward an* punishment In the other world without a poor devil bein' able to git a little revenge here? Not much." Whether or no there was anything if value in this argument, it was spoken in such a tone of authority and the men had such unbounded admiration for their philoaopher'B wladoai that aot one dared to gainsay tt or east a ftoubt upon his story.

Thee* are said to have bean introduced by S t Donatac as a aback on tbe Intemperance of his day. Pegs marked the tankard at intervals, f t imill which the drinker was not to go, else he had more than his comrades. But, curiously enough, this device proved .the oseans of aggravating the evil it was Intended to remedy, for as a refinement on St. Dunstan's simple plan tbe most abstemious drinkers were required when the tankard went round to drink precisely to a peg indicated, whether their heads could stand the amount of such "distempering draft" or not. Thence comes the phrase, "He Is a peg too low."—London Spectator. They Do Their Share. Milton complained of his wife that she did not talk to him enough. Three hundred years have wrought a change.

The naturalist, says Mr. Percy Collins, must answer frankly, "I do not know." It Is thought that they bave some utilitarian application, and they form one of the most Intricate of all natural designs. The fact that butterflies have been captured with their eye spots pierced, as if from attack of birds, has been used as an argument in favor of the view that they may be ••protective markings," imitating eyes, because birds strike at the eyes of their victims. But this suggestion Is hardly regarded as satisfactory. Among butterflies tbe most striking examples of eye spots are found on the undersurface of the wings.—Youth's Companion. j aiAaAJAAAAAAAAAAAeeaaAAas "A Fly tsas Untamable as a Hyena.» » • To advertise successfully may aot be easy but tt Is not half so difficult as tbe taming of a fly.

It shows that there was a fad in the good old days as well as now and that there was some "sentiment" among the then young people. "The other morning in the Commercial bank, W. B. Gale was putting a small bunch of dry, faded flowers in a little box. Asked what he was doing, he shoved out the following note: 'This bunch of flowers was picked Snnday morning, June 15, 1878. There were present Miss Susie Fall. Miss MolHe Thayer and W. B. Gale and were at the residence of Charles Knight, Corunna, Mich. A companion hnnoh was picked and each took one promising to exchange them each receiving rear as a token of camtmb ranee.' Each year since 1873 tbe flowers have been exchanged without a mi as, Mias Mollis Tbaysr today is Mr. Gales wife and Mjsi Susie Fall is Mrs. Wm. Shuttleworth of Lansing. Seen year the little) dried-up bouquets carry a message of love, renews and cements a steadfast friendship formed years B. F. Parsons of the Michigan Condensed Milk Co., writes from New York to the Howell papers that they hardly need a ereamery there to compete with the condencing factory. He cites the amount of money paid to the farmers of the county during the past four years and thinks they have treated all fairly and been a benefit to the village of Howell and to the county at large. This is true and io one would for a moment dispute it or for a moment try to block the wheels of the institution. The only reason that other institutions have started up was the fact that too many farmers were be ing cut off from sending their milk for a week every month or so and something had to be done to take care ot it. It is no small thing for a farmer, who has his living tied up in from 12 to 20 cows to have the milk refused for a week every now and then. As for the factory being the only place that will take milk every week day in the year is a mistaken idea as the creamery at Pinckney is fitted op for. AND WILL RUN for twelve months in the year and will take each and IVERY man's milk EVERY DAY in the year except Sunday and NO CUT OUT-?.

The laws relating to the establishment ot drains was considerably changed by the last legislature, among other things providing that an application for locating and establishing or deepening, widening, Btraighting or relocating a drain, shall be signed by one third -of the freeholders traversed by the drain and for cleaning out a drain bat one fourth of such freeholders ii necessary. At present the law requires one-half of Ruch treeholders and ia addition thereto five that are liable to an assessment. It is claimed that under the present law it was impossible to procure drainage particularly in tbe northern counties, on account of the nun resident owners of lands, who of coarse were not interested. It also provides that not more than 25 per cent of the cost of any drain shall be spread upon the townships or cities at large that are benefitted or traversed by the drain, Township boards will hereafter be (»1184 a pen to pass upon the question of approving petitions for drains.

A flaw in the state, pajfoie law which is likely to invalidate the entire measure when the case of Wm. Wlgbtman, convict, reaches the supreme court, was pointed out by Judge Parkinson, of Jackson, In..the circuit court, before whom Wightman first began his habeas corpus proceedings to free himself from the penitentiary, in advising the petitioner to withdraw his suit and start it in the supreme court direct" the judge pointed out that under the present law the prison board practically sentences a convict to several years in prison upon a charge of parole breaking without giving him a hearing or having the case passed upon by any court. This denial of the prisoner's rights to a defense and a judicial hearing Judge Parkinson believes to be unconstitutional, and therefore to Invalidate the whole act. Upon his suggestion Wightman will raise the point before the higher court, pointing out that the charge of breaking a parole involves a question of fact. If the supreme court should coincide with Judge Parkinson it would raise a serious question as to the status of many convicts now at liberty upon parole, or who are serving their maximum sentences in the prisons because they have been charged with breaking their paroles.

Mrs. Prank Crandall, of Flint, deserted by her husband a year ago with her four children, unable to find a house to live in at rent she could pay, has been living in a hired tent which was set up on a vacant field. One of the children is now ill, and the woman, handicapped in securing work, was unable' to pay her tent rent when it fell due last night. The owner of the canvas came at 10 o'clock to demand his money, and when it was not forthcoming, deaf to the pleadings, of the woman for her sialt cfalld, he took down the tent and hauled it away.

"Convicts Captured. Convicts Arthur Noyes and Patrick Sullivan', respectively patient and nurse in the hospital ward of the prison, who made a sensational escape Sunday morning by lowering themselves three stories, 50 feet, to the ground, have been captured in Chicago. Thursday morning Acting Warden Wenger received a tip that the pair were in Chicago, so Secretary Pickett, of the prison, took the first train for Chicago and late in the afternoon wired that the two were under arrest. .

With the peope of the earthquake zone in Mexico trembling in' terror from their experiences in Friday's earthquake shocks, five distinct shocks were felt again Saturday, and the previous damage is said to have been light compared to the eecond day's. All communication was cutoff from Chilpancingo, Acapulco and surrounding towns by the quakes, after it was restored following Friday's shock, but Information of the serious nature of the shock came through before the wires went down. In every Instance the frightened operators at the keys in the stricken towns, .talking to the equally frightened operators in the city of Mexico, declared "The town is completely wrecked" or words to that effect The towns where operators reported that "everything has been destroyed" before the wires went completely are Chilpancingo, Acapulco, Chilapa and Aguala, all in a direct line south of this city. Provldencla Is right between Chilpancingo and Acapulco; and in Rio Balsas, Telopan, Cocoula and many other smaller towns between Chilpancingo and Aguala it is certain the damage has been great. The shocks in the city of Mexico Saturday were more severe than Friday, and not an American and few foreigners remained indoors there at night. At 12 o'clock Saturday the shock was so severe that ail clocks in the City of Mexico were stopped and the street cars were derailed in several localities.

It is still impossible to give a reliable account of the situation in Spain at the present moment. One of the most dangerous features of the case is the fact that a weak and imbecile government persists in using its power to conceal the truth from the Spanish people themselves and the outside world.

The waste flows into C, where a rapid fermentation is immediately set up with formation of a large amount of offensive gas. In consequence, the tank must be tight and supplied with aa air pipe, It. sufficiently long to rise above the roof of the creamery and carry: away all offensive odors. The section of the tank, C, is divided by a partition, F, coming to within a foot of the water line. This forms a chamber that will catch and hold the greater part of the solid matter that comes to the tank until it is decomposed and washed away in a soluble form. When the second day's waste flows into the tank, the partially decompoeed sewage passes into B through the pipe, Q, where the purification is completed by further fermentation. The discharge pipe, 0, draws the liquid from the middle portion, thus leaving the sediment at tha bottom, and tha noatiag matter in C for further action. Tha 'drain, K, also acta in like manner, drawing off only the clear waste from the nvfddle of section B. The outside end of the drain should be lower than the end in the tank so as to act as 'a?'syphon and flush the drain tiles, into which the waste water is led. If possible, the waste should be discharged into a six-inch drain tile laid underground, and sufficiently long to carry the waste away from the creamcry.,.. Jf.the tank Is properly built and operated, the waste water .should not cause any nuisance if discharged into aa open drain. Water and 8hade.

There is quite an agitation among the Danish creamery men to encourage the milk producers to have water tanks mac*6 through which the water used for the stock is pumped, in which the cans of milk are set for cooling. Thia old American scheme la no doubt a great lmprovetaeatv over lettins the cans take care of themselves, but it Would seem that, while one is about it, it would be as well to secure one of the many excellent tubular or other milk coolers whereby the milk is cooled virtually instantaneously to within two or three degrees of the water used. ' If the water pump is set going, be it by hand or power, when milking is commenced, a far better result is obtained than when the cans are set in a tank, where the cooling is much slower, even if the milk is stirred occasionally, which 1B but seldom done. Of cqurse It is desirable to have a tank with cold water in which to place the cans when cooled, but as the pump has to be used anyhow this requires but little extra work. Milk by Machines. The milk was drawn with a milking machine, and SB fast aB it was milked it was passed over a cooler and collected in a large tank, from which it was taken to the dairy in eightquart cans and bottled with the aid of a bottle filler. The samples shown were taken from our bottling table and were the same as the rest of the milk sold. The cream shown was taken from the night's milk; separated while warm, put up in half pint jars and cooled under water.

The instant that Harry Thaw ob- ,talns his freedom, providing Justice Mills decides he is sane, he will Institute proceedings against Evelyn Nesblt Thaw for absolute divorce, that he may avoid further support of the woman. Several conferences have been held between Mrs.. Thaw!s attorneys and the legal representatives of her husband's family. The one subject has been the monetary consideration. Get Out the Buttermifk. One farmer's wife has no trouble to get out all the buttermilk when she churns. She spreadB a yard square of clean cheese cloth, dampened in cold water, over the top of a crock and after the butter and buttermilk have been poured into It she takes the cloth by the four corners and works it hack and forth gently. She soon drains off all the milk and has the butter ready to salt. Selling Butter and Cream. The advantages of selling cream or butter over that of selling while milk are that the skimmed milk and buttermilk can be used for feed on the farm, the work does not demand such exacting care and hours, and the finished product can be marketer at wider intervals with very much less weight to handle. At the present high price of hogs, the skimmed milk and buttermilk are very valuable feeds for pigs. Skimmed milk for this purpose ia worth almost as much as it paid in some places for the whole milk. The hand separator on the farm makes it possible to secure more butter and to get greater value for the separated milk. Care of the SUble. Clean and keep clean the cow stalls and remove the manure to the fields so that there will be no attraction and breeding place for fliea> U tha cow stable is screened and fly-tight, a brush door may be made so that all the flies will be brushed off each cow as she enter* the stable, which will make milking mora pltaaeh* ' A falling meteor is believed to have caused the burning of five barns on the Mills stock farm near Dowaglac.

It ia only common sense, any way —that you must cure a condition by removing the oauBe of the con* ditlon.

The fireworks will start Saturday evening, September 4, and sonHnue five nights, September 6, 1, 8 and 9, discontinuing ^«>f course on : Sunday night, and tbe ljut night of the fair. The horse show, which will also b#4 airea la front or the grand staad, will start promptly at 7:80 o'clock and continue until 8:30. Then the fireworks will immediately begin, the display lasting until 9:30, giving everyone ample time to reach home early. Tha Gregory Fireworks company will prepare a program from high-class material, that is something different f r o * that ever seen before. The program will "be filled with startling things that thrill from,the. opening.of the- program, when a salute ef aerial guns are flred, until the close with the goodnight piece. Among the features will be the grand illumination, when the entire) surroundings are brilliantly illuminated with tri-coiored Bengal lights, changing from red to white to blue. Two moneter fire balloons will follow carrying trails of variegated colored stars. /Figure balloons will then ascend showing the star spangled banner In the sky, air ship, flying fish, pigB, elephans; foxy grandpa, etc. Then will he exploded numerous bombs and rockets reaching an altitude of five thousand feet The "Merry Acrobat" is a humorous piece of mechanical construction showing in outlines of fire, a most realistic production of an acrobat performing m$ny interesting and anauslng feats" on the horlsontal bar. This wonderful ereatioa cannot fail te produce roads of laughter. The (flight of peacock plumed rockets produces a most startling effect, a gorgeous veil of feathery plumes embellished with emerald eommets, spreading out through the air. The "Sultan's Fan" Is one of the most novel and bewildering pieces of pyrotechnic displays- Wfc«m first displayed a beautiful pillar o f trl-eoV ored fire Is seen, wtiieh finally opens into a fan that, when abease, has a spread of thirty feet. .The "Gotten Stinset" Is a mammoth wheel of fire, twenty-ire feet la diameter, the aosoe of twentieth century' creation. This pieee when aMase has a ctrcuxnfeiw&oe of over one hundred feet. The "Girondela" la another stast- Hng effect. This device Is manufactured in fiurope and especially imported by this concern. After making a long flight and descending nearly te the ground, a eeooad flight is made, resulting in thrilling effects. Niagara Falls in fire would seem difficult to produce, but it Is really accomplished by thrs ooncern. The pi*** is forty feet in length and when fn operation has all the appsajranoe and sound of the mighty cataraet Itself. The molten fire, reaching te the ground, rebounds with a splash of silvery mist, creating an inspiring e f feet. Added to this great display, there are set/res of other beautiful pieces that will add to the general fascination. .Rockets and bombav are exploded at the most opportune time to produce startling effects.

The'three were tossed upon an uninnab* ited Island and were the only ones cot drowned. Blake recovered from a drunken stupor. Blake, shunned on the boat, because of his roughness, became a hero as pV»s«rvet Of the helpless pair. The Bngijahman was. suing for the hand of MisFiLeSlle. Blake started to swim back to tne ship to recover wfiat was left. Stake returned4safely. Wlnthrope wasted his last match on % cigarette, for which he wa»» scored by Blake. Their first meal, was a dead rlsh. The trio started a ten mile hike for higher land. Thirst attacked them. Blake was compelled to carry Miss Leslie on account of weariness/, He taunted Wlnthrope. They entered th« jungle. That night was passed roosting high in a tree. The next morning .they descended to the open again,.. All three constructed nats to shield then»- selves from the sun. They then feasted on cocoanuts, the only procurable food. Miss Leslie showed a liking for Blake, but detested his roughness. I^ed by Blake they established a home In some cliffs.

I am still hungry enough to eat more eggs—a dozenthat is, If we had a little salt and butter." "And a silver cup and napkins!" added Blake. "About the salt, though, we'll have to get some before long, and some kind of vegetable food. It won't do to keep up this whole meat menu." "If only those little bamboo sprouts were as good as they look—like a kind of asparagus!" murmured Miss Leslie. "I've heard that the Chinese eat them," said Wlnthrope. "They eat rats, too," commented Blake. "We might at least try them," persisted. Miss Leslie. "How? Raw?" "I have heard papa tell of roasting corn when he was a boy." "That's so; and roasting-ears are better than boiled. Win, I guess we'll have a sample of bamboo asparagus a |e<.Les4ee!" Wlnthrope took the penknife and fetched a handful of young sprouts from the bamboo thicket. They were heated over the coals on u grill of gfeen branches and devoured half raw. ''Say," mumbled Blake, as he ruminated on the last shoot, "we're getting on some for this smell hole of a coast house, and chicken ranch and vegetables in our front yard. We've got old Bobble Crusoe beat, hands down, on the start-off, and he with his shipful of stuff for handicap!" "Then you, beliwtf that the situation looks UKrr© hopeful, Mr. Blake?" "Well, we've at least got an extension on our note for a week or two. But.iin not going to coddle you with a lot of lies, Miss Jenny. There's the feter. coming, sure as fate.

"In the meantime we're like to miss a chance or two of being picked up, Just because we've failed to stick out a signal that'd catch the eye twice as far off as any other color than scarlet. Do you suppose I worked my way up from axman to engineer, and did not learn anything about flags?'1 "But it is all really too absurd!

"The cocoanut fiber would hardly do," Baid Miss Leslie, forgetting to dry her eyes. "No. We could get fairly good fibers out of the palm leaves; but catgut will be a whole lot better.

I fear that nothing of what I learned would be of service now." "Boarding-school rot, eh? And you, Wlnthrope?" "If you would kindly name over what you have in mind." "Urn!" grunted Blake. "Well, it's firat of all a question of a practical— practical, mind you,—knowledge of metallurgy, ceramics, and how to stick an arrow through a beef roast." "I—ah—I believe I intimated that I have some knowledge of archery. But I doubt—" "Cut it out! You'll have enough else to do.

CHAPTER Xik Survival of the Fittest ®m*zm • M M . HE next four days slipped by almost unheeded. Blake saw to it that not oily himself but his companions had work to occupy every hour of daylight Whwn, not engaged in cooking and fuel gathering, Miss Leslie waa learning by painful experience the rudiments of dressmaking. At the start she had all but ruined the beautiful skin of the mother leopard before Blake chanced to see her and took over the task of cutting it into shape for a skirt. But when it came to making a waist of the cub fur, he said that sne would have to puzzle out the pattern from her other one. Between cooking three meals a day over an open fire, gathering several armfuls of wood, and making a dress with penknife, thorn, and cat- «ut, the girl had little time to think of other matters than her work. Wlnthrope had been gazetted as hunter in ordinary. His task waa to keep Miss Leslie supplied with fresh eggs and each day to kill as many of the boobies and cormorants aa ho could skin and split for drying. Blake had changed his mind about taking blm when he went for cocoanuts. Instead, he had gone alone on several trips, bringing three or four loads of nuts, then a little salt from the seashore, dirty but very welcome, and last of all a great lump of clay, wrapped in palm fronds. With this clay he at once began experiments in the art of pottery^ Having mixed and beaten a small quantity, he molded it into little cups and bowls, and tried burning them over night in the watch-fire. A few came out without crack or flaw. Vastly elated by this success, he fashioned larger vessels from his clay, and within the week could brag of two pots suitable for cooking stews, and four large nondescript pieces which he called plates. What was more, all had a fairly good sand glaze, for he had been quick to observe a glaze on the bottoms of the first pots, and had reasoned out that it was due to the sand which had adhered while they stood drying in the sun. He next turned nib attention to metallurgy. The first move was to search the river bank for the brown bog iron ore which he believed he had seen from the farther side. After a dangerous and exhausting day's work In the mire and jungle, he came back with nothing more to show for his pains than an armful of creepers. Late in the afternoon, he had located the haematite, only to find it lying in a streak so thin that he could not hope to collect enough for practical purposes. "Lucky we've got something to fall back on," he added, after telling of his failure. "Pass over those keys of yours, Win. Good! Now untangle those creepers. To-night, we'll take turns knotting them up into some sort of a rope-ladder. I'm getting mighty weary of hoofing it all around the point every time I trot to the river. After this I'll go down the cliff at that end of the gully." Wintnrope. who had become very Irritable and depressed during the last two days, turned on his heel, with the /ook of a fretful child. To cover this undiplomatic rudeness, Miss Leslie spoke somewhat hurriedly. "But why should you return again to the river, Mr. Blake? I'm sure you are risking the fever; and there must be savage beasts in the Jungle." "Thats my business," growled Blake. He paused a momenl and added, rather less ungraciously: "Well, if you care, it's this way—I'm going to keep on looking for ore. Give me a little iron ore, and we'll mighty soon have a lot of steel knives *»nd arrow-heads that'll amount to something. How're' -we going to bag anything worth while with bamboo tips on our arrows? Those boar tusks are a fizzle." "So you will continue to ris* your life for us? I think that, is very brave *ind generous, Mr. Blake!" "How's that?" demanded Blake, not a little puzzled. He was fully conscious of the risk; but this was the first intimation he had received or conceived that, his inotivos were other than selfish—"Tt:»^' «o that's the ticket. Jetting gunero'ifi, eh?" "Not getting—you are generous! When I think of all you have done for us! Had it. not been for you, I am sure we should have dlsd that first day ashore." "Well, don't blame me,- I couldn't have let a dog die that way; and then, a fellqw needs a Man Friday for this sort of thing. As for you, I haven't always had the luck to be favored with ladles' company." "Thank vou.

It will be no trouble, ! fancy, to put up the stakes, with their points inclined toward the entrance." "Bnt why—" "Not BO loud, Miss Genevieve! It struck me that If any one should seek to enter in the night, he would find these stakes deuoedly unpleasant Be careful how you handle them. As you see, the sharper points, which are to be set uppermost, run off Into a raaor edge. Put them up now, before It grows too dark.~ You know how ninepins are set—that shape. Good-night! You see, with these to guard the entrance, you need not be afraid to go to sleep at once." "Thank you," she whispered, and began to thrust the stakes into the ground as he had directed. He had not been mistaken. The vague doubts and fears which she already entertained would have kept her awake throughout the, night, but thanks to the sense of security a£ forded by the sword-bayonets of h«}r' silent little sentries, the girl was soon able tc calm herself, aid was fast asleep long before Blake wakened Wlnthrope. Immediately after breakfast, Blake —who had spent his watch In grinding the edges from a stone and experimenting with split and best, twigs^—put Winthrope's keye in the, fire, and began an attempt to shape them into a knife-blade. To heat the steeli to the required temperature) be used a bamboo blowpipe, with his. lungs for bellows. Wrnthrope turned away with an indifferent bearing; but Miss Leslie found herself compelled to stop and admire his dexterous use of his rude tools.

An old Parisian firm which deals in embroideries and supplied artfsttc needlework to the court of Louis XVI. is still in possession of the accounts of former centuries, and an Inspection of these books reveals some interesting facts. Napoleon I. was economical as compared with the Empress Josephine, but his bills were considerable. The embroidery on his coronation robe cost 10,500 francs, and an embroidered coat cost 3,500. This coat became too -small for him after he had worn it a year, and he ordered pieces of cloth to be inserted at the seams and covered with embroidery. The bill for the flrBt Napoleon's throne amounted to 53.970 france. The outer drapery of purple velvet trimmed with gold lace cost 10,200 francs. The red velvet panels were strewn with embroidered golden bees at five francs apiece. The inner drapery of blue satin, with gold lace, was 9,600 francB, and the gold embroidered stripes for the inner trimming coat 8,500 francs. The embroidery on the blue velvet cushion cost 3,020 francs, and the foot cushion 1,200. In addition there were 1,050 bees embroidered on the panels of the canopy at a cost of 5,250 francs. ! . • • « * I I I . Always Light In the Sky. "The sky," says the Scientific American, "is never dark. This, however, is not due to ths sun, but to the stars. The Milky Way is above the horizon in summer in our latitude, and it gives a great deal of light by night, enough to make the night sky of that time brighter than when It is not a part of our night sky, as is the case In winter. , Then, too, the stars which cannot be seen by the unaided eye give us much light. The stars which are not visible to the eye give more light than those which are visible." Would Not Have It Lesstned. Dr. Walter C. Smith, the popular Scotch poet-preacher, on one occasion tried to explain to an old lady the meaning o. the scriptural expression, "Take up thy bed and walk," by saying that the bed was simply a mat or rug easily taken up and carried away.

Yes, candidly. I waa surprised, and so waa Mr. Sidney White, who waa with me. Mr. White is aa American who has spent more years of his life in Paris and abroad than under the roof of his mother. He was an artist,—an artist who, as he confided to me once, was trying his beat to fall aa much In love with a;woman as he was with Art. Take toy «word for it, he had that something that goes into the maklnJoM tutsjfxartlat, that all-ab* •orbing sameteJpFwhlch made him by turns a fool and a god; he had that idolatrous adoration for the beautiful; that contempt of everything common.

