The culmination of the festivities that marked the opening of the by- -draulic power plant was the banquet tendered its 350 guests by the OonsoH- • dated Lake Superior Company at the armory in the evening. It was the greatest event in a social way the city '•has ever known, but its importance as a social function became insignificant when compared with the importance of the event.

Marie to Montreal, a drop of 601 feet, were controlled, the energy would be equal to all the coal on the continent as far as now developed. The power now taken at the American «Soo, he said, was equal to one million tons a year, and it was the Consolidated Lake Superior Co. which conceived theidea of using this suspended power to turn it into useful energy. He predicted a population of 50,000 for the Soo inside of three years, and further said that in a few years not an important city in Michigan would be compelled to use coal. Continuing this line of reasoning he said that Canada, which has many ample water powers undeveloped, would see the time when the dominion would not use a pound of coal, even for the propulsion of trains anywhere between Hamilton and Quebec. He said that all doubts about the success of the Lake Superior company had disappeared and assured the people of the Soo that the present work was but the beginning. He closed by thanking the people of the Soo for their cordial support given the company from the beginning, and he was glad to see them get the $500,000 to $1,500,000 a month the company el* pended. --.--11.1 " A ' ' ^-- " • ' '• ' ' ' " Tfce Aesanfter Pled.

In her helpless rage she looked . about for some object to vent her wrath upon, and seeing Horsa Cummins emerging from the small tent in which he had slept, she rushed at him like a virago, crying: "You red-headed thief, where is yer master? I say, where is yer master? Speak or I'll chuck yer head to the snow an' hold it there till ye smother." With a look of surprise he said: "Why, I did not know he had gone." "He is, and took my little friend with him." "Well, that is strange; that beats anything I ever heard! What can he mean?" "I don't know, but there is some mischief in it, and I'll be bound you are at the bottom o' it." "Why, my dear good woman, you do me a very great injustice," began Cummins with mock humility. "Look here!" she yelled. "Don't ye come none o' yer monkey-doodle business around me, for I won't stand It Rack out an' find that gdod-fornuthin' master o' yours, and tell him t' bring that girl back or I'll make Alaska so hot for you the icebergs will melt!" With this threat Kate turned and entered the shanty. "That woman's a regular she tiger!" growled Cummins, as he walked over the hill. Once out of her sight he sat down in the snow to think the matter over. * "Blame me if she ain't a perfect devil of a woman. The boss has put a hard job on me. She knows I had a hand in It Now the youngster don't show any signs o' dyin' very fast I wish he would, but he don't What am X to do with this tiger cat? She'll snatch my eyes out if I go back." Meanwhile Kate went into the small shanty, vowing she would have harmony or know the reason. Her patient was wide awake, his great, dark brown eyes on the door. For the first time Kate realized that he was a young man and quite handsome. "Were you talking to some one out there?" he asked. 'Ten; I was just a-layin' one o* them triflin' critters for not attendin' to hie work. I give him a piece of my mind and 1 reckon after this he'll know what's what!" Kate declared. "Don't your people agree?!' . "Yes; all agree with each other, but none don't agree with me. They go do things without askin' me or consnlttn* me a bit more'n if I was a block o' stone, and had no more senae*n a Kansas badger." Paul, who felt considerably stronger, raised' himself on his elbow and asked: "What have they done, my good friend, without consulting you?" "Pulled up stakes an' gone!

Oh, it makes me hot; but IT1 have harmony yit; see if I don't!" "What do you mean, my good woman?" Paul asked in amassment "Who is this man that deceived you?" "That scamp from Fresno called Lackland!" "Lackland from Fresno!"

Laura protested against this separation from her friend, but i t was all in vain/ When the tents were pitched Laura mat Lackland and asked; — — "Where is my companion, Kate Willis, from whom you promised I should not be separated?" "She ia back with the sick man/' he answered. "It was our wish to bring .her, but the storm came up so sudden- that we had no time to send for her." "Can you not do it now?"

"Not until spring unless we can cut our, way through." Laura went to her tent and wept She realized how helpless she was and began, to distrust. the man who professed to be her friend. "Oh, God," she groaned, "to Thee alone can I now appeal for help! 1 need expect none from these men." Mr. Lackland seemed very much distressed that she was cut off from her female companion, and selected four men to go back, as he said, and bring /ier over the fallen avalanche $f possible. The four selected were Ben Allen, Morris, Ned Padgett and Tom Ambrose. When Lackland took them apart, to give his final instructions, he said: "Take the woman and wounded man back fco Skaguay." "What! An' have him hang us for hold in' him prisoner in the mountains?" asked Allen. "But he is insane. You are four witnesses to one." Ned shrugged his shoulders and muttered something about never wanting to see Skaguay, especially while their late prisoner lived. "Very well, then, start with them toward Skaguay, but don't reach the place. Become lost. You understand how to do that. At least he must not know anything of. the young woman here, and she must have no knowledge that Paul Miller is alive." His final instructions were so clear and imperative there could be no possible mistaking them, and when he had finished they took their departure. The story about the avalanche falling in their rear and blocking up the way was all a clever invention on the part of Mr. Lackland. Lackland went to Laura's tent, his white face wearing a careworn and troubled look. The lines of his features seemed more deeply drawn and his face was expressive of the greatest concern. "Laura—Miss Kean," he began, in his cautious, considerate manner, "I hope you will believe me when I say that this lamentable, accident causes me unaccountable annoyance on your account. When awakened in the night with the intelligence that a storm was coming and the pass would be impassable, I decided that for you I must act at once. If we were aboard a sinking ship and I should rescue you and take you ashore, would you deem it an act of hostility because I did not wait for some companion of yours?" She bowed her head and was silent. In argument, the subtle villain al^ ways beat her, but when left to herself to con over what he had said and commune with her own heart, she instinctively felt the man-was a villain. Intuition, or whatever you may choose to call it, told Laura her lover lived. She was conscious of his presence somewhere in this vast world, and felt as instinctively drawn to him as the needle to the magnet. Days passed and the small party was still in the valley, hemmed in by the mountains and eternal snows. Lackland made frequent visits to Laura after despatching the four men to give an account of their progress in cutting their way through the pass. "Laura," he said, in a low gentle tone, which would have thrilled any other woman, "I have tried to hope against hope for your sake. I have tried to believe your lover lived, but I must yield to facts. All this journey, hardship and suffering, this passing the winter in an Alaskan wilderness is to no purpose." "Is it not?v "Laura, are you very strong?" She gave him a swift, wild look—an imploring glance and gasped: "What do you mean?" "Can you bear a great shock?" "What shock—what is it—speak out, I beseech you!" "Paul is dead!" "It is false!" "It is true!" "What evidence have you?" "The evidence of men who saw him die. He died three weeks ago!" His face was so white, he expressed such concern, that she was strongly impressed with his manner, yet she cried: "What you say can't be true!

But Laura, whatever may happen, believe me, J will aver be your friend. Let me weep with you over your loss!" "Don't don't talk so! You frighten me!" she gasped. "Frighten you, darting?" he whispered. "Prighten yonf Oh, if you knew the pangs of this heart—if you only knew how tenderly devoted I am to yo«?Jt V0ffl only knew how willingly I would change places and lie in the unknown mountain tomb until the sounding of that great trump which shall wake the dead, you would not have the least cause for fear." "Hush-hush! Don't talk so!1' She was stunned and confused by his impassioned speech. Poor girl, alone in an unknown forest, with a madman—no wonder she was frightened. She had started up from the camp stool and taken a step toward the door of the tent as if she would fly, but he quickly put himself before her andsaid: "No, no; don't leave me, dearest, I will not harm you. I will not touch you. I only want to say one word. When convinced our poor, dear Paul is no more, will you, oh, will you look with more favor on my suit?" She found her voice now. The words—the stinging insult fired, her soul—and in a voice in which grief, rage and disgust were strangely blended, she cried: "No, no—a thousand times no! If it was for this you have followed me across the ocean and wilderness you can go—yes, go! I will have no more to say to you—go!" Drawing herself up to her full height, with all the scorn which an injured soul can depict in a handsome face, she pointed toward the door of the tent. Unable to stand before the proud, defiant creature whom he had in his grasp, he started toward the door of the tent, when one of the strangest figures either had ever seen, entered. It was a man fully fifty years of age, his long, white hair and beard evidently many years strangers to either razors, scissors, combs or brushes. In his hand the old man carried a Winchester rifle, the butt of which he placed on the ground, while he leaned on the muzzle, and fixed his curious eyes on the man before him. So piercing was that glance that it seemed to penetrate the very soul of the scoundrel. The old man might.have been taken for a Rip Van Winkle, but for the fact that his arms were all of the latest improvement. Advancing a pace or two and pausing, he leaned on his rifle, glancing from first one and then the other, but uttered not a word. After a moment's amazed silence Lackland gasped: "Who in Satan's name are you?" "The old man of the mountains," was the answer, in a low husky voice, which seemed to chill the blood in the veins of the rascally Lackland. There was firmness in the voice, a steady gleam in the eye, which indicated he had met a man whom it would not do to trifle with. "Where did you come from?" asked Lackland, quaking. "From the mountain," was the answer. "What are you doing here?" Without paying any heed to him, the old man of the mountains, none other than our hermit friend, the captain, turned his eyes upon Laura and asked: "Are you going to the Klondyke?" "I was going," she answered. "And alone?" "A woman companion was with me, but she remained back on the trail twenty-five miles, and an avalanche has filled the trail, so she cannot come." "There has been no avalanche," the old man answered, in his deep voice; "There has been no avalanche!" She quickly fastened her gaze upon the face of Lackland, who began to retreat toward the door. "So you have deceived me, monster!" she began. "If you listen to that old fool you will believe anything. He is crazy!" cried Lackland, and df rted from the tent, leaving Laura aloue with the old man of the mountains. CHAPTER XVt. Driven to Desperate Straits. Once outside the tent, Lackland was like one dazed and confused. He saw a figure coming toward him and recognized It as one of his men. He hurried toward him, saying: "Cummins, you have come at last?" "Yes; they relieved me and told me to report here. Right glad I am of it, too, for if ever there was a fiend in woman form It's that tarmagant down there." (To be continued.) CAPITOL BUILDING SALEM, OREGOM. A Letttr From the Executive Officer of Orefoi. Pe-ru-aa is known from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Letters of congratulation and commendation testifying to the merits of Pe-ra-na as a catarrh remedy are pouring ia from every State in the Union. Dr. Hartman is receiving hundreds of such letters daily. All classes write these letters, from the highest to the lowest. The outdoor laborer, the indoor artisan, the clerk, the editor, the statesman, the preacher—all agree that Pe-ru-nais the catarrh remedy of the age. The stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh as their greatest enemy, are especially enthusiastic in their praise and testimony. Any man who wishes perfect health must be entirely free from catarrh. Catarrh is well-nigh universal; almost omnipresent. Pe-ru-na is the only absolute safeguard known. A cold is the beginning of catarrh. To prevent colds, to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out of i ts victims. Pe-ru-na not only cures catarrh, but prevents. Every household should be supplied with this great remedy for coughs, colds and so forth. The Governor of Oregon is an ardent I admirer of Pe-ru-na. He keepa i i i tinually in the house.

Greene instead of E. C. Shields for prosecuting attorney. We have known Mr. Greene for years and have the greatest respect for him, but have our own reasons for voting for Mr. Shields which have been stated before. The article stated that the DISPATCH was neutral, but in this it was mistaken as the paper always was and is now INDEPENDENT. We are tied to no ones 'apron strings" but always voted for and supported who we thought would make the best officers ^irrespective ot party, and this is the first time our right to do so has been questioned. We believe Mr. Greene altogether too shrewd a polititian and too much ot a gen thai an to have been the author of the article mentioned, nor do we believe he knew of its inception. The only logical conclusion that we and others can come to is, that the j a big vote iu Putnam. editor of the lepublican, being dis emntled because we do not support!

H e will get throws what he has left at us, By referring to articles in the Republican during Mr. Barnes1 canvass for nomination /or state senator, the public can readily see that he conducted binself in a very ungentlemanly manner towards a gentleman from this township who was an aspirant for the nomination for the same office on the same ticket. Mr, Barnes not only published articles reflecting upon his character, but circulated throughout tie county reports which he could not substantiate and when confronted with the statement, sought to screen himself by* methods like the yellow journals that so persistently assailed Michigan's honored statesman, Bussel A, Alper, not having the ccut&ge to mention the names as did Mr. AV»rVv,Jlin mo »un vinV. »™. traducers, but injurrd his VKMI. and%nHtled to re-election, party with insinuation as a weapon.

The DISPATCH has always informed the people rbat its colums are open for any legitimate uae and we deny that it has sought to injure any persons political ambition to the advantage of "Edmund C. Shields, ot Howell, has the past two years made a most excellent officer. He is now running tor bis second term and we predict he will be elected by a large-majority. During the past two .years he has shown his fitness for the position without question. As an office of the law it was his duty to hear complaints and iuvestigate and it he thought the public interest demanded a warrant to be issued then he should prosecute the same: and if he thought it would not benefit the public to issue a warrant then it was his duty to say so and save the people's money. All of these things Mr. Shields lias done to the satisfaction of the people." He served his county fearlessly and ci^ne his full duty two years and is Look Out For Fever.

He was believed to be in opposition to a proposed piece of important legislation in the Interests of which a very well-fixed lobby was at work. The lobbying had been carried on extensively, and a great deal of the work was undertaken by women. Windom was scheduled for s speech on some vital issues oil the day; and it was feared that he was going to turn loose against this special bit of legislation. He never referred to it, however, in the course of a long and striking address; and the lobby, taking that as a favorable indication, sent one of the women to try flattery on him, in the' hope of inducing him to show his hand. She began by expressing fervid admiration of his speech, which was the talk of the dsy in Washington, and then said: "O! I should so much like to have a souvenir of you to take home to Ohio!" "Thank you! Thank you!" reBponded Windom politely. "Could you not—Oh! please do!— give me a lock of your hair?" "Madam," he replied, bowing low, "you may take it all." And with a sweep of his arm he removed his wig and handed it in her direction. Helped Everybody. Gainesville, Tex., Oct. 27th.—Mrs. L. E. Burton, formerly of Eureka, Kansas, has been at 507 Gladstone street, this city, for some time. While here Mrs. Burton has been the means of doing much good by introducing to her sick friends a remedy which it seems is very popular in Kansas, but which has not been very much heard of in this neighborhood. It is called Dodd'a Kidney Pills and in every case where it has been used H has produced wonderful results. Mrs. Burton has good reason to speak'well of Dodd's Kidney Pills, for they hare done much for her and her family. She says: "I must tell everybody what Dodd's-Kidney Pills have done for me and for as many of my friends as have used them. "I had a very bad case of kidney trouble for which I had been doctorjlng for a long time without benefit. I saw Dodd's Kidney Pills recommended. I tried them and was completely cured. My mother and my brother were ill and they took them and were soon well again.

