It isw finally determined that the apportionment of primary school money will he at the rate of $12 per capita.

Many grape vineyards had not been picked, the owners holding on for a higher price. The loss v/lll be Heavy. The ground is still covered with snow to a depth of several inches. The first frost last year was on Octch.^ r ''S The "oldest inhabitant of this region," says a hudington dispatch, stands aghast at the spectacle of eight inches of snow on the ground on October 10. The trees still have green levre.s and with their white burden kreserable growths of evergreens in winter. Sleigh hells are jingling merrily on the streets, and to all appearances winter has really begun. There is great loss to fruit growers around about FehviUe by the freeze. The mercury is down to 14 degrees. Apples on trees are frozen nearly solid, and only fit for cider. Less than onethird of the crop had been picked. Drapes and late peaches are '-frozen and a total loss. The heaviest frost ever known at this season of the year occurred Wednesday night. Branch county's fine apple crop is practically ruined, nearly all the apples were frozen on the trees, few having been picked. Republic reports a fierce snow storm raging for two days.

His throat was black where he had been choked and hi.^ skull was crushed evidently by blows- delivered while he was being choked. High Wolf Bounty. Wolves are so plentiful in the neighborhood of the Ives lake farm of J. M. Longyear, in the upper peninsula, that the owner offers to pay an additional reward of $25 for any wolf shot or kiUed on the place or within a radius of 12 miles of it. With the states and county bounty and the value of the hide, a wolf killed within the limit of the district concerned will now net; about $60. Sent Away by Grandma. A prettily, but thinly dressed little girl, giving her name as Gertrude Aldrich, wits found shivering from the cold and wandering along the streets in Kalamazoo at a late hour and taken to the police station. Gertrude had been put off a train by the conductor, she said,/because she could not pay her fare. She was bound for Decatur, Ind.. but the police do not know where she came from. This is the storv the little maid told the polite: "Grandma said shejcouldn't keep me any longer, because she had too many to look after, so she put me on a train and told the conductor to put me off at Decatur, and I would meet Cora Smith there. Papa is dead and mamma is up north." Letters found on Gertrude's person confirmed part of the story. She was taken in c h a r g e by County Agent Merroll and spent the night in the Y. W. C\ A. rooms.

Now it is proposed to locate here a bureau, headed and managed by men of unquestionable character and repute, which shall watch legislation with only the public Interest iu mind, analyze it, report on it, publish the facts about it, and employ such proper means as may he required to induce congress to legislate for the popular interest rather than for special interests. The lobby was proposed originally by Henry Beach Needhain, of this city, and has been taken up by such men as Mark Twain, Lincoln Steffens, Benjamin Ide Wheeler and William Alleu White. The people's lobby will have facilities for watching and studying legislation. Competent lawyers will examine and ascertain what the "jokers" are in legislation. Skilled observers will keep In touch with the operations of lobbying representative^ of "interests." The results of all these inquiries will be given to the public. Publicity is to be the one weapon of the organization. The managers believe it is the most, effective weapon, and potent to accomplish all the results. The lobby will give the people opportunity to be heard, if its plans prove its practicability. It isn't going to undertake anything sensational or startling. It will be a sort of watchdog of popular interests. It will not get tired when popular interest waues; it will keep on at its work even when there is not at the White House a president with the disposition to wring things from congress. This is in outline the plan of the people's lobby. The letters which have been received/following the first announcement of the plan, indicate a notable interest in the movement. Ex-Gov. G.arvan, of Rhode Island; State Senator Colby, of New Jersey; Gov. Deneen, of Illinois; Winston Churchill, of New Hampshire, are among those who sent appreciative responses to the appeal for cooperation and support. W I P I N G OUT T H E G O V E R N M E N T DEFICIT. Probably the happiest man among the department officials in Washington at this time is Assistant Secretary James B. Reynolds of the treasury. Mr. Reynolds is a Massachusetts man, and his duties as assistant secretary give him especial charge of the customs branch of the government. Under the direction of Mr. Reynolds, the customs revenues a r e collected, and the intricate details of the operations of the tariff law are directed, in order to bring the greatest possible returns and safeguard the public interest, as well as domestic industries, from the attacks of ingenious and ambitious foreign traders. Assistant Secretary Reynolds is of the opinion that his branch of the government is pretty nearly the whole thing at this time. The much abused tariff law, under the direction of the customs experts, is producing revenues sufficient to save the nation from a deficit. . Last year the treasury balance on the right side of the ledger was a few millions, and this result was achieved following a year in which the balance on the wrong side of the ledger was upward of $30,000,000. Starting with the present fiscal vear, a deficit of $6,000,000 or $7,000,000 showed up within a month as a result of an extraordinary draft to pay congressional appropriations. •. .^hla; deficit has already been practically wiped out and the indications are thsjt Uncle S a w will have a snug balance at the end of the present fiscal, year. It is the customs business that Is producing these desirable results. The duties upon imported commodities have brought into* the. treasury within a little more than two months $10,000,000 more than came in during the same period a year ago. This is the fact that causes happiness to Assistant Secretary Reynolds. He is able to show that while other receipts of the government have increased only two or three million dollars, a handsome showing is made by the customs branch under his management. . _ DEPARTURES.

When Miss Carteret let herself out of the rear door, Jastrow disappeared in the opposite direction, passing through the forward vestibule and dropping catlike from the step to inch his way silently over the treacherous snow-crust to a convenient spying place at the other end of the car. Unfortunately for the spying purpose, the shades were drawn behind the »wo great windows and the glass door, hut the starlight sufficed to show the watcher a shadowy Miss Virginia standing motionless on the side which gave her an outlook down the canyon, leaning out. it might be, to anticipate "For the thing itself—nothing, less than nothing. But—but one may care a little for the man who wins or loses."- He tried to take her hand again, tried and failed. "Virginia!—is that my word of hope?" "No. Will you never see the commonplace effrontery of it, Mr.< Winton? Day after day you have come here, idling away the precious hours that meant everything to you, and now you come once again to offer me a share in what you have lost. Is that your idea of chivalry, of true manhood?" Again .the grim smile came and went. "An unprejudiced onlooker might "A bluff," he said, supplying ttre word. "If I had believed there was the slightest possibility of a fight, I should have made my men take to the woods rather than let you witness it," "You shouldn't have let me waste my sympathy," she protested, reproachfully.

"Would you have me tear a passion the upcoming of some one from the y6ay that you have made me very wel construction camp below. "* come." The. secretary, shivering in the "Mr. Winton! Is that generous?" knifelike wind slipping down from "No; perhaps it is hardly just. Bethe bald peaks, had not long to wait. By the time his eyes were fitted to the darkness he heard a man coming tip the track, the snow crunching frostily under his steady stride, Jastrow ducked under the platform and gained a view point on the other side of the car. The crunching footfalls had ceased, and a man was swinging himself up to the forward step.of the Rosemary. At the instant a voice just above the spy's head called softly: "Mr. Winton!" and the newfomer dropped back into the snow and came tramping to the rear. It was. an awkward moment for Jastrow; but he made shift to dodge again, and so to be out of the way when the engineer drew himself up and climbed the hand-rail to stand beside his s'ummoner. The secretary saw him take her hand and heard her exclamation, half indignant, wholly reproachful: "You had my note. I told you not to come!" •So you did, and yet you were expecting me," he asserted. He was still holding her hand, and she could not —or did not—withdraw it. "Was I, indeed!" There was a touch of the old-time raillery in the words, but it was gone when she •adder!: "Oh, why will you keep on coming and coming when you know so well what it means to you and your work?" "[ think you know the answer to that better than anyone," he rejoined, his voice matching hero for earnestness. "It is because I love you; because I could not stay away if "i should try. -Forgive me, dear; I did not mean to speak so soon. But you said in your note that you would be leaving Argentine immediately— that I should not see you again; so I had to come. Won't you give me a word, Virginia?—a waiting word, if it must be that?" Jastrow held his breath, hope dying within him and sullen ferocity crouching for the spring if her answer should sic it on. But when she spoke the secretary's anger cooled And be breathed again. "No; a thousand times, No," she burst out passionately; and Winton staggered as if the suddenly freed hand had dealt him a blow. "Ah, Well, It's Only One More Fool for Love." CHAPTER X. For a little time after Virginia's passionate rejection of him Winton stood abashed and confounded. Weighed in the balances of the afterthought, his sudden and unpremeditated declaration could plead little excuse in encouragement. And yet she had been exceedingly kind to him. •'I have no right to expect a better auswer," he said, .finally, when he could trust himself to speak. "But I am like other men; I should like to know why." "You can ask that?" she retorted: 'You say you have no right. What have you done to expect a better answer?" lie shrugged. "Nothing. I suppose.

" asked gapL Solomon as 1 met him at the head of t h e wharf. , "Well, I he v. She's the Submarine now. "Ye see, It was just about two months ago, when I was going from Friendship, Maine, down lo New York! Oen'ally 1 c a n y a man before the mast. Then there's Hill Clement, the cook, and me. Hut on this trip a feller that was going as hand before the mast didn't show up, so there was Jest me'n Bill. Howsomever, we got down into the sound all right. It was som'ers down New London way when t h e wind jest flatted out, and the fog come down thick. *'J see 't. warn't no use trying to do northen' that night, and men' Bill was "both of us pretty nigh tuckered out, being short-handed so. So. 1 se» t o Dill: 'You get up for'ard and let •go anchor and the Polly P. will stay right here to-night' " 'Twas about nine o'clock when I was jest trimming in the main sheet and the rattle of the anchor had jest stopped that 1 heard Bill let out a screech. It begun like one of them little screeches a woman makes when she sees a mouye, and it kinder swelled up an" bust into a howl like t h e yell of one of them newfangled tsiren whistles on a tugboat. I lightly jedged that Dill was scalrt, and then I'll confess to you that my hair kind of riz, what there is of it. for jest scraping and slumping alongside ihe old Polly was the durjidest looking ihing you ever see. "The monster was moving kind of slow and. as it went scraping along under the quarter, jest abeam of the cabin winder, the -lamj.iiight fell on its broad and shiny back, and all of a sudden I see in that black something which I knew never grew on Jonah's whale or the sea serpent either, cause 'twas a good, stout, iron ring-bolt. Naturally when I see that ring-bolt I (Copyright, by Joseph B. Bowles.)i happened. I had read "Me'n the Lieutenant Elbows." Crooked Our knew 'twara't no sea serpent, and at t h e same time I cal'lated that it was probably somethln' which had got adrift. So I jest grabbed the slarck of the main sheet and jumped over the side on to the back of the critter and 'took two half hitches through that ring. "Next thing I knew something came j swishing through the air and lit. bang, j right alongside of me. If't had er hit ! I shouldn't hev' been telling you this j story now. That's the reason we got j a new hatchet, cause Bill, thinking the j sea serpent had got the old man, grabbed the ax we'd been using for [ the last half dozen years ami let her j ,«o. I shouted to him to stop firing j and to heave in on the sheer, and then we got the thing up alongside and got ' a look at her. i "And by the Great •Jumping Jehoo-i Ictbus! it developed that we'd jest nat- j urally captured a runaway submarine j boat—one of the identical kind that the papers say is going to revolutionize the art of naval warfare. Yes, sir, there she was as'sound and jest as slick as the day she was built. We jest made her fast and waited for daylight. "It seemed a long time, but at last morning come and with it there come a breeze that lifted the fog. Fust Thing **e see, about a mile off, was one ©£ them tramp Dago steamers. She might hev' been a Norway boat, but then, they's all Dagoes anyway, or at least they're all jest about the same. Well, when the folks on that steamer nee us there was great ructions over there. We could see 'em running 'round and almost hear 'em jabbering, and then they lowered a boat. "When I see what was going on.lt xame to me in a flash jest what had in the papers about their building submarines for Rooshy, and it was evident enough that this oue was intended to be taken over iu that steamer, but the Dagoes, not being much as sailors anyway, had lost the thing. "Naturally, I jest fell right back on my rights as a free-born American citizen, I hain't been a sallorman for 40 year without knowing international and maritime law, no, sir. Not much, by the Great Jehookibus! I jest sings out to Bill: 'Bill,' sez L -you hustle down below and get me the glorious Stars and Stripes, aud \ t the same time you bring up my grandfather Green's old musket that's down there.' "1 ran down, too, and got my silk hat—oue I always carry, 'cause you never know when you're away from home when you may be required to put. on full dress, so to speak. So I claps the hat on my head and gits out onto the deck of that submarine and jest fastens the flag of this free and glorious country to a boat hook and sticks it up on the deck. Then I sets down there, holding that old musket in my hands and I wait for the boat from that steamer to get along. "When they got near enough I sec that thero was a chap in the stern who seemed! to be of a different cut from most of them Dagoes. 1 knew he was a Rooshian the minute I set eyes on him. He had the same beard that every one of 'em has, including the czar and all the rest. Of course, I stood ready with the old musket in my hands and the flag of freedom fluttering just above my Sunday hat. I was pre]>ared to repel boarders, but the boat stopped when she was in good hailing distance and the chap in the stern stood up and shouted to me in English. ""Is ze gentleman.' lie says, that 1 has ze honor to address, zv captain of ze schooner1?' "1 turns to the Rooshian and in answer to his question 1 says briefly: 'I be.' You see at that stage of the game 1 didn't propose to waste no words and say something I might be sorry for afterward. Thereupon the man m the boat begins again. " 'I have ze honor to inform ze captain,' he says, 'I have zc honor to inform ze captain (meaning me, you understand) zat ze submarine boat to which ze captain has made fast during ze night is in my charge. 1 present my compliments to ze captain, and request that he will delivaire ze submarine boat to me, its rightful possessor.' "'Well, now,' 1 said. 'I have the honor to inform you'—by Jehookibus, we can be just as polite down in Friendship, Maine, as any foreigner that ever sailed the Seven Seas—so 1 sez to him, 'I have the honor to inform you that having found the aforesaid submarine derelick on the high seas, I. Solomon B. Peabbles, of the town of Frieiexlshlp, in the grand old state of Maine, have legally taken possession of the said derelick, and anybody desiring to prove claims can do so by appearing before the proper authorities in the courts of this great and glorious country.' "And then by way of a wind-up I just, shouted at him, so that he would know that I knew what I was talking about, 'And God save the United States of America!' "Then the man in the boat spoke once more. "'Would ze,Captain Pibbles negotiate as between friends without taking ze matter into ze courts?' "Thet's where them foreign chaps j sion. has the advantage of us. They're mighty smooth spoken. Of course, he see the game from, the start. I met him half-way, but f wam't. taking no chances. So 1 sez to Bill: 'You get aboard this eratT and keep the flus a-iiying while 1 receive this gent on the Polly IV "When we'd changed places, I sez to the Rooshian: 'Step aboard,' I sez, and he warn't slow about stepping. 1 showed him into tin; cabin and we set down. He begun his little chanty the moment he got aboard, but 1 stopped him. There warn't going to be northen' irregular about them negotiations. "'Before we proceed.' I sez, 'I must respectfully remind you the? ye didn't let one of your visiting cards float down on the tide.' "It would pretty near killed you to hev' seen him then. He bowed and scraped like a dancing master. Thousand pardons,' he sez, 'but is it necessary thet I reveal ze incognitto?' '"Well,* I sez, 'you can keep that if you want to, but ,1 guess ye'd better say who ye be.' "He looked at me a minute, right in the eyes, and then he see I meant business and he give in. He kinder grinned and said he was Lieut. Razor* backski, or something similar, * ^ n d thet he had come here to get t$em submarines which was to h e taken to Rooshy in thet Dago steamer. Then h e delicately points out that it warn't no ways necessary to go to law and stir up trouble between friends. "Well, I ain't telling Jest what happened during them negotiations, but there ain't no mortgage on my place down to Friendship an' my girl Polly has got a new planner. When^ that lieutenant had gone over to the steamer and come back with a bag w&«fc chinked when you shook it, I felt ao good that I got out a leetle somettilng I had on board for fear me or Bill might be took sick. And then me'n* the lieutenant crooked our elbows, once for the president and once for the czar. And after the JR.ooshian hed gone and the submarine had been towed back to the steamer, me'n' Bill just took another to the mikado, so's there shouldn't be any Hi feeling anywhere. "Thet's why I changed the name of the Polly to Submarine, so's there'd be a sort of record of the affair. To be sure, It's a secret. Me'n' Dill, 'n' you 'n' the folks to home, 'n' the Rooshian 's all that knows it. The Rooshian don't count. Them Rooshian sailors are good ones to keep secrets after they get 'round to meet the J a p s ; couldn't tell a secret if they wanted to. "Now don't you let on about that secret," said Cap'n Solomon, but there was a twinkle in his eye when hr said it. DISFIGURED WITH EtfZEMA Brushed Scale* from Face Like Powder— Under Physicians Grew Worse —Cuticura Works Wonders. "I suffered with eczema six months. I had tried three doctors, but djUi not get a n y better. It was on ray body and on my feet so thick t h a t I could hardly put a pin on me without touching eczema. My face was covered, my eyebrows came out, and then it got in zny eye. . I then went to another doctor. He asked me what I was taking tor it, and I told him Cuticura. He said that was a very good thing, but t h a t he thought my face would be m a r k e d for life. But Cuticura did its work, and my face is now just a s clear as it ever was.

The little black and white kitten which has claimed the Central police station as its home since it wandered into the office! s' room one stormy night several months 'ago. is declared by the officers and men to be the most intelligent cut in Louisville and has won their affectum as perhaps no other cat could do. says the Louisville Courier-Journal. Puss' chief claims to the consideration and admiration of the iKilieenien lies in her pronounced aggressive qualities', which however, are only exhibited when dogs of the nondescript variety emerge from the alley at the side of the police station and attempt to force their acquaintance upon her or attempt an exploration of the subterranean passages of the city hall. When one of the unwelcome visitors j comes within puss' reach there is a j hiss and snarl, the flash of a white, j outstretched paw and a badly frightened dog slinking off down the alley. Puss loses no time in instituting hos- ( tilities against her enemies, and dogs i large and of forbidding appearance. j who formerly frequented the neighj borhood of cliy hall square, now give j that region a wide berth at night, for j it Is "between mldnfght and the dogwatch that puss keeps her vigil. When not engaged iu keeping curs away from the station house, puss generally may be found curled up and purring contentedly in the lap of one of the officers- "Old John."-the negro janitor of the station, who usually begins his daily routine, at two o'clock in the morning, has trained the kitten to awaken him at that hour each morning. This the kitten accomplishes by licking his face, and when he feels its soft, warm touch on his cheek he knows that it is time to get up and doing, for the ofliceis' and station keeper's rooms must be cleaned and put in order before the day squad comes on duty. During his night vigil. John Heinzman, the station keeper, insists that he finds the kitten excellent company when there are few calls for the patrol wagon, and there is little to claim his attention. Puss' favorite couch is on the telephone exchange board, and she- will lie there contentedly for hours when not awakened by dogs or calls on the telephone, at which her fur bristles with interest until the patrol wagon has proceeded on its mi?

Grammar. . good enough to tell me, must 'If you were l' or 'if you were inquires a correspondent, who be congratulated on avoiding the abyss of "If you was' m e ! " For the hint of doubt, the suspicion of impossibility, demands the mood subjunctive to The I'nknown, says the London Chronicle. This correspondent, is at. sea among copulative, intransitive verbs, the verbs that <3a* note action, <an<t are transitive, and the verbs that partake of the nature of both. We hope we are good enough to explain. There are certain verbs of "being and becoming," which do not demand the , objective case—do not indicate any outside action. You will see the distinction between "It and 1" and "Hit him in the eye." The confusion arises when the same verb may be used as a merely copulative and as a strong and useful compliment. Even the very word "become" has its ambiguity, and gives hit illustration of the double use. In the beginning, according to the Book of Genesis, dust became we, though in t h a t sense it would not be right to say that dust became us. Yet in the fullness of time and the whirligig of languft^/d there has came an age when—if we are" women—dust (from a powder puff) becomes u&\. "This matter of superstitions is a queer thing," said the man as he carefully avoided walking under a ladder, "for even those of us who are skeptics have at least one superstitious failing, and mine is walking under ladders. "In the country this summer I met a new one, which was firmly believed In by several farmers, and that was that a thunder storm never passed over a copper mine or copper vein. The old fellow who told me about it pointed out again and again that although black clouds might roll up and lightning flash, the storm always went around a certain spot in his farm. "Such actions on the part of a thunder storm could mean but o"ne thing, he said—that there was a copper vein there. So sure was he of it. that he was putting by a little each year to have the spot investigated to see if t h e r e was copper enough In it to work."

The •; -<HflBftll^l ^yent, of the day preceding tSb^'departtMe df Messrs. Taf t and BajL «on- was the taking over of the govern- * went by Charles B. Magoon, which was done by the issuance of a proclama- . tion declaring that he had entered upon and would discharge the functions of government us directed by President Roosevelt, by virtue of the authority of the Piatt amendment. This was precisely in line with President Roosevelt's appointment of Mr. .Magoon, which states that it was made "by virtue of the authority conferred upon me by the appendix to the constitution of Cuba and by act of congress March '2, 1901." » * Dynamited The College. Report comes from Seneca. S. C, that Harreli college, a negro institution there, was blown by dynamite about midnight Friday night. Rev. J. F. Williams, a negro, is president of the college and it is supported by northern white people. He went to Seneca from Abbeville .several years ago. and, it is said, has made himself objectionable to the white people. He advised the negroe*s not to work for the white people. A letter of warning was sent him several weeks ago advising him to leave Seneca, but he ignored it. WHAT WE OWE TO 1N8ECTS. They Are of the Greatest Benefit to Growing Flowers, Prof. Darwin said that if it had not been for insects we should never have had any more imposing or attractive flowers than those of the elm, the hop and the nettle. Lord SVebury compares the work* of the insect to that of the florist. He considers that just as the florist has by selection produced the elegant blossoms of tbe garden, so the insects, by^ selecting the largest and brightest blossoms for fertilization, have produced the gay flowers of the field. Prof. Plateau, of Ghent, has carried out a series of remarkable experiments on the ways of Insects visiting flowers. He considers that they are guided by scent rather than by colov, and in the connection he is at variance with certain British naturalists. Whatever may be the attraction in flowers to insects—as yet, it appears undefined—it is certain that the latter visit freely all blossoms alike, making no distinction between the large, bright-colored ones and the less conspicuous blossoms like those of the currants, the lime, the planetree, the net lie and the willow.

The insurrection in Santo Domingo, which was believed to have ended, has hioken.oiit afresh. The navy department received the following cablegram from Sotitlierland, the senior American naval officer at Monte Christi: "I regret to Inform you that the revolutionary leaders at the last moment refuse to stand by articles of agreement for the surrender. Revolutionary leaders have massed forces of about sioo men at a distance of 15 miles and demand the most impossible terms. The president of Santo Domingo has directed the renewal of hostilities." Currency Reform. Senator Beveridge does nor believe currency legislation in any important form is possible at the coming session of congress, it is understood the president does not aggressively press the Mibjeef in his message to congress, which he has already written but. which will not be delivered uuiil December. He does, however, mention it. "Xo comprehensible plan of currency reform is possible- at the next session of congress,'' said Senator Beveridge. "In the first place, there is not time for 'adequate discussion and consideration, and in the ne\t place, there is no popular demand for such kgish'.tion. "Reform of our currency laws must. come ultimately, but when they do come there must be careful and thorough discussion and the people-must be interested in what is being done." Silviera's Escape. Xo trace, of Manuel Silviera, who stole $t,TU)0,ti0O from' Ce hallos & Co,, last week, has been found. All South 'American ports are being watched, but. so far nothing has been heard of Silviera or the cattle-carrying steamship in which tie fted,froju Uayann a week ago last Tuesdaiy^ Many extravagant stories ar^dhcttbtftftg 4s '.to the flight of Silviera on his ship bearing the $1.- 1100,00.0 stolen treasure. Some consider thuttt.is only the act of a madman, while others ;.hint at n -gigantic conspiracy between himself atul others to wreck the Xew York honse, beneath 'which, it is asserted, a great financial scandal is smoldering.

One of the most curious contests ever before the public was conducted by many thousand persons under the offer of the Postura Cereal Co., Ltd., of Battle Creek, Mich,, for prizes of 31 boxes of gold and 300 greenbacks to those making the most words out of the letters Y-I-O-Grape-Nuts. The contest was started in February, 1906, and it was arranged to have the prizes awarded on Apr. 30, 1906. When the public announcement appeared many persons began to form the words from these letters,, sometimes the whole family being occupied evenings, a combination of amusement and education. After a while the lists began to come in to the Postum Office and before long the volume grew until'it required wagons to carry the mail. Many of the contestants were thoughtless enough to send their lists with insufficient postage and for a period it cost the Company, from twenty-five to fifty-eight and sixty dollars a day to pay the unpaid postage. Young ladies, generally those who had graduated from the high school, were employed to examine these lists and count the correct words. Webster's Dictionary was the standard and each list was very carefully corrected except those which fell below 8000 for it soon became clear that nothing below that could win. Some of the lists required the work of a young lady for a solid week on each Individual list. The work was done very carefully and accurately but the Company had no idea, at the time the offer was made, that the people would respond so generally and they were compelled to fill every available space in the offices with these young lady examiners, and notwithstanding they worked steadily, it was impossible to complete the examination until Sept.' 29. over six months alter the prizes should have been awarded. This delay caused a great many inquiries and naturally created some dissatisfaction. It has been thought best to make this report In. practically all of the newspapers in the-United States and many of the magazines in order to make clear to the people^tlie conditions of thtr coWtasrr. •*': >!S ' : Many lists contained enorhjous numbers of words, which, under" the rules, had to be eliminated ^Pegger" would count "Peggers" would nQt Sotne lists contained over 50,000 worde,1 the gfeaii' majority o f which were quit out. The largest lists were checked over two and in some cases three times to insure accuracy. The $100.00 gold prtee was-won by L. D. Reese. 1227-15th St., Denver, Colo., with 9941 correct words. The highest $10.00 gold prize.went to S. K. Fraser, Lincoln, Pa., with 9921 correct words. A complete list of the 331 winners With their home addresses will be sent to any contestant enquiring on a postal card. Be sure and give name and address clearly. This contest has cost the Co. many thousand dollars, and probably has not been a profitable advertisement, nevertheless perhaps some who had never before tried Grape-Nuts food have been interested in the contest, and from trial .jq)- the food have been shown its wonderful rebuilding powera. ' i t teaches 4n a practicable manner that Scientifically gathered food elements *an be selected from the field grain** whleh ""nature will use for re building the nerve centres and brain in a way that is unmistakable Jp users of Grape-Nuts. ^. - 'Tbere'is a«rea#on."- • i .

Headaches, dizziness and sleeplessness, first, and then dropsy. I was weak and helpless, having run down from 180 to 125 pounds. I was having terrible pain in the kidneys, and the secretions passed almost involuntarily. My left leg swelled until it was 34 inches around,', and the doctor tapped it night and morning until I could no longer stand it, and then he advised amputation. I refused, and began using Doan's Kidney Pills. The swelling subsided gradually, the urine became natural, and all my pains and aches disappeared.

As the plants which are combined with the figs in the manufacture cf Syrup of Figs are known to physicians to act most beneficially upon the system, the remedy has met with their general approval as a family laxative, a fact well worth considering in making purchases. it is because of the fact that S Y R U P O F F I G S is a remedy of known quality and excellence, and approv-:-d by physicians that has led to its use by so many millions of well informed people', who would not use any remedy of uncertain c.uaUty or inferior reputation. Every famiiy should have a bottle cf th3 genuine on hand at all Limes, to use when a laxative rernecy is required. Please to remember that the genuine Syrup of Figs is for sale in bottles of one size only, by all reputable druggists, and that full name cf the company — California Fig Syrup Co., is plainly printed on the front of every package.

The tragedy of poverty was never better illustrated than in the ex peri-, fnce of Charles Thomas, of Kalamazoo. a helplessly crippled man who suplKirts himself in a precarious manner by selling lead pencils from a wheel chair which he propels painfully about the streets. On Friday he picked up a purse containing $25 and although that nmount wa» a fortune to him he bast ened to police headquarters as quickly as he could and there met Mrs. K. Miller, a poor woman, deserted by he'1 husband and who is supporting three children by days' work. She had conu* to report the loss of the purse and she wept with joy as ;t was returned to l.pr. Thomas was so touched by the woman's emotion and her story of her own struggles that he wept in sympathy and the two left the station together. Ground Up by Car. "Yes, that's my husband's mustache and nose," said the wife of August Heiu; of Detroit, when Undertaker Crecdou opened before her eyes a cigarbox full of small portions of the man killed by a car in Michigan avenue, near the city limits, early Thursday morning. The body was literally cut to pieces, and it was with difficulty that the re-* mains were gathered together and taken to the county morgue. Hein was 44-years old and leaves a widow and six children. He had been for the Schneider company some TrtHr and lived with his famv / i l y at the brrckyard.

He was born at Hushvine, 111., was nearly 82 years of age and was president of the Hackley National bank of Muskegon and bold heavy interests in other banks, He was the head of the Munroe Manufacturing Co., of the Thayer Mill Co..

O'Brien, fire commissioner of New York city through appointment by Mayor McClellan, has had a most spectacular rise from an alleged poolroom and bucket shop gambler in Buffalo to the real ruler oL New York politics. As Mayor McClellan's right hand man he has been reaping a whirlwind of criticism for the wholesale gambling and corruption that were said to have prevailed in the metropolis while t h e ' m a y o r was in Europe. John O'Brien first appeared as a formidable rival to the old leaders last winter when Mayor McClellan gave him a banquet at Sherry's.

Taylor, his wife and daughter, ot old Brig house, England, were burled side by side, standing up in their graves. Two hundred years ago it was custom In England to keep an o coffin or chest in the pariah cluircav for common use, to carry the dead to the graveyard in. The body waa wrapped in "coarse linen, and held together with bone pins. A few years later an act was passed by parliament ordering that all bodies be wrapped in woolens Instead of linens, in_grder to build up or foster the woolen industry, which was-then^ in its infancy. The parish vicar was required to report that tne burial took place in woolen according to the a c t _ T h e Sunday Magazine. Derivation of "Spelling." There is some doubt as to the derivation of the word "spelling." It is belieVed to be from the Anglo-Saxon word "spel," meaning discourse or story, and the verb "spelllan," to declare, relate, tell, as In "spell." a charm, and "gospel." However, there may have been some confusion with "spell," a slip of wood, since such a slip was used in old-time schools to point to the letters qf a word, one after another, in spelling them out.

Calvert acquiesced eagerly, scenting possibilities. But when they were out under the frosty stars he had the good sense to walk her up and down in the healing silence and darkness lor Ave full minutes before he ventured to Hay what was in his mind. When he spoke it was earnestly and 4o the purpose, not without eloquence. He loved her; had always loved her, 'he thought. Could she not, with time and the will to try, learn to love him? —not as a cousin? She turned quickly and put both hands on his shoulders. "Oh Cousin Billy—don't!" she. faltered brokenly; and he, seeing at once that he had played the housebreaker where he would fain have been the welcome guest, took his punishment maniully. drawing her arm in his and walking her yet other turns up and down the long platform until his patience and the silence had wrought their perfect work. "Does it hurt much?" she asked, eeftly, after a long time. "You would have to change places with me to know just how much it hurts," he answered. "And yet you haven't left me quite desolate, Vir ginia. I still have something l e f t - all I've ever had, I fancy." "And that is^-" "My love for you. you know. It isn't at all contingent upon your yes or r.o; or upon possession—it never has been. I think. It has never asked much except the right to be." She was silent for a moment. Then she said: "Cousin BlUy, I do believe that you are the best mjtn that ever lived. And I am ashamed—ashamed!" "What1 for?" "If I have spoiled you, ever so little, for some truer, worthier woman." "You haven't; you mustn't taUe that view of it. I am decently in love with my work—a work that not a-few • wise men have agreed, could- best be •lonr- alone. I don't think there will be any other woman. You see, there is cnly one Virginia. Shall we go I in now?" She nodded, but when they reached ' the Rosemary the returning engine way rattling upon the open siding. Virginia drew back. t ''.I. -don't ***i&,to. meet Hpale Sowecville just now," she confessed. .."Can't we climb up to the observation platform at the other end of the car?" I* He said yes, and made the affirma- |fvv good by lifting her in his arms over the high railing. Once safely on the car. she hade him leave her. "Slip in quietly and they won't notice," she said.

The huge engine came storming up the grade on the new J me, pushing its Ihree flat-cart, which were black with clinging men. On the car nearest the locomotive, where the dazsltng beam of the headlight pricked him out for her, stood Winton, braced against the lurching! of the train over the uneven track.

And when I do succeed, I shall marry a woman who can wear the purple becomingly." "I hope you may, I'm sure," she answered, wearily. "Yet you will excuse me If I say that I don't understand how it concerns me, or why you should keep me out here in the cold to tell me about it." "Don't you? It concerns you very nearly. You are the woman, Miss Carteret." "Indeed? And if I decline the honor?" The contingency was one for whtch the * suitor seemed not entirely pre* pared. Yet he evinced a willingness to meet the hypothesis in a spirit of perfect candor.