"Well, she is not a beautiful study, but she > as .bright' as a Buddha's eyes—I mean her mind. You ought to come and see her.1' Yes, t found out that she had learned nuay aa English word. "Say the first sentence I taught you for us, O Tome-san." White said in Japanese. Then the olive velvet of her cheeks beccame a warmer color, and a smile made her lips like an opening bud. Then slowly she said,— "I—love—you,—Sidney." The last syllable was in the merry ring of her laughter. I saw him often teaching her English sad French. In those happy hours he looked like a male mother mad with ecstasy over the first faltering words of his baby. He was very proud of her; and day by day she rewarded him with the discovery of the hidden treasures of her simple heart Twice winter chained water; twice spring set it free and gave it songs; twice chrysanthemums decked their little garden; and they fanned away two summers. They were too much in love to think of marriage—if that •/ere possible. Those were happy days for him— tor' her. i i O Tome was her name. O Tome became an object of study to Sidney. Then, a short time afterwards, the object of study—not only artistic but also—From the very start. O Tome was a thing 6t beauty to him, and in the course of time a joy forever as Veil, When, therefore, about % a oonth afterwards I went up to bis studio I was not surprised to see it converted into a huge multlfaced mirror of O Tome —©very pose of her figure, every expression of her features, the innumerable blendinga of her many moods, were caught in all the conceivable cunning of colors. "Am I really as pretty as that White-san?" "Very, very much more beautiful, mademoiselle!" "And my hair—and oh, but my eyes, are they softly dreaming as they are yonder?" "That? Why, that is nothing but a shadow; that is nothing but a picture, like a picture on a temple wall, —a picture of a goddess, you know. One can look at a picture, not the goddess-—the original is too dassling!" O Tome, who was not sure whether she understood this poetic ambiguity of the artist smiled as if to say, "The best thing I can do for you Is to pretend that I believe all that yoa say." "But, really, W>ite-sanf, does your humble maid. pleas* her master. thaan,.,,; ", "Hush, sweet one; you should rath* er say that your slave worships, his idaal." -**'f '*»•'• •«•'*»• •••• ' "What do you think X bays found Then there came a'little piece of paper into that studio—to that nest to speak more correctly, of Art and a couple of spring buds. Upon that paper was a message that came from the other side of the world. Since the' receipt of it Sidney White was never the same man. And poor O Tome only wondered. It was rude, to her Japanese way of thinking, to ask many things of a man, and then, if he loved her, he would tell her all she ought to know without her ever asking. So She was silent—sad, because he waa sad., "Coins with me, O Tome-san," he said to her one morning. "Where are we going?" "I have found a nest for you. And I want to see if you like it or not." And they walked up the hill side of Kobe City. "You see, sweetheart," he explained to her, "I have always thought that you would like to have a cottage all your own. And I think I've found It. We'll furnish it as you like, and there you can do whatever you want. I will come and see you there very often, and we won't be bothered with people who come to my studio; for I am going to keep my studio as It is." They saw the cottage, whose veranda laughed full-mouthed towards the entrance of the famous inland Sea of Japan. O Tome was delighted with it. It was arranged that everything would be put in order within a week, and at the end of that time O Tome was to move into it. "But why don't you move your studio, too? I miss the pictures so much," she said to him. "Oh, sweetheart, you will have all the pictures you want. You see, I don't want any of my studio friends bothering us at the cottage." It was about seventeen days since Sidney White-received * cablegram stating that kk parents would bring out his wKs>wttH them to Jot* bin fat Japan, where he seemed to* be making such a prolonged study. Sidney expected them Seven days ahead. O tome wa*,to move to her aew cottage four days hence, She could, speak English fluently now, and nothing charmed the artist as the hooey words from hot lips. Her head nestling in his breast her left ana around his neck, and the fingers of her right hand golag astray in the mass if hi* hair, making the long, wavy locks ripple like the gnfdea surface of a suaUt sea, she was^inur* muring: "Dear, you have such pcetty hair; it's like the halos of saints you paint" There was the sound of many steps in the ball. The housemaid never allowed anyone to enter the studio without seeing if the artist were ready to receive a visitor. But this time the steps came steadily towards the door of the studio. Just as O Tome leaped off the lap of Sidney the door flew open. There was a vigorous swish of a skirt "Sidney!" exclaimed a stronger voice than the dreamy melody of O Tome's throat And he was lost behind the flutter and whirl of foreign millinery. A resounding kiss. "Great Heaven, Kate!" gasped a husky voice. A surprise party, my boy! his father in the door-way. surprise you I—ha! ha! ha!" Mrs. White released him at last She turned round to signal the old people to follow her example. The slim figure of O Tome stopped her eyes. At once they flashed back at Sidney and found him ashy, all in a tremor. Something hard entered the blue of her laughing eyes. "Pray* who is that Sidney?" Her voice sounded like the breaking of an icicle. Sidney was a human flame in an instant. He stammered. "Husband, for Heaven's sake—" cried the lady, and then, turning to O Tome roughly: "Who are you?" "I am just his model, madam," she said quietly in English with her head down. Mr. White wanted to paint me." She walked out noiselessly. That was the last time Sidney White saw O Tome. Yes, he is hunting for her now—ever hunting.

Pie alone, or SB a prelude or postlude to appropriate viands, Is the perfection of feasting. It may be grace before meat or after, but it is always a benediction, a blessing. There are travesties of pie, but of them we do not speak. Pie that Is worthy the name, pie that is pie, is the light that never was on sea or land of Cockaigne, the consecration, and the poet's dream of fast breaking—the fine fancies of transcendentalism were nourished on pie for breakfast It is heaven's best gift to man. We do not know exactly what the ambrosia of the immortal gods may be, nor their nectar either, but there is reason to believe that the Olympian bill of fare is the pie and milk of mortals. At least, it is beyoad mortal mind to imagine a more excellent menu^ and the perfection of pie itself is its aU-aacirollag outer edge of crust If the appreciation of pie is to begin at its crisp circumference, why are pies divided lata wedges? The instinct of the rase is sound upon this poiat and la the convincing answer. A pie is not made; it grows under the hands of genius, and its periphery is the finishing touch of creation. It is the last word in pie. The apex of a wedge of pie is the alluring overture to a crescendo of delight which reaches its climax In the "crust end," and as this crust becomes part of oneself one knows what pie Is for. The "crust end" is the final cause of pie itself, its raison d'etre, the solution of the blissful riddle, why is pie. It is the last act of the play with a happy ending, the concluding chapter of the romance in which they lived happily ever afterward. It la that which whets the appetite for another wedge. It tastes like more.—New York Evening Sun. Cheerlness. Cheerlnesa is a thing to be more profoundly grateful for than all that genius ever inspired or talent ever accomplished.

IULULIM ssaes SHOOTING 9TKAYO0O1. The reports of th*^pe^Hf'T6r',Tae io^kflllns aeaaon 1» several elite* aif replete with bruttfltj. -«:_Tbe police* usee shoot at all the' proscribed ca- :ames, aiid in juiaaing them, which' i* utteaer the-, ease than not, tfeey are apt to destroy the Uvea of men, women and children, who; may happen to be within pistol range. If the bullet hits the dog at all, it pretoetJty wound! the poor brute, and makes' an otherwise safe and sane dog a writhing, foaming creature, mad' from fear and pain, and scattering alarm and disgust wfcerever It may run or drag Ita tortured body, says the Waahington Post. E^ven when .the, pajicejcnaii la marksma'ri^rfougfi M dispatch the dog without Buffering or .scattering bullets among pedestrians, the killing is oJKensiveUo the sight of every human beinj^wlth a spare! of feeling and la brutalizing to impressionable children. In the midst of the heat and semihysteria which may be expected from the dogs and dog dayil Washington is to, be congratulated? thus far in not resorting to the pistol for the removal of friendless and homeless dogs. Whatever crusade may be nesessary to reassure the nervous and protect the people from unlicensed or otherwise * * outlawed dogs, let there be no turning to the policeman's pistol as a means of mending the situation. A justice of the supreme court of the state has publicly accused the* police force of New York city of arbitrary and illegal abuse of police powers, and called them so severely to account that their methods are now under investigation by the mayor. If there is anything inexcusable in a government like this it is the disregard of personal liberty and constitutional rights by the very forces created by the law to protect that liberty and enforce those rights, says the^Baltimore American. Unfortunately, there is too much ignorance, both by public officials of the limit of their powers and by citizens of their own legal rights. More under- Ktanding of the one and assertion of the other vastly improve the situation. This season of severe hot waves, which may be expected to recur, off and on, tiki fall, is one for the special exercise of mercy in various ways. To all human beings who are compelled to labor in various ways In the heat kindness and consideration on toe part of the public will pifeven* much ^suffering. Working animals should be spared the whip and their burdens lightened as much as possible. The various charities for supplying fresh air by country and water should be liberally supported, for they mean the saving of many lives. In short, never is there a time of year when the Golden Rule needs more practical application The steady growth of the country in business activity is shown again in the figures relating to new incorporations for June. Papers filed for concerns with an authorized capital of 91,000,000 or more each represented a total of 1212,575,000, which was an increase of $16,810,006 over May, and $24,411,000 over June of last year. Moreover, the aggregate for the six month ended with June was $723,948,- 000 this year, against $649,636,000 last year. The report tells its own story on increasing industrial operations and of provisions to meet the enlarged demands of the people. Zeppelin has raised the enthusiasm of Germany to a high pitch by his spectacular demonstrations with his inventions for navigating the air. The Wright brothers, working along altogether different lines, have attained results which command respectful attention from students of the art of flight in all parts of the world. The presentation to them of gold medals' awarded by the Aero Club of America evinces the interest which their countrymen take in their work, and will no doubt tend to encourage them to further efforts. The most remarkable fiah itory of the season comes from the Catskills. It relates the tale of a man who, to work off a lazy streak, went out fishing and returned within an hour with a sturgeon which gave 68 pounds of caviar, for which he • aeeeived $100.

Probably the, awet marked reductions throughout any tchedule In the bill aa a result of the action of the two houses and of the conference committee are found m the metal schedule.

The only change is a reduction on "schmaschen" gloves not over 14 inches in length on which the rate i|v made $1.25 a dozen pairs Instead of $1.75. Miscellaneous Provisions. A provision 1B included in the bill which levies on all articles upon which any foreign^ country pays a bounty or grant upon Its exportation, an additional duty equal to the amount of such bounty. It is required that all imported articles capable of being marked without impairment of their value shall be stamped with the name of the manufacturer and the coantry of origin. A very elaborate provision for the administration of the customs lawa was adopted by the conferees. It la practically the same as that adopted by the senate. It is intended to prevent undervaluation of articles ~" on which there is no foreign market by which true values may be ascertained. Provision is made for the establishment of a customs court of appeals, with headquarters in Washington. It will comprise a presiding judge and four associate judges, at salaries of $10,000 a year. There are to be appointed to conduct government cases before this court a special assistant attorney general at $10,000, a deputy assistant attorney general at $7,500, and four attorneys at $5,000 each. The internal revenue tax on tobacco is amended, making the rates on chewing and smoking tobacco eight cents a pound.

The rates on cigarettes were increased to $1.25 per 1,000. A prohibition againat the UBS of coupons or special gift pledges la incorporated in the new law. The provision granting farmers the free sale of leaf tobacco^ places a restriction on the retail dealer which requires him to record every sale amounting to two pounds or more to one person in one day. A number of other ironclad requirements are included in the redraft of this section adopted by the conference committee, by which it waa intended to prevent any frauds upon the internal revenues, and at the same time give aa much of a local market at possible to the tobacco grower. . The grower had contended for unrestricted sale of amounts up to ten pourts. $B , JT«reign*uiU ynehta ar* -su^ect to *n excise tax ef »e>M d^lars , par fiea tonVwJUch hi to*!* collected anaAft <* t% *r*4 day*rf'J*»tsV»ber- «*» °* * • e x ^ a e ^ w , A e owner 5* vf «PreltjfcjbuJUVisaW ,«lt J$msV boat may pay a duty of M per ceat MJOBJMM* on hie yacht This wlB entiuenlm to American registry. The exciae tax .provision waa adopted because of the fact that eome question haa beea raised about the ability of the government to enforce collection of import duties. ^. ' .. Corporatloa Tax. , w Cheery corporation, Join* atook #QKK paay o* association- organised .for profit, and every insurance company is required to pay annually an exciae tax of one per cent, upon ita entire net income over and above $5,000. This feature waa put into the bill to raise additional revenues to apply on the treasury deficit The section waa prepared by Attorney General Wicker* eham, assisted by, other able lavfyere in the administrative eiz$le, and great care waa taken, to guard againat double taxation. It provides a form of publicity which will enable the government to exercise supervision over corporations. The form of returns which must be made by corporations, and other features of the corporation tax law were made public in detail during Ita consideration lu the senate. It ia estimated that from $20,000,000 to $30,000,000 a year will be collected under this form of federal taxation. The, secretary of the treasury la authorized to issue Panama canal bonds to the amount of $290,569,000, which sum, together with that already expended, equals the estimated cost of the Panama canal. It is not intend-, ed that the bonds shall be issued except aa needed to provide money to carry on the work of canal construction, . The bends are to-be payable 50 years from the date of issue, and will bear interest at a rate not exceeding three per cent. When the bonds are sold the secretary of the treasury will restore to the working balance the $50,000,000 paid originally for ( the canal property and the canal zr je. The re-enactment of the provision authorizing the issuance of treasury oertlfidBvtes for money borrowed to meet public expenditures, increases the amount of the authorisation from $100,000,000 to $200,000,000. A large number of other provisions that are in force under the existing tariff law are included in the conference bill, with a few changes in phraseology in several cases. The drawback provialon of the Dingley law is Incorporated in the conference bill in lieu of the drawback of the house bill which intended to permit the substitution of domestic material in the manufactured article for export to the same quantity that the imported material, upon which a d£%wl?*c& w a s obtainable, waa uaed. In tne manufacture of similar articles for domestic consumption. An additional provision was adopted entitling users of domestic alcohol In the minufacture of perfumery and cosmetics to secure a drawback of internal revenue tax to the amount of alcohol uaed in an exported article. Senate Ideas Accepted. Practically all the administrative features of the bill which were adopted in the senate were acoepted by the conferees. They include a new maximum and minimum feature, a corporation tax law instead of the inheritance tax adopted by the house, authorization for a bond issue to raise money to build the Panama canal, as well as numerous other features. The maximum and minimum provision prescribes duties in accordance with the rates named in the dutiable list until March 31, 1910, when 25 per cent, ad valorem is to be added automatically as the maximum duty. The president is authorized to apply the minimum rates, however, to imports from a country which given its best rates to the products of the United States and is made the judge as to whether a foreign country accords to the United States treatment which is reciprocal and equivalent When he finds that this condition exists he is to issue a proclamation putting in effect the minimum rates and until the time of the proclamation the maximum rates will apply. The president is empowered to employ such persons as may be required to secure Information to assist the president in the discharge of the duties Imposed upon him and information which' will be useful to the officers of the government in the administration of the customs laws. The reciprocity treaty with Cuba la not affected by the maximum and minimum provision. The president is empowered also to abrogate those reciprocity treaties which can be terminated by diplomat* lc action. It la made his duty to give 10 days' notice after the bill becomes a law of hia intention to bring those treaties to aa end. All other treaties which contain no stipulation in regard to their termination by diplomatic action shall be abrogated by a notice of six months from the president to those countries, the notice dating from April SO, 1909, on which date Secretary-Knox notified; foreign gov* ernmente that the United States would aooa ask them to enter into new tariff relation*. r ^ W ^ d r y a / v Them It a watW fa44fs»*m tfearfto .:ity as a result e4-the- iffit|flttfle i. bocka srhlch injured the. mama.

One after another, the keys were welded together, end to end, in a narrow ribbon of steel. The thinnest one, however, -was not fastened to the tip until it had been used to burn a groove In the edge of a rib, selected from among the bones which Miss Leslie had thrown out of the baobab. The last key was then fastened to the others; the blade ground sharp, tempered, and inserted in the groove. Finally, pieces of the keyring were fitted in bands around the bone, through notches cut in the ends of the steel blade. The result was a bone-handled, bone-backed knife, with a narrow cutting edge of Une steel. Long before it was finished Miss Leslie had been forced away by the requirements of her own work. In faot, Blake did not complete his task until late in' the afternoon. At the end. he spent more than an hour grinding the handle into shape. When he came to show the completed knife to Miss Leslie, be was fairly aglow with justifiable pride. "How's that for an Eskimo job?" he demanded. "Bunch of keys and a bone, eh?" "You are certainly very ingenious, Mr. Blake!" "Nlxy! There's little of the inventor in my top piece—only Borne hustle and a good memory. I was up in Alaska, you know. Saw a sight of Eskimo work." "Still, it is very skilfully done." "That may be— Look out for the edge! l t d do to shave. No more bamboo splinters for me—dull when "yo*j.blt a piece of bone. I'm ready now tonkin a rhinoceros." "If you can jcatch one!" N"aues8 we could . find enough of them around here, all right. Put we'll start in on some of Win's sheep -an* eattle." "Qjh, do!

I'll give odds; though, that we -draw a. blank. Win's got the aim, but no drive; I've got the drive, but no aim'. Even if I hit an antelope, I don't think a bamboo-pointed arrow would bother him much." 'Don't the savages kill game with out Iron weapons?" "Sure; but a lot have flint points, and a lot of others use poison. I know that the Apaches and-some of those- other southern Indians used to fix . Jheir arrows with rattlesnake poison."

As it Is, though, I guess you'd rather have me for boss, and live, than be left all by your lonesomes, to starve." "I—I'm sure there is no question of your leadership, Mr. Blake. We have both trfed our best to do what you have asked of us." "You have, at least. But I know. It a ship should come to-morrow, it'd be Blake to the back seat.

Miss Leslie flushed crimson— "I'm sure, Mr: Blake—" "Oh, don't let that worry you, Miss Jenny. It don't me. I couldn't be sore with you if I tried. Just the same, I know what it'll be like. I've rubbed elbows enough with snobs and big bugs to know what k4nd of consideration they give one of the mahssea— unless one of the mahsses has the drop On them. Hello, Win! What's kept you so late?" "None of your business!" snapped Winthrope. Miss Leslie glanced at him, even more puzzled and startled by this outbreak than she had been by Blake's strange talk. But if Blake was angered, he did not show it. "Say, Win," he remarked gravely, "I was going to take you down to the pool after supper, on a try with the bows. But I guess you'd better stay close by the fire." "Yes; it is time you gave a little consideration to those who deserve it," rejoined Winthrope, with a peevishness of toae and manner which surprised Miss Leslie. "I tell you, I'm tired of being treated like a'dog." "All right, all right, old man. Just draw up your chair, and get all the hot broth aboard you can stow," answered Blake, soothingly. "I'm Unprepared to Climb Precipices, Even Ttiougn My Costume Is That of a Savage." Winthrope sat down; hut. throughout the meal, he continued to complain over trifles with the peevishness of, a spoiled child, until Miss Leslie blushed fox him. Greatly to her astonishment, Blake endured the nagging without a sign of irritation, and in the end took his bow and arrows and went off down the cleft, with no more than a quiet reminder to Winthrope that he should keep near the Are When, shortly after dxirk, the en gineer came groping his way hack up the gorge, he was by_ no means so calm. Out of six shots, he had hit one antelope in the neck and another In the haunch; yet both animals had made off all the swifter for their wounds. *' The noise of his approach awakened Winthrope, who.turned over, and began to complain in a whining falsetto.

The Mark of the Beast. ORNINCr found WUthrope more Irritable and peevish than ever. Though he had not been called on watch by Blake utrtfl lofig after midnight, he had soon fallen asleep at his post and permitted the fire to die out Shortly before dawn, Blake was roused by a pack of jackals, snarling and quarreling over the half-dried seafowl. To charge upon the thieves and put them to flight with a few blows of his club took but a moment. Yet daylight showed more than half the drying frames empty. Jj •• • * • • -> Blake was staring glumly at them, with his broad back to Winthrope, when Miss Leslie appeared. The sudden cessation of . Wlnthrope's complaints brought his companion around on the instant. The girl stood before him, clad from neck to foot in her leopard-skin dress. "Well, I'll be—dashed!" he exclaimed, and he stood staring at her open-mouthed. "I fear It will be warm. Do you think it becoming?" she asked, flushing, and turning as though to show the fit of the costume. "Do I?" he echoed. "Miss Jenny, you're a peach!" "Thank you," she said. "And here is the skirt I have ripped it open. You see, it will make a fine flag." "If it's put up. Seems a pity, though, to do that, when we're getting on so fine. W'jat do you say to leaving it down, and starting a little colony of our own?" Miss LesW raised ttfe skfrt In her outstretched hands. Behind it her face became white as the cloth. "Well?" demanded Blake soberly, though his eyes were twinkling. "You forget the fever," she retorted mockingly, and Blake failed to catch the quaver beneath the light remark. "Say, you've got me there!" he admitted. "Just pass over your flag, and scrape up some grub. I'll be breaking out a big bamboo. There are plenty of holes and loose stones on the cliff. We'll have the signal up before noon." Miss Leslie murmured her thanks, and immediately set about the prep aration of breakfast. When Blake had the bamboo ready, with one edge of the broad piece of white duck lashed to it with catgut as high up as the tapering staff would bear, he called upon Winthrope to accompany him. "You can go, too, Miss Jenny," he added. "You haven't been on the cliff yet, and you ought to celebrate the occasion." "No, thank you," replied the girl. "I'm still unprepared to climb precipices, even though my costume is that of a savage." "Savage? Great Scott! that leopard dress would win out against any set they're considered all kinds of dog. Come on. I can swing you into the branches, and it's easy from there up. "You will excuse me, please." "Yes, you can go alone," interposed Winthrope. "I am indisposed this morning, and, what is more, I have had enough of your dictation." "You have, have you?" growled Blake, his patience suddenly come to an end. "Well, let me tell you, Miss Leslie is a lady, and if she don't want to go, that settles it. But as for you, you'll go, if I have to kick you every step." Winthrope cringed back, and broke into a childish whine. "Don't—don't do it, Blake— Oh, I say. Miss Genevieve, how can you stand by and see him abuse me like this?" Blake was grinning as he turned to Miss Leslie. Her face was flushed and downcast with humiliation for her friend. It seemed incredible that a man of his breeding should betray such weakness. A quick change came over Blake's face. "Look here," he muttered "I guess I'm enough of a sport to knew something about fair play. Win's coming down with the fever, and's no more to blame for doing the baby act than he'll be when he gets the delirium, and gabbles." "I will thank you to attend to your own- affairs," said Winthrope. "You're entirely Welcome. It's what I'm doing— Do you understand, Miss Jenny?" "Indeed, yes; and I wish to thank yon. I have noticed how patient you have been—" "Parde* me, Mrs* "Leslie," rasped Winthrope.

If you do a fair job, maybe I'll employ you as my cobbler, soon as I get the bide off one of those Bkittish. antelope," jMias Leslie nodded and smiled in response to his jesting tone. But as he swung away after Winthrope, she stood for some time wondering at herself. A few days since she knew she would have taken Blake's remark as an insult. Now she was puzzled to find herself rather pleased that he should so note her ability to be of service. When she roused "herself, and began singeing the hair from the odds and ends of leopard skin, she discovered a new sensation to add to her list of unpleasant experiences. But she did not pause until the last patch of hair crisped close to the half-cured surface of the hide. Fetching the penknife and her thorn and catgut from the baobab, she gathered the pieces of skin together, and walked along the cleft to the ladder-tree. There had been time enough for Blake and Winthrope to set up the signal, and she was curious to see how it looked. She paused at the foot of the tree, and gazed up to where the withered crown lay crushed against the edge of the cliff. The height of the rocky wall made her hesitate; yet the men, in passing up and down, had so cleared away the twigs and leaves and broken the branches on the upper side of the trunk, that it offered a means of ascent far from difficult even for a young lady. (TO BE CONTINUED.) TO SEND BACK SHIP'S SOUND8. Experiments with New 8afety Device for Foggy Weather. The United States government is experimenting in San Francisco bay with a safety device for foggy weather which is remarkable in the uniqueness of its idea. It is nothing less than a fog buoy which will make no noise of its own, but which will be expected to catch the sound waves of a vessel's whistle and echo them back across the water. The buoy, or structure, Is constructed of corrugated iron sheeting, placed on piles, and built In three wings placed at different angles. Each wing is 32 feet square. The idea was given birth accidentally. There has always been much trouble in the upper part of San Francisco bay because the shore lights cannot be seen when the weather is bad. Pilots and skippers began to notice, however, how clearly the corrugated steel warehouses around Benicia returned the sound of their whistles, and for some time have been guiding their way along by the echoes. The government is confident that the new buoys will act in the same manner. A*-*A*W.WAV* WAS NO PLACE FOR LUCINDA. Unfortunate Reference to "Ha'nts" Drove Colored Maid Forth. When the southern lady left town and moved to, the old manor house of her ancestors, she was accompanied by her maid. "And now, Lucinda," remarked the mistress, as she showed the maid through the gloomy old mansion, "her* are the haunts ot my great-grandparents." The next day Lucinda packed her trunk and started for the station. "But what in the world is the matter?" demanded her mistress, in surprise. "Haven't we treated you right?" "Oh, yes," assured Lucinda, keeping an eye on the dark, wide hallways. "Then why in the world are yon leaving without notice?" "Ah can't help it, missus; Ah can't help it. Ah couldn't think ob workin' any place where dere was ba'nts." Revealing Ancient History.