"It must inspire you to know that you are carrying on a. work begun 200 years ago." "The age of the church does add dignity to the work," said the rector, "but it brings a flood of trouble to me." "You mean that the income from the church property is more than you can spend?" she asked. "Not at all," he answered. "There is a mistaken idea afloat about the rector's salary; but I was not referring to that An old church is supposed to have, generally does have, records.

Combs, secretary of the Jefferson club of St Louis, has been meekly buying- cigars and other things for his friends, hoping thereby to keep them from worrying him about a mistake he made while traveling on a railroad train. He and about a score of other St. Louis politicians went to St. Joseph on what was called a fishing trip, making the Journey at night. "Billy" Flynn, one of the party, had brought with him, by the merest chance, a bottle of 5-yearold whisky. It is not believed to have been the only bottle on the train. It happened that when Flynn produced this bottle and gave a nip to one or two of those present, Combs was in the smoking car and when he returned to the sleeper Flynn had gone to bed. Somebody told. Combs of the fine liquor and he at once asked what berth Flynn had. "Lower, No. 11," said one of the party, mentioning a number at hazard.' •• Combs went to the number indicated, peeped in and dimly saw a bottle lying oh the cover. "Ah, ha! Billy's going to take a night-cap all by his lonely," thought Combs. He jerXed aside the curtain, grabbed the bottle with "Here, you've had enough, Billy," and made off. Just then an infant set up a howl and we heard a woman's voice say, in angry tones* "What did you mean, sir?" Combs glanced at his bottle. It was half full of milk and had a rubber attachment He threw it into a berth on the opposite side of the aisle, made a dash for another car. and kept himself quiet as 'he could until the train reached St. Joseph. Then he began to buy things for his friends, and he has been at it more or less industriously ever since.— Chicago Chronicle. The millennium, like most good things, isn't In any hurry about arriving.

Already many of the older plants are out of date and are being replaced by 4he latest refinements in centrifugal pump prsetfoa, Numerous eld pumping plants have been taken out and especially designed apparatus of high* er efh^eucy.has*>een substituted wi$n satisfactory ieiults. Ideas on economic pnmping are also changing with experience. Until recently there was a feeling among irrigator that there was not great economy In pumping against high heads for irrigation work. This idea- has, however, been die* proved by recent practice, and where formerly 16 or XO feet was considered a high enough head, heads of from 70 to 100 feet are now quite common. Previous to the advent of cheap electric ^ower the orehardists in the orange belt Of Tulare county had already made an extended use of pump* *ng for Irrigation purposes. The value of the land- in that locality for orange growing, the dryness of the climate, an*i the impracticability of securing river or artesian water for irrigating purposes rendered pumping a necessity. More or less extensive steam, fc.soline and horse power pumping plants have therefore been quite common in the vicinity of Lindsay and Porterville for a number of years. As might be expected this locality has been one of the first to take up and make effective use of the electric cur rent for Irrigation. Management of Raspberries and Blackberries.

Over 200 tickets have been sold, and the reserved seats are going fast. It is saying none to much when we say that a better course has never been given in tbe county; and the four remaining entertainments at 75 cents would be cheap at f LQO. The first one to come will be Carter, the great magician, and it is needless to say that a better one never visited this county, and the people in-this sec* tion are to be congratulated on haying a chance to see htm. He alone is worth the price asked for tbe entire course. Do not miss taking in the course and thus show to the committee that you appreciate their efforts in bringing these entertainments within your reach. Arrangements are being made to add an extra number to the course, thus making five for 75 cents. The one to be added will be a lecture.

Furthermore, if the matter could not, be sattled in a manner satisfactory to both parties by this arrangement, then the mauer would be presented for the consideration of the state board of agriculture. After considerable discussion, the student body passed a motion accept* ing the proposition of the faculty, and chose to submit the matter to a new discipline committee, which will bo composed of the following members; Prof. U.

Mitchell day was celebrated by all the union miners iu the anthracite.region Wednesday. There was a general suspension of work. A few washeries were working, but their output of coal was very small. There were demonstrations In many of the near-by towns and after the parades the people flocked to Wilkesbarre in large numbers to see the big parade there. At Shamoklu 7.000 miners, headed by the Tenth Regiment band ' and troops, paraded the streets, after which the mine workers were addressed by several labor leaders. All business was generally suspended. "Mitchell day** Is tho anniversary of the close of the last big strike, Oct. 20, 1900. when the mine workers returned to work after being out six weeks, the owners having granted a 10 per cent increase in wages and other concessions. As in the present strike, President Mitchell then conducted the strike for the mine workers. «ft#tffi«*4 cr«t 4 tSuttth,* member *B # e life aft' Sleep*** Mujtpotot^ considerable anJUmy felt ton island orerjtne fact . louffct the Island* Sttr sud- . y disappear In the IaJsfcY A few .completed! * shgRufi&W t a g tfout th« bujWJng^Bgan to su^aefcfr^e^eattre buTlding dropped out of eight.'

The move will mean a consolidation of all the big wholesale houses of the United States on a scale hitherto not dreamed of. The plans of the men interested have been carefully guarded, but enough has leaked out to state that the combine will .probably take in the principal wholesale houses of Detroit, New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Baltimore, Washington, Rochester, N.

Yet through intimately connected with a grimy, bostling and eminent prosaic manufacturing town, tho old place retains more than a halo of romance. Its battles, sieges, fortunes have never been well told, and yet they are well worthy of record. To know all about Aston Hall is to have a liberal education. Visitors see with the eye of faith the vast plain covered with waving woods and fragrant meads which in the time of Prince Rupert extended from the Ball far aa the eye could roach. They hear the blast of the trumpet that announces the Royal visit; they see the steel breastplates of the cavaliers flashing in the son aa the cavalcade sweeps up the grand avenue of chestnuts; they see the white head of Sir Thomas as he stands uncovered at the portal to welcome his king, for tho royalist baronet was a good three-score and ten on that October day fn 1642, when Charles the First arrived at Aston Hall.

When President Roosevelt did not come to Kansas City, says the Journal of that town, he missed the gift of one of the handsomest storm coats that a man has put on his back since the days when the buffalo robes became extinct. The coat will still be his when he comes after it, but it is hung up as an additional inducement to secure a visit to Kansas City from him. The coat is made from one superb " T&Tde ^of a Galloway steer. This is very fine, with long, silky hair covering its shiny, black surface. ' It is lined throughout with quilted brown satin, and the collar, cuffs and front are faced with real beaver fur. The material, so far as the Galloway part Is concerned, is said to be as fine as any ever seen. The steer was especially picked out for this purpose, and the greatest care was exercised in killing him not to mar the hide. It was so well tanned that it is as soft as a piece of cloth, and the long, ASiCON HALL' B r. , „ _ _ \mm Witt n now h •rtdiUon ^ - .

ALCOHOLlSH IN FRAACt The Academy -of Medicine o f Prance at the unanimous request of the chamber of deputies has recently issued, a report strongly condemning the drink used as "aperitifs/ or appetizers, by the bulk of the French middle and lower classes. After eareful analysis Dr. Laborde, who was specially commissioned, declares that every quality of absinth.contains poisonous elements. He discards the fallacy that vermuth, or noyeau, is harmless. Chartreuse is dangerous in a lesser degree and ought only to be used in tiny medical doses for specific purposes. French gin is a form of wood spirit, and the superstition which makes vulneraire a popular remedy in certain emergencies Is perilous to human life. The legislature ought, acording to the report, to forbid the fabrication of these liquors and the immediate enforcing of the law of 1846 against absinth. Dr. Laborde considers that the fiscal revenue loses as much as it gains by fraud and adulteration and by the criminal or mental heredity caused by the terrible spread of alcoholism in France.—Chicago Chronicle. A Thanksgiving Dinner. Heavy eating is usually the first cause of indigeston. Repeated attacks inflame the mucous membranes lining the stomach, exposing the nerves of the stomach, producing a swelling after eating, heartburn, headache, sour risings and finally catarrh of the stomach. Kodol relieves the infiauiation, protects the nerves and cures the catarrh. Kodol cures indigeston,-dyspepsia, all stomach troubles by cleansing and sweetening the glands of the stomach. W. B.

Some of those were with pedestals, and others were without pedestals. There is scarcely a Turkish minister or functionary in Pera or Stamboul ; who is not the possessor of a replica I of the bathing girl. Those with pedestals were reserved .for impor- , tant officials at the sultan's palace 1 of Yildiz. One of the masters of ceremony is reported to have received a present from M. Constans of a "Baigneuse" and after examining it supposed that there must be a handsome present in cash concealed in the pedestal. The pedestal was broken open and found to be empty. The f unctionary^then imagiBed4natthe statue intended for him must have been exchanged by mistake and sent to some other official of lesser magnitude. So, in order to ascertain the truth, the palace official, who happened to meet the French embassador at a diplomatic dinner, remarked, "I wish to thank you for the beautiful present you sent me." The embassador smiled affably in acknowledgment, and the official continued: "The pedestal was also beautiful. It was hollow. And, what is quite rare, I also found that it was empty." •TTf- '%' 9 Political "Liver." seems that in England the Kansas Population Declining. The population of Kansas in March, 1902, as returned by assessors through their county clerks to the state hoard of agriculture was 1,464,569 as against 1,467,808 last year, or a loss of 3,239, a little more than one-fifth of 1 per cent. Fortyseven counties report increases aggregating 23,708, 55 have decreased 26,947 and 3 made no returns. Sedgwick county gained the most, 3,396, followed by Allen, Montgomery and Bourbon, in the order named, and the smallest, 18, is in Hamilton. Cherokee reports by far the heaviest loss, 4,265, and Neosho the least, 4. Atchison, Morton and Wyandotte county figures are those of last year.

A trial was recently made in Austria to decide in how short a space of time living trees could be converted into newspapers. At Elsenthal at 7:35 in the morning three trees were sawed down. At 9:34 the wood, having been stripped of bark, cut up, converted into pulp, became paper and passed from the factory to the press, whence the first printed and folded copy was issued at 10 o'clock. So that in 145 minutes the trees had become newspapers. A child of Mrs. Geo. T. Benson, when getting bis usual Saturday night bath, stepped back against a hot stove which burned inm seveiely. The child was in great agony and his mothet could do nothing to pacify him.

Cummins, though a coward when there was a woman ia the ease, had little fears of men. Creeping stealthily up to the tent he peeped in and beheld the "Old Man of the Mountains," seated on a camp stool before the fair Laura, his rifle between his knees, while she was telling him her story. "Umph! it's old St Nick or an escaped Selkirk. Looks as . '! he bristled with weapons, and Ik don't doubt but he can use 'em.. The boss is right, for a glimpse 0' that face and the arsenal he carries is enough to give a polar bear the ager." Notwithstanding the unprepossessing appearance of the man from' the mountains, he pressed his ear close to the tent to listen to the conversation* between the two. "Why did you come to Alaska, my poor child?" "I came to find the man I love. My Paul, who waB lost." Laura told the old man her story and at the conclusion said: . "He tells me Paul is dead. I do not believe him. He has deceived me on more than one occasion, and he will do so again if it serves his purpose. My heart tells me Paul lives." "My child, that silent monitor is never wrong. Your Paul lives. He is not far away, but he, you and I are in great peril. We must act with caution and secrecy or we will all be dead before morning. These men are desperate criminals. Will you trust me?" "Yes, with my life!" "Pretend as if you had heard nothing, but be ready to act as I direct." "Do you know where Paul is?" "Yes, but he is under a strongguard. Is there no one with the train you can trust? No Indian or Esquimo?" "I do not understand' them nor they me; but I have my trusty servant Ben Holton." "Where is he?" "He was sent to-day to see if the pass could be opened." 'The pass has not been closed," said the hermit. "My dear daughter, sending him off was only an excuse to get your friends out of the ways *>** all is well. Heaven is on your side and directed me here." "Humpht We'll see about that!" growled Cummins, rising from his knees. "They kin put their trust in what they like, but if the boss will let me have my way. Til put mine in about ten inches of cold steel!" He hurried to Lackland, who was sitting on a Bled, his face expressing the deepest anxiety. In as few words as possible he narrated the interview between the mysterious old man and Laura. Lackland made several efforts to speak before he finally succeeded, then, in a voice strangely unnatural, he said: "It has come at last! I hoped I would be spared bloodshed, but there is no help for it Since it must come, let it come. We will do our worst If the old man and Paul Miller are in our way, let them dial" . /•Well, there wilt-be little time to act.1' '•>•*•••..' v> • "ttaowrt* •'•J"' ' ,. . • - , LAeklafid, who'atiBLahrank from the thought of committing murder him; self; began |Q plan tp have his myrmidons do all t£e worlc; and agreed very readily to have reinforcements.

A Groan In the Dark., When Paul Miller leaped from his pallet and: rushed from the door of the hut, he was as Insane as any inmate of a madhouse. "Oh, stop! stop! stop!" shrieked Kate Willis. "Where are you goln'-— where are you goin'?" "Laura! Laura!" he shouted. "Laura! Oh, my goodness Bakes alive, does he know her?" cried Miss Willis, clapping her hands as a new and wonderful thought burst on her mind. "It can't be—it must be—he is the girl's lover! He must be her Paul!" She shouted to some of the Indian porters left to look after the camp: "Stop him!" 4 The Indians were soon on him, had him tied with mooseBkin thongs and carried him back to the shanty, where he was lain on the bed. Kate followed them, sobbing frantically and groaning: "He's dead! They've killed him and I'm to blame for it. Oh, what a fool I've played all the way through!" He breathed and, placing her head on his breast, she discovered that his heart still beat She placed the kettle over the little oil stove and prepared some nourishment, bound up his head, which was slightly bruised, and soon had his eyes open. No sooner was he rational enough to recall what had happened than he began to sob. "Don't take on so!" the kind-hearted woman said. "I tell ye, ye couldn't have got a mile away from here! Ye would have died and ye must know it!" "But Laura, my darling, in the power of that man!" "Say, let's you and I understand each other, an' then there won't be any danger of making mistakes. Are you Paul Miller, who's been dead so long?" "I am Paul Miller and they may have reported me dead." "From Fresno, California?" "Yes, from Fresno, California." "Have you a sweetheart called Laura Kean?" "Yes—yes! It was she you told me had gone on—and I will—" "Now, look here! I am your friend.