Faveh me Instantly, while you have a leg to run with! Go!" Jastrow disappeared; and when the door closed behind him Virginia faced her irate clan-chief bravely. "He was a »j>y, and be would have been a traitor—for a consideration, Uncle Somerville, But I am little tetter. What will you do to me?" The Rajah's wrath evaporated quickly, and a shrewd smile, not unkindly, wrinkled the ruddy old face. "So it was a caae of the trappeh trapped, was it, my deah? I'm sorry— right sorry. I might have known how it would be; a youngeh man would have known. But you have done no unpahdonable mischief. Misteh Winton would have found out for himself in a few hours at furthest, and we are ready for him now." "Oh, dear!" she said. "Then he will be beaten?" "Unquestionably. Faveh me by going to bed, my deah. Your rosea "will suffeh sadly for all this excitement, I feah. Good night." C H A P T E R XI, It seemed to Virginia that she had but just fallen asleep when she was paean of joy. "But Uncle Somerville—what he dp?" "He ia with McGrath on the engine, getting bimeelf—and us—to the front in a hurry, as you perceive." "Isn't it too late to stop Mr. Winton now?" "I don't know. From what I could overhear I gathered that the ditched engine is still in the way, that they are trying to roll it over into the creek. Bless me! McGrath is getttlng terribly reckless!" this as a spiteful lurch of the car flung them both across the compartment. "Say Uncle Somerville," she amended. "Don't charge it to Mr. McGrath. Can't we go out on the platform?" "It's as much as your life is worth," he asserted, but he opened the door for her. The car was backing swiftly np the grade with the engine behind serving as a "pusher." At first the fiercely driven snow-whirl made Virginia gasp. Then the speed slackened^ and she could breathe and see. RELIGION IN THE COLLEGES. Many Things Point to an Increase in the Religious Spirit. There are many things which indicate to the experienced and sympathetic eye a steady increase in religious spirit among American college students. They are the growing interest in Bible study, one of the most pronounced tendencies in nearly all the colleges; the higher quality of music In the college chapels; the Improvement in the chapels themselves; the care taken in selecting college preachers; the building of special homes for certain religious organizations, and the increase in the number The shrilling wheels were tracking | and membership of the organizations. around a curve into a scanty widening i The tendency in most of the cot fancy. It would be tantamount driving me to extremities." "If you will tell me how I can do it 'definitely/ I shall be most happy to drive yon to extremities, or anywhere else-out of my way," she said, frigidly. "Ob, I think not," he rejoined. "You wouldn't want me to go and tell Mr. Darrah how you have betrayed him to Winton. . I had the singular good fortune to overhear your conversation— yours and W*inton*s. you knew; and if Mr. Darrah knew, he would cut you out of his will with very little compunction, don't you think? And. really, you mustn't threw yourself away on that Sentimental Tommy of an engineer, Miss Virginia. He'll never be able to give you the position you're fitted for." Since French was a dead language to Mr. Arthur Jastrow, he never knew what ft was tfeat.Mlsa Carteret named himV Bur she left him in no doubt as to her Immediate purpose; "If that be the case, we would better go and find my uncle at once," she said in her softest tone; and before he could object she had led the way ta the Rajah's working-den stateroom. Mr. Darrah was deep in ore of the cipher telegrams when ithey entered. "GO."' to rudely awakened by the jar and-grind of the Rosemary's wheels on snowcovered rails. Drawing the certain, she found that a new day was come, gray and misty white in the gusty swirl of a mountain snow-squall. Without disturbing the sleeping Bessie, she dressed quickly and slipped out to see what the early morning change of base portended. The common room was empty when.she entered it, but before she could^cross to the door the Reverend Billy came in, stamping the snow from hts feet. "What is it?" she asked, eagerly. "Are we off far California?" "No, it's some more of the war. Winton has outgeneraled us. During the night he pushed his track up to the disputed crossing, 'rushed* the guarded-engine, and.ditched it" Virginia felt that she ought to be decorously sorry for relationship's of the canyon. To the left, on the rails of the new line, the big decapod was heaving and grunting In the midst of an army of workmen swarming thick upon the overturned guard engine. "Goodness! it's like a battle!" she shuddered. As she spoke the Rosemary stopped with a Jerk and Mc- Grath's fireman darted past to set the spur-track switch. The points were snow-clogged, and the fireman wrestled wJJdwthe lever, saying words. The—detay waa urable in heart-beats, but it sui The big decapod coughed thric a mighty giant in a consumption clustering workmen scattered chaff to a ringing shout of "Stand clear!" and the obstructing mass of iron and steel rolled, wallowing and hissing, into the stream. "Ralls to the front! Hammermen!" yelled Winton; and the scattered force rallied instantly. But now the wrestling fireman had thrown the switch, and at the Rajah's command the Rosemary shot out on the spur to be thrust with locked brakes fairly into the breach left defenseless by the ditched engine. With a mob-roar of wrath the infuriated track-layers made a rush for the new obstruction. But Winton was before them. "Hold on!" he shouted, bearing them back with outflung arms. "Hold on, men, for God's sake! There are women in that car!" The wrathful wave broke and eddied murmurous while a square-shouldered eld man with fierce eyes and huge white mustaches, and with an extinct cigar between his teeth, clambered down from the Rosemary's en; glne to say: "Hah! a ratheh close connection, eh, Misteh Winton? Faveh me with a match, IP you please, seh. May I assume that you won't tumble my private car into the ditch?" Winton was white-hot, but he found a light for the Rajah's cigar, easing his mind only as he might with Virginia looking on. "I shall be more considerate of the safety of the ladies than you seem to be, Mr. Darrah." he retorted. "You are taking long chances in this game, sir." The Rajah's laugh rumbled deep in his throat. "Not so vehy much longer than you have been taking during the past fo'tnight, my deah seh. But neveh mind; all's fair in love or war, and we appeah to be having a little of both up heah in Qua'tz creek, bah?" Winton flushed angrily. It was no light th}ng to be mocked before his men, to say nothing of Miss Carteret standing within arm's reach on the railed platform of the Rosemary. "Perhaps I shall give you back that word before we are through, Mr. Darrah," he snapped. Then to the eddying mob-wave: "Tools up, boys. We camp here' for breakfast.

(TO BE CON*TIXt*ED.> leges, says the Youth's Companion, is to make chapel attendance voluntary rather than compulsory, and to draw the students in by securing especially able men for preachers. The attendance upon the services has undoubtedly decreased, but those who are moat intimate 1¾¾ the conditions are convinced that^the character of the service has correspondingly improved. Many of the students seek the preachers in privacy, for advice and counsel. The college department of the g-Men's Christian association has grown much faster than the colleges, and in many educational institutions has a building of its own. Other religious organizations also have erected buildings for their own use. In one university—Harvard—there are five student organizations of a distinctly religious character. The American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions—one of the greatest missionary e^sociations in the world—will soon celebrate the one hundredth anniversary of the little meeting of students of Williams college from which it sprang. There lias already been held in Nashville, Tenn., a convention of the Student Volunteer Movement, at which nearly 5,000 delegates were present. No better way in which to sum up the matter could be found than the words in which Dean Hodges, of the Episcopal Theological School in Camj bridge speaks of the character of the young men at Yale: "The voices which lead the cheering on the playing neld3 lead the devotions of the students at the prayer meeting." ^1 ft GEORGE WILLIAMS' MANSION Given to Y.

The sons of the late Sir George Williams have assigned the lease of his private residence, in the west central district of London, where he lived for many years, to the National Council of the Y. M. C. A. as its headquarters. The National Council is of course the organizing center for all the branches of the great institution that exist in England, Wales and Ireland, Scotland baving a national council of Its own. This generous act of the sons of the venerated founder of the Y. M. C.

Moreover. the fitness of that increased accommodation being in the house which Sir George Williams made his home will be apparent to everybody.

Tfcs Igyptians, according to the sage ApoUodOrua, credit their Hermes or Mercury with the invention of music under the following circumstances: The Nile, having overflowed its banks and Inundated nearly all of Egypt, on Its return to its banks left on its shores various dead animals and among the rest a tortoise, the flesh having dried and wasted in the sun until nothing remained in the shell but cartilages. These/ being tightened by the drying heat, became sonorous. Mercury, walkiug along the banks of the river, happened to strike his foot against this shell, was so pleased with the sound produced that the idea of the lyre suggested Itself, and he con structed a lyre of the shell of a large tortoise, which he strung with the sinews of dead animals. Dry den wrote: Lees than a god they thought there could not dwell Within the hollow of that ahell T h a t spoke so sweetly. He believes that it is the dutv of mankind to unite and stamp out this destroyer of human happiness, and bane of true christian civilization, by the strong arm of the country's laws with penalties that will prevent both its manufacture and sale.

THE FOREIGN AND T H E HURRICANE DAMAGE CUBA LESS T H A N FIRST REPORTED, IN TWO CITIES SUFFER MOST - Sweep "pf the Cyclone Covered Only a Limited Area—Mne Killed in City of B.tabano. -• . Latett Reports. Reports receive*! by Gov. Magoon from the provincial governors of Cuba show'that the hurricane was less det- irucUve in its results than was at first believed. The storm was confined mainly to the provinces of Havana and Pinnr del Rio. Uatabano, UO miles southeast of Havana, was the only other town except i he capital which suffered greatly. The mayor of that place reports that nine persons were killed and that many are missing-. The American steamer Campbell, plying between the Isle of Pines and the coast, and the Sara, went .ashore, iiiul many small craft were wrecked. Numerous houses were blown down and hundreds of persons are homeless •and destitute. The loss there is estimated at $600,000. Gov. Magoon has directed Gov. Nunez, of Havana province, to extend assistance to Batabano, declaring that if the provincial treasury has not suf- "fit'icnt funds he will find other mean9 i'oi relieving distress. The mayor of San Luis, in the prov- -itico of Pinar del Rio. and the center or the rich tobacco district, reports Kie.it damage to seed lobacco but no -loss, of life. At Matanzas. where the Twenty- •eighth United States Infantry is encamped, and at Cardenas, where the -Fittiv United States Infantry is quartered, tents were blown down and considerable damage was done to property. No persons, however, were injured. All the southern portion of Havana province is flooded, and great damage was doue to crops and buildiugs. The Isle of Pines escaped without damage. Roving Armed Bands. While tranquility prevails generally AJJ Cuba, reports received in Havana show the existence of roving armed .1/i.uds,. at various, places.

Mrs. Jefferson Davis, "widow* of the presideut -of the confederacy, who has been ill for a week at the Hotel Majestic; in Mew Yerk,» 'died Taeaday night. Death,waa due to pneumonia, induced by a severe cold which Mrs. Duvis contracted epon her return from the Adirondack*, where she had spent the summer meatus. Mrs. Davis was married to Jefferson Davis in 1S46, while be was a cotton planter from Mississippi. In July, 1S46, the first regiment of Mississippi volunteers, then enrolled for service In the Mexican war, elected him their colonel. He resigned and overtaking tbe regiment at New Orleans, made a fine record in the war. Mrs. Davia May be said to have been in public life from 1847 until 1865, as her husbaad was governor of Mississippi, senator of the United States, and president of the confederate states during that time. At the collapse of the confederacy Mrs, Davis accompanied her husband in his flight until he waa captured at Irwinvllle, Ga., on May 10, 1865, by a body of Union cavalry, under command of Ueut.-Col. D. D. Pritchard, of Allegan, Mich. Nebogatoff Acquitted. The surrender by Rear Admiral Xebogateff of his squadron at the battle of the Sea of Japan is held to be highly favorable to the admiral. It has been shown that the hopelessly disabled condition of his two principal ships, the battleships Orel and the Nicholas I., the lack of ammunition and the exhaustion of the crews at the time of tbe surrender, are proof of the courage of its officers and crews. The battleship Orel, instead of being almost uninjured, was so damaged that her commander asked Admiral Rojestvensky for permission to destroy her. She was on the point of sinking the next morning and only had two heavy guns iu action. The sentence of death In the case of the officers who, with Admiral Rojest \ en sky, surrendered to the enemy, has been commuted to dismissal from the service and deprivation of certain rights. -<-d States .marines, in ihe vicinity of Cieutugos armed bands are reported to be enpaged in depredations/A band ^of r.tt mounted nugtibes. the ia?mbejs • •of which call themselves insurgents, ''Is roving about the country near La- *J;.s.

After deliberating 32 hours, the jury in the case of the State of Ohio against the Standard Oil Co. of Ohio, in Findlay, returned a verdict of "guilty" to the charge of conspiracy against trade in violation of the Valentine anti-trust law.

Many Complaints. Many complaints have been made to 'Gov. Magoon by liberals end model ates that the militia, on the one hand, and the rebels on the other, have r.ol given up all their arms. None of t'n'se complaints is substantiated by •r-tu.il proofs. The ]'literals also complain against ihe arts of certain mayors and the police. Gov.

Furber as general manager of ttfe Boston ft Maine railroad it happened one morning that all tmisa snto Boston were very late. At a small station, about five miles out, one passenger was waiting who had a number of men employed in his business, and to him the delay was very annoying. Several trains went by without stopping at his station, and the annoyance grew to positive raging, and when he finally did get to Boston* nearly two hours late, he made a bee line for the general manager's office. That official, however, was not expected until some time later, and the passenger withdrew, in no way satisfied. When he did meet Mr. Furber his feelings were a little Intensified by the addition of several of his favorite morning drinks, Mr. Furber and the passenger were old friends, and after listening to the complainant's remarks, the general manager sought to appease him, and said: "Sit down a minute, John. I want to tell you a story," and John sat down again and listened attentively. "An old woman was brought to this country by her children, but the place did not agree with her and she soon began to fail. Her doctor ordered stimulants, but even this did not check her disease. Just before she died, she wanted one more drink, but this her daughter refused, saying: "Mother, dear, you don't want to go to Heaven with the smell of whisky on your lips! Do you see the point, John?" asked Mr. Furber. "No, I'm hanged if I do/' replied John. "Well, John," said Mr. Furber, "your breath is. strong enough to throw an engine on* the track." "But, confound it, Jim," answered the now quieted visitor, "you don't mean to say that with only you and I here this is Heaven." TIRRiBLE SCALP HUMOR. LARGE RANCHES IN MEXICO.

Among the Americans who have large ranches may be mentioned Fleming ft Ross, the Riverside Cattle company, with 2,000,000 acres and a fine herd of Herefords; .Phoebe Hearst, of California, who has a magnificent place west of Minaca.' the Millers and three Mormon colonies. Gordon, Ironsides & Ferriss, a Canadian company, have 1,000,000 acres; Lord Beresford, a relative of the admiral, has a large ranch where he raises fine horses ; another Englishman, named Irmstead, owns a large property. Smaller places of from 40,- 000 acres upward are numerous. The price of land now runs from" 50 to 75 cents gold per acre, with a strong tendency to rise.—Modern' Mexico. Dr. Johnson's Spelling. Those who are readiest to condemn as "scornful innovations" or "Americanisms" various suggestions for an altered authography are apt to forget how arbitrary the greatest of English dictionary makers occasionally was in his choice between variant spelling, says the London Spectator. It was Dr. Johnson who added the "k" to_ "musick" and "rhetorick" and "physlck," which before his day were commonly spelled as we spell them now. "Labor" and "honor" and "favor" irritate many readers, who style them Americanisms. But it was Dr. Johnson who introduced the unnecessary though perhaps rather graceful "u," and who wrote, in addition, "authour" and "errour" and "governour." The last spelling has only dropped out of the English Prayer Book in the twentieth century. How many church-goers have noticed tht change?

HAD CON* I D * A ED TME POINT. Juryman's Explanation Somewhat of a Jeke on Jutfie. A lawyer in the western part of Maaaaehueetts having a rather desperate case to defend, called the courts attention to the wording of the Btatute, empowering the jury to "Judge or the law as Well as of the facts," and requested him to instruct accordingly. The judge somewhat reluctantly did so, adding, however, that the Jurymen should accept his interpretation of the prinicples involved unlets they were fully satisfied that jkoy knew more law than he did. ' <*nw«ite of this* an outrageous, verdict was brought in, utterly contrary to the,iinatr"uctioae of the jadge, who severely rebuked the jurors. The foreman, a horny-handed farmer, rose to reply. "Jedge," said ,he, "weren't we to jedge the law as well as the facts?" / "Certainly," was the response, "but ^1 told you not te judge the law unless you were satisfied that you knew the law better than 1 did."

"The bane of my existence," said the procrastinating man, "has been my habit of putting things off. I nevejPdo to-day, what 1 caji put off till to-morrow, . "The result is that I am always putting off and never doing any more than is necessary for my current dally hand to mouth support; and so, as the saying is, I never have anything. 1 am not independent, but always dependent upon somebody else for the work that will enable rae to live, and so I can never say my soul is my own. I must do the work I am set to do by some stronger man, whether I like it or not, and so I plod along, just getting through, while the man who collars things gets on. "Of late years as I have come to realise its evil effects and the enormous difficulty of overcoming it I have come to think that the master vice of all is procrastination. And coming to think thus has disturbed me a little, because I have to give up an originally preconceived and long cherished notion. "I had long held that the most nearly ineradicable of personal vices was gambling, but now I thought the most difficut of all vices to cure oneself of was that of procrastination. Was 1 wrong then? And could it be that I was wrong now? 'This, I say, disturbed me a little; but now on this point I rest quite easy. For I have discovered, contradictory as this, at first thought, might seem, 1 have discovered that I was right then and that I am right now. "For now I discover that the vice of gambling is but another phase of, or at least the outcrop of, that of procrastination. The great majority of those given over to gambling hope tc get something for nothing; they hope to get money without effort. They put off from day to day the hard, unflinching work that would give them a sure thing, without chances, on the race of life, and make just enough to in dulge their vice and their vain hopes. 'So gambling is really but a form, ox outcome, of the vice of procrastina tloa. And by the same line of reasoning I suppose we might say the same of drunkenness,, whieh is essentially a procrastinating vice; we pat things off to-day, to-day we will drink; wo will work to-morrow. "And I don't know but what we should find that every ill proceeds from the vice of procrastination; and so this, which might seem but a form of laziness, is really the master vice; and I am one of its most closely bound victims. I don't drink, and I don't gamble; but I have got the fatal habit of putting things off. "Inertia, dullness, lack of power from want of efcercise, come from it —the procrastinating man is always at the same dead low level. He is always going to do something, never doing it; just pulling through with the work he has to do, and gaining cone, spondingly small rewards. He neves knows the joy of doing things nor gathers in its profits, but habit bound, he settles down in lifelong slavery. .p 'And I am one of those victims! Occasionally I do rouse up and do some* thing put of my set routine, and in tho accomplishment of some rugged task that I thus take lip I find a great new joy and pride; and f a m fcoing to keep this up; but next day I sink to the old* level again, and stay there; It is so much easier to put things off than to do things, and this, the trunk bad habit of which all others are but branches, is so deep rooted. "But 1 am not without hope. I have lopped off Chose branches of wh'ich 1 spoke, and I am prying, prying around the roots of the trunk." +^F^^sr^^^^r^^^ar^^s* ' w^rw^s^^^^sw^w^aww Her First Literary Efforts.

At a recent inquest in a Pennsylvanitt town, one of the jurors., after the uetial Hwcuing in, arose and with much dignity protested asrainsi service, alleging that he was the general manager of an important concern and v.-as wasting valuable time by sitting as a juror at an inquest. The coroner, turning to his clerk, said: "Mr. Morgan, kinuly hand me 'Jervis' (the authority on juriesK" Then, after consulting the book, the coroner observed to the unwilling juror: "Vpo'n reference to Jervis,' I find, sir, that no persons are exempt from service as jurors except idiots, imbeciles and lunatics.

W^tticn $itft#ring from Like Conditions Will Be Interested. When a physician tells a woman, suffering" from female trouble, that an operation is necessary it, of course, frightens her. * The very thought of the operating table and the knife strikes terror to her heart. As one woman expressed it, when told by her physician that she must undergo an operation, she felt that her death knell had sounded. Our hospitals are full of women who are there for just such operations! It is quite true that these troubles may. reach a stage where an operation is the only resource, but such cases are much rarer than is^generally supposed, beeause a great many women have been cured by Lydia E. Pmkham's Vegetable Compound after the doctors had said an operation must be performed. In fact, up to the point where the knife must, be used to secure instant relief, this medieine is certain to help. The strongest and _ most grateful statements possible to make come from women who, by taking" Lydia B. Pinkhamjs Vegetable Compound, have escaped serious operations. Margrite Ryan, Treasurer of St. Andrew's Society, Indianapolis, Ind., writes of her core aa follows: 1 ' "jr Mrs. Pinkbam:— " I cannot find words to express my thanks for the good Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did me. The doctor said I could not get well unless I bad an operation for the trouble from which I suffered. I knew I could not stand the strain of an operation and made up my rotnd I would be an invalid for Hfe. Hearing how Lydia E. Pinkham's Ass I n . MSSINUB'S Atfvifie-A Was Vegetable Compound had saved other women from aeriouft operations I decided to try it* and in less than four mouths I was entirely cured; and word* fail to express my thank* fulness." Miss Margret Merkley, of 275 3d Street, Milwaukee, Wis., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— "Loss of strength, extreme nervousness, severe shooting pains through the pelvic organs, cramps, bearing-down pains, and an irritable disj>osition compelled me to seek medical advice. The doctor, after making an examination, said that I bad a serious female trouble and ulceration, and advised ait operation as niv onl v hope. To this I strongly objected—and I decided as a last resort to trr Lvdia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. ""To my surprise the uU-eration healed, all the bad symptoms disappeared, and I amonce> more strong, vigorous and well; and I cannot express my thanks for what it has doneforme." Serious feminine troubles are steadily on the increase among women—and. before submitting' to an operationevery woman should try Lydia BPinkham's Vegetable Compound, and write Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass.. for advice. For thirty years Lydia E. Pinkham'sv Vegetable Compound has been curing" the worst forms of female complaints, all functional troubles, inflammation, ulceration, falling and displacement, weakness, irregularities, indigestion and nervous prostration. Any woman who could read the many grateful letters on file in Mrs. Pinkham's offie* would be convinced of the efficiency of her advice and Lydia E.

Bs a matter of fact, I voted for the people of Michigan and against the railroads on every genuine railroad bill which came before the legislature. I worked and voted against the Galbraith Law and any one interested can refer to Vol. 2, page 1607, of the House Journal of 1905, where my vote is recorded against the Galbraith Law, which gave the Tax Commissioner the power to equalize as between the railroad property and the general property of the state—a law that Was later declared unconstitutional by our Supreme Court—and I also introduced House bill No. 881, in opposition to the Galbraith bill, but lacking votes, was.unable to secure its passage.

G R E B N B Candidate for Prosecuting Attorney Mr. Green has served only one term and should be re-elected for the following reasons:— - 1st:— Because, he has struggled with the adveisitieS of life and through his own efforts has placed himself honorably before the people as a .careful and trustworthy public official. 2nd:— Because during his preseut team of office, he has prosecuted 147 cases in Justice and Circuit Court and out of that number has secured 137 convictions; time bein^ only 4 acquittals and the remainder being nolle prossed on motion of the prosecuter. ' . - , 3rc:— Becaase'Mr. Green has not lost a single Criminal Casein Circuit Court during his term ot office; the 4 acquittals above referred to being in Justice Court. 4tb:— Because as tbe legal advisor of the Supervisors and other County officers. Mr. Greene's advise lias always proved to be correct and safe guarding to the tax payers of Livingston County, 5th:— Because through Mr. Greene's carefulness and strict integrity in his advise to the otbnr County officers on tbe law relative to salaries of County officials, he saved the tax-payers of Livingston County tbe handsome sum of 11200 last year.. 6th:— Because Mr. Green lias insisted that the Justices if tbe Peace throughout the County be governed by Sec. 1061 of the Compiled Laws of Michigan requiring Security lor Costs to be given before issuing a warrant, in the absence of a written order from the Prosecuting Attorney. Xbus saving unnecessary expense to the County. 7th:— Because Mr. Greene has succeeded in reducing the cost of running that office to nearly a minimum in tbi< County daring his administration. 8th:— Because it is customary in this County to give a faithful County official the second term and by voting for Mr. Greene for re-election to that office would show that the tax payers of Livingston County appreciate his efforts and integrityjn their behalf. The above facts can be verified by the public records and merit Mr. Greene the support of the people at the coming election regardless ot political affiliations. • ^ — — — — — i ^ — — — i — HERB TO STAY Pinckney people are giving us such a fair share of Patronage that we shall remain here and look after their wants and give them t h e very best quality of dental work afc prices the most reasonable at which first-class dentistry can be done.

The opera house presented a beautiful appeari ance and the different booths were well tilled with articles both useful and ornamental and the sales Friday evening were large aim very satisfactory. Rain started in about midnight Friday night and did not let up until nine o'clock Saturday evening so the crowd then was very small and shortened the receipts of the fair. The suppers each evening were popular and considering the wealher Saturday was largely attended by the people of the village. These fairs are pleasant places to rueet and spend an evening with many friends and brings in considerable to the societies but there is much hard *ork on the part of some to make them a success. M.

The School Money. The auditor-general has determined that the actual amount of money col lected from the railroads in back taxes lor the years 1902-190:5 and 1901 was $4,753,552.02, and the penalties thereon $1,154,100.85, making a total oi $5,907,552.S9.

O NEIL. ^ a n d p r e 8 u m a b i y have been spent in a single national campaign, and that hundreds of thousands of dollars liave heen collected for use in « few states. *"" " * The public, however, has been kept in'ignorance of the identity of those contributors to such enormous fund* who were so deeply interested in the outcome of elections as to be willing to spend so many thousands of dollars. We discovered last year that insurance companies, whose policy holders certainly were not all to be found enrolled in one political party, had contributed large-sums to cne-polUicul^organizatioiLlQ aiiinJhe_election of its candidates. This could not have happened if the principle of publicity had been applied to the collection of campaign funds. There are many heavy contributors to campaign funds, in each national election, at least, who under no crrcumstances would permit their names to be published, and the party which is the beneficiary of the generosity of these persons would not dare to publish their names. It is evident, therefore, that there is need of publicity; and there is no more reason why we cannot have publicity in this matter than in the matter of the identity of the formers of private corporations. { 0 0 9 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Q O O O O O O O O O Q O O U Before and After.

Deputy Sheriff Warner returned from Toledo, where he was called t o see if the body of the man found in the C . H. & D. wreck was that of Kent who wantonly shot Chief of Police Masten. of Ann Arbor. Warner says that the body was apparently that of a man the same hight as Kent. He had brown hair and blue eyes, as has Kent, and was about his weight, hut in some other ways the resemblance fails. The dead man had a tattoo mark on his arm, which Kent did not have, and although the features are nearly unrecognizable because of the condition in which the body was found, he is certain it i* not Kent.

Continuing his reference to this subject in a personal discussion following his address, Mr. Wheeler is quoted as giving utterance to these words: •Perhaps outsiders do not realise how desperate and bold tl\<j conspirators have become. Nearly all setf-respecting- minded inea in rhe city are behind Heney, yet he may be overwhelmed. Those who are opposed to him are vindictive, desperate, and no one knows how strong. "A coterie of men, myself included, supplied him with what money he needed to push the investigation. Pub lie feeling is wrought, to such a pitch that should violence ho done I do not believe public iudignntkm would st/p short of death to the perpetrators. Heney is a brave man.

Viscount Aoki, the Japanese ambassador, at n conference with Secretary Root at the state department Thursday, made the request in behalf of his government, that the United States Bee that Japanese subjects In California are accorded their full rights under ' the" treaty of 1894, including the right of children to freely attend the public schools of San Francisco. Secretary Root will take the matter up with the president and it is likely" that representations will be made to the.authorities of California. The* ambassador said the exclusion of Japanese children from San Francisco schools is the chief cause of the anti-American feeling in Japan. "The friendship between the United States and Japan Is too genuine and of. too: long standing to justify any 'formal protest on the part of Japan becanse of wrongs her citizens may have suffered hp-9(fme locality in the United States" mid Vlcount Aoki. "There is much misunderstanding in Japan concerning the true situation. Of course the Japanese government fully realizes that the action against Ihe Japanese children is local but all the Japanese -people do not understand conditions in this country, and a local unfriendliness to Japanese is regarded by many persons aa a national action." The action against the Japanese children is regarded as extremely serious by Viscount Aoki and he made no attempt to discount its Importance. "After all the years of friendship between ; the two nations It seems too bad that the poor, innocent, little Japanese school children should be subjected to such indignities," said the ambassador. "Such action on the pari of local authorities in this country 43 resented very bitterly by all Japanese."' The Whole Town Attacked.

He was born and raised in the township of Marion. He is a graduate of Howell high school aud is so well and favorably known that he needs no introduction at our hands. As it is well known "Bob" has been ^handicapped in the battle of life because of physical advantages, yet his ambition and aspiration prompted him to get an education that he might earn a livelihood among men. In this respect he is well remembered as the boy of pluck who rode horseback for years to the Howell schools while fitting himself for the education he sought to obtain. For the short time that he has served the people of this county he has won a large circle of friends and has received many compliments over the neatness of the records he has kept, and for his painstaking efforts as an official. It is only right, honorable and just that the people should remember these facts in bestowing their favors this fall.

Garr ry it *^-M For County S c h o o l Commissioner For this most important office in the county, the people have the opportunity of voting for one of their Livingston county young men, a privilege which the people of the county should encourage. Tire nominee is "Prof. Francis D. Carr, of Pinckney. He was born in the township of Putnam, this county, where he has always resided. Prof. Carr is a graduate of Pinckney high school, receiving at that time great praise from his professor, Stephen Durfee, for his excellent scholarship. Stephen Durfee it will be remembered, was at oue time county school commissioner of this county, and being a judge of scholarship, would have not bestowed these honors on Mr. Carr had he noi been deserving of the same. These facts alone speak volumns of praise for Prof. Carr at this particular time as a very sui.able gentlemen for the office of county school commissioner. Since that time Prof. Carr has graduated from the 8tate Normal College at Ypsilauti with highest honors and given a life certificate. Prof. Carr has had many years experience ! as a teacher in the schools of the county, and his work has shown him,'tO be a man of keen insight aud good judgement; qualities very necessary iu a county school commissioner. The people will make no mistake in electing him. Frank Es. Mowers POP Drain Commissioner Frank E. Mowers, of Putnam, is the Republican nominee for the important office of County DraiD Commissioner. He was nominated by the people at the pirmary election without resort to any political manipulations. This is the first time that the people of Livingston county have had the opportunity of voting direct for the election of county drain commissinor, Mr. Mowers is the nominee of the party that gave the people this opportunity. Before this law was passed the board of supervisors appointed the drain commissioner. This is an important office and one in which the people are deeply interested. Mr. Mowers is a man of good judgement and if elected we believe will listen to the wishes of the people and work for their interests. Mr. Mowers is a hard working farmer of Putnam township, but somewhat handicapped by lameness. He is a hust'er and last spring was elected highway commissioner by a majority of 30 in a strong democratic township. There is every reason to believe that this election will conserve the best interest of the people. 1 - The Truth GEO. A. PRESCOTT, Secretary of State, CHAS. S. PIERCE, Deputy Secretary of State.

SIGLER Our Specials M. E. Church Notes. There was a large audience at the morning service and no one was dis- ! appointed as there was an excellent sermon. Fact is there is that kind each Sunday and people are appreciating it. The Sunday School reached another "high-water"mark aitain with an at* tendance of 106 and collection over $2.80. The different classes are taking much intereet in the rally day, which is next Sunday, Nov. 11. Sermon to | the young people at the usual hour, i followed by the rally day program at 11:30. Come early and be sure of a seat. Bring your children, your neighbors and their children. See that no one misses this rally. Do not be alarmed but what the church will be warm enough even though the furnace does not arrive. It is an easy matter to warm the church in this.season of the year with oil stoves, and the heat is very even and agreeable. There are plenty of oil stoves to be had even should the weather turn colder. Prayer-meeting at the usual hour, 7:30.

It will be a long time before the plug hat becomes actually extinct The plug hat is a thing that never wears out, says the Kansas Journal, ft becomes tattered and generally disreputable, it is true, but this is a condition that seems to endear it that much more in the affections of the possessor. The plug hat has survived the warming pan and the snuff box. When all things else have succumbed to the tide of time, the plug hat has held its own on the heads of its devotees.

Accidents and exceptions for individual reasons aside, tho young man whose chief effort has been to avoid working more than his pay called for and who has carried this as the governing principle of his life, has been .1 greater or less failure. When he himself has reached middle life and has begun to complain because other men have got ahead of him, he. looks everywhere but in the right place for the reason. The place is himself and the reason Is that he made the mistake of never doing as well as he could, because he was afraid of cheating himself. What ho actually did was to cheat himself In the worst way, says the New Bedford, Mass., Standard. There is, as a rule, no escape from the truth that unless a man gives the best there is in him he will never get the best there Is for him. Careers which look like exceptions to this rule are due either to peculiar conditions such as do not arise in ordinary lives or else the appearance Is deceptive. sheriff the expurgated facts are these: A young Jackson miss wab invited to Cement City to attend a dance, and 4{she was to be met at the train there by her escort. lie failed to appear.and in making inquiries she became acquainted with another youth, who offered to escort her to the dance hall.

The only nation that might stay her continental strides toward empire is paralyzed by revolutionary struggles against a government whose existence is a monstrous anachronism. The nations, which must meet her on the worldwide field of indistrial war have tied th/eir own band3 with vain ecouomic theories belonging to a dead time*. There is no nation so practical as tlje Japanese. What is best to be done, that thing they do. Their constitution, is not invoked to inhibit the general welfare and stay up the privileges of a plutocracy.- Dead governmental theories of a bygone age are dead' to them and they modify their political philosophy to suit the future Though they worship their ancestors, remarks the Portland Oregonian, they careless than any. other people for time^wori1 opinion**. The things that we believe theoretically they put in. practice. German Trade in Brazil. Germans are now doing muchof-the business In Brazil that was • formerly carried on by British manufacturers. This is due, primarily, to the fact that the German salesman is particularly well equipped in business training, languages, and adaptability, to secure the confidence of the Brazilians, and secondly, to the fact that German houses will modify their goods to meet the special Brazilian requirements. At the same time German goods are not^well thought of in Brazil and where the proper effort is made American goods will always sell in preference to German goods even at a considerably higher price. For example, nine-tenths of all the electrical machinery in Brazil is American. The editor of the North American Review has come out for woman's suffrage "on account of woman's acquirement of property and because the intellectual equipment of the average American woman is quite equal to that of the medial man."

Honest, industrious and sober, hy hard work he accumulated enough money to keep him in comfort in his old-age. but, it is said through trusting false friends, he lost ail. Discouraged by his losses be became a veritable hermit. A few days ago he became ill and, while neighbors made things as comfortable for him as possible In the little old house in which he lived, it was thought best to have him taken to the poorhouse, though he pleaded to be left to die in hit own home. A neighbor chanced to go into tho house and found him on the coueh. A wound In his head and an old revolver, clutched in his right hand, told the story. His excuse, was, "I want to die here." A few hours later his wish wis gratified. Fifty years ago Lovelock came to Plainwell from England, expecting to make hlj fortune in the much talked of "new country." He worked by tho day and -eooh accumulated enough to buy a little home. His mother lived with him, and after her death he lived alone, never marrying. The latter part of his life he waa almost a hermit, his only companions being some black cats, there being from three tp eighteen of the felines in and around hia little house all of the time. It was a curious sight to see the old man, with his long beard and hair, feeding meat to his blackcoated friends, sometimes himself going without food so that they might be fed. Although he had «o many, he steadfastly refused to give any away, even to those who assisted him with food and clothing. He would talk with only a few of his neighbors, and at the sight of a camera ha would seek shelter in the house, calling his cats in with him. Despite many strategic attempts, a good picture of the,old hermit and his cats never was secured. His cats are as shy aa was their master and repulse any advances. For the most part, they are unusually large creatures and most all of them as black as coal. BIOTBI* JNVSCTIVB. *v r .Root's Denunciation tJ^Mftf* Most \ . J t r r M t o o n R t # j t ^ '*.'