Every day sees hundreds of new recVuits in the war against tuberculosis, and every day brings new methods for the fighting of the plague. The National association predicts that if the present degree of interest is maintained, within five years everybody in the United States will have been informed on the way to prevent and cure tuberculosis, and concerning the infectious nature of the disease. Two things*in particular are needed, and tor these the National association is working in every way. They are, a more complete registration of tuberculosis cases, and the further isolation of dangerous advanced cases of consumption. ON FOOD The Right Foundation of Health. Proper food is the foundation of health. People can eat improper food for a time until there.is a sudden collapse of the digestive organs, then all kinds of trouble follows. The proper way out of the difficulty is to shift to the pure, scientific food, Grape-Nuts, for it rebuilds from the foundation up. A New Hampshire woman says: "Last summer I was suddenly taken with indigestion and severe stomach trouble and could not eat food without great pain, ray stomach was so sore I could hardly move about. This kept up until I was so miserable life was not worth living. "Then a £ 4 e i d finally, after much argument; induced me to quit my former diet and try Grape-Nuts. "Although I had but litttle faith I commenced to use it, and great was my surprise to find that I could eat it without the usual pain and distress in my stomach. "So I kept on using Grape-Nuts and soon a marked improvement was shown, for my Btomach was performing its regular work in a normal way . without pain or distress. "Very soon the yellow coating disappeared from my tongue, the dull, heavy feeling in my head disappeared, and my mind felt light and clear; the languid, tired feeling left, and altogether I felt as if I had been rebuilt Strength and weight came back" rapidly and I went back to my work with renewed ambition. "Today J am a new woman in mind as well as body, and I owe it all to this natural food, Grape-Nuts."

Generally the reason the price is high is because he hasn't very much of the grain, anyway. What he has is very apt to get away from him before the glittering figures are reached, too. The speculator is the fellow who gets the most of the consumers dollars. Teacher's Examination Aug. 12-14.

Ohaa. Al Sheldon, author of "In His Steps" whioh circulated by the hundreds of thousands) all over the English speaking world.. It was i n March, 1900. Paul's father was a retired Methodist minister and the family lived on a fruit farm about 12 miles from Grand Bapids. "Why, here is what I want,* said Grace, after she had looked over the paper. "Here is some one who says he teaches short hand successfully by mail, and claims to have a very easy method. I'll investigate at onoe." And several days afterward Bhe received circulars and a letter from the shorthand teacher. She had a typewriter and the prospects of learning stenograhy without being obliged to leave home was attractive to her. Within a few days she had received her text books and her first lesson, whioh was really a personal letter to her, written in shorthand. She managed to study out nearly all of it and writing it in longhand sent it to the teacher, also writing a letter in short hand as requested by him. Imagine a letter written to you in shorthand; would you not be interested to know what it contained for you, and would you uot dig it out if you could? Grace was a busy young lady as most girls on the farm have to be. But she was determined to learn, and therefore it was not so difficult to find the time after all. The trouble with most of us is not that we do not have the time but that we have not learned how to use the time we have. When Grace wrote to her teacher: "I have studied out this lesson while churning the butter at 5 o'clock in the morning," he said "Well! she will be a credit to herself and to me." So the instruction, including typewriting as well as shorthand, continued for about ten weeks when something happened. "Say, Grace, how would you like a positiou as stenographer?" asked her father one evening as he came home from town. "Oh, I'm not ready for a position; do you think I am?" "Well, Mr. Stevens told me he needs another stenographer now, and that he would be willing to let you try the place. He has three other stenographers you know, and he will be easy with you to begin with. I think it might be well for you to try it at any rate.. And so it was arranged. With a fearful though determined heart Grace sat down to take her first dictation. Mr. Stephens began slowly but soon was talking as though to his correspondents face to face. After dictating a number of letters he said, "You seem to have done nicely so far; let ug see how well you read them; that is the test oC your work yon know." - And she read them off to him without hesitation and without error. "Well, that is fine," said Mr. Stevens. "The most experienced stenographer in the office could not read her notes like like." After Grace had been there several days Mr. Stevens, apparently to test her but really because he felt sure she could handle the her for two days steadily, without giving her any opportunity to write oat any of i t It is comparatively eaey to take several letter* at a time emd then write them out because the memory will help one, but yon will see that in two days' one wonld have written so much that every bit of it wonld have to be read, for practically none of it could be remembered. Grace was at the disadvantage of being unfamiliar with many of the terms used in this business; yet when it oame to reading her notes she found no difficulty whatever. "Well, I am glad I learned about Doughertys Brief Shorthand and decided to study it instead of the other system, for I can easily see that with it I could not possibly have done what I have done with this shorthand," said Grace. Mr. Stephens, although not especially interested in the shorthand which she used, soon found that Grace could take her notes equal readiness on any kind of paper while the other stenographers had to use ruled paper. This was often a great convience to him as he went through the establishment, dictating matters pertaining to the various departments and he continually spoke of how well Grace read her notes. So it went on for about three months, when one day Mr. Stephens promoted her over the heads of the other three stenographers, simply because she was the the best stenographer he had. For about a year Grace remained with this establishment when an offer came from the Fox Typewriter company of the same city, which she accepted. Mr. Fox had learned about her good work and naturally desired her services. Although this iB a great establishment, employing many stenographers, it was not long before Grace was holding the position of head stenographer where great skill and accuracy are required. Many times she has written Mr. Dougherty, "I am so glad I learned your shorthand, I know I owe v#v '» / — I 1 1 I I - - ¾ so wettjtthfrSa^Ma*J ht ^™» e e s anditWMtUlefrsoUib** your so writ)! reading my noise." niraa a^ « e ^ w Trstery.

Nevius, the commander-inchief,, arrived here Saturday with his staff and inspected the arrangements. pn Sunday the city's guests began arriving by the thousand, and on Monday they came In so fast that the committee had to work like sailors to get them all housed In such a manner as to avoid congestion 1B any part of the city. Big "Greetings" Meeting. 1 Monday evening came the first public event on the program—a great camp-fire in the assembly hall in the Temple grounds. All that night and throughout Tuesday the stream of arrivals continued^ but by Tuesday evening practically all the visitors had been received and distributed. That night the greatest function of the encampment took place. This was the "Greetings" meeting In the Mormon Tabernacle. The immense building easily seats 10,000 persons, and It was filled to its capacity. Col. Frank M. Starrett, the executive director of the encampment, called the vast assemblage to order and Introduced William H. King of Salt Lake City, who acted as. temporary chairman. He made a brief The Temple and Tabernacle. tlonai encampment. Many military bands and fife and drum corps made the music to which the old warriors kept step. The procession formed at Eagle Gate, which is one of Salt Lake City's many picturesque features. At the word of command the parade marched west on Main street and turned south down that thoroughfare, proceeding seven blocks between solid walls of cheering men, women and children-. As the grizzled veterans passed the enthusiasm was tremendous and many a spectator wept unashamed as he realized that this was undoubtedly the last grand review for scores of the feeble heroes who trudged along with eyes on the flag for which tfify had given some of the best years of AfeeirHives.

William Spry of Utah, Mayor John 3. Bradford of Salt Lake City, and L. H. Smythe, commander of the depart* ment of Utah, all of whom told In eloquent words how proud they were to welcome to the state and city the Grand Army and their friends. Mr. King then Introduced Command er-in-Chief Nevius, who was received with wild cheering and the waving of hats and handkerchiefs. As soon as the tumult had subsided, Commander Nevius delivered a graceful response to the welcoming speches and took the chair. Then came the turn of the allied organizations and greetings to the vet erans were uttered by President Genevieve Hagar Longfleld Lane 6f the Ladies of the G. A- R.,rPresident Mary B. Gflman of the Woman's Relief MCorp», President Clara E. Hoover of the Daughters of Veterans, Commander-in Chief Edgar Allen of the Sons of Veterans, and President Rebecca Smith of the Army Nurses. ThYspdechmaking was varied by the playing of pa. trlotic airs by a band. , The exercises were' Drought to, a close by the presentation of a handsome testimonial to Charles G.

The old soldiers have been very carefully looked aftat by the local committee on public comfort ami private accommodations, and at the 14 information bureaus at the various railway stations and convenient places about the city.

The work has to all appearances been carried on in a thorough manner. In addition to the arrests made Friday, eight more warrants were served Saturday on three different- people, two of whom were placed under arrest the day before. Four more charges were preferred hgalnst Philip Hook, a former saloonkeeper, to all of which he pleaded not guilty and asked for an examination when arraigned before Justice BattdoTtt. The warrants allege that Hook sold beer and whisky at different times to one Frank D. Arnold. Julius Martin, aecrejtary and treasurer of the Battle Creek Brewing Co., was arrested on two warrants charging the sale of bottled beer by the case. Mrs. Nora Bock, clerk in the employ of the brewing company, is held under two similar charges. She asked for an examination and furnished needs J n the sum of'f&flO. Hook and MarfJn are each held; on vflye charges' ttius far. There are more .warrants to follow. A Boy's Terrible Injuries. Nose broken, upper Jaw broken in two places, lower jaw fractured and skull crushed—these are the injuries sustained by Standi, the 13-year-old son of Felix Miller, a well-to-do farmer near Williamsburg, when an eight-pound, pulley fell from the barn roof last evening. The boy was helping the father unload rye when the rope became fouled and he tried to release it. The pulley was holding a weight of a half a ton and felt with terrific force, striking the boy on the left side of the head. He will be bjind even if he recovers. His parents are prostrated. Hold Money In Trust. The Soldiers' home board has finally settled the excess pension matter to the satisfaction of all concerned. The board used to take all in excess of $12 a month and turn it into a post fund, using it for new buildings and luxuries. The old settlers contended that the state acquired no good title to this money and did an act of injustice. Huntley Russell carried on a long campaign and forced its abolishment. Many of the old fellows spent their money foolishly, and now the board has made another rule, taking away the same amount, but holding it in trust for the veteran or his family. W i t W f * ' Sensational Charges Made. New fraud charges of sensational character are made in chancery suits filed against the wife, mother and another relative of former State Treasurer Frank P. Glazier by the Security Trust Co. of Detroit, trustee in the bankruptcy cases. ' The suits are two in number, but of similar import They are directed against Emily J. Glazier, mother of the former treasurer; Henrietta, hiH wife, and Frank Sweetland, a brother- Ifi-Iaw. The trustee attacks the transfer to these persons of about $71,000 worth of life insurance policies held by Frank P. Glazier in the Prudential, Home Life, New York Life* Mutual of New York and Massachusetts companies. The policies were assigned by Glazier to the relatives named, but the trustee declares that the assignments were really made at dates much later than those indorsed in the transfers, and when Glazier's affairs had reached * a stage which made such assignments unfair and improper. In the case of one policy assigned to the mother, says the trustee, the date given is September, 1904, but experts who have examined the transfer indorsement declare that It was written in about three years later. The trustee asks that all the transfers be declared void and the policies left in the hands of the trustee with other assets to apply on the Glazier liabilities.

Make an opening in fence and across it nail <*> < ;;j..JI?^gT Cattle Pass But Hogs Can't. two 18-inch planks to posts or stakes 16 Inches apart, says a writer In Missouri Valley Farmer. A hog can pays between them but It can not turn so as to jump over either plank, and the distance is great enough so that it can not jump over the two planks at once. Horses and cattle can go over without any trouble. Fertilizers. Fertilizers may be divided into two general classes—direct and indirect, or nutritive and stimulant. A direct or nutritive fertilizer is one which furnishes nourishment to the growing crop. Nourishment means simply nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash. These are the three ingredients which must be renewed through the medium of manures and fertilizers. A stimulant or Indirect fertilizer is one which does not furnish an actual plant food to^he soil, buTby its stimulating action renders available some plant food which previously existed in the soil in an insoluble or unavailable condition. Downy Mildew. Downy mildew is the most destructive disease of cucumbers. It can be recognised by the yellow leaves in the center of the plants, and later by the angular spots that occur on all the leaves. The remedy is to spray with bordeaux mixture. Recipe for Whitewash. The best whitewash for inside or outside use i s made as follows: Onehalf bushel unslacked lime; slack with warm water; cover it during the process of steaming; strain the liquid; dissolve a peck of salt in warm water; boll three pounds of ground rice to a thin paste, add one-half pound of powdered whiting and a pound of glue, which has been dissolved over a slow fire, and add five gallons of hot water to the mixture; stir well and let It stand 48 hours. If properly, applied one pint will cover a square yard. Rolling Up Barbed Wire. A simple and easy way to take up barbed wire fencing is to use a smalt hand cart made from two low buggy Shoals. A frame i s built on so th< d reel the wire came on would go between. Make holes in the ree square to pass a wooden crank BhAft through the top of the frames on the cart.,Wj^Uiuch an arrangement two men. ean easily take down barbed wire; one handling the crank, the other rolling the cart aa the wire i s roiled on the reei.

Now a few words In relation to-the profitable production of corn. Do not undertake to grow corn on a soil that is not adapted to it. The land should be at least moderately dry, early and warm, says the New England Homestead. The soil should be in good condition as to fertility. Corn 1B a rank grower and needs a rich poll. It will make a good use of farm manure either plowed under or well hp "rowed in on the surface. It is also best, we find, to put a little quick-acting fertilizer in the hill or drill when* planting to give the crop an early start. The land should be well prepared previous to planting and then persistent cultivation Bhould follow. With these conditions there should be no difficulty in growing a large and welldeveloped field of corn, suitable to husk. Cure or put in the silo for winter use. This is in accordance with our experience and many others. sjssaasaaai Si t S K S- «2- ' T L ; -MAKET BETTtR WULROAOS 1 * "»» i w » HP • * » *K~'r Thorough Work. To an American who is accustomed to select plows that win at plowing contests because of doing the best work with the lightest draft, these ungainly rooting machines look behind the times. But when you come to think of it, you begin to realize that the most scientifically constructed plow as to draft may do the most unscientific work, you begin to think our American plows are not plowing at all, but Instead are just turning a furrow of earth upside down with hardly a break in it. The soil hardly knows that anything has happened to disturb it. Is this plowing? I ask you young gentlemen, to think this Question over carefully and perhaps you will come to the conclusion that possibly the best and most scientific plow that money can buy, according to American standard of excellence, does not guarantee the best or most scientific plowing. Making Clover Hay. Farmers differ considerably as to how to make clover hay. Often the crop is cut too soon. If it is heavy and cut green in full blossom It is hard to cure without danger of molding. I have cut clover green on Monday and been obliged to leave It until Thursday or Friday, and even then the heavy stems were not cured, says \ writer in Baltimore American. If the ground is wet the plants are hard to dry. Many times I have cut early o ae to get a crop of seed, and then ^ut rather late, when half or more of ;he heads were brown, and the late •uttir.gs always mad* the better head. Uock ate the hay more readily also A'c souittimeo salt the hay when we ,>ut It iu the mow damp, with good re- V,llU. n V • - • i t ; ; - - . ^ v "rr'' •"•' r ,., Weelgaav ,/Wrf*r „ **y* *is«*rte t o r V ^ i * a ^ , M W e ^ • # sWIIdeMJp - . - - : of the Gtpotrjfc ^ Mr. Kdwaid 1 ^ H*rriman,;.ia. on a trip to Europe* Ordinarily there would need be noUlng added 4o> this announcement beyond a s exhortation to Emperor William tq chain down hi* railroads and to other monarcha t o put their crowns and other valuables i n the sale at nlgfct But ,Mr. Harriman i s going ojB on a pleasure trip, and j o many, mean things,have been said about him that i t will, not hurt any to change the tune a moment while h e is out of the country, and pot able to take any advantage of the lapse from the cold attitude of severity that, ia usually used in mentioning the name of Harriman. Of all the great railroad men developed in this generation, E. H. Harriman Is easily the biggest and the best, says a writer In the Hutchinson (Kan.) Daily News. The head of a railroad company, under the rules of the game, must work for bis stockholders, whether i t Is for the advantage of politicians, shippers or consumers, i t i s his job to do the best he can for the interests entrusted to his care. Harriman is not only a financier, but he is a builder and an operator. Lucky is the town, city or community that has a Harriman road. He insists on a good roadbed, level track, safe track and the convenience and comfort of the traveler and the shipper. The. Harriman roads, are noted as the best in the country. When Harriman gets hold of a one-horse or played-out track and right of way he proceeds to put it in first class condition. He does not raise the rates of fares, although he doubtless charges "a plenty," but he insists that enough of the funds go into real improvements to make a railroad. And that is where he stands ahead of a good many others and why Harrlmanism is not such a bad thing as some people have been led to think. He makes better railroads, and there is more need for improvement that way than there is in some others which are being discussed. So far as we can see, he believes in giving every interest along his road a fair deal. He Is a public benefactor from that standpoint. He uses his power fairly. He Is a great man, and a s -good or better than the ordinary citizen who looks upon him as the personification of the money power, seeking whom it may devour. He is a strong man in the financial world, but that should not be against him, when the financial world is the object which most of us want to reach. He is a good American and he. spends his money on American'railroads, not on foreign titles, race horses, did editions or other bad habits.-. If he is not peev feet—and we don't think be is—he M no exception to Uie rule and is worthy of the praise of l i s felloV eitisjens fo( t h s X s ^ l ^ d a ^ s fr& ha%doa«4 ^ % h W h r P i teVfet of Barks. Laughing .is barking, say the scientists. "The neck: and head^ aro thrown hack wWle a series of short barks are emitted from the throat. However musical Ahe barks may be, they are barks. The laugh begins with a Sudden aadViolent contraction of the muscle* of the chest and a V domen. But instead of opening to let the air pass out of the lungs, the vocal cords approach each other and hold it back. But they are not strong enough" to exercise such opposition for more than a a instant, and the air; whicli l i undezjirwssure, promptly escapes. As it does s o it makes the vocal cords vibrate producing the bark. This obstruction and liberation of the air expelled from the lungs repeats itself again and again at intervals of a quarter of a second. There are thus in a hearty laugh four barks a second, and If continued, they go on at that rate as long as the air reserve in the lungs holds out. The empty lungs most then fill themselves, and this interval ia marked by a quick gasp for breath, after which the-forks are renewed. The/ barks occur in series with gasps for breath at intervals. When laughter Is violent, the entire body participates. The upper part of the trunk bends and straightens itself alternately or sways to right and left The feet stamp on the floor, while the hands are pressed upon the loins to moderate the painful spasm.

Latterly, this has been'tudre marked, perhaps,- than ln^£h<8 oldeju^days when the funny fellows who.writ^e pjajagrapha, figuratively, wore out the hoopsklrts and the big balloon sleeves. Of late much merry laughter has been expended over the woman or the patella shape and the peach basket headgear. It is thoroughly convulsing, says the Pittaburg Post. Woman is such a queef sight, togged out to represent an animated mushroom, But what of a man and his attire? Is the laugh to be on one corner of the mouth f Doe* not the shoe on the other foot pinch a little? Those strange shoes of the emerald hue. And what of all the other green things he dons that give him the appearance of a string bean at a little distance, if he chances to be or a lean and hungry build 7 Consider for a moment the "swell-dresser* who swings up the avenue, his sack coat extending to the region of the patella, two or three buttons the fraction of an inch apart, holding it together, the trousers, turned half way to the knee, as though reaching upward to meet the coat, and themselves bellying like a pair of balloons. Consider the diagonal cut of the pockets and the curious bands and braids about his cuffs. Is he not a sightly figure? DID H E Ml BOY * 0 * 0 £ R TMOUOHT TO »*AVe AkO AN ACCOMPLICE OF NATURE AQC. MICHIGAN ITEMS. , i . . . THE LAD HELD FOR TRIAL Hope to Identify Party Who M i y H i v t Been the Abettor of the Bey*« Forged Checks. An automobile bill has been pastedby the legislature of New York after a wrangle as to which of the departments should have the licensing power, and it Is possible that more important provisions may have been overlooked in the contest The fact that it places the maximum speed limit at 30 miles and retains the present road rules is evidence that it is not likely to Improve conditions on the road to any great extent. A speed of 30 miles au hour may be extremely dangerous on some roads where it Is impossible to see for any great distance. Ttte railroads find danger at curves that are hidden by loliage, and there are many highway crossings thus obscured. Though, the Ann Arbor bank and county officials bad decided to allow the family of William Nimka. the' 16- year-old . boy who confessed to the forgery of $1¢0, to pay the coats and make restitution and dismiss the case, they decided differently afterwards, and the lad was bound over to the October term of the circuit court. Ball was fixed at $500, which was furnished, and he was allowed to return to his home. It has all along been thought the lad bad accomplices, because he seemed unable to account for more than 140. An expert decided that the check drawn on the Ann Arbor Savings bank for $61 was written by two different people and at two different tiroes, as the amount was filled in in another handwriting and with other shade of Ink. The boy denies that he had a confederate, and says that he had no way to keep track of the money he spent, because he and half a dozen other boys, whose ages rauge from 15 years to 19, were in the habit of going into saloons and that he treated heavily. The lad says he had no trouble in getting something to drink, and that he stayed in saloons long after closing hours. There are probably few farmers who have closely figured the average cost of marketing any given unit of their crops as a manufacturer figures upon each article he turns out, says the Philadelphia Public Ledger. As long as there was nothing to be done but to plow and BOW and reap and count up the total result such calculations were not called for. But that easy time 1B passing. It is the man who makes two blades to grow where one grew before, not two blades upon twice the area of ground, who is on the road to wealth. Father and Son Missing. William Alexander, aged GO, and his son Roy, 9 years old, in company with the wife and three other children, came to Flint from their home nine miles away to see the circus on Friday, Aug. 6. The mother and three children returned to their home alone that evening, but the father and son have not appeared nor been heard from since. When the mother and neighbors failed to find any trace of the missing pair, the case was placed before the Flint officials and the search has been taken up. It is reported that the Alexanders, father and son, were seen last on the street at 6 o'clock in the evening of the show. A^rs. Alexander Is 46 years old, and the Alexander place is near Copenconie lake, ah Isolated section south of town. Whether the man and boy left deliberately, possibly to follow the .circus upon its wanderings, or whether both have been the victims of foul play Is a point upon which the officers are divided. A clubwoman In a discussion how to make home happy uttered the now famous dictum, "Feed the brute." A New York magistrate has taken up the challenge and supplemented this dictum with the order to feed the brute well. Here is a field of argument In which the weaker sex signally falls, says the Baltimore American. Eve tempted Adam with a toothsome morsel, and her daughters have suffered the penalty of tempting man through his palate ever since. Another wealthy English nobleman is reported to have sold a Rembrandt masterpiece for $500,000. Presumably the purchaser will be set down as a rich American, and the vials of British wrath will be opened on his head. But where will come in censure for the British nobleman who wanted the money more than he wanted to keep the picture as a national possession? International control of the air is to be a'dvocated at the fourth Pan-American conference to be held in Argen tina, at which time aeronautics and wireless telegraphy will be discussed. Possibly that is all that is intended, but the casual reader might imagine some trust was getting ready to squeeze the breath out of tig.

Following a surgical operation of a sort rarely performed with success. J. E. Andrews, a Dowaglac business man, will probably live the rest of his life minus the upper portion of his stomach. Because of Its nearness to the region of the heart, the removal of that portion of the stomach is considered a dangerous experiment. The remaining lower section of the stomach was sewed to the esophagus, and Andrews is apparently on the road to recovery. He had suffered for years with stomach trouble. Babe Burned to Death. Left alone in its crib while the mother went to a store and while the father was at work in a mill, the year-old child of Mr. and Mrs. Miles Green, of East Jordan, was burned to death. Fire in the cooking stove is supposed to have caused the flames. Green heard of the blaze and ran from the mill. By the time he arrived at his home the house was a pillar of flame, and neighbors had to restrain him, as he was determined to plunge in, in the effort to rescue the babe. Col.

Justice Mills turned down Thaw's request for such a Jury on the ground that a lay jury In the second murder trial had already decided the question by declaring him Insane. Then Harry took the case to the court of appeals. The elder Mrs. Thaw has sold a portion of the front lawn of famous Lyndhurst, to W. W. Willock, the consideration being cash and in the neighborhood of $100,000. The property is 250x600 feet, and is one of the most valuable tracts in the residence part of Pittsburg. At the time the orders came to sell the property work was stopped on the interior of the Thaw home, which was being fitted up for the reception of. Harry. At noon the workmen were all discharged. •'; A New Disease.

The United States government has gone on record that leprosy is not an incurable disease. The pension bureau has just removed from the pension rolls John Early, the ex-soldier, who, after being quarantined for nearly, a year as a leper, recently went to the Skin and Cancer hospital in New York for treatment. When Early was flrat isolated, his case was formally passed upon by the pension bureau and a pension of $72 a month granted him on the ground that he was a leper. Recently, hearing that Early had been discharged as cured. Dr. Albert W. Roome, medical examiner, of the bureau, was sent to New York. He reports having found Early working in a store on the outskirts of Brooklyn under an assumed name, and that he bore ah- {. solutely no evidence of leprosy. The Strike In Sweden.