Kate told him he must pretend to be a great deal worse than he really was, and she would report that she believed he was going to die. He at once fell in with the plan, with the assurance that as soon as he was strong enough he was to start secretly for the camp where Laura was waiting for her companion to Join them. Meanwhile there was a change- in guard. Cummins was relieved and four men sent to take his place. The Indians went with Cummins, and Kate had four white men to contend with. •• * She often eavesdropped the four men when at Quarters, and gained enough of their plans to realist that they must act promptly. The very night tha "Old Jttoa of the Mountains," as he called himself, so later. Paul Miller was not unconscious at any time, and when he found himself tied, lying on the hard floor of the cavern, he began to calculate on hit chances. . . .

"He was Laura's faithful servant 1" In the anguish of his soul Paul groaned: "Oh, Laura, Laura, why can I not reach your Bide and save you from those fiends?" Paul had deep thoughts, hut kept those to himself. He still had faith that heaven would never permit such an dvil as these unscrupulous men contemplated to succeed. How divine interposition would come he had no idea, but ht believed it would come. At that very moment Paul had a faithful friend of whom he had never thought coming to him. The dog courier that had borne the tidings that he and his companion were perishing in the forest had always shown a strange fondness for him. On the night Paul left, his canine friend was tied with the other dogs, lest he should follow and betray their flight. The dumb brute determined to follow, and when Paul was gone set to work to deliberately gnaw the seal riata in twain. His sharp incisors did the work and his keen sense of smell soon told him the course they had gone, and he finally brought up at the cavern. Paul was lost in-painful thought when he suddenly felt the touch of a cold nose tip on his cheek and became aware that a, friend wat near. The dog sniffed about him *for a moment, and, reaching his wrists, at last realizing that something wat wrong, seized the thongs with his teeth aad began pulling at them. "What is that noise?" atked Kate Willis. "Be quiet!" Paul answered in aa undertone. The sharp teeth of the dog were silently cutting the thongs, which tied his master. In a few minutes Paul's hands were free. Then untying his ankles, he crept to 'where Kate sat against the big rock, her arms tied around it r "Who's that?' she atked. "Keep quiet!" he whispered.' Kate was a bit nervous and very anxious to know if there wat any ehpaoetor escape, but she restrained her natural inclination and said nothing. Paul released her and went next to old Ben Holton, who'was groaning as* it he wat breathing hit last The old fellow, dumb with astonishment for a moment blurted out: "Be ye agoin' t' untie me?"

"Add I wonder which will get nim? My, but it is exciting! Oh, here •comes Fanny now." Fanny looked worried as she came up the steps. She drew a chair up to Mrs. Hyssop and sat down. "Are you tired, Fanny?" the latter -asked. "And did you meet with much success to-day?" Fanny's success depended upon disposing of gaudy fancywork made by ner own nimble fingers, which, to judge from her work, numbered more than the allotted supply of thumbs. Fanny sighed. Mrs. Hyssop knew well what this meant "It is hard, I know," she sympathised, "to get along in this wo'rld. Especially when one is alone," she ended, casting a side glance at the perturbed .Fanny. ' Mrs. Hyssop hoped this would tow Fanny into the matrimonial chahneV And a prologue In this direction did sprout, for the girl sighed again, and said: "I would lose hope altogether if it wasn't for—for* " Fanny's face went red.

A cyclone Seemed to strike Fanny and her fancywork, for both went to pieces—.Fanny on her chair, and the fancywork on the floor at her feet "Oh, Mrs. Hyssop!" she gasped. "I know what I am talking about Fanny," the landlady went on. "In this case no one than myself could give such intelligent advice." Mrs. Hyssop talked on. It was a way she had. She went into details, explained at almost marvelous length. And poor Fanny listened. Finally the landlady halted. Fanny rose from her chair and gathered up her fancywork. "Well; what are you going to do about it?" Mrs. Hyssop asked. "I'm going to do my best to win Mr. Barnston." "I hope you are not angry with me?" Mrs. Hyssop asked. "Oh, no, not In the least," was the reply. "I thank you very much for your advice." Two days later Mrs. Hyssop was again sitting upon the front veranda. A frail creature in white, with a last year's sailor on and a music-roll in her lap, sat beside her. Both were gasing absently across the street "I don't see how I shall get through the summer," the frail creature aaid. "Almost all of my pupils have now gone to the country to stay for the summer. I must make a living somehow." "You poor dear," solaced the feeling widow. "No one lenows that better than I do. When my dear husband died he left me almost destitute. But I thought at once of starting a boarding house, and the first thing I knew Mr. Barnston—" The trail creature suddenly raised her eyes. She was the other girl with whom Mr. Barnston was "taking up,* as his landlady pit i t "Mr. Barnston came, and before long I got more boarders than I could accommodate*" ended Mrs. .Hyssop. - Again she had set the ^all rolling ' Barnstonward, and again her hopes rose, for the fratl creature with the music roll s t once plunged headleng mto the subject of Mrs* Hyssop's first boarder. -'-'•> \ .• * y *Of course," she. said, "you must have noticed that Mr. Barnston has been paying atUatloa to me of late.

She saw the carriage drive up and halt at the stepping-stone. She heard loud talking out on the sidewalk. She saw figures scurrying back and forth. Then she heard a chorus of shouts. A moment later the sound of rice thrown against the carriage, more shouting, and then the sharp bang to of the carriage door. After ward the patter of horses' feet and the sound of wheels on the cobblestones. Then more shouting; Within the vehicle sat two very happy beings. The ride to the station was short, and when they entered their train Mr. Barnston was surprised to see, seated at the other end of the car, a former chum of his. Barnston and his bride had hardly got comfortably seated when his friend left his seat to go to the smoker- As he came abreast of the newly wedded couple he recognized Barnston and halted: "Jove, but I am glad to see you."

This prolific gentleman, an apostle of the Mormon church, is the father of forty living children, and his living grandchildren number 126. Nearly all of these honored the occasion with their presence. The newspaper correspondent delicately suggests the harmonious relations which subsist among the various wives of the patrtlarch. "From the many expressions of love and esteem' it was evident the kindliest and best of feeling exist in the hearts of all members of the family. Many tears of joy were sned when the different mothers narrated the experiences of the early days." Incidentally one is reminded by this story of the strange fact substantiated by all observers, that the Mormon women, who have suffered the most from polygamy, and gained the least advantage, are the most fanatics.1 and incurable adherents of this abominable doctrine.— Chicago Standard.

It at once relieves tbeca* tarrhal kid* neys of the s t a g n a n t blood, p r o - v e n t i n g the escape or serum from t h e blood. Peruna stimulates the kidneys to excrete from the blood the accumulating poison, and thus prevents the convulsions which are sure to follow if the poisons are allowed to remain. It gives great vigor to the heart's action and digestive system, both of which are apt to fail rapidly in this disease. Peruna cures catarrh of the kidneys simply because it cures catarrh whereever located.

A. 0. in Lansing bave been boycotting the classes of that institution, all because the faculty Baw fit to suspend seventeen of the pupils -for participating itf tbe annual class scrap. There are many erroneous reports in regard to the action? of the students. We publish a part of their statement as offered in the State Republican as to why they support the suspended students.. "?irst. because the scrap was encouraged and controlled by the upper c I asses.- "Second, because the majority of thoce suspended were not the active leaders ot the affair,.and some were not even present at all. 4>Tfaird, in tbe face of the statement made by the president that all persons participating in tbe scrap would be suspended or expelled, only seventeen bave been, and these apparantly with*, out regard to their degree of participation in the affair, while others-whoa the faculty knew were more active were retaiued. "Fourth, because the period of aus-' pension varies from one to three years jfor tbe same offense. "Fifth, because the offense was not sufficiently great to justify the punishment inflicted, "In view of these, we demand that in justice to all, the student* suspended be reinstated during good behavior. Our demands are not unjust. We do not ask that these participating in the sorap be giving no punishment, or that the faculty surrender ita authority, but that it exepcise it in, a manner that will be jnst to all. „We do not wish to become dictators, bat we do insist that a.l be treated squarely and fairly, that all shall have equal rights, and that a few shall not be made to do penance for the many.11 A Specialist Coming.

"In a way it's funny, yes," he answered. "There is a. comical side to everyfhtng, even this. A grim humor, Til grant, but, humor nevertheless. Your wife is dead. You want her back—and God won't let you 'have her. You've always had your way with your wealth and that magnificent brain of yours, which whisky cannot dull; with your magnetism, your strength and that beauty a god might envy. And now you're thwart- «ed for the first time—that's what hurts you, Edward. You have bad all things, always, and now one Is taken -away. You think your heart is dead. It isn't. It's sound and well and capable of many loves. But a new •experience has come into your life— •defeat. You will never be quite the same again, for resignation—surrender— works a mighty change in such as you. But the humor of it all lies In your babbling of a broken heart. Yes, It is funny."

I've pried into the hearts of men and women, to see them beat for. others—never for myself. Since childhood I have craved for love and understanding. Never has It come. They said: 'He is a strange boy; so different from the rest' I felt myself an outcast and began to shun my former playmates— ashamed, I knew not why. I tried to act like the others but was too young to play a part. People saw the trick and I felt it ever—like a felon in disguise. Some were indifferent I did not mind that. Some disliked me, with the distrust of ignorance for aught that is strange. I grew accustomed to this in time. Still others pitied, and it cut me like a knife. I writhed a while and then grew strong enough to bear it without a sign. But always J searched and studied and peered into the crannies of the human heart to find wherein the difference lay ; between me and my fellows. All about me were the things for *vJoicht craved— human love and the sympathy of understanding. They were beautiful to me—the sun, the wine, the music of my life. They grew within my BOUI and made me glad—only to see them—but they only added' to the hunger which I dared not show. Sometimes, Edward, when no one else is by, every fibre of my being cries aloud for the touch of a woman's hand, the look of trust, the tender message, the many little things which other men possess, but which have never come to me> No one but you will ever know this. You at least have tried to understand me—you and Margaret, who is dead. I tell you this because I loved her—perhaps, you ought to know altttough she never guessed it. I loved her better than the soul within me—than God himself. Not with the passion which drives men mad, but with that deeper feeling which is repressed and throbs In mighty silence through every thought and purpose while life lasts." "Yes, you hid it from us both," said Edward, dimly, vaguely,—"and 1 think I understand." He arose and began to pace the room. His face was working now with some unfathomed conflict—the calm was gone. Alter a time he stopped before the other's chair and regarded him Intently. "I'll have to ten you now," he said, hoarsely. "You have the right to know. You thougnt that Margaret died of heart disease. All the world thinks so. It does not know the truth—bnt you shall. Read this." Gregory took the letter from the other's hand and spread it out before him. He started as the first line met bis glance and turned to his companion. "Go on," said Edward, "read it through," and Gregory, with a white and silent face, turned to the page again. It ran as follows: "My Husband—It is not for you or other men to judge mo for the deed I am about to do. That is for God, who knows the frailties of women's hearts. Nor is mine the fault that I have not the strength longer to fight the passion I have hid from you thus far. You are so strong, so independent of a life like mine; you will not miss me as a weaker man might do—nor will you blame me when you know the truth. I am casting away my life. In a little phial, now within my hand, there rests a 'Thank God, my husband, that he was hoaoraUe—or thai he did not seev For, had he bidden, me I should have fallen at bu feet I should* may* hap, have brought dishonor to your name, for love like tow It greater than the things of earth.

"They were terrible, those battles in the night They' sapped my strength until you thought me ill. If you could ever know the struggle that it cost to greet him then, again-, with smiling face—to still the beating of my heart and play the friend as I have done with other men; if you could only guess the fierce, wild agony of that unspoken love—you would not blame me for this deed, nor for unfaithfulness in thought to you. my sake, you must not blame him, either. He did not know it, and it is no fault of his that women love him. God made it so. Try to understand him better, Edward. Look beneath the surface and you will love him, too. "Good-bye, my husband.

Physicians Sorry That the Gfame Is Declining In Favor In Fnnct, Somebody has discovered that poo* pie in France are not playing billiards so much as they did formerly. Over this announcement has arisen a lamentation. Physicians have Joined in It as well' as lay admirers of the game. They declare that its disappearance would be a misfortune from a sanitary point of view. The game, they say. gives Just the exercise they need to a great number of people who without it would take no exercise at all. While involving so severe physical exertion, it keeps the muscles in shape, stimulates the circulation, helps the digestion and requires Just enough mental effort to give the nervous system a rest from the ordinary worries of life. In proof of all of which they cite the good spirits usually exhibited about a billiard table. For elderly people, for the stout who cannot take much exercise, billiards is pronounced an excellent tonic. So the friends of the game are preaching a revival of its popularity.

To-day Mr. Ayers !s a> well as man could wish. He tells the following story: "About a year ago I was at West Camp, sick with Brlght's Disease and without hope of ever being better, when an old gentleman from Bath, N. Y., advised me to take Dodd's Kidney Pills, telling me they had cured him of the same disease. "I had tried so many remedies that I was past hoping and told him so, but when he. bought me a box of Dodd's Kidney Pills and coaxed me to try them I did so just to humor his whim. "That was the means of saving my life. I took that box and half a doz an more. Thanks to that old man and Dodd's Kidney Pills, I am cured."

The old man of the mountains, or hermit, as we have known him, watched Laokland across- the river, but did not see him meet Cummins. Knowing it would be some hours before he would return, he did. not consider haste necessary. "We will be gone, my dear child, before that man returns," be said, 4n a kind, fatherly way, that won the heart of the girl. "What do you propose?" ahe asked eagerly. "Across this frozen river, the ice of wVlch will bear your weight, as I have tested it myself, we will find a deep, dark cavern. Now, we will cross the river and I leave you there—" "Why leave me there? Why not take me on to Paul?" she asked. "Because you would be a hindrance to my .rescuing him. No, no! You must consent to stay in the cavern or we will have to abandon the project of rescuing Paul." "I will—I will do anything." They began the search for -capsules, lozenges and buttons of compressed and desBicated food, which took up little space and the weight .trifling in comparison to the original food. -Ail this took time, and there came ,one delay after another, until hours had glided by before they were ready to depaTt At last everything was ready. "Now, my dear child, wo am ready to go. I hope you won't find this journey too much for your strength." "Don't consider that for' a moment." "Hark! Thear footsteps approaching!" "Some one comes!" ahe gasped, turning deathly pale. The men approaching the, house were Lackland, with 'Cmnmins, Allen, Padgett and Ambrose. They had seized pine knot torches and were creeping stealthily toward the tent The keen eyenof the hermit had seen them And he hastily formed a little barricade, behind which he crouched, a ^revolver in each hand.