Gft to Cot. Clisha Poster, of Hadley, Mass.* It Has Bee* Treaeiired «• an Heirloom vines "Revolutionary War. One of the* moist interesting relies of the revolutionary war in Massachusetts is a, sword formerly belonging to Gen. Burgoyne, which wag presented by him to Col. Elisha Porter, of Hadley, and which is now in the possession of Col. Porter's great-grandson, Samuel D. Smith, of Hadley, says the Boston Glebe. After Burgoyne's surrender at Saratoga the prisoners, some—7,000 in HARD TO SEE. Even When the Pacts About Coffee — —~ Are Plains—— It is curious how people will refuse to believe what one can .clearly see. Tell the average, man or woman that the slow but cumulative poisonous effect of caffeine—the alkaloid la tea and coffee—tends to weaken the heart, upset the nervous system and cause indigestion, and they may laugh at you If tjiey don't know the facts. Prove ffby* science or by practical demonstration in the recovery of coffee drinkers from the above conditions, and a large per cent, of the hattaa family will shrug their shoulder% take the drugs and—keep on driakrng coffee or tea. **Oqsfoo never agreed with me nor with several members of our household," writes a lady. It enervates, deareeses and creates a feeling of languor and heaviness. It was only by fearing off coffee and, using Postum that JSJSJ discovered the cause and cure number, wero marched from Albany to Boston, whence they were to hesent to England on condition of their not taking up arms against the colonists again. The Hessians were sent by one route and the English, under charge of Cob Thomas Seymour, of Connecticut, by another. The latter route was what was known as the Old Bay road, and was pretty nearly the same route as that now traversed by the Massachusetts Central railroad. When the prisoners reached Hadley they were quartered at the foot of what is now West street, near the Connecticut river. Burgoyne was ill, and Col. Porter, who lived where his * great-grandson now lives, invited him to his home to rest over night The next morning, before the general left for Boston, he gave Col. Porter his sword, which has been in the family ever since. Col. Porter charged his son never to allow it to go out of the family, the son repeating the charge to his son, and he to the present members of the family, Samuel D. Smith and his sister, Miss Lucy Smith, who prize Gen. Burgoyne's gift very highly. The sword is what, is known as a dress sword, or rapier. It is a beautiful piece of workmanship, the handle being of silver exquisitely wrought, and the blade of finely tempered steel covered with delicate tracery. On one side of the blade near the hilt is the king's seal, with the well known words: "Honi soit qui mal y pehse;" on the other side, is a crown and the letters "G. R.," which stand for "Georgius Rex." Authorities who have examined the sword say they have • never seen these letters on a sword before, and suggest that it was presented to Gen. Burgoyne by the king, with whom he was a great favorite. The original scabbard, which was of leather, was silver mounted. This scabbard long, since ctunabled .>. to pieces, and has been replaced by another on which the original . silver mountings are placed. 'They contafc the words: "Loxhaus, Royal Exchange." This sword is all the more interesting from the fact that it was last worn at the battle of Saratoga, which, without doubt, was the decisive battle of the revolutionary war, for as the result of this battle the French were led to send money and troops to the colonists at a time when they were most needed. After Burgoyne's soldiers reached Boston congress ordered officers and men sent to Georgia. Many of the soldiers settled in that state. Burgoyne was allowed to return to Englarrd~"tbe- next spring, where he soon entered parliament and became a stanch friend of the colonists.

Brothers and Associates Display Ferocity Almost Beyond Belief. Charlestown, W. Va.—A story of crime almost unparalleled reached here from Ivydale, a village in Clay county near the Braxton county border. The remains of Russell Perry, a lumber grader in the employ of the C. L. Ritter Lumber company, on Big Buffalo creek, were picked' up by a section crew at Jessica, a lumber' camp three miles from Ivydale. A freight train had run over the man's body and, although terribly mangled, marks of foul play were plainly seen, a bullet hole being found below one eye, while his throat had been cut from ear to ear apparently with a pocket knife or some such instrument. Justice W. P. Hambrtck, of Clay, quickly summoned a Jury for*an inquest and sufficient' evidence was procured to jail three young men, brothers, named Dickey, who had been drinking with Perry, while two other men are strongly suspected of complicity in the terrible crime. Evidence is said to have been given at the inquest to the effect that Perry was beaten almost into Insensibility by his companions, after which he was shot while held motionless and his throat was cut. The body was then placed on the railroad track. Pern* was known to have .had several hundred dollars on his person, of which he had been robbed. Theremains were brought to Clay to be shipped to Farmer, Ky., the dead man's home. A thorough investigation is being made in the hope of bringing to justice all implicated in the crime. The three Dickey boys are cousins of Sarah Ann Legg, who was sentenced to be hanged by the circuit court of Clay county at the last July term for the murder of her husband, but has since obtained a new trial, which is now pending.

Few persons realize when they put on woolen -garments what ^a large amount of animal fats wool contains, for to the touch woolens are not greasy. In the big clothing shops where men's garments are cut, however, the floors around the tables where electric knives clip out the odd shaped pieces soon become as slippery as though they were waxed for a dance. "Why do you wax the floors—to keep the fabrics clean?" is a common query from visitors. But the clothing cutters explain thatthis accumulation of grease comes from the friction of ^yool cloth over the wood. The wood's pores soon become so charged with it that they feel greasy ta the touch, and even the harder woods in tho cutting uutles absorb from the WDo'an Cbors so much of the animal fat that to nil appearances they might be .In steady use in the rendering departmcat o f ua abattoir.—New York Press.

The story of the deathbed of Goethe reveals a striking picture of fortitude, artistic calm and intellectual activity under the chilling dews-of death. The Information is gathered from a letter written on March 28. 1832, the day after Goethe's death, by Fraulein Louise Seldler, an a r t - s t u d e n t and. close friend of*the poet's family. On the evening before his dissolution, with an ley coldness taking possession of him and the death rattle beginning to be audible, Goethe, with his charming daughter-in-law by his side, would talk of nothing bnt his pet theory of color, of the treaty of Basle, of bis desire that the children should gpsio the theater, of his plana for the near future. As sleep did not come with the night, he called for a newly published volume -of history, and covered his inability to read it with a joke. Even at 7 o'clock the next morning, just three | and a half hours before be died, he ! sent for a portfolio to talk optics and J was setting himself to classify some I papers when the last agony seized him. He then lay motionless, notwitbstand- | ing its violence, till respiration ceased ! and the heart stood still.—London Globe. <<.A. LL DEALERS."

K^, * • * THE WOOING OF (A STORY Of THE Pi J'-* * e*HT WlLNLBT (Copyright, 1**, by J« This is a society love story* of the time of 'be tfcve Meai, a story, of the prime of the Paleolithic age. Jewels appeal wonderfully to some women of the present and the same lostinct^fo? adornment was possessed *y the charming Little Toea, beUe undisputed of the clan of Cave Men who lived among the rocks by the White fain. _ ,Tftm8-_are- -not_HBua_Uy white, It Is true; in fact we commonly think of • tarn as some dismal body of water, lonesome and fearful, but this one, though really a tarn, Isolated and • alone, was light because It. had a sandy bottom, and its waters were clear because it was doubtless connected by some underground channel with the not very distant sea. A happy lot of cave people, as cave people went, were those making up the clan which lived beside the tarn, fiahiug in its depths and hunting in Hie Green Forest, and the society was really very fine. So delectable a ereature as LiWe Toes must, necessarily, have rival admirers, and among them, and altogether leading the others, were Big Bow and Cross Eyes. Big Bow was easily the most successful fisherman and hunter in the tribe, and a somewhat goodly man to look upon. Cross Eyes was but moderately successful In the pursuit of food, either on land or water, and he squinted prodigiously. Somewhat unfortunately for Cross B y e s had thus far progressed this ardent wooing. Big Bow, mighty fisherman and hunter, brought daily spoil to the feet of Little Toes; spoil something more than appreciated, not only * y the young lady,, who had a healthy .appetite, but-by her father and mother, who chanced to be people not everstrenuous to grapple with the problem of existence. Cross Eyes did the best he could, but he brought less sustenance to his inamorata, and, as baa been intimated, Big Bow was the more presentable man of the two. Bjaj^jy^s&se^_ojt_Crj9ss_Eye8 was not altogether hopeless. He could talk *far better than Big Bow In the odd, chucki n g way of the cave men, and was • e v e r sullen. Little/Tees had become awed to him and did apt object to flawing him around. Yet, the star of Big Bow was decidedly ifi the ascendant a* The rules of dress of the cave men and women of the time were, becoming rather severe. For Instance, It w a s considered desirable that both gentlemen and ., ladies always wear something in public. This, as a rale, consisted ot a single Akin gar: saent worn over one shoulder and under the other, and, in case of the more - rigidly conventional, belted at the Waist. This admirable garb, of course, I^ft the neck bare. It afforded a magadficent opportunity for the display of jewelry, but the only jewelry e^ver worn by a cave belle up to this par. ticular me had-consisted of a necklace of red berries strung vpoa some grassy fiber. Such a necklace could last for but the passing hour. It was • a transient thing. Such as it was, though*, It was much "affected' by the flirtatious Little Toes, as she did love to adorn herself ' :i>*- at fell upon a day that Crose Byes w a s wandering, ill-mooded, far from the madding crowd, along the banks of a turbulent creek which came tumbling down from the hills to enter the eatlcing depths of the White Tarn. This was, his meditative afternoon .with a vengeance. He recognized the rfact that Big Bow was far ahead of Jnim in the race for permanent possession of Little Toes. He realized that the other man was decidedly the better hunter and better fisherman, and the additional faqt that the quallties- .* of purveyor and provider were then considered in a wooer of the first 1m- - parlance. He strode up and down the . little beach where the creek hurled Itself laughingly over a wonderful bed o f / s h e l l s a ad pebbles into the broad waters-it was seeking, and. finally. sat himself down upon a rock and thought :uoat dismally. He thought of Little Tees as he had seen her that morains. graceful as the slim wood teopard. gliding merrily about, the temporary necklace of red berries showing a line of contrasting color about her smooth, brown neck. He would like, he thought, to tsee a necklace always there, though what did It matter: It seemed that Little Toes Then i. 9 v. »KIN ERUPTION* M Y I A f t t . • 0 * *•> • » ' . nr -. definite!?, a angjaation which ion.

Man's Explanation for Hia Lateness. The other afternoon a man rushed into the Reading terminal, galloped up the stairs and dashed for the train shed just as the gates were closed against him, says the Philadelphia Telegraph. He looked as if he wanted to swear most vociferously, but he was out of wind, and all that he could do waa to lean against the fence and soulfully sigh. It was then that the grinful idiot, who is always on hand, paced over and butted in. "Did you miss your train, old boy?" he queried, with a smiling glance at the panting one. "No," was the grouchy rejoinder, "I chase myself up here that way every five minutes to see them shut the gates." "What made you so late?" queried the other, not at all abashed. 'Is your watch out of order?" "No, my watch is all to the good," replied the man who missed the train, "but I think that my feet are about two minutes slow."

The-Daily Express gives ft as "Igamilsho,". and the Daily Mail as "GammllkL" The cry really consists of two words1, and should' be written "Igama layo." "Igama" is Zulu for "name," and "layo" is a possessive pronoun, mean* Ing either "his" or "their." Thus the Dally Mall, although quite wrong In its orthography of the cry, is right in aaying that It merely means "That is his name." The explanation is that Zulu etiquette does not allow warriors, when they rush into battle, to mention the names of their enemies, but the leaders shout out, "That is his name," pointing to the victims with their spears.

Gglf .Cjpa^l Countif of what YOU could do. -1 Every mother possesses information which is of vital Interest to her young daughter. . Too often this is never Imparted or is withheld until serious harm has resulted to the growing girl through her ignorance of nature's, mysterious and wonderful laws and penalties. Girls1 over-sensitiveness and modesty often puzzle their mothers and baffle physicians, as they so often withhold their, confidence from their mothers and conceal the symptoms which ought to be told to their physician at this critical period. When a girl's thoughts become sluggish, with headache, dizziness or a disposition to sleep, pains in back or lower limbs, eyes dim, desire for solitude; when she is a mystery to herself and friends, her mother should come to her aid, and remember that Lydla E.' Pinkham's Vegetable Compound will at this time prepare the system for the Coming change, and start this trying period in a young girl's life without pain or irregularities. Hundreds of letters from young girls and from mothers, expressing their gratitude for what Lydia E. Pinkham's vegetable Compound has accomplished for them, have been received by the Lydia B. Pinkham Medicine Co., at Ly»n, Mass. Miss Mills has written the two following letters to Mrs, Pinkham, which will be read with interest: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— (First Letter.)

When I wrote you in regard to my condition I had consulted •everaTdoctors. but they failed to understand my case and I did not receive any benefit from their treatment. I followed vour advice, and took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and am now healthy and well, and all the distressing symptoms which I bad at that time havedisappeared."— Myrtle Mills, Oquawka, DX Miss Matilda Borman writes Mrs. Pinkham as follows: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— •' Before taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound my periods were irregular and painful, and I always had such dreadful headaches. " But since taking the Compound my headaches hava entirely left me, my periods »re regular, and I am getting strong and well. I am telling all my girl friends what Lydia E.

She will receive advice absolutely free, from a source that has no rival in the experience of woman's iils,and it will, if followed, put her on the right road to a strong, healthy and happy womaahood.

Considerable "splitting" was done owing to the taut that Putnam township had some favorites on the two main tickets. However it is a strong democratic township and everything, here went that way by majorities ranging from 2 on drain commissioner to 175 on sohool commissioner. Tnere were 116 straight demodratic tickets and 48 republican, showing where most of the cutting was done. Putnam was anxious that one of her sons should be the next school commissioner as was evidenced by the loyal support that Francis Carr received—- 175 majority.

In sptfe of the inij>;>rtaut place given to the nose as an iiuU'X of character, mere is but little to be learned from it In estimating tbe causes of an innate bond between the mind and the fea tures. Most of the correspondences which have been remarked appear to be Of a radical order, but why a Roman l o s e first became associated with a warlike and domineering disposition or bow a long and thin nose became linked with business prudence is more than I . •an say. If we omit the changes | m ^ e r v l e w e r which take place in a nose during the lifetime of its possessor, there is scarcely a nasal peculiarity of value to the physiognomist .which at the same time Is cosmopolitan. No Tartar or Hottentot however warlike, could give proof of it in this way. Japan has shown that she possesses plenty of men with military aptitude, but no Wellingtonian nose can be found within her borders. Again, no Chinese nose Is long and thin, yet John Is not without a certain aptitude at driving bargains.—Blackwood's Magazine.. are still repeated with stest by Dublin Journalists. It was this man who explained, describing a case of drowning off Dalkey, "The body was washed ashore by a receding wave." Of a fugitive from justice he wrote: "The burglar was surrounded on all sides by the police. Escape was Impossible. Suddenly he made his way down a cul-de-sac and disappeared through a side street." The most popular story of this impressionist writer, however, relates to Mr. Gladstone. On the Grand Old Man's one and only visit to Dublin he was interviewed by the eccentric press man. Mr. Gladstone, at the conclusion of a somewhat amusing array of questions, very courteously expressed his pleasure at meeting the The latter, in a high state of delight, said with enthusiasm, "The pleasure Is mutual, Mr. Gladstone, but 18,811 on my side."—London Tribnne.

A Funny Ea*l#, • Russian grand duke was once the guest of a German prince. It, was' early in the last century. In Russia the imperial double headed eagle la to bo seen everywhere and on everything throughout the empire — stamped, painted, embroidered or senlptured. At that period the education of grand dukes was somewhat limited. This grand duke went out shooting in Germany and, among other things, shot a large bird. He asked au experienced huntsman who accompanied him what the bird was. "An eagle, your highness," was the answer. The grand duke turned on him In an irritated way. "How can it be an eagle," he asked, "when it has only one head?" The Oldest Sense of Humor. The oldest idea of humor is surprise This the child exhibits (for that whicli. la oldest we shall find in the youngest) when it hides aud cries "Boo!" both surprising and frightening Its senior, be this senior father, mother, brother, sister, or friend. One may find this primal sense of huiner distributed through the modern short story. Frequently the turn in the plot, if not in its development, hinges upon this child humor of surprise. Even some grownup folk will pull a chair from under one, thus showing themselves still children in their sense of fun. The verbal conceit found in much of the verse In the pages of modern comic papers la of this same class of humor and furnishes conclusive evidence that a number of men and women are at child's play in literature. Poems which end contrary to their foreshadowlngs are of thia sort —New York Herald. A Curious Custom.

He said the parents were to blame for their children not desiring to come to church; Their early training should be such that the child would grow up in the church and in christian man-, hood and womanhood. They should*, be taught tbe. beautiful stories ot tbe Bible and they would never be forgotten. The Sunday school choir fur*, nished the music tor this service and* it was much appreciated. At the close of the regular service occured tbe Sunday school rally and it was an event tbat will long be remerabei ed by those present. The church was crowded to the doors and the program was one of the best given in the chnrch.

There was 193 registered in the classes beside over 50 visitors, and a collect-" ion :f 13.56.

Edward Edgar, aged -5, was shot ; and killed from ambush Wednesday night on M lonely road in New Haven township, near Kaston, His body, .was ; found in the road next morning. Two . heavy charges from a^ shotgun fired fwin u heavy covering of bushes at the left side of the road killed him. One loud entered his bowels and one his head. Either shot would have killed him. The motive for the supposed murder is a mystery. Gossips hint at a feud or a love affair. Edgar left home in the evening to go to Loreiuo Walworth's home, u short distance south. At 8:;>0 ho left to return home, currying a lighted Ian tern on his arm. As he passed a clump of bushes two shots were fired from a shotgun, ii is believed. Neighbors • heard the shots, but paid no attention to them. Mrs. Watson, who lives close to the scene ot the tragedy, heard the shots and a man's cry. but did no: , think of a murder and paid no attnn- • tion to the matter. indications are that Edgar staggered along the road a few steps, then fell across the wagon road. The lantern was still on his arm. Evidently no rigs passed along the road all night, for the body was not discovered until this morning. His mother noted his absence and reported it to neighbors. Charles Watson saw Edgar lying in tho. road, but before going up to the ; body summoned Ray -Jones. They reported to Sheriff Jarrad. Edgar is said to have l>ecn a quiet. inoffensive fellow, arid no one ever ' heard of him having trouble until today. That it is a case of murder there seems to be no doubr. Either sho; would have killed, and if he had committed suicide the shots would not have been placed- as they were. The ; ground'about the bushes, where the idiots are supposed to have been tired ; from, indicates that some one had beeiy'"<^ere recently. W h t a t Outlook la Good.

MICHIGAN BREVITIES. in- ECONOMY HAS PUT THE TREA8URY »N(.F1^E CONDITION. u. s, t Bliss' Plans for Saginaw. Mrs. Allasaba M. Bliss, widow of the late governor, has addressed the following letter to the city council: "All yon have said of my husband in your letter of condolence is true. He loved Saginaw better than any place on earth and constantly planned Its growth and prosperity. In securing institutions, presenting a park and fountain to the city, he took as much pleasure, as iu anything he ever did. Wo can but regret he could not have lived long enough to complete his plans and enjoy the fruit of his labors." It was well known that, the governor, had he lived and his finances permitted, intended to bestow important gifts upon Saginaw, but Mrs. Bliss does not say what they were.

When congress convenes for the short session next month there will not be the urgent necessity for retrenchment and cautson in making appropriations which was so apparent at the opening of the long session a -ye*r a g o ^ A t that time t h e government's cash box was in a bad way. Four months of the fiscal year, which begins on July 1 had passed away and already the expenditures of tho government exceeded the receiptr. by .rujpre than $14,000,000. The administration was frightened At that *atc the loss at the end of the fl>c£l year would mount up to a formidable sum, and the credit of the country might even be affected adversely, for all of which the party In power would have had to answer at the elections just held. The president gave immediate and I>ositive orders to all departments oi the government that every consistent economy must be exercised In the public business and that he expected results. He called Speaker Cannon and Chairman Tawney, oi tho house comiuittee on appropriations, to the White House and went over the situation with them, and from that moment all hope for a. river and harbor bill or any other big bite out o> Ihe revenues during the long session of cougress went glimmering.

Tuesday, Twenty-five years- ago Dr. Beeman quit the practice of medicine to manufacture pepsin chewing gum and later he was associated with W. J. White, the chewing gum magnate, now of New York. Dr. Beeman made a fortune of several million 'dollars, as did Mr. White. It is said that the idea of combining pepsin with chewing gum was suggested to Dr. Beeman by a young woman who worked in a news stand where he bought chewing gum. At any rate, after Beeman had adopted the idea and was making money out of it, he employed the young woman and saw that she was well taken care of when he disposed of his gum business to the trust.

Mrs. Clutton was. one of those long, slight, tired women who always dress io perfection, are never ruffled, never different, who are able to hurry while appearing to dawdle, to be exceedingly annoyed without the least apparent effort, to laugh heartily without making a sound, and to talk with great animation, without in any way (iisturbir.g the undulating, velvety drawl With which they are born.

' HalMragtcallyj haK-comioally% wholly in the manner—so far as we can guess —of a petulant angel, Eva sprang to lie-r feet, tod flinging her collection of cushions- far and wide, commenced dashing &bout the room, greatly to Its Sanger (' '•Marry him! marry him!

" "How wonderfully well—" Before Mrs. Clutton could get any further Eva mounted upon the bookcasenratnpushed back the panel, had caught up a chair from a corner of the little room which coulo~~Jtist be seen through the aperture, and in a twinkling had become, for the first time in her life, a quiet, meek little figure with downcast eyes and folded hands. "How's that?" she asked, through a cascade of chuckles. "Are you certain you can't see my breathing? And do you think it matters if I blink every now and then?" "Certain. The unsteady flicker of the fire in this dim light will make any blinking seem quite natural." "Enid"—Eva looked down with suddenly earnest eyes—"if everything "Oh!" She Cried Aloud, Suddenly. works well you shall choose whatever you like from my wedding presents. . . . S-ss-sh! There's Teddy at the door. I know it by the way he clutches the handle.'" Ten minutes later, after Mrs. Clutton had quietly led the conversation from comic opera to tobacco, from tobacco to Eva, and from that young woman to the new portrait of her above the bookcase, she asked Teddy to excuse her while she went to look for her little friend, and left The room. Teddy had his back to the picture as the door closed; but in the looking-glass over the fireplace he was amazed to see a handkerchief flutter hastily up to the picture's nose, and flutter as hastily back again—amazed, infinitely worried, and full of wonder. During the first quarter of an hour, he stood with his back to her, gazing at her in the looking glass. From the corner of her eye, Eva watched him with a kind of tingling amusement, immensely flattered at the thought that even in the presence of t-liot portrait—a mere thing of oils— be should still be bashful and diftV deat The strength of his love must be enormous! In a moment or two, she argued, he would realize that she was merely a picture, and come and stand underneath her to examine more closely the wonderful fidelity of the portrait, the exquisite skill of the artist; and then, knowing that she could not hear anything he said, he would utter aloud all those burning words he had bottled up so long. In a moment or two . . . Feeling hot all over, his dense head in a whirl, certain only that Eva bad got into the picture, in- order to make a fool of him, Teddy sat down in the chair by the fire to try to. transform the chaos qf his brain into something approaching order. . During the next hour he remained motionless, not looking once in the direction of the picture. To him, the hour was a minute. To her. sitting in thft jsaine attitude, hardly breathing, lii/mry thinking, getting more and more hungry, the hour seemed a week, a year,- an eternity. She made up her mind that when he did think aloud she would snap her fingers in his face and tell him, in scalding, bitter words, that she loathed him, and that sooner than marry him she would die a thousand deaths. "Good gracious! There goes the gong for dinner! Oh, how awful, how horrible! What will they think? . . . Idiot! Creature! Why... . . why . . . Oh!" she cried aloud suddenly, forgetiiug everything under the influence of cramp. "Oh, oh!" Teddy spraug across the room. "What's the matter? What's the matter?" Desperately concerned, Teddy stood upon a chair, lifted Eva down from the picture with the huge gentleness of a six-foot-three man, placed her tenderly in a chair, and knelt at her feet. Her eyes were closed. He was certain she was dying. "Eva, my little darling, open your eyes! It's me, the man who loves you more than all the world." His grammar became shaky, his heart stone, his breathing cyclonic. "Eva, my sweetheart, my beloved, look at me, if only for a moment, and tell me before you die that you will be my wife." Of course, with the change of position the cramp had gone, and Eva knew that those symptoms were snares. She sat up coldly. "I have no intention of dying," she said: "and of course I will be your wife. But I think you are the most abject person it has ever been my misfortune to meet. . . . Yes, of course I love you, dearest Teddy; but think, think what you have made me suffer. The gong has rung and you don't know, never will know, how frightfully huD' gry I am."

Government Asked to Provide Funds. to Prevent Loss of Remunerative Industry and Valuable Food Product. JEWS ARE ACQUIRING LAND. In Europe They Hoid 248 Times as Much as They Did 40 Years Ago. The anti-Jew faction in Russia declares that even with the present restrictions the Jews have managed to acquire a large portion of land, for which the following figures are quoted in the Jewish magazine, the Menorah: 'Within the Pale the real estate of the Jews advanced from 16,000 desslatins in 1860 to 148,000 in 1870, 370,000 in 18S0, 537,000 in 1S90, and to 1,265, • 000 in 1900. "In the kingdom of Poland the Jews held 16,000 dessiatins in 1860, 148,000 in 1870, :)70,000 in 1880, 537,000 In 1890, and 1,265,«* in 1*0«. "In Kuioasaa Russia outstfe the Pale Jewish landholdtn* is said to have increased 348 times in 40 years in the following proportion: In 1M#, 3.000 dessiatins; in 1870. 1S.000 dessiatins; in 1880. 96,000 desslatins; in 1890, 262,000 desslatins, and in 1900, 745,000 desslatins." According t o these statistics the total holdings of the Jews throughout the Russian empire, which only amounted to 70.000 dessiatins in 1860, reached in 1900 the high figure of 2,- 381,057 dessiatins, out of which the Jews own as their property 1,445,000 dessiatins, while the remaiuing 935,000 dessiatins are rented by them as tenants.

Detroit, Mich.—That the whitefish of the great laker, are passing as rapidly from existence as did the millions of of bison which at one time swarmed the American prairies is an undisputed fact, ar-d with the realization that with the departure of the whitefish industry the United States government loses one of its most remunerative industries, and also one of the most valuable food products on the market, it is strongly urged that some remedy be adopted at once. A man prominently connected with one of the government fish hatcheries and who is well informed on the question of fish culture and propagation, stated that the one and only successful remedy is to promptly increase the capacity of the various hatcheries. "The governm<£nt should be willing to expend ten times the amount of money it now does on the propagation of the whitefish," said the hatchery man, "because the whitefish 19 the most valuable fresh-water iish known, end even exceeds The value of salmon $50 per ton in the eastern markets, while considerable more is paid out yearly for the Pacific coast hatcheries. "And then, too," lie continued. "T.0, 000 more whitefish eggs can be handled in the same space taken by sal mon eggs." To illustrate tho seriousness of the impending whitefish destruction, the following figures, which are correct in eyery instance, were given out for publication: The catch of whiteftah in Michigan U l*»t waa 8,110,0M .popnds. while In 1104 it fell 6K- -to 4,l»T,t00 }K>iiads. In Lake Erie the catch tor IS89 waa 3,- 300,000 pounds and in 1895) it came to 2,100,000 pounds. From 1S9H to 190'J the catch in Ontario decreased from 7,500,000 pounds to 2.895,000 pounds. The total catch of whitefish in the great lake3 on both the American and Canadian sides in 1904 exceeded 3,500,000 fish, averaging two pounds and a half in weight, and the loss of eggs contained in these fish exceeded 35,000,000,000. In 1905 the combined hatcheries of the United States and Canada only propagated the eggs from less th«# 10,000 fish, which is altogether inadequate to overcome the great loss of eggs destroyed by the fishermen. Lake Michigan alone in 1904 gave up 1,000,000 fteh, an<r it is safe to say that Lake Erie provided 1.000,000 of the finny tribe, so to overcome this loss the eggs of fully 75,000 fish should be propagated each year. A three-pound whitefish yields over 30,000 eggs, but of these only 80 per rent, hatch, and only four per cent, of these reach maturity—that is, t'oiuyears old. Last year the American and Canadian hatcheries propagated less than 200.000.OUO try, while the number of eggs in fish caught was 35.000.000,- (»00. Forty years ago the catch of whilefish in the Detroit river on the American side alone exceeded 1,000,000 pounds annually, while in later years the combined catch of both the American and Canadian siijws only amount; •to :'5.000 pounds. B U L L E T IN H E A R T A YEAR. Case of Philadelphia Negro Ranks with Medical Marvels. Philadelphia.--Hy living one year with a 3S-caliber bullet nestling in the apex* of his heart. Frank Robinson a i;iant Oermantown negro, has won a lirm place in the ranks of the "medical marvels." Robinson was shot on September f>. 1905, by Policeman Morley, in trying to escape arrest for shooting "craps." He was taken to the Oermantown hospital, and the doctors, being unable io pro!>e tor the bullet, said he would die within a week. Showing superhuman strength, the negro, who then weighed 200 pounds, successfully withstood an attack of blood poisoning, and recovered. When his trial for assaulting >lorley came ui* in May Judge von Moschiisker said Robinson had suffered enough, and gave hlni a sentence of 13 days, a'fter serving which he was released. The doctors say Robinson will not live more than seren years with the bullet in his heart and. strange to say. the more the negro exerts himself, the better his chances of living out the limit. The bullet'is now lets than onesixteenth of an inch from the walls of his chest, and if he allows himself to get any stouter the wails will press the bullet and he will die instantly. "I never knew what hard work waa b*fore 1 was shot," said Robinson. "But you can just hot I'm workin' hard, rnovin' furniture, every day now, and I'm goin' to try and get so thin that my chest won't never touch dat bullet., I'm down to 180 pounds nov." 1 , Voungest Civil War Soldier.

T52 THE ORIGINAL LAXAT1VI COUCH •YftUF KENNEDY'S LAXATIVE HONEY^TAB MS M a fa?J BtMHb «* I.QrJeIiml.1 Dudley Nayos was not stage struck In the ordinary accei>tatija of those • words, but he was struck flat a-backv aa sailors say, with an actress, Lenore Levere, whose real mime was Hannah I Plggatt uud h:ul just n: ule her great ! •access at the Olympic In "How to j Catch a Lover.'' and it h:ul i»eeu run- j nlug a huudrcd u^ais wiioa Noyes went to see it. After that he went ' three ulghts a week till the play was taken off. He frequently sent up flowers when Miss Levere was called before the curtain, and she soon perceived that she had made a conquest Noyes had au Intimate friend who fieRTtBe appointment of physician to the Olympic. A seat was reserved for the doctor, and he was expected to occupy it at every performance. He had done so till "How to Catch a Lover*' bad reached the hundredth night, after which, tired at the repetition, he occupied it occasionally, giving his ticket mostly to Noyes. Miss Levere received several baskets of flowers from the man sitting in this seat and, desiring to know who he was, had after a performance looked at tbe number, then gone to the box office and Inquired. She was told that It was always reserved for the physician. Now, after half a dozen lots of flowers had come to her without a card or a note attached Miss Levere concluded that the donor simply admired her as an actress and had no desire even to form her acquaintance. For awhile she was quite "miffed" and refrained while on the stage from glancing at the doctor's seat, into which latterly Noyes was accustomed to sink when he came to the theater. But pique finally decided the actress to commit an overt act. If Mr. Noyes would not seek her of his own accord he must be forced to seek ber. One evening after she had gone off the stage, having finished her part, though the play was not yet closed, a supernumerary tapped Noyes on the shoulder and said: "Doctor, you're wanted behind the •cenes." Noyes found himself on the horns of a dilemma. If he admitted he was not a doctor he would betray his friend. who would lose his position. If he •personated a doctor—he knew nothing of medicine—he might do a great deal of harm and-get into trouble. There was another objection to his going—bo would be recognized not as the regular theater physician. "Anything serious?" he asked. "I think not. Miss Levere has fainttd, but I thluk it is from overwork." This decided Noyes. He would go as a doctor an say that the regular man, being indisposed, had asked him to take his place for the evening. He arose and followed the super. He found Miss Levere lying on a lounge in the greenroom. She had washed the paint from her face, since it is not becoming at a short distance, and so arranged her drapery as to look very charming. The manager and stage manager both stood over her. The first thing Noyes did was to mention that he w&5> .sorry the regular physician was not on hand, the second to take the invalid's wrist and note her pulse. It beat very quickly, but, for that matter, no quicker thau his own. Then he put his ear down and listened to the beating of her heart and from a geutle spasmodic heaving of the chest knew that it beat in consonance, with his own. "H'm!" he said, addressing the manager and calling to mind the few medical phrases he had in his knowledge box. "There is a slight cardiac disturbance in the thorax, and the pulse Is quicker than it should be. How long has the pioce been running?" "This is the one hundred and seventy- eighth night." "How many matinees?" "Two a week." "This lady, it seems to me, has not the physique for such a strain. I fear the will have to lie off for awhile." "Can't you brace her, doctor?" "I'll give her a tonic." Feeling in his pockets, he brought out a pencil and, being furnished with a bit of paper, wrote: 9 , Aqua pura...........2 ounces Spirlt3 cognac H pint "This simple stimulant will do for this evening, and tomorrow I will visit her and either order a rest or a permn nent tonic." The interested parties took the prescription away, and Noyes was about to retire when the patient gave him a glance signifying that she would like him to remain. "Doctor," she whispered, "beud low er. I have a confession to make." Noyes put his ear near her lips. "I'm no more 111 than you are. I want a vacation. Can't you manage it for me?" •H'm!" said the pretended physician. | "One coufessiou deserves another. I'm not a doctor." "Not a. doctor!" * , "No." Ami he explained how he had happenc 1 so oi'teu to occupy the physkilan's seat. "And haw could you eudure the repetition?" "How can u taau endure often to see a b •.':'. i'.t if id woman he admires?" The uoxt day Noyes called on the patient uud peremptorily ordered that iu view of cardiac spasmodic conditions she must have a week's rest. He might as well have said a month, for any break In performances so late In the season was' us good as an end to the play. Miss Levere never played again In "How to Catch a Lover." Indeed, she never again tread the boards, fbr before securing another engagement she marriedDudleyNoyes. KDMUXD COMFTON.

English actors now in Ix)ndon. after touring "the states," say that they have been surprised at the rise In, prices in this country. One was struck by the high cost of hair cuts in the hotels. The story goes: "Tired of paying 50 cents to be clipped, and seeing' a sign exhibited to the effect, First-class hair cut, 25 cents,' he entered and was attended to. At the close he casually asked:. .'How much?' and was surprised to be asked for 00 cent;*. He reminded the barber of his .sign outside.