The one difficulty wan to reach the lower branches. She could hardly touch them with her fingertips. But her barbaric costume must have Inspired her. She listened for a moment, and hearing no sound to Indicate the return of the men, clasped the upper side of the trunk with her hands and knees, and made an en* ergetlc attempt to climb. The poBture was far from dignified, but the girl's eyes sparkled with satisfaction as she found herself slowly mounting. When, flushed and breathless, she gained a foothold among the branches, she looked down at the ground, and permitted, herself a merry little giggle such as she had not indulged in since leaving boarding-school. She had actually climbed a tree! She would show Mr. Blake that she was not so helpless SB he fancied. At the thought, she clambered on up, finding that the branches made convenient steps. She did not look back, and the screen of treetops beneath saved her from any sense of giddiness. As her head came above the level of the cliff, she peered through the foliage, and saw the signal- flag far over near' the end of the headland. The big piece of white duck stood out bravely against the blue sky, all the more conspicuous for the flocks of frightened, seafowl which wheeled above and around it. Surprised tba| she .did not see the men. Miss Leslie started to draw herself up over the cliff edge. She heard Winthrope^s voice a few yards away to her left. A sudden realization that the Englishman might consider her exploit ill-bred caused her to sink back out of sight. She was hesitating whether to descend or to climb on up, when Winthrope's peevish whine was cut short by a loud aiid angry retort from Blake. ifSvery word came to the girl's ears ^Irith the force of a blow. v "You do, do you? Well, I'd like to "know where in hell you come fo> She's -nni_your sister, nor your mother, nor your aunt, and If she's your sweetheart, you've both been damned dlosemouthed over i t " Thece was an Irritable, . rasping murmur from Wmthrope* and again; came Blake's loud retort, "took here, young man, don't you forget you called me a cad ©nce„betore." I can stand a good deal from' a slek man; but I'll give H |o you; straight, you'll better cut that out Call me a brute or a savage, it that'll ttt off your steam; but understannV I'm none of your English kinds." .. Again Wlathrop« spoke, this time In a .tretfut wWnev , ,t r Blake replied with l e u anger: ••That's so; and I'm going to show yon that rm t*e real thing when it comas Skf fM*. W* >a Irm*WlM«* own b It. I'm not after her fortune. It's the lady hers** thaftafce* my fancy. ••. Bemenv bar what I n M to you when you called ma a cad the other1 time. You bad your turn aboari ship. Now I can do aaJUpieaa*;.and .that's what I'm going to do, if I have to kick'you Weir the ' elift end first, to abut off your pesky intarfaravofeT ,,,. The girl eronched back into the withered foliage, daaed with terror. Again she heard Blake speak. H e had dropped into a bitter sneer. "No chance? It's no nerve, you mean. You could brain me, easy enough, any night—just walk up with a club when I'm aaleep. Trouble is, you're like moat other under dogs— •fraid that if you licked your boss, there'd be s o soup bones. So I guess 'I'm slated to stay boss of this cojony —grand Poo Bah and Mikado, all in jone. Understand ? You mind your own business, and don't go to interfering with me any more! . . . Now, If you've stared enough at the lady's skirt--" The threat of discovery stung the girl to instant action. With almost frantic haste, she scrambled down to the lower branches, and sprang to the ground. She had never ventured such a leap even In childhood. She struck lightly but without proper balance, and pitched over Bideways. Her hands chanced to alight upon the remnants of leopard skin. Great as was her fear, she stopped to gather all together In the edge of her Bkirt before darting up the cleft. At the baobab she turned and gazed back along the cliff edge. Before she "Now, Don't Get Mad. Worst Thing in the World for Malaria." had time to draw a second breath, she caught a glimpse of Blake's palm-leaf hat. near the crown of the ladder tree. "O-o-h!—-he didn't see me!" she murmured. Her frantic strength vanished, and a deathly sickness came upon her. She felt herself going, and sought to kneel to ease the fall. She was roused from the swoon by Blake's resonant shout: "Hey, Miss Jenny! where are you? We've got your laundry on the pole in 'fine shape!" The girl's flaccid limbs grew tense, and her body quivered with a shudder of dread and loathing. Yet she set her little white teeth, and forced herself to rise and go out to face the men. Both met her look with a blank stare of consternation. "What is It, Miss Genevieve?" cried Wlnthrope. "You're white as chalk!" "It's the fever!" growled Blake. "She's in the cold stage. Get a pot on. We'll—" "No, no; it's not that! It's only— I've been frightened!" "Frightened?" "By a—a dreadful beast!" "Beast!" repeated Blake, and his pale eyes flashed as he sprang across to where his bow and arrows and his club leaned against the baobab. "I'll have no beasts nosing around my dooryard! Must be that skulking lion I heard last night. I'll show him!" He caught up his weapons and stalked off down the cleft. "By Jove!" exclaimed Wlnthrope; "the maa really must be mad. Call him* back, Miss Genevieve. If anything should happen to him—" "If only there might!" gasped the girl. "Why, what do you mean?" She burst into a hysterical laugh. "Oh! oh! its such a joke—such a joke! At least he's not a hyena—oh, no; a brave beast! Hear him shout! And he actually thinks it's a lion! But it iaa't—it's himself! Oh, dear! oh, dear! what shall I do?" "Miss Genevieve, what do mean? Be calm, pray, be calm!" "Calm!-—when I heard what #a^d? Yes; I heard every word! the top of the tree—" "In the tree? Heavens! Miss—er —Miss Genevieve!" stammered Win* did you hear all?" • "EverytMnj^rerytMng he •**<!• What •ball I do? I am a© frightened! What shall I do?" "Everything a* aald?" echoed Win* thrope. ' . t * "Yon spoke too low for me to hear; but I'm sure you faced him Kke « gentleman— I must believe it of ydu~** Wlnthrope drew1 in a deep t breath. "Ah, yes; I did, Miss Genevieve—I a* avre you. The beast! Yet you see the plight I am in. It is a nasty muddle —Indeed it is! But what can I do? He is strong aa a gorilla. Really, there is only one way—no doubt you heard him taunt me over it. I assure you I should not be afraid—but it would be so horrid—so cold-blooded. As a gentleman, you know-—" "No; it is not that!" broke in the girl. "He is right. Neither of us has the courage—even when he is asleep." "My dear Miss Genevieve, thlB beast instinct to kill—" "Yes; but think of him. If he is a beast, he is at least a brave* one. While we—we haven't the courage of rabbits. I thought you called yourself an English gentleman. Are you going to stand by, and not lift a finger?" "Really, now, Miss Genevieve, to murder a man—" "Self-defense is not a crime—selfpreservation. If you have a spark of manhood—" "My dear—" "For Heaven's sake, if you can't do anything, at least keep still! Oh. I'm sure I shall go mad! If only I had been drowned!" "Ah, yes, to be sure. But really now, what you ask is a good deal for a man to risk. The fellow might wake up and murder me! Should I take the risk, might I—er—expect some manifestation of your gratitude, Mis* Genevieve?" "Of course! of course! I should al ways—" "I—ah—refer to the—the—bestowal of your hand." "My hand? I— Would you bargain for my esteem? i thought you a gentleman!" "To be sure—to be sure! Who says I am not? But all is fair in love and war, you know. Your choiee is quite free. I take it, you will not consider his—er—proposals. But if you do not wish my aid, you have another way of escape—that is—at least other women have done it." The girl gazed at him, her eyes dilating with horror as she realized his meaning. "No, no; not that!" she gasped. "I want to live—I've ^a right to live! Why, I'm only just 22—I—" "Hush!" cautioned Winthrope. "He's coming back Becalm! There will be time until I get over this vile malaria. It may be that he himself will have the fever." "He will not have the fever," replied the girl, in a hopeless tone, and she leaned back listlessly against the baobab, as Blake swung himself up, frowning and sullen, and flung his weapons from him. "Bah!" he grumbled, "I told you that brute was a sneak. I've chased clean down to the pool and into the open, and not a smell of him. Must have hiked off into the tall grass the minute he heard me." "If only he had gone off for good!" murmured Miss Leslie. "Maybe he has; though you never can count on a sneak. Even you might be able to shoo him off next time* but, like as not, he'd come along when we were all out calling, and clean out our commissary. Guess I'll set to and run up a barricade down there where the gully is narrowest. There're shoals of dead thorn-brush to the right of the pool." "Ah, yes; I fancy the vultures will be so vexed when they find your hedge in the way." remarked Winthrope. "My! how smart we're getting!" retorted Blake. "Don't worry, though. We'll stow the stuff In Miss Jenny's boudoir, and I guess the birdies'll be polite enough to keep out." "I must say, Blake, I do not see why you should wish to drag us away from here." "There's lots r>f- things you don't see, Win, my b'y—jokes, for instance. But what could you expect?—you're English. Now, don't get mad. Worst thing in the world for malaria." "One would fancy you could see that I am not angry. I've a splitting headache, and my back hurts. I am ill." Blake looked him over critically, and nodded. "That's no lie. old man. You're entitled to a hospital check all right. Miss Jenny, we'll appoint you chief nurse. Make him comfortable as you can, and give him hot broth whenever he'll take it. You can do your sewing on the side. Whenever you need help, call on me. I'm going to begin that barricade." tare, coupjod~witk ^_ racked every nerve' and bonis in W» bod7,.^id»rad^hiai44a*t^eaded. Ha would^dlch aipsej* jap»fa the midst of sometraVnllaf nonsense to tnojrire anxiously whether he had said anything silly or strange. On being reassured upon this, he would relax'again, and, as likely as not, break into a "babyish wall o^tr his aches and pains. Blake shook his head when he learned that the attack bad not been preceded by a chill. "Guess he's In for a' not time,? he said. "There is more'n one kind of malarial fever. Some are a whole lot like typhus." r . ' "Typhus? What is that?" asked Miss Leslie. "Sort of rapid fire, double action typhoid. Not that I think Win's got ft —oitfy malaria. What gets me is that we've only been here these .few days,' and yet it looks like he'a got the continuousK no-chill kind." "Then you think he will be very ill?" "Well, I guess he'll think so. It ought to run out in a week or ten days, though. We've had good water, and It usually takes time for malaria to soak in deep. Now, don't worry, Miss Jenny. It'll do him no good, and you a lot of barm. Take things easy as you can, for you've got to keep up your strength. If you don't, you'll be down yourself before Win Is up." "Ill while he Is helpless and unable-* Oh, no; that cannot be! I must not give way to the fever until—" "Don't worry. You'll likely stave it off for a couple of weeks or so. You're lively yet, and that's a good sign. I knew Win was in for it when he b e gan to grouch and loaf and do the baby act. I haven't much use for dudes in general, and English dudes in particular; but I'll admit that, while Win'B soft enough in spots, he's not all mush and milk." "Thank you, Mr. Blake." "You're welcome. I couldn't say less, seeing that Win can't speak for himself. Now you tumble in and get a good sleep. I'll go on as night nurse, and work at the barricade same time. You're not going to do any nightnursing. I can gather the thorn-brush in the afternoons, and pile it up at night." In the morning Miss Leslie found that Blake had built a . substantial canopy over the Invalid, in place of the first ramshackle structure. "It's best for him to be out in the air," he explained; "so I fixed thW up to keep off the dew. But whenever it rains, we'll have to tote him Inside." "Ah, yes; to be sure. How la he?" murmured the girl. "He's about the same this morning. But he got a little sleep. Keep him dosed with all the hot broth he'll take. And say, roust me out at noon. I've had my breakfast. Now I'll have a snooze. So long!" He nodded, and crawled under the shade of the nearest bush, too drows) lo observe her look of dismay.

Many ideas in regard to woman have entirely . changed, and among the aetter and wiser changes Is that, old thought w th*k Jber women who were given to good works must needs be dowdy. It is undeniable that "good" women used to wear dowdiness as a sort of hall mark of virtue. As a matter of fact, dowdlnesa ts merely a mark of bad taste and a sign of some lack in the mind. Women are no longer lacking in the wisdom that chooses pretty rather than ugly clothing, and those who do not make the best of their appearance are losing a golden opportunity of giving pleasure.

HH. H. Rogers," said a New York broker, "alwayB advised young men to get hold of capital. He used to point out to them that without capital a man could do nothing, nothing. He used to pack this truth into a very neat epigram. " 'Fortune,' he used to say, 'can't knock at the door of a man who has no house.'" Lord Avebury has suggested an explanation of the crooked streets which have puzzled so many visitors to London. Presiding at the first of a series of addresses on the history of this city, he said it was remarkable how the London of to-day bore traces of Its an'cient history. Between London and Westminster there were formerly open fields divided into long strips of an acre each. These strips, he said, had a tendency to curvature owing to the way in which the oxen walked while plowing the ground. An instance of that was seen in the curious way in which Longacre curved.

"I congratulate you," remarked the judge urbanely, "upon .the engagement' «h! your niece." Miss Weston smiled as, with, hands almost as fragile as the Dresden cup, she passed his tea. "My greatniece," she corrected quietly, "you forget the flight of time." "Oitfy when I am with you," he responded wtth a slight bow. •' The judge, who prided himself upon neat speeches of this • character,, id' mired his wbltV gaiters as' he stood with his bacJ**© the^r^ The judge's left great toe was gouty; but his boots were immaculate notwithstanding. "I knew her mother," he resumed, reflectively—"yes, and her mother's mother." "Also his father," said Miss Weston, tentatively, "and perhaps his father, too?" "I knew his grandfather certainly; also his grandmother." The judge drew up a chair and sat down. From the other room came a murmur of young voices enlivened'by little bursts of laughter, and he involuntarily smiled as he listened. "I wonder you allowed it," he suddenly remarked. "On the contrary," said Miss Weston, briefly, "I encouraged it." "It's in the blood," slowly resumed the judge "they cannot help it. Always the last pretty face. There's heartache for every woman who marries a Grayson." "Heartache for every woman who loves a Grayson," amended Miss Weston, quietly. The judge looked curiously at his companion as she rested her head again the high, carved back of her chair a little wearily. Miss Weston resembled a delicate flower, which has begun to fade, and Tnost-fflen felt an instinctive desire to shieM and protecther. "I am not sure," he remarked at last, "that I understand you. Let us return to the young people. . The boy suggests his grandfather." ^ "Who married Lucy Lincoln," -said Miss Weston in her soft old voice. "I was bridesmaid, you were. ^bjBsU man. It seems but yesterday." ' "Poor Lucy, truly," said the Judge with a slight sigh as he brushed a crumb from his knee, "a neglected, unloved wiffe. she suffered acutely. She Used to teTl me her troubled* ' * "Ah," said Miss WestoEL^ajUling, troubIe**-Hffl$W!frry *W rtren?' t "He., was a brute," remarked the judge m* the Impersonal manner ill' which one refers to a well-established fact. "He was nothing of the sort," contradicted Miss Weston with unexpected asperity; "he needed the right woman, that was all." "He married,- the judge declared, "the best woman on God's earth, and bis neglect killed her." "Lucy died of diphtheria," corrected his companion dryly; "it is not usually produced by neglect." She clasped her hands loosely In her lap, and their delicate transparency was accentuated by the black velvet of her gown. There was something strangely thereal about Miss Weston, which the judge admired, though he did not understand. "Is Mildred the right Woman?" he interrogated as a ripple of laughter arose from the next room. "He is a nice boy," she returned slowly; "he deserves a chance." "His grandfather never had a change," resumed Miss Weston in a reflective tone; "Lucy did not know how to love." A flush not entirely due to the fire overspread the wrinkled cheeks of the old man. "I beg your pardon.".he,interrupts*, "she knew—" The French clock on the mantel seemed to tick more hurriedly as Miss Weston leaned forw&i^; looking up at her companion upon the hearthr-g. "So it was you," she said .with an odd little iaugh; "I knew there was a man in it, of course, but—you." "Oh, I assure you." he exclaimed, extendicg a deprecating hand, "there was notuing—" "Discreet, even in her indiscretions,'' murmured Miss Weston appreciatively, "dear Lucy." forward and crossed bis knees w' a deliberation. He liked to discuss every Biibject dispassionately'and was quite celebrated at'the bar for the justice of HiaVdecJalqik "Did yqu know," she said a little. bc«*tbieealy;,V'th|tt she never opened a book or read a paper, and that her neglect of her child (this,boy's ra^ thexfc made her husband what he Was? Had you any Idea how she could whine and sulk for days together, ovfer triSea?~rjid you realize how untidy and' slovenly her dress beau »ewh«P,alone with. her husband, ana now* she wore away his love by constant nagging? Did you know that his unhappy home drove him to drink and that she—not he—is responsible for his ruined life? Did you know all this?" Her companion paused a moment; he liked to go to the root of a matter before flatly contradicting it. "What Is your authority for such extraordinary statements?" he inquired judicially. "The best," oanie her quick response, her sweet old voice breaking uncertainly, "the very best. He told me so himself." An occasional murmur arose from the next room, but the two old people, completely absorbed in the past, no longer felt interested in the exponents of the present. "He told you so," repeated the judge, loftily tolerant of the illogical conclusions of the weaker sex, "and you believed him! Oh, the credulity of the female mind! Why, Dorcas, Tom Grayson was bad clear through! "His wife," he continued firmly, "tried In every way possible to make a happy home for him. She strove nobly to reclaim him, notwithstanding bis neglect and abuse. She endured many thing* and suffered in ai- .leuee—'* r. "Indeed h" interrupted Miss Weston sharply, "and what Is your authority,^/ you please?" , "I know it to be true," said the Judge, 'Still calmly superior, "because she told me so herself." The judge was not blessed with a •ease of humor, else he would have understood the short laugh with which hfs companion leaned back in her chair and contemplated the fire. As it was, he merely continued a train of thought and promptly voiced his sentiments. "I never could understand," he re- .markejk w n ^ t i o u ^ J ' w h y ^ good women always defend worthless men. Now, Grayson-—" "I'm not defending him," Interrupted Miss Weston a little wearily, "1 know he was dissipated and all that. But It was 'a«r fault—yes, it was," she continued, once more sitting erect and returning to the subject with some warmth. "We remember him, you and I, when he was like that boy in the other room—handsome, generous, careless, and care-free; quick-tempered and full of faults, perhaps, but with the making of a man if he had had a fair chance. You know it tn your heart as well as I do. The right woman could have been proud of her husband. He found her too late to marry her, but he realized what she might have been to him. He knew that he loved her and told her so, asking for her love ii> return and her help." "And she?" "She loved him because she could not help it. But she was a woman and had the scruples of her sex; she feared the criticism of the world and would have nothing to do with him— nothing. He went from bad to worse until he met his miserable death, the result of a fall when he was drunk. You know all about it. Whose fault "Her name," said the old lady, quietly withdrawing her hand, "wa» Dorcas Weston.-' An hour later a girl strolled*into the little b*c* dntwlng-roou and'seated herself upon the rug before the Are, leaning her trlgfyt head affectionately against Miss Weston's knee and taking possession of the hand which had excited the admiration of the judge. "It's funny," she remarked thoughtfully, "how awfully confidential the tire makes you feel, isn't it?" Miss Weston agreed. "Now Harry," she continued almost shyly, "has been saying all sorts of things in there. He actually wants to be married in April, but I would rather wait until fall. What would you do?" And Miss Weston told her. Against the Corset A number of Parisian women or high social standing are carrying on a campaign against the corset,. They have formed a league to protest against the distortion of the female figure by the use of corsets. They agree to banish tbeir own stays forever and to work to do away with the evils of tight lacing in Paris Itself, where the moat fashionable corsets are manufactured. Many prominent men and women have expressed sympathy with the Anti-Corset league, TVfarcel Prevoet, M. Paasy and Gyp are among those who have enroiled themselves as sympathizers, while scores of doctors have offered to encourage the movement- The league has sent out 60,000 pamphlets to Parisian women demonstrating the evils of the modern corset, but members do not enroll with the alacrity wished for. Before the general winding-up of this world the corset may be denounced every now and then. But women will wear them if they want to; and they certainly are "becoming."

Again the walls trembled and the stage manager said In a voice which could be heard all over the house: "Come off, you doggoned fool."

The College Girl Graduate. Tacking adjectives to the college man is an irresistible delight of commencement day. Then he seems cut to u pattern more evenly than any of the Linnaean species. All the seniors wear cap and gown; they are about of an rge and stature; earnestness, con iidence and relief are all stenciled on every face, and all the diplomas read alike. About such a constant, how else could one talk save in the abstract? There is but one creature that lends itself more easily to generalize s ; we refer to the college girl. Even our government statisticians handle her as though she were a Platonic idea, but with results that bring their method under a cloud. Take, for instance, i the many demonstrations either proving or disproving that the college* girl is an accomplice in the great crime or blessing of race suicide. At the end, they all leave you empty-handed, and the college girl dancing out of reach, a charming willo'- the-wisp.—N. Y. Post. The Help of the Prodigal. The prodigal sun, repentant, or, at any rate, weary, of the diet of husks forced upon his kind by a vigilant po lice system, had experienced a change of heart and joined tlie church. The good sisters were discussing his desirability. "Hut," expostulated Mrs. Straightlace, with a fine and virtuous display of righteousness, "he was a common gambler—what they call a bunco Bteerer." "Isn't it lovely!' 'exclaimed Mrs. Uptodate. "What a help he will be in getting up our church fairs." As a wise philosopher once remarked in Latin: "De gustibus non disputandum." was it that he lived as he did—his or rthgt of the two women who might have helped him? I mean his wife, had she been different, and—tho other. Come, you are a judge. Whose fault was It?"

Who owns the air? It is a curious fact that when two wireless stations are working, another station in the vicinity can break into the ether way and stop the working stations. In the operators' terms this is known as "interference." To some extent science has overcome this difficulty by the use of a device known as the tuner. With this instrument the operator can "tune out," that is, shut off stations which he does not want to hear. This operation, however, restricts the use of the atmosphere again, so that in the end the struggle for air Is little jurt.her advanced than if the tuner was not in use.—Technical World Magazine. She Was Too Quick for Them. There were three at the little table in the cafe, a lady and two men, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Suddenly the electric lights went out, and the lady, quickly and noiselessly, drew back. An instant later there was the smack of a compound kiss. As the electric lights went up each man was seen to be smiling eomplalsantly. "I thought I henrd a kiss," aaiu the lady, "but nobody kissed me." Then the men suddenly glared at each other, and flushed and looked painfulfy sheepish. ' Of Courts Not "l want this hook on aerodrome printed and hound ih as cheap a manner as possible." "Yes, sir. But, of course, you don'I warn to cut out the fly leaves?" Had Strange Idea of Fun. Two strangers alighting from a train were injured in Washington* Pa., in a panic which ensued when a large brindle dog ran through the Btreets with flecks of foam flying from his wide-open mouth. The canine made its appearance in a residence section of town and, pursued by a howling mob, hurling stones and clubs, ran clear through the business section. As it passed the station, where a train was pulling in, two men stepping from a car were caught in the mad whirl and hurled to the ground and trampled. As soon as they could escape the men again boarded the train. The dog was pursued by the mob two miles, when it took refuge under a porch. George Eagleson secured a long pole and went after it, and it was not long until he discovered that the supposed mad dog was merely a harmless brute which had been lathered about the mouth with soap suds. The perpetrators of the practical joke have so far escaped. "Come into the garden, Maud/* i Said facetious-minded. Fredf "What's the use?" said Mattdle— "I have it on mjThead." s DISCOURAGED WOMBN.

Look at the Names. In 4 A. D. Fearaidhach-Fionfashtna was an Irish king, u "most just and good prince," who was slain by his successor, Flachadh-Flon, who was treated to a similar fate by Finchsdh- Fionohudh, "the prince with the white cows," who died at the hands of "the Irish plebeians of Connaught." Eochalrh- Moidmeodhain was one of the half dozen who died of natural causes, and Flaithheartagh was one of the two to resign the monarch's scepter for the monk's cowl.—New York Press. They Were Good Mothers. Elizabeth Cady Stanton is quoted as saying that a woman's first duty is to develop all her powers and possibilities, that she may better guide and serve the next generation. Mrs. Stanton raised seven uncommonly heal'hy and handsome children, says an admirer of hers, and the children of Mrs. Julia Ward Howe testify to the virtues of the noted woman as a mother, The eagle may bo as good a mother as the hen or the goose.