The reuinon of the sea captain and the faithful sailor was mild compared to a reunion that quickly followed. Another party was coming across the ice. The long, Arctic night was spent and the opening door of dawn was filling all the eastern Heavens with glory, when Paul, Kate, old Ben and their faithful canine friend sprang from the ice and hurried up the hill to the narrow valley, where the camp Paul led the party, with Kate close behind. The first object he recognized was his faithful old friend, who had long mourned him as dead—Glum Ralston. The meeting can be better imagined than described. He was told that Laura was inside with Clarence and the long-lost captain, who was making desperate efforts to explain something which had befuddled everybody, and Paul tumbled head first into the tent, the worst befuddled of any one, and embraced Laura and Clarence, and for several moments the only rational being in the party was the faithful unknown dog, who sat on his haunches and panted. It was fully an hour before everybody inside and everybody outside were ;at All themselves. Paul afterward had a dim recollection of hearing a voice very much like Glum Ralston's roar: "Ain't you Kate Willis, my Kate?" and then he heard a voice which sounded very much like Kate crying: "Ain!t yoa Jack Ralston, my sailor boy?" Then taere was a collision, explosion, and the hub-bub Increased. At last, when all had time to recover, Kate and Jack, as she still called him, entered the tent, she declaring she would never permit him to leave her again.. Jack explaining that he was stay log in Alaska in compliance with an order from his captain to the effect that he was to never leave until he returned. "And he has returned," said Jack. "He has come back and is here now; and Kate, I am ready to go." The man whom we have known "as the hermit captain said: "My friends, this is the happiest day I ever knew. But one person more is necessary to make the retmion complete, and my cup of happiness run \ over. I want to ask some questions, and then make some explanations. First, is your tame Paul Miller?" ^*Yes, sir;" Paul answered. '"Who was ycur father, and where is he?" "My father was Captain Joseph Miller, who was lost before I can remember in Aiaska or some of the islands of the Bering Sea." "Do yoa knew the name of the ship he laat sailed iv, and from what port?*' "Mother told me he sailed from San Francisco in a sealing schooner called the Eleanor." "Jack—Jack! Have you been with him all these months and not know this?" Glum Ralston leaped to his feet with a startled yell and cried: "Omck-laahr A IfiQer—soa of my captain! Why, by the name of Neptune, didn't ye tell me ye ted some > other naaseVn Crack-lash ?" r^^Qfl^RmS ^ Paul was dumbfoonded. He had •track si blow a*\fciii hea4 wlthr his* *e*rd a hint that tae hermit was his Tb* e t t ^ m m j * -father, but the oW man had 90 »**- didn't know he was my son they could not' force the secret from me that way." "Well, cap'n, yon played your part very fine, an' now that we have entwined 'em, an' all goin' home soon, can you find the place where the gold Is cached?" "If I had a certain walrus hide I could; It is the one my son took from the cave.** "I gave it to you, Glum." "And I've got it safe at camp." In the midst of their rejoicing Paul did not forget the poor wretch who was lying in the cavern mangled and torn by the "dog. Clarence and two Indians went and brought Morris to the camp, where Kate carefully dressed his wounds. He was the only man living save Belcher, who had robbed Paul, and told them where the treasure could be found, also making a full-confession ofnis-crimei-admitting that Lackland had hired them to detain Paul in Alaska until he, Lackland, should win a certain lady's hand and heart The second day after the startling incidents narrated above the little camp was broken, all the dog sleds secured and porters, packers and Esquimaux set out for the Klondyke. Providence favored them, for there was no snow fall during their march. At the Klondyke Ethel Berry gave them a reception, in her shanty. Her amazement was unbounded to learn that Laura was in Alaska, and still, strangest of all, Paul had found a father,who had been dead twenty years. Kate went to Dawson City and established her laundry, though Jack tried" hard to dissuade her. She said until she was Jack's wife she would support herself, and as "there was no priest or parson on the Klondyke she saw no chance to marry until they left. Kate did a big business that winter, and as soon as the spring of 1897 came and the pass was open our friends went to Juneau and took a ship for San Francisco. , Paul had not only recovered his gold, but much more, which he took out that winter, while his father recovered his gold. Jack Ralston was worth seventy-five thousand dollars, while Clarence Berry and his sweet, brave little wife were rich several times over. It was several months before the real fate of Lackland and his company ions was known. After their failure to abduct Laura Kean the three men dared not return to the land of civilization, but went to Sheep Camp. One morning, while the camp was still buried in sleep, there came a peculiar rumbling sound from the southwest side of the mountain, and, like an avalanche, the great glacier came rumbling, thundering down, burying tents and shanties and men bfmeath it. Some fled and a few escaped, but when the debris had cleared away several were missing. Buried deep under the landslide were Lackland, Cummins, Allen, Morris and Bother. Some one had gone on to Fresno and broke the news to Mrs. Miller by degrees. She conld at first hardly believe her son alive, and it was still more difficult to believe the husband, whom she had for twenty years thought dead alive. When she was told that she would see them that very day, she swooned for ojy. She was at the depot when the train came in and Captain Miller, shaven and shorn, and dressed in the garb of civilization, looking twenty years younger than when a wanderer in the Klondyke, stepped from the train to receive his fainting wife in his strong arms. There was a wedding—of course there was. No story would be complete without a wedding, and in this there were two, for Jack Ralston would insist on being married to bis faithful Kate on the same day Laura and Paul were wedded. Clarence and Ethel Berry, who contributed so much to bring about the happiness of their friends, were present, and declared they never enjoyed but one other event more— that was their own wedding, of course. As these young people are wealthy beyond their fondest dreams, aa they have tasted the hitter cup of poverty, and take delight in making others happy, it is safe to predict that their: millions will not be squandered in frivolity, hut the world will be better by their having lived, toiled and suffered. May they live long to enjoy the golden riches taken, from the treasure house of the Ice King on the Klondyke. w TbevBnd'. ~' ~"~A:aeiroiig^!iritatAo~inothgrf often on ih» Twgx? of hysterica, 1§ unfit to care lor children; it rains a child's disposition and reacts upon herself.

Two German aeronauts, Dr. Miethe and Lieutenant Hildebrandt, recently had a remarkable experience in the heart of a thunderstorm. They ascended from Tegel at 3 o'clock in the afternoon and, passing through a mist, came suddenly into a thundercloud. From a height of 650 feet the balloon was shot a mile upward, and then as suddenly it dropped half a mile. They make the curious statement that although they did not see the lightning they were deafened by the thunder, while pelted with rain, hail and sleet. The talloon leaped and plunged so swiftly that at times the car was on a level with the gas bag and the tow rope was above their heads. After about half an hour of this experience the balloon fell from a height of 7,200 feet, descending upon a thick wood of beeches, branches of which broke the fall and saved the lives of the adventurers. ftOTlCE.

T n, <HMkMj CeBsteruatloQ aaata* Saloon Mttu A decision of the United States court of appeals recently. sitting at St. Louis, has created great consternation among saloonkeepers and they are asking, "What next?" The decision of that court is to the effect that the saloonkeeper may be held responsible for tbe death of a "patron o£ his place in the event that death occurs from an accident resulting from the inebriated condition of tbe patron. The federal circuit court in Neb. took this position in tbe case of Walker vs Moser and its judgement has just been reaffirmed by the appleate court. Walker was killed by being thrown from a buggy while drunk and his widow Foed Moser at whose saloon he became intoxicated. Such precedents are still comparatively rare, but each new case won in the higher courts helps to build up a body of legal decisions that will ultimately force unscrupulous saloonkeepers to cease selling to habitual drunkards or be driven out of business by suit for damages. It would be a great service to law and order and indirectly to temperonce, if the friends of temperance would take every oppor tunity to bring Buch suits for injuries or loss caused by the sale of liquor and furnish the funds and legal talent to carry them through to'a sucsessful conclusion. The grand lodge of Masons of Georgia recently took action which will result in every Masonic liquorseller, except druggists, being expelled from the order unless they quit the business. This is in line with what is now the trend in all respectable secret societies. One after another in every part of the country, is tabooing liquor-sellers. Eev. Chas. S.

"Hirudo day" is an anniversary in New Jersey that is never heard of elsewhere. It is the day on which the men who gather leeches for medical use go to town to collect their pay, leaving it till this particular day. Leech buying is not the work for a novice. The question of price is not at all involved in the game, as the leech catchers have the only trust permitted on New Jersey soil, and they fix the price per dozen at which they will sell. Their prices range from $1.80 to $3.80 per dozen this year, according to the age of the leech. A leech under the age of eighteen months is not a medicinal leech His suctorial proboscis is not fully developed until be passes seventeen months, although he acquire^ a full set of semicircular teeth in his jaws at the age of one year.

Now I want the reader to grasp every word of the following: A friend of ours, a Mr. Mc- Gaund, knowing that my kidneys were the real cause of the entire trouble, brought a host of Doan's Kidney Pills to the house, and requested me to give them a trial. I had taken s o much medicine that I w a s . m o r e than discouraged, and had little, if -any, faith in any. preparation. However, I reasoned if they did not do me good they could not possibly make me worse, so I began the treatment. After the third dose, I felt, something dart across me like a flash of lightning, and from that moment I began to improve. The pain in my back and kidneys positively disappeared, the kidney secretions became free and natural. At present I rest and Bleep well, my appetite is good, my weight has increased from 118 to 155 pounds, and my flesh is firm and solid. My lriends actually marvel at the change i n my appearance.

I will be only too pleased to give minuter particulars of my case to any one calling on me, not, of course, out of idle curiosity, but if they really have kidney complaint and want to know what course to pursue to get relief."

Most people think the success of Peruna depends upon the use of advertisements. Undoubtedly the advertisements help some. But by far the greatest number of people who hear of Peruna, have their attention called to it by a friend. Some one gets cured of chronic catarrh by Peruna. After he is certain of his cure, he is sure t o recommend it to his friends. Friend recommends it to friend and the news spreads from tongue to tongue.

When a laxative is needed the remedy which is g i v e n to them to cleanse and sweeten and strengthen the internal org-ans on which it acts, should be such as physicians would sanction, because its component parts are known to be wholesome and the remedy itself free from every objectionable quality. The one remedy which physicians and parents, well-informed, approve and recommend and which the little ones enjoy, because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its beneficial effects, is— Syrup of Figs—and for the same reason it is the only laxative which should be used by fathers and mothers. Syrup of F i g s is the only remedy which acts gently, pleasantly and naturally without griping, irritating, or nauseating and which cleanses the system effectually, without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the old-time cathartics and modern imitations, and against which the children should be so carefully guarded. If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood, strong, healthy and happy, do not g i v e them medicines, when medicines are not needed, and when nature needs assistance in the w a y of a laxative, g i v e them only the simple, pleasant and gentle—Syrup of F i g s . Its quality is due not only to the excellence of the combination of the laxative principles of plants with pleasant aromatic syrups and juices, but also to our original method of manufacture and a s you value the health of the little ones, do not accept any of the substitutes which unscrupulous dealers sometimes offer to increase their profits."

Several car-loads of poles and supplies were ordered and work will commence as soon as tbey arrive, in hopes of getting at least 30 miles of line in operation this season. Those who are taking stock and helping push this line will of course, be the first to receive the benefit, and all are looking forward to tbe time when we can be in connection with those about us without contributing to a corporation.

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

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

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

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

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

Well, on the night of which we spoke in opening this sketch an hour after the performance closed at the Lyceum, any one strolling into Giacomo's might have seen nearly the entire party of actors and actresses who had entertained them so hilariously, eating and drinking and quarreling and gossiping before the bar or at the unclothed tables. And apart from all at an obscure little table in a corner sat the one of all the troupe who had inspired the greatest laughter and displayed the greatest abandon—Billy Pepsin. His face was heavy with gloom and the expressive eyes which had flashed so significantly and so wickedly at the audience were dull and introspective. He was eating his chops alone and moodily washing them down from a mug of ale at his elbow. He paid no attention to the sallies of the others who now and then sought to arouse him from the cloud that seemed to envelop him, but sat on alone puffing his pipe after his simple repast was finished. And so he had sat and so acted for many months—months which had now grown into years, aa was recalled by Alphonse Ginaud, who did the wonderful acrobatic act, and who had been associated with Billy for many years off and on. "Too bad, aint It," «ald be tossing a linger toward the solitary figure. "I'd like to see a woman who could do it to me. He never has smiled oft the stage since Sally left him, HI bet the drinks.

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

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

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

From the Atchison, Kan., Daily Globe:—This is the season when the woman who knows the best remedies for croup is in demand in every neighborhood. One of the most terrible thing in the world is to be awakened in the middle of the night by a whoop from one of the children. The croup remedies are almost as snre to be lost in case of croup, as a revolver is sure to be lost in case of burglars. There used to be an old fashioned remedy for croup, known as hive syrup and tola, but some modern mothers say that (chamberlain's Cough Remedy is better, and does not cost so much. It causes the patient to "throw up the phlegm" quicker, and gives relief in a shorter time. Give this remedy as soon as tue croupy cough appears and it will prevent the attack.

The remarkable progress of prohibition in Texas during the last few months is awakening widespread attention. That the great liqnor combine is becoming alarmed for this territory is evedent- The progress of the temperance cause is attributed to "long haired preachers and short hai red women," to fanaticism and everything except the true cause. For one I am quite willing that it may be charged up to preachers, women and the churches' though there are other forces at work sympathetically with these. The present movement is the result of much education. All moral movements have their genesis and their strength is sound education. The great campaign in the eighties was not a final defeat but a postponement. It sowed the seed of moral reform broadcast over our wide territory. Since then the forces have been gathering. The very method of defeat, as it was called, were education. It was revealed that there was a coalition of vicious forces, dangerous, not only to public morals, but dangerous to law and every interest to civilization. Many laid the lesson to heart Many who went wrong fifteen years ago saw by their connections and the methods employed, the degradation and danger in the great liquor combine. The backward look has bad a converting power on them. The agitation of the past had one effect always helpful to the right side. It caused people to look at the saloon. It belonged to the dark and not to the light Its works are such as that secresy is necessary, if it is to live. Hence the screens and the back room. Every agitation of the liquor business makes for prohibition. In a 2 * * * • * • « • » ^^^^We^S^^S, ..' ^"^^^S*W^^m! . * * * ^ S * ^ ^ ^ • * » * " •cheel's prompt Reply.