Decay. A' MM^iaxtuu.—Despite the uutavor- ^' ss)spcrienco of inauy cities, the of forestry of the government ilna that paving blocks of make a very BaUsfaQtojy and loroical street if adequate foundations are laid and if proper precautions^ aguiuat decay are taicen. The vovemtnent forest experts' say that JB failures of the past have occurred ^ u a e round cedar blocks were eo\ without precautions against delay and without u sufficiently strong 1 foundation. The forestry bureau is now conducting an experiment which will go far toward deciding which woods are best. The progress of the experiment fan tte profitably watched by all cities in which eti'tet paving 'with wood is considered. An experimental pavement has just been laid in Minneapolis as a cooperative undertaking between the city government and the forest service. * Different wood» were used and all were treated with creosote. A publication of the bureau of forestry says of the experiment: "The woods used were longleaf pine, Norway pine, tamarack,' white birch, western larch and Washington fir. All blocks were laid with the grain vertical, and were four inches In depth, four inches wide, and from four to ten inches long. These blocks were impregnated with creosote and laid upon a foundation of Portland cement concrete. Successive sections of the pavement were laid in ' titttftftt jftntitk Also the angles of : t t o cjoflirfes * e # e varied, one being at tfgHrjaftjfljMjtsvthe traffic, another at 41 AkJCMM*- a a i a third between the two, or 67½ degrees. 'This experimental pavement was laid on a street which carries the heaviest traffic of the city, so that comparative results t can be obtained in as short a time as possible. Traffic records will be made twice a month, on different days of the week, and from these records an accurate knowledge of traffic conditions may be obtained. . "This iuvestigatioc should fm;niah definite information on the following polm^: The suitability of the various woods, the relative value of heartwood ami sapwood, the best dimen- Kions for the blocks, and the most serviceable angle for the courses.'1 The government experts are positive In their*" belief that wood pavements have decided advantages. They say: Recent iisu of rectangular wooden hlochs for street pavements has given excellent oa^ults. ftfany.engfneers bolieve that these blocks, when properly creoafifced and laid on a concrete fountig&nfTWkt! a pavement which possesses high excellence in a greater number of essential qualities than any other now In use. Among these qualities are great smoothness, low traction resistance, minimum noise, and considering its smoothness, comparatively liltle stipperiness. Slipperlness lias, sometimes proved ohjectteaahte, Vu/ ia not greater for wood than for sheot, asphalt, all temperature;, cof^Jllons considered; and wood is HBuch 1 * £ variable in this p a r t i o a b l k ^ n - i s M p h i l t .

"Last year, after having my little I girl treated by a very prominent j physician, for an obstinate case of eczema, I resorted to the Cuticura Remedies, and was so well pleased j with the almost instantaneous relief afforded that we discarded the physician's prescription and relied entirely on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Pills. When we commenced with the Cuticura Remedies her feet and limbs were covered with running sores. In about six weeks we bad her completely well, and there has been no recurrence of the trotfble.

[Ortginul.] When the Spanish-American war broke oat Bngene Chamberlla, a lieutenant la the national guard, was of* fered a captain's commission in a volunteer regiment. Clmmberlln was as steady as a rock, lewi breaded, and h li Word was considered tip good as Ills bond. He had been o.i.^iged for two years to Jessica Reeves and at the breaking out of the war had Just got affairs In shape to be married. It was considered wiser under the circumstances to defer the weddlilg till bis return—if Indeed a soldier may be expected to return from a war. Captain Chamberlln marched away, and "the girl he left behind him" never doubted that if he did return they would become a happy man and wife. Captain Chamberlln Just before the elose of the war was wounded and remained in hospital till the surrender at Santiago, when he went home with his command. He had distinguished himself at the front, and his return was looked forward to eagerly by his fiancee and-his former associates. One ef the latter, having fixed his wedding day on the date of Chamberlin's return to give eclat to the occasion, invited the returned hero to be his best man. We have not heard it stated that a man's trouble begins when his friend marries; nevertheless it was so in Chamberlin's case. As best man he was assigned to the bride's first bridesmaid, Miss Helen Day, and every one else In fact was astonished to see by his marked devotion to Miss Day that he had been suddenly captivated by her. There was a coolness between Chamberlln and bis fiancee for a week after the wedding, when the break was patched up, though It was not healed. But a week later Jessica discovered that her lover had suddenly become infatuated with a ballet dancer he had seen on the stage. This affair broke Off the engagement. From this time Chamberlln continued to fall In love with one pretty girl after another. From being admired and petted after his return from the war he fell into contempt The case was one that excited great interest from the fact that the delinquent had before going to Cuba been considered a model of constancy. One day be went to his old sweetheart and said: "Jessica, I love you and you alone, but I seem to be subject to temporary fancies for other girls. I am afraid some of them will marry me during one of my spells, and 1 may be linked with some designing creature who will give me a horrible life. You can save me. Marry me, and I will no longer be liable to these Infatuations." Chamberlln pleaded so hard that Jessica finally put him on probation for three months." He served the term, coming out unscathed, but during the whole of It was under the care of a bachelor friend, who _on the slightest sign of danger locked him up till It had passed. Jessica's Judgment and heart had a struggle for mastery, and the heart conquered. She and Chamberlin were married. Evenr one predicted that the bride would rue the day that she consented to marry a man subject to become enthralled at a moment's notice with any pretty face, and the result was in accordance with their expectations. Captain Chamberlln was improved only hi this: He did not fall in with so many women of inferior grade, consequently his affairs were of a more respectable class. The poor wife suffered, but no more than her husband, whose weakness made his home miserable. Their intimate associates could always see the signs of a new love in Chamberlin's breast in the cloud that rested on him and his wife. One day while Mrs. Chamberlin was cooking in the kitchen her husband, who had just entered on a new Infatuation, joined her there. They had been having high words about the matter in the dining room. When he came In she was rolling dough. A nervous tension that had been long accumulating at last overcame the equilibrium of her faculties, and, raising the rolling- pin, she brought it down on her husband's skull. Realizing what she had done, she threw her anus about his neck and burst Into passionate sobs. "My wound I" exclaimed the husband. "Tou bit me on the spot that Mauser bullet struck." "Oh, heavens!" "No harm done, sweetheart," he said encouragingly, ' )ut I think I*d better see a surgeon." In an hour a surgeon drove up to the house, examined the wound—much of the swelling had disappeared—and upon asking about the original was told 1 that a bullet was supposed to have fractured the skull, but the surgeons, considered it a slight break and.had1 not operated upon It. "I can see evidence," said the ear- "of an indentation which seems modified-by this blow was even tempted to ran after a pretty face. No nore devoted eofcple ever lived together. A consultation of surgeons and phrenologists decided the original wound bad brought about a pressure on the source of one of the sentimental pro penalties located in the center of the brain, which had .been relieved by th second blow. In other words, the captain had ha '. a lot of nonsense knocked. Into him bv -a Spaniard with a Mauser bullet which had been knocked out by^ his wife wl'h a rolling pin. S.

AHDBKWI, Pah. yiNCKNEY, .-::•- MICHIGAB The Teacher's Privilege. What nobler profession can there VJ t!ua that of passing ou to younger fiiuoan livings the best there is in ua? (i is rather a strange contradiction that while education is highly valued In our country, teaching ou the whole has teas honor than It deserves. "It la a pity that, commonly, more taro is had, yea, and that among very wise men, to rind put rather a cunning man for their horse than a cunning man for their children." Wo do not pay our teachers enough for our own good, since a liberal salary attracts talent uot only in itself hut.because It is a symbol of success. Half a million Americans are now engaged in doing what they enn with 20,000,000 younger minds. Surely no half luillion Americans are employed in more important work, "teach self-denlsi," said Walter Scott (and something might be Bald of other virtues) 'and make its practice pleasurable, and you create for the world a destiny more sublime Chan ever issued 1mm the brain of the wildest dreamer," Teach Anything that is good, remarks Collier's, and you touch the depth*. The ablest and truest men aad women are acquired,— those vha know life and are not pedants, act machines with notions of suggestion no ^higher, than the ferule and the copybook. The teacher works with living minds and hearts and souls. Ou no man or woman rests a bigber or more inspiring task. I had a better team. The way ia which the Quakers tore through the Michigan line, both on offeuse and defense, has convinced the Wolverines that their team of 1906 was really inferior to that of Pennsylvania. But that doesn't prevert Ute rooters believing that, nad Penu tackled Michigan two or ^three yeara *!l?o the result would have been far different. Endowed Theater for Masse*. 1« it *6 be believed that- out of our rich, refined, play-lovirlg' population there are not to be found those with sufficient enthusiasm or aelf-sacrifico to raise whatever money is necessary to establish at least one ideal experimental theater, with a sixpenny gallery and a shilling pit, all places to be reserved, and with free performances at least once a week, Where the best works of the best dramatists of the world could be played by a company whose primary object was not to serve as advertisements for the dressmaker, or be mere incidents in the scenic splendors of the carpenter's art? What is wanted is faith, and after faith organization. Even in this day of doubt and unbelief the <shurcb.es can. find faith enough to create organisations which raise any amount of cash, says W. T. Stead in World To-Day. I am loath to believe that the theater-going^ptibHc is such a -godless, reckless, worthless set of selfish loons that it is impossible to raise out of their midst a fellowship of stalwart workers and liberal givers who will begin the democratic regeneration of the theater.

Moody made public a statement which is in part as follows: "In June last, by direction of the president, Messrs. Kellogg and Morrison were appointed by me- to act with Assistant to the Attorney-General Purely, to-ma** au investigation of the i*elations of *he-$Uodard oil Co. of New Jersey to the business of refining, transporting, distributing and selling oil throughout the United States; to ascertain all the facts, and report whether or not in their opinion there has been a violation of tho Sherman anti-trust law by the Standard OH Co. of Xew Jersey or the persons or corporations associated with or managing it. The counsel have completed that duty, and the report of their investigation has received careful consideration by the president and his cabinet." The, attorney-general then gives at length the allegations made in the petition, including statements that the Standard and its various corporation* control about M per cent of the refined oil manufactured in the United States; that this has been brought about by a course of action beginning about 1870; that the desigp throughout has been to suppress competition; that of the original menlbers of the combine the following are still surviving: John D.

Whajt the Petition Alleges. it is alleged-jn .the. ,pettyioa,>fthat John D. Rockefeller aad^.ht3 associates, the other individual defendants, formed a conspiracy to monopolise the commerce in .petroleum and its products at an early date—^about the year 1870—and that the name ihdividuals have control red the'dbmbfruftlon rtiiring-aJVthese^ oafs, in all its forms, and now control'it. It was* therefore, deemed wise to state in the petition i he complete history and growth of this conspiracy. History of the Conspiracy. The petition is logically divided into three periods. During the first one of these periods, from 1870 to 1882, the combination assumed the form of a simple conapiracyr-rthat is to say, the defendants, with the Standard Oil company of Ohio, acted together to suppress competition and control the oil business. During the second period, from 1882 to 1899, the combination assumed the form of a trust agreement, whereby about 40 separate corporations engaged In the same business, turned over the management of their business to nine trusteed, of which tlvaae individual defendants were the majority, so . that these defendants cont rottetf »Uv of -tfcase 'corpetaaeaa.., In If arch, 1892, the supreme court of Ohio declared rhiB trust agreement void and - ordered• Its dissolution. Thereupon, ion March' $1, 1802, the trust certificate holders met In New urk and resolved to dissolve the trust and appointed John I>. Rockefeller, Henry M. Flagler, William kockefeller, John D Archbold; Benjamin Brewster, Henry H. Rogers, Wesley H.t TiUord and O. B. Jennings a s nt&ftdttJng trustees—the individual ts being a majority of these of the Standard Oil company^erNew Jersey from $10^00,006 to $110,000,- 000, and made It the' holding corporation and placed the control through stock ownership of all the corporations previously held by the trusts into the said company, and exchanged its stock for the stock so acquired, share for share, issuing therefor $97,- 250,000 par value—the exact amount of the trust certificates previously issued by the trustees. The stock of this company was increased by a small amount, and is now $98,338,300. Some Standard Oil Methods. The petition then shows the methods employed by the Standard Oil company to monopolize the oil business. These include discriminating contracts with the railroad companies, manipulation of rates, local price cutting, boguu independent companies, etc. .<.*> The bill sets up among others a contract' between the Standard OH company and the Tidewater Pipo company whereby the Tidewater companies are l i m i t e d ' t o 11½ per cent of certain business' in Pennsylvania and N e w York, and the Standard Oil company to receive 88½ per cent of the, business, the Standard Oil company guaranteeing the Tidewater company $500,- 000 per annum profits, thereby eliminating all competition between them. The bill alleges a contract made with the Pennsylvania railroad company in 1884, which w a s in existence until 190(3, by which the Standard Oil company was able to maintain the public charges for transporting crude oil from western Pennsylvania at 40 and 43 cents.a barrel to Philadelphia nnd New York respectively. The Standard Oil company* through its own bip# 'lfhes. transported the oil for e*iglit';.cents a barrel. tending from Kansas to the seaboard; also pipe lines in r /exas and in California; that they own a large number of tank cars and steamships engaged in transporting oil; and that the said defendants have, through the instrumentality of the Standard Oil company of Now Jersey ( a holding corporation), eliminated competition between all of the separate corporations and monopolized the commerce in oil in the United States. Control the Pipe Lines. It is alleged that the Standard OH company has had control of the carrying business by pipe lines in and from all the oil producing regions of the United States except Texas, Louisiana and California; that they charged excessive and unreasonable rates, and rates which were discriminatory in favor of the Standard Oil company; that they have refused t o furnish equal facilities for receiving and delivering oil of independent shippers and refiners; that they have refused to transport oil belonging t o other-i than the defendants and their associated companies, and since the month of August, 1906, have refused to transport oil of others except in such lurse quantities a s to completely prevent hide* l>endent producers and refiners of oil from using their service, and that they liave forced 16 independent refiners now doing busiuess in Pennsylvania and Ohio, and producing their crude oil through the Standard Oil company's pipe lines, to sell all of their export oil to the Standard Oil company, thereby eliminating their competition. This contract was .procured through threats of the Standard Oil company t o reduce the amount of crude oil which it would sell to the independent refiners. Enjoy Preferential Rates. It i s alleged that one of the principal instrumentalities through which the defendants have been enabled to monopolize the commerce in petroleum and its products throughout the United States has been a system of preferential' rates, and rates discrimi' natory against t h e competitors of the Standard Oil company, both in-open and published tariffs and ,hy and through secret and tnfpsbttshed rates, both interstate and intrastate, and by rebates,, * ^ e & f o n i d " a d d preference? Ranted ftpjphe' Stalwart)' Oil company and. its Subsidiary corporations. The bill goes into the details of many of thesp rates, and shows a systematic discrimination, substantially all over the United States, so that rates from Standard shipping points are much lower, for the same distance proportionately' and per ton per mile, than from shipping points of independent competing concerns. These differences in most instances amount to more than a reasonable profit upon the oil. ' Some 8am pie Discriminations. The regular published rate from Whiting, Ind., t o Evansville, Ind., through Illinois, for instance, was 11 cents per hundred pounds. Most of the oil shipped by the Standard company was shipped a t 8¾ cents and 6 cents per hundred pounds. T h e Standard had a rate from Whiting, Ind.; co Grand Junction. Tenn., of 13 cents per hundred pounds, and large quantities of oil were distributed from Grand Juncti'M ill over this southern territory on secret rates which never were published, as required by law, or filed with the Interstate commerce commission. The petition alleges that for about ton years prior to 190G secret and unpublished rates were made from Whiting, Ind., to East St. Louis, of 6, 6¼ and 0½ cents on ,the various railroads, which oil was destined to St. Ixniis and to a large territory south and southwest of those points, while the regular published rate was IS cents per hundred jiounds.

It is essential that a bird used* for this purpose should be strong enough to fly away; but that does not induce the cruel dealers to feed the birds^ or to refraiu from dislocating their wings or breaking their legs. They put down everything to good or bad luck, and leave the customer to choose :i strong bird, If ho can find one, and to go away if he cannot. The merit obtained by setting a bird free is not attributed to Deity, but it is supposed to come in a large measure from the bird itself or from its attendaut spirit, and hence birds of good or bad omen, and especially kftes and crows, are in much demand and are regularly caught to be sold for tlijs purpose. ;SLL mmi WITH EASE ALL PARTICLES OF D I R T AND Piles quickly and positively cared with Dr. Shoop.s Ma^io Ointment.

Massachusetts, for generations, were solely religious observances, while that famous Plymouth celebration of 1G21 was a harvest festival, never designated as Thanksgiivng by its promoters and having no religious significance whatever, so far as known. Moreover, it comprised not merely a single day of feasting and merrymaking, but a whole week of it, and was designed solely for relaxation after many months of privation and arduous toil. There is no record of a similar Joyous celebration in "our annals for generations afterward. thcThanksglvuJgB referred to in subsequent-years uatft after the revolution having been nearly as strictly religious affairs as Sunday itself, and so far as we have any existing evidence not greatly gjvon to gastronomy. >Xo ajentipn ra{ Thanksgiving is found in a contemporary list or! holiday^ tor merrymaking as late rfs 17W.'

Finding that something must be done to lift him out of the slough of despond, she took one of his old manuscripts to her aunt, a rich old lady with a kindly heart, with whom she conspired to make her lover believe that she had found a publisher for the story. Then she went back to the invalid with the welcome news. Dwight got better, but soon began to worry about the delay In the publication. So the aunt furnished a few hundred dollars for the "plates'* and a few printed copies. Then Grace succeeded by giving a third rate publisher the printing job in getting his "imprint" On the title page and thus found a 'distributer. The day Dwight saw his book In print he sat up for the first time in six months. But be at once began to worry about the criticisms. Bo his devoted sweetheart, aided by her aunt, ordered a hundred copies printed find sent them to the critics. But those who noticed the book at all either dismissed it with contempt or made fun of it. Grace was in despair. As eftclt new criticism appeared she looked anxiously for something that she could show the sick man. At last her eye Ut on the following: The author of "The Tair House on the Low Hill" has struck a new vein of humor. Indeed, It Is a creatiqn, but It will be long: before It will be appreciated by the reading public, for one who steps tato untrodden paths, whether ft be literature, science or art, must wait until bis audience's eyesight becomes accustomed to the new light. As soon as Grace saw this comment she hurried with it to her lover. She found him in despair.- He had surreptitiously sent out to a collector of newspaper clippings for criticisms, and, excepting the one Grace bore, they were all before him. She read the favorable words to him with as triumphant an air as she could assume. That criticism was the turning point with the patient- The'one medicine he needed had been found. In V*hundred critics there was but one whose analytic brain, or power of appreciation or discrimination, had enabled him to strike the keynote of its real value. Dwight got out of bed and took personal charge of pushing his book. But the unwelcome fact mentioned by his critic that he must wait for an audience proved to be true. 'The Tall House on the Low Hill" was pronounced the work of a lunatic by most readers, though a few "caught on" to its subtle humor. The encomiums of these were a source of wonder to the many, and disputes as to what the author meant grew more and more frequent Nevertheless the book WSB a financial failure. But Dwight had several such performances in his attic and persuaded the publisher who had kindly lent hfti imprint to the first to undertake a second at his own expense. Dwight did not know that Grace Baxter's aunt had sent the firm a check for $500 to cover the risk. The second book, "Mr. Barnickel,** captured the few persons who had seen the drift of the first and a great many more. But people who appreciated neither of them wondered that any pub- Usher could be found to publish such rot. Meanwhile the audience was widening. In "Mr* BarnlokeT was a small profit to author and publisher. ^Dwight continued to brush the dust from his manuscripts, nnfl under such slight encouragement to wrlt<» others. "Mr. Barnickel" attracted sutficivut attention to warrant the editor of a struggling magazine to publish the third story.

The Chinese method of dueling is interesting, but does not seem deadly. These two Bangkok Chinamen fought with the two forefingers of each hand, stabbing each other with these in the region of the spleen and at the same level on the other side of the body.

In old England, before the law was passed which prohibited "cruel and unusual forms of punishment" murderers wei-e often condemned to death by boiling. In such cases the victims were chained in large kettles of cold water, which was gradually heated until it caused the flesh to drop from the bones. The last English victim of the "boiling death" was one Bouse, a cook, who, it was alleged, had'killed seventeen persons. A S n a i l ' s S e n s e o f S m e l l . Professor E.

In the experiments made a brush dipped in various odorous substances in turn was brought near the different parts of the body, and responses were noted at distances of one twenty-fifth of an inch to several Inches. Only in exceptional cases was odor perceived as much as fifteen or twenty inches away, showing that smell cannot guide these creatures to food far removed. I The Mulberry Tree.

Carried, Flying Across the Continent. Across the continent in leas than three days, which has just been accomplished by Railroad president Harrlman, is a record which makes the hair of oldtlmers to stand on end. It comes so close to Puck's girdle of the earth that one has to blink a few times to see I if this !s an age of fact or oiily of { oriental fancy. There are still living many of tho argonauts of 1840, men who braved every danger to reach the gold fields of California. Six months used to b*~- a iiroJ time limit for the trip to San Frtiacisco.

Yet we must, not f.ovoet that it was the njen of courage and persistence who made the six months' trip that eventually bnlH the ror,:' tb:U makes a tour to Califcm!.-: a mere phv^sure trip lnst-ead of thr event of a lifetime. To understand war, says the author of "A People at School," Is an instinct To illustrate the aphorism, he tejls a story of an English general whose understanding of sounds was phenomenal. One uight, he says, after dinner they were «11 sitting talking at headquarter*. They were ex* pectinK ap attack, and sentries and pickets were posted far out beyond the stockade. Suddenly we hea^d one shot; of course, every one jumped up. The bugles sounded; the men fell in; the officers ran to their posts. Gen. Symons alone had not moved. After lis* teuing intently for a moment or two, he had sat down again. I myself was between two minds, whether to go out wrth one of the parties hastily assembling outside, or to stay with the general. So I stood irresolutely by the door. "You can sit down," said Symons; "it is nothing. A sentry has let off his rifle by accident. That is all." So it proved. While he was leaning upon his rifle it had gone off, and so had his fingers.—Youth's Companion.

Domestic Dialogue Which Betrays Laxity on Both Sides of the House. "What did you do with my pocket knife when you ' finished' using it? i asked a young man of his wife as they stepped from a street car returning from Swope park yesterday. A look of consternation spread over the wife's face as she replied: "Oh! I'm so awfully sorry. I left It sticking in the tree after we ate our luncheon. We were in such a hurry to catch a car, you know." "You probably hold the record for absent-mindedness," retorted the half angry husband. Just then she caught him wiping the perspiration from bis brow with a paper oapkin which he had placed in his pocket instead of his handkerchief. He had left the handkercief lying on the grass.

Hunting for stilt-marks on old China Is often good fun in itself. Almost every old piece of flatware—1. e., plates, platters, saucers, etc.—shows three Mttle rough spots, more or lets clearly marked on both sides, usually In the margin. Theee spots were made in the firing, by the cockspur or stilts —little tripods used between the plates in piling them up in the kiln. The three points where the cockspur touched the plate caused a defect In the glase. Unfortunately, stilt-marks are not as sure a guarantee of authenticity at some collectors have supposed, for they are not only easy to imitate, but they are sometimes Imperceptible on the old Staffordshire. Furthermore, they appear very frequently on modern tableware of the cheaper sort, and so are no sign of antiquity.—- Country Life in America. Believes fn the Newspaper*. ~1 believe in the newspaper," said Mr. Alexander, the singing evangelist "To Illuatrato their carrying power, let me tell a story: MA newspaper, published la England, one day carried In Its columns a sermon by the ' He Rev. Charles H. Spurgeom. That newspaper found lis way to Australia, and eventually wae part of a bundle that was thrown under the counter of a store to wrap up paokages with. In course of time It waa reached and inclosed some arUeles thai were sent to the house of a moat ungodly man. He unwrapped the goods, and as he did so the heading of the sermon struck his eye. The man read It, became thoughtful, read It again. It convinced him, and he became an earnest and devout Christian." Treatment of Modern Bullet Wounds. A most interesting and far-reaching experiment on a large scale was performed at the battlefield of Mukden, says the Post-Graduate. Several sanitary officers with good surgical training being present, out of 100 soldiers wounded in the abdomen, 50 were operated upon by laparotomy, the 50 others left alone, the only treatment consisting in absolute rest and in keeping the external wound opening Mean Of the 50 soldiers operated upon 40 died, of the ncn-operated 40 survived. This striking reeult Indicated the manner of treatment of abdominal wounds throughout the whole war. Laparotomy on or in the rear of the battleneld was afterward hardly ever performed, but strict care was taken that all soldiers wounded In the abdomen had absolute rest for the first three days. Korean Omen of Good Fortune. The Koreans are greatly exercised over the appearance of a bamboo tree through the cracks of the floor last occupied by the late Gen. Mln Yong Whan. Since the suicide of the general m November last the room has been fcept closed, and when the room w i s opened two days ago the bamboo had already attained the heigftt of more than four feet. The Koreans find a parallel In this phenomenon In an event that occurred In Songde 600 years ago, when a patriot defending the emperor waa done to death on a stone bridge Just outside the city. Sereral mouths after his death a bamboo sprouted up between the stones on the vert spot where the ^ patriot had breathed his last.—South China Post. COUNTY OK LIVIN-QSTON, \ I, Willis L.

J _ J - J - 0 - g What Americans Like to Read. Notwithstanding that the realistic novel flada warm defenders like Mr. Mangasarian, Americans as a rule do not find pleasure in it During the past 20 years many such navels have been published here, but who «an remember one that h*s achieved great popular success, enduring and growing into permanent demand? "The Jungle" attracted a great deal of attention for a brief period, but to-day, only a few months after its appearance, it -is dead and buried. Zola's novels, perhaps the strongest of that school, have never had much vogue in this country. George Moore is almost unheard of on this side of the Atlantic. Frank Morris* books had a brief season of notice, but it is safe to say that nobody ever read any of them a second time. The novels that have the largest sale, in this country, like those which have* the most faithful clientele, are romances of adventure, says the Chicago Journal. Even such stones as those of George Barr McCutcheon find readers in plenty, ignoring their lack of literary form for the sake of the incident. It is perhaps not altogether true that this state of affairs is a good one, or that American literary taste is sound. But the fact remains that the people at large have no use for realism, in the sense that it is a faithful report of the sadness of life or its horrors. Americans prefer to have their leisure time filled with tales of romance and adventure, stirring their blood to quicker flowing and exciting their fancy to broader range. That is a good sign, so far as their moral health is concerned. When the realistic novel becomes popular we may expect to find that a great change has taken place in the people, a change that makes them pessimistic and disheartened. But who could be pessimistic or disheartened with the conntry more prosperous than any other land has ever been since the dawn of history?

The criminal industry of holding up and robbing railroad trains has languished of late, but an instance is reported from Gallup, N. M., where the robbers secured several hundred dollars from passengers. This Is small business compared with the daring deeds of the past, when the brigaud3 have often made off with the contents of an express car, sometimes running up into the thousands of dollars. But train-robbing has become perilous since the companies have taken vigorous steps to prevent. On some lines there is a well-organzed staff, every person being a dead shot and a skilled rough rider, kept ready to start in instant pursuit of a band of robbers, and generally the miscreants are caught. The practical certainty of adequate punishment robs the business of its old-time charm and romance. In the 8how*Bus|ness. It seems strange and not altogether pleasing, that the United States government, as represented in the navy department, should be obliged to go into the show business to encourage enlistments, comments the Youth's Companion. The latest and most successful scheme is the movingpicture machine which shows the life of the bluejacket on shipboard, and come of it on land. The advertising value of the plan lies in the readiness ftnd completeness by which it enables the recruiting officers to giye applicants an accurate idea of their duties and pleasures. It is especially efficacious rn the west, where less is known about life at sea. A recruiting party in Nebraska lately displayed the moving pictures to a crowd of 15,000 people. arrived at her home no one was there, and he drove on to the Grange hall, where he learned the girl and hei mother were attending a supper.

The New York Central was recently found guilty of giving rebates to the American Sugar Refining Co. and fined $108,000. ' Joseph H. Choate, former ambassador to Great Britain, in his argument for the defense, declared that there was no precedent in American law for such an enormous fine as the statute against rebating provided. It was necessary, he added, to go back several centuries in English law to find an instance $n which a penalty amounting to more than $100,000 had been imposed. Mr. Choate and Former Justice Alton B. Parker, for the Americau Sugar Refining Co., and United States District Attorney H. L. Stimson for tht government, who appeared as counsel in the case, argued along the same lines as they did in the New York Central rebate hearings. The defense offered no testimony. After Judge Holt's charge the Jury took the case and In accordance with the instructions of the court, returned a verdict of guilty. The jury was out an hour and a half. CRAPfrBY IS A KS^ETXC.

Michigan beet sugar manufacturers are at their wits' end to discover some tactful and inoffensive method of head* lng off dishonest beet raisers, who are beating, too factories out of much money every day. The method must be tactful, fox, most of the factories Will have a hard Job to get all the acreage they need, and drastic measures would drive numerous beet rait* ers out of business. The manufacturers do not say that all beet raisers, or any considerable per cent are dishonest; but they do say that the problem created by the crooked ones is large enough to both* er. It is the custom at all factories to take a sample of a bushel or a half bushel of beets from o&cb wagonload which arrives, and from the per cent of sugar and of tare shown by the test of this quantity the price for the whole wagonload is determined. It is' asserted that some beet growers beat the iae* tory by keeping a quantity of very well cleaned beets about their feoy and when the basket is put upon their load it is these beets, with little if any tare upon them, that go iato-it. A more clever way of trimming up the purchaser is to dry a quantity of ueeta artificially. Thisjeaves as much sugar as ever, but. cuts down the weight, because of the absence of moisture, so that the farmer gets a much higher rating than that to which he is entitled; Of course, not all the beets which go into the test basket are dried, but a good share of them are, making a difference of from 50 cents to %2 a ton.

MISSING TOT DISCOVERED PLAYINtt WITH CUBS. CUES WHEN TAKEN AWAY Little Margaret Schweitzer, of Brockway, Minn., So Welt Cared for That 8he Wants to Go Back to Homo of "Doggies." Minneapolis, Minn.—It Is only great good fortune that has saved tiny Margaret Scbweittser, of Brockway township, Minn., from becoming a veritable wolf-child. "~ "The child bears a charmed life!" aver the township wise folk, with many a shake of the head, "or else how could she be kidnaped by a wolf without being torn to pieces?" Little Margaret is but a baby girl of four. Her father is a well-to-do farmer. There Is another little brother and a Bister, both older. A few days ago the three youngsters went out nutting in the deep woods a couple of miles away from home. Somehow Baby Margaret became separated from her brother and sister, and when it was time to go home the tot was missin?. The other youngsters searched everywhere, but in vain. So home they ran, crying as if their hearts would break. Schweitzer jumped on his horse and galloped back to the woods where, the nuts we/e, but, high or low, he could find no trace of the child. Then he went fur help. Soon a party of 20 men and boys were scouring tht woods for the missing child. But no track or trace of her could with his finger on the- trigger, eropt in cautiously. It was almost dark inside; at first he could see nothing. But gradually his eyes became used to the gloom, and there, sitting on a rock, petting a young wolf, sat the missing little Margaret, absolutely unharmed and as happy as you please! Off scampered the young wolf, with its three mates, at the sight of the man, and little Margaret began to cry. " Oo Tightened away my nice 'ittle doggies!" she sobbed. " 'Oo is a they find. All that night the hunt M a r g a r e t S a t m the Wolfe Den, Uncontinued, but the break of daybrought no tidings. Far and near spread the word of little Margaret's strange disappearance, and the searching party kept growing larger and larger, as people from further away came in. On the second day one of the searchers came to a knoll thickly studded with pine and a heavy growth of underbrush. He discovered a narrow path leading into the thicket^ and I des' eated the nuts and the big doggie tiss me and keep me nice an' warm. But the naughty man came and Tightened the nice little doggies harmed and Happy. naughty man; Margy don't like 'oo. Go away!" . But the yonug farmer snatched up the child and backed out of the place just as quickly as he could. He didn't quite fancy facing the she-wolf in those narrow quarters. And then back to the Schweitzer farm Just as fast as his legs could carry him.

As he neared the top he was much surprised and horror stricken to see his calf calmly chewing the stick of dynamite, and he hurried forward, shouting and waving his arms in a •frantic effort to drive it away. But it suddenly got away without any coaxing or driving, for the dynamite—and calf, too—exploded with a deafening roar, heard at the farm house a mile and a half away. it had chewed the dynamite cap with the rest of its strange meal, and the explosion followed. ^ Mr. Tatman, who was only a few feet away from the well when the explosion occurred, was knocked back into it by the terrific force and badly hurt. The well was 12 feet deep, but no bones were broken in the fall. The hired man escaped from the premature explosion and also from the fall of his employer. He at once secured help and assisted Mr. Tatman from the well, who, upon examination, was found to be seriously hurt internally. He will probably recover. Bruin Chases Negro Steward.

Oyer all the temperate regions th* hyt weather has passed and the fir*t rigors of winter have appeared. As the great bulk of civilised nations is located in the Temperate Zones, the effect of changing seasons is a question of the highest importance. When theweathe r b e g i n s t o change from warm to cold, when cool nights succeed hot nights, when clear, cold days follow hot, sultry days, the human body must adjust itself to this changed condition or perish. The perspiration incident to warm weather has been checked. This detains within the system poisonous materials which have heretofore found escape through the perspiration. Moat of the poisonous materials retained in the system by the checked perspiration find their way out of the body, if at all, through the kidneys. This throws upon the kidneys extra labor. They become charged and everloaded with the poisonous excretory materials. This has a tendency to in* flame the kidneys, producing functional diseases of the kidneys and some* times Bright's Disease. Peruna acts upon the skin by stimu- 'ating the emunctory glands and ducts, thus preventing the detention of poisonous materials which should pass out. ^eruna invigorates the kidneys and encourages them to fulfill their function in spite of the chills and discouragements of cold weather. Peruna is a combination o f well-tried harm- 1 e s s remedies that have stood the test of time. Many of these remedies have been used by doctors and by the people in Europe and America for a hundred years. Peruna has been used by Dr. Hartman in his private practice for many years with notable results. Its efllcacy has been proven by decades of use by thousands of people, and has been substantiated over and over by many thousands of homes. Pe-nt-nols eWoHeV Re sowed R e ov edy For CH««t»c Diseases.

On one occasion, after twelve^ Cubans, had held a sugar house against ninety Devils for two days and were still having the best of it, Captain Christo came, forward under a flag of truce and asked for their surrender. They might march out with their guns and their flag, and, on the sacred honor of a Spanish soldier and a gentleman, they should not be fired on. The Cubans distrusted him, but they had ammunition for only one more day, and it was finally determined to accept the terms. Christo had posted his men in ambush, and when the Cubans appeared all but one were shot down. Three or four leaders like Christo, working Into the Jungle with small forces at their backs, might have finally wrecked the Cuban cause, but there were no others to follow in his bloody footsteps. thirsted for revenge. After many plans to capture him had been laid and failed an American eoldier of fortune serving with die Cubans as a sergeant came forward. This majn, who was about thirty years old, was known only as Hiues., He save no information about himself, and as he was a fighter no questions were asked. He asked for tour tried men to go with him, and he took men whose courage he had seen tested. During an afternoon they marched nine miles to the house of u peon friendly to the cause. He informed them that Christo's Devils were only a mile away on an abandoned sugar plantatio'n. He had visited them that morning to carry in provisions. In marching through the Jungles three or four days before most of the men had been poisoned by a vine like our Ivy. The peon said that fully thirty men were blinded with poison, and of the other sixty many could not handle their muskets for their swollen hands.