IN AGONY WITH ECZEMA. Whole Body a Maaa of Raw, Bleeding. Torturing Humor —Hoped Death Would End Fearful Buffering. In Despair; Cured by Cuticura. "Words cannot describe the terrible ecaema I suffered with. It broke out on my head and kept spreading until it covered my whole body. I was almost a solid mass of sores from head to fooj^ I looked more like a piece of raw beef than a human be* ing. The pain and* agony endured seemed more than I could bear. Blood and pus oozed from the great Bore on my scalp, from under my finger nails, and nearly all over my body. My ears were so crusted and swollen I was afraid they would break off. Every hair i n my head fell o u t I could not sit down, for my clothes would stick to tho raw and bleeding flesh, making me cry out from the pain. My family doctor did all h e could, but I got worse and worse. My condition was awful. I did not think I could live, and wanted death to come and end my frightful sufferings. "In this condition my mother-in-law begged me to try the Cuticura Remedies. I said I would, but had no hope of recovery. But oh, what blessed relief I experienced after applying Cuticura Ointment. It cooled the bleeding and itching flesh and brought me the first reel sleep I had had in weeks. It was as grateful as ice to a burning tongue. I would bathe with warm water and Cuticura Soap, then apply the Ointment freely. I also took Cuticura Resolvent for the blood. In a short time the-sores stopped running, the flesh began to heal, and I knew I was to get well again. Then the hair on my head began to grow, and In a short time I was completely cured. I wish I could tell everybody who has ecsema to use Cuticura. Mrs. Wm. Hunt, 135 Thomas St., Newark, N. J., Sept. 28, 1908." Potter Dng ft Cham. Corp., Bole Prop*, Boston. He Needed It. This happened on the Lake Shore flyer not long ago. A man rushed in from ^he car behind, evidently in great agitation, and said: "Has anybody in the car any whisky? A woman in the car behind has fainted." Instantly dozens of flasks were produced. The man who had asked for it picked out the largest one, drew the cork and put the bottle to his lips. With a long, satisfied sigh, he handed it back and remarked: "That did me a lot of good. I needed it, for it always makes me feel queer to see a woman faint."—Argonaut., DODD'S v | K I D N E Y | &.

Miaa Warren has a dramatic studio and ber apartments in tbe building. The last person had hardly left tbe building for tbe nlgbt when her sister, Mrs. Marian Sutton Story confronted Miss Warren with blazing eyes and the exclamation: "'Eliza, I must kill you. The Bpirits tell me to." "I knew in an instant she was crazy," Miss Warren told her friends. "Her eyes shone with insane light 'She had no weapon then, and after a short struggle I succeeded in overpowering her. For a long time I was compelled to Bit on her, so determined was she to carry out the command of the 'spirits.' "Alter a while she grew quieter and I relaxed my hold. But not for long. " 'I must kill you, Eliza,' she said, 'twill die to-night. To-morrow father and brother will die. We'll all join Georgie in heaven. The spirits told me so.' "Again I succeeded in controling her. But now she talked, talked, talked spirits, and of Georgie, and what we would do in heaven. "It was about 12 now, and except for her mutterlngs, quiet. Across the hall a clock struck between what seemed ages. I wanted to scream out for help, but knew no one could hear." Four times during the night, according to Miss Warren, she had to sit on Mrs. Story in order to control her. Toward morning she was unable tc cope with the insane woman, whose strength seemed doubled. Finally Mrs. Story, she says, broke "Her Knee Pinned Me Down." away and, grabbing a penknife, ad vanned on her. Miss Warren tried to open the door, which was locked, but, unable to turn her back on her sister, coulun't do it Finally she closed with her attacker, in n last struggle to obtain the knife This time she was overpowered and hurled to the floor. "Her knee pinned me down," says Miss Warren, "and then I felt some thing enter my side. I screamed with all my might, but no one came. 1 screamed again. Still no one an swered. Then, just as I was about tc give up, I hclrd steps, the glass in ttu door fell in and 1 was saved."

Companion of Irritated Divines Came to the Front with Order to the Walter. Joaquin Miller ia to establish a colony of poets in Fruitvale, Cal. Mr. Miller, discussing this colony recently, said: "We poets will, of course, argue and squabble. That will be delightful. Arguments and squabbles over Matthew Arnold, Swinburne, Tennyson and Keats are pleasant and sensible things, you know. They are not like political or religious arguments, which in their bitter rancor always make me think of three Maine divines. "While three Maine divines were supping together, two of them began to argue about the comparative religious merit of the royal houses of Stuart and Orange. The argument became heated. The divines grew excited and angry. "'William III. was a great rascal/ roared the first, as he struck the table with his fist 'A great rascal, and I spit upon his memory!' "The second divine, turning very red, shouted: u 'No, It's James II. that was the rascal. I spit upon his memory!' At this point the third divine rang the bell, and said gently to the waiter: M 'Spittoons for two, please.'

Jones pastor of the North Woodward Avenue Otmg'i church preached at that place Sunday Aug. 1, jlonday, Aug. 2. drew a full months pay and Tuesday the 3rd, left for parts unknown and nothing ha* been learnof his whereabouts since. We clip the following from the Detroit Free press: On Sunday morning, Aug. 1, he preached to the congregation at the corner of Blaine avenue the last sermon before his vacation. That afternoon he took dinner with hia father. Early in the week, his wife, who had been spending the gammer with hiax and their two young sons at Cavanaugh lake near Ann Arbor, received a letter from him stating that he would be detained in the city until Wednesday or Thursday. As he did not arrive on either of those days, the last of the week Mrs Jones telephoned to his father and being assured that he was probably in one of two or three places suggested, she waited until Monday tha 8th, when returning to their home »t 138 Josephine avenue, ehe found papers that indicated he had made a deliberate and permanent departure. The papers which Mr. Jones left were of the most meager description and were practically of the tenor of the one which was directed to Mr. O. J. Wright, the chairman of the church trustees, containing the resignation of his pastorate which simply says that he "will be out of the city after a certain date." There was apparently but brief premeditation, the endeavor was to make hiB disappearance absolute by leaving as many days as possible between his peparture and its discovery. Rev. Jones had labored hard the past year in uniting two Gong'l churches in the city and making one large and influential church. He had also been instrumental in the erection ot a beautiful edifice on North Woodward ave for the two societies to worship in and 't is thought that the large amount of work had unbalanced his mind. He has mauy friends wherever he has been who are saddened to learn of his trouble and hope that all may soon be explained and that he will turn up all right. Sports Day at Gregory. Bills were issued this week for a Sports day held at Gregory Aug. 31. Great arrangements have been made for plenty of gensine sport and every one is invited to attend. One of the attractions will be a game of "Push Ball" between the townships of Iosco and Unadilla. This is a new game for this section and will be interesting. There will be a ball game between the Stockbridge and Pinckney teams and then the Jackson Automobile team will play the winners. There will be other sports and the admission to all is 15 and 20 cents. Game of Push ball called at 1 p and other games to follow. m. Hihs Helen Reason visited relatives in Detroit the past week. Willis Dnnning and wife visited friends in Manistique and Owosso the past week. Dr. and Mrs. H. £. Brown of Stockbridge and Dr. Dnane Brown, wife and son Phillip of Jackson were guests of Chas.

It is a little late to do much good now, but have you cut ttose foul weeds in and around your farm or other property. This applies as well to people in the villages. They should have been cut before they went to seed. Fifty two tickets were sold from here to Detroit Thursday last for the Unadilla Odd Fellow excursion. Not as large a crowd was on as usual probably on account of the nearness to the dates of the State Fair. They had a fine day for the trip, however. Miss Lillian Boyle has sold her millinery stock to Miss Frances Reynolds of Jackson, Mich. Miss Boyle regrets exceedingly leaving Pinckney and wishes through the columns of this paper to thank her many friends for their patronage and many acts of kindness daring her number of years among them. Miss Reynolds comes very highly recommended having had a number of years experience in the work as a designer. We feel sure she will meet with the same cordial welcome. Goodbye Cigarette*.

PINCXN8T, - - • MICHIGAN BUILDING OF CITIES. The conference ot national Interests, so the subject of toe building of cities, at Washington, has taken up a big subject, says the Buffalo Express. Just what progress it can make with an important problem remains to be seen. We all realise that almost no cities are built as they should be. Almost no cities are built in circumstances that will permit them to be built as they should be. The few exceptions are cities like Gary, Ind., which is built from nothing to a full grown community at once. Most cities are merely a matter of growth. They have small beginnings, and as the community grows it provides for its Immediate needs a s they arise. The small community canot afford to look very far ahead. A comparatively few years at the most is all that can be considered. So when the community outgrows, the needs for which it provided a few years before, it has simply to do the work over again on a little larger scale. If the modern city could be planned and built at the outset on a scale which would probably provide for its needs many years ahead, then It would avoid many of the evils from which the average city suffers. And it could safeguard its own rights and have the enjoyment of many improved conditions which would be very difficult and very costly to obtain at the present time. Amid many complaints that professions are overcrowded and trades over-supplied with workmen, it Is refreshing to learn that there are educational branches badly undermanned— or underwomaned, says the Los Angeles Herald. When the new era In education was begun, with a recognition of the Importance of the gymnasium, the playground and the football field in the education of a "complete American," the demand for medical inspectors and examiners, school nurses, supervisors and directors of physical education, supervisors of Instruction for playground work and for Instructors in athletics was increased steadily until now it far exceeds the supply. The overturning of a motor boat was the cause of the drowning of four persons at Coshocton, 0 . Small power craft have become so popular that "landlubbers" aro In need of warning concerning the dangers of fast going on the water. Motorboats are mere cockleshells which sink under the weight of their machinery when they capsize; and their lightness makes them extremely sensitive to sudden alterations in weights. There should be air chambers at the bow and stern to provide buoyancy in emergencies, after the manner in which metal rowboats and sailing boats are constructed. Bolivia is said to have assumed a defiant attitude, refusing to apologize to Argentina for the affronts offered to the latter's diplomatic representative because of the boundary line decision. IB Bolivia acting the part of a spoiled and sulky child, or is it the prevailing Idea down there that the only arbitration which "goes" is that in which the finding is on the Bolivian side? Extreme summer heat Is a very hard thing to bear and entails real suffering, but the number of deaths and prostrations from the heat bear a \ery small proportion to the total population. This is a fact which ought to encourage people to cultivate endurance, which really lessens the af fliction as much as worry and dwp' ling upon it increases suffering. A noblewoman of Austria-Hungary is looking for an American husband of richeB. Considering what success the titled men have made of annexing American dollars through matrimonial means, it is no wonder that the women are trying to get into the game. But the latter has small chance of competing with the American girl on the latter's own preserves. Prance appears to have caught the warship fever. The cabinet has approved a program which involves the expenditure of $600,000,000 in ten years for naval construction and the building of twelve big battleships. That country is thrifty and has money in abundance, if not "to burn." But la not that a costly proceeding even {or t nation so well fixed? ««•»»»•*• •<•"!•••**>»«*• *•*•»• SAROEN HOSE STARTS A BLAZE AND SHE TURNED T H E HOSE ON HER NEIGHBOR 8 0 NOW T H E LAW STEPS I N . A BITTER SOCIAL FEUD. Grand Haven Society is Rent, the Court is Appealed To and Now Comes An Interesting Hearing. Society in Grand Haven is torn by a bitter feud of such social proportions that Attorney General Bird has found it necessary tu take a hand in the judicial effort at^its settlement. The principals in the womtn'a war are Mrs. Corie C. Coburn, whose husband 1B prosecuting attorney and a political leader of more than local influence, and Mrs. Mary Boyce, widow of one of the big lumber kings. The ill-feeling between the two women was brought to a climax when Mrs. Coburn, watering her lawn with a hoBe, saw Mrs. Boyce standing at an open window in her mansion next door watching. Whether there was a preliminary exchange of compliments, spoken or by signs, is not known, but it is charged that Mrs. Coburn suddenly turned the hosu upon Mrs. Boyce and soaked her thoroughly with water before she could escape. Mrs. Boyce wanted a warrant for her enemy, but feared she could not arrest the prosecutor's wife. She asked Justice Wachs, and he, also dubious, wrote to Attorney General Bird, A warrant was issued and served on Mrs. Coburn. The case was brought before Justice Wachs and Mrs. Coburn demanded a change of venue, declaring the justice w a s prejudiced. She insisted that the trial go to Justice Hoyt, who Is a friend of State Warden Pierce. The change was granted and Justice Hoyt is hunting for a temporary courtroom large enough to hold an audience which will include all ihe social lights allied with both factions. The trial will be the most important social event Grand Haven has seen for many years. The feud has literally divided Grand Haven women of wealth and social pretensions into two rival camps. Both leaders are wealthy, and their homes are the finest in the city. Before her marriage to Coburn Mrs. Coburn was the widow of Hmry W. Buswell, a rich lumberman. Attorney General Bird will bo present at the hearing, either in pert'on or by deputy. The Soldiers Return. Fatigued by 10 hard days of military maneuvers at Camp liarrah and j grimy and travel-stained by their j journey over the dusty railroad from Ludington, the slate troops have returned to their honv^s. | "It was the hardest camp so fir as j actual work was concerned, that the I boys have ever put in." said one of ] the officers. "There were not many j dress parades, such as wo can have i every night in cvir armory, lui' it was j all scouting ami military tactics. where every private had to think for himself. The companies have improved 50 per cent in efficiency in consequence. In spite of the bard work the boys all enjoyed it and I think that the majority of them would gladly put in 10 days more." Reveille at Camp Hnrruh sounded at 0 a. m., and after a hurried hrrakfast the troops srt at the hard task j of cleaning up camp and striking I tents. Owing to the heavy dew i which had soaked the canvas it was necessary to leave the tents to dry in the sun before packing. A detail of men was left behind to superintend the loading. Died a Ravlnn Maniac. Continually calling in the delirium of his last four days for his daughter, Mrs. Yary Jane Cleminson, whose mysterious death in Chicago several weeks ago resulted in the Indictment of her husband, Dr. Haldane Cleminson. on a charge of murder, John Mfpan died in Scuth Haven of meninr I is, as the record reads. After the tragedy Morgan aged rapidly. His remaining children tried to divert his mind from the tragedy, but to no purpose. For a week he had recognized no one. In fancy his thoughts reverted to the time when his lost daughter was a little girl playing at his knee, and he called to her with the pet names she had borne in childhood. Pointing an accusing finger at an imaginary figure he would shriek forth_imprecations and curses against his daughter's slayer, until the weeping children around him shuddered. The Largest Drain. The dredging of the Maple rlvei was completed last week by the Chicago company^ which had the coniract, thus ending the largest drainage job ever done in Michigan. The work was commenced three years ago last October, and has been going on day and night ever since. The river was dredged out for 2* miles, beginning at its head In Shiawassee county.

The explosion of the locomotive boiler from some cause while the train waa running at a fairly rapid rate of speed, tore the engine, baggage car and a day coach t o pieces and piled them up in a tangled heap of iron, steel and splintered wood upon and beside the tracks. The next car, a sleeping car, waa thrown from the rails but was not demolished, and the second sleeper was not derailed. Engineer William Bradley, whose home was in Ionia, was burled and crushed beneath the ruins of the engine, his body being taken out with difficulty some hours after the accident. Fireman Fred L.

Hiram Hathaway, aged 82, living near Grand Rapids, was driven suddenly mad by worry over the illness of his wife, attacked relatives and neighbors in his farm house and drove them out of doors with an ax. He was taken to the detention hospital. It is now believed that the mysterious fire which destroyed the plant of the Freeman Lumber Co., in Engandine, Mackinac county, was the work of an incendiary. The mill, which was closed for the summer, was valued at $7,000, and will be rebuilt at once. Justice James M. Smith, of Hastings, has a broken arm and severe bruises as the result of being jerked from his horse and dragged by the cow which he was leading on a 30- foot chain.

Bruce Smith, the latter a blind newspaper man of Saginaw, will succeed Bateman. THE MARKETS. ^ : The Missing Pastor. It is probable that no formal action regarding the resignation of Rev. Carl Sumner Jones, the missing Detroit pastor, will be taken in the near future by either the board of trustees of the church, or by the church as a body. It is felt that if Mr. Jones Is mentally deranged, he may on recovery return and take up his work. In the meantime, developments show more and more that the minister's disappearance was deliberate and well-planned. It is said that Mr. Jonea, before going away, divided his property equally between himself and his wife. It is thought that there are two ways In which he may be traced. If, as is expected, he surrenders his life Insurance for its cash value, his address may be learned through the company. If he tries to dispose of his Cavanaugh lake property, It will become necessary for him to obtain his wife's signature. It is now known that since he has been at the North Woodward avenue church, Mr. Jones hag refused two flattering calls from other churches. "He told me of one," said the missing man's father, "but I do not feel at liberty to name the church. He refused because, as he told me, he felt it his duty to remain here until the North church was well established." Was a Fierce 8torm. The elements in the upper regions over Detroit and vicinity went crasy with the heat on Sunday and broke loose In a fierce battle about 5:30 in the afternoon,, sending forth electric bolts which caused the death of one man, seriously injured another, damaged the cupola of the county building, deluged thousands of pleasure seekers with a veritable cloudburst, uprooted trees and struck terror to the hearts of many people in frail craft on the river. It waa a purely local storm, spending it* entire fury within a radius of five miles, being particularly furious on Belle Isle. It was the second hottest day of the season, June 12 being about a degree hotter, the thermometer then registering 90 degrees. The weather men, however, say that it was not an unusually heavy storm. ir ill -1 I T --mm i - • • • • Saginaw buaineas Interests art working for a i0-foot channel from the city through to Saginaw hay.

At noon, hajjhig_lparn$d that Winthrope's condition showed little change, Blake ate a hearty meal, and at once get off down the cleft. He did not reappear until nightfall; though at intervals Miss Leslie had heard his step as he came up the ravine with his loads of thorn-brush. This course of action became the routine for the following ten days. It was broken only by three incidents, all relating to the important matter of food supply. Wlnthrope had Boon tired of broth, and showed such an insatiable craving for cocoanut milk that the stock on hand had become exhausted within the week. The day after, Blake took the rope ladder, as he called the tangle of knotted creepers, and went off towards the north end of the cleft. When he returned, a little before dark, the lower part of his trousers^was torn to shreds, and the palms of his hands were blistered and raw; but he carried a heavy load of cocoanuts. After a vain attempt to climb the giant palms on the far side of the river, he had found another grove near at hand, in the little plain, and had succeeded in reaching the tops of two of the •mailer palms. Under his directions, Miss Leslie clarified a bowl of bird fat—goosegrease, Blake called it—and dressed his hands. Yet even with the bandages which she made of soft inner bark and the handkerchiefs, he was unable to handle the thorn-bruBh the following day. Unfortunately for him, he wgs not content to sit Idle. During the night he had cut a bamboo fishing pole and lengthened Miss Leslie's line of plaited co^oanut-flber with a long catgut leader. In the afternoon he completed his outfit with a hairpin fepok and a piece of half-dried meat. ^Be was back an hour earlier than ajlual, and he brought with him a fpzen or more fair-sized fish. His mouth wag watering over the prospective feast,, and Miss Leslie showed herself hardly lets eager for a change from their monotonous diet. As the flab were already dressed, she raked up the coals and quickly contrived H grill of green bamboos. When.the odor of the broiling 4sh spread about in the still air, evex* Wlnthrope sniffed and turned over, while Blake watched the crisping delicacies with a ravenous look. Unable to restrain himself, he caught up the smallest fish, half cooked, and bolted it down, with inch baste that he burnt hit mouth. He ran over to the spring for a drink, and Wlnthrope cackled derisively. Mfis Leslie was too absorbed In her cooking to obaerve the result of Blake's greeoimM. She had turno* , !

He writhed, and stretched out a quiveriag hand—''Salt, quick!—warm waters-fall?" *But jther«'a none leftJ You romeav ber^ yesterday *—* "God!" groaned Blake, and for a moment he tank down, overcome by a racking convulsion. Then hit Jaw closed like a bulldog's, and gritting his teeth with the effort, he staggered up and rushed off down the cleft. "Stop! stop, Mr. Blake! Where are you going V screamed the girl. She started "to run after him, but was halted by an outburst of delirious laughter. Wlnthrope was sitting trprigfat and waving bis fever-blotched hands—"Hi, *•! look at 'in* run! 'Its got w'at'll do for 1m! Run, you swine; you—" There followed a torrent of cockney abuse so foul that Miss Leslie blushed scarlet with shame as she sought to quiet him. But the excitement had so heightened his fever that he was in a raving delirium. It was close upon midnight before his temperature fell, and he sank into a death-like torpor. In her ignorance, she supposed that he haji. fallen asleep. Her relief was short-lived, for soon she remembered Blake. She could him lying beside the pool or out on the bare plain, his resolute eyea cold and glassy, his powerful body contorted in the death agony. The vision filled her with dismay. With all his coarseness, the man had showed himself so resourceful, so indomitable, that when she sought to dwell upon her reasons to fear him, she found herself admiring his virile manliness. He might be a brute, but he did not belong among the jackals and hyenas. Indeed, as she called to mind his strong face and frank, blunt speech she all but .disbelieved what her own ears had heard. And anyway, without his aid. what should she do? Wlnthrope had already become as weak as a child. The emaciation of-his jaundiced features was a mockery of their former plumpness. Blake had said that the fever might run on for another week, and that even if Wlnthtope recovered, he would probably be helpless for several days besides. What was no less serious, though she had concealed the fact from Blake, she herself had been troubled the past week with the depression and lassitude which had preceded Wlnthrope's attack. If Blake was dead, add she should fall 111 before Wlnthrope recovered, they would both die from lack of care. And if they did not die of the fever, what of their future, here on this desolate savage coast? But the very keenness of her mental anguish so exhausted and numbed the girl's brain that she at last fell into a heavy sleep. The fire burned low, and shadowy forms began to creep from behind the bamboos and the trees and rocks down the gorge. There was no sound; but greedy, wolfish eyes gleamed in the starlight. Only the day before Blake had told Miss Leslie to store the last rack or cured meat inside the baobab. The two sleepers lay between the fire and the entrance to the hollow. Slowly the embera of the fire died away into gray asheB, and slowly the night prowlers drew nearer. The boldest of the pack crept close to Miss Leslie, and, with teeth bared and back bristling, sniffed at the edge of her skirt. Whether because of her heavy breathing or the odor of the leopard skin, the beast drew away, with an uneasy whine. There was a pause; then, backed by three others, the leader approached Wlnthrope. He was still lying in the death-like torpor, and he lacked the protection which, in all likelihood, the leopard skin had given Miss Leslie. The cowardly brutes took him for dead or dying. They sniffed at him from head to foot, and then, with a ferocious outburst of snarls and yells, flung themaelves upon him. Had It not chanced that Wlnthrope was lying upon his side, with one arm thrown up. he would have been fatally wounded by the first slashing bites of his assailants. The two which sought to tear him were baffled by the thick folds of Blake's coat, while their leader's slash at the victim's throat was barred by the upraised arm. With a savage snap, the beast's jaws closed on the arm, biting, through to the bone. At the same instant the fourth jackal tore ravenously at one of the outstretched legs. With a shriek of agony, Wlnthrope started up from his torpor, and struck out frantically in a fary of pain and terror. Startled by the violence of this unexpected resistance, the jackals leaped back—only to sprtng "in again as the remainder of the pack made a rush to foreatatl them. Wlnthrope was staggering to his feet, when the foremost brute leaped upon him. He fell hgavily against one of the main supports of hie bamboo canopy, and 4ke entire structure* camo down wjth a crash. Two of tho • w T tjaekaJeV caught beneath the roof, howled with fear as they sought to free themselves. The others, With brute-dread of an unknown danger, draw away, snarling and; gnashing their teeth. Wakened, .by the first ferocious yelps of Wlnthrope's assailants, Miss Leslie had started up and stared about in the darkness.. Qn all sides she could see f pairs of fiery eyes and dim forms like the phantom creatures of a nightmare. Wlnthrope's shriek, instead of spurring her to action, only confused jher the more and benumbed her faculties. She thought it was his death cry, and stood trembling, transfixed with horror. Then came the. fall of the canopy. His cries as he sought to throw it off showed that he was "still alive. In a flash her bewilderment vanished. The stagnant blood surged again through her arteries in a fiery, stimulating torrent. With a cry, to which prinaeval instinct lent a menacing note, Bhe groped her way to the fallen canopy, and stooped to lift up One side. "Quick!—into the tree!" she ca'led. Still frantic with terror, Winthroi.* struggled to his feet She thrust him towards the baobab, and followed. dragging the mass of interwoven bamboos. Emboldened by the retreat of their quarry, tbe snarling pack instantly began to close in. Fortunately they were too cowardly to rush at once, and fear spurred their intended victims to the utmost haste. Groping and stumbling, the two felt their way to the baobab, and Miss Leslie pushed Wlnthrope headlong through the entrance. As he fell, she turned to face the pack. The foremost beasts were at the rear edge of the bamboo framework, their eyes close to the ground. In stlnct told her that they were crouching to leap. With desperate strength she caught up the canopy before her like a great shield, and drew it iu after her until the ends of the crossbars were wedged fast against the sides of the opening. Though it seemed so firm, she clung to it with a convulsive grasp as she felt the pack leaders fling themselves against the outer side. But Blake had lashed the bamboos securely together, and none of the beasts was heavy enough to snap the Bupple bars. Finding that they could not break down the barrier, they began to scratch and tear at the thatch Which covered the frame. Soon a pair though the white teeth graaed her wrist, she drove home a thrust that changed the beast's snarls into a howl of pain. Before she could strike again, It had struggled back oat of the hole, beyond reach. Tense and panting with excitement, she leaned forward, ready to stab at the ue*t beast. None appeared, and presently she became aware that the pack had been daunted by the experience of their unlncky fellow. Their snarls and yells had subsided to whines, which seemed to be coming from a greater distance. Still she waited, with the bamboo stake upraised ready to strike, every nerve and muscle of her body tense with the strain. So great was the stress of ber fear and excitement that she had not heeded the first gray lessening of thej night. But now the glorious tropical dawn came streaming out of the east in all its red effulgence. Above and through the bamboo barrier glowed a light such as might have come from a great Are on the cl!ff top. Still tense and immovable, the girl stared out up the cleft There was not a jackal iu sight. She leaned forward and peered around, unable to believe such good fortune. But the night prowlers had slunk off in the first gray dawn. The girl drew in a deep, shuddering sigh, and Bank back. Her band struck against Wintbrope's foot. She turned about quickly and looked at him. He was lying upon his face. She hastened to turn him upon his side, and to feel his forehead. It was cbol and moist. He was fast aBleep and drenched with sweat. The great shock of his pain and fear and excitement had broken his fever. With' the relief and joy of this discovery, the girl completely relaxed. Not observing Winthrope's wounds, which had bled little, she sought to force a way out through the entrance. It was by no means an easy task to free the wedged framework, and when, after much pulling and pushing, she at last tore the mass loose, she found herself perspiring no less freely than Wlnthrope. (TO BE CONTINUED.) T H E GERMAN DOCTOR'S GRAFT. The Girl Was Now Frantic. of lean jaws thrust in anrl snapped at the girl's skirt. She sprang back, with A cry: "Help! Quick, Mr. Winthrope! They're breaking through!" Wlnthrope made no response. She stooped, and found him lying inert where he had fallen. She had only herself to depend upon. A screen of sharp sticks which she had made for the entrance was leaning against the inner wall, within easy reach. To grasp it and thrust it against the other framework was the work of an instant. Still she trembled, for the eager beaAta had ripped the thatch from the canopy, and their inthrust jaws made short work of tbe few leaves on her screen. Unaware that even a lion or a tiger is quickly discouraged hy the knife-like splinters of broken bamboo. she expected every moment thnt the jackals would bite their way through her frail barrier. She remembered the sharpened stakes of her screen, hidden under the leaves and grass of her bed. She groped her way across the hollow. and uncovered one of the stakes?. In her haste she cut her hand on its rasor-like edge. All unheeding, she •prang back'towai*ds the entrance She waa none too soon. One of the smaller jackals had forced its head and one leg between the bars, and was stru^- J gting to enlarM th* opening. j Fearful that the whole pack was ; about to burst in upon her, the girl i grasped the hatnboo stake In both ! t hands, and began stabbing and Inn/ j lng at the beast with all her strength. I The jackal squirmed Bird snarled and I snapped viciously. But the girl w»; ' now frantic. She pressed nearer, and Well-Planned Swindle in Which 2 Millionaire Was "Stung." A daring and well-planned swindle on a large scale was that executed by a German doctor and his confederates. Near a small village in one of the lake states lived a western millionaire in seclusion with his little daughter and a few servants. The child was afflicted with a rare cerebrospinal complaint, a most unpleasant manifestation of which was a frequent bark-like hiccough, and eminent physicians, both in America and Europe, had pronounced the case organic and incurable. u Later there came to live in the village a widow with a little girl afflicted similar to the millionaire's daughter. The child was a delicate, flower-faced creature, wistful from the isolation that must have been her sad lot, and the peculiar bark-like hiccough which she made at once attracted the millionaire's attention and. being a bighearted if rather ignorant man, he gave the mother employment about his home and showered the afflicted child with presents. Perhaps four months after the widow's advent an eccentric German doctor settled in the village, and his service being sought by the widow he gave her child treatment, with the result that it was completely cured. The millionaire immediately sought to place his own daughter under the German's care, but the latter flatly refused to take the case. He was a Socialist of a violent type and would have nothing to do with a man whose wealth exceeded the sum that he had fixed upon as the lawful limit of material possession. Finally, however, after the father had patiently borne the grossest insults, the German agreed to give the afflicted clild treatment, on condition that the other would first deed over a large tract of land in Texas for a Socialist colony and pay him for his fee a sum little short of $50,000. This the millionaire did. but as soon as The doctor had cashed the check he disappeared with the widow and her child, and the wealthy man realized that, blinded by paternal love, he had been made the victim of an ingenious swindle. The flower-faced girl of the widow had been taught to simulate a disease, and the German was no doubt her father. He was subsequently located in Buenos 'Ayres, but the injured man. not wishing his daughter's affliction published broadcast, dropped the prosecution.—Don Mark Lemon, in the Hoheminn Magazine.