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

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

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

It stood, like Van roeghs,^ w©6 T»l staw, 1 ^ off. ^ Heemskirk's, at the head of a garden sloping to the river; and there was a good deal of pleasant rivalry ahout these gardens, both proprietors having impressed their own individuality upon their pleasure grounds. The space between the two houses was an enclosed meadow; and this afternoon, the grass being warm and dry and full of wild flowers, Katherine followed the narrow footpath through it, and entered the Semple garden by the small side gate. Near this gate was a stone dairy, sunk below the .level of the ground—a deliciously cool, clean spot even in the hottest weather. Passing it, she saw that the door was open, and Madam bemple was busy among its large, shallow, pewter, cream-dishes. She was beating some rich curd with eggs and currants and spices; and Katherine, with a sympathetic smile, asked delightedly: "Cheesecakes, madam?" "Just cheeaacakes, dearie." "Oh, I am glad! Let me fill Some of these pretty little patty-pans." "I'll do naething o' the kind, Katherine. You'd be spoiling the bonnie silk dress you hae put on. Go to the house and sit wi' Mistress Gordon. She was asking for you no' an hour ago. And, Katherine, my bonnie las* sle, dinna gio a thought to one word that black-eyed nephew o' here may say to you.

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

Bat Katiuyine had no time to deftad Iwetelf; for, with Ue caf airy <*» in *J* hand and a low bow, Capt Hyde entered th© room. In a few mftentes afterward she wat going eWft the terrace steps with him; and - waa looking Into herface with ahinjjag eyea, and whispering the common* 'dft wurda in such an enchanting manifest K seemed to her as if her feet, -touched the low, white steps, she was some sort of glorified Katherine Van Heemskirk, Who never, *aerer, nerer could be unhappy again. They did not go on the river. Capt Hyde did not want a third party near, im any capacity. The lower steps were shaded by great water beeches, nod the turf under them was green and warm. A aweeter hour, a lovelier maid, man could never hope to find; and Capt. Hyde ^waa not one to neglect hie opportunity. "Let us stay-here, my beloved," he whispered. "I have something sweet to tell you. Upon mine honor, I can keep ray secret no longer/' The tenocent ehild! Who could Wame her for listening to it?—at first wkh a tUtte fear and a little reluctance* fcat gradually resigning her heart to the charm of his soft and his fervent manner, unehe gave him the promise be far—love that was to be for him atone, love for him alone among ail the sons of men. *Vfhat an enchanted afternoon It was* how all too'quickly LI fled away, one golden, moment after another! In a few minutes Joanna and the welder came in. He had called for her on his way home; for he liked the society of the young and beautiful, and there were many hours in Which he thought Joanna fairer than her sister. Tften tea was served in a pretty parlor with Turkish walls and colored win- «kVs, which, being open into the gardeji* framed lovely living pictures of blossoming trees. Every one was eatips and drinking/" laughing and talklag; so Katherine'a unusual silence was unnoticed, except by the elder, a^fto indeed saw and heard everything, .anal who knew' what he did not see sued hear by that kind of prescience 0 wfcicfc wise and observant years at- <tSBBL 4 Joarma was talking to Neil Semple in the recess of a window; but Neil's face was white with suppressed anger, and* though he seemed to be listening to her, his eyes—full of passion—were Jbted upon Hyde. Perhaps the young soldier was conscious of it; for he occasionally addressed some trivial resaark to. him, as if to prevent Neil losing sight of the advantages he had .over him. T h e vera, air o' this room is gunpowdery," thought the elder; "and ane or the other wfll be flinging a spark o' passion into it ,and then the deil will be to pay. Ill e'en tak' the lasses name myseT; and I'll speak to Joris for his daughter—as good now as any other time." Then he said in his blandest tones, "Joanna, my dearie, you'll hae to tell Keii the; rest 0' your tale the morn; and, Katharine,^ put awa' now that bit o* bnsy idleness, and don your hoods and mantles, balth o' you. I'm going to ta' yott hame, and I dinna want to «et TV 7 deftthe wi' the river mist." "Piay, sir,'' said Hyde, "consider me at your service'.

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

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

Joris and Bram.4i*£us*ed the bustoesa of the dar; 4Cs*beriBir-was fnfl of her Tether, I like to see tb* S&lish lady; and she is teaching me the new stitch," "Schoone Lammetje! There are many other things tar bettor for thee to learn, to these things the best of ail good teachers is toy mother.' "I can do these things also, father. The lady loves me and will be unhappy 4»ot to ftee xae^'- - "Then, let her come here and. see thee. That will be the proper thing. Why not? Always honor thyself, as well as others. That is the Dutch way; that Is the right way. Mind what I tell thee." His voice had gradually grown sterner, and he gently withdrew his hand from her clasp, and rose as a man pressed with affairs. When he had left the room Lysbet instantly began to order the wants of the house. Katherine still sat at the table; her eyes were cast down, and she was arranging—without a consciousness of doing so—her bread crumbs upon her Delft plate. Roused from her revery she comprehended in a moment how decisive' her father's orders were intended to be. Tet in this matter she was so deeply interested that she Instinctively made an appeal against them. "Mother, my mother, shall I not go once more to see Madam Gordon? So kind she has been to me! She will say I am ungrateful, that I am rude, and know not good mariners. Yes, mother, I may go once. A young girl does not like to be thought ungrateful and rude." "More than that, Katherine; a young girl should not like to disobey a good father. You make me to feel astonished and sorry. Here is the key of the best parlor; go now and wash carefully the fine china-ware." So Lysbet turned and left the room. She did not notice the rebellious look on her daughter's face, the lowering brows, the resentment in the glance that followed her, the lips firmly set to the mental purpose. "To see hei lover at all risks"—that was the purpose; but how best to accomplish it was not clear to her. s She 'lifted the key given her and went to the parlor. It was a large, low room, with wainscoted walls, and a big tiled fireplace nearly filling it. The blinds were closed, but there was enough light to reveal its quaint and almost foreign character. The oval tables were full of curious bits of china, dainty oriental wicker-work, exquisite shells on lacquered trays, wonderfully wrought workboxes and fans and amulets. As she moved about among the strange carven toys and beautiful ornaments, she couoid think only of him—of his stately manner and dark, handsome face. She recalled every word he said to her as they sat under the water beeches. More vividly still she recalled the tender light jn his eyes, the lingering clasp of his hand, his low, persuasive voice, and that nameless chajan of fashion and culture which perhaps impressed her more than any other thing. Among the articles she had to dust was a square Indian box with drawers. It had always been called "the writing box," and it was partly filled with paper and other materials for letterwriting. She stood before the open lid thoughtfully, and a sudden overwhelming desire to send some message of apology to Mrs. Gordon came intCner heart She could write pretty well and she had seen her mother and Joanna fold and seal letters; and, although she was totally inexperienced in the matter, she determined to make the effort. All difficulties were overcome, one by one; and the following note intrusted to the care of Diedrlch Becker, the old man who worked in the garden and milked the Cows: "To Mistress Col. Gordon— "Honored Madam: My father forbids that t come to see yon. He thinks yon should upon my mother call. That yon will judge me to be rude and ungrateful, I fear very much. But that is not true. I am happy, indeed. I think all the day of you. "Your obedient servant, "Kathertoe Van HsjaWWrk,* rrb*^Bft continued.} <t- ^What- bare they doner A.

There was no enthusiasm manifest as Professor Houck sat down, and he thought: "My gracious, what have I done? Possibly I have offended these good people by unconsciously using slang. Well, it's done now." Then, turning to the interpreter, who sat by him, he asked, "My friend, how did you interpret that last phrase of mine?" "Oh, very easily,*' said the Porto Riean. "I told them that vou said it will be warm this evening." And the professor felt much relieved, and he also found why there was no enthusiasm. A Car*.

She climbed the tree and reached the big iimJb after encountering numerous bruises'and scratches, which, howaver, she did not heed.

The limb bent lower and lower still, until Jimson had a tiny branch in his grasp. "Now, hold on tight," the widow commanded, "and keep still. I am going back/and when my weight is off the limb it will spring up and pull you out." So saying, she began to crawl backward cautiously, lest a single slip should throw her off her balance and her efforts prove In vain. The broken, jagged twigs and branches caught her dress and pierced her flesh, but with resistless force she . bore her whole weight backward against them and tore herself free, reaching the trunk in safety, whence she dropped panting to the ground. Jimson worked the stieky earth and sand into the consistency of gruel, by turning and twisting, until finally the downward suction ceased and, the upward spring of the tree branch began to draw him up and out Then, climbing hand over hand along the limb as it bent back to its normal position, the woman encouraging him all the way, he finally reached safety, and, dropping from the limb to the ground, broke his leg and fell unconscious. When he recovered his senses he was lying on a couch In the widow's little parlor, the widow herself bending over him with a bowl of steaming tea which she made him drink. "I must go home, widow," said Jimson trying to stand up and walk, but falling to the floor, groaning with pain. lifting him back upon the couch, the widow bade him lie still while she went for the doctor. "H-m-m, a very bad case," remarked the doctor after an examination of the fractured member. "Crushed, twisted and broken. How did It happen?" When put in possession of the facts, the doctor burst out into a roar of laughter. "What a sight! What a isightr*-he exclaimedaa spon asjift. recovered his breath. "What do you mean?" demanded the widow, bridling up. "Why, your crawling out on that limb and crawfishing back again." The imaginative doctor again broke out into a fit of laughter, whicbTwas sudy denly checked by a sound box on the ear administered by the angry woman. "You're here to fix this poor man's leg, not to insult a woman!" she snapped out with fire in her eyes. "Widow, I beg your pardon," said the doctor humbly as he turned to his patient "It will be six weeks before he can crawl about on crutches, and two months before he can attempt to' walk," waa the fiat when the operation had been completed. "Six weeks? Two months?" groaned Jimson. "Le'me go home. I must go home," and he attempted to rise, compelling the doctor to hold him down on his back. "But the cow, widow, I must git the cow," said he plaintively. "Never mind the cow, Mr. Jimson, said the widow; let it go to Halifax. You've got to lie still for six weeks or two months. V\\ take care of you. And she did taae care of him, pulling'him through until he was able to walk. ' Not long afterward, about ten before Thanksgiving day, the widow's little, house was burned to the ground, all she* had In the worlJ being consumed with it When the bucket brigade finished fighting the fiery demon, the latter had the best of it—there was nothing left but the widow—yes, there waa the hencoop, but that was not a fit habitation for her, although she - thought she might fix it up and get along all right until she could afford to build some sort of a shanty to protect her frets the inclement weather. She refused atl offers of aid* but Squire Hobbe laid down the law and she was compelled to yield. "You will go over to my house and stay there until we nave built you another house," said he with a determination that overcame her resistance. "D'ye thins, we're going to let you live in a hen-coop?" At a. town meeting, called for the purpose, it was resolved to have* the widow's house rebuilt ready for occupation on Thanksgiving day. Some furnished money, others contributed materials, and others still volunteered to do the work. There were delays and setbacks, however, as is usual whenever any work is promised at a certain, fixed time, so that when Thanksgiving morning arrived the problem of completing the Job became knotty, but having been promised and undertaken, it had to be finished. By hard thinking 'Squire Hobbs conceived the idea; and to carry it into effect, he summoned his fellow townsmen and laid the matter before them. "You women folks," said he by way of consulting them, "you women folks go home and cook up what you've got in the house just the same as if you were going to get dinner—Turkeys, chickens, geese, ducks, anything, and cranberry sauce. The pumpkin and mince pies are already ripe on the pantry shelves. Then bring everything here by 4 o'clock. We men will finish this house for the widow by that time, and we'll all eat our Thanksgiving dinner on the spot. It will be a house warming Thanksgiving dinner and an old-fashioned barn-raising combined. There'll be board tables laid outside for those who can't get inside the house. You boys and girls, get all the boxes and barrels you can find—there's a lot of cerdwood in my back yard that won't be missed—and If we-don't finish eating by dark, we'll have bonfires to see by and warm up up. Widow, you just sit or stand around and boss things, it being your house. No remarks, please! Scatter! * The house was on hand at the hour named, so were the women and the combined Thanksgiving dinners. Of course, the house was not big enough to accommodate all the merry crowd that wanted to get Into it, but those who could not squeeze in gathw mm AFTt*-Om*«*lt OAMfia, Amusements to Please the VsaesjtsfO Of the Family. ered aroundit as cioseas they could to eat and hear the speeches of the notables, who practiced oratory until tne small boys notified them that the After the thanksgiving dinner is eaten and everyone quits the dining room. * or jpartor as the case may be, a disdjumteg query UVsssg»est«d to the head of the family, "l^at stafi # • do ^ to amuse the children?"

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

As she stood thus, in the bright ntoanlac sunshine, a flock of nearly a htftdred geese issued from the barn* yard and marched past her, on their Wsjr to the Irrigation ditch. iahft came leisurely up from the 4tsjha, >> **it fs nearly time those geese were pjoked," be remarked. "Yes," she anred listlessly. "I believe we will re fifty dollars' worth of feathers year, mused John. Jennie started. "Fifty dollars! ly that was jast what Cousin Kit* auk cost—making and all! Fifty if" and as Jennie looked and iht a sadden plan formulated it* in her brain. She would have the >y for the feathers herself. Hadn't lie set and tended them? Hadn't she and fed them during; the winter? And now she was ex* to pick them! Surely she had led the money! Barir Monday morning, John start* ed^ on a twenty-five mile horseback ride, to buy calves, and drive them name. He would be gone all week. This was her chance. Aa soon as he was out of sight, Jennie called Andy, the hired man, and with his assist* aace the geese were one by one taken from the poultry house, and refctoed of their pretty coats. Hour af£er hour they worked—-all other work for the day being neglected. When night came a row of wheat sacks filled with feathers, stood on .the barn floor. Tuesday morning saw Jennie and Ajpdy driving to Emporia, with the atfefcfl of feathers piled in the wagon behind them. Arriving at Emporia, )ey drove immediately to a produce who purchased the feathers, lat a bound Ler heart gavo when dealer counted the money into her hands. Fifty-five dollars! With a smile of exultation Jennie -started for Cousin , Kitty's, telling Aady to return home and come after Jier on Thursday. '"Kitty, can you go shopping with me this afternoon?" Jennie asked at dinner. "Why, certainly. I should be glad to go. Are you going to get a spring dress?" you about it some other time.