It was taking a chance. If Spanish troops came up they would be cutoff; If Captain Christo rode for the lines they hoped to capture him. They were in luck.

D. 1906, at one o'clock In the afternoon, there will be sold at public auction to the highest bidder at the westerlv front door of the Coui't House iu the village of Howell, Livingston county, Michigan, (that being the place where the Circuit Court for Livlngstoa county is held) the premises described in said mortga/e or so much thereof as may ba necessary to pay the amount >lue on said morti»a<'e with S per cent interest and all legal coats, together with an a* torney's fee of $1(5.(0 as covenanted therein; the said premises being described In said mortaijage as the east half of the southwest quarter (1^) o» section number followed in case of capture, and now it | thirty iD town?Ml) numl,er one north of range number fouroast, Michigan, being in the township of Putnam, couuty of Livl^giiiiiii and state was put Into effect. Not one of the five spoke to the captain. He first tried bluff nud threats. He would, he declared, be recaptured within the hour, and he promised that every one of the five should roast before a slow fire. With his arms tied behind his back and a guard on each side of him he was hustled into the jungle and not a word uttered In reply. After half an hour passed the captain resorted to promises. If they would let him go he would pay each one a hundred dollars. He finally raised his offer to a thousand dollars apiece. On top or that he would agree to resign his commission and go home to Spain. Still n\> reply. Coming to the cabin of a man who could be trusted, he was sen! to the Cuban camp after a re-enforcement of thirty men. While waiting for^ the arrival of this force the captain was tied and gagged and thrust down cellar. When the thirty men had come up Hines led the way to the sugar plantation and fell upon the Devils and almost made a wipe-out. Only ten escaped. Wben Captain Christo had been safely landed Iu the Cuban camp he was Informed of the slaughter. He could not doubt it, for the men around him were laden with the spoils of the Spanish camp. He was also told that he must die within an hour. They would not torture him, but he should die by the rope. The man grew white as death and trembled llko one with a chill. He tried to bluster, but it was a lamentable failure Ho had fioen dozens of captured Cubans stand boldly up to be shot to.denth by his order, but the presence^ of the grin specter of Michigan,this Mortagasju being subject to a prior mortgage on said premises.

LOWMAN. (Copyright, IMs/by Joseph H. Bowles.) Kent Trevor came round the corher of the house whistling hfs latest acquisition'in "ragtime, " a fishing rod pn his shoulder, a tin can of 'bait" |n his band. He stopped expectantly at the back plasca steps, but seeing %o one, called: "Mother!" "Yes, Kent in just a minute," came a voice front the kitchen; and fa about that time the owner of the voice, a sweet faced woman with a firm mouth, appeared. "1 thought you were out here, mother, I only wanted to tell you that I would not be home to dinner, as John and I are going over to the Blue Pond. But you may expect a flye^pound trout for supper." (^His mother smiled. Kissing his hand to her he resumed his whistling and set off with a sturdy stride across the fields to meet his chum. Pride and affection showing plainly in her countenance, his inoth'r watched him out of sight. As he left the fields and entered the road he was joined by his friend, John Fenton, a*boy of his own age, whose face lacked the strength that was the predominant characteristic of Kent's, but had far more claim to beauty. They reached Blue Pond, a famous fishing place, in good time and proceeded to the business of the day. . "1 was just thinking, Kent," said John, "of the contrast between to-day and yesterday: T©*ray we are a couple of idle vagabonds, apparently absorbed in thoughts of angle worms and roach, with a possible trout later on "as a lure; yesterday," and he threw out his chest and spoke In as deep a basa as he could compass, "yesterday, we stood in the classic halls of Senoia high school'and orated (at least you did) and received the plaudits of ihe admiring multitude, and incidentally our diplomas and the congratulations o f our friends on'being first and second honcr men. Wa> yesterday a reality and to-day a dream, or vice- versa?" Kent laughed, -albeit a little soberly. • • » "To me they arc both realities and both a little saddening. It is n* light matter to leave your childish days behind you and. find yourself confronted with the great problem, What *te my life to be? or rather, What aft I to make of my life? for after ail, we choose what it is to be. Hate you thought that to-day is probably the last we Will spend together in tne old careless fashion? What are youigoing to do now that you have graduated from the high.school?" "Father says I am to help him in the store 4or^ie*b~yeaBS, withJa final view to partnership I suppose, as 1 am the only boy in the family. What are your plans?" "I am going to college." ^P-h-e-w! I thought it was just ail.jiour mother cbuid do to keep you in the high school until you graduated, and now you announce in" coolest manner and as a matter of course that you are going to college." much amused, while Kent's Jaw; looked square and determined; but (here seemed to be an excellent understanding between them, for the judge clapped Kent on the shoulder and said: "You'll do, Kent I hope your plan wiy succeed. U certainly deserves success." "Thank you!" Kent quietly responded. "I am sure it wilt succeed if I am allowed to put It to the test" When Kent returned 4o> his home he was observed by his mother to be very busy with his tools under the woodshed, and afterwards spend several hours each day la a small but secluded piece of woods back of the house. In a short time, ~ through Judge Dent's Influence, the position of mall carrier was secured to Kent Trevor. Not only had John Fenton been exercised In mind as to the manner in which the mail would go to and from Chetney, but the entire village speculated upou the probability of Kent's doing this or that; but all agreed on one thing, tbat^lf Kent Trevor said he would take the mail back and forth he would do so, even If he had to crawl. •At length the day came when he was to make his fiiat trip. His appearance in the village as he called at Mounted on S t i l t * of Great Height. the post office for his mail bag was the signal for such a shout as bad not been heard iu the rather sedate village <of Senoia for many a day.

It required no little moral courage to do the thing yon have accomplished. Moat boys would rather face a loaded gun than the ridicule you encountered to-day." "And I am no exception, sir; but I was determined to face it even aa 1 wot.M a loaded gun, and the anticipation was far worse than the reality. There was plenty of ridicule, bet It was the good-natured article." "You have not yet told me hoar you ever came to think of such a thing." , "I was reading lately of how the Scottish shepherds used enormous tall' stilts In tending their flocks, both for the convenience of seeing a? great distance and of getting over ground at a rapid rate. I then remembered that I was tbe champion stilt-walker among the boys of our village a few years ago, and as I had In view applying for the position that,you have since so kindly secured for me, it occurred to me that if the practical use of stilts were feasible in Scotland it was equally so in America. The more I thought of it the more practical the idea seemed to me, and I determined to carry it out if I should be made carrier. I had to put In a good bit of practice to perfect myself sufficiently to undertake it, but I think I succeeded fairly, for I made the distance here to-day to marvellously short time." "Well, I admire your grR. Now there is another matter I want settte- i." Aa'i before Kent left Chetney it was arranged that on the days he brought the mail to Chetney he j should remain with Judge Dent as long &s possible, studying under his guidance to fit himself for the junior class in college. For a whole year Kent went beck and forth on bis stilts wiUflhe mail, and so well did be apply himself to his studies under the direction ,, of Judge Dent that he easily entered the junior class, where he soon became a favorite witb even as in the old days at SenoU high school. pjeoefuja ar • wraae)re» •• Betting fa neither so genera! apr sv promlacueae aa it WM 110 yeaaf^|pa> when hooka for recording wagelh efijp always kept on the tables far frequented coffee houses of Sense of tbeee books are still .te found among coflectfcme of aattqueav and they roake iQttrectiaa needinaV All manner of beta era entered there, on marriages, births and deatbe, oa the duration of a minlajry, oa Ike length off the Uvea of prominent pes* soiutges, ea the peeslbtrlty eT earth, even ec The Original Porous Planter.

As the plante which are combined with the figs in the manufacture of Syrup of Figs are known to physicians to act most beneficially upon the system, the remedy has met with, tlieir general approval as a family laxative, a fact well worth considering in making purchases. It is because of the fact that S Y R U P O F F I G S is a. remedy of known quality and excellence, and approved by physicians that has led to its use by so many millions of well informed peopie, who would not use any remedy of uncertain quality or inferior reputation. Every family should have a bottje of the genuine on hand at all times, to use when a laxative remedy is required. Please to* remember that the genuine Syrup of Figs is for sale in bottles of one size only, by all reputable druggists, and that full name of the company--California Fig Syrop Co., is plainly printedea the**rent of every package. Regular price, 56c psr bottle. ^ ¾ .*?:* &£l •• »»?«r—"ff- --< . : > - " ^. j^m ~ # $=¾ •J*.-' ^ K : *?*"»•?'" • * • • . • '**v: T ; r...'^,*-';J>*iN.'*. !$*>* 'VH^i ;>>< ft.- > * « » > * - • • • • K . • ? » ; : • "<J'- -V. : V * " • ±i •*K '''t;W*r"**'' V ,T..':."^;-^(V— .*"S1 K- Mcav:JffHb Isartia^asateMLhe» -awtfbar Walk Heitdarea* ao* «Uf of itstaao«a anvaatin| hit atbtaer, jtWOrin Oae».

The following prog rem will be rendered: Music, Club Recitation, Clyde Smith Music, Grace Appleton Recitation, Clara Switzer Solo, Lulu Benham Reading, Clayton Carpenter Music, Club Poem, 8adie S war thou t Solo, Hasel Switser Recitation, Bert Benham Recitation, Fannie Swartriout Solo, Fanoa Rolison bena, geese, ducks and guinea fowls. To jboyr how., nearly alike the eggs of vaftojB* domestic fowls are In reapact to ooaapoalUon, the .following figtares are given by the ilipirMrifnt of agriculture: Hen's egg—Fifty per cent water, 16 par cent protein, 38 par cant fat Duck's egg—Forty-six per cent water, IT per cent protein, 86 per cant fat Goose egf—Forty-four per cant water, 19 per cent protein, 86 par cent fat Turkey egg—Forty-eight per cant water, 18 per cent protein* 88 per cent fat It should be explained that protein la the stuff that goes to make muscle and blood. Fat of course la fuel for running the body machine. Thus tt will be seen that eggs, though half or nearly half water, are extremely nutritious, containing all the elementa required for the building and support of the human body. But the old aaylng. that an egg contains aa much nutriment aa a pound of beefsteak is far from correct It would be nearer the fact to estimate a pound of eggs aa aanal to a pound of lean beefsteak in nourishing power.—Saturday Evening ats. / v.- Owiof to il^Jact tbafc we canoot jpt&j maktr for our $feop at Howell, we; h ^ e to slose the store in Pinckney so that Sifcn Fjnley, the manager, can fill the place: ;„ .

John Spencer of Duluth has brought back wlt'u him from Ceylon one of the most curious presents.In the world. "Riding on an elephant," he said the other day, "behind a native prince on a hunting expedition, the conversation chanced to turn on Indigestion, to which I said I was subject The prince at once pulled out a black leather button kind of thing, which he was wearing oh a string round his neck, under his clothes. 'What's that?' said I. 'A hyena's snout,' was the startling reply. 'What for?* 'To cure indigestion/ 'How can it do this?' 'It is very simple. A hyena gets its living by digging up ani crunching old bones. Now, It possesses in its.snout this peculiar virtue, that when its nose approaches anything hard, such as bones, those tough substances instantly grow soft, and enable the animal to eat them with comfort and benefit. So you will find it' you keep this charm hanging round your neck the proximity of the hyena's nose, though dried up and lifeless, will soften your food, however indigestible, to such an extent that you win never again suffer from indigestion.'

David Knox, of Manistee, has been appointed by Gov. Warner judge of probate of Schoolcraft county to fill a vacancy. Orson A. Butt*, a New Haven farmer, was fatally shot by accident while hunting ducks. Prof. Taggart, aged 65, a phrenologist and seller of patent medicine, was run down and killed by a train near Boone. While hunting partridges, Edgar Bsown, turfman of Thunder Bay island, was badly wounded. His home is in Grindstone City. Edward Foust, of Ann Arbor, a farm hand, lies unconscious with a scalp wound as the result of being kicked by a colt, and may die. Mike Mittle, a Muskegon Heights Hungarian, was brutally beaten with an iron pipe at a dance Wednesday night. His alleged assaulters have left town. An Injunction has stopped the "St. Joseph of the Maumee drain" and more litigation is in sight, after a year in court. The drain runs into Ohio. Hunters brought into Calumet the largest moose ever seen tu that region. Eighteen bullets were in its body. Horns measured 57¼ inches across. , At the remarkable age of 101 years, !

Manesbach, who shot and kilted himself in the home of his sweetheart, Mary Meier, March 11, 1905, and whose will leaving all to her is being contested in a Detroit court, was read to the jury. It is a remarkable record of a mind brooding on fancied wrongs and the strange fate that had driven other "Natives to suicide. Manesbach had formerly been in the smelting and refining business, and expresses Ue greatest bitterness toward his former partner, saying he hopes he may be tortured with red hot irons arrd that his family may be killed. The fact that his brother-in-luw hanged himself seems to have haunted him and his morbid interest in horrifying tragedies is evidenced by n PREJUDICE BOMBA6TES FURI080 TILLMAN DELIVER* A TIRADE ON THE "NIGGER." »t tea "I had the experience of suicide," he writes, "and 1 know how many are driven to their doom. My advice to the law is to hold anyone who has committed suicide and investigate it and find out the cause.' Oh, would to God that someone had taken me fro n my folks when 1 was a little boy, a year old, I would have lived a happy life. My father poisoned himself a year ago at the market." The gruesome record ends thus, sprawled in big, ungainly letters over the page. "Forgive me, Mary, and give this book to a police officer. Have my head cut open and see what my brains are like. I leave everything to my Mary, whom I wanted to marry." An ambassador of a well-known European monarch was riding in the Btreets of Constantinople when one of the sultan's carriages rolled by. Seeing it was guarded, his curiosity got the better of him, and when the carriage reached him he was daring enough to peep in at the passenger. He was surprised and pained to receive a blow in the face from an attendant in charge." Mad with rage, he demanded audience of the sultan. The sultan listened attentively, and for a moment appeared lost in thought. At last he spoke: "My dear , I have gone carefully into the case, and see exactly how it stands. You are, of course, a gentleman, therefore' you would never have committed such a breach of good manners as you allege to have taken place. Therefore no attendant could possibly have struck you. The whole affair seems to be a product of your fancy. Let us dismiss it." An engineer from Sunderland r , a s spending a few days ID Tx>ndon with a friend, and after a busy morning sightseeing the Londoner chose a large restaurant for luncheon, thinking it would be a novel experience for the man from the north.

"Well," was the quiet reply, "A*B keepin' an eye on ma topsaid the other, "you don't see me watching mine." "No," observed the guileless engineer, "thee hag no call to—it's ten minutes sin' thine went." Hog Works, Grand Rapids citizens were given a surprise when they learned of what their new "sanitary reduction plant" consists. It is nothing less than a big hog farm, just outside the city limits, where the council Is powerless to control the ocL:s that may be wafted into the city. Alvah W. Brown, a former president of the board of police commissioners, recently secured a three-year contract from the city for the disposal of city garbage. It was intimated that a reduction works would be built tV.ere. Later it was told that the garbage would be shipped to French Landing, near Detroit, to be reduced with the garbage from that city.

Miss Emma Butrlck, one of the triplet daughters of J. S. Butrick, of Adrian, was married Thanksgiving day to John A. Bailey, of Tipton. Her triplet sisters, Elsie and Edith, were her bridesmaids.

CHICAGO PEAKED A RICT Audience Become Wild Over the Lurid Word Picture* and Picturesque Pre- Canity. Senator Tillman, of Soutb Carolina, addressed a most frenzied appeal to race prejudice to 3,000 men and women in Chicago Tuesday night, painting in terrifying perspective the Bpcnter of "black supremacy" and punching hard and straight at everybody and everything that has to do with the colored race. So hot was his talk that a riot seemed imminent on several occasions and once was narrowly averted. Tillman wased furious several times over interruptions from the few negroes present. "To h—1 with the law." he yelled. while all but a handful of his 3,000 listeners cheered madly. "Shut' your mouth," he shouted at one man who asked a question. • One time, when denouncing the pureblooded Afro-Americans, a man near the front said, with a laugh: "We haven't that kind of blacks here." ' T w haven't?" rang out the shrill voice of the senator. "Look down that aisle. There's a nigger as black as the ace of spades." The man pointed to by the senator was a pronounced type of the negro. The audience, angered at the interruptions that came from a negro in the gallery, made a demonstration. It howled and yelled and demanded so loudly that the disturber be put out that the speaker could not proceed. The demonstration continued fully two minutes and two plain clothes policemen who sat near the offender arrested the negro. Excitement waB at high pitch and it seemed likely that an attempt would be made to do the Interrupter bodily injury. After telling in detail how the negro Is prevented from casting his ballot in the south, Senator Tillman said: "There le a great deal more to this question than the little racket here In Cbicago." A voice: "How about the negro judge?" Chicago elected a negro to the bench a few weeks ago, but he was counted o u t Senator Ttibrian: *We", I will tell you about your negro judges and about your political machines putting him on your ticket and bainboozling"; those poor Ignorant baboons in eloctingnlm, and then afterwards you fellows who voted the ticket^ without knowing what was on it, find a way to cheat him out of it:" "God Almighty made the Caucasian of better clay than the Mongolian or the African or any other race. The Ethiopian is a burden carrier. He has done absolutely nothing for history, n o ^ a s he ever achieved anything of any gj;eat importance. There are no great-iaen among the race. Yet this people has been picked out by the fanatics pif the north and lifted up to the equality of citizenship Und to the rights of suffrage. No doubt many of you have listened to the oratory of the greatest colored man of this country— Hooker T. Washington. He had a white father, however, and his bralus ancl his character he has inherited from that father." In conclusion Senator Tillman said: "Now, as a general illustration of the injustice that is sometimes done. I President Roosevelt discharged three companies of colored soldiers without a court-martial, and punished innocent i men for the crime of a few. In doing that he transcended the authority of the law, and he ought not to have dono It/* 'One of the greatest catastrophes on the lakes In secant y^arjii»JLfc# found-, erlng of tb« little Canadian s t e a j w r ^ J.

The Adegree team," consisting of Clyde Serrel and Byron Plumb, each about 14 years of age, are missing, and the sheriff in Caro has been asked by the parents of one of the boys to locate them. The story is told that the girls, aged about 12 years, entered tho school bouse woodshed, which servod as a lodge room. The boys attached ropes to their feet and slipped the ends over a beam. The girls hung suspended like Thanksgiving turkeys. "Their screams brousht the teacher, William Baldridge, and the girls were released. Baldridge threatened the boys with arrest for their prank, and they ran away from home. It develops that they visited the jail in Caro and asked to be shown through it. Since then they have not been seen. A canvas just completed shows 524 houses were erected in Kalamazoo the past year, a total for the past three years o* nearly 2,500.

CHAPTER 11. Pe'r (OopTrigbt, MOS, by Lothrop Pablinhln* Co.) CHAPTER 1. V > •••iwK' •W» The Dead City. The city without life1 lay handsomely along a river in the early sunlight of a September morning. Death had seemingly not been long upon it, nor had it made any scar. No breach or rent or disorder or sign of violence could be seen. The long, shaded streets breathed the still airs of utter peace and quiet. From the half-circle around which the broad river bent its moody current, the nea£ houses, set in cool, green gardens, were terraced up the high hill, and from the summit of this a stately marble temple, glittering of newness, towered far above them in placid benediction. From a skiff in mid-river, a young man rowing toward the dead city rested on his oars and looked over his shoulder to the temple on the hilltop. Lauding presently at the wharf, he was stunned by the hush of % the streets. This was not like the city of 20,000 people he had left three months before. In blank bewilderment he stood, turning to each quarter for some solution of the mystery. Perceiving at length that there was really no life either way along the river, he started wonderingly up a street that led from the waterside—a street which, when he had last walked it, was quickening with the ruah of a mighty commerce. Soon his expression of wonder was darkened by a shade of anxiety. There was an unnerving quality in the trance-like stillness; and the mystery of it pricked him to forebodings. He was now passing empty workshops, hesitating at door after door with evermounting alarm. Then he began to call, but the sound of his voice served only to aggravate the silence. Growing bolder, he tried some of the doors and found them to yield, letting him into a kind of smothered, troubled quietness even more oppressive than that outside. He passed an empty ropewalk, the hemp strewn untidily about, as if the workers h£4 -Hett hurriedly. He peered curiously at idle looms ttnd deserted spinningwheels— deserted apparently but the Instant before he came. It seemed as If the people were fled maliciously just in front, to leave him in this fearful lest of all solitudes. He wondered if he 'did not hear their quick, furtive steps, and see the vanishing shadows of them. At last, half-way up the next block, he thought his eyes caught-for a short half-second the mere thin shadow of a skulking figure. It had seemed to pass through a grape arbour that all but shielded from the street a house slightly more pretentious than Us neighbors. He ran toward the spot, calling as he went. But when he had vaulted over the low fence, run across the garden and around the end of the arbor, dense with the green leaves and clusters of purple grapes, the space in front of the house was bare. IT more than a trick-phantom of his eye had been there, it had vanished. Ho stepped, inside and called. There was no answer, but above his head a board creaked. He started up the stairs in front of him, and, as he did so, he seemed to hear cautious steps across a bare flpor above. He stopped climbing; the steps ceased. He started op, and the steps came again. He knew now they came from a room at the head of the stairs. He bounded up the remaining steps and pushed open — t h e de#r With a loud 'Halloo*-' • % /The *eom was ampiy. Vet across it there was the indefinable trail of a N .presence—an odor, a vibration, he anew not what—and where a bar of •uaUgfc* cwi the gloom under a halfteisstiwtaitela, he saw the motes in the at* *P astir. Opposite the door • e 1*4 qssmed was another, leading, tlppajsjMV, to a room at the back of „ ' ^ ^ ^sss^^^psj* ? *." Determined to be no longer eluded, l e crossed the room on tiptoe and gently tried (he opposite 4oor. It was locked. As he leaned against it, almost ia a .terror.of, suspense, he. knew ) he heard again those little, seenings of a presence a door's thickness away. He did not hesitate..* Still holding the turoeifl knob ^ % ¾ ^ ¾ h ^ n i c i l y crouched back and brought his* fleaed shoulder heavily tgainst the door. It flew open with a breaking sound, and, The Wild Ram of the Mountains. Slight though his figure was, it was lithe and active and well-muscled, and he knew as they struggled that his assailant was possessed of no greater advantage than had lain in his point of attack. In strength, apparently, they were well matched. Twice they rolled over on the carpeted f/jor, and then, despite the big, bony hands pressing about his throat, he turned his burden under him, and all but loosened the killing clutch. This brought them close to the window, hut again he was swiftly drawn underneath. As the light flooded in, he saw the truth, even before his now panting and sneezing antagonist did. Releasing the pressure from his throat with a sudden access of strength born of the new knowledge, he managed to gasp, though thickly and with pain, as they still strove: «• "Seth Wright—wait—let go—wait, Seth—I'm Joel—Joel Rae!" > He managed it with* difficulty. face scowling. He turned upon his questioner. "Does my fury swell up in me? No wonder! And you hain't guessed why? Well, them pitiful remnant of Saints, the sick, the old, the poor, waltln' to be helped yender to winterquarters, has been throwed out into that there slough acrost the river, six hundred and forty of 'em. "When we were keeping faith by going?" "What does a mobocrat care for falth-keepin'? Have you brought back the wagons?" "les; they'll reach the other side to-night. I came ahead and made the lower crossing. I've seen nothing and heard nothing. Go on—tell me—talk, man!" "Talk?—yes,. I'll talk! We've had mobs and t i e very scum of hell to boil over here. This is Saturday, the 19th, ain't It? Well, Brbckman marched against -this stronghold of Israel jest a week ago, with 800 men. Tuesday, along comes a committee of 100 to negotiate peace. Well. Wednesday evening they signed terms, spite of all I could do. I'd 'a' fought till the white crows come a-cawin', but the rest of 'em wasn't so het up with the Holy Ghost, I reckon. Anyway, they signed. The terms wasn't reely set till Thursday morning, but we knew they would be, and so all Wednesday night we was movin' acrost the river, and it kept up all next day—day before yesterday. You'd ought to 'a' been here then; you wouldn't wonder at my coniin' down on you like a thousand of Rae- A Staggering Blow Was Dealt Him. "Joel Rae—Rae-Mon't you see?" They looked at each other in pantlag amazement, until the older man recovered his breath and spoke: "Gosh and all beeswax!

I'm .a-pantln' like a tuckered hound—athlnkln' he was a cussed mllishy mobocrat come to spoil his household!" The younger man was now able to speak, albeit his breathing was still heavy and the marks of the struggle plain upon him. "What does it mean, • Brother Wright—all this? Where are the Saints we left here—why is the city 4eserted—and why this—this?" "Thought you was a mllishy man, I te.U you, from the careless way you hollered—one of Brockmap's devils come back a-snoopin', and I didn't crave trouble, but when I saw the Lord appeared to reely want me, to cope with the powers of darkness, why, I/jlst gritted into you for the consolation of Israel.

The older man sprang up. the late struggle driven from hje mind, his brick jest now, takin' you for a mobocrat. You'd 'a' seen families druv right out of their homes, with no horses, tents, money, nor a day's provisions— jest a little foolish household stuff they could carry in their hands —sick men and women carried on beds, mothers luggln' babies and leadin' children. My sakes! but I did want to run some bullets and fill my old horn with powder for the consolation of Israel! They're lyin' out over there in the slough now, as many as ain't gone to glory. It made me jest plumb murderous!" The younger man uttered, a sharp cry of anguish. "What, oh, what has been our sin, that we must be proved again? Why have we got to be chastened?'' "Then Brockman's force marched in Thursday, afternoon, and hell was let loose. His devils have plundered the town, thrown out the bedridden that jest couldn't move, thrown their goods after 'em, burned, murdered, tore up. You come up from the river, and you ain't seen that yet—they ain't touched the lower part of town —and now they're bunkln' in the temple, defacln' it—that place we built to be a house of rest for the Lord when ho cometh again They drove me acrost the river yesterday, and promised to shoot me if I (fast show myself ^agaln.

The Lute of the Holy Ghost got too rambunctious back in the States on the subject of our wrongs. And so they called you back from yotxr mission?" "They said I must learn to school myself; that I might hurt the cause by my ill-tempered zeal—and yet I brought in many—" "I don't blame you. I got in trouble the first and only mission I went on, and the first time I preached, at that. When I said, *Jc«eph was ordained by Peter, James aud John,' a drunken wag in the audience got up and called me a damned liar. I started for him. I never reached him, but I reached the end of my mission right theia. The Twelve decided I was useWiier here at home. They said I hadn't got enough of the Lord's humility for outside work. That was why they put me at the head of—that little organization I wanted you to * join last spring. And it's dou£wgood work, too. You'll join now fast enough, I guess. You begin to see the heed of such doin's. I can give you the oath any time." "No, Bishop, I didn't mean that kind of resistance. It sounded too practical for me; I'm still satisfied to be the Lute of the Holy Ghost." "You can be a Son o f Dan, too." "Not yet, not yet. We must still be a little meek in the face of Heaven."* "You're in a mighty poor place to practice meekness. What'd you cross the river for, anyway?" "Why, for father and mother, of course. They must be safe at Green Plains. Can I get out there without trouble?" The Bishop sneered. "Be meek, will you? Well, mosey out to Green Plains and begin there. It's a burned plains you'll find, and Lima and Morley all tLe same, and Bear Creek. The mobbers started out from Warsaw, and burned all in their way, Morley first, then Green Plains, Bear Creek and Lima. They'd set fire to the houses and drive the folks in ahead. They killed Ed Durfee at Morley for talkin' back to "em." "But father and mother, surely—" "Your pa and ma was druv in here with the rest, like cattle to the slaugh- j ter."

The Lute of the* Holy Ghost Breaks His Fast. In his cautious approach to the Daggin house, he came upon her unawares— a slight, slender, shapely thing of pink and golden flame, as she poised where the sun came full upon her. One hand clutched her flowing blue skirts snugly about her ankles; the other opened coaxlngly to a kitten crouched to spring on the limb of an apple tree above her. The head wa* thrown- back, the vivid lips were parted, and he heard her laugh low to herself. Stepping from the covert that had shielded him, he called softly to her. "Prudence—Prue!" She had reached for the kitten, but at the sound of his low, vigorous note, she turned quickly toward him, coloring with a glow that spread from the corner of the crossed kerchief up to the yellow hair above her brow. She answered with quirk breaths. 'Joel—Joel—Joel!" She laughed aloud, clapping her small hands, and he ran to her—over beds of marigolds, heartsease and lady slippers, through a row of drowsy looking, heavy-headed dahlias, and past other withering flowers, all but choked out by the rank garden growths of late summer, Then his aims opened and seemed to swaHow the leaping little figure. "You dear old sobersides, you—how gaunt and careworn you look, and how hungry, and what wild eyes you have to frighten one with! At first I thought you were a crazy man." ;•• He held her face up to his eager j eyes, having no words to say, over- I come by the joy that surged through j him like a mighty rush.of waters. In i the moment's glorious certainty he j rested until she stirred nervously under his devouring look, and spoke. "Come, kis3 me now and let me go." He kissed her eyes so that she Shut them: then he kissed her lips—long— letting her go at last, grudgingly, fearfully, unsatisfied. "You scare me when you look that way.

If you will turn to your Wei) ster you will find that It means, first. one who denies the divinity of Christ and believes him to have been merely human; second, one who limits the sphere of duties to human relations and affections to the exclusion of the religions or spiritual; third, one wher.is actively concerned in promoting the welfare of his kind, a philanthropist. The third sense is the one in which the word is now most frequently used, and Webster marks this definition as "recent." A Miraculous Cure The following statement bv H. \I.

Kodol Dyspepsia Curs Digests what you eat* [Original.] "1 am happy to meet you, Mr. King, though 1 know you consider that I havt robbed you during your absence of your bosom friend; consequently you are anything but happy to meet me." * "Really"- "Don't tell any polite falsehoods. It will do no good. 1 know of the devotion between you and Earle—that you expected on your return to find that he still belonged to you, that Instead you flud in me a wedge between you and him—that you are prepared to hate me." "J assure you you wrong me. On the contrary"— "Here is the proof. In this letter, written to Earle as soon as you heard of his marriage, you say"— "Please don't read it. I was a fool to write such stuff. Of course Earle had a perfect right to marry, and had I been In his place I should have"— - "Never miud these bits of conventional flattery; they will do no good. I am going to try and capture my enemy. Earle has just left for the Pacific ccxist, to be gone dear knows how long. Meanwhile I am goiug to try to take bis place with his best friend. I shall play Damon, with a view to making you my Pythias. Earle went away crushed at your cruel letter. I promised that when he returned he should find we three a trio, though one of us la a woman." Earle Warren was absent ten weeks, and the day before his return there was. another conversation between those he had left behind. "You are my evil genius." "Your evil genius?" she asked In a tone far from Indicating that she was offended. "Yes, I came h >rue expecting to find my friend. He tad pp^ed Into your pcose^. ;^ii. Then under pretext of making a trio of friends you have made me the lover of my friend's u c . The lady smiled. "You have made a wreck of me, and now you laugh at me." "Men have died, but not tor love." "Honorable men have done dishonorable things for love." "I would delight to make you turn against your friend for me. I should know myself to be loved as I wish to be loved." "You are a devil." "You say I have niade you one. We are well mated." "It only remains to consummate u double rillalny.

"Now you have your victim wlthiu your toils," he said, "you hesitate to crush him." "Come tomorrow night at 10. Earle returns a little later. If I have made you bad I will l>e as bad as you." At the appointed hour the next night Stanton King drove in a carriage to the house of Earle Warren. It was Damon going to rob Pythias of his wife. lie knew that a woman who would play such a part must be a very devil, but it seemed the greater the devil the greater her power over him. He drove up to her door just as a town clock struck the hour of 10, Jumping from his carriage, he ran up to the door. It was opened by the lady herself. "Come in." she said. "We bave plenty of time." "Rut I expecteu you would be dres? ed for the journey." "The journey to the realms of Setau?" "If there were a worse place I would follow \ on there." A sound of wheels without and a carriage drove up behind the one that was waiting. Soi'ne one alighted and came up the steps. The > lady who was to run away with her husband's* friend threw herself on a sofa av.C. buried her face in the cushions. A man entered and stood for a moment lool- Ing at the coupie. lie was Earle War ren. Following him was a young aad beautiful woman. "Stanton," he said gayly, Stautou King reeled and was a boot to fall when bis friend caught him 1- his arms. "Stanton, old man, It'a all right- We've put up a job on you. Thafw not my wife; It's my wife's cousin. Emma Steele. The women did It. 1 told them It would be a shame, but they wanted to make a quartet of n-< all. This Is my wife. EJlen, this i* my best friend Stanton King. You don't haw to elope, old man. You shall be married from this house." King turned and looked at the worn an on iho sofa. She arose and cast a quick glauce at him—a glance to know if she would be punished for what she had done. King started to leave the house. At the door he turned for a last glance and aaw the woman who had deceived him ready to sink back pale aul trembling on the sofa. Rushfog to her. lie caught her in hi* i.nns. There was a chipping of hands on ihu. part of Mr. and the real Mrs. Wurren. and a shower of '•onjjrntulatlous, mingled with taunts on the part of thv latter.

THE LINCOLN STOVE & HUGE COMPANY, Fremont, Ohio. :-;y&.a Cure Tba distinctive weapon of the Swiss was tb« halberd, which waa their principal weapon at Morgarten and Laupen. It is curious to note how the Teutonic nations, even to this day, prefer 'the cut and the Latin nations the point. Wc have bcr.n told %y Gerr.ian officers that when the German and French cavalry met In the war of 1870 the German sword blades always flashed vertically over their heads, while the French darted in and out horizontally In a succession of thrusts. Even the German dead lay in whole ranks with their swords at arm's length. So the English at Ifasllngs worked havoc with their battleaxea. The Nether land mercenaries carried a hewing weapon at Bouvines. The Flemings at Courtrai used their godendags fitted alike both for cut and thrust, and finally the Swiss made play wlth^ their halberds, an improvement on the godendag. The halberds had a point for thrusti lng, a hook wherewith to pull men from the saddle and above all a broad, heavy blade, "moat terrific weapons" (valde terribitia), to use the words of John of Winterthur, "cleaving men asunder like a wedge and cutting them i into small pieces." One can Imagine I how such a blade at the end of an j eight foot shaft must have surprised j galloping young gentlemen who thought j themselves Invulnerable in their armpr. | — Macmillan's Magazine.

Miller of the University of Berlin. In a lecture the professor said that a bite of a pretty girl would often bring a quicker and more horrible death than the bite of a serpent. Professor Miller, who has made a specal study of the bacteria of the mouth, said that only a short time ago he experimented on a beautiful girl is Germany and found that an arrow dipped in saliva from her mouth would send its victim in death throes more terrible than one dipped in the venom of the most deadly snake.—What to Bat - Catarrh of the nose and throat should lead you to at least a«k us for a free trial box of Dr. Sbpops Catarrh cure.