LESSON IN NATURAL HISTORY Amusing* But Somewhat Expensive, as Mlas Patty Realized Whan the Goat Was Through. Miss Patty Sbepard of North Thirteenth street went to the country with a party of friends on Memorial day. They stopped at a farmhouse where some of the party are well known. - Browsing about was an old goat When Miss Patty aaw her the nanny was placidly nibbling at a few blades' of grass/and she Innocently thought that goats were strictly vegetarians. On the lawn in front of the porch she had put her handsome new peachbasket bat, trimmed with pretty artificial roses, which she had got from the store the night before. The goat saw tbe hat and advanced joyfully toward i t Miss Patty laughed. "The old think thinks they're real roses," she laughed. "Won't she be tooled when she smellB them?" Everybody sat still to watch the goat smell the artificial flowers and walk away. But the goat fooled them. The next week Miss Patty bought another hat—Philadelphia Times. WANTED THE DATE Preacher—Tommy, I hear you have been telling lies. I never told lies when I was your age. Tommy—When did you begin, sir? Wedding Fee in Installments. Some of the squires in rustic New Jersey seem to be pretty hard pushed for cash. To get the cash they do not hesitate to use most unusual methods. One of these J. P.'s advertised the other day that he was ready and willing to marry couples at any time, day or night, for a consideration of |5 and that he was willing to accept $1 in cash down and the rest in weekly installments of $1 until the fee of $P was paid up. The very night after th€ first appearance of this advertisemeni the J. P. referred to was called upon to "make good" his bluff. Shortly after midnight a couple which had come in an automobile awakened him from his sleep and asked to be married under the installment plan offered in the advertisement. And the J. P. waa game and made good. . 4 The Difference. Edward, having been refused another baked potato on the simple but convincing ground that there were no more, according to the New York Sun, made some uncomplimentary remark about the insufficiency of his dinner. "This isn't dinner," corrected the aunt whom he was visiting. "This is luncheon. You don't eat dinner in the middle of the day. You eat that at night." The next day the aunt, being anxious to know if Edward had assimilated his lesson of the day before, said: "Edward, can you tell me now the difference between dinner and luncheon?" "You bet I can," said Edward, very promptly. "Lunch is the meal where you don't get enough to eat." T H R E E REASONS Each with Two Legs and Ten Fingers. A Boston woman who is a fond mother writes an amusing article about her experience feeding her boys. Among other things she says: "Three chubby, rosy-cheeked boys, Rob, Jack and Dick, aged 6, 4 and 2 years respectively, are three of our reasons for using and recomending the food, Grape-Nuts, for these youngsters have been fed on Grape-Nuts since infancy, and often between meals when other children would have been given candy. "I gave a package of Grape-Nuts to a neighbor whose 3 year old child was a weazened little thing, ill half the time. The little tot ate the Grape- Nuts and cream greedily an£ the mother continued the good work, and it was not long before a truly wonderful change manifested itself in tbe child's face and body. The results were remarkable, even for Grape-Nuts. "Both husband and I use Grape- Nuts every day and keep strong and well and have three of the finest, healthiest boys you can find in a day's march." Many mothers instead of destroying the children's stomachs with candy ind cake give the youngsters a handful of Grape-Nuta when they are begging for something in the way of >weets. The result is soon shown in rreatly increased health, strength and nental activity. "There's a Reason." Look in pkga. for the famous little ook, "The Road to Wellvilte." Ev»r tea* tfe» atov« letter?

Lrttia Insac'.s Trained to Do Wondsr ful Things on the Michigan State Fair Midway. When Frank Spellman, of Cincinnati, who has chargs of the Michigan State Pair .Midway, told Assistant General Manager Slocum that a flea circus was to he a feature of the Midway this year, Mr. Slocum looked Mr. 8pellma.n over and asked If the latter waB undergoing mental deterioration. "It's a fact," declared Spellman, "and I will show you." And, Hnre enough, Spellman made good and has proven to every official Of the Michigan State Fair that, a flea can be trained and will perform at the coming state exposition. These flea* are not the miserable creatures that cause troublesome lumps while one is enjoying the evening air in the north end. They are known as the German flea, and grow to be quite large. They are Intelligent and very apt pupils in the hands of a skillful trainer. Prof. John Ruhl, who Is master of the flea circus in Mr. Spellman'a Midway, has gomething like 500 performers, and their diversified acta are simply marvelous. Acrobats, gymnasts, dapesrs, tight-rope performers, dramatic actors, soldiers, artisans, buildera, etc., are members of Prof. Ruhr a aggregation. One of the most pleasing features is the grand hall given by Mr. and Mrs. Astorhlk Flea, to which ere invited one hundred of the upper c/'ust in the flea real society. The costumes worn »re of extreme elegance, and the dances beautifully executed, whether a square dance of the olden times or the modern waltz or two-step. The gentlemen ftoafc arc amllaat, while the ladies are graceful, coquettish, and not a few are veritable flirt*. The acrobats and jugglers art expert in their work, holding the spectators spellbound in amazement as the little perrnrnYers promptly respond to their master's word of command. Prof. Rnhl has two fleas that wero trained many years ago by his greatgrandfather about the time when Napolson crossed the Alps. Five other l i e u were trained by his grandfather In the days when King Wtiiimm was only a schoolboy, and with iom^ of his companions visited the exhibition Of trained flees presented in those days by Prof. Carl Ruhl, the elder. I O L I C E AND FIBEMBN AT FAIR. Every Precaution Will Be Taken at Michigan's Annual Exhibition te Protect Lives and Property of everyone Who Visits the Qreunde. T%e Maaatfement of the Mlohigaa Mate Fair, which opens this year oa September 1. at Detroit, aad continues until September 10, has planned to give the exhibition city every facility lor safety. This applies both to police and fire protection. This Is at It should be, a* thousands and thonsaade of dollars worth of property are taken to the grounds during the week of fair. The Detroit polios and the eaar- Iff and his deputies have planned this year, as heretofore, to make the exposition as safe from disorderly charaoters and thugs as is done down in Detroit. Gambling will not be permitted and everything that tends to lower the high standard of the fair will be eliminated. The protection against firs la at complete as any section of Detroit An engine house with a full equipment of metropolitan fire- fighters from the Detroit department will again he constantly on duty during tee exposition. With such facilities as these, it is almost impossible for a fire disaster to occur. The Michigan State Fair Is practically an organized olty and every comfort will be given visitors that can be secured down In Detroit. CHILDREN TO SING AT FAIR. Miss Gertrude Sackett to Load Chorus Consisting of Sixty Little Folks st Michigan's Annual Exhibition, This Ysar. One of the most pleasing features of the coming State Fair Is the children's chorus to be arranged by Miss Gertrude Sackett, of Detroit. A contract was closed with Miss. Sackett for this pleasing feature at a meeting of the fair officials held the present week. This energetic young woman has arranged to train sixty little girls, ranging from ten years and upwards, so that they can sing without music or words. They will appeal all in whits in the big grandstand in the grove, west of the main building, every day at the noon hour. The children's program is composed of patriotic songs both new and old and some novelties will be interspersed. These children will come from svery part of the city, and a few from the suburban towns. The Ladies' Navassar band will accompany the children in their singing, whloh will make one of the finest features Of this big exhibition. This band win eoms to Detroit direct from Toronto and besides accompanying the children's chorus, they will play every afternoon and evening. Kopp's band, the big Cincinnati aggregation, will be heard principally in the grandstand during the races, the horse show and the free acts. This is one of the finest musical organizations now appearing before the public, and has made a great success during the past summer. LADIES' BAND IS TO PLAY. Michigan State Pair Engages Two Big Aggregations to Furnish Music at the Coming Fair—Both Bodies Composed of Artists. Visitors at the Michigan State Fair, which opens this year on September 2, will have the pleasure of enoyjlng two of the largest and most celebrated bands in the United States. Kopp's aggregation, from Cincinnati, with thirty-five pieces and- the Navassar Ladies' band, with forty pieces, have been engaged for the. entire exhibition. Those two musical organizations have reputations all over the country for playing thrilling music with climaxes that bring audiences to their feet, with a bound. The Navassar Ladies' band will come to Detroit direct from the Toronto exhibition, where they have been- encased to play during the first week of that fair. Kach of these organizations is filled with artists of international fame. The fair management engages these two hands for their educational value as well as for entertainment. Eminent soloists will also sing at various times during the fair, which is an added tioat not usually enjoyed at snob exhibitions. The Michigan State Fair is really an educational institutional, and as such the management Is planning to make it the very best, through the means of high class talent and exhibits. FAIR WILL PLEASE EVERYONE. The modern state fair, such as that which will open in Detroit on Sept. 2, and continue until Sept. 10, is not :: commercial enterprise nor a moneymaking scheme, but a place where -.-;.r .s can lie exchanged and informa- '.-•• 'V.wnppnd." Farmers and others vi 1 meet ami discuss their common t.ro;iii!es and toll of their succeHs and failures. Men show what thty have done and others learn what can be doTie. '• A modern „tair also promotes industry by giving to all who attend a larger view of the possibilities of life This is an Industrial' era and if the farmer, merchant, mechanic and prot'es'sional man wish to keep piuce with the times they must know what ts being done in all the avenues of trad", commerce and manufacture. Ont-' way to do this is to take part in the annual Michigan State Fair. This institution is planned to educate and incite the producer to higher ideals of perfection.

If one has a forge and drill. 5-16x1 H Inch flat iron may be formed into a neat handle, but the wooden handle will be quite as serviceable If well braced by the cross boards; two by fours should be used for the side pieces.

These directions will be for making a roller 12 Inches long and 18 inches in diameter, weighing, therefore, about 400 pounds. Larger sizes may be made by merely changing the dimensions of the forms.

Take the eight pteoes cut out, lay them on the circle in the manner illustrated, with each piece just projecting beyond the circle. Nail these firmly together where they overlap, with small nails. Now mark \lve same circle on this form and cut put with a compass saw. Nail the 17-inch strip across this and bore a hole exactly in the center to fit the axle, which should be a piece of shafting one inch in diameter, or %-inch gas pipe, two feet long.

These results agree closely with those of previous years and demonstrate the almost universal adaptability of Boon* county white corn for the bottom lands and rich uplands of this part of the state. They also show that St. Charles and a variety known as commercial white are practically as well adapted to this region aa is the Boone county, yielding nearly the same as the average of all trials. Both St. Charles white and the commercial white are, however, somewhat better adapted to the average and thinner lands than is the Boone county white. These three varieties yielded last year over 12 bushels more per acre than the average yield corn in this section, yielding between 46 and 47 bushels per acre on an average of a large number of trials and in spite of the bad season. The highest yielding yellow variety is Reid's yellow dent. This variety is gaining a wide popularity in north Missouri and is especially adapted to the prairie soils of medium fertility. The legal tender variety comes second, the Hildreth yellow dent third and the Learning fourth. The yield of these varieties are all close together in the average, although the qual ity of both the legal tender and Hlldreth's yellow dent is somewhat below that of the Learning and Reid's yellow dent. FOR SMALL MAIDEN DAINTY MODEL IN SOFT SHADE OF OLD ROSE. Makes Attractive and Serviceable Little Frock—Design Is Also Good for Wear In the Fall or Winter. PLANTING FOR ONION SETS One Method Is to Choose Piece Rich Land Which Has Been Kept Free From Weeds and Worked. Onion seed for the production of sets can be sown in August. Some sow in drills, putting the seed in very thickly. The rows are about 14 in hes apart and the plot is cultivated to keep down the weeds. Another method is to choose a piece of rich vKSS Onion Harrow. land that has been kept free from weeds during the summer, preferably one on which some hoes crop has been grown. The ground is made mellow and the seed sown broadcast very thickly, so that the plants will stand so closely together that the bulbs cannot grow to large size. A harrow adapted for properly cultivating the soil in onion culture is shown in the above illustration. Deep Plowing. In general it may be stated that when the soil is plowed three inches deep the plants have three Inches of food, when plowed ftix inches deep, six inches of food, and when plowed ten inches deep, ten inches of food. Board Culture for Onions. Cood crops of onions have been grown on a small scale by a peculiar system which may be called "board culture." One grower tried the plan last year on a patch of six or eight square rods. The onion field was prepared in the usual way, with the rows Ifi inches apart, says the American Cultivator. Onion sets of the large, white varieties were then set out about six Inches apart In the rows. Boards a foot wide of the same length as the rows were placed between the rows, leaving a space of four inches for the onions to grow. The labor o' keeping the plants clean and cultivated waB very light and a big yield was gathered. About 700 feet of eheap boards were required. No doubt, 11 the rows had been only nine or ten Inches apart, with six-inch boards be tween the rows, a much larger quanti ty could have been grown on the same land. Clean up the .frass *dgeg around the shrubbery beds and borders, pick ing out any grass roots that may hav< run out in the soil This is the moment when the wardrobes of children bard on their clothing begin to show signs of wear and tear, some useful little garment or other, which is outgrown, faded or torn, needing to be renewed^ Boys are easily enough supplied offhand, but the mother, proud of her little daughter, who can sew well and An Excellent Model for Summer, Fall or Winter. knows all of the child's points, prefers generally to make the needed thing herself, knowing that the costume will very likely be more becoming and cheaper to boot than the ready-made gown The tinted cotton textures have never so charmingly suited little wearers, for eolors are extremely delicate and the patterns offered for children al: most as small as those used for doll babies. Narrow stripes, tiny checks, diamonds, spots and minute rosebuds appear in self-colored ginghams, the pattern In a darker shade, or In n PRETTY IDEA FOR A PRESENT Combing Jacket of Huckaback expensive, But Dainty and Useful Gift. In- An inexpensive present that would be nice either for an engagement or birthday anniversary gift is a combing jacket made of huckaback, that is now such a favorite in fancy work A strip of fine huck, a yard and a quarter long, is bought. This is folded double and a small opening cut in the center for a neck. The front half is then cut in a vertical line to meet this neck. With a spool, or by using some of the scallops that are embroidered on towels, a graceful, not too deep, scallop is marked across the bottom, sides, and up each half of the front opening. The rfeek may either be scalloped or* it can be finished in white braid or wash ribbon. The scallops are heavily padded with darning cotton and buttonholed in either white mercerized cotton or in a color. If the latter is chosen it should be deep in tone, as old blue, a rich red, or deep yellow—something that will not fade out in washing. Three large crochet buttons, or if the embroiderey 1B colored, bone buttons to match the Bcallop are put on each side of the neck opening. The convenient little garment is fastened by white cord loops. If preferred the edges of the huck can be hemmed or edged with a fiat linen or torchon lace, and a cross stitch or darning pattern in dull rich coloring darned in. This border can be of any desired wtdth, but will look best if about two Inches wide, running entirely around the garment. No wonder a girl won't believe everything a fellow tolls h£r, for the latter will tell a girl he is living for her, and then add that he is dying for her. raised silk figure, and. such materials going prettily with hambufg embroideries or with torchon laces Thin white lawn, trlmme^ with a suitable edging, tucks and little beari- Ings, Is the preferred material as long as summer lasts for the frocks of the smaller girls; and while exquisite and all but priceless in the fljaer hand-made shapes, such dresses may be both effective and inexpensive. As the summer advances, too, short lengths in all wash materials become greatly reduced and since trimmings likewise fall in price, there seems really BO excuse why girl children,, at least, may not be eternally fresh and sweet. So In looking for materials for the second summer supply, remember that anything in white is suitable and that Unted things must be in a different tone, and show small patterns. For the rest every half-yard or yard of fine white may be put to account, for dotted muslin and swlss make charming berthas and insertions for colored cottons of the finer sort, and when tt comes to the practical frock a material in one tone may be trimmed with a plaid or stripe in any color. Linen in a soft shade of old rose, with embroidery executed in white mercerized thread, makes an attractive and serviceable little frock, such SB in shown in the illustration, which would have a slimming tendency for a too pudgy child. There is the new princess effect at the front and back, while the flare of the plaited skirt gives comfort to little legs and the properly childish note. Later the same model would be an excellent one for autumn and winter materials, the high neck and long sleeves offering much comfort for school wear and relief for the mother who is forever worrying about a clean guimpe. But if liked, dutch neck and short sleeves are possible with the cut, and this" Jn many materials would be much more suitable for further hot weather use. For the six-year size there will be required 4¾ yards of material 24 Inches wide, or 2% yards in 44 inch width. Prize Animals. A splendid prize for a juvenile party I- a box of imported cardboard toys in animal shapes. The figures are especially lifelike and durable In the Way of playthings and are furnished with joints, the method of which is paUt&ted. Six animals come in each set. Some of the boxes contain wild creatures, some our familiar friends of house or barn. On the back of each shape is printed a description in easy English of the animal'B habitat and habits.

Tn a*r Buourt o& UN.LImactoMBt BpruigStl4,U, Old him Jucklln, the young bridegroom, the bride and Mrs. Jucklln were gathered together discussing connubial bliss from a modem and ancient standpoint,' respectively. "The experiment of every weddln' (s the husband," be remarked, looking at the young man. "No matter how wise he may be, how good a judge of a hoss and the weather, sometbin' altogether different arises in his life when he takes unto himself a wife. He, thinks she is the simple rule of three, but before long he finds out that she is all mathematics, with a side light that dazzles but don't explain astronomy." Mrs. Jucklln spoke up. "Limuel, what are you trying to get at? You would have it appear that a woman is somethin* not to be understood." "Oh, no; she is perfectly plain and so is sunshine, but nobody can't pick it up and examine it to his own satis faction. Woman's all right. It's the young husband that I'm gettin' at—if I can. Marriage is a time when a mote gets into the eye of all experience. Things are looked at through winks— half light and half dark; makin' a sort of twilight for the soul; and in the golden dusk everything looks different from what it really is. Marriage was made to protect woman, and havin' been cut out for her like a garment, it fits her." "But don't it fit a man, too?" the bride timidly inquired. "Yes, my dear, with a takin' in here and a lettin' out there," the old man replied. "The man is the one that has to be tamed. He has to be broke in and made bridlewise, like a colt. With him marriage is an end; with her a beginnin'. Do you follow me?" "No, I'm afraid not," said the bride. "I thought not. But what do you think, Billie?" This was addressed to the bridegroom. "Don't know exactly. All I know is [ love Sallie and will always love her," and the pretty eyes of the brrde with silent music sang out, "now there." "I don't doubt that," said the old "Yes, we start out a waitin' for the wagon," replied the old man. "And we end silently/lying within its gloomy precincts," said the old minister. "Gracious me!" exclaimed Mrs. Jucklln, "are they goin' to preach a funeral right here?" Old Limuel laughed. • "I'm not I'm just tryin' to give Billie, there, a little bit of advice. And- as I was goin' to remark, I don't know of any- . "Oh.-l didn't have to keep track of the time. But 1 want to say to Billie that sUyln' out at night is one of the worst habits a man can fall into. It is the dark side of married life. No matter bow truthful a man may have started out, it makes him more or less a liar. Midnight and the truth ain't twins. And a man hasn't reformed when he cusses himself for bein' a fool. The wisest man feels be Is a fool when he stays out too late. There ain't no reproach more fetcbin' than to see the moon fadin' away in the heavens. Of course, a man can't stay at home all the time. The fact is, I'll be hanged if I know what he 1B to do. I'm not talkin' about the saint, but the flesh-and-blood man. You may try all you please to make a hymn of life, but the first thing you know a jig tune pops up. So, Billie, when you catch yourself inclined to whistle too many of the jigs, stop and ask Marriage Is the Time When a Mote Qsts Into the Eye of All Experience. thing that stands more in need of common sense than marriage—the young husband, I might say. He is as raw as unginned cotton. He begins by yieldin' to every persuasion and after a while rebels against himself. A woman never understands why she should surrender a territory that has graciously been presented to her. And the sweetest of all territories is the enjoyment of the spare time of her husband. She finds her mellowest pleasure in his society, and can't very well understand why she doesn't sup- "Many a Time I've Sat Up Waitin' for You," Said Mrs. Jucklin. man. "But the mprnln' sun is a shinin' on you now and the noontime of trial hasn't come. But it will come. This beautiful book you now possess is shown to you only a page at a time. You can't turn over the leaves and look at the pictures of the future. The plot must come to you a line at a time. The fact is, you've got to draw your )wn pictures for the book. Some of them will be painted and some made with charcoal." ' "I wish the wagon would come," spoke up the bridegroom, glancing through the window. ply his every want. He has told her ' time and again that she did. But there comes a time when he wants to stay out a night, to sniff the air of his former reckless freedom. It's his nature. It was her nature as an obedient daughter to stay at home of nights. And when she finds that she hasn't been strong enough to remodel his nature she grieves in her soul. "Many a night I've sat up waitin' for you," said Mrs. Jucklin. "Yes, but I came, didn't I?" "Yes," she admitted, "but at what time?" yourself if they pay in the long run. I don't mean that you should be serious. Nothin* is gained by bein* solemn. David is remembered as well for havin' danced before the ark as for some of bis psalms wherein he wanted the Lord to wipe out a whole lot of folks. Have all the fun you can, but recollect it ain't the healthiest fun if you have to lie about it to your wife. The old idea that a man is excusable for lyin' to his wife ain't a good one. When you have lied, and she has caught you, I am not at all certain that a generous acknowledgment will pay. And yet if you stick to it a long time must pass before you can live it down. A woman's memory is like the sun—it rises fresh every mornin'. Sometimes a simple lie is a fingerboard pointin' toword the courthouse where they keep divorces. A woman may admire a man because he's a good dancer, but in her heart she loves truth and honor. So, be as truthful as you can, and when you find that you have exhausted your stock ask her to help you to replenish it. Make a distress of your scarcity of truth and she will 6e pleased to nurse it. It will do her good. Marriage may start out as a picnic, you know, but a picnic has its cold victuals. To sum the whole thing up, do the best you can. Be patient. Remember that you are a man and that the foot of a man is nearly always on the verge of slippin'. And when it has slipped put it back with as little noise as possible. Tell the truth just as often as you can, and you will find it an investment that draws compound interest in gold." (Copyright, by Ople Read.) Hint to the Optimist.