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

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

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

The belief that the steamer has met with disaster Is atrengthenea ny the fact Cnat tne etetfmer Rockefeller, which arrived, reported passing through wreckage Off Standard Rock. This is supposed tb be from the missing boat. The accepted theory is that the Bannockburn foundered in mid-lake and went down with all on hoard.

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

When a subscriber rang up some one he wanted, he was answered from four different offices at once. It will be good news to the mothers of Bmall children to learn that croup can be prevented. The first sign of croup is hoarseness. A day or two before tbe attack tbe child becomes hoarse. This is soon followed by a peculiar rough cjaurh.

And who oak blame a young girl ii ska listens and believee, when listen lag and believing mean tq bar perfacf happiness? Not women who have ever stood, trembling with love and joy, close to the dear one's heart. Ii they be gray-baired, and on the very shoal of life, they must remember still those momenta of delight—the little lane, the flre-nt room, the drifting boat that ia Jinked wiULtbem. Ii they be young and lovely, and-have but to aay, "It was yeaterday," or, "It was last week/' still better they will aolable without the dear creatures society,' seemed to the fond mother the ;. moot proper and natural of feelings. "Do but; let' me see her an hour, madam/' dhe said. "You know my sincere admlraUon. Ia not that her voicef I Vow, she sings to perfection! And what-a singular.melody! Please : to eet wide.the door madan/' ;;> Mlt h the-.bravx aong of the brave men of Zealand, when from the walla of Ley den they drove away the Span* lards;" and madam stood In the open door, and called to her ' daughter, "Welt then,; Katherlne, begin again the aong of 'The Beggars oj[ the Sea.'" At the second verse, Mrs. Gordon rose and said, "Indeed, madam, I find my good breeding no match against such singing. And the tune la wonderful; it has the ring of trumpet*, and the roar of the wavea In It. Pray let us go at once to your daughter's." "At work are they; but If you mind not that, you are welcome Indeed." Then ahe led the way to the large living, or dining, room, where Katharine stood at the table cleaning the silver flagona and cups and plates that adorned the great oak sideboard. Joanna, who waa darning some fine linen, rose and made hejr respects with perfect composure. She had *epy little.liking, either for Mrs Gordon or her nephew; and. majjiy of their •^waya appeared to her utterly foolisn and not devoid of sin. But Katharine trembled and blushed, with pleasure Tkttd excitement, aSd Mrs. Gordon watched her with a certain kind of curious delight. Her hair was combed backword, plaited, and tied with a ribbon; her arms bare to the shoulders, her black bodice and crimson petticoat neatly shielded with a linen apron; and poised In one hand she held a beautiful silver flagon covered with raised figures, which with patient labor she had brought into shining relief, * Conversation was easily maintained. Madam Van Heemskirk knew the pedigree or the history of every tray or cup, and in reminiscence, and story an hour passed away very pleasantly indeed. Then Mrs. Gordon/after bidding madam an effusive good-by, turned suddenly and said, "Pray allow yom daughter to show me the many ornamenta in your parlor. The glimpse I had has made me very impatient to see them more particularly." Hie moment the parlor door had been abut, Mra. Gordon lifted Katherihe's face between her palms, and said: "Faith, child, I am almoat run off my head with all the fine things I have ' listened to , for your sake, bo you know who sent me here?" "I think, madam, Capt Hyde." "Paha! Why don you blush, and stammer, and lie about it? Now, Capt. Hyde wishes to see you; when, can you oblige him so much?" "I know- not To come to Madam Semple's is forbidden me by my father." "Oh, indeed!. Has your father forbidden you to walk down your garden to the river bankr. "No, madam." "Then, if Capt Hyde pees about Z o'clock, he might see you there?" •: "Three?" The word waa a question mfre than an asaent but Mrs. Gordon aaaumed the assent and did not allow Rath- •rine to contradict i t "And I prom* load to bring him a token from y e n - He waa exceedingly anxioua abput tkat :«atter.» -•>••'•• ."

When they reached the river bank a boat rowed by with two English soldiers, stopped just below them, and lay rocking on her oars. Then an officer in the stern rose and Katherlne saw Capt Hyde fling back from his left shoulder his cloak, in order to display tHe bow of orange ribbon on his breast Katherlne went back to the house as merry as a bird. She chatted of this and of that and sang snatches ot songs, old and new. And all the time her heart beat out ita own glad refrain, "My bow of orange ribbon, my bow of orange ribbon!" CHAPTER III. Joy in the House. "Honored gentleman, when will you pay me my money?" The speaker was an old man, dressed in a black coat buttoned to the anklea, and a cap of silk and fur, from beneath which fell a fringe of gray hair. The Inquiry was addressed to Capt. Hyde. He paid no attention whatever to it, but, gayly humming a stave, of "Marlbrook," watched the crush of wagons and pedestrians, in order to find a suitable moment to cross thernarrow street.,, "Honored gentleman, when will: you pay me my moneys?" -> The second inquiry elicited still- less attention. "I do not wish to make you more expenses, captain," and Cohen, following the impulse of his anxiety, laid his hand upon his debtor's arm. Hyde turned in a rage, and flung off the touch with a passionate oath. Then the Jew left him and walked slowly towards his store and home. He soon recovered the calmness which had been lost during his unsatisfactory interview with Capt. Hyde. "A wise man frets not himself,, for the folly of a fool;" and, having come to this decision, he entered his house with the invocation for its peace and prosperity on his lips. Soon there was a little stir In the street—that peculiar sense of something more than usual," which can make itself felt in the busiest thoroughfare— and Cohlen went to the door and looked out. "The Great Christopher" had ccme to anchor—Capt. Batavlus de Vrles. There was quite a crowd on the wharf. Some were attracted by curiosity; others, by the hope of a good job on the cargo; others, again, not averse to a little private bargaining for any curious or valuable goods the captain of the "Great Christopher" had for sale. Joanna Van Heemskirk had had a message from her lover, Capt. de Vries, and she was watching for his arrival. There was no secrecy in her love affairs, and It was amid the Joy and smiles of the whole household that she met her affianced husband. They were .one of those loving, sensible couples, for whom it is natural to predict a placid and happy life, and the first words of Batavlus seemed to assure it: "My affairs have gone well, Joanna as they generally do; and now I shall build the house, and we shall be married.^ Joanna laughed. "I shall just aay a word or two, also, about that, Batavlus.". "Come, come, the word or two was said so long ago. KatrtjlaUc mlja meiaje, what's the matter now, that you never come oncet" Katharine was etendtng at tbe open window, apparently ' watching the boAey-beea amoag the locust Wooma, but reattr perceiving something far I,,.J ,1 ";„!,« voad tUemr-a beat o.a tho river at th» ?nd of the garden.

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

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

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

It was a little triumph for the elder.

Hyde's attentions to Katherine. Without any words spoken on the subject, there was an understood compact between them to guard tho girl from any private conversation with hira; and yet two men with hearts full of suspicion and jealousy were not a match for one man with a heart full of love. In a moment, in the interchange of their hands in "a dance, Katherine clasped tifchtly a little note, and unobserved hid it behind the rose at her breast. The loving girl thought it no wrong to put it there; she even hoped that some kind of blessing or sanction might come through such sacred keeping, and she went to slc^p whispering to herself: "Happy I am.

The Beginning of Strifs. "My dear Dick, I am exceedingly concerned to find you in such a taking— moping about a Dutch schoolgirl! Pshaw! I had a much better opinion of ycu." " "I know I love her beyond everything, and that 1 am likely so to love her all my life." "Upon my word, Dick, lovo may live an age—if you don't marry it." "Let me make you understand fiat I wish to marry it." "Oh, Indeed, sir! Then the church doer stands open. Go in. I suppDse the lady will oblige you so far." "Pray, dear aunt, give me Jour advice. What is the first step to be taken?" "Go and talk with her father. The girl you think worth asking for; but if, is very necessary for ycu to know what fortune goes wita her beauty." "If her father refuses io give her to me—" "That is not to be thought of. You come of a noble race. You are not far from the heritage of a great title and estate. If you ask for her fortune, you offer far above its equivalent, sir." "Well, this suspense is intolerable, and not to be borne. I will go and end it. Give me your good wishes." "1 shall be impatient to hear the result." At Van Heemskirk's store Capt. Hyde aBked for the councillor and was taken to his office. "Your servant, captain. Is there any thing 1 can oblige you in, sir?" Joris asked the question because the manner of the young man struciv him as uneasy and constrained; and hie thought, "Perhaps he has come to borrow money." He was not, therefore astonished waen Capt Hyde answered: • "Sir, you can, indeed, oblige me, and that in a matter of the greatest moment." "If money it be, captain, at once 1 may tell you, that I borrow not, and I lend hot." "Sir, it is not money—in particular." "So?" "It is your daughter, Katherine." Then Joris stood up, and looked steadtfy at the suitor. His large, amiable face had become in a moment hard end stern; and the light In his eyes was like the cord, sharp light that falls from drawn steel. "My daughter Is not for you to name. Sir, It is a wrong to her, if you speak her name. Like to like, that is what I say. Your wife seek, There waa something vary impressive in the angry: sorrow of Joris. Yet Hyde persevered In his solicitation.. "Do but hear me, sir. I have done nothing contrary to the custom of people in my condition, and I assure you that with all nay soul I love your daughter. No man can love her better." • "What say you? How, then, 'do I love Iter? I who carried her— mijn wlUelammetje—- inthese arms before yet she could say to me, 'Fader!'" His wrath had been steadily growing, and suddenly striking toe desk a ponderous blow with his closed hand, be said with an unmistakable passion, "My daughter you shall not have. God in heaven to. himself take her ere such sorrow come to her and me!" "Sir, you are very uncivil; but to be plain with you, I am determined to marry your daughter if I can compass the matter in any way. It Is now, tben, open war between us; and so, sir, your servant." "Stay. To rue listen. Not one guilder will I give to my daughter, if—" "To the devil with your guilders! Dirty money made in dirty traffic—" "You lie." "Sir, you take un infamous advantage. You know, that, being Kafaerine's father. I will not challenge you." "Christi:s!" reared Joris, "challtr.£ a nio ore hundred times. A fool I would be to answer you. Life my God gave to mo. We'll, then, enly my God shall from me take it. See you these arms and hands? In taem you will be as the child of one year. Ere beyond my reason you move me, go!" and he strode to the dcor and flung it open with a passion that made every one ia tbe store straighten towards the two :1102. White with ra&e, and wifj his hand upon his sword-hilt, Capt. Hyde stamped his way through the crowded store to .the du3ty street. Then it struck aim that he had not asked the name of the man to whom Katherine was promised. He swore at himself for tac omission. Whether he knew him or not, he was determined to fight him. Now he must see Katherine before her father had any opportunity to give any orders regarding him. In the meantime Joris was suffering aa only such deop natures can suffer. Cspt. Hyde's proposal and his positive assertion that Katherine loved him, had fallen upen the father's heart with the force of a blow, and the terror of a sheck. . After Hyde's departure, he shut the cicor of his office, walked to the window, and stood there some minutes, clasping and unclasping his large hands, like a man full of grief and perplexity. Ere long he remembered his friend Semple. This trouble concerned him also, for Capt. Hyde was in a manner his guest; and, if he were informed of the marriage arranged between Kataerine and Neil Semple, he would doubtless feel himself bound in honor to retire. ' Joris found Semple and in a few short, £trong sentences, put the case before him. "My certis! When girls are auld enough for a lover, they are a match for any gray head. -I'm thankfu' man that I wasra' put in charge o' any o' them. I shall hae to speak my mind to Nlel, and likewise to Col. Gordon; and you canna put off your duty to your daughter an hour longer. Dear me! To think, Joris, o' a man being able to sit wi' the councillors 0' the nation, and yet no matci for a lassie o' seventeen!" As they walked homeward, the elder talked, and Joris pondered, not what was said, but the thoughts and purposes that were slowly forming in his own micd. When the evening meal was over Joris rose, and laying his hand on Katherine's shoulder said, "There is something to talk about. Sit down, Lysbet; the door shut close, and listen to me." It was Impossible tb mistake the stern purpose on her husband's face, and Lysbet silently obeyed the order, "Katherine, katrUntje,, mtja kind, this afternoon there comes to the store captain, among your own women.

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

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

A peach one-half or twothirds grown is semi-colored and If picked will go on and take out the color, but never matures, never gets flavor and never has size. The last fortyeight hours in the development of the peach Is what gives It the else, and It Is a very Important factor in eelling. A peach should be picked * s the greater portion of it turns t o yellow or cream white, depending upon the variety. It should be picked Immediately. It frequently happens S » t you -should go over an orchard every day, every tree, and take out every ripe peach.

Ay or & Son, the "Keeping Everlastingly . at It" advertising agents of Philadelphia, have found it necessary to move into new and larger quarters at -300-308 Chestnut Street in that city.. This announcement will Interest .many publishers, because Ayer & Son are so widely known as promoters of newspaper publicity. They began business thirty-three years ago, with two people and an annual business of ¢15,000. They now have one hundred and ninety employes, and have for yeara done the largest advertising business in the world.

Not only do they minister to the spiritual and Intellectual needs of the charges committed t o their care, but they also minister to their bodily needs. With so many children to take care of and to protect from climate and disease, these wise and prudent Sisters have found Peruna a never failing safeguard.

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

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

Then he returned to Broadway. 8ti» debating with himself, he came to a narrow road which ran to the river, along the southern side of Van Heemskirk'B house. Coming swiftly up it, as if to detain him. was Capt. Hyde. The two men looked at esch ot&r defiantly; and Neil said with a foloL meaning emphasis: "At your service, sir." • "&r. Semple, at your service,"—and touching his sword,—"to the very htlt, fii r» "§ir, yours to the same extremity." "As for the cause, Mr. Semple, here It.is;" and he pushed aside his embroidered coat in order to exhibit to Neil the bow of orange ribbon beneath i t "I wHI dye It crimson in your blood/' pai<J Neil passionately.