I was miiiwwrl In my infancy and from iar «arlJeat recollection my . grandfather had made me his constant orxnpsaakm. He was an Itinerant preacher oC western England—his circuit, catting aba from walled Chester oat the west to the hovels of the charcoal hesrn.*rs In mid-England; and daring the years of, his itinerancy I followed aim in the pursuance of bis dntJes through sun and rain aud winter 0aa>t I repeat tfcav-in- order to explain. ju*t how I regarded my grandfather unseen force, I appeared to come to where the crumbling shell of aa an* cient oak spanned the palh. I reached into the hollow trunk and drew forth a spade corroded with rust, and rolling the log away I began to dig into the damp, soft eaith. In my trance I continued to throw the dirt to the , right and to the left until from out the brown loam appeared the face in the picture. Then the feverish vision broke, and I emerged as from an hypnotic spell to find the old couple discussing eagerly with Garver Hallard concerning the wedding settlement, This synthesis of psychic suggestions— I dared not ca.'l them more— in the lighten** certain hereditament I s o deeply impressed my mind and so he left ta me. his diary, but which he esarfMtsljr forbade me opening unlit 1 had famed my twenty-fifth birthday. There were many things I witnessed aud heard ia my boyhood for which I ronfct wad mo explanation until 1 broke the seal of this book wherein the magnitude of my grandfather's very soal stands revealed. The first «»ntry In the diary is as follows: • * <» * . . * My hehne* grandson, in this harassed me that I thought of scarce aught else when the next morning I started out ts^ follow my itineracy, preaching the peace on earth of~ which this world knows little until the time was come for me to return to lead the marriage service over Lisbeth and Garver Hallard. 1 had stopped the night at the market town of Oswestry, a day's journey from the'iun, uiv! when i rode away in the morniug i galloped over a goodly number oi miles before diary are recorded events writ down ' T R a v e s m a n h e p d t() m v s u r r o u n ^. for thy especial edification.

It' v a t in, the first years of my j posse and a miotloy crowd of excited cltiieus, I returned to the spot —my absence of explanation unnoticed in the 1 rensy of the hour. With the exhuming of the body an unusual phenomenon Waa discovered to have taken place. The waters of the little brook close by had . permeated through the soil to the corpse m of the murdered man and, acting upon the tissues, had preserved it with lifelike features. Both I, and those with me who had known him in life, recognized in him Lisbeth's husband who had so mysteriously disappeared four years before. A stab in the back that penetrated to the heart told how he bad met his death. When I went on to the Inn to prepare the widow and her parents for the bringing home of the husband so long dead, I found Garver Hallard, and a few guests who had been invited to the wedding, impatiently awaiting -me. Lisbeth 'iad been tricked out in bridal white, but her expression was that of deepest despair. . "In view* of the news I bring, the marriago would better be postponed awhile," I said low ?et so that all might understand. 'Lisbeth, I bring thee sad tidings of thy last husband." Then 1 said that the body was found and Hallard staggered back against the bar as though I had dealt him a blow. There came a great fear into his narrow eyes, his swarthy features grew livid; aud after I had told. my tale he asked with quivering lips and voice if any caie to the assassin had been discovered: and I, bearing the glow ii; mind, did look him level in" the eye ai..'. answer him shortly ••yes." hi the confusion of the laying out COY'S HEAD ONc SOLID SORE.

Farm Laborers Get Little Above Bare Subsistence. something familiar in the landscape j though to my ken I had never passed i of the dead man and the impanelling slndy ot the occult, long before thou hadst. come to gladden thy grand strw'n heart, that I was journeying to Blore Hearth. When night came down fate led me to the door of a desolate fnn riowly dropping to ruin in the ,I*evpetnaI shadow .of a grove of oak. The aged host greeted me most cordially, for at his inn guests were not frcqueat and therefore the more welcome. In the parlor back of the denuded bar I found his old wife and .bis danghter, the only oiher persons iUn>nt the ptaxre. moving silently here and there gwpp&ring flic evening meal. t h e daughter was young and tall and straight aad Aftrmg and her hands were conrs«»»fc<l with outdoor work for. it appeart.d. -one was now the = burden-hearer of the family. After the «wrpper'was cleared away, the aged parents entertained me with remiaiscewces Of a past glory, of when the ina was new and the great tide of travel used to pass its door. Then in saddened tones they told of how the ©peaias of a new thorough fart* had diverged custom to other hostelrfes. So when the daughter was married to a well-to-do young farmer fhey closed ihe inn, perforce, and went and made their honv> with her. Tint one OVfated day ' the newlywedded hnsbaad rode away to a neighboring market town and never returned- Aiter doe time the farm and tenement* passed into tlie possession of the next heir-at-law, a cousin of the husband; and. the old couple with their dower**** datfghte; returned to rfte deserted inn, now racked and vreefced with storm and long neglect. •'Th»«B eanst see the gables of the farm over you. above the trees," said the mother. *"aad we might be living there now "mid comfort and plenty if i.'shdh would only hearken to us and wed with Garver Hallard, the consin who HHceeede-l to the estate. * Then IJaheth. lifting her sovrow- !*dca eyea ti> a portrait of her husbnad e » the wall, said: "Mother, fhon aeed'at act grieve for the rich fttins at the farm beyond Whitsuntide. That day I promise to give my r*a«kd 4o Garver Hallard an' he sOll destrc « it.."* Then a gloomy silence fell like a ftiiteraf poll over as, and we sat about t*K» fire absorbed In our own thoughts «n!il thews eaaae the sound of a quick A-tei« op tfce pathway and an imfK «rati«K kaeei-c at the door, and Gar- -KM- tlaOacrd entered. He was a dark. teroVfcatawew. harsh-spoken man «h*»m any tender young woman might wefi have ah^aned. < eoa&d not understand it then but I kttwHieely feJt that he was a man ith a gnffty eansctence. And in the UghL of the recent narration. ! fell tc»'rceM»riBa; his features with thoso of the ptetwre hanging above his head.

Hut his account is with timl! He keeps it, and He will settle it when the dial points the hour! . With the disappearance of Hallard, Lisbeth, as the only heir-at-law again came into the estate that her husband haunted the earth to restore to her; and now that his body was laid in a consecrated grave, his restless wrath seemed to find peace beyond the portcullis of the Borderland, in that Heaven, that Nirvana of our hopes, we pray. Here ended the first entry in my grandfather's diary. The extreme poverty and the low standard df living of peasants from whom the Russian agricultural laborers are recruited assure a low level of wages for agricultural labor. The average wages will appear almost Incredibly low from an American point of view, notwithstanding the general complaints of the estate holders concerning ihe unreasonable demands of the laborers. According to an official investigation embracing the decade of 1882-1891, the average annual wages for a male agricultural woiker in Russia were less than $32 and for a female worker less than $18. To this must be added the coat of subsistence, which is equally low, being on an average $24 for a male and $22 for a female worker for a whole year; sr# that the average cost of* employing ?i "nborer for the entire year is equal 1c only $55 for Table Talk. "I once saw a man," remarked the Wise Guy, "who was so thin that they t had to make a'n Incision In his skin every few hours and blow him up with a pneumatic pump to keep him from wearing holes in his hide." "That's nothing," replied, the irrepressible. "I once knew a feHow who was so thin that one stroke of the razor shaved both-side* of hi»v face, his cheeks were thert close together." "And I once knew a man,*:sald the Brave Boy, "who didn't have any more meat on his bones than this old rooster did before he died." "And I once Knew some gentlemen,", snapped the landlady, motioning for the Sweet Thing to remove the dishes. I Reached Into the Hollow Trunk. leaves and woody fragments for the spade which I did not doubt but I should find concealed therein; and after I drew it forth I paused to verify each stamp which time and the elements had set upon blade and handle, as I had remarked them erstwhile in my vision. As I rolled the log baek from its hollowed bed I espied among the crumbling bits of bark the remnant of a glove, with the initial H embroidered upon the wrist. I hastened back to Oswestry and raised a hue and cry that murder had been committed. Accompanied by a sheriff and Stone That Bends. The stone looked like ia piece of dark granite. It was a foot long, and several inches thick. Lifted, it bent this way and that, like rubber. "It is itacolumite or flexible sandstone," said the owner. "It is found in California, Georgia, and several other states. Besides bending it will stretch. "Look at it closely and you will see that it is formed of a number of small pieces of stone of various tints, all dovetailed together loosely, so as to allow of a slight movement. "This movement is what causes the stone to bend. See how It bends! Like rubber precisely, eh? But if I bend It too far it will break." the male and $40 for the female. The wages for tiie summer season of live months are almost equal to the annual wages, being $22 for the male and $1?. for the female laborer. Japan's Empress Popular. It is doubtiul if any royal consort b more loved by her people than is tht-' empress Of Japan. Educated accord ing to feudal ideas and skilled in all the accomplishments befitting rne oi her social eminence, her majesty strongly favors the broadness of the new education for women and from her private purse gives large sums toward the maintenance of women's schools and universities. During the war with Russia the empress visited the hospitals many times and every day passed hours makiug bandages. The effect of these bandages upon the wounded soldiers ha* been of deep in terest to medical and scientific men, for the soldiers honored by them seemed to rally under a peculiar^ men tal influence. All other bandages were destroyed after their fir3t use; those made by the empress were sterilized and used again for the simple reason of their effect on the recovery of th« soldiers.

Here we have a country where no city exceedsH 100,000, and where only one "comes within easy distance of that figure according ,to the census just taken and where no other city reaches a population ceedrng 16,000. The places with • . . population over 5,000 ca» be c o u n t e t v upon the fingers of one hand, and yag the prosperity that prevails Is something unprecedented in the history of all countries past or present The reason for this marvelous prosperity Is not hard to seek. The large majority of the 810,000 people who inhabit Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, have gone on to the farm, ^ and have betaken themselves to the task of. not only feeding and-clothing themselves, but of raising-''food' for others less happily circumstanced. The crop of 1900, although not abnormal, is an eye-opener to many who previously had given little thought to the subject. Ninety million bushels of wheat at 70 cents per bushel—$63,000,- 000; 76,000,000 bushels of oats at 30 cents per bushel—$22,800,000; 17,000,- 000 bushels of barley at 40 cents per bushel—$6,800,000; makes a total of $92,600,000. This Is altogether outside the root products; dairy produce, and the returns frcm the cattle trade; the beet sugar industry and the various other by-products of mixed farming. When such returns are. obtainable from the soil it is not to be wondered at that many are leaving the congested districts- of the eayst, to take upon themselves the life of the prairie farm and the labor of the housbandman. With the construction of additional railroads new avenues, for agriculturakenterprlse are opening up, and improved opportunities are offered to the settle'* who understands prairie farming;, and Is willing to do his part in building up the new country. This is the theme that Mr. J. J. Hill, the—veteran-railroad builder—i&-4he West, has laid before the people in a series of addresses which he Has given at various points during the past few months, and, having been for so long identified with the development of* the West, there are few men better qualified than he to express an opinion upon it. Take care of the country, says he, and the cities will take care of themselves. The farmers of the Western States and tho Canadian West, are more prosperous than ever before, and when It cornea to measuring -up results, the Canadian appears to have somewhat the better of it. His land is cheaper in fact, the government continues to give free homesteads to settlers, and the returns per acre are heavier when the crop is harvested. Farming land in the Western States runs from $60 to $150 an acre and up. whereas equally good soil may be purchased in Canada for $8 to $15 per * acre, within easy reach of a shipping point, and much of this is available for free homesteading. The quality of the Canadian No. 1 hard wheat cannot be beaten, and the returns to the acre are several bushels better than on this side of the line; the soil and climate of that country being peculiarly adapted to wheat growing. The fact ia evidently appreciated by the large number of American _, farmers who have in the past two or three years settled in the Canadian West. The agents of the Canadian Government, whose address will be found elsewhere, advise us that for the fiscal year 1904-6, the records chow that 43,543 Americans settled in Canada, and in 1905-6 the number reached 57,796. From all of which, It appears that at present, there is a good thing in farming in Western Canada, and that the American tanner ii not slow to avail himself of it, Depew Writes Reminiscences.

It lis claimed that Colorado has the test • state organization for the pro- *> taction of children and animals, in that it accomplishes under its system— covering a large field—more re* 3ults for the money expended than any other humane organization In the country^ The Colorado Humane society, without losing its existence or identity as a corporate body, was in 1901 constituted by act of legislature "The State Board of Child and Animal Protection." The governor, attorney- general and superintendent of public instruction are ex-offtcio members of the board of directors. The state appropriates $2,500 to $3,000 a year, and other receipts make up a revenue for the society of about $5,- 000. Seven hundred and fourteen agents are scattered throughout the state, remote parts being looked after about as well as in the city of Denver. Perhaps In no other state is serious effort made to enforce the law for child and animal protection in small communities and In rural districts the same as in the cities. The Nebraska society has decided to ask the next legislature for a state board of child and animal protection. Montana has one modeled on the Colorado plan, with the essential difference that its officers are political —appointees, amU as a consequence, TEN YEAR1 OP PAIN.

Eighj western states have specified laws" in relation to the docking of horses' tails, viz.: Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota, Utah, Colorado, Washington, Oregon and California.

In Nebraska a reward of »50 is offered for evidence that will eenvict of this offense.

There is one, claimed to be the only one in the world, built of that material. This structure is located in the lepartment of Palenque, state of Chiapas, republic of Mexico. ' TjgMs district lies in the extreme southwestern part of Mexico, near the boundary lln^i "SE of Guatemala. The mahogany bridge is constructed entirely of that valuable wood except some iron braces and nails that are necessary. The bridge spans the Rio Michol and its total length, including approaches, exceeds 150 feet, while the width is 15 feet. It is used by both teams and pedestrians and, though somewhat rude and primitive in construction, it is very substantial. None of the timbers of the flooring were sawed, for In that region there are no sawmills, but were hewn and split. In that section of old Mexico there are several very large rubber plantations, and mahogany trees are quite commoni In clearing away the tropical forests for setting out the young rubber trees the mahogany growths are also cut down and removed. As this wood is quite abundant, some of it was used in building the bridge.— American Inventor. Wrong Method of Teaching. Consul Paul Nash, of Venice, writes: "Hundreds of well-educated Americans annually pass through Venice and, although probably nine-tenths of them have had several years of Instruction in a European language, not onetenth are capable of speaking a dozen connected words.of anything but English. Even college graduates, fresh from prize-winning in French or German, are generally unable to speak either language, although capable of writing an excellent thesis on their history, philology, syntax and literature. This is the result of teaching French and German in much the same way that Latin and Greek are taught" NEW YEAR'S CALLS. «f* V » Safety Assured.

Twenty-five years ago the custom of making New Year's calls was a delightful one for all concerned, until some of the boys got more "egg-nog" or "apple-jack" than they could successfully carry. Then the ladles tried to be charitable and the gentlemen tried to be as chivalrous as ever and stand up at the same time. If anyone thinks there has not been considerable improvement made in the last quarter of a century, in Uie use of alcoohllc beverages, let him stop to consider, among other things,, the fact that the old custom of New Year's calls and the genteel tippling is nearly obsolete. The custom of calling on one's friends, however, at the beginning of the new year, is a good habit, and another good habit to start at that time Is the use of well-made Poatnm instead of coffee or spirits. A Staten Island doctor has a sensible daughter who has set Postum before her guests as a good thing to drink at Yule Tide, and a good way to begin the New Year. Her father writes: "My daughter and I have used Postum tor some time past, and wo feel sure it contains wholesome food material.'

I had spells of vomiting, could not eat, in fact, did not dare to, I had sneb distress after eating. My stomach was filled with gas which caused me awful agony. The backache I suffered was at times almost unbearable and the least exertion made my heart beat so fast that I could hardly breathe. But the worst of all was the splitting neuralgia headache which never left me for seven weeks. About this time I had had several numb spells. My limbs would be cold and without any feeling and tho inoMt deathly sensations would coine over mo.

THE PRESIDENT'S UNCKNEY, MICHIGA* Success and Failure. Peary failed to reach the North Pole, but he got nearer to that elusive proposition than any other of the numerous explorers who have tried to penetrate to thit arctic region that has bee* so long an undiscovered country. He Was within 191 miles of the pole, a short distance from the point desired, if the transportation In the frozen north were equal to our own In the matter of speed over good railroads. Peary beat the record of Capt. Cagni of the Italian Duke of Abruz2i expedition by over 50 miles, and is to be praised for his persistency and courage, but, nevertheless, many are asking what particular good has been accomplished by his efforts? Even If he had reached the regions where it is claimed there are 3,000,000 square miles of unoccupied territory, would this have been of any benefit to humanity at large? asks Boston Budget. Would the country have been inhabitable, and if it were, how would intending settlers ever get there through tho icy barriers .that would oppose their progress on all sides? Possibly in the distant future, modern inventiveness might be able to make journeying to the pole comparatively easy, BO that even excursion parties might go there on pleasure trips, but at present this seems to be as little likely of realization as would bo a trip to Mars on a flying machine. However, man is an Inquiring animal, and is always wanting to eat of the tree of knowledge, and if only his curiosity would be gratified by the invasion of the North Pole, there would be some, advancement made in developing' the Bpirit of enterprise without which there is no progress In any acknow- Recommends Legislation on New and Important Subjects, INCOME - INHERITANCE TAX He Believes Such Laws Would Curb Growth of Fortunes to Dangerous Proportions. Hia Views on Negro Question—Asks for Currency Reform, and Shipping Bill-^Would Make Citizens of Japs —Many Other Important Subjects Discussed. Washington, Dee. ?.-The notable features of President Roosevelt's unnuul message to congress are his appeal tor the enactment into law of several bills introduced into congress last winter and spring; his views on the negro problem; the scoring lie gives those whom lie terms "preachers of discontent;" the stand he takes for the control of corporations by the federal government under the interstate commerce clause of the constitution, and his recommendation for an inheritance and income tax law • Many other subjects common to messages of the chief executive are touched upon, hut tho ones mentioned are by far of the gitatest importance. He especially, urges the passage , of tho bill prohibiting corporations from contributing to campaign funds, and also that one which wottid give the government the rlernt of appeal in criminal cases. Of this he says: "Another bill which has just past one house of the congress and which is urgently necessary should be enacted into law is that conferring upon the government the right of appeal in criminal cases on questions of law. This right exists In many of the states; It exists in , ^ , „ A , .. . i t „ . the District of Columbia by act of the ledged practical direction. Science ] congress, it is of course not proposed that In would be benefited by the discovery, if any case a verdict for the denothing else came from it for the prosperity of mankind. Peary has not attained the summit of his ambition, but that will not discourage others from trying to outdo him. His example "will encourage them to venture farther than he did, for as he followed others he will have, no doubt, many successors. The best solace that Peary has In his defeat is the faith that his wife exhibited during his silent absence In his ability to return to her unharmed, even though she knew from experience all the difficulties and dangers of arctic travel. fendant on the merits should be set aside. Recently in one district where the government had indicted certain persons for conspiracy in connection with rebates, the court sustained the defenda n t ' s demurrer; while In another jurisdiction an indictment for conspiracy to obtain rebates has been sustained by the court, convictions obtained under it, and two defendants sentenced to imprisonment. The two cases referred to mav not be in real conflict with each other, but it is unfortunate that there should even be an apparent conflict. At present there is no way by which the government can cause such a conflict, when it occurs, to be solved by an appeal to a higher court; and tho wheels of justice are blocked without any real decision of the question. I can not too strongly urge the passage of the bill in question. A failure to pass will result In sei.ously hampering the government in its effort to obtain justice, especially against wealthy individuals or corporations who do wrong; and may also prevent tho government from obtaining justice for wageworkers who are not themselves able effectively to contest a case where the judgment of an inferior court has been against them. I have speciiically in viow a recent decision by a district Judge leaving railway emplovces without remedy for violation of a "certain socalled labor statute. It seems an absurdity to permit a single district Judge, against what may be the judgment of the immense majority of his colleagues on the bench, to declare a law solemnly enacted by the congress to be •unconstitutional," and then to deny to the government the right to have the supreme court definitely decide the auestion." Injunctions. On the subject of the abolition of Injunctions in labor disputes, he says- "In my last message I suggested the enactment of a law in connection with the issuance of injunctions, attention hav- Physical and mental efficiency and pre- /blf t J r S e m ^ r h a ^ h e 3 r \ i A » ventable ignorance, and urges action i n s injunctions in labor cases should be wholly abolished. It is at least doubtful whether a law abolishing altbgether the use of injunctions in such causes would stand th« test of the courts; in which case of course the legislation would be ineffective. Moreover, I believe it'would can talte p a r t in the t e r t u r e of a h u - man being without h a v i n g his o v n moral n a t u r e p e r m a n e n t l y lowered. Every lynching means Just eo much moral deterioration in nil the children who have a n y k n o w l c d r s of It', and therefore Just so much additional trouble for the next generation of Americans. "Let Justice be both sure and swift; but let It be justice under tho law, and not Ihe wild and crooked savagery of a mob. Capital and Labor. On the subject 'of capital and labor the president takes the agitators of class hatred to task and says "to preach hatred to tho rich man, as such, . . . to seek to mislead and influme to madness honest men whose lives aro hard and who have not tho kind of mental training which will permit them to appreciate tho danger in the doctrines preached is to commit a crime ajalnst the body politic and to be fulse to every worthy nrinelplo and tradition of American national life." Continuing on this subject he says: "Tho plain people who think—the mechanics, farmers, merchants, workers with head or hand, tho men to whom American traditions are dear, who love their country and try to act decently by their neighbors, owe it to themselves to remember that the most d a m a g i n g blow that can he given popular government la to elect an unworthy and sinister a g i t a t o r on a platform of violetK'0 and hvpocrisy. Whenever such an issue is raised in this country nothing can be gained by flinching from It, for in such case democracy is itself on trial, popular selfgovernment under republican forms is Itself on trial. The triumph of the mob is just as evil a t h i n g as the i. 1- umph of the plutocracy, and to have escaped one danger avails nothing whatever if we sucuumb to the other. In the end the honest man,whether rich or poor, .who earns his own living and tries to deal Justly by his fellow.s, has as much to fear from the insincere and unworthy demagog, promising much and performing nothing, or else performing nothing but evil, who would set on the mob to plunder the rich, a& irom the crafty corruptloni.st. who, for his own ends, would permit the common people to be exploited by tho very wealthy. If we ever let this government fall into the hands of men of either of these two classes, we shall show ourselves false to America's past. Moreover, the demagog and eorruptionist often work hand in hand. There are at this moment wealthy reactionaries of such obtuse morality t h a t they regard the public s e r v a n t who prosecutes them when they violate the law. or who seeks to m a k e them bear their proper share of the public burdens, as being even more objectionable t h a n tho violent a g i t a t o r who hounds on the mob to plunder the rich. There Is nothing to choose between such a reactionary and such an a g i t a t o r ; fundamentally they a r e alike in their selfish disregard of the r i g h t s o! others;'"and it is n a t u r a l that they should join in opposition to any movement of which the aim is fearlessly to do exact and even justice to all." competition and reduces former competitors to a position of utter inferiority and subordination. Inheritance and Income Tax. It was expected that the president would refer In some way to his belief in the necessity for the curbing of enormous fortunes, and ho has done so by recommending legislation for both Income and an Inheritance tax. He believes the government should Impose a graduated Inheritance tax, and, If possible, u graduated income tax. He says: "I a m well aware that such a subject as this needs long and careful study in order that tho people may become familiar with what is proposed to be dono, may clearly see the necessity of proceeding with wisdom and self-restraint, and may make up their minds just how far they are willing to go in the matter; while only trained legislators can work out the project in necessary detail. But I feel that In the near future our national legislators should enact a law providing for a graduated Inheritance lax by which a steadilj increasing rate of duty should bo put uj,">n all moneys or other valuables coming by gift, bequest, or devise to any individual or corporation. It may be well to make <.he tax heavy in proportion as the individual benefited is remote of kin, In any event, In my Judgment the pro rata of the tax should increase very heavily with the increase of tho amount left to any one Ind' /Id'.'itl after a certain point has been reached. It Is most desirable t"3 encourage thrift and ambition, and n potent source of thrift and ambition is the desire on tho ipart of tho breadwinner to leave his children well off. This object can be attained by making the tax very small on moderate amounts of property left; because the prime object should be to put a cons t a n t l y increasing burden on the inheritance of those swollen fortunes which It is certainly of no benefit to this country to perpetuate. There can be no question of the ethical propriety of the government thus determining tho conditions upon which any £ift or inheritance should be received, Exactly how far the inheritance tax would, as an incident, have the effect of limiting the transmission• by devisa or gift df the enormous fortunes In question it is not necessary at present to discuss. It is wise that progress in this direction saould be gradual. At ilrst a permanent national inheritance tax, while it mightbe more substantial than any such tax has hitherto been, need not approximate, cither in amount or in the. fvient of the Increase by graduation, to what such a tax should ultimately be. Inheritance Tax Constitutional. National Department of Health. The plea made by Prof. Norton of Yale university for a national department of health is not to be ignored, remarks the Troy Times. Yale has taken up the matter, and other institutions and men of high professional standing are giving attention. A bulletin put forth by Yale's department of social science reminds the Americanj> eople that the four causes of ^waste of human life and energy are preventable death, preventable sickness," preventable conditions of low by the people through the government to check this waste. Prof. Norton asserts that not less than 750,000 lives can be saved in the United States annually by th« employment of proper means, and he puts the economic side of the question in almost startling form. Estimating wages at one dollar per day, which no doubt is far below the average, the professor shows that the yearly loss by illness is considerably over $1,000,000,000, while by the methods proposed at least half this sum could be saved. In an era notable for the economizing of force, tha{ Is a statement to compel serious thought. Railroad Employees* Hours. He asks for the passing of the bll! limiting the ' number of * hours of employment of railroad employes, and classes the measure as a very moderate one. He says the aim of all should be to steadily reduce the number of hours of labor, with a s a goal the general introduction of an eight-hour day, but insists that on the Isthmus of Panama the conditions are so different from what they are here that the introduction of an eight-hour day .on ihe canal would be absurd, and contiaues, "Just about a s absurd as it is, ao far a s the isthmus is concerned, where w'dte labor cannot be employed, to bother aa to whetlwr the work Is done by alien black men or >lien yellow men." He urges the enactment of a drastic child labor law for the t)lBtrlct of ColumWa and the territories, and a federal investigation of the subject of child and female labor throughout tlte country. He reviews the work of the commission appointed to Investigate labor conditions In tho coal fields of Pennsylvania in 1902, and refera to the wish of the commission "that the state and federal governments should -provide the machinery for what may be called the compulsory investigation of controversies between employers and employes when they arise." Control of Corporations. A considerable portion of the message is devoted to the subject of federal control of corporations in. what he refers to the passage at the last session of the rate, meat inspection and food laws, and says that alt of these have already justilled their enactment, but recommends the amendment of the meat inspection law so as to put dates on the labels of meat products, and also to place the cost of inspection on the packers rather than on the government. (Continuing on ' this subject of the control of corporations by the federal government he apys: "It cannot too often be repeated that experience has conclusively shown the impossibility of securing by the actiora of nearly half a hundred (liferent .state legislatures anything bi't ineffective chaos in the way of dealing with the great corporations whl«*h do not operate exclusively within the limits of any one state. In some method, whether by a national license law or in other fashion, we must exercise, and that at an early date,' a far more complete control than at Lowest Telegraph Rates. Spelling reform has had a new and Important development in a direction which no one has heretofore thought of. In Europe messages are charged for according to the number of letters, instead of words', as in this country. All trans-Atlantic messages from America are charged for by letter in accordance with the European system. The adoption of spelling reform will cause a modification of the schedules of the international telegraphic companies, and the consequent saving of money. For example, "thru" will have to be charged for as four letters instead of six, as formerly, and so on through the entire list. It will cause no trouble to the operators, because they for years have been using the shortest form by which vrovOs could be spelled without possibility of missympathy with criminals to weaken our hands in upholding tho law; and if men seek to destroy life or property by mob violence there should be no impairment of the power of the courts to deal with them in the most summary and effective way possible. But so far as possible the abuse of the power should be provided against by some such law as I advocated last year. The Negro Problem. The negro problem Is given considerable attention, after calling attention to the fact that no section of the country la free from faults, and that no section h a s occasion to Jeer a t the shortcomings of any other section, he turns to the sub- Je^V,°f lynchings, and especially as appiled to the negro of the south. He says the greatest existing cause for mob law is the perpetration by the blacks of. the crime of rape, a crime which he terms even worse than murder. He quotes the admonitions to the white people spoken by Gov. Candler, of Georgia, some years ago, and by Gov. Jelks, of Alabama, recently,, and then says: "Every colored man should realize t h a t t h e w o r s t enemy of his race is the negro criminal, and above all the neg r o criminal w h o commits the dreadful crime of rape; and it should be felt a s in the highest degree an offenBe a g a i n s t the whole country, and against t h e colored race In particular, for a colored man to fail to help the officers of the law in h u n t i n g down with all possible earnestness and seal every tuch ir.iamous offender. Moreover, In my Judgment, the crime of rape should •always be p'intshed with death, as Is the case wit'., murder; assault with Int e n t to .omi-iit rape should be made a capital erlir v a t least in the discretion of the l o u r t ; and provision should bo made Dy which tho punishment may follow Immediately upon the heels of the offence- while the trial should be so couduetr-6 that the victim need not be wantonly shamed while giving testimony, and that tho least possible publicity shall he Riven to tho details. The members of' the white race on the other hand should understand t h a t every lynching represents by Just so much a loosening of the bands of civtake. Consequently they will have 1 ^ ¾ ¾ ¾ ^ ^ . _ , ._ .. „„,.4U present over these great corporabe wrong altogether to prohibit tho use tions—a control that will among other of injunctions. It is criminal to permit things prevent the evils of excessive nothing new to learn. the community all tho foul and tfvil overcapitalization, and that v.-ill compel the disclosures, by each big corporation of its'stockholders and of its properties and business, whether owned ''irectly or thru subsidiary or affiliated corporations. This Will tend to put a stop to the securing of inordinate prol'ty by favored Individuals- at the expense whether of the general public, tho stockholders, or the wageworkers. Our effort should be not so much to prevent consolidation as such, but so to supervise and control it as to see that it results in no harm to the people. The reactionary or ultraconservatlve apologists for the misuse of wealth assail the effort to secure such control as a step toward socialism. As a matter of fact it is these reactionaries and ultraconservatlves who are themselves mofJt potent in increasing socialistic feeling. One of the most efficient methods of averting the consequences of a dangerous agitation, which is 80 per cent, wrong, la to remedy the 20 per cent. of evil aa to which the agitation is well founded. The best way to avert the very undesirable move, for the governmental ownership of railways is to secure by the government on behalf of the people a s a whole such adequate control and regulation of the great interstate common e a » lers «us will do away with the evils which give rise to the agitation against them. So the proper antidote to the dangerous and wicked agitation against the men of wealth as such Is to secure by proper legislation and executive action the abolition of. the grave abuse* which actually do obtain In con-1 nection with the business use of wealth under our. present system—or rather no system—of failure to exercise any adequate control at all. Some persons speak as it the exercise of Buch governmental control would do away *vlth the freedo; . of individual initiative and dwarf individual effort. This Is not a fact. It would bo a veritable calamity to fall to put a premium upon individual initiative, individual capacity and effort; upon the energy, character and foresight which it Is ho Important to encourage In the Individual. But as a matter of fact tho deadening and degrading effect of pure socialism, and especially of Its extreme form com.wmism, nnd the destruction or individual character which th^y would bring about, are in part achieved by the wholly unregulated competition which results in a single Individual or corporflion risiiig a t the expense of all others i creatures who dwell therein, tfo man ] ffi1 w 7 o ? its rise VffictS^Sy chocks ,.1 "This species of tax has again and again been imposed, altho only temporarily, by the national government. It was first imposed by the act of July 6, 1707, when the makers of the Constitution were alive and at the head of affairs. It was a graduated tax; tho small in amount, the rate was increased with the amount left to any Individual, exceptions being made in the case of certain close kin. A similar tax was again imposed by the act of July 1, 1862; a minimum sum of $1,000 in personal property being excepted from taxation, the tax then becoming progressive according to the remoteness of kin. The war-revenue act of June 13, 18S8, provided for an Inheritance tax on any sum exceeding the value of $10,1)00, the rate of tax Increasing both in accordance with the amounts left and in accordance with the legatee's remoteness of kin. The supreme court has held that the succession tax imposed at the time of the civil war was not a direct tax but an impose of excise whlcU was both constitutional and' valid. More recently the court, In an opinion, delivered by Mr. Justice White, which contained an ex* ceedingly able and elaborate discussion of the powers of the congress to impose death dutiea, sustained the constitutionality of the Inheritance t a x feature of the war-/evenue act of l£9K Is Income Tax Constitutional? "In lt« Incidents, aiWt apoft tram the main purpose of faislljg' revenue, an income tax stands o*» »n ,*irtlrqly' different foottug from an ishefltino* tax, because It involves no Question" of the perpetuation of fortune* swollen to an unhealthy,, .glse- The question is in its essence a Question of the proper adjustment of burdens to benefits. As the law now stands it is undoubtedly difficult to devlso a national Income ta-x which shall be constitutional. But whether It is absolutely impossible Is another question; and if possible it is most certainly desirable. The Jlrst purely income tax law wfts past by the congress in 1S61, but the most important law "dealing witli the subject was that of 189-(. This Che court held to be unconstitutional. "The Question is undoubtedly very intricate, delicate, and troublesome, The decision of the court w a s only reached by one majority. It is the law of the land, and, of course, is excepted as such and loyally obeyed by all good citizens. Nevertheless, the hesitation evidently felt by the court as a whole in coming to a conclusion, when considered together with the previous decisions on the subject, may p e r h a p s indicate the possibility of devising a constitutional income-tax law which shall substantially aco.complish the results aimed at. The difficulty of amending the constl. utron is so great t h a t only real necessity can justify a resort thereto.' Every effort should be made in dealing with this subject, a s with >;ie subject of the proper control by ine national government over the use of corporate wealth in interstate business, to devise legislation which without such action shall a t t a i n the desired end; but if this fails, there will ultimately be no alternative to a constitutional amendment." Agricultural Interests. He appeals for every encouragement that the congress can give to the 'agricultural interests of the country. fie points to the good that is being done by the various forms of grange organization!, and says: "Several factors must cooperate in tho improvement of the farmer's condition He must have the chance to be educated In the widest possible sense—In the sense which keeps ever in view tho intimate relationship between the theory of education, and the facts of life. In all education we should widen our aims. It is a good thing to produce a certain number of trained scholars and students; but the education superintended by the state must seek rather to produce a hundred good citlsens than merely one scholar, and It must be turned now and then from the class book to the Btudy of the great book of nature itself. This Is especially true of the farmer, as has been pointed out again and again by all observers most competent to pass practical Judgment on the problems of our country life. All students now realize that education mus". seek to train the executive powers of yjung peoplo and to confer more real significance upon the phrase "dignity of lafcir," and to prepare the puplla so that in addition to each developing in the highest degree his individual capacity for work, they may together help create a right public opinion, and show In many ways social and cooperative spirit Organization has become necessary in the business world; and it has accomplished much for good in the world of labor. H is no less necessary for farmers. Such a movement ns the grange movement Is good in Itself, and is capable of a well-nigh infinite further extension for good so long as it is kept to its own legitimate business. The benefits to be derived by the association of farmers for mutual advantage are partly economic and partly socio:ou'ical. Marriage and Divorce.