The companies intend to do a general power business in different parts of the state. The counties in wfeich the plants will be located are mostly all situated in the northeastern part of the state, and are north of (he Thumb. Plants will be. located in Oakland and Genesee counties in southern Michigan and Arenac. Iosco, Bay, Osceola and Alcona counties commission, the same as the eompa nies already doing business.

St Petersburg reports that the presence of cholera is militating seriously against summer tourist travel. ThU ought to be reassuring to all Europe. When people wisely stay away from centers of disease there will be less likelihood that the germs will be scattered all over the continent If S t Petersburg cares for the traffic she has lost temporarily she should hasten her sanitation and also increase effort to stamp out the cholera. The drinking water there is contaminated, and every tourist who goes to the Russian capital takes a risk every time he drinks water that has not been boiled. Now they are saying that ex-President Reyes of Colombia, who cabled his resignation from Europe, "salted down" 125,000,000, and his countrymon are asking where he got it and how they can oblige him to give if up. But these may be merely malicious misrepresentations. Castro, who left Venezuela for Venezuela's good, in the opinion of a great many persons, was credited with fabulous riches. But according to later developments bis possessions shrank to comparatively little measure. As was expected, the cotton crop of 1908 was larger than the speculators for a rise pretended, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. It amounted to 13,- 587,000 bales, so the bureau of the census says, or 2,212,000 more than that of 1907. Only twice—in 1904 and in 1906—was the yield greater than that of 1908. The crop of 1904, which broke all the .records, was a little below the 14,000,000-bale mark. As, at present prices, cotton is a highly profitable crop, the presumption is that the acreage of 1909 is up at high figures. The English prime minister, in speaking on the possible invasion of England, the national bugaboo just now, gave the house of commons thei gloomy Information that if once Britannia ceased to rule the waves, somebody else would boss her. If this does not produce adequate appropriations for national defenses, other appeals are useless. Baby carriages, along with other vehicles, must carry red lights at the rear, in accordance with the speed laws of Los Angeles.

As a reminder to a forgetful public that the society is still in existence, the meeting appears to be a qualified success Otherwise the public is still spelling the tame old way. iCopyrlg-ht. 1909.) Speakers st Recent Irrigation Congress Claimed That the Nation's Water Power Was Being Absorbed by a Gigantic Power Trust. In the northern part of ihe state. The incorporators are Edward F. Loud and-H. Kimball Loud, of Au Sa ble; L. A. Wcod, William M. Eaton, John C. Weadock, of New York city; George E. Hardy, of Englewood, N. J.; W. H. Clark and E. Clark and George A. Crawford, of Detroit. The combined capital of the newly organized companies amounts to practically $3,500,000. It has npt yet been decided whether or not the offices of all the companies will be located at one central point. The water powers represented by the various companies practically include all the available water power left in the state. Similar action was taken by the controlling factors in the water power situation in the western part of the state a week ago, when two companies were formed to take ever the remaining water powers on the Muskegon and White rivers. The Interests which predominate in the new companies which have just filed articles are those which already control the power situation above Saginaw bay, and the western incorporators are the moving spirits in the Muskegon-Grand Rapids Power Co., which controls the Muskegon river. The purpose of filing articles of association of these various companies at this time is supposed to be the turning over of power franchises to incorporated companies before the new law governing water power companies goes into effect on the 1st of September. It entails additional difficulty in the granting of franchises to build dams and by taking over all the available sites at this time the companies avoid the operation of the law, although its restrictions are really minor ones, as the constitution already gives boards of supervisors entire control in the granting of franchises. In the matter of stringing wires and erecting stations and selling current, these new companies will be under the Jurisdiction of the railroad not broad enough to cover the act. The constitutional ground on which it is declared to be unsound is that the legislature had no right to delegate to the railroad commission the right to fix fates and also because It is in opposition to the home rule provision of the constitution in that the act gives the commission certain rights over the building of transmission lines which are in conflict to the provisions of the constitution, which gives cities, villages and townships the right of supervision over pole lines, etc. A test case will probably be taken to the supreme court immediately after the law becomes operative^ on Sept. 1. The incorporation of these companies is claimed to be a forerunner of the formation of a great holding company that will take over not only these 18 companies, but a number of still larger and more important ones in Michigan. It is said the promotion of these companies is preliminary to the merger of the Hodenpyl, Walbridge & Co. and E. W, Clarke & Co. interests in this state, a merger which was forecasted in The Detroit News Aug. 12, last. These interests (both the Hodenpyl-Walbridge and Clarke) include gas, electric and traction companies of Saginaw and Bay City; gas companies at Jackson. Kalamazoo. Pontiac and Flint; street railway of Grand Rapids; water and power companies of Big Rapids, and the Au Sable river power companies just incorporated. This information is further strengthenecKby the disclosure that George E. Hardy, one of the power company incorporators is a member of Hodenpyl. Walbridge & Co., of New York, and W. M. Eaton, also an incorporator, is former manager of Jackson and later Grand Rapids gas companies. W. H. Clarke, of Detroit, represents E. W. Clarke & Co., of Philadelphia, which company is already deeply interested In some of the companies that have Just been incorporated. Set on Fire by Boy. That his father told him to set fin to the barns of William Northrup anrl another neighbor named Cutler with whom the father had been quarreling was the story told Deputy 8herlff Reed by Charles Rose, 12-year-old son of William Rose, an elevator conductor In a Dowtgiac Btove plant. The reason for-,the deed, the boy says, was his father's desire to "clean out those Northrups." Marquette, which for years was one of ihe most important exporting ports on the great lakes, having three large docks where lumber vessels loaded, has witnessed the beginning of a new era.

A gang of hoboes on a box car tour stopped off long enough at Plymouth o carry a small safe through a window of the railroad depot and "jimmy" the lock in the dark shadows of Starkweather's big barn. The strong box contained <no money, and the pspers strewed about the weeds in disorder were picked up later. J. D. McLaren's elevator office was turned topsyturvy, but the big safe In the corner was not opened. The gang was seen making off in the morning before any arrests could be made, and it later transpired that the home of George Weed, at Lapham's Corners, was entered while the family was away and a trunk lightered of $800 in cash. As though to attach some humor to the spoliation, the marauders also purloined a large picture of Weed, owner of the stolen bank roll, from the wail Sight hundred persons drowned, 15,- 000 homeless and property damaged to the extent of $12,000,600, is the result of a flood which struck Monterey, Mexico, between 11 and 12 o'clock Saturday morning. For 72 hours rain had fallen in unprecedented' voliime throughout this section, and the Santa Catarina river rose gradually all day Friday, the crest of the flood reaching Monterey early in the morning. At first it was thought that there would be no loss pfjlfe. but the water had a hight never before attained and swept buildings from their foundations by the score,., The electric light plant was put out of commission and the complete darkness was an added horror. Cries of the drowning could be heard but the onlookers were powerless to reader aid. When daylight came, the scene was indescribable. AU through the flooded district, groups could be seen huddled on the tops of two story buildings, entirely surrounded by a tumultuous seething mass of water. One by one, these houses disappeared with their human freight. Nothing could live in the wild current of the Santa Catarina river, which was running at the rate of 20 miles an hour. During the early morning hours, the depth of water remained stationary and it was noon before a fall of four feet began. By 4 o'clock in the afternoon the river was back In its banks, only to go out of them again at 6 o'clock. beca««t of the continued downpour or rain. ; ••*•*• f t h e "Sahta"Catarina river run^ %\- mast directly through the center of Monterey.

For many months throughout the •year the Santa Catarina river is a dry bed absolutely devoid of wajer, but during the rainy season it becomes an important stream. For the past 48 hours such a deluge of rain had fallen that the stream reached unprecedented proportions and as its waters rose it completely inundated the poorer section of the city.

Another Earthquake Has Been Giving Italy a Shakeup. A heavy earthquake was felt throughout the province of Siena at 1:29 a. m. Wednesday. Practically all the houses in San Lorenzo were destroyed or badly damaged. Many persons were injured. The 'quake was felt most severely within a radius of 20 miles from Siena. Considerable damage was done at Buenoconvento. Several houses collapsed and one person was killed. Several persons were Injured at Monteroni. A number of houses also were damaged there, and masonry fell Into the streets. The shock was recorded at Piomblno, en the coast about 60 miles southwest of Siena, at 1:25 a, m., and there was a repetition of the quake later. People fled from their homes In terror, but no damage has been reported. Siena Itself escaped with a severe shaking. The people were badly frightened, however, and rushed out of their houses into the streets, where they wandered about in a state of semi-panic until they were assured that the quake was over. Siena province has an area of 1,470" square miles and a population of 233,- 000. The city of Siena la at an altitude of 1,000 feet and counts 30,000 inhabitants. San Lorenzo,- Buonoconvento, Monteren! and Ptombino are villages with populations ranging from 1,000 to 4,000. $5.D50eftcr>o6i.t6 5;— st eeCrast tlaen—d Dhreyi-ffeerds, 1.Us0tUee rtso, e1r.2H0,0 S0l0b s.t,o $14,.020&0Q >lb4.s7.6, ; |3s.t7e5e©rs4 .2u5n;d s hraetltfa- s1t,0e0e0r *l basn.,d $h3.eTifoe®r**. 2t5h; agt raasr«e fsatete,r 8s0 a0n tdo 1h3e.i2f5erfps3 .5t0h;a t chaoricee fafat,t 50c0ow tao, 70$03 ,7l5b9s ., m4.5o0n; cgoowods. f$a2t.5 0c®ow3;s , c$a3n.n2e5r0s3, .5$01;. 5c0o&m2-; tcoh oigcoeo d hebaovlyo gnbaus,l ls,b u$ll3s,. 50$^33.2.755: ; .stfoacikr 8b0u0l lst, o $12.0.5000 ®l3b; s,c 1h4o0ic4e. 35fe: edfainirg fesetedeirnsg, sHtetoecrkse, r8s,0 0 5t0o0 1 .t0o00 7l0b0s. ,l b$sG.,.,5 0$®3.45;0 c0h3o.7ic5e; sfatoirc kB hloecikfeerrss,. $530;0 m tiolk e7r0s0, llabrsg.e $,8 y©o.VunS5g;, emrs,e diu$m25 @a3g5.e , $40^60; common milk- $1V etaol $c1a.5lv0e sh—igMhearr ketth ang oolads; t cawleveeks,.

C. McClum * C o SYNOPSIS. The story opens- with the shipwreck of the steamer on which Miss Genevieve Leslie, an American heiress, Lord Winthrope, an Englishman, and Tom Blake, a brusque . American, were passengers. The three were tossed upon an uninhabited island and were the only ones not drowned. Blake recovered from a drunken stupor. Blake, shunned on Ihe 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 h»s 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 waa compelled to carry Miss Leslie on account of weariness. He taunted winthrope. They entered the jungle. That night w a s paased roosting high In a tree. The next morning they descended to the open again. All three constructed hats to shield themselves from the sun. v They then feasted on cocoanut*, the only procurable food. Miss Leslie showed a liking for Bteke, but detested his roughness. Led by Blake they established a home in some cliffs. Blake found a fresh water spring. Miss Tjeslte faced an unpleasant situation. They planned their campaign. Blake recovered his surveyor's magnifying glass. thus insuring fire. He started a jungle fire, killing a large leopard and smothering several cubs. In the leopard's cavern they built \ small home. They gained the cliffs by burning the bottom of a frea.WRUl it fell against-\he heights. The trio secured eggs from the cliff*. Miss "I^eslle's white skirt was decided upon as a signal. Miss Lee lie made u ?|ress from the leopard skin. Blake's eforts to kin antelopes failed. Overhearing a conversation between Blake and Winthrope. Miss Leslie b^i-ame frightened, winthrope became ill with fever. Blake waa poisoned by a fish. Jackals attacked the camp that night, but were driven off by Genevlsvn. CHAPTER XIV.—Continued. She was far too preoccupied, however, to consider what this might mean. Her first thought was of a Are. She ran to her rude stone fireplace and raked over the ashes. They were still warm, but there was not a live ember among them. Yet she realized that Winthrope must have hot food when he awakened, and Blake had carried "with him the magnifying glass. For a little she stood hesitating. But the defeat of the jackals had given her courage and resolution such as she I had never before known. She returned Into the cave, and chose the sharpest of her stakes. Having made certain that Winthrope was Rtlll asleep, Bhe set off boldly down the cleft. At the first turn she came upon Blake'* thorn barricade. It stretched across the narrowest part of the cleft in an Impenetrable wall, 12 feet high. Only in the center was a gap. which could have been filled by Blake in less than two hows' work. The girl's eyes brightened. She herself could gather the thorn-brush and fill the gap before night. They no longer need fear the jackals or even the larger beasts of prey. None the less, they must have fire. Spurred on by the thought, she was about to spring through the barricade when she heard the tread of feet on the path beyond. She crouched down, and' peered through; the tangle of hruah in the edge of the gap. Less than ten paces away Blake was ploddin? heavily up the trail. She stepped out before him. "You—you! Are you alive?" she gasped. '"Live? You bet your boots!" came back, the grim response. "You bet Fas'^1 ve—though t had to go Jonah one better to do it. The whale heaved him up; I heaved up the whale—and it took about a barrel of sea-water to do it" "8ea-water?" "Sure . . . I tumbled over twice on the way. But I made the beach. Lord! how I pumped in the briny deep! Guess I won't go into detailshut if you think you know anything about seasickness— Whew! Lucky for yours truly, the tide was just starting out, and the wind off shore. I'd fallen in the water, and the Jonah business laid me out cold. DfBn't know anything until the tide came up again and sons** me." "1 am very glad you're not dead. But how you must have suffered!

I was so ill and worn'out, and I've paid (or it twice over, really I have. Didn't those awful beasts attack you?" "Beasts? Hbw's that1:' he demanded. "Oh, hut you must have heard them! The horrid th!n«s tried to kill us!" she cried, and she poured out a half Incoherent account of all that had happened since he left , Blake listened, intently,, his jaw throat out, his eyes glowing upon her with' a look which she had never before seen In any man's eyes. But bis first comment had nothing to do with her conduct. "How's that?—sorry Win got rousted out of his nice little *"snooze- Why, don't you know, we'd been all alone in our glory by to-night if it hadn't been for those brutes. He was in the stupor, and that would have been the end of him if the beasts hadn't Btirred him up so lively. I've heard of such a thing before, but I always thought It was a fake. Here you are sweating, too." "I feel much better than yesterday. I did not tell you, but I have felt ill for nearly a week." "Frald to tell, eh?—and you were so scared over the beasts— Scared! By Jiminy, you've got grit, little woman I, There's two kinds of scaredness. You've got the Stonewall Jackson kind. 1 ek "I Don't Believe Win Was Built forth* Tropics, If anybody asks you, just refer them to Tommy Blake." "Thank you. Mr. Blake. But should we not hasten back nuw to prepare something for Mr. Winthrope?" "Ditto for yours truly. I'm like that sepulchre you read about—white outside, and within nothing but bare bones and emptiness." CHAPTER XV. With Bow and Club. HE tire was soon re-lit, and a rot of meat set on to stew. It had ample time to simmer. Winthrope was wrapped in a life-giving sleep, out of whtch he did not awaken until evening, while Blake, unable to wait for the pot to boil, and nauseated by the fishy odor of the dried seafowl, hunted out the jerked leopard meat, and having devoured enough to satisfy a native, fell asleep under a bush. The sun was half down the sky when he sat up and looked around, wide awake the moment he opened bis eyes. Miss Leslie was quietly placing an armful of sticks on the fuel heap beside the baobab. "Hello, Miss Jenny! Hard at It, 1 see," h*. called cheerfully. "Hkiah!" she cautioned, "ilr. Winthrope is still asleep." "Good thing for him. He'll need all of that he can get." 'Then you think—" "Well, between you and me, I don't heUeve Win was built for the tropics, this fever of his. coming on so soon, wouldn't have hit nine men in ten half so hard. He's bound to have another spell in a month or two, and—" "But cannot we possibly get away from here before then? Is there no way? Surely, you are so resourceflrt—" "Nothing doing. Miss Jenny! Give me tools, and I'd engage to turn -out a seagoing boat. But as it in, the only thing I could do would be to tlroburn a log. That wonld take twot>r three months, and is the end we'd have a -***- es*of the**:. Hfw about half a second fa* *ona of these tropic squalls." "Do not the natives sail in canoes?" "Maybe they d>^and they, make are by rubbing sticks We don't" "But what caa we * » # ' "Take oar medicine, and wait for ft ship to show up." "But we have no medicine." "Have aej— 8ay, Miss Jenny, you reaW ought to have stayed home from, boarding-school and England long enough to leafn your own language. I meant, we've got to take what's coming to us, without laying down, or grouching. Both are the worst things out for malaria." "You mean that we must resign ourselves t<? this Intolerable situation— that we must calmly sit here and wait until the fever—" "No; 111 take care we don't sit around very mueh. We'll go on the hike, soon as Win can wobble. Which reminds me, I've got a little bike on hand now. I'm going to close up that barricade before dark. Me for a quiet night!" • Without waiting fcr a reply, he took his weapons, and swung briskly away down the cleft. He returned a few minutes before sunset, with what appeared to be a large fur bag upon his back. Miss Leslie was pouring a bowl of broth from the stew-pot and did not notice him until he sang out to her: "Hey, Miss Jenny, spill over that stuff! No more of that in ours!" "It's for Mr. Winthrope. He has just awakened," s t e replied, still intent on her pouring. "And you'd kill him with that slop! Heave it over. He's going to have beef juice." "Oh! what's that on your back? You've killed an antelope!" "Sure! Bushbuck, I guess they call him. Sneaked up when he was drinking, and stuck an arrow Into his side. He jumped off a little way, and turned to see whajt'd bit him. I hauled off and put the second arrow right through his eye, into his brain, r Neatest thing yon «ver saw." "You surely are becoming a splendid archer!" "Yes; Jim dandy! I could do it again about once in 1C.000 shots. All the same, I've raked In thl3 peacherino. Trot out your grill and we'll have something fit to eat." "You spoke of beef juice." "I've a dozen steaks ready to broil. Slap 'em on the fire, and I'll squeeze out enough Juice with my fist to do Win for to-night." He made good his assertion, using several of the steaks, which, having lost less than half their Juices in the process, were eaten with great relish by Miss Leslie and himself. Winthrope, after drinking the stimulating beef juice and a quantity of hot water, turned over and fell asleep again while Blake was dressing his wounds. None of these was serious of itself; but Blake knew the danger of infection in the tropics, and carefully washed out the gashes before applying the tallow salve which Miss Leslie had tried out from the antelope fat. The dressing was completed by torchlight. Blake then rolled the sleeper into a comfortable position, took the torch from Miss Leslie, and left the cave, pausing at the entrance to mutter a gruff good-night. The girl murmured a response, but watched him anxiously as he passed out. A step beyond the entrance he paused and turned again. In the red glare of the torch, his face took^on an expression that filled her with fright. Shrouded by the gloom of the hollow. she drew back to her bed, and without turning her eyes away from him, groped forgone of her bamboo stakes. But before she could arm herself. she saw Blake stoop over and grasp with his free hand <be ma?s of interwoven bamboos. He straightened himself, and the framework swung lightly up and over, until it stood on end across the cave entrance. The girl stole around and peered out at him. He had spread open the antelope skin, and was beginning to slice the meat for drying. Though his forehead was furrowed, his expression was by no means sinister. Relieved at the thought that the light must have deceived her, she returned to her bed and was soon sleeping as soundly as Winthrope. Blake strung the greater part of the meat on the drying racks, built a smudge fire beneath, and stretched the antelope skin on a frame. This done, he took his club and a small piece of bloody meat and walked stealthily down the cleft to the barricade. Quiet as was his approach, it was met by a warning yelp on the farther side of the thorny wall, anH .he could hear the scurry of fleeing aclmals. He kept on until the oarricade loomed up before him in the starlight. From cliff to cliff the wall now stretched across ti..-» gorge without hole or gap. Bu" JMake grasped the trunk of a yountf .^te-palm which projected from *he barricade near the bottom, and pushed it out. The displacement of the spiky fronds disclosed the low passage which he had made in the center if the barricade. He placed the piece of meat on one aide, two or three fee' from the hole, and squatted down across from it, with his club bal anced on his shoulder.

At last stealthy footatept sounded on the outer side of the tfcor* wait aadaa antml hega* to, ere** through the *aD, snifing for the halt Blake waited with the lmmowiity oi aa Eskimo. The delay waa brief. With a boldness for which Blake had not been prepared, the beast leaped.through and aeUed the meat Even in the dim ^tght, Blake could see that he bad lured an animal larger than any jackal. But thia only served to lend greater force to hla blow. As he struck, he leaped to his feet. The brute fell as though struck by lightning and lay stilt Blake prodded the inert form warily; then knelt and passed his hands over it. The heaat had whirled about juat in time to meet the descending club, and the blow had crushed In tits sku}l. Chuckling at the success of his ruse, he drew the palm back into the opening, and swung his prise over his shoulder. When he came to the Are, a glance showed him that he had killed a full-grown spotted hyena. In the morning, when Ml?s Leslie appeared, there were two hides stretched on bamboo frames, and the air was dark with vultures streaming down into the cleft near the barricade. Blake was sleeping the sleep of the just, and did not waken until she had built the fire and begun to broil the steaks which he had saxed. Again they had a feast of the fresh antelope meat. But with repletion came more of fastidiousness, and Blake agreed with Miss Leslie when she remarked that salt - would have added to the flavor. He set off presently, and Bpent half a day an the talus of the headland, gathering salt from the rock crannies'.' For the next three days he left the cleft only to gather eggs. The greater part of his time was spent in tan ning the hyena and antelope skins. Meantime Miss Leslie continued to nurse Winthrope and to gather firewood. Under Blake's directions, she also purified the salt by dissolving it in a pot of water, and allowing the dirt to settle, when the clarified solution was poured off and evaporated over the fire in one of the earthenware pans. At first Winthrope had been too weak to sit up. But treated to a liberal diet of antelope broth, raw eggs, hot water, and cocoanut milk, he gained strength faster than Blake had expected. On the fourth day Blake set him to work on the final rubbing of the new skins; on the fifth, he ordered him to go for eggs. Much to Miss Leslie's surprise, Winthrope started off without a word of protest. All his peevish Irritability had gone with the fever, and the girl was gratified to see the quiet manner in which he set about a task which seemed an imposition upon his half-regained strength. But the very motive which, seemingly, prevented him from protesting, impelled her to speak for him. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Theater Curtain Stuck. The modern iron theater curtain, which is really a metallic wall by which a theater auditorium may be effectually separated from the stage in case of accident by fire, must be properly constructed, says Le Temps, if its benefits are to be realised. A descent at an unexpected moment would result in the IOBS of as many heads as might be in its way, and a failure to move it at all might also cause trouble. This latter feature was experienced at the seventy-first performance of "Le Roi" at the Varieties. The house was well filled, 8,000 francs having been taken in at the box office when it was time to begin the performance, but the metal curtain could not be raised. One of the big counterweights had been loosened and crashed to the stage. Repairs could not be made and the audience filed out, receiving the price of tickets back at the door. Thoughts on the American Woman. We Americana are not yet quite able to distinguish a type, either of man or woman, that has developed out of our very complex ethnographic condition. We think, now and then, that we can see certain qualities or characteristics so grouped in an individual as to make us say for the moment that there is an "American." The American woman is, perhaps even a little more undeveloped, to our thinking, than is the American man. We admire or tremble before women of a certain air or quality ; but this very mien and quality of her do not seem permanent, fixed; and the woman we class aa "American" today may be altogether different from the imperious creature we crowned yesterday. Perhaps it is with regard to the woman as it is with respect to the past. It takes the * tone ef distance, space, to bring out.the glory and the distinction—1» orb her.-^Columbia (S. C.) State.