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

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

At "The King's Arms." The news of the duel spread with the proverbial rapidity of evil news. Batariu 8 heard the story from many a lip as he went home. He was bitterly indignant at Katherine, and hot with or to the Elder Semple would be suf- [haste and anger when he reached Van flcient Should she not say it?

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

Though wrapped in the warmest of furs, Olga shivered as she stood alone amid the silent, gloomy, wintry waste ef the forest Not long had the waited ere distinctly through the awful ttinnet came the clanging strokes of. midnight which KarJ rung upon the barrel of hit gun with a hammer to •warn bar of the time. With a. clear "but quavering voice the g4rl called out three timet: "Skogfrau, ia the aam* •of the Christ Child, I demand a gift of thee.

T U not a ribbon, or a jewel, but my Johan, my betrothed, I demand of thee at thy gift." "Johan, thy betrothed!" shrieked promised whatever I might ask, and I wi« have no other gift from thee.'r la vain, the old crone raved and euraed and begged the girl to take all t h e possessed, but not the youth. She tore her hair and beat her breast and threatened dire vengeance upon the girl and her betrothed, but the clanging of Karl's hammer gave Olga courage to repeat her demand: "Give me my Johan in the name of the Christ Child.** At last, the hag, worn out, said harshly: "Get thee home, and at the midnight, as the terrible, old hag ef the forest «aid. The Jul Tleden began with its merrymaking and feasting. In one week, on the Jul Afton, the Christmas Eve, the climax would be reached. Olga threw her doors wide open to the whole village, promising a wonderful surprise. Many thought the waa not very considerate on Johan't account, thinking the would better be going around with tearful eyes and ioud lamentations, but they ate freely of her good things none the lest. and a heavy bundle w a t torjt* J* among the a^mMOd-ro^ate^ara, An.iaid witehed bag; appeared in the doorway And screamed out above the -cnafu* aion: "GJrl, take , ^ gl/t offfJSejphrttt Child, but bewtre df my 4vangeance.

' r Johan wat quickly restored by co* (40ut libations of hot punch, and when able to stand on hit feet, Karl put his hand In that of Olga and gave the pastor a slngal. Forthwith, Olga took Johan for her husband, and when the final words were spoken, a tern- "Johan, thy betrothed!»' shrieked the hag. "Girl, thou art mad. Get thee gone, and at midnight on the Jul Afton I will bring thee a jewel such as none can boast, but not Johan. He la mine, 1 tell thee, mine forever. I will not give h)m up," and ahe raised her arm aa if to strike, but now Olga feared her n o t the hag. "Girl, thou art mad.

"In the name of the Christ Child I 1 stroke of midnight on the Jul Afton 1 will bring thee thy Johan," then with a bitter scream the disappeared, and Olga fell fainting in the snow, but the faithful Karl revived hw and brought her safely home. "Now, my sister, thou must prepare for the Jul Afton, the eve ot the great day whan the Christ Child waa born. At last the first stroke of midnight Olga turned pale, Karl stood at attea* t»on and tiie good paator grasped his holy book firmly in hit hand, The last stroke was still ringing in their ears when a ~k>lent gust of wind shook the house and the dragging of heavy chains over the roof brought terror to the Inmaiea The door was demand Johan of thee.

When a laxative is needed the remedy w h i & i i * given to thera to cleanse and sweeten and strengthen the internal organson which it acts, should be such as physicians would sanction, btechsuve^ta component parts are known to be wholesome and the remedy itself fr^e^from every objectionable quality.

' Syrup of F i g s Is the only remedy which acts gently, pleasantly and naturally without griping, irritating, or nauseating and which cleanses the system effectually, without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the old-time cathartics and modern imitations, and against which the children should be so carefully guarded.

Followed Natural Woodsman. When President Roosevelt waa oa a turkey hunt in the neighborhood of Bull Ron battlefield a couple of weeks ago he and a Mr. lfayden, with t guide, left the turkey tun and plunged into a stretch of woodland. After they had walked some miUvs Mr. Hayden said to the guide: "You've lost your way." ''Not a bit of it/' was the reply. "Oh, yet, you have. The sun it in the southwest at this time of day and wo should be going due east" Mr. Roosevelt said: "I always follow a man who steers in the woods by the sun or stars. I'll follow your leadership, Mr. Hayden." He did so and reached his destination in a bee line, to the guide's deep discomfiture. Only Trying Bait There are many ways of dabbling in the piscatorial art, but Abe Burlingame, who was up before Justice Rose for fishing on Sunday, gave a peculiar reason for his Sabbath operations. "You see, squire, I was experimenting on a new kind of bait for the-Beaver Creek fish. I tried It in the river and caught lota of fish, but It didn't work on Beaver Creek. "I was only experimenting with my bait when those people thought I was fishinV' he remonstrated. "That's certainly the best excuse I ever heard yet," replied the squire, and Burlingame was let off with a moderate fine as a reward for his loquacity.—East Liverpool Crisis. "DIAB MRS.

When I got home at night I was so worn out I had lo S) right to bed, and I was terribly blue and downhearted. I was irregur and the flow was scanty, and I was pale and had no appetite. I Ipid a girl friend who was taking your medicine how I felt, and she said I ought to take it too. So I got a bottle of Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and commenced to take i t It helped me right off. After the first few doses menstruation started and was fuller than lor some time. It seemed to lift a load off me. My back stopped achmgAnd I felt brighter than I had for months. I took three bottmss in alt IHOW I never have an ache or pain, and I go out after work and have a good time. I am regular and strong and am thankful to you for tbe change. u I recommend Lydia E.

Pinkhansr> Vegetable Compound cure others who suffer from womb troubles, Inflammation of the ovaries, kidney troubles, irregular and painful menstruation, nervous excitability, and nervous prostration; remember that it is Lydia E* Pinkham's Vegetable Com* pound that is curing women, and don't allow any druggist to •ell you anything else in its place. BUM Amanda T. Petterson, Box 131, Atwater, Minn*, says: "DEAB MRS.

I had taken doctor's medicine for many years but it did me no good. a Please accept my thanks for this most excellent medicine which is able to restore health taeuffering women."

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

Ammonia is of such great value in household matters that no housekeeper should fail to keep a supply always at hand. For instance, a few drops put into the bath water will make it most invigorating. Its uses in cleaning and removing grease are manifold. When a freshly oiled sewing machine has left yellow stains on the fabric- sewed, these can he removed by rubbing them Qver with a little liquid ammonia and then washing in the ordinary way. Again, a teaspoonful of ammonia in a cupful of water will clean gold or silver jewelry, and a few drops on the underside of a diamond will clean it immediately and increase its brilliancy. When acid has been spilt on cloth and has taken out the color, ammonia should be applied to the spot, after which a little chloroform rubbed on will in almost all cases restore the color. Clover Decoration. Very prettv and delightfully simple in effect is a water set in Austrian glass. There's a rather tall pitcher and six glasses, and the glass is frosted. Frosted glass is usually {>retty, but in this case it is unusualy pretty, because it forms so dainty a background for the decoration of three and four leaved clovers. These clovers are in enamel colorings, and every detail and every pretty shading of every leaf is carried out perfectly. Unfortunately it is not cheap, the figure being Adaptability.

The word goes not with, our name, Btitavlus; and what mean you, then? In one ,lford> speak.'! "Well, then, Neil Semple and Capf. Hyde have fought a duel. That is what comes of giving way to passion. I never fought a duel. No one should make me. It is a fixed principle with me." "Poor Neii! His fault, I am sure, it was not." "Joanna! Neil Is nearly dead,. If ho had boon In the right he would not be nearly dead. The Lord does not forsake a person who is in the right way." In the hail behind them. {Catherine stood. The pallor of her face, the hopeless droop of her white shoulders and arms, were visible in its gloomy shadows. Softly as a spirit she walked, as she drew nearer to them, d thfl Englishman? Is he hurt?" "Killed. He has at least twenty wounds. Till morning he will not live. It was the councillor himself who separated the men." "My good Jorls> it was like him." For a moment Katherine's consciousness reeled. The roar of the ocean which girds our life round was in her ears, the feeling of chill and collapse at her heart. But with a supreme will she took possession of herself, "Weak I will net be. All I w|ll.know. All I will suffer." And ' with these thoughts she went back to the room and took her place at the tabic. In a few minutes the rest followed. Batavius had anticipated madam's amazement and shock. He had felt a just satisfaction in the suffering he was bringing to {Catherine. But nothing had happened as he expected. The meal, instead of being pleasantly lengthened over such dreadful intelligence, was hurried and silent. It was some comfort ihat after it Joanna and he could walk in rnV garden and talk the affair thoroughly over. Katherine watched them away, and then she fled to her room. And oh, how she wept! She" took* from their hiding place the; tew letters her lover had written her, and she mourned over them as women mourn in such extremities. In the full tide ef her anguish,-Xysbet stcod at the door. She heara the inarticulate words of woe. and her heart ached for her child. She had followed her to give her comfort, to weep with her; but she felt that hour that Katherine was no more a child to be soothed with her mother's ki3s. She had become a woman, and a woman's sorrow had found her. It was near ten o'clock when Joris came home. His face was troubled, his clothing disarranged and bloodstained; and Lysbet never remembered to have seen him so completely exhausted. "Bram'" is with' Nell," he said, "he will rot be home." "And thou?" "1 helped them carry—the other. To the 'King's Arms' we took him." "Live will he?" "His heft lung is pierced through. A bad wound in the throat he has. But then, youth he has, and a great spirit, end hope. I wish not for his death, my God knows." "Neil,, what of him?" "Unconscious he was when I left him at his home. Does Katherine know?" "She knows." "How, then?" "O Joris, if in her room thou could have heard her crying! My heart for her aches, the sorrowful one!" "See, then, that this lesson s>e miss not. It is a hard one, but learn' it she must If thy love would pass it by, think this, for her good it is." The next morning was the sabbath, and many painful questions suggested themselves to Joris and Lysbet Van Heemskirk. Joris felt that he must not take his seat among the deacons until be had been fully exonerated of all blame of blood-guiltiness by the dcmlnie and his elders and deacons In full kirk session. Madam could hardly endure the thought ot the glances that would be thrown at her daughter, and the. prohebie>alights *ao would receive, so Katherfne'f piteous ^entreaty was listened to. and she, WAS allowed to remain at home:' The kirk that morm*ngawo»*fl been the pillory to her. She was unspeakably grateful for the solitude of the house, for space and silence, m which she could have the relief of unrestrained weeping. About the middle of , the morning, she heard Bram's footsteps. Beam had not thought of Katherfne'f staying, from kirk, and when s$u> confronted him, so tear-stained and-woe-bejone, his heart waa fall of pity for ier. With* In the last twenty-four hours he had begun to understand the temptation in which Katherine had been; begun to uniierstand' that love never .aakaj; yjfavwmr name?;.

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

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

A dog, a cat and a canary bird had been the objects of Mr. Wermerii amusements when off duty, be bad grown weary of the tnoniay at all three and wanted sometog iraman that he could love, pet perish—anfmals did not seem to __ the void In his heart. Moreover, a was a Jolly sort'lSf a man and felt e need at something to bubble and ever. His home environments were somewhat frigid. On the' contrary, Mra. Wertheimer a strict disciplinarian on the of duty, dogmatic and unyieldng in her disposition, and opposed sentimental displays; even her ilea when she forgot herself and dutged In such worldHness, were t-bKten. But she had gathered e idea at the Woman's club, during protracted and heated discussion on e subject, that it was the duty of every woman to assume the guardianship of at least one embryo human being, for the, purpose of training it according to the standard recogr. ized by the<!lub, in. the right way, offtrarse, and thud-save an immortal foul from contamination by the wickedness of the world, which was badly in need of malting over again. Besides that, the lady had noticed the waning influence' of the dog, cat and bird to keep Mr. Wertheimer at home tn the evenings. Hence, Mrs. Wertheimer thought a baby' in the bouse Bright accomplish a double object, to wit: A halo and a stay-at-home busfcaftd. > '• Kow It so happened that Mr. John Hopklna bad more children than he eouM care for; haM -a doaen of them reaching up lik^the^atapAof a ladder, all vigorously healthy and constantly clamoring for something to eat and wear. His wagea not increasing with family, it was very difficult to get brea4 Tb^add to liis misery, Hopkins committed the folly of nting him with a seventh, and, Year's ever, so as to be a surprise for him. When Mr. Wertheimer returned home after his day'a toil on the evening in question, he was amased to find sprawling on the floor, surrounded with soft pillows, a chubby-faced, blue-eyed infant, with little wisps of golden curb hanging around a shapely head. "Great Caesar?'* he exclaimed. "What's the row anyway? Have you started a menagerie?" "This is our baby," exclaimed Mrs. Wertheimer, relating her experience and intentions. "Well; now we'll have some fun and life around the house," said he, getting down on the floor to investigate the new plaything. "She's mighty pretty, anyway," was his decision. In a few moments he was mixed up with baby, dog and cat in such a noisy revel that his wife, with an expression of disapproval, came'in from the kitchen, where she had gone to prepare supper. "John, I didn't know you could make such a fool of yourself. Just look at your clothes, all lint and dust, and you are making more noise than the whole lot put together. Have you no consideration for the neighbors?" "Well, what did you get her for. if you don't want me to play with her?" And he laughed good-naturedly. "I cant just sit and look at her; that ain't enough." "I took her," responded his wife Beverly, "because it is our duty to make a home for some child ttfat didn't have a good one. You'll make such * fuss over this oae that it will soon be spoiled, and I want it to grow up gpodSand sensible. I have my own ideas about its training. Come, get up, supper's ready." For two weeks Mr. Wertheimer lived to- paradise, and, strange to say,, he never once went out in the evening. But. not so Mrs. Wertheimer. Babies nequirea good deal of case and atten- ,Uon; she had not ealnsssltii 0» this, and her idea of duty bacsane very did net make any difference; the baby bad wedged ia between them, and she was crowded out of her rightful, though unappropriated place. The matter rankled in Mrs. We*- theimer's mind, and the thought of getting rid of it grew in her'heart So it was, that one night when Mr. Wertheimer had hurried home, ready for a. romp before supper, there were no signs of life in the house; no barking dog, no singing bird, no crowing baby. "Where's baby?" he inquired of his stem-faced wife, with a sudden mis* trust in his heart "Oh, yes, it always -baby,-baby, nothing but baby/' answered the woman, petulantly. "I suppose you wouldn't have cared if I had caught my death of cold, or worked my fingers to the bone waiting on it, as long as you could have something to play with. I made up my mind last njght, after I had gotten up three times to attend to it, that I would not be imposed upon any longer, so this morning I took it to the Foundling Asylum and " "You—took—that—poor—child to an asylum?" stammered Mr, Wertheimer with sudden anger and a curl of contempt on his lips. "You took that little motherless child to a public in stitution after promising its. fathert that you would take its mother's place? I thought every woman hai some love in her heart, if not for her husband, then at least for a helpless babe, but you—a nice religion you have, with all your prating about Christian duty and charity—it is despicable." Mrsi Wertheimer was appalled at this Outburst from her husband who had always been kind and gentle, and his contemptuous look and bitter language frightened her. Womanlike, She began to cry, at which her husband' softened and looked surprised. It was the first time he had ever seen tears in her eyes. Could it be possible that she had a heart? "Martha, I said more than I should have; pardon me. Never mind about the baby, it's only one more disappointment and I will live through it." With that he turned away, but his wife,' whose eyes were opened to the full significance of what she had done, called him back and putting her hands upon his shoulders looked him full In the face, with a strange, unwonted expression in her eyes. and 1 will go tbls moment and get the child again." The woman's habitual reserve melted under the tender caress of her husband. "Dear wife, 1 have always loved :eu, but it seemed to me that you did hot love me, you were so—no, I will no* say-it, because I know now that I was wrong. My heart is big enough for both you and the, baby, so- let us go after it before we do anything else." But the baby was not there, another visit," said Mrs. Wertheimer, with many misgivings. But when she had entered, she heard a baby's soft gurgle, and a«rs> enough, there was her baby on the bed In an inner room, as sweet and as dfmnled as ever, making the beat of H in her strange quarters. Mrs. Wertheimer told her story and begged Mrs. Harris to let her have the baby tack.