One of the great embarrassments attending the performance of our international obligations is the fact that the statutes of the United States government arc entirely inadequate.

The mob of a single city may at any. time perform acts of lawless vlolrnco against nome class of foreigners whi^h would plunge us into war.

The entire power and the whole duty to protect tho offending city or Uie offending community lies in the hunds of the United States government. It la tinthinkable that we should continue a policy und^r whifh a given locality may bs allowed to commit a crime ogatast a friendly nation, and tho United States government limited, not to preventing the commission of the crime, but.

His face relaxed a little, and he concluded almost quizzically: "Was not Satan hurled from high heaven tor resisting authority?" Sh9 posted, caught him by the fapela of his coat and prettily tried to shake htm. "Now, now! stop it at once, and come to the house. I've been tending your fatter and mother, and I'm going to tend you. What you need directly Is food. Your look may be holy, but I prefer full cheeks. Not another word until you have eaten every crumb I put before you." With an air of captor, daintily fierce, etie led him toward the house and up to the door, which she pushed open before him. "Come softly, your mother may be etill asleep—no, your father is talking --listen!" ' A querulous voice, rough with strong feeling, came from the inner room. "Here, I tell you, is the prophecy of Joseph to prove it, away back in 1832—»' He broke off, for the girl came leading in the son, who, as soon as he saw the white-haired old man with his open book, sitting beside the wasted woman on the bed, flew to them with a glad cry. Ther embraced him and smoothed and patted him, tremulously, feebly, with broken thanks for his safe return. Tbe mother at last fell back upon her pillow, her eyes shining with ,the Joy Of'a great relief, while the father was seized with a fit of coughing that crueHy racked his* gaunt frame and left him weak but smiling. The girl had been placing food upon the table. "Come, Joel," she urged, "you must eat—we have all breakfasted, so you must sit alone, but we shall watch you." She pushed him Into the chair and filled his plates hi spito of his protests. "And now we must be about our preparations for the journey. The time is ahort—who is that?" He sprang to the door. Outside, quick steps were heard approaching. The girl, who had risen in some confusion, stood, blushing and embarrassed before him. The mother rose feebly on her elbow to reassure him. "'Tis Capt, Girnway, laddie. Have no alarm—ho has befriended us. But for him we should have been put out two days ago, without shelter and without care, Ho let us be housed here until you should come." Thoro was a knock att the door, but Joel stood with his back to it. The words of SetU Wright were running roughshod through his mind. He Iaoked aharply at Prudence. "A mobocrat—our enemy—and you have taken favors from him—a minion of the devil?—shame!" Tho girl looked up. "He was kind; you don't realize that he has probably saved their lives. Indeed, you must let him in and thank him." "Not I!" The mother Interposed hurriedly. , "Yes, yes, laddie! You know not how highhanded they have been. They expelled all but us, and some they have maltreated shamefully. This one has been kind to us. Open the door." "I dare not face him—I may not contain myself!'* T W knock was repeated more loudly. The girl went up to him and put her hands on his shoulders to draw him away. "Be reasonable," she pleaded,' in low tone*, "and above all,, be polite to hllL* She twt htm gently aside and drew back-the door. On the threshold smite? the young captain. His cap was doffed, and his left hand rested easily on the hilt of his sword. He ste«>ed inside a* one sure of his welcome "Good morning, Miss Prudence, good morning, Mr. Rao, good morning, madam—good morning—" I fto looked questioning]}- at the etrwtgra*. Prudence stepped forward. "1*1» i9 #»el Rae, Capt. Girnway." TfceV bowed, somewhat stlfflj. Each. was dark. Each had a face to attract women. But the captain was at peace with the world* ,neatly uniformed, well fed, clean-shaven, smiling, pleasant to look upon, while the other was unshaven, hollow-cheeked, gaunt, roughly dressed, a thing that had been ihunted and was now under ban. Each was at once sensible of the contrast between them, and each was at once affected by it: the captain to a greater jauntiness, a more effusive affability; the other to a stonier sternness. "I am glad to know you have come, Mr. Rae. Your people have worried a little, owing to the unfortunate Circumstances in which they have been placed." "I—I am obliged to you, sir, in their behalf, for your kindness to my father and mother and to Miss Corson here." "You an. N thousand times welcome, sir. Can >;r« tell me when you will wish to cross the river?" "At the very earliest moment teat God and the mob will let us. -/To-morrrw morning, I hope." "This has not been agreeable to me, believe me—" "Far less so to us, you may be sure? but we shall be content again when we can get away from all your whiggery, democratism, devilism, mobism!" He spoke wlih rising tones, and the other Hushed noticeably about the temples. "Have your wagons ready to-morrow morning, tflen, Mr. Rae—at eight? Very well, I shall see that you are protected to the ferry. There has been so much of that tone of talk, sir, Mailed back at them. She went ahead through the door oV which they had first entered, and out Into the garden at the back of the house, He remembered, as he followed her, that since he had arrived that morning tme had always been leading him, directing him as if to a certain end, with the air of meaning presently to say something of moment to him. She led him to a rustic double chair under the heavily fruited boughs of an apple tree, and made him sit down. She began with, a vivaciouB playfulness, poorly assumed, to hide her real feeling. "Now, sobersides, it must end— this foolishness of yours " She stopped, waiting for some question of his to help her. But he said nothing, though she could feel the burning of his eyes upon her. "This superstitious folly, you know," she blurted out, looking up at him in sudden desperation. "Tell me what you mean—you must know I'm impatient." She essayed to be playful again, pouting her dimpled face near to his that he might kiss her. But he did not seem to see. He only waited. "Well—this religion—this Mormon ism " She shot one swift look at him, then ' went on quickly. "My people have left the church, and—I—too—they found things in Joseph Smith's teachings that seemed bad to them. They went to Springfield. I would have gone, too, but 1 told them I wanted firft to see you and—and see if you wowld not come "Her Coal Is Zionf Not Babylon—Re-member That!" that some of our men have resented it." He turned pleasantly to Prudence. "And you, Miss Prudence, you will be leaving Nauvoo for Springfield, 1 suppose. As you go by Carthage,' I shall wish to escort you that far myself, to make sure of your safety." The lover turned fiercely, seizing the girl's wrist and drawing her toward him before she could answer. "Her goal is Zlon, not Babylon, sir —remember that!" She stepped hastily between them. "We will talk of that to-morrow, captain," she said, quickly, and added: "You may leave us now, for we have much to do here In making ready for the start." "Until to-morrow morning, then, at eight." He bowed low over the hand she gave him, gracefully saluted the others, and was gone. CHAPTER IV A Pair Apostate. She stood flushed and quick-breathing when the door had shut, lie bending toward her with dark inquiry in his eyes. Before she spoke, he divined that under her nervousness some resolution lay stubbornly fixed. "Let us speak alone," she said, in a low voice. Then, to the old people, "Joel and I will go into the garden awhile to talk. Be patient." "Not for long, dear; our eyes aye aching for him." • "Only a little while," antt she with us—at least for awhile, not taking the poor old father and mother through all that wretchedness. They consented to let me stay with your parents^on condition that Capt. Girnway would protect them and me. He —he—is very kind—and had known U3 since last winter and had seen me —us—several times. 1 hadn't the heart to tell your father; he was so set on going to the new Zlon, but you will come, won't you?" "Wait a moment!" He put a hand upon her arm as if to arrest her speech. "You daze me. Let me think." She looked up at him, wondering at his iace, for it showed strength and bitterness and gentleness all in one look—and he was suflering. She put her hand upon his, from an instinct of pity. The touch recalled him. "Now—for the beginning." He spoke with aroused energy, a little wistful smile softening the strain of his face. "You were wise to giv9 me food, else f couldn't have solved this mystery. To the beginning, then: You/Prudence Corson, betrothed to me these three years and more; you have been buried in the waters of baptism and had your washings and anointings in the temple of the most high God. Is it not so? Your eyes were anointed that they might be quick to see, your ears that they might be apt at hearing, your mouth that you might with wisdom speak the words of eternal life, and your feet that they might be swift to run in the ways of the Lord. You accepted thereby the truth that the ange! of God had delivered to Joseph Smith the sealing keys of power. You accepted the glorious articles of. the new covenant. You .were about to be sealed up to me foretime and eternity, Now—I am lOBt—what is it?—your father and mci^sr have left the church, and because of what?" "Because of bad things, because cf this doctrine they practice—this wickedness of spiritual wives, plural wive*. Think of it, Joel—that if 1 were your wife you might take another." ^ "I need not think of it. Surely you know my love. You know I could not do that. Indeed I have heard at last that this doctrine so long gossiped of is a true one. But I have been away and am not yet learned in its mysteries. But this much I know— and it is the very cornerstone of my life: Peter, James and John ordained Joseph Smith here on this earth, and Joseph ordained the twelve. All other churches have been established by the wisdom or folly of man. Ours is the only one on earth established by direct revelation from God. It has a priesthood, and that priesthood is a power we must..reverence ^ n d obey, no matter what may be its commands. When the truth is taught me of this doctrine you speak of, I shall see it to be right for those to whom it is ordained. And meantime, outside of my own little life—my love for you, which would be always single— I can't measure the revealed will of God with my little moral foot-rule. Joseph was endowed with the open vision, He saw God face to face and heard His voice. Can the standards of society in its present corruption measure and pass upon the revelations of so white-souled a man?'' "I believe he was not white-souled." she replied, in a kind, animated way, as one who was bent upon saving him from error. * "I told you I k»jew why you were sent away on mission. It was because fbu were my accepted lover—and your white-souled Joseph Smith wanted me for himself." "I can't believe it—you couldn't know such a thing"—his faith made a brave rally-—"but even so, if ho sought you, why, the more honor to you—and to me, if you still clung to me." "Listen. I was afraid to tell you before— ashamed—but I told my people, It's three years ago. I was 17. It was just after we had become engaged. My people were then strong in the faith, as you know. One morning after you had left for the East, Brigham Young and Heber Kimball came to our house for me. They said tho Prophet had long known me by sight, and wished to talk with me. Would I go with them to visit him and he would bless and counsel me? Of course I was flattered. I put on my prettiest frock and fetchingest bonnet and set off with them, after mamma had said yes. On the way they kept asking me if I was willing to do all the Prophet required. I said I was sure of it, ^thinking they meant to be good and worshipful. Then they would ask if I was ready to take counsel, and they said, 'Many things are revealed unto us in these last days that the world would scoff at,' but that it had been given to them to know all the mysteries of the Kingdom. Then they said, 'You will see Joseph and he will tell you what you are to do.'" He was listening with a serious, confident eagerness, as if he knew she could say nothing to dim the Prophet's luster. "When we reached the building where Joseph's store was. they led rae up-stairs to a small room- and sent down to the store for the Prophet. When he came up they introduced me and left me alone in tbe little room with hiov '"heir actions had seemed queer :> me, but I remembered that this man had talked face to face with God, so I tried to fsel better. But all at once he stood before me and asked me to be Mf. -wife. Think of it! I was so fright* ened! I dared not say no, he looked at me so—I can't tell you how; but I said it would not be lawful. He said, 'Yes, Prudence, I have had a revelation from God that it is lawful and right for a man to have as many, wives as he wants—for as it was In the days of Abraham, so it shall be in these days. Accept me and I shall take you straight to the celestial Kingdom. Brother Brigham will marry us here, right now, and you can go home to-night and keep it secret from 4 your parents if you like/ Then I said, 'But I am betrothed to Joel Rae, the son of Giles Rae, who li away on mission.' 'I know that,' ha said—'I sent him away, and anyway you will be safer to marry me. You will then be absolutely, sure of your celestial reward, for in the next world, you know, I am to have powers, thrones, and dominions, while Brother Joel is very young and has not been tried in the Kingdom. Ho may fall away and then you would be lost.*" The man in him now was struggling with his faith, and he seemed about to Interrupt her, but she went on excitedly. "I said I would not want to do anything of the kind without deliberation. He urged me to have it over, trying to kiss me, and saying he knew it would be right before God; that if there was any sin in it ho would take it upon himself. He said, 'You know I have the keys of the Kingdom, and whatever I bind on earth is bound in heaven. Come,' he said, 'nothing ventured, nothing gained. Let mo call Brother Brigham to seal us, and you shall be a star in my crown for ever.' "Then I broke down and cried, for I was so afraid, and he put his arms around me, but I pushed away, and after awhile I coaxed him to give me until the next Sabbath to think it over, promising on my life to say not one word to any person. I never let him see me alone again, you may be sure, and at last when other awfut tales were told about him here, of wickedness and his drunkenness—he told in the pulpit that he had been drunk, and that he did it to keep them from worshipping him as a God —I saw he was a bad, common man, and I told my people everything, and soon my father was denounced for an apostate. Now, sir, what do you say?" When she finished he was silent for a time. Then he spoke, very gently, but with undaunted firmness.' "Prudence, dearest, I have told you that this doctrine is 'new to me. I do not yet know its justification. But | that I shall see it to be sanctified j after they have taught me, this 1 know as certainly as I know that Joseph Smith diig up the golden plates of Mormon and Moroni on the hill of Cumorah when the angel of the LdW moved him. It will be sanctified for those W*AD choose it, I mean. You know I could never choose It for myself. But as for others, I must not question. I know only too well that eternal salvation for ,me depends upon my accepting manfully and unquestioningly the authority of the temple priesthood." "But I know Joseph was not a food man." "I believe with all my heart Joseph was good; but even if not—we have never pretended that he was anything more than a prophet of God. And was not Moses a* murderer when God called him to be a prophet?" "And this awful journey into a horrid desert. Why must you go? Surely there are other ways of salvation." She hesitated a moment. "1 have been told that going to heaven is like going to mill. If your wheat is good, the miller will never ask which way you Came." "Child, child, some one has tampered with you." She reiorted quickly. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Unhooking the Elusive Eel Ingenious Angler Asserts Hypnotic Method Is Best. It isn't so hard to catch an eel. Not infrequently you will land one when you are fishing for something else. But getting him off the hook without having your line tangled and tied into innumerable knots—aye, that's the rub! When Izaak Walton wrote his treatise on the gentle art of angling, he overlooked the eel.. Yet the possibilities of this squirming fish in developing patience in the fisherman are infinite. The average angler, when he has hooked one, can do nothing more than rub his hand in the dirt till It is rough with grime, seize tho eel by the neck and club him to death. Meanwhile his line is all snarls and tangles. But an ingenious angler, with the nervous system of the eel in xalnd. has discovered a better way. Tbe eel, properly handled, may be soothed and put into an immediate state of calm simply by rubbing him gently on the spinal column with n. match or small stick. Indeed, no one who has hpynotized a crab by rubbing between the eyes will doubt for a moment thai tbe eel may somewhat similarly be put to sleep.' It is the only effective way to de« tach an eel from the hook. Try it! Male Teachers Decreasing. The male teachers in the United States are steadily decreasing, as shown by statistics.

I/>uis Globe-Democrat. "But how many people nave tried this method of Insuring a prompt awakening at a given hour. In the tnornlng only to find their rest throughout the njs'jt •.Hit'ji'bsi i i i mwisy. "The brain will USTWU? tMpond to tha will and awaken one in the morning near the desired hour under any circumstances, but to prevent the unbroken, uneasy sleep the adoption, of only A very simple dtvloo is necessary. The laAt thing before getting into bed take a watch or clock and turn the hands to the hour at which one wishes to rise and gaze at this Just long enough to fix the hour firmly on the retentive memory. Then if no other absorbing thoughts Intervene between that and the moment one is locked in slumber the night's rest will be easy and unbroken, and promptly at the hour in the morning, as a rule, one will find oneself released from sleep and wide awake. There is no need to repeat It over and over In the mind.

The old law books are curious reading and give some funny ideas of what kings and parliaments thought they could do. Henry VIII., for example, passed "an act for the abolishing of diversity of opinion in certain articles concerning Christian religion." It staggers one to think of how many acts wonld be required tod a? "to abolish diversity of opinion" in religious matters. It Is not generally known In Scotland, the home of football, that it is still illegal to play football. Au act passed In 1424 and never repealed says, "No man shall play at football under a pain of BO shillings." But Scotch ladies with a tendency to overdressing are In no belter position. Their overdressing is still Illegal. By an act of James. II. restriction as to dress is laid down, and only the wife of a bailie or uidermau is allowed to wear **clotbes of silk, scarlet gowns." No woman is to come to kirk or market with her faoj mussated (or veiled), that she may be known. In the relgu of CJeorge III. a bill was introduced for the improvement of th * rvetrop l^tan watch.

EVENTS NOTED TRAIN WRECK AT O T T I R i - A K i INJURE8 TWENTY PAS8ENGER8. BROKEN RAIL CAUSED IT Escape From Death Wae Miraculous, and the, Number Injured Lucky to 80 Escape, The Injured. The smoking car, cafe car and parlor car of Michigan Central southbound train No. 206 were thrown Into ja deep ditch two miles north of Otter £ake at 8:30 o'clock Thursday night by ft broken rail, while the train was running at the rate of 40 miles per hour. Over 20 persons in the crowded cars were more or less Injured, and It Is considered miraculous that many were not killed. A strange feature of the accident is that the heavy engine and tender, the baggage and express car and the mall car passed safely over ,tbe break, while the lighter cars were thrown to one side. The injured are: E. H. Lake, Detroit; leg broken; taken to his home. A. R. Beattie, Detroit; left shoulder blade bruised, face badly lacerated; internal injuries feared.

Attorney General Bird has given an opinion that it is unlawful to teach the trades of cigarmaking, bropm making or granite cutting in the penal institutions of the state. He was guided by a recent decision of the supreme tcourt, holding that the constitution prohibits teaching a convict a mechanical trade, except one in which the largest portion of the product Is not manufactured in the state. Work of the kind designated will stop In the prisons as soon as the men who know the trades leave the institutions. Until he has further information regarding the state's chief supply, the attorney general is as yet unable to say whether the making of reed furniture can be continued to be taught in the Ionia reformatory. JAPOPHOBIA. California** Wild Over Prt*lde»t'i Plain Talk. President Roosevelt has stirred * storm in California, which is felt from end to end along the Pacific coast, by the statements in his message on the Japanese. Among the masses of the people, and particularly among the labor unions, the most bitter feeling has been aroused, and it is predicted freely that, unless something intervenes to change the sentiment, he has driven California, if not the entire Pacific coast, from the Republican ranks. The newspapers are very bitter in their criticisms, especially so the Chronicle. The president la excoriated for his threat to use troops, and he openly Is charged with deliberately misstating th« position taken by the authorities of Ban Francisco and the state. Hints are openly given that such action would result in attempts to Impeach Mr. Roosevelt. Charges ar« made that he is unfair, even untruthful/ in his message statements in reference to the situation in San Francisco. It is declared by President AUman, of the San Francisco board of education, that no matter what action i* taken in the courts in reference to California's separate school law, even if it is declared unconstitutional, the board will not recede from its stand in barring Japanese students from white schools. Morton Wants the Money. John Morton, of New York, has garnisheed the $1,250 held by Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Ward, of Grand Rapids, since the notorious water deal. Ward had announced his intention of returning it to Frederick H. Garman. The story of the delivery of the packtige of money by Garman to "Billy" Leonard in the Livingston hotel in 1901, during the trial of Lant K. Salsbury for conspiracy in the water deal, is still fresh in the public mind. As no one could be found who gave the money to Leonard, its ownership could not be established, and Garman, who was ona ci (he people's witnesses, turned It over to the prosecuting at- , torjiey, who has held it ever since. Charges Blackmail. Jacob L. Hisey, treasurer and general manager of the Muskegon Milling Co., for whom a warrant was issued charging him with obtaining $5,000 under false pretenses and about whom grave rumors are circulated, concerning his handling of the mills, returned to Muskegon Wednesday morning after traveling 12 hours. It Is believed he was in Canada. He was arraigned before Justice Oosterbaan, in whos>w court the warrant was issued. He says it is a blackmailing scheme. In a statement to the press, Hisey said: "I was Informed of this matter at noon Tuesday by telephone and started at ouce for Muskegon in order to meet the charge of Charles A. Kerr. This man bought the stock referred to, after he had made a careful inspection of the affairs of the company and as late as November 15 he wrote me that he was entirely satisfied. "When he came to Muskegon I refused to take his money^for the stock until after he had worked five weeks and had an opportunity to study tho situation. If the loss is anything like the amount given out by the other officials of the company, some one has been speculating while I have been away trying to regain my health, which has been undermined by my work at the mill." Hisey stood mute when arraigned. A plea of not guilty was entered by his attorney and Hisey will be examined December 13. Bonds in the sum of $2,- OOO were furnished. In setting the time for the examination a week away the affairs of the Muskegon Milling Co. will have been thoroughly sifted. George A. Hume, secretary of the milling company, said that there is a shortage of about $40,000 and that an investigation of the books by experts will determine just when and when the money was lost. w Jaenogrodtki Caas^ •'- Chief of Police Murphy and Prosecutor Orr were denied extradition papers for Naum Jasnogrodski, wanted .JftflWUCiti: P* a charge pf getting $1,- 400 from Bernard Sempliner, a tailor, on alleged false pretenses. Gov. Higgins, of New York, ruled that there was merely an exchange of notes, and that no tirime was Involved in the alleged crooke*' transaction. The local officials are befng criticised for taking the junket, as Sempliner has sent an attorney and the presence of the qL facials la regarded as unnecessary, * It Is said that Jasnogrodski and the relatives of bis bride whom he married will pay up all his indebtedness, about $2,500, but that Sempliner will be th* last to recover. How School Money Goes. The department of public instruction is getting after more school district officers who do not comply with the law, The'efforts of the department to protect the primary school funds are not sporadic, but are directed to all the dlstrW<* tvbpfp there are irregularities. Chief Clerk A. Hamlin Smith and A-> ...n; .vuonify General Thomas A. Lawler have visited Lake county, where peculiar conditions have existed. In district No. 2 of Elk township there has been a district quarrel of long standing. Two sets of officers claimed the right to conduct the affairs of the district and each maintained a school. The old otflcers had possession of the funds and spent them to hire a teacher. A court finally decided that the new officers had a legal right to control the district and rendered a judgment against the old officers for $171 which had been spent by them unlawfully. Although nearly two years have elapsed since the decree of the court the money has not been pa'.d over and the state's officers have obtained the promissory notes of the old officers for the amount due. In district No. 3 of Dover township, Lake countv, certain alleged irregularities of the officers were investigated Xo action lias been taken. MICHIGAN BREVITIES.

Green said to his servant one morning: " 'James, I have left my mess boots out, I want them soled/ "'Yes sir,' the servant answered. "The major, dressing for dinner that night, said again: "4 I suppose, James, that you did as I told you about those boots?' "James laid 35 cents on the bureau. " 'Yes, sir,1 said he, 'and this is all I could get for them; though the corporal who bought 'em said he'd have given half a dollar if pay day hadn't been so far off.'" Mrs. Wlnslow's Soothing Syrup.

Gov,/Warner^ will urge upon the legislature in hisTfbrthcomJhg message that th«l problem of employment for , oonvlcts in ;tbfi atate penitentiaries be •ol«$4 by the manufacture of binder *, twine. Returning from Chicago he vis- ,' ited the Indiana penitentiary in Michigan City, where he saw a practical demonstration of its manufacture by cotfvjata. t; > i *•..' He.ireport^ that the Indiana institution undersells the twine trust and Hells' its product entirely within the state,- resulting in a big saving to farmers. In car lots it sells twine at 8½ cents per pound and 9 cents in 50 pound packages. The trust gets 11 merits. The raw material costs from 6½ to cents to 8½ cents per pound and the cost of manufacture has averaged 1½ cents per pound. Each convict has earned bO cents a day for the state. It is believed that Gov. Warner will go so fax aft to u rge a considerable appropriation for the purchase of machinery and raw material and that he will set about solving the convict labor question with his full vigor. . Prefer Burial. Jackson prison convicts have begun a movement for the burial of prisoners who die in the institution and .to prevent their bodies going to Ann Arbor to come under the dissectors' knives. Charles Farr, an-habitual horse thief, who died of pneumonia, was the first beneficiary of the desire of the convicts that their 'bodies escape the dissecting table and with the money secured fTom five-cent subscriptions from each convict and contributions hy the prison officials, his body was laid away in Potter's field. Warden Armstrong is anxious to raise a sufficient fund to purchase a lot for burial purposes n e a r t h e prison. Sentiment against bodies being turned over to the- state is gaining. The defense of the present law, which taakes this possible, is that it has done away with the business of body snatching. FIVE DEMOCRATS. *ome of the Things They Will Try to Do in the Legislature. The gathering of Democratic powers in Lansiag caused new interest among members-elect of the next legislature in the plans of the five Democratic representatives who have been chosen from various sections. These five members, S. C. Thompson, of Manistee; G. B. Willits, of Calhoun; Edwin Farmer, of Livingston; Henry Zacharias, of Saginaw; F. H. Trabblc, of Monroe, will be the busiest men in the two houses. They will carry all the bills of their party, In addition to local legislation and personal legislation. Following are subjects on which bills are favored: Direct nomination of United States senators, the action of the people binding the legislature. Election of railroad commissioner. Election of tax commissioners. Direct nomination of all officers. A non-partisan election of delegates to the constitutional convention. Two-cent railroad fare in lower peninsula, three-cent fare above straits. Initiative and referendum. Recall of unsatisfactory officials by popular vote. Abolition of pardon board. Repeal of change of venue law. Homo rule for cities. Law making acceptance of passes a crime. Bigamy Disclosed. At the examination of Delbert F. Booker, accused of a serious offense by his 12-year-old daughter, in Lansing the girl testified, In addition to her statements in relation to her father's alleged crime, that both her father and mother, after separating had married again without obtaining divorces. Booker was married to a Mrs. Ellsworth, in Battle Creek, it was said, and after her death he married a Mrs. :owe, of Lansing. The mother married Peter Kroon, of Galesburg. Kalamazoo county authorities have been notified of the charge made against Mrs. Kroon and, should the present case against the father fail, he may be held for bigamy. Fatally Burned. Mayor John McKinley, one of St. Johns' leading merchants, was fatally burned in a gasoline explosion Friday night. Ho was filling a gasoline tank which supplies his store's lighting system and had a light near. Twenty gallons of gasoline exploded, blowing out the end of the building and throwing him 20 feet. His clothes and hair were burned from his body and his head badly burned. His recovery is doubtful. The store is situated In the Steel block, the finest building in Clinton county. The blaze was immediately controlled. Money Wanted In Chunks.

Killed One, Injured Three. Because a Finnish miner was careless with hi£iatof>, one man, Ww, Goggin, was killed and three, Dennis Shaft, John Sullivan and John Handley, were injured at the Qtitncy mine in Houghton. Shea cannot live. The miner was splitting powder in his hand when the hot grease fell from a lamp, firing it. Ha became frightened arid dropped the powder, burning, into a box of powder, which was fired and caught 14 other boxes. The explosion killed Goggin and threw Shea and Sullivan down the shaft, 200 feet, to the twenty-third level. The shaft is badly damaged from the eighteenth to the twenty-fourth level and operations are necessarily held up. Rescuing parties had great difficulty in bringing up the suffocating miners. Forty men of the night shift had gone down just before the explosion. It is not known how many are yet down. . Shot Dead. Fred. Wlstpointer, a Portsmouth township fanner, was shot through the heart and Instantly killed by Chris Pedereon, proprietor of a roadhouse on the Tuscola road, near Bay City, in a fight in the barroom of the house Friday evening. According to Pederson's story, which Is confirmed by eye-witnesses, the shooting was done in selfdefense and after Pederson had been tAocktfd down twice by his victim. It '*ifff*ars the two had trouble once be- P J M e i m d t h a t , Pederson and Chris wtetptornter, brother of the dead man, had a fight in a saloon over a game of parts last Tuesday, in which Pederson was given two black eyes and the otbr er man was severely choked. < ^iMBAer camiMS owned by George H.

In zero weather 'and scantily clad the men walked to Alpena. Three horses were cremated and three saved. The camp had just been completed and was in operation only a few days. Walter Eagle; aged 19, -of Alpena, who was knocked from the roof of a building when a high win£ blew over a smoke stack, has died of his injuries,* Warm for Ice Men. The federal grand jury, sitting in Toledo, 0., which has been investigating the connection of the Ann Arbor and Pere Marquette railroads with the formation of the Toledo Ice trust, was busy and more than a score of witnesses were examined, many of whom were Michigan agents of the Ann Arbor, or Michigan ice men. Damaging testimony is said to be in possession of the jurors, and indictments are ex* pected The federal authorities have evidence of secret rebates granted the Toledo Ice 4 Coal Co. It was said that violations of the interstate commerce law involving discrimination, alleged to have been found by the grand jury, will be turned over to the United States authorities for the southern federal district of Michigan. Fight Mail Orders. The Implement dealers of Michigan, in their convention in Grand Rapids, made a fight against manufacturers who sell to retailers and to catalogue houses. The latter question was fought In secret session. President Glasgow declares the association is strong enough to force manufacturers to refuse to sell tb mail order houses, which will force them to build their own factories and put them on a level with other dealers. A New 8leeplng Car Story. Among the railroad visitors in town yesterday was F. A. Miller, general passenger agent of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway. He visited all of the general offices In town vad at the Hollenden Hotel yesterday old a story of one of the sleeping car sorters who was recently found isleep while on duty. This is contrary to the rules of The St. Paul Road, and the negro man was in trouble when found by the inspector on The Pioneer Limited. He had his, wits about him, however, and in response to the inspector's inquiry as to what he was doing asleep, he said: "I'll tell you how it was, boss. I have only been with the company a short time and before coming here I was working on such and such a railroad. The line was so roush that I could not gjet any sleep. Since I have been working for the The St, Paul the road has noon so smooth that I lust could not keep awake." Mr. Miller says that while the negro had violated the rules, he was permitted.to keep his job on account of his' wit.—Cleveland Leader, Unearthing the Briber. During a recent campaign in England a certain woman called on a laborer's wife and asked if her husband would vote for Lord Blank. "No, he won't," was the reply. "But, remember the blankets and coals you got from the clergyman." "Never mind them. He's been promised a new pair of trousers if he votes for Mr. Dash." Suspecting that this was a case of bribery that must be outdone, the woman canvasser offered a sovereign if the woman would tell her who had promised the trousers. The money paid over, the wroraan smiled. "I promised them," she said, "and I'll buy them out of your sovereign." PUT DOWN "EDDICATION" IDEA. Farmers's Plea Had Weight Among Brother Agriculturists. In the early forties, on a certain "town meetin' day" in one of the small farming communities of the Granite state, there was more than the usual interest and excitement. Some audacious Philistine had secured the Insertion in the warrant of an article "To see If the town will appropriate $500 for a new schoolhouse." The sturdy yeomanry were out in force to fight down this' proposition. The* sympathetic moderator didn't "moderate" them worth a cent. The so-called "toney" advocates, conscious from _the start of their numerical weakness, were conciliatory arid-perv suaslve, in the hope of thus winning to their standard sufficient of the opposition to carry the day. These hopes were dashed, however, when a veteran farmer, the Nestor of the guild, got the floor, and shouted in foghorn tones: "What do you want of skuiehouses, anyway? This eddication talk is raisin' the old Harry wiih the boys on the farm! There's that Danny Webster—' s likely a young man 's ever raised in these 'ere parts! Got this eddication idee into his head—left the farm—never's heard of afterward!" This was a settler. The "toneys" fled the scene, and the "noes" had it. FILLING UP THE CANADIAN WEST.

Most diseases start in the alimentary canal—stomach and bowels. A great deal of our stomach and bowel troubles come from eating too much starchy and greasy food. The stomach does not digest any of the starchy food we eat—white bread, pastry, potatoes, oats, etc.—these things are digested in the small intestines, and if we eat too much, as most of us do, the organs that should digest this kind of food are overcome by excess of work, so that fermentation, indigestion, and a long train of ails result. Too much fat also is hard to digest, and this is changed into acids, sour stomach, belching gas, and a bloaty, heavy feeling. In these conditions a change from Indigestible foods to Grape-Nuts will work wonders in not only relieving the distress but In building up a strong digestion, clear brain and steady nerves. A Wash, woman writes: j . 4 "About five years ago I soffered with bad stomach—dyspepsia, indigestion, constipation—caused, I know now, from eating starchy and greasy food. "I doctored for two years without any benefit. The doctor told me there was no cure for me. I could not eat anything. without suffering severe pain in my back and sides, and I became discouraged. . "A friend recommended Grape-Nuts and I began to use it. In less than two weeks I began to feel better, and inside of two months I was a wel"; woman and have been ever since. "I (j^n eat anything I wish with pleasure. We eat Grape-Nuts anc cream for breakfast,; and are verj fond of itr" Name~ttven by Postun Co., Battle Creek. Mich. Read tht little boo*, "The Boad to Wellvilte/ in pkgs. "There's a reason." The American 8ett!er I t Welcomed to Canada. A number of the leading newspapers on this side of the line have been noticing the growth of the Canadian West In recent years, and draw attention to the fact that there seems to be no abatement of the Influx of settlers to that great grain-growing country. The Buffalo Express thuB refers to the subject: "Canada West continues to grow. There were 4,174 homesteads entries there in July of this year, as against 3,571 in July, 1903. Canada plumes, herself over this fact, with becoming pride. But what appears to make our neighbors happiest is the statement that of these 4,174 homesteaders, 1,212 were from this side of the line. Little is said about the 97 Canadians who recrossed the border to take np homes in Canada West, or of the 808 from Great Britain, or of the 1,236 from mm-British countries. It appears that the item in this July report that makes Canada rejoice most is this of the 1,212 American farmers who decided to try their fortunes in Canada West. "The compliment is deserved. The 1,212 were mostly from Dakota and other farming states, and go into Canada fitted better than any other class of immigrants for developing the new country. They take capital with them, too, say Canadian papers proudly. In every way, they are welcome over there." As the Express well says, the American is welcomed to Canada, and the reasons given are sufficient to invite the welcome. The Ameriacn farmer knows thoroughly the farming conditions that prevail in the Canadian prairie provinces, and is aware of every phase of agricultural development in recent years. In practical knowledge of what is wanted to get the largest return for labor and investment he is by long odds superior to any European settler. He knews what is required to bring success, and he Is able and willing to do it, and his future causes no apprehension to the successful Canadian farmer. The agent of the Canadian Government, whose address appears elsewhere, says that the difference between the manners and customs of the farmer "from Dakota, Oregon or Minnesota and the farmer from Manitoba, Saskatchewan or Alberta is not nearly so marked as that between the farmer of the Maritime provinces and the Ontario tiller of the soil. Hence the welcome to the free homesteads of the Canadian West, and there are hundreds of thousandsof them left, that is extended to the settler from the Western States. was DOE8 YOUR BACK ACHE?