The Metropolitan Life recently applied for permission to erect a sanatorium for its policy holders and employes afflicted with tuberculosis, but the application was refused on grounds of Illegality by New York State Superintendent of Insurance Hotchklss. The company is, however, conducting an active educational campaign by distributing 3,500,000 pamphlets among its policy holders. The Provident Savings Life Assurance society has also established a health bureau. where its policy holders may receive free medical advice. Several fraternal orders, notably the Modern Woodmen, Knights of Pythias, Royal League, Royal Arcanum and Workmen's Circle, have already established or are contemplating the erection of sanatoria for their tuberculous members.

IT WORK8 The Laborer Eats Foyd That Would Wreck an Office Man. Men who are actively engaged at hard work can sometimes eat food that would wreck a man who ia more closely confined. This is Illustrated in the following story: "I was for 12 years clerk in a store working actively and drank coffee all the time without much trouble until after I entered the telegraph service. "There I got very little exercise and drinking strong coffee, my nerves were unsteady and my stomach got weak and I was soon a very sick man. I quit meat and tobacco and in fact I stopped eating everything which I thought might affect me except coffee, but still my condition grew worse, and I was all but a wreck. "I finally quit coffee and commenced to use Poatum a few years ago, and I am speaking the truth when I say, my condition commenced to improve immediately and today I am well and can eat anything I want without any bad effects, all due to shifting from coffee to Postum.

Roy Knabenahue, who la kaown all oTar the continent for his daring wot* abort the clouds, and Unooln Beaofeey, aaothar equally famous aviator, who aiada successful flights at the Michigan State Fair last fall. Thai raoa was brought about in a rather straaae manner. Mr. Beachey happened to bo lax tfee otty early this weak and la a ooavos> twttoa with General Superintendent Doherty the latter casually said: "Beachey, would you race Roy benjaue if the Michigan State Fair offered a purse of $6,000, $4,000 to go to the winner and $L00e to the loeerr "Make the of er and see," responded Beaehoy. "All right, we'll da it," said Mr. Doherty. "You cant challenge Knabenshue too quickly for me," replied Baachey. Mr. Doherty Immediately wired Knabenshue at Toledo, and the latter responded ao quickly that even Mr. Doherty was surprise*!. "Tell Beachey I will race him at the Michigan % State Pair or around the world, if ha wants to," Knabenshue responded. The latter was then called to Detroit, and after discussing ine preiaaiaarieathe contract was signed for the moat exciting race that has ever been held In the United Statee. Other airship races have baas planned, but none like that arranged for the Michigan State Fair. Two years ago a race against time was held in St. Louis, but the aviators did not start at the same moment. The oonteat between Mr. Knabenshue and Mr. Beachey will be' the real thing. The aviators must start side by side from a given point and rush to the eastward, passing over the grandstand to a large tree two miles away, and on the top of which will be erected a large flag. After circling this tree the ships will return, sailing to the westward until (ha grandstand is reached. It Is agreed that seven heats shall be run, beginning on the afternoon of Sept. 4 and each ofternoon thereafter until Sept. 10. The aviator who wins foir of these heats will be awarded $4,001 while the loser will be given SLOOO. It required considerable tact on the part of Mr. Doherty to arrange details satisfactory to both parties. Mr. Knabenshue at first wanted to use the big ship ha sailed so successfully last winter In California. Mr. Beachey objected, because* his ship Is not of the tame dimensions. Mr. Knabenshue finally declared that he would build a new ship similar to that owned by Beachey. That settled all difficulty and the contract was signed for the most exciting race ever held in the United States. It was stipulated in the agreement with these two aviators that they shall give exhibition flights every forenoon during their races, beginning on Sent. 4.

Green of the implement and machinery department of the Michigan State Fair, says he has nearly 75 per cent more contracts signed at the present time with manufacturers who are going to exhibit at the Michigan State Fair than were registered a j-ear ago> in the closing week of August. Never in the history of the fair have so many manufacturing firms sought to display their products, he says. "How do I account for It, do you Simply this. The Wolverine state has been blessed with bumper crops and these manufacturers realize that farmers are going to spend their money for improvements. Implements that will be displayed are all of the latest design in labor saving devices and the tiller of the soU needs them.

A great many people who have trifled with Indigestion, have been sorry for it—when nervous or Chronic dyspepsia resulted, and they have not been able to cure it- Use Kodol and prevent having Dyspepsia, Everyone Is subject to Indigestion. Stoiv.n^h derangement follows stomach abuse, juu: as naturally and just aw surely as a sound and he^ ] y 'oinach results upon the ta:.::.:,- of Kodol. When you experience sourness of stomach, belching of gas and nauseating fluid, bloated sensation, gnawing pain in the pit of the stomach, heart .burn (so-called), diarrhoea, headaches, dullness or chronic tired feeling—yon need Kodol. And then the quicker yon take Kodol—the better. Bat what you want, let Kodol digest It Ordinary pepsin "dyspepsia tablets," physics, etc., are not likely to be of much benefit to you, la a partial dices tor— and physics are not digesters at all. Kodol is a perfect digester. If you could see Kodol digesting every particle of food, of nil kinds, in the glass test-tubes in our laboratories, you would know this just as well as we do. Nature and Kodol will always cure a sick stomach—but in order to be cured, the stomach must rest. That re whmt Kddol does—rests the stomach, while the stomach gets well.

Hie only respectable family In the place was. that of George Joseey who kept s geueral store, and aa be was the only man who nevei sold, anything on trust all the money gradually found its way into his coffers. It was like washing gold. The ifyt was constantly shaken up among the citjsensi the metal sinking to the bottom of Jones' ;mn. Every one knew that Jones was gathering a -. snug sum and that h« wished to take it and his children to a respectable place. Every one was waiting for him to make the attempt, relying on the road agents when he did so to relieve him of the funds while on the route and start them again in circulation. Furthermore, the road agents were waiting to carry out this praiseworthy object. One day a red flag a peaked at Jones' store, and it was nnouueed that he would sell the remnant of his stock at auction. He sold on sixty days' credit, letting it be knowu that when tho notes fell due and were collected he proposed to leave Cinnamon with his family and his fortune. There was not a thousand dollars' worth of goods left, and these Jones sold to anybody who wanted anything on his credit plan. Everybody wanted goods so easily obtainable, and Jones fn a few hours exchanged the stuff for notes. While Jones was thus giving credit for money credit was due Mrs. Jones for being a very shrewd woman. A week before the falling true of the notes she issued invitations for a "suarry," to which every one in town Including gamblers and road agents. was Invited, to celebrate the departure of the Jones family on the day after the said notes fell due.- Her husband, generous man, made it known that if any of the debtors found It Inconvenient to pay up at maturity the matter would be left open for a reasonable time. These two propositions enhanced the popularity of the Jones family, and the cutthroats got their horses and their guns ready to return the family fortune to circulation. I had clerked for Jones and was ready to do anything in the world for him, but he didn't trust me till the last minute, though he told me to be ready on short hotlee to go somewhere with him. 1 way nqt included in Mr.-. Jones' lnv.itations for her "suarry," which surprised me. I had a room opposite the Jones house, and the night the party came off I watched the throng go in add knew by the gradually increasing sounds coming from within that the guests were getting cheerful. Ry 11 o'clock most of them were drunk, the worst element being laid out on the floor where they had sunk in their exuberance of spirits. 1 could see through the windows Jones opening champagne, his wife serving eatables and the children carrying the luxuries to the guests. Then I saw Jones himself, drunk as a lord, pledging his guests, while his wife took up the corkscrew, which he was no longer able to wield. I had been told to remain In my room ready for orders, and at midnight I saw Jones emerge from his house and come across the street, and, walking straight as an infantry sergeant, he headed for me. When ho came under my window he called to me softly. 1 went down, and, taking me through the back door and the yard, he stopped before a two horse team standing on \ the street beyond. Jones told me to get In and take the reins. I did so, and as we" drove off he strapped a brace of pistols around his waist and laid two more at my feet at the bottom of the wagon. On the outskirts of the town w e stopped for a minute at a house while Jones lifted into the buggy a box containing $80 000 in gold. We had the best team of horses in that region, and they did good service. Of course wo didn't 'know whether^ we had been betrayed by some one who had got wiucl of the trick, though Jones had taken no one into his confidence. Anyway every now and then we pulled In and listened for footfalls. Considering what he had at stake. Jonas was pretty cool. On the start I drove pretty fast, but Jones coucluded that we had better save the horses as much as possible, and I soon slowed down. We made ; thirty miles without stopping except | for water and another ten before giving: the horses a feed. Then we breakfasted ourselves and gave the team n two hours' rest. And so we went ou by easier and easier stages till we reached the railroad.

Uppincott Co;) Harold Carrlngton Hopkins, Jr., Bat on the front at«j» of his father's hotise and) darkly brooded over the peculiar hardnesB of his fate. It was shortly after nine o'clock of a particularly promising. Saturday morning, but already years of fruitless inertia seemed to have passed since the blasting hour of breakfast, when the flat had gone forth which had turned the day into a thing of empty torture. The quiet, sunny avenue was deserted, but from a neighboring vacant lot came the mighty yells of his fellows, wallowing luxuriously in the biggest football game of the season; while he, the captain of their dauntlesB Eleven—for you called it an Eleven, just the same, if it did have only eight in it-—was condemned to sit here apart or descend to the alternative of playing with his sister in the back yard. He sank deeper into the rolling collar of his sweater at the mere thought. Play with his sister—the ignominy of it! Even now shrill feminine laughter floated to him around t h a corner of the house, where she and two or three feeble females who endured her society were having a silly game of mumbly-peg. He scowled contemptuously. The idea of playing a game of mumbly-peg. Of course in mumbly-peg time, a fellow might play a bit, perhaps—but in football time! . . . No! he would sit here and suffer alone. He leaned limply forward, sunk in gloomy reflections, one hand supporting his -chin, while, the other absently sought and encouraged a raveled place which had started in his stocking. His melancholy eye followed the long line of white as it crept slowly down his leg . . . Things had begun so singularly well for him, too, that crisp October morning. Upon rising he had not only skillfully evaded the customary absurd wetting of his face, but had with deftness inserted upon his person a pair of his father's cast-off suspenders, a forbidden and hitherto unachieved luxuiy. He felt of thorn now where, beneath his outer garment, they girt him strongly and helped him to bear his trouble like a man. It had been a proud moment indeed when he had been chosen captain. To be sure, this was an honor bestowed not entirely because of his prowess, but because he was the only one who possessed a nose-guard—an obsolete one which Uncle Ted had given him, .ind which transformed him into a being of dread appearance and vast imlortance— but it was an honor, nevertheless, and one scarcely less envied than the nose-guard itself. And now he was not to play any more, because—forsooth!—his mother thought it was dangerous! He fumed at the recollection. "I know the little boys do not mean to be rough, darling,- she had said, "but you do play so recklessly, and mother worries so." Aw, did she think they were babies? Wasn't, he eight, already, and only 11 months before he would be nine. 'Fraid he'd get hurt! Aw, shucks! He had pleaded piteously, for the boys were waiting impatiently at the terrace, and she had wavered a little, while lie hung poised for flight. Then it was that she had done the most dastardly tiling a mother ever thought upon to do. She had leaned down, laid her hand upon his tousled head until his face was lifted up to hers, and said, gently: "You may, dear, but mother wishes you wouldn't." Of all phases calculated to drive a boy into speechless, grinding rage, this was the one. He—he just almost hated her for it. He had gone forth from her presence in mute, defeated fury. A flat, emphatic "No" was bad enough, to be sure; but at least there was the palliating satisfaction of loud-voiced protest. The shouts from the field were growing more strident. The game was indeed on, and he was missing it! Now the* shrieks were loud and rent the air-musically; anon they became sub dued and smothered, and he clutched t h e steps spasmodically at thought of the tangled pile of arms and legs and squfrming. bodies beneath which he, too;. wou|d now rapturously be buried, were he only there. Why not go, anyway'? "You may, dear," . . . He started to his feet and gave one leap to the frojpt of the steps. 'S&ut mother wishes you wouldn't." . ^ ) . He fiat down again, hard. The helpless rage rose fierce and choking within hini< "1 do! I hate her!" he said, aloud. He 'sat very still as the words died on the air. Some way they sounded to settle down upon him and make him feel queer—aa if he were all alone in the world. He had never thought very much about his mother before. She—she had juat always been there, and . ... But now that he hated her she loomed before him quite as if she were another person. She would know, of course. She ahvays did know things, no matter how hard be tried to keep them front her. He strolled unseemly about the yard. Perhaps, after all, it would be just as well to go and show those girls how to play a real game of mumbly- peg. As he passed under the library windows, open to let in the warm autumn sunshine, he heard mother's voice at the telephone. It sounded low and distressed, and she gave a little cry as if something had hurt her. What if she knew already and was telephoning father about it. A boy who hated his mo'.her!—it seemed to brand him as something blackly criminal. If he only hadn't satd it out loud! It might have been retrievable then . . . The girls seemed to have no need of him, and he wandered heavily about the garden, the load of hatred which he had so lightly cast upon the air dragging leaden at his heels. Queer how his hatred of mother had grown so much bigger thr.n the thing he hated her for. When he was called in to luncheon, he crept into the house the back way to avoid her; and—simply for the purpose of postponing the moment for confronting her, of course—he made a rather elaborate toilet, copiously wetting and soaping his face and hands, and wiping the dirt off thoroughly on the towel. When he went to the table he stu diously avoided mother's face for awhile, stealing a glance at it finally over his glass of milk. Then he set the glass down precip.rately, for lie saw that his worst fears were real ized—she knew! She was very pale, sad and silent, and her eyes were heavy with crying. She was apparent ly unconscious of his presence, not seeming to see him even when she looked at him, and speaking only me chanicallyj He tried to eat, but even the apple puffs which were the delight of his heart swelled in his throat and refused to go down. After luncheon things grew steadilyworse. He idled about a few minutes, but mother Ignored him. Then i t was that he went up to his room, and, peeling off his sweater, slowly re moved the suspenders. The tilings were too heavy, anyway, and stuck into him; and, besides, he didn't care for that blue and white stripe in them. When he grew up he was going to wear bright red ones always. Mother was very fond of red. Perhaps by that time he wouldn't hate her any more, and some time in those years to come mother would smile at him again, and blow kisses to him as he started to school . . . The marbles were playing a regular game down his cheeks now. They fell o n : t h e big. red "W" and chased each other down to the roll in the bottom of his sweater; but he had lost all interest in them, as he had in every thing else in the world. He was so tired of hating mother! How could he ever go through the long, heavy years? Suddenly a brilliant, an illuminating thought struck him. Suppose he didn't have to wait yearB to stop! Suppose he didn't hate her any longer at. all! Just because he had said he did, he didn't have to . . . He took the stairs two at a time, his heavy shoes crashing eagerly, forgetfully, on the polished steps. Mother was just turning away from the telephone again, but—oh, wonderful woman!—she knew already that his hatred was a thing of the flasf; for, though the tears were still hanging upon her lashes, she was smiling through them and holding out her arms to him! He threw himself at. her blindly. "Oh, mother, I don't, I don't, I don't!" he sobbed. His mother looked dcrt*n at him in amazement; then, sitting down in what she called her "mothering chair," she drew him upon her shoulder. "Don't what, dear?" she asked, tenderly. "What is the matter with my little boy? Don't what?" "Hate you!" he gulped, wildly. "Hate mother?" she repeated, soft ly. "Why, of course* you don't. Did you think r t h o j i g h t you did?" "Bu—but you did*'t untie at me, or look at me, and—and you cried. . . ." He clung to her, heaving. "My poor baby!" Mother laughed "Mether has been very anxious a n * «ery tench' tfttrt>ied*^!! ^ay, t dear. Uncle Ted w i t hurt In,a footbath game this morning, and, for hour* he—he didn't w^X& up At ft& „ But tt0w father has tetepnojuggUgus tna£ be 1B all right, and is going i # _hg well and strong again. And wothen T(i»heB— oh, she wishes so much that W was ue-ver, never going to play again!." "I'm not, mother—not never, never!" cried Harold Carrlngton Hopkini, Jr., valiantly, So they rocked and talked and loved together, and presently he grew belatedly hungry, with the blessed relief of not hatiug mother. He did not tell her that all the long morning he had thought he did hate her, nor how wretchedly he had suffered—but, as usual, mother knew! KILUN6: OF COWS —•—*•*» They Lead the Simple Life. At the mouth uf a small river coming in from the east we came upon a tribe of aborigines that proved very interesting. They wore a finer set of fellows than we hud met before and of a more warlike bearing. The women had their faces and ^bodies gaudily painted and two or three were very pretty. This tribe had canoes built of tin? trunks of large palms, hollowed out into light craft as shaky as racing sculls. The whole tribe had just arrived from up the river, where they had had a battle with another outflt, and were evidently defeated, as they were all suffering from spear and arrow wounds and were short of women and children. Some of the women also were wounded. They always fight for women; their object being to add to their chief treasure, the "Chinanis," as they call them! and it is probable that many of the women and children were killed. The captured women seem willing to go with the conquerors, who sometimes have two or three wives. We saw no old people, the exposures of a wild life and the prevalence of malignant malarial fevers which they are unable to combat probably explain their absence. We could discover no trace of religion among them, nor the slightest familiarity with civilized life.—From "River Adventuring in Peru,' by W. T. Burres, in the Outing Magazine.

It is a curious aftermath of the great war between Russia and Japan and of the vr-.i't program of ambitious aggression which culminated in the war that the Japanese government has decided to convert the Russian barracks at Port Arthur into a high industrial .school (koka gakudo).

San Antonio, Teaf.—An outbreak of voodooism is responsible^for the mys terious killing of many ^flne COWB In the vicinity of this city. Many own ers of cattle living In the suburbs hBve looked in vain for their sjjlb purveyors In the morning. The gentle friend of the family was found to be missing and the instituted search usually disclosed her body in the chapparal. G. A. Davia of this city was one of the first to miss his valuable Jersey in this manner and since then others have sustained aimi lar losses. The odd feature of the case was that nothing but the hide and the heart of the animal were missing. At first it was thought that the animals had (been killed for their skinB, but a close watch kept over the dealers in hides has Bhown that so far none of the hides has been disposed of. Sheriff Lindsey and his deputies have been working day and night to get a clew that might lead to a complete solution of the myBtery, but so far they have not been successful. The offer of a substantial reward has now been called to their aid. Though the Mexican population of San Antonio is a very orderly and law abiding one as a whole, there is enough of an indifferent element omong them that would not be averse to committing these depredations if spurred on by wliat they would consider a religious motive. As is well known, the Indian strain is very prominent in the lower class Mexic a n * As a matter of fact, In a large percentage of them the Spanish or other Aryan blood is a negligible quantity.

Only Heart and Hide Taken. and be liable to periodical outbreaks is therefore not to be wondered at. Indian voodooism. as practiced after the fall of the Aztec empire, is really nothing more than a continuation of the old Aztec religion, the principal feature of which waa human sacrifice. The victims of the old Aztec priests suffered death by having their hearts torn out of their bodies by main force. After the Spanish had succeeded in stamping out thiR barbarous practice the Indian tribes, still adhering to the faith of their fathers, though nominally Christian, took to sacrificing animals in the same manner that human beings had formerly been sacrificed, and. like all primitive people, thought to appease their gods best by sacrificing that which was considered most cherished. In tearing out the animal's heart the object to-day is to get possession of the blood contained in It. To this fluid are ascribed a number of miraculous properties of a disease combating nature. The authorities of -this city and county are in no mood to permit as noxious a ^practice as voodooism to flourish under their very noRes. Though a number of arrests have been made, more important clews are now being followed, and further developments are anticipated as a result of the reward offered. Of all people the low-clans Mexican is the least able to withstand the lure of money. Every effort will be made to get the high priest of the cult into the clutches of the law. I :?.HfM^ZS:%pNTWr..

The first thought in painting should, of course, be durability—and durability means simply pure paint properly applied. Pure paint is pure white lead and linseed oil (with or. without tinting material). Some years ago the paint-buyer was likely to get adulterated or counterfeit white lead if he was not familiar with brands. To-day he may buy with perfect safety if he only makes sure that the Dutch Boy Painter trademark is on tho packages of white lead that he buys. This trademark was adopted by National Lead Company to distinguish the pure white lead made by them from the worthless adulterated and fake goods. It is a guarantee as valuable to the house-owner as the education of a paint expert could be. A Candid Judge. A Dover lawyer tells a story in which figures Hon. H. L. Dawes, who, it seems, in his younger days was an indifferent speaker. Shortly after his admission to the bar he had a case which was tried before a North Adams justice of the peace, and Dawes was opposed by a lawyer whose eloquence attracted a laige orrfwd. The justice was perspiring in the -crowded room and evidently last losing his Lemper. Finally he drew off his coat and, in the midst of the eloquent address, burst out: "Mr. Attorney, supposing that you take a seat and let Mr. Dawes speak. i want to thin out. this crowd."—Lippincott's.

While Us first cost, in some Instances, is higher, it is not only cheaper but very satisfactory when durability t_ considered. It is not at all a difficult matter for a n y farmer, after a little experimenting, to do his own concrete work and thus save a considerable part of the cost of construction. T h e price usually charged in this locality for making a circular tank 10 feet In diameter is | 4 0 . I have been able to build,, three rectangular tanks with vety -moderate cash outlays, writes C. C^gerYier in American Agriculturist F o r several years I have been doing my own" work on the farm and have made a storage tank 8x12 feet, 6 f e e t deep.

In foundation walls, walks, floors, etc., I used a mixture of one part Portland cement t o v s e v e n of gravel, and for tanks a mixture of one to five. When crushed rock and sand are used, mix in the same proportion, using one-half as much sand as rock. In mixing use a long box, an old wagon box will do, and fill with threefourths of a yard of gravel, leaving a space at one end. On top'of the grav el empty, evenly, three bags of portland cement. Hcgin a t ' o n e end and hoe down and mix until the whole •nass has been moved. Then reverse and hoe back to the other end of the box. Repeat until thoroughly mixed, when it will be of uniform color. When putting in a water system on the farm, it is advisable to build a storage tank in addition to the drinking tanks. Where considerable live stock Is kept, a large amount of water is required, and as there is frequently a week or more at a time when the windmill will not run, a scarcity of water will result unless provision has been made for a reserve supply. A very handy arrangement for drawing water from the storage tank Is made by placing an Inch pipe about 2 ½ feet long through the forms high enough above the ground to permit a pall or tul»to be plactnl under the outer end. The Inner end should be an Inch higher than the outer and project into the tank about IS inches. Winter Radishes. Winter radishes may be sown now.

ABOUT THE HORSE'S HOOF iCEWUSC IN THE COUNTRY Really the Same as the Toe or Finger Nails of Human Beings and Grows Without Cracks. A horse's hoof Is really the same thing a s the toe or finger nails of human heings, or of animals having toes. The hoof grows just as a toe nail does, and more rapidly on unshod horses than on horses wearing shoes. Its growth is much faster on horses that are well groomed and well fed, upon an average of a third of an inch a month. T h e hind hoofs grow faster than the fore hoofs. The toe of the hoof being the longest part, it takes longer for it t o grow down there than at the heel. T h e new hoof grows without any cracks or defects in the whole, gradually working down to where it can be cut off, just as with human finger nails.

In a properly constructed Icehouse and when the i c e i s properly packed a n d cared for n o w a s t e should take place from the Inside of the pile of ice. T h e melting from the sides, bottom and top is caused by insufficient insulation. T o insulate to such an extent that "o meltage would take place would be Cross Section of Icehouse, impracticable, but with a thorough understanding of t h e construction of an icehouse a minimum amount of melt age can be obtained. T h e w a s t e from the bottom is generaly considered to be the greatest. T h e amount of ice melted in the bottom of the Icehouse varies from one to six feet during the year, depending upon the construe tion of t h e floor. If t h e icehouse le provided with an air tight floor, with the i c e laid on at least 18 inches oi dry sawduBt, the bottom w a s t e rarely e x c e e d s 12 inches during the year. On the other hand, if the ice 1B piled in the Icehouse on t h e bare ground without any insulation under it or any provision made for drainage the melt age frequently is six feet. T h e sld« and top meltage is not so great, but it frequently ranges from o n e to three feet, depending upon the Insulation. The manner of insulation is shown in the cut of cross section.