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

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

To the children who today go to school and are taught in well explained lessons it would seem strange if their grandmas should tell them over again the funny way that examples were given when they went to. school. In those days children had to think harder and were given much less help with their studies than they are now. During your grandma's schooldays she never had racks of beads and nice sticks as objects by which addition and subtraction could be made clear. She never had trial examples shown by diagrams at the beginning of each new portion of arithmetic, but had to put on her thinking cap and study them out. Now, here is one example, something like those grandma had to work, and when you see it try to Set the answer, and if you cannot ike it to her, and it is safe to say she will tell you how to commence to work it: My grandfather is 112 years of age, and my father is just sixtyfour. I am not as old as my grandfather by eighty-two years. What is the difference in years between me and my father? Omelet Cooked In a Hat State that yon are about to cook an omelet; then you break four eggs in a hat, place the hat for a short time over the flame of a candle and shortly after produce s an omelet completely cooked and quite hot.

One day during the harvest King George III. rode by himself into the country. He saw a woman working alone. His majesty asked her why she was working alone. She said that her companions had gone to see the king, as they had heard he was in the neighborhood. Then he asked her why she had not gone to see the king. She said, "I have five children to provide for, and I cannot afford to lose a day's work." The king put some money into her hand and said, "Tell your companions when they come back that inj'or Sale* Oummings cutting box, carriers, elevators etc., suitable for engine or horse power.

The eggs were empty ones, the contents having been previously extracted by being drawn through a small aperture. But to prevent the company from suspecting this the operator should, as if by accident, let a full egg fall upon the table, which, breaking, induces a belief that the others are also full.

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

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

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

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

This satisfaction finds frequent expression in words. People who have been cured seem to take pleasure in telling of it. Take what Mrs. Lydia Parker says for example: "I was trouble with Back Ache," says Mrs. Parker. "And all the time when I whs stooping over a stitch would take me in the back, and I could not straighten up for a while. "I sent and got a couple of boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and before I had finished taking the first, the stitch had gone and it has not been back since."

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

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

Wound* sd apes have died crying, and apes have wept over their young ones slain by hunters. A chimpanzee trained to carry water jugs broke one and fell a-crying, which proved sorrow, though it wouldn't mend the jug. Bats, discovering a young one drowned, have been moved to tears of grief. A giraffe which a huntsman3* rifle had injured began to cry. Sea lions weep for the loss of their young. Gordon Gumming observed tears trickling from the eyes of a dying elephant. And even an orang outang, when deprived of its mango, was so vexed that it took to crying. There can be little doubt, therefore, that animals do weep from grief or pain or annoyance.

Aa the door opened, he slowly turned his head. . When he saw who .was really there, he uttered a low cry i of joy,—a cry pltHnl in its shrill weakness. In a moment Katherine was close to h|a side. She kissed hts hands and face, and whispered p* his lips the sweetest wordaof love had. fidelity. Hyde was in a rapture. Me mar 'till, speechless, motionless, waftwng and listening fc> her. ' Hyde could speak little, but there we# ho need of speech,.- Had/ he not nearijr died for her? Was,not his very h^lplesspess a plea beyond the power of words. And so quickly, to Quickly, went the happy moments,!, Ere Katherine had half said, "Move thee," Mrs. Gordon reminded her that it was near the noon. "Then we must part, my Kathorlne, for a little. When will you come again?" This was a painful question, because Katherine felt, that, however sie might excuse herself for the unforeseen stress of pity that all unaware had hurried her into this Interview, she knew she could not find the same apology for one deliberate an»f. ?;•$• arranged. "Only once more," Hyde plead*\1. *'I had, my Katherine, so many t'airgs to say to you. In my joy, I forgot all. Come but once more. Upon my honor, I promise to ask Katherine Van Heemskirk only this once. To-morrcw? 'No/ Two days hence, then?" "Two days hence I will come again. Then no more/' He smiled at her, and put out his hand3; and she kteit again by his side, and kissed her "farewell" eu his lip3, And, as she put on again her cloak and veil, he drow a small volume towards him, and with trembling hands tore out of it a scran of paper; and gave it to her. Under the lilac hedge that night she read It, read it over and over,—the bit o-: paper made almost warm and sentient by Phoedria's tender petition to his beloved: "When you are in company v.ith that other man, behave as if you weru absent; but continue to lovo me by day and by night; want me, dream of me. expect me, think of me, wish for me, delight in me, be wholly with me: in short, be my very soul. *a I am yeurs," CHAPTER Vlil.

A few strong, plain dictates had been set before Katherine as the law of her daily life; and she knew, beyond all controversy, when she disobeyed them. A' man has defined happiness as be! In. n e r o w * heaTt, she called the sin lng known by* everybody and knowing %iie b a d determined to commit by its everybody, and being invited every- m o r t unequivocal name. *T shall make where and going nowhere.

This was the positon she admitted, but every woman is Eve in some hour of her life. The law of truth and wisdom, may be in her ears, but the apple-of debine finally rested on a rock where it light hangs within her reach; and, could be of no use as a means of with a full understan4ing*of the conse- With an air that plainly said, "This is the maiden for whom I have fought and suffered; is she not worthy of my devotion?" he introduced her to his friend, Capt. Earle. But, even as they spoke, Earle joined Mrs. Gordon, at a call from her; and Katherine noticed tbat a door near which thty stood was open, and that they went into the room to which it led, and that other voices then blended with theirs. But these things were as nothing. She was with her lover, j alone for a moment with him; aud Richard had never before seemed to her half so dear or half so fascinating. "My Katharine;* he said, "I have one tormenting thought. Night and day it consumes me like a fever. I [ hear that Neil Semple is well. They will make you marry him, my darling." "No; that they can never do." "But I suffer in the fear; I suffer a thousand deaths. If you were only my wife, Katherine!" "Oh, my lovo, my love!" "Sec how I tremble, Katherine. Life scarcely cares to inhabit a body so weak. If you refuse me I will let it go. If you refuse me, I shall know tbat in your heart you expect to marry Nell Semple—the savage who has made me suffer unspeakable agonies." "Never will t marry him, Richard, never, never.

The next morning was one of perfect beauty, and Katherine aweke with a feeling of joyful expectation.. She paid a very short visit to the mantuamaker, and then went to Mrs. Gordon's. A cccch was in waiting, and in a few minutes they stood together at Hyde's door. There was a sound of vcices within; and, when they entered, Katherine saw, with a pang of disappointment, a fine, soldierly looking man in full uniform sitting by Richard's side. But Richard appeared to be in no way annoyed by his company. He was looking much better, and wore a cc amber gown of maroon satin, with deep laces showing at the wrists ana oosom; ^ P w « — i n i j jiii ii'iiinii i MI »i in mtwylWWiwwwwy so deeply hounden?

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

In the middle of the afternoon of the day before the marriage, there was the loud rat-tat-tat of the brass knocker, announcing a visitor. It was Mrs. Gordon, and she nooded and laughed in a triumphant way that very quickly brougnt Katnerme to~her side. "My dear, I kiss you. You are the top beauty of my whole acquaintance." Then, in a whisper, "Richard sends his devotion. And put your hand in my muff; there is a letter. And pray give me joy; I have just secured an invitation. I asked the councillor and madam point blank for It. Faith, I think I am a little of a favorite with them! How is the young Bruce? My dear, if you don't make him suffer, I shall never forgive you. Alternate doses of hope and despair, that would be my prescription." Katherine shook her head. "On my wedding day, as I left Richard, this he \ald to me, 'My' honor, Katherine, is now^ in your keeping.' By the lifting of c%e eyelash, i will not stain it." "My dear, you are perfectly charming. You always convince me that I am a better woman than. I imagine myself. I shall go straight to Dick, and tell him how exactly proper you are. Really, you have more perfections than any one woman has a right to." "To-morrow, If I have a letter ready, you will take it?" "I will run the risk, child. Now, adieu: Return to your evergreens and ribbons." And so,; lightly humming Katherine's favorite song, she left the busy house. Before daylight the next morning, Batavius had every one at his poet The ceremony was to be performed in the Middle Kirk, and he took care that Joanna kept neither Dominie de Ropde nor himself waiting.

XXX Sympathy. When we ourselves suffer we feel that we have an imperative claim on others for relief, if relief is In their power, or for kndness at their bands. if relief is not; and when we imagice the suffering of another, we cannot help feeling the same claim come back to us, umtftered in force. Probably there are none who have no such feeling; probably there are few who try deliberately to suppress or resist it, but probably there are many who try to satisfy it in some easy, inadequate way. The'easiest way is that of money-giving "charity," and if money could extinguish all needs, if what we call "charity" could discharge all claims of man upon man for help and kindness, it is quite possible that the giving might be raised to an abounding sum. But moneygiving "charity," even when it is well directed, can go a very little way toward dealing with misfortune, distresses and sufferings, as we would wish to have them dealt with if they cam© upon ourselves, and a great part of such easily rendered "charity" is so ill-directed as to do more harm than good. The help that is wanted most often from man to man is cot out of the pocket, but straight from the heart; it is the help of knowledge, judgment, experience; it is help from the stronger and better instructed to the ignorant and weak; it is helpfulness toward self-help; it is encouragement and cheer; it is teaching and counsel; it is sympathy made manifest; it is fellowship and hearty good will. It calls for the giving of time, care, thought, effort; it may interrupt cur occupation, it may break in on our pleasures; its claims may often be disturbing to our comfortable ease. Yet if we feel toward our fellows as we would have them feel toward us, we cannot wish to be free from such claims. From "A Primer of Right and Wrong," by J. N. Lamed. '•*" v ^¾- +\t «%, «^V Watchfulness. Watch against the indulgence of any wrong temper. Avoid ruffling your own spirit or disturbing the comfort of those about you. Be cot put out if others do not act always as you wish Lay your account for many contrary wines; check ourself at once when you find passion rising; keep it down with a high hand. Be not satirical or sullen or silent, when something is amiss. Try to overcome that pettishness which is often worse than sudden anger—a sitting still for half an hour without saying a word —the unkind look, the refusal to be pacified, the sharp, curt "Yes" or "No." Nor is it fitting that a Christian should manifest a cold, freezing manner. Natural temperament has much to do with this; but surely it is more Christ-like to manifest love as well as feel it. An icy chillness deadens sympathy and cuts up by the root many of life's purest pleasures; it hinders usefulness and puts a stumbling block in the way of y o n g Christians. Far better is it to live in Italy than Siberia. The warm sun of kndness is better every way than the frost of harshness and indifference.— Evcrard. «^p» «^fc «i^fc Divine Harmony. All nature speaks the attributes of God. Whose vast domain of matter and of mind Accords forever with His holy will. All life is an expression of His love, All seeming death is birth to higher life. All discord is the fragment of a scale. Which, had man the power to comprehend. Would be replete with harmony divine. XXX All for the Master. To "do all things in the name of Jesus" is the lesson of a life; do not be angry with yourselves, nor despair of ever learning It, because thou art slow to learn the first few syllables. When thou hast learned t o da all things to Jeans, it will shed pleasure over all things, softhes3 over all hard, things, peace over all trial and woe and suspense. VLen will life be glad, when thou livest to Jesus; and how sweet death, to die in Jssus; with Him. and to Him. and in Him, to live for e*er more.—B. B. Pusey. X X X The Crown of Patience.

" Her case had baffled the skill of some of the most noted physicians. One of her worst troubles was chronic constipation of several years' standing. "Shealso was passing through that most critical period in the life of a woman— change of life. In June, 1895, I wrote to you about her case. Yon advised a course of Peruna and Manalin. which we at once commenced, and have to say it completely cured her. She firmly believes that she would have been dead only for these wonderful remedies. "About the same time I wrote you about my own case of catarrh, which had been of 25 years' standing. At times I was almost past going. I commenced to use Peruna according to your instructions and continued its use for about a year, and it has completely cured me. 44 Your mtnedies do ail thmt you claim tor them, mod even more. Catarrh cannot exist where Peruna is taken according to directions* Success to you and your remedies," John 0. Atkinson, In a letter dated January L 1900. Mr. Atkinson says, after five years* experience with Peruna: "i witt ever continue to speak a good word for Peruna, in my rounds as a trareUng man I am a walking advertisement for Peruna and have induced many people during the past year to use Peruna with the most sathtactory results, lam still cured of catarrh,** John O, Atkinson, Box 271, independence* Nlo, When old age comes on, catarrhal diseases come also. Systemic catarrh is almost universal in old people. This explains why Peruna has become so indispensable to old people Peruna is their safe-guard.