Tea drinkers are finding scant encouragement in a report recently made by a large tea exporting house in Yokohama to its American customers. Incidentally it indicates that the United" States-is not alone in facing increased cost of living. The report says: "Owing to the rapidly increasing cost of living in Japan labor costs more, and in consequence cultivation of the tea gardens is less generous and extensive than formerly, and less care and skill are expended in picking and curing the leaf. Hence the average quality of the teas now offered for sale is below that of seasons prior to the war, and for the same reasons we are1 not likely in the future to see any reversion to the excellence of former years."—New York Sun.

T%e naturalist who has to tell of the steps by which nun came to his estate wis have attention that wttl never e e given to the questions of life In general, near as these problems shonM * e to all Intelligent persons. The Metorlaa who deals with human conduct has his way to s hearing made <easy by the motive ol fellowship. Above all the moralist who sets the man in face of himself and shows htm his relations to the else than self win have the foremost place, says the late Dean Shaler, In Atlantic. If fee do his work greatly, bringing to tt Newtonian might or Darwinian devotion to his purpose, the only danger in the appreciation he Is to receive Is that it will instinctively lift him above the human plane, denying him true fellowship with his kind. It Is only as men come to s higher appreciation of human quality that they are willing to leave their greatest teachers of morals in the same plane as themselves. That alone tells us where lies the summit of greatness in the intuitive judgment of mankind. Wealthiest in the World. The figures recently made public by the census authorities at Washington place the aggregate wealth of the United States, real and pers6nal, in 1904, at 1106,381,415,009. Inasmuch as present methods of ascertaining facts and of computing results are far better than ever before, it may be assumed that these figures are fairly accurate. Taking them as reliable and using the ratio of increase applied to preceding computations, the wealth of the country now would be $116,000,000,000. This puts the United States wholly by itself, says the Troy News, with possessions valued at double those of its nearest competitor and far distancing other great nations. Statistics of this sort relating to foreign countries are largely conjecture, but the highest figures given by those recognised as authorities arc as follows: Great Britain, $58,200,- 000,000; France, $50,000,000,000; Germany, $45,000,000,000; Russia, $35,- 000,000,000; Austria-Hungary, $30,000,- 000,000; Italy, $18,000,000,000, and Spain, $12,000,000,000. Not only ii the United States the richest -country In the world, but its weal Us Is increasing more rapidly than that of any other. TRANtPUt OF MILLIONS OP THB • f A T I * FUNDI QUIITLY MADB. SHIFT SPEEDILY MADB Tlefcet Agent in jail—Verdict fr Broken Heart linger Drops Varievs Mature. Paying Out Large Buma, A large portion of the state funds, consisting of primary school money derived from the railroads for the taxes of the past three yearn, has been called in by the state treasurer and distributed among the school districts of the state. There waa nearly *4V 000,000 of this money, and it Is a remarkable fact that It was withdrawn from the banks of the state and distributed without causing the slightest embarrassment to the financial institutions. This is regarded as a remarkable fact, and one that reflects credit on State Treasurer Olasler. The money had been widely scattered, among the bank* e l the state,- according to their standing, and the amount of their capital atodk. It Is a financial movement of considerable importance to shift within a few days $9,000,000 of currency from one set of banks to another without upsetting the equilibrium of some of them, and now that the transaction has been accomplished it is deemed creditable to the state treasurer who accomplished it. Stratton Bound Over. Floyd 8. Stratton, formerly ticket agent for the D., G. H. ft M. at Fenton, whose disappearance a few months ago is alleged to have disclosed a shortage of $7$ In his accounts with the company, is a prisoner in Flint's jail, tfe was arrested in Chicago, where he was located through the efforts of Sheriff Zimmerman and Detective Foley, of the Grand Trunk system. The prisoner was arraigned pn the charge of embezslement, and on waiving examination was bound over to the circuit court. 1«V Hamll- The Spaniard of To-day. I find the typical Spaniard of to-day In an Aragonese peasant, elderly but lithe, whom I lately saw jump from the train at a little country station to examine a very complicated French agricultural machine drawn up in a Siding, writes Havelock Ellis, in Atlantic, he looked at it above and below with wrinkled brows and intent eyes, he ran all round it, he clearly could not quite make it out; but there was no flippancy or Indifference in his attitude towards this - new, strange thing; he would never rest, one felt, until he reached the meaning of i t 'And the grief of many of us will be that in this eager thirst for novelties the Spaniard will cast aside not a few of the things which now draw us to Spain. I The scheme for a railroad from Siberia to Alaska, which has been discussed as a Russian enterprise, comes up in the guise of an American scheme. There has just been incorporated in New Jersey The Trans- Alaska-Siberian Railway company, which purposes to construct a road from Alaska to Siberia, with a tunnel Under Bering strait The undertaking Is rather ambitious, as the main line is to be 3,750 miles long, with branches aggregating 2,250 miles. The American company is an offshoot of the European organization. The fact that those Interested take the trouble and go to the expense of Incorporating here shows that there are men with money who have faith in a plan which many have been inclined to regard as chimerical. Heart Salve. Miss Belle Barco, of Benton Harbor, was awarded $10,000 damages for breach of promise against Arthur C. Loomls, of Traverse City, the Jury deliberating over eight hours. The plaintiff completely broke dowa after she left the stand. Loomts was engaged to marry the young woman and on the eve of their wedding married another. His letters to her were introduced in evidence. In one he sent "kisses to her and • to the cats and dogs" and In another he .told her he "would go to hades or punching cattle If she turned him down." The court room was crowded all during the trial. No defense was made by Loomis, his attorneys only striving to keep down the amount of damages. She sued for $10,000. Singer's-Sudden Call. Burdett Clark, who has been singing illustrated songB at the Bijou vaudeville theater in Oskosh, Wis., died suddenly just after leaving the stage. It is believed that heart disease was the cause, aa he had been apparently in eneellent health up to a few » i n - ntee^before the end came, He was 26 years of agd and his home was at Lansing, Mich., where his father Is chief of police. He has a brother living In Milwaukee. He was formerly at Fond du Lac and tame here to sing at the Bijou. Bobbed a Cripple. Three robbers held up Harry Beers, a cripple, owner of a billiard hall In Northport, at the point of a revolver. He was relieved of $40 In money, shoved through the door of his home and told if he gave the alarm within an hour'they would kill him. The three then drove away. Beers was roughly handled and the robbers started -. to carry him off in their buggv, hut yielded to his' pleadings and left him at home. No trace of the robbers can be found. Governor Investigates. It is understood that Gov. Warner's mission to Washington is to secure information from the interstate commerce commission regarding the car shortage problem which he intends to discuss in his message. It is said the shortage of cars is one of the most Important problems now confronting the shippers of the state and the delay in shipping produce often results In great loss. It is known that Gov. Warner is iTeatly Interested in the subject on tehalf of the shippers and the understanding is that he will recommend legislation requiring railroad companies to furnish cars. probably something in the nature of the reciprocal demurrage bill introduced at the last session of the legislature will be favored by the governor.

He mounted the wagon In which the sick woman lay, sat well hack under the bowed cover, clucked low to the horses, and drove off toward the ferry. If discreet behavior on his part could ensure it there would be no conflict provoked with superior numbers; with numbers, moreover, composed of violent- tempered and unprincipled perse?' cutors who were already acting with but the merest shadow of legal authority. On the seat of the second wagon, whip in hand; was perched Giles Rae, his coat tKittoned warmly to the chin. He was slight and feeble to the eye, yet he had been fired, to new life by the certainty that now they were to leave the territory of the persecuting Gentiles for a land to be the Qalnta' very own.

At the gate was Prudence Corson, gowned for travel, reticule in hand, her prettineas shadowed, under the scoop of her bonnet, the toe of one trim little hoot meditatively rolling a pebble over the ground. "Drive slowly, Daddy. Likely I shall overtake you before you reach the ferry.

"I am not complimented, though— you care more.for your religion than for me" He looked at her hungrily. "No, you are wrong there—I don't separate you at all—I couldn't—you and my religion are one—but, if I must, I can love you in spirit as I worship my God in spirit—" 'If it will satlBfy you, very well!" "My reward will come—I shall do a great work, I shall have a Witness from the sky. Who am I that I should have thought to win a crown without taking up a cross?" "I am sorry for you." "Oh, Prue, there must be. a way to save the souls of such as you, even In their blindness. Would God make a flower like you, only to let It be lost? There must be a way.

Oh, I know it well enough—his tears will never dry, his tfeart win always have a nig hurt In It—and your face will always be so fresh and clear in it!" He put his hands on her shoulders and looked down into the [ace under the bonnet "Let me make sure I shall lose no look c< you, from little tilted chin, and lip* of scarlet thread, and little teeth like grains of rice, and eyes into which I used to wander and wonder BO far—" She looked past him and Btepped back. ^ "Capt Girnway is coming for me— yonder, away down the street He takes me to Carthage." His face hardened as he looked over his shoulder. "I shall never wed any woman but you. Can you feel aa deeply as that? Will you wed no man but me?" She fluttered the cherry ribbons on the bonnet and fixed a stray curl in front of one ear. "Have you a right to ask that?

A few paces on he met Capt. Girnway, iawrty, debonair, smiling, handsome in his brass-buttoned uniform of the Carthage Grays. "I ha,ve just left the ferry, Mr. Rae.

Your people are apt to provoke them by be* ing too outspoken; but * left special orders fonthe-good treatment -of yourself and outfit'.' With a tetf-smothered-''thank you," he passed on, not trusting himself to say more to one who was not only the enemy of his .people, hut bent, seemingly, on deluding a young woman to the loss of her soul. He heard their voices in cheerful greeting, but did not turn back; With eyes to the front and shoulders squared he kept stiffly on his way through the silent, deserted streets to the ferry. Fifteen minutes' walk brought hiia to the now busy waterside'. The ferry, a fiat boat propelled by long oars, was landing when he came into view, and he saw his father's wagon driven on. He sped down the hill, pushed through the crowd of soldiers standing about, and hurried forward on the boat to let the old man know he had come. But on the seat was another than his father. He recognized the man, and called to him. "What are you doing there, Brother Keaton? Where's my father?" The man had shrunk back under the wagon-cover, having seemingly been frightened by the soldier?. _ "I've taken your father's place. Brother Rae.rt "Did he cross with Brother Wright?" - »Yes—he—" The man hesitated. Then came an interruption from the shore. "Come, clear the gangway there so we can load! Here are some more of the damned rats we've hunted out of their, holes!" The speaker made a half-playful lunge with his bayonet at a gaunt, yellow-faced specter of a man who staggered on to the boat with a child in his arms wrapped in a tattered blue quilt. A gust of the chilly wind picked his shapeless, loose-fitting hat off as ho leaped to avoid the bayonet-point, and Lis head was seen to be shaven. The crowd on the bank, laughed loud at his clumsiness and at his grotesque head. Joel Rae rah to help him forward on the boat. "Thank you, brother—I'm Just up from the fever-bed—they shaved my head for it-and so 1 lost my hat-* thank you—here we shall be warm If only the sun cornea out" Joel went back to help on others who came, a feeble, bedraggled dozen or so that had clung despairingly to their only shelter,.. until they were driven out _ , •». "You can stay here'In safety, you know, if you renounce Joseph Smith and his works—they will give you food and shelter.'' He repeated it to each little group of the dispirited wretches as they staggered past him, but they replied staunchly by word or look, and one man, in the throes of a chill, swung his cap and uttered a feeble "Hurrah for the new Zion!" (TO BE CONTINUED.) LEARNED LESSON TOO WELL Reporter Went to Extremes In Deal re for Caution. "My boy," said the editor of the Billsvllle Bugle to the new reporter, "you lack caution. You must learn not to state things as facts until they are proved facts—otherwise you are very apt to get us into libel suits. Do not say the cashier who stole the funds;' say 'the cashier who is alleged to have stolen the funds.' That's all now, and—ah—turn in a stickful about that second ward social last night" Owing to an influx of visitors, it was late in the afternoon before the genial editor of the Bugle caught a glimpse of the great family daily. Halfway down the social columns his eye lit on the following cautious paragraph: "It is rumored that a card party was given last evening to a number of reputed ladies of second ward. Mrs. Smith, gossip says, was the hostess, and the festivities are reported to have continued until 10:30 in the evening. It is alleged that the affair was a social function given to the ladies of the 8econd Ward Cinch club, and that, with the exception of Mrs. James BllwUUger, who says the comes from Leavits Junction, none but members were . present. The reputed hostess insists that coffee and wafers alone were served as refreshments. "The Smith woman claims to he the wife of John Smith, the so-called 'Honest Shoe Man/ of 315 East State street." Shortly afterward a whirling mass, claiming to be a reporter on the Bugle, flew 15 feet into the street and landed with what bystanders assert was a dull, sickening thud.—-Puck. Deaf and Dumb 8trikers* Remarkable was a strike of deaf and dumb workmen in Australia. These silent workers had a strong union, and when they gathered If the street around the beleaguered factory and excitedly began to wriggle their fingers at each other the sight was worth seeing. It is said that much unlawful and riot provoking language was used without one word being spoken. It would be easier for most people to do their duty if they could be made to suspect that they ought to be doing something else.

[Original.] "The romance, the coincidence—indeed, all the material for story telling that took place In the civil war—Is or : was inexhaustible," said the veteran When pressed for a reminiscence. "I have a story that happened to a friend of mine, but before 1 tell it I'm going to tell you au lucldeut that happened to myself, for without the first I ' wouldn't have believed the last I i bivouacked on a farm -In Tennessee I one night In 1862 and noticed a coun- { try girl looking at me, as I thought j curiously. We marched in the morn- ; lag, and soon after I was transferred to another field 1,000 miles away. Two years later I was back In Tennessee!**1 where the conditions were all changed, j One day we were pushing the Johnnies, and at a certain spot I noticed . something familiar. A countryman who was talking with me recognized me and told me that I was on the j farm on which I had bivouacked two j years before. Then he told something ' about the girl that I wouldn't like to repeat." "Oh, go ahead!" "No; I'll tell you the other story. The one I've told you is true, for it ! happened to myself. The one I'm go- ! Ing to tell happened to Bill Havens, a man in my company, and I know he wouldn't lie. You see, we were shifting all the time and never could tell whom we were going to run up j against. And the girls—I mean the ' country girls—If they saw their fate ( or affinity or whatever you like to call I him they would drop as If struck by a j bullet. ! "Bill Havens was a handsome young , fellow with a devil-may-care smile ! that would drop any girl. One day when our skirmish.line was feeling for the enemy we stood at rest near a farmhouse, on the gallery of which were a couple of girls. Bill sang out: 'Hurrah! We're going to have a Jolly fight)' One of the girls turned pale, j but she gave Bill a look that I could | not quite .'ret out of my mind for some . time. I wished she'd given it to me. j "The Johnnies weren't where we , thought they were and we didn't have j to fight after all. We went into camp near by and didn't move for a week. Meanwhile Bill had made the acquaintance of the girl who had looked at him and though he said nothing about it I knew there was a love affair going on. She couldn't have been more than seventeen—Bill was only nineteen him- j self—wore her skirts to the top of her : boots and her hair cut square around > her neck, as most of the young south- j era girls then wore the hair. I knew ; it wis a bad case of love fever, for when we broke camp and moved on ! down south the girl was standing on the gallery and I saw her with my own eyes drop in a heap just as Bill's waving handkerchief passed out of sight. "You must remember that the war lasted four years, and all that time the armies kept moving here and there, back and forth, places often occupied by the Johnnies and rebs successively. I remember entering a beautiful southern town in 'G2 and was impressed with the magnificent trees that surrounded It. I went into the same place a year later after the Confederates had occupied It and every tree had been cut down to give a clear sweep for artillery. I would never have knowu I was in the same place. "Well, about a year and a half after we had camped near the farmhouse where Bill met the girl we went through one of the biggest battles of the war. After it was over the Confederates withdrew, as they usually did, and leaving men to piok up the wounded and bury the dead we went on after them. Bill Havens was among the missing. He was never accounted for till he accounted for himself nearly three months afterward, and this is the account he gave. You needn't believe it unless you want to, but there were stranger things than even this happened in that war. "During a charge Bill had fallen, pierced by a bullet In the chest He kept his consciousness for awhile amid a din of firing, then fainted from loss of blood. The next thing he was con- ' 8cious of was hearing a bird singing and not another sound. The army had moved on; the men left to bury the dead and succor the wounded had moved on, too, leaving Bill lying under bushes where they hadn't seen him. i Death seemed only put off. It might ; be years before his body would be ' found. j "Now I'm going to leave Bill to starve ' to death or die of his wound and twist my story to the girl he had met long before. She was sitting on the gallery where she had last seen Bill, thinking about him, of course, when she heard something drop lightly on the steps before her. Looking down she saw a gold watch chain with a piece of white paper tied to it She picked It up and read the paper. «It was written In blood and read: 'Union soldier dying. Help.' "She didn't wait to speculate on how the chain eot there: she knew all about the oattte ami rusuea on on a semvi. calling 03 she wt^ii M '«** yUc he a:'J a faint answer, and going to the spot found the man sheJoved. "Bill had taken I7.a wutcU chum, uot.n piece of paper from hla pocket, brolcci off a twig and written the uie*sa:;e with his own blood. Then he raiumed it down his musket mid tired it ut mi angle." The listeners rose ludlgnuntly. muttering, "When are we to get HI' of these stories of trie civil arV" "When wo vols'are a ! dead," snUi the story teller.

May Make Binder Twine Governor Warner's visit to Michigan City, Ind., recently, to further acquaint himself with the practical value of the binder twine industry in connection with the employment of con* victs in the prisons of our state, makes it probable that legislative consideration will be given to that subject at the coming session. The binder twine market is now controlled by a combination or trust which enforces a price of eleven cents a pound. It is being made and so.d at nine cents a pound by prison au thonties, and the profit is good. Michigan lesislators will do well to give the binder twine subject all the con* sideration it would seem to deserve. Inasmuch as it does not compete with any established Michigan industry and would not be objected to by the representatives of any of the trades or labor associations, it would seem desirable from every point of view.

Heart Strength Heart Strength, or Heart WtakoeM, means Nerve Btreiifth, or Nerve Weaknetfr-nothin* mora. Fos> ttlvely, not one weak heart In a hundred is, In itself, actually diseased. It is almost always a hidden tiny little nerve that really is all at fault This obscure nerve—the Cardiac, or Heart Nerve —simply needs, and must have, more power, more •lability, more oontrolllnt, more governing Strength. Without that the Heart-must continue to fail, and the stomach and kidneys also have these same controlling nerves. This clearly explains why, as a medicine, Dr. Shoop's Restorative has In the past done so much for weak and ailing Hearts. Dr. Snoop first sought the cause of all this painful, palpitating, suffocating heart distress. Dr. Shoop's Restorative—this popular prescription—is alone directed to these weak and wasting nerve centers. It builds; it strengthens; it offers real, genuine heart help. If yon would have strong Hearts, strong digestion, strengthen these nerves — re-establish them as needed, with Dr. Shoop's Restorative JUTOXXfOliL XtOCAL The ioe man will take a back ttftt for a few months while the coal man will be in the front.

ROBERT STUART MAC ARTHUR Pastor Calvary Baptist Church, Mew York. The Christmast i d e celebrates the birth-festival of our Lord. The i, incarnation o f Christ is the central thought in the history of the world. It is the e v e n t around which all other events revolve in smaller or larger circles. All the great facts of history previous to His coming had reference to His advent; all the events since look back to that advent as the beginning of a new era. All lines of previous history converge to the manger and the cross; all lines of history since diverge from these two epochal events. The birth of Christ was the beginning <?f a new race, and the observance of that birth is still the jubilee of this new race. Angels Joined in the advent of Christ. wJtb jtfolo and choral song as He left the •osom of the Father to become the child of Mary in the manger at Beth* lehem. This festival is still the most joyous feast of the church. It makes childhood more beautiful and glorious, and it lightens, the burdens of age and sorrow with its tender memories and its triumphant prophesies. In the chill of midwinter in no/th^rn climes it kindles a fire of hop* and joy in even* home-: and heart. *t is prophetic of the golden age when Christ shall -vjrue again, when evil shall bo overthrown, and when - the song* of a redeemed humanity shall sweep over the universe. By the gifts which characterize this season we commemorate God's great Gift, the unspeakable gift of His Son to a world lost in sin and wandering In darknen. No one can rightly estimate the blessings which flow every year to all classes and conditions of men from the tender memories and gentle charities called forth by the remembrance of the Holy Child, Jesus. His birth has exalted the poetry, the music and the art of toe centuries. It has changed all social customs and religions rituals. It has given a new glory to human life and a new trend to eternity. This is the time when all bitterness should be forgotten, ail family feuds reconciled and all life glorified. It is unspeakably sad that In the name of Jesus Christ Russian murderers are slaughtering the Jewish people, the ancient and historic race which gave us the Christ It is a cause for profound humiliation that superstition, bigotry and virtual idolatry still abound under the shelter of the Christian name. But, marvelous and blessed as was the Incarnation of Christ, we know neither the day, the month nor the year when it took place. Dionysius the Small, about the year A. D. 526, fixed the birth of Christ in the seven hundred and fifty-fourth year of Rome; but all scholars know that he was in error by at least four years. We, know that Jesus was born before the death of Herod the Great; and we know that Herod died about the first of April in the year 750 6f Rome. It Is not too much to say that in all probability Chrtst was born four or five years before the dale usually given; so that this present year ought to be 1910 or 1911. There is no doubt thai the selection of the 25th of December as the day and the month was due to the existence of heathen festivals about that season of the year. The Christmas observance is thus a transfiguration of such heathen festivals as Saturnalia, Juvenalia and Brumalia. These were observed in the month of December to commemorate the golden age of universal freedom and in honor of the unconquered sun. There was a beautiful significance in the symbolic reference to the turning of the sun after the 25th of December. The natural sun thus began a new career and was illustrative of the birth of Christ as the Sun of Righteousnes and the Light of the World. The 20th of May and the 20th of April were once observed as the birthday of Christ. The 6th of January was also observed as the date of both His birth and His baptism. The day, the month and the year of His birth will never be known. It was vastly more important that we should know Christ as spiritual Lord and Master rather than thai we should know Him after the flesh. "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. "AND A LITTLE I CHILD SHALL LEAD T H E M " ' REV. JOHN TALBOT SM ITH, LL. D. President Catholic Summer School of America. The entire meaning of the festival of Christmas is contained in these words. It is the festival of the children, because on this day God the Son, the Second Person of t h e Blessed Trinity, took upon Him humau nature in the shape of a helpless and beautiful child. Various meanings have been read into the celebration of the nativity of Christ—the humanitarian regards it as the proper placing of the human individual in the economic system; the mere materialist looks upon it as the protest of infant right against adult might; the It as the emphasis of nature upon the necessity of^traiaina: properly th# ndxt generation: the; sentimentalist sees in it a nooW tribute to the beau* ty and lnnocenoT of the child. It is u e c ^ i & l b 1 ren^krhTw>reJ? ttitt \t the child hstf to depend 'upon these classes1 for due refpecf and real train* ing there wo^ld'be^o^ftrfstmas.rio deification of innocence and helpless* nestr/and no emphasis u|Kta duties* to the next feneration. The festival of Christmas'Is' truly the1 social, economic, political and rellgton* anniversary jf the human child, through"which be makes his demand upon the world tor existence, care.' training^ and love; the right of an Immortal soul as well as of a future7' citizen. The right• minded part of society accepts the responsibility with joy, and its beet efforts, in fact all its efforts, are expended on the work <ft preparation for the coming of the £bJhtf Not only do parents labor, bat the legislators make laws, teachers teach, artists create ' and ' commerce agonize* for the child—-for the next generation. Therefore the monumental truth of modern -civilization is expressed' tn the text: And a little child shall lead them. The entire meaning of the festival of Christmas is contained in these words. It is the festival of the children, because on . this day God; the Son, the Second Persoa of the Blessed Trinity, took upon Him human nature in the shape of a helpless and beautiful child. Various meanings iyT A Message of Peace in the Christmas Season Bv RT. REV. DAVID HUMMELL G RBXX Coadjutor Bishop of New York. The Christmas season comes with i t s message of peaceL-lo_a_world torn and rent with many divisions, a world in which t h e r e is much strife. This strife is to be allayed and. these divisions healed not by any. process of statutory enactment, but by that spirit of brotherly love and kindness which takes possession of the human heart at Christmastide. Just so far as that spirit continues regnant in the hearts of men throughout the year will the Christmas, season be prolonged ana continue to give its blessings to mankind. Perhaps one lesson which the Christmas season teaches above a)l others is that, in order to enter the kingdom of peace and happiness, we must become as a little child. And Jet that appealing love which the little child inspires become a persisting force in our lives! I once saw all the traffic In Fifth avenue stopped by a little child. Its mother was wheeling it across the street in its baby carriage and in the middle of the thoroughfare, crowded with vehicles of all kinds, she became panic-stricken and did not know what to do or which way to turn. But, suddenly, all the drivers reined in their horses, all the chauffeurs stopped their automobiles, and all the teamsters palled up their trucks—the traffic of the busy avenue had been brought to a standstill by a little child. So will the noise and the strife and the confusion of the world be arrested and checked by the little Christmas Child. Sure To Be Appreciated.

In 1896 Christopher Shaffmaster, a wealthy retired Brrmsoa township faroier", Made a wilL leaving the larger part of his property to his wife, the balance going to a son and daughter. For over 10 years he e-nffered from a malignant cancer tn his face, dying last June. His will when read was found to have-a elans* added in 1905 practically tutting out bis former bequests to his wife, leaving her the use of the village residence and of 80 acres of land without buildings so long as she remained his widow. At her death the daughter was to get the property, while the son got $16,000 to $17,000. Mrs. Shaffmaster, 70 years of age, was surprised at the announcement, and immediately began a contest which resulted in the jury sustaining the wUl. Net a Vslid Marriage, About three weeks ago Frederick Jenderreeke and May Fulton were married in a den of lions as an attraction for a Saginaw theater. It now transpires that the marriage was void, the bride already having one husband at-the time, from whom she says she thought »h* was divorced. "Miss" Fulton, who Is but 19, married Alonso Broughtott'ln St. Charles two years ago. He deserted her, she says, soon afterward going to Pennayl* vsnta and this fall he brought suit for divorce. 8he was notified a month ago of the suit by service,- but mistook the notice for an actual .decree granting her a divorce. Yesterday In the circuit court she disclosed the facts and the couple, who are Jiving here, will have to be married over again. MICHIGAN IN BRIEF.

Pickle hunted up Reed. "I will whip you the first time I have a chance," said Reed to Nlms when they met .in the hall, shaking his fist under his professor's nose. "What will I be doing all the time you are 'whipping' me?" the professor coyly inquired. They met at 5 o'clock outside the college grounds, a few words were passed and they clinched. Nlms let go his left Into Reed's eye when they broke and they clinched again, Nims going down, when Reed is said to have pounded him till Nims cried enough. Thieves Shot and Run. ; Lying in wait for a gang of thieves Who have been robbing freight cars in the vicinity of Ann Arbor of late, Sheriff Dull and two of his deputies brought about a lively exchange of shots with the thieves about 7 o'clock last night. *jofai "slayer;^-farmer, 11 v ing near the Pere Marquette tracks just outside of town, reported to the sheriff that he had found concealed in his barn a quantity of goods in small package*, evidently placed there by the freight car thieves. The officers planned an ambush, but it was spoiled when one of the trio of suspects detected the officers drawing down upon them through the darkness. They broke and ran, the officers firing at them, without hitting anybody. The thieves returned the fire, with a like result. The goods have been removed to the jail, and the sheriff's force is trying to track the thieves. Pound Parents Dead. Mr. and Mrs. Tahlmeier were found dead in their home by their daughter, Mrs. Joseph Kaul, who lives in the country east of Saginaw, and who came for a visit. The post-mortem showed death the result of asphyxiation i from carbonic acid gas, presumably from a coal stove, the magazine of which was clogged. It is believed they met death on Friday night, the 7th, when they were last seen alive. Mrs. Kaul found her father lying on his back in bed, undressed and apparently sleeping. Mrs, Tahjmeier, partly dressed and with a blanket thrown over her shoulder, was kneeling by the bedside, as if in.prayer^. ; The. authorities believe Mrs. Tahlmeier was awakened* when nearly overcome by the deadly fumes, and finding her husband lifeless by her side sought tokeecape, but got no farther than to tire deerj sinking down from weakness and the exerttan. c ATTRACTION* OF WjMTtRN .CANADA. < » r"; •• ! * * * ' • • * * » < • , h • The ma&aer in which foe Canadian West has attracted setters in recent years has caused many of onr Journals and public men to "sit up and take notice," to use a current phrase. From every European country and from almost every State in the Union large number of settlers have flocked to the prairie provinces of Canada, where free homesteads and wide opportunities are open to ail who desire to avail themselves of them. The greatest factor in attracting settlers lies la the inherent richness of soil and suitability of climate for producing what is universally considered to be the finest wheat in the world—the "No. 1 Hard" of Canadian growth—and other cereals that rank in the very first dais. This year the harvest returns were: Wheat, W,- 000,000 bushels; oats, 70,000,000 bushels; barley, 17.000,000 bushels; and when it Is considered that the entire population of the three provinces—as evidenced by the quinquennial census Just completed—is only 810,000, it is easily seen that the lure of the Canadian West Is in its agricultural potentialities. Another feature which attracts the settler is that railway construction is proceeding with such rapidity that almost every district is within easy reach of outside markets, and that good prices for all lines of farm products rule practically from the commencement of agricultural operations. This is a factor which did not prevail when the earlier settlements in the West were made in Canada and in the United States, and has given a great impetus to Canadian Western settlement in recent years. The free grant system of homesteads which prevails in the prairie provinces, by which every settler who is able and willing to comply with the conditions of actual settlement (by no means onerous) is given 160 acres free, except $10 for entry, is a great drawing card, and in the last fiscal year gathered in over 189,000 additional to _the_we8tern population, of which 57,796 were from the United States. The further fact, as is strongly brought about by the agent of the Canadian Government, whose address appears elsewhere, that a splendid common school system, practically free, prevails throughout the entire country, and Is easy of access in even the most remote districts, is another great inducement to the settler who has the future welfare of his family In mind, and this, coupled with the fact that western Canadian law and order are proverbial, completes a circle of good and sufficient reasons why the tide of immigration has set in so steadily toward the country to the north of our boundary line. BROKE T H E W I L D C A T S BACK. Philadelphia Wan Victorious In Handto- Hand Combat. • Money MleetrtevMan Sick. Richard Hooter, who lives within a naif mile of the spot where Edwin Edgar was murdered in New Haven township, has been seriously ill, while $35, which he 1B alleged to have had on leaving CflwiffllnK, are missing. HooVnr, who is 35 years of age and married, rode home with George Seamons and Henry .Oldenburg after a day's trading alt the village and was set down at his own gate at 5 o'clock. Shortly afterwards he became deathly sick and in the excitement over his condition, it was not noticed for some hours that his money was gone. Sherfa Jarrad is investigating. Lost His Life. While catching a ride on a freight *aj, Nicholas Carpenter, aged 21, fell between two cars, was run over and crashed to death Wednesday night The accident occurred in the yards of the Fruiiport Iron Works.

Were Giants, skeletons, declared to lie "ninw*i*et long," were found by ditch diggers ln~Mt. Haley township. They were- discovered In what was long considered an Indian mound.. The lower jaw of one skeleton, It is reported, measures four and five-eights Inches in diameter. The other head has a set of almost perfect teeth. Mounds in, the vicinity of the find will be explored. Unarmed and alone, Thomas Dyke was attacked by a wildcat on Locust mountain, south of Mount Carmel, Pa. He had been in Ashland and started to drive home. His horse stepped on a nail and he put the animal in a stable. Then he started to walk home and was on the mountain when the cries of a. wildcat alarmed him. A few minutes later he saw the beast ten feet In front of him. The animal finally sprang. He jumped aside and as the body of the cat struck the road be leaped upon It. For several minutes the fight between the wild animal and the man went on. At length by a quick swing he broke the animal's back. A physician dressed the several deep scratches on his face and bands, but otherwise he was uninjured, T R Y I N G E X P E R I E N C E .

"An amateur," murmured the Juror, "can not presume to enlighten an expert" 'This man ia a competent juror," chimed the court, and the trial proceeded. The Evils of Constipation. are many; In fact almost every serious illness has its origin in constipation, and some medicines, instead of preventing constipation, add to it. This is true of most cathartics, which, when first used, have a beneficial effect, but the dose has to be continually increased, and before long the remedy ceases to have the slightest effect There is one preparation, however, that can be relied upon to produce the same results with the same dose, even after fifty years' daily use, and this is Brandreth's Pills, which has a record of over 100 years as the standard remedy for constipation- and all troubles arising from an impure state of the blood, Brandreth's Pills are the same fine laxative tonic pill your grandparents used; >and are for sale everywhere, either plain or sugar-coated. Squirrels as Walters. It has taken Flak Goodyear of Burchtown, Pa., two years to train his p«t squirrels, but his efforts are now repaid, and on Thanksgiving he treated his friends to a surprise. Gathering half a hundred or more gray squirrels, Mr. Goodyear taught them to go into the woods and pick up nuts, carrying them to his home. On Thanksgiving night at a dinner his guests noticed a small board* running from a window to a nut bowl. The host gave one knock on the table with his knife. A squirrel hopped down the plank and dropped a chestnut into the bowl. Two raps brought a squirrel with a walnut three knocks a sheiibark. Finally, a grave old squirrel took his place and cracked the nuts, winding up the performance by brushing off the crumbs with his thick bushy, tail. , T O R T U R E D W I T H ECZEMA. the next several wtsntn* every**** that hag bo* dorini the growing season.

"Last year I suffered with a tremendous itching on my back, which grew worse and worse, until it spread over the whole body, and only my face and hands were free. For four months or so I suffered torments, and I had to scratch, scratch, scratch, -until I bled. At night when I went to bed things got worse, and I had at times to get up and scratch my body all over, until I was as sore as could be, and until I suffered excruciating pains. They told me that I was suffering from eczema. The*n-1 made up my mind that I would use the Cuticura Remedies. I used them according to instructions, and very soon indeed I was greatly relieved. I continued until well, and now I am ready to recommend the Cuticura Remedies to any one. Mrs. Mary Metzger, Sweetwater, Okla., June 28, 1905." Pen for Captured Rats, As the Hindu population object to the killing of rats, an influential native banker proposes to provide a "rat ruksha" or sort of pen in which the captured rats may be confined as pensioners for the natural term of their lives, the male and female animals being kept apart. To the homestaying Europeans this appears too "GUbertian" for grave consideration, but the proposal has been most gratefully received by Maj. Buchanan. I.
